The accounts have &heftily twin published. The proofs against the estate amount to 9,2531. Mr. Lowrengo, representing the a...ig100 , . siiil that he undetstutel Mr. Williams was &shoos nf hieing the bank ruptcy annulled, sad therefore he dal not propose to puss tb tt day.

They bed better both paw, ae separate baleneeeshests have Leen ...id then they ems take ssch further proceed:Jigs as trey may be elle v.sed. Mr. Lawrance—That is certainly the course which I should r.comme ad. Tee Commissioner—Your advice has been so good to the bankrupts thr ingboat this cot, and they must fee' so mach indebted to you for it. that I think they Oa better follow it in this instance. They had hirer pies their elimination and have& certificate of the first class, as it would be; be. Cause the re may be other claims set up, and the certificate would Ire • complete her to them. And the fact of its being of the first close would r thirsty relieve them team any ine• putation that the bankruptcy might be supposed to carry with it. Mr. Lawease.—The payment of 20s. in the Pound, with interest, on the whole of the debts, will surely satisfy all the claimants. Probably the best course will be tar them both to p.ss to-day ; and Me. Williams CMS take his own course afterwards. The Commissioner—Very well. Then let them pas.. Mr. Lawrance—l am bound to *tote that huh these gen tlemen have conducted themselves throughout with the greate.t possible propriety, and to the entire satisfaction of the assignee.. They would have passed long ego, but your Honour tnought it was better they should not do so until the question* in dispute with the railway company were de cided. There will now be 2.10. in the pound for all the cre ditors, and a considerable surplus over. The Commissioner—Then they will bath price. I cannot al ow this ease to clam, so far as the present sitting is con cerned, without observing on the conduct of these bank• ropes, though it may seem rather premature to do so in this stage of the ease. But I must my, having watched this case from its commencement till it has at length arrived in this stage, where it ought, in pistile to the bankrupts, to have been long ago, that their conduct has been very re markable indeed, and that it strikes me thst they have been more unjustly assailed than any trader who has come to this court in the course of my long experience. They have not been at all fairly treated ; they have been kept in this state of embarrassment and annoyance by • proceeding against them, which proceeding has turned out to be quite unfounded on the part of those who undiluted it. Their property was taken tram them, in the first instance, most violently, without say regard to the interests of justice and truth. The matter has been discussed in every possible way, and the result is, that a sum of money has bits awarded them . by a gentleman to whose decision on such a matter everybody must he most willing to bow— Sir William Cubitt—a sum sufficient not only to enable them to strike off the proof of thus. persons who to assailed them in the first in.tauce, hut also to enable them to pay everybody 200. in the pound, and to leave a large surplus. It seems to me that they come out of this inquiry with the greatest possible credit; and I have the utmost pleasure in giving to them the full benefit which the law intended for perons like themselves who are brought here entirely by misfortune. Mr. Pennell, the official assign e, in answer to a question from the court. said there was no doubt of the assets being sufficient to pay the debts in f.ti. Nit more than 10,0001. ha I beta proved, and he understood that 19,0001. would be received under the award. Some sumo ell ended by Mr. Mirehant in conducting the arbitration were allowed out of the estate, his Honour re marking that the bAnkrapts themselves were the only par ties directly interest, I in these paymcnts,which would go in diainution of their surplus.

