GENTHEMEN, Ihasten to acknowledge the receipt of a requisition, signed by more than Nine Thousand Electors of South Lancashire, inviting me to become a Candidate for the seat now vacant by the elevation of Lord Erancis Egerton to the peerage. _ _ .• To represent a constituency distinguished by its numbers, its industry, and its intelligence, and by its great influence on the character and policy of the nation, I esteem one of the highest honours to which a man may attain. With feelings of the greatest pleasure I answer your call, and offer myself as a Candidate for Your suffrages. When I addressed you at the period of the Election in the spring of 1844, I avowed myself the strenuous advocate of per fect freedom of trade. I stated that my experience as a mer chant enabled me to say that it was a vital question ; that it involved the freedom, the prosperity, and probably the peace of Since alit time I have, to the best of my ability, constantly supported the principles I then avowed, an d i t will be a conti nual source of gratification to me to reflect that I have given my humble exertions in aid of the free traders of England, by whose reasoning, energy, and prudence the most eminent pub lic men have been converted, the interests of classes, and the prejudices of party, have been overthrown, and one of the greatest, the wisest, and I hope one of the most enduring re forms has been peacefully achieved. I am well aware that other important measures will shortly engage a portion of that public attention which has lately been almost exclusively concentrated upon the question of Free land must be wisely and humanely governed, and we must diligently seek and promptly apply the true remedies for the grievances of which that country has long complained. She must no longer with justice refer to the inequality of either her Parliamentary or her Municipal Franchise—in fact, Ireland must be governed as if no sea were between us. Though much has been gained, our labours will not termi nate until the last fetter upon commerce and industry shall have been removed. Our opponents are powerful and fertile in resources, and it is possible that some of them may not be over scrupulous as to the means of arresting our progress. Vigi lance, the price of freedom, continues to be the first duty of the representatives of the people. However deficient I may be in ability, I pledge myself zealously and constantly to advocate your interests, which are those of the country and mankind. Above all things, we must promote the intellectual progress of the people, and so consolidate the triumphs of industry, as we widely diffuse the blessings of a sound education. We shall thus, I hope ? be enabled, at no distant period, whilst we improve the condition of the people of England, to set an ex ample to the world of the right use of power and wealth in the extension of freedom and the preservation of peace. I have the honour to be, Your faithful servant, WILLIAM BROWN. Richmond-hill, Liverpool, July 1, 1846. Observe that the Signature of the proprietor "G. C.

GEORGE'S-CRESCENT, LORD-STREET, LIVERPOOL FORMER CONNEXION OF GREAT BRITAIN WITH THE CONTINENT. — The Goodwin Sands were the brood lands and fruitful possessions of Earl Godwin, father of King Harold, nearly down to the Conquest ; and, though we bare no historical trace of the fact, yet is is geologically and physically certain, that this island once formed but an appendage to the Continent, being joined to it by an isth mus where now are the Straits of Dover. The chalk ridge, which has been abraded by the current and the ac tion of the tides betwixt Shvkspeare's Cliff and the simi lar formations of the high grounds above Boulogne, can still be traced by the sounding - line; and Verstegan feels persuaded, that we should never have required Edgar's prudent care in offering such liberal rewards for the extir pation of wolves, unless those ferocious animals could have found a passage into the island by land, as no men could have been so senseless as to have imported them.— Monthly Prize Essays. _ FORTUNES MADE - AND LOST.—The rise in the value of the great staple, iron, has been one of the features of the present railway movement ; but this was little more cted, seeing the close connexion of the two in terests. The depression that before existed in this blanch of trade, and the low prices which ruled, soon induced buyers to operate freely ; and the lever being applied both in London and Liverpool, a rise shortly followed, exceed ing in extent the greatest anticipations of the holders. From the success of the speculation in iron, many men .(L me I will fa crippled fortunes have established themselves in a permanent position. Some few have suffered from the good fortune others have attained, by a movement of which they were the originators, and others, having cleared the market at the lucky moment, have risen from small means, and retired with a comfortable competency. Nothing can better illustrate this statement than the fact, that a bankrupt Scotchman, who came to London two years back as a jobbing commission-agent, has gone "t' other side o' the Tweed" with about £30,000, the pro ceeds of the little business he transacted in iron, rather preferring to lice in quiet_ enjoyment than trouble his mind further with the anxiety of con Tie reverse of the picture can'beexiAlied, - and - rTOTin solitary instance.

