FAREWELL TO THE OLD YEAR•

Farewell to the Year, which will soon disappear,
May the next with success be attended ;
Through the universe wide, may Dame Fortune preside,
And commerce and trade be extended.
May kingdoms unite, in defence of our rights,
May freedom and justice e'er flourish;
Prosperity smile, round our own bonny isle,
Each subject his rights ever cherish.
May the sunshine of Peace, all our prospects increase,
May health and contentment be near us;
May friendship and joy, all our moments employ,
And our conscience triumphantly steer us.
With wishes like these, and the cheapest of clothes,
Would HYAM appeal to the nation;
His gratitude, too, is unbounded to you,
For your favours and kind approbation.
His splendid success, 'tis a task to express,
In efforts you'll find no reaction ;
His clothing for all, and at prices so small,
Must ever ensure satisfaction.

For the holiday times, his stock now combines,
Of clothing a boundless collection ;
The great and the small, the short and the tall,
May choose from his splendid selection.

The business in Cotton throughout the whole of last week
was large, though the demand moderated on Saturday, and to-
day, only 5,000 bales have been sold, Derhaps in some measure
owing to the dense fog which caused occasional suspension 0'
business, from the impossibility of distingu shing colours. The
accounts by the packet arrived yesterday, are not of an excitiop
nature, so that there is no new feature to notice in to-day
business. Prices are fully supported, and rule gener ally d Pe'

in with the trade, but seem now pretty well satisfied to leave'
to the consumers.

LONDON CORN MARKET, DEC. 27

We have had but very short ar ivals of Grain. The wind
being easterly, with thick weather, preve•ts supplies coming up.
We have quite a ho yday market to-day, with prices unaltered
from Monday.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-12-31

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. THIS DAY.

Although the wind continues to come from the east,
and a dense fog .has almost constantly prevailed of late,
the weather has. been moderate, and sevrral vessels, pre-
viously near at hand, have worked up the river since
Friday, containing a tolerable quantity of Wheat, Oats,
Bean , and Oatmeal, with a good supply of Malt and
Flour, Coastwise and from Ireland ; the arrivals from
abroad during the week consisting chiefly of a few of the
last fall shipments from Canada.
Although there is an indication of the inland navigation
being shortly opened, we had very few country buyers at
market to-day, and a very dull trade for Wheat of all
descriptions. English and Foreign, notwithstanding,
were held at last week's prices, but Irish recededld. per
701bs.

AU denominations of Flour likewise met a very limited
sale, and may be noted the turn cheaper.
Barley and Malt were equally difficult of sale, but with-
out any material change in prices.
Beans and Pease in slow request on rather lower terms.
Oats declined id. per 451b5., and were taken off very
sparingly at that abatement. •
Oatmeal, upon a very slow demand, scarcely main-
tained our last quotations.

RAILWAY INTALLIGEACE.

The West London Railway, which for a long time has
been struggling for an existence, is at last to be purchased
by the Birmingham company. The sum of £60,000 is,
it is said, to be paid down, and the line to be completed
to the Thames near Battersea-bridge, the West Lon lon
Company to receive one-fourth of the gross annual re-
ceipts on the present West London line.

The South Western Railway Company have purchased
the Guildford Junction line. The sum of £75,000 is to
be paid on the completion of a single line of rails, X 20,000
to be paid therefrom to the patentees of Prosser's inven-
tion as compensation for the non-adoption of wooden
rails. It is understood the purchase is absolute, whether
the projected Guildford, Chichester, and Portsmouth line
be granted or not.

RAILWAY BILLS.—The railway comm'ssioners of the
bard of trade base issued a new form of ra IA a; bill,
which is required to be adopted by all professional agents
during the next session. This bill comprises about ten
pages of letter-press, in lieu of one hundred and fifty
pages, of which railway bills formerly consisted. The
mode by which this reduction in bulk has been effected is
by referring to certain general acts, which are intended to
be passed in the next session, for consolidatint all the
clauses usually to be found in railway bills. The drafts
of these intended acts were laid on the table of the House
of Commons at the end of last session.

