MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT. - The activity
noticed in this market a week yesterday was somewhat
checked during the remainder of the week, and less
business was trancted towards the conclusion than at the
beginning. The slight reaction arose, however, not so
much from a decreased demand as from an attempt to
secure an advance in price. The mills generally being
well employed fur some time to come, manutacturers
were unwillidg to accept further orders unless an
advance was submitted to. As heavy purchases had
been made, the merchants generally were not prepared
to accede to this advance, and the result was that less
business was transacted. The same cause operated to
chec. k transactions yesterday. A considerable amount of
business, however, was done, and at fully last week's
rates. More might have been done if prices had not
been so very firm. There is a healthy feeling pervading
the market, and trade generally may be skid to be
iD
prosperous condition.

Gray, typographer, residing at No. 6, Temple-lane, City, states,
that he suffered the most excruciating pains in his leg for a con-
siderable time, occasioned by an accident,which he unfortunately
met with; two deep wounds formed in his leg in consequence
of it, and although he tried various lotions and ointments, yet
all were found entirely uselc.s. He was then recommended by
a friend to use some of Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which
he did, and in six hours he was greatly relieved, and in about
eight days the wounds were soundly healed. Sold by all Drug-
gists, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand,

Finally, for comparison with coal gas at a distance
from the mines, it was stated, that while to produce
one thrusapd cubic feet of gas, at least t'xo hundred
pounds of coal must be transported, one gallon of'
Bonzole did not weigh more than seven pounds; this,
in carriage, would give Balzole an advantage of
twenty-eight to one over coal as a source of light.
In the discussion which ensued, high encomiums
were passed upon the talent and patient labour exhi-
bited by Mr. Mansfield in the investigation of this
important subject, which promised to lead to most
remarkable results, as an extension of gas lighting to
positions where it had not before been considered
applicable.

The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and
are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify.
HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the
premiums with Interest of the retained halves, is required to be p iid
for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the
convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form
a deductiot from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As-
surance may be relinquished at any time without payment
Of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to
assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate,
and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice.
WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security
of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the
assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits.
Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a
specified age. or at their death, whichever shall first occur.
PARTNERSHIP POLICIES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance
effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in-
vested. On the death of either, the survivor is benefited by retain-
ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain
their share without having to wait until it can be recovered from
outstanding debts.
There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the
equator.
No Admission er Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge
made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp.
Claims are payable within three months after proof of the death of
the assured life

approved by the Board, wlio extend the business of Life Assurance in

WEST INDIA MAILS.

• -
SOUTHAMPTON, TUESDAY MORNING.—The Royal
Nail steam ship Great Western, Captain Woolfe, has
arrived here with the usual West India and Mexican
mails, in charge of Lieut. Striven, Admiralty agent. She
brings only a small freight of 390,000 dolls., none of which
are for account of Mexican bondholders ; 269 serons
of cochineal and other cargo, and about 35 passengers.
Our advices from Jamaica mention that the Governor
had further prorogued the Legislature to the Ist of May.
It was believed that it would be further adjourned till
instructions had been received from the Colonial-office.
Meetings continue to be held, advocating a reduction
of the expenditure and reforming the Council of the
island .
The island remained heal,hy and the weather fine.
The markets were rather better. Sugar and coffee had
advanced in price. Exchange as before reported. There
is no intelligence of importance from Mexico. Business
was dull.
The roads from Vera Crus to the capital were much
improved, and were perfectly safe.
At St. Lucia tranquillity was perfectly restored.
Grenada In the Island of
the subject of retrenchment
the public had begun to occupymind, and a Committee
of the House of Assembly had reported in favour of re-
ducing the salaries of t,ffices.
Our advices from Havannah mention that the demand
for sugars bad augmented in activity, and the supplies
were becoming more abundant, and the weather
favour-
able. Prices, nevertheless, experienced an advance.
For a few days before the packet sailed the marker

was more quiet, owing to the scarcity of vessels.
The accounts from tho interior respecting the yield
of the crop had gradually become more and more

gloomy.
Freights had advanced to 3/. 13s. for Cowes and con-
tinental ports, and. although many vessels had arrived,
yet few were disengaged.
The quarantine on vessels from infected places in
Great Britain was 15 days, but eight days if they brought
clan bills of health.
Exchange on London 10k premium; Paris 2 to 3

disc ,unt.
Honduras, state that trade was
Accounts from Belize,
dull in consequence of the disturbed !tate ohe adjacent
countries and the continued depression of mahogany in
the home markets.
Not more than two-thirds or half of the usual quan-
tity of that wood would be brought out for shipment
this year.
The West India Islands generally were healthy. The
crops of the present year, in addition to reduced cilia-
ration, were likely to be very much diminished from bad
yielding; this was particularly the case at Jamaica.
Advices from the Republic of Guatemala mention that
tranquillity had been restored, and the besieging force
under General Vincente Cruz disbanded pursuant to
treaty.

GORDON'S INTEREST TABLES.

Jll4 published, a New Edition, bound in roan, I2mo. Price ss. 6d.
INTERES'r TABLES AT FIVE PER CENT.
A_ from 1 Day to 365 Days, I Month to 12 Months, 1 Year to 10
Years. With Tribl,s sh)wing Interest at 5 per cent. reduced to 4',
4,3%, 3,2%, and 2 per cent, ; Tables of Commission or Brokerage,
&c. By JAMES GORDON, Accountant.
By these Tables, the interest of any sum not exceeding 1001.
and for any number of days not exceeding 365, can be obtained by
one inspection. For example : -" Required the interest of 841, for
251 days ?" On turning to page 251, opposite to the sum 841. princi-
pal, is the answer 2/.. 17s. 9d. interest. And, to find the interest of
any sum not exceeding 3651. for any number of days not exceeding
100, it is only necess try to reverse the time for the sum, thus:—
" Required the interest of 3501. for 93 days ?" By turning to page
350, opposite to the sum 93/. principal, is the answer 4/. 9s. 2d. inte-
rest. In selecting the Type, regard has been paid to clearness and
distinctness ; and the introduction of Ezyptian figures at the tens,
will, it is hoped, give increased facility to the eye in running over the
columns.

