the words are as folk

To succour and to save !

The laurel for the warrior's brov

Fame's glorious fingers twine,
But brighter was the chaplet's glow
Heroic maid ! on thine:

-is extremely pleasing and eip:

When round her ocean-dwelling
Burst the rude tempest's blast ;
When waves, to mountains swelling,
Closed o'er the sinking mast
Forth came the SEAMAN'S DAuGHTEP
Like mercy, o'er the wave,
When misery's voice besought her

And ever to thy deathless name
Shall hallowed mern'ries
More precious than the wreath of fame—
Pure, bright, unperishing !

Thy firm but woman's spirit shrank
From the homage of the crowd,
While pale decay thy life's spring drank,
And death thy beauty bowed.
Ah ! sadly round thy ocean-home
Now mourns the murm'ring wave,
And, lulled to rest its angry foam,
Makes music o'er thy grave.

COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT

The trade continued to purchase with freedom in the early part
of the week, and although the quantity offering prevented any ad-
vance, the market was steady. Since the arrival of the Britannia,
less firmness has been exhibited, and the buyers have had a slight
advantage. Speculators have taken 2000 American, and Exporters
150 American, 50 Maranham and 200 Surat. ;60 Sea Island, 420
Stained do., 130 Surinam. 70 Maracaibo and 150 St. Domingo will
be offered by auction on Friday next.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, Nov. 18

Sugar.—The demand is limited, and the sales of B. P. are under
200 hhds., without change in price. 1100 bags Mauritius have been
sold at 61s 6d to 66s 6d for good to very fine yellow, and 3100 bags
East India Khaur at 49s per cwt. The general improvement in
descriptions has caused a corresponding movement here, and the
sales of the week amount to 470 cases and 50 brls. of Brazil,
at from 14s 6d for very low, to 17s 6d for good brown, and from Igs
for low greyish white, to 21s 3d for middling. A cargo of Porto
Rico, consisting of 370 hhds. and 50 brls., has also been sold, at
16s 3d for ordinary damp brown, to 17s 9d for middling yellow.

(FROM THE Pm:Tits.)

The weather in Trinidad has of late been highly` favourable
to the planters, and from the improved and advanced state
of-the cane-fields an increase of sugar in the next crop was
looked forward to. 1,502 emigrants had landed in Port of
Spain from thz., Ist January to the 31st July. •
The Tobago Times of the Ist October contains an adver-
tisement, to the effect that any quantity of the celebrated
manure, Guano, can be had in that island frota the estates
Telescope and Grafton-

It is stated in the St. Christopher Gazette of the 23d of
September, that the small pox has made its appearance in
Trinidad as also in British Guiana, and that in consequence
the quarantine law had just been put in force in that island.
The prospects in Dernarara, according to the statements
put forth ill the Tobago Times—are still dark and. gloomy.
It says :—" The crop •of this year, on the whole, will fall
short even of last year's. As, however, the weather is very
favourable; immediate relief to the money-market is exr
pected from the sugar to be made before Christmas. Fresh
capital is wanted for the cultivation of the estates, as much
as emigrants are. The process, long ago foreseen, will be,
that property, at its greatly depreciated value, will not be
worth the purchase. The ruin of all who became liable for
high prices, and have no other resource to fall back on,
seems to be inevitable. Those who succeed them, coraingin
upon easier terms, can afford to be content with a diminished
rate of gain. The colony may survive the shock, after the
destruction of the best part of a whole generation of spe-
culators.

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, Nov. 21

Since this day week, our Butter market has remained without
any excitement. Prices of ail descriptions are, however, fully sup-
ported. The accounts coming home from Brazil are more favour-
able, and a brisk business is rather looked, for iu Pickled Butter-
-76s is about the present currency. Superior Irish Beef and Pork
command a decided preference to foreign manufacture, particularly
with shipowners. Good American Pork is in moderate demand for
the manufacturing districts. Irish Bacon is unaltered in value,
and the consumption is pretty fair.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, NOVEMBER. 21.
The supply of things at this day's market was principally of an
inferior quality. Prime Beef and Mutton were in good demand
and our last quotations were fully supported. First class Beef Sid
to 6d; middling sd, and inferior 4d to 4ad. We had several lots o
inferior Scotch and Welch Sheep, whieh met with ready sale (ir
consequence of having a run for this low description of meat
which is generally the case at this season of the year) at 4d to 4ic
P lb. There were likewise some prime lots, and Cheviot Wethdrs
which sold at an advanced price, 6d to 61c1 lb being easll3
obtained. Beasts 1678; Sheep 3894,

