LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, DE6. 31.

Since the above account, f Friday, we have received a moderate
quantity of English and Irish Wheat, and a fair supply of Foreign,
with a large accumulation of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland ; but
of Harley and other Grain as well as Flour, the arrivals are incon.
siderable.

At this day's market, good old Wheat met a rather improved, but
by no means a lively demand, the operations being chiefly confined
to moderate sales to country buyers and for Ireland ; our home
millers at the same time continuing to purchase very sparingly, at
the current rates of this day se'nnight.—All kinds of free Flour
were in limited request at former prices : of American in bond,
however, some further sales have been made for holding over at 31s
per barrel ; but, 31s 6d to 32s being now asked, serves to check the
demand, the buyers refusing to comply with the advance required.
In Barley, Malt and Pease, we have no change to note.—Old
Beans remain steady, but new, moving off slowly, are Is per quarter
cheaper.—The superabinidiint supply of Oats and Oatmeal, being
met by a very dull and tedious sale, the former article was offered
with little effect at a decline of Id per 451 b, and the latter Is per
2401 b below the rates of this day week, our quotations are therefore
reduced accordingly.

INQUESTS.

(Before PHILIP FINCH CURRY, Esq. coroner.)
DEATH FROM BURNING.

On Wednesday last an inquest was held on view of the
body of Catharine Jump. The deceased, who was the wife
of a ship-keeper, was 60 years old, and lived in Banastre-
street. On the evening of the 31st October, while the
deceased was sewing, her shawl caught fire at the candle, and
her clothes were soon afterwards in a blaze. She ran out
into the street, and two female neighbours going to her assis-
tance, laid her in the channel, and extinguished the flames.
She was much burnt over her back and her breast. They
bathed her with linseed oil. She was afterwards attended
by Mr. Thomas, surgeon, who prescribed the usual reme-
dies ;. but typhus fever supervened, and 'the deceased died
from exhaustion, on Monday last. Verdict—" Death from

ctirrent year, caused a ruinous decifne in
prices, in spite of
which the complaints of want of demand were loud and ge-
neral. The demand, however, must have been small only
when, compared with the magnitude of the stocks, for, ac-
s ording- to, " Burn's Commercial Glance," it appears that
altbbugh - the export of twist was less for the first nine
mcniais by about one-seventh, that of all descriptions of
gootlx, with but a• few unimportant exceptions, was consider-
abl' grater than during the corresponding period in the year
before, whilst the home-trade is considered to have been
tolerably satisfactory, notwithstanding the high price of
bread. But the prospects have already begun to brighten ;
the old stocks are cleared off ; the demand has become more
regular and steadV, and what with the 'advance in yarn and
r
the fall in cotton, spinning is no IoW conducted at a loss.
The -position' of fhe in-Tin-ter-has pOt been.. less unfortunate.

entire import from the United
arrivals if the new crop; the
States has either been sold; Or is still held at a loss of pro
:ably not less than froni to .t 5 a bale. Such have been
.V
the baneful effects of g system of paper-money upon the
mercantile and manufacturing industry of this country—hut
the evil has worked-R4 Own cure ; the decline of credit which
has rendered a large class of American securities valueless as
a medium of exchange, has wrested from the banks of the
union the power of dictating the terms upon which the ma-
nufacturers-of Great Britain shall be supplied with an article
of the first necessity. The dealings between the two coun-
tries must henceforth be carried on upon the sound commer-
cial: principle of mutual benefit. The time is auspicious for
the change, for by the concurrent testimony of all parties the
cropis inost abundant, being estimated by some as high as
1,750,000 .bales, and by none lower than 1,650,000 bales.
Prices•have opened low on the other side, and it is greatly to
be desired that they should rule proportionately low on this.
A pirinanently cheap and plentiful supply of the raw mate-
riat,is the ore thing needful for infusing new life into every
branch of the cotton manufacture; it will create new uses,
discover new markets, and give an impulse to the extension
of this, the most important of all the departments of na-
tional industry, to which no man can prescribe limits ; and,
if one•of the conditions of these advantages should be a low
rate of profit to the merchant and the manufacturer, they
muit.look for a compensation in the increase of their busi-
ness,-::and, above all, in the exemption from risks which are
inseparable from high prices and fluctuating markets.

A COUPLE. OF ORIGINALS.

