LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 13
The Trade continue to buy sparingly, but, though the market
during the latter part of the week has been languid, prices generally
are fully maintained, particularly in the lower qualities of American ;
East India has been offered very freely, and in order to effect sales
a reduction of id per lb has been submitted to ; but Egyptian is
again rather dearer, There were offered by auction to-day 641
bags Sea Island and 77 Stained do., of which, 260 of the former
and 30 of the latter sold, at id to Id advance for the qualities of
Sea Island ranging below good, which, with the fine descriptions,
barely supported previous rates. 750 American have been taken
on speculation this week.

VERY REDUCED FARES

R. S. avails himself of this opportunity to contradict a
report industriously circulated, that there is no communica-
tion between Liverpool and Chester but by Railway ; and
assures the Public that his Coaches have continued, and do
still continue, to run daily, every two hours, between Liver-
pool and Chester, as usual, at Fares below those charged by
the Railway. As to the beauty of the road from Liverpool
via Eastham Ferry to Chester, for its scenery, it is not to be
equalled in the kingdom. Passengers by his Coaches are
not annoyed, on their journey to Wales, Shropshire, or else-
where, beyond Chester, by having first to take Packet to the
Monk's Ferry, then an Omnibus to the Birkenhead Railway
Station, thence by Railway through deep cuttings and high
embankments to the terminus at Chester Station, where
they again have to take Omnibus or other conveyance to the
City, ere they can proceed on their intended route. All
these great inconveniences and delays are avoided by tra-
velling with any of the undermentioned well-regulated
Coaches, which it is Mr. Smith's determination to maintain
on the road.

R. S. challenges all his opponents to deny that his Esta-
blishment is superior, both in Coaches and Horses, to any
other connected with Liverpool or Chester. R. S. has, ever
since the opening of the Railway between Liverpool, Bir-
mingham, and London, kept on the road his " BRILLIANT"
Coach—(see the list annexed) ; and further intimates, that,
at the solicitation of several gentlemen and inhabitants of
Birkenhead, Woodside, &c., he purposes to run one or more
Coaches between Birkenhead and Chester, to prevent the
inconvenience those persons now experience who dislike
Railway travelling, in being obliged to cross over to Liver-
pool, and proceed by way of Eastham to Chester.
The following first-rate Coaches continue to run to and
from Liverpool as under :
NEW COACH TO MOLD, CALLED THE "WONDER,"
Via Queen's Ferry, every Morning at Seven o'clock, and
arrives at Mold at a Quarter before Ten ; returns from Mold
at Three in the Afternoon, and arrives in Liverpool at Six.

at Eight o'clock instead of Six, for particulars sec below.

STATE OF TRADE.

LEEDS.—There has been a fair demand for heavy winter
goods for domestic use during. the past week, but in the
lighter descriptions, and 19 fabrics suitable for export the
transactions have been limited. Some of the leading firms,
instead of discharging a.number of their hands and running
the remainder for full time, have adopted the much more
considerate and salutary practice of retaining all their ser-
vants, but working only three or four days a week, according
to their need. By this means much distress among the ope-
rative classes will be prevented.
BRADFORD MARKET.—There was a fair attendance of
buyers at market on Thursday, but scarcely an average
amount of business was done. Prices, however, continued
very firm, the stocks of manufactured goods being low. The
yarn market partook of the dulness which pervaded the Piece
Hall. In the wool market there was of course very little
done, but prices were not quite so firm as in the other branches
of the trade.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, Nov. lo.—This was a fair ave-
rage November market day, a time of the year when there is
not much business done ; but there is little to complain of
generally. In some sorts of goods, prices have declined ; but
heavy woollens and winter goods of all sorts are firm.
Wools are not much in request ; prices, however, have not
altered. In the warehouses business is dull.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, Nov. 9.—We
have had a more limited demand for flannels to-day, and con-
siderably less business has been done, at rather declining
prices. In the wool market there has been but little change
for some weeks past, either in prices or demand.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, Nov. 16.
Our Butter market continues in a very unsatisfactory state as to
demand, but we do not quote prices any lower than on Friday.
Holders of pickled Butter permit the currency of that article still
to remain nominally at 925. There are no transactions worthy of
notice in Beef and Pork ; and if anything, we should say that
Bacon is again the turn cheaper.

