THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA.—By the Vir-
ginian, Captain Harris, which sailed from New York
on the 13th, we have received papers to the above
date. We subjoin as many extracts as we have space
for. The news from the United States is the most
important, bearing as it does upon the domestic and
financial affairs of the Union.
The disturbances at Harrisburgh seem to have con•
tinued up to the latest advices. Both parties claimed

he eminence, but the military were in possession of
.he Arsenal and the Town-hall.

It was reported at New York that another invasion
of Upper Canada had taken place, and that the patriots
had taken Fort Malden, and one hundred and seventy-

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JAN. 3.
There appears to have been an increase in the import of Butter
during the last twelve months, as compared with the year previous,
of about 42,000 firkins—and the present stock is estimated at about
35,000 firkins, the bulk of which is not of the best description.
The market continues exceedingly dull, and the fine open weather,
now experienced, adds to the apathy among dealers. Prices may
be noted Is to 2s down.—Pickled Butter dull at our quotation.—
The stock of Beef and Pork in first hands is trivial, of the former
we have imported about 860 tierces less, and of the latter about
3000 barrels less than in the year IS37.—Holders demand, with
much firmness, the annexed rates.- Bacon is steady, and Hams
very scarce and much wanted.
How the currency of Butter may henceforward rule, will in a
great measure depend upon the prosperity of the manufacturing
districts—those great sources of our northern consumption.—We
are quite of opinion, notwithstanding the croaking of the Cham-
ber of Commerce people in Manchester, and notwithstanding the
dearness of food, that there is still a vigour and healthfulness about
trade generally, which affords a sufficient guarantee of the opera-
tive population being employed at compensating rates of wages—
we consequently look to a revival in the Butter trade ere long.
Prom' all appearances Irish Provisions are likely to continue
high.

PROSPECTS OF CANADA.

(From the Morning Herald.)
From the prospects of our loyal fellow-subjects in Canada
appear to be as dreary as ever. The presence of Mr.
Thomson, as Governor, is, of course, in- itself a stimulent
to the machinations of the traitors who infest these noble
provinces—for Mr. Thomson is notoriously linked up with
that party in this country which is directly chargeable with
the guilt of the recent Canadian tebellions. Mr. Tomson's
politics are scarcely distinguishable from those of Mr.
Joseph Hume—the friend of Mackenzie—and in those
questions of political economy which most ►directly affect
the well-being of the royal Canadians, Mr. Thomson's
opinions are absblutely identical with those of Kilkenny
Joseph. The present Governor-General of Canada is,
therefore, from the very nature of all his political opinions,
an instrument for the furtherance of the interests of the
democratic party in the United States ; while his favourite
theory on the subject of the timber trade marks him out
as l'tr natural enemy of the loyal British party in our
No the American dominions. What a successor for Sir
John Colborne ! The" sympathisers" of the United States
would appear to appreciate fully the character of the whig
representative of the Queen of England. They are likely,
if not checked by men very different from Mr. Thomson,
to realize that ingenious gentleman's views, and " open the
timber trade," effectually, by taking that trade, and the
Canadas along with it, in their own hands. The following
announcement is, at all events, suspicious :
" The United States author►ties are taking measures, in
concert with Mr. Fox, the British Minister at Washington,
for immediately suppressing any fresh outbreak that may
possibly take place on the Canadian frontier, of which there
would. appear to be again some apprehensions as the winter
advances. Gen. Scott has received orders to proceed Im-
mediately to the Canadian frontier, and to examine the
whole line. The troops which were to have marched to
Florida have been ordered to change their route to the
Canadian lines. This course has been adopted from in-
formation received, both by our government and by Mr.
Fox, the British minister."
These demonstrations on the the Yankee " sympathisers"
prove that these benevolent gentlemen fully understand the
difference between Mr. Thomson and Sir John Colborne
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1839-12-10

THE HILL COOLIES.

