      TWO Medicineyetoffered to Uie world ever bo rapidly i . 1 atuinedsuch distinguished celebrity : it is questionable if there be now any part ofthe civilised globe where its extraordinary healing virtues have not been exhibited _, _fhis signal success is not attributable to any system of a _* vertis : n » , but solely to the strong recommendations of parties cured by their use . The Proprietors of Parr's lafe Pill ' s have now in their possession upwards of fifteen _hancred letters , several of thera from _CleiTgrmen _ottiie Church of England , many from distinguished _isseutuij ? "Ministers , from gentlemen connected with the Army and _ITavy , aUo from Members of Parliament , Merchants , and last , _though notleast , from members of tlie Medical 11 * 0-¦ fcssion . and a skilful Analytical Chemist ; all speaking in _. _thchightsttei-msofthe valueofthisiiicstimable inedicine . _Tiisii a , _™« of evidence initslaro ur _beyondaUparaUel .

      _SMITHFIELD MARKET . There was a good general market , but there was little demand . The best Scotch oxen fetching only 3 s . lOd . per stone , and prime llerefoi-ds and Dcvons , 3 s . 8 d . per stone , Scots are generally quoted at Is ., but this is not upon a general scale . The sheep market was not , as to supply , so extensive as it was on this day se ' nnight , but the flocks were in good condition , and a ready Stile was effected in the latter order of stock . Lambs were dull in the market , for the last Friday ' ssale operated on so large ti scale , as to defeat thc request for this frail commodity for the next market day ( "Monday . ) The veal market was by no means well supported , aud the best bargains were effected at 4 s . 4 d . per stone of 81 b . The pork market was

      extremely dull , and there was no active business done in the latter order of stock . Our continental neighbours have supplied our market for this day ' s market in Smithfield B 54 foreign beasts in a medium condition , Hollanders , Prussians , and Spanish fifteen score of sheep from Holland ; forty score of three-and-a-half months' lambs , in fair condition , and a few calves . There was an active sale for tariff stock throughout the day ; tlie lambs went off readily . We will afford the amplitude of ouv native supply of bovil stock . The Eastern Counties _attonUnl us 1 ,-tuO Scots and mixed cattle ; the Western _Coimtu-s _, 50 a ditto the metropolitan districts , 400 ditto ; Scotland , 120 ditto ; and the rest made up irom various districts .

      Provincial Markets. Liverpool Voua Mmbm....

      PROVINCIAL MARKETS . _Liverpool voua mmbm . _T-ivpnpHnir 12 , 155 qrs . o . malt received costwise , and 5 , 503 sacks of flout' rrom Ireland , the supp lies of British grain and meal are this week of very light amount . From Foreign ports , however , the nrrivals arc extensive , the import note showing upwards of 02 , 700 barrels of flour , 9 , 70 i > qrs . of Indian corn , and 9010 hrls . of Indian corn meal from the United States . We have also the first arrivals this season from Canada , _consisting of 12 , 894 barrels of flour , and 1 . G 00 qrs . of wheat . Under the anticipation of the passing of the Corn Importation Act , nnd the consequent early release from bond of large quantities of wheat and flour , the local millers and dealers have bought as sparingly during the week as their wants would permit ; prices of free wheat and flour have slightly given way , whilst those of bonded have Imp-ovcd a little , but without In either case establishing a quotable change . ' The business in oats , barley , beans and pease , has been ofa very "limited nature ! We have had some heavy rain , and almost daily showers , since last Tuesday , and which have greatly improved the prospect of the _spring-sown corn .

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

      for the few parcels which have come forward at an improvement of Cd to ls per sack . Stale chambered lots , of which the great bulk now in warehouse consists , were difficult to quit on former terms . There was but little inquiry for either oats or oatmeal , and the previous curcency was barely obtainable . Intelligence of the Royal assent having been given to the Com Law Importation JJfll , the discussion of which lias for so long a time kept the trade in a state of suspense , was received here this morning ; and , although this event has for the past few '' ays been calculated on , no report of its influence on the market can at present be made . The transactions in all articles are still only to a very limited extent . The stocks of fresh sack flour , suitable for bakers use , are reduced to a narrow compass , and sueh descriptions move off into consumers hands , as they arrive , at full prices .