WARD

The election for this ward, vacant by the melancholy d

cease of V

team Wallace Currie, Esq. is fixed, by a disurace-
ul trick of the whip-radical party, for Thursday, instead of
Friday next, as was almost universally anticipated. So fully
was it understood indeed by the conservatives that Friday
was to be the day, that many of Mr. Smith's voters have
been induced to leave town under that impression ; and it is
much to be feared that the dirty trickery, by which a day
earlier has been substituted, will have the effect of seriously

endangering the cause of the conservative candidate

Of the means by which this sudden change has been ef.
fected, we can of course only have our own surmises. We

are ready, however, to acquit the town-clerk of any antici-
pation in it ; and are confidently informed that it originates
with the clique themselves. The real day of pollinghas, we dare

and they have thus hoped to steal a march upon the conserva-.

There may be something in the fact that Friday is not a
meat-day with the Roman Catholic voters of Mr. Rathbone ;
and that, consequently, the same facilities would not be af-
forded on that, as on any other day, of bestowing an elee-
mosynary guzzle upon these enlightened and independent
brethren of the hod.

In the meantime, the most disgraceful intimidation and
corruption is being practised by the " pure" supporters of
Mr. Rathbone, and, in a few instances we are sorry to say,
not without effect. We have before us the name and resi-
dence of one voter, who has been induced to withdraw his
promise of support to Mr. Smith, by the intimation that his
reward would be a spirit license—a coin in which whig-radi-
calism has been too much in the habit lately of paying its
venal supporters. We may some day be induced to expose
the doings of the gentry who have trafficked so largely in
this commodity. These and similar bribes are lavished on
every hand; and it is evident that no weapons, however
filthy and disreputable, will be spared to effect the return of
the rejected of Pitt-street.

We are glad, however, to inform our readers that the con-
servative party in the ward are on the alert, and full; alive to
the importance of the contest. The canvass is being actively
carried on, and unless some fresh trickery be resorted to on
the day of election, some repetition of the juggle which
procured for Doctor Blackburn his late short triumph, and
enabled William Rathbone himself to have one last crow
upon his lost dunghill, we trust that the conservative spirit
of the ward is still a match for the wiles of whin radicalism.
We must, however, entreat our friends to poll early on
Thursday, and thus be prepared to laugh at their opponents.
Not a man must be from his post, for every man will be
wanted; and above all, we repeat,

These splendid Works were originally painted for the
GIUSTINEANI PALACE of ROME, and were, after two cen-
turies, acquired by LUCIEN BUONAPARTE, in whose posses-

Ex-Queen of Etruria ; and from her Son, his Royal High-

ARRIVAL OF THE ACADIA

The royal mail steam-ship Acadia, Captain Miller, arrived
at this port on Sunday. She left Boston on the Ist and
Halifax on the 3d instant, and was, including the stoppage
at the latter port, 13 days and 20 hours on the passage, the
latter half of which was extremely stormy. She has brought
53 passengers. Her mails occupied nearly a dozen large
bags.

The royal mail steam-ship Britannia, Captain Judkins,
which sailed from Liverpool on the 20th ult., arrived off
Halifax on the 31st, but, owing to fog, did not reach the
wharf till the Ist instant, after a passage of 12 days and 20
hours. She left, in the evening, for Boston, which she would,
probably, make on the morning of the 3d inst.
We subjoin a copy of the Acadia's homeward log and a list of
her passengers.

