In these European markets, then, notwithstand-
ing the disturbed state of the Continent, we have
had an actual increase of our exports. Nor is
this increase balanced by a corresponding decrease
to our other large markets. Thus the exports
of yarn to the Hanse Towns, &c., were, in 1847,
36,123,631 lbs., and in 1848, 32,910,867 lbs.; to
Holland in 1847, 16,206,656 lbs., and in 1848,
18,877,037 lbs. Our exports of plain calicoes
were, in 1847, to Hanse Towns, &c., 13,906,756
yards, and in 1848, 15,267,684 yards ; to Holland,
in 1847, 10,497,015 yards, and in 1848, 12,097,290
yards. Our exports of printed and dyed calicoes
were, in 1847, to Hanse Towns, &c., 23.453,063
yards, and in 1848, 22,319,989 yards; to Holland,

in 1847, 11,120,001 yards, and in 1848, 11,388,438
yards. In order, however, to ascertain the actual
operation of the disturbances on the Continent, as
regards the trade in these staples during the two
years, we give the aggregate shipments to the
whole of Europe, as follows :

1847. 1848.
Yarns to all Europe.. 95.136.174 lbs. 106.622,646 lbs.
Plain calicoes „ 131,219.528yd5. 196,746.948yd5.
Printed and dyed „ 104,430,679 „ 123.403,095 „
The trade to India, during the past year, has
continued unfavourable as compared with previous
years. We have exported of yarn 32,910,8671b5.,
against 36,123,631, in 1847, and 45,041,329, in
1846. There has been, however, a small increase
under the head of plain cottons, the export being
in 1848, 134.222,419 yards, against 114,228,334 in
the preceding year. There is still a falling off of
upwards of 30,000,000 yards as compared with the
average of the three preceding years. There is also
a small increase in the export of printed and dyed
calicoes, which, however, is still largely below the
average of the three years 1844 to 1846. Our ex-
ports to China of the three staples a little exceed
those of last year, but exhibit a great decline as
compared with the three preceding years. To the
British West Indies there has been a small increase
in yarns and plain cottons, as compared with 1847,
but the export is still greatly below that of 1846
and preceding years. In printed and dyed we find
a small decrease; but the falling off is to nearly
one-half of 1845 and 1846. To British North
America there is also a very great diminution under
the heads of plain cottons, and printed and dyed.
It is probable that the results for the whole year
do not afford us a fair criterion by which to judge
of the present activity of the trade and of future
prospects; for there has been an undoubted in-
crease in the operations of the last as compared
with the first half year. Thus we find that the
exports of cotton yarn for the first three months
were 24,595,4g11bs ; second three months,
22,179,322; third three months, 36,873,430; and

The tricks of Robert Houdin are not more astounding

FIRE IN BIRKENHEAD.—On Sunday evening, a fire
occurred at. the shop of Mrs. Carter, milliner and bonnet-
No. 22, Chester street, Woodside, which for some
threatened to be of a serious nature, owing to the
impossibility of procuring water. This is an evil which
the authorities of Birkenhead should immediately look
into, and remedy. Endeavours were made to open
two plugs, but neither of them were in working order, and
it was found impossible to bring either into operation.
Being Sunday, the shop was closed, and considerable delay
occurred before the police could be got to the spot. aftr
which, nearly half an . •

recourse was had to the neighb.uring yards, as the fire
was evidently gaining ground very rapidly. The house

uoor or the shop was forced open, and fortunately suffi-
dent water was brought in buckets to stop the further
progress of the flames, although not until nearly tho
whole of the stock was destroyed or damaged.

from the woodeil Walls of her empire, and alighting upon
some long unvisited portion of its soil ? It is not the
same emotion which would be inspired by the landing of
Wellington. Then the roaring of cannon and the waving
of ensigns would appear to be a tribute rendered to the
hero by a grateful country ; but when her majesty touches
the shore, she seems herself to wake the thunders and to
bow the banners which announce her coming. The pomp
is all her own, and differs from the tributary pageant, as
the nod of Jove is different from the acclamation of Sten-
tor. Even I, who " owe her no subscription," can well
conceive what a true Briton cannot help but feel, when,
with an ennobling loyalty, he beholds in her the concen-
trated blood of famous kings, and the propagated soul of
mighty monarchs ; and when he calls to mind, at the same
moment, the thousand strange events and glorious histo-
ries: which have their august and venerable issue in Vic-
toria, his queen.—Blackwood's Magazine.

