The reports as to the potatoes arc worse , a « d there is every appearance of a considerable failure of the crop .

STATE OF TRADE . LzsBa . —On Saturday there was a full average amount of goods sold at the Cloth-halls , but on Tuesday there was a thinnerattendance of buyers , and lessbusiness was done . There was very little business done on either day in fine and middle qualities of cloth , but in heavy winter goods , and fancy cloakings , thero was a pretty fair demand . Prices are without any alteration , and the stocks on hand are moderate . Moro buyors have been in the town this week than for some time , and although the foreign houses are doing less , there has nevertheless been an average amount of business , effected . ,, . Manchester . —We have had only a limited business in Cloth this weelr , except in good printing flotha , which are not only in demand / but are also rather higher . Apprehensions are now seriously entertained tnat the failure of the potato crop and the consequent advance of all kinds
of Grain , will lead to a limited business through the winter , which makes anxious sellera hut cautious buyers . The market closes on the whole rather heavily . Yarns are heavy sale , except the course qualities—such find buyers at full rates . Bradford . —There was a good supply of wool , me staplers were very firm as to price , as stocks eannotbB rBplaced at less money . The spinners buy with more vigour , hut the disproportion between the price of yarn and wool checks all speculation . There is a brisk trade in yarn both for the home aud export trade . The spinners refuse to contract for fresh orders without an . advance , as the business now done U anything but remunerating . The price of wool no doubt checks very much the trade Of Bradford . There was a good demand lor pieces , but the manufacturers could not obtain higher prices . Halifax . —The market has been duller to-day than for some weeks past , both in wool and manufactured goods :
prices without alteration . Rochdam Flannel Makket . —The flannel market hu been rather better to day , and more business has been done than on the previous Monday . The wool market has undergone little or no change this week . Nottingham . —There are but small stocks on hand , either of finished or rough lace goods . The demand is slowly , but satisfactorily increasing ; and , by cautiously supplying the market with suitable articles , the makers have again the chance of working their machinery to some profit . It is quite certain that all heavy goods cannot be made without an increase in prime cost , an advance of 2 d . per lb . having been established upon the prices of all yarns from No . 80 to 160- Thesenumbers are likely to go higher still . On the whole our prospects seems toimprove . The best lace goods were never more universally worn than st the present time .

ally ill-informed as to what passes in foreign countries . One ot them , for instance , only a few days since , eame out with a flaming article , in which it was gravely asserted . that Scotland felt herself degraded as the vassal of England : that she was cruelly oppressed by E » gla «< 3 , that the reading of the novels of Walter Scott had revived the patriotism of her people ; and that they were determined to throw off the English yoke ! It is really difficult to believe that such trash can have been published ; but there it stands black ui on white . The writer seems to labour under the delusion that Scotland h a conquered country , and , as such , annexed to England ; whereas the truth is , that it is not conquered at all , and that it ia bound to England by mutual ties and
mutual interest ; that in fact England and Scotland are not two nations , but one—the Nation of Great Britain . Nay , the strict truth is , that it is England that is annexed to Scotland—not Scotland to England ; for a Scotch king inherited the English crown . [ Bjikreally its not worth while to say a word ab > ut FUC . hj extravagant nonsense as this of Scotland talkihgSiSout separating from England , or England from Scotland . The supposition , too , that Scotland is oppressed , is monstrously absurd . The man who could ! moke such a declaration , must be very ignorant , or he would have known thateTen if England had the . inclination to oppress Scotland ' s sons are made of stuff too stern to submit to oppression . The
same knowing gentleman who has discovered the determination ef the Scotch to shake oft' the union with England , and to start in business as a nai ' on on their own account , hns also found out that thi Wo '* h —pray , don ' t laugh-r-likewise intend to fly n tin face of perfidious Albion , and to have a king ot their own . Taffy , we know , is an irascible little n an , brimful of eelf-impoi tance ; but who would have < x « pected such a mighty resolve , after so many hundred years' union with Mr . Bull ?

