-Acellent taste: in
the Grand Concerts now announced she has far exßutceeded
herself. A mere glance at the Programme in our adver-
tising columns will show, to those who know anything
about the expense attending such engagements as she has
made, that she has.uot hesitated, in her desire to secure
the most eminent Talent, to incur a serious responsi-
bility ; but no doubt she will be liberally rewarded by
the patronage of the community for whom she so bounti-
fully caters. Not a whit behind her liberality is the
judgment with which the programmes of the various
evenings have been made. The pieces set down to the
eminent artistes are those for the execution of which
they have reaped the applause of the discerning in music
throughout Europe. Madame Grisi, the Lab!ache, and

and she arrived in the Clyde oh the 20th of that month.
There an order was i,sued to deliver her cargo to the
warehouse of Messrs. Connell and Co., but on the 7th
June, when the defendant was applied to fur the payment
of the £730, he wrote to the plaintiffs to say that the
cargo was not in accordance with the terms of the con-
tract, and therefore he could not pay the money until it
was ascertained whether that was so or not. Eventually
the defendant refused to take the guano, the market having
fallen, and consequently the action was brought to recover
the sum of £3086, with interest, the value of it.

of Mfiy

Mr. Thomas Nickson Kerr, a commission agent at
London, proved the connect which was put in and
read. In cross-examination by Mr. Martin, he stated
that he examined three samples of the guano, two of
which were very inferior, one worse than the other, and
the third was scarcely an average.

The examinations of Mr. John Murray, a guano mer-
chant, and Wm. Hewitt, mate of the Sarah, Capt. Chal-
mers, which had been taken before the Master of the
Court of Exchequer, were then put in and read. They
described bow the cargo had been obtained, and deposed
to its being of an average quality.

William Kilpatrick, tidewaiter of. Glasgow, who was on
Sarah when the cargo was landed, and Mr. W.
guano mrrchant, stated that the

Dixon, of Glasgow,

k Parry, Profmor of C

emistry at the

_..,unian University, Glasgow, was then called, and
he stated that on the 22d May he examined a sample of
the guano landed from the Sarah. He found it to contain
mmonia and animal matter (including 12.07ofammoniA)
46.33; alkaline sulphates and muriates 3.01 ; sulphate of
lime 31.47 ; rocky matter 0.7; and of water 18.04. Ammo-
nia is the principal ingredient in guano. In this sample
the quantity of ammonia is above the average; generally
consider 00.8 to be the average in Ichaboe guano. The

LEAGUE INGRATITUDE

The unhappy old Radical, who has just bad his preten-
sions rejected by the electors of Sunderland, has just re-
ceived a cut from their organ, the Manchester Guardian,
which is as unkind as it is illustrative of the manner in
which the League deals with their worn-out instruments.
Col. Thomson is getting a little seedy in his reputation.
The humbug has become rather too apparent in his com-
position. The lacquer has worn off him, and disclosed
the brass underneath. The Guardian, therefore, repu-
diates him, and declares that " the League had nothing to
do with his selection." Our contemporary adds—" We
presume that they have now had enough of him : and
that they will not again waste their strength and damage
their influence, by labouring to return a candidate whom
no constzturney will accept."
The League has now had enough of the Colonel. He
has lost his battle, poor man, and is to be disowned—to
he thrown into the lumber closet, like a psir of worn-out
boots or an old hat. And yet, but four-and-twenty days
ago, the chairman of that body thus wrote of the veteran,
in a circular addressed to the free-trade constituents of

1 Sunderland :

" Passing from these reflections to a consideration of
the personal claims of the two candidates, I need not re-
mind you of the inestimable services of Colonel Thomp-
son to the cause of commercial freedom. Suffice it to
say, that, but for his disinterested labours, the question
could not now have been so near its finalsettlement. The
Council of the League. thiu-Df.r.. ....-,.carry aria re-
s,uectpitty request that you will assist the Free-trade elec-
tors of Sunderland in their endeavours to return Col.
Thompson to Parliament, either by corresponding with
friends resident there, and endeavouring to impress them
with your own views of the momentous question at issue,
or, if practicable, by your personal co-operation on the

- Of what a hard-hearted generation must these men be!
—harder than the iron of their own machinery. For years
the poor Colonel has been writing, spouting, hurrying hi-
ther and thither, fighting forlorn hopes every where in their
cause ; " inestimable" his services have been ; to him is
due the fact that the question of free trade is " so near its
final settlement :" but the Colonel won't go down with
respectable constituencies, and he is therefore sent adrift,
in his sear and yellow leaf, to sing for the rest of his days
" Blow, blow, thou winter wind !
Thou art not so unkind
As League ingratitude."

STATE OF TRADE

MANCHICSTKR.—Every branch of trade is so extremelyhealthy,
both in Manchester and the neighbourhood, that even the bad
weather we have had during the whole of the week has failed
to operate against us, and we may fairly report that a large
business has been done both in cloth and yarns without the
s ightest alteration for the worse in price. Indeed both 4.l.inch
shirtings, 27 -inch 72's, and heavy domestic cloth are in many
instances a shade higher, and almost a tota► absence of stocks
in the manufacturers hands. The spinners are also working to
order, and the profits are great. One mill in this neighbourhood
is clearing one thousand pounds per week in a single article.
In several of the districts the masters have advanced the wages
of their hands, and we hope and expect, now trade is so good,
that it will be done generally, for it is no exaggeration to gay
that more money is making by spinning than was ever before
known. Prices are as follows :-27-inch 60's, 4s. 6d. to is. 9d ;
66's. 6a. to ss. 6d ; and 70's, Is. gd. to 6s. 3d.

backed as they are by the sympathising
!lions of their British Protestant fellow-

subjects, will submit to have their christian principles
thus outraged, and their very lives perilled, merely
to purchase for any ministry the temporary solution

of a difficulty—the assuaging of an agitation which
ought to be put down by the strong hand of the
executive. The Orangemen and the Protestants of
Ireland—" they are synonymous terms"—will not so
submit. They ought not so to submit. These men
know their strength—they know in what it consists
—their resolve to stand by each other against the
attacks and aggressions of their own multitudinous
enemies, and the enemies of the country from
which they have sprung. They have experienced it
in past years of difficulty and trial. They have not
forgot the events of the year 1798 ! But for those
men what would have been the position of the
British Empire now ? Through what awful scenes
of devastation must we have waded to preserve that
nationality—that entireness of the empire—which,
in the hands of God, has been the means of raising
Great Britain to the position of the leading Empire
of Europe—the arbitress of the world ! And, left
to themselves to struggle for very existence in the
land which their own loyalty preserved, ungratefully
abandoned, they will not submit to be trampled
upon unresisting and unavenged.

*No, this ministry, which is now playing into the
hands of Rebellion, will find that they have in Ire-
land—however we in this land, from whose hearths
and homees the dread of armed outrage is far
removed, may lick the hand which rebukes and
insults us—a body of men who will not passively
endure indignity and betrayal. Sir Robert Peel
cannot put down Orangeism in Ireland by the
policy which he is pursuing, or by any other policy
except the removal of the necessity which has
called forth its recent manifestations of active ex-
istence. He will only spread it in England. He
may establish it amongst us as the living principle
of Protestantism, prepared to take the place of the
caput mortuum of conservatism. He may drive
the sleeping dronish spirit of the thing, into the em-
brace of which he has cajoled us, as a saving weapon
