THE REFORM MOVEMENT IN THE NORTH.—
' An active agitation in favour of Parliamentary Reform has,
for the last eight months, been conducted in the two =unties
of Durham and Northumberland, by the Northern &Lem
Union. From a report submitted last week to the members
of the Newman branch of the =Ma, by the treasurer, Mr.
Joe. Cowen, jun. we learn "that upwards of thirty public
tweeting+ in coneixion with the union have been held in the
northern dinaot, commencing with Newcastle, and comprii, '
Mg North Shields, South Shields, Methane, Blyth, Hartle-
pool, Darlington, Middlesborough, and newly all the large
eallery and ,manufacturing villages between the Tyne and
the Tees. All the melange have ban numerously attended,
sod at meth hes the Inver opporition been off-red to the reso-
ladles ef the =ion, or a eagle hand bald up sealant them."
The eouncil an preparing to Mend ant complete their organi-
sation, end they declare " that in every centre of populate= in
the northern counties there 'hall be, before parliament re-
esionblss, a local branch of the Reform Union.' A great
of reformers is to be held in Newcastle in the
opira=a deer weeks, at which the winter campaign is to be
fermelly etheasseed. P. A. Taylor, Beg., of Leedom, the
patter= that the supporters of the Union have pledged
themselves to contest the representation of Newcastle at the
nest election, and other well-known reformers of the ad-
vanced school, are expected to he prevent. The council bane
a monthly journal, The NortAera Reform Record, which is
devoted to reporting the proceeding. of the Union, and a
vigorous but temperate statement of the principlee on which
it Is Mead. The council declare their object to be "to dis-
seminate awful political infonnetioe, and to urge the middle
sad working clams to increased interest in political aSeire,
but tree front the personal and class declamations of the
Chartist thew." The sumac they have met with they de-
elm to have been " gratifying and encouraging," and tiny
welts of their future efforts in a hopeful spirit.

more meneereue than wet expected, and they came oat
liberally, although pricy suffered a reduction; but
that was to be expected even by holders, se sheep mar-
kets have deteriorated in this respect for some time

the same numbers as In prelims year., in consequence
of the tontips being a vet, 'o'er:or crop. The market

the forenoon a stimulus was given, and by mid-day a
geld number of sales were adhered of all kinds. At
the dose of the market few or none of the black &cod
sheep remitted tumid ; red there is little doubt
that what was left of the Cheviout would be con-
verted into money before next omitting's market-
