Parliament was prorogued on the lSt OF MAY;
and the king had sent message 10 IL, doclar-
ing his intention to dissolve that body wi,hou,
delay, and order new election The canvass
for seats in the new house of commons had
commenced all over the kingdom. The kings
speech also declared, that the Burmese war had
Been terminated by treaty on highly honor
able terms: that his earnest endeavors had been

STATE OF TRApE-We are happy to be ena-
bled to say that the improvement III CONNER
ciaI affairs, which for the last few weeks we
have had the pleasure of recording, still conti-

supply. Ircalicoes, SC for instance, the stocks
in first hands have been regularly diminishing
for some weeks, and we understand several
spinning mills in the neighborhood oil this town,
which were working short time, have EXTENDED
their hours Of labor. Nevertheless, the rates
which the foreign buyers are willing to pay Tor
warns are still below saving prices. This, how
ever, now that the demand has revived, cannot
long continue TO be the case.

which is, evidently, the production OF some We
" illiterate person.
