Manchester. — A large manufacturing and mar- 

 ket-town, thirty-six miles (E. by N.) from Liver- 

 pool (but only thirty-one by the railroad). 54 

 (S.E.by S.) from Leicester, and 186 (N. W.by N.) 

 from London, and contains nearly 190,000 inha- 

 bitants. Its staple trade is the cotton manufac- 

 ture, which, in all its various branches, is carried 

 on to an extent almost incredible, and formes a vast 

 source of wealth to its inhabitants. Some of the 

 public buildings are extremely elegant, and literary 

 and other institutions, theatres, libraries, assem- 

 bly and concert rooms, and in fact every luxury 

 and convenience usually met with in enlightened 

 and wealthy communities, abound.
