CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS,

THE accounts lately received from Macao, brought intelli-
gence of the English having been totally expelled from
China, and that hostilities had actually commenced between
Her Majesty's forces, directed by her Superintendent in
person, and Chinese men of war; in other wiords, China is
at war with England. And the questions ulftin which the
two countries are now at issue being of su ° difficult adjust-
ment as to render it almost impossible, d certainly impro-
bable, that any more teas can be oht ed from China for a
very considerable period, a great ris n all descriptions of
that article has taken place. Since ne last, common black
teas have risen Is. 9d., .and fine green, 35. per lb. Fine
Hyson, with duty, fetched at the late public sales, 9s. 7d. per
lb. ; fine black teas as high as 6s. 7d., whilst up to this mo-
ment, Captain Pidding has continued to allow his teas to be
sold without any advance whatever. The late great rise,
however, having caused a run upon his teas by the trade, who
found that they could purchase them cheaper retail than
they could buy inferior teas wholesale, he is compelled to
raise the price, to prevent his remaining stock being purchased
by tea dealers. For the present, Captain Pidding's How-
QUA'S MIXTURE will be sold at the rate of 6s. 9d. tier lb.,
being 9s. the catty, or an advance of only 9d. per lb:, when
the commonest teas, since June, have advanced Is. 9d. per lb.
HOWQUA'S SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER will he sold, for the
present, at Os. 9d. per lb., when even Hyson, an inferior tea,
is fetching, wholesale, 9s. 7d. per lb. Half and quarter
catties in like proportions.
Captain Pidding thinks it right to inform the public that
his Chinese correspondent states confidently, that there is no
probability of the trade opening with that country, for, at the
least, twelve months ; and as the entire stock of consumable
tea in Great Britain will be exhausted before that period,
there is little doubt but tea will advance
These Teas consist of Captain Pidding's HOWQUA'S
MIXTURE, of 40 rare Black Teas, and HOWQUA'S
SMALL LEAF GUNPOWDER,in Chinese Catty Packages.

DING" is upon every genuine package.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARRET, Nov. 26.
The appearance of frost has a little affected the market, and we
think Is to 25 per cwt. advance in price of the finer descriptions of
Butter is to be obtained. Pickled Butter is better,—the decline
in the Brazillian markets noted in one of our late reports being
local, (confined crdy to Maranham)—holders have become more
confident, and demand 91s per cwt. for seconds. Beef, Pork, and
Bacon. continue to wear a downward aspect.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 25.
There was a very poor show of stock to-day, decidedly less than
there was last week, small as that was. The demand being fully
equal to the supply, the best beef and mutton were each again id
per lb dearer, and interior nearly as much. Every thing was sold
up. Best beef, 6d to bid; middling and inferior, Id to 6d. Best
mutton, Ejd to jid ; ewes and inferior, sid to bid per lb sinking
the offal.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, NOVEMBER 24.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott 6• Son.)
Since Tuesday last, the arrivals of Oats and Oatmeal from
Ireland have been to a fair extent, but from the foreign ports and
coastways, the imports of. Grain and Flour have been quite trivial,
and during the past week there has been a pretty fair demand for
Wheat and Flour at fully our last quotations. For Oats and Oat-
meal at a small advance, and for all other articles in the corn trade
to a very moderate extent, with little or no variation in prices.
The weather has been rather more favourable during the last
four or rive days for the agricultural operations, but we fear little
progress has been made in Wheat sowing, the land being still very
wet.

Corrozv—Maintains its quiet appearance. Prices have not
varied materially, but show a tendency to recede. At Boston,
the market has been very inactive. The arrivals of new cot-
ton have not been offered in the market. A few small parcels
New Orleans were sold at 11/ a 12. In the southern ports
the influence of the recent warlike news upon the market
tends to check operations. The new crop, in most quarters,
continues to promise well. The fine weather which has ge-
nerally prevailed for the last few weeks, by facilitating the
most important operation of the planter, that of " picking
out," has materially increased the probabilities of a large
yield. The following were the quotations, Liverpool classi-

FOREIGN INTRI4hIOZNair,

LATEST NEWS FROM THE EAST,
(From the Times of Tuesday.)