ARREST OF AN IRISH MURDERER IN LIVERPOOL.—
On Sunday a man named Cearns Boswell was arrested in
Great Howard-street, in this town, charged with the
murder of the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, at Roscommon, about a
year ago. The rev. gentleman, it may be remembered,
was shot as he was returning home in his carriage from
church.

JENNY LINU IN ORATOILIO.—The musical world have
before them a rich treat in the appearance of this accom-
plished and benevolent songstress on Thursday next, at
the Collegiate Institution, in Mendelsohn's splendid
opera of " Elijah." A few days ago she sustained the
same part in Manchester, and on Thursday last in Bir-
mingham, and in both places the critics speak in rapturous
terms of her excellence, preferring her singing of sacred
music to any of her previous efforts. We can quite be-
lieve the representations made of the fervour and feeling
with which she seemed to pour her whole soul into the
sublime strains of Mendelsohn's sublime work. The fact
is in keeping with her whole character, with the tone of
her mind, and with those deeply implanted feelings of re-
ligion which seem to direct her conduct. We may. with
safety, venture to predict that the performance on Thurs-
day will be the most brilliant in which she has taken part

in Liverpool.
THE WEATHER.—The week ending last night has been,
on the whole, peculiarly fine and agreeable for so early a
period of the spring. We have had two or three down-

bear against popery—though sbe might charm never so
wisely—though she might exhibit all her most favourable
airs and exert her most attractive influence, the people of
this country would not listen to her voice when the still
small voice of the Gospel was heard. (Cheers.) If our
people are well versed and instructed in the Bible, they
had an antidote to all the pestilence of Rome. He had
no fear for the population of this country if the people be
only a Bible-reading, a Bible-loving, and a Bible-living
people. He beseeched them to love and support the
Church Pastoral-Aid Society, for it sent forth none but
faithful ministers,—because it would take care that no
jesuit in disguise should creep in to poison the minds of
the people, but that they shall be men who have signed
the articles not in a non-natural sense, but that they are
plain honest-hearted Protestant Churchmen, who will
preach in accordance with the articles they have sub-
scribed, and the creeds and formulas of the Prayer-
Book. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) If the Church
Pastoral Aid Society were to withdraw the veto, he (Mr,
Stowell) should withdraw from it. (Hear, hear, and
cheers.) He believed it was an uncompromising Pro-
testant society. If it did not stick to that it 'you'd soon
sink.—(Hear, hear.) It was also a political institution
of a most valuable description. They would perhaps
startle at this, seeing it was forbidden ground. He con-
tended, however, that to banish politics from the christian
arena was a fair way to banish God from the land. Chris-
tianity had to do with every class of politicians. It told ,

upon every one whatever party he belonged to in the state.
It did so by bringing the mass of the population to read
the word of God, which would teach them how to act as
ciCzens, as well as Christians. It was in this way, and

only in this way they desired to make our poptilation

porty politics or faction—men who would love Britain as

THE WATER QUESTION.

