      Ithixilis— Chartism And Th*5 Corn Laws.—...

      _IthiXiliS— Chartism and th * 5 Corn Laws . —Ou Wednesday evening last , Mr . James Leacb , of Manchester , delivered an able and very interesting lecture , on this subject , in the large room of the Commercial-building ? , to a numerous auditory , composed not ouly of working men , but embodying a _larte portion of the middle cla-ses , who listened with great attention to the lecturer ' s statements . The _meeting was called at a very short notice , the placards announcing it having only been issued on the morning of the same day . Mr . Leach , on entering the room _, was loudly cheered . Mr . Joshua Hobson was called to the chair , and briefly addressed the meeting . The Lecturer , on rising was again greeted with rapturous cheering . He commenced by enunciating the

      circumstances under wbich the meeting was called , and the principles they were met to hear propounded . In tbe first place be referred to the causes wbich bad led lo the present depressed condition of the _people ; and enquired why , if " extension of commerce " would so greatly ameliorate this condition , the _present distress should at all exist , seeing that already trade had been pushed into every corner of the globe , and into every channel where it eonld be pushed , and yet the population were _tuffering . Mr . Leach then referred to machinery , and proceeded to show that he was not an enemy to it , but only to the mode in which it was at present managed—and the enormous reductions which it had caused to be made in the wages of the

      operatives . He denied that extension of commerce would lead to tbe results which the free traders had said would arise from it ; and also that commercial prosperity would arise from the cheapness of food , consequent upon an exchange of English goods fur foreign grown corn . He instanced the fact , that , on Peel's tariff coming out , a manufacturer went to his works and told his hands that they were going to have bacon cheap , and _showed his sympathy for them by reducing their wages at once twopence per cut . The lowering the price of provisions would not put it into the power of the people to purchase ; because , let food ba ever bo cheap , if the people had not the money to purchase with , it was still too dear for them . The average wages of the " League" mill proprietors in Manchester was at present , on an average , 4 s . 3 d . per week ; and whilst they were in the habit of

      giving a workman all som of filth to work , he was expected to carry in an excellent article , or be subject to deductions even from this paltry pittance . The home trade , he contended , would , if properly encouraged , give employment to all ; because if the whole people in England , Ireland , aud Scotland were hi a situation to purchase even the necessary articles of wearing apparel , the demand for labour would be such as to find employment for all . He showed by official documents that the increase of exports of manufactured goods had not brought increased prosperity in its train , for as our exports of manufaciured goods had gone on increasing ( and they bad been greater within the last five years than they ever were before , ) in the same proportion were the earnings of the operative classes reduced . Mr . Leach then contrasted , in an admirable manner , the difference between the comforts and

      conveniences of good old fashioned bouses , which used to be commodious , well-fitted , and furnished , with those bailt at the present day , with scarcely room to store the potatoes which used to be grown by the working people of bye-gone times . He drew a broad distinction between what its advocates called freetrade , and what he would set down as fair trade ; and entered into the expenses which must be incurled by importing food into this country , amongst which the largest bite out of the foreign loaf was taken by the national debt , which took 18 pounds of bread from every family every week , or 29 millions a year out of the pockets of the people ; and which said national debt he looked upon as a complete farce , for if the nation owed nothing to anybody

      but itself , it was in the same position as a man who owed himself a shilling , and which was nothing to anybody ; it was a thing contracted without- the _COUSont of the people , arid was an incubus on the energies of the people . He would not take away from any one the interest legally their due ; but he contended that the Jew jobbers had received more than they were in justice entitled to , and thb debt itself had been completely paid off . He then referred to the advantages derived by those who had fixed incomes from the taxes , who had reaped every advantage from the cheapening of the commodities produced by labour , while , with cheapness of provisions wages had been lowered , and the producers of all wealth were deprived of

      the opportunity of purchasing their own productions . The Euglish manufacturers had been valued by a geologist , some years ago , who told them that America would never be able to compete with them , because she had not the raw material ; she had neither coal nor iron , and the cost of getting them from England , and working them in America , would be too expensive for them . But he could tell them that it was a fact , that in America now they had immense areas of coal , from five to seven feet thick , aud numerous furnaces smelting iron of their own producing , not what they had imported from England . He was no geologist himself , and he did not know whether these beds of coal had grown in America within these few years ; he only knew that there it was , from five * to seven feet thick , while our own poor colliers were grubbing in the bowels of the earth , in a space

