HAMMERSMITH . Conviction of a Toe-tune Tiller . —James Jones , agea 22 , was charged , on Saturday , with obtaining mo-iey under false pretences . The case f . uowsil a deplorable auiount of superstition and credalitv . 3 Iary Arsling a "woman of respectable appearance , looking nearly thirty years ef age , deposed that , on the 23 rd of September last she went to the prisoner ' s bouse to consult him , hiring heard from many persons that he was a very clever fortune-fell r , and could point out to perrons those whoia any way did them aa injury . She saw tbe prisoner , an-1 told him she bad bad a little loss . He told her " I know it—it ' s liuen . " Witness told him it was not , it was moaev , amounting to 27 s . The prisoner then tola would
ier that if she couM afford to give him lus- he show her tbe person who hid t . iken it relieved in a glass . The next day she went to his house and again saw the prisoner , who asked h ? r if rile hai Sot the 10 s " Shesaid "Yes ; " and he then told her to put the money on what she considered to be a funeral yall . She put u there , and he then ordered her oat of the room . In two or three minutes the i . risomr called wr . mss back into the room , and asked her if-sue knew the party who had taken the mon * y . Cj Witness told hi : n " No ; " arid he -tHen took up ttrec knives which were in the room , and pretended that he had cat his hand with one . He then took a gliss from under the funeral pall , and putting a candle before it , asked witness if that was not the person . Witness looked at the ' g ' . ass , ar . d ' s-w tbe bead of a
rfemale in it ; but she told him she could swear to nobody . The prisoner then ashed witness if she did not know tlie wretch , and t"ld her Mr . JoiieS could do no morellr . Jones never told a lie , and shaking witness by the hand , he further said she should have tier money again on the following day . Witness had subsequently told her master about it , Who told her to take out tliewnvx-ant . Witness had never had the money back . —A young -woman who had accompanied the last witness to the prisoner ' s honse , corroboratedlier evidence . When be showed her the glass , he asked if she did not see the beautiful ettatwe who had tufceu the money , Heard the prisoner tell Arsling lo go home , and make herself quite satisfied ; that she would have her money returned to her at twelve o ' clock at night , that she would see his apparition , ami
that she must not be friglifened of a sphit . He also told them tbat he had sold himself to the Devil , that he had nimteenyears more to serve , and then he should be gone . "While they were out of the room , they heard him say three times ia an angry . tone , and with an oath , "How Ions : you are before yon come . " Witness thought be was calling the person he promised to show them . —Policeman T 135 deposed to apprehending the prisoner on the warrant . In the room in which the prisoner was he found ths cards produced in a circle on the floor . There -was a smaller circle within the first one , and within that some mould , and in the mould were the cards , and a piece of burned rag outside Item . On the outside of the ring was a mv ? Testament , and on the top of it a glass egg cut . Tbe prisoner , in answer to tbe charge , said he tvas ready to return tbe money . He had at a great ex psnse teamed the art under an eminent and learned professor , and bad practised it for four years . He had also learned die mystery of the cards , and practised palmistry
and the use of the planets , aud he was not before aware that he was liable to punishment unless he practised witchcraft . Hr . dive said , if the case hail relied a lone oa the evidence of the complainant , he would almost have doubted tbe prisoner bad pret > -nded to a knowledge he could not possess , but that doubt had been removed bjr the evidence of the second witness ; and even had it not , it would have been altogether removed by tlie prisoner s present line of defence . His offesee was a very serious one , and it appeared from the numerous letters found at bis lod 7 ings that be had been deceiving several servant jrirls , inducing them to purt with their very clothes off their backs ia order to pay hiji for the information be pretended to give them . As the case before fcim was a very bad one , and fu'ly made cut by tbe evidence , be should cnmniit the prisoner for three calendar jcaonths , with hard labour , aud if lie was again brought before him he would each tuns give him the same punishment .

