      Doings Of The Anti-Cobs Law League.—At A...

      Doings of the Anti-Cobs Law League . —At a meeting of the League in Manchester last week , Mr . Cobden , their "great -gun , " detailed the intended doings of the body during the ensuing winter . In the course of a v « ry long speech , he thus expressed himself _i" I am glad to find that , under the auspices of our indefatigable , oar indomitable Chairman—( hear , hear )—the League is preparing for a campaign during tbe -winter months , of a more daring , and , I believe , of a more _successful nature than has ever yet been attempted by this iiifiuential and important _body—Ihtar , hear ) . I was struck to-day , as I entered the office of tbe League , with the appearance of four huge trusses , packed up and bound with -oords , such as you will see in a warehouse selling berry goods in this town

      I inquired , and found that they contained tracts—abont a quarter of a ton weight ef tracts—( applause )—addressed te four of our lecturers in different parts of the country , for immediate distribution—gratuitous distribution—( applause ) I waa curious to look at our books , to see -what kind of business we had been doing in the ' printing' line lately . The cotton printing is not good , and it promises to be worse ; but I found tbat tbe letter-press printing going on under this roof bad been exceedingly prosperous of late . Why , it appears that the League , has within the last three weeks ordered about 380 , 000 tracts from tbe printers . ( Loud applause . ) Now tbat is a pretty good three weeks' work ; but it Is nothing compared with what is wanted in the country . I think , under those circumstances , the public have

      only to know the means of usefulness that are at our disposal—that the harvest is ready , and waiting only for hands to gather it in ; and we shall have that amount of co-operation at the present moment , which will enable us to carry on this war during tbe winter with ten-fold energy to anything we have done before . We are spending , I understand , . £ 100 a week in agitating this question : why , we ought to have £ 1 , 000 a week , until next February , in order to ensure its _success _, [ applause ] . I am afraid Manchester has been too much a monopolist on this question . We have no desire , great as is the honour , to monopolise the whole of that vituperation which the monopolist press directs towards Manchester —[ applause ] . Let ns , therefore , offer a cordial partnership with these parts of the country wbich I am sure must now I j anxious to

      become colleagues with us in the present movement . ibere is Leeds , and Birmingham , _and Glasgow , and Sheffield , and the other large towns : i am sure they must be anxious—they bave shown their anxiety to put themselves alongside Manchester on this question . It is in the very nature of Englishmen that they should do so . And B _9 I say in reference to Leeds , Glasgow , Birmingham , and the rest , let us offer them that honourable position alongside us in the strife . Gentlemen , the first consideration is the sinews of war ; money is wanted to carry on this conflict as it should be carried on for the next six months . I know that our friend in the chair has got a project ( you will be startled when I tell you of it ) by which he intends to subsidize the country to tke extent of £ 50 , 600—( hear , hear . ) Well , that is

      just a million shillings . We had two millions of petitioners for the repeal of the Corn Laws ; where Is the difficulty of getting amiliion shillings ? Fifty thousand pounds may be raised by the Ltague , if they will only tell ihe country the money that is _wantsd _, and that it is wanted to accomplish an object by the beginning of the session of Parliament . I am sure the money is wanted , and I tell you of it now lest you should te taken by surprise , and it should produce any ill consequence —( laughter ) I tell you now that the Chairman and Council of the League are determined to raise £ 50 , 000 in the country . They'll lay an assessment upon _thecountiy —( arplause)—and they'll get the money , I am convinced , if you only co-operate , as I know you will co-operate with them . —( applause . )"*

      Aggregate Meeting Of The Municipal Elect...

