MANC HESTER, AUG. 4 -2-On Monday and Tuesday
heavy showers of rain cowinued to fall at short intervals;
but subsequently t!:e weather, though cloudy and threat-
ening at times, has been fair, and now appears more
settled. Influenced by this circumstance, the favourable
accounts of harvest prospects generally, and increased
supplies of flour, the trade has remained in the same
lifeless state as noted last Saturd,y, only a few occa-
sional sales to necessitous buyers being practicable (and
which were only confined to choice fresh kinds) even by
accepting offers at reduced rates. Oatmeal has been in
limited request, and the best descriptions merely main-
tained their previous value, Of English and Irish pro-
duce the arrivals at Liverpool and Runcorn are still to a
very I,mit, d amount, but from abroad the imports of
a heat and beans are to a fair extent, and large of Indian
corn and barrel flour. The weather being very fine this
morning, our market was exceedingly quiet, and wheat
declined ld to 2:1 per 7001 b. On the best descriptions
of fLur we reduce our quotati. ns Is, and on other sorts
Is 6d to 2a per sack. Other articles were generally the
turn cheaper.
GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, AUG. 2.—The numbers
at our market to-day were—oxen, 543 ; sheep, 1,420 ;
lambs, 4,949. Owing to the number of cattle brought
forward sales were very dull, with a decline of 2i per
owl. Ox bet from 45s to 50s per cwt, cow and inferior
from 383 to 423 per do. Best mutton sil per lb, mid.
from 4d to 51 per do. Lambs from 33 to 14s per held,
ace. rdiug to quality. A number of oxen, sheep, and
lambs, turned out unsold.

Coax, AUG. 2.—The supplies of home grain are
trifling. Some new here and oats of excellent quality
have appeared at mark( t, and have sold at fair prices.
We have had a few transactions in prepared or foreign
wheat at a decline of 64 per barrel. The trade in oats
has been merely a retail one at late rates. We continue
to have a steady consumptive demand for flour at last
week's prices. The stocks, as well as the supplies of
the article, ara light, and barely sufficient for the wants
of the trade. The consumption of Indian ecru has fallen
Gff still further, and we must quote the article a slow and
dull sale at a decline of full twenty shillings per ton from
last we. k's rates, the current prices being 6/ to 615 s per ton.

THE LIBERAL MEMBERS AND LORD PALMERSTON',
—On Wednesday, before Parliament was prorogued,
about one hun,!red independent Members of the House of
Commons, beleneing to the Liberal party, held a meeting
at the House of Commons to consider of the propriety of
expressing their opinion of Lord Palnurston's public cow
duct. After some discussion, it was resolved that each
gentleman should subscribe five pounds; the money to be
,•inployed in procuring a portrait of Lord Palmerston, to
be presented to Lady Palmerston as a memorial of the
high respect in which the subscribers hold the public
character of his Lordship. This was entirely a spout',
nexus move on the part of the independent Liberal Mein'
bers, and they studiously kept their design secret frol
every person connected with the Government till after
the resolution had been adopted. Their proceeding is se
echo of the voice of the country. In times of the greatest
difficulty Lord Palmerston has preserved peace, and has
,fficaciously used the power of England to promote free-
dom abroad and reconcile contending governments 110
factions. He has deserved, therefore, the approbation
of the lovers of peace and constitutional liberty; and the
conduct of these independent Liberal Members will find
general approval.—. Economist.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]— An Awful Bad Leg, with
15 Wounds in it, Cured by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.--
Extract of a letter from Mrs. Sarah Eastment, of Haselburyp
near Crewkerne, dated April 16, 1849. To Professor Hol-
loway, Sir—About six years ago certain unfavourable syniptorsis
manifested themselves in my left leg, which proved to be scro-
fula and King's evil, and at one time there were 15 wounds
about my ancle. For four months I was in Cheltenham Ho:
pital, and there pronounced as incureable; from thence I went
to King's College Hospital, there also they failed to effect
cure, and I was obliged to return home a complete cripple;
in this state I commenced using your Ointment and Pills
which have perfectly cured my leg. Sold by all Druggists'
and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand,
London.
