LIVERPOOL COTTON _ MARKET, FEB. 27.

The inquiry for Cotton to-day has been pore exten-
sive, and several speculators are operating, so that we
cannot correctly get at the amount of business done; at
present we may safely write upon 4,000 bales, at very
full prices, fully one-half of it on speculation.

COTTON MARKEP.,-WEEKLY REPORT.
The demand for Cotton, which was limited last week, has con-
siderably revived, and a steady business has been done daily, at
full prices for all descriptions. Speculators have taken 800
American and 150 Surat. There have been forwarded into the
country during the last two months 2860 American, 7o Bahia,
160 Egyptian and 150: urat.

COTTON MARKET.—March 4.

Throughout the whole of last week our market has been ex-
cessively stupid and quiet, and the arrival of unfavourable in-
telligence (as far as Cotton goes from the States, seems to have
no effect upon it; indeed to-day there is a tamer spirit than
usual, and only 2500 bales have teen sold, at prices favouring
the buyer, and we close without the slightest animation.

registered, 15,839 were illegitimate ; so 1 in 16 of the
children born in England is not born in wedlock. In
England f 4 to 1000 children are born illegitimate. The
proportion in France is 71 in 1003. Of the legitimate
births the boys are to the girls as 105.4 to 100.0; of ille-
gitimate births the boys are 108.0 to 100.0.

MANCHESTER CORN' EXCHANGE, MARCH 2.
The trade during the week has been of much the same cha.
racter as was described by our last report. little inclination
being shown for business by purchasers. with as litt e on the
part of holders to submit to more than a trifling reduction on
particular qualities of each article.
Prices in the agricultural districts of the United Kingdom are
still out of proportion high, as compared with those of the con-
suming markets ; nor does it appear probable that sufficient
supply will he brought forward by farmers at anything less than
present rates, their inclination evidently being to try for au ad-
vance.
The list of imports exhibit a fair supply of Irish Flour and
Oatmeal, and moderate of other articles. The Wakefield arri-
vals are moderate.
At Liverpool, yesterday, there was a flat market, though
without any very mark d reduction, whilst at Wakefield a good
business was done, Wheat bringing an advance of is per quar-
ter, and other articles fully maintaining their previous value.
Though we have no briskness in the trade here to.day, we
consider the market, as regards Wheat and Flour, somewhat
firmer, and there is more inclination to do business at the prices
of this day week.
Oats and Oatmeal flat, and inclining downwards. Malt and
Beans steady, at late prices. Other articles without variation.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY.

Lord JOHN MANNERS moved an address to the crown,
Praying her majesty's interuosition to procure the deli-
verance of Don Carlos mai his family from their deten-
tion by France.
Sir R. Peei, opposed the motion, and after a long de-
bate it was withdrawn.
Captain BERNAL moved for a copy of an address to the
Lord Lieutenant of Ireland from the Dublin Protestant
Operative Assooiation, and of the Lord-Lieutenant's an.
Brier.
Lord ELIOT thought it highly inexpedient to give im-
portance to such an address by placing it on the records
of this House. . . _

Mr. T. DoNcomng urged Captain Bernal to persevere
by dividing the House.
A division accordingly took place, when the numbers

THE COURSE OF INSTRUCTION.

Believing that at the present time parents are desirous
their children should receive a more truly intellectual and
religious education than has hitherto been given them,
,he Principal has determined to adopt such a plan of in-
struction, as, while it will admit of boys rising to the
highest distinction in Classical and Mathematical attain-
ments, will at the same time include an extended course
of Scriptural knowledge and general information. All
will be so far instructed in the Classics and Mathematics,
as to fit them for any profession requiring a sound and
gentlemanly education; while those whose career can be
determined upon will at a certain age be draughted off
into Classes for Special Instruction, having a ditect re-
ference to their future pursuits. For example—
UNIVERSITY CLASS.—Latin and Greek, Mathe-
matics, The Christian Evidences, Bible History, Oratory,
Logic.
NAUTICAL CLASS.—Navigation, Mapping, Hydro-
graphv. Nauticial Astronomy, French, German.
MEDICAL CLASS.—Latin and Greek, (Celsus,
Gregory, and the London Pharmacopoeia,) French, Che-
mistry, Medical Botany.

