STATE OF TRADE

Already has the firm establishment of a Conservative mi-
nistry operated favourably on the interests of trade. The
last weekly reports from the manufacturing districts prove
that, notwithstanding the usually dull season of the year, a
manifest improvement has taken place.

At BradfOrd " the animated deinanc: still continues." ' At
Huddersfield " there was a fair amount of business trans-
acted." At Halifax there was very little variation from our
last piece market ;" but " spinners seem more fully em-
ployed." At Leeds " a brisk business was done in the
warehouses," and " manufacturers anticipate a brisk winter
demand." At Leicester " the French have been consider-
able buyers lately in the skin-comb wool." At Manchester
the markets are still better ; a fair business has been done in
both hand and power loom cloth, and the very full prices
paid on Tuesday have been obtained. Yarns are in good de-
mand, and in all probability will remain so until the end of
the shipping season. At Rochdale " flannels are still in brisk
demand."

We suspect that these representations of men of business
are more likely to exhibit the real condition of the trading
community than all the vain inanities of a Cobden and a
Russell. They prove to demonstration that the manufac-
turers have only to blame the bungling mismanagement of
the late Radical government, which paralyzed trade both at
home and abroad. Only let the cottonocracy work fairly,
and we venture to say, that
with Conservatism in the ascend-
ant, they will find their business improved and their opera-
tives more contented. Let them leave the agitation of the
corn laws, and attend to the working of their looms, and Sir
Robert Peel and his co-adjutors will look after the affairs of
the nation.

SAMBO SOMBER alias " JIM CROW.—On Saturday last,
a nigger, calling himself Sambo §omber, and representing
himselt as closely allied to Dyce Somber, Esq., m.p., the
" liberal" member for Sudbury, was brought up before the
magistrates at Blackburn, on a charge of begging, "jumping
Jim Crow," and playing off divers other Indian antics in the
streets on the previous evening. The bench inquired where
he had come from, when Sambo said he had come from the
Cannibal Islands, along with his friend and relative, " Massa
Dyce Somber, de liberal member for Sudbury. " And,"
continued Sambo, " I hab de hop !o be returned for de big
house de next time, as lam de liberal' also, and want no
queen, no church, but plenty of de cheap sugar, and de cheap
bread, and all de property dat belongs to oder de peoples,
cause I hab got none of my own." The bench inquired if
he had got no other qualification, when the nigger replied
" dat he could speak the Inglish as well as a Massa Somber,
de member for Sudbury." The bench immediately "re_
turned" Sambo to the treadmill for 21 days as a rogue and a
vagabond—a conclusion which Massa Sambo did not think
was in accordance with his "liberal" way of thinking._

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.—On Tuesday last two little boys,
named David Thomas and John Flower, aged about eleven
years, left their homes, in the Glebeland, for the purpose of
gathering blackberries, and incautiously got upon some
trains laden with iron, which were going down the tram-
road, drawn by horses, towards the Basin. When near
Troedyrhiew, John Flowers cried out. " 0 ! Davy, there's
a nest of them," and immediately jumped off, and ran to
seize the prize. The other poor boy, it is presumed, in his
hurry to jump off, fell under the wheel, when the whole of
the trains passed over his body. The boy Flowers, in his
anxiety to procure the blackberries, did not wait to see
deceased get off the train, arid the first intimation he had of
the accident was, hearing him cry out, " Oh, Flower,
Flower !" Upon turning round, he saw deceased under the
train. He immediately raised a cry, when the hallier and
some other person came to the spot. Upon taking up de-
ceased, they found that his head had been literally severed
from his body, and he was otherwise dreadfully mutilated.—
Merthyr Guardian.
THE ASSASSIN PAPPARD.—The Droit states that a
minute search made at the lodging of the assassin Pappard
produced no result; but that the pdrtrait of the Duke of
Orleans was found hanging up opposite to that of Napoleon.
The subjoined.on the same subject is from the Gazette des
Tribunaux :—" Pappard, who is only 27 years of age, has
already undergone more than four years' imprisonment for
various offences ; and, therefore, it is highly improbable that
he has served the usual period either in the 17th or any other
regiment. In 1834, Pappard, who is called the Albinos,'
from the whiteness of his hair, eye-lashes, 'and brow's,
received his first sentence of confinement for a robbery at
Sarlat, in the Dordogne, and again for a similar offence,
being detained in all five years in prison. He did not come
to Paris till 1839, and was employed by several masters, by
all of whom he was remarked for his extreme irascibility and
brutality

During a quarrel in a public-house, at Ber-cy he

wounded a man with a knife, and suffered in consequence
another imprisonment. The woman with whom he lived,
and who has a child by him, three months old, had suffered
so much from his violence, that, when she heard of his arrest
and its cause, she said, lam sorry for the Duke d'Aumale
if he is wounded, but I shall at last get rid of this wretch.'
The preliminary examinations are going on. Yesterday,
Baron Pasquier and the Duke De Gazes went to the Concier-
genie, and remained more than an hour.

