THE GLOVE TRADE!.

Without presuming to predict what wilt be then
ultimate consequences of those relaxations to our
commercial code, which have been effected by
his Majesty's Ministers, we cannot but regret the
distress which, it is evident, will (certainly for a
time, and perhaps permanently) be occasioned
to some branches of our manufactures by the
introduction of foreign goods. of the distress
arising from this cause to the silk trade (and
which has unhappily occurred at this severe sea-
son) we have already spoken. %ire are now sorry
to add, that the Glove Trade, which gives ern•
ployinent to such numbers in this city and
bourhood, is already partially affected, and ap.r
pears likely to suffer still more. It will be recol.
lected that in order to enable the English glove.'
manufacturer to meet the foreigner upon somewhat
equal terms,Ministers conceded that foreign leather'
should be admitted for one year before French
gloves were admitted, it being presumed that the
home manufacturers having the advantage of
making goods with foreign skins, (which are
better prepared than the English,) would.- be
enabled to meet the Foreigner upon profitabie
terms; we fear, however, the result will prove
that this anticipation was erroneous, for we find
that the price of skins is so high in Italy, and
other parts of the Continent, (chiefly In conse.
quence of the large purchases of French menu.
facturers), that it will be out of the power of the
English maker to, compete with the foreigner,
although the latter pays ss. per dozen pair of
gloves duty from the kth of -July next. it is a
fact, too, perfectly well known, that the facility
of smuggling gloves, under the regulations laid
down for their importation, is so great, that the
duty affords a very slight protection indeed.
Under those circumstances, the French manufac.'
turers of gloves (like those of silk) are actively
employed, while the English manufacturer feels
so diffident of his ability to meet them, that he
will probably dismiss great numbers of his hands.
We hear that the Trade mean to make one Mora
effort to avert the calamity which threatens-'them,
by presenting petitions to the Legislature, when
Parliament assembles. A petition likewise from.
the City and County generally (as they are so
much benefited by the employment of so large. a
Part of the labouring poor), would be veil desk.
able.-- (J Vorcester Journal.)

the Greeks, and who must be 'well informed of
the spirit of opposition which shewed itself in all

Alexander, is filled with the most serious alarms
for the fate of her own family.