Del Mil l Higguse, aged 20, and Tlioutas Murphy, aged 27, an exceedingly powerful looking man, were indicted for Mending in the dwelling-house of George Window, on the 27th of October, in the parish of Llanover Upper, two pis tols and a watch, his property, and then and there, by menaces and threats, putting the Hey. John Brans, clerk, in bodily fear, and stealing from his person 201. Mr. Iluddlestone conducted the prosecution ; Mr. Cooke defended Murphy; lUggins pleaded guilty. In the course of the above day, Higgins and a man named Arnold, who has been since convicted and transported for another burglary, called at the prosecutor's bore bogging, and made inquiries of a servant lad, about 14 years of age, warned Llewellyn, respecting the house and the fami l y. Between sis and seven in the evening, these men, with four others, came to the house, some of them having their faces blackened, and others having crapo over their facer. Higgins and the four other men went into the bore, and ordered bun and the servant-maid to sit to the wall with their backs to them, and on no account to look round. A lady, who was staying in the house, seeing strange men in the house, ran out Vie back way and proceeded to the rectory, about a couple of hundred yards off, and gave the alarm. The rector, a gentleman about 50, without con sidering what Seri of company he was likely to ,fall into, ron at once fo tea rescue, and when he got iallde tin Outer wicket-gate, suddenly found himself caught up by both shoulders by a man who, he now said, was strong enough to throw him over the wall, and who, saying to him, you arc the very man we want, forced him gently for ward without hurting, or trying to hurt blend° the front door, where he was received by a man with erspe over his face and a pistol in hit hand, and who made him sit down with his taco to the wall, and ordered him to make no noise. There he found by his aide two or three more of his neighbours, who, it seems, had been caught and treated in the very same way on coming to the rescue. In the meantime, some of the other roLoers ransacked the house, and when that was done he was taken out into the dairy, and three men with pistols in their hands, taking him for the master of the house, required him to tell where the money was. He said ho was a stranger to the house, and was in that room before. One of them proceeded to search his pockets, but another said. Blow out his brains, and do not waste time." He was a little frightened at this, and at seeing three pistols. Ills pockets were searched, and 201. taken from him. One of them then pulled his watch out of his pocket, and Its said, "Do nat take that—it will not do you much rod ; it is an old piece." On which the searcher looking at it said. " Tes, au old family piece, you may keep it." boon afterwards a signal was given outside, and they all ran away from the haute, two towards Hereford, and fcur towards Pontypool. On the sth of November Murphy and Ilicrins ware met on the road about seven miles from Hereford by a constable, who arrested Murphy, and found in a bundle on his hack two pistols, one of which had been stolen from Mr. Window. On Murphy was found only one shilling in money. and he stated that he did Lot know the bundle contained the pistols, or be should not have carried it. Magus% had four sovereigns. They both at once confessed what they had done. Murphy re peatedly admitted that he was at the robbery ; he said that they all agreed not to do violence to any Jae, owl that hr said if they should hart any he would leave them, and that he merely met the parties outside, and acted as footman In bawling them to the front door; that he wee not aware they robbed the parson, and did not get a penny of the money, and that he had been without victuals for three days before, and that he was a 144 he was taken up now, before lie was led into worse °lrene , e. Mr. Cooke addressed the jury for him, in order to get him off the more serious charge of robbery with menaces in the house, inunrooh as he did not go into the house, and all the eircutiastonets showed that he was not guilty of that charge. The jury took this view of the case, and he oo sentenced to only 10 years' transportation, Higgins bein w oo nd to 16 yeses. WESTERN CIRCUIT.—TAUNTON, MARcn 30. BIWA' /IL JIATICV CAOIIMPI AM.

