Provincial Markets. Manchester Cor.V Mar...
PROVINCIAL MARKETS . Manchester Cor . v Market , Saturday . —Rather more business has heen passing in flour during the week , owing to the dealers and bakers having reduced their stocks into so very narrow a compass ; the demand' has , however , been chiefly confined to choice fresh qualities , which maintained their previous value , whilst other descriptions were neglected , and could have been purchased on lower terms . The inquiry for either oats or oatmeal has been without animation , hut no material change in prices occurred . At our market this morning the transactions in wheat were of a limited character , and although any but the hest runs were the turn * cheaper , wo do not vary the quotation of this day se ' nnight . A moderate consumptive demand was experienced for good marks of fresh-made flour , at fully late prices ; but inferior or stale parcels were without inquiry . Oats moved offin retail at a slight improvement on the prices previously obtainable . In the value of prime cuts of oatmeal no alteration can ho reported , the supply continuing scanty .
TWakiunotok Corn Market , Wkdnesdat . — At the market on Wednesday last there was a fair attendance of farmers with fewer samples of wheat than last week . Prices were about the ' same . Red , 6 s . 9 d . to 7 s . ; white , 7 s . to 7 s . 3 d . and very fine samples , 7 s . 6 d- per 70 Hi . Oats , 3 s . 8 d . per 45 lh . Flour , best second , 37 s . ; common 3 ' s . ; meal 33 s . per 240 . The consumption of flour has been iniiclj . lessened by the hot weather . The farmers still bring us potatoes , and they arc again Is . per load cheaper , Pinkeyes , 10 s . to . Us . ; rogers , lis . ; farmers ' , and short t ps , 8 s . per load of 255 lb . Wo had about halfa-dozen baskets of nice new kidney potatoes , which sold at 3 d . per lb . BlKMlNGHAM CORN EXCHANGE , WeDWESOAT . — During the present week the transactions in wheat are only of a retail character , at about our previous currency . Grinding barley and beans maintained their late value . Oats found buyers at the rate of this day se ' nnight .
; Newcastle Corn Market . Tuesday . — Our farmers brought a moderate supply of wheat to market to-day , hut we had a tV . ir show of coasting samples , and the sale proved very dull for flue qualities , at prices the turn cheaper than' on Saturday last , whilst inferior descriptions were quite neglected . For barley the demand was extremely limited , and business could not be transacted to any extent , as the malting season is completely over . The little inquiry for rye was confined to tho host samples . Peas were looking rather lower In the value of oats or other grain no material alteration can be quoted . Ricumosd ( Yorkshiue ) Cork Market , Satuuoat . — We had a large supply of grain in our market to-day , and the samples were rather better than usual . —Wheat sold from 5 s . to 8 s .

State Of Trade. "Leeds.—Last Saturday's ...
STATE OF TRADE . "Leeds . —Last Saturday ' s market at our cloth halls was much the same as the markets of the last few weeks , but on Tuesday there were lower goods sold than we have witnessed for a long time past ; the fears of a change in the Ministry , aud the consequent delay in the settlement of railway ar . d other important matters , has completely stopped the merchants from speculating at the present crisis . Prices are nominal although the stocks are moderate , and the manufacturers continue to act with great caution . We have also had a dull week of business in the warehouses . This being betwixt tho seasons , very few buyers have been in the town , and those who have purchased havh done less than usual . —Leeds Mercury . Bradford . —The husincss done in wool sales are very limited . The spinners buy only for present consumption , There is , however , no fall in price . In yarns there is a fair ; trade , „ ' so far as demand goes , but prises are such as to give no encouragement to spinners to do more business . Tlierohas beau no alteration in the pieco market for the last two weeks .
IlmrnERsriEtn . —Although there has not been that quantity of business transacted to-day which the season would warrant , there lias been a tolerably spirited mar-Uet , and goods , particularly those of novel dKsign and fair quality , have sold freely . Thegoticral complaint amongst both merchants and manufacturers is , that until the agitated feeling whieh pervades all classes as to the ultimate fate of the Corn Iiawn can become settled , that buoyant and healthy confidence , whieh is the very spirit of commercial enterprise , cauuot ht established ,, and a dull monotony in business will be the result . During tho week there have been several of the larger London and provincial buyers in the town , and tho wariness and caution with which they havu done business fully bears out these remarks . Nevertheless , their purchases have been tolerably heavy . Halifax . —In the price of wool there is no variation , and prices both of pieces and yarn remain firm . The hall exhibited some aummtton amongst buyers generally , who are looking out for gootk suitable for the season .