      not exceeding in most case twenty-two inches . The lecturer then referred to the operations of foreign tariffs , and went at some length into arguments to show that England was surrounded by monopolist nations , who had begun _manufacturing , and who would not give it up for the sake of growing corn for us . To the monopol y of the soil he ascribed a great portion of the evil , which like the monopoly of machinery , had thrown a redundancy of hands into the labour market , and prevented its employment at any thing like remunerating prices , because flesh and blood could not compete with wood and iron . Mr . Leach then went into the enquiry what it was that would cure the dreadful state of things to which this country had been reduced . It was not free trade that wonld provide the remedy . If any country , he oared not what , wished to lay the foundation of prosperity , they must lay it on their own shores , and not be dependent on foreign trade for employment for the working population . If

      Ithixilis— Chartism And Th*5 Corn Laws.—...

      foreign trade was wanted in this country why not look to poor neglected Ireland , where five millions ot poor naked people were deprive d of the means of purchasing by the very means which were preying upon the very vitals of the people of England —a oircumstanca which would be much altered if Ireland was situated in tho Mediterranean , and the cry could be raised , " Oh here are five millions who would take our goods if we could only have freetrade . " It was not foreign competition which was ruining England , it was home competition ; for the manufacturers had so beaten one another down in their profits , by underselling in the market , that there was at last nothing for them to fall back upon but the workmen ' s wages whioh

      had been , by degrees , so reduced , that it was now much worse than ever it was before , for 5 a . taken from a man when he was earning 25 s . per week was not bo mnch folt as at present , when a man earns only 7 s ., and 6 d . was taken from it . Ho showed what party had alone gained by the introduction of machinery ; and that , though Leeds was now producing a greater amount of wealth than all England did seventy-five years ago , yet its manufacturing population were in proportion as much more miserable , —an inevitable result of the misapplication of the powers of machinery . A fair distribution of those powers was the only remedy for all those evils ; and ic was only by going to the root of the evil at once—by abolishing class legislation—that the

      present condition of the people could be ameliorated . It was only by the people demanding—and not _beins satisfied until they got it—a voice in the making of the laws by which they are to be governed ; and until the voice ofthe people was beard within the pale of the Constitution , there never could be a day when the people could be happy , and when freedom , which was their birthright , would be won for them . Mr . L . was frequently interrupted by tbe plaudits of the assembly , and resnmed his seat at half past nine o ' olock , amidst loud cheers . The Chairman then inquired if any gentleman present wished to dispute the lecturer's position ; if there were auy one present , and would come forward , he would guarantee them a fair hearing . After waitinh a few minutes and no one appearing , Mr . Hobson

      _delivered a short address , after which Mr . Edward King , share-broker , wished to ask Mr . Leach a few questions . H « advanced to the platform , and a short discussion took place , the views of the two gentlemen very nearly _assimulated ; and Mr . King in the end said he believed they were perfectly agreed on _oae point , namely , that it was bad , corrupt , class-legislation—the legislation of the few—which had produced the evils under which the people were suffering , and until this was altered that no remedy would effectually restore the people to happiness and freedom . . Mr . King wa- * the only one of the " League" who , oat oi the immense number present , had the moral courage to stand up and endeavour ,, in some degree , to shield the free-trade party from the whacking they had received . Thanks were then vited to the

      Lecturer and Chairman , and to Mr . King , for his ge / _itemanly conduct , and the meeting broke up soon alter eleven o'elock . A Wholesale Thief at Leeds . —An old man who has nearly seen his three-score years and ten , named Isaac Robinsen , on Monday last , underwent a final examination before the magistrates at tho Court-house , on two eharges of felony ; and the search of his premises , consequent on his apprehension , has bronght to light the fact , that for some very considerable period he has been hoarding together stolen property of almost every description , without the slightest suspicion ever having attached to him . Twenty years ago , he was one of the guardians of the night under the old regime , and

