anxiety is felt to ascertain what course the Govern-
ment intends taking for the obtainment of further
pecuniary assistance.
At a meeting of the creditors of Mr. W. 0.
Young, held to-day, a statement of the probable
assets and liabilities was read. This gave liabilities
to the amount of 65,7501., and assets of 25,2491.
A long conversation took place with regard to a
Partnership which was supposed to subsist between
the above gentleman and Mr. Beckwith, of New-
castle ; and it was finally agreed that the meeting
should be adjourned until an investigation had
taken place in this matter. Mr. Pitcairn and Mr.
Stevens consented to act as inspectors.

BRADFORD, WILTS.—The house and grounds known
as the Priory in this town are about to be taken on a
long lease by some ladies in connection with Miss Sellon,
of Plymouth, and others, better known as the Sisters of
Mercy, and it is their intention to open an establishment
similar in all respects to those already in existence at
.I'l3'lllollth and Bristol. Great alterations are intended
to be made in the premise., and some new buildings
added for the purpose of providing accommodation for
the numerous members and pupils who are expected to
reside there.
STATIC OF TRADE.--NOTTINGHAM, Wednesday.—The
lace trade is in a very healthy condition. Manufacturers
are very sanguine as to its future prospects, and are
busily engaged preparing for the expected demand. The
transactions this week are satisfactory, and as the spring
advances the demand will be more so. The operatives
are exceedingly well employed at good wages. In
hosiery the home demand is quiet, but as more genial
weather prevails we shall soon have a more active trade.
S ,me buyers from the United States are in the market.
Raw material is still very dear, with little prospect of a
decline in price.
THE GREAT SHIP.—At the Liverpool town council
yesterday, Mr. Hodson, one of the members, stated that
e had recently had a conversation with Capt. Harrison,
commander of the leviathan ship which is being built at
the yard of Mr. Scott Russell, in reference to the accom-
modation to be provide,' for the Great Eastern at that
port. In his (Capt. Harrison's) opinion it would be quite
impossible to swing her in the Sloyne, the usual anchor-
age ground of the American steamers, as she would
there snap all the ropes that could be attached to her.
The accommodation suggested was a landing stage, to
Which she could be moored. Mr. Robertson Gladstone
(brother of Mr. J. Ewart Gladstone), speaking as an ex-
tensive shipowner, expressed a belief that another vessel
would never be built of the same size ; and it was there-
fore scarcely expedient, for the local authorities to pro-
ride special accommodation for the Great Easter). Mr.
Tyrer (also a large shipowner) was of opinion that the
Great Eastern would ride safely at anchor in the river.
The subject-than dropped.