A singular-looking fernale,'7aged -abmit fifty-nine, very
shabbily but very formally -dressed; complained_ against a
feeble old man aged perhaps about seventy, that he had
assaulted her. !The lady, a very cadaverous, pinch-faced old
dame, was called Miss Mayor, from which designation we
gathered that she is an aged spinster. The defendant, who.
was bent so that-his back was very nearly in parallelism with
his feet, called himslf Mister -Michael Byron). Both were
natives. of Hibernia whose brogue dropped rich and melli-
fluent as Milesiun honey from their tongues.
The stiff-necked maiden stated, that being Chris-auras
time, she was indulging at geem of caruds, (cards), when the
ould gintleman came, in the most inhuman, brutal, and abo-
minable manner, an' striek her a tremendous blow on her
head.

The poor querulous old gentleman, who did not appear as
if he had anything tremendous left about him, save his tongue,
scarcely had patience to hear the. complaint to a conclusion,
ere he broke in with his defence, which, in fact, amounted to.
a charge of felony at least.
Plase your worship, said he, thim saam carads that she
snakes of were mine. She came to my house, and she took
dim away. Och now, Miss Mayor, you know well dhat you
are an old gambler, you are dhat same now, you always was,
and you always will- be, for it isn't in dhe nature of you to
lave it off. Here the defendant coughed loudly, by way of
recovering his breath. Before the astonished maiden could
rally to. the attack, however,he, was off again. Savin -yer
prisince, and all dhe honerable company dhat are 'around me,
she tould me dhat I might---(we.cannot follow the old gen-
tleman.) The shocked spinster lifted up her hands and eyes
in speechless astonishment. Presently, however, she reco-
vered her powers-of utterance.
Is it you, you old tory, she said.
The old gentleman again interrupted her. Yes, that's just
what she called me. You mild tory and rascal, said .she.,
said I want my carads you'old gambler--but, look you, gen-
tlemen, mark me ! 1 never struck her, and she owes me-ten
shillings. • •
Complainant : Well-, if -he'll swear that, • I'll pay him on
the spot.
Defendant : Och ! don't listen to one word she says. She's
the wickedest woman between here and London.

Mr. Rushton dismissed the case, as beyond his powers of
discrimination to rectify or coniprehend..
The belligerents retired from Ole court, 'Calling each other.
'all manner Of evil names in a peculiarly quiet way, though
the old gentleman seemed now to have the advantage of his
opponent in coolness.

John Brown and Edward ' Pierey two young men, were
charged with.having,been found on board of a vessel, and
attempting to break into the cabin. The ease was proved,
and as it appeared Brown had once before been imprisoned
for stealing .from a cabin, and had been transported for
another offence ; and that Pierey was also .an old ceender ;
they were sent to the House of Correction for three months.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER.—AIthough there was, as might be expected
from the season, but little demand, yesterday, the market
was decidedly firm and elastic ; and all description's, both of
goods and yarn, were firmly held for the full prices of last
week, or, in some cases, for an advance ; and very little in-
clination was shewn to make contracts for future delivery,
which were rather freely offered by the buyers.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, :MONDAY, DEC. 30.
There has been little or nothing done in the market to-day
in any description of goods. Of the last three markets this
has been decidedly the worst ? and those,who have been
obliged to sell have also been obliged to take such prices as
were offered. The wool market has been as usual, dull and.
heavy, with no variation in the prices that is quotable. Work
is daily becoming more scarce, though upon the whole Roch-
dale is in a better situation than many of the neighbouring
towns. The greatest distress experienced amongst all kinds
of traders is that of the publicans ;. and almost the whole of
this, the publicans themselves attribute to the railway !
HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, DEC. 31, 1839.—At this season

But we rejoice to report, that the aspect of trade is
brightening, that symptoms of returning confidence are ap-
parent from the numerous inquiries, the firmness of the
uarket, and the spirits of the manufacturers. It is true that
few goods were sold; but the demand was greater, orders
begin to creep in, and a general feeling obtains that a short
time will witness a decided improvement. But for the failure
would au.t_irrn at Leeds, scarcely a bankruptcy of any moment
have as yet taken place in this district, which is a stri-
king proof that, for some years past, business has been done
on a firmer basis than formerly.—lllanchester Guardian.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JAN. 2,

There has been a fair business done to-day at rather higher
prices—the sales are 5000 bales, 200 Pernam gid to gad, 30 Bahia

The total import during the last year amounts to 1,016,401 bales :
the sales during the same period 1,097,330 hales, of which the trade
have taken 980,000 bales, the remainder for speculation and export ;
xnd the stock on hand in this port 20i,042 bales, against 248,340
bales held at the same time 1838.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JAN. 2.
The continued unseasonable and severe weather which for such
a length of time we have experienced, has had an important effect
on the Butter market, since our last. All the finer descriptions, on
sale, have been taken by one or two influential Country houses at
very full prices; and middling sorts are a free sale at an advance of
3s to 4s per cwt. In Provisions and Bacon we cannot note any
alteration.

