SKIPTON.

SUNDAY, AUG. 21.—Since Tuesday we have no disposi-
tion to riot ; during Wednesday and Thursday, the unem-
ployed, from the stoppage of the factories here and in the
neighbourhood, congregated in small knots about the town,
but everything has so far passed off quietly. The Castle
has been fitted up for the soldiers, so that we are both willing
and ready to give them as warm a reception as they experi-
enced on Tuesday, when we gave them the first check to
their lawless proceedings. The special constables parade the
town during the night to guard against their malignant pri-
vate intention. Matthew Wilson, Esq., who was reported
as killed, is quite well and in daily attendance with his bro-
ther magistrates, who have been highly complimented by
Sir James Graham, for their praiseworthy and successful
exertion. J. B. Garfortb, Esq., who was so severely in-
jured by the mob, is fast recovering. The factories have
continued working, and business is assuming its usual appear-
ance. The factories at Keighley have also commenced
working, and I do not hear of the Sunday meetings which
have lately been so frequent upon the hills.

beJ•xert

—no hesitat:

`;o trimming in

tl n'yht path afid the

expedient path—no balancing between principle and
popular approbation—have marked the mayoralty of
Mr. Leigh. Upon all the important topics which
have been agitated in the Council during the past

year, he has shown himself the staunch and fearless
for the maintenance of

Apporter of the prig

which in the local leAi6la ture the voices of the burgesses
of our town have been so enerieticallv lifted up; and

he will retire from his onerous station the same
consistent and unflinching Conservative whom his
fellow-townsmen esteemed worths' of receiving the first
mark of honour in their power to bestow.
We cannot conclude this brief tribute without
noticing the kindly feeling with which Mr. Leigh has
exercised the magisterial powers conferred upon him
by his office. These powers, or at least some of them
which were acquired under the recent Improvement
Act, are of a most stringent nature, and might, in the
hands of a man of tyrannical disposition, be made
productive of great oppression. In no case, however,
has the present Mayor, whilst applying them to their
legitimate intent—the preservation of public morality
and order in the borough—allowed them to trench
severely upon individual rights or convenience; and
for the performance of this portion of his duties, the
public, and individuals as well, have abundant reason
to be satisfied with his rule.

We have never concealed our impression, not a lightly
formed one, that of all men in the British House of
Commons, Doctor Polyglot Bowring, M.P. for Bolton,
is the greatest charlatan. There are weak men in
abundance in that house—men politically dishonest--
men ready to gorge and fatten upon a misled people ;
but the man in whom all these qualities are concentrated
is this very peripatetic tool of Whig Radicalism—Dr.

Bowring himself !

But what of the Doctor now ? our readers will ask.
We wish, must he our answer, to bring before you the
latest sample of the Doctor's conduct; and to found
upon his cunningly glossed inventions a few re-
marks of our own.

At a meeting, then, of that incendiary body—the
Anti-Corn-Law League, held in Manchester on Friday
morning last, the Doctor is reported to have indulged
in the following statement. We quote from the Lon-

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, OCT. 29.

- -
A somewhat firmer feeling has charactersed the trade during
the week, and we have had a fair demand for all articles for con-
sumption at fully last week's rates.
At the Liverpool and Wakefield markets yesterday a fair extent
of business was done at rather higher prices.
Our market to-day participates in this improved feeling, which,
however, is not sufficiently active to lead to any speculative
transactions, of moment ; the business doing in Wheat being for
consumption only, at an advance of about 2d per bushel. Flour is
in fair request and the turn dearer. The shortness of supply of
Oats and Oatmeal has enabled holders to obtain an advance of 2d
per bushel on the former, and is per load on the latter, which,
however, is complied with in such limited purchases only as are
induced by present necessities. Old Malt very dull of sale;
scurcely any new offering. Beans as last quoted.

LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKET,
OCTOBER 31, 1842.
We have had a moderate arrival both from the Isle of Man and
Scotland during the last two days. To-day there has been a brisk
retail demand at the qnays from our town dealers, at fully 2d. to 3d.
advance over our late currency. The country buyers still continue
to remain inactive.
The beat description of Manx and Scotch Cups, now realizing
Is. sd. to is. 6d. per go lbs. Our neighbouring farmers have been
pretty liberal sellers of all descriptions of produce, with the excep-
tion of Potatoes, of which we have only had a scanty supply, which
has had the effect of enhancing the value of those exhibited in our
local market, as well as the quantity in dock.

For the Liverpool Standard.

A tender plant bad reared its head
Amid the storms and shower;
Around its stem the ivy clung,
Supported by its power.
This tender plant was soon remo-:ed—
The ivy feels the shock,
Then lifts its dripping, fallen stem,
And fastens on a rock.

The Lord, who knoweth well our frame,
Perhaps in mercy bore
Thy mother where she ne'er will feel
Life's stormy tempests more.

Thou, like the ivy, on the ground
Hast by this shock been thrown ;
But though an orphan now thou stand'st,
Thou art not quite alone.
Lest we to earth too fondly cling,
The Lord our friend doth take,
That we may raise our eyes to Him,
Who never will forsake.
He is the Everlasting Rock,
A shelter from the heat ;
0 ! may'st thou ever find in Him
Sure standing for thy feet!