A Mother seglected bt hee Soss —On Monday , Mr , XTor-ace ^ Mealyar *! , a baii-Ssier , residing in Chatham Tiace , and director of the Agricultural Cattle Insurance Company , was summoned before Aldermen Wood , and Cibhs , for the purpose of obtaining an order from them to compel him to contribute towards the support of his iHOther , now a claimant on the parish . It appeared that Sir . Meatyard ' s father died , leaving a large family unproviied for . The defendant , Mr . Horac-J Meatyard , and his brother , Charles Meatyard , a surgeon , at Stafford , agreed to join together , and support tbeir parent and brothers and sisters . The doctor , it was asserted , was to support lizs nioll . cr , while defendant was to support
the others , bmce then some uinerences had arisen between the brothers , and " neither would contribute towards the support of thiir parent , in consequence of which she was obPgea to apply to the parish of Holy Cross and St . Giles ' s , Shropshire , and at the instance ot the patish officers there the present proceedings were taken . Alderman Woo ^ l observed that whatever differences the brothers might have , still there was a moral and natural obligation whietf the defendant ought to comply with . The parish ofBcers only asked 7 s . per week , and he thought it would be much better to confer with the pitish officer ? , and come to some arr «" . geinent . The case was , however , entered into , but in const qutace of the solicitor ' s clerk not being able to prove that Mr . SXeatyard was in a position of life , end had the means of supporting his mother , it flras dismissed .

Elliott for final examination on s charge of stealing two gold watches and one silver watch , tlie property of Mr . Filliuer , a pawnbroker in K ? uning : on Koad . From tha evidence it appeared that Alexander , tbe youngest prisoner , wss in the service of Mr . Fiilm .-r , the prosecutor , as warehouse "boy , and having acces ? to the plate closet , gave the two gold watches , wh ! ch were pledges , to his brother , and when apprehended , the silver watch , also a plt-dge , was ibsnd upon him .

He alsuTsaid Sarshcll , though a native of Hampshire , aud having no claim whatever upon tbe city of London , was ^ kept as' a p . iuper for the ; lass two years at tlie City expense . The prisoner also admitted that lie himself bad been in tlie same situation , but bad gone out to work in tbe course of tlie summer . Mr . Elliott observed , that there cou ' . d be no doubt tbat the prisoner Lad conducted himself in a most improper inann r , and convicted birn in the penalty of ids ., or iu default of payment , to 14 days' imprisonment .
THEATSICAX . FBA'JiS . —EXTSAOHDIKAKT SCEXE . —On Tuesday , Mr Wm . Bro-idttood , the stage manager , and Mr . Thomas Barry , the Clown at Astle , »* s Theatre , appeared before Mr . Elliott , to answer to a charge of having assaulted Mr . Joseph Welleus , a French gentleman , oa Friday night last . Tbe complainant , who had but a very imperfect knowledge of the English language , was accompanied by Mr . Wilton , a . comedian , wlio acted as interpreter . From the statement of the complainant , it appeared that he is the owner of a Russir . ii dog , called " the dog of the Pyrenees , " and was engaged to play , with his animal , for Mr . Barry ' i benefit , at Astiey ' s Theatre , oa Friday night last . Having had but one short lehearsal with his dog on the Wednesday previous , and hearing aothingfrom Mr . Barry in the course of Friday eveninc ,
he concluded that bis services , as well as tiiose of his dog , would be dispensed with on the occasion , and he went to bed . Between eleven and twelve o'clock , howevtr , Mr . Broadfoot came to bis loggings accompanied hy a police officer , and insisted upon his going with them at once to the theatre to perform the piece for which he had been engaged , and which had been announced in tlie hills . He ( complainant ) supposing he was bound to obey the mandate of the police , cons uted ; accordingly went to the theatre , and commenced the piece , bat for want of properproperties he was unable to finish it . He went into the painting room , when a backet of cold water was thrown over him , and ha was attacked in tbe most
wolent manner by a number of persons , Mr . Broadwocd giving the signal for attack . Mr . Barry struck hi : n several times abont the head and face , and he { the complainant ) ultimately rushed upon the stage witb his person drenched with water , his lip cut , and after being seriously maltreated . Mr . Barry followed him on the staire , and addressed the audience . The complainant ' s appesl t o the audience was confined to pointing attention to the s steofhis person and his tears , for he wept bitterly ; while Mr . Barry , having a fluency of language which rTtas well understood , had much the best of this part of the performance , at the audience cheered him on , while they as loudly blued tbe complainant , and the latter was