ItociiDAL i Flannel Market . —The flannel market has been dull , and the business transacted has been upon a limited scale ; indeed , few goods were offered for syle , on acrount of the previous wuek being Whitsuntide , The wool market remains steady , and prices arc firm ,

' ' \; n _ ,-Nottingham —A moderate- amount of business was done at the ehd 6 f , "last' week in finished goods of rhost kinds , especially ; fancies of fresh patterns . Replacing these out of . roughj stocks is all that is doing with the makers of Roods , as there is as yet no increase of
confidence in prices , or continued demand , the aspect , of public affairs is generally felt here to be unsatisfactory , and so far as trade is concerned , neutralises the otherwise cheering effect of the weather ,- and promise of-a good harvest . Our fine yarns and cops maintain their prices ; the demand for warps , Ac . for Bradford , Coventry , and London , as well as for the continent , being very good . Nothing is so much to . be desired as a lessened supplyof lace goods , and greater'attention to pattern and quality oh the part of the English machine owner ; thesc , combined , will alone prove a remedy for the existing difficulties of our trade .

At Guildhall , on Saturday , Joseph Mortimer , the Irish , man , who , by representing himself as a . wealthy American merchant , has duped ' a number of ., respectable women into marriage , or by promising thtm ,, obtained a considerable portion of their property , was brought up for final examination before Mr . Alderman Farebrother , on Saturday . . > .. - ' . . . The evidence having heen read over , and the depoattions sighed in the case of fraud on Mrs E . Loyer ,
. . Mr . Samuel Shuttleivorth , wholesale teadealer , of East-Cheap and Chelmsford , produced a copy of a certificate of the prisoner ' s marriage with'Mrs ; ' . Josephine Langhorh , at St . Giles ' s church , Camberwel ) , in June , 1839 . That lady was his wife . ' s sister , and he believed her to be alive at New York . He produced a letter written by her , dated the 22 nd of last March ., He knew it to be in the handwriting of that ' lady . ' The contents entirely alluded to her destitute condition . ¦ Mr . Alderman Farebrother : Prisoner , you may not bo aware that it is our intention now to show that you married a woman in 1844 , when you had a wife , and who is still alive . , Prisoner : I admit that I married that female , hut the otheroneis dead . Mr , Alderman Farebrother : I hold in my hand a letter detailing the circumstances of her death , and I blush that you have not a spark of human feeling that would dictate to you more humane conduct . - . . -
Mfi Shuttleworth ( much "hurt ) 'begged to ' contradict a Statement that the prisoner had made respecting Mrg . Langhorn , wherein he remarked that she was living with another man now iu NewYork , by whom she had children ; now , that was totally false , and the prisoner knew such to be the case . " Sergeant Mackenzie . B 5 , produced a copy ' of the certificate of marriage of the prisoner with a Miss Lovejoy , at St . Phillips ' s Church , Liverpool , on the 22 nd of June , 184 * . He also produced another copy of ' the . prisoner's marriage with Mrs . O . Wright , at St . Leonard' ! Church , Shoreditch , in June , 1845 . . , Mr . B .. Caldecott , a schoolmaster , living in Bethnalgreen , proved that the Mrs . Wright was his Mother , and was present at her marriage with the prisoner , She was at present living in Dublin ,
Mr . Alderman Farebrother asked the prisoner if he had anything to sayt—He replied he would " reserve " it until his trial , when he would bring his whole force against the charges . . The prisoner then made application for some clothes which were found in a trunk at his lodgings , at thepublica house at Chelsea . He wanted them for a change , He also wished the magistrate ' s protection in having £ 300 which he left in the trunk , safely guarded . The police sergeant said the only money found upon him or in his clothes was 10 s , 6 d , Mr . Alderman Farebrother asked the prisoner if th * £ 300 was in money or notes ? Prisoner : In Bank of England notes , and I have 10 , 000 dollars . The sergeant remarked that there were two empty bags in the box , marked 5 , 000 upon them , .