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, DEC. 27.

• The large purchases made by the butchers last week have
been found fully adequate to the retail demand, and us the shops
are now sufficiently sto ke,l for the present week and more.
there was but a small attendance of the trade this morning. The
supplies were in all cases small, even for the time of the year,
but there be ng few buyers present trade was exceedingly dull;
in fact no description of meat was wanted. Beef of the best
quality made but 45., and old South Downs 4s. 4d.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-12-31

SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET

The supply of Beasts brought forward was but limited, and
of very inferior quality. The demand for all kinds of Beef was
in a very sluggish state at a decline on last week's quotations
of 2d. per Bibs., the highest figure realised for the few prime
Scots offering not, being more than 4s. 2d. per 8 lbs., and at
which a clearance was not effected.
Since this day se'nnight the imports of foreign stock have
been miserably small. The bullock droves fresh up from Lin-
colishire, &c. were composed of about 800 short horns. From
Norfolk. &c. we received 400 Scots, &c. ; from the Western and
Midland districts, fOO He efords, &c. : from other parts of Eng-
land, 400 of various kinds; and from Scotland, 185 horned and
polled Scots.
The number of Sheep was sufficiently numerous; the very
primest old Downs were in fair demand, at late rates, but the
general trade was extremely dull. Notwithstanding the supply
of Calves was small, the inquiry for them was inactive, at about
stationary prices. Upwards of 200 Pigs were on sale from Ire-
land, while the Pork trade was in a sluggish state, at our quo-
tations.

LAW INTELLIGENCE,

LIBEL.—At a special court, held at Castletown, Isle of
Man, on the 19th instant, Mr. Robert Farghar, proprie-
tor of the illona's Herald, was convicted of a libel on
Mr. W. Dumbell, one of the directors of the famous Isle
of Man Joint-Stock Banking Company. The jury, for
some time, persisted in returning no other verdict but
that of " guilty of printing unlawfully, but not mali-
ciously ;" but the court would not receive it. They
found a verdict of guilty, strongly recommending the de-
fendant to the merciful consideration of the court.
The sea-worthiness of a vessel called the Reliance was
the subject of a case (Johnson v. Chapman) tried in the
Court of Exchequer on Friday. The Reliance was lost
in her passage from Aden to Siam, and the Neptune
Assurance Company refused to pay the amount of policy
effected with them. The case for tie defence was, that
the ship was unfit to be sent to sea. The vessel was in-
sured for a voyage from London to Newcastle, thence to
Aden and Siam, and for her return voyage; and the So-
licitor-General, for the Neptune Assurance Company,
contended that the question for the jury to decide was,
whether on leaving port sbe was seaworthy for her whole
voyage, "and not whether she could stagger out to Aden
or Moulmein, there to be repaired." Was she capable of
going the whole way in her then condition ? The vessel
had been reduced from JE red to /E black before she
sailed, but it was contended that this reduction of her
class could not affect the policy, as the owner was not
aware of it till after it had been effected ; nor was evi-
dence called to prove that if the reduction from )E red to
YE black had been notified to the underwriters a further
premium would have been payable. The Chief Baron
ruled, that if the vessel was seaworthy to go to Moul-
mein, and it was intended that she should there be re-
paired, that was sufficient. Seaworthiness might t e
from one port to another. The learned Judge charged
the jury that the Reliance was well calculated for the
purposes for uhich she was destined, and that in point of
law the seaworthiness of a vessel must be taken in refer-
e ice to the trade to which she belonged. The jury re-
turned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, £1,544.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1844-12-31

ANTICIPATED BREVET.