      Warrington Corn Market . —At this market there was a moderate attendance , and a fair quantity of wheat offering , of which the farmers were willing sellers , nt an advance of 3 d per bushel on last week ' s priees . The millers , however , stipulated for an early delivery . Sales were made at , for red , 7 s to 7 s Gd ; white , 7 s Cd to 7 s 9 d per 70 lbs . ; one fine sample of the latter fetched 8 s . No oats were shown . Flour , best seconds , 37 s ; common ditto , 35 . Meal , 33 sto 34 sper 2401 bs . Of potatoes there was a short supply , with , a slow sale at ahout last week's prices : Pinkeyes , 13 s to 13 s Gd ; cups , lis to 12 s ; farmers and Scotch , IDs per 955 lbs . New potatoes , Id to 2 d per lb . Huil Corn Market . —At to-days market we had a

      large show of wheat . from the farmers , who were asking high prices ; . our , millers were by no means anxious buyers , and ' we quote prices a shade hig her than last week . Somo inquiry for Foreign , to be delivered after payment ofthe duty , without , however , leading to , business . Of spring Comvery little shown . There has heen considerable inquiry during the week for bonded , and some business has been done at full prices . . In rapeseed andlinseed nothing doing . Rape calces are without alteration . Linseed cakes keep up , and we do not look for this rain having much influence ou them , the stock of seed is so small and our crushers are almost bare of stocks . Of bones the arrivals continnc rather large , and lower prices are taken . Guano the same as last noted .

      Newcastle Corn Market . "— Our farmers brought a small supply of wheat to market to-day , and we had also a scanty show of samples from the coast , for the whole of which the demand proved good , at similar prices to last Saturday . In barley there was literally nothing doing _. Malt sold slowly without any alteration in value .. For oats we had a fair inquiry , and late rates were fully supported . Peas and beans were in rather more request . Rye remained without change , " _,

      State Op Trade. Leeds.—There Has Again B...

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

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

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

      Halifax . —There has been but a moderate extent of business to-day , both in pieces and yarn . Sales of long wool , too , are not extensive , and prices less firm than they were . Short wools continue rather scarce , and in fair request . Rochdale Flannel "Market . —The flannel market still remains inactive , and the demand for goods has been yery limited . Some few of the manufacturers were buying to complete some orders , or the business done wouid have been hut little . The wool market has undergone but little change sinee last week . Barnsley . —The trade of this town is still in a depressed state . The number of hands out of employ , or partially occupied , causes considerable distress in this neighbourhood . _Leices-1-eu . —There is no improvement to announce in the demand for manufactured goods this week . Worsted yarns remain the same . There has been but little doing in wools , buyers holding off until tho fair , whieh will take place on Wednesday .

      aottiiVgham . —More business has been doing in finished laces than for some time pr . st , hut at very far from remunerative prices . Plain nets are slowly ( although stocks in the white are very low , and not larger thah usual in the rough state ) , owing to want of confidence in prices , which have ' been , nevertheless , for some weeks below prime cost . Quillings are almost without quotation . French lace goods are importing in largo quantities , and affect the English silk lace trade even more than they limit the demand for our cotton goods ; in both their dress and finish is peculiar , and will repay for attention here . Cops and yarns are in _geod demand for other markets , and maintain late rates of price .

      , Nrrireu At Singapore, From Sea, On The...

      , gapore , from sea , on the 22 ndinst ., and as some particulars of the cause of her unexpected visit cannot fail to prove interesting , we are onabled to present our readers with some account of her cruise , lt appears that the Admiral received orders from the Admiralty to increase the force at present engaged in the war with the natives of New Zealaud . Her Majesty's ship Castor and the war-steamer Driver were ordered to prepare with all dispatch for the service at New Zealand , notwithstanding that the boilers of the latter were represented to be ( and as the result proved to bo correct ) in an unfit statu for so distant and important a service . However , as a survey was held on the boilers of both steamers , Vixen and Driver , at Hong Kong , and the latter reported as the most efficient vessel of the two ,

      there was no alternative but to despatch the Driver immediately . The Driver accordingly sailed from Hong Kong on the morning of the 27 th September , intendimr to take the eastern route to New Zealand . The Castor sailed from Hong Kong at the sama time , for the route through Anjer Strait , and to the southward of Australia . The driver arrived at the island of Batan , the largest of the Bashee group , on the 30 th of _Septembur , and immediately set about getting a supply of firewood to enable her to pursue her voyage , Batan , the capita ) of the island of that name , is inhabited by Spaniards and Malays , in all about 5 , 000 . The Bxecutivc at Manilla sends a military and a political resident , and soldiera every three years , to relieve the garrison stationed there ; the force consists of an officer and thirty men . The island produces vegetables , maize , tobacco , aud

      breadfruit , the whole of which , with goats , bullocks and poultry of all sorts , are remarkably cheap and abundant ; good fresh water is also to be obtained . The natives are , for the most part , Christians , being under the spiritual control of a padre iu each district . There is a Convent situate at Batan . The whole island contains about 11 , 01 ) 0 inhabitants . They are happy , peaceful , and indolent , but sadly addicted to liquor , which they extract from the sugar-cane . The governor , who is represented as a most energetic and kind person , bestirred himself and bis people in such a manner , that in three days the Driver had upwards of 100 tons of wood on board , and accordingly sailed from Batan on the 3 rd instant ,

