BY the ship Cornthian, Davis, arri.
we'd at New York On sunday. we have
received our regular files of papers to
the cath July.-Odr correspondents of
the New York Gazette, say thst Capt.
Davis, or his passage, spoke tse brig
Talisman, fron Liverpool for Boston.
from the Captain of which he obialoed
a London paper of The 95th of July;
which is one day later than our former
advices. Having been faveured with a
perusal of it, we have transcribed the
following article Of in diligence.
Account from Manchester to the 23d
represent the state of the manufactures
there as still depIorable. An idea was
gaming ground tina. negotiations in their
behalf were gong on between Sir John
Bvng and Mr. Peel. No riots ncr disor-
ders were anticipated, and the hopes of
the suffering multitude were placed up
on the negotiations with the Secretary OF
State.
The intelligence from the city of Cork
is of the most narrowing character
families were to be found which had not
tasted food for two days and two nights.
The London Sundy Times ofJuly %,
saws, 1--WE hear that great dssention
has broken out in the Cabinet between
Mr.. Peel and Mr.. Canning; the first
recommending the immediate relief of
the manufacturing Districts by pecunia-
ny aid the latter insisting on the PERM
cious nature Of the precedent. A DISCO
luton of the ministry is talked of as the
probable result
From the Liverpool albion, July "a.
The aspect of things in the manufac-
turing districts continues gloomy. Nor
can we flatter ourselves, that there will
be an early improvement in the condi-
ton of our country. The distress "a
mong the AFRICANS in the interior is un--
abated, and it is we fear likely to in
crease. Several extensive manuiactu-
rers have it is stated, resolved to limit
the time of their workmen to only four
days in the week, in consequence OF the
demand for goods being almost entirely
suspended When trade is in the de-
pressed state which this fact indicates,
tits not possible, that the thousand of
industrious men who have. for several
months past been out of work, can OBJ
tain employment to enable them to pro
vide of their own wants and those OF
their families. The prospect It must
be confessed, is sufficiently discouraging.
The bounty of the benevolent and hui
name has done much to mitigate the
su.ferings of the unfortunate poor, that
private charity is perfectly inadequate
to supply the necessaries oil all who are
at present pining under horrors little
short of restitution. Government we
are assured, are anxious to do all in their
power to mitigate the suffering OF the
poor; but the evil under which the coun-
try is Iabouring is one which, we tear,
neither kings nor governments can cure:
Ministers cannot give an impetus TO
commerce or revive trade, or impart
motion to the looms; and until com
merce is quickened, trade revived, and
the looms once more in motion, the pre-.
sent unexampled distress in the manu-
featuring districts cannot undergo any
sensible diminution.
Singular faci.-Although money is a
bundant in London, such is the para
lived state of the country circulation
that at provincial bank only 90 miles
from London, an order to one ofthe first
bankers IN Lombard street for $4,000
payable at three days sight, could not
be negotiated in any shape. The BAN
ker thought it useless to offer his notes,
which would be immediately returned
upon him, and it was not worth his while
TO transact business in any other shape.
The harvest has in many parts OF the
kingdom commenced. Ii began on
Tuesday last in the neghbourhooa OF
Liverpool, BY the cutting of a field OF
wheat near Lydiate. The produce is
clean. and of good quality, but not very
abundant The harvest will become
general in another week or ten days.
The Coal trade Of the Lehigh is now
beginning to come fairly into operation
during the present season, up to the
sIst Of July, a2,s3s tons Of coal have
been transported from the mines to fh''
Iadelphia. where il meets Constant de-
n,api either for home consumption OF
exnortation TO New-fork.
