when he was received with every possible demonstration
of enthusiasm. He is to be entertained at a grand dinner.

opinion that all danger is over, notwithstanding fever
remained.

quantity of plate from the house of a gentleman where be

it so well deserves.

The maps published under the superintendence of the

squares, in counties, or complete sets, from the local
agents of the board, Mr. Waring Webb, stationer, Castle-

tioners, Exchange-street, Manchester. as far

NEW MODE OF ENSURING HONEST COFFEE.—Our
attention has been called to a new mode of grinding coffee,
adopted by Messrs. Hollis, Walford & Co., by which
every buyer of coffee at their shop has an opportunity of
seeing such quantity of the article as he may purchase
ground first in the berry, and ground again after passing
through a mill worked by a beautiful steam-engine. By
this process. even the suspicion of adulteration is guarded
against, and a pure article secured.

LITHOGRAPHED PORTRAIT OF THE REV. W. M.
FALLOON.—An excellently Lithographed Portrait of the
Rev. Incumbent of St. Johns has just been published by
Messrs. Maclure and C o.of Castle-street, from a paint-
ing by Mr. Brownless, of which the numerous admirers
of the eloquent and excellent preacher would do well to
possess themselves. Mr. Falloon is represented as he ap-
pears in his pulpit, in one of those impressive attitudes
which he assumes in the delivery of his discourses ; and
the likeness, although not a flattered one, is good.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 16.
We have had a good supply of Beast at market to-day, but
a smaller supply of Sheep and Lambs; anything prime met
with good demand at a shade of advance in price. Beef 5d to
sid ; Mutton 5d to 51d: Lamb sjd to Cd.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPT. 16. A
Nothing new in the Cotton market, it is dull, tame, an".
insipid, almost lifeless, without any change in prices. Buyers
are mistaken hen they come down to do very cheap business,
and some return to use their old stocks; in this way the daily
business averages 3,500 bales, some of these for ex ort•
Br ,zil, Egyptian, and Surat Cotton are if possible heavier than
American.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, SEPr. 16.
The Butter market is very quiet; and although prices reirlala
nominally as last quoted; the feeling with influential holders;
is to take 2s per cwt. less. Fine select Cork dairies, approved