THE COTTON TRADI

There is very little doing in cotton at any of the leading
ports. In the Atlantic ports the purchasers are waiting for
the further accumulation of the stock before operating. In
the southern ports, the orders from abroad, particularly from
France, are limited at prices below the views of holders, who
pretend to place great reliance on the shortness of the grow-
ing crop. At Mobile the prices are one cent higher than at
other ports, and the speculators throughout the south seem to
be actuated by the same fallacious ideas that led to the dis-
astrous speculations of 1839. The mere fact that the crop of
1839 was less than that of 1838 was made the basis of a rise,
without considering that the crop of 1838 might have been
superabundant, as turned out to be the fact. The crop of
1840 was 2,173,000 bales, and it is generally allowed that the
growing crop will be 1,900,000 bales, or 100,000 bales larger
than the immense crop of 1838 ; and yet because it will be
300,000 bales less than last year, dealers are speculating for
a rise. Their hopes are based, in a great measure, upon the
large quantities taken for consumption in Liverpool this year.
The probability is, that spinners laid in their stocks when
prices were low, in anticipation of a return of activity. This
has not taken place. The exports of yarns and goods from
England have been unusually small, an indication of which
is the low state of exchange on the continent. If, therefore,
there is a continuance of peace, and the crop does not go
above the lowest estimates, there is but little probability of a
rise in prices. The following is a comparative table of the
two last crops, with an estimate on the most accurate data of
the growing crop.

LIVERPOOL 'CORN MARKET, MAY 30.

During the last seven days we have had moderate arrivals of Oats
from Ireland, but of other descriptions of British Grain, Flour, and
Oatmeal, the imports have been light. The receipts from abroad
comprise 10,208 qrs of Wheat, 700 qrs of Oats, 1780 qrs of Barley,
and iO,llOl barrels of Flour ; and there have been released from
bond 5778 qrs of Wheat, 3100 qrs of Barley, 55 qrs of Peas, and 691
barrels of Flour. The only change in duties, this week, is Is 6d
per qr less on Beans, reducing the impost on that article to as per
qr. Favourable weather and promising; accounts as to the growing
crops, have had the usual effect of rendering the millers and dealers
cautious buyers; a disposition which, on the other hand, has been
met by holders of free Foreign Wheat submitting to a reduction of
3d to 4(1 per bushel, at which a moderately fair extent of business
has been transacted, includinf, a few purchases for Ireland and for
country account. Irish Wheat is now in very small compass here,
and where it has been wanted, an advance of some pence per bushel
has had to he paid.—American Flour, in bond, has attracted the no-
tice of speculators, and several thousand barrels have been taken
during the week at 25s to 25s 6d per barrel : the prices free have, at
the same time, receded a little,• say, to 35s to 35s 6d. per barrel, at
which a tolerably fair quantity has gone in the hands of the trade.
—Oats have been much neglected, and must be quoted 2d per bu-
shel iheaper.—Oatineal, too, has met only a limited inquiry, at a
decline of fully lid per load.—Several parcels of light Foreign Bar-
ley, for grinding, have found buyers, with a view to hold over, at 3s
od to 4s per 60 lbs.—Beans, upon a moderate demand, are fully as
dear.—No change as regards Peas.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MAIIKET, JUNE 1.
We have had a very short supply of Beef, that of Mutton and
Lambs a little more plentiful than on this day week. The demand
for all sorts of Meat was exceedingly brisk, and for Beef much
higher prices obtained. We scarcely ever recollect seeing the
market cleared off so early in the day,—prime Beef ;id to Sd, mid-
dling 7d, inferior 6id, coarse sid to lid. Sheep, (sheared) 6id to 7d,
Lambs 9d to Sid Number of Beasts, 660; Sheep and Lambs, 6850.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JUNE 1.
We have an abundant import of Butter, which has affected prices
very considerably. Fine Carlow is offering to-day at 105 s and mid-
dling Waterford at 95s to 98s. The demand is not brisk, dealers
looking for a large reduction in price, and, indeed, they are justified
in the expectation by the present favourable weather. Pickled But-
ter is not over plentiful, and consequently commands rather a long
price. 108 s having been got for a small shipment for the Brazils.
In Beef and Pork there is nothing doing : this is usually a dull time
of the year. A fair inquiry exists for Bacon.

CELEBRATION OF THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE

TWENTY-NINTH OF MAY.

PROCESSION OF THE SHIP CARPENTERS.