      since his discharge from the force , has ostensibly ( at least for some years ) got his living by gathering horse dung . He has reside- ! in a house of his own in Little Queen-street , and there is scarcely a timber merchant , joiner , stone mason , or bricklayer , within any reasonable distance of this man ' s dwelling , wbo has not at one time or another missed property from his premises without being able to tell how it had gone . It happened last week , however , that accident led to a result little anticipated by the hoary headed " conveyancer . " Mr . Thomas Beanland , of Addingham r has a daughter who resides as servant in the family of Mr . Ludolf , in York-place , and it being Leedsfair , the old man paid a visit to his daughter , and

      was solicited to take up his abode a » Mr . Ludolf _s for the night . He did so , and on Wednesday morning , on getting up at peep of day , he drew up the blind of his bed-room window , and then saw au old man busy burying some planks in » small plantation opposite to the house ; he watched him until he had done , aud saw him leave the place . Imagining that all was not right , he mentioned the circumstance to the family , and , after breakfast , in walking out , he met with policeman Haigh , to whom alao he communicated what he had seen . Haigh laid the _cuse before Mr . Read , and information having reached the police-office that some planks had been stolen from the premises of Mr . Smith , joiner , in Gracestreet , Haigh was told to go in plain elothes at night

      and watch the plantation . He did so , but nobody came near until about six o'clock oa Thursday morning , when Haigh heard two men iu conversation in tne plantation . Mr . Smith was there with bim , and on the men going away , he seat Mr . Smith round on the outside of the railings , and in ten minutes afterwards the prisoner was seen to approach the place with a plank which he put over the rails , and was then returning , when he was seized by Mr . Smith , and given into Baigh ' s custody . After having locked him up , tbe next step was to search the plantation , and the _maa ' s bouse and out-premises , when buried in the plantation were discovered upwards of twenty planks , the whole of which Mr . Smith was able to identify ; and

      in the house and yard of the prisoner were found whole deals , planks , spars , quite new , and in great abundance , two cart loads of old wood , oak , ash , elm , & c ; two cart loads of flags , the same of bricks , with shovels , spades , and pick-axes , hammers , wheelbarrows , cart gearing , ladders , steps , hay-forks , scythes , sickles , a large mash-tub , a pair of new wheels , and other property to an immense amount ; nearly the whole of which turns out to have been stolen , and whioh can be identified by the owners ; nay , to such an extent has the prisoner carried his depredations , that it is _Relieved the whole of the bricks and other materials of which his house is constructed have been stolen , as well as those of two other cottages which he has

      in course of erection in the same street . There was in Ins house three floors of planks , one upon another , laid together without nails , nearly the whole of whieh Mr . Smith can speak to as having been stolen from him . Other parties , also , are hourly coming forward to put in their claim , and for the last few days the premises have been regularly besieged by anxious claimants . The two charges , however , on which he has been committed for trial , are for stealing a three-inch deal , on Sunday the 9 th of October , the property of Messrs . Harrison and Singleton ; this was stolen from a "hurry , " which

      had been ladeu on Saturday night by Wm . Hardwick , of Armley Hall , and by him left in Henry Street , New Road End , until Monday morning , when the deal was found to be gone . The other case was for stealing a pair of new _wheeb , the property of Henry Ball , wheelwright , of _Kirkstaliroad , by whom they had been made and sent to Mr . Boddy _, iu North-street , to be disposed of . They were stolen from Mr . Boddy _' s premises about the 24 th of Oct ., along with a large brewing tub . These things were found in the prisoner's bouse . Tbe bench having beard the whole of the statements , the prisoner was fully committed to take his trial at the

      next sessions . Ancient Foeestebs . —At a court of this order , held at the bouse of Mr . Joseph Lee , the Star and Garter Hotel . Call-lane , on Monday evening , a handsomely _wrought silver snuffbox was prsented to Mr . John _Uileart , Police Clerk and Inspector , as a token of the high esteem in which he is held , and as an acknowledgement of the services which he has rendered to the order . The box was presented in flattering terms . It bears the following inscripton : — . " A mark of respect to John Uileart , P . D . C . R ., P . C . R . P . S ., and P . A . P ., from the members of Court Lord Morpeth , No . 189 , of Ancient Foresters , and Sanctuary , No 80 , of Anoient Shepherds ; presented Nov . 14 th , 1842 . "

