LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 30.

In the early part of the week the demand was moderate, but since
Tuseday it has been very extensive, particularly from speculators,
whose purchases have been larger during the last three days than
in any one week for many years. The trade have bough t sparingly ,
and shew some unwillingness to pay the increased prices now de-
manded. The advance since last Friday is Id to id per lb upon the
low to fair qualities of American and Surat, whilst good remain
without alteration ; Brazil of all descriptions, and Egyptian, have
been rather neglected, but are saleable at last week's rates ; Sea
Island has been in great request, and the middle classes are Id to Id
per lb higher. Speculators have taken 28,500 American, 500 Per
nambuco and 1500 Surat.

be acknowledged, and the blessing implored. Therefore, I
devolve this cause upon your prayers, as well as upon your
zeal and energy. It was a noble remark of the missionary
Elliott, and it should never be lost sight of, in whatever walk
of Christian philanthropy we may be embarked,—that prayer
will be of no avail without pains, and that pains will be of
no avail without prayer. I, therefore, conclude, in the impres-
sive language of that devoted and apostolical labourer, that,
through faith in Jesus Christ, it is in the power of prayer
and pains to do anything. (Loud cheers.)

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH,
Price is. I;(2d. per box.

ripH IS excellent Family Pill is a Medicine of long-tried
_I efficacy for correcting all Disorders of the Stomach and
Bowels, the common symptoms of which are Costiveness,
Flatulency, Spasms, loss of Appetite, Sick Head-ache, Gid-
diness, Sense of Fulness after meals, Dizziness of the Eyes.
Drowsiness, and Pains in the Stomach and Bowels, Indiges-
tion producing a Torpid State of the Liver, and a consequent
inactivity of the Bowels, causing a disorganization of every
function of the frame, will in this most excellent preparation,
by a little perseverance, be effectually removed. Two or
three doses will convince the afflicted of its salutary effects.
The Stomach will speedily regain its strength; a healthy
action of the Liver, Bowels, and Kidneys will rapidly take
place; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaundiced
appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health will be
the quick result of taking this Medicine according to the
directions accompanying each box.
These'Pills are particularly efficacious for Stomach Coughs,
Colds, Agues, Shortness of Breath, and all obstructions in
the Urinary Passages; and if taken after too free an indul-
gence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural
state of repose.
Persons of a FULL HABIT, who are subject to Head-
ache, Giddiness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, ari-
sing from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never
be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be en-
tirely carried off by their immediate use.
FOR FEMALtS these Pills are most truly excellent,
removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very
prevalent with the sex, Depression of Spirits, Dulness of
Sight, Nervous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallow-
ness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to
the complexion.
To MOTHERS they are confidently recommended as the
best medicine that can he taken during pregnancy; and for
Children of all ages they are unequalled.
As a pleasant, safe, easy Aperient, they unite the recom-
mendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect,
and require no restraint of diet or confinement during their
use. By regulating the dose according to the age and
strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case,
in either sex, that can be required; and for ELDERLY
PEOPLE they will be found to be the most comfortable
Medicine hitherto prepared.

and drudgery of the fags of Downing-street, who in
type distort reason and pervert truth, will screen their
masters from its debasement.

When we refer to the impropriety and impolicv of
Lord Durham's appointment, we build our objection
on two grounds; fiast, the unconstitutional character
of the appointment d priori ; secondly, the personal
incompetency of the noble lord to sustain a duty
and a trust so burdensome and mighty in the weighty
category of their provisions and their consequences.
The very first personal selections made by Lord Dur-
ham, the legal appointments to posts of trust and con-
fidence conferred by him, prove his lordship to have
been either the weakest or the most imaginably rash
and inconsiderate of men. With a towering assump-
tion of mental self-superiority, a haughty insensi-
bility of temper, unsubdued from his childhood, and
nurtured by his high aristocratic predilections, how-
ever he may in political anger have stultified them in
addressing the Glasgow reform mobs, (who consume
his coals,) a very superficial knowledge of and a qua-
lified respect for the fundamental principles of the
British constitution, an impatience of all control, and
a haste of temperament but ill-suited to the cooler
ardour and grave calculation needful in grave emer-
gencies, with more of philosophy than of sterling
Christianity in his reforming opinions—under such a
combination of mental and physical character, for
which Lord Durham is not morally responsible mole
than other men imbued with similar feelings of

humanity, he yet was not the man to act discreetly
nor to conciliate, in our judgment, the weighty con
flitting interests of the British Canadian colony.

and drudgery of the fags of Downing-street, who in
type distort reason and pervert truth, will screen their
masters from its debasement.

