attest on application ; and am, Sir, most gratefully yours,

NOTICES TO COktItESPOIDETS.

,correspondent who signs C.A.P. enquires whether, if a person
leaves his seat temporarily in the Pit of the Theatre, he can
demand to have it given '24) tO him on his-return. We say no,
lie cannot do this in the Pit ; and we saw an instance a few
evenings ago, where a party was retused to have his seat so
restored to him in the Boxes of the Liver Theatre.

Aliereury never borrows—oh, no Ha borrowed, neverthe-
less, in his last, without acknowledgment, a leading
paragraph from the Lit eqmal Times, upon the subject of the
condemned criminals at Kirkdale. We could point ou

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JAN. 8.
An appearance of severe weather a day or two after the pub-
lication of our last circular, added to accounts of advanced rates •
;n the Irish markets, caused a temporary, firmness in the Butter
trade here. The atmosphere has, however,. become \strangely
mild, for the season of the year, and the market has agar be-
come perfectly mesmerised,. We may mention that fine fresh
Parcels of Butter are scarce,.and for such•the. price is supported;
but for midd ing sorts, (with which we are completely inun- •
daterl,) it is difficult to give a nuotation. Under such circum-
stances, therefore, we deem it safe to call the prices from 7ss to
625. per cwt. for the finest Kilkenny:, &c., down to indifferent,
Newry. Pickled Butter is, yet at 6: s. to 675. per cwt. for ,
seconds. Prime Beef as last noted. Pork is rather iooking up.
and Bacon is more thought of. Foreign provisions (except the
very-best Beef, not much enquired after:

WATCH COMMITTEE.

The proceedings of the Weed, Lighting, Cleansing, and
Fire-police Committees, comprising a recommendation to
the council to lay a warehouse fire-police rate of twopence
in the pound for the year 1814, ant the laving of a watch
rate upon the parish of Liverpool, the townships of Kirk-
dale and Everton, and those parts of the township of West
Derby and the estra-parochial place of Toxteth-park
whicii are within the borough, were read and confirmed.
It appeared from those proceedings that an application
had been made by Mr. Commissioner Dowling, to be
placed upon the same footing, and with the same powers
as Mr Whitty, the head-constable, and that the commit-
tee stated, after having heard evidence upon the subject,
that the application could not be complied with. A letter
from Messrs. Brancker and Co., acknowledging the ser-
vices of the Mayor, Mr. Whirty, and others, at the late
fire, was inserted upon the minutes. _ _

Upon the motion of Mr. Blackburn, the Council ad-
journed at ten minutes atter three o'clock, to the following
day.

THURSDAY.
The attendance of members at the commencement o
the proceedings was not numerous.

DOCK COMMITTEE.

The MAYOR intia,at,d that all new matter relating to
the cocks would be read at the special meeting to be called
some time this month, and the proceedings under the old
acts were read and confirmed. _

...
Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE expressed regret at the loss sus-
tained by the Dock Committe in the resignation of Mr.
C. Horsfall, than whom a more valuable member never
entered the room.

than usual has been sown with Wheat, and the plant upon
the ground is upiforrnly reported to exhibit a healthy

frost and snow, giving a timely check to premature growth

Hood's Magazine.

No. I. of this work—an agreeable comic miscellany—
(as may be expected from the name,) has reached us. and
has afforded us much amusement. There is an a,,reeable
comminglement of prose and verse, and though " the
grave" occasionally appears, it serves in contrast hut to
set off " the gay" to better advantage. The first piece—
" The Haunted House,"--a short metric,' romance, is
well conceived and talentedly wr ught up.
" For over all there hung a cloud of fear,
A sense of mystery the spirit daunted,
And said, as plain as whisper in the ear,
The place is haunted!"
This is illustrated by a beautiful vignette in the best line
of engraving, representing "The Haunted Morse" and
the scenery around it. "The Reminiscences of Bayonne"
is a graphic and interesting sketch of that locality, and
its manners and customs. One of the most amusing
pieces in the book is entitled " Great Tom of Oxford."
and details some extraordinary adventures of a young stu-
dent on his first entering the University. " Mrs. Bur-
rage," a temperance romance is also well told and ex-
tremely ludicrous. " Life in the Sick Room," (a review)
is of a serious curb, and replete with affecting narrative.
"A Christmas Carol," in prose, by C. Dickens, is lively
and entertaining, exhibiting much of the original humour,
as well as of the kindly feeling of the author. " A Prac-
tical Joke" is droll enough as it proceeds, but beyond a
joke in its termination. One of the articles " A Dream
by the Fire" is well told, as is a satirical essay entitled
"An Irish Rebellion." The poetry is generally too long
for quotation, but (referring to an extract in prose from
the present number in another column,) we give the fol-
lowing

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUG. 30.

The demand up to this morning was good and tegrilar
throughout the week, awl the market consequently assumed
a steadier position, recovering in a great degree the depression
we noticed last week—the quotations for lair qualities of Up-
land,,New Orleans, and Mobile being advanced per lb. We do
not think there is this advance on all qu lilies, particularly to-
day, but very extreme rates were current up to the close of last
night. There is no change in Surat or Brazil. and Egyptians
are without improvement. The public sale of Sea Island has
goneoff very flatly, and out of 113 i bags white, only 110 were
sold at 13d to Prid ; c. 55 stained were also tiered, but only 170
changed hands at 4d to 7d. These prices show a decline upon
previous rates of id per lb. 590 American and 15 ,a Surat have
been Aker' on speculation this week ; and for ex:mrt 4953 Ame
rican,ls, Egyptian, Coo Pernarn. and 1.0 Surat. 4910 bales of
American and 163 Pernams were forwarded into the country
this rronth tinsi'd. The marke is heavy to-day, and the sales
are shout 59,0 bales of all kinds. Th packet account of the
15th instant is con ilezed favour able for the growing crop in the
states'

The import this week is 9,793 bags, And the sales reach
33,770 bags.

TAYLOR V. HODGES.

In this case, James Taylor was the plaintiff, and George
Washington Hodges the defendant. Mr. Baines and
Mr. Hall appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Martha and
Mr. Hoggins for the defendant. The plaintiff was a
danket manufacturer at Batley, in Yorkshire : tbe de-
endant was a commission agent in Manchester; and the
action was brought against the defendant in order to
Atain from him compensation in damages for a breach of
'laity imputed to him in the declaration. The plaintiff
'tad consigned to the defendant a certain number of
'dankets to be sold by commission in America. He gave
'nstructions that they were not be sold below the invoice
price, but alleged that the plaintiff had sold them at a
mat sacrifice. The case opened with several intricate
..oints, and after some conversafon among the counsel
both sides, it was agreed to rt fer matters in dispute to
a g ntleman of the bar.
