THE WOOLLEN TRADE.

( From the Leeds Mercury of Saturday.)
LEEDS.—The market at both halls has been pretty brisk this
week. The stock of goods is reduced very low, and upon some
descriptions a trifling advance has been obtained. There has
also been a good demand for winter goods, and in consequence
trade continues good in the warehouses.
HUDDERSFIELD.—Considerable business continues to be done
in the Cloth-hall.

BRADFORD.—The piece market has been as brisk to-day as
for several weeks past. The stocks in the warehouses of
finished goods are rapidly diminishing. Prices of all descrip-
tions of goods are firm ; those of which there is a scarcity at
present cannot now be bought so well as previously. There
has been considerable demand for yarn to-day, and prices con-
tinue very firm. Scarcely an average stroke of business has
been done during the present week in long wool. The diffi-
culty spinners have experienced in getting their wool combed
has rendered their purchases comparatively sparing. The same
cause has occasioned an active demand for tops. Short wool
is much inquired for.
ROCIIDALE.—We had a dull market on Monday ; all sorts of
flannels were in very slack demand, and not much business was
done. There appeared to be a fair demand for dyed goods,
and grays were a little inquired after, but not much business
done in any of them ; prices continue the same. There is no
likelihood of prices coming lower; if they alter they must get
higher. The wool market was very slack indeed, very little
business was done, but prices are beginning to be rather stiffer,
and very likely to get higher as the prices were rather higher
at the late Bristol fair. If the wool market were more settled
either way the manufacturers would have increased confidence,
and would purchase more freely. •
YORK.—The market to-day (Thursday, Sept. 17,) was well
attended by buyers, and there being a good show of wool, part
business was done, though a few lots were left unsold. In
price no material alteration. Hogs, 16id. to 18d. ; bog and
ewe, 141 d. to 15d. ; ewes, 14d. ; moor wool, 6id. to 7d.
per lb.

WAKEFIELD, SEPT. 18. —The report we have given of the
wool market for the last two or three weeks applies equally to
this, and whilst short wool of all kinds, and the better de-
scriptions of long, fully maintain their prices, the dull sale of
the lower descriptions of combing has affected the price of the
latter in some degree.

The trade of Paisley is very brisk at present, parti-
nlarly in the richer descriptions of h arness work.

LONDON,
MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1835.

Flattering as were the marks of respect shewn to
Mr. O'CONNELL in his progress through the North
of England, they sink into comparative insignificance
before the splendid reception which he has experienced
in Edinburgh. The entry of the great Liberator of
Ireland into the capital of Scotland seems to have
united all the imposing grandeur of a triumph with
that which has seldom accompanied the triumphal car
—an overflowing cordiality of popular feeling. We
shall now wonder less than ever at the tenor mani-
fested by the Tories, when they found that Mr,

THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1835.

O'CON NELL had undertaken the " mission" which
he is so admirably fulfilling. They trembled instinc-
tively at the new impulse which they foresaw would
be given to those liberal opinions, the prevalence of
which is incompatible with, and fatal to, the existence
of Toryism. Nor has their instinct deceived them.
The result has fully verified their worst anticipations ;
for it cannot now be doubted that their principles and
their power have received a shock from which they can
never recover, by the " awakening" which Mr. O'CoN-
N ELL has produced, not only among the inhabitants
of the populous cities which he has visited, but in
the general mind of the nation.
The Tories feel that this effect has been produced
in an eminent degree, and they hare no other means
of counteracting. it than by resorting to their old and
stale trick of venting the most scurrilous abuse against
the man whom they regard as an enemy, because he is
the enemy of corruption and misgovernment. They
also pretend that the irtultitudes who have assem-
bled to testify their approbation of Mr. O'CONNELL'S
principles, and their grateful sense of his services in
the cause of 'Reform, have been. actuated solely by
curiosity 1 This is what they would have the people
believe, and happy would they be could they believe
it themselves—but they cannot. Self-deceivers as they
are in many things, they cannot but acknowledge in
their own minds, that it is to the cause and not to the
individual, that these distinguished honours are every-
where paid.
Mr. O'CoNNELL has illustrated this point with his
usual felicity, in his eloquent address to the people of
Edinburgh.. Can there," says the Learned Gen-
tleman,
" Be a stronger proof of this than the manner in which you
have this day received me, a humble, and personally an insig-
nificant individual—(No)—with an Irish accent which must
grate upon your ears—(Laughter)—and a Popish creed, which
ou have been taught to hate. With all these prejudices, na..
tional and religious, yet I have been received among you with
an enthusiasm which I have never seen exceeded even in the
green vales of my own lovely land.—(Loud cheers.) Is it
with pride that such a reception 'should inspire me ? Shall
I indulge my own vanity by attributing to anything connected
with myself the breathless attention with which this multitude
listens to me ? No know that it is not the man, but the
cause—it is not the individual, but the principle—it is not the
alvocate, but the plea—it is not the representative of a por-
tion of the people, but a friend of liberty to all mankind.—
(► Cheers.) Yes, and you have met to prove that you coincide
in these principles. In the eloquent address which has been
road, in which you have pronounced an elaborate panegyric
upon my services, you have given literal expression to ,my
principles."