We have received by an kxtraor mary courier, letters
from our correspondent in Altxandria, of the 2nd instant
and from Malta, of the sth instant, and brought by the Me-
teore and another steam-vessel (name not given), to Mar-
seilles, where they arrived on the 12th instant. It appears
from these letters and journals, that the Euphrates arrived
in Aleikandria on the 30th ult. but took the ground on entering
that harbour, which retarded for some time the delivery of
her despatches.
A large force of the allies, consisting of between 10,000
and 12,000 men, was proceeding to attack Ibrahim in the
plain. He is said to have 15,000 men under his command.
The former was composed of 5,000 Turks, 4,000 Syrian
mountaineers, and 1,500 English. "On the result of the
impending engagement (say our letters), depends the fate of
the campaign. The rumoured spirit of disaffection in the
army of lbraham is, however, a menacing affair, and would
render the issue of the contest in no respect doubtful."
Independently of our own despatches, we find, in the
Semaphore de Marseilles, a private letter, dated Alexandria,
November 1, which states that the last accounts from Syria
were most favourable for Mehemet Ali; that the moun-
taineers were becoming dissatisfied with their new allies, in
consequence of the departure of the Emir Bechir, tbe send-
ing of the prisoners taken from Ibrahim to Constantinople,
and the removal of the mountaineers, who had declared for
the sultan, to points-remote from them. _ _ . .

, .
The Semaphore repeats that the new Emir, with 5000
Turkish troops, 4000 mountaineers, and 1500 English (the
latter under the orders of Commander Napier in person,)
had marched to attack Ibrahim, who had 15,000 men in the
plain.
This correspondent states, that the operations before St.
Jean d'Acre had ceased, or had not commenced, for the want
of adequate means to carry on a siege.

The Malta Times mentions a rumour that, on the contrary,
Acre had fallen into the hands of the allies ; but this report
seems to require confirmation, for a private letter, from a
most respectable quarter in Alexandria, informs us that
Admiral Stopford left Beyrout on the 26th of October, with
two sail of the line, to bombard that place.
The correspondent of the Semaphore states, but erro-
neously no doubt, that the Emir Bechir had been entrapped
on board an English vessel by an invitation to a grand dinner,
and then told he must go to London. He requested to be
conveyed to France or Rome, but was refused.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER.—Owing to the continued pressure in the
money market, the demand continues limited ; and prices,
both of goods and yarn, gradually decline, sales having been
made within the last three days on lower terms than were
ever before known. At the same time, it must be added,
that stocks are by no means heavy ; and, a revival of de-
mand (which may be hoped for whenever a favourable change
takes place in the London money market), would probably
be followed by a decided improvement.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, Nov. 16.
There has been a little more doing in the piece market to-
day, but the prices have been extremely low. There is no
change in the wool market to report : prices remain firm at
last week's quotation.
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, Nov. 17.—This market to-day
was any thing but a good one, there being few buyers, and
the little business done was unprofitable, except in low heavy
goods, which are still in request at moderate prices for the
season. A general flatness prevails both in the market and
the warehouses ; but strong hopes are entertained of a brisk
trade after Christmas.—Manchester Guardian.

DUNDEE.—Our markets for linens, flax, and yarns, remain
unaltered, though codillas are held rated firmer. Advices
from St. Petersburg are to the 18th-30th ultimo; they state
that the lateness of the season, and the little shipping remain-
ing, induces the expectation that no more flax will be shipped
from thence this season. The crop of this year, to come
down in 1841, is reported of unusually good quality. Let-
ters of 31st ult., from Riga, say flax prices remain unaltered.
fresh flax being in demand; the weather had become dry,
which would facilitate the supply ; and, as ship room was
plenty, prices were not expected to decline. Yarns continue
to go off freely, and linens we do not think are accumulating ;
but the lowness of the prices are complained of, and not
without reason.—. Dundee Advertiser.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-11-20

IMPROVED SODA POWDERS

It has been observed—tKatTh; Soda Water, when kept in
jars, parts with its carbonic gas ; that carriage of it to a dis-
tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ;
and that, from these inconveniences, its use has been con-
fined chiefly to large cities and their environs. To obviate
these objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and
efficacious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered
to the public.—Sold in Boxes, at Is. 6d. each.
FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA.
In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro-
perties of Sarsaparilla Root., To persons, therefore, who,
from -various pauses, would experience great inconvenience,
or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the
Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses
the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate,
will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much
esteemed Medicine.

Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine-
glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to
half a pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed
by the London, Edinburgh. and Dublin Pharmacopoeias.
The diseases in which it has proved. most beneficial are
those of the Skin ; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive
Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c., arising from a diseased
state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim-
ples, &o. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior.
The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation
has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of
Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole "medicinal virtues of the
Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses
no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is
injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation.
PRIESTLEY'S FLUID MAGNESIA.

A pure transparent solution, in which all the virtues of
that admirable Medicine are concentrated. As an Antacid
and Cooling Medicine for grown persons or children it can-
not be surpassed, and being nearly tasteless, children will
take it without trouble. In conjunction with the Syrup of
Citron it forms an effervescing draught.
The Syrup of Citron, added to water, makes delicious Le-
monade, And as a refreshing drink in summer nothing can
be more agreeable.

PRIESTLEY'S STOMACHIC OR DINNER PILLS.
These pills are purely Vegetable, and to those troubled with
Indigestion or sensation of fulness at the stomach after meals
they are invaluable.—ln Boxes at Is. and 2s. 6d. each.

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS have
through the notoriety of their great efficacy, become
the only Medicine in general use, for the cure of those
dreadfully painful diseases, Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Rheuma-
tism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Tic Doloreux, Pains in the Head
and Face, frequently mistaken for the Toothache, and all
analogous complaints. The recent testimonials of Lieut.
Masters (of Hawley, near Bagshot) late of the Royal
Newfoundland Veteran Companies, who was invalided home
by a Garrison order, together with the numerous certificates
which have been published from persons in every station of
life, from all parts of the Empire, particularly those of the
Rev. Dr. Blomberg, the Chevalier De la Garde, &c., &c.,
demonstrate the preparation to be one of the greatest dis-
coveries in Medicine.

SPAIN.

MADRID, Nov. B.—A bad intelligence continues to pre-
vail among the members of the Regency • this is to be regret-
ted, as it may prevent the good effects likely to arise from the
conservative policy adopted by the Ministers. M. Ferrer,
it appears, wishes to be lord paramount, and intends, should
he fail in his ambitious designs, to be ambassador at the court
of the Tuileries. H. Hermandez, nominated by his influ-
ence, holds that post but provisionally.
M. Corradi, secretary to the late provisional governmental
junta, has incurred the high displeasure of the Duke of Vit-
toria, by the inflexible firmness with which he insisted on the
total dissolution of the senate.

Some of the juntas seem to be unwilling to resign their
short-lived power—others call loudly for a prompt convoca-
tion of the Cortes. Their hopes of having a central junta are
quite vain—the Regency and the Cortes will, henceforth, be
the ruling powers.

GREECE.
TORTURE AND LEGAL MURDER IN GREECE.

ATHENS, OCT. 20.—1 n my last letter I gave you an ac-
count of the torture practised in this capital on the person of
the Albanian Christian Nicholas Panajotti, by the mirarque
of gendarmerie, Tzinos, the monster whose atrocities on the
frontier are well known to both King Otho and his father.
It appears, however, that these horrors are nothing compared
with what are going on in the provinces ; for in the Amie du
Peuple, No. 76, we find the following extract :—" Finally,
we ask the Courier Grec if the lives of Greek citizens are in
safety when they can be imprisoned on simple suspicion or
frivolous charges ? or when a royal decree authorises the
apothecaries of the kingdom to give deleterious drugs to bri-
gands for the purpose of poisoning them ? Is not this latter
act of the government an evident attempt upon the lives of
all citizens, of whom the official murderers 'may, without
fear of punishment, kill as many as their political passions
may excite them to get rid of."

