LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. JAN. 18

Although the amount of sales effected during the week has
been to a good extent, there has been (until to-day) rather a
tame market, and in some instances American descriptions
were the turn in the buyer's favour; the quotations, however,
cannot be reduced. A fair business has been done in Brazil
and Egyptian, at steady prices. Surat has been in good re-
quest,. and is rather dearer, Speculators have taken 7,750
American, 50 Pernam, 460 Bahia, 670 Maranham, 500 Egyp-
tian, and 2,660 Surat, and Exporters, 660 American (chiefly of
fair to good Uplands) and 110 Surat. To-day the market ge-
nerally closed with more firmness, at the full quotations of
Friday last.

IRELAND.

The steward of Mr. Falkner in the county of Tippe-
rary, was shot dead on the night of Friday week, near his

own house

On Saturday the Sub-sheriff of Galway sold off the
property, consisting of clothing, furniture, &c., of the
Tuarn workhouse, under an execution for £250, at the
suit of some Dublin and Galway merchants.

On Tuesday night, as the mail was proceeding from
Nenagh to Templemore, having on it four passengers, a
body of men came forth from behind a ditch and at-
tacked it. The party threw stones at the passengers,
whom they struck, and they fired two shots.

TIPPERARY BARBARISM.—A poor starving man was
detected by a farmer named Hogan eating a turnip which
he had taken from a field on the farm, wren Hogan said
he was his prisoner, and he should send him to Bridewell.
Another farmer here came up and urged the humanity of
letting him go, and as he was quitting the field Hogan
presented his gun and shot the unfortunate man, who
now lies without hope of recovery. Hogan was appre-
hended and stands committed for trial at Nenagh.

DREADFUL MURDER.—On Thursday night la-st a farmer
named Edward Brien, of Duntryleague, near Kilfinan,
county of Limerick, was returning borne from Michels-
town, and was waylaid on the road and struck on the side
of the head with some sharp weapon, which fractured his
skull. He then got into a small cabin on the roadside,
but was totally unable to give any account of his assail-
ants, being quite speechless. He died early on the fol-
lowing day. Brien was a very inoffensive man, and has
left a wile and four children to mourn his loss.
Df EADFUL CATASTROPHE.—The Cork Examiner con-
tains an account of an awful disaster in Killarney, by
which a workhouse has been destroyed by fire, and twenty-
seven girls and two women killed. On Tuesday the fire
broke out about eleven o'clock, when the cries of the
wretched inmates from the windows, for assistance to save
them from the most terrible of all deaths, was most ap-
palling. After ladders had been procured the work of
rescue commenced most nobly. Every man vied with
his neighbour in his efforts to save life. Protestant and
Romanist clergymen, magistrates, physicians, police, and
people—all did their duty. But the result was a reported
loss of three lives. The dreadful part of the business,
however, remains to be told. The cry of " fire," and
the livid glare of the flames, which forced its way into the
brewery (branch house), awoke the sleeping children.
Alarm for parents, friends, relations, in the other house,
made distraction and confusion. They beheld the burn-
ing pile from the windows. In their eagerness to go
forth, they rushed madly to the doors and windows, but
they were locked or fastened. They then sought an
unused loft for the purpose of egress; but the rotten
planks gave way—twenty-eight persons were instantly
killed, and as many more frightfully mutilated.

he did not receive sufficient wages to enable him to live.

COLLISION.—The owner of the Queen of Beauty, Eg-
remont ferry-boat, applied for damages in consequence of
a collision with a Seacombe boat; but the evidence in-

John Murdoch, pawnbroker, was charged, at the instance
of the Select Vestry, with charging a female two much
interest upon two articles; but the evidence was not

AN INGENIOUS TRAP.—On Tuesday, Thomas Roberts
and John M'Bride were brought before Mr. Rushton, and
sent to gaol for three months, for being found suspici-
ously on board a flat in the George's Dock. They were
observed by the master of the flat to go on board the ves-
sel and into the cabin, when they struck a light, and cons-
cenced a rummage. He called down to know their busi-
ness, but receiving no answer, drew the scuttle on and
kept the delinquents in durance till an officer came and
removed them to bridewell. They were old offenders—
Roberts having been committed to prison sixteen times
previously, and M'Bride fifteen.
INFRACTIONS OF THE BYE-LAWS.—On Tuesday the
following persons were summoned before the magistrates
for non-compliance with local regulations :—John Conley,
a cab-driver, was fined 10s. and costs for overcharging a
gentleman in a fare. Wm. B. Nation was fined ss. and
costs, for permitting the carcases of four sheep to be ex-
posed in front of his shop, in Commutation-row. Joseph
Johnson was fined 20s. and costs, for driving a car without
being licenSed ; and Matilda Clark was fined in the like
amount, for employing him. At the same time, Marquis
Makin was fined 10s. and costs, for neglecting to remove
manure from a slaughter-house in Cable-street.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE. JAx. 19.
Dulness has prevailed during the week, but without any par-
ticular anxiety to sell, prices have remained nominally without
alteration. At our Exchange to-day the business doing is
confined to retail sales for present use. Wheat is generally
held at former rates. Four, if anything, tends downwards,
but iu the absence of pressure to sell there is no decline suffi-
ciently decided to induce us to alter quotations. In other arti-
cles no alteration. We have a change in the weather from se-
vere frost to rain and rapid thaw.

Perry, the editor of the Morning Chronicle, was
his friend, he resolved to do so through the channel of
that paper. It was agreed between them that Sheridan,
under a fictitious name, should write a history of the
affair, as it bad been misrepresented, and that he should
subsequently reply to it in his own name, giving the facts
of the case. The first part he accomplished, and there
appeared in the Chronicle a bitter article against him,
written, in fact, by himself ; but he could never find time
to write the answer, and it never was written :—" The
slothful man roastoth not that which he took in hunting."
EGOTISTIC ASSERTION.—There is one thing new under
the sun, and that is an erg cup ; no egg cups are to be
found in Etruscan sepulchres, in Egyptian pyramids, Or
Assyrian palaces ; eggs were only boiled hard in the shell,
and no spoon was used.—flrqrchart's Pillars of Her-
cules.-1-This is not exact. That eggs of old were subject

to the process of suction as well as of mastication, might be
gathered from Horace's reason for preferring those of an

oblong form—