      intending to make the island of Guam her second place of call . On the Gth , however , having got 250 miles from Batan , everything indicated the approach of bad weather , and towards evening the _breeee , which had been fresh all day , increased in violence , and at midnight it blew a pei _' - feet hurricane Every storm sail which was attem L to be set to steady the ship was blown to ribbands , and for twelve hours she was left to the mercy of the « 1 „ d aud waves ; no canvass being able to withstand the violence of the wind . _Towards the _^ U ' * ° V _* e mMnh * of tt _- 8 th , the gale abated , and settled into a _moderate br eze from the south-east The typhoon commenced from the north _, east , and gradually drew round to the south-east . The

      sea is represented to have run terrificall y hj gh . . _jl behaving remarkably well , but several of her _bulwa" _^ and rails , hammock nettings , cook-houses , _< tc _^' washed away , also the gig and life buoy from _the'V _* as well as nearly drowning all the live stock on bol _^' On the afternoon of the 8 th , the Driver commen cM steaming , when , shortly after , a leak was found to S J extent in the midship boiler , which was accordingl y 8 w on * , aucu o ' clock , p . m ., however , a great rush 0 f „ water was observed from tne apace between the st ° _* board and midship boilers . At this juncture , the _chW engineer , with great risk and difficulty , _hazily _SMcee _^ in opening the safety-valve , and drawing the fires ; a thereby prevented a greater injury than would _others ,, have occurred . The war steamer was non- in ra ther an awakard condition , being without either steam or aa Upon examining the injury the boilers had sustained h

      was found that four days would he required f or tht ) , temporary repair ; and , not having sufficient fuel to reach Guam in her then crippled state , and it was deemed ad . _visafcle to bear her up , which was done under the _squarj sails , these being the only ones which tyhphoon left un . scathed . On the 14 th she again commenced steamin g , but finding a leak in the bottom of the minship boiler wliich , working at full power , greatly increased , g * i ( steamed from the north end of Luzon to Singapore , win the expansive gear which the admirable _slide-valve 3 of Messrs . Seaward and Co ., the makers of her engines , en . abled her to do with such advantage that she average ' upwards of seven knots an hour , consuming little morj than half the quantity of fuel which she would have dom working at full power . The barometer at the hei ght ol the typhoon fell to 201 inches , and we _huar that , even working expansively as she did , so great was the leak in

      her midship boiler , that the temperature of the water in her'bilge was 185 degrees ; indeed , cold water had fre . quently to be let into the . ship to prevent tho officers and crew from being parboiled . We wonder that the Bashes Islands are not more visisted by ships , especially as stock and provisions at Hongkong are so expensive . The Go . vernor and inhabitants are represented to be anxious to trade ; and vessels frequenting that place may bo assured of a hospitable reception from all . net excepting the worthy friars inhabiting the convent . As a specimen of the price of provisions , on the authority of our intelli . pent informants , we may observe that bullocks are to lis iiad from 7 to 10 dollars each ; goats , 1 rupee to 2 rupees , which are said to be very fine ; and pigs at 1 rupee each ; vegetables , fruit , Sec , almost for carrying away , for such is their abundance , that scarcely anything is demanded for a sufficient supply for a ship ' s use . —Strait ' J Times ( Singapore ) .

      The Late Mr . B . R . _Hatdon . —On Tuesday j meeting of gentlemen took place at tbe chambers of Mr . Sergeant Talfourd , in Serjeant' inn , to devise some means of providing for the widow and daughter of the late Mr . Haydon , the melancholy circumstances of whose decease are still fresh in the recollection of our readers . Among the gentlemen present were , Lord Morpeth , Sir J . C . Hobhouse , M . P ., Dr . Bowring , M . P ., Mr . W . Hamilton , Count D'Orsay , the Rev . Dr . Croly , Mr . Serjeant Talfourd , and Mr , Jerdari . Lord Morpeth was called upon to preside , and his Lordship , in common with every gentleman who took part in the proceedings , expressed his deep concern at the deplorable death of Mr . Haydon , and his sympathy with that unfortunate gentleman ' s widow and daughter , who , in consequence ofthe em « _barrassetl state of Mr . Haydon ' s affairs , are left in a state of utter destitution . Several resolutions were

      proposed and adopted , the first embodying an ex . pression of deep regret at Mr . Haydon ' s deatb , which bad been caused by distraction of mind consequent on his pecuniary embarrassments . The second and third resolutions were in the followini ; terms— "That without presuming to effer any j udgment as to the place which Mr . Haydon will ultimately fill in the annals of his art , or any opinion on the controversies in which he was sometimes engaged , this meeting feels that the efforts of his genius , and the circumstances of misfortune which obstructed them , justify an expression of pub . lie sympath _y with his widow and daughter . That such expreasion would be most fitly conveyed by securing a permanent provision to his widow and