      HUDDERSFIELD—Hall of Science . —A public examination of the scholars , connected with this institution , took place on Sunday last , before Mr . Phillips , the superintendent , on fhe following subjects : — " General objects , the atmosphere , geo graphy , and astronomy . " The examination will be continued next Sunday afternoon , at half past two , on the Cuvierian division ofthe animal kingdom , astrology , arithmetic , and astronomy . CLITHERO . —Teetotalism . —Mrs . Jackson of Whitehaven , delivered two lectureB on the evenings of Friday and Saturday last . Her arguments were plain , instructive , and argumentative . She entered at great length into a clever defence of teetotalism , by appropriate quotations from Holy Writ . She was listened to with the greatest attention , and we believe that many converts of both sexes , have been the result .

      MANCHESTER . —On Saturday evening , Mr . Thomas Rail ton , and the other gentlemen that traversed at the late Liverpool Assizes , were served with an ambiguous and unmeaning notice , which rather took them by surprise , inasmuch as it called npon them to appear before her Majesty on the 15 ih day of November , and this being the 12 th , at night , they knew not what to do , nor where they were to appear at . On Monday , Mr . Pilling and another person , from Ashton , came to Manchester , they also

      Having notice to tbe same enect . They had applied to an attorney at Ashton , who advised them to go forthwith to London . In this manner were they fixed , and the lawyers of this place were ignorant ( or professed to be so ) of the nature of the notices with which they had been served . Unfortunately also , Mr . Cobbett was from home ; at length it was agreed that that gentleman ' s clerk should write to his agent in London , and instruct him to appear in the Court of Queen's Bench in their behalf , and enter their appearances by proxy . What is the intention

      The serving the men with these papers has produced a great sensation in the town , and many and various are the opinions as to the result of this alltogether novel procedure . Some are of opinion that the Government intend removing the trials to Londen , and others way this is the prelude to another oommisiion in a short time . All appear equally at a loss what to make of it . i ' Fatal Coal-pit Accident . —On Monday , an inquest was held atthe Hey wood ' s Arm 3 , Oldhamroad , before Mr . Chapman , borough coroner , on the body of Daniel Etchells , of No . 6 , Back Ash-street .

      The deceased was fourteen years old , and was in the employ of Messrs . Porter , Walker , and Co . colliers Early on the morning of Monday , the boy , along with two men , named Gough and Dodd , descended into a pit at Miles Platting , in a tub ; and , when they had proceeded about seven yards down , the bottom of the tub , on which the deceased was sitting , eame out , and he was _precipitated to the bottom . The injuries he received were of such a nature as to cause his death almost instantaneously . The two men in the tub at the same time owed their escape to clinging to the chain to whioh the tub was attached . The Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death , "

      BOLTON " . _—DESTarcrivE Fire . —On Tuesday morning , about one o ' clock , one of the town's lamplighters discovered that a fire had broken oat at the mill of Messrs . Hasleden and Co ., Spaw-lane f Bolton , and immediately gave an alarm . Several ofthe police officers , with Mr . Boyd , the superintendent , and otherd , ' . ' were immediately on the spot ; and six firo engines were brought out . There are two mills in close connection with each other *; one an old mill _builtiu 1802 , by Mr . Gregson , containing a card room , a number of power looms , and , in the attic , mules for spinning . The fire originated in the upper story at the east end of the old mill , in which twelve bags of cotton had been placed on the 14 th instant ; but no person had been employed in it for the last fortnight , on account of the proprietors taking stock ; and it was their intention to resume work on Monday next . The engines having been

      brought into play , their attention became directed to the new mill , which appeared to be in great danger from the immense volumes of flame which issued from the did building . The flooring gave way alternatively with tremendous crashes ; and , at four o'elock , the wall at the west end fell , but fortunately no one was injured . Shortly afterwards , the front wall fell down , and the entire building became a perfect ruin . The roof of the new mill was burned at the corner ; but , by strenuous exertion , the fire was prevented from entering the mill , which was Eaved . The canse ofthe fire is not not known , and its occurrence appears somewhat singular , as there had not been any one employed initfor _Todays , and there has not been any fire in it except that in tho engine-houfe . The mill was insured withthe Yorkshire , the York and London , and the Atlas insurance offices at £ 5 , 000 ; which will probably cover the loss .