Mr. Day and Mr. Bere were cum.sel fur the prosecutim ; and Mr. C. Saunders defended the prisoner. It appeared that the prisoner was committed on this charge in April last. 0.1.3 of the chief witnesses against her was her own illegitimate child, but it was so young and in suers a state GI ignotanco at the lut 'mixes for this runty that Sir. Baron nett ordered the prisoner to be remanded, mad directed that the child should be 'ken t? the Tauntan union and instructed in the nature and o'Aigs tion of an oath, in o:der that it might be examined against the prisoner. The facts of the case were these : The prisoner was a single woman, and resided with her father at Bishop's Lydiard. About six years ago she bad an illegitimate child. la February, it appealing that she was again preg nant her father Wind her out of his house, end she was obliged to tike refuge in the Taunton union. On the 27th of February she said she should leave the union. The master remonstrated with her, hut she said she bad to meet a ei.t,r, and she lett the house. On the third of March she went to the house of a Mrs. Edwards, who kept • lodging-house at Bridgwater. She had her little girl with her. Slip asked Mrs. Edwards to let her have a bed for herself and child, and she paid 4d. for that accoramadation. Mrs. Edwards, seeing that she was very large in the family way, asked her when her husband was. The prisoner re plied that he had died six months since. She went to bed early, and in the couree of the night she called up Mrs. Ed wards, and a midwife was sent fur, and she was safely de livered of a female child. She had in her handle a complete set of baby clothes, very clean and comfortable. A band was put round the body of the infant. She remained at. Mrs. Edwards' until the 12th of March, when she lett, say in; she was going to Bishop's Lydiard to the father of ti.e ' child to have the child christened. Sae was very poor and destitute; she had no money ; she was poverty stricken and houseless; but Mrs. Eiwards obtained s o me little relief for her from the relieving officer. Or. the 12th of March she left the house of Mrs. Edwards, taking with her the infant and her tittle daughter. On the evening a thit day she was at the house of one Burge at Stogumber. Burge asked her what had become of her baby. She replied that it mil stillborn. She slept that night at Burge'e, and the next day she returned to her father's house. On the liath of March some men who were working near a pimtition saw a bundle in a kind of pit; they examined it, and found it to ha the dead badly of a female child. It had been mutth eaten by Yuma. There was a band ri mid the body. The men gave information to the sexton of the parish, and • coroner's inquest was held; but no suspicion being entertained, the coroner's jury returned a verilict of " Found dead," nod the body was buried. Circumstances, however, having transpired to create some suspicion, the bodp was exhumed, and the prisoner was apprehended. She stated that, as she was walking on the road she met some gipsin, and they entreated her to give them the baby, and at length she gave it them ; but she should not have Bono s, had she not been in great distress; that no one knew what she had suffered. The body, when exhumed, was so much decomposed that the cause of death could not be ascertained. The band found round the body was eworn to by the midwife as the one she had pat round the pri soner's infant, but Mrs. Edwards said the shirt was not one which the prisoner had when at her house. When in the " lock-up " the prisoner said, " There's a baby found ia the wood, but I did not put it there." The matron said, " Recollect, I don't ask you a question." The prisoner said she should know if it was hers if she saw it ; that she was coming on the road from Bridgwater. and met some gipsies, and they asked her two or three times to give the baby to them, and she gave it to them, but it was through distress and poverty. Sarah Jane Amory was then put in the box, upon which the prisoner cried bitterly. The child was seven years old. Mr. Stuuden submitted that so young a child could not be examined- She could not bo indicted far perjury. Mr. Day contended that it was not the age but the in telligence of the child that must be considered. Mr. Justice Eels then had the child taken into his pri vate room that he might examine her as to her religious knowledge. Oa his return into court, The learned Judge said he bail examined the child, and the result of the examination left him dissatisfied as to her memory and religious knowledge. Ile had asked her when she was flint taught to say her prayers, and after some hesitation she said last Friday. He then asked her who taught her to say her prayers, and she did not know. Sbe did not know anything about a Saviour, and when asked who was the Sou of God, she said the Holy Ghost. He did not, therefore, think it right that she should be exa mined._ Mr. Saunders then addressed the jury for the prisoner. Mr. Justice Erie having summed up, The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty. NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—LivEnrooL, APRIL 1. Num Palm—Bums lia.Razos Nuns. WHITTAKER V. LAW.

