peculiar—to its discredit be it spoken—to the reformed par-

To a stranger who had never before been present on such
an occasion, the scene of Friday night must have been one
which is likely not soon to be wiped from memory. Picture,

!atter, to yourself, the fifth night of a dull debate,—and no-
aing can be conceived duller than a debate, in which mem-
er after member gets up to let off set speeches, the produce
f the parliamentary interregnum, smelling villainously of
allow, oil, and other appurtenances of midnight study. One

is drowsy and wearied ; another half is inn

patient of the farce which is going on. In such a state was

TO MERCHANTS, BROKERS, &c,

The largely increased and most respectable circulation
which the Tuesday's Edition of the LIVERPOOL
STANDARD has now obtained amongst the mercantile
body in Manchester affords its proprietors the gratify-
ing power of urging this, amongst the other undeniable
claims which it possesses, upon the favor of that portion
of the mercantile community of Liverpool who desire to
bring their advertisements before the notice of buyers in
the neighbouring manufacturing districts. In most of
the surrounding towns of Lancashire the circulation of
the STANDARD is steadily increasing. In Manchester,
however, the centre of the manufacturing district, our
publication of Tuesday—occurring upon the most im-
portant market day of the Cotton Trade, when its
Exchange and Hotels are thronged with country manu-
facturers, spinners, and calico printers—is firmly es-
tablished in circulation, and is perused with increased
and increasing interest.

Under these encouraging circumstances, we trust to
receive an increased measure of support from the mer-
chants and brokers of the town generally ; and it affords
us great pleasure to assure those of our friends amongst
those classes, who have hitherto bestowed their adver-
tising favours liberally upon us, of our increased ability
to do justice to the interests committed to their care.

Ide St. Etienne gives

an account of a battle between the bulldog of a butcher and a

small monkey, belonging to a travelling showman, for a
wager between the owners, one of the conditions of the
wager being that the monkey should be armed with a short
staff. The monkey went to work so skilfully, and laid his
staff so lustily over the head of his ferocious antagonist, that
if the showman had not called him off, on the butcher ac-
knowledging that he had lost the wager, the dog would have
been killed.

slander. We certainly could get more labour than we at
present possess, were we to pay for it, but would this be either
honest or wise? Enough, however such barefaced hostility
must ever find its own antidote."

The following paragraph is from the same number of the
nnaica Standard :—" Agriculture and commerce proceed
>wly on the path of improvement; we trust, and judging
ma circumstances, would say—surely. In the former,
ery effort is at all events devoted by the leading parties

,ers from Demerara are the Guiana Times of the
6th January, and the Guiana Herald from the 3d
January. The Herald of the sth ult. contains
lestruction by fire of ".all the eaten-
...egass Logies of Plantation Enterprise," on the east
- of Demerara. Little doubt was entertained that it
the work of an incendiary. Another fire had also taken
,lace on Plantatio❑ Lowlands, also on the east coast, and
this also had every attendant circumstance of having been
committed by an incendiary. The local government had
taken steps to check this alarmingly increasing evil, and in-
structions had been issued by the Governor to the High She-
riff and the Inspector-General of Police, to proceed to the
plantation, and institute a searching inquiry into all the par-

to suffi

ticulars connected with the fire.
Attention is directed by the Guiana Times of the 6thiinst.
to what it calls " a very serious matter," which is, that a
paper has been discovered "purporting to'be written
by Mr.
Wolseley, as circuit stipendiary magistrate, about the period
of the strike," which is said to run to this effect, " that the
planters have an indubitable right to eject the labourers from
their cottages, but that, when ejectment suits are brought,
Captain Allen must adjourn his court from day to day, and
thus worry the planters out."
The Court of Policy met on the 10th ult. On the 11th

FOREIGN BRANDY DISTILLERY,

DALE or BROWN BRANDY, in any quantity not less
than Two Gslions, of THE HIGHEST LEGAL STRENGTH,
at 18s. per Gallon, with a liberal allowance to the trade.

H I SLOP WARNER and COMPANY, after a residence
of nearly twenty years in France, where they acquired the
whole process of Brandy Making, from the most eminent
Distillers of Cognac, Rochelle, and Montpelier, beg distinctly
to announce, that the article they offer to the Public bears no
resemblance whatever (except, perhaps, in colour) to any of
the British Brandies hitherto made in imitation of the
French.

H. WARNER and Co.'s BRANDY bears mixing with
boiling water, and will stand every other test to which Fo-
reign Brandy may be subjected, being purer and better than
seven-tenths of the Brandy imported into this country,
while its flavour has deceived many of the best judges in the
foreign trade.