My own estimate of the DiliCoolies, from what I saw of
them, was, that they would prove a total failure. Physically,
they were immensely inferior to the African, whose muscular
form, as it appears in health, is a perfect anatomical picture.
The Hill Coolie has more of the dwindled form of the native
Indian of the South American continent. He appears to be
of a patient rather than a discontented character, as if deter-
mined with a natural honesty to fulfil his character, but to
look forward with delight to the completion of it. Imported
without their women, and not assorting cordially with the
nezroes, they were never calculated to take root in the soil.
I did not see either the Maltese or Portuguese importations;
but I believe that, as far as the influence of climate upon the
constitution, none of them materially- suffered ; and that,. as
far as ability for labour was concerned, they were one and all
inferior to the Creole negro, when he is best disposed to
exert himself in agricultural industry. Resort-has, 'I believe,
been had to the Spanish Main, where the services of a Creole
race, called Pieones, have been obtained, Init in no great
numbers. These are of Spanish origin, more or less inter-
mixed with African blood, and of course well inured to all
the vicissitudes of a tropical climate; they are, moreover,
free to come and go, and do in fact pass to the island of
Trinidad, where they often assist in getting in the crops ; • but
they are spoken of as an indolent race, inconstant long to any
kind of labour, with no great desire to leave their native land,
where they lead a vagrant hunting life, and only pass to. our
Colonies to obtain the means of purchasing some luxury or
enjoyment, which is a momentary object of desire : this
gained, they return to their home and their harranOck ; which
last is the seat of that dreamy existence in which Spanish
South Americans of every quality pass their days, until the
evening tempts them to the guitar and the dance, at which.
time they appear the happiest- people in the world ; and I
should think would be :o, if there was no balance-sheet to
be settled in the other.

THEFT FROM A SHOP.

A married woman, named Ann Doran, was charged with
stealing some silk handkerchiefs from a hop. Mr. Edward
Cooper, silk mercer and draper, Whitechapel, stated that on
Saturday last, about four o'clock in the evening, the prisoner,
in company with a man, not in custody, came into his shop,
and asked to be shown some expensive silk handkerchiefs,
which were shown to them by his son. Witness having
some suspicion of his customers, took it upon himself to
serve them. While doing so, he had a strong suspicion that
the prisoner had taken something from the counter, and con-
cealed it under her shawl. Not, however, being certain of
the fact, he followed the prisoner and her companion into
the street, and finally seeing her endeavouring to cover some-
thing under her shawl, he stopped her. A police officer
came up at the time, and witness then E %IV a handkerchief
piece drop from her, which was picked up. It consisted of
four silk handkerchiefs, which, on being produced, he iden-
tified as his property.
The prisoner was defended, but nothing was elicited to
shake the case against her.
Mr. Cooper's son (the case being put off in order txt he
might appear as a witness) stated that he had not sold any
thing to the prisoner or her companion.
The prisoner strongly implored the mercy of the court ;
but having been before three times tried and convicted. she
was committed to take her trial at the sessions. Before be-
ing taken down, she said that one of her children, out of
three, then in Bridewell, was on the point of death, and re-
quested that she might be allowed to take it with her to the
Borough Gaol.
The fact of the child's illness being ascertained, Mr. Rush-
ton immediately complied, staling that it should be attend-
ed to.

AN UNRULY SON.

A young man, named Kennedy, was charged by his Own
mother, a respectable woman, with violently assaulting her
in the dead of the night, throwing stones at and breaking the
windows, threatening to take her life, and behaving other-
wise in a most disgraceful manner, so that his parents were
in constant terror of their lives. _

Ihe complainant said that she had provided her son with
clothes and everything comfortable, but that he had been in
the habit of pawning and making away with them.
Mr. Parkinson, keeper of the general bridewell, said that
the prisoner was a most outrageous character, and had often
been brought into court for striking his father and mother.
On the last occasion he was held to heavy bail, which his
father, hoping for his amendment, bad himself procured.
Mr. Rushton said that the conduct of the prisoner was so
shameful, that he should take care it should not be repeated,
at least for some time to come ; and if he again ap,eared in
that court, he should be dealt with with the utmost severity.
He then required that the prisoner should pay a,fine of
or, in default, be imprisoned two months ; and, further, that
he should find bail to keep the peacc—himself in £lOO, and
two sureties in £5O each. The prisoner was then put down.

TREATIES IN REFERENCE TO THE SLAVE TRADE.