obliged quickly to ratire and leave the theatre . In conclusion the complainant expressed bis surprise at the d fendant , Mr . Barry , whom he had always treated as a fricnd . and . upon whom he hadbeen in the habit of lavishing large sums of money , in luncheons , dinners , & c . Mr . Wiiton begged on his own part to say , that he had known Mr . VVellcns , who had been a distinguished soldier , aud bore the highest testimonials and decorations , for manyye . irs , and though he was somewhat excitable he believed that a more warm-hcarted or kinder man did not eiist . Mr . Barry and Mr . Broadfoot denied having
struck thecon-. plainant . Mr . Elliott observed that it was oaite clear that a violent attack and very disgraceful outrage had been committed on the person of the complainant . There could be no doubt also that Mr . Barry hud taken a part in the assuult , though not to the extent alleged , and under all the circumstances be advised tbe parties to retire and see if they could not r . rraugc the matter . The parties retired , and the result whs that Mr . Barry agreed to pay the complainant £ 8 , in addition to the £ 0 for his engagement , and tbe latter having accepted these terms tho warrants were dismissed !
WORSHIP-STREET . Serious Assault , —John Lacey , a person of decent appearance , was charged with assaulting and wounding policeman Townsaii . The constable was on duty at night in the Bethnal Green-road , when the defendant ' s wife came to him , bleeding from a wound on the head , which she said had been inflicted witb a poker by her husband , who was at home behaving like a madman . The witness took her to a surgeon to have the wound dressed , and then went with another constable to arrest the defendant , who had then taken out the window sash ofhisbedroom and threatened to throw the sash attlum and smash tfiemif they attempted to approach him . The witness , however , entered at the street door with thekev
which the wife bad given him , and was mounting the stairs , when the prisoner , then standing at the top of tbein , holding something behind him , swore tbat he would shoot the first man who dared to come near him , The light of the police lantbcrn being turned upon him , however , it was seen that he had not got firearms , but a poker , which he brandished about . The witness made a rush at him , but received a tremendous blow from the poker , which laid his head open , and felled him to the ground , and afterwards several other blows . The defendant , instead of attempting any defence , very readily condemned his own misconduct . ' I am heartily sorry ( said be ) for what has happened . The policemen only did their duty , and I richly merit whatever may happen tome on account of this . " The magistrate remanded him for a week .

Tower Hamlets. At The Weekly Meeting Of ...
towncouncellors under the New Police Bill , which unites Calton , Bridgeton , Gorbals , and Anderston with tho city , have all contributed to secure this happy result . As regards our local elections it is sufficient , at present , to say , that our excellent friends , Messr * . Moir and Ross are , at the request ot a numerous body of friends , in their respective wards , candidates for civic honours , with every prospect oi success . There is no opposition , as yet , against Ross , but the Whi'S , in the second ward , are doing everything to oppose Moir . Three members are to be returned for eacli ward . Mr . Moir stands in concert with Bailie Robert Shaw , and David Gilmc-ur—a
son-in-law of Bailie Shaw . Mr . George Mitchell , of the firm of M'llroyand Co ., is one of the opposing candidates ; through this channel the Whigs have used every means to get the Bailie to withdraw and repudiate all communication witb Messrs . Gilmour and Moir , but tho old man , sportsmanlike , has expressed his unalterable determination to stand or fall with those with whom he entered the field . A joint requisition , signed by about 120 electors out of about 300 has been presented to Messrs . Shaw , Gillmour , and Moir , which has been accepted , the canvass is still going oa with every prospect of
success .

In the course of the discussion Mr . Reid said , that Messrs . O'Connor , Clark , and
M'Grnth , were expected to attend a meeting in the GityjIIall , on an early evening , Mr . Colquhoun ultimately moved , that Mr . Sherrington be instructed to write to Mr .

O'Connor ) could favour the people of Scotland with a visit at an early period , and state , if possible , the time he might be expected , this motion was unanimously agreed to . The next meeting of committee will be held in the same place on Friday evening , 23 rd inst . As to the land movement it is evident that a tide is setting in in its favour for surpassing any thing that any of its most devoted advocates could anticipate .