      daughter , left wholly destitute by his death ; and that a public subscription be opened for that pur . pose . " Mr , Serjeant Talfourd read a letter he had received from Sir R . Peel , expressing his regret that the pressure of public business would prevent him from attending the meeting , and stating that tha Queen had been pleased to grant Mrs . Haydon a pension from the Civil List of 501 . a-year . The rhrht hon . baronet requested , that in the event of a subscription being determined upon , his name might be put down for 1001 as a contribution from hii private purse . It was stated that Lady Peel had assigned a pension of 25 Z . a-year to Mrs . Haydon out of a fund over which , from her position , she ha *

      control ; and that Sir Robert Peel , having found that a son of Mr . Haydon , who held a situation in the Customs , was of sufficient standing to receive promotion , immediately gave him a step in rank . The prompt generosity evinced by Sir R . Peel in promoting the welfare of tbis unfortunate family was warmly eulogised ; and thc following resolution was unanimously adopted : — " That the thanks of thi 3 meeting be respectfully tendered to the Right Hon . Sir R . Peel , for his prompt and considerate attentioa to the application made to him for assistance by ths deceased Mr ., Haydon , and for his munificient acts of kindness towards his family . " Lord Morpeth , Sir J . G . Hobhouse , Mr . Serjeant Talfourd . and Mr . W . Hamilton , were appointed trustees of the

      subscription . A committee was formed to carry the resolutions into effect , and a vote of thanks having beengiven to the noble chairman the proceeding * terminated . The subscriptions announced at the meeting ( including Sir R . Peel ' s contribution of 100 Z . ) amounted to upwards of 4001 . It was stated by several gentlemen , well acquainted with the position of Mr . Haydon ' s family , that the peculiar circumstances of tbe case rendered prompt exertion on tlieir behalf most essential ; and a confident hope was exprf sscd that the differences which had existed between Mr . Haydon and many of bis professional contemporaries would not prevent them from aiding to alleviate the distress of the widow and daughter ofa talented and able , though au eccentric and unfortunate artist .

      Coroxkh ' s Inquest . —On Wednesday , pursuant to adjournment , Mr . T . Wakley , M . P ., held an inquiry at the Rum Puncheon , Cross-street , Drury-lane ' , touching- the death of Martha Grogan , aged three years . The chief object ofthe adjournment was for the production of a Mr . Lowe , who is in bis 94 th year , and who adm _i nistered certain pills to deceased . After a long _investigation , the Coroner , having strongly reprehended the pursuit of Mr . Lowe , observed , that although a clear prima facie case had been established against liim , yet there was no liability attached to him , inasmuch as he had not administered the medicine for pecuniary gain , but , on the contrary , had purely a benevolent object in view . The Jury returned the subjoined verdict "We find thatthe deceased child died from natural causes , but at m _^ me t"n e we stronSIy reprobate the practice ot Mr Lowe , in administering medicines which were provedto be ot an injurious character ; and the more so , he being totally ignorant of medical practice "

      . Case of Lock Jaw . —On Tuesdav morning the following distressing case of lock jaw was admitted into Guy s Ilospital . A boy named James Lamb , aged 12 years , whoso parents reside at 25 . Redcross-street , southwark , was playing in the garden with his companions OH Thursday last , when he by some means ran a large nail or spike into his shoe , which penetrated his right toe . He took no notice at first of thc accident , but on Sunday he was seized with violent pains in the stomach , which was specdilv followed by a stiffness in tlie back . His parents _became alarmed and on Monday called in the services of Mr Odhug , surgeon , of High-street , who , on _examiniii " the lad , found that his teeth were firml y fixed , so as to prevent his taking any nourishment . He immediately pronounced the lad to be labouring wuler tetanus , or lock jaw . He was removed to the above hospital , and died at eight o clock the same evening ,

      Un 1 'liursda . yweek , as a man named Caple , residing near Pill , was mowing in a field at Abbot ' s Lei _^ h , belonging to Wm . Oliver Bigg , Esq he was suddenly stricken by a sun stroke . Medical assistance was promptly sent tot by Mr . Bigg , who was in thc held at the time , and all conceivable means of resuscitation immediately tried , but to no purpose for the poor man breathed his last in a few minutes after his infliction . Thunder STORM . _ On Friday last our citv was visited by one of the most terrific thunder storms e " perienced in thisneighhourhood for many years , which lasted tor nearly two hours , during whieh So eleerm flashes were constant and vivid , and the peals of S _" _^" lon r . but _«^ rain that followed was not as copious or insessant as the _lowering clouds Fr ?
