THE HANNIBAL.

Hannibal, screw, Captain Grey (last from Brest, where
she discharged her Russian prisoners), is lying at the same
moorings she took abreast of the dockyard upon moving in.
We understand that a telegraphic despatch was received on
board yesterday morning, to send some of her brasses, con-
nected with the shaft immediately to Woolwich, to be re-
fitted. Same left for Chatham yesterday by steamer, and
will be forwarded to the above place by rail. A number
of engineers are employed from the yard, on board, toge-
ther with many hands from Woolwich, making good the
defects of her machinery, and were employed all last San-
day. There is a rumour here that this ship will not now
go into dock ; but in consequence of there being something
very irregular in the guide-frames connected with lifting
the screw, which would be impracticable to repair perma-
nently under water, we may, therefore, almost contradict
that rumour, and say that on Thursday or Friday next
she will be docked.

STATE OF TRADE.

(Prom the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MARCIE/3M, Sept. 19.—Our market has b en a good
deal affected to-day by the heavy failures that have oc-
curred within the last few days. As is usual in connec-
tion with such events, an unwonted degree of caution is
excited, and operations are largely interrupted. These
effects are not confined to the particular branches of busi-
ness directly interested, but extend in different degrees
throughout the entire market. Altogether, therefore, we
perceive a sensible diminution of business, and an impaired
spirit. This, of course, ie more especially the case in those
departments of yarns: or goods which are particularly
connected with the markets of India, China,' and North
and South America. The Greeks, however, continue
a fair amount of purchases both in cloth and twist ; but
the Germans hold back very much. The home houses
are buying moderately. The value of domestics, lone-
cloths, T.'s, and printers is sustained. To India goods
and yarns no test. is applied. The degree in which the
lower counts of twist are under contract renders their
extremely stiff in price. In other yarns for the conti-
nent, and also for home manufacture, only a slight con-
cession from the previous quotations can be here and
there obtained by purchasers. The overland letters are
received, and they report some improvement in the Cal
cutta market, with a more favourable prospect for fu
ture business, and also a little amendment at Bombay.
ROCHDALE, Sept. 18,—We have had a brisk demand
for flannels, whioh has quite equalled if not exceeded the
supply ; prices are much the same as they were on the
preceding week. There is little change in the wool
market ; the demand moderate and prices firm.
HUDDERSFIELD, Sept. 19.—A slight improvement has
taken place in the demand for goods in the market to-
day. In some of the warehouses more has been doing.
but as a general rule business has not been brisk. The
fancy vesting trade continues very depressed, and there
seems little chance of an improvement in this season.

THE SCREW STEAM-SHIP PRINCE.

The splendid screw steam-ship Prince, of 2,700 tons,
one of the screw steam-ships which proceeded with French
troops to the Baltic, arrived at the Royal Arsenal, Wool-
wich, yesterday afternoon, and made fast to the same
moorings as the paddle-wheel steam-sloop Salamander.
The Prince appeared to have a number of troops on board,
and it is said she has come up to Woolwich in the first
instance to discharge about 250 tons of shot and shell
brought home from the Baltic. It is probable these shot
and shell will be at once transferred to the Salamander
for conveyance to Malta and the Black Sea, as it was un-
derstood that the Salamander had come to the Royal
Arsenal to take on board about 250 or 300 tons of shot and
shell for service in the war in the East.

110 P INTELLIGENCE.

The Kentish, Gazette says :—Picking has commenced
in some few grounds in the neighbourhood of Canterbury,
and in all cases the produce has been short of expecta-
tion. In our next, as the operations of the picking will
have become more general, we shall be able to give a
more correct idea as to the growth. From the locality
of Maidstone similar accounts are received. In every
instance where
down very light and "uncommon brown," In some
picking has commenced, the hops come
grounds picking has been suspended, the crop not
being sufficiently ripe. From some districts in West
Kent the crop falls very short from a half toga third,
the planters wondering what has become of the hops.
If it were not melancholy, it would be laughable,
says a correspondent from West Farleigh, to find ten
cwt. per acre dwindled down to three cwt. The quality
is mouldy and bad, and very few samples will be clean
and good. If the duty, says the same report, was fairly
set before picking at 60,0001., we cannot call it 40,0001.
as the hops come down. The picking will soon be over.
It will be expensive to the planter, and not remunera-
tive to the picker. There are several large growers in
the parish of Marden, of from 40 to 50 acres, who will
not grow a ton on 40 acres of land, and those gardensare
the best farmed. This parish will not average i cwt.
per acre ; they are getting very full of the red mould,
and by the time they are picked will not be larger than
a pea. The duty since picking has commenced has
60,0001. an P.6ting is genera 7

SYRIANS CONTRIBDTING TO SEND THE GOSPEL TO
CHINA.—The congregations at Beirut are reported as at-
tentive and serious to a degree that makes it a pleasant
and hopeful work to preach to them. One thousand
piastres have been sent by them, to aid in furnishing the
million of New Testaments for China. Dr. Smith, at
the close of the year, had reached the 22d verse of the
18th chapter of the Acts in translating the New Testa-
ment. The church at Hasbeiya has passed through
many trials the past year, owing to the anarchy pre-

THE VALOROUS.

