THE NEW JUDGE.—STAFFORD, JULY 24.—Mr.
Sergeant Talfourd this morning received the official an-
nouncement from the Lord Chancellor of his elevation to
the judicial bench, in the place cf the late Mr. Justice
Coltman, at which much satisfaction was evinced by the
barristers of the Oxford Circuit, who congratulated their
elcquent and amiable leader on his new dignity. The
judge-elect (imitating Sir Thomas Wilde) returned his
briefs and tees in the several cases, in one of which now
trying he led the plaintiff's case, and at ten o'clock the
author of " Ion" took formal leave of his circuit, and
proceeded to town, to be at once sworn in, that ho may
attend chambers, Lord Chief Justice Denman being ill.
ELECTION FOR BOSTON.—BOSTON, JULY 23.—Mr.
D. W. Wire arrived here yesterday, at three o'clock, where
crowds of electors were waiting to receive him, by whom
he was most enthusiastically cheered. The Radicals are
in high spirits; and the Tory tail resolved that they will
not be unceremoniously handed over to that hybrid poli-
tician newly christened a "Liberal Conservative," now
that they will support the Radical candidate. The friends
of progress and thorough, in contradisdiectioa to sham
Reform, are rejoiced at this opportunity of vindicating
the independence of the borough, and once for all sepa-
rating principles from mere names. We trust to be
enabled soon to " give a good account " of Captain Pel-
ham, to send him back to his state cabin, and to send
Mr. Wire to the cabin of the State.

MANCHESTER. STATE OF TRADE. —We have
again to report a very firm feeeling in this market.
During all last week producers have manifested little
disp.)sition to accept orders except at advanced rates; in-
deed, in the present state of the market, having engage-
ments which will keep them fully at work for some time
to come, and the cotton market showing every tendency
to continue rising, it would be Ill,zardous to accept large
orders at prescut rates. The foreign houses are still
exceedingly active, and continue to give out their orders
with considerable freedom. All descriptions of printers'
cloth are much in demand; madapoliams and shirtingg
are commanding a slight advance where buyers are com-
pelled to purchase. Heavy goods have also advanced,
but nut in proportion to the advance in cotton, so that
that department is still by far in the most depressed con-
dition. Home trade houses are looking forward to a
brisk and successful autumn trade.
