STATE OF TRADE

MANCHESTER.—AIthough there was not a very extensive
demand for yarn yesterday (which, indeed, could hardly be
expected at the present season), the market exhibited consi-
derable buoyancy, and the business was generally at an ad-
vance of ith to id. upon the prices of the preceding week.
This advance, however, is not quite equal to the increase
which has taken place in the price of cotton. For goods of
most descriptions there was a tolerably fair demand, and
good 28-inch power-loom printing cloth commanded an ad-
vance of from 3d. to 6d. per piece, whilst 27-inch was from
lid. to 3d. dearer. In domestics and skirtings there was no
change, but both were tolerably easy to sell at the full rates
of last week. ' Altogether, there was a much better feeling in
the market than at any time during the preceding fortnight.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, DEC. 21ST.—
The market to-day has been extremely dull, and a very limited
quantity of business has been transacted. In prices there is
no change from those of last week. In the wool market
prices are firm, but there has been very little business doing.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, TUESDAY, DEC. 22.—As is
usual at the close of the year, this was a comparatively dull
market ; there being few buyers, and few sales effected. But
orders are in hand, which keep the workpeople pretty well
employed ; and business in the warehouses is such as to raise
expectations for the future. The demand for new styles in
fancy woollens is good, and prices remain firm.—Manchester
Guardian.

A bustle is an article used by ladies to take from their
form the character of the Venus of the Greeks, and impart
to it that of the Venus of the Hottentots!

BIRMINGHAM AND GLOUCESTER RAILWAY.—The
opening of the entire line of railway from the Camp Hill
Station, in this town, to Gloucester, took place on Thursday
morning last ; the trains have traversed the line without the
slightest accident, and with as few delays as could have been
expected, those stopping at the first-class stations having
performed the total distance in two hours and a half. The
whole routes from the rising port of Gloucester, the key of
South Wales. and from Cheltenham, are now open by un-
terrupted lines of railway to Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Lan-
cashire, and Yorkshire. We understand, that, very early in
the pew
year, the company will be prepared with arranege-
ments for the conveyance of goods, and already numerous
applications have been made by carriers to put traffic on the
line ; it is to be hoped, therefore, that the proprietors of
this spirited undertaking will speedily reap the reward of
their patience and peraeverance.drie: Gazette.

Mr. Leathc

presided

• The routine bpsiness having been disposed of,
Mr: G. HoOlkaid his attention had been called to a report
i❑ the Liverpool Courier of the 16th instant, of what took
place in the committee when Mr. Chapman broughtforward
his charges against Mr. Hartley. He mentioned the matter
merely to put it in a right point of view. The Courier said,
" The charges he (Mr. Chapman) had been requested to
make by the chairman of the Board of Works, were already
investigated, and if the letter had reference to those charges,
he had no objection that Mr. Hartley should endeavour to
exonerate himself as he best could." It was here supposed,
that he (Mr. Holt) was the originator of the charges against
Mr: Hartley, instead of Mr. Chapman. No doubt all that
Mr. Chapman meant to say was, that the chairaian of the
sub-committee of 4tworks had requested -him to furnish 'the
precise charges in , so that there might be no misun-
derstanding us to the i is to be inquired into.
The CHAIRMAN said it also appeared, by the reports in
some of the newspapers, that he had requested Mr. Chap-
man to reduce his charges against Mr. Hartley into writing-.

The fact was, he took rie part in the matter, except to request
Mr. Chapman to bring• his charges at the end of the day's
oceedings, instead of the beginning.,

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

RAILWAY TO YORK.-It is said, but how far true we
cannot say, that government contemplates making, or recom-
mending the making, of the railway survey by Mr. James
Walker, from Cambridge, near the Fens of Lincolnshire, to
York, end that plans have actually been lodged with the
clerks of the peace for that purpose. We believe the rail-
way committee or commission is favourable to this line, but
as to the government turning railway constructors and job-
bers, we doubt it.—Raifivay Magazine.

MIDLAND COUNTIES RAILWAY.—ACCIDEWT AT CROW
MlLLS.—A.temporary bridge has been erected at this place,
and the travelling on this part of the line, which was partially
suspended, is now resumed.

The Manchester and Leeds Railway Company are taking
the lead in printing and circulating amongst their servants
accounts of accidents on railways generally, with a view to
furnishing them with additional means of information and
motives to caution in the discharge of their responsible
duties.

THE STOCKPORT VIADUCT.—We understand that the
crowning stone of the magnificent viaduct across the valley
at Stockport, is to be set on Monday next, at half-past
twelve o'clock. This hour has been fixed to enable as many
of the working classes as can attend to witness the spectacle.
The stone is to be set by Thomas Ashton, Esq. of Hyde,
chairman of the directors; and after the ceremony, a de=
jainer a la fourchette is to be given to a large party, by
Messrs. Holmes and Tomkinson, the contractors for the
wurk.—Stockport Advertiser.

NORTH MIDLAND RAlLWAY.—Traffic returns for the
week ending 12th December—Passengers, parcels, carriages,
and horses, £1637 Is sd; merchandise £686 Its Bd, total
£2323 13s Id. Not including North Midland proportion of
Manchester and Leeds traffic.