Ser jaunt Wilkins was endeavouring to obtain an answer to a question which the learned Berm considered unnecesiary Serjeant Wilkins—Really, I think this the most extraor dinary interruption I ever knew. Judge—Please to go on. Serjeant Wilkins—l am only doing my duty, and I feel bound to mention it. Judge—Mr. Serjeant Wilkins, I will not permit you to address me in the way you have done. Serjeant Wilkins—Your lordship interrupted me when— Judge—l Ara the Judge. Serjeant Wilkins—l know you are, but the judge is not absolute for all that. Judge—Certainly not ; but you are wasting time. Serjeant Wilkins.—There is no man in the court who has wasted less time than I have. Judge.—Well, I think it is a waste of time. The Serjeant here repeated the question several tines to the witness, without obtaining en answer, when, address ing Mr. Baron Martin, he said, "If your lordship won't help me, I can't have an answer." Judge.—l certainly shall not help you. Serjeant have often seen your lordship do it before. Judge.—lf I have done so I did very wrong. Serjeant Wilkins.—Then I had better give up my brief. I am told that every item in this bill is false. Mr. Tindal Atkhanin, for the plaintiff.—Why do you not prove it ? Serjeant Wilkins.—Don't let me be schooled by the op posing counsel and the judge also. The learned seljeant tten contended that nothing was due to the plaintiff. The hearing of the case was then resumed, and after hearing the evidence on both sides the jury returned a verdict for the defendant. . NORTH WALES CIRCUIT.—Rums, MARcn 30. The assizes fur the viunty of Denbigh commenced in this town on Monday last, but owing to the severe indis position of Mr. Justice Manic, which on the previous day had precluded his attendance at church, Mr. Welsby (bar rister-at-law) acted as his lordship's deputy. BURGLARY. Thomas Dames and James Davies were convicted of breaking into the house of Mrs Langford, in February last, and stealing therefrom several bottles of wine, azd a large quantity of silver plate. The evidence against Beth prisoners was conclusive. James Davies was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment with hard labour, and the other pri soner, who had already undergone transportation on a pre vious conviction, was further sentenced to be transported for fifteen years. THE POLICE COUR7'S. BOW-BTRBET. Ann Iliggotes was charged with wilful perjury. A young woman, named Margaret Smith, had Bent the prisoner to pledge a wedding ring at Mr. Clark's, pawn broker, Long-acre. The prisoner obtained 3s. upon it, sad &slivered up the duplicate to Mrs. Smith, at the same thee retaining Gt. of the money for herself. After this she re turned to the pawnbroker's, and, representing that she had lest the duplicate, obtained a second one upon the usual sworn affidavit. By this means she got the ring out of pawn %gain, and dispoeed of it elsewhere at a higher price. Mr. Jardine Nall this was a very common practice, and the parties were little confident of the serious character of the offence. The prisoner was remanded for further examination. THAMES. Mr. Robe. G. Sharpe, master of the Affithan, late from Calcutta, surrendered to his recognisance' on the charge of baring assaulted and wounded a man of colour, named Loo Dec, who has since died, and who had officiated as serang over the Asiatic portion of the crew during the voyage of the Affghon from India. The C4IIP excited great interest, owing to rumour, of great cruelty basin,/ been indicted on the natives on hoard, and the fact that the chief and s, coed officers of the vessel already stand committed for the man ' slaughter of a men named Romani' Ali. The witnesses for the prosecution were examined through the interpretation of the lice. Mr. Campbell, a dissenting &mynas, who had passed many years in India. Ternshi re,t he but rah tindai of the Aaistica, stated that about eight days after the Affiehan left St. Helena, the captain, without any cause, beat the itec..ased Strang with a thick rope having a knot at the end of it. Witness asked why he beat their chief, to which the only reply wan a dozen lashes inflicted on witness with the hauling and clew lines. The captain beat the serang until ho fed from a blow in the Lead with the knotted end of the rope as he desecuded the lead• r from the forecastle. Aft , r , ne e-sault the si rang attended a little to bis duties for two days. From that out he remained in the forecastle doing noiiiirg until the time of his death, which took place a few days since in th- river. 3lr. John Cramley, scar,/eon, 71, High-street, White chapel, in sr to Mr. Fell. ,m, who appeared for t..e dehisce, said he was examined at the hum at held on the body of the wrong, and concurred in the *pinion that ilia , ease of the lune, was the proximate cause of death. Wit ness examined the scalp of the head, sod found two nodes In the scull ; one on the left side three inches long and two wide, and another somewhat leas on the right. They were filled with blood, bat there were no corresponding marks on the inside of the scull. There were marks of violence on the arm and knee. These marks might have been in . flictid with a stick ; a rope with • knot in it would de cidedly produce thins. The bl.ws on the head must have be?n heavy. as deceased had a thick mass of hair. Mr. Pelham—The ship was 44 days coming from St. Helena. Ceuld the injuries have Ikea inflicted so long since ? Witness—l should think not, as the nodes contained effused blood; whereat in 44 days matter would have been (could. It might have been a fortnight. TO Ir. relnarn—Witness could not say as to 30 days.