      AGGREGATE MEETING OF THE MUNICIPAL ELECTORS . On Thursday at noon , a public meeting , attended by large masses of the Municipal electors and others was held in the Vicar ' s Croft ; Mr . Wm . Brook in the chair . The Chairman announced the business of the meeting by reading the placard convening it , and then observed that it behoved all classes of Municipal Electors , and th 1 ? working men in particular , to do all they could to stop the extravagance which

      wa 3 going on m the Town Council . Indeed if the working classes wished to make any impression upon the government it must be throngh the medium of the Town Council . The chairman called attention to the triumph gained by the Chartists in the election of chnrchwardens , and exhorted the working men of Leeds to stand forward npon principle only , looking neither to Whig nor Tory , but to fight out in their own persons the battle which they had so nobly begun in the eleotion to which he had alluded . Mr . Thomas Beaumont moved the first resolution , in effect , as follows : —

      That the meeting viewed with feelings of disgust and indignation , the manner in which the Town ¦ Co uncil had so shamefully squandered away the people ' s money , without regard to the object for which it was granted . They also entertained the same opinions respecting the despotic manner in which the Watch Committee had held itB meetings in secret , and also to the great expence of the day police , as well as of the proposition of the Council to purchase the tolls of the bridges . The resolution concluded by recommending the meeting to vote for none but honest and independent men , pledged to the Charter , and to carry out the principles of true economy to the very letter .

      Mr . Beiggs seconded the motion , and rated Mr . _Stansfeld , Mr . George Goodman , and others , for their apathy and indifference , in not carrying out their previously expressed opinions . Mr . Joshua Hobson then addressed the burgesses at some length , stating that they had been called npon to express their opinions in the matter of the good government of tbe town , throngh the means of the Town Council , and that they had been convened on that occasion because the time drew nigh when the burgesses would be called upon to exercise that privilege with which the law invested them , viz . to elect their representatives in the Town Conneil . There could be no doubt that upon the character of the men who represented them in the Council would mainly depend the good government of the town ,

      and as the burgesses had the election of snch men in their own hands , they could blame no one but themselves if the local government was not a good one . ( Hear , hear . ) Municipal government was good , because it was a useful government . It was also a responsible one , for it possessed the power both to tax the inhabitants and also to spend the money afterwards . Mr . Hobson then entered into a comparative statement of expenses under the old regime and the new . The expenses of the police in the year 1835 amounting to the sum of £ 4 , 368 8 s ., while in the last year it was £ ' 2-2 , 000 —( hear , hear , and shame !) He then alluded to the wilful extravagance of tho Council in giving Mr . Eddison £ 500 a year , when another gentleman had offered to do the duties for £ 100 ; and besides tbis , Mr . Eddison has a salary equivalent to £ 300 a year more , as Law Clerk under tho

      Improvement Act . Another fact worth notice was that of the Councils' having given Mr . Whitehead and another person £ 300 a-year _forlduties which Mr . Whitehead himself had offered to undertake for £ 150 , thereby carrying out a principle so different from that which would guide them in private transactions , for it would be just as reasonable for any individual member of the Council to say to a clerk who offered himself for a pound a week , " no , I will not give you one pound , but you shall have two "—( loud cheers and laughter )—Mr . Hobson then alluded to the old reason for requiring a reform in the corporation , viz . because these proceedings should be open , and not secret , and after exposing many of the absurdities of the Town Council , concluded by observing that the object of the burgesses should henceforth be good Government and not party ascendancy . ( The resolution was then pnt and carried . ) Mr . Barron proposed the next resolution , —

      " That this meeting cannot too highly commend the noble stand the men of _Hnnslet have taken in bringing forward as their candidate , at the election on the 1 st of November next , Mr . Joshua Hobson . This meeting would call upon them to use every exertion to « krry him triumphantly , aud would express its opinion that he is tbe only candidate before the people whom they can recognise as their candidate , and he is highly qualified to effect an alteration in the Council Chamber , both on account of the general knowledge he possesses , and his firmness and determination to withstand the enemies of the people . This meeting cannot but denounce the unprincipled and hypocritial

      condnct of the Whigs in bringing forward a candidate to oppose Mr . Hobson , and would call npon every honest man to scout it as it deserves , and then their paltry endeavours will , end in infamy and disgrace . That it is the opinion of this meeting tbat tbe Chartist body ought to take a determined stand npon the present occasion , and insist that the only man in whom they ean place any confidence be returned , and that it be expressed to tbe different Whig Committees that unless they will cause their candidate to be withdrawn at Hunslet , and support Mr . Hobson , they will not assist them either directly or indirectly , but will start candidates of tbeir own prinoiples and poll tbem to the last man . "

      Aggregate Meeting Of The Municipal Elect...

