STATE OF TRADE.—DUNDEE, Jan. 6.--The quiet
of the holidays has been suceeeded by considerable
animation. Flax was in good demand. The importation
into Dundee, the four neighbouring ports, and Hull, for
1862, was 61,102 tons, being E,545 tons above the average
of the last six years. Tow and codilla of the better quali-
ties continue in good request, and prices tend upward, but
common is still quiet. The importation into same ports
for last ; ear was 11,502 tons, being 1,399 tons above the
average of the last six years. The importation, both of
flax and tow, although large, will not more than supply
the consumption, should the present active demand for
linens continue during the winter. A large business has
been done in jute both yesterday and to-day at full prices,
especially for medium to fine, which is the quality most
wanted. Yarns of all sorts, flax, tow, and jute were in
active demand to-day, and extensive transactions were en-
tered into at, in many cases, a slight advance on late rates.
The inquiry for linens was very great today, and a large
and good business was done, chiefly for delivery some time
hence. Hessians, sheetings, Osnaburgs, sail canvas, and
other goods, are all much wanted, and bring a good return
to the manufacturer.

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUICIDE.--A horrible
attempt at murder and suicide was made on Tues.-
day night in the neighbourhood of the Old Kent-road. It
appears that a man named William Goodwin, who resided
in the Lower North-road, Islington, was in the habit of oc,-
casionally transacting business with a widow named Arman,
residing in Pitt-street. On Tuesday night he called upon
her, and after entering into conversation with her upon
minor matters, stopped to take tea. After spending soma
time in the room he began to take indecent liberties, and at
last made an attempt to commit a rape. She screamed and
firmly resisted. Goodwin then pulled a knife out of his
pocket, attacked her with it, and cut her throat in a dread-
ful manner. She, however, managed to rush out her room
into the street. By clasping the wound with her hands
she was enabled to call out "Murder" and "Police."
Several of the neighbours and police officers then rushed
into the house, when they found that Goodwin had cut his
own throat. The police at once sent for surgical assistance
and in a short time Dr. Dry, of Lock's-fields attended, as
well as Dr. West, of the Dover-road. They found that both.
persons were seriously wounded, but more especially the
man. So dangerous were the injuries that removal of both
to Guy's Hospital was deemed absolutely necessary. The
man was conveyed on a stretcher. Upon making inquiries
late last night it was stated that the woman was in a very
dangerous state. Not the least hopes were entertained of
the recovery of the man ; in fact, he was expected hourly
to expire. Mr. Inspector Dauie, of the P division, was sent
for, and he took possession of the knife and the key of the
room in which the frightful deeds were enacted.

Importing tea without colour on the leaf prevents
the Chinese passing off inferior brown leaves as in the usual
kinds. Horniman's tea is uncoloured, therefore always
good alike. Sold in packets by 2,280 agents.