EDINBURGH . The Edinburgh branch of the Land Society , held their usual monthly meeting , on Saturday night , in the Painter ' s Hall . The balance sheet for the quarter was read , and auditors appointed for the ensuing quarter . The sum of 4 s . Id . was voted to the Victim Relief Committee , after which the following motion was moved and carried . That we are of opinion it would greatly increase the interest , and fast growing popularity of the society , were some mode devised and adopted , whereby friends holding separate shares might be located in the same neighbourhood .
LEEDS . The room in the baek of the Bazaar , has been crowded for the last three Sunday evenings , by attentive audiences , to hear a very important discussion respecting the relative querists of " the Chartist Land Society and the Redemption Society . " Messrs . Brooks , Firth , Smithsons , Grainger , & c ., have advocated the former society as better calculated to improve the condition of its member s and society in general , while Messrs . Smith , Buckley , and others whose names arc unknown to us , have advocated the " claims of the Redemption Society . " The general objection against the Chartist Land Society urged by its opponents i > , that it is not safe—it is not enrolled , this has been brought forward when they have been driven from every other point . The discussion , however , has been carried on in the best spirit , and will be the means of doing a great deal of good . Mr . Brooks will resume the same subject tomorrow evening , at half-past 0 .
INAUGURATION OF TIIE CHARTIST ASSEMBLY AND READING ROOM , S 3 , DEAN-~ STREET , SOHO . Thcabove event was celebrated by a public soiree , on Monday evening , October the 12 th . A numerous and highly respectable assemblage of both sexes , sat down to an excellent tea , after which , Mr . Thomas Clarke , was unanimously called to the chair , supported on his right and left by Messrs . Ernest Jones , Julian Harney , and a galaxy of Chartist feminine beauty .
The Chairman said , it gave him great pleasure to preside oversuch a meeting . Institutions like this , were worthy the support of every Democrat , and he hoped this would meet with that support it so well merited , lie held most sanguine expectations of its success , from the talest and energy engaged , in promoting its welfare , The Provinces , naturall y looked up to London for examples , and he trusted in this respect they would not be disappointed , but that the men of this metropolis would act in every way worthy of themselves , and that our great movement might thus bo propelled onwards , with more than railway celerity . ( Loud cheers , ) From the fine feeling now abroad , he had the most lively anticipations of yet living to see democracy triumphant .
( Sluckapplause . ) If by our exertions areouly returned twelve good men and true , exponents of our views and wishes tothe Commons house of Parliament , whatan impetus would it not give to our cause , and he knew of no means better calculated to promote that object and democracy generally , than the opening ot Institutions similar to the present . ( Great applause . ) Everyman , aye , and woman , too ( however mean they might be in their own estimation ) , had a circle of their own , which they could influence , and it was theirduty to use that influence , in forwarding the cause in which they were now engaged . ( Hear , hear . ) It might be said we had already plently of Mechanics' Institutions and reading rooms ; true we had several places bearing that
name , but they were not used by mechanics , but their . benefits fell to the middle , classes generally . This might in some measure be the fault of the working classes , however , here was an Institution peculiarly for them , and it was their own fault if they did not enjoy all those rights and immunities it was so well calculated to confer . ( Loud cheers . ) A sum i ' ar less than that spent by too many in a far less reputable way , would carry it to a triumphant issue . ( Great cheering . ) lie congratulated the working men of this country , that notwithstanding the oft repeated tyrannical stretches of power , and the stringency of the laws , that they had their little Chartist garrison in every town of importance throughout the country , ready to take advantage of every movement that
might occur . ( Cheers . ) Doyle was now travelling through Scotland , promulgating the great truths of democracy , and himself and Mr . M'Grath were about to start south and west , and ere long the country would be roused east , west , north and south , in favour of the " Rights of Man , " as recorded in the People ' s Charter ~ - ( . Much applause )—and although a portion of the press might yet be silent , the voice of a united people should yet conduct to a triumphant issue . ( Immense applause . ) Mr . Ernest Jones then delivered an eloquent and truly poetical address , which was much applauded . Julian Harney also briefly addressed the meeting . Several songs and recitations were then given by the Whitehorn family , and Messrs . Itobbins , Staliwood , Ford , M'Lellan , Simmonds , and others . A ball concluded the entertainments of the evening .

