STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, JAN. 10.
A moderate business only was done in the cloth
' market this morning, and buyers appeared disposed to
operate quite as cautiously as on Tuesday. Yet a quiet
demand from time to time, and sometimes on ether than
market days, clears off what accumulations of stock may
have begun to take place, and prices are mostly steady.
Yesterday it is understood that a considerable quantity
of cloth wan purchased for export. The low stocks with
which we have commenced the year give sellers a great
advantage. " The past year will be a remarkable one
in the history of the cotton trade (remark Messrs. John
Ponder and Co. in their Overland Circular, via Mar-
seilles, published yesterday), as, notwithstandihg the
war in which we are engaged, the consequent dear and
stringent state of the money market, the high price of
grain and almost every article of produce (a combination
rarely continuing long), stocks of cotton goods have been
kept down. This has been caused by the determination
of producers not to accumulate, and the consequence has
been to them a most remunerative trade. They may pos-
sibly soon derive some benefit from the losses thus sus-
tained, as the low prices which have been current
have no doubt forced goods into new channels, and
developed a trade that is likely to go on increae-
ing." In shirtings the demand of the last month has
been good for the better qualities of 40-inch, and of 45
and 54-inch cloths, all of which are realising full prices.
In printing cloths the low descriptions are most in de-
mand. In yarns there is only a moderate business, and
prices are slightly against sellers seeking customers.
NOTTINGHAM, JAN. 10.
In the hosiery trade there has been a good deal doing,
and in many departments the trade is brisk.
We cannot report so favourably of the lace trade, the
transactions for the new year being as yet very few and
unimportant. There are some buyers from the conti-
nent in the market, who have not yet operated to any
extent. It is probable that the present war will have
the effect of opening a market for our manufactures in
Asia Minor and elsewhere, in which places we have not
heretofore been in connection. We have no alteration
to report in the price of yarns.

ACCIDINT TOTE EARL JKBMTN.—We
(Bury and
Norwich. Post) regret to learn that our much-respected
snip while out shooting
representative, the Earl Jermyn, is at present suffering
some inconvenience from a shot which struck his lora-
after Christmas-day, and which penetrated just above
the right eyebrow. The shot entered with some force,
in Hampshire on the Thursday
and the wound covered his lordship's face with blood at
the time, but without, we are assured, causing much
pain. The shot has not yet been extracted.

MONEY MARKET

AND
COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE

-rwo

The Liverpool Cotton Market yesterday closed
heavily, but not lower than on Wednesday. The
sales were 6,000 bales, 1,000 for export and on
speculation, including 200 Pernam and Maranham,
6d. to 61d.; 100 Bahia, 6d. to Old. ; 400 Egyp-
tian) SFd• to 7d. ; and 300 Surat, 3d. to 40. per
lb. The Railway Share Market was steady, at a
slight advance on Wednesday.
The Colonial Produce Markets have continued
very inactive, and the prices of most of the princi-
pal staples have tended downwards. Sugar has
been taken in at public sales, holders being firm.
Coffee has realised steady prices, but the coloury
kinds of plantation have been Gd. cheaper. Tea
has ruled exceedingly quiet, and also rice. In
spices very little has been done, and pimento, cloves,
and mace have receded. Cocoa and cotton have
net attracted much attention. Cochineal is firm,
and tallow steady.
There has been little alteration this week in the
prices of American Securities. The following are
the current quotations, as given by Messrs. D.
Bell, Son, and Co.:—

THAMES.

JUVENILE BURGLARS AND MARINE STORE-DEALERS.
-Dennis Driscoll and James Burns, two boys, the vic-

tims of parental neglect and depravity, were brought
before Mr. Yardley, charged with breaking into a dwell
ing-house in Narrow-street, Limebouse, breaking up a
cistern, and stealing 30 lbs. of lead therefrom. -
Edward Norton, in the employ of Harper, Burns, and
Co., bottle-merchants, left a dwelling-house in which he
had lodged on Friday, when everything was safe. On
the following evening he discovered that the house had
been entered, a cistern broken up, and part of it carried
away. The thieves got over a high wall into a yard,
and then broke into the house.
Charles Abbott, a police-constable, No. 322 K, said
he found the stolen lead in the shop of a marine store-
dealer, named Aun Scofield, in Fore-street, Limehouse.
Mrs. Scofield said she sold tobacco, and only bought
a few little things. The boys brought in the lead to
ht r shop on Saturday night, and said they got it honestly,
and it was quite right ; and also said, "Don't be afraid
to buy it, Mrs. Scofield." She would not have bought
the lead if she (lid not think it was honestly come by.
Mr. Yardley—You are thinking of your own defence
more than giving evidence properly.
The prisoners, in defence, said they saw a boy con-
cealirg the copper behind a brick wall, and they took it
and sold it to Mrs. Scofield, who said, "Put it behind
the counter ; make haste, or the policeman will be here.
They have taken one boy out of my shop." Tley threw
the lead behind the counter by her direction, and left the
shop, and went again for the money. She told them to
bring all the lead they could.
Mr. Yardley—Do you mean to say you robbed the
thief ?

