STATE OF TRADE, COMMERCE, &c

Our market for Cotton, during the past week, has worn a
healthy appearance, and, notwithstanding the somewhat un-
satisfactory news which we have received from the -United
States by the arrival of the Columbia, the same appearance
continues to animate our transactions in that article. Buyers
for consumption come freely to market, and, although the
impression generally prevails that the price of Cotton will be
low during the ensuing season, the rates of last week, espe-
cially for good samples, have been fully maintained.
The demand fur goods in the manufacturing districts has
not been lively during the last few days. The principal bu-
siness done has been for the Eastern Markets ; but the ad-
vices from that quarter, by the last arrival, are not of a very
encouraging nature. Both Cloths and Yarns are steady in
price. A disposition to sell has, however, been more gene-
rally manifested ; and although, when the spring trade shall
have set in, a more lively state of things is generally antici-
pated, no sudden or large improvement is looked for by our
manufacturers. In fact, we may almost say that such a
change is deprecated, by well-informed and judicious men,
as likely to lead only to fallacious hopes and ultimate mis-
chief.

SOUP FOR THE POOR

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

SlR,—The admirable letter of Medieu.t, on the subject of
the manufacture of soup for the poor, has attracted very
general attention. May I be permitted to inquire if any
notice has been taken of the valuable hints and suggestions
made by the writer, in the proper quarters ? _

CHRISTENING OF THE PRINCE OP WALES-

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
I perceive by the London papers that a memo-
rial is about to be presented to the Lord Mayor, requesting
him to suggest to the leading merchants and traders in the
metropolis, the propriety of keeping next Tuesday, the day
of the christening of His Royal Highness the Prince of
Wales, a holiday; may I be permitted to recommend that a
similar demonstration of loyalty he made in this town ? We
generally set the example to our neighbours in affection md
attachment to the throne, and we ought not to be behind-
hand on so important an occasion.--I am, Sir,

tioned within the limits of the borough. On my return to
Beswick, I found, much to my astonishment, that the force
which I left there to stop any body of people that might
attempt to come in that way, and in order to protect the works
of Mr. Chappell which in the forenoon were threatened by
the mob, had been reduced by the unnecessary withdrawal
of the special constables, at the direction of the magistrates,
although I had left 50 as a reserve at the Town Hall; thus
leaving exposed that part of the borough to the incursions
of those who had been holding illegal meetings during the
forenoon."

Can we do otherwise than repeat here the expression of
the Manchester Guardian, that, for all useful purposes,
the magistrates by whom such gross blunders—to call
them no worse—were perpetrated, " might just as well
have been in Liverpool as where they were ?"
As may very naturally be supposed, the letter of
Captain Sleigh, which appears, however, to have got
into the columns of the London Times, without the
authority of that officer, has acted as a sort of wet
blanket upon the gentlemen of the League, who have
lately been moving heaven and earth to wriggle out of
the dilemma, in which their conduct during the recent
disturbances has placed them. The Manchester
Guardian, in especial, is highly wroth, and threatens
the worthy Captain with dismissal, and we know not
what beside, reminding him that the period is at hand
when the borough magistracy will assume a more ab-
solute control over his actions than they are able to do
under existing circumstances. Possibly this may be
the case, and possibly not. The government of Great
Britain may be of a different opinion from that of
the_Manchester Guardian, with respect to the amount
of responsibility for the public peace, with which the
municipal authorities of Manchester may, with safety,
be entrusted.

THE SCOTTISH BEACONS.

" On the evening of Wednesday, when her Majesty en-
tered the Frith of Forth, the magnificent sight burst upon us
of beacon-fires lighted on all the conspicuous Scottish hills,
and was imposing iu the extreme.
" On the coast around, in East Lothian, in Mid-Lothian,
in Linlithgow, in Fife, and Clackmannan, bonfires blazed on
all the remarkable heights, all announcing the cordial wel-
come that awaited her 'Majesty from Scotland and fier Scot-
tish subjects; while in Edinburgh, the summit of Arthur's
seat seemed a blaze of fire, shedding a flood of light over the
surrounding heights and the valley below, and giving an
aspect of wild grandeur to all its romantic scenery.
" It has fallen to my lot to witness beautiful illuminations
in various parts of the world. I have seen the cities of Rio
de Janeira, of Lima, and of Santiago, lighted up in all their
splendour; the city and all the shores of the Bay of Naples,
and even the dome of St. Peter's at Rome, but I remember
nothing that has made so deep an impression as our passage
up the Frith of Forth on this occasion."—Extract from
Narrative of an Officer on board the Rogal Squadron.

