WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JAN. 7

We have a good supply of Wheat, a great portion of which
is much out of condition, and sells slowly on rather lower
terms; for fine dry parcels last week's prices are obtained.
Barley rather cheaper, *ith only a slow sale. Oats and Shell-
ing remain as last stated. Beans sell in retail at late rates.

MANCHESTERCORN.EXCHANGE, JAN

The transactions of the week have been trifling, at the rates
of our last report. The Liverpool and Wakefield markets, yes-
terday, were flat, and prices barely supported. The same de-
scription applies to this day's business ; there is, however, no
stock of any article to cause the least pressure, and though in
partial cases some concession may be made, this is not so gene-
ral as to render it necessary to make any material alteration in
the quotations of our last.

ON SATURDAY,

On view of the body of Philip Price, aged 29. Ott
Friday afternoon deceased was found by his brother, a
carter, lying on the Brunswick Dock-quay, very drunk.
He was unable to stand, and his brother put him into his
cart and took him home to Sun-street. A surgeon was
called; applied the stomach pump, and drew up a qUantity
of stuff that smelt like rum. He was put to bed, but
died at eight o'clock the same night. Another witness,
also a carter, had observed deceased that afternoon fill a
tin can twice from a puncheon of rum on the quay and
drink. The can would hold about a noggin. Deceased.
afterwards put his mouth to the cask and drank from it.
On the body of Francis Hasson, six years old, who
lived in Russell-street, Toxteth-park. On Friday fort-
night deceased was left in his shirt only with another
child in the room. His shirt caught fire, and he was so
much burnt that he died on Friday.
011 the body of John WC-inn, six years old, who lived
with his parents in Back Portland-street. Deceased had
had a cold and hoarseness, and it appeared had died from
inflammation of the lungs.
On view of the body of an infant unknown, found on
Saturday morning, enclosed in a box, in St. Patrick's
Chapel-yard, Toxteth-park. The•body was that of a full
grown female infant.

- On the body of Mary M`Ninny, aged 84. She was
apparently well a quarter of an hour before, and it ap-
peared died of congesti.n of the longs.
SUDDEN DEATH OF A PERSON UNKNOWN.—On view
of the body of a man unknown. On Friday afternoon
deceased was observed in St. James's-walk to fall down,
and was instantly picked up in an insensible state. He
died in about three minutes. A small sum of money and
some trifling articles were found upon him. He was
stout built ; about five feet ten inches in height, and was
respectably dressed. He wore a blue pilot-cloth coat,
striped trousers, and plaid vest.
On the body of Thomas Quagin. On Friday afternoon,
deceased suddenly fell in Preston-street, and was found
frothing at the mouth and unable to speak. He was
placed in a chair in the- street, and died in about ten
minutes. Mr. Norris, surgeon, examined the body and
Stated that death was caused by disease of the heart.
On the body of a child named Isabella Jones. De-
ceased, who lived with her parents in Bull-entry, Scot-
land-road, died suddenly in bed, from, it appeared,
convulsions, the effect of natural causes.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1848-09-12

The SCALE of REDUCTIONS which are guaranteed ranges
from 331 to 52 per cent. on the amount of Premium, and the
Bonus contingent only on the continuance of the life doubles
the amount of Policy.
No LIABILITY of Partnership, these reductions and addi-
tions not being contingent upon Profits.
POLICIES are issued for the Half Premium system, and on
an ascending scale.
SURRENDERS of POLICIES are accepted on very liberal
terms ; and claims are paid withir. three months after satis-
factory proof of death.
INSURANCE OF CAPITAL SUMS.

The Directors are prepared to receive applications for Poli-
cies, which, though available for many other purposes as well,
will have the effect of rendering Property held under Lease for
years equivalent to Freehold for all purposes of mortgages or
investment. The following Table will afford
Specimens of the Premium for the Insurance of £lOOO, payable

