FENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.
I IF The thousands of individuals who for upwards of twenty
years have used this celebrated liquid, pronounce it to be the only
article extant which effectually changes, in a few minutes, red or
grey hair, whiskers; ineustaches, &c., to a dark brown or black,
without trouble (by simply combing it through the hair), and pro-
duces by one application a pleasing and permanent change ; and it
can be incontestibly proved, that while many dyes tend to destroy
the hair by their pernicious properties and dangerous process of ap-
plication, that this article promotes the growth of hair, nourishing
the roots till the latest period of life. Price 3s. 6d., 65., and 105

G 0 L D,"

Wherever we wander, the eye may behold,
The work of that wonderful monarch, " King Uold."
Ills sceptre is swayed, like a magical wand,
And numberless scenes to Its bidding respond ;
White cities end kingdoms, with splendour unfold,
The work of the harlequin monarch, " King Gold,"
In London's proud city, wherever we steer,
Ills Majesty's triumphs and trophies appear;
His pantomime changes are daily displayed,
In temples, and mansions, and houses of trade ;
And nothing Is purchased, and nothing is sold.
Bat speaks of the magical ruler, " King Gold."
See, see, what the gold-sceptered monarch has done,
At the palace-like Warehouse of MOSES anti SON ;
The Dress Mart itself, like a spacious domain,
Rises up, as a proof the Emperor's reign ;
And the dress which at MOSES and SON'S we behold.
Is a proof what is done by the wand of " King Gold."
Many thousands their bright golden tributes have paid
To MOSES and SON, at their Houses of trade;
For Gold has enabled E. MOSES and SON,
To gain yon more savings than any have done ;
And the prices at which all their dresses are sold,
Are bright golden proofs of the rule of " King Gold,"

11`V1- One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a
sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the Indissoluble, regret un-
comprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical Incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice dernami that health should forra an item
In the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
aeglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, If

they are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on

pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, ner are they the

life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-

STATE OF TRADE.
MANCHESTER.—The flatness which prevailed in the
market at the close of the last week still continues,
and the amount of business done to-day was very
limited. There is still a demand for cloth suitable for
• the Levant, and some inquiry for printing cloth, both
.27-inch and 40-inch, but in other fabrics very little
business has been done. There have, indeed, been
rather extensive inquiries for shirtings and other
goods for shipment to India and one or two other
important markets, but the disinclination, and per-
haps, in some cases, the inability, to afford the usual
terms of credit with the present restriction of banking
accommodation, have prevented any transactions of
magnitude ; and, until there is some revival of con-
fidence, the business must necessarily be very limited.
In the yarn market there has been exceedingly little
business done,
decline. On the whole, there is very little encourage-
and prices again show a tendency to
ment to spinners and manufacturers to extend pro-
duction. Indeed, without some change in the aspect of
the market, it is to be feared that the hours of labour
must be again reduced. We hear from various quar-
ters that reductions of wages are quietly taking place,
the workpeople seeing the utter inutility of struggling
to resist them at a time when, even at the reduced
rates proposed, their employers are losing money by
everything they produce. From the official return,
prepared under; the direction of Captain Willis,
showing the state of employment, of the whole of
the operative classes, within the borough of Man-
chester, who are employed in the various descrip-
tions of mills and works specified, made up to yes-
terday, we find, on comparison with the return for
the previous week, that there are seven more cotton
mills working full time, with a full complement of
hands ; four less working full time, with a portion
only of the hands employed ; two more are working
short time, and five fewer are wholly stopped. There
are 1,457 more employed full time, and 102 more
employed on short time, who were previously wholly
out of employment. Of the total works, fourteen
more are now working full time, with a full com-
plement of hands; one fewer is working full time,
with a portion only of the hands employed; one
more is working short time, and fourteen fewer are
wholly stopped. There are altogether 1,904 more
operatives working full time, and 1,047 more work-
ing short time, who were previously out of employ-
ment. Altogether, the return evidences a most
decided improvement in the condition of the working
classes of this city.
WARRINGTON.—The Cockhedge Factory, which is
in the hands of Messr3. Hadfield and Frost, com-
menced working on Monday morning last; all the
rest remain idle at present.;
ROCHDALE.—There was a go9d attendance of
buyers present, and a decided improvement in the
demand for flannels, More goods were sold than on
any previous Monday for some time back. The late
failure of Mr. Jesse Barns, of Milnrow, continues
to be the general topic of conversation amongst mer-
cantile men. Every woolstapler in Rochdale is said
to be a creditor, either to a greater or less amount.
The bankrupt has absconded, and the numerous bills
afloat, accepted by him, will press hard upon the
drawers. There was some slight improvement in the
wool market, but not much change in prices.
I-LuArt...x.—We cannot yet note any improvement
in the trade of our Piece Hall ; for, although there
were more buyers in the market to-day, and more
pieces changed hands, yet they were principally
fancy goods of last years patterns, sold in job lots,
at prices much below what they could be replaced
for. Another failure has been announced to-day, but
it is understood that the liabilities are not to any large
amount.

BL4cKnuuN.—On Friday last notices were posted
in all the mills, of the town apprising the hands that
their wages would be reduced (generally 10 per
cent.) at the expiration of a month after date. In a
few instances the reduction will be 10 per cent. on the
spinners' and weavers' wages, and 71 per cent. on the
wages of the cardroom hands; but in the majority of
instances it will be uniform. Sir William Fielden
and Sons' mill started on Monday last, after a ces-
sation of about three months.—Manchester Guardian.
