STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—AdviCeS by the Cambria
inform us that there was a giving way in cotton of kc.
per It. at New York, on the 6,h inst., after the Great
Britain had left that port; but that the market recovered
its tone in some degree, partially rising -1-c. en the re-
ceipt of letters to the 25th ult. from Liverpool, yet clo:.-
ieg heavily, with a very small amount of operations.
The southern markets continue dull. The accounts of
the growing crop were no less favourable than before.
These ad vices had a somewhat unfavourable effect yester-
day upon the Liverpool market, which was spiritless, the
sales being only 4,000 to 5,000 bales, with a slight incli-
nation in prices against sellers. It seemed probable, at
the opening of our own market this morning, that we
should have not only a flat day, but rather lower prices.
This was the general impression ; but though there cer-
tainly has been an inanimate state of things, we have not
had anything like depression. Rather lower prices have
been offered for yarns ; and spinners have in many
instances divided the difference with the buyers, whilst
in many other instances they have refused to give way
at all. The concession is small and not generally made.
The sales have been of limited extent. In the goods
department, the better qualities of 7-8 and 9.8 printers
are in rather increased request, and still inclining to
harden in price. Domestics appear to be slowly coming
more into demand, but the very salad advance latterly
contended for is no less than before a bone of contention.
Some purchases of the lower qualities of skirtings for
India have been made to-day; the better sorts, however,
but little inquired after.
ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—We have had a brisk demand
for pieces, at feruler prices; and those manufacturers
who were willing to submit to this had no difficulty in
parting with their goods. The wool market is im-
proving, both in price and demand.
HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—.WO have had a very flat
market to-day, and scarcely anything has been done
either in plain or fancy goods. The yarn market is
languid, and the spinners have established a slight ad-
vance, though not equal to the increased cost of the raw
material. The transactions in wool are pretty nu-
merous, but not so much so as they would be if the
stocks in the market were larger; and the staplers are
obtaining rather better prices.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—More business has been
done in the cloth hall to. day than last week, principally
in the lower class of goods. Trade has been fiat in the
warehouses during the week, and not much has been
doing today. Very few buyers having been in the town,
those that have have bought direct from the cloth hall.

VENEZUELAN BONDHOLDERS.
The Venezuela bondholders will feel disappointed, we
apprehend, at the supineness of the Legislature atCarac-
cas in not adopting the agreement made by their Gover-
nment with Mr. Lord, but, on the other hand, they may
be gratified to learn by the correspondence annexed
that the Finance Minister is likely to use proper exer-
tion to meet all engagements. The mistake which Mr.
Lord points out in respect to provision being made twice
over for the same dividend is a singular example of
loose account keeping, that we should imagine to be pe-
culiar to Spanish American States
The following is from Mr. Lord's letter, dated " La
Guayra, 25th and 26th of May, 1852," received by the
Committee in London:—
"To the foregoing duplicate of my respects of 10th
inst., I now beg leave to add that the Extraordinary Ses-
sion of Congress closed ou Sunday, the 23d, without the
least notice having been taken of the agreement since
the sth of April, the day on which the Chamber of Re-
presentatives postponed the further consideration of it
for four days; and thus it remains, neither approved nor
disapproved, to abide the course of events between this
and the Congress of next year! Meantime in the law
of ' ways and means' for the ensuing financial year, com-
mencing on the Ist of July next, there appears this
item—' For the payment of the dividends on the Foreign
Debt 700,000 dolls.'
" The project of law, as sanctioned by:the Lower
Chamber, provided as follows:—For the current inte-
rest on the Active Debt at 3,12- per cent., and for interest
on the Deferred at 1 percent., the sum of 495,554 24,;
on account of arrear dividends 200,000; and it was al-
tered as above in the Senate. The former of the just
mnntioned sums was composed of interest on Active
Debt, at 3i per cent., 64,048,164, at 61 d0115.=400,305
dolls.; ditto on Deferred at 1 per cent., 15,2391. 173. 3d.;
ditto ditt0=95,249,26—t0tal dolls. 495,554,26.
But as the latter commences from Ist Ootober, 1852,
clear it is that the half year's interest due on Ist April,
1853, should alone find place in the ensuing financial
year.

" I intend shortly passing another note to the Minister,
simply to state that, under existing circumstances, I
shall not again trouble him With my remonstrances,
unt 1 I receive fresh instructions from the Committee so
to do.

"On the 22d Messrs. Frederick Huth and Co. were
named by the Executive Fiscal Agents of Venezuela in
London.

