WOOLLEN GOODS.

Wand T. MORRIS invite especial attention to
• their present STOCK of WOOLLEN GOODS, which
is now replete.
The immense quantity and variety has already astonished
some of the largest buyers, as well as manufacturers.
Our T. MORRIS has, within the last few weeks, visited all the
principal Markets, and purchased nearly Twenty Thousand
Pounds' worth of Goons, many large lots of which can be sold
TWENTY PER CENT. below the manufacturers' prices.
It would be endless to enumerate all, but they\ wish to call
particular attention to about
Sixty Pieces WOOL BLACK and RIFLE GREEN SUPER-
FINES, from 98. to 145., which are about 4s. below the regular
price.
200 to 300 Pieces of PILOT CLOTHS and BEAVERS. These
are perfectly sound goods and fast colours, chieflly manufac-
tured expressly for them.
150 to 200 Scotch TWEEDS, the newest styles, and all shrunk.
An elegant assortment of rich Velvet, Satin, and Plush
WAISTCOATINGS.

Several lots of West of England Fancy DOESKINS, from Is.
to 2s. per yard below the manufacturers' prices. In short,
W. and T. M. believe they can venture to announce with
truth, that their present Stock is not only. the largest and com-
prises the greatest variety of any House in Liverpool, but that
no Woollen House in England can offer to WHOLESALE
JiluvEas a better and more extensive selection, or greater ad-
vantages in prices.

THE DOCKS AND PORT OF BRISTOL.

We had some remarks recently upon the position of
the Docks of Bristol, as compared with those of Liver-
pool, in which a reduction of the charges in the former
were urged as absolutely necessary to prevent the total
abstraction of that portion of the trade of the port which
was not merely loci!. We have now before us a report
of a meeting, held in Bristol this day week, for the pur-
pose of making an effort to stay the rapidly declining
condition of that town, arising from such extravagant
charges, which, in our opinion, holds out little expecta-
tion of any very great competition to arise from our
neighbour in the Bristol channel.
Tt.e result of this complication of interests is, for the
Bristolians, sufficiently distressing. Their port is
branded before the commercial world as the dearest one
in the kingdom. Charters for British ports already in-
clude the proviso " for any port in Great Britain, except
the port of Bristol." Merchants are closing their es-
tablishments, and removing to more favoured ports.
The Great Western Company have been compelled to
send their vessels round to Liverpool. The sugar trade
is leaving the port ; and the only step conceived to be
effectual in repairing all these evils is to free it altogether.
But which of the parties is to buy up the other two?
The difficulty of deciding this pertinent question seems to
have struck the meeting, which separated after declaring
that it was "expedient to free the port of Bristol from all
charges on goods and shipping, except," &c.; that an as-
sociation should be formed with the magnificent title of
the " Bristol Frce Port Association" ; and that the inha-
bitants of Bristol and the neighbourhood be admitted
members on enrolling their names ! We doubt if this
" Free Port Association " will have the luck of the
League.
It seems that it is not altogether the dock dues of
Bristol that impede, by their extravagance, the commerce
of the port. There are town dues to deal with as well,
which form a material item in the cost of an importation
into Bristol. There is, moreover, a " Society of Mer-
chants," who have exclusive privileges. Ilere are three
bodies—the dock-owners, the corporation, as the owners
of the town dues, and the society of merchants—all of
whom must come to an understanding before any mate-
rial reduction can be made. In the meantime, one party
waits upon another; one party argues, let the other re-
duce, and there is the more scope for our exactions.
Under these circumstances, the effort to make Bristol a
" free port"—for that is what is attempted—seems to us
hopeless.

REI IhF IN KERRY.—The Kerry Evening Past says: I

he good

work goes

The landlords of Kerry at e discharging nobly the duties
of their high position. To relieve the distress of their
destitute fellow-countrymen, they are taxing their pro-
perties with a liberal—we might almost say rninous—
m, hand. A half-barony in this county, (North Dunker
his ron ) 3 ,t X 6.0110

.n, valued a. per per annum, taxes itself with
£l2,ooo—the fourth of the Government grant for all Ire-
land. Already have we announced the granting by the
magistrates and cessmers of .4:21,000 at Cahircivern, for
the barony of Iveragh ; and of £12.000 in the north half.
barony of Dunkerron. We have this day to add to that
list £22,000 granted on Wednesday last in Liatowel, for
Iriaghticonnor ; and £30,000 on Thursday, at O'Dorney,
for Clanmaurice.

THE NAVAL RETIREMENT.—In the scheme promul-
gated on the 31st of August by the present Board of
Admiralty, it was intimated that officers not in Eu-
rope, who might be desirous of accepting the retire-
ment, would not be excluded in consequence of their
letters not reaching England before the Ist inst., as
a reasonable time would be allowed for such appli-
cations. Although the number fixed as the retired
lißt (200) has, we believe, within a very few, been corn-

pleted, the Board, acting with becoming good faith, have
extended the period during which officers may intimate
their desire of accepting the retirement to the Ist of Nov.;
the retired pay commencing from the Ist of October, as
originally intended; The scheme includes officers of 50

rock, they did not see me, bnt waddled about, sometimes
close to me : only now and then as they crossed my track

they showed a slight uneasiness, smelling the ground, and

to be the mother of the rest, stood motionless for a

In trapping other vermin in tk. - we
constantly caught badgers—sometimes several were found
in the traps; I always regretted this, as my keeper was
most unwilling to spare their lives, and I fancy seldom did
so. His arguments were tolerably cogent, I must confess.
When I tried to persuade him that they were quite harm-
less, he answered me by asking, " Then why, sir, have
they got such teeth, if they don't live, like a dog or fox,
on flesh I—and why do they get caught so often in traps
baited by rabbits ?" I could not but admit that they had
most carnivorous-looking teeth, and well adapted to act
on the offensive as well as defensive, or to crunch the
bones of any young hare, rabbit, or pheasant that came in
their way."— Wild Sports and Natural History of the