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 21

The demand for Cotton has become rather limited again, which
gives the market a somewhat tame appearance. Buyers have the
advantage of more choice at last week's prices, with the tone and
feeling also in their favour. 3000 bales sold on Saturday, and 3500
bales to. day.

Hath bounteous Heaven, upon thy mind,
Bestowed superior parts,
To sway an influence o'er mankind,
And rule their hearts ?
Sad, sad will be that spirit's doom,
Whose powers are leagued with wrong,
And lure, through guilt, to endless gloom,
Th' unwary throng.

Are friends around thee ?—Many roam
Afar from all that's dear;
Go, dry amidst thy cheerful home
The stranger's tear.
And some their lonely vigils keep
Around the dying bed ;
Go, blend thy tears with those that weep
For kindred dead.

And dost thou breathe of freedom's air?
Rejoicest in her light ?
Does thy free spirit bound to share
The realm of right?
And canst thou hear unmoved the wail,
The anguish of th' oppressed?
And shall the captive's mournful tale
Not move thy breast?

But oh, if thou indeed hast known
What joys religion bath—
If Heaven's eternal light is thrown
Upon thy path :
Wilt thou not strive that all around
May lift their dying eyes,
And see, amidst the gloom profound,
That day-star rise ?

As freely we have all received,
So let us others bless ;
By grief assuaged, and want relieved,
Our thanks express;
Remembering, what we now enjoy
Is all a solemn trust,
Which Heaven requires us to employ

1-10 USE OF LORDS,-,-TuvinAr,
The Stamp Duties Assimilation Bill was read a third lime
and passed.
Lord BEAUMONT presented a petition from the Rajah of
Sattara, complaining that he had been most unjustly de-
throned. The case, he thought, was a hard one, and re-
quired explanation.
Lord FITZGERALD said that papers giving information
upon the subject had been laid before Parliament, and on
that very night there was a motion upon the subject before
the other house of Parliament.
Lord BEAUMONT said that unless some satisfactory ex-
planation were given he should feel it to be his duty to sub-
mit a motion upon the subject.
The Earl of RADNOR then moved the second reading of
the bill, which he had himself laid upon the table on a for-
mer evening, for the free importation of foreign corn. The
noble lord repeated many of the former arguments for the
repeal of the corn laws, which were replied to by
The Earl of RiroN, who moved that the bill be read a
second time that day six months.
Lord KINNAIRD supported the second reading at consi-
derable length, after which,
The Earl of RADNOR replied, and the motion for the
second reading was negatived without a division.
Their lordships then adjourned.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 5.

If possible our Market is more animated to-day than pre-
viously this week, and prices are again id. per lb. higher.
Sales reach 6,000 bales, all to the trade.
The sales of the week amount to 53,000 bales, of which
the trade have taken 40,000; remainder to speculators and
exporters.

COTTON MARKET, AUGUST S.
It affords us much pleasure to be able to continue our favourable
report of the Cotton market ; the demand seems to gather strength.
On Saturday 8000 bales were sold, and to-day fully 7000, chiefly to
the trade. Prices are gradually tightening, and though they do not
ramble as in other days, yet there is a feeling of health and con-
fidence that gives an assurance that at the bottom the foundation
is good. There was some rumour on change, that in some of the
manufacturing districts, the operatives had availed themselves of
this early opportunity to turn out for an advance of wages. This
is rather too bad, for the improvement has not gone beyond the
Manchester market, and has yet has not found its way into the
pockets of the producers, if this turn-out be general, it may cause
a temporary cheque to our advanced market.