CENTRATED SODA WATER.

'IMES elegantly finished preparation of concentrated
A SODA WATER. is introduced to the notice of the
Nobility, Gentry, Commercial Gentlemen, and Public
generally, under the most illustrious patronage and
recommendation being the Purest and most delightful
beverage ever offered ; manufactuied in apparatus of
greatly improved construction, highly impregnated with
r teat "Air, or C_MFIJUMU AL:IU etas, auu livlUlug the 3alt tU
solution under the greatest possible pressure. In addition
to the gratifying patronage of Royalty, it has already ob-
tained the most flattering testimonials of the first Nobility,
Gentry, and Pneumatic Chemists of the present age, and
is confidently recommended as very far superior to any
that is made. Owing to the almost incredible metre of
fixed air, which it contains in such extraordinary perfec-
tion, when drank in the summer months in the proportion
of a wine glassful of old Hock, Sherry, Orange, Lemon.
or Ginger Wine to a bottle, it forms a peculiarly delicious
and refreshing draught, and retains its acidulous properties
long after opening. Well does the Poet exclaim
" Ring for your valet, bid him quickly bring
Some Hock and Soda Water, then you'll know

A pleasure worthy Xerxes, the great King;
For not the best Sherbet sublimed with snow,
Not the first sparkle of the desert spring,
Nor Burgundy in all its sunset glow,
Can vie with draughts of HOCK and SODA WATER."

Prepared by R. ELLIS, Ruthin, where any quantity
may be had on the shortest notice.
Sold also by all the respectable Chemists and Italian
Warehouses in Liverpool.

BIRTHS, DEATHS, AND MARRIAGES

The fifth annual report of the Registrar-General of
Alarria!res, in England, (lately issued
trom. ;.so•nerset !loose.) embraces a Loge mass of deeply-
'-a4:l important matter•
abd deal hs, in the years 1839,
18411, :lan were as iollows ;
MIL

•
Deal. s
The riarri•i4es in 1841 were 1 in-130; births, 1 in 31 ;
deaths, 1 in 46 of the population ; the average of the two
preceding years having here, of marriages, 1 in 127 ;
births, lin 31; deaths, lin 45. Thus in 1811, 769 mar-
riages, 3,217 births, and 2,160 deaths, were registered to
every 100,000 of the: population. The marriages have
diminished slightly in number every year. The falling
off was chiefly in the metropolis, in Cheshire, Lancashire,
Yorkshire, and the western division of the kiugdom.
There was a remarkable decrease in Monmouthshire.
The fluctuation is coincident with the depression or pros-
perity of industry or trade in various parts of the country.
The greatest number of marriages took place in autumn,
and the smallest in winter. The report contains an ab-
stract of the number of widows and widowers re-married
in the last half-year of 1841. It appears of 65,498 women
married, 5,888, or 9 in 100, were widows ; of the same
number of men, 8,476, or 13 in 100, were widowers.
During the years 1839, 1840, and 1841, the average an-
nual
number of marriages was 122,777, so that 106,957
men, and 111,765 women, or 218,740 persons, marry
every year.
One in every 72 males, and 1 in 72 females, are mar-
ried annually in England. The proportion of re-mar-
riages is greatest in the metropolis, and in the northern,
western, and York divisions, where the mortality is high-
est, and where families are therefore most frequently
broken up by the death of the husband or wife. Under
the age of 21, 5,362 men, and 16,285 women, were mar-
ried. This is a startling discrepancy. 33 in 100 men,
and 49 in 100 women, married in 1841, signed the regis-
ters with their marks. Of the 122,496 marriages in 1841,
114,371 took place in conformity with the rites of the
Established Church ; 13 by special license ; 972 by super-
intendent-registrar's certificate. By bans, 94,298 were
married; by licens,-, 19.088. Of the 8,125 marriages not
performed in the Established Church, 5,882 were in re-
gistered places of worship, 2,064 in superintendent-regis-
trars' offices, 66 between Quakers, and 113 between Jews.
During 1841, 151 additional buildings have been registered
for the 6blditifisatoti Virmarttagea. •

