      NO Medicine yet offered to the world ever so rapidly aturinedsuch distinguished celebrity : it is qHestiona-Meif dierebenow any part of the civilised globe where its extraordinary healing virtues have not been exhibited . This signal success is not attributable to any system of -advertising , but solely to the strong recommendations of parties cured by their use . The Proprietors of Parr ' s life Pill' s have now in their possession upwards of fifteen hundred letters , several of them from Clergymen oftbe Ciiurch of England , many from distinguished isseuting Jttinislers , from gentlemen connected with the Army and SaTTj also from Members of Parliament , Merchants , and last , though not least , from members of the Medical Profe « fion and a skilful Analytical Chemist ; all speaking in tfc-j highest terms of the valueof this inestiinableinedicine . Tiiu is a mass of evidence in its favour beyond all parallel .

Hence the list of »¦ -., actable names bearing endcuccto the high character o . this rev Sy , and testifying behind the possibility of doubt the uodderful character of the medicine by the number of extraordinary and decided cures wholly resulting from its use . This medicine , ' olely by reason of' its high character , has extended itself i-J all . parts of tie world ; and therefore its heating wtui- !? mav justly be considered universal . Agents arc

      PROVINCIAL ' : MARKETS . Livehpooi Cobn MABKET .-Excepting ; 12 155 qr&o . malt received costwise , and 5 , 563 sacks of flour from Ireland , thesupplies of British grain and meal are this week of very light amount . From Foreign ports , however , the arrivals are extensive , the import note showing upwards of 62 , 700 . barrels of flour , 0 , 70 » qrs . of Inclian corn , and 9040 brls . of Indian corn meal from the United States . We have also the first arrivals ^ this season from Canada , consisting of 12 , 894 barrels of flour , and 1 . C 00 ( irs , Of wheat , Under the anticipation of the passing Of the Corn Importation Act , and . . consequent early release from bond of large quantities ot wheat ana flour , the local millers and dealers have bought as spnrinrfy during the week as their wants would permit ; prices of free wheat and flour have slightly given way , whilst those of bonded have imp'oved a little , but without in eithercase establishing a quotable change . The business in oats , barley , beans and pease / . hasbeen of avery " . Iimitea nature . We have had some heavy rain , and almost daily showers , since last Tuesday , and which have greatly improved the prospect of the spring-sown corn .

      Birmingham Corn Exchange . — During the present week we have again had very little passing in the trade , the favourable change of weather having added to the dullness caused by the new Corn Law being expected to come into operation next week , The gram which has changed hands realised the currency of last market day . Wakefield Cobn Market .-The supplies are again small : there was a small retail ' doing for fine iresh wheats for immediate . use , at last week ' s rates — other qualities without inquiry . Beans held firmly for more money . Oats and shelling each the turn lower . Malt again better sold . : . Manchester Cobn Market . — The trade during the week lias remained steady , without much activity ; but the limited nature of the stocks of choice li-esh-niade flour has enabled factors to find a ready sale , on arrival ,

      for the few parcels which have come forward at an improvcmentofCdtolspersack . Stale cha mbered lots , Of which the great bulk now in warehouse consists , were difficult to quit on former terms . There was but little inquiry for either oats or oatmeal , and the previous curcency was barely obtainable . Intelligence of the Itoyal . assent having been ( riven to the Corn law Importation Bill , the discussion of which has for so long a time kept the trade in a state of suspense , was received here this morning ; and , although this event has for the past few •' ays been calculated on , no report of its influence on the market can at present be mad ' e The transactions in all articles are still only to a very limited extent . The stocks of fresh sack flour , suitable for bakers use , are reduced to a narrow compass , and such descriptions move off into consumers bands , as they arrive , at full prices .

      ¦ Wariunctov CoiiN , Market . —At this market there was a moderate attendance , and a fair quantity of wheat offering , of which the farmers were willing sellers , at an advance of 3 d per bushel on last Week ' s prices .

Some inquiry for Foreign , to be delivered after payment of the duty , without , however , leading to business . Of spring Corn very little shown . There has been considerable inquiry during the week for bonded , and some business has been done at full prices . In rapefecd and linseed nothing doing . Rape cakes are without alteration .

