STATE OF TRADE

MANcuEsTER.---During the earlier part of last week there
existed a rather better inquiry for several descriptions of goods,
and some of the lower numbers of yarns; which, on some con-
cessions being made by sellers, led to a fair extent of business.
Since Tuesday, however, this inquiry and disposition to do
business have to a considerable extent subsided, and the mar-
ket during the last few days has again been characterised by
extreme stagnation. To-day the complaints were universal as
to the difficulty of effecting sales, even at prices most favour-
able to buyers. Scarcely any inducement

THE GUARDIAN GAS BILL

The Parliamentary committee appointed on these bills
sat during the last week. Mr. Sergeant Wrangham, who
appeared for the promoters, gave a history of the com-
panies from 1834, and their bringing down the price of
the commodity from 15s. per 1000 cubic feet to 4s. 6d.,
to which it was reduced in 1845. A further supply was
required, for which further capital had to be raised, and
he contended that a new company alone could supply it
to suit the means of the poor. The Guardian Company
proposed to do this by means of a capital of £330,000 at
74 per cent. dividend, and at 3s. Bd. per 1000 cubic feet.
He said the clauses of the Act of the Dale-street Company
were exceedingly objectionable. Witnesses were then
called, on that and the following day, including Mr. Reay,
secretary to the Guardian Society, Mr. Macdonald, secre-
tary to the Guardian Gas Company, Mr. Councillor Par-
ker, Mr. Cox, the Company's engineer, and others. On
Thursday Mr. W. Herapath, the chemist and lecturer,
was examined, and instanced places where better gas was
produced than at Liverpool, by Mr. Cox's patent princi-
ple, which was applicable to heating and cooking as well
as lighting purposes. He considered gas at 3s. was suffi-
ciently low in price to admit of gas being universally used
for all household and domestic purposes. There was also
a saving of 25 per cent. in using a material hitherto
thrown away. Mr. S. Glegg deposed to the saving to
artisans by using gas in place of candles, and the superior
light. Mr. Cox has proposed plans to light Liverpool of
which he (witness) entirely approved. The works of the
proposed company were to be on that plan. It would be
desirable that one company should provide the whole of
the gas required for the town. Other witnesses talked of
the advantages of Mr. Cox's plan in melting iron, &c.,
and said the expense of the coal would be covered by the
