MERTHYR 7 YDVILi, SATURDAY,…
MERTHYR 7 YDVILi, SATURDAY, Nov. 16, 1833. TO THE PUBLIC—OUR FRIENDS AND READERS. On this day last year the GLAMORGAN, MON- MOUTH, AND BRECON GAZETTE, AND MERTHYR GUARDIAN first saw the light in the town of Merthyr. This therefore is our birth day, and we are called upon not only to rejoice our- selves but to invite our friends to participate in our gladness. But whilst we hail with all the exultation of aspiring hopes-with all the confi- dence of sanguine and undoubting youth—the genial sun which dawns upon the second year of our existence, let us not be unmindful of our ob- ligations to the sun which has just set so gloriously upon that in which we first struggled into life- let us not be challenged with benefits forgot and friends unremenibered. Brief as our career has been we find ourselves with a lengthy arrear of gratitude for favours past to settle with the priblic, which it is more-easy to acknowledge than to dis- charge—which in truth we possess no other means of liquidating, than by the promise which it will be our endeavour religiously to keep, of increased exertions to render the GAZETTE AND GUARDIAN more and more a source of gratification and profit to all who honour it with their support. That support has been, we avow it with feelings of pride and humility minted, constant and un- varying. The progress of our Journal in cir- culation has been gradual but not slow, rapid but not unsure, unexampled even though un- merited. There is no idle jactance in these assertions we are stating a plain matter of fact, in terms comprehensible to any capacity. Our career has been almost as that of the ava- lanche, which gathers as it rolls down the side ofst Gotliard, and whose speed is accelerated as it accumulates in bulk. The fable of Sisy- phus has in our case been reversed, for we have mounted in our Upward progress with an un- faltering pace-with lighter hearts and more elastic bound from each onward successive step. The history of the newspaper press in the whole empire-and e know sometliing of it-does not furnish one instance of a journal, which, during a sii»ilar space of time, has made an equal advance or can ^Oast of being so extensively diffused- We say this with feelings of pride not unpardonable or unnatural, although they are sobered down by the consciousness that the kindness of our friends has so greatly overtopped our humble deserts. We are moreover bound to proclaim that the GAZETTE and GUARDIAN is the paper of the three counties, not because we have so entitled it, but that the inhabitants of Glamor- gan, Monmouth, and Brecon, our readers and supporters, have so willed it. But if our ability to deserve have not been commensurate with the favour shown to us, we may still honestly plead that on Otr outset we raised no anticipations which have proved to be ill founded, nor made promises which we can fairly be challenged to have broken. The zeal, if not the talent, with which we have advocated the cause of the agricultural and mining interests of South Wales will not be doubted by those who have honoured as wtth their attention. We have been the poor man's friend, and have watched the divers phases of his social condition with an unremitting desire and encouragement of ameliorations of every kind; for we are no admirers of low prices and starvation wages, seeing they can end only in ruin to the master and lingering misery to the workman. Whilst we have carefully examined and conscientiously admitted the propriety otreform, where the necessity was urgent and the utility evi. dent, we have taken a determined stand against all wanton innovations on the institutions of the coun- try, sacred in our eyes because of the wisdom which founded them, and the laws by which they are established. Nothing is, we know, easier now a-days to any charlatan than to manufacture a Constitution; such blockheads even as Lord DURHAM conceive themselves sufficiently accom- plished for workmanship of so paltry importance- such idiots as GILLON and FA-ITHFULfancy they have a peculiar mission for it. Even Lord BROUGHAM, who knows, like the Scotch in general, somewhat of everything and not a great deal of any thing— who understands all other kind of business better than his owlo,-eved he finds it infinitely easier to make laws than to expound them, he loves rather to busy himselfin multiplying new Courts of Jus- tice than to administer justice himself in the old, and delights more to i nditeCharters which nobodywants orcares about,than todeal out equity to thestarving suitor in his own Chancery. It is the curse of our age that habitual law-breakers should assume, as such, to be the fittest of lawgivers aprocess of philosophy and liberalism by which in dtie course j of time the thief will deem himself qualified to enact that housebreaking shaH be tolerated, on the Robin Hood principle that those may take who have the power," and the murderer that killing and slaying is at the worst no more than Justifiable homicide. Against these and such as these unhallowed and disorganizing