LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 30.

There has been an improved demand this week, particularly for
American, of which the Trade have bought freely, at extreme
prices. Sea Island and the good qualities of Egyptian are rather
dearer; Surat, in consequence of the late large import. are id per
lb lower, and a similar decline has been submitted to in Brazil.
Speculators have taken 3000 American, and Exporters 200 American ;
and there have been forwarded into the country unsold during the
month 2800 American and 150 Bahia.

STATE OF TRADE.

LANCASHIRE.—The trade in the cotton factories at Burn-
ley is in a moderate healthy state ; there are sixteen cotton
mills in this neighbourhood, in fifteen of which the hands are
working full time. The trade in the cotton mills at Padihain
and Colne is much in the same state as the above; but hand-
loom weavers are certainly better employed than they are in
the neighbourhood of Burnley. Calico block printing has
not been so dull for a long time past. The silk trade at
Manchester, Middleton, Failsworth, Leigh, and other towns
ten miles round Manchester, is extremely brisk ; the de-
mand is chiefly for fine printed Satins and other printed fan-
cy goods. The printing upon silk wares has increased more
than double during the last month.—Preston Chronicle.

TRIAL OF HENTY.

The court-martial at Sheerness was brought to a termina-
tion on Saturday. Evidence to character of a very superior
kind was given in favour of Henty, whose defence in writing
was then submitted to the court, and read by the Judge
Advocate. The verdict was to the following effect :

" The court is of opinion ihailliefirst charge—namely,
that of a breach of duty, is not proved. That the second
charge, that of disobedience of orders, is not proved ; and
that the third charge—namely, that of having on the said
2d day of October made a false report to big superior officer,
Capt. Sir J. Hill, of the extent of a fire which in the after-
noon of that day had taken place on board the said ship
Camperdown, and of the circumstances, is fully proved
against the prisoner. But front the circumstances of his
extraordinary good character for skill, zeal, carefulness, hu-
manity, and general good conduct as la carpenter of her
Majesty's navy, the court doth adjudge the said John Henty
to be only severely reprimanded and admonished ; and the
said John Henty is hereby severely reprimanded and admo-
nished accordingly." The verdibt seemed to (cause consi-
derable satisfaction amongst the spectators ; and the pri-
soner, on leaving the state-room, was warmly congratulated
by all his brother officers, and many respectable inhabitants
of the town.

WEST DERBY WARD,

The retiring member for this ward was Mr. G. H. Law-
rence, (conservative) who stood again on the same interest.
It was with some difficulty that the radicals found a candi-
date in the person of Mr. Lawrence Heyworth jun., the son
of the president of the teetotallers. It was evident from the
first hour in the morning that this unfledged aspirant for
municipal honours had not the slightest chance of success.
Mr. Lawrence maintained his position from the first, and
continued to augment his majority from hour to hour until
the close. There was very little excitement in the neighbour-
hood of the polling booth, the opposition to Mr. Lawrence
being looked upon as a complete farce. The numbers at the
close of the poll were, for Mr. G. H. Lawrence 156, and for
Mr. L. Hey worth 96—giving the former a majority of 60.
The radicals have no chance whatever in this ward.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-11-03

Mr. JAMES OWEN, the chairman of Mr. Kilshaw's com-
mittee, also came forward to thank the electors for the noble
and manly way in which they had asserted the independence
of the ward. (Cheers.)
Mr. KILSHAW then briefly returned thanks in a neat and
aPpropriate speech, in the course of which he expressed a
hope that his committee were correct in their ctilculations.
He trusted that they would come forward next year, and se-
cure a much larger majority for the conservative candidate.
(Cheers.)
The following explanatory observations, in reference to the
majority which is claimed by Mr. Kilshaw's committee, may
be here necessary :
The conservatives claim a majority of giving their oppo-
nents 387 votes, they having 391. The manner in which this
is accounted for is thus explained by the clerks on the conser-
vative side :—Two clerks were appointed for each side, one
to take the names from A to L, the other those from L to Z.
One of the clerks on the radical side, who should have noted
the names from A to L exclusively, it is known went on for
some time taking the names of the whole alphabet ; so that
all beyond L were duplicated. When he discovered his
error, he proceeded to erase the names beginning with letters
beyond L in the alphabet ; but it is believed that he omitted
Some of them, so as to make up the apparent difference. So
confident were Mr. Kilshaw's clerks of this fact last night
that they fully anticipate the official return of this day will
place that gentleman in the majority stated—namely, four.
They have summed up their books repeatedly, and can arrive
at no other conclusion.

ST. ANNE'S WARD.

The retiring member for St. Anne's Ward was Mr. Ed-
ward Segar, who declined coming forward again. The new
candidates were, on the Conservative interest, Mr. John
navies, an old and highly respectable inhabitant of the ward,
and, on the radical interest, Mr. W. Slater. This ward was
keenly contested throughout the day, and the two candidates
were alternately at the head of the poll. There was a con-
siderable crowd around the polling booth, in Christian -street,
In the afternoon particularly, the great majority of whom
seemed to be deeply interested in the return of Mr. Davies.
The radicals made the most strenuous exertions during the
last hour, and succeeded in placing Mr. Slater at the head of
the poll. The numbers at the close were :
Mr. Slater

Mr. Davies

Majority for Mr. Slater, only .. 4
We regret to hear that this ward was chiefly lost through
the lukewarmness and want of alacrity displayed by several
of the Conservative voters. We hope they will not be so
sluggish and indifferent in future.

