MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, Nov. 9.

Owing to a continuance of contrary winds, imports from
Ireland to Liverpool and Runcorn are small; but to Wakefield,
there is a good arrival of English Wheat, with a fair supply of
other articles.

The trade, during the week, has been steady, with a fair con
sumptive demand, at fall prices.
Liverpool was firm yesterday ; but at Wakefield, where wan-
of supply is not felt, the price of Wheat was ra her lower.
At our market this day, Wheat and Flour, without being in
brisk demand, are steady at former rates, with a moderate sale
for both. For Oats and Oatmeal, h gher pric:s are asked; but
any advane is complied with so unwillingly, and by needy
purchasers only, that the business actually done is limited.
Old and New English Beans are scarce, and 2s per quarter
dearer : Egyptians also are Is per 45,) lbs higher. Malt, of fine
quality, is saleable at the late prices; secondary qualities sels
slowly.

HULL CORN MARKET, Nov. 5.

We have a fair show of English Wheat to-day, the best runs
of which were saleable at about previous rates ; second qualities
very difficult to quit at a small redaction. In Barley not mueh
doing, but former rates were supported. Oats and Beans fully
as dear, the latter in some cases is higher. No change in other
articles.

IRELAND,

92, BOLD- STREET,
BEGS most respectfully to inform the Nobility and
Ladies of Liverpool and the Vicinity that he has
always ready for inspection one of the
LARGEST RETAIL STOCK OF FURS
to be found either in or out of the Metropolis, (certainly
the most select,) and being solely his own Manufacture—
a great advantage over the mere seller—he is in a position
to answer for every article sold. At the present moment,
he has several

NEW DESIGNS,
to which he respectfully invites an inspection. Many
imitations having been attempted, they will, in conse-
quence, not be exhibited in the windows of his Esta-
blishment. The advantage he possesses of having an
agent
ALWAYS IN THE LONDON MARKETS,
not only enables him to have the NEWEST FASHIONS,
but to purchase on most advantageous terms, consequently
he can offer Fu RS at such prices as ne fearlessly asserts
will defy competition. The alterations and repairs will
be executed, as heretofore, by London Workmen.

THE TRACY PEERAGE. —NOVEL INQUIRY.—On
Monday last an inquiry was held at Castlebrack church-
yard, before certain magistrates, relative to the genuine-
ness of the tombstone by which Mr. James Tracy proves
his title to this long-disputed peerage, and which the
House of Lords decided in his favour, subject to their
proving this stone. A great number of respectable peo-
ple attended to give evidence. Mr. John Rafter, stone-
cutter and builder, proved that the four pieces of stone
produced must hare originally been in one, they all cor-
responding with the grain, breaks, and letters, when laid
together closely to form one stone ; and it was his opinion
that the said stone was the original one belonging to the
family, placed there as a tombstone, in which other wit-
nesses also concurred, and signed declarations to that
effect.—Leinster Express.
THE LAW OF MORTMAIN.—The report of the commit-
tee of the House of Commons on the law of mortmain,
has been issued, and the fol:owing is their opinion :
" Although your committee do not feel authorised by the
terms of reference to report in favour of any specific al-
terations of the laws of mortmain. they feel bound to state,
from an attentive consideration of the evidence submitted
to them by witnesses whose means of information and
authority must beheld to be great, that the operation of
the law is most unsatisfactory, leads to doubt, expense,
uncertainty, and litigation, and frequently defeats good
and pious purposes, which the present aspect of the coun-
try would induce all men to wish fulfilled; while, from the
existing facilities for evasion, they cannot be regarded as
serving the main purpose for which they are supposed to
be maintained, by securing the heir from the unexpected
alienation of property to which he might reasonably have I
hoped to succeed."

ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT, begs leave most
respectfully to return his sincere thanks to the Gentlemen

self of the present opportunity to apprise his Customers,

commend, and many of his Customers, who have experi-
enced its durability and superiority, can corroborate the
same. No work is given out in his Establishment except

engaged an experienced Workman, be promises the Pub-
lic that punctuality shall be his motto.
P.S.—J. McG. asks for an inspection of a new make,
which he has succeeded in carrying into effect, not at-
tempted by any other Bootmaker in Liverpool, and com-

PEGSto invite universal attention to his
respectfnly
unrivalled MELAINABAPHE, or LIQUID
HAIR-DYE, which, in a few moments, changes Gray
Hair to a beautiful Black. Unwilling to lower the value
of this unequalled preparation by having reccurse to the
puffing system, G. E. begs but a trial of this incomparable
Dye, which, he is confident, will be found to equal, if not
excel, any of its competitors. Amongst the delicious
novelties of his Laboratory, he can recommend The
Restorative B !Isom for weak Hair, which, if once used,
must retain the first position at the Toilet in preference
to the numerous grosser compounds of the present day.
He is also happy in being enabled to offer his choice and
fragrant perfumes, The New Essence of Verbena, and
The Prince Alfred's Nursery Boquet.

MANTLES AND SHAWLS.

JOHN CRIPPS, in announcing his return from Paris
and London, and the arrival of the

WINTER FASHIONS,

SHAWLS, MANTLES, TARTANS, &c.,
Begs leave to offer his sincere thanks to his Friends and
the Public for the increasingly liberal patronage bestowed
upon him since the dissolution of the late Partnership.
The great augmentation of his returns (being more than
double those of the corresponding period of any former
year) is doubtlessly attributable to the superior arrange-
ments lately effected in his Establialmielif;Goods are sold
for a much smaller profit ;(ereater care, and, he flatters
himself, better taste and gment, are displayed in the
selection of each art' , the price of each article is marked
in plain figures, an everything done to gain the confidence
of the Purchaser. _ _

DESIDERATUM SUPPLIED.
IMPORTANT TO BREAD CONSUMERS.

GIBBONS continues to Manufacture his far-famed
e LOAF-BREAD on the same principles so success-
fully practised by him in Edinburgh, and so much recom-
mended by the Medical Faculty for Invalids, on account
of its entire freeness from acidity.

R. G. takes this opportunity of thanking his numerous
Customers for their past and continued support, and begs
to acquaint them, that, preparatory for the Christmas
Festivities, he has now commenced to bake his Scotch
Bun, Shortbread, Pitcaithly Bannocks, and other Cakes,
including the much admired ROYAL ATHOL CAKE.
R. G. earnestly solicits early application for the above,
to prevent the same diswetiintment which occurred last
year.
R. G. being ently engaged with extensive orders for
foreign co❑ les, this is a favourable opportunity for
procuring these various Cakes made to order, especially
for long voyages, packed in Tin Cases, and warranted to
keep in any climate.

MANTLES.

A choice of above one hundred shapes, including the
Polka, Polka Pelisse, Duchesse de Nemours, Abyssinian
Cardinal, Cassovika Polish Tunic, Marquise, &c. &c., in
Velvet, Satin, Poult de Sole, Watered Ducape, Cashmere,
and Tartan, with every description of warm Travelling
Cloak, and a lot left from last year, at 17s. 6d., worth
30s.

N.B. A main feature in the new arrangement, and on•
which will be obvious to every Purchaser is, that at this
Establishment Mantles and Cloaks may be purchased at
a much lower rate than would have to be paid if Ladies
bought their own Materials, and had them made up them-
selves ; besides which, the great advantage is afforded
them of selecting from above a hundred different shapes
and styles. To large Families, Schools, &c. this is of no
little importance.

PUBLIC NOTICE.

HER Msjesty's Commissioners of Woods, Forests, and
Land Revenues, having taken Mr. GRIMSTONE'S
extensive premises in Broad-street, Mr. G. has, at a very
considerable expense, prepared very commodious pre-
mises, 434, Oxford-street, London, at which place he
earnestly solicits a continuance of the kind support with
which he has been favoured by the Nobility and Public
generally. Mr. Grimstone's commercial intercourse
enables him to lend his foreign goods in the most genuine
condition, and he pledges himself to continue the manu-
facture of every article in its pure and pristine state.
Testimonials of undoubted authority, from the highest
characters, proving the efficacy of his-EYE SNUFF, may
be seen at his Warehouse asiitove, and in the sixth
edition of his Almanac, 1844.—GRIMSTONE'S EYE
SNUFF.—A few of the many thousand Testimonials of
Sight Restored and Deafness Cared :
Copy of a Letter.
39, erby-street, Hatton-garden, Dec. 26, 1542.
Sir,—l was from my childhood afflicted with dimness of sight,
and as I advanced in years became almost blind. My husband
being a medical practitioner, every oculist of any eminence was
consulted, but unfortunately without any real rel►ef. I was re-
commended by one of 'my friends, although a member of the
profession, who said he had taken it for a few months with the
happiest result : he being relieved from inflammation after long
suffering, induced me to give it a trial. I have taken four as 4d
canisters, and shall continue to use it to the end of my days, for
I have derived so much benefit from using it, that I can now
real without the assistance of any kind of eye glasses. I shall
feel happy at any time to acknowledge the great cure your Eye
Snuff has made in my case. Make what use you may please of
this testimony, and remember, I am in my seventieth year, and
can read and do needlework much better than I could for the
last forty years, without ai:y glasses.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,