prin- ciples and Statesmen we have fought the fight- how successfully there are some among our contemporary opponents who best can tell, for we do not profess to be among those vague de- claimers who take their principles upon credit, and cannot therefore vindicate because they do Hot understand them. That our labours have been instructive we can only hope-that they have sometimes been profit- able, it is pleasing to know. As one instance we may, without presumption, mention the Eistedd- fod, now preparing to be held in the ensuing year, on so magnificent a scale, at Cardiff. Conjointly with that meritorious gentleman, Mr. JOHN PARRY of London, Bardd Alaw, we. had the honour to propose, to encourage, to accomplish the entertainment of the proposition for holding the National Festival in Glamorgan and we supported the claims of Cariliff as the most fitting point for holding the gay and splendid Meeting over those of Swansea, or other places, upon the same grounds on which, upon national questions, we have resisted innovations tending to no practical benefit, whilst they serve to foster a restless spirit of agitation and change. Cardiff is the Metropolitan Town of the County Gla- morgan, and why, as such, should it'be shorn of the honours and privileges fairly appertaining to its station? Such has been our course; that it has found favour with our readers we have the most sub- stantial reasons for being satisfied of, as well as the strongest inducements to perseverance fjr the future. The splendid and unparalleled success of the GAZETTE and GUARDIAN, since its esta- blishment, imposes upon us the grateful task of making our warmest acknowledgments to the Public at large who have adopted it; and it wonld be affectation in us to deny that we be- lieve it, with all its imperfections, what it is generally acknowledged to be, in all respects the leading Journal of the Counties Glamor- gan, Monmouth and Brecon. Our duty, no less than our inclination, will prompt us to make it more worthy every day of the constantly in- creasing patronage and circulation it is honoured with. When his Majesty's Whig Ministers first en- gaged upon the cares of state, it was no difficult matter for a man of plain sense to foresee with tolerable clearness what has followed. The whole tenor of the policy of these men has heen that of sacrificing to the "voice of the people, or at least of what they were pleased to call the people, (which is a very different matter) every thing that they found constructed and established when they came into place. In Ireland, from a very early date, the British Monarchy effected a conquest, and annexed the country. They did this, because they knew that the two countries united might flourish in prosperity and honour but that, disunited, Ireland would frequently be in alliance with foreign powers in hostility to England, and that thus, at the same time she would be a piercing thorn in our side, and would be constantly miserable to herself. That the union of the two countries might be effective, and that Ireland might share in the civil advantages 11 of the English Constitution, which are indissolu- bly connected with a certain independence of mind it was necessary to wean her natives from the mental thraldom of the Romish Church, under which, as at present administered in Ireland, no freedom of political constitution, no satisfactory conviction in conscience, no rational enquiry of mind, can have breathing. The best means for refuting the Roman superstition was to establish a Hierarchy of Protestantism in its full plenitude of excellence, with competent endow- ments to attract men of learning and capacity to wean the natives from the cloud under which they lay. There was in Ireland, in what country is there not, a class of men (they were there mostly of the old septs of Milesians) who thought it well, especially as only a vice-regal authority was on the spot, to agitate the untaught people into constant plots for their sole elevation. These men wrought principally, with the benevolent help of the Catholic priesthood, upon the super- stition of the people, upon the bondage under which spiritually they were to the Pope of Rome, and on their hatred of the Reformed Saxons. To put down these agitators, and to convey as far as possible Protestant instruction, had been, till the days of Whiggism, the system and labour of every English Ministry from the time of Cecil; while the Irish Protestant Clergy, rich in learn- ing, unwearied iii labotirs, undaunted in perils, and munificent in charity, most ably seconded their exertions. But agitation, like everything else except loyalty, has marched in mind" in modern times; and the Agitator of to-day is a lawyer, with all the cunning of his craft, and something else besides, and has dexterously evaded the penalties of his enormous guilt. This man ha& found how, without expiating his sins as he ought to do, to form a small proportion of his countrymen into organised bands. That man is fool, who cannot with one organised band coerce twenty times