An action for libel was tried in the Queen's Benc-der

In the Court of Queen's Bench, on Saturday, a Jn pt

In the Dublin Queen's Bench, last week, Mr. Siti/1 0
Q.C., moved for a mandamus to compel the Societym
Friends, to restore a certain Mr. Jelico to their b°,be
from which they had excluded him. The reason of
plaintiff's expulsion by the Quakers was so novel as too;
serve record. Mr. Jellico, as agent for a number of 117,ept
sons in Kilkenny and Tipperary, had paid the tithe- der
charge to the various incumbents on the properties
his control. This being a violation of the laws of the
_fog
ciety, they expelled him. Mr. Napier argued that, hed:
only the servant of another, and not actine, for hilqbe
the Quakers had no right to expel Mr. Jellico. upd
Chief Justice disagreed with Mr. Napier, on the grl9o,-
that the Society of Friends was a voluntary associati 1)9
and, therefore, the plaintiff was bound, as a member' as,
its rules. The Court had no power to issue a mand.?ls of
or compel any body, or any individual, to do anything
the sort required. Rule refused accordingly.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER.—The general aspect of our market is stlesses
of dulness. A moderate inquiry, indeed, exists for some FDor;
of goods, but it is not generally accompanied with any
tent amount of business. It is not yet possible to say freer
may be the effect upon the market of the last accounts sige:
the East, which are somewhat favourable; but there are toe'
of returning activity in some quarters where extreme usioste-
has long prevailed. Yarns continue without change, n°
rial concession having been made in prices during the "oere.
The amount of business doing is still limited. In goeds„
has been less inclination to
_give way in prices than has bee., og;
case for some time past. We cannot expect anything_ ireir'sr tie