Mr. Comby, the surgeon, was exa;nined by Mr. Fearuly, but adhered to his origins: opinion, that the injuries on the scull of the deceased acre the result of blows. The marks on Loth tides of tho head could not be the result of a f.d. The charge of assaulting the hurrah tindal was also roe into, and Mr. Ingbant expressed his determination to egminit the prisoner on both charges. Mr. Fearnly hoped not as it would involve double tenshle cud double expense. Mr. lexham considered both cases were closely connected, and CAA must go to Nevrgate for trial of the misdemeanor.

SI:GAL—The offices have been closed the ireater part of the week, on account of the Easter receu, and we have, consequently, but little business to report, either in the raw material or in refiners' produce; the demand, however, is rather dull, and prices have a downward tendency. In Rust there is nothing whatever doing. COTTON.—Ltxmoot., A►RIL I.—The dulness and pressure upon our market which we had to report upon last week has not only given way and entirely disappeared, but has been succeeded by a quick demand, large sales, and a complete turn round in the tendency of prices. This sudden ch mge has been brought about by the last advice+ from the United States reporting by tele graph a falling off in the excess of receipts from 536,167 bales at one period to 450,000 bales as advised by the last accounts. And as many parties regard this falling off as only the first step in that direction, our market has as sumed a tone of much consequence and activity, speculators as usual taking their full shore of what is going forward. All the middling class of American may be regarded as id. per lb. higher ; the low and very ordinary setts of that de scription, being large in stock, are not raised quite so much, say Id. Surds and most other kixds sustained about the same advance. Egyptians and Sea Islands are without change in any respect, and not more in demand than heretofore. The committee of brokers place fair Uplands at Gil., Mobile at 61d.. and Orleans at Sid. 26,470 Americans, 1,690 Surat, 420 Egyptian, 80 Pernam arc reported to have been taken on speculation ; 12,310 American, 1,210 Surat, 100 Madras, no Egyptian, 70 Smyrna, 200 Bahia, 450 Pernam fur ex port.

Livettrooh, April I t Since the date of our last monthly circular we have had considerable excitement in the Wad market. Public sales Wok One here on the 4th ulh, when 3,344 bales East India, Egyptian, Turkey and other low Woes were offered, the greater part of which were sold at entrust rates; since then there has been a large business doing by private contract, the late arrivals bare been chiefly sold as landed and a further advance in prices has been obtained on most descriptions, particularly fur clean loag-stapled Wools suitable for combing and card ing purposes which may now be quoted id. to Id. pet lb. higher. Mohair is in good demand, fair average quality selling currently at 21. 4d. per lb. In Alpaca the transactions are limited, late imports hiving been chiefly sold for arrival, stocks in hand very light. In bright haired English and Irish combing Wools the improvement in prices is still more marked, • large business has been done, and an advance of Id. to 2d. per lb. has been paid on such descriptions; the demand still continues very active, and fears begin to be entertained that the consumption is overtaking the supply of these Wools. Stocks in the growers and dealers hands are lighter now than they have been known for many sears, and hold ers (from the difficulty they experience m replacing their stocks are unwilling to make sales unless at a further ad vance. For Scotch Wools there is also an active demand, stocks of all descriptions very light, and the late advance fully supported.—From W. Grow Co.'s Circular. CORN.—Ctinotsroun, April I.—The supply was small of Wheat to-day, and the condition rather improved; all needy buyers had to give fully the rates of last week, and red was more sought after ; red, 445. to 471. ; white, 48s. to 625.; extra, 63g. Barley rather declined in value, in some instances ls. per. Beans and other spring corn with out alteration. Ltscoxx, April I.—The weather being now mere favour able for out-door labour, our farmers only brought a small show of grain to our market to-day. Wheat was a dull sale at last week's prices. The same may be said of other articles. Wheat, red, 44,. to 485.; white, 495. to 621. Barley, malting, 30s. to 365. Oats, 184. to 21s. LIVERPOOL, APRIL I.