STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, January 22.—Cotton Goods.—The
gradual decline of prices which has taken place
during the last few weeks has made business rather
more practicable to-day. The stoppage of mills has
probably helped to this result, because the les-
sened production in a market not much burdened
with stock naturally tends to strengthen the hands
of sellers both of cloth and yarn. In the yarn market
there has been a decidedly better feeling, with more
business doing, and in some cases a shade higher
prices obtainable than spinners would have accepted
even so lately as yesterday. The business effected
in shipping yarns has been chiefly for Cninn,
and the Mediterranean markets. The sellers of
home-trade yarns have asked rather high prices,
but only a small imount of business has been done.
Practically there has been no change in prices, but
there has been more inquiry, and a less gloomy
feeling existed than in the earlier part of the week.
In cloths there has been but little done since
Tuesday, and the improvement has been slight.
Tae extreme flatness which existed up to that cb.y
has given way a little, and some business has been
done for China, owing to better accounts having
been received by the mail to-day. Advices
from Calcutta by the same mail are only a day later
than those previously to hand, bat report a rather
better feeling there. These advices have led to little
or no business. Some offers have been made on
India account, but of too speculative a character and
at prices too low to be favourably entertained. The
demand from the home trade is of no account ; and
though the market on the whole is rather firmer,
there is very little change in the relative position of
buyers and sellers. The large orders held on foreign
account have not yet been thrown upon the market,
and the aggregate business is reported to have been
small. At Hong Kong, Dec. 15, 84lb. shirtings
were 2s. 6d. to 33. 63. per piece higher.

REPRESENTATION OF BRIGHTON.—The cora' aittee
of 25 gentlemen, appointed at a public meeting o
the Liberal electors of Brighton'tc select a candidate who
will, it is to be hoped, secure the united support of the
Liberal party, are still engaged in considering the claims of
Messrs. Dumas, Fawcett, Otway, and Goldsmid.. It is
stated that Mr. Moor the Conservative candidate, ir ,tends to
withdraw from the contest. During the paesent w eek, mr.
Dumas has addressed crowded meetings of the el ectors at
the Reeve Inn, Eusion-road, the Royal Oak, St. James's-
street, the Imperial Hotel, Queen's-road, and at Peter's
Ward. The temperance party, which is numerically im-
portant at Brighton, elicited from Mr. D111110..i. that, al-
though he would not pledge himself to vote in favour of a
permissive bill, he would support the appointment of a com-
mittee to investigate the subject.

THAMES.

WIFE BEATING—WiIIiam Perry, aged 28, a labourer,
was brought before Mr. Partridge, charged with assaulting
his wife Elizabeth, who carried a baby in her arms. Her
face was swollen and her left eye blackened. Upon enter-
ing the witness box she said the prisoner was her husband
and the father of her children, and she did not wish him to
be sent to prison. Mr. Partridge said there were marks
of considerable violence on the woman's face, and he would
not allow the charge to be withdrawn. She was then s worn
and stated that she was living at No. 4, Windsor-terrace,
Canal-road, Stepney. Her husband came home intoxicated
last night. He was like a madman, He called her
by the most filthy names, and said he had come
home for the purpose of breaking everything
id the place, and said that she must provide
another home for herself and five children. He then beat
her about the head, face, and body with his fists most fear-
fully. He had very often beaten her when he was under
the influence of liquor, but he was very well when he was
sober. He was in the practice of stopping away from his
home all night.

Lydia Smith, a poor seamstress, who looked half f. mished,
said she lived in the same house as Mr. and Mrs. Perry.
The wife was an industrious and very clean woman. The
prisoner came home last night and beat his wife in a most
frightful manner. He commenced by kicking over a tub
of water with which his wife was cleaning the passage, and
said "out you go."