The report of an early brevet daily gains ground ; in-
deed, when we look over the army and navy lists, and
recollect the ages of the superior officers in either service,
it becomes evident that we need some younger men to be
raised to the higher ranks in both. In the navy, as we
remarked 19st week, there are scarcely five men under 60
years of age among the first fifty on the list of captains;
and the greater part of this number, it has been shown to
us, are above sixty-five. The same, we believe, may be
said of the next fifty on the list ; thus, it must be manifest
that the next promotion of flag officers, whenever it may
take place, will, as we have heard is the intention, include
the captains of 1810, which will be just forty-three, even
if it does not go lower ; and this number, former prece-
dents, together with the death of so many admirals (fifty,
we think) since the last brevet, will fully authorise its
being extended to.
In January, 18:37, the number of captains promoted to
rear admirals, was
In June, 1838....
In November, 1841
Hence, as upwards of three years have now elapsed
since the last promotion, we have every reason to expect
that the number of captains to be promoted to be flag
officers will at least amount to 43, even if it dces not equal
the number that have died since the previous brevet. We
might further remark, in support of the necessity of
making the promotion of flag officers thus extensive,
that one of the first fifty captains on the list we have been
informed that there are scarcely ten who have commanded
sea-going ships for any period of time during the lest
twenty-five years and upwards; and, that moreover, nut
of the first two hundred there are full one hundred and
fifty who stand in the same situation. Thus, with every
sense of the gallantry and former professional reputation
of these officers, we humbly think that after being from
twenty-five to thirty years on shore, they would not desire
to be again brought into active employment at sea, where
every thing would appear so changed as to make their
duties irksome and unpleasant to themselves, and aerionaly
inconvenient to the public see vice.—Naval and Military

FAREWELL TO THE OLD YEAR

Farewell to the Year, which will soon disappear,
May the next with success be attended ;
Through the universe wide, may Dame Fortune preside,
And commerce and trade be extended.

May kingdoms unite, in defence of our rights,
May freedom andjustice e'er flourish;
Prosperity smile, round our own bonny isle,
Each subject his rights ever cherish.
May the sunshine of Peace, all our prospects increase,
May health and contentment be near us;
May friendship and joy, all our moments employ,
And our conscience triumphantly steer us.

With wishes like these, and the cheapest of clothes,
Would HYAM appeal to the nation;
His gratitude, too, is unbounded to you,
For your favours and kind approbation.
His splendid success, 'tis a task to express,
In efforts you'll find no reaction ;
His clothing for all, and at prices so small,
Must ever ensure satisfaction.

For the holiday times, his stock now combines,
Of clothing a boundless collection;
The great and the small, the short and the tall,
May choose from his splendid selection.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 28.

The indisposit on generally manifested for business at this
season, has been increased by some change in the weather,
which gives promise that the large supply which has been kept
out by contrary winds, will, ere long, be available
The business of the week has, therefore, been of a limited
character, without variation from the rates of our last.

The Liverpool and Wakefield markets of yesterday were flat;
and the same may be said of our's of this day. Sales of each
article are made in retail quantities only, and there is a general
disposition to await the effect of increased suppli, s.

Prices may. on the whole, be considered much the same as on
this day week.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DEC. 24.

Not quite so heavy a demand for Cotton to-day. The
sales are estimated at 5,000 bales, entirely to the trade.
Up to the present hour no speculation has been reported,
yet the tone of the market is firm and steady.

COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT.
We have had an extensive demand for Cotton during the
Week, particularly In the early part of it; and the market has
favoured holders generally by an advance of about id per lb., to
which extent we raise our quotations today. S. eculators have
token 11,2u0 bales of American, 4,( 00 Surat, and 800 Pernams ;
and exporeers l o bales of American. A fair extent I bush ess
is doing to-day, but not with the same spir t as in the early pact
of the week ; the sales (including 240 on speculation) will be
about 6.100 bales of all kinds, the market closing steadily.

WAKEFIELD CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 27:

We have only a small return of Wheat to thii day's market:
but a few samples have come from the vessels so long detained
by contrary winds. The millers, anticipating a large supply ere
long, hold off frt.m purchasing, and the business done in Wheat
is, to a fair extent, at the same prices as last week for the best
qualities ; secondary sorts rather lower, and dull sale. Barley
is in good supply; the best qualities nearly support late prices;
other sorts, Is. lower. In Beans, Peas, Oats, and Shelling, no
alterati,n.