BOURSE.—Penis, MONDAY, APRIL 23.

THREE O'CLOCK.—Everything was weak on the Bourse
to-day. The news of the actual departure of the expe-
dition to Civita Vecchia is generally considered the cause
of the fall which has taken place of 1 franc since Satur-
day. Hitherto it was believed that the expedition would
be unnecessary, but the Roman Republicans seem de-
termined not to yield till forced to do so. Exchange on

THE SUN,

those which were bound for Dantzic, Pillau, and
Konigsberg, to Mernel, and aote for Stettin to
Weimar. This answer was likewise returned by the
Danish Regation to the British Ambassador and other
parties who made a similar request. No party what-
ever has, therefore, obtained free permission.
The subject now under consideration in the
Second Chamber is the alien questiun, by which
foreigners will receive a great extension of their
privileges.
The Netherlands East India mail has brought
letters and papers from Batavia to the 27th of
February, and Java to the 24th of February. The
whole colony of Batavia is occupied in preparing an
expedition against Bali ; the expedition was to
have set out on the 24th, but the preliminary arrange-
ments not being complete, it was deferred to the 15th
of March. Great and effective preparations were
being made, in order to ensure complete success, and
the entire conquest of the island. The commandant
of the last expedition, which had such an unfortunate
issue, has been recalled by General Vander Wyck, and
will immediately repair to Holland to answer the
charges made against him, but which he attributes
entirely to the Governor-General.
The inundations have been fearful in the Nether-
lands Indies, and entire plantations have been quite
destroyed.—Dutch Papers, April 21.

PRUSSIA.

It was rumoured in Berlin on the 17th that the
King of PRUSSIA hid determined to accept the im-
perial crown on condition that the acceptance of the
con3titution should be suspended until after its
revision.

In the sitting of the Chamber on the 21st inst.
M. RODBERTUS' motion on the recognition of the
German Constitution was discussed. The report of
the committee, to which the motion had been re-
ferred, recommended its acceptance by the Chamber,
Count BRANDENBURG, in the name of the Ministry,
strongly opposed the resolution, alleging that the
alteration made in the Constitution in the
second reading at Frankfort rendered it impossible
for Prussia to aocept it unconditionally, though he ac-
knowledged the efforts made to procure a modification
of the present form of the Constitution, in accord
with the other Powers, had failed.

On the division, the third paragraph of the resolu-
tion, of M. RODBERTLS, pleding the Chamber to the
unconditional recognition of the Constitution, was
carried by 179 to 169. The result had caused the
greatest excitement.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
A letter from Flensburg of the 17th says,—" It is
announced that Colonel DE Tumni repaired on Sa-
turday last to the King of DENMARK, and informed
him that if the Isle of Alsen waa not evacuated
in three days the town of Sonderburg would be re-
duced to ashes. The KING replied that he would
never voluntarily quit th i e sle, and announced to the
inhabitants of Sonderburg that they had three days
to secure their lives and propaty. This delay would
expire to day.
Intelligence has been received at the Prussian em-
bassy that the Emperor of Russia has sent a severe
note to the King of DENMARK blaming the Danes for
recommencing the war, and strongly advising his
royal brother to arrange the dispute and grant a con-
stitution to Schleswig.

WURTEMBURG.

Letters from Stuttgart of the 19th inst., in the
Deutsche Zeitung, mention the resignation of the
Wurtemburg Cabinet in consequence of the King's
positive refusal to join the declaration of the 28
German Princes in favour of the Constitution. The
greatest excitement prevailed throughout the Wur-
terntrarg capital when the King's resolution and the
resignation of the Ministers became known. The
King Las sent for several of the leading men in his
cou❑try, but none of them would undertake the for-
mation of a new Cabinet.

ITALY.

Letters from Turin of the 17th state, that the
Cabinet of Olmutz, intoxicated by the success of
RwhercehTzirimpos
has insisted
; notistedu
upon terms, compliance with
only
do they demand the
occupation of the Sessia territory and of Alessandria,
but the payment of an indemnity so absurdly exorbi-
tant, that it is evident Piedmont Could never raise the
amount required, and thus, in fact, the important
fortress-of Alessandria would be ceded to Austria.
It is, therefore, by no means improbab!e that the war
may be renewed, arid that the French army of the
Alps may march to the assistance of Piedmont.
On the 16th inst. a courier was dispatched from
Florence to the Grand Duke of TUSCANY at Gaeta.
This courier was followed by a deputation with the
adhesion of the several municipalities. The depute,
tion consists of M. VANNI, President of the Chamber
of Deputies, and M. CAMPINI, President of the
Senate, and several members of the municipalities of
Sienna, Pisa, Lucca, &c. Count DEMIDOFF placed a
steamer at the disposal of the deputation. The Mi-
nisters of England and France have sent to request
the Austrian General lioLLowskr to suspend his
march towards Cerreto, in Pontremolese, and Mas-
setano.
On the people of Leghorn being informed of the
state of affairs at Florence, they were highly indig-
nant, and assembled on the public place and named
twelve citizens, who are denominated the Commission
of the Government of Leghorn. The gates of the
city are guarded by the National Guards and the ar-
tillery, and a strong guard patrols the streets during
the night. The city was otherwise quiet. The com-
munication with Florence is interr4ted.