many of them very fairly grounded, of disease in
the potato crop ; we had showers and the prospect
of weather most unsatisfactory to our farmers. A
short while before- these awkward symptotna of
home agricultural failure came upon us, we were
beginning to feel something like a revival of busi-
ness amongst our manufacturing community. Eu-
rope was becoming tranquillized. The'revolutionary
mania was, we thought, dying out; and stability was
about to succeed the prospect of universal change.
We ought not, therefore, it would have been ex-
pected, to entertain much fear of a temporary failure
of the potato, so long as the affairs of Europe re-
main moderately tranquil. We might require in-
creased importations of food for our own popula-
tion. But we had been taught to believe that such
increased importations of foreign food were a boon
to us ; that they were universally paid for by in-
creased exportation of manufactured goods, in pay-
ment of such food ; and that, as for our own home
trade, it would be advantaged by such increased
importations; and that, what we lost, in the
home grower's inability to buy, would he made
up fourfold in the stimulus given to our foreign
demand.
What was the first result of the fears which
went abroad of a failing potato crop and a deficient
harvest? The manufacturer suspended his opera-
tions. He saw before him a decreased home de-
mand. But did he not, as promised him by the
Free-traders, see clearly that if we had to take the
grain of the foreigner, he would have an increased
measure of custom from the foreigner? He did no
such thing. He saw every foreign buyer suspend-
ing his operations. He saw foreign orders, pre-
viously given, countermanded. He saw men be-
ginning to set their houses in order, in anticipation,
or in fear, of another monetary panic. He saw
nothing to assure him that what be had been pro-
mised as the result of Free Trade—increased ex-
ports to pay for increased imports of food—was
likely to occur. He took to his account the warn-
ing of past experience; and he has probably saved
himself from ruin in so doing.
We shall not pursue the subject. It is only a
text that we have given. Will any of our free-
trade friends explain to us the reason of this fresh
dawning of their coming convictions? If they will
not we must do so for them; and we shall not de-
lay in so doing.

HEALTH COMMITTEE.

The proceedings including wash-houses and baths,
comprised a report on the memorial of the ratepayers of
Kirkdale, and on the resolution of the ratepayers of West
Derby, on the subject of the rates under the Sanitary
Act; a resolution, that reporters for the press be permit-
ted to attend the future meetings of the Health Commit-
tee, except during discussion of financial business ; and a
further report from the sub-committee on sites for addi-
tional baths and wash-houses.

Mr. TINNE whilst seconding the motion, said that the
committee had paid attention to the Kirkdale memorial
relative to the rates, and that they had prepared a report
in reply to it, which would be circulated. He had an
objection to the admission of reporters to the meetings of
the committee, and he would vote against that proposi-
tion. With regard to the site for additional baths and
wash-houses, land in Smithdown-lane had been selected,
and there a great improvement would be effected, for a
street 16 yards in width would be made.
Mr. RATIIBONE moved, as an amendment, that repor-
ters be not admitted to the meetings of the -Health Com-
mittee.

Mr. EVANS seconded the amendment, and several
other members spoke for and against it.

Upon a division the amendment was lost by a majority
of 22 to 19—so that the reporters will in future be admit-
ted to the meetings of this committee.

WATER COMMITTEE

Lengthened reports were read in the proceedings of the
Water Committee relative to the alleged ricketty state of
the engines at the various stations of the late Harrington
and Bootle Works. It was stated that the following
complaints of the insufficient quantity and the impurity
of the water had been made in the years 1846. 7, and 8 :
In 1846, 751 complaints; in 1847, 837; and in 1848, 566
com plaints.
Mr. HIGGINS observed that the contracts entered into
by the Water Committee for the Rivington Pike scheme
were very low, and that there would be a very large saving
on them, something like £120,000. (Hear.)
Memorials were read from three old servants belonging
to the late Water Companies, praying for annuities or
employment, which were referred to the Water Com-
mittee. _

Mr. Alexander NEILSON, clerk to the treaturer of the
Corporation, prayed for remuneration for important ser-
vices rendered to the Council on various occasions; and
his memorial was also referred to the Water Committee.
The Council having, at a quarter to four o'clock, arri-
ved at Mr. S. Holme's motion for rating the Liverpool
Docks,

Mr. G. H. LAWRENCE moved an adjournment until
Wednesday (to-morrow), which wss carried.

WISBECH CORN MARKET. SEPTEMBER 9.

There has only been a fair show of Wheat today, but not any

better. No Beans or Oats offering.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 9.

At some concession in the price of Flour, a fair business has
been done during the week ; and other articles have met a
moderate demand, without much change in value. Liverpool
and Wakefield yesterday, though without animation, exhibited
a firmer feeling, and the same may be said of our market to-
day. We reduce our quotations for Flour Is. per sack, and
Wheat 3d. per bushel, at which decline there is more disposi-
tion to purchase. In other articles there is no particular
variation, with the exception of Indian Corn, for which there
has again been a large sale at an advance of 2s. to 3s. per qr.
No new Oats or Oatmeal offering. The few samples of new
Wheat bring 3d. to 4d. per bushel, and Flour Is. and 2s. per
sack less than old, but at present prices are unceriain.