—There was a slender attendance of millers and dealers at this morning's market, and the general business was as limited as we have experienced for a length of time. Wheat was considered to be Id. per bushel, flour 64. per barrel and sack, and Indian corn 61. per quarter ual.r the prices obtained on Tuesday. Oat meal supported late rates. There was no observable change in the value'of other articles of the trade; all of them moved slowly. Arrivals into Liverpool from the 2)th March to the 31st March inclusive :—Barley, 46 qrs.; Malt, 873 ; Oats, 647 ; Oatmeal, 2,818 sacks; Flour, 16 sacks, 8646 barrels. Exports to Ireland:—Wheat, 774 qrs.; Indian Corn, 2,701; Flour, 263 sacks and 982 barrels. WAKEFIELD, April I.—The supply of all grain dill con tinues moderate. To-day, from the scarcity of fine fresh Wheats, more money is generally demanded, but the trade is only slow, and, to proceed freely in sales, late rates have to be submitted to. Fine heavy Barley sells on former terms, but the thin and and stained qualities continue very unsaleable. Oats and Shelling steady. Beans in limited demand, and recede in value. Other articles do not vary. Imports during the week: Wheat, 7,380 qrs.; Barley, 2,041; Oat', 381; Beans, 1,182; Peas, 19; Rapeseed, 628 ; Shelling, 260 loads ; Malt, 73. INDIAN MARKETS. BOMBAY, )(ARCA 1. We have still to report only a limited business in the import market. The dealers show no inclination to pur chase ; the demand from the interior is as slack as it has Lein for some weeks past. COTTON MANUFACTURES.—OUT market for grey shirt ings has been in :he same condition during the past fort night as in the early part of the month, 40 in. light makes being most in demand ; 45 in., however, sells freely at a slight reduction in price, with the exception of the finer descriptions, which are in no inquiry. In 50 in. nothing reported doing. Grey Madapollams (31be. and under) are still in fair demand at about former rates: the finer qutli• ties are not inquired for, and prices have receded two to three annas per puce. There has been some business done in Grey Jaeconets, hut. the heavy stocks already is second hands have forced down the prices greatly. Grey domestic of 10 inches heavy makes are in good demand. Longeloths continue to be dull of sale ; fine T cloths are inquired for, but prices have not adva: ced. White shirting' of common and also fine qua. lities are in less request than they were lately, the recent imports having been so heavy as to lead b iyers to look fur a fall in price. White Madapollams of common qualities are in demand. In white mulls, lappets, and other G;asgow goods little is doing. In Turkey red cloths theie is no change, with the exception of mulls, which, owing to their scarcity, have advanced in value. EXTORTS. COTTON.—This market is very steady at our quotations, which, it will be seen, are 2 to 3 rs. higher than they were a fortnight ago. Supplies of the new crop are coming for ward from the districts, and we expect to see the market well stocked in the course of the entreat month. OM:M.—There is nothing to add to our full report of the State of this market in our last, the prices remaining as before, but without anything doing. FUEIGIITe.—These have risen a little since our last, and ' arc quoted to-day at 41 per ton to all parte of Great Britain. To China Its. n per candy. idortex MARKET AND EXCHANGE.—The most ettaltelt• ablecicunistance in our money market, since the 12th inst., is the extraordinary rise in the value Oriental Bank shares Irani fifty to eighty-five per cent, premium. No local cause for this great improvement appearing, and the change havingcommenced immediately afterthe arrival of the overland mail of 21:h January, two days alter notice of payment was due to the holders of stock in the Five per Cent. Transfer Louse, we ere justified in suppr , ing that parties in Europa interested in this stock aro not disposed to have their funds iu the hands of the East Indian Com pany tit a reduced interest, whilst shares in the Oriental ►Sank Gttpora'rm are to be had instead. The Oriental BILIC Slaves were quoted in our Imt at dt) per cent. premium; on the 15th uttimo they advanced to 51, on the 16th to 52, on the 12th to 54, and on the 21st to 55, on the 24th to 58, on the 25th to 75, on the 26th to 89, and te-day we quote at the reduced hut still high rate of 72 per cent. premium. Commercial Bank shares have risen slowly but steadily from 12 to 15 per cent. premium. Colaba Press Company's New shares receded on the 25th ultimo from Its. 7000 to Its. 6600. Agra Batik shares are ready at our previous quotation of 30 per cent. premium, having been in inquiry only from the 18th to the 22ud ildmu at 32 prr cent. In other ceiyartncries the shares have remained a ithout change. the live per Cent. Tr:Angler Loan which was quoted in our last at 105, advanced on the I.lth ultimo a I,nlf per rent., and on the 18th another half per cent., at which rate this stock is now maintained. 