UNNATURAL CRIME

William Saxon, labourer, of Heaton Norris, was indicted
for an offence of this description. The particulars were
unfit for publication. The proof was insufficient to convict,
and the Judge directed an acquittal. The prisoner was quite
a youth. He was defended by Mr. Wilkins. Mr. Brandt
appeared for the prosecution.
Job Valentine, 23, of Eccles, was similarly indicted. Mr.
Brandt conducted the prosecution. The jury, after a few
minutes' consideration, found the prisoner guilty. The
Judge told him that his life was forfeited, though he would
not be executed, but sent, probably, to some distant culony
for life. Death recorded.

CARNATION SHOW AT KIRKDALE

On Thursday last an exhibition, in connection with the
Everton and Kirkdale Floral and Horticultural Society, os-
tensibly for the show of carnations, but in reality for that of
all the products of the conservatory and garden took place
in the pleasure grounds behind Mr. New's hotel at Kirkdale.
The Marquee under cover of which the exhibitions have
hitherto taken place, had been greatly extended, so that the
space for promenading was much greater, and the conveni-
ences, both for the elegant display of the flowers and plants,
and the comfort of spectators considerably enhanced. The
show was remarkably well attended, and the extreme fineness
of the day brought together a full attendance of the fair and
fashionable. Mr. Skirving, with his usual liberality for-
warded a very great quantity of plants, &c. for the use of the
committee in the marquee, among which were some choice
specimens:of greenhouse plants, none of which were for com-
petition. The carnations were numerous, in full bloom, and
in great variety. The fruits were particularly choice, the
company hanging with longing looks over them and with
smiling approbation at the size and quantity which were
large. The vegetables were also very numerous ; and soma
of a most excellent kind with respect to general culinary
purposes received the warm approbation of the judges.
The fuschias, judiciously arranged at the right hand of the
Marquee, were in particularly large numbers, and were
much admired. IN e have no space to give a special
observation to any plant peculiarly worthy of notice. Mr.
Stubbs' Royal Harrnonion Band was in attendance and
kept the company alive with a many of the most fashionable
airs, &c. Great praise is due to the chairman of the meet-
ing and the committee for their attention to the company
and for the judicious manner in which everything was con-
ducted ; all was ready for view by the public at the appointed
time; the polite attention of Mr. Wm. New—the landlord
gave very general satisfation.

AfARSHALL AND OTHERS ?J. LAMB

This was an action for the recovery of money had and re-
ceived, brought by the assignees of a bankrupt, named Thorns,
who carried on business in London as a warehouseman, against
Mr. Lamb, an attorney, at Basingstone. It appeared that,
on the 15th August, 1841, Thorns committed an act of bank-
ruptcy by absenting himself with the intention of delaying his
creditors, and op the 25th he paid to the defendant £7OO for
a mortgage which the defendant had on some property in
trust for the benefit of Mrs. Thorns. The £7OO he had
raised by the sale of all the goods he had previously to the
act of bankruptcy.
The learned JUDGE instructed the jury, that the bank-
rupt had paid 'off the mortgage with £7OO, which was the
property of his creditors, and that it was a fraud upon the
creditors, not by Mr, Lamb, but by the bankrupt. The
assets of the bankrupt amounted to £3OO, whilst his debts
and liabilities were between £13,000 and £14,000.
The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiffs fur £717.
The court adjourned at a quarter to six.

CHARGE OF MURDER

Francis Brindley, aged 32, was charged with the wilful'inur
der of Alice Bradley, at Manchester. . _

The prisoner, on'heing placed at the bar and hearing the
charge against him, said, that, as.he was very poor, he could
not pay for counsel, and should feel obliged if his lordship
would appoint a barrister to defend him.
His LORDSHIP said that it was difficult for a barrister to
undertake a defence on so short a'notice, hut, perhaps, sonic
gentleman would undertake to watch the progress of the
case.

Dr. BROWN immediately intimated to his lordship that he
would undertake the prisoner's defence, and his lordship

. ,
acquiesced.
Mr. WILKINS, who was for the prosecution, then ex-
pressed his regret that the witnesses (who belonged to Man-
cheSter) had not yet arrived.

His LORDSHIP said that they might possibly be detained
by some accident ; and, as a charge of so serious a nature
could not be abandoned so immediately, he should take the
