MARLBRO'-STREET-(THIS DAY

PRCCEEDINGS AGAINST THE COUNTESS OF LANDS•
FELT'S (LOLA MONTES) BAlL.—This afternoon, Messrs.
Davies, father and son, attorneys of Warwick-street,
Regent•street, against whom summonses were issued a
few weeks ago, calling upon them to show cause why
they should not pay over to the Crown the sum of 5001.
each, being the amount of their recognizance for the
appearance of Mrs. Heald, Countess of Lansfeldt, to
answer a charge of bigamy, preferred against her in
August last, were in attendance to answer the case
against them.
Mr. Bodkin, who :appeared for the Messrs. Davies,
said he applied here to-day on behalf of the two gentle-
men who, some time ago, became surety for the attend-
ance of Mrs. Heald, Countess of Lansfeldt, to meet a
charge of bigamy. In consequence of her failing to
appear the recognizAnces were directed ,to be
estreated. His object now was to have the case
go to the Quarter Sessi ,ns, and he thought it wouli
be acting quite ministerial of the magistrate if
he directed a distress warrant to be issued
against the defendants, not that they were
dezirous of evading the payment of the 1,0001, but
rather that they should have time to appeal against any
dtcision that might be given against them.
After some further remarks of not the least interest or
importance,
Mr. BINGHAM directed an order to be issued, and as
the amount of bail was over the sum stated in the Act,
they wculd have the power to appeal at the Quarter
Sessions.

Notice, of appeal was then given, and the parties le:
,he court.

THE KILLOUGHY TRAGEDY. - INQUEST ON

THE SECOND POLICEMAN.
(From the Leinster Express.)

In consequence of the death of Sub constable
James Gleeson of wounds received in the affray at
Killoughy, on Sunday week, an inquest was held on
view of the body at the Court-house, Tullatnore, on
Monday, before James Dillon, Esq., senior coroner of
the King's County.
After the examination of several witnesses,
The CORONER addressed the jury, when they re-
tired for about fifteen minutes, and returned the
following verdict:—

" We'find that on the 14th day of October Sub Con-
stable James Gleeson, while in the execution of his duty,
was wilfully, feloniously, and maliciously fired at by an
armed party, to jurors unknown, whereby he received a
fracture, and a mortal gun-shot wound, of which he
languished; and from the effect of the aforesaid gun-
shot wound died in the King's County Infirmary,
Tullamore, on the 19th of October inst. We further
sew, that John and Joseph Keyes, then and there,
were feloniously aiding, assisting, and abetting, while
the said James Gleeson was being killed and mur-
dered."

Corrstable Balfour is not expected to recover.

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of this day.)
MANCHESTER, TUESDAY.—The arrival of the
Cambria, in the middle of last week, seemed to take
a little of the breath out of our market. Since
Friday, however, the spinners and manufacturers
have gathered up their courage again, and are now
demanding higher prices than those of a week ago.
The buyers of yarns, however, whether for ship-
ping or for home consumption, are not inclined
to operate on the required terms : some of
the merchants, indeed, prefer to resell their
stocks rather than export them; and transactions of
this nature are taking place. On the whole, extremely
little business has been done_ In goods, also, the
transactions of the day have been exceedingly limited
The home houses are still doing little. The India
merchants have hardly been in the market at all in
consequence of this being post-day' and of their
mail being daily expected; and the purchases for
other foreign markets have been of small
amount. The rise in prices is the principal
cause of this want of activity. The backward-
ness of buyers is, however, met with firmness and
independence on the part of producers, who, in light
articles, are almost without stocks, and in heavy ones
are so low in price as to have no fear of any further
decline. Although, since the commencement of the
present rise, yarns and goods have kept ahead of
cotton, yet the position of producers is actually more
unfavourable than it was six weeks ago; for, prior
to the .sth inst. yarns and goods had been seriously
falling in value during some weeks, while, in the
same period cotton remained nearly stationary.
ROCHDALII, MONDAY.—The flannel market con-
tinues much the same as it has been for two or three
weeks back. The hands are in full employment, and the
manufacturers have no stocks on hand. There is very
little change in wool, either in price or demand. The
manufacturers continue to buy only for immediate use.
MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—The throwing trade of
this town is much in the same state as we last reported
it, the mills continuing to work full time. In the ma-
nufacturing department a decided flatness is percepti-
ble, which is now being felt by the weavers, who find
diminished employment for the present. This, however,
is nothing unusual at this period of the year. We hear,
on the contrary, from Lyons, and the silk circles of
Eiberfeld and Crefeld, on the Rhine, that the silk
manufacturing trade is very lively. The raw silk
market is reported very firm, both here and on the
continent.

the season when we
do not expect much to be done in wools there is
a slight declince, and it is acknowledged that the re-
sults of the sales may be considered to show a lower
tendency.

HALirAx, SATURDAY.—There has been but a slack
attendance in our Piece Hall to-day, and but a few
goods were sold. There is, however, a fair mount of
business doing to order, and in the warehouses. Prices
remain statiouory. Tile yarn trade continues bzisk,