TO THE INHABITANTS OF LIVERPOOL,
THE NOBILITY,
CLERGY, GENTRY, AND FAMILIES

TFIROUGHOUt THE
NORTH OF ENGLAND AND WALES.
WE have now been in operation Two Years, arid the
result already achieved in so short a period proves,
more than anything else can do the truth of our state-
ments. The enlarged and increasing patronage we have
received at both our Establishments enable us very ma-
terially to add to the advantages previously offered. Our
system, we repeat, is, first, to sell a good article, and,
secondly, to sell it cheap, FOR READY MONEY.
Mere cheapness alone, unless accompanied with quality,
is only deception, and our success mainly depended upon
keeping this point in view.
Within the last few weeks a limited portion of the new
Season's Teas have arrived both here and in London,
from which we have made selections, and, judging from
the present arrivals, the quality surpasses the average of
former years. Our advices from China intimate large
shipments of superior and useful qualities to arrive in the
English markets, which will become available within a
short period • consequently, we are justified in anticipating
the means of! supplying our supporters with quality quite
equal, if not superior, to any we have done since our
commencement.
Our present Prices range thus for sound qualities :

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, FLB. 27.

,
The inquiry for Cotton to-day has been more exten-
sive, and several speculators are operating, so that we
cannot correctly get at the amount of business done; at
present we may safely write upon 4,000 bales, at very
full prices, fully one-half of it on speculation.

131RTEIS, DEATHS, AND MAIMIAGES.

, The fifth annual report of the Registrar.Cleneral of
Bi,th., Deaths, and Marriages, in England, (lately issued
Irani Somerset House.) vmhrm.es a large mas of deeply-
interesting and important molter.
The mat riages, births, nod deaths, in the years 1839.
1840, and 1811, a ere as follows:-
1839. 1849. IR 1.
Marriages .... 123.165 - 122.665 122.4913
Births ... 492.574 5U2 393 512.158
Deaths ........ 338,979 359.6.34 343,847
The marriages in 1841 were 1 in 130; births, 1 in 31 ;
deaths, 1 in 46 of the population ; the average of the two
preceding years having been, of marriages, 1 in 127;
births, lin3l ; deaths, lin 45. Thus in 1811, 769 mar-
riages, 3,217 births, and 2,160 deaths. were registered to
every 100,000 of the population. The marriages have
diminished slightly in number every year. The falling
off was chiefly in the metropolis, in Cheshire, Lancashire,
Yorkshire, and the western division of the kingdom.
There was a remarkable decrease in Monmouthshire.
The fluctuation is coincident with the depression or pros-
perity of industry or trade in various parts of the country.
The greatest number of marriages took place in autumn,
and the smallest in winter. The report contains an ab-
stract of the number of widows and widowers re-married '
in the last 'half-year of 1811. It appears of 65,498 women
married, 5,888, or 9 in 100, were widows ; of the same
number of men, 8,476, or 13 in 100, were widowers.
During the years 1839, 1840, and 1841, the average an-
nual number of marriages was 122,777, so that 106.957
men, and 111,765 women, or 218,740. persons, marry
every year.
One in every 72 males, and 1 in 72 females, are mar-
ried annually in England. The proportion of.re-mar-
riages is greate4t in the metropolis, and in the northern,
western, and York divisions, where the mortality is high-
est, and where families are therefore most frequently
broken up by the death of the husband or wife. Under
the age of 21, 5,362 men, and 16,285 women, were mar-
ried. This is a startling discrepancy. 33 in 100 men,
and 49 in 100 women, married in 1841, signed the regis-
ters with their marks„ Of the 122,496 marriages in 1841,
114,371 took place in conformity with the rites of the
Established Church ; 13. by special license ; 972 by super-
intendent-registrar's certificate. By bans, 94,298 were
married; by licens-, 19,088. Of the 8,125 marriages not
performed in the Established Church, 5,882 were in re-
'
in_saperintendent-regis-
trarsoffices, 66 between Quakers, and 113 between Jews;
During 184"., 151 additional buildings have been registered
for the solemnisation of marriages.

COTTON MARKED.-WEEKLY REPORT.

The demand for Cotton, which was limited last week, has con-
siderably revived, and a steady business has been done daily, at
full prices for all descriptions. Speculators have taken 800
American and 150 Surat. There have been forwarded into the
country during the last two months 2860 American, 7u Bahia,
160 Egyptian and 150 :,urat.

COTTON MARKET.—March 4.

