LIVERPOOL TIMBER TRADE.

The large importation of wood, which we noticed in our
last as conducing to depreciate the value of the article,
while it also has a tendengy to circumscribe the market,
by inducing a belief among consumers that they can
without difficulty suit themselves as to present require
meats, and incur no risk of disappointment in the event
of any contigency, still continues unabated. The arri-
vals have not only been in excess of immediate demand,
but they have actually outstripped in abundance the
superfluity of preceding years. This will be readily
understood from the statement that at this date last year
101 vessels with an aggregate registered tonnage of 82,740
tons had arrived from British North America, wood
laden, which was not under the supplies required for the
anticipated demand; while this year, with a demand by
no means increased, we have now had 147 vessels, of an
aggregate tonnage of 103,157 tons brought into port. The
preceding statement is sufficient evidence of over import,
and also for displaying its effect upon the market, which
continues low.

Apart from the over abundant supply, other causes, at
which we have frequently glanced, still exercises an ad-
verse influence on the trade in timber, and of these none
operates more:injuriously than the unsteady condition of
the money market. The latter has now been, partly it
may -be by design, and partly by accident, so largely a
matter of commercial dealing, that money must now be
regarded as much a matter of merehandise as any other
article which is bought and sold on the Exchange. A
week of light arrivals of bullion gives such an impetus to
tb4 demand for money tbiat its value elm ost instantly

rises ; and with a few heavy importations of the precious
metals, a re-action is so certainly established that re-
duced rates of accommodation are at once adopted, into
which the Bank of England is however reluctantly also
drawn This delicate oscillation operates so extensively
in commercial matters, that at the present moment with
probably the most promising harvest prospects which we
have had for many years, there is an uncertainty as to
future transactions in every branch of business ; without
the existence of any overwhelming commercial specula
tions, or the necessity ;for providing against any great
mercantile contingency, the community is, and has been,
for-a considerable time past constrained to act with a
degree of caution suggestive of an anticipated monetary
crisis.

Withont' pretending to account for so anomalous a
state of affairs, we deem it a duty to advert to the facts
as they stand, leaving it for others to trace the immediate
connection between the circumstances referred to and the
actual position of the trade in wood ; a trade, in itself so
susceptible of the action of those agencies which agitate
the Money Market, as to engage the watchful anxiety of
those who are intimately connected with it.

NISI PRIUS COURT.

Before M-. Baron CHANNELL, and a common jury.
PRESCOTT V. CROSS AND OTHRRS.—This case was re-
sumed on the sitting of the court this morning, shortly after
nine o'clock. Tae evidence for the defence was very con-
tradictory, each of the three defendants seeking to cast the
blame on the others. The jiirt, afiez some c )eseitatiee,
returned a verdict for the pieta dff—damages £3OO.
BeercitoFr v. PRTrlT.—This was an action for slander.
The plaintiff is a letter press printer and stationer. and the
defendant en innkeeper, b ati of Manchester. About
twelve months ag a the plaintiff took a warehouse adjoining
the defendant's premises, and during the.curse of some
alterations which 113 found it necessary to make, he disco•
vered a hole between the party-wall of the wereheuse and
the defendant's cellar While the plaintiff was superin-
tending the alterations, he heard some women calling
through she hole, and asking the workmen "to come in
and get some beef and brad." At a later period of the
day, the defendant and Ye wife charged the plaintiff and
the workmen with being drink- and with having stolen
their porter; and also sent for a policeman to take him
-away because of being drunk. The plaintiff denied the
imputation, and declined to leave the premises until he
was examined by a medical man, wile would pronounce on
his sobriety. The plaintiff refused to retract the slanderous
imputation, and the present action was accordingly brought.
During the examination of the plaintiff, his Lordhip
suggested the propriety of settling the matter out of court.
Mr. Mocek, who appeared for the defendant, said there was
no intention to cast any. imputation on the plaintiff. After
this, it was agreed to withdraw a juror, and so the matter
ended,

GOODIER v. WILLIAM oN.—Tbie was an action of eject-
ment. The plaintiff is a brewer, and in 1851 the defendant
rented from him a public h )use in liulme, in Manchester,
known as " The J3ity Carter." Subsequently he rented
four cottages whi.th adjoined the house, but failing into
arrear, aLd disregarding the notice to quit, the pre
sent action of ejectment was brought. Verdict for the
plaintiff.

