THAMES.

A great number of poor individuals came before
Mr. Yardley, the presiding magistrate, to complain
that the treasurer or manager of the St. shmes's Rat-
cliff Provident Society, an off-shoot of an excellent
institution, called the Whitechapel Penny Savings
Bank, had neglected to pay them various sums the
produce of their savings, and for which they had ap-
plied on Saturday, when they were informed that the
manager was not to be found. The case was one of
peculiar hardship, but was not very clearly explained
by the parties in attendance. It appeared that during
the past year a great number of poor men, women,
and children, have deposited their little savings from
tiiae to time in the Ratcliff Penny Bank, in the ex-
pectation of receiving back the whole with interest,
in one sum, near the end of the year, previous to
Christmas. A great many of the depositors received
back their savings on Friday, when the manager
suddenly left off paying and told the rest of the depo-
sitors to come next day for their savings from two
o'clock till five in the afternoon. The manager did
not attend, and under these circumstances the appli-
cants besought the magistrate to interfere.
Mr. YARDLEY asked if the society was enrolled ?
Ellis, the chief usher of the court, said the society
was not enrolled ; it was in the nature of a penny
savings bank, and was originally a clothing society

GLASGOW, DEC 21.—Cotton—The continued accounts
of a short: supply from America, couplid with the Sc'
tivity in trade, has ufford.d us a brisk market during the
week. The trade and speculators have operated freeljr,
and prices have advanced nearly Id. per lb. since fhl
day week. Middling Orleans may be quoted fully SuA
per lb. In goods and yarns a fair business is doing, 1113'
the terms looking upwards. Stocks are light, and dmanu-
facturers generally working to order. Ginghams
certain heavy classes of power-loom goods are the on Y
kinds which experience a dull trado, from the difficult/
of obtaining for them an adequate advance in tho sex,
rican market. Pig Iron—Our pig iron market had ed
perienced a slight improvement during the weak, sr3t
warrants free on board are now held at 44s—buyers sh
43s 6d to 43s 9d cash. There is not, however, Tune
doing. Bars are in fair demand, at 5/ is 6d to 51 15,s'