      He supported it with appropriate remarks , which _vre bave not room for . Mr . John Hargraves seconded the motion , which was earned on a Bhow of hands . Mr . Hobson -returned thanks , A deputation , consisting of Mr . Brooks , Mr . Thomas Beaamont , Mr . Wm . Barron , Mr . Francis Jackson , and Mr . John . Briggs was then appointed to wait _cpen the Wok ? Committees in every ward , with the previous _reserattons 5 and a vote ' of thanks to the Chairman having been carried by acclamation _, tie meeting dispersed .

      To The Editor Of The Northern Siar. Sis,...

      TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN SIAR . Sis , —The following letter has been sent to tbe Editor of the Leeds Mercury ; oar Committee request that you will have the kindness to insert it in year journal of Saturday next .

      to the editor of the lreds mercury . " Curses , like chickens , often come home to roest . " Old Proverb . Sir , —Having seen a paragraph in your paper of Saturday last respecting our candidate , Mr . Joshua Hobson , we deem it our duty , as the committee for the return of ihat gentleman , to address a few words to yeur readers , through the medium of your paper , in justification of our conduct in selecting Mr . Joshua Hobson as the most fit and proper person to represent the Burgesses of Hunslef in the Leeds Town Council .

      You hope , in the paragraph alluded to , that tbe Burgesses of Hunslet will not bo far disgrace themselves as to return an " Incendiary " to the Town Council . Now , Sir , as we are alene responsible for Mr . Hobson coming before the Burgesses of Hunslet , as it was from repeated solicitations on our part that he consented to do so , and as he is now at our service either to persevere in , or to abandon the contest , we consider the above paragraph as a foul , malicious , and barefaced calumny on ourselves , and we take the earliest opportunity to express our deepest abhorrence and disgust at both the paragraph and its author . We would ask in the name of justice , whenever Mr . Hobson committed one single act that might be construed iu the most _distant manner to incendiarism ; has he during the ten years which he has been a resident in the town of Leeds , ever acted any part unworthy of an honest , upright , and straightforward character , or a peaceable , orderly , and good oitieen i No , he

      never did . We have watched the conduct of Mr . Hobson ever since he entered into publio life , and we defy any man , either Wkig , Tory , Radical , or Chartist , to point to a single action during that period , which renders him unworthy the confidence of the burgesses of Hunslet . His publio life has been of a straightforward , uncompromising , and unblemished kind . His private one renders him dear to the hearts of all who know him , and worthy of a better name than that of an " incendiary , " even from his enemies ; but his enemies know full well tbat they dare not attack him publicly , where he would have an opportunity of defending himself ; they , dare not attend at the four publio meetings where he has addressed the burgesses of Hunslet , and there meet him face to / ace ; but they are obliged to obtain a hireling press to malign his character . Incendiary—it is a foul libel on the character of our candidate , and consequently on ourselves as his Committee .

      "He that robs me of my good name Robs me of that which not enriches him , But makes me poor indeed , " says _Shakspeare . We would ask how , in the name of common sense , can you , Sir , reconcile your conduct in thus stealing a man ' s character from him with the great truths of Christianity , which you pretend so much to admire ? " If thine enemy smite thee on the right cheek , turn to him the other also , " was a rule laid down by our Saviour ; but you , Sir , without any provocation , have endeavoured to rob Mr . Hobson of one of the noblest characteristics of a good man . But , Sir . the character of Mr . Hobson is above your paltry efforts to deface : the intelligent working men of Hunslet will respect Mr . H . as a straighforward

      and consistent defender of their rights , when you , Sir , will be looked upon as a base , cowardly , and malignant trafficer in politics . You cannot point to an action in Mr . Hobson's life whenever he once foreswore his principles , and promised his support to the levying of a church rate on the starving inhabitants of this Borough . Did he ever promise universal suffrage to the people , and then write lengthy articles against it ? Did he ever , in short , do anything unworthy of the confidence reposed in him by the generality of the working classes ? But , Sir , in the same paragraph you state that Mr . Robert Arthington has been put in nomination for the snffrages of the burgesses of Hunslet . How has he been put in nomination i Not by a publio

      meeting as Mr . Hobson was 1 No , Sir , your party know full well that they have so long tampered with the interests of the working classes , that they dare not face them at a public meeting . No ; they nominated Mr . Arthington at a hole-and-corner meeting ; and now if the working classes do not support him they will probably be told that they will be discharged from their employment , as has been the case heretofore . But , Sir , the working classes of Huns . et have begun to Bee that they have been deceived too long by the would-be-called Liberal party , and they have begun , therefore , to look for men on whom they can rely to represent them in the only place where the last of their once sacred rights will allow them .

