STATE OF TRADE

MANCHESTER.--There was not the slightest appearance
of improvement in the market yesterday ; the demand both
for goods and yarns being on the most limited scale, and
prices, in all cases, at the very lowest previous rates.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, Nov. 23.—
We have had a very dull market to-day, and there has been
but a very indifferent attendance of buyers. The quantity of
goods sold has been very limited, and the prices very low.
The wool market has been Still more gloomy : as to prices in
the finer wools there is no change, but broken noils were
offered at a shade lower. To-day some of the cotton facto-
ries have begun to work short time.

HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, Nov. 24.—This was another
dull market; and we fear the same monotonous report will
have to be made during the remainder of the year, unless
something unexpected takes place. Heavy woollens are
still in tolerable demand. As to other goods, a few insigni-
ficant sales only takes place. The arrival of the President is
anxiously looked for, both for orders, and on account of the
extraordinary delay in its arrival. Business in the ware-
houses has undergone no change for the better. The wool
market is heavy. Prices merely nominal.—Manchester
Guardian.

THE CARACCI.—These magnificent productions are the
delight of every one who pays them a visit. Independently
of their merit as works of art, they have the interest of anti-
quity, and the still nobler recommendation of representing
the Saviour of the world doing good by performing some of
his stupendous miracles. But to he properly appreciated
they must be seen. Mr. Bentley, who has the care of these
treasures, is a very intelligent man ; and he seems to take
great pleasure in imparting his information to the visitors.
We trust that he and his spirited principal may have reason
to boast of having visited Liverpool.

BIRTH OF THE PRINCESS ROYAL—The second edition of
The Times of Saturday, announcing the birth of a princess,
published (as it appears from The Times) one hour, within a
few minutes, after the happy occurrence took place, was the
first harbinger of the event to the inhabitants of Liverpool.
No sooner had it reached the office of Mr. Gaskill,:the agent,
than the office was besieged with anxious inquirers, to ascer-
tain whether her Majesty had been blessed with a prince or
princess. rhe news was quickly communicated to most parts
of the town, and, notwithstanding it being the Sabbath, co-
lours were hoisted, and other manifestations of joy were per-
ceptible among the loyal inhabitants. The steamers plying
to the Cheshire shore, her Majesty's mail for Dublin, and
the ships in the various docks, also displayed their colours,
and the river presented a very animated appearance. Several
of the "Sunday" papers, which arrived in the morning, stated
that her Majesty was in excellent health, and that her ac-
couchement might be expected some time in December. The
Times of " Saturday"
containing the announcement of the
interesting event, and the " Sunday" papers not alluding to
it, excepting as above-mentioned, led many of the ludicrously
wise to doubt the fact. The statement of The Times, how-
ever (though it required none), received afterwards ample
confirmation and the announcement of the happy event was,
as we have stated, met here with a general burst of joy.

TO CORRESPONDENTS

CHURCH PASTORAL AID SOCIETY

ADDITIONAL ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED VESTXRDAY

Mr. Thomas Barber, 1, Dale-street los.
Mr. John Middleton, 65, High-street, Edge-hill.. 10a

In the report of the speeches at the Welsh Dinner, which
appeared in our Tuesday's paper, one or two slight in-
accuracies occurred. The gentleman who presented the
Hirlas Horn to Sir Joshua Walmsley, and was erroneously
described as the Rev. Mr. Hughes, was Dr. Hughes, of
St. Anne-street.

In the letter of Mr. Briarly Browne to the secretary of the
Pastoral Aid Society, and inserted in the STANDARD of
Friday last, occurs the following passage—" Whilst I shall
make it my study to set forth in all its fulness the atoning
sacrifice of Christ, I shall not fail to impress upon my
hearers the observance of the divine admonition—' If ye
love me keep my commandments.' "—We have been se-
verely taken to task for italicising the last three words, but
we apprehend our intelligent reprover will be surprised to
hear that Mr. Browne himself must have been desirous for
some reason, of drawing particular attention to the ex-
pression, as it was previously printed in the journals which
advocate his claims, precisely as it appeared in the STAND..
A RD. Of course we could have no motive in laying any spe-
cial stress on an injunction—the obedience to which, we
hold of vital importance.--A similar remark may be made
respecting another word which has called forth censure
from the same quarter.