CANADA.

The act lately passed by the Imperial Parliament for the
union of the Canadas, seems to meet with greater opposition
in certain quarters than was at first anticipated. The oppo-
nents of the union state that the measure will lead to a sepa-
ration between Canada and the mother country. They see
that Canada has now the power to separate if she pleases ;
but why take for granted that she will use that power for that
purpose ? They do so because they assume that the United
Provinces will be governed as each of the two has been, upon
the mixed system of representation without executive re-
sponsibility, and that the verging-on-revolution state thus
produced will render the colony discontented.
A large meeting was to be held at Quebec, on the 13th in-
stant, of those opposed to the union. It is thought, however,
that the opposition will graduully diminish, and that the mea-
sure will eventually become popular. The evils apprehended
strike us as entirely imaginary, and when the subject is un-
derstood, the measure must meet with general acceptance.
horse racing has become quite the rage in the Canadas
during the two past years, and we hope it will be a source of
improving the breed of horses, besides affording sport to the
public. The Niagara meeting was to take place on the 11th
and 15th instant.

SOUTH TOXTETH WARD

The candidates for this ward were Mr. John Sheppard,
gentleman, conservative ; and Mr. John Platt, iron-mer-
chant, radical. Very considerable interest was excited in
this ward, which was nobly contested by the conservative
candidate, who, though he has lost the day by a small num-
ber votes, will, we trust, be triumphant on the next occa-
sion. Mr. Platt got ahead considerably at an early hour,
end though Mr. Sheppard gained rapidly upon him, particu-
larly towards the close, he (Mr. S.) could not entirely make
up his leeway. The following were the closing numbers:—
Platt
Sheppard

Majority for Platt 6
It should be remarked that at a quarter-past three Mr.
Platt was but three ahead of Mr.. Sheppard ;at half-past, 6 ;
and at a quarter to four, (as well as at the close), only 6.
Towards the close of the poll, several slight pugilistic en-
counters took place, but the police restored order. A good
deal. of amusement was created by an old man, who had sa-
crificed largely to the rosy god, wishing to give his vote to
:N!r.. Sheppard, and whose vote was refused on the score of
Ms it He repeatedly found his way to Mr. Shep
Pard's committee-room, accompanied by his wife ; but his
vote not being received when he tendered it, he refused to
vote at all. As the polling-place is in the outskirts of the
town and the ward extensive, cars and coaches were employed
Ol considerable numbers by both parties in bringing up the
voters who had lagged behind. The contest was so close to-
wards the conclusion, that the appearance of these vehicles
was loudly cheered by the parties at whose committee-rooms
they drew up. It will be observed that the voters had be-
come nearly exhausted before the close.

THE MUNICIPAL ELECTION. -

The TOWN-CLERK, after stating the interviews which he
had had with the assessors, and with several legal gentlemen
of the town, touching the rules to be observed and the legal
course to be pursued at the municipal election, read over the
opinions of himself and counsel which have already been
published. The opinion which has been made public was
obtained in reply to a case submitted by one of the..assessors,
who differed from the Town-clerk. The opinion obtained
confirmed the Town-clerk's views. The Town-clerk, deem-
ing that it was proper to have the law clearly defined before-
hand, so that they might not have anything of that nature
on hand on the day of election, obtained another opinion
from the Attorney-General, Sir Frederick Pollock, and Mr.
Wightman. This is still further confirmatory of the Town-
clerk's view of the law. The reply subjoined arises from the
three following points :—The removal of a burgess after the
31st August ; two or more qualifications in several wards ;
and receiving voting papers when four o'clock, the time of
closing, is at hand. and taking the same into consideration,
and admitting or rejecting them after the booth is closed.
The following is a copy of the opinion :

ST. ANNE'S WARD

The retiring member for St. Anne's Ward was Mr. Ed-
ward Seger, who declined coming forward again. The new
candidates were, on the Conservative interest, Mr. John
Davies, an old and highly respectable inhabitant of the ward,
and, on the radical interest, Mr. W. Slater. This ward was
keenly contested throughout the day, and the two candidates
were alternately at the head of the poll. There was a con-
siderable crowd around the polling booth, in Christian-street,
in the afternoon particularly, the great majority of whom
seemed to be deeply interested in the return of Mr. Davies.
The radicals made the most strenuous exertions during the
last hour, and succeeded in placing Mr. Slater at the head of
the poll. The numbers at the close were :
Mr. Slater
Mr. Davies ..

Majority for Mr. Slater, only .. 4
the regret to hear that this ward was chiefly lost through
lukeviarmness and want of alacrity displayed by several
o Conservative voters. We hope they will not be so
41114 and indifferent in future.

WEST DERBY WARD.
The
ref tiring member for this ward was Mr. G. H. Law-
rence,lt w- xonservative) who stood again on the same interest.
7 with some difficulty that the radicals found a candi-
date in the person of Mr. Lawrence Heyworth, jun., the son
of the president of the teetotallers: It was evident from the
first hour in the morning that this unfledged aspirant for
municipal honours had not the slightest chance of success.
Mr. Lawrence maintained his position from the first, and
continued to augment his majority from hour to hour until
the close. There was very little excitement in the neighbour-
hood of the polling booth, the opposition to Mr. Lawrence
being looked upon as a complete farce. The numbers at the
close of the poll were, for Mr. G. H. Lawrence 156, and for
Mr. L. Hepworth 96—giving the former a majority of 60.
The radicals have no chance whatever in this ward.