      Hoping , Sir , that you will no more impugn the character ef any mau who has the audacity to be honester than yourself , We subscribe ourselves , Mr . Hobson ' s Election Committee , Joshua Barnard , Chairman . Hunslet , Oct . 12 th , 1842 .

      Leeds.—Death Of The Registrar Of The Wes...

      LEEDS . —Death of the Registrar of the West Riding . —The death of Fenton Scott , Esq ., of Wood Hall , near Wetherby . leaves a vacancy in the re _^ istrarship of the West Riding . Already there are several candidates to the office spoken of as being in the field : among whom are the Hon . Arthur Lascelles and T . B . Hodgson , Esq ., of Skelton , near York . The perquisites arising from the register office , at Wakefield , amount it is said , to about £ 1800 or £ ' 2000 a year . The election will take place at Wakefield , and the qualification of voters

      13 £ 100 a year in freehold property . In the first instance , in 1817 , Mr . Scott contested with Mr . Hawksworth for the ofiice , and waB defeated ; the cost of that election to Mr . Scott was nearly £ 10 , 000 . Ou the death of Mr . Hawksworth , in 1825 , we believe , Mr . Scott was elected without opposition , as , in the meantime , he had M won golden opinions from all sorts of men , " by honourably paying , in full , the whole of Wb father ' s debts . We have not heard when the election takes place .

      Accident at Woodhouse Races . —On Monday kst r an inquest _ was taken at the Court House , before E . C .

The deceased was at Woodhouse races on Friday week , and during the hurdle race , a horse belonging to Mr . Bronghton , whust attempting to leap oneof the hurdles , caught bis foot and threw his rider . The animal gallopped off the course , and in doing so ran against the deceased , who was knocked down . He did not suffer much at the time , bnt afterwards became so bad as to render bis removal to the Infirmary necessary . On examination two or three ribs on the left side were found to have been broken . He had for some years laboured under an asthmatic complaint , and this , with the injuries he received , produced severe inflamation on the lungs , of which he died . Verdict , Accidental death . "

      Leeds.—Death Of The Registrar Of The Wes...

      Highway Robbery . —On Monday last , three men , all notorious characters , named William Hollin , Thomas Greaves , alias Griffin , and James Sohofield _, were brought up for final examination , and fully committed to York Castle for trial , on a charge of having robbed Mr . Richard Vickere , calf-jobber , of Addingham , near Otley , on the highway , of £ 32 10 s . Information of the robbery was given to the Leeds police , and Mr . Read having seen the above parties together on Woodhouse Moor about an hour previous tothe timeof the robbery , and it becoming known that the same night and subsequent days they were spending money very freely , they were sought after . Hollin was captured on Sunday morning , at a house of ill fame in York-street ; Greaves left town on Sunday _^ but waa taken b y policeman Stubbs , at Wakefield , on Tuesday ; Sohofield , we believe , was taken at Leeds . They had each procured new clothes , and on Saturday , were driving to different

The prisoner Greaves was distinctly identified by the prosecutor as the man who rifled his pockets ; a hat belonging one of the robbers was left on the road , and this was sworn to by two witnesses as having belonged to Sohofield ; and with regard to Hollin , he had a severe wound on one hand , and during the struggle , the prosecutor got a man ' s hand in his mouth , which he bit most severely . A surgeon proved that the wound on the prisoner ' s hand had most likely been inflicted by somebody ' s teeth . By these means a complete string of direct and circumstantial evidence was produced against all the prisoners , and there can be little doubt that a conviction , and severe punishment for their offence , will await tbem at the assizes . We regret to hear that they were not taken with any money in their

      possession . Shop Lifting— On Friday last , John Griffiths and Sarah Ann Griffiths , his wife , were charged at the Court House with having stolen a woollen handkerchief from the shop of Mr . Robinson , hosier , Briegate . The couple went together on Thursday to Mr . Robinson ' s shop , and under pretence of purchasing some trifling article , contrived to steal the handkerchief . The man was committed for trial , but the woman was discharged .