      Driver , arrived a t Singapore , from sea , on the 22 nd inst ., and as some particulars of thtj cause of her unexpected visit cannot fail to prove interesting , we are enabled to present our readers with some account of her cruise . It appears that the Admiral received orders from the Admiralty to increase the force at present engaged in the war with thn natives of New Zealand . Her Majesty ' s ship Castor and the war-steamer Driver were ordered to prepare > virii aJ ] ilhpntch for tiie scrrico nt Nv \ r Zealand , notwithstanding that the boilers of the latter were represented to be ( and as the result proved to be correct ) in nn unfit state for so distant ai'd important aservice . However , as a survey was held on ibe boilers of both steamers , Vixen and Driver , at Hong Kong , and the latter reported as the most efficient vessel of the two ,

      there was no alternative but to despatch the Driver immediately . The Driver accordingly sailed from Hong Kong on the morning of the 27 th September , intending te take the eastern route to New Zealand . The Castor sailed from Hong Kong at the sams time , for the route through Anjer Strait , and to the south ward of Australia . The driver arrived at the island of Bataiii the largest of the Bushee group , on the 30 th of September , and immediately set about getting a supply of firewood to enable her to pursue her voyage . Batan , the capital ot

      the island of that name , is inhabited by Spaniards and Malays , in all about 5 . 000 . The Bxecutivo atMan . Ha sends a military and a political resident , and soldiers every threeyears , to relievo the garrison stationed there ; the farce consists of nn officer and thirty men . The island produces vegetables , maize , tobacco , and breadfruit , the whole of whicli , with goats , bullocks and poul . try of all sorts , me remarkably cheap and abundant ; good fresh water is also to be obtained-. The naSives are , for the most part , Christians , being , under the spiritual control of a padre in each district . There is a cou .

      evening the Ireeto , which had been fresh all day , increased in violence , and at midnight it blew a per feet humcane . Every storm sail which wa& attempted to be set to steady the ship was bW » to rlbWis and for twelve hours sIiowm left to the mercy of the wind and waves ; no canvass being able to withstand Hie v . olence of tho wind . Towards the , evening of the 7 th , and on the morning of the 8 th , the gale abated , and settled into a moderate breeze from the south-east . The typhoon commenced from the northeast , and gradually dre , w round to the south-east . The

      sea is represented to J / ave run terrifically high ; the ship behaving remarkably well , but several of herbm warjjg and rails , hammock nettiwgs , cook-houses , ic ., werB washed away , also the gig and life buoy from the stem , as well as nearly drowning all the flive stocft on board . On the afternoon of the .. 8 th , the Driver commenced steaming , when , shortly after , a leak was found to gome extent in th » midship boiler , which was accordingl y shut off . At ten o ' ctock ; p . m ., howler , a great rush of hot water wa » observed from the space between the starboard and midship boilers . At . this juncture , the chief engineer , with great risk and difficulty , happily succeeded in opening the safety-valve , and drawingttre fires ; a » d thereby prevented a greater injury than would otherwise have occurred . The war steamer was now in lather an ««« -u ,, u ¥ i » ail in hswi > run tflrrificnllv liiuh < *\ . u .

      awakard condition , being without either steam or sails . Upon examining the injury the boilers had sustained , it was found that four days would be required for their temporary repair ; and , not having sufficient fuel to reach Guam in her then crippled state , and it was deemed ad . Visable to bear her up , which was done under the square sails , these being the only ones whicb tyhphoon left unscathed . On the 14 th she again commenced steaming , but finding a leak ia the bottom of the minship boiler , which , working at full , power , greatly increased , she steamed from the north end of Luzon to Singapore , with the expansive gear which the admirable slide-valves of Messrs . Seaward and Co ., the makers of her engines , enabled her to do with such advantage that she averaged upwards of seven knots nn hour , consuming little mor » than half the quantity of fuel which she would have dona working at full power . The barometer at the height of the typhoon fell to 29 i inches / and we hear that , ev ? n

      working expansively as she did , so great was the leak in her midship boiler , that the temperature of the water in her bilge was 185 degrees ; indeed , cold water had frequently to be let into the ship to prevent the officers and crew from being parboiled . We wonder that the Basbee Islands are not more visUted by ships , especially as Stock and provisions at Hongkong are so expensive . The Go . vernor and inhabitants are represented to be anxious to trade , and vessels frequenting that place may be assured of a hospitable reception from all , net excepting the worthy friars inhabiting the convent . As a specimen of the price of provisions , on the authority of our intelligent informants , we may observe that bullocks are to be had from 7 to 10 dollars each ; goats , 1 rupee to 2 rupees , which are said to be very fine ; and pigs at 1 rupee each ; vegetables , fruit , < fec .. almost for carrying away , lor such is their abundance , that scarcely anything is demanded for a sufficient supply for a ship ' s use . — -Strait ' s Times