The Duchess of Gloucester and the Duke of Cambridge

The band of the second regiment of life guards was in

His Royal Highness Prince Albert, attended by Colonel
Wylde, rode out on horseback yesterday.
The Duke of Cambridge attended Divine service, on Sun-
day afternoon, in the chapel at Hampton Court. His royal
highness, attended by Baron Knesebeck, honoured Mr.
Cullen Smith with his company at dinner in the evening.

s to be deprecated, ma}, we ad-

of two evils. When the
national honour, or other national interests are at issue,
a warlike policy may be consistent with the most rigid
prudence ; for of all possible accidents, dishonour is
the most costly that may befal a great people. But
war is to be justified only by a necessity of the highest
order; and in the present condition of Great Britain,
the necessity must be indisputable, that shall warrant
a departure from the policy of peace. Great Britain is
not only unprovided with money, with armies, with
fleets—with all the appliances, in short, for carrying on
war successfully ; but her productive energies are crip-
pled, the principles that regulate her industrial system
are unsound ;—discord and strife divide the various

We have had no direct arrival from this quarter since our
last publication ; but the fall of Acre, referred to in our sup-
plement of the 2d instant, as having been reported by a
French steamer . (we imagine the Etwhrates, which had con-
veyed Khosrew Effendi to Acre, on a mission'from Mehemet
Ali), seems to be confirmed by the Confiance, which arrived
here on the 2d instant, and brings the same report. If this
be really confirmed, a speedy termination of the eastern ques-
tion may be expected, as Mehemet Ali, abandoned by France,
will find it necessary to succumb to save Egypt, which the
allies may consent to allow him to retain the hereditary pos-
session of. Indeed M. Cochelet, after the arrival at Alex-
andria of a French steamer from Toulon, on the 24th ultimo,
intimated to Mehemet Ali that France and England would
soon be "d'accord."

LIVERPOOL COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
SIR,—An anonymous correspondence, calculated to pro-
duce erroneous impresSions respecting the cause of Mr.
Elmes' non-employment as the superintending architect of
the Collegiate Institution, having appeared in the Liverpool
newspapers, the committee deem it hut an act of justice to
Mr. Elmes to make known the real circumstances of the
Case.

I am, therefore, directed to state officially, that the only
reason why Mr. Elmes is not so employed, was, (as publicly
explained by the rev. chairman of the committee, Mr.
Brooks, at the laying of the foundation stone, in a manner
perfectly satisfactory to all the partics.coneerned,) entirely of
a pecuniary nature; and that the committee would otherwise
have gladly availed themselves throughout of the professional
services of a gentlemen whose design has given such perfect
satisfaction.
In evidence of the good feeling which subsists between the
committee and Mr. Elmes, I may be permitted to mention,
that Mr. Limes has, in the most handsome and honourable
manner, offered, not only to furnish working drawings for
such portions of the edifice as affect its architectural charac-
ter, but to superintend their execution, free of all charge,
and that his offer has been accepted by the committee.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,

LATEST INTELLIGENCE FROM SYRIA.

We are indebted to a gentleman on board the Austrian
steamer Ludovico, arrived this morning from Beyrout, which
she left on the 23d, for the following :
Beyrout was at this period resuming, in some measure, her
commercial activity. A Turkish custom-house had been
established, and many families who had fled from it to Cyprus
had returned. _ _

___ ...._.........
Tripoli has fallen. The Austrian frigate Clemenza remains
to protect and effect the landing of a small body of troops.
Reinforcements were daily expected. It is very difficult for
the garrison to operate a junction with the main army, being
entirely surrounded by the mountaineers.
St. Jean d'Acre had not been attacked as yet ; but it was
expected that a force would be immediately sent there for
that purpose. Ibrahim Pasha was, it is said, at Marsaka,
near Mount Lebanon ; and Soliman Pasha at Balbeck, with
a handful of troops. Desertions continue daily, and these
pashas are severely molested by the mountaineers.
The Emir Bechir and his family were sent, on the 22d
inst., to Malta, from Saida, in her Britannic majesty's steamer
Cyclops.