      A Soldier on the Spree . —On Monday last , a private in the 32 nd foot , named John Thornton , was charged before the magistrates at the Court House With having been found drunk at one o ' olock on Sunday morning , and , whilst in that state , with having assaulted the police , and every one else in his reach . The man said he scarcely ever got drunk , but when he did so , be did not know what he did ; he had a pass from the barracks on Saturday night , and got so much that he did not know what he did . After a caution , he was delivered over to the military authorities .

      BRADFORD . —Fatal Accident . —On Tuesday evening , whilst some children were playing on the top of the pit hill , situated at Bunker ' s Hill , a little boy , aged seven years , fell backwards in the pit , and was killed by the fall . The name of the ohild is William , son of John Butterfield , of Spinkwell-terrace in this town . House Robbery . —On Monday night , the dwelling house of Mr . Benjamin Bradford , who carries on the business of butcher , in Bradford , but resides at

      Bradford _s-row , Bradford Moor was broken into and money and property to the value of nearly £ 40 was stolen and taken away . Mr . Bradford married a daughter of Mr . Bailey ' s of the White Bear Inn , Bradford Moor ; and Monday being the annual feast both Mr . Bradford and his wife were engaged in assisting at the public-house , where there is no doubt their absence from home was noticed by some villains on the look out for plunder , for on going home at one o ' clock on Tuesday morning the robbery was discovered ,

      Rather Plain . —The village of Silsden has long been famed for its manufactory of nails , and in such business the village is regularly visited by commercial gentlemen . A few days ago , a gentleman from Manchester was making inquiry in the village for William Inman , a nail maker , who had removed from his previous dwelling , and meeting with a blind man , well known as blind Tom , the fiddler , inquired into the whereabouts of Inman . Tom called a boy to him , who gave the stranger tbe following directions : — " You muu go direct for Joan O'Wills—reet by Tom O' Bill ' s—reet oor Street Brig—reet past Old Woodman ' s—reet in at Cat Hoil End—reet past Harry _O'Jossey ' s—and then he lives haven anient Nan O'Simm ' s . "

      WAKEFIELD . —Robbery . —A young man on leaving the Odd Fellows' Lodge , on Saturday night , was attacked by three men , when near Warrengate Head , and robbed of the contents of his pockets . Mare Stolen . —On Sunday night , a dark brown mare , the property of Mr . Wm . Halstead , of Grange Moor , near Wakefield , was stolen from afield in the neighbourhood of that place . Foreign Cattle at Wakefield . —The arrivals of foreign cattle here are on the increase , and much of the prejudice against the beef of these animals is naturally enough fast fading away . Some very excellent foreign beef has been sold readily by our butchers during the last fortnight . There was a large arrival at Hull last week , and also in London .

      Failure in the Corn Trade . —A neighbouring paper announces the unexpected failure of a gentleman of the highest respectability in the malt and corn trade , in this town . The liabilities are about £ 7 , 009 . The excise claim an extent in aid for £ 3 , 000 . The party has done considerable business in Lancashire , aud has suffered heavy losses . . The allusion is understood to he a gentleman named Martin . HUDDERSFIELD . —Fruits of Police Prudence . —The New Constabulary Bill being

      about to come into operation , Without the present police and deputy being included , a determination on their part ( on retiring from office , which : might perhaps have been done long ago ) to retire in as conspicuous a manner as possible , was made manifest on Tuesday last , by bringing charges against no less than eight beer shop keepers , for condnct of some kind . Perhaps no more culpable than houses of a more extensive license , were they subjected to the same rigid _ioterference . One of the eight lost his license ; the others were fined in sums varying from one to five pounds .