The anniversary of the restoration of King Charles 11.
was, on Friday last, commemorated in this town in a man-
ner amply demonstrative of that loyalty and of those genu-
ine constitutional principles which have seated the present
dynasty on the throne of these realms, and from the main-
tenance of which can alone be anticipated the full establish-
ment of our national honour, prosperity, and independence.
The demonstration of feeling in behalf of the Protestant
cause was general throughout the town, but, in accordance
with ancient custom, the honour of a public procession was
borne by that useful and numerous class of workmen the
shipwrights and ropemakers, and the apprentices to those
respective trades so indispensable to the welfare of a port
second to none in the kingdom in maritime and commercial
enterprise and exertion.

The bustle of preparation commenced at an early hour in
the morning, and all became speedily on the qui vine. Flags
were hoisted on the towers of the churches, and as the day
advanced, the streets became gay by a similar display from
numerous public buildings; schools, inns, and private
houses. The newspaper and publishing offices, attached to
the conservative cause, were conspicuous in this respect, and
the shipping in the docks and river was not behind-hand,--
ensigns and pendants freely floating in the breeze. The
younger branches of the community enjoyed a holiday, and
numerous were the infantine and pleasing• representations of
King Charles borne along the streets by senior playmates
embowered by yet delicately green " boughs of oak." A
large portion of the community, indeed, considered the day
as a festival, and lent their aid to promote the general good
feeling. Young and old, rich and poor, both of the town
and neighbouring country, thronged the several great tho-
rough-fares in " living streams," or congregated at corners
and points whence they could obtain a view of the proces-
sional display. The weather was clear, sunny, and enliven-
ing, with a breeze from the N.W., that rendered walking
agreeably cool, though rather too brisk occasionally for the
easy display of the numerous flags carried in the procession.
The numerous members of the Shipwrights' Association,
and their copartners, the Ropers, assembled in Williamson-
square, at nine o'clock, and the whole ground and its outlets
became crowded by a dense number of spectators. The flags
and banners were very numerous, the bands played national
airs, and the whole presented a gay and interesting appear-
ance. Soon after ten they formed in prOcession, and pro-
ceeded to Christ Church, according to previous arrange-
ment, that church being one of the largest in the town.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-06-02

.BE SOLD, BY PRIVATE CONTRACT, THE
I. NEW FERRY ESTATE, with RIGHT of FERRY.
This valuable Property, situated in Lower Bebbington, Che-
shire, comprises about thirty statute acres of LA ND,affording
the most eligible sites for building Villas, &c. in the neighbour-
hood of Liverpool. The greatest part of it joins the Derby
• House and Rock Park Estates, and, when judiciously laid
out, will be found to contain every advantage possessed by
those two beautiful properties. The recent purchases of
Land in Cheshire by the Corporation of Liverpool also ne-
cessarily open prospects of great future advantage
.to the
buyer, and render this Estate a most desirable investment
for the. capitalist.
The Ferry is considerably enhanced in value by being only
one mile from the extensive improvements which are being
carried on by the Harrington and Herculaneum Dock Com-
panies, and the. latter having built a good Pier and Landing
Slip, the New. Ferry Boats are . constantly plying with Pas-
sengers, &c., between the two places.
This Ferry is also the nearest to Parkgate, King's Ferry,
and Wales, and 'must, as a natural consequence, have a pre-
ference with the residents of those quarters. in their inter-
course with Liverpool.

To Thomas Holloway, Esq.

Holloway's Universal Family Ointment will be found far
more efficacious in the following diseases than any other
remedy extant, viz.:--Ulcers, Venereal Ulcers, Wounds,
Bad Legs, Nervous Pains, Gout, Rheumatism, Contracted
and Stiff Joints, Pains, in the Chest and Bones, Difficult
Respiration, Swellings and Tumours, in cases of Piles its
effects are truly wonderful, &c. Its effects have been asto-
nishing in the most severe cases of Stony and Ulcerated
Cancers, Scrofula or King's Evil, in all Skin Diseases, as
Ringworm, Scald Heads, &c., and in Burns, Soft Corns,
Bunions, Chapped Hands, Chilblains, &c. Five Hundred
and Forty Medical Certificates, most of which are from the
first medical authorities, such as her Majesty's Serjeant
Surgeon, Sir B. C. Broglie, Bart., and such like eminent
names, must for ever set at rest all doubt as to the superior
efficacy of the remedy.