Throughout the whole of last week our market has been ex-
cessively stupid and quiet, and the arrival of unfavourable in-
telligence (as far as Cotton goes from the States, seems to have
no effect upon it; indeed to-day there is a tamer spirit than
usual, and only 2500 bales have teen sold, at prices favouring
the buyer, and we close without the slightest animation.

DEATHS.

The deaths in the year ending December 31, 1841,
amounted to 343,847. Upon comparing the deaths in
1840 and 1841, there will be found a decrease of 16,787.
The deaths were more numerous (99,069) in the winter
of 1841 than in the winter of any preceding year ; but in
the spring the decline commenced, which reduced the
mortality in the following quarters below the mean mor-
tality of the four years. The deaths in the four winter
quarters, viz., those of 1839, 1840, and 1841, were
385,764; in the four summer quarters, 305,333; the
deaths in the four springs, 355,248; in the autumns,
338,662. If the mortality were uniformly at the same
rate as in the winter, 391,059 deaths would happen annu-
ally ; if at the same rate as in summer, 302,827 deaths
would be registered. These exhibit the striking effects of
cold upon mortality; also of the crowding and privations
to which a considerable portion of the population is ne-
cessarily more exposed in cold than in warm weather.
The births and deaths are most numerous in winter, mar-
riages in autumn ; whilst the smaller number of births
and deaths occur in summer, and marriages in winter.
An elaborate tabular statement, we are happy to say,
establishes a decrease of the high rate of mortality which
prevailed in 1839 and 1840 in the manufacturing divisions. •
The marriages and births are most numerous where the
mortality is highest.

THE COURT.

ACCOUCTIEMENT OF HER MAJESTY.—We have the
best authority for announcing that this highly-interesting
event is expected to take place at the latter end of June
or toe early part of July next, and that all the necessary
preparations and arrangements have been made accord-
ingly. The royal yacht will be in readiness for the ma-
rine excursions of her Majesty and the Prince Consort
by the tirst or second week in August.—Britannia.

We are able, says the Time* to state, upon what we
consider pretty correct authority, that there is no truth
in the statement copied from the German press, that
Prince Albert will inherit great wealth from his father.
The estates are all strictly entailed, and will, of course,
devolve upon his royal highness's eldest brother, the
reigning duke.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-03-05

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

The barristers who acted as Commissioners in Bank-
ruptcy, before the passing of the new act, and who were
superseded when it came into operation, have had their
claims for compensation settled. Mr. Leigh Trafford, of
the Chester circuit, receives £4BO.

THE EXCISE.—We have already stated that Mr. More-
ton Carr has been appointed to succeed Mr. Dehany, as
solicitor of excise in England. It is now understood that
the salary of Mr. Carr is fixed at £2,000 a year, by a
reduction of £5OO on the amount hitherto received by
the solicitor of that department. The office of solicitor
of excise in Scotland, with a salary of £1,500 per annum,
which was lately filled by Mr. Carr, will, we hear, be
done away with as a separate appointment, and the esta-
blishment of clerks be, otherwise provided. for. By this
new arrangement £3,000 a-year will be saved to the pub-
lic.—Observer.

LORD W ILLIAM PAGI7.I V. TUN EARL OF CARDIGAN.
—CRIM CON.—On Tuesday morning the Court of Com-
mon Pleas was crowded to excess by persons anxious to
hear this celebrated cause, which, although originally
fixed to come on in the course of the last sittings, passed
off, it will be recollected, from the absence of Winter,
who was stated to be a material witness. During the last
term Mr. Sergeant Channel! applied to the court to enter
a verdict of nonsitit for the defendant, which was refused,
on the grounds that the plaintiff should
give a peremptory
undertaking to go to trial. Sir Thomas Wilde, Mr. Ser-
geant Talfourd, and Mr. Wordsworth conducted the
plaintiff's case; the Solicitor-General, Mr. Sergeant
Channel], and another gentleman appeared for the de-
fence. The damages were laid at £15,000. Sir Thomas
Wilde shortly stated the plaintiff's case, and called wit-
nesses, those examination lasted nearly the entire day.
The Solicitor-General then proceeded to address the jut y
for the defendant, immediately after which the jury re-
turned a verdict for the defendant, which was received
with applause in court.