      Accident . —On Monday , as Thompson ' s coach was returning from Leeds , and just entering the town , about seven o ' clock , one of the leaders fell into a drainage , ( which was being cut , and left unguarded , ) followed by one of the wheelers , and remained in this state for fifteen minutes . Several persons were bruised , but fortunately none were dangerously injured . Heckmondwike . —The members of the Heckmondwike Greenside Cricket Club say they are open to play the Britannia Club again for the sum of from one pound to three on the 5 th of November .

      United States And Canada.—By The Great W...

      United States and Canada . —By the Great Western , Lieutenant Kosken , R . N ., which vessel arrived at Kingroad , Bristol , on Wednesday night , at _half-Dast eleven o ' clook , we have received New York papers to the 29 sh ult ., being fourteen days later than previous advices . The Great Western brought thirty-seven passengers , amongst whom was Lord Morpeth , who returns to his own country in good health and spirits . The news from the United States is of a very inanimate character . The newspapers are chiefly occupied in discussing the prospects of the contending parties for the next Presidential election . Mr . Clay is to be the

      Whig candidate , aud Mr . Tyler will have the support of the Democratic party . The Americans appear perfectly satisfied with the Ashburton treaty , and congratulate themselves on tbe prospect now of improvement in their monetary and mercantile affairs , though at present there is but little sign of change , the markets being in much the same state as by the advices of the Columbia . There is , however , very important news from Canada ; Sir Charles Bagshot has made an almost entire change in the members of the executive government . Mr . Lafontaine has been appointed Attorney-General for the East , and Mr . Baldwin for the West districts . Other changes have been made .

      The Quarterly account of the revenue has just been issued , and the aspect is not very cheering . Far otherwise indeed . The total income for the year ending October 10 , 1842 , is £ 45 , 269 , 927 , showing an increase of £ 355 , 981 upon the parallel year in 1841 . So far so good ; but in the comparison of tbe quarters in t the two years ending in October , a decrease in the present year of £ 67 , 473 , appears to exist . There is an increase on the last quarter , ending July 5 , 1842 , of £ 447 , 730 , but of this £ 313 . 844 consists of the property tax .

      Conviction Of Thirty Seven Prisoners.—Ex...

      CONVICTION OF THIRTY SEVEN PRISONERS . —EXTRAORDINARY MODE OF FINDING VERDICTS . ( by EXPRESS ) Stafford , Thursday Night . Twenty six of the twenty seven persons indicted for the burning of the Rev . Dr . Vale ' s house , have been found guilty tbis day . Hamlet _Jaokson was the prisoner that escaped . The mode in which the Jury found their verdicts is truly novel to our English courts of justice , aud was certainly a speedy mode for enabling the Jurors of the county of Stafford to come to a speedy decision .

      After the Chief Justice introduced the preliminary part of his charge , he handed up to the Jury a list of the prisoners , and told them to look at each prisoner as he commented upon the evidence that affected bim . At _ the close of bis comments upon that particular prisoner , they were to consult upon his guilt or innocence , and as tbey decided , to mark

      Conviction Of Thirty Seven Prisoners.—Ex...

      his name . Thus he wonld go over the list , and at the close they are to hand in a list marked according to their _deoisiona . Charles Wright was the first prisoner ordered to stand up . The Chief Justice went over tho evidence on his case , commenting upon it . The Jury then turned round , and in less than a minute agreed to their verdict . The course was adopted with John Harriss , and all the other prisoners . The Jury with the same facility determining their verdicts . The clerk of the Arraigns then inquired if they had agreed to their verdict . The foreman replied—yes ; and with the exception of Hamlet Jaokson , they found all the prisoners guilty . Mr . Price intimated his intention to apply for an arrest of judgment on behalf of Joseph Whiston , on the ground that he bad not participated in the mode in whioh the mob effected the work of demolition . The Chief Justice said that he was not in a state to make that application .

      It must be remembered that Whiston received a most excellent character from witnesses wbo knew him seventeen years , during which period he sustained a spotless character for honesty , sobriety , quietness , industry , and religion . His father , if report is accurate , died in a madhouse , and he himself was always deemed not over sane in his intellects . Indf 3 d his appearance in the dock strongly impressed every one with the idea , that although his demeanour was very becoming , there was in his countenance a vacant idiotic stare in his countenauce that indicated a somewhat - disordered mind .

