Decrease 37,575

2,826,048,

1,155,006

This diminution of the staple manufacture, is to be traced to two causes; the prohibitory decrees of Bonaparte, and the orders in council of the British government: by the former, of which our manufactures are shut out from the continent of Europe, and by the latter our commercial relations with the Unite States of America are suspended. Seeing the operation of these measures, and having their effects every day before our eyes in the number of artizans that are loitering about the streets for want of employment, our surprise is not that the quantity of woollens have decreased so much, but that they have decreased so little; and this surprise will appear very natural when the public are informed, that of 1160 shearmen in the town and neighbourhood of Leeds, 400 are out of employ. But a falling off of only 925,957 yards will be, in some measure, accounted for when it is considered that the shipments to America, for the fall trade, in 1810, were as brisk as usual; and that for about six months in that year, the depot system prevailed with its former pernicious activity; so that the decrease in the broad cloths which appears on this official return, though embracing a period of a whole year, has, in point of fact, arisen within the last six months, as will ap pear from the following quarterly state

On Monday the 15th of April, the members of the Nottingham Sunday School Union held their second annual meeting, at the New Methodist School room, East street, in that

town.

The place of meeting was much crowded, and the reports of the different schools in connection with the Union, were on the whole very encouraging. In general, there had been observed in the last six month much improvement in reading, &c. and espe• cially in those schools where a part of the Lancasterian system had been adopted. In several instances much good had arisen from religious instruction; some highly interesting communications were made by different persons present, and a very pleasing letter was read from the London Sunday School Union. It appeared by the reports, that about 6000 children were instructed by forty societies of methodists and other dissenters in the Union, by about 700 voluntary teachers.