When we refer to the impropriety and impolicy of
Lord Durham's appointment, we build our objection
on two grounds; fiast, the unconstitutional character
of the appointment d priori; secondly, the personal
incompetency of the noble lord to sustain a duty
and a trust so burdensome and mighty in the weighty,
category of their provisions and their consequences.
The very first personal selections made by Lord Dur-
ham, the legal appointments to posts of trust and con-
fidence conferred by him, prove his lordship to have
been either the weakest or the most imaginably rash
and inconsiderate of men. With a towering assump-
tion of mental self-superiority, • a haughty insensi-
bility of temper, unsubdued from his childhood, and
nurtured by his high aristocratic predilections, how-
ever he may in political anger have stultified them in
addressing the Glasgow reform mobs, (who consume
his coals,) a very superficial knowledge of and a qua-
lified respect for the fundamental principles of the
British constitution, an impatience of all control, and
a haste of temperament but ill-suited to the cooler
ardour and grave calculation needful in grave emer-
gencies, with more of philosophy than of sterling
Christianity in his reforming opinions—under such a
combination of mental and physical character, for
which Lord Durham is not morally responsible mote
than other• men imbued with similar feelings of
humanity, he yet was not the man to act discreetly,
nor to conciliate, in our judgment, the weighty con-
flicting interests of the British Canadian colony.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Dec. I.
Between the dose of last week and yesterday the imports of
every article of the Corn trade were extremely light; but the
change of wind which then took place has brought up numerous
cargoes of Grain, &c. both coastwise and from Ireland. On Tues-
day a fair amount of business was transacted, with a considerable
advance in the value of most articles in the trade : prices of Wheat
were noted 6d per bushel, those of Oats Id., Flour 3s per sack, and
Oatmeal 2s per load above our quotations of this day se'nniglit.
The best Baltic red W cent selling at lis 3d to Ilslrish new at
lOs to lOs Odper 701bs : fine mealing Oats at 3s Od to 3s led per
451bs; and Oatmeal at 35s to 36s per 2401b5. Flour brought 6ls to
66s per sack. These rates were subsequently maintained, and, at
yesterday's market, although our millers held back for the sup-
plies then hourly expected. they were again repeated. The mar-
ket has continued hare of Barley, which, being in request, would
command fully our top quotation. 44s to 45s per quarter has been
paid for a little choice Chevalier. Beans are fully as dear. Peas,
of which there is scarcely any here, except those in bond, are in-
quired for, and fine white breakers would readily sell at 52% per
imperial quarter. Several parcels of bonded Wheat have been
sold during the week at lOs 9d to Its per 701bs.

THE NEWS OF THE DAY.

BY NAHUM WHIsTLECRAVT.

Some people think there can be nothing worse,
When, pen in hand, they're silting down to write,
No matter if the subject 'a prose or verse,
To find they can nor good nor bad indite.
But writing nonsense is the greater curse;
I think you own, too, what I say is right:
Nay more, those rascals well deserve the lash
Who overwhelm the world with worthless trash.

In this most gloomy month, the last but one
Of what men have agreed to call a year,
The same in which they end themselves upon
The vague idea that 'twill end their care;
The same, also, when those yclept the " ton,"
Are scattered, like the Jews, both here and there,
My pen in hand most doggedly I take
To keep myself this murky day awake.
And besides this, there is one motive more
Induces me to take my pen in hand :
Since parliament has been prorogued, the store
Of ready news the newsmen can command
Has been bashed up, and daily brought before
(In sundry forms) the public of this land;
And but for Durham mustard's piquant flavour
We should have all been sicken'd with the savour.