In my opinion, our government would be fairly entitled to
determine, upon their own authority, in whatever way ex-
isting treaties required, that our cruisers should carry the

* "Demerary has been cited as one of the strongest in-
stances of a deleterious atmosphere, but when we come to
examine facts it turns but otherwise." After stating these
facts he proceeds, " Thus, that which is termed our most
unhealthy West India Colony has, even as it regards its
working population, a greater duration of life than the rich
and poor of some of the principal parts of Europe :" then
comparing Demerary with Rutlandshire, London, Preston.
Leeds, and Bolton, he says, "The result is in favour of the
duration of life in the colony of Demerary, as compared with
a healthy county in England, and a still greater and increa•
sing difference in its favour in comparison with the towns
above cited." The military is of course excluded from these
statistics, who unquestionably afford no proof of the especial
salubrity of the West Indies.

(From the Glasgow Courier.)
CAPTAIN MARRYAT'S SIGNALS.
The following is a copy of a letter received in Glasgow
from Mr. Court, Secretary to the Underwriter's Association.
Liverpool

" Marryat's code of signals being now used by our Holy-
head and Liverpool telegraphs, I would suggest that you
instruct all veesels to or from the Clyde, passing Holyhead,
to make their signals to that station, (not their numbers only,
but the ports whence they are from and whither bound,) and
the same will be sent you in my letter. The -, belonging
to your port, is the only vessel that, as yet, has made good
use of her flags, hiving hoisted the port she was from as well
as her number. I wish shipmasters to make it an invariable
rule to hoist the ports they are from, number of dayspassage,
and all well, when such is the case. The captains of this
port, having been long accustomed to our late paltry local
flags, are, not used to Marryat's ; and I hope your masters of
ships, who are, no doubt, well acquainted with them, will, in
a spirit of friendly emulation, set a good example, and not
spare their bunting either in he channel or at sea. I have
taken great pains' to obtain the introduction of Marryat's
code into this port, and I am happy to say that most of our
shipmasters are very favourable to it."
We recommend our contemporaries to give the above every
publicity, as we are well aware that it only requires to be known
by shipmasters to be acted on. One great advantage is, that
it incurs no expense, as there is scarcely one vessel in a hun-
dred in the foreign trade but has got Marryat's code of signals
on board. Mr. Court deserves much praise for the interest
he takes in all matters connected with the reporting of ships.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, DEC. 7.

We have this week to report the arrivals, coastwise and to Ireland,
of 6730 qrs. of Wheat, consisting chiefly of free foreign, brought
from the eastern coast. Of Irish Oatmeal the imports consist of
upwards of 9500 loads; but, with these exceptions, the supplies
of free Grain, &c. have been light. From the United States we
have received 23,700 barrels of Flour, nearly the whole of which
has gone into bond : 557 brls. have been duty paid, there have also
been released 184 qrs. Barley, 1940 qrs. of Peas, and 270 qrs. of
Beaus. Old Wheat has continued to meet a good demand: the
week's business includes almost daily purchases ' for shipment
coastwise and to Ireland, and, with rapidly diminishing stocks,
prices show a tendency to advance. Irish new Wheat has still sold
with difficulty, though offered on lower terms : 7s 9d to Ss per 701 b.
may be considered the value of best samples. Most of the free
American Flour has gone off the market, and there is now none to
be had under 43s per barrel : 'several parcels have changed hands,
in bond, at 31s per barrel, Oats and Oatmeal are both held for a
little advance : as gd to 3s 11d per 451bs. are the rates now de-
manded for the former and 33s to 35s 6d per eNibs. for the latter.
No change in the value of either Barley, Beans or Peas. A few
Irish new Beans have appeared and sold at 44s to 46s per 4tOlbs.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, DEC. 9.
Thom has been a small number of Beasts at market to-day ;
prime Beef was in demand at fully last week's quotations, say od
for second and inferior qualities of Beef;. the trade was dull, and
in some instances a shade lower prices was taken, say 5d to Sad,
and at the close of the day a large number was turned out unsold.
The number of Sheep was smaller than last week; prime Wethers
scarce, and the demand was brisk at an advance from last week,
say 71d, second quality 7d, inferior and Ewes tid to tild; and at the
close of the day the Sheep were well cleared oft',