MANCHESTER AND LEEDS RAlLWAY.—Although the
directors of this railway will travel along the part yet un-
opened on the 21st instant, the railway will not be opened to
the public in less than a week or ten days after, probably the
first Monday in the new year.

GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY.-It has been
announced that the Great North of England Railway from
Darlington to York will be ready for the conveyance of coals
on Monday, the 4th of January next, and that coals will be
ready for sale at the several depots on the line, viz., at York,
Alne, Easingwold, Thirsk, Northallerton, Cowton, and Croft.
The arrangements fur opening the line for the conveyance of
passengers and for general traffic are in a very advanced state,
and it is expected that they will be matured in the course of
a very few weeks.—Newcastle Journal.

COURT CIRCULAR.-FRIDAY

The Queen, accompanied by Prince Albert, took an airing
in a carriage yesterday, for the first time since her Majesty's
confinement. Her Majesty and his Royal Highness left
Buckingham Palace shortly before two o'clock, and returned
to the Palace in the course of half an hour.

The Princess Sophia Matilda visited her Majesty yesterday
afternoon.

His Royal Highness Prince Albert inspected yesterday one
of the magnificent sideboard dishes lately prepared for the
Goldsmiths' Company. The subject described is Richard
11. granting the charter of incorporation to the company.
The lower part is occupied with festoons of fruit, in high re-
lief, exquisitely finished. His Royal Highness was pleased
to express to Mr. Bridge his admiration of the performance,
and afterwards had the piece of plate removed to an adjoin-
ing apartment for her Majesty's inspection.

❑ay, to a considerable extent,

be gratified—and where ur
dant and procurable at little cost, positive coercion

and fertile land is abun-

s, in the

nature of things impossible; and that the virtual coercion
which, in all countries, is imposed by the necessities of the
labouring man, is likely to be less here than any part of the
United Kingdom. To those advantages may be added, that
all disqualifications and distinctions of colour have "ceased—
that men of all colours have equal rights in the law, and an

equal footing in society ; and that every man's position is
settled by the same circumstances which regulate that point
in other free countries where no difference of colour exists—
that civil and religious liberty is universally enjoyed in as

great a degree as in the mother country, and that we have a

press as free as any in the world. Such is the present con-

dition of this colony, in those respects, and it may be asserted
without fear of denial, that the former slaves of Jamaica are
now as secure in all social rights as free born Britons. Let
it be our study, gentlemen, to confirm, and if possible im-
prove, this happy state."

The Governor next compliments the House of
Assembly, by saying that he was sure " they would

not advocate the cc

uance of any laws in tl

it pre-

sent st

:It the provisions could be arnelio-

rated." He did not see any reason why their laws
should yield in civility or liberality to those of any other
land. The discontinuance of the use of the treadmill

and corporal punishment for adult criminals, was a
proof of the disposition that prevailed to avoid seve-
rity. "If there be laws," he added, "of any country
milder than those of this

island, I will venture to say

for you that you will gladly adopt the mildest laws
that have ever been devised." Our readers should

bear in mind that this language is applied by a W
appointed Governor to the so-called

acquainted with the state of Jamaica must know that
there is no more fear of a return of slavery in the

island, than there is of its establishment in England—

that the emancipated population of Jamaica are as free,
as independent in their conduct, as well conditioned, as
much in the enjoyment of abundance, and as strongly
sensible of the blessings of liberty, as any that he

knew of in any country. We should say, indeed, that
the free labourers of Jamica were far more comforta-

ble, in every possible respect, than nine tenths of the
labouring and operative classes in Great Britain.
The Governor strongly repudiates the idea that

coercion is resorted to in order to cause the Negroes to

labour. On this subject he offers the following sen-

The Trade continue to buy rather freely, and with confirmed ac-
counts from the United states of the reduced estimate of the present
crop, holders are very firm; American, generally„ is *d dearer.
and the middling and fair qualities of Surat are also rather higher ;
Egyptian, on the other hand, barely supports previous rates, and
in Brazil there is no material change to notice. The public sale
of Sea Island was fairly attended, and out of 600 offered, about 430
were sold, at previous prices. Speculators have taken 4500

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, DECEMBER 19.'

With the exception of Irish Oats, of whiCh several cargoes have
got up within the last two or three days, increasing the week's
supply to upwards of 7700 loads, the imports of each article of the
trade are to a very moderate amount. On Tuesday last, upon a
moderate demand, a further advance of 2d to 3d per bushel was
established for free Foreign Wheat. Irish new was also rather
dearer; and American Flour was fully 6d per barrel over the quo-
tations of this day se'nnight, best brands of United Stated selling
at 565. Canadian at 34s to 35s per barrel. Holders have continued
very firm, but the subsequent transactigns have been on a limited
scale. Scarcely a sample of English new Wheat at market. In
the early part of the week, absolute scarcity rather enhanced the
value of new Oats; but the recent accession of supply has again
rendered them somewhat easier to purchase ; 3s Id per 451bs. may
be considered an extreme quotation for the best mealing qualities,
26s 6d a top quotation of Irish new Meal. No change as regards
Barley, Beans or Peas. A few hundred barrels of Hour, in bond,
have been taken for export at 26s per barrel.