Want of space compels us to omit the other extracts,
which we intended to lay before our readers. These
we must reserve till to-morrow, earnestly recommending
the attentive perusal of the addresses themselves, which
we have give❑ at full length elsewhere, and which
equal in eloquence and power any ever delivered by
Mr. O'CONNELL.

The French Journals of Friday and Saturday have
all been received. They bring important, but contra-
dictory intelligence from Spain. The most gratifying
part is that which states that a change of Ministry has
taken place in Madrid. On the 15th instant Count
TOREN°, finding that it was totally impossible for him
to manage the affairs of the country, opposed as he
was by the Carlists on the one hand and the Federalists
on the other, resigned. His resignation was instantly
accepted by-the QUEEN-REGENT, who was graciously
pleased to honour M. MENDIZABEL with her Com-
mands to re-construct the Cabinet. MENDIZABEL,
'who is reported to have consulted Mr. VILLIERS, the
English Ambassador, appointed General ALAVA, late
Ambassador at the Court of St. James's, Minister for
Foreign Affairs and President of the Council. The
other changes which have taken place in the Cabinet
are not yet known iii Paris. It is however presumed
that no person will receive an appointment who is
hostile to the Federalists, with whom now the Govern-
ment is most anxious to unite itself.

reignty. He is evidently a blood-thirsty superst4iousl
idiot, as devoid of reason'and knowledge as of courage
and humanity.
There is no domestic' news of any importance'
in the Paris journals. The only remarkable feature
about the Ministerial papers is the sudden alteration of
their tone with respect to England. The French Go-
vernment is manifestly very seriously annoyed at the
recent conduct of Mr. Villiers at Madrid, through
whose agency, it is reported, the QUEEN was led to join
the Federalists. The vexation of the Minister of the
Interior is so great, that he has given orders to delay
the publication of such telegraphic dispatches as are
favourable to the QEEEN'S cause ; and it is very doubt-
ful whether Lours PH IL L IPPE will not openly espouse
the Carlists' interests, in order to be revenged on Great
Britain. The truth is, that the movements of the Fede-
ralists, and the proclamation of the Constitution of
Cadiz, has driven the French Government into a state
of fear and anxiety bordering on frenzy.

Belgian and German Papers have been received
this morning. The latter bring accounts from Scu-
tari to the 15th of August, which state the armistice
between the garrison of the citadel and the citizens being
concluded, hostilities were about to commence, as the
insurgents placed no reliance on the promises made by
the PASHA.

The German Papers further announce the
uncommon plenteousness of the crops in every
part of the Austrian territory. The vintage
promises to be exceedingly abundant, although the
quality of the wine this year will be inferior to that
produced last season. In the principalities of Walla-
chia and Moldavia the price of corn has decreased one
fifth, owing to the great abundance of the harvest.
The German Papers express incredulity on the sub-
ject of the projected marriage of the Queen of
PORTUGAL with the Prince.of SAXE COBURG, who
ranks as a Marshal in the Austrian army.

In the Brussels Journals we find an order from the
Prefect of Police, charging the shopkeepers of Brus-
sels to keep their shops closed during the celebration
of the fetes, a necessary protection against thieves !
The police of Brussels must be a most efficient force
truly !

