PAISLEY ADVERTISER, July 31.
STATZ OF TaAnno-Several branches of our trade have
bur in a languid condition for some months. There is a eoa.
'likable number of weavers out of employment. and dikes
rte silk plain middles are scarce. The India imitation
ibmeigs, the most important part of the trade, we are glad
to Isson, have Waited decided symptoms of reviving aaL
This is the more mdsfactory, as a great number
of Moshe egad on this branch for cutting, sewing, Ac.
The smmaketunes much to their honour and the Internet of
the Wok, are firmly supporting the table of pries apse' to
in July last. During this month, a considerable numbered
weavers have been engaged for harness petticoats, whamw
eiseviths, common all-overs, and sprigs, as well as fee we'
shawls. We had thought that Angola shawls had besse me.
tlrely est of the market, until we learned that a warehouse
in town had been engaging weavers for them, Man advents
in the weaving price of 9 per cent. The demand foe area
borders. common imitation shawls, and mbar is not nearly ea
brisk as it was. The silk transparent ewe Usk less boa
fiat, and still continues so, and a comideselie amble of
those who are engaged at this branch, me ant of
went, but it is expected that the approaching seranadmientt
improve the demand for the more riches fabrics of this
beautiful manufacture. Flower designers and llowtr laahtre
are generally in full employ, which augurs well for a speedy
improvement in trade. Upon the whole the eondition of the
weavers has been rather desponding.
Bowzrwo.—A private match betwixt four Paisley and
four Glasgow bowlers, took place on Monday, on Mr.
Gebbiee green, Port Eglinton. It was most admirably
contested, the parties being gamesters at 30, the Glasgow
party winning by the odd shot. A public challenge has
been since sent to the Glasgow players, 12 or 16 each side,
the game not to be decided until the parties play both on
Port Eglinton and the Paisley bowling greens. The match
between Kilmarnock and Paisley bowlers commenced on
Wednesday last by 12 of our players going there. After a
keen contest, in which the greatest good humour prevailed,
the Kilmarnock bowlers took the lad by nine shots.
Sneer Snesanta.-51r. William Fulton of Spreulston's
sheep shearing took place on Wednesday the 110th instant.
As usual, it was a gay and animated scene, upwards of 500
persons being present. All the rural beaux and belles for
several miles around were present. and the most respectable
farmers and their families, in the surrounding districts.—
The sheep shearing was finished in two hours, after which
the whole party sat down to a substantial dinner, served up
in real hearty country style, worthy of the best days of old
Scotland. Prosperity to their worthy host—to the agri-
cultural interest—to the rearing of cattle and sheep, with a
great number of appropriate toasts, were drank with all the
honours.

Broomielaw 83 wedders and 200 lamb's, which had left the

on the 24th instant with 131 passengers. She was only 17
days in port, and 42 from New York, when she sailed from
Greenock. It stems that all the emigrant paupers go to

" rat believing that the Church of Rome is marked out
in the Divine Record as an object of peculiar displeasure to

petitioners must regard the grant in question, as not only
highly objectionable in principle, but in its consequences to
the country deeply danglious.
" On these grounds yo* petitioners regret that reasons of
expediency were ever employed to justify this measure, in
opposition to the warnings and interdicts ofthe Divine Worth

the policy on which it is founded will be disapproved of and
abandoned."