ERSKINE IN COURT. —A witness was put into the box, who travelled to get orders. This description of per s ms go indiscriminately by the name of riders and tra vellers, but most affect the latter. " You are, I under stand, a rider ?" " A traveller, sir," was the reply. " Pray," said Erskine, " arc you addicted to that failing usually imputed to travellers ?" Another of the fraternity having baffled his cross-examination, he suddenly re marked, "You were born and bred in Manchester, I per ceive." The witness admitted that it was so. " I knew it said Erskine carelessly, " from the absurd tie of your neckcloth." The traveller's weak point was touched, for he fancied that his dress had been perfect; and the coun t sel gained hi s o bj ec t—th e man ' s presence o f m i n d was gone. When induced to make a personal observation on a witness, Erskine divested it of asperity by a tone of jest and good humour. In a cause at Guildhall, brought to recover the value of a quantity of whalebone, a witness was called of impenetrable stupidity. There are two de scriptions of whalebone, of different value, the long and the thick. The defence turned on the quality delivered, and that an inferior article had been charged at the price ofthe best. A witness for the defence baffled every at tempt at explanation by his dulness. He con founded thick whalebone with long in such a manner that Erskine was forced to give it up. " Why, man, you don't seem to Ilong. Now, I'll tell you the difference. You are a thick healed fellow, and you are not a long-headed one !" In a cause at Guildhall, Mingay spoke of one Bolt, a wbarfin. regularly appeared as plaintiff or defendant in the cause paper of the sittings atter term, in very harsh terms, for his dishonest and litigious spiiit. " Gentleman," replied Erskine, " the counsel has taken unwarrantably liberties with my client's good name. He is so remarkably of an opposite character, that he goes by the name of Bolt upright.

We have been favoured with our usual .copy of the ex cellent " Commercial Glance," for the six months of the present year, published by Mr. Burn, of Manchester, wh:ch, we are sorry to perceive, does not exhibit the ex port trade in this district in quite so favourable a position as it held in the corresponding period of last year. The falling off will be best shown, by comparing a few of tilt principal items of the two half years Under the h end of " cotton yarns, the gross exports, 816, were 64,159,368 pounds; whilst, in during the past half year, of 9,467,017. Considering that this is the least perfected of our manufactures, employing the least amount of manual labour, this increase is not a favourable sign of the increased prosperity of the country. Under each of the items, " cotton thread," " damask and diapprs," and " cambrics and muslins," a slight decrease is exhibited; and a slight increase in the insignificant items, "dimities," and "!awns and lenos." In the im portant article of " plain calicoes," there is a decrease shown of 8,117,111 yards ; the exports being, first six months of 1845, 300,038,150 yards ; and, first six months of 1846, 291,921,039. There is a much larger, and more important decrease, in the article, " printed and dyed calicoes, amounting to 25,251,365 yards ; the total ex ports under this head being, in first six months, 1845, 153,338,502 yards ; and, in same period this year, 128,087,137 yards. The decrease is. therefore, a sixth of the whole trade. There is a large decrease, also, under the several heads of " hosiery," " shawls and handker chiefs," " lace," " tapes," and '• unennmerated cotton goods," and a trifling increase in ticks. On the whole, the falling off is considerable. In examining the countries whose trade with ni has fluctuated during the last six months, we shall confine our observations to the two main articles of plain calicoes, and printed and dyed calicoes. Of the first of these articles, we find that, to the Brazils, the increase this half year has been, in round numbers, six million yards ; whilst, to Buenos Ayres, Monte Video, &c., there has been a decrease of 3,200,000 yards. Our trade to British North America has fallen off from 8,872,626 yat ds, in the half year 1845, to 7,483,318, in 1846. To Chili and Peru, there is an increase of over 2,000,000 yards; Gibraltar has fallen off 4,000,000 yards, or nearly half its trade ; Portugal and Madeira, on the other hand, have increased 5,000,000 yards, which is half of their last years imports. To India, in 1845, our exports were 71,213,321 yards ; this year it has been 85,200,555, or an increase of nearly 14,000,000 yards. China, on the other hand, took from us last year, 66,647,343 yards; against 42,659,601 this year, showing a falling off of more than a third. To the United States there has been a decrease of 2,600,000 yards. To other countries enumerated, the fluctuation is not material. In printed cilicoes, we have again the singular feature of an increase of nearly 4,000,000 yards exported to Brazil ; and a decrease of above 3,000,000 yards to Buenos Ayres, Monte Video, &c. We are not at all aware how this can occur. The two markets are bracketed together, from which a suspicion may arise, that the difference has been caused by some change of the customs regulations as to the entries. British North America has decreased her purchases about one-tenth ; Chili and Peru has decreased from 12,873,751 yards, in 1845, to 7,109,229 yards, in 1846 ; Colombia took 3,703,585 yards, in 1845, and only 1,514:410 in 1846. To Gibraltar, there is a falling off of 1,400,000 yards ; to India, of 3,600 000 yards ; China, 300,000 yards. Naples and Sicily have increased nearly 1,000,000 yards; the Hanse Towns have fallen off 3,400,000 yards ; Portugal, Madeira, &c., have increased 1.500.000 yards; Sardinia and Tuscany decreased 1,700,000 yards; Turkey and the Levant over 5,000,000 yards; and the United States about 500,C00 yards. To other countries the variation is not striking. To afford an idea of the profits of manufacturers and spinners, we have given the following as the prices of 40 in. 60 shirtings on the Ist of the month in the two half years, viz.—ln 1845: January, 9a. 6d., February, 9s. 6d., March, 9s. 3d., A pril, 9s 3d., May, 9s. lid , June, 9s. lad., July, 9s. lid. In 1846: January, Bs. 6d., February, Bs. 6d., March, Ba. 40., April, Bs. 3d., May, Bs. 3d., June, Bs. lid., July, Bs. lid., being an average reduction of a shiling a piece, or more than ten per cent. in the lat ter half year. The price of yarns, of the ordinary num bers, have undergone a similar decline. The prices of cot ton appear, however. to have' ruled higher during this than the correfponding period of the last year. The trade, therefore, whilst it may have been remunerating for the manufacturer, has been against the spinners. The quan tity spun during the first half year, 1845, was 760,135 bags; same period in 1846, 677,860—decrease, 82,275 bags. The weekly average of 1845 was 29,235 ;of 1846, it was 26,071—weekly decrease, 3,164 bales.