The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said his wife com-
mitted adultery with a beer shop-keeper named Adams, who
carried on business in Limehouse, and they were seen
coming out of a house of bad repute a fortnight after she
was confined with her child. She commenced using very
foul language when ho came home last night. The prisoner
then gave utterance to a volley of blasphemy and obscenity
as an illustration of what his wife said. He was frequently
checkel by the magistrate. The wife was recalled, and
denied emphatically that she had given her husband any
cause for complaint, and the witness Mrs. Smith said the
complainant was a well conducted woman.
After a long discussion, Mr. Partridge said the prisoner
was not bound to maintain his wife if she was false to him,
but she denied on oath what her husband alleged against
her. The prisoner was an ill-conditioned, badly disposed
man, and he had wounded his wife very sevfrely on a former
occasion by flinging a basin at her. He believed the wife
was very desirous of speaking the truth, and that she had
a good feeling towards the prisoner, whom she wished to
screen from punishment when she entered the witness-box.
The prisoner was a savage fellow, and his boisterous and
improper conduct in court did not say much in his favour.
He sentenced him to be imprisoned for one month and kept
to hard labour.

A Turkish Magazine of Arts.

The lliejmooai Funoon (a monthly publication)
belongs to the Jemiyeti Ilmiyehi Osmaniyeh, or
Ottoman Literary Society, the newly- formed Useful
Knowledge Society, and is compiled by its mem-
bers. The editors are Munif Effendi and Kadri Buy.
Among the contributors are H. H. Kiamil Pasha,
late Grand Vizier, H. E. Edhem Pasha, H. E. Safert
Pasha, H. E. Mehemed Jemil Pasha, Ambassador
in Paris, Said Effendi (now in London on a mission),
and Abu Bekr Effendi, Mussulman missionary at
the Cape. The latter has contributed a series of
letters on the Cape of Good Hope, which furnished
the groundwork of a cock-and-bull story, in the
English papers, according to which, the missionary
of the Turkish Society for the Propagation of Islam
among the Christians had depicted the dissensions
among the Christians at the Cape, how a Bishop
Colenso had criticised the texts of Scripture, and
how he believed that in ten years' time the inhabi-
tants would abandon Christianity and adopt Islam ;
to promote which result, he recommended that a
number of well-paid Turkish missionaries sheuld be
sent to the Cape, and that a liberal distribution
sheuld be made of well-written Mussulman tracts.
The real history of Abu Bekr's mission is, per-
haps, more interesting than the imaginary one. In
Cape Town, a city of thirty thousand inhabitants,
ten thousand are Mussulmans, acknowledging the
Padishah as the head of their religion. When you
were in Constantinople, the Turks were much
tickled, by hearing from their Consul-General, Mr.
De Roubaix, that there were Mussulmans who only
spoke English or Dutch. It is a great satisfaction
to the Turks to have these Mussulman dependents
in an English territory, as they do not always bear
with perfect complacency the assertion of some of
the English here, that Queen Victoria is the greatest
sovereign over Mussulmans, and our ambassador,
Sir Henry Balwer represents the first Mussulman
power.
Dissensions on point of doctrine arising among
the Mussulmans at the Cape, the matter was re-
ferred to Stamboul; and the Sublime Porte, instead
of giving a verbal opinion, with great liberality
sent oat a-distinguished mollah, Abu Bekr Effendi,
well known in Stamboul circles, and they continue
to pay him a salary of £4OO a year. Abu Bekr
Effendi has done much to improve the religious and
moral condition of the Mussulmans of the Cape, and
has established a school there. He has communi-
cated to the Mei inootti Funoon some interesting ac-
counts of the Cape, and his proceedings ; not, how-
ever, mentioning one little fact which has interested
his numerous Stamboul acquaintance, that he
has married there an English-speaking Mussulman

lady, who is highly accomplished and plays the
piano, like several fashionable Khanums, in Stam-
boul.

The Mejmooai, besides purely literary articles,
has articles on geology by Edhem Pasha, banking
by Mnnif Effendi and Kadri Bey, telegrams, &c.
As it is written in a good and pure style it is much
liked.

BOW-STREET.

STREET ROBBERY.—DanieI Hearne was placed at the
the bar, charged on remand with having committed a street
robbery on Robert Henderson.