H W. and Co. are fully sensible of the prejudice in fa-
vour of the Article imported direct from France, a feeling
which, however general, they could speedily remove, were
they permitted to divulge the principles which have cost
them so many years of arduous labour and expense, in a
foreign land, to acquire ; this, however, the Public cannot
expect from them, but they pledge themselves that their pro-
cess is, in all respects, the same as that which is adopted and
approved by the most eminent Distillers and Rectifiers on
the Continent, and that their Brandy wants age alone to
render it equal to any French Brandy, with the exception of
the real Cognac, which few only have been fortunate enough
to taste, and scarcely any to possess.
H. WARNER and Co. invite the Trade and the Public in
general to taste and test their Brandies, from their Store
Vats at the Distillery, and to judge for themselves.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARIiET, FEBRUARY 21

With a change in the weather we havehad a good deal-of
rain yesterday and today, but the wind continuing in the
same adverse quarter, very few vessels have arrived he►e
since Friday ; the fresh supplies of Grain are therefore un-
important, and of Flour only moderate, but of Oatmeal
rather liberal, the two last named articles having been con-
veyed chiefly by steamers.

The indifferent state of the surrounding markets towards
the close of last week, and similar accounts received from
London this morning, serve, in addition to the causes no-
ticed in the preceding report, to render the trade at our
Corn Exchange to-day wholly unsusceptible of amendment.
Upon a very slow, limited, retail demand merely, all de-
scriptions of English, Irish, and foreign Wheats were offered,
with little effect, at a decline of ld., and in some instances
2d. per 701bs. below the rates of this day week was accepted.
English and Irish Flour was in fair request, the former at
ls., and the latter at 6d. per sack abatement; whilst States
and Canadian nearly maintained late prices.
Barley and Malt, although taken off less freely, remained
steady in value. Beans and Pease continued to rule in the
same dull state as for some time past.
Oats, although good qualities are still very scarce, ap-
peared to attract little notice, and barely sustained former
prices ; Oatmeal, at the same time, moving sparingly into
the hands of consumers, at a reduction of 6d. per 240 lbs.

FERTILITY OF THE FRENCH SOIL.—M. Moreau de
Jonnes has published a work on the culture of corn in
France, from which we extract the following details :—" Out
of 55 millions of hectares the cultivation of wheat occupies
the tenth part or 5,500,000 hectares, which represent the
two-fifths of the whole land in cultivation. In Spain only,
2,800,000 hectares are under wheat, and in Prussia 417,000.
The quantity of seed used in France for the above quantity
of land exceeds 41 millions of hectolitres. The annual crop
being about 60 millions, the produce is in the proportion of
61 to 1, so that 59 millions of hectrolites remain for consump-
tion. The following fact proves the great fertility of the
French soil :—France, Great Britain, Sweden, Poland,
Prussia, Holland, Belgium, and Spain produce altogether
bout 137 millions of hectolitres of wheat, and in this amount
e, ^ is down for 70 millions. In France the
i average an-
ption of wheat for each inhabitant s 210 litres ;
at lyttain, 163; in Spain,
127; in Holland, 57 ; in (
i
,36; in Poland, 25 ;in Sweden, 8. The total value ,
prices in the country parts where grown' and 1,400,000,000 f.
annual crop in France is 1,100,000,000 f., taking the France ...
Holland

Council. The inspection, too, must he renewed from

time to time, otherwise the registration and certificate
would become cdmparatively useless. The system, we
think, would be eventually disregarded ; bnt if it is to
he commenced at all, we do not see why it should not
extend to Private dwelling-houses as ',well as to ware-
houses ; and we have reasonable grounds for thinking
so. We wait, however, to see the language of the
clause on this point. The licensing of porters, if the
object is to prevent pilferage, will
tive for good, for it will never supersede the necessit)
for vigilance on the part of the employer, whilst in the
event of a felony, it will not, of itself, aid in the proof.
Other objections to it might be advanced, but we re-
serve them till we see the print of the bill. As to mak-
ing the warehouse porters liable to punishment as for a
misdemeanour, for any " wilful act," or " negligent
omission," we can only say that we regard the proposal
for the establishment of such a power with no inconsi-
derable degree of jealousy.
The town is deeply and permanently interested in
this matter. Premiums of insurance have risen enor

imply inopera-

tnously in consequence of the existing state of things,
(and we fear there is little hope of their ever being
lower,) whilst profits on imported produce have dimi-
nished; so that practical measures of some kind are
Indispensable, if the character of the port is to be sus-
tained. It is visionary, to say the least of it, to main-
tain that this is only a question between the merchants
and the insurance offices. We might as well contend
that any capital offence is only a matter between the
criminal and his victim. The public are as much in-
terested in the one as in the other ; and in both cases
a serious obligation is owing to society. In conclusion,
let it be remembered that the practical measures sug-
gested by the public bodies referred to, do not neces-
sarily, and they ought not absolutely, excite contenti-
ous feelings ; and therefore we hope that in the full
discussion which they must undergo, political parti-
zanship will be unanimously waived in consideration
'of the grand object to be promoted—THE PROSPE-
RITY OF THE TOWN AND PORT OF LIVERPOOL.