as great a number of peaceful citizens; and thus immense masses of men, of whom 19 in 20 detest the cause which they dare not refuse to aid, are working at his beck. One capital ruse of action was to incite the people against that British alliance, which was their safe- guard in war, and was necessary to their wealth in peace. This, among men ground down in body I y by the famishing process of absenteeism, and chained down in mind by the prescription of their priests, was no difficult task. Another artifice was, to excite the people against their Protestant Clergy. This, by the help of venal orators, and a still more venal press, but, more than all, by the pious charities of a few Romish priests, was so completely done, that at this day the opinion commonly held of these excellent and exemplary men is as remote fromlruth as light from dark- ness. Under this dark cloud of infatuation and error, under this blind judgment in total igno rance of truth, the voice of the People" (?) rung like thunder in the ears of the apostate Whig cabinet, demanding the sacrifice of the Irish Clergy- Who does not know that when the Clergy of any church are swept away, the children of that church must languish, the doc- trines of it lie in abeyance and concealment, from "i: the absolute want of active spiritual officers ? And yet to this voice of the people, this factious blustering of many voices raised by a few Mile- 11 sians for a few Milesians, have the Whig cabinet laid prostrate the Irish clergy at the feet of their enemies. On the vital stab thus inflicted on British in- terests no thinking mind can reflect but with a dismay, the very extremity of which must even rouse us into action. Not merely the arch- priest of (he Dublin Pandemonium, but the Protestants of all Ireland are, by their disgust and indignation, inclining, daily more and more, t, to a separation. Not only this, but the vigour thus transferred to the Popish party, and to the infidels and enemies of all Christianity, already brandishes the uplifted axe to fall upon the Protestant Established Church of England. Thus, a portion of the Empire desired upon the clearest grounds of national preservation, annexed witli wisdom, conquered with the blood of heroes, guarded, governed, civilized through succeeding centuries by the labours of patriots and the cares of sages, is sacrificed in one moment by the place hunting nepotism of a time serving popular Mi- nistry. Thus is sacrificed to the blind fury of popular clamour that beautiful and holy Esta- blished Church, which, from its foundation has been found unrivalled in the soundness of her doctrines and the purity of her practice; un- rivalled in the learning with which she has main- tained, in the efficacy with N-. liicii she has diffused, the tenets of Christian truth; tolerant in the zenith of her power; and the defender, to whose protection against the tyrant James, we owe it that we are born under a free political Constitu- tion. This is one flower that has blossomed from the stem of a Government that courts POPULARITY.

The directors of the Great Western Railway Company have resolved to make application in the approaching Ses- sion for authority to construct the Sections of the main Railway, extending between London and Heading, with a branch to Windsor; and between Bristol and Bath; thereby rendering the ultimate completion of the whole line more certain, upon a further application to Parliament in the ensuing year. This measure is sanctioned by the provisions of the Parliamentary contract, and is recommended by many essential advantages to the Proprietors. The standing orders of the two Houses of Parliament 's referable to this partial line of Railway, will be complied with by a deposit of the Plans and Books of Reference previously to the 30th November. The number of Shares required for this part of the un- dertaking will be 12,500, of which 2,500 will be reserved for the Proprietors of Land and consequently no further applications for shares can be entertained after 10,000 shall hare been subscribed, of which a very' considerable propor- tion have been already allotted. The estimates of cost and revenue for the Sections of the Line adverted to, are highly satisfactory; and this course of proceeding promises a beneficial and quicker return to ilie Proprietors for the capital invested. It is intended also hy the Directors, to insure to the Proprietors a prefer- able option of taking an equal number of new Shares, upon the future extension of the Subscription List, to complete the line between Reading and Bath, thereby reserving to the original Subscribers whatever advantage may accrue from any improved value in the Shares. The Parliamentary Notices will be given in the first week of November. Subscribers will not be answerable beyond the amoun of their respective Shares. Applications for the Shares remaining to be allotted, to eonipleta the limited Subscription List, should be immedi- ately addressed to the Secretary, in London or Bristol, from whom the Prospectuses may be obtained.

