LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCTOBER 24.

Since this day se'nnight we have received upwards of 11,000
quarters of Oats and 8,100 loads of Oatmeal from Ireland : other
wise the imports of British Grain. &c. have been moderate. The
arrivals from abroad consist of 13,830 quarters of Wheat with
15,616 barrels of Flour from the United States and 5,500 barrels
from Canada. Of the two former, however, only 2,025 quarters and
6g7 barrels respectively were:duty-paid from the 15th to thc 21st -
instant, inclusive ; the rate on Wheat is now 22s 8d per quarter.
on Flour I3s Rd per barrel. Though we still cannot report any
thing like activity in the Wheat trade. a few purchases of free
Foreign have been made, as well for the interior as for shipment to
Ireland ; and, at yesterday's market, the full prices of Tuesday
were realized. Flour has, throughout the week, been dull of sale :
United States, which constitutes the great bulk of the stock, at 33s
to 33s 6cl per barrel. The recent reduction in our prices for new
Oats and Oatmeal has given us a somewhat more extended demand
for both articles ; and, the greater part of the supply having been
cleared off, a slight reaction has, during the last two days, taken
place in their value. At Manchester, to-day, choice mealing parcels
of Oats brought 2s lid to 35 per 451bs, Oatmeal '2ss Ga to 268 per
load. Two or three cargoes of English new Barley have arrived.
the quality generally fine. Some very choice Chevalier has brought

grinding at 4s 6d to 45 gd per 601bs. Old Beans, being scarce.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-FRIDAY.

COMMITMENT.
A woman, named Susannah Berns, was placed at the
bar on a charge of having stolen two silver sauce ladles.
The prisoner had gone to the shop of Mr. Higginson,
pawnbroker, Park-lane, and offered the ladles to pledge.
Mr. Higginson suspecting all was not right, called in
police-officer No. 47, Terence Murphy, who questioned
the prisoner as to where she got the spoons. She stated that
she had found them in an empty house, but refused to say
what house. She was taken into custody, and the officer
made inquiry for the owner of the ladles, and found they
belonged to Mr. James Garnett Headlam, of No. 4, Hardy-
street. Mr. Headlam identified the ladles, and said the
prisoner had been employed by him to clean the house, and
he saw her there on Monday last. He saw the ladles in a
closet on the Saturday previous. The prisoner said she was
throwing some rubbish out of the cellar, and did not know
the ladles were Mr. Headlam's. She was committed for
trial at the sessions.

STEALING FROM A VESSEL.

placed at the bar
A young Cole, was
on the following charge. John Dholky said he was boat-
swain of the ship Regular, lying in the Prince's Dock.—..
On Thursday at noon he went to dinner, and returned
about half-past one o'clock. Soon afterwards he was
informed that a man
had carried off his pea-jacket
and he found the prisoner in a puhlicorhouse in Dutton-street,
with the jacket on. /Ie asked him where
he was sweeping the
where he got it, and he
while
said he got it the night before
decks of the ship. He was given into custody. The corn
plainant said the prisoner was not employed on board the
vessel. He had offered his services, but complainant would
not have him. The prisoner persisted in saying that he was
employed to clean the decks. He was committed for trial at
the sessions.

Frank Murphy, ThomasPOCRBT-PICKING Bancroft, and James M'Ghee,
of Manchester, were charged with having picked a gen-
tleman's pocket of a silk handkerchief. • On one of them was
found an ingenious hook of about eight inches long, made of
steel, with a handle, evidently for the purpose of' extract-
ing articles from the pockets of the unwary. The case being
proved, the prisoners were committed
to the House of
Correction for three months.
A PUBLICAN FINED.
Philip Goughen, publican, Scotland-place, was fined Li
and costs, for entertaining loose and disorderly persons in his
house at an early hour on Sunday morning. Mr. Rushton
remarked that the police-officers had much trouble in keeping
the town in a decent state on Sunday mornings, through the
publicans encouraging drunkenness. He added, that the
defendant had been fined for the same offence in June last,
and if he were again brought up he would be deprived of his
license.

