TO CORRESPONDENTS

An excellent letter will be found elsewhere from the pen of
the Rev. Hugh M'lsleile, in answer to a circular from the
Manchester conventionalists.
The assize intelligence occupies almost all our available space.
We had prepared an article on the alleged imperfections of
the " sliding scale," but we are compelled to postpone its
insertion.
A correspondent calls our attention to some extremely ill-
timed and reprehensible observations made use of by Dr.
Epps, in the course of lectures which he is now delivering
in this town, on physiology. The doctor, whilst speaking
on the causes that produce crooked limbs in children, and
the best means of preventing such deformity, is represented
as having recommended the use of " good food," which,
said the lecturer, "it is impossible to look for, and,
"consequently, we must have crooked limbs, so long
" as we are not allowed to buy corn where it is cheap, but
" are forced to buy where it pleases the legislature to let us
" have it." Well may we say what next? Tnis is the age
of humbug truly, but we were certainly not prepared for
such a non sequitur as this. Dr. Epps may possibly
ascribe the origin of " all the ills that flesh is heir to" to
the existing corn laws, but he should embrace a more
favourable opportunity of promulgating his sentiment than
during the delivery of a lecture on physiology, he may be
listened to with interest when confining his remarks to the
subject in hand, but he will only excite disgust when he
wanders from it to indulge in observations on a question
which he evidently does not understand.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUG. 29

Business commenced this morning with a general and pretty
good deinand, which ho wever was not maintained throughout
the day, and prices were taken later on which had been pre-
viously refused. 4,000 bales will be the utmost extent of
sales for the day, and those of the week amount to 32,470
bales, 7,000 American to speculation, and 2,660 to export.
Prices close at /d. advance on last week, with a tamer mar-
ket.

COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 21

The continued rain damps the ardour of our market, and relaxes
nerves of our holders, who seem more anxious to effect sales than
previously this week. We cannot, notwithstanding, quote any
decided change, except that the buyer purchases with less difficulty.
The sales are only 3000 bales, all of which have been taken by the
trade, and the market closes with a somewhat subdued tone, com-
pared with the middle of the week.

COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 23

The demand for Cotton this morning was very general, and bid
fair for large business, but the unwillingness of buyers to give the
late advance caused them to " fight shy," and purchase in very
small quantities, consequently the market has had a desponding
appearance, and only 3000 to 3500 bales have been sold at Satur-
day's prices, with a slight change in favour of the purchaser.

COTTON MARKET-WEEKLY REPORT

The improvement in the state of the weather has given holders
more confidence, and a larger business has been done than for
some time past, the trade, speculators and exlsarters having pur.
chased freely. Prices of American are 0, and, in some instances,
id per lb. higher ; in other descriptions no improvement can be
noticed. 7000 American have been taken on speculation, and 1900
American, 600 Surat, and 200 Peruvian for export.

From the 6th to the 12th instant, inclusive.

MANSLAUGHTER,

William Swift, 41, was indicted for having, at Manchester,
killed and slain one John M`Donald.
_ _

Mr. Monk prosecuted ; Mr. Wilkins appeared for the pri-
soner. t

Deceased and prisoner, along with several other persons,
were drinking together in a liquor vault, when, in conse-
quence of prisoner's refusing to treat deceased with liquor, a
quarrel ensued, and deceased made use of some observations
relative to prisoner's deceased wife, calculated to raise his
anger; in consequence of which prisoner struck him a blow
that caused him to fall against the shop counter, and receive
a wound in the head that resulted in death.

The prisoner received the character of being an extremely
humane man ; in consequence of which, and the great pro-
vocation given by deceased to the prisoner, his lordship said
he was induced to pass an exceedingly light sentence. The
prisoner was ordered to be imprisoned for ten days.

THE CONFERENCE AT MANCHESTER

At the Manchester Police-court, on Thursday, the clerical
squabblers, who are now sitting in solemn conclave at Man-
chester, summoned three social clergymen, named Campbell,
Loyd Jones, and Robert Buchanan, for forcibly entering the
Town-hall on the previous day, while the " National Con-
ference" was sitting, and thereby annoying the whig-radical
reverends then in debate. _