• The intelligence from the North of Spain is com-
pletely at variance with itself. According to a tele-
graphic dispatch published in the French Journals,
and dated Bayonne the 17th inst., a battle has been
fought near Bilboa, in which the troops under
ESPARTERO and the British Auxiliaries were beaten
by the Carlists. The loss of the English alone
amounted to one thousand men killed, and a great
number dangerously wounded. Some Journals state
that the English lost one thousand five hundred men ;
and others, again, that the loss considerably exceeded
two thousand, who all fell with their backs to the
enemy I
These statements are contradicted, in almost
every particular, by the correspondent of a Morning
Contemporary. He states that the skirmish, or
battle, as it is called in the language of the bulletins,
took place on the 11th, so near Bilboa, that the
report of the guns could be heard in the town.
The QuEEN's,troops consisted of from seven to eight
thousand men,, under the command of General Es-
''ARTERO and ESPELETA. The Carlists were twice
as numerous, consisting of fifteen battalions, com-
manded by Generals CASTOR and MORENO. The
Christinos were repulsed, but their retreat into the
town was conducted in the most orderly way. He as-
serts that the British troops had oily two killed and
five wounded, and that the men behaved with great
gallantry. General EVANS was present during the
latter part of the engagement. The duties of his
command obliged him to remain in the city at the
commencement of the action, although it did not
hindet him fiorn sending a body of auxiliaries to
assist ESPARTERO. Several Carlists of distinction
deserted to the QUEEN'S troops, and about twenty
others were made prisoners. The number of the
killed was not ascertained, but the wounded amounted
to nearly three hundred. One hundred Christinos
were made prisoners who - had sought --coneealmeiat.in
cottages near Bilboa. In all other respects this en-
gagement was wholly unimportant, and can have no
influence on the fortunes of either party.
Two other telegraphic despatches appeared in the
Paris Papers of Saturday, with reports highly favour-
able to the QUEEN'S cause. The first states that the
Carlist division of Navaresse were so closely hunted
by MONTES and GURREA, on the 14th, that to save
their lives they abandoned their baggage, threw away
their arms, and fled into France by the valley of the
Aure. The second despatch announces the appoint-
ment of CORDOVA to the Commandership-in-Chief
of the army in the North, together with the total.dis-
persion of the.Carlist recruits in Arragon.
DON CARLOS, as will be seen from an ex-
tract under the head of Spain, has appointed "Our
Lady of Tears" Generalissimo of his army, and
has given her an Oriflamme which is to re-
receive all the honours which Spaniards are in the
habit of paying to what they believe to be a God in-
carnate ! To the Orange partizans of " that most
pious and liberal monarch, CHARLES V.," we leave
the task of commenting upon this instance of princely
piety and patriotism I Thanks to the considerate
piety Of FERDINAND VII. the usurper's dolorous
Generalissimo has her wardrobe well supplied—a mat-
ter of considerable importance, we should presume, in
the present low state of the Prince's finances. Let no
true Protestant, however, hereafter pretend that a na-
tion panting for the blessings of civil and religious
liberty, ought, or could submit to the sway of
such a slave to gross superstition as Don
CARLOS. Were he in reality the lawful heir to
the Throne, the consecration of the Virgin's banner,
and the blasphemous order which preceded that fren-
zied act, ought for ever to exclude him frOm the Sove-

We have received, by the packet-ship Hibernia,
New York Papers 'to the Ist instant, and Montreal
Papers to the 29th of August. The following are
extracts :

" LOWER CANADA.—Tvvo proclamations have appeared in a
Quebec Extraordinary Gazette, from his Excellency the
Right Hon. the Earl of Gosford, together with the commis-
sion, appointing the Royal Commissioners.
" The first proclamation says, that his Majesty, by his letters
patent under the great seal of the United kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland, bearing date the Ist day of July, has been
graciously pleased to constitute and appoint his Excellency
Captain-General arid Governor in Chief in and over the pro-
vinces of Upper and Lower Canada. Ho also requires and
commands, that all and singular his Majesty's officers and mi-
nisters in the same province of Lower Canada, do continue in
the due execution of their several respective offices, places,
and employments.
" The second proclamation states, that whereas divers
addresses have been preferred by the House of General Assem-
bly of Lower Canada, in North America, and divers peti-
tions have been presented by the inhabitants of the said pro-
vinces, certain grievances of which the said House of As-
sembly have, by their said addresses and petitions sought re-
dress, and we being minded, as far as in us lies, to afford the
redress of every grievance, have therefore resolved to appoint
fit persons to proceed in our behalf to the said province, to
investigate all complaints, and therefore, for that purpose, made
choice of the Earl of Gosford, Sir Charles Archles Edward
Grey, and Sir George Gipps.
" His Majesty has also been pleased to appoint Thomas
Frederick Elliot, Esq.,:Secretary of the said Commission."
The Montreal Morning Conrier says that a very ques-
tionable rumour was put into circulation yesterday, Aug. 27,
that the inhabitants of Maine had made an irruption into the
disputed territory between Canada and that State, and driven
back the British who had settled there.

(From the New York Commercial Advertiser.)
LYNCH'S LAW.—WC regret to learn that an unlawful act
of violence was committed at Charleston, S. C., on Friday
morning last, upon the person of a man calling himself R. W.
Carroll, but whose real name is supposed to be Wood, and
who has carried on the business of a hair dresser for some
years in that city. His offence is alleged to have been a
fraudulent connection with slaves, as a receiver of stolen goods,
particularly cotton,' of which it is stated that he has been
known to ship for New York as much as seventy bales in a
single season, all fraudulently obtained from negroes whom he
had incited to plunder from their owners and others. He was
warned to leave the city, but, disregarding the admonition,
was forcibly taken from his residence on Friday morning be-
tween eight and nine o'clock, had twenty lashes inflicted upon
him, las theii stripped from his waist upward, tarred, and
equipped with a covering of cotton instead of feathers, from
the crown of his head to the soles of his feet. He was then
made to walk in procession through some of the principal
streets, and finally lodged in gaol, whence, the account says,
he will, of course, have to depart the city.'
" The Patriot, from which this account is taken, says that
the whole proceeding was conducted with the utmost quiet,
ness and order, several respectable citizens lending the coun-
tenance of their presence to the measure, while no other indi-
vidual was in any way molested.' "