The feeling of the democratic party in the United States
at the recent conduct of President Tyler is well illustrated
by the resolutions which were passed at a large meeting of
8,000 persons, described in the last file of New York papers.
With respect to the veto of the Bank Bill, the meeting ex-
press their gratification that President Tyler has followed the
illustrious example of the " great chieftain" (Andrew Jack-
son,) whom the democrats have always supported, in placing
his veto upon a measure palpably violating the constitution,
at the same time decidedly condemning his sanction of the
repeal of the Sub Treasury Bill. They, however, hope that
in spite of Mr. Tyler's declaration, that the result of the last
election was condemnatory of the Sub Treasury, that the
views expressed in the veto message, and his connexion with
the " Virginian school of democracy," will induce him to
propose some measure for the management of the public
money, resulting in the separation of the affairs of state from
those of the business of banking. These declarations with
tolerable distinctness mark the position of the president in
relation to the two great parties of the state, the repeal of
the Sub-Treasury being counterbalanced by the veto of the
Bank Bill. What must be the nature of the fiscal agent to
meet his approval is as yet unknown, but it is clear that while
his first message indicated his belief that the Sub-Treasury
was repudiated by the American people, he will not consent
to a national bank iir the common acceptation of the word,
though perhaps it may exercise the functions of controlling
the currency, besides that of keeping the public money. A
great number of papers from various parts of the Union
combine in giving the President the highest praise for his
veto. The Charleston Mercury hails it as the delivery of
the people from the dominion of a conspiracy of avarice and
profligacy, and thanks Mr. Tyler for the firmness with which
he has met the undaunted and unprecedented storm of party
menace. The Trenton Emporium describes " John Tyler"
as standing fast, firm in his integrity, faithful ,as truth her-
self. •` The monstrous bill of abominations," they say, "to
establish a new United States Bank, while the corruption of
the old is still infecting the land, is no more. It received its
death-blow at the hand of the President." The New York
New Era observes, that a President was never placed in a
situation of greater difficulty and embarrassment, and that
Mr. Tyler has borne himself most nobly. The Boston
Morning Post considers the veto message as an exhibition
of uncompromising principle, conscientious devotion to the
constitution, and stern patriotism.

For Brimstone there continues to be a fair demand ; the sales of
the week are reported at 260 tong. Nothing worthy of notice has
been done in Sumac. Of Argots only small sales made ; for a
parcel of 60 boxes white Bologna, to arrive, 44s per cwt. has been
accepted Cream of Tartar remain neglected. A few casks of
grey Tattar brought Sys 6d per cwt. at auction. The sales in
Berries are about 25 sacks Persian. at Previous rates. There has
been a fair business done in all descriptions of Madders and Roots ;
but at no alteration in previous rates. Olive Oil has remained in
limited demand, with prices fully supported; holders of Galipoli
are even demanding a further advance on the present quotations.
Fish Oils continue to improve•; 30 to 40 tuns Cod have been sold
at .e 26 lOs to .;e27, and several small parcels of Seal at 4e34 per
tun. Seed Oils are steady, and Linseed Oil may be quoted a trfle
dearer this week. Oil of Turpentine has been sold rather below
495, but the Distillers generally are firm at 50s, which is paid for
small quantities. Palm Oil.—Notwithstanding the moderate price
of this article (as compared with Tallow) brings an additional de-
mand from consumers, yet the price has again rather given way ;
about 150 tons have been sold this week, chiefly- at £32 lOs to .t'33,
but part a shade lower, and 200 tons have also been sold to arrive.
Hemp and Flax rctnain very dull of sale, and prices have a down
ward tendency. The demand for Tallow has aeen very limited ;
new yellow Candle is selling at 49s 6d, and some of last year's
import, but very fine, at 495. About 100 pipes South American of
fine qualities have been sold during the week a little under former
rates.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPT. 17

The demand for Cotton continues very fafr, yet there ap-
pears to be little doing. The quantity sold to-day is about
4000 bales, at yesterday's prices. The Sales of the week are
30110 bales, of which exporters have taken 2450, and
speculators 4750 bales. As regards prices we close on a par
with those of last Friday, the market having quite lost.what
it gained by the increased, demand of Monday andrfuesday
last.

COTTON MARKET, SEPTIOIBER 13.
Our market, as usual, has had a quiet and tame aspect to-day,
although the demand has been to a moderate extent, say 3 to 3501)
bales, of which about 700 bales are in good American Cotton for
export. We close steadily but without animatiou.

COTTON MARKET, SEPTEMBER 20

The demand for Cotton to-day has been somewhat above par,
and a little speculative inquiry has given a tone of steadiness iu
prices, so that it is not easier to buy than it was last week. We
have also had a fair attendance of the trade, and fully 4500 bales
have been sold, 700 to speculators, 400 fOr export, remainder to the
trade, at last week's prices for American. Long stapled Cottons
are heavy of sale, and Surat rather easier.

COTTON MARKET

,-WEEKLY REPORT

On Saturday, Monday and Tuesday a general and good demand
was experienced for American and Surat, which met ready sale al
the frill prices of Friday, and in partial instances sales were made
on Monday a shade dearer in American confined to qualities below
6d per lb. During the two last days there has been a less general
demand, the market has become tame and quiet again, and sales
cie
difficult to make ite equal to a portion of Monday and Tuesday's
business. Egy 'an, Brazil, Laguira and Peruvian continue to be
much neglecte r , and as respects prices almost nominal. Exporters
have taken 20 H American, 150 Surat and 300 St. Domingo's, and
speculators 4500 American and 250 Surat. About 4000 bales sold
to-day at stel,dy prices.