DREADFUL EXPLOSION OF A POW DER MILL Gbeekock , Thdbsday Night . —Most distressing intelligence reached here this afternoon of a dreadful exploaion of the powder-mills , at Millhouse , the property of Mr . M'Cullum , situate on the Korrygide of the kylei of Bute , in Argyleshire , by which nearly the whole of tha works , whick were considered extensive , were destroyed , and melancholy to relate , nine persons lost their lives . As far as we have been able to learn , it appearB the workmen entered the mill at the usual time , six ft ' clock , on Tuesday morning . The duty of tke unfortunate men , or , at leaat , part of them , was , it seems , to attend to the charging of barrels , preparatory to the removal ef the powder to the magazines , which was carried on in a kind of store , or warehouse , some distance from the working
part of the works , when , from some cause or other , the nature of which will , probably , never be known , an ex . plosion took place ; and when we state that a very larg « quantity of powder , about four tons , was deposited in this building , the consequence , as all may suppose , was most awful . The warehouse , and all the surrounding erections were blown to atoms , and the poor fellows met an instant death . Their bodies were hurled to an immense distance , but their identity was utterly impossible , so honibiy were they mutilated . The blast is described by the inhabitants of the adjacent towni , to hare been of a ' terrific description . It burst into the air with a tremendous forco , shaking every building within two or three miles of the property , while for the moment the whole atmosphere appeared filled with flame of an intense nature . By many it was believed t © be the approach of an earthquake ; and people were to be seen running from thier dwellings in a state of the greatest
excitement and terror . It is reported five other workmen attached to the mills , who were in another part of the works , were drerdfully burned , two . of whom were not expected to reoover , the Oreenoah Advertiur adds , that the event has created the greatest sensation in the county . So dreadful was tha explosion , that it is said to have been beard and felt at a distance of twenty miles . It is also stated that ft woman living in a house one mile off was standing beside one of her windows at the time , and the effect of the casuatity was such that the glass was broken at a moment , and her face literally blacksned with the powder . It is altogether inexplicable how SO many men were in the warehouse at one time , as wo understand it is a peremptory regulation that no more than two ' shall be on account admitted in these hazardous premises , but the reasoa remains at present unknown . We believe this is the second time the mills have been blown up within the last four years . Most of the unfortunate sufferers have left females ti deplore their loss .

A HUSBAND'S REVENGE . The GaKile it Tritnmaux gives the following details of a'" murder" lately committed in Paris , which we should call "killing nomurder " : — " Relations of business , which led at length to personal intimacy , had existed betwe en If . Lejeune and M . Jay , the latter ofjnrhom has made his name well known by hit mechanism , called 'Jayotype , ' for which he has taken eut several patents . M . Lcjeune , who is a master tailor , is a remarkably good-looking man , about 28 years old , As to M . Jay , he was turned of 40 , aud rather ill than good looking . II . Lajeuna , however , whose wife is young and pretty , had conceived a jealousy of M . Jay . His suspicions , which were at first vaguehad latterly become more fixed , and to such an
ex-, tent was iir * mind affected , that , after having broken off all relations with Jf . Jay , he is said to have informed the commissary of police of the quarter , that if he should evtr find M . Jay alone with his wife , he would proceed to the last extremities . Things were in this state , when on Tuesday morning , II . Lfjeune told his wife he had re . CQired a pressing order , which compelled him to set out immediately for Rouen , and at about four in the afternoon he proposed that his wife should accompany him as far as the railroad station , in the Rue St , Lazare . She did so , and did not leave him until she had seen him take his seat in the train . This pretended departure , however , was only a feint . Lejeune had no sooner arrived at the first station of Asnieres , than he left the Rouen train and returned to Paris by one from Versailles , He
proceeded to Rue Neuve Vivienne , and placed himself in a position to watch the shop of M . Jay . We are informed that whilst he was there watching , he saw a letter delivered to M . Jay , which he concluded w « from Madame Li-jeune . About nine o ' clock in the evening , M . Jay , whose wife and children are in the country , left his shop , and gave instructions to hia shopmen , which indicated that he would not return until a very late hour . He proceeded to the Rue Montmartre , followed by Lejeune , and M . Juy having entered the house where Madame Lrjeuoe was . the husband after waiting some time went in also , and by raenns of a second key which he carried penetrated into his room , nnd saw the guilty parties in bed , with a night-light burning near them . At this sight Li'jeune lost all control over himself , and taking a pistol from bis
pocketfiredatM . Jftj . buthisjhandbeinKaeitated his victim was untouched . He then drew foi h K SOU : au poignard , which he was in the habit of carrying in the pocket of his paletot , and stabbed Monsieur Jay in the breast several times . Monsieur Jay , attacked in his sleep , could offer no resistance , and expired after uttering a few words . As to Mdme . Lejeune , she was more dead than alive , and could rather imagine than see the scene that was passing . When the unfortunate Jay was dead , Lejeune , who had in some degree recovered from his fury , went down stairs and said to the porter of the hcuse , 'I have just killed my wife's lover go and tell the Commissary of Police and the Procureur du Roi that I am waiting for thei& / Tho
porter went instant ] y to the office of the commissary , M . Couesna , in the Marche St , Joseph , exactly opposite the hnuse in which this dreadful affair had taken plaue . Vt " » n the commissary arrived , Lejeune surrendered him-¦ elf and said he was ready to answer forwhat he had dona The commissary placed a guard ovsr him during tl e night , and on the following morning : wnt him to tho Prefecture of Police . In the course of &e day , the Procureur du Roi had Lejeano brought to ft e house ' and confronted with the dead body . He replied his former declaration with muckcalmnegB , and wig then taken lo tht prison of the Coterie .