Police-constable 151 E said about half-past 12 or 1 on
Monday night he was on duty near White Lion-street,
Seven Dials, when he heard a faint cry of "Police." He
went in the direction of the cry, and there he saw a number
of young men running away from the prosecutor, who was
lying drunk on the ground, and who said the men had
robbed him of 7s. 6d. Ho sprung his rattle for assistance,
and in a short time the prisoner was brought back by a
police constable.
Prisoner—The old man:says he lost 7s. 6d. ; why, how
could ho do that when he had only 4s. when ho camo out
of the workhouse infirmary ? (Laughter.)

Mr. Henry— Ail your questions shall be answered at the
proper time.
The prosecutor, a dissipated-looking man, said he came
out of the infirmary with half a sovereign in his pocket,
and, unfortunately, he changed it for drink. He took too
much, and as he was going home some men set upon him,
knocked him down, and stole his money. Ile could not say
the prisoner was one of them.
Prisoner—That's right. How could he ? It was be-
tween 12 and one, so how could he see ? I want to know
how ha could be robbed of 7s 6d when he had only got 4s ?
(Laughter.)
Prosecutor—l had half-a-sovereign, and it was changed
to get drink with.
Police-constable 46 E said the prisoner ran into his arms
as he (witness) was proceeding in the direction of the
sound of the constable's rattle.
Several other police-constables having given evidence,
Mr. Henry asked the prisoner what he had to say to the
evidence of the constable.
Prisoner—All I've got to say is that I know nothing
about it. I went out of an errand for my sister, when the
policeman collars me and walks me off to the station,
Mr. Tierney. sister of the prisoner, said she kept a coal
and greens shop in Compton-street, and on Monday night
she sent the prisoner out to buy a candle about half-pant
11, so he could not have committed the robbery.
. .

Constable White said when he went to make inquiries of
Mrs. Tierney about the prisoner, she said she had not seen
him for three weeks. _ _

---
Tierney—Oh, your worship, I never said so. I've a
real English lady in her own right in Chancery, and one
that's got £6 a week coming to her, and she'll prove the
boy has been at my place these three weeks. Its all false
what the policeman says, and he knows it.
Mr. Henry (to the prisoner)—The police seemed positive
you were one of the parties who ill-used the man.

Prisoner—Of course, they say so.
Mr. Henry—What motive could they have for so doing
it was not so?

Prisoner—Why, to get their is 61 a-day at the sessions.
Mr. Henry-1 shall send the case to the sessions; but
before doing so I will hear what you have to say in answer
to the charge.
Prisoner—What I say I what's the use of my saying any-

thing. The police will swear all I say is false.
The prisoner was then fully committed for trial, and as
he was leaving the dock his female friend said to him—
" Keep up your pluck, old tar."

THE ARMY.

A large quantity of engineers' stores, consisting of 10,000
trenching tools, wheelbarrows, carts, &c., were yesterday
despatched in barges from Woolwich Arsenal for shipment
on born the freight ship Queen of the Deep, for New
Zealand.

Capt. Frederick Augustus Foster,Royal Marine Artillery,
and a staff of non-commissioned officers from Fort Cumber-
land, Portsmouth, have been engaged at Woolwich during
the past week in examining a number of men of the Royal
Marine Light Infantry, who have been permitted to volun-
teer for the atovenamed corps. Each man was subjected
to a strict test of his knowledge of reading, writing, arith-
metic, &c., and was required to be of sound constitution,
and especially to have good eyesight, so as to distinguish
distant objects readily with one eye, Forty-five were
eventually selected from the division, and will join the corps
at Portsmouth. The Woolwich battalion, which were
already 142 short of their required strength, are thus stripped
of a further number of picked mon, to the great annoyance
of the officers and non-commissioned officers of the corps, by
whose labour and tuition they have arrived at their present
state of efficiency, only to be transferred to the rival branch
of the forces. Capt. Foster and his staff are now under
orders to proceed to Chatham for the same purpose.
Capt. Connolly, Lieuts. 'Woodford, llopkins, and Bow-
man, and a detachment of Royal Marines Light Infantry
for some time stationed at Deptford, consisting of 120 non-

at Deptford will be occupied until further orders by a ser •
geant, corporal, and 12 privates only.

Death of Sir William Atherton.