The beacon-fires are blazing high
On all the Scottish hills,
Tasselling the mantle of the sky—
Tinging the mountain rills.
What means this blaze so broad and bright,
And glorious in the gloom of night?
The fox in the far glen was stirred,
And started from his lair;
Upon her perch the mountain bird
Was wakened with the glare.
And deemed. on springing from the spray,
Her eye was dazzled with the day.
A hundred flickering fires have lent
Their splendour to the night,
And deep the ruddy firmament
Is blushing at the sight—
Where, at the sunset, all was rest
Each hill waves high its fiery crest.
Has, as of old, a southron band
Across the border sped,
And, fast accoutreing, through the land,
Do mustering warriors tread ?
And is it thus the news of war
The nation telegraphs afar ?
No bloody sign of feud or foe
Yon waving fires have given—
Like stars of peace, their rays they throw
Across the arch of heaven ;
They tell to realms that love her sway,
That Ocean's Queen is on her way.
Aye ! even now yon blazing peak*
Has caught her kindling eye,
With heaving heart and flushing cheek,
Sbe knows Dun-Edin nigh ;
Here Holyrood throws back the glow—
Forth spreads and sparkles far below.
A nation's pulse is beating fast,
And throbbing high for thee;
Its eye is strained to catch thy mast
Appearing on the sea—
And many a loving heart and hand
Shall welcome thee to Scottish land.
O Lord ! by thee do princes reign—
Their power, their pride are thine!
Let thy strong arm our Queen sustain,
And long preserve her line !
0, King of kings ! her foes repel !
From force, from falsehood, shield her well!

'flable, or whether his present position is one which
any one versed in the trade, will be inclined to agree to.
The real fact is—and any corn-merchant will bear
us out in the statement—that the fall in wheat, since
the entry of this large quantity of foreign produce,
although upon the face of-the above table, it appears
to be only three to four shillings per quarter, is at the
least 30 per cent. Take, for example, the article
Classed in our corn circulars as " Stettin wheat," the
quality of which is very uniform ; and we find that on
the 28th of April, the date of the first return in the
table, it was worth 9s. 4d. to 9s. 7d. per bushel; and
that in the last week of August its price was reduced
to 7s. 6d. to 7s. 9d., or nearly 15s. per quarter. Upon
all other wheats, quality, taken into consideration, a
similar reduction has taken place. Turn to the prices
of town-made and other flour, and the same fact is
fully established ; viz., that, as the result of the new
corn-law and the recent harvest, we have the great
staple of life at a very material reduction to the con-
sumer.

CAPTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS.

GEORGE CARLYLE, 38, Bold-street, Agent for Liverpool.
J. H. PYER, Confectioner, 32, Great Homer-street, for

Everton and Kirkdale.
APTAIN PIDDING'S TEAS consist of one kind only
k.) of Black and one of Green. The Black is a mixture of
Forty different kinds of rare Black Teas, remarkable for
their great strength, delicious flavour, and natural aroma.
This natural aroma of the Tea being completely preserved in
the Packages in which it is imported. The Green is Small
Leaf Gunpowder Tea of the finest kind, and is grown only
on one Estate.

Captain PIDDING, who has made eight voyages to China,
completed arrangements when last at Canton, securing to
himself the exclusive importation of these particular Teas.
Extract from Dr. Siymond's Lecture on Captain Pidding's
Tea before the Med. Bot. Society.
" This particular Tea has been very much and very de-
servedly prised, and has now become a Standard Tea in this
Country."
(From Dr. James Johnson, MD., Physician to his late
Majesty, &c.)
" Suffolk-place, Pall Mall, London.
" Sir,—Ever since your 'Pea was first introduced, myself
and family have used it ; indeed, only it, and we have no
hesitation in giving it the preference to all others.
" Yours, &c., 6` JAMES JOHNSON, M.D.
" To Captain Pidding."
CAPTAIN PIDDING'S Teas were formerly sold under
the title of " Howqua's Mixture," and " Howqua's
Small Leaf Gunpowder" ; but hundreds of Grocers,
anxious to profit by the celebrity of tea which he alone
imports, have given the same title to rubbish of their own,
so that there is now scarce one but has his " Howqua's,"
" Mowqua's," " Saoqua's," or some other spurious mixture.
Against such imposition, the only security is
" CAPTAIN PIDDING'S NAME."
This they have not yet forged, and his signature is on every
really genuine package.
Sold in Chinese Catty packages, containing one pound and
one-third, nett of Tea, exclusive of lead and paper,—the
Black, at the rate of 6s. 4d. per lb. ; the Gunpowder at 9s.
per lb. • Half and Quarter Catties in proportion. A Quarter
Catty of Black, charged 2s. 2d., will go as far as half a pound
of the commonest Tea, if made according to Capt. Pidding's
directions given on each package.

in this company took place at the London Tavern, and was
most numerously attended. Among the parties present were
the leading merchants connected with the West India colo-

appeared to be manifested to see what course the proceedings
would take, since the misfortunes which have attended the
operations of the company have been a fertile topic of discus-
