We are granhed to hear that the revision Of the Criminal
Code Of Virgins, some years ago undertaken by Chapman
Johnson, Esq. and In which he had made some progress
before prorbcted III health compelled him to r~elinquish the
task, has been completed by Robert G. Scott, Esq. upon
whom the duty was devolved by the last Legislature Of
Virginia. The copy is now in the hands Of the Public
Printer, and will doubtless be eompletedin time for the &C
ton Of the Legislature, at its next session. Having had
an opportunity Of examining a few sheets Of the work, we
think we hazard nothing in saying that the arrangement,
adopted by Mr.. Scott. will be highly approved both by the
Bar aud by the people Of the State. Condensing into ono
statute ell the criminal nociments relating to a particular
elan Of offences, lsuch, for example, as fret, those against
the public; secondly, those against the person; thirdly, those
against property. sc. &c.j-ando emitting suPerluous words
with which our laws are encountered, the Code will be
condensed into a volume Of from $50 20 300 pages, and
will be remarkably constnientfo for prompt reference. Tho
completion Of ths work has long been anHiously desired
and we are sure that the uununciadon Of the fact that il
30 in the hands of the printer will be universally gratifying,
particularly TO hose who have most seriously experienced
fhe necessity Of such a compilation.

Effects Of the American TarBin Eng.
land.-Several markets have experienced
the effects Of the liberal tariff which goes
into operation in the United States on the
first of December. Iron has already adj
vanced in price, and the wOOllen manufac'
tories of Yorkshire are firm and improving
Sanitary RegulatiOns.-A public meet
Ing has been held in the British metropolis
lately, for the purpose of taking measures
to prevent the spread Of disease. Although
some contended that few cases Of AsiatiC
cholera had appeared, the general feeling
Of the meeting was opposed to the conclu.
sion.
The Ocean Race.-The steamer Cam
bria arrived out in ten days and sixteen
hours. The steamer Great Britain, which
sailed same day, arrived out in thirteen days
and ten hours. The packet ships Fidelia
and Hottenguer, have also arrived out
The Great Britain had a detention at sea
of eighteen hours, in repairing her driving
chains.
State of Trade.--At Manchester there
is no change to report in the Cloth market
since this day week. The favorable com
mercial news iIom the United States have
made the market what may be called firm
in printing cloths Of good quality. There
is an advance, but slight one. The de
mand continuing good.
At Bradford, the wool market is wei
supplied with all kinds of cOmbings, anC
the business doing is barely an average, a.
the prices are too high to induce the spin
ners to buy, except to supply immediate
wants. Our Cotton market has been &C
tive, and upon some kinds Of goods an ad
vance has been given. The Wool marke
continues inactive and prices nearly station
airy.

Patrick Henry on the propriety
Of commercial restrictions.

In Wirts life of Patrick Henry will be
found the following beautiful sentiment, in
reply to some observations Of Judge Tyler,
in relation to the propriety Of commercial
restrictions why said Patrick Henry,
should we letter commerce ! If man is
in chains, he drOOps and bows to the earth,
for his spirits are broken--lOOking sorrow
fully at his feet-but let him twist the fet-
ters from his limbs, and he will stand erect
stretching himselfand assuming the look
of proud defence. Fetter not commerce,
sir let her be as free as air-she will
range the whole creation, and return on the
wings of the four winds of heaven to bless
the land with plenty' This is a noble
sentiment and every way worthy OF its au'
thor.
The letters which Patrick Henry feared
were those imposed by high tariffs and he
was right in fearing them, for commerce
feuered, is like Jove's imperial bird con
fined, in comparison with the eagle, free al
the air il breathes. The one drooPs in con
fnement, while the other gains strength
by its bold fight and its freedom from re-
acknowledgements.