'The Five per Cent. Loans of 18243-26 and 1822.30, quoted in oar hat at 112 to 1121, advanced on the 18th to 1121 to 113, and fell again on the 26th to 112. There is some talk of the Court of Direc tors offering to pay off the numbers of this loan. The Five per Ceut. Loan of 1841 42, quoted in our last as declining from 1101 to MI, rose on the 18th to 1111; on the 21. t it fell to 111, and again on the 26th, to 1101, at which rate we now quote. The Four p.r Cent. Loan of 1832 33, already quoted at 103, advanced on the 21st ult. to 106, and is steady at that rate. The Four per Cent. Loan of 1836.36 and 1642.43, previously quoted at 991 to 9n, has been steady at 991 since the 21st ult. Eachati7e on England is not so favourable for remitters as it was I,r some , tecessive mails past. To-day the rate for hest local bills at six months' sight is 2a. 15-161 to 25. Id. per rupre, and China and other credit bills have been sold fur the mail at 2.. O'd. to 2.. op. CALCCITA, Fri. 19. In our export market, a good amount of 'business has taken place. Our import market remains unchanged, being still de prosea, renewal of 44 uy :natty uemann. There is certainly a languid inquiry from that quarter, but the limits which guide the agents arc generally below cur rent rates. We are at • loss to account for this inaction, as the stocks up Macre are known to be considerably reduced, and the grain crops there, regarding which fears were ut one time entertained, are now greatly im proved, and promise a fair harvest. Scotch goods are nearly unsaleable. Mule Twist can be readily placed at current rater, which remain unchanged einca our last report. A fair business has been done in Turkey red yarn, at our quo tations. Metals remain doll, although holders are firm at present value. The sales of copper and of iron are small ; Spelter lead and tin plates are without report of sale. Money continues t toy and abundant. The share market remains very firm, with an advancing tendency. Cora psny's paper, excepting the kilns likely to be adjusted, haa stilt further insyroved in value. Exchange hoe declined. At going to press the quotations for first class paper were 2-0 i to 2-1 for credits, and 2-1 to documents. China bills, Its. 223 to 215 per 100 dol lars, but little doing. The rates of freights have increased a little. We now quote 31. 101. saltpetre, 31. 15s. sugar, and 4/. rice to Landon. CHINA MARKETS. CANTON. Moxtw MArtm.—Gold, 21 dub'. 50c. rer Ts.

Notwithstanding the im proved accounts received trom England a few days after the date of our last report, the market has been compara tively quiet and the transactions limited, chiefl)• owic.g to the unusually small supplies in the market and the great firmness evinerd by the tea men to bold fur higher rates. Congests : about 30 chops have been settled at an advance ofl a teal on common and 1 teal on nll good blackish leaf kinds, The arrivals have been very small during the month, and the unsold stnek is consequently reduced to 24,000 pack• ages, or 40 full clines, whilst at same period last year there were upwards of 150 chops in the market. Green Teas.— In the almen.e of supplice, the traneactinns have necessarily been very trifling, and do not amount to more than 2,000 packag• a, at slightly advanced rates. As the unsold stock (10,000 packages) consists almost entirely of com mon hymen skins and no further arrivals of suitable teas are expected, the market may be considered closed for the sea son. Bilk—During the month there has been but little de mand, and the operations have been limited to about 900 bales, principally Taatlera, for which class prices have been rather easier. Tayaasma have maintained their former position. EXCHANGIL—BiIIs on London, 6 months. hs. 31d. to hs. 4d.