RAILWAY INTELLICEACE.

The West Yorkshire, Leeds and Thirsk, and Leeds
and Dewsbury railway projects are about to be amalga-
mated. The proposed railway from Bolton Percy to
Knaresborough and Harrogate is abandoned.
SHIPLEY AND COLNE RAILWAY.--:-Public notice has
been given of a meeting of the shareholders in the Leeds
and Bradford Railway Company, to be -held at Leeds on
the 20th instant, to consider the propriety of applying for
an act in the next session of parliament, to make a railway
from the company's line at Shipley, near Bradford, to
Colne' in Lancashire, with a branch railway from Keigh-
ley to Haworth.

The Great Western Company have launched a new pro-
ject. inconsequenceof the Hereford Company having deter-
mined to walk alone, the Great Western have given notice
of their intention to apply to parliament for a line to Ross
and Hereford, with a branch to Monmouth. This scheme
has taken many people by surprise. Its construction would
involve the necessity of making two bridges over the Severn.
THE QUEEN V. THE MANCHESTER AND LIVERPOOL
•RAILWAY COMPANY.—This was an indictment against
the defendants for a nuisance, for obstructing the public
highway in New Bailey-street, Salford, by the erection in
the carriage way of that street of four pillars, on which
they had erected a bridge, over which they had carried a
portion of their railway. The case was tried at Liver-
pool, before Mr. Justice Cresswell, and a verdict passed
for the crown. The affair is to be turned into a special
case, for the opinion of the court.
THE LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER AND NORTH
UNION RAILWAYS.—At a meeting, in Liverpool, on
Monday, an amalgamation of these railways was agreed
upon. The North Union £lOO stock to be equal to £75
of the Liverpool and Manchester. This amalgamation
has caused the North Union shares to rise considerably.
According to the new arrangement, when the dividend
declared by the joint companies shall be 9 per cent., the
original North Union shareholders will receive 7 per
cent. on their paid-up capital, and the holders of Bolton
stock 4 per cent. When the dividend shall be 10, e 9 and
41. As one advantage of the amalgamation, a e hear it
stated, that the trains to Preston will, in a short time,
be worked through, by which the delay which has hitherto
frequently occurred at Parkside will be avoided. This
will be a great convenience to passengers. An amalga-
mation with the Grand Junction Company is likely to
take place shortly.

AND CALEDONIAN RAILWAY.

The actual distances have been already stated in various
Reports now before the Public. But it is essential to a
fair comparison of the Line that an allowance, on the
principles laid down by the Royal Commissioners in 1841,
should be made for the gradients on each line.
From the Report of the Commissioners, it appears that
(1.) The summits of the two lines above the sea are
Caledonian Line
Glasgow, Dumfries, and Carlisle Line 600 feet.

FURS

AT PRICES THAT CANNOT BE EQUALLED,
(When Quality is consulted,)
BY ANY OTHER HOUSE IN THE KINGDOM.
The Oregon or Columbia River districts produce a
greater variety of Furs than any other in America. Sid-
ney Hall, Esq., when treating of zoology, in his able
introduction to Black's General Atlas, says of this dis-
trict—" Its most distinguished characteristic is the number
of its Rodentia, amounting to no less than 53 well ascer-
tained species." The skins of all of which are of excellent
quality.
As this House has only been recently opened, it must
be obvious to the public that their made-up Furs are all
OF THE LATEST STYLES OF FASHION.
