ANDREW SMITH'S PATENT WIRE ROPE,
FOR STANDING RIGGING, MINES, RAILWAYS,
BRIDGES, &e. &c.

EVERY day's experience proves the vast/dvantage this
Rope has over all others for the above pyrposes, from its
strength, durability, lightness, and great efonomy, the first
cost being about 25 per cent. cheaper t n Hempen Rope.
Among the many practical and influen al Gentlemen who
have certified its superiority and rec mended its adoption
may be mentioned the names of

" City of Dublin Steam-packet Company,
" Office. 24, Water-street, Liverpool, April 2], 1841.
" GENTLEMEN,—In reply to your letter of this morning,
I beg to state, as a proof of my opinion of the Wire Rope
for Standing Rigging, that I have recently put it on board
of this Company's new Steamer the Erin-go-Bragh, and
which I would not have done if I had the slightest doubt of
its superiority over Hemp Cordage. The Standing Rigging
of the Prince, Princess, Queen Victoria, Oriental, and
Great Liverpool, is in the same good condition as when
firstr put on board those Steamers ; and, as regards the two
first-named Vessels, it has not been necessary to set the
find the since they were hauled taut two years since. I
.n wire Rope answers admirably for Ridge Ropes for
and47.lg as it becomes like a bar of iron when well set up,
does not give to the lashings.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JULY 15

We have to report a good arrival of Wheat, but moderate or
other articles, for this day's market—a thin attendance of buyers
with a dull trade. Wheat of home growth difficult to quit at is
and 2s per quarter decline. The few transactions which have
taken place in foreign rather exceed that reduction, and such as is
out of condition totally neglected. Barley, Oats, and Shellings,
same as last week. Beans 6d to Is per quarter cheaper, with a
slow sale.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1842-07-19

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 15.

The demand for Cotton to-day has been very good, and
fully 5000 bales have been sold at full prices.
The sales of the week are again large—say 30,000 bales—
of which speculators have taken 4300 and exporters 2000
bales, leaving a good supply for the trade. Prices are very
firm, and the market thoroughly steady.

LTTERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Juts 15.
Lout this week on foreign Wheat to SI,
Barley, 9s„ Pease, 9s. 6d. per qr., Flour, 4s. 914 d. per barrel,
and increased upon Rye to 10s. 6d. per qr., as well as upon
colonial Rye to Is. 6d. per qr. ; reduced upon colonial Pease
to Is. per qr.
We have upwards of 2000 qrs. of V. from the United
tates, which, with the arrivals from continental ports, make
up 8093 quarters since Tuesday ; the supply of States' Flour
amounts to 5000 barrels, while the general imports fresh in
from all other quarters are exceedingly light.
Influenced by the dull reports this week from Mark-lane,
and the prevalence of exceedingly auspicious weather, the
corn trade here from the close of Tuesday's market up to this
date assumed, on the whole, a rather languid appearance,
but without producing any material effect upon the general
currency of our last circular ; the tendency, however, was
decidedly in favour of the buyers.
At our Corn Exchange this morning, also, the trade has
remained in most respects in an inactive state, sales of
Wheat being with difficulty effected, to a. very mode-
rate extent, at a decline upon general qualities of Id.
to 2d. per bushel from our last quotations, whilst, for
some inferior foreign and hard Wheats, even a greater
reduction would be accepted; at the same time, we may re-
mark that, notwithstanding the extreme fineness of the
weather and the present dull aspect of the trade, there is
little if any disposition to force the market at a further sa-
crifice than has already been submitted to.

Flour has receded ftilly 6d per barrel, and but a limited
quantity sold.
Grinding Barleys and feeding Pease find purchasers in
retail, about former rates. Malt and Beans very unsaleable,
and prices almost nominal.
Oats and Oatmeal barely support Tuesday's currency ; the
demand for either article for consumption is quite limited,
but about 1000 sacks of the latter have been taken for
holding over.
The bonded market has been very flat; Wheat is without
inquiry, and 1000 barrels of Flour only have changed bands
since Tuesday at 29s 6d, being a reduction of 6d per barrel.

MEETING IN CLAYTON-SQUARE

after twelve o'clock, at which time the attendance
Ider ; but from one to two o'clock it presented a
increase of numbers. After two o'clock, till

The CHAIRMAN, after a fe

ntroductory re

meeting had been called for the purpose of taking into con-
sideration the propriety of praying her Majesty not to dissolve
parliament until it had taken into consideration the dis-
tressed state of the country—a state of suffering, as regarded
the working classes, unexampled, both in extent and duration,
in the annals of this nation. They were, perhaps, aware that
a motion to this effect had already been made and lost in the
House of Commons. Some of the honourable members of
that house opposed the motion on the ground that the evils
under which the country was labouring were irremediable ;
but surely it would have been better, it would have been

MANCHESTER CORN MARKET, JULY 16

Up to the close of business on Monday the weather continued
unsettled, and the improvement in the trade, which we noted in
our last report, was fully maintained. The receipt of the London
advices on Tuesday morning however, simultaneously with a
decided improvement in the weather, completely put a stop to sales,
further than what has been necessary for the supply of local con-
sumption, and the tendency of prices has since been towards a
decline. The duty on Wheat is now reduced to 8s per quarter, and
on Flour to 4s Id per barrel. At this day's market, the business
doing is on a very limited scale as respects every article. Thei
best qualities of English and Foreign Wheat are 2d per bushef
cheaper ; secondary sorts quite neglected. Approved brands o,
fresh Flour nearly supports former rates, but all other description s
may be bought on lower terms. Select samples of Oats and Oat
meal are nominally the same as on this day week, inferior without
any enquiry ; generally speaking however, the value of all is
somewhat lower than on this day week. Beans scarcely support
former rates. Malt steady, the stock of fine is small.
