that , in a moral point of view , they were jutt , and deaefving tho support of every good and reasonable man ; , ' but that it wpuld . be better to"get a repeal of , the Corn Laws firs ^ aud then agitate for the Charter . . There was obb observation Jhat the Rev . Mr . Baker made which . is worthy of notice ,, here—that . he was aware- thst there was not . , a dissenting minister in England , but was favourable to . the fijiuciplea of the Charter ; the lads allowed ) ihej ( jia to proceed without any interruption , imt ^ they . Bi ^ bmitteda resolution ; then a working man in the gallery of the chapel , . asked if they Would allow ' him to state his opinion , but tb » liberty-toying humanity-monger , and fair-dealing self-elected chairman . Baker , said that he could
not allow discussion there ; and if any opposition to the proceedings toojt plaoe , he would immediately disaolv ' e the . lneetipg . Ves , aaid . jhe , you had better not get myteeririga up . for if you do- ; , but bethinking him that ^ would not do to , show bis tyranoioal disposition there , he said no more ; for there < was ' hot mote , than a dozen persons there that wasJaycurable to their nostrum ; an , d half of . those were ' actually ashamed of the proceedings . When ha saw that no way could be done but what would throw disgrao » upen them , he called upon any one present to coma forward and sign their uames to become members \ there were just three that put down their names ^ The Chairman then dissolved the meeting . A person" in . the body of the chapel , informed the meet- /
ing that there . would be a meeting in the Chartist ropm immediately , and wished-all to adjourn thereto ; ahW another { ndiridiial then stated . that if the Repealers would go with them , they would give them a fair hearing , and would discuss their , principles with them calmly and fairly . ' , . When thja . person bad done speaking , three tremendous cheers jrere g iven for the Charter , and three dismal groans for le League Clique . At the door of the chapel there were a many of the constables In attendance . The meeting in the Chartist Room was very numerously attended , and there were some very good remarks made upon the conduct of the League generally . It was resolved to get up a tea party ou New year ' s Day , ' the profits to be given , to £ upport the next Convention . ' ' '"' '""

its charred appearance , would seem to nave been smouldering fur some time . It was fortunately discovered before the flames had attained any great height , aud on alarm being given , the engines were speedily on the spot , though it was some time before they could play for the want of water , the pipes being all empty , and a message having to be despatched to-Woodhouse Moor , before a supply could be obtained ; notwithstanding this , we are happy to say , that the flames were soon got under , and were confined to the room in which they were first discovered .

There was not much passing ; in Wheat at our market tins morning , and the business done in FJohr was chiefly in retail , without variation from the currency of tms day se ' nnight . Oats aud Oatmeal were likewise in , but limited reauest . and the trade in aUolherartielea
was of a very languid character . Xiv-KBPOOL Corn Maskbt , Mondat , Dec . 20 *—With the exception of about 7 , 0 ^ 7 . leads of Oatmeal from Ireland , the week ' s imports of Grain , &o . either thence or coastwise , are of very moderate amount . The arrivals from foreign portf . are comprised in 1 , 855 qra of Peaa , aud 502 brfe of Flour ; but from Canada there are reported 4 , 804 qrs of Wheat , and 12 . 715 bris of Flour , all , for the . present , going into bond . Upon a moderate demand holders of free Wheat have been enabled to maintain the prices of this day sennight , and tovrards the middle of the week some further transactions took place in foreign
Wheat to- arrive from Mediterranean ports ; pnbably aboijt 8 , 000 qra so changed hands , Odessa and Polish at 35 s to 47 s , Barletta 49 s to 50 s per qr , cost on board and freight inoladed . At Tuesday ' s market duty-paid barrel Flour met a tolerably fair sale at 36 s 6 d to 37 s Cd per 106 lbs : at these ratea the transactions since have been limited . Fully previous ratea had been demanded for Oats and Oatmeal , but the sales of either article have proceeded slowly ; of the former there are few of fine quality offering . In Barley , Beaiis , or Peas , there has been little passing : prices for each quoted without variation .