Burns —Yefi, sir; another boy took the lead out
of the house, and we sold it, and because we did not
give him his regulars (equal share of the proceeds) he
peached upon us, and told the policeman to look after us.
An Irishman, named Daniel Donovan, said he was
the uncle of the boy Driscott, who had never been in
trouble before, and that the old woman Scofiell, of 68,
Foie-street, was the ruin of half the boys in Limehmise,
for she gave them tobacco, ginger-beer, cigars, and
sweetmeats for anything they could bring her.
Mr. Yardley was sorry the marine store•dealer had
been put into the witness-box. She ought to have been
charged as a receiver. Ile directed the policeman if he
found any more stolen property in Mrs. Scofield's shop,
to take her into custody and charge her as a receivers

AUSTRIA.

The Vienna correspondent of the Weser Gazette
says :—"M. de Hubner will occupy himself chiefly
during his stay in this city with the preparatory
examination of the questions which will be dis-
cussed in the approaching congress of Paris. It is
thought that the King of Naples will despatch a
plenipotentiary to the congress.
It is thought hero
that in the question of the Principalities and of
Montenegro the majority of voices in congress will
approve of the views entertained by Austria."

is almost completely recovered from the wounds
which ho had received in his affair with the pirates

REFORMS IN TURKEY.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 26.—1 t cannot be too
often repeated that the chief cause of the mistakes
made by Europeans with regard to Turkey arises
from the circumstance that they attempt to intro-
duce their own ideas unmodified, instead of adapt-
ing them to the peCuliar character of the country.
The result of this mistake is that most, not to say
all, attempts at reforming Turkey, iu a Enro-
-1 'wan sense of the word, have become caricatures,
which possess most of the bad features of those
same institutions in Europe in a prominent degree
without having one single good one in them. Thus
the attempt of introducing a regular adminis-
trative system has led to an expensive, corn-
licatand corrupt bureaucracy ; the attempt
to form rm
a European army has produced
au amphibious force, neither regular nor

PRIOI3 oP GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris
about 6 per mille premium, and the short exchange on
London is 25.171 per 11. sterling. On comparing these
rates with the English Mint price of 31. 17s. lOid. pew
ounce for standard gold, it appears that gold
nearly 6.loths per cent. dearer in Paris Oxen in Loa.
don. By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 424
per mark, and the short exchange on London is 13•4 per
U. sterling. Standard gold, at the English Mint price,
is therefore.about 14-10 the per cent. dearer in Hamburg
than in London. The course of exchange at New York
on London for bills at 60 days' sight is 1091 per vent.,
which, when compared with the Mint par between the
two countries, shows that the exchange is slightly in
favour of England ; and, after making allowance for
charges of transport and difference of interest, the pre-
sent rate leaves a small profit on the importation o
gold from the United States.

PREVENTION OF BURG-11,ARY AND FIRE,

Last evening a party of gentlemen assembled at No.
145, Regent-street, to hear Dr. Bachhoffner explain an
iagenion.s contrivance invented by a Mr. Burgess, for
the prevention of burglary and fire. The expedient is of
the simplest, but of the most efficient character. It con-
sists of a spring concealed in every door, window, shut-
ter, or desk to which it may be thought proper to apply
it, and it is se arranged that when any attempt at bur-
glarious entry, or even at tampering with a lock is made,
an electric circuit is completed, which causes an alarm
bell to ring in the bedroom of the master of the house.
In the day time the circuit can be shut off by turning a
i handle ; but so long as the watch is set, neither ingress
nor egress is possible without the knowledge and per-
mission of Paterfamilias. The denizens of Noting-hill
rn,pra:,:idthed waerefore, for the future, rest in peace without
4ets'asY
LaTokitg the aid either of revolvers or man-traps ; and,
Always that the public will avail themselves of
Mr. Burg
clever invention, the burglary interest
may as well direct its attention to some more honest and
profitable industry. An Englishman' house may now
become his castle in a sense hardly contemplated by
the originator of that famous apothegm. Even fire
will find it difficult to ,break out without leave. The
contrivance for curbing the " devouring element" is con-
structed on the principle of Brequet's thermometer ;

circuit will be completed, an '

SPAIN.