SUPPOSE ^ INCENDIARISM IN ESSB 5 , Wbhhikotoh , Monday . A fire of a most aT ,. ful character , involving the del . traction of property to , enpnaous amount , fcroke out about forty minutes pist ^ i gbt o ' clock on Sunday eveniog on the farm premises occti ^ 'i 8 ^ by " * Hill , % most respectabie yeoman , and a . t . « 7 oM inhabitant of this parish . . ' - ¦ '" '¦ Wenr . togtonisa » maHi » iUa 8 . » situate about a mila and a half from Purfleet , in . a m ^ -westerly direotion . Mr . Hill ' s farm stands near the jo . nction of tho road » leading to Hainham and Avelej , abi 1 utl 50 jardg beyond a road side inn , known as the Lennarc ^ Arms . The fa rm house in which" Mr . Hill resided , with th " """* yard , barn , and stable * , form a sort ot squan '» enclosing the cattle yard , and altogether covering an ore . « xceedingaa acre of ground . The northern end of tbV » ck yard abutg on a lane , all the other aspects of the homestead are incloied and sheltered . , _ _
The fire was first discovered at the hour abovtf . named ! , by police constable Hamilton . The flames at this time had scarcely extended beyond one corner of the stt ic ^> thatportion on fire closely approximating on the lai ™ befora alluded to . Hamilton immediately ran acroSk ' the yard to Mr . Hill's house , and aroused the inmates / after which he gave the alarm at the Lennard Arms , and messengers were dispatched in various directions to obtain fire engines , &c . The garrison at Purfleet , distemO as before stated , about a mile and a half , supplied threa powerful ones , which were upon the spot in a very short period , accompanied by a large body of soldiers and other persons employed within the arsenal . A fourth engine was supplied by Sir Thomas Barret Lennard , of Bethers . Mr . Marden , of Rainham , supplied a fifth engine , and
two smaller OttbS from the adjoining Parishe 9 WM 6 fllsa brought to the spot within an hour of the outbreak . Before the arrival of any of them , however , the fire had extended itself so fearfully , that any attempt te do more than confine its ravages to the stack jard and outbuildings of the homestead was at once seen to be hopeless . Before midnight the whole contents of the stack yard , consisting of six wheat stacks , averaging Bfty quarters In eaeh , a rye stack , a barley stack , and three hay itacks , two barns , the bags of each filled with barley , and one of them containing fourteen quarters of wheat ; a cowhouse , tno sheds , one wajrgdn , three carts , a threshing machine and a stack of 300 hurdles were entirely consumed , the dwelling house , granary , and stables closely adjoining the same , Wing alone saved ftbTA the ravages of the devouring element .
There appears to be no doubt that the fire had been the work of an incendiary , although as yet no positive suspicion rests on any party . The loss is altogether estimated at about £ 1 , 500 .

tmsmah at Dartford . —Un * nday evening an inquest was held befora the coroner for Weat Kent , at the Dartford union , to inquire into the circumstances connected with the death of Theodore Ritzdalt , a young Russian ( said to be of noble family ) , who committed suicide on the previous day by shooting himself . From the appearance of the body the deceased was about twenty-four years of age . His clothea were of a superior foreign make , but much worn , particularly his boots ; he had worn no Stocking 3 . The surgeon of the union deposed that on the previous day , when the deceased was brought in , he was in a state of collapse , and expired m a very short time He examined the body , and found that death
had been caused by excessiveho » morrhase , internally and externally , proceeding from a small buliet wound just below the right breast . The ball had evidently passed through the lungs . A labouring Irishman deposed that whilst passing through a field between Dartford and Greenhithe , he heard the report of a pistol , and on turning round saw deceased ia the act of falling . A pistol was lying near . He ran up and asked him what was the matter , and he faintly replied , " Memory , memory . " Witness obtained assistance , and took deceased to the union workhouse . Mr . Strauss ( a teacher of the German language ) said he kRew the deceased well . He was a Russian and was nobly connected . Previously to his coming to this country he had been a philosophical student .
