tenacious sympathy of the membrane of he nose with the

frequently, must urevent any contagion entering the system,

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, MARCR 19.
The business transacted in Butter, since this day se'nnight, has
been only to a trivial extent ;—the finest Beirut may now be had
at 105 s, and speculators evince considerable anxiety to diminish
their stocks.—Pickled Butter may be quoted at ws to 98s for
seconds, with a limited trade. Beef and Pork continue in good
demand; heavy prime Mess Beef being worth 115 s to 117 s 6d per
tierce, and prime Diless Pork 75s to 82s per barrel. Good Bacon
sells readily at 50s to 51s.

STEALING A WATCH.

Evan Jenkins, a seaman, belonging to the brig William
the Fourth, lying in the King's Dock, was committed to take
his trial on a charge of having taken from the vessel and sold
to a pawnbroker, for the sum of twenty shillings, a watch
belonging to the mate. The prisoner, when asked by the
mate, John Douglas, whether he knew anything of the mis-
sing watch, acknowledged that he had sold it, and took the
mate to the pawnbroker's.

Macao has of late years declined from its former wealth
and prosperity from various causes, including the competi-
tion of other European nations in the China trade. An
island will be observed in the snap, near the centre of the
river, about 30 miles above Macao, called Lintin. Here
ships of war anchor, the Chinese not permitting them to
proceed nearer to Canton. The Bocca Tigris, or " Mouth
of the Tiger," is the entrance of the river, above the estuary.
Whampoa, where the merchant ships anchor, is 15 miles
north of Linda, and ten miles from Canton, with which
place the intercourse is carried on by lighters and other boats.
The mouth of the estuary of. the Canto❑ River is, it will
be observed, entirely studded with islands, most of which
are small, with the exception of Lantao and Hong-Kong.
The British outer anchorage was recently at the island of
Hong-Chang, but, 1)y the last accounts, they had removed
to Tung-hoo, higher up the river.

THE OPIUM TRADE-THE POPPY, OR OPIUM
PLANT-PROBABLE CAUSE OF THE STOP-
PAGE OF THE TRADE, AND PROGRESS OF
THE DISPUTE BETWEEN THE ENGLISH
AND THE CHINESE.

The opium trade is one of the most extraordinary and in-
teresting in the annals of commerce, whether we take into
consideration the rise and increase of late years in the con-
sumption of that poisonous drug in China—the means taken
by the Chinese to put a stop to the traffic—the destructio'n
of a quantity of it by them, of the value of £3,000,000 ster-
ling—the subsequent disputes that have arisen—or the pro-
bable result, which it is scarcely possible to divine with any
degree of accuracy. • Preliminary to some account of the
circumstances that have recently transpired, it may gratify
curiosity to supply a short description of the plant from
which the drug is extracted, and the effects of the poison on
the human system, when taken to excess for the purpose of
administering to a depraved and sensual appetite.

LIVERPOOL COTTONII!ARKET, MARcu 18.

The sales on Thursday were 2000 bags; Friday, 4000 ; Saturday,
2500 ; Monday, 3500 ; Tuesday, 1500 ; and to-day, 3000. The
business done since last week has been very limited. The market
continues dull, and the lower qualities of American are a shade
lower in price; Egyptian are rather higher; other descriptions re-
main without change. The import of the week is large, amounting
to 66,305 bags. . ,

LIVERPOOL CORN MARI(ET, MARCH 17.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.)

After nearly four weeks of easterly winds, a change has occurred
since Tuesday last, which, during the past week, has admitted an
immense number of vessels into this port from all quarters of the
world (nearly 400.) Of Grain, Flour, and "Oatmeal, from Ireland,
coastways, and from the continents of Europe and America, the
arrivals have been very considerable. Last quoted prices have ge-
nerally been steadily demanded, but sales have been very languid,
and only to a very small extent, and a trivial decline has been sub.
miffed to on almost every article in the Corn trade, here, on Friday,
and in our country markets, except perhaps on the finest qualities
of old British and free Foreign Wheat, which are very scarce.
The only alteration in the duties on Grain from Foreign ports
since Friday, is au increase of Is tid per quarter on Peas ; it is very
likely a decline in the duty on Wheat of Is per quarter, and on
Flour of lid per barrel, will occur next Friday ; a considerabie por-
tion of the Flour recently arrived from America, has changed hands
on the passage, at 30s to 31s per barrel: and also some part of the
Wheat from foreign ports at about 7s yd to Ss 3d per 701 b in bond,
though there has been a dull sale for such lying here, in bond, on
about the same terms, or free at our quotations. The chief part of
the Wheat and Flour, Oats, Beaus, and Peas, is going into bond for
the present.