The Madrid Gazette of the 3d contains a Royal
decree, which enacts that as a proof of the Queen's
" Royal affection for her beloved sister the Duchess
de Montpensier," the child to whom the Duchess
is about to give birth shall enjoy the privileges of
an, Infante of Spain.
The Madrid Post-office is making arrangements
for sending two mails to Paris daily.
A company, called the Franco-American, had
completed its arrangements for establishing regular
steam communication between Spain and Cuba,
and the first steamer is to sail from Cadiz for that
island on the 26th of this month.

A letter from St. Petersburg in the Nord of
Brussels says :--"Everything is changed in the
itinerary of the Emperor and Empress, who will
now go to Kiew, as was their first intention. They
will proceed to Toula ; and thence, on Oct. 9, will
make a solemn entry into this capital, just as they
did at Moscow."

In consequence of the generally prevailing finan-
cial crisis, the Chamber of Commerce of Stutgardt
has addressed a petition to the Minister praying it
to use all its influence in the monetary conferences
at Vienna, that gold may be as soon as possible
adopted as the legal standard throughout all the
States of the Zollverein, as being the most effectual
means of putting an end to the present crisis.

MARKET NEWS.--(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
The supply of English wheat on sale in to-day's market
was very moderate, and greatly out of condition. The
few prime samples on the stands sold readily, at prices
fully equal to those realised on Monday. Other kinds were
slow in sale, but not cheaper.
Tie imports of foreign wheat are 11,120 quarters. Most
descriptions ruled steady, but only a retail business was
transacted in them, at full quotations.
Barley and malt changed hands steadily, at fully late
rates.
There was a steady detuand far oats, at very full paces.
Both beans and peas moved off steadily, at citron:to
rates.
Flour was firm, but not dearer.

THAMES.

DESTITUTE SEAMEN.—Mr. Levy, of Ship Alley,
Wcllclose-square, came before Mr. Salle, this morning,
directly the magistrate had taken his seat, and pointing
to three foreign seamen who accompanied him, said they
were in a destitute condition.
Mr. Selfe—Under what circumstances t

Mr. Levy—These men formed part of the crew of the
American ship Glad Tidings, and shipped at New Orleans.
They arrived in the London Dock last Friday, and on Sun•
day morning they left the ship with the rest of the crew.
On Monday morning the seamen returned to the ship
and the captain was not on board, nor did any officer
give them any directions. On Tuesday they saw the
captain and asked for their wages and clothes.
The captain said he would not pay them any
wages ; but they might take their clothes away. They
asked for a written pass to enable them to take their
clothes out of the dock, and he refused to give them
one. Under these circumstances they applied to the
American Consul, who told them to return to the ship.
Yesterday (Thursday) they returned to the vessel, and
the second mate told them the captain had prohibited
them from working any more, and told them to leave
the ship. The men were now entirely destitute.
Mr. Selfe—What country do they belong to I
Mr. Levy—They are Hanoverians.
Mr. Selfe was of opinion the best course for the men
to pursue was to go to the Hanoverian Consul.
Mr. Levy—They complain of being ill•used on the
voyage. They have been struck with ropes very severely,
and demanded redress.

Mr. Selfe could not give them redress for the alleged
assaults. He had no jurisdiction over offences com-
mitted on board American ships at sea, but he bad no
objection to grant summonses against the master of the
American ship for detaining the seamen's chests and
effects.
_.

Mr. Levy—The seamen are without clothes and desti
tute. _ _

Mr. Selfe—l cannot help them. Let them see the
Hanoverian Consul. They may have summonses against
the captain for detaining their property in the London
Dock. _

Mr. Levy—Will you give them summonses to recover
their Tag 7

Mr. S;lfe—l have no jurisdiction over contracts made
with the captains of American ships at New Orleans,
The Merchant Shipping Act only has referrence to British
seamen in American ships.

commons, stated that on the previous night he was in
Regent-street, when his attention was called to the pri-
soners, who appeared to be in liqoor, and who were
pushing indiscriminately up against the passengers in
the street. The woman, who had a black sooty sauce-
pan in her hand, attacked and struck several ladies with
it, and blackened their shawls and dresses. The ladies
became alarmed and ran away, and in order to prevent
prisoners from committing further mischief he undertook
to give the prisoners into custody.
The prisoners, who pleaded drunkenness as an excuse,
were each of them committed for seven days to the
House of Correction.
