POSTAL DIRECTORY. ONE SHILLING.
Just published, the Supplement to the " Post Office London
Directory for 1849," which, in addition to the mere supplemental
matter, contains the " Postal " and " Parliamentary Directories
exactly as in the complete work, As the Supplement extends to
upwards of an hundred closely-printed Imperial Octavo pages, it is
sold at nearly the same proportionate price as the " Post Office
Loudon Directory " itself, which, as stated in an able Review of the
book for the cur ent 3 ear, published in the " Times" on tho:3o4h of
Noveirber last, " is necessarily a bulky volume ; but its bulk,
contrary to the general rule, is an advantage, and it may he said
to contain no superfluous pages whatever." The " Post Office Lo.i-
don Directory " is, beyond all comparison, the cheapest work which
is ues from the p ess, taking mere s,ze into consideration, and
without reference to the various classifications, and other matters too
numerous to he detail,d here. This I)irectory was characterized by
the " Examiner," of the 16th of December last, as a " perfect marvel
of arrangeme it, accuracy, and fulness of information." And the
" Morning herald" of the 30th of the previous month, likewise re-
viewing the " Post Office London Directory for 1849," described It
as " an authoritative Directory of the capital of Great Britain,
laughing rivalry to scorn." The " Supplemeot " now published at
the price of one shilling, contains the '' Postal Directory," furnish-
ing all the regu'ations of the l'ost Office as affecting the receipt and
dispatch of letters to the five thousand principal places throughout
the world, copious Money Order information, &c., &c., &c., and the
" Parliamentary Directory," likewise contained in this " Supp e-
meat." furnishes the usual information with reference to Peels and
Members of the House of Commons.

Likewise, price 155.. the " Post-office London Directory for 1849,"
containing " Official Directory," " Commercial Directory," "Court
Directory'," " Parliamentary Directory," "Postal Directory,"

THE NICOLL—REGENT- STREET and
CORNIIILL.

BESIDES the above Patented Article, there
Is another Novelty introduced for this geason which is
however, Registered, and consists in a BODY GARMENT some-
what in the form of a Dress-coat, that is to say, a Gentleman
can wear it in the evening without distinctly infringing the laws
of costume recognised in Society ; but as it is more especially in-
tended for morning wear, when Riding or Walking, it necessarily
avoids the stiff formality to no ebserved in the cut and form of the
Dress-coat. The price is

TT is impossible to detail in an ordinary Adver-
tisement the many advantages appertaining to the above gar-
ments. In the first place, Messrs. NICOLL purchase the wool
direct from the foreign grower, and it does not leave their possession
until it is produced in a complete form and ready for the inspection
of their Patrons. Messrs. NICOLL are honoured with the patronage
of their Royal Highnesses Prince Albert, Prince George of Cam-
bridge, Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar, his Grace the Duke of Wel-
lington, and all others distiaguished in Rank and Fashion, the Court,
the Pulpit, and the Bar.
At 114, 116, and 120, REGENT-STREET, and 22, CORNIIILL,
there is to be seen

THE NICOLL.—A patented garment and pos-
sessing this peculiarity, that whilst in its exterior it preserves
every characteristic of ho Registered Paletot, it can, by simply
detaching an inner li ing, be comer ed front a warm to a light
0 ercoat, or vice versa, at th pleasure of the wearer. This same
inner lining, when detached, of itself forms a most comfortable
reading or dre,sing jacket. There ore many other a lvantages con-
allied in THE NICOLL, ren bring it as a garment a most valuable
adjunct in a variable c,imate, also for travelling, &c., but it should
be seen and wo'n to be fairly appreciated, but it can be had in Lon-
don only at 114, 116, 120, REGENr-STREET, and 22, CORNIIILL,
an

IT is perhaps unnecessary here to state that Messrs.
NTCOLL will endeavour to deserve and retain the eminent
position they have attained through the employment and liberal
payment of the best skill and talent that can be met with in order
to introduce articles of gentlemanly costume in the most perfect
taste. Messrs. N. are well aware that their great popularity induced
by the high character exhibited in every point of the Registered
Pal,tot, &c., &c., has caused many to assume a somewhat similar
title for their goads, but the copy has consisted only in a close re-
semblance of the name but not of the article ; a careful observance
of the annexed address is therefore respectfully solicited, where the
above garments can only be obtained in London.

TO ONE-TREE HILL.

