TROTTING MATCII. The trotting match, so long talked off
in this neighbourhood, came off on Tuesday last, under the
superintendence of Mr. Thomas, of the White Hart Inn. The
scene of sport was on the North-road, between the 24th and
22d mile-stone, being a distance of two miles. the match was
for 10 sovs., and the competitors for the prize were Mr John
Emson's brown mare, 17 years old, and Mr. N. Bamford's (of
Bell Bar) noted chestnut horse Charley, which never had been
beaten before. A great number of people were assembled on
the occasion, and-much anxiety as to the result was manifested
by the spectators, including several gentlemen who had gone
on horseback to witness the race, among whom we noticed two
young sporting squires of the neighbourhood. All being pre-
pared for the word " off," both started at a score : for the first
three quarters of a mile they were neck and neck, but about
half way up the Waterford hill, the horse being pressed, broke,
and in consequence of being turned round, the mare took the
lead, and was never overtaken, although the horse galloped in
for the last 50 yards. The distance was cleverly run in six
minutes two seconds. After the match was over, a very re •
spectable party met at the White Hart, and enjoyed the re-
mainder of the evening comfortably. The winner was subse-
quently sold to a sporting landlord at Clapton for the enormous
sum of 71......11erts County Press.

DETERMINED ACT OF SUlClDE.—Thursday af-
ternoon an inquest was held at the London Hospital on
the body of James Harrison, the mate of a West India-
man. From the testimony of a female named Elliott, it
appeared that on Tuesday night' she met the deceased in
Ratcliff-highway, who asked her to accompany him to have
something to drink : she did so, and they had a glass of
gin each. After that she walked down Old Gravel•lane
with him, and they had not got far when she observed the
deceased put his hand into his breast, and take out some-
thing which she at first thought to be a pistol, and say
"Shall you or I have this?" She ran away a short dis-
tance from him, and on looking back she saw him drinking
off the contents of a bottle, which she had mistaken for a
pistol. The deceased then went to a house where he
lodged, and on seeing his landlord, he handed him the bottle,
saying, "'There, there's a proof of what I have been do-
ing." His landlord becoming alarmed, sent to the residence
of two or three medical gentlemen in the neighbourhood,
but all were absent attending their patients. The de-
ceased in a short time became insensible, and was removed
to the hospital, where everything was done for him, but in
vain ;he died on the following morning. It further ap-
peared that the deceased had been a remarkably well con-
ducted man until his return from his last voyage, since which
he has conducted himself very singularly and irregularly,
but noparticular cause could be assigned for this rash act.
The Jury returned a verdict of " Temporary insanity,"
Last week, an individual at Schwanden, in Swit-
zerland, having been informed that in England men might
sell their wives, determined upon disposing of his better
half to a friend for five crowns and eleven pounds of wool.
The payment was made, but the wife, who took the whole
affair as a joke, refused to ratify the transfer, and returned
to her father. The case was reported to the authorities,
but a reconciliation, which has since taken place batween
the now " happy couple," has put a stop to the proceedings.

STATE OF TRADE.

(From the Leeds Mercury.)
TRADE IN LEEDS.—The Markets et both Halls have
been much the same this week as for the last few weeks.
Tj►e manufacturers held firm to their prices, and the stocks
on band are by no means large. Several of the London
buyers have been in the Market during the week, and in
consequence there has been a little improvement in business
in the warehouses.

BRADFORD MARKET.—We have had another dull piece
market this day (Thursday), probably more so than any
preceding one this year. There does not appear so much
activity in the yarn market as there has been a few weeks
back. In wool but little business has been done th:s week.
Spinners are supplied for present use, and appear disinclined
to purchase further at present prices. Stocks still cmtinue
light, both here and in the hands of the country dealers.
HANFAx MARKET.—We have had but a dull market
to-day (Wednesday), not much business has been doing, and
manufacturers seem not at all anxious to push sales at pre-
sent prices. The demand for lastings is improved. There
has not been much activity in the wool market this week,
yet prices are at least quite firm. Middle wailers fetch
lt*l. per lb.
TRADE OF MANCHESTER.—WC believe the market, both
for goods and yarns, was somewhat less active yesterday
than for a few weeks past. It was, however, still buoyant,
and there was no receding of prices ; nor are there any ac-
cumulating stocks.—Manehester Guardian, Wednesday.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET.—To-day (Monday) has
been a very slack market ; few buyers have been in the
town, and very little business done. Princes continue the
same as last week. Wool still remains firm, yet buyers are
unwilling to purchase, except for immediate use at the pre-
sent prices. Fine pieces were very little inquired for.
Middle qualities were rather dull. Low sorts were int
moderate demand. Grays and dyed goods sold well.
WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, JAN. 20.—1 n long Wool
prices continue rather to improve, but purchases are confined(
to those who are actually out of stock, and obliged to come
to market for immediate requirements. Others not so cir-
cumstanced, not feeling confidence in the establishment of
the late advance, prefer waiting until they are nearer run
out of stock. Short Wool fully maintains tha advance re-
cently reported, but not much has been done in it this week.

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, JAmmtr 21.
Our market has not maintained the healthy appearance this week
which we noticed in our last report. The demand having been very
limited, purchasers have supplied themselves at a decline of Uld.
to 1/4,d. per pound on American descriptions; bat in other kinds
without change. Surats are again heavy. Speculators have only
taken 100 Surat and 150 Egyptian, and exporters 100 Surat. The
import this week is 16,564 bags. The sales are—

Much surprise and interest have been excited by the
announcement of a new tale, called " The Divorced," sup-
posed to be founded on a recent event in faShionable
Court Journal.

FLITTINGS OF FANCY.—That the author of these
sketches is a writer of fine taste, an an unquestionably
poet ?cal apprehension, many passages, even of his prose—
passages that are conceived in the best spirit of a romance
—loving mind, and expressed with all the graae and music
of cultivated and refined feeling, sufficiently denote. But
his claims to regard in this respect are still more emphati-
cally established by the present republication of two poems
”en
—"'rheSilent River," and " Faithful and
from his
—productions of striking-
grace, tenderness, and
romantic interest, which created a deep impression on their