We have to announce the demise of Sir William
Atherton, late Attorney-General, who expired
shortly before noon yesterday, at his residence in
Westbourne-terrace. The late hon. gentleman was
in his 58th year. He was the son of the late Rev.
William Atherton, Wesleyan minister, by Margaret,
daughter of the late Rev. Walter Morison, a minis-
ter of the Established Church of Scotland. He
was educated in this country, and adopted the law
as his profession. After going through the cus-
tomary legal education, he was called to the bar at
the In ner Temple,and as a barrister went the Northern
Circuit. He practised as a special pleader for some
years, and in 1852 be3ame a Queen's counsel and
bencher. The same year he was returned in the
Whig interest for Durham (city), in conjunc-
tion with Mr. Granger. In 1857 he was elected at
the head of the poll, having for his colleague the

Right. Hon. J. R. Mowbray. On being appointed
Solicitor-General in succession to Sir Henry S.
Keating in 1860, he was re-elected without opposi-
tion. Sir William succeeded the present Lord
Chancellor (Lord Westbury) as Attorney-General,
and in the early part of the autumn last year was
compelled to relinquish his dignified post as Attor-
ney-General, owing to his greatly impaired health.
0 wing to the death of the learned gentleman a
vacancy takes place in the representation of the
city of Durham. The late Sir William married in
1843 Agnes Mary, second daughter of Mr. Thomas
J. Hall, the late chief magistrate of Bow-street. Sir
William was an advanced Liberal in politics, being
in favour of vote by ballot, and consequently exten,
sion of the suffrage.

FUNERAL OF ADMIRAL HAMELIN.

The funeral of this distinguished French admiral
took place on Thursday last at the Church of the
Invalides, Paris, and was conducted with much
ceremony. A numerous body of troops, consisting
of eight battalions of infantry, a battalion of light
infantry, two squadrons of cavalry, two batteries of
artillery a battalion and a squadron of the Paris
Guard, iwith their bands and colours, was present,
and the Impetial Guard was represented by a bat-
talion and a squadron of the corps. The troops
were massed around the church, and presented
arms at the same time as those of their com-
rades who were on duty within the building. The
navy was represented by many officers of high rank
who were stationed around the bier. Several Mini-
sters, diplomatists, marshals, and officers of the
Imperial household were present, as well as a great
number of officials of all descriptions, and depu-
tations from the army, National Guard, the Senate,
the Legislature, the Council of State, and many
other bodies. The Emperor was represented
by an aide-de-camp, General of Division Mollard,
and by Count de Laferriere, one of his Ma-
jesty's chamberlains. Prince Napoleon and the
Princess Mathilde were also represented. A
portion of the church was set apart for the
use of the deceased admiral's family and friends,
amongst whom, as chief mourners, were the admi-
ral's eldest son, Captain E. Hamelin ; his second
son, Captain A. Hamelin; and his nephew, M.
Desvarannes. The cords of the pall were held by
Baroche, Minister of Justice; Marshal Vaillant,
Minister of the Imperial Household and of Fine Arts ;
Count de Chasseloup-Laubat, Minister of Marine and
of Colonies; and Vice-Admiral Trehouart, senator,
representing Admiral Desfosses, who was indisposed.
At the commencement of the ceremony a salvo of
11 guns was fired by the artillery stationed
on the quai of the Invalides, and during the
progress of the service a military band played alter-
nately with the organ and with the vocal music
executed by the choristers. A second salvo of 11
guns was fired at the conclusion of the ceremony,
and at 1 o'clock the coffia, on a car drawn by six
horses, was conveyed to the gate of the Invalides,
when the troops marched past. The mortal remains
of the gallant sailor were eventually borne by some
petty officers in the navy to the vaults of the church,
where by order of the Emperor, they are to repose,
surrounded by many a gallant old soldier.

A Turkish Magazine of Arts.