A'-XTRAORDINAR Y CASE. Last week a fine tall young fellow, who gave his name George Bellingham Graham, was brought into the Bow-street police office, London, by a Sergeant ot the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), for the purpose of being sworn in in the usual manner before the Magistrate as a private in the above regiment.3 Alr. Rawlinson-Pray are you any relation to Sir Bellingham Graham, Bart. ? Recruit—Yes, I am his eldest son. Mr. Rawlinson—And of course, then you are heir to the Bardnetcy ?-Recruit I am. Mr. Rawlinson—What age are you ? Recruit-I shall be twenty in a few months. Mr. Rawlinson—Have you ever been in the army before? Recrult-I have held a commission as Ensign which I have given up. Mr. Rawlinson—This is a most extraordinary proceeding. Are your friends aware of the steps you are taking ? Recruit-They are, and are agreeable. Colonel Hill, the deputy commander of the regiment into which I have now enlisted, was also apprised of it this morning. Mr. Rawlinson-You are described in the affidavit as a yeoman. What do you mean by that ? Recruit—I at one time held a farm under my father. Mr. Rawlinson—I think you are acting with a deal of indiscretion. Where is your father? Recruit—He is at present in York. Mr. Rawlinson (to the sergeant)—This is a strange affair. Is it usual for you to enlist a person in Mr. Graham's sphere of life as a private soldier ? Sergeant—It is certainly very unusual. Mr. Rawlinson—Well, the young man must cer- tainly use his own discretion. The required form having been gone through, the sergeant, accompanied by his recruit, who described ,"biruselfasa marriedflan). hen left the office.

SOMERVILLE. THE PATRIOTIC EX- PRIVATE. Our readers are,no dobut, aware that this man has run from Edinburgh to America, leaving his creditors in the lurch. He had lately opened a tap-room in Rose- RI reet, and on the strength of the funds subscribed by the reforming gulls throughout the country, he got tick to a fair amount. Like many other patriots, he has fled to the land of liberty, with as much cash in his pockets as he could scrape together. We have hitherto refrained from noticing this appropriate close of a farce got up by the oponentsof military flogging and the friends of refractory military privates. We had expected that the gentlemen of the press amongst us,who had elevated this man to the rank of a hero and a martyr, would have noticed the event, and tendered some explanation or lamentation on the occasion. We have waited in vain-the Whig and Radical press are ,I rnum." Why is this, men of the Mercury and scot,qntais j? Somerville mas one of your staunch con- tributors; you may regret the loss of such an ally; why then not express your sympathising feelings ? It is" too bad." And then, Messrs. Hume and Tait, why are you silent ? Your protege has done you much credit. He has proved himself a true patriot. But, seriously, Mr. Tait, we ask you, did you not know years ago that Somerville was a swindler? Yet you puffed the fellow, as if he had been an honester man that even Lord Althorp. What can be said of such conduct, Mr. Tait ? For ourselves, we are not at all astonished that Somerville has proved the rogue we a ways knew him to be; it is only matter of surprise 1 at !le dld not years ago reach the gallows at gallows in Botnay Bay.

We have several Communications before us from valued Correspondents, which we have not space to notice in this number. We have made, as will be perceived, some alterations in the distribution of our matter, which will facilitate the inser- tion of a greater portion of later [intelligence both of local and general interest. The change has been in con- templationfor some time past, but deferred so as to com- mence with the second volume. We take this occasion to acquaint our readers, that arrange- ments are being made for carrying on JOB PRINTING in all its branches, at the Office of the GAZETTE aud GUARDIAN.

The friends of the Agricultural interest will perceive, from extracts which we have made from other papers, that the attention of the body to which they belong, in various, indeed in nearly all parts of the country, is now drawn to the urgent necessity of concerting and commencing measures for their protection. The subject is one on which we have more than once emphatically appealed to our readers, and on which we do so now, under a strong impression, that with a Go. vernment which yields every thing to noise and nothing to principle, no means of safety are left j* but in protecting justice and property with an energy at least equal to that with which they are assailed. Of the state of depression under which that most important interest has long laboured and labours still, or of the virulent animosity with which it is about to be attacked, it is quite unnecessary to speak. The present is the time for the whole body of the Agricultural interest, and the millions of deserving, men who depend upon it, to exert the combined intelli- gence, influence, and activity inherent in them. We are quite convinced that the Agriculturists of the counties of Glamorgan, Monmouth, and Brecon will bring a large accession of moral and intellectual power to the general stock and we only suggest to them the necessity of doing so WITHOUT DELAY. We hear that a small junta of persons, who love to be singular, are laying their heads together '.0 make it appear that the inhabitants ofMerthyr wish to have Lord BROUGHAM'S Corporation Bill. After the very public meeting at which the subject was considered last week, and the decided feeling which was then unanimously evinced, we must say that this pertinacious attachment to singula- rity is, at the present time, in anything but "good taste." However, if the gentlemen who choose to be thus singular are willing to pay all the ex- penses which the measure must bring upon the borough, and to relinquish all the local power of distressing the poor which the offices of magistracy a will confer, there is perhaps no objection to their being called Alderman or Lord Mayor, or any thing else, to the top of their bent.