PROLIFIC.—Mr. R. Carr, of Kelficld, has produced in his
garden this season three crops of kidney potatoes from the
same ground. The last were taken up on the Bth of October.

ranged within 4 per cent. The delivery of stock on sales
made in the after-part of yesterday affected the market on

recovered, the Jews appearing as purchasers. Consols were
at one period marked 871, but at the close of the day they
were 87+ to : the last money price was 86+ to 7. Bank
Stock is declining, and left off 159 to 161 prem. India Stock

mingham were last quoted 62 to 64 pm. ; Brighton, 131 to
111 dis. ; Blackwall, 44 to 44 dis. ; Southampton, 49 to 50
per share; Great Western, 101 to 111 pm. ; New North
Midland, 3 to 1 dis, ; and North Midland, 23 to 21 discount.
FRIDAY EYENING.—There was a good deal of business
to-day in the funds, and considerable fluctuations, but
eventually the prices closed rather worse than yesterday.
Consols were 874 for money and 87+ to 1 for account. Bank
stock 160 to 1 ; India stock 24:3 to 4. Exchequer bills par
to 2 pm.

TO OUR READERS.

In consequence of the extraordinary demand for our
impression of Friday last, we find it impossible to sup-
ply those distant readers who have forwarded to us
orders for copies of that publication. When those
orders were received we had not a single copy left out
of the very large issue of Friday's STANDARD.—
The only way in which' we can render an equivalent
for the orders with which we have been favoured is by
forwarding copies of our present publication to the
dfferent applicants. We cannot allow this opportunity
to pass without expressing our grateful acknowledge-
ments for the handsome manner in which our exertions
to provide a full report of Thursday's proceedings
were appreciated by the public. We have the plea-
sure' to reflect that our report has given entire satis-
faction.

THE PROTESTANT ALMANACK.

FOR 1841.
Fill be published on the sth of NOVEMBER, in a
Book and Sheet.

PRICE THREE-PENCE EACH.
CONTAINING a Record of the most important His-
torical events, relative to the origin and process of
Papal usurpation, persecution, idolatry and corruption, from
its rise to the present time, together, with a most accurate
Tide-table for London and Liverpool, also much useful and
instructive information of the utmost value to Protestants
of every denomination, compiled by JOSEPH CRISP, of
Liverpool.

The great encouragement given to the publication of the
" Protestant Almanack for 1840," although brought out
unaer every disadvantage, has determined the compiler to
spare no trouble or expense in the design and arrangement of
his Almanack for 1841. The. Sheet Almanack will contain
beautifully executed Wood Engravings of
THE MARTYRDOM OF ARCHBISHOP CRANMZE,
BEAD OF BISHOP RIDLEY,
MASSACRE OF ST. BARTHOLEMEW,
HEAD OF BISHOP LATIMER,
SIEGE OF DERRY,
DERRY TESTIMONIAL, &C. &C.
As nothing but a most extensive sale can cover the heavy
outlay upon so cheap a work, the compiler sincerely trusts
that every good friend of the cause will use his endeavours to
extend its circulation.

NEW LITHOGRAPHIC ESTABLISHMENT,

ABOVE THE ALBION BANK, LIVERPOOL.

MACLURE AND MACDONALD, LITHOGRAPHERS,
DRAUGHTSMEN, ENGRAVERS, and ORNAMENTAL
PRINTERS to the Qu'een, Glasgow, respectfully announce
that they have OPENED the above Establishment, in
conjunction with their friend Mr. ALEXANDER MAC-
GREGOR, who, during the last three years, had a prin-
cipal charge in their Glasgow House, and whose talents
as a Lithographer are of the first description, whom they
have assumed as a partner in this concern, and under whose
management the business in Liverpool will be principally
conducted.

The demand in Liverpool for superior Lithography, from
its universal application to Mercantile and Ornamental pur-
poses, has induced them to open this branch, while the cele-
brity their Glasgow Establishment has attained, united to
their unceasing and persevering efforts to maintain and in-
crease the reputation of the Art, assures them of meeting
with that distinguished preference they have so eminently
obtained in Glasgow.
The business will be carried on under the firm of
11ACLURE, MACDONALD, & MACGREGOR ;*

and, every department being filled up with artists of the first
reputation, will ensure promptitude and superior excellency
in the production of every order intrusted to them.
APPRENTICES WANTED for the various departments.
Those for Drawing and Writing will require to lodge speci-
mens, and none need apply uuless they display a decided
taste for the Art.

The only way in which we can render an equivalent
for the orders with which we have been favoured is by
forwarding copies of our present publication to the
different applicants. We cannot allow this opportunity
to pass without expressing our grateful acknowledge-
ments for the handsome manner in which our exertions
to provide a full report of Thursday's proceedings
were appreciated by the public. We have the plea-
sure to reflect that our report has given entire satis-
faction.