The prisoner begged the Alderman to look over his papers in the possession of'the police . Mr , Alderman Farebrother did so . There were a number of answers from females , to whom the prisoner had evidently profussed the greatest attachment , and several sham bills of exchange , "kites , " but nothing of the kind spoken of by the prisoner , Mr . AldermanFarebrotber said he should commit him to Newgate for the two cases of fraud on Mrs . Loyer , and for marrying Mrs . ' Wright when he had a former wife , Mrs . Langhorn , ' alive ' , He should remand him on the ease of marrying Miss Lovejuy : no doubt that would be satisfactorily proved against him . The following is a copy of the letter alluded to by the Alderman : — * New York , April 24 , 13 i 5 .
"Madam , —Your letter , which I received by the Sid . dons , should have been answered before , but that it has been mislaid , and I am still unable to find it . I must tell you , therefore , what I recollect of the circumstances respecting Mrs . Mortimer . I ( 'id not see her after the first day of our voyage . I believe she never got out of her biirth after the second day , I was introduced to her by Mrs . Koberts , and she appeared to me to be in tolerable health . I was in the next cabin ; and as there was a large opening at the top , we heard very plainly what was said in each other ' s places . A plain , good-natured Englishwoman , In the next berth to theirs , offered to do anything for Mrs . Mortimer , and was refused until she said she was ashamed of offering her services . The first lime I recollect anything about them was when he was
drunk . Wh « n he got into bed she screamed out , " Mortimer , don't touch me . " Afterwards she cried , and I suppose She pu * hed him away , for he swore at her , and said , 'Let me onee get my legs into Ne w York , and" I will mark you . ' The time went on , and every one wondered that Mr ? t Mortimer did not try to get up . When she be . came so ill that her groans were too distressing for me to bear , I sent for the mate , and told him ; and the captain , I believe , saw her ; but no woman was allowed by the husband to do anything for her . Two young women wished to go to her , and they told me that he said , " She is mad ; it is of no use to speak to her . " She , hearing him , said , "I am not mad , James ; I know what they say , let them in , " . but they were not admitted . As I l « y awake , I h » vd her say , " Lord have mercy , " " Christ
save me , " and such broken sentences ; ana my children , who could hear better , being even with her bed , said she som-times talked queerly , but that was only about twenty-four hours before her death . Mortimer was never up with har one night , for the night before she died she < xclairaed , ' Oh , Mortimer , I shall die , I shall die / and he doggedly replied , ' Die then . ' Then she would beseech him , 'Dear , dear James , take mo out of this place . ' But Still no one was allowed to go in . It was beyond description painful for me to bear and hear her awful groans , which resembled tho bowlings of & cat . T he last night she lived , in rather a stronger voice than I expected , she said , ' Turn me , James , I am dying . ' He was asleep by her side , and in reply , said , ' What do you want * What do you want V Some time after I heard
another fainter groan , and at the time said to myself , ' that is much like o rattle in the throat . ' I had baen much disturbed night and day , and now , all boinjr quieter , I fell asleep . At eight o'clock the next morning , the boy who waited upon us came and told us that Mrs , Mortimer was dead and overboard . How much I was shocked I need not try to tell you . The same day Mortimer was walking about the ship with her gold watch about his neck , an object of suspicion and dislike to all on board . I was told he was ransacking her trunks , before I knew of her death , and at night he had a man inhis cabin , with whom he was laughing and chuckling about the watch and other valuables . 1 did not see him throw the body ov erboard , but the sailors did , and you may rely upon it she was not sewed up in any rug . He
did ask the Eng lishwoman to dress her in a night-gown , & C „ but She replied , So , you would not let me do anything for her while living , and now she is dead you may do the rest yourself . ' I heard that she had a clean gown , cap , shift , and stockings put on previous to the sewing up . This is the plain account , bo far as I know anything about it . I do not give any opinion on the tale . It would be improper . I only add , that he was an object of detestation to all- and walked about the vessel , look , ing what ho is , a very bad being , in a human shape . I was never able to sit up in my cabin , from the first to the last , so was never able to do for myself even , i could not , therefore , interfere , as I was useless . " I am , madam , yours sincerely , ¦ i ^^ ^^^^ ii
The name of the writer the tftportei was solicited to omit . She is a highly respectable young lady , and the letter was addressed to a Miss King , in Liverpool , who officiated as bridesmaid to Miss Lovejoy , This was the young lady whom the prisoner succeeded in inducing to break up a respectable seminary iu Liverpool . At the prisoner ' s trial she will be in attendance to give evidence respecting that marriage . The prisoner , on leaving the bar , » l & $ d all ffooubM .