lie came over here in search of an uncle ( a colonel in the Prussian army ) , whose aid he required to assist him in malting good his claim to a large estate , of which he had been deprived . lie was unsuccessful in his endeavours to find his relation , and was much reduced . On Thursday witness received a note at his house in Whitechapel , written in pencil by the deceased , and ' posted the previous day at Plumstead in Kent . It stated his intention to commit suicide in that neighbourhood . In it was enclosed a letter b his " beloved Leonora . " a lady to whom he was betrothed at Wiesbaden in Germany . There was also . a lock of her hair , and some worked lace bearing the motto " Remember me . " This letter , part of which was read by the coroner , was wr itten in the most affectionate lancuase . and said
that he had risked all for her , and that a sure ball would end all his troubles . Witness had no doubt that disappointment and distress drove him to commit suicide . Other evidence went to show that on his person was found eleven ballets , a canister of powder , a small paper of tobacoo , and a lucifer box . besides a diary written in German , the last leaf of which was written in pencil , dated Wednesday , August 19 . It stated that he had reached his 24 th . year , that his troubles and fear of want had driven him to the deed , aa he was reduced to the last 7 d . and could not beg . The jury returned a verdict , " That the deceased Theodore Ritzdalt died from tha effect of si pistol shot from his own hand , but in what state of mind he was at the time there was no evidence to prove . "
Aristocract of the ^ Skix . —The Liverpool Mer wry reports the following police case : —On Tuesday two American sailors , named Alonza Lewis and George Brookes , were placed before Mr . Rushton under the following circumstances : —It appears that a poor IliDdoo , who sells tracts , went into the house where the sailors were for the purpsse of selling his books . He succeeded in selling one , for which he gob paid . One of the accu-ed seized the remainder of his stock , and destroyed them . On the Hindoo remonstrating , he was immediately , with much abuse , ordered out , and , not instantly complying with the order , both the sailors assailed him . lie was beaten and kicked , and fled for safety into the street . Tho poor fellow was followed by hia asaailant ? , who , as Mr . Moss , one of the witnesses , stated , beat and
kicked him about the head and breast in the most dastardly manner . Theseamera made no defence . As soon as this case had been heard , an elderly man , a negro , stepped forward to prefer another charge . The negro stated that , as he passed the same sailors , one of them squirted his spittle into complainant ' 3 ta . ee , and , on beiag renlonsd'ated with the negrO wag immediately knocked down by one of the sailors , whilst tho other threw at him a large stone . The ne ^ ro had not given the slightest provocation . Their cowardly conduct did not stop here ; for a poor woman , an Englishwoman , who ivaa carrying a mulatto child in her arms , was struck in the face , and the child knocked down . In both these cases no defence was made . These republican sailors were
excited by the dark skin of their victims to abuse and injure them . Mr . Rushton , on inquiry , found that the negro had shipped on a voyape to Calcutta , and that to detain him until the sessions would but inflict further injury ; he therefore did not send them for trial . He , however , spoke with indignation of the brutal conduct of the prisoners , and told them that such conduct in England could not be endured ; that the laws admitted no difference between white and black ; and that the utmost punishment the justices could award for the offence was much too light . After consulting with Mr . Christopher Rawdon . who sat on the bench , Mr . Rushton ordered each of the sailors to pay the sum of al . for each assault , and in default of payment to be imprisoned two months ;
he also ordered them to fiBd bail to keep the peace , or , in default , to be imprisoned four months . We trust this prompt and salutary punishment may serve to convince such of eur American visitors as venture to beat and kick a man because he has a black skin , that the law is too strong for them . We are glad to say that , in general , the American sailors are as well behaved and as respectable as our own . Now and then however , the curse which slavery brings appears , and we have the results in acts of this kind . IAelaxchovx Accidkht . —Gibraltar , July SI . On Saturday the Russian Imperial jacht Nereide and the Louisa Royal Western yacht were signalled as returning from the eastward , with their flags halfmast high . Much anxiety was naturally felt . Ora
entering the bay , the Russian hoisted up his flag to the mast head , and it was evident that , whatevae was the misfortune , it had occurred on board tha Louisa . It was soon ascertained that Mr . Allan ,, * gentleman who had accompanied the owner of tl : sr yacht on bis trip from England , was a corpse oa board . It appears tbathe attempted to laud ouithe beach at Tetuan , in a boat which , though manned with seven men , was capsized by the rollers nsar the shore . The dingy was sent with three meu in her to render assistance ; she was also capsized ; aad the result was , that Mr . Allan and three men were drowned , including tho cockswain . M : r > . Allan ' s and one of the men ' s bodies were washed' ashore * where Mr . Butler , the British Vi « 8-ConsuJ , caused them to be buried with the usual ceremonies , unite * the direction of t h * governs ^
Hache-Ilacbe . The anguish ef Mr . Peming , LaUy Catherine , and those remaining on board the Loaisa , was poignantly severe ; but no atteation or expresiion of sympathy , that such n melaacl . oly wcasion permitted , was wanting on the part of the oftcers ot the Nereide , which kept compasv with the Louisa during the whole period of her detention m the bay of Tetuan . As soon as Prince Henry of iho Netherlands heard of the distressing accident , lus Roy . z Highness , with that graciousness and ben evolence which characterises him , immediately despatched an officer to present his . condolence and t «» der f ™ services as might be squired .