TO THE EDITOR OP THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SlR,—Permit me once more, and, as I would fain hope, for
the last time, to trespass upon your valuable columns in refer-
ence to Mr. M`Donald's unwarranted statements published in
the Liverpool Mercury of Tuesday last.
Ist.—ln regard to Mr. M'Donald's assertion with respect to
my alleged opportunities of testing the yield of the wells, I re-
peat distinctly that "1 never possessed any opportunity what-
ever of testing the yield of the wells:" and further, that I have
not, indeed, had either occasion or authority to test the yield,
except for the purposes of the arbitration, in which Mr. Ste-
phenson was concerned, in December, 1847, and that then the
Harrington Company, for whom Mr. ArDonald was employed,
defeated any endeavours

I was, however, at that time enabled to make certain OB-
SERVATIONS (despite this obstruction), from which I became
fully satisfied that the yield, at a practical level, did not exceed
1,700,000 gallons per day, plus the injection water, which ougift
not to be supplied to the inhabitants, or, in the whole, about
2,100,000 gallons. _ .

In this minion I have since been completely borne out by the
reoort of Messrs. Kennedy and M`Gregor, whose examination

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE. FEB. 10.

Great caution has characterised the proceedings of buyers
during the past week ; millers fall back upon the stocks of
Wheat, of which all of them held more or less in bond, whi'st
dealers and bakers having supplied themselves for a week or
two, will not follow the advance. This day's market goes off
very flatly : so little is done that we do not alter our previous
quotations for Wheat and Flour; but it may be said that any
improvement gained last week has been lost this. All other
articles support former value pretty firmly; but the business
done in any one is quite of a retail character.

BENJAMIN HIGGS respectfully informs the Public.
that he is daily adding to his STOCK of ELECTRO-
PLATED ARTICLES, being encouraged thereto by the liberal
patronage he has received.
B. H. takes this opportunity of stating that the method of
Electro-Plating is exceedingly simple, a Model Apparatus for
which can be purchased for a few Shillings, and set to work in
a few minutes. It is the subject of one Patent only, and
Licenses may be obtained by any person on paying for it.
Many Manufacturers of Plated Articles in Sheffield, Birming-
ham, and London have availed Themselves of it, and, therefore,
unrestricted competition is the re ulr. From this circum-
stance, B. H. is now enabled to- Sell Electro-Plated Goods at
Prices far below any thing ever before offered, whilst he will
take care they shall be of such quality only as he can with
confidence recommend.

HUDDERSFIELD.—We have bad fully more inquiries for
goods in our market, and the general impression seems to be
that wools are likely to go higher at the sales just commencing.
Certain classes of goods are becoming very scarce, prices hay-
.

ing oeen so low tnat parties nave given up making them.
HALIFAX.—There has been an improved inquiry for fancy
goods in the piece hall this week, and a pretty fair quantity
changed hands, at the late trifling advance. For plain goods
there was not so much demand. Stocks, both plain and figured
goods, are getting low, and better prices may be expected. The
spinners are still fill of orders, and yarns are firmer, with a
slight tendency upwards. The demand for lone wool is steady_

and prices arefirin. There is a little more doing in short wools,

ROCHDALE FLAN NEL MARKET.—The market this week has
been rather better attended than on the two previous market
days. The middle and low qualities and gray goods were in
very good demand. Strong Yorkshire goods and dyed flannels
were good to sell at former prices,and the finest sorts of finished

goods- and particular sorts were' brisk

and prices of last MondaVlaliiiWaijaineil

solute denial of every known and established fact, even after
iterated and vastly expensive proofs have been resorted to,
proofs abundantly capable of satisfying even every honest
sceptic. Take as instances the following principal facts

Pact.—Gross yield, under 4} millions ; net available
yield, little more than 31 millions.
Assertion.—Sandstone stratum inexhaustible.

Fact.—The water lowering every ;;;;;.many wells al-

Assertion.—That the wells now yield as much water as ever
they did.

Fact —That the Windsor well was proved by the Har-
rington Company, when opposing the Green-lane pro-
ject, to afford 800 gallons per minute, hut now yields for
the use of the town only about 500 gallons per minute.
Assertion.—That the water in the Windsor well could net be

Fact.—lt has recently been pumped for weeks toge-
