MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
The supply of English Wheat was tolerably good, but of
very middling quality. For all descriptions tbe demand was
inactive,. at barely Monday's prices. So little was doing in
Foreign Wheat, both free and in bond, that the rates were
almost nominal. Barley and Malt were heavy, at drooping
currencies. All other Grain as au Monday.

MANCHWER, MARCK. 25.—The defeat of MiniSters on te
Factory Bill; , and the subsequent conduct 'of Sir "Jam'es
Graham on that measure,, have created in the minds of sill
parties hetei-of whatever creed of politics, the, most extra-
'ordinary feelings of surprise,. and in many instances clisgt.
The masters seem to\ care little for the result, asoieuhl ap-
pear from thefactthAt not a single meeting of the trade lim
betel held 'Olin the subject. It is true that a; party of mill-
,owners haVe. pmeeded to London with the , intention of .ali-

gone entirely on their own respprisibility, and not to reprie-

conviction, that the extraordinary eteps taken by, her Ma.,
lesty!s Government, in Opposing the" Ten Hours' Bill, after
the deliberate vote of the House of Conunons in its favour,
is calculated to create in the minds of the factory workers a
want of confidence in the governors of England, and a con-
viction that, they haVe no desire to Assist in the mental and
moral improvement of the labouring classes.
2. That notwithstanding the defeat of Lord Ashley on
the aen Hours' principle on Friday night—a defeat brought
about by the offiCialiinfluence Of the Government,--we are re-
solved never to relax in our exertions until the Ten Hours'
Bill is carried through Parliament ; and that we will avail
ourselves of . every advantage which constitutional right,
affords us, to bring about such a limitation of, the hours of
labour for children and young persons employed in factories.