" Late yesterday afternoon (26th May) I received a
note from the Minister, dated the 21st, of which I beg
to enclose a copy.
" The dividend of April, 1847, was duly paid by
Messrs. Reid, Irving, and Co., and yet the Minister
again includes it for payment in his order to Messrs.
Frederick Muth and Co. It was to obviate, as I
thought I should do, the possibility of any mistake of
this sort, that I furnished the Minister in May of last
year with full particulars of the debt (vide my letter of
24th May, 1851, to the Committee), but it seems no at-
tention whatever has been paid to my information.
(Signed) " 11. J. LORD."
The following is a translation of the Finance Minis-

ter's keter addressed to Baron de Goldsmid and the
crher gentlemen of the Provisional Agency:—
"Caracas, 21st May, 1852.
" Gentlemen,—The Honourable Chambers not having
been able to determine anything with regard to the
agreement entered into by this Ministerial department
with Mr. Lord in September last, matters remain in the
same state as before. The Government, with the inten-
tion of satisfyieg the just claims of the British creditors,
and whilst means are being obtained to arrange this busi-
ness satisfactorily for both parties, has resolved to ap-
point Messrs. Fr( derick Huth and Co. as financial
agents for this Republic, authorising them henceforth to
apprise the holders of the Venezaelan Active Debt that
they may call on any appointed day and hour to receive
the payment of their dividends.
`• For greater facility and convenience to the bond-
holders, and by way of the natural consecutiveness of
the Coupons, the assent to the agreement, as mentioned
above, not having been given, Messrs. Frederick Iluth
and Co. are commissioned to begin with the payment of
the overdue dividends, namely, those of April and
October, 1847, for which purpose you will place at their
disposal the funds that have been remitted to you up to
this date. In this manner the creditors will receive at
once two dividends instead of one, since the Government
remits by this packet the necessary funds thereto, and the
Government will, subsequently, do all in its power to pay
the dividends regularly.

"I have the honour to remain, &e.,

THE REV. J. E. GLADSTONE AND THE
BISHOP OF LONDON. •
We have been requested by the Rev. Mr. Glad-
stone to give insertion to the following letter, which
he has just addressed to the Bishop of London :
" Craven Hotel, Strand, June 22, 1852.
" My Lord,—The Arches Court has decided that you
have the power to prohibit a clergyman from preaching,
without assigning any reason. The effect of that decision
seems to be, that you can prohibit from preaching in
all cases; for, although you cannot touch a rector's
freehold you can command him to cease officiating, and
if he resist, you can take him into the Court of Arches,
where your will is sure to be obeyed. The contest in
which I have been engaged with your Lordship has been
(as I conceive) on behalf of the liberty of presbyters
against the irresponsible and unlimited domination of the
prelacy. Had I been accused and found guilty of
" nonconformity, heresy, or immorality," then none
could or would have questioned your right to punish
me; but as it has not
,even been pretended that any
charge in these respects can be advanced to my pre-
judice, I have the alternative of seeking the reversal of
the sentence by the Judicial Committee of the Privy
Council; but as it appears that the great body of the
clergy are content to abide in a position which I cannot
but think to be one of galling slavery, in which, though
under the vows of God " to preach the Word, to be in-
stant in season and out of season," they are liable to be
stopped at any moment, even by the private whim, or
pique of a bishop, who is not bound to give any reason
fur his procedure, it does not seem to me to constitute
my duty to carry the matter any further. The appeal
to the Privy Council will therefore be withdrawn.
" Whatever may be the conscientious feelings of
others, however, I confess, my Lord, I cannot submit to
such an administration of law as that which gives any
one man power to punish another, without a crime even
so much as charged against him.
"Ardently attached to the true Protestant doc-
trine and righteous discipline of the Church of
England, I shall ever, so far as God shall
enable me, seek her welfare and prosperity ;
but I must remove myself from the power of what I
conceive to be an unrighteous discipline (altogether
aloof from her spirit), which, whilst it screens and fosters
the unfaithful, under the pretence of want of power, in-
flicts speedy punishment upon those who are too faithful,
and finds abundant means of carrying that punishment
into execution.
" Under these circumstances, I have felt it to be my
duty, in the sight of God, to accept the charge of the
New Free Episcopal Church, just completed, at St.
Mary Church, Devon, and I consider it to be right that
I should acquaint your Lordship with the fact.
" I beg also to inform you that I shall send a copy of
this letter to the papers.
"I remain, my Lord, faithfully yours,
" JOHN E. GLADSTONE.
" To the Right Hon. and Right Rev. Lord
Bishop of London."

DEVON AND CORNWALL MINERS' GOLD COMPANY.

—Yesterday a general meeting of shareholders in this com-
pany took place at the offices in Clement's-lane, City ;
Samuel Weatherley, Esq., in the chair. A resolution was
submitted for the purpose of amalgamating this with the
London and Sydney Gold Company, which, after leading
to some discussion, was adopted unanimously. A vote of
thanks was also passed to the chairman and directors for
bringing about the amalgamation with the London and
Sydney Gold Company. The meeting then adjourned.

TAKING A BULL BY THE HORNS.—A few days
since as a bull was rushing in a furious manner through the
streets of Caen, a soldier belonging to the 4th Carabi3eers
stood courageously in the middle of the street to stop the
animal. The moment the bull came within reach he seized

it by the horns, arid by a quick and vigorous movement
turned it over on the ground, and held it there until it could
be properly secured.—[Very doubtful. ]
