ST ATE OF TRADE.

(From the Manchester Cs"rdian.)
MANCHESTER.—There was a good inquiry yesterday for
nearly all descriptions of cloth, with a slight advance tirr.n
those descriptions which are in the most general request:,
and especially Oat shirting=. For yarn, too, there was an im-
proved detoand for the home trade, and an advance of id.
to id. per Ib. was obtained en some descriptions suitable
for that purpose. On the whole, the new year opens un-
der farvourable auspices for spinners and manufacturers,
unless their prospects should be blighted by a speculative
advance in the price or the raw material at Liverpool ; of
which there seems to be some danger, but for which, as it
seems to us, there is not the slightest grounds. The spinners,
however, have the remedy in their own hands. In case of
an advance arising from speculative purchases, all they have to
do is to buy only for their immediate wants ; when the pressure
of the stock, anti of the coming imports, will very soon restore
the market to its proper and natural state. We may probably
give some further ohservations on this subject in a future number.

ACCIDENT TO THE EARL OF AIOUNTCASHEi..—In
consequence of a statement having appeared in the socount
given of the meeting of Magistrates lately liehl at Fermoy, that
the Earl of Mountcashel had received but a slight injury by
his e a-riage being upset, we are authorised to say, that the
accident was of a much more serious nature. On Thursdub
the 21st, as his Lordship was returning from ti,e mountains,
where he had been shooting, the horse took fright, and running
away down a hill, the carriage in which he was set ted came in
contact with a stone fence at the side of the road wital, such vio-
lence as to separate the two hind wheels from the bod);• and be
was dashed oat with considerable force. He was taken up in-
sensible immediately afterwards by some persons whew were
pairing, and carried into an adjacent cottage. For the last week
he has been confined to his bed, suffering much pain, but is now
out of all danger.—Cork Paper.
DEATH OF GENERAL LovEDAy.—This gallant ni.,d
venerable officer, who died at Bath last week, at an ad-
vanced age, had seen much service in India, and his commis-
slots as Lieutenant-General (local rank) bore date 10th Ja-
nuary, 1837. He married Miss D'Esterre, sister to Mr. Nor-
cott D'Esterre, who was killed by Mr. O'Connell in a duel
near Dublin in 1815, by whom he had a numerous family.
ACCIDENT TO SIR RICHARD SUTTON, BART.—On
Friday last, the 29th ult., when Sir Richard Sutton was hunt-
ing at Greetham, near Oakham, Rutlandshire, his horse,
whilst taking a fence, accidentally put his foot into a deep
blind ditch, and threw the worthy Baronet with great vio-
lence over its head. It was greatly feared, from the severity'
of the fall, that Sir Richard had again broken his thigh.
Mr. Jackson, consulting surgeon, of Stamford, was imme-
diately sent for, and we are glad to hear, that although one
of the Baronet's knees is severely injured, he is likely again
to resume his favourite pursuit in the field before the end of
the season.
TEMPERANCE AMONG THE INDIANS.—There is no-
thing connected v. ith the progress of civilisation among
the western Indians more lamentable than the fact that
wherever the whites have gone they have invariably
introduced the use of intoxicating drinks among
the savages, and thus effected a deeper and more
permanent injury than they could have done in
any other way. A great deal of this sin lies at the
door of the detachments of the United States army which
have been stationed along our extreme frontier ; and we
are glad to see, by a letter from an officer in the in-
fantry at Fort Towson, Arkansas, published in a re-
cent number of the Black River Journal, that they
have undertaken to remedy the evil so extensively
done by the only means in their power, the promotion
of temperance principles and the establishment of tem-
perance societies among the Indians. A society was
organised among the soldiers about a year ago which
has weekly meetings, and numbers 150 members among
the soldiers themselves. The members, officerS, and
all connected belong to the army, and courts mat-
tial and military offences have almost wholly disap-
peared. At a small village named Doatsville, about a
mile from the garrison, a society has been organised
among the Indians, of whom 400 or 500 have become
members. The cause of temperance is said to be making
very rapid progress among the Choctaws in that vicinity.