PART OF A FBMAtE ! F 6 TJ »» MTiTHEiRlVER AT GREENWICH UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMBTANCES / 3 ; : | » ^ ' . '¦ | | 0 ^ - ; On Saturday morning part of a youn ^ female , consist-Ing of the legs , on which were a pair of Adelaide bootf , and a part of the body as far as the chest antirely diveited of its clothing , were discovered at low water near th « landing at the College wharf , Greenwich , when the remains were conveyed at onco to the bone house of St . Aspalth Church . The circumstance was immediately communicated to the various police station ! in the metropolis , and in the course of yesterday a poor Irish woman named Donovan , living at No . 24 , New-street , George-strest , St . Giles ' s , stating she had a daughter missing since the 22 th of April Just , and who th » sup . posed had been drowned , camo down to view the re-. ,,
mains . Upon her seeing them , although 80 greatly diifigured from the length of time which they must have been under water , immediately recognised the toei , in consequence of « ie peculiarity , and when the boots were produced , she stated they were the same which ih «« had bought h « r daughter a few days previous to her being mlising . The suspicious circumstances of this ffair are as follow * . '—On last Barter Sunday herdaught « r attended hig h mass in the morning , she aftwwards came home »» d partook of some dinner , soon after that dressed , « nd told her mother » he wa » only going to h » ve gossip this was about three o ' clock in the afternoon j an hour afterwards her cousin , named Mary Quindon , saw three strange young men speak to her near a
publicbouse In Wardour-street , she heard them aik her to have something to drink , she then went In with them ; on their coming out she said they wanted her to go to Greenwich , but not having any money she declined # 6 l&g , up 6 & which one of the thrao pulled out a handful of silver , and Mid , " . Never mind , I have plenty , " upon this they walked across the ( trees with her , much ta the surprise of the COUBin , « I She considered her a very prudent young woman ; they evidently wished to get her out of sight of her cousin , by their manner , and the signs which they passed amongst themselves . A short time after this the game three young men were s « en by ano ther young woman coming out of a different public-house with deceased . This was the last time she had been seen , and
the mother , in consequence of her daughter not returnlag the same evening , gave information at the St . Giles ' s police station . Since the affair Mary Quindon discovered ike rceiaencft of the joung man who showed the silver to be at 71 . Wflrdoar-street , Oxforfl-Street , and in consequence the mother made an application thxte months ago at the Marlborough Police Courtfor his apprehension , but the magistrate declined interfering under the cir . cumstances , About six weeks since , being informed that a young female had been picked up near the Strand , the mother went to identify the body , which proved to be one of the two females who were drowned off Yauxhallbridge . She returaed homo , and after standing at her own door crying about ten minutes a strange young man came up and asked if the body was that of her daughter .
Upon an answer in the negative , he said , " I was on board a steamboat ftt Westminster when she ( the deceased ) with three young men , came on board , and the boat had hardly left the pier ten minutes before she fell overboard . " After he had said thin , he immediately went away . The impression left on the mind of the mother since that time , and also the cousin , was th » t some foul play bad taken place , more particularly became the deceased wag never known to go out with any young men before . The remains are in such a frightful condition as to preclude the possibility of a medical man giving a decided opinion ; but in consequence of the above facts having being made known to the palice authorities , the necessary steps have been taken to apprehend the parties who were last seea in her empACV .