      After the verdict , and without sentence being passed , the prisoners were reconveyed to the gaol under a strong escort of dragoons . During the whole day the Rev . Dr . Vale and his wife sat in court in the front of their victims . Such conduct excited universal disgust , as evincing very bad taste , and very little of Christian charity . It was imagined by some , that he would have recommended the unfortunate men to mercy . But , no ! No appeal on behalf of the wretched prisoners escaped his lips . The Saint , Liord Viscount Sandon , and his family

      occupied a conspicious seat in front of the gallery . His Lordship ' s conduct was insulting , and indeed unchristian in the extreme . He continued the whole day , while the fate of the prisoners was being decided , laughing and talking with the women that accompanied him . The Rev . J . Caldicott also indulged his Christian curiosity in beholding those to whom it was his duty to minister peace , doomed to misery . At the close of this trial the Judges separated , and Barons Rolfe and Parke occupied distinct courts , and proceeded with other trials .

      Before the Chief Justice . —John Roden , James Ibbs , John Lovett , and William Shaw , were indicted and found guilty of stealing from Mr . Hill , a pawnbroker , in Stoko-upon-Trent , a quantity of wearing apparel , on the 16 th of August . Before Mr . Baron Rolfe . —James Rathbone , Philip Deine , John Owen , William Spilsby , and Edward Moss , were indicted and found guilty of a riot , & c . Before Mr . Baron Parke . — Samuel Gibson was indicted and found guilty of attacking the kouse of Mrs . Paddock , in Stoke-upon-Trent , and stealing therefrom ten half-crowns .

      All those prisoners were also removed , and the courts theu adjourned to half-past eight o ' clock _to morrow morning , when the trials will be resumed .

      Leeds Corn Market, Tuesday, Oct. 11th.—T...

      Leeds Corn Market , Tuesday , Oct . 11 th . —The supply of Wheat and Beans to this day ' s market are smaller than last week , Oats and Barley larger . Thedemand has been very limited for Wheat , and all descriptions Is . to 2 » . per qr . lower ; to force sales , still lower prices must be taken . Barley has beea heavy sale , and Is . per qr . lower . Oats and Beans dull sale , and rather lower . THE AVERAGE PRICES OF WHEAT FOR THE WEEK ENDING OCT . 4 , 1842 . Wheat . Barley . Oats . Rye .

      Saturday last was rather brisker than it has been for some time , and perhaps more fine cloth was sold , occasioned , it is said , by the improved accounts from America . The demand for tweeds , fancy _oloakings , and other heavy goods , also continues , though the season for them is nearly over ; indeed , on Tuesday there was not near so muoh doing , Surely some demand will spring up for other articles , and thus cause employment to bo given to tho operative ? , for , without this , we almost tremble for the approach of a winter which is looked forward to with considerable apprehension . During the week , a good many home buyers have been in the market , but their _inquiries have only extended to meet their immediate wants . There is not , so far as we can hear , any improvement in the woollen market .

      Huddersfield Cloth Market , Oct . 11 . —Little was done this day except in low goods . Fancy articles are iu little request ; upon the whole it was not an improvement upon the last . Wools , & o . remain heavy . State of Trade . —The demand for goods continues extremely limited , and prices of some descriptions , particularly 27-inch printing cloth , are now quite as low as before the commencement of the recent disturbances ; whilst some other descriptions ptill command an advance of not more than from 2 h to 5 per cent over the rates then current . In the yarn market the cessation of the demand for Russia has caused a decline in the prices of mule yarn , which had previously been tolerably well supported ; and at this decline the German buyers have begun their operations ; but they do not willingly give the prices now demanded , and the market is very flat . _—Manchestcr Guardian of Wednesday .