Hail, charming eminence! I love to mark
Thy beautiful a,cent in Greenwich Park.
When but a child I loved thee, and I still
Respect the very name of One-tree Hill.
Thy steep acclivity and crowning tree,
We re ever honoured, ever hailed by me ;
And many a time I've left the busy town,
To try my skill at running up and down.
Or stood upon thy lot ty brow to mark
The happy multitudes in Green ich Park.
Once snore, famed hill—once snore do we discern,
The approaching sign of Easter's glad return.
And soon thy park will echo with the hum,
Which p'ainly tells of Easter's season come.
Thousands preparing for thy cheering scene,
To MOSES' Dress Establishment have been.
And had'st thou eyes to see, thou would'st, admire
The specimens of .;LOSES'
SPRING ATTIRE.
Such splendid samples of artistic skill
Were never known before, thou noted hill.
MOSES and SON will show you something primp
In Easter Dress for Eighteen-Forty-Nine.
THE HATS OF MOSES,
Which we soon shall mark,
Mere, there, and everywhere in Greenwich Park,
Are equally deserving of approval,
While throngs of buyers aid in their removal.
THE BOOTS AND SHOES
In every sense are prime,
.And thousands have been bought fur Easter time.
Never did feet ascend thy pathway steep
Wills shoes so smart. so durable, so cheap.
THE HOSIERY AND SHAWLS,

Will beautify thy scene ht Greenwich Park.
Nor there slo but all throughout the land,
Will proofs been how MOSES' dress is planned.

liamast, MAnex 29.—Wheat comes forward in fine con-
dition, but is very various its quality. It is taken at last
week's rates. Some Odessa wheat offers at 91. ss. per ton,
and small sales of low qualities of foreign wheat are made at
9!. ss. to 10!. 10s. per ton. Flour—Coarse keeps in demand,
whilst fine is dull of sale, and prices nominal. American
barrels sell at 23s to 25s 6'. Barley a slow sale at former rates.
Oats are in brisk demand for seed, which affects feeding
oats, and in them we note an advance of 3d per cwt. Oat-
meal unchanged in value, but is a slow sale. Indian Corn is
in moderate demand 7. 2,6 d to 71 5s fur yellow, and 2s 6d less
for white.

CORK, MARCH 30.—The weather has undergone a change,
and we have had, during the last few days, some cold rain and
partial show. We are happy to be able to report a slight im-
provement in the trade, and the appearance of a better confi-
dence in commercial circles. Still, however, we have not
that animation and briskness generally observable at this pe-
riod of the year. The falling off in the arrivals of foreign grain
has, we think, imparted a firmer tone to the market, so that we
have every confidence that, with decreased imports, we shall
have a more healthy business and enhanced prices. The con-
st.mption of bread stuffs of every description is large at pre-
sent, and is of itself sufficient to superinduce higher rates.
Our supplies of home grain also have so dwindled away, and
become so wretchedly small as to be almost unworthy of notice
or account. This remark applies especially to wheat, the re-
ceipts of which from the 23.1 to the 29th, both inclusive, fall
short of 100 barrels. In prepared (Irish) and in foreign wheat
we have had little business, but holders are looking fur higher
prices for both articles. We have little barley offering. As
seed time draws to a close it is probable that this article, as
well as oats, will recede in value, in fact they have already
given way to some extent. The consumption of Sour is large,
still the market does not exhibit a degree of activity corres-
pondent with the demand for the article. It is difficult to ac-
count for this fact except by attributing it to increased compe-
tition in the trade, and a desire on the part of bakers to beat
down prices to the lowest point. A large business continues
to be done in Indian core, but holders having demanded
an advance of 2s 6d per ton on the article, a
slight check in consequence has been given to the
trade. Indian meal remains at our last report.

THE MURDERS AT LIVERPOOL.
The prisoner was again brought up on Saturday for
further examination, before the Mayor and Mr. Rushton.
The new evidence adduced was that of Jacob Samuel,
a hairdresser, who shaved him on Wednesday evening,
and who noticed blood on his wrist. The prisoner spoke
to him about buying a wig, and also about the cost of a
passage to New York. George Moore, a pawnbroker's
assistant, also identified him as the man who bad offered
to pledge the gold watch produced (Mrs. Henrichson's).
Mr. W. P. Harrison, surgeon, stated that Mrs. Hen-
richson remained in a state of insensibility, and that
there were very little hopes of her recovery. The ser-
vant, Ann Parr, when brought to the hospital, was con-
scious, but incoherent. She beeline afterwards more
coherent. She was still in a dangerous state, and there
were but slight hopes entertained of her recovery. From
the nature of the wounds upon the persons brought to
the hospital, with the exception of the' wounds on the
finger of one of the children, they might have been
produced by blows with a blunt instrument. The
younger child's throat was cut almost from ear to ear,
and the head nearly severed from the '3ody. At the
close of the proceedings the prisoner was fully com-
mitted for trial.

A telegraphic dispatch received from Liverpool yes-

Saturday night, never having, for a moment, recovered
her senses.