THE PROTECTIONIST AND THE SUGAR QUESTION. —The Times, of yesterday, states confidently that the protectionists intend to offer a strenuous opposition to the government proposition to equalize the duties on British Colonial and Foreign Slave-grown Sugar. Our contem porary adds, '• Rumour points out Mr. Gladstone as the leader whom they have what they consider the good for- tune to secure, and whom they think no very ambition to design for that splendid but difficult post which a Peel, and after him a Russell, had just before bdicated.'•' It is, however ; very easy to'invent rumours and we suspect this of the Times is aninventi COMMERCIAL VALUE OF INSECTS.-' portanc insects, commercially speakin, Great Britain does not pay le han 1,000,000 of ses of the tiny insect.

At the sale by auction after the show, seven short-horned bulls, calved before the Ist of January, 1844, were sold for £172 155., being an average of about £24 13s. each. Nine calved since that period were sold for £263 lls., averaging £29 ss. 9d. each. Three in each class were bought in. The highest price obtained in the first class was £37 165., for a bull three years and two months old, belonging to Lord Hastings, by whom it was bred. The lowest price was 20 guineas for a bull three years and six months old. The highest price obtained in the second class was £56 14s for a bull two years and 23 weeks old, belonging to Mr. Joseph Atkinson, of Embleton, near Alnwick ; the lowest price 13 guineas for a bull one year and one month old.

From the point on the 40th parallel of north latitude, where the boundary laid down in existing trea ties and conventions between Great Britain and the United States terminates, the line of boundary between the territories of Her Britannic Majesty and those of the United States shall be continued westward along the said 49th parallel of north latitude to middle of the channel which separates the continent from Vancouver's Island and thence southerly, through the middle of the channel, and of Fuca's Straits, to the Pacific Ocean, pro vided, however, that the navigation of the whole of the said channel and straits, south of the 49th parallel of north latitude, remain free and open to both parties.
