RELATING TO THE LOUISA MARIA.
A telegraphic dlsp<•tch was received at Lloyd's yesterday after-
noon, at ten minutes to four o'clock, from the London station of the
south-Eastern Railway, dated 21 minutes to three, that a Dutch ship
named Louisa Maria, from Amsterdam for Batavia, had been on the
Goodwin Sands ; assisted off with loss of anchor, and leaky.
WRECK OF THE BRILLIANT.
A dispatch has this morning been received at Lloyd's front the
C .lonial-office, announcing the wreck of the Brilliant, front Cork to
Q ehec, near Lamaline, Newfoundland, on the 12th May last. The
,iew and passengers (about 161) in numb:•r), except one young female
and an infant, saved, and dispatched to their destination on the 18th
June, after having received every attention from the authorities.

STATE OF TRADE.
MANCHESTER, Auo. 18.—The market continues in the
same state as during the 'two last weeks. For some descrip-
tions of goods adapted to the home trade, and for good
printing cloths, there is a fair demand, at low prices. For all
other descriptions of cloth, and for yarns generally, there is
little inquiry, and, in some cases, prices are rather in favour
of the buyers.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, AUGUST 17.
We have had some little improvement in the demand for
flannels to-day, but no change in prices. The wool market
is much the same as that of the previous week.
HUDDERSFIELD, 'TUESDAY, Atia. 18.—We have had a
limited business to day in our Cloth Hall, very few buyers
having visited us. Among our merchants there has been a
fair amount of orders received.

',ZEDS, TUESDAY, Aua. 18.—We have no alteration to
report about our this day's market; stocks keep low and
prices steady, and our manufacturers pretty well emplo3 eci
to order. Sanguine hopes are entertained of a good fall-
trade to America, in cor.sequence of the new tariff; but with
respect to woollen cloths we see no more chance under the
new s) stem than under the old, so lang as no greater efforts
are made to meet the competition of the continental mapu-
facturers, whose productions are better liked in the United
States.—Manchester Guardian.

GLASGOW PIG IRON MARKET, AUG. IS.—AUTHORISED
REPORT.—The market opened this week without any change,
and remained so till Thursday, when the passing of the
American Tariff became known ; immediately after, prices
took a start of several shillings per ton, and the market has
closed with much firmness, at 735. for No. 3; 765. to 775. for

CHEAP BREAD.—At the end of last week a family
residing in Gorbals was seized with all the symptoms of
British cholera, after partaking of a piece of loaf bread, which
had bee purchased front a provision dealer in Norfolk..
street. A medical man having been sent for, examined
minutely the wretched-looking stuff which had been sold as
cheap bread," and declared that it was sufficient to cause
the symptoms referred to. A piece of the loaf has since been
submitted to respectable members of the bakingat
bhpsereonfsteien
ng
who say that it is quite unfit for human use. The result is
that the provision merchant, who is at present
the city on business, has been summoned before
magistrate in the Gorbals Police-court in connexion with the
case.—Glasgow Constitutional.

NOVEL QITA CL
The guardians of the Bedminster Union advertise in on
paper of to-day for an instructor of youth, and state that the
preference will be given, not to aperson accustomed to
tuition, but--to a tailor ! The successful candidate for the
office must, it seems, know how to turn hiscanemtoayard ;
be equally learned in breeches and books;
able to mend pens
and pinafores; rectify rents in grammar and garments ; and
patch up at the same time coats and copy books. That the
tutor tailor may never be out at elbows, the guardians
proffer him, as a reward for the manifold services above
mentioned, the munificent sum of 201. a year.—Bristol Gazette.
MEETING OF ODD FELLOWS AT SUNlSlTRY.—Yester-
clay afternoon, about 300 dined together at the Castle, pre-
sided over by A. Mitchison, Esq., one of the magistrates of
the county. There were also several others present. The
Rev. Mr. Vigne, the rector of Sunbury, preached a sermon
for them in the morning, and dined with them in the after-
noon. The meeting was highly respectable, and reflected
great credit on the members of the society.
DESPERATE FIGHT IN A STATION•HOUSE.—Yesterday
morning, at an early hour, one of the most desperate fights
took place between two females, and in the face of authority,
that ever was witnessed. Two females were brought up in
custody on cross charges of drunkenness at Bow-street, when
one, stronger than the other, without any fear of the autho-
rity before her, commenced a most murderous assault on her
companion. Everything for a time presented a most fearful
scene of confusion, but, with the assistance of six men of the
reserve, the fair pugilist was removed to a cell, threatening
the inspectors and every officer present with ulterior ven-
geance. The female is understood to be very respectably
connected, but 4 most desperate character whenEttrapj4

England respecting the potato crop, the demand was streovecl

The show of Barley was not large, yet that article nwsoo-