The Loudon GUARDIAN, received last night, bas an article 011 the Public Meeting held in this town, to consider af Ljrd BROUGHAM'S Job- bing and Corporation Bill. It gives great and not undeserved praise to the masterly speeches OF ANTHONY HILL, and WM. MEYRICK, Esqrs. We have not room, however, for quotations. We have to complain however that the London GUARDIAN, contrary to the custom of respectable Journalists, has taken the whole of our Report, and made use of our information without the slightest acknowledgment of the source from which it was taken. Surely this is not fair play.

From France we learn that the Chambers are convoked for the 23rd December, and that the National Guard of Colmar is dissolved. Louis Philippe is in great alarm at reports of the ap- pearance of the Duchess of Berry, in different quarters. A general strike which has taken place among the workmen in France and Germany has at- tracted much attention. It is thought the circum- stance will be productive of some very serious measures. The spirit seems to have influenced most classes of artisans. The intelligence received from Spain leaves the issue of the conflict still in doubt. A bulletin published 28th October, by the Capt.-Gen, of Arragon, states thatCamp Marshal Lorenzo on the 26th defeated and utterly dispersed a body of the rebels about 1000 strong, under the command of D. G. Miranda and Don Narcisses Garcia at Logrono. The rebels lost upwards of 100 men, among them two Lieutenant-Colonels and several officers; the loss of the Queen's troops was very trifling. According to a letter from Saragossa, dated 30th Oct., the whole of Arragon was tran- quil—nor does it appear that any serious disturb- ances have taken place in any part of Spain other than Biscaye, Alava, and the districts of old Cas- tile, infested by the bands of the Cura Merino. Another letter from the same place says that an attempt was made in that city to get up a con- spiracy it was however soon defeated by the troops. Intelligence received from Pau states, that the revolt of the Royalists at Madrid broke out with increased violence on the 28th, at twelve o'clock on that day. Several of the peasantry distinctly heard the firing. The fact that General Harispe has been sent by the French Government with orders to concentrate his forces on the frontiers, gives ground for believing that the contest was of seriot's asiect. The private correspondent of the LONDON GUARDIAN, a Paper which takes the lead in pri- ority of authentic intelligence, writes 131LBOA, Oct. 30. Y esteruay, alter our dis- eiiibarkation," we marched upon this town, in which we have been extremely well received by the Provincial Deputation and by all the au- thorities. The Deputation is pursuing a firm and vigorous line of conduct: in so small a province 11,000 men have been completely armed and equipped; and in the province of Alava 15,000 men have been organised, without reckoning a vast number of other troops. According to the latest accounts from Old Castile the Cura Merino has under his orders nearly 6,000 men a great part of this force is cavalry. The provincial Junta has been estn- blished at Posa, in the name of our w ell beloved Charles V. The troops which marched from Madrid upon Old Castile, in concert with those which formed the army of observation on the frontiers of Portu- gal, are at Burgos, under the orders of General I Sarsfel(I their number amounts to 5,500 (5000 infantry and 500 cavalry). All the men who can do so without danger are deserting. The inhabitants of Navarre seem animated with the courage of despair. Every drop of the unfor- tunate Santos Ladron's blood will cost, wj fear, that of thousands of victimr. October 31st—Troops are about to march upon Tolosa, which will be attacked to-morrow, and if taken, as will probably be the case, the movement will be continued on St. Sebastian. News has just been received from Arragon, that throughout the whole of the province, even at Saragossa, Charles V. has been proclaimed. The Captain General has set out to France, in consequence of a letter written by his servant, which has been received here. Merino is in such force in the country which he occupies that he is now unattackable, I will send you his proclamation. There has been a rising at Madrid. The Royalist Volunteers, with two regiments of the Guard have quitted the capital and inarched upon Estremadura with the view of joining the King. Official intelligence of the evacuation of Burgos by Saarsfield has just reached the province. Burgos was immediately afterwards occupied by Merino's forces. The province and city of Valladolid have pro- claimed Charles V. Segovia and Avila have followed the example. A report is in circulation that the insurrection in Madrid is far from being quelled, and that it now rages with increased violence. I have no time to say more. The journal De la Guienne states that the commandant of the citidel of J acca bad proclaimed Don Carlos. There are numberless reports of other insurrections on a small