• . . I will have no further correspondence with you
Ai this, or on any other subject. My reason for refusing all
further communication with you is, that I find you are con •

carefully kept from denying that you are the author of the
foul and false statements of that print."
Mr. Bright thus closes the correspondence—
serts that I am connected with the ' anti-bread-tax paper, and
that I have carefully avoided denying that I am the author'
of the article which has so griveously offended thee. I know
not how thou bast obtained the information as to my con-
nexion with the paper in question, nor is it of importance
whether that information be true or not. I have said no-
thing of the authorship, never having supposed that the ar-
ticle could have been attributed to me, and have, therefore,
never felt called upon to deny or to admit it ; and now, when
I am thus charged, I think it well not to give thee any infor-
mation, and not even to say whether I know anything about
it or not. Thy correspondence bears strong testimony that
thou art conscious of having done us wrong, and that this
consciousness makes thee somewhat uncomfortable."

t the „ cooling liquor ;" and as he had signed no
teetotal pledge, and found no fault with the quality or strength
of the alcholic beverage, took the liberty of helping himself
to another " drain ;" but, like many of those above him in
the rank of creation, he could not be content with quantum
suf., so he again drank deep, then " deeper still," and at
length went " the whole hog " for the remainder by " finish-
ing it off." Having thus seen the last of it, he began to feel
that he had taken more than he could carry, so he somewhat
suddenly dropped to sleep, forgetful of all terrestrial troubles.
The woman, having had her " say " with her neighbour, be-
thought her of the cooling liquor, and returned to the brew-
house. The sight of the " sleeping beauty " not a little star-
tled her, but what had become of the liquor neither she nor
her " customer " could positively say ; but she supposed the
animal was the " cooler for her liquor.—Halifax Guardian.
THE TRUE POLICV.—The following very excellent obser-
vations made by Mr. Sergeant Atcherley, in addressing the
Dorset Grand Jury, at the recent assizes, we commend to
the attention of landlords, masters, and all whom they may
concern, as being conceived in a fine spirit of philanthropy,
and the application of which to practical life would seem to
be, in the present state of things, more than ever necessary.
In looking over the calendar (he observed) it was impossible,
from the large number of minor offences, not to think that
many of these might have arisen from distress ; and, to
gentlemen of their station and education, he need hardly
remark that it was the truest policy to provide for the wants
of the lower classes. If thsy they wished the labourer to be
happy and contented in his station, they must find him the
means of obtaining an honest livelihood, not binding him
down to a harsh contract, but affording him fair remunera-
tion for his work ; if they wished him to be peaceable and
orderly. and to respect the laws, they must, by kind atten-
tion to his interests, convince him that those above him
were not his tyrants and oppressors, but his best friends; if
they wish him to be honest happy, and virtuous, they must
hold out to him the means of acquiring useful knowledge,
but above all religious knowledge. It was by thus binding
the different classes of society that they would best secure
public peace and tranquility, and bring about a diminution
of crime—that they would preserve the social compact from
disruption through the subtlety of the evil, in a way in
which no punishment or terror could effect. And, above all,
by so acting they would best administer to that truest of all
pleasures, the gratification of seeking to do good, and of
promoting their own happiness by seeking as far as they
could to advance the happiness of their fellow men.
SITE or ST. PAUL'S, LONDON.—It is more than proba-
ble, that in that place where St. Paul's Church now stands
there was a wood or grove at first, in regard there was a fane
or temple erected there to the honour of Diana; for historians
observe, that whereas Venus, Mars, and Vulcan, were used
to have their temples in the suburbs, Jupiter and Apollo
within the city, the goddess Diana was used to have her tem-
ples set up in the woods, which might,make the Britains de-
nominate that place Ltundian, which is as much as Diana's
grove or town. As this derivation carrieth a great semblance
of truth with it, so the third, viz., Llhandian carrieth as
much, if not a greater verisimilitude, and weight most with
me. The Britains to this day call a church or temple Llhan,
whereof there be a great number in \Vales to this day, as
Lihangorse, Llhansawel, Llhandillo, &c., which signifieth
the churches of such places. And whereas by the current
and consentient opinion of all antiquaries, there was a Pagan
temple or fans, erected to Diana, in that place where now St.
Paul's stands, there being yet there a place called Camera
Diann, where ox heads and bones are daily found, which used
to be offered her as victims and sacrifices, I say, it is more
than probable, that the Britains were induced thereby to call
the place Nhandian, which is the temple of biana, and so in
tract of time, the word was contracted, and came to be called
London. Certain old houses adjoining are, in the ancient
records of the church, called Diana's chamber; and, in the
church-yard, while Edward the First reigned, an incredible
number of ox heads were found, as we find in our annals,
which the common sort at that time wondered at, as the sac-
rifices of the Gentiles • and the learned know,. that Taurapoli,
were celebrated in the honour of Diana.—Howel's Lon-
dinopolis.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, MARCH 22

We had a very excellent show of stock to. day, and the quality
also good. The market in consequence was dull, and lower for
both the best Beef and Mutton. A number of Beasts and Sheep
unsold.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARcR 21

A very fair inquiry, for Tuesday, both from the trade and
speculators, and the sales will reach 3,000 bales at yesterday's
prices, with a quiet but steady market.

COTTON MARKET, MARCH

Our market opened this morning with a very general and good
demand. Buyers evidently bent upon purchasing to a much larger
extent than for some time past. This induced many holders to
show their stocks, and notwithstanding the eagerness with which
various parcels were bought up, the good supply prevented any
advance in price, the only change being in favour of the holders
having a spirited demand for his material. The sales exceeded
10,000 bales, of which about 3,000 were taken by speculators.

COTTON MARKET, MARCH 23.
The extensive demand for Cotton noticed in our circular of
yesterday, has been considerably encreased to-day. The sales are
estimated at 14,000 bales. (4,040 on speculation, and I,oso for ex-
port.) Buying was continuedwith great spirit to the close of 'Change,
and many have not yet complete 1 their orders ; in many instances
rather higher prices have been paid, and the market has not been
so well supplied as it was yesterday, and there is a degree of firm-
ness and stability about the market that looks healthy.