      ( Singapore ) . ^ . Tire Late Mr . B . R . Hatdo . v . —On Tuesday a meeting of gentlemen took place at the chambers of Mr . Sergeant Talfourrt , in Serjeant' inn , to devise some means of providing for the widow and daughter of the late Mr . Hay don , the melancholy circumstances of whose decease arc still fresh in the recollection of our readers . Among the gentlemen present were . Lord Morpetfi , Sir J . G . Ilobhouse , M . P ., Dr . Bowring , M . P ., Mr . W . Hamilton , Count D'Orsay , the Rev . Dr . Croly , Mr . Serjeant Talfourd , and Mr . Jerdan . Lord Morpetli was called upon to preside , and his Lordship , in common with every gentleman who took part in the proceedings , expressed his deep concern at the deplorable death of Mr . Haydor i , and

      his sympathy with that unfortunate gentleman ' s widow and daughter , who , in consequence of the embarrassed state of Mr . Haydon ' s affairs , are left in a State of utter destitution . Several resolutions were proposed and adopted , the first embodying an expression of deep regret at Mr . Haydon ' s death , which had been caused by distraction of mind consequent on his pecuniary . embarrassments . The second and third resolutions were in the following terms— " That without presuming to © ffer any j udgment as to the place which Mr . Haydon will ultimately fill in the annals of his art , or any opinion on the controversies in which he was sometimes ensaged , this meeting feels that the efforts of his geniusand the circumstances of misfortune

      , which obstructed them , justify an expression of public sympathy with his widow and daughter . That such " expression would be most fitly conveyed by securing a permanent provision to his widow and daughter , left wholly destitute by his death ; and that a public subscription be opened for that purpose . " Mr . Serjeant Talfourd read a letter he had received from Sir R . Peel , expressing his regret that the pressure of public business would prevent him from attending the meeting , and stating that the Queen had been pleased to grant Mrs . Haydon a pension from the Civil List of 501 . a-year . The right hon . baronet requested , that in the event of a subscription being determined upon , his name might be put down for 100 / . as a contribution from his

      private purse . It was stated that Lady Peel had assigned a pension of 25 Z . a-year to Mrs . Haydon out of a fund over which , from her position , she has control ; and that Sir Robert Peel , having found that a son of Mr . Haydon , who held a situation in the Customs , was of sufficient standing to receive promotion , immediately gave him a step in rank . Tise prompt generosity evinced by Sir R . Peel in promoting the welfare of this unfortunate family was warmly eulogised ; and the following resolution was unanimously adopted : — " That the thanks of this meeting be respectfully tendered to the Right Hon . Sir R . Peel , for his prompt and considerate attention to the application made to him for assistance by the deceased Mr . Haydon , and for bis mnnificient acts of kindness towards his family . " . Lord Morpeth ,

      Sir J . C . Ilobhouse , Mr . Serjeant Talfourd , and Mr . W . Hamilton , were appointed trustees of the subscription . A committee was formed to carry the resolutions into effect , and a vote of thanks haying been given to the noble chairman the proceedings terminated . The . subscriptions announced at the meeting ( including Sir R . Peel ' s contribution of 1001 . ) amounted to upwards of iOOl . It was stated by several gentlemen , well acquainted with the position of Mr . Ilaydon ' s family , that the peculiar circumstances of the case rendered prompt exertion on their behalf most essential : and a confident hope was expressed that the differences which had existed between Mr . Haydon and many of his professional contemporaries would not prevent them from aiding to alleviate the distress of the widow and daughter of a talented and able , though an eccentric and

      unfortunate artist . Coroner ' s Inquest . —On Wednesday , pursuant to adjournment , Mr . T . Wakley . M . P ., held an inquiry at the Rum Puncheon , Cross-street , Drury-lane ' , touching the death of Martha Grogan , aged three years . The chief object of the adjournment was for the production of a Mr . Lowe , who is in his 94 th year , and who administered certain pills to deceased . Alter a long investigation , the Coroner , having strongly reprehended the pursuit of Mr . Lowe ,

      observed , that although a clear prima fade case had been established against him , yet there was no liability attached to him , inasmuch as be had not administered the medicine for pecuniary gain , but , on the contrary , had purely a benevolent object in view . The Jury returned the subjoined verdict " We find that the deceased child died from natural causes , but at the same time we strongly reprobate the practice of Mr . Lowe , in administering medicines which were proved to be of an injurious character ; and the more so , he being totally ignorant of medical practice . "