Dreadful Fire, And Loss Of Life. Last Ni...
DREADFUL FIRE , AND LOSS OF LIFE . Last night ( Friday ) shortly after nine o'clock , a fir * of a distressing character broke out upon the premises in the occupation of Mr . John Sharp , a printer and bookseller , Kent-street , St . George ' s , Scuthwark . From the inquiries made of Mr . Sharp , it appears that he has lately been employed in manufacturing fireworks , and it is supposed that the explosion ot some of the combustible . materials used in that business caused the terrible disaster we are about to narrate . Whilst some of the neighbours were passing the building , tbe major part of the shop front was hurled into the street with fearful violence . It was
then perceived that the shop and its contents were ¦ wrapped in one broad- sheet of flames . Several parties immediately rushed forth with buckets of water , which they discharged upon the burning mass . At the same moment intelligence of the outbreak was dispatched to the engine : stations . Whilst , however , the exertions of the parties were directed towards saving the premises , Mr . Sharp , who had left the place barely five minutes , returned home , when his attention was instantly attracted by hearing violent screams proceeding from some portion of the house . He forced his way as well as he was able through the dense mass of smoke that was issuing forth , and in the back parlour he found two of his children almost suffocated . After
considerable trouble he succeeded in getting tliem out , but not before one was terribly injured . Some considerable time . was necessarily lost before that was accomplished , but as soon as the fire was so far got under as to enable any one to enter , Mr . Henderson went'in , and whilst he was examining the shelves at the rear of the counter , he discovered what he at first thought was a "dummy , " used in setting out the shop , but upon taking a light in , it was ascertained to be the body of a human being . The same was removed with all care to the back parlour , and a medical gentleman sent for , who , upon
examining the party , pronounced life extinct . Ihe countenance of the poor ' creature was dreadfully contorted , and it was quite evident that she had died from the effects of an explosion . She was tke eldest daughter of the proprietor , named Ellen Sharp , just turned 19 . It appeared that when her father went out she was sitting behind the counter attending to the shop . Before the fire was extinguished the whole of the stock in trade was consumed , bv which means , independent oflosing his cbiltl , Mr . Sharp 1 ms been bereft of all means of earning a livehood , he being uninsured for a single farthing .

For the last three weeks he appeared exccediagly depressed in spirits , and complained of pains in the head . He retired to rest early on Saturday night last , and at ten q'clock rang his " bell , ordering all his family to bed . Ilis wife
slept with a niece in a room next to his , and during the night they heard that lie was very restless " . Early on the following morning , a servant going into the washhouse , heard him moaning there , and raised and alarm , when his wife and niece went down and found him lying on iiis back with a wound in his throat from which a large quantity of blood had escaped . A carving knife was grasped in his right hand , and a large . bladed penknife was found stained with blood near him . He was quite dead . A verdict of " Temporary mental derangement" was
returned , R kvexue . —Charges of CoMiECTio . v . —From a return to an order of the House of Commons , just delivered , it appears that the total amount of deductions , by revenue departments from the gross receipts , not paid into the Exchequer , during the vear ending Jan . 5 , 1 S 45 , is £ 0 , 152 , 394 Ms . 9 d . The total receipts by all departments ( except revenue ) during the same ycar . frotn all sources except Parliamentary grants or issues from the Exchequer , is £ 909 , 61012 s . Consequently the sum expended that year , which never reached the Exchequer , was £ 7 , 002 , 005 Cs .

Corn Exchange, October 12, This Morning ...
CORN EXCHANGE , October 12 , This morning there was a good show of wheat fresh up from Essex , Iveut , and Suffolk , tlie general quality and condition of which was about the same as last week . The trade opened without much activity on the part ot the millers , but a good progress was made in sales later in the day , at an advance of Is , per qr . from this day week . Foreign wheat remains steady In value , anil lias met to day rather a limited sale . Iu barley , both grind , ing and other sorts , a good business lias been done , at fully last week ' s rates . The sales of oats have proceeded only slowly , and , altliough held for Friday ' s quotations ,
they , in some instances , have barely supported that day ' s rates . Beans were dull of sale , and tlie turn cheaper . White peas , particularly if at all inferior , Is . cheaper . For blue peas the demand has considerably slackened , and , like white varieties , if sales were pivst ' cd , would go at lower rates . In flour no alteration since last week . There lias been a somewhat more contracted demand for most sorts of feeding varieties , and , although , no alteration in quotations can be noted , on tho whole a very limited business has been effected . In seeds of any description there is no change from last week . Canary brings from OSs . to ( it's , for fine quality , and clover seeds are betrininir to excite more attention .
SMll'lU'IELD MARKET . The arrivals of cattle from the Continent into the port of London during tiie past week have been heavy , cum . prising 438 oxen , 1 ) 03 cows , 76 calves , 3 , 181 sheep , 130 lambs , and IU pigs , giving a total of 4 ,-i 9 S head . The market opened very brisk this morning , and continued so throughout tlie day up to the hour of its closing , by which time an entire clearance had been elfected , as in several cases , much higher rates than last Monday were obtainable . Added to the readiness of the butchers both town aud country , to take stock freely , there was a short supply on the whole , both which circumstances gave firmness to the market . The supply of beet' comprised 3 , 350 hand of very tine cuttle , being U 0 U less than on last Monday . Tiie inquiry for this description of meat was very good , and all sold at a rise of I'd . per stone . I ' riino Scuts realized Is . Id ., middling quality 4 s ., and inferior kinds
from 3 s . Id . The number uf sheep on sale was particularly small , being from i > , 00 U to 1 S . U 0 O under the supplies fur many weeks past . The number which were returned tiiis ' inorn ' mg as having paid toll was only 22 , 500 , whereas the supplies lately have been from 3 U , UUU tu 400 , 0 'jO upun each . Monday ' s market , there was iu consequence a very brisk demand with a further rise in price uf-id . per stone of last week's currencies . Prime old downs fetched 5 s . Id ., half breds 5 s . and Polled sheep from Js . fl . per stone . It may be useful to observe that our stock of mutton is not now et ^ ual to the demand . The reports fi urn the provincial fairs have shown that the stock olfcrcd this year is much below the returns of former years . The fact is sufficient , without any other cause , to account for the late rise iu prices , and iho declining number uf the week ' s supply . The trade for both veil 1 and pork was very firm at previous currencies say from 4 s . to as . for the former , and from 4 s . Id . to Os . -id . for the latter .