•
The nature of the attempt to obtain admission having been
described,
The Rev. A. Campbell said, I claim the right to go into
the room as a minister, according to the invitation given. I
believe that the parties who refused me admission bad no
right to do so. I have come from a considerable distance to
attend the conference by invitation, signed by the secretary
of the conference.
The Rev. Mr. MASSIE.—The conference was not intended
for any parties but ministers of the gospel, and therefore
these men had no right to admission.
The Rev. Mr. Campbell.—Men, eh ? Well, that's civil!
I am a minister as well as yourself. and I hold in my hand a
letter from the secretary of the conference requesting me to
attend, and my name has been publicly advertised in some of
the Manchester papers, as one of the ministers who had been
summoned to attend the meeting. I have come some dis-
tance, and have applied for my tickets in the usual way with
others, but I was refused, and therefore I had no remedy but
to enforce my right to be present by getting into the room in
the best way I could.
The magistrate.—l am not here to judge of your preten •
sions, and I cannot enter into a discussion on that matter.
I discharge the case.
The rev. socialists then left the Court-house, and again
proceeded to the Town-ball, from which they were forcibly
ejected by the door-keeper. Shortly afterwards they re-
turned to the Borough-court, and applied for a warrant or
summons for Mr. James Thompson, a gentleman who assist-
ed in ejecting them, which was, however, refused. Upon the
whole, the Auti- Corn-Law League, with their " national "
ministerial conference, do not appear to have taken much by
their movements. The working classes do not seem to have
the slightest interest in their proceedings, and the respectable
portion of the community have not countenanced them.
Ridicule appears to be all the conference has earned for it-
self. Lampooning songs have been writen upon them, and
sung about the streets.

Messrs. Burton are manufacturers at Manchester, and the
prisoners are the sons of James Scholfield, residing at Saddle-
worth, a person who was in the habit of dealing with them,
and in the month of January last there was a balance of £22
due on the account, and the prisoners, on the 12th of that
month, brought the bill in question, drawn by James Schol-
field, the father, and professing to bear the acceptance of a
firm in Coleman-street, London, of the name of George
Campbell and Co., to Messrs. Burton's, who refused to take
it up until they had made inquiry relative to the firm of
Campbell and Co. The following day the prisoners again
called upon Messrs. Burton, and stated that they were well
acquainted with the firm of Campbell and Co,—that it was a
shipping house of great respectability, and that they had fre-
quently had bill transactions with the firm. When the bill
became due it turned out that no such parties as Campbell
and Co. were in existence. Upon making inquiry in Cole-
man-street, it was found that two persons had taken a lower
apartment, at 71, Coleman-street, and at the time of doing
so represented themselves to be agents for a firm in Manches-
ter, but that they had left the premises a few days before in-
quiry was made after them.
Sir GREGORY LEWIN addressed the jury, for the prisoners,
and contended that, as it had not been shown by the case for
the prosecution that the firm of " Campbell" was not a bone
fide concern, there was no evidence of the bill being a forgery;
and even could this be shown, the prisoners were merely
acting as the agents of the father.
The jury found both the prisoners guilty. Sentence de-
ferred.

BY SPECIAL APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY AND ALL
THE ROYAL FAMILY.
SCHWEPPE'S SODA AND POTASS WATERS,
AND 1E RATED LEMONADE.
THE continued preference of the Public for the above
celebrated preparations (notwithstanding the low price
at which imitations are rendered), so abundantly proves
their superior quality, that it only remains for the manufac-
turers to express their acknowledgments, and to caution
consumers against an imposition frequently practised by un-
principled persons filling SCHWEPPE'S bottles with a
spurious composition, and passing it off as SCH WEPPE'S
manufacture. None are genuine without a label represent-
ing the name of their firm.
SCHWEPPE'S LIQUID MAGNESIA.
This elegant solution is produced by the aid of their power-
ful machinery skilfully directed, and consists of the purest
distilled water, and the best carbonate of magnesia. This
invaluable alkali in the fluid form is so rapidly superseding
its use in the solid state for cases of Gout, Gravel, Diseases
of Children, Sea Sickness, &c., avoiding, as it does, the in.
jurious tendency of the latter to lodge and accumulate in the
bowels, that the Public attention cannot be too often directed
to the source where they may obtain the preparation in the
highest state of perfection. Manufactured at 51, Berners'-
street, London ; and sold, wholesale, at their branch manu-
factories in Liverpool, Bristol, and Derby, and at the Lon-
don Patent Medicine Houses.
Export orders manufactured especially for Warm Climates.

CHALLENGE TO THE MAGNILOQUENT DR. COX
AND DEPUTATION FROM THE MANCHESTER
CONFERENCE.

GENTLEMEN,—Run, gentlemen, run quickly, or the gods
01 your worship, who insulted our most gracious Queen, by
introducing Dr. Owen, of infamous celebrity, to her, will not
have it in their power to insult her afresh, by introducing a
deputation of such an imbecile and heterogeneous class as
Your conference at Manchester has presented to the scorn
and derision of an enlightened public. You have swallowed
derision ; you have EVADED ARGUMENT; you have devoured
(if not widows' houses) at least as far as your brazen impu-
dence would carry you. But think not your brazen effron-
tery will carry you through. I will stick to you like a burr;
and I now propose to meet you in London, at Exeter Hall,
and prove the following :--
lit, That your proceedings were mendacious.
2dly, That they were incompatible with God or man's ho-
nour.

3dly, That the Conference acted as an agent of Satan.
if there is in your whole body one iota of honour, I shall
receive an answer to this. If not, " I shall not consign you
to the tomb of alt the Capulets, but, through the press, en-
deavour to show forth your apostacy, insignificance, and
baseness. I am, gentle:nen, your Christian master,
B. W. TRACY, Lieut. R.N.
