COBURG THEATRE—We art; pleased to find
that our young favourite, Miss MEarr, takes her benefit
at this Theatre on Monday next, on which occasion Master
BURTOX (only five years old), another prodigy of the same
prodigious school as Master BURKE, will sing in character
the comic song of " The Poacher." Miss Msair herself
will undertake (and we doubt not with much ability) the
interesting part of Blanche of Devon, in the Lady of the
Lake.

A late number of the Washington National
Intelligencer complains of an unfair manoeuvre having been
lately practised by some merchants of Liverpool, for the
purpose of annihilating the American manufacturing in-
terests in cotton and wool. It appears, according to the
statement of the above-mentioned paper, that during the
last week in January, there arrived at New York, from
Liverpool, 295,000 yards of calicoes, and 998 pieces of
woollen cloths; at Philadelphia, 132,000 yards of calicoes,
and 420 pieces of woollen cloths; at Baltimore, 70,000 yards
of calicoes, and 662 pieces of woollen cloths; at Boston,
70,000 yards, and at Charleston, 170,000 yards of ca-
licoes. Total, 737,000 yards of calicoes, and 2,080
pieces of woollen cloths. All these goods were, immediately
on their arrival, exposed for public sale, and offered at the
lowest prices. The consequence seems to have been, that
the same quality of articles of American manufacture could
no longer be disposed of even at the immense reduction of
80 per cent. Several manufactories have. therefore, been
obliged to suspend their labours in various parts of the
United States.— Times.

The Paella of EGYPT has lately instructed his
agents at Marseilles not to sell any of his cottons st any
price under 110 francs. He renders them responsible for
the difference, should they venture to sell under that price,
and offers the reimbursement of the advances which have
been made on his consignments : 87 frolics for the pre-
ceding, and 90 for the last crop, have therefore been re-
fused. Letters from Alexandria of the above date say,
that shipments of cottons will not take plate for some time.

in fixing irrevocably the price of his cottons on the Mar-
seilles market, has anticipated a rise, from his determina-
tion to send no more for a long period. The stock of sugars
on the Marseilles market had been reduced up to the 6th
inst. to a few casks of the raw produce, for which the holders
demanded a very high price; but the refiners would nut
purchase on their terms, being confident that the new sup-
plies would soon arrive,