ROBINSON v. FLEMING.-Thii was an action fir slander
The plaintiff is an heraldic engraver living in Manchester,
and the defendant is engaged in the same occupation in
that city. The plaintiff was for some time in his employ-
ment., and at his request went to lodge with his (the
defendant's) brother. On ceasing to lodgd with the brother,
the defendant discharged him, and the plaintiff then com-
menced business on his own account. He could not,
however, obtain work, and on inquiry he ascertained that

MALTA.

The Malta journals of the 4th publish a proclamation
from Lieut.-General Sir John Pennefather, commander of
the forces on that island, announcing that, under the pro-
visions of her Majesty's commission, he has assumed the
administration of the civil government during the tem-
porary absence of his Excellency the Governor, on leave
of absence.

THE AMERICAN FOP.—//arper's Magazine has an anec
dote, intended to be very witty anu pungent, about a
Certain western merchant and "fop" with an eye-glas.
The fop, we are told, seated himself at the table of his
hotel, opposite the merchant and two ladie=, with the
latter, and levelled his glass first at one and then at the
other lady. Whereupon the merchant, from Tennessee it
was, seized a tumbler, and was, according to the arbiter
elegantiarium who tells the story, apparently on the point
of throwing the 'glass "at the scamp ;" but no—the
merchaat, with exquisite humour, placed it to his eye, and
stared at " the fellow," neither breaking his skull nor
kicking him from the table, but so putting him out of
countenance that he retired amid gereral laughter,
COMMITTAL OF A COLLIER FOR WORKING WITH A NAKED
LIGHT.—On Wednesday, at Barnsley, Ito,ler Benyon, a
collier, in the employ of Messrs. Craik and Co,, of the East,
Gawber Colliery, was proved to have taken off the top of
his safety lamp, and worked with it in that state, notwith-
standing strict orders that no naked light should be used
in that part of the workings, on account of the known
prevalence of gas : and had ,an explosion 'resulted, the
lives of 110 men working in the pit might have been
sacrificed. The man's employers pressed for a committal
of the defendant instead of a penalty; and the bench said
it was necessary to make an example. The defendant was
committed to Wakefield house of Correction for two
months to bard labour.
SI \ GULAR AND FATAL EXPLISION.—On Saturday last,
Mr. J. E. Poole, coroner, held an inquest at the Bridge-
water Infirmary, on the body of Thnnas Powell, a loan-
dryman in the employ of Messrs. llennett and Co., con-
tract irs, who was killed by the explosion of an iron tube
on the previous Thursday afternoon. It appeared that
several workmen were engaged i❑ repairing a large shaft
or tube used in boring rocks at the works of the Breedon
Hill Iron Company, and a piece having been welded to one
end of the shalt, it was again put into the fire, and almost
immediately a plug, (ot the existence of which, up to that
time, the men were entirely ignorant) was forced out by
the gas which, the heat generated in the bora The plug,
a heavy piece of iron, struck Powell in the abdomen, and
infEctea such injuries, that, notwithstanding every assis-
,taao,,e was renhered, he died in less than an hour. Another
'man was much hurt, but not seriously. The above facts
having been given in evidence, the jury returned a verdict
of " Accidental death." . - -

3. B. and S. having for many years past trade it their study (regardless of labour and expense) to produce such Improve-
ments in firearms as shall combine Safety, Simplicity, and Quickness of Fire, and for which improvements Royal Letters Patent
Were granted to them in 1837, 1844, 1851, 1852, 1853, and 1855. J. B. and S. beg to request that Sportsmen, before purchasing
Guns for the approachirg Season, will favour them with a visit, to inspect their productions, which for workmanship, finish,
and style cannot be excelled.
J. B. and S. in particular beg to call the attention of the sporting world to their Central Fire Gun, which, after tan
Years trial, proves itself to be one of the greatest improvements of the age. Amongst the many of its advantages stay be
enumerated the following, viz. :—The nipples are so protected and sheltered by the lockplates overhanging them that a
mix-fire is next to impossible. Less Rec,il, whilst greater force is obtained by the flame of the cap being driven direct into the
body or centre of the powder. Lastly, SAFETY. The cocks or hammers of ordinary guns have too frequently been caught
by fences, briars, &c , and accidents of a fatal kind resulted ; this is entirely obviated In the Central Fire Gnn, on account
of the position or formation of the cocks or hammers ; an inspection will convi❑ce any one of this important fact. It is
admitted on all hands that Safety is the greet desideratum in the spofts of the field ; this the Central Fire Gun possesses
tO an eminent degree.

J. B. AND S.'s BREECH-LOADING RIFLE.—At a recent trial at Bircl, field Barracks in the presence of the Officers stationed
there, they pronounced it to be the simplest and most efficient Breech Loader ever invented, it being LOADED, CAPPED, and