scale, which how- ever are promptly suppressed. Intelligence from Lisbon to 24th ult. states that the troops of Miguel still occupy Santarem, and the foreign mercenaries of Don Pedro are not in sufficient force to attack them in their strong hold. It is said that a considerable part of Pedro's English and French officers have resigned, and many of his troops refused to fight, in conse- quence of his ex-imperial Majesty endeavouring to force them to serve for Portuguese pay, instead of English pay, at which they were engaged. The Indicateur de Bordeaux" of Nov. 9, has news fromPortugal, dated Oct. 27. It announ- ces the entry of a column of t)dn Pedro's troops into Abrantes, and that they had seized the per- sons of the family of Don Carlos, and of Don Miguel's sisters, who bad all been conducted to Lisbon. According to the same intelligence Don Carlos was at Castello Branco, with some ex-garden du-corps and a few royalists. Don Miguel, whose position was desperate, seemed desirous of retiring upon Olivenza. The contents of the Dutch mails afford hopes of a resumption of negociations, with a satisfactory issue to them. But our Dutch friends have often before been equally sanguine. The little King Otho has sent au ambassador to invest his royal father with the insignia of the Greek Order of the Redeemer. The intelligence from Mexico is very gloomy civil war was still raging, aggravated by Cholera'. New York Papers to the 22d of October contain accounts from Tampico to the 22d of September, from which it appears that Mexico was tranquil at that period. The cholera had prevailed, and earned destruction of human life to an alarming extent, but at the date of these advices its malig- nity had greatly abated. By further accounts it is stated that General Santa Anna was at Dalores, in the State of Quesatara, with an in. reased force. He was actively employed in making preparations for commencing offensive operations against General Arista. From these advices we also learn that the General Congress was to assemble in Mexico without further delay. The «' Prince Edward's Island Royal Gazette" of the 1st of October, speaking of the crops, says, The harvest operations have been much retarded by the unsettled state of the weather. A good deal of grain has been cut down, but very little, comparatively speaking, has been housed or other- wise secured. It appears from the Newfoundland papers of the 12th of October that crime in that island has reached a fearful pitch. From the unusual num-I bers confined, the magistrates were obliged to re- quest the officer commanding the garrison to allow them a sergeant's guard to watch continually over the goal, so as to prevent any rescue or escape." A KIND MASTER. A traditional anecdote, preserved in the family and communicated by the present Duke of Newcastle, will afford a pleasing instance of the easy and kind condescen- sion with which Mr. Pelham behaved to his do- mestics. He had sent for his coachman to give him some orders. Whilst he was speaking the man suddenly drew out his watch, and, glancing a look at it, abruptly broke off the conversation by exclaiming, Sir, it is my time, and I must KO and drive MY children in the carriages."

COAL IN FRANCE.—A French paper gives the following summary of the produce of coal in France —The production of coal, which in 1789 amounted to 2,500,000 hectolitres, rpse in S12 to 8,200,000, and in 1830 to 22 millions. It 18 supposed that in 1833itwilinot be less than 24 tnillioiis. According to the official lists of 1831 the number of mines which have been granted amounts to 321 these are divided amongst 39 departments. The actual duty is 33 cen- times per hectolitre (war duty included) on foreign coal brought by land, aud I franc 10centimes on for- eign coal coming by sea. An exception has been made in favour of the three departments of la Meuse, la Moselle, and the Ardennes, which are without com- munication by water. For these departments the duty has been reduced to 11 centimes. On the whole mass of coal consumed in France, the quantity fur- nished by foreign countries is estimaiea at a quarter, or upwards of six millions of hectolitres. Of this quantity, England contributes 36,000 tons, or some- thing more than 500,000 hectolitres; the rest comes from Belgium, and principally from the coal mines of Mons, and the neighbourhood. The English coal is consumed at Calais, Havre, Nantes, Bordeaux, and our seaports. Belgium however sends by way of Dunkirk a certain quantity of coal to our western coasts, from Brest to Bordeaux.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. Nov. 12.-0ur corn market was thinly attended this uiorning, and having very little business passing in wheat for consumption, and no ipecul lative buyert, prices have-receded to those of this day se'unight. Barley, malt, beans, and peas remain much the salll" in value. The finest oats may be quoted as on Tuell- day last, but some middling quality have been rather cheaper terms, oatmeal and flour jrather loOlLiAg down in price.