State Of Trade. Leeds.—There Have Been V...
STATE OF TRADE . Leeds . —There have been very dull markets at the Cloth-halls both on Saturday and Tuesday , and the manufacturers complain heavily of the want of profit . Heavers , pilot cloths , and other heavy goods calculated for the home trade for the winter demand , are the principal articles selling , whilst goods for shipping are very dull of sale . Prices continue steady . Manchester , Friday Evcninp . —There has ' been only a moderate amount of transactions in cloth this week . Tbe uncertainty tbat still seems to await the result of the cotton crop is calculated to paralyse tbe operations of both buyers and sellers . The only gratifying thinjr is the diiily increasing orders for America , from which
quarter much is expected . Yarns are ready sale , at full prices . Bradford , Thursday . —There is no variation in the wool market since our last . The demand is sluggish . Prices remain the same , ns the staplers cannot replace their stocks for less money . There is a fair demand for yams , especially for export , and a shade , higher price is obtained . The spinners are mostly worliing to order . Owing to the wetness of the day there was only a thin attendance of merchants , but an average business was done , especially in heavy goods for the approaching sea . son . Coloured Orleans mid Paramattas are much in . quired for . Huddersfield , Tuesday . —The market to-day has been about the average of the past few weeks . There is not much doing in either the cloth hall or the warehouses .
Halifax , Saturday . —There has been a rather more numerous attendance of merchants here to-dav , but we are not prepared to say that any greater amount of business has been done in piece goods . The Yarn market is without any material change since our last report , and the wool trade continues very inactive , with less firmness in prices ; indeed , in some instances , a visible tendency to give way a trifle . Kochdale Flannel Market , Monday . —We have had a fair average market to-day , and prices are much the same as those on the preceding week . The demand for wool is limited , with little or no variation in price . Leicester . —There continues a good business doinp by tbe country houses , but the demand for London is flat for the season , theshopkeepersfor the present not having supplied themselves witb their winter stocks . Yarns and wools remain stationary .
J » 0 TrtSGHAM .-The wrought cotton hose branch , whother fine or coarse , is dull , as it generally is in the autumn months . The cut-up hose frames are , in manv instances , short of employment ; this applies almost equally to all the departments of the manufacture , from dandies to Shlvage heels and drop-off feet . The drawer , panta-I 0011 , and shirt branch , is kept in a tolerably active state by orders for the army . The silk glove trade , so important to Nottingham , is in much the same state at at outlast report . The plain silk stocking trade , which is the sister branch , is , however , a shade better . The bobbin net trade is still but dull , and much depends upon the sales made at the present f . eipsic fair . The cotton warp lace trade has improved , and seems likely to further amend , as many really good and cheap articles are made from this description of machinerv , which the public at length appreciate ; and will , in all probability , further patronize . The silk warp lace is not in a worse condition than it has been for some weeks past .
Glasgow . —Cotton Yarn : Our market has been very quiet during the past week , altliough prices have been more on the advance than otherwise , especially on Nos . 90 to 120 . —Cotton Goods : Tiie market for general descrip . tions continues exceedingly flat , and prices low . The accounts from the East b y the pressent monthly mail are still very unfavourable ; the exchange has fallen considerabiy , but no advance on the price of gsods , and sales difficult , even at the low unreinunerating prices obtained , We hope , however , that tbe next mail will bring more cheering accounts , as the results of the opening of tho present season will then be better known .