      Case op Lock Jaw . —On Tuesday morning the following distressing case of lock jaw was admitted int » Guy ' s Hospital . A boy named James Lamb , aged 12 years , whose parents reside at 25 , Redcross-street , Soutlnvark , was playing in the garden with his companions on Thursday last , when he by some means mn a large nail or spike into his shoe , which penetrated his right toe . He took no notice at first of the accident , but on Sunday he was seized with vinleno pains in the stomach , which was speedily followed by a stiffness in the back . His pai-enfs became alarmed and on Monday called in the services of Mr . Oillinjr , surgeon , of High-street , who , on examining

      the lad , found that his teeth were firmly fixed , so as to prevent his taking any nourishment . He immediately pronounced the lad to be labouring Hnder letamts , or lack jaw . lie was removed to the above hospital , and died .-it eight o'clock the same evening . On Thursday week , as a man named Caple , residing near I'ill , was mowing- in a field at Abbot's LeL-h , belonging to Wni . Oliver Bigg , Esq ., he was suddenly stricken by a sun stroke . Medical assistance was promptly sent fot by Mr . Bigg , who was in the field at the time , and all conceivable means of resuscitation immediately tried , but to no purpose , for the poor man breathed his last in a few minutes lftftr his infliction .

      STATE OF TRADE . Leeds . —There has again been very little business done at the Cloth Halls , this week . Tiie result of the wool sales at Liverpool , and the sales in London , next week , will tend to settle the question of prices for the autumn , nnd until then little improvement is expected . Very few buyers have been down this week , and , in consequence , business has been dull in finished goods . ' The foreign houses ' . are also doing little , until they see how prices rule . —Leeds Mercury . Manchester . —We have had only a very moderate business in cloth this week ; tho very depressed state of the Indian and China markets has operated to produce great flatness here . Most kinds of goods suitable for those markets , therefore , are the turn lower . Yarns are also the turn in favour of the buyer , but heavy sales continue tobenuide .

      Beadi-obd . —The market was , in all its branches , viz ., wool , yarn , and pieces , so similar to what it has been this last two weks , that it is needless giving any report . On all hands it is stated that the new Glip is of most excellent quality , and the staplers have considerable stocks on hand . The spinners buy very sparingly , and for immediate consumption , and are working in great part at order , which keeps up the prices even to the present low rate . Some manufacturers' stocks of prices are very heavy . HuDDEnsFiELD . —Business , in all branches , has been comparatively at a stand to-day ; and there has been a general complaint of the want of trade . The goods that have met with any demand are good fancy patterns , suite'l

      to the approaching season . Manufacturers are mostlj engaged in preparing the winter goods , and although there are considerable orders in hand , there is not that healthy vigour which generally accompanies the preparation of being ready when the season has changed from the summer to the winter demand . This tardiness on the part of both merchant and manufacturer may be mainly attributed to the late political aspects of the country " ; but now that we are on the eve of a new era in comnier cial relations , as it is very probable that before we have again to report the state of this market , the free trade policy whicli lias required so many years of hard struggle to obtain , will Uave become the law of the land ; and that barrier , which has so long proved fatal ' to commercial enterprise , will be ( almost ) totally removed .

      Halifax . —There has been but a moderate extent of business to-day , botli in pieces aud yarn . Sales of long wool , too , are not extensive , and prices less firm than they were . Short wools continue rather scarce , and in fair request . Kochdalg Flannel Market . —The flannel market still remains inactive , and the demand for goods has been very limited . Some few of the manufacturers were buying to complete some orders , or the business done would have been but little . The wool market has undergone but little change since last week . Barnsdev . —The trade of this town is still in a depressed state . The number of hands out of employ , or partially occupied , causes considerable distress in " this neighbourhood . Lkicesteu . —There is no improvement to announce in tho demand for manufactured goods this week . Worsted yarns remain the same . There luis been but little doing in wools , buyers holding oft" until the fair , which will take place on Wednesday .

      Nottingham . — : More busiucss has been doing in finished laces than for some time ps- " st , but at very far from remunerative prices . Plain nets are slowly ( although stocks in the white are very loiv , and not- 'l . trgor thali usual in thisrough state ) , owing to want of confidence in prices , which hare'been , nevertheless , for some weeks below prime cost . Quillings . arc almost without quotation . French lace goods are importing in large quantities , and iitteet the English silk lace trade even more than thev limit tho demand for our cotton goods ; in both their dress and finish is peculiar , -. ind will repay for attention here . Cops and yarns are in good demand for other markets , and maintain late rates of price .