      Bradford Market , Thursday , Oct . 13 th . — Wool—The transactions in this branch of onr trade are still of a limited character , the Spinners buying only for immediate consumption , and what little is done is at prices that the Staplers say they cannot replace , and unless the growers will give way , we may shortly expect a very limited supply . Yarn—The demand is tolerably steady , but we regret to hear of many of the most extensive houses working short time , or daylight only ; this has tho effect of preventing any accumulation , and causing prices to be steady . Piece—We have a full attendance of merchants , and the demand for Merinos and Low Orleans Cloth continues to be fully as good as for some weeks past , and prices without alteration . Fancy goods are hardly so much inquired after ,

      but so ruinously low have they been sold , that a . great many manufacturers have b ( en compelled to turn from them and re-commence plain goods . Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , August 10 . —A change of wind during the last two or three days has brought up a few vessels from Ireland with Wheat , Oats , and Oatmeal , giving up a fair supply of these articles ; otherwise the week ' s imports are ligbt . There is no change in the duties . We have continued to have buyers of foreign Wheat from the interior , and , holders being less anxious to press , prices of that grain have , upon a moderate amount of business , been sustained . Irish new , which was

      rather dearer in the beginning of the week , has , with accession of supply , _again receded in value ; the best samples of red have been bought at Gs . b'd . to 6 s . 8 d ., fair runs at 6 s 3 d to 6 s 4 d per 701 bs . New Oats are fully Id per bushel , and new Meal Is 6 d per load cheaper ; the former may be quoted at 2 s 4 d to 2 s 7 d per 451 bs ; the latter at 21 s to 22 s per 2401 ba . Foreign Flour has been rather more in request , and has latterly sold at an advance of 6 d per barrel : United States at 26 s 6 d to 27 s 6 d , Canadian at 25 s 6 & to 26 s 6 d per 1961 bs . Irish new has _jjone off slowly at 37 s to 39 _i per 2801 bs . No alteration as regards Barley . Beans and Peas each Is per quarter lower , and in very limited demand .

      London Corn Exchange , Monday , Oct . 10 , — There was only a moderate supply of Wheat from Essex , Kent , aud Suffolk this morniug , but an increased quantity of Barley , Beans , and Peas from these counties , whilst the fresh arrivals of Oats were extremely limited , from distant ports of our own coast , Sootland and Ireland , and the importations of all foreign grain have been unimportant since tha day se ' nnight . The weather during the past week has been as favourable as possible for the farmers occupation . Notwithstanding the moderate supply of English Wheat , millers took it off very slowly at about the rates of last Monday , and there was only a retail demand for foreign , for which nearly as much money was obtained . Flour was without alteration in valuegood marks ex-ship meeting *

      , fair inquiry . Prime malting Barley realized last Monday ' s currency , but the middling and secondary descriptions were about Is . per qr . cheaper . Seasonmade Malt was much the same in price , but slow fl » demand , and inferior sorts were offering cheaper ana difficult to be disposed of . There was asteady sale for good Beans , whether new or old , and such fully supported former rates , whilst soft samples were full «• per qr . lower . Peas of all sorts maintained tne currency of this day se ' nnight ; in some inst ances good boilers were rather dearer . Oats met a moderate sale , mostly however to the consumers , and , for want of better supplies , full prices were ob tained . Linseed and Rapeseed were taken in small quantities and at quite as much money . Tares dull , aud 6 d . per bushel lower .

      York Corn Market , October 8 th . —There is seemingly a throng Seed Wheat market , but there are few samples offering in the factors' row , tee trade is , nevertheless , dull , and the prices of la _« week with difficulty supported . Barley must _w quoted Is to 2 s per quarcer , and _OatB _£ d per stone lower ; Beans as before . Red Wheat , 453 t o 483 per quarter , 36 stone net . White ditto , 46 s to 52 s per quarter , 36 stone net , extra rather more . _Bane _/ i 25 s to 28 s per quarter . Oats , 8 d to 9 d per stone . Beans , 13 s to I 4 _s per load . Rochdale Flannel Market , Monday , Oct . 10 . — The flannel market still continues brisk , and there has been a good demand for pieces , but no im pro _^ ment in prices . The hands , at present , are fun ; employed , but at very low wages . In the woo ' market , there has been little or no change for boom weeks past .

      Skipion Cattle Market , Monday , Oct . 10 . --We had an excellent show of fat Cattle , but tne attendance of buyers was not large . The niarke * was heavy , and prices lower . Beef , 4 . J _1 . to 5 ja » Mutton and Lamb , 4 d . to 5 d . per lb .