      LEIGH . —Itis with feelings of the most painful nature that I have to inform you , that such is the depressed state of the silk trade , that there are thousands in Leigh , and its- surrounding districts , that aro totally destitute of employment . The streets are thronged every morning with weavers who come a distance of four , sis , and eight miles , using all their exertions , and straining every nerve , in order to get employment , but to no avail ; and they are compelled to return to their cheerless and hapless homes , from which they were driven in the morning by the cries of hungry children and heart-broken wives .

      The privations and sufferings which the men themselves endure are visibly pourtrayed , in their pale and haggard countenances , as they are pacing the streets . The causeof this _unparalleled stagnation in the Bilk trade , is by-the weavers themselves attributed to a determination on the part of the manufacturers to force the people upon the land , and to reduce . them to that state of distress and destitution , as to cause them , if possible , to join ia an agitation for a repeal of the Corn Laws . But , thank God ! oppressed as they are , hungry and starved as they are , they have existing in their bosoms a spirit too aeble and to manly for it . —Correspondent .

      BEVERLE _*? . — "Flare- vr' with theLbaoue _; —On Tuesday morning , our usually quiet town was considerably excited from the circumstance of Mr . Falvy , League lecturer , being about to hold . forth in the Town Hall , and numbers assembled „ it being expected that tho kill-devil Chartists would offer Opposition . At eight o ' clock , the building was well filled ; and Mr . Tiger , a _manufacturer , and late chief magistrate ,, waa called to the chair who commenced the proceedingsbydenouncing all monopolies _, except the monopoly in legislation—by denounomg ah taxation , by consigning to perdition the national debt , and by introducing Mr . Falvy to the meeting . Mr . Falvy , in a speech of about an hours''duration , artfully dodged round the question at issue—never onoe venturingfurth * r than its borders . He treated

      us to dissertations upon almost every ' subject save the Corn Laws . He- showed how the poor were the men who had given stability to the state . He maintained that gradations of society had ever existed , and . took some pains to prove that the intelligence of the parent was transmitted to his offspring . He then applied himself to a little gentle flattery of the Whig magistrates , by contrasting the present with the late corporation , ' and administered no small dose of soft sawder to the gentleman occupying the chair . He next turned to the character and conduct of Peel , and enlightened his audience on the subject of the Corn Laws , by proving that on the Criminal Code , on tho Test and Corporation Aot , on the Income Tax and Tariff , Sir Robert had stolen the deeds of other men . He then stated the iaws

      of property were settled , and the League had no wish to disturb these settled laws , himing that there were other parties in the state who were not so ceremonious , for lately we had seen armed rebellion walking through the land in open day ; and he concluded by showing that bloody revolutions were never attended with beneficial results . Mr . _Holiday would give credit to Mr . Falvy for ability , for being able to steer clear of the question , but pledged himself that his opponent , should grapple with the question prior to his leaving the Hall . He showed from statistical returns the increase which had taken place in our manufactures , and the decrease in the wages and comforts of the people . He adverted to the increased producing powers of machinery , and

      satisfactorily showed , that let the demand for our goods increase to any possible extent , it would be accompanied by a corresponding increase of machinery power , so that no possible benefit could accrue to the working clauses . He adverted to the Tariff , and called on Mr . Falvy to prove that this approximation to his principles had given a stimulus to trade ; or that a _singlo head of cattle had been paid for in manufactures . Ho then showed that continental powers had established , and were fostering , their own manufactures , and free trade had come too late ; but , as he was some times charitable , he would point them out customers in lieu of those they had lost ; for , if the people of this country were not robbed and plundered , they would possess means

      to be their own best customers ; and , for his part , he was averse to a single bale of cloth leaving the country , while there was a naked back requiring it at home . Mr . Falvy , in his reply , merely glossed over the subject ; but never , in one instance , refuted the close reasoning of his opponent . He attempted to 6 how that the draining of this country of gold was beneficial to our manufacturers ! and being driven from England was compelled to take refuge in Ireland , where , though spinning jennies were unknown , destitution prevailed to aa alarming extent . The chairman , prior to putting the question , seeing the mess in whioh his advocate had let t it , under protest from Mr . Holliday , took upon

