ItH. SOMERVILLE and Co. having determined to

for new Spring Goods, respectfully invite their Friends and
the public to inspect their valuable assortment of French,
Scotch, and Brussels Embroideries, Lace, Hosiery, B(c.,
which they now offer at a very considerable Reduction in
Prices, for Cash, and which present an opportunity of pur-
chasing, on the most favourable terms, to-thoZO in
particular who have patronised their Establishment for many
years, and who know, from experience, that their Goods are
of first-rate qualities. .

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, DEC. 21.

We think the trade is recovering, though slowly, from the effects
of a heavy hit received by the stoppage of an extensive house in
the North of Ireland. Choice Butter fully supported our late quo-
tations, 106 s to 108 s. Middllng Butters are not much inquired for,
but are not cheaper. Pickled Butter has acid with more freedom.
The Brazilian packet of this day takes a few hundred firkins at
97s to pis. Heavy Beef stands its ground. Light stuff is a drug,
notwithstanding au effort to bolster, in an obscure print of this
day. Pork tolerably steady at 7os to 72s 6d for prime.

dling and inferior Gd to 6}d : the demand was brisk and every
thing cleared off at an early hour. Number of Beasts, 1044 ;

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DECEMBER 18.

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 id 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
American.

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 tully fid per barrel over the quo.
tations of this day se'nnight, best brands of United States selling
at 565. Canadian at 345 to 35s per barrel. Holders have continued
very firm, but the subsequent transactions have been on a limited
scale. Scarcely a sample of English new Wheat at market. In
the early part of the week, absolate scarcity rather enhanced the
value of new Oats; but the recent accession of supply has again
rendered them somewhat easier to purchase ; 3s 1 d per 451bs. may
be considered an extreme quotation for the best mealing qualities,
263 6d a top quotation of Irish new Meal. No change as regards
Barley, Beans or Peas. A few hundred barrels of Flour, in bond,
have been taken for export at 26s per barrel.

APROPOS OF ELECTIONS.—Said a clergyman to a bride,
" What do you think of the connubial state 1" " I think it
will go for Harrison," was the reply.
DISSENTERS AND THE PRAYER Boos.—We believe there
are scores of dissenters who gratify themselves by indulging
in this kind of rant against the prayer-book and the written
sermons of the clergy, merely because they are profoundly
ignorant of the true character of both. It happened not long
ago, in Wales (haud ficta loquimur), that a youngster was
appointed to the pastoral charge of a dissenting congregation.
Dissent was low, and the church popular. Something must
be done to revive the cause ; accordingly a lecture against
the Prayer-book was suggested to the youthful minister as
an admirable method of exhibiting his own powers and rais-
ing the dissenting " interest" at —. To this he had but
one objection, which was; that he knew nothing about the
Prayer-book, except, in general, that it was Popish, and
formal, and so forth. However, he commenced his studies
upon the dangerous volume, and dangerous it proved, for
he found, to his amazement, a body of devotion, scriptural,
spiritual, edifying. In a word, he renounced dissent, and is
now a warmly-devoted son and minister of the established
church.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

MANCHESTER.—FRIDAY EVENING.
If business on the Derby was exceedingly dull last evening
at Tattersall's, it was more so here this forenoon. For an
hour there was nothing but " offers"—say 12 to 1 on the
fiele ; 16 to 1 against anything, bar Rosalie ; and 20 to 1 bar
two. 25 was offered in sums against Pakemon (although
backed last night in one bet—say 5,000 to 175) ; 25 to I was
offered against Prince Carodoc : and 30 to 1 against Brother
to Tom. The Nob was in every body's mouth; but they
were all for taking 500 to 10 ; it would have been laid to 15.
Van Amburgh was offered at 40 to 1 ; and the Knlght of the
Thistle at 35 to 1 ; but the last-named colt has, during the
evening, been supported at 40 to 1, in pounds, repeated. 20
to 1 is offered against Eringo, takers of five points more ; 33
to 1 is offered against Mongolian, takers of 40 to 1 : 7 to 1
has been taken on Mr. Day's lot this evening; and 6 to 1
offered the field beats two.
The Oaks remains a dead letter : the old offer, 7 to 1 on
the field ; 12 to 1 agcinst Lampoon.

The betting was ERSAL
confinedl2 to. aboutun haslf-a-dozen horses,
and, except in one instance, was flat and uninteresting. The
Rosalie colt was the exception, 12 to 1 having been taken, to
£2OO, and two or three offers made to back him at an advance
of a point. Closing prices :