Thy earthly parents now are gone,
But the Almighty see,
He's holding out his gracious arms,
He'll more than Father be.

RURAL SONNETS,

BY MR. J. JONES,
Author of " Regulus," " The Cathedral Bell," and other

tragedies.

SEPTEMBER.
Weave us a thousand dahlias into one,
Bold the device, and rare its radiance be,
Serve us a banquet, long before the sun
Go down, in molten rainbows, to the sea.
Velvet the lawn of fountains where 'tis spread,
Sweet with clematis every near alcove,
And let September's horn of plenty shed
Its choicest stores, to music from the grove.
Pine apples bring, and plums of various hue,
Peaches, the elixir of the solar beams,
The fruit that melts in nectar, and the dew
With which the grape, gold-green, or purple, teems.
While tints autumnal soothe us, and the breeze,
Unwoo'd on stubble lands, glides dancing through the trees.

OCTOBER.
The woods assume their robes of russet hue,
Amber'd, or bronz'd, or sanguin'd, in the sun ;
The falling leaves the moisten'd ground bestrew :
The pheasant—drops! and hunting is begun.
Again the healthy ploughmen turn the soil:
The threshers wield their cheerful-sounding flail
The thatchers crown the stack : the hedgers toil:
And weighty hives for honey-jars avail.
His early breadths the watchful farmer sows ;
Fodder and fuel swell his teeming hoard;
Their hardier flowers the gardens still disclose,
And fruits that keep—now clear'd, and pick'd, and stor'd
Cider and wine-press with their wealth o'erflow—
October ale is brew'd—and hearth-fires newly glow.

BIRKENHEAD COMMISSIONERS.

Mr. J. N. Noon asked the town-clerk whether be had
seen the notice which the commissioners of Birkenhead had
given of their intention to apply to parliament for a new bill?
In that bill they proposed to expel the representatives of the
town-council of Liverpool from their body. The notice
would be published in the Chester paper of Tuesday.
The TOWN-CLERK said he would attend to this matter.
THANKS TO THE MAYOR.
Mr. G. H. LawacNcc said the municipal year was now
terminated, and the avocations of the council for which it had
been elected were performed, and he hoped in a manner
highly satisfactory to the public. But they had one duty to
perform, and a grateful one it was—namely, to make their

acknowledgments to the chief magistrate for the manner in
which he had presided over them during his year of office.
They had to thank him for the zeal, ability, and honesty of
purpose which had characterised him throughout. His had
been a difficult position, but during the whole of the time he
had done nothing to cause him the least feeling of regret or
remorse. (hear.) It must be a satisfaction and a gratifica-
tion to him to have the assurance which the council would
bear, that he had not made one enemy from first to last.
Mr. Lawrence then proposed a cordial vote of thanks to the
Mayor for the manner in which he had discharged the ardu-
ous duties of his office.

Mr. JORDAN seconded the motion, and it was unanimously
carried.

The MAYOR, in reply, said he could not but be highly
sensible of the compliment paid to him at the end of his
career, now happily terminated. Though he had received
every assistance from the individuals by whom he was sur-
rounded, he must confess that it was not an agreeable duty
to perform—he meant so far as his own feelings were con-
cerned. The assistance which he had received had rendered
his duties as little difficult as possible ; and he assured the
council that he felt much gratitude for the feelings they had
expressed towards him.
The business of the council then terminated.

Need we go far for evidence of all these things ? Are they
not notoriously true ? Who is there that remembers not the
exclusiveness of their committees ? To be a Conservative in
those days was to be under a ban,—to be shut out even from
the fair rewards of merit, to be hopelessly excluded from all
favours. The doings of their Market Committee were a

THE MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS,

In a second edition of the STANDARD, which will be
published at half-past four, we purpose giving the
result of the municipal contests which, to-day, will
agitate the town. We have made arrangements for
giving all the occurrences of interest in every ward
up to the close of the poll, and, for this purpose, have
engaged an extra force of reporters ; and, as great
interest is naturally attached to the proceedings, we
have determined to devote to them much more than
the space usually allotted.

TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 1, 1842

The near approach of the period at which the chair
of the mayoralty is vacated affords us an opportunity,
which we embrace with pleasure, of recording our
thanks to the gentleman by whom it has this year
been occupied, for the services which he has on all
occasions freely rendered. It was a distinguishing
mark of the confidence reposed by his fellow-townsmen
in the sincerity with which he entertained the sound
and constitutional principles of Conservatism and, we
may add, Protestantism, which placed Mr. Leigh in
the enviable position of the first Conservative Mayor
since the passing of the Municipal Reform Bill.
During the whole of his year of office we cannot point
to one act or one vote by which that confidence has
been shaken. In all the stormy discussions over
which he has presided, we cannot point to one decision
or one expressim. which can have pained any member
of the Council, however opposed to him in opinions;
or left an unkindly feeling towards him in the breasts
of any section of his fellow-townsmen out of doors.
Surely it is worthy of no light praise thus to have
acquitted himself—thus to have earned respect from
men of every party, whilst adhering, with a firmness
almost unequalled, to the maintenance of his own