      himself the pretty difficult task of getting out of the scrape . He took great pains , amid the laughter of those on the platform , to prove that Mt . Falvy was wrong , although he said he was right , and ended by getting himself into greater difficulties than his predecessor . The question being put the influence of the presence of the masters was clearly visible , for not onethird of those in the hall held up their hands on either side , and the chairman declared the decision to be in favour of repeal . Mr . Falvy in moving a vote of thanks was free to confess that the eh airman had acted wrong , but he trusted his opponent would forgive him and second the vote which was accordingly done , when the disputants separated under the promise " to meet again some other day . "

      STOURBRIDGE . —A Lodge of the Yorkshire Union of Anoient Free Gardeners , was opened by the officers of the Currant Lodge , assisted by the G . M . of the Dudly District , at the house of Brother Tetley , of the Furrier ' B Arms , High-street , Stourbridge , when a number of highly rcepeotable individuals were initiated into the art of Gardening . The evening was spent with the greatest hilarity , and the company dispersed at an early hour , highly satisfied with the proceedings of the evening .

      America Liverpool, Wednesday Evening. Th...

      AMERICA LIVERPOOL , WEDNESDAY EVENING . The steam-ship Britannia , Captain Hewitt reached tne _Jersey today , soon after twelve o ' clock , after an _extremely _boii-terous passage , during the last few days ot-which she encountered a constant succession of heavy _;? ales . She left Boston on the 1 st , and Halifax * on the 3 rd instant . . The principal news in the papers relates to Texas and Mexico . Both countries are preparing to strike a decisive blow , live thousand Mexican troops had left Matamoras for Texas , while the citizens of the latter country were up in arms and rushing to the frontier to meet their assailants . In the neighbourhood of San Antonio , where a short time previously the Mexicans had

      entered in triumph , a battle had taken plaoe , and although they out numbered their opponents by three to one . the Mexicans retired ( " scampered '' is the term used ) to a considerable distance , leaving upwards of one hundred dead on the field , and about twice that number wounded . Anxious to put a stop to this conflict , and bring about , if possible , a reconciliation between the belligerents , Mr . Webster , the American Minister for Foreign Affairs , had addressed a communication to the representative of his Government at Mexico , offering the services of the United States as a friendly power , and stating it to be the opinion of President Tyler that the war , as it relates to Mexico , was useless and hopeless . "

      In the United States elections for members of the States Legislatures had taken -place for about twothirds of the number composing the Union . The rcsnlt , as far as it had gone , was generally favourable to the Loco-foco , or Democratic party—strengthening the power ofthe existing Federal Executive , which , although elected by the opposite party , has exhibited , since the death of _General Harrison , political tendencies inimical to those professed by that functionary . The picking of the cotton crop was proceeding favourably . From _Yaitoo , on the Mississippi , 1 , 000 , 000 bales will , it is said ,, be shipped this year , being an increase on the crop of last year , which waa deemed above an average crop .

      A seizure had been made by the Custom-house officers at Boston , tho nature * of which ought to be made known in this country . A quantity of goods from Paris was shipped in the Royal Mail steamer , whioh touched at that port , and seized on . the ground that an English * vessel could not legally bring any goods except those manufactured ib Great Britain . A sad " cut" ' to American _credit was recently given at _Havannah . Good private bills , at sixty days ' sight , were rregociated at a premium of two per cent ., while the- bills of the Federal Government , at thirty days' sight , could only be * negotiated at three per cent , _discount .-The rate of exchange is very low ,, 106 to 106 _f . The market dull , and the little doing in any ofthe local stocks . On France the rates were 5 f . 45 o . to So 5 f . 4 " 2 Ac .