that this ELIXIR
is now, for the very first time, introduced to the notice of the
Lon vivants of the ttorthern parts of this great Kingdom for
their judgment.
It would be quite in vain to enter into any detail of its
excellencies, yet, thus far may be vouched, that it is composed
of the best materials, without any adulteration, and, in
flavour, possesses the combined sweetness of the Grape, the
fragrance of the Lime, with the exhiliration of Champagne ;
and while

THE LORDS OF THE CREATION
will find it an excellent addenda to the Dinner Table,
THE GENTLER SEX
may not disdain to sip, the more so as
ROYALTY
has acknowledged its transcendent merit.
It has been intimated that it will prevent

but of that we will not vouch, never having crossed the
" briny deep" with it in our possession; but should not Pro-
prietors of
PACKET-SHIPS AND STEAMERS

take the hint ? And although it may not produce that " con-
summation devoutly to be wished," yet, sure we are, its
grateful properties are such as will be found to be an excellent
restorative to the palates and stomachs of those who suffer
from the effects of a sea voyage. It will keep in any climate,
and possesses that sure criterion of genuine excellence,
improves by age.
LE GRAND GOURMAND _ .

will find it a most social companion to his Calepash and
Calepee, and the temperate man, while he masticates his

incomparable Liqueur.
" Come and try,
Don't like—don't buy,"
is an old saying and a good one ; and as in matters of taste
every man is the best judge, this invitation is given in the full
assurance that, if the Milk Punch only finds its way to the
palate, it will quickly be acknowledged to stand A 1 amongst
the list of those good things which cheer the heart of mankind.

THE TOILET.

ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, a Vegetable Produc-
tion, is universally admired, and acknowledged to be the
best and cheapest article for nourishing the Hair ; prevents
it from falling off or turning grey, changes grey hair to its
original colour, produces and restores Hair, (even at a late
period of life,) frees it from Scurf, and renders the most
harsh and dry hair as soft as Silk, Curly, and Glossy; pre-
serves it in Curl and other decorative formation--unimpaired
by the Summer's heat, violent exercise, or relaxing tendencies
of the Ball .Room, Scc. To CHILDREN it is invaluable, as
it lays a foundation for a Beautiful Head of Hair.
CAUTION.—Ask for " Rowland's Macassar Oil," and ob-
serve their Name and Address, in Red, on the wrapper, thus,

BRITANNIA.

(From the Britannia.)
Be glorious ! thou Queen of the Ocean. Oh, ne'er
May the rose on thy helmet of silver be pale,
Nor faint be the arm that uplifts thy bright spear,
Nor thy banner be rent on the field or the gale.
For ne'er was that banner to,Europe unroll'd,
But for nature insulted, or freedom betray'd ;
And ne'er to the battle it sumition'd the bold,
But to throw round the injured the pride of its shade.
Rejoice, thou lone mourner=rejoice, thou pale slave,
When the light of her spear flashes broad on thine eye !
'Tis a star on the tempest, a beam on the wave,
To tell thee the morn of thy freedom is nigh.
On rushes her host, swift, resistless, and grand,
Like a thunder-cloud rolled on the wings of the wind,
To wither the guilty, to chasten the land,
But leave, like its shower, a rich blessing behind.
Like the spirit of vengeance the Russian beheld
The sweep of that flag on his dungeon.crown'd shore ;
The grasp of the robber of Poland was quelled,
The Ottoman rose from the field of his gore.
Then France struck her fangs in the world like a fiend,
And tore its pale kingdoms with stings like her own ;
But thy flag, glorious England, was raised for mankind,
And thy cannon proclaimed, " Live again," and 'twas done.
But now all is darkness, all slumber and shame!
And France is the threatener, and Russia the foe ;
The Lion whose roar shook the nations is tame,
The star that once flashed on the tempest is low.
When menials are masters, and sufferance is .sway,
When the slaves of the slaves of the priest rule the age,
Build the tomb, 'tis the place for a nation's decay !
Blot, History, blot the dark hour from thy page !
Still, Britain, thy daughters are fair as the smile
That crimsons. the West on thy sweet summer shore,
And stern and majestic thy sons, thou proud isle,
As the billow that swells to thy winter's wild roar.
Then, Island of Beauty, then, Queen of the Wave,
Think, think of thy fame, he thy standard unfurl'd,
Send to triumph the warriors who triumph to save,
And be England once more sword and shield of the world,
HAVALL.

Church Pastoral Aid Society.

