BERT C. JOSE/I:EIECUTIoN OP ♦ POWER Ur ATIORNE'

MISOAD.
A question was raised in this case as to the validity of a
power of attorney which had been executed by John Burt,
one of the parties in the suit, while resident in Van Die-
men's Land. The power was witnes.ed by two persons.
' The signature of Mr. Burt was also verified before a police
magistrate, and there was a mourns' certillexte verifying
the stgature of the magistrate.
Mr. Dealer, who appeared for some of the parties, con-
tended that the execution of the power was sufficiently
attested.

Mr. Steers appeared for other parties.
The Vioe•Chaneellor said that a notarial certificate was
of no value in England, although it was received in evidence
in France and in our colonies. In this case there were two
attesting witnesses to the power of attorney, audit would be
rateraely, in order to render it valid, to have the signatures
of the witnesses, or tither of them, verified by some person
in this country.

COTTON.-I.lvitaroot, MARCH G.—The sales to-day
are estimated at 10,000 balm of which 600 are taken for
export, and 2,600 on speculation. The sales include 700
Penmen and Maranham, at sid. to Md. ; 1,000 Egyptian, at
Md. to 61d. ; and 2,600 Surat, MIL to did. ; the total ka-
pott* since Thursday are 10,000 bales. The market closed
firmly, prices of all kinds remaining without any change.
MANCHE:BITR. Disown 6.—The demand for cotton yarns
continues steadily to improve, and priers were a shade
dearer again to-day, with very heavy engagements on the
hands of spinners. The price of water twist is rather mon
than id. advance on the quotations of this day week, and
40s mule is id. higher, and difficult to be bought. In
some cases buyers hesitate at giving the high rates now de-
manded for yarn, but with the advance of—cotton, and the
large demand, spinners are pretty much in a position to
dictate their own terms. The demand for cloth, though
large, is not sufficient to place manufacturers in the envia-
ble position of spinners as to prices. Most kinds of cloth
are going off well, hut the production is large, and hitherto
sellers have not been able to command the market suffi.
ciently to get a rise in proportion to the increased cost of
cotton, and those who are working from material bought
t current rates are relatively in a worse no•ition as regards
profit than they were some weeks ago. Mostkinds of cloth
aro more difficult to buy at last week's rates, except heavy
domestics, but there is little difference no.i.inally in tho
quotations of to-day as compared with last Saturday.
WOOLLEN CLOTII.—Lzmn, MARCH 6.—We have
had a better market to-day than we bad on Tuesday, but
not equal to last Saturday's, nor has the business done been
an sverageoue. There is only a very moderate business
doing io the warehouses.

HARDWARE —BIRMINGHAM, MAUCH 6.—There is a
slight improvement in trade hero since our last report; the
orders received by the factors from their travellers are said
to be larger, and of such a character generally as to indi-
cate an improvement in the home trade. The brass-
founders, lamp-makers, and indeed most of those engaged
in the staple trades are tolerably busy for the time, hut in
very few branches are these orders before hand ; upon the
whole, trade here is up to the average, although not equal
to last year. Differences have unfortunately sprung up be-
tween the masters having the Board of Ordnance contract
for the new rifles and the workmen; there ere several ver-
sions of the affeir, but the following, which appears in the
!firming/tam Journal of to-day, conveys the most correct
summary of the facts : " The contracts for the 18,000 new
rifles, which have been received by five of the gunmakers
here for the Board of Ordnance, have not, as yet, been de-
livered out to the workmen. The cause of the delay ix said
to arise from the men demanding an increase of price.
Now, as there has been considerable misapprehension on
this point, to which a contemporary has hberally contri-
buted, it may he well to place the matter clearly before
the public. IVhen the intimation was received here that
government wished tenders to be sent in for the contract.,
the finishers and stock. rs immediately afterwards assembled,
and agreed to claim the price fixed in 184 i, ley Mr. Lovell,
the Assistant Inspector of Small Arms, and which they had
receded from only fur one year. Accordingly, this decision
was made known to the contractors by printed circular at
least six days before they sent in their tenders, in which
the workmen also stated that 'should you (the person
tendering) not successful in obtaining a contract, we
pledge ourselves not to work for any one under that price,
be the terms of his contract what they may.' As a merlon
for this increase of price, or rather a return is the old
pric , the men state that the riding of the barrel and the !
complicated new ' sight ' would increase their labour and
huhilities, as compared with the line gum. No exception
was taken to their demands before the tenders were rent in,
but immediately chat the contracts were received the firms
which were fortunate enough to obtain them declined to
accede to the terms. They contend that the increase,
which is about 12} per cent., is too much, and wish it to
be reduced : but the workmen argue, on the other hand,
that even although the price was as unjustifiable ex they
believe it to be equitable, yet that in the face of the pledge
they gave to all the masters tendering, that they would
not work under the price stated, they woud be guilty of
gross unfairness to those who were unsuccessful in ob-
taining the contracts. These, then, are the tact., so fat as
we have been able to ascertain them from documents placed
in our hands. The dispute is an unfortunate one, and ought
to be settled amicubly,and that, too, as promptly as possible.
We may state farther, that it is understood that no further
delay will take place in giving out the work, as orders
have been received front the Board of Ordnance to proceed
with the contract. This is the rumour. The operatives
state that every one of the contractors knew the price to
which the workmen agreed before they tendered, and they
are of opinion that the contract has been declined in conse-
quence of a mistake ru omitting an item from the calcula-
tions on which the tender was made. They also most
emphatically deny that ' there are other than Birmingham
interests directing the counsels of the men.' they con-
sider it an unjust because unfounded imputation ; and wish
to free themselves from any prejudice the statement might
create against them. There is one serious point connected
with the gun trade, which is deserving not merely of the
attention of the firms engaged in it, and of the workmen, but
of the public of Birmingham and the neighbourhood gene-
rally. It has DO count lion whatever with the dispute, which
merely concerns the finishers and stockers, but affects ge-
nerally
the whole trade. It is well known to every one
connected with the gun trade that in 1814 a gun barrel and
lock manufactory was established by the Board of Ord-
nance at Enfield, in Middlesex ; but, through the activity
of some of the leading gentlemen connected with the town,
the board came to ' the determination of not employing
the Ordnance small arms manufactory for any other object
than that of the repair of arms.' It has, however, been
long the practice—not to make guns there—but locks, and
undertake certain operations Connected with the making of
the barrel. lint we understand that experiments are now
being made with a view to extend this manufacture of bar-
rels, and to complete them. That this government compe-
tition, if eirried to any extent, will seriously injure many
thousands engaged here and in the neighbouring district in
the trade, there cannot be any question. The principle of
the government competition is bad, more especially when
there cannot be a doubt that now, as in 1816, the Ordnance
manufactory is carried on at a for to the country. At all
events, it is to be hoped that some steps will be taken by
those more immediately interested in the trade to prevent
any undue interference with its legitimate operations."
From the district we learn that some disputes have arisen be-
tween the masters and the operative carpet weavers of Kid-
derminster. Matters have not yet, however, proceeded to
extremities; and it is hoped that the differences will be
arranged.