      C 03 _WERCIAL . The prospects of business are gradually improving throughout the United States . Specie payments have been resumed through all the States , except Alabama , Illinois , and' Tenessee , and even , in these- a change for the b-rtter is apparent . Specie is tending rapidly towards New Orleans ,, where exchange is now ten per cent , against England and France , and six per cent , against the Northern States . The effect of this is to _csneentrate * upon New Orleans the great outlet of the West ,. the specie which during the last three months , has been accumulating at Boston and New _York , and to- attract a large amount which now lies Useless in the vaults of the Banks of England -rad France . At New Orleans it will be applied to the purchase of the immense masses of cotton , tobacco ,

      sugar , ffimr , wheat , pork , lard , Indian corn , a other produce , rapidly tending to that great mart * After equalising the exchanges ; it will move up tho Mississippi , Ohio , and Missouri , and form the basis of a beautiful future business , resting on low prices ' and a specie basis . For this we are indebted in a great part to tho now Tariff . Under the beneficial influence of this gre _^ t measure , tbe drain of specie for Europe , to pay for the excess of foreign imports , has been stopped . Factories long idle , have been set in motion , and nearly 200 , 000 operatives have resumed their avocations . The market for our surplus productions denied us abroad , is thus opened at home , for these operatives with their families must buy of the farmer , and this year it is _expected _Massaohusetts alone will consume 800 , 0 Od barrels of flour raised in other-States , and vast _quantities of corn , pork , butter , cheese , and grain . -

      Under the influence of the tarifj , and tbe great harvests of life present year , almost unparalleled * from Maine to Georgia , freights are improving , and are now higher at the great shipping ports of the South , than they have been for a year past .

      Leeds Woollen Maxk & ts , Tuesday , Nov . 15 . — Tnere is nothing new to notice in the transactions at the Cloth Halls , except ! that business seems to be getting more at a stand still . Buyers are ; Very scarce , and there is not near so much doing hi the warehouses as was the case a short time ago . — Taliow . —The price of tallow has been reduced '; : it is now 4 s . lOd . per imperial stone . _Rochdaie Flannel _MAaittev , Nov . 14 . —The flannel market has been much like that of the preceding Monday—a fair demand for goods , at 1 _* MV prices . In the wool market , the dealers complain of having little to do : the manufacturer pu . 'chases as if he expected lower prices ; and indeed this article is better to buy than it was a short time ago .

      - _Hcddessfi-em * Cloth _Marker Nov . 15 . —The town this day scarcely wore the aspect of market day . Buyers were scarce . The general cry was "There ' s little done to- day . " Although there is little done in the hall , it is generally believed there aTe at present more operatives employed in the neighbourhood . Wools , Oils , & c ., remain steady . Richmond-, _Satu-rbat , Nov . J 2 . —W % had a fair supply of Grain in our market to-day . Wheat sold from 5 _s 6 d to Zb ; Oats from 2- ? 3 s to 33 > 6 d ; Barley from 4 s to 4 s Gd ; and Beans from 5 s bo 5 s 6 dper bushel .

      State of Tbade : —The improved demand for goods , to which we alluded last week , still continues ; and a pretty extensive business has been ddrne during the last few day ? ,-at _prices generally a shad's higher than those obtained a week ago . In "She yarn market also , a considerable amount of business has been done for Germany ; the near approach of winter haviug rendered the buyers anxious to-close their operations for the season . Previous rates have consequently been readily given ; but no advance can be quoted . Generally speaking , the market , without being at all animated , is firm and healthy : and , from the general absence of stock , seems-lately to continue so , unless disturbed by fluctuation *] -in the cotton market . —Al & nehester Guardian , of Wednesday .

      Manchester Com *** - Market , Saturday , Nw 12 . - —The . supplies . -of Flour from the agricultural districts have for some time past been diminishing , and the stocks of prime English manufacture are now reduced into a narrow compass ; the market has in consequence become relieved from the severe pressure noted of late ,-and prices not previously obtainable have been realised daring the week . The inquiry for Oatmeal has-been chiefly for immediate consumption , and to effect sales lower rates were submitted . The Irish arrivals comprise 3062 quarters of Wheat , 8853 quarters of Oats , and 1 L _730

      loads of Oatmeal . Elsewhere but little addition to the previous stocks has been reeeived . The _duty-on foreign Wheat has advanced to 20 s per quarter , aad on Flour to 17 s 2 _^ d per-barrel , being the highest rate in the scale . At our market thiB morning there was a great want of animation in the trade , and the _alvance noted this-day se ' nnight on Wheat was not supported . _In-the-quotations of Flour so change can be made . Oats- were a dull sale , aad Id per 45 lbs lower ; and the transactions in Oatmeal were only to a limited extent , at a decline of Sd per load .