This Society has especial claims upon the town of Liver-
pool, as it is the means of providing many additional curates
and scripture readers, at an annual expense of £590, while
the returns from the town for the past year were but £ll7.
Surely Liverpool should, as an auxiliary, return more than
she receives.
The three following societies are especially devoted to the
benefit of the seamen, and of those engaged in navigation
on the canals, and therefore deserve the cordial support of
alt who are connected with the shipping and commerce of
this port.
The Mariner's Church

Has now been established, under the patronage of the Bishop
of the Diocese, for more than twelve years ; and, as far as its
means will allow, is carrying out the objects of the institution
with increasing benefit. But their exertions are limited, for
want of further support, and owing to the necessary repairs
of the church, which have been lately effected, the Society is
still involved in debt. It is, therefore, confidently hoped
that the public will assist in liquidating this, and by increased
subscriptions enable the committee to enlarge their sphere of
usefulness, by opening schools for the children of seamen and
flatmen.
The Naval and Military Bible Society,
and Prayer Book and Homily Society,
Are also in great need of assistance. Their object is to visit
the shipping, by means of an agent who is employed for that
purpose, and to supply the mews with prayer-books and
homilies, and copies of the Scriptures, at reduced prices ;
and, by a law of the Parent Naval and Military Bible Society,
it is their wish to place on board every ship, flat, and steam-
boat, which leaves the port, a gratuitous supply of the Scrip-
tures, for the use of the crew (in proportion to the number of
the men), where there are no means of selling them. I trust
that the claims of these Societies will meet with a willing re-
sponse from all who are interested in the well-being of the
seamen, as their funds are totally inadequate to carry out
this desirable object without involving the parent society in a
considerable loss.

Trinitarian Bible Society.
The peculiar object of the Trinitarian Bible Society is to
publish faithful Protestant Versions of the Holy Scriptures,
in the Portuguese, Spanish, and German languages, in the
translation of which they are already engaged : and it will be
the particular design of the Liverpool Auxiliary, in addition
to the ordinary modes of circulating the Word of God, to em-
ploy an intelligent pious person, as an agent, to visit the abodes
of the poor and igubrant, whom there is no other means of
reaching, for the purpose of inducing them to take an inte-
rest in the Holy Scripture, and to become purchasers by
weekly or monthly subscriptions.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-01-03

Jewish Institution.

The object of this Institution is to provide a temporary
asylum for enquiring and converted Jews, and after eighteen
months' experience, it has amply answered the benevolent
intentions of the promoters.
While the inquirer can obtain relief for a time, where he
may be protected against the persecutions of his brethren,
the mode of living is so plain as not to offer an inducement to
false or insincere professions. Much good is being done;
but the funds are so inadequate, that unless friends COUjC
forward more liberally with their means, the whole institu•
Lion must be given up.
Irish Sunday School Society,

To promote the establishment and facilitate theconducting
of Sunday schools in Ireland, by
disseminating the most
approved principles for the management of sucho t _ schools, by
supplying them with spelling-books, and copies ti!e Sacred
Scriptures, or extracts, without note or comment, either gra-
tuitously or at reduced prices.
Society for Promoting Christianity
amongst the Jews.
The name of this Society sufficiently explains its object.
It is to lead the lost sheep of the house of Israel to that Sa-
viour whom they crucified.
Christians are under a heavy obligation to the Jews, for it
was by them that the. Sacred Volume was preserved, and to
them they stand indebted for Christianity itself. But they
should feel interested on their behalf, not only for the blessings
of the past, but on account of the glory that is in store for
the world when the Jews shall be restored to their own land.
There are 50 Agents in connection with the Society, and of
these, eight church clergymen and twenty-three missionaries
arc converted Jews.
The Society has the strongest claims upon all Christians.
Achill Mission.
Dingle Mission.
Th( 'hole

Ae whole income of all the above Societies together, in
the wealthy and important town of Liverpool, with a popula-
tion of above 200,000 persons, amounts to little more than
£3OOO. Surely there are 20,000 persons in the town (a
tenth of the population), who could afford ss. per annum
to the whole of the above Societies together, and this
would produce X5OOO. Or, are there not ten congre-
gations, from each of which 500 persona could be found
willing to subscribe 2s. 6d. per annum to any of the
above of which they approve ; and this alone would
produce £5OOO. Let every one do something, be it ever so
small, and the funds of all will shew a vast increase at the
end of 1840, when, God willing, I hope again to lay the finan-
cial state of the various Societies before the public. In the
mean time, I shall be most happy to give every information
in my power respecting the operations and general effi,
ciency of all the above associations.
Collecting Boxes and Cards may be had by any one who
will kindly take charge of them. J. C.
