LIVERPOOL WOOL SALES.-SETT. 14.

(From the Circular of Messrs. Dacron and Hance.)
GENTLEMEN,—The Public Sales of Colonial and Fo-
reign Wool, which have continued daily from Wednesday
till this afternoon, were fully attended. The general con-
dition of the Australian Wools was excellent, and the
competition, we think, increased daily, though no positive
advance of price was extracted from the several claimants
for each lot, when knocked down.
We quote prices at full London rates, (7th August
sales) particularly on best descriptions.
Prices of Foreign Wools we consider a shade lower,
with the exception of the best qualities of East 'mils,
which maintained full rates.
The Sale of Low Foreign Wool this morning was flit,
and a good many lots were withdrawn, the offers being,
in some instances, much below the limits of owners.
Business in the Manufacturing districts, however, coo;
ti noes steady and most extensive ; which the security 01
the Harvest and consequent demand for Home Goods,
will most probably render permanent for the next two
months.

REPEAL RENT.—The amount of rent announced on
Monday for the previous week was £575, being the least
amount collected since the incarceration of the conspira-
tors.

SIR W. NOTT.—This gallant general made a triumphant
entry into his native town, Carmarthen, on Wednesday'
when he was received with every possible demonstration
of enthusiasm. He is to be entertained at a grand dinner.
Miss PEEL.—Accounts received in London on Sun-
day from Drayton Manor were favourable as regards the
opinion that all danger is over, notwithstanding
recovery of Miss Peel, and her medical attendants are of
fever
remained.

_
THE GREAT BRITAIN STEAM SHIP.—The Brislos.
Mirror, of Saturday, states on urtdoubted authority that
arrangements are in progress by which this splendid steant
ship will be floated out of the harbour either in °etcher
or the early part of November.
A hundred and sixty-one private bills were passed
during the late session, and there were forty-seven otter,
private bills which did not receive the royal assent. OL
the bills that passed, forty-seven related to railwals•
Three divorce bills received the royal assent.
SERIOUS CHARGE.—An officer of marines, now sta-
tioned at Cork, Lieutenant Puddicombe, has been com-
mitted to gaol in that city, charged with having stolen 5
quantity of plate from the house of a gentleman where he
was present as a visitor at a ball. The officer states the
plate is his own.
OPERATIVE PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION.—WE ,per-
ceive that to-morrow evening a sermon will be preached;
at St. Augustine's Church by the eloquent defender or
Protestant truth, the Rev. Hugh Stowell, for the benefit
of this admirable society. We commend the object t°
our readers, and hope the society will receive the support
it so well deserves.

The maps published under the superintendence of the
Honourable Board of Ordnance are now completed 55 far
north as Pres ton. They are to be procured either in single
squares, in counties, or complete sets, from the local
agents of the board, Mr. Waring Webb, stationer, Castle-
street, Liverpool, and Messrs Simms and Dinham, sta-
tioners, Exchange-street, Manchester.

NEW MODE OF ENSURING HONEST COFFEE.-010
attention has been called to a new mode of grinding coffee,
adopted by Messrs. Hollis, Walford & Co., by which
every buyer of coffee at their shop has an opportunity of
seeing such quantity of the article as he may purchase
ground first in the berry, and ground again after passing
through a mill worked by a beautiful steam-engine. BY,
this process, even the suspicion of adulteration is guarded
against, and a pure article secured.
LITHOGRAPHED PORTRAIT OF THE REV. W. M.
FALLOON.—An excellently Lithographed Portrait of the
Rev. Incumbent of St. Johns has just been published bf
Messrs. Maclure and Co., of Castle-street, from a paint-
ing by Mr. Brownless, of which the numerous admirers
of the eloquent and excellent preacher would do well to
possess themselves. Mr. Falloon is represented as he ap-
pears in his pulpit, in one of those impressive attitudes
which he assumes in the delivery of his discourses ; and
the likeness, although not a flattered one, is good.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 16.
We have had a good supply of Beast at market to-day, but
a smaller supply of Sheep and Lambs; anything prime met
with good demand at a shade of advance in price. Beef 5d to
; Mutton 5d to : Lamb sid to Cd.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPT. 16. A
Nothing new in the Cotton market, it is dull, tame, and
insipid, almost lifeless, without any change in prices. Buyers
are mistaken when they come down to do very cheap business.
and some return to use their old stocks ; in this way the dalY
business averages 3,500 bales, some of these for exi ort.
Brazil, Egyptian, and Surat Cotton are if possible heavier than
American.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, SErr. 16!
The Butter market is very quiet; and although
nominally as last quoted; the feeling with influential holder
is to take 2s per cwt. less. Fine select Cork dairies, approved
Carlow and Waterford brands, and prime Belf,,st bring, onlY„1
retail, 765, and other descriptions ranging from 655 W ,Ja•
Buyers have the best of it in the pickled Butter; trad;,—.ed
couple of the largest importers, having entered into a slr`i,
competition, prices are down to Gds for seconds. The price
er
Cork is 68. Beef and Pork scarce, and up to 85s to sSs
t erce for the former of prime heavy quality. 68s to 75.,,,y,
per barrel for the latter. The Bacon market has become he'
and last quotations barely supported.