      Liverpool Cattle . Market , Monday , Nov . 14 . — We have had a smaller supply of Cattle at market to-day than of late , the greater portion of secondrate quality , with an advanoe in price . Beef 5 d to 5 Ad , Mutton 5 d to 6 _£ d per lb . Number of Cattle at market : —Beasts 1362 ; Sheep 4420 . Liverpool Cotton-Markkt , Monday , Nov . 14 . — The market is rather more quiet to-day , but price * remai ' b quite steady- The sales amount to about 3500 bags , including 500 Surats at 3 _£ d . to 43 d ; 80 Peruana , 6 | i to 7 d . ; 60 . Maranham ,. 5 } to 6 _j ; 80 Smyrna , 5 j _£ d ; American , 4 d to 5 _£ d . On Saturday 4 _Qrj bags were sold .

      Liverpool Cork Market , Monday , Nov . 14 . — The arrivals to this port during the past week include 2 , 375 quarters of Wheat , 7 , 637 quarters of Oats , and 10 , 637 loads of Oatmeal , from Ireland ; 2 , 125 quarters of Barley have been received coastwise ; but , with these exceptions , the imports of Grain , & c , are ef light , amount . The duties of Foreign Wheat and Flour are now at the maximum , 20-i . per quarter aad . 12 s . Id . per barrel . On Tuesday last , Wheat generally was quoted 2 d . to 3 d . per bushel dearer ; thiB advance has since been maintained for all descriptions of Foreign , but the sales have been much less free , and with the little increase of supply the improvement , so far as regards Irish new , has been lost , 6 s . 9 d . to 7 s . per 701 _bs „ being

      _aj-ain outside rates for best samples of red . Flour has met only a moderate sale at 27 s . 6 d . to 2 ts . Sd . for United States , 2 * _s . 0 d _, to 27 s . 6 d . per barreLfor Canadian . Both Oats and Oatmeal have receded in value ; the former fully Id . per bushel , the latter 6 d . per load , and at this reduction some portioa of the recent arrivals remaiu unsold . 2 s . 4 d . to 2 _s .. Sa \ per 451 bs . are-the present quotations for Irish new Oats , 22 s . to 22 s . 6 d . per load for Oatmeal . No change as regards Barley , _Beaas , or Peas . London Corn Exchange , Monday , Nov . 14 . — Our supplies during last week were small of English Grain of every description , but of Irish Oats the arrival was abundant . We had also an importation of Foreign Wheat , amounting on the whole to 7 , 550 quarters . The trade in the early part of the week was brisk j , at rather improving prices for every

      description of Grain , but the market of Friday was less attended , and the demand considerably less , active . To this morning ' s market the supply fresh up waa fair of E > sex and Kentish Wheats , and tha demand being tolerably good ( although not so free as last week ) , has caused prices to remain altogether without alteration from this day week . The supply of Barley fresh up is good , and the trade , as with Wheat , not so free as this day week , but prices are supported . Oats are unaltered in price ; fine descriptions of heavy com meeting a fair demand . Old Beans are a very slow sale . New Beans and White Peas maintain their quotations , bnt Maple Peas come slowly to hand , and realise freely last week ' s prices . In flour we hear of no alteration . Seeds of . all descriptions steady , with the exception of Canary Seed , whioh is rather dearer .

      York Corn Market , Nov . 12 . —We have a large supply of Grain to-day , the condition of which is more or less affected by the weather . —Wheat and Oats are slow sain at last week ' s prices , and Barley ia Is . per qr . lotver . —White Wheat , 46 s . to 48 i . to 62 s . for very fine ; Red do ., 44 a . to 46 to 49 s . do . ; Barley , Malting , 26 to Q 8 _a . ; Grinding , 9 d . to 104-per stone ; Oats , 9 d . to 10 id- per stone ; Beans , 113 . bd . to 13 s . 6 d . per load .