The Valorous, paddle, Captain Buckle (lately arrived
from the Baltic), is still lying in the graving dock, Sheer-
Lieu; repairs, however, are fast being completed, the
gripe being now on and fastened together with the dead
wood, and other damages of more trifling nature are com-
pleted. By Saturday evening next she will, no doubt,
be out of the hands of the shipwrights; her machinery is
in tolerably good order, we believe, with the exception of
the paddle-wheels, which will be completed far better in
dock; that, together with the rigging and many minor
repairs, will be finished by next week, when the crew will
have returned from their ten days' leave of absence. It is
generally expected, when fit for sea, that this steamer will
be despatched immediately for the Mediterranean.

POLAND.

The Post Ampt Gazette of Frankfort has the fol-
lowing from Posen, dated the 15th :—" Informa-
tion has been received from a good source that the
whole of Poland, comprised between the Prussian
frontier and Warsaw, is completely deprived of
troops, and that on the whole of the western
frontier only a few Cossacks and veterans
are to be seen. The marches and coun-
termarches which were seen before have
now completely ceased. Prince Paskiewitch
will not return to the army of the south, of which
he had accepted the command in spite of himself.
He had from the very outset disapproved of the
Russian plan of operations, and pretended -that

the army ought to have returned on the Pruth so
soon as the attitude of Austria became doubtful•
It is evident that the Russians have retired from
strategical motives. Kiew is to be fortified, and*
great number of houses have been already throo
down for that purpose."

RUSSIA.
According to reports from St. Petersburg, /14
Berlin, the following reinforcements have been
marched off with all possible expedition to the
Crimea :—The second brigade, seventeenth division
(second division), 6th corps and 6th Rifles, nine
battalions ; the first brigade, fourteenth visi°,l2ll
(second division), sth corps, eight battalions, with
the 14th Artillery brigade (4th corps), consisting
four batteries with forty field pieces nominallY•
d
is added that the remainder of the 6th corps,
which one division is in Asia, and fought near
Kars, is ordered to the Crimea, with all the dis'
posable cavalry from the colonies. The infantri
are forwarded as much as possible in waggons.
London, England, 1854-09-20

to the highest discipline, combined with the most
eager courage, and armed with the best imple-
ments of modern warfare ? And then the Right
of our cause. Never in history have England
and France fought for more unselfish objects.
Lord Exmorrm's expedition against Algiers was
not more in the interests of European humanity.
It is impossible not to believe that the judgment
of HEAVEN is on the side of those who sacrifice so
much to check a reckless, and withal a hypocriti-
cal and blasphemous tyrant—a being who can
thank GOD for his butcheries, and pretend religion
as an excuse for gratifying ambition and over-
running his neighbour's peaceful territories. It
is difficult to believe that the selfish, profane, and
barbarous ambition of NICHOLAS are not more of-
fensive to the Supreme Court of the Universe
than even to all honest earthly Courts ; and yet,
after all our confidence in our prowess, in our
cause, and consequently iu the approbation of
HEAVEN, we cannot forget that the Right has not
always triumphed at first, and that the ablest pre-
parations and the bravest soldiers may fail before
unforeseen obstacles. The very tardiness of our
rulers may need its chastisement, and may bring
it. Bitter certainly will be the indignation of the
whole country should it turn out that they have
not allowed time for the only step which could
insure the safety of Turkey. Severely will the
wasters of the nation's money and the nation's
opportunities be visited with the nation's dis-
pleasure if the present important attempt prove
unsuccessful. Under these circumstances it is
with a calm reliance on PROVIDENCE that we await
tidings which may quite possibly meet the eyes
of our readers at the same time with what we now
write. Such unrighteous Armadas as those of
the Athenians, in ancient times, against Syracuse,
and of Spain against England, met the defeat
they deserved, boundless as were the hopes with
which they sailed, and better-founded hopes have
often been disappointed ; taugbt, therefore, by
history and experience, we restrain all boasting ;
we remember that we are not omnipotent, but we
reasonably hope much from careful preparations,
and religiously hope still more from a righteous
cause.

MADRID, SEPT. 15.
The Consulting Junta of Valencia has dissolved
itself.

The Espana says that General Castaneda will be
appointed captain-general of Catalonia, in place of
General Dulce, resigned. It is also stated that
General Zabala wiil be appointed captain-general
of Madrid, in place of General San Miguel, who
will be inspector-general of the National Guards.
There is great activity displayed now in arming the
latter force ; several companies who were unarmed
marched this morning to the barracks of San
Gil, where a depot of arms has been established,
and returned with arms.
The Government have banished Don Julian del
Valle, commander in the army, and who was at
the head of the volunteers of Madrid who formed
part of O'Donnell's forces to Valladolid, for which
he left at one a.m., under custody of a civil guard.
It appears that he took a prominent part against
the Government in the affair of the 28th ult.

THE HANNIBAL.

Hannibal, screw, Captain Grey (last from Brest, where
she discharged her Russian prisoners), is lying at the same
moorings she took abreast of the dockyard upon moving in.
We understand that a telegraphic despatch was received on
board yesterday morning, to send some of her brasses, con-
nected with the shaft immediately to Woolwich, to be re-
fitted. Same left for Chatham yesterday by steamer, and
will be forwarded to the above place by rail. A number
of engineers are employed from the yard, on board, toge-
ther with many hands from Woolwich, making good the
defects of her machinery, and wore employed all last Sun-
day. There is a rumour here that this ship will not now
go into dock ; but in consequence of there being something
very irregular in the guide-frames connected with lifting
the screw, which would be impracticable to repair perma-
nently under water, we may, therefore, almost contradict
that rumour, and say that on Thursday or Friday next
she will be docked.
