At Bradford there is not the least appearance
arrangement being come to between the masters and the
journeymen. The trnde of the town of Bradford at the
present time is such that the masters are benefitted by the
absence of the men, and under the circumstances we are
reminded of the woolcombers' strike in 1825,—it, as the
esent, was unfortunate for the working men.
At Manchester the strike still continues; the employ-
ers are gradually fill,ng up their shops with applicants

The turn-outs keep up the system of piquoting, and of

ticing them away.

The subject of Tawell's confession was again before the
magistrates, at the Bucks Aess.ions, last week ; a resolu-
tion was passed, by a maj rity of six to three, that the
chaplain, the Rev. Mr. Cox, should produce the docu-
n3ent. The rev. gentleman, however, said that he bad
made a solemn promise to Tawell not to part with the
statement, and that no Dower on earth .hntod

him to do so. It remains to be seen what furthcr pro-
ceedings will be taken.
On Saturday, Samuel Yarham was executed at Norwich
for the murder of Mrs. Candler, at Yarmouth. He did
not make any confession but maintained a sullen stlenns.
20,000 people were present. This execution stands in
one respect almost unparalleled in English history—that
of a man being hanged for a murder atter he had been
allowed to give evidence against three supposed accom-

plices in the same offenc.. He is also executed upon
statements which be himself made whilst under the im-
pression that, in consequence of giving such evidence, he
was free from any ul erior proceedings.
CATTLE FROM THE CA E.—A vessel called the Sir
Edward Ryan arrived in the St. Katherine's Dicks a few
days since from Canton and also the Cape of Good Einpe,
at which latter place she had called on her homeward
voyage, had on board, in addition to an extensive cargo,
comprising every article usually imported from China and
the Cspe respectively, 60 bags o; flour, 60 bags of barley,
sundry packages of onions, apples, seeds. and flowers,
and 80 sheep, the p-oduce of the latter place. The im-

. _ .
portation of cattle trout the south of Africa is certainly a
novelty, and it remains t., be seen to how great an extent
such importations from that distant quarter of the globe
may profitably be carded.
NEW RAILWAY HOTEL —Much alarm has been cre-
ated amongst the botel-ke-pers in this town by a rumour
that the Grand Juncti a Company are about to tiors as
themselves of the whole of th, land from Lime-street to
Hotham-street, and from London-road to Lord Nelson-
street, including the whole of the Blind Asylum, for the
purpose of erecting an 11,,t4 upon it fur railway passen-
gers. It is said that, having eon disappointed in pro-
curing the site of the I.lington Mat ket, they have now
set their eyes on the land in question, and are d,termined
to purchase it from the several owners. The hotel-
keepers view the design as an infringement upon their
private rights, and are likely t I call a meeting shortly
with the view of memorializing the Council on the sub-
ject.

Tne result of the negotiations of the Cheater and No,
lyhead Company with the G.,vernment for the immediate
formation of a harbour of refuge and railway pier at the
latter port, is that if the company agreed to contribute
towards the outlay a sum of £200,009, the works should
be carried out to the full extent descr:hed on the plans,
and be immediately commenced, and prosecuted with the
utmost expedition. The inner pier is to be appropriated
to the company's traffic and the use of her IVl,jesty s go-
vernment, and the present harbour deepened for the pur-
poses of the railway by giving accommodation to the lar-
ger class of steam-packets, until such time as the new
harbour and pier can he n ade available. Glvernment
has undertaken to pay £30,000 annually for the carriage
of the mails for five years, to be suLs quently increased
on a scale with the interest accruing The-

atmosphere became warm, it not sultry ; and to crown

UTTERING BASE COIN. —YeArrclav, at the Police-
ctlirt, a man named Thumits Cuniponn, his young wife
Mary, and an old woman, Mary Mul!ov were charged
with this offence. The first part of the charge proved
that the younger female had passed a bad cr 'wn to
a woman named Murray, on Saturday night, in the Ped-
lar's Market. The other two were wi,h her. and on the
deception being discovered, the younger tirianner cried
to the male, " Now Bob, run for your life I" He was