The Mejmooai Funoon (a monthly publication)
belongs to the Jemiyeti Ilmiyehi Osmaniyeh, or
Ottoman Literary Society, the newly- formed Useful
Knowledge Society, and is compiled by its mem-
bers. The editors are Munif Effendi and Kadri Boy.
Among the contributors are H. H. Kiamil Pasha,
late Grand Vizier, H. E. Edhem Pasha, H. E. Safert
Pasha, H. E. Mehemed Jemil Pasha, Ambassador
in Paris, Said Effendi (now in London on a mission),
and Abu Bekr Effendi, Mussulman missionary at
the Cape. The latter has contributed a series of
letters on the Cape of Good Hope, which furnished
the groundwork of a cock-and-bull story, in the
English papers, according to which, the missionary
of the Turkish Society for the Propagation of Islam
among the Christians had depicted the dissensions
among the Christians at the Cape, how a Bishop
Colenso had criticised the texts of Scripture, and
how he believed that in ten years' time the inhabi-
tants would abandon Christianity and adopt Islam ;
to promote which result, he recommended that a
number of well-paid Turkish missionaries should be
sent to the Cape, and that a liberal distribution
should be made of well-written Mussulman tracts.
The real history of Abu Bekr's mission is, per-
haps, more interesting than the imaginary one. In
Cape Town, a city of thirty thousand inhabitants,
ten thousand are Mussnlmans, acknowledging the
Padishah as the head of their religion. When you
were in Constantinople, the Turks were much
tickled, by hearing from their Consul-Geueral, Mr.
De Roubaix, that there were Mussulmans who only
spoke English or Dutch. It is a great satisfaction
to the Turks to have these Mussulman dependents
in an English territory, as they do not always bear
with perfect complacency the assertion of some of
the English here, that Queen Victoria is the greatest
sovereign over Mussulmans, and our ambassador,
Sir Henry Bulwer represents the first Mussulman
power.
Dissensions on point of doctrine arising among
the Mussnlmans at the Cape, the matter was re-
ferred to Stamboul; and the Sublime Porte, instead
of giving a verbal opinion, with great liberality
sent out a distinguished mollah, Abe Bekr Effendi,
well known in Stamboul circles, and they continue
to pay him a salary of £4OO a year. Abu Bekr
Effendi has done much to improve the religious and
moral condition of the Mussulmans of the Cape, and
has established a school there. He has communi-
cated to the Mejmooai Funoon some interesting ac-
counts of the Cape, and his proceedings ; not, how-
ever, mentioning one little fact which has interested
his numerous Stamboul acquaintance, that he
has married there an English-speaking Mussulman

....._ _
lady, who is highly accomplished and plays the
piano, like several fashionable Khanums, in Stam-
boul.
The Mejrnooai, besides purely literary articles,
has articles on geology by Edhem Pasha, banking
by Munif Effendi and Kadri Bey, telegrams, &c.
As it is written in a good and pure style it is much
liked.

STATE OF TRADE,

MANCHESTER, January 22.—Cotton Goods.—The
gradual decline of prices which has taken place
during the last few weeks has made business rather
more practicable to-day. The stoppage of mills has
probably helped to this result, because the les-
sened production in a market not much burdened
with stock naturally tends to strengthen the hands
of sellers both of cloth and yarn. In the yarn market
there has been a decidedly better feeling, with more
business doing, and in some cases a shade higher
prices obtainable than spinners would have accepted
even so lately as yesterday. The business effected
in shipping yarns has been chiefly for Ctiina, India,
and the Mediterranean markets. The sellers of
home-trade yarns have asked rather high prices,
but only a small amount of business has been done.
Practically there has been no change in prices, but
there has been more inquiry, and a less gloomy
feeling existed than in the earlier part of the week.
In cloths there has been but little done since
Tuesday, and the improvement has been slight.
The extreme flatness which existed up to that (ley
has given way a little, and some business has been
done for China, owing to better accounts having
been received by the mail to-day. Advices
from Calcutta by the same mail are only a day later
than those previously to hand, bat report a rather
better feeling there. These advices have led to little
or no business. Some offers have been made on
India account, but of too speculative a character and
at prices too low to be favourably entertained. The
demand from the home trade is of no account ; and
though the market on the whole is rather firmer,
there is very little change in the relative position of
buyers and sellers. The large orders held on foreign
account have not yet been thrown upon the market,
and the aggregate business is reported to have been
small. At Hong Kong, Dec. 15, 8-1-lb. shirtings
were 2s. 61 to 3s. 6d. per piece higher.
