Some hour has also been Liken on this market for shipment to the former country. Oats were in moderate supply, and the rates of Monday last were well supported for both old and new qualities. Barley sold slowly, at former rates, and beans and peas underwent no change. Total Annexed are the latest reports from continental bourses, as received by Mr. Renter's express:— Amsterdam, Wednesday, closing prices :—Dutch Four per Cents., 924; ditto Two•aod-a-Half per Cents., 614.

The chair was occupied by the Mayor. The Tows CLLItk read the following report The apecial committee appointed by the council on the 9th inst., to inquire into charges preferred against Mr. E. Bradley, a member of the council, relative to the course, pursued by him at the recent election for Vaughan ward, as to which it is alleged that he unduly and improperly end his position of a councillor and member of one of the committees of the council, to influence a voter named Stop forth as to giving hie vote at such election, and to report thereon—unanimously report to the council. I. That Mr. Bradley, being a member of the water committee, and of the financial sub.-committee of that com mittee, bec.une cognisant of the names of persons in arrear for water rents in the several wards. 2. That a meeting of the financial sub-committee of the water committee was held on the 21st ult., and attended by Mr. Bradley, and it was proved that he, at that meeting, made entracte from the list of persons so in enter and re siding in Vauxhall ward. 3. That George Stopforth, a voter in that ward, was one of the persons included in the list of those in arrear for water-rents, and that Mr. Bradley did, when canvassing Stopforth for his vote at the recent municipal election, un duly and improperly use his knowledge of the fact, which be bad obtained as a membar of the water committee, and of the fiaancial sub.cummittee of that committee, for the pur pose of inducing Stoplortu to rite fur a particular candidate at that election. Your committee submit with their report a manuscript of the short-hand writer's notes of the evidence adduced, upon which the committee observe only, that witnesses having been called to disparage the character of Stupforth, other witni Mb of undoubted character and respectability were called in reply, all of whom, having knowu him for many years, "peat of him as a sober, hardworking, well conducted man, and as one upon whose honesty and truth fatness every reliance may be placed. J. B. Moons, Chairman. Town-hall, Liverpool, Nov. 29, 1133. In answer to a question, The Tows Claim said—Assuming that Mr. Bradley has committed the offence, it would be competent for the council, under the provisions of the Municipal Act, to order *prosecution, under the section al the Municipal Act whirls rebus to bribery. But I have to observe that the °eiders** upon the "object of bribery is by no means complete. (Hear, hear.) It was not a matter which the special map mittee was appointed to inquiry into, and it was not Tw ined ahy further than just what came incidentally out in the cuoveriation between Mr. Bradley and Stopforth. Bat before a prosecution could be instituted the evidence shoull be gone into much more carefully and fully upos that paint than is the case at prestat I should also state that under the Municipal Act, any person guilty of bribery may be proceeded against by information, or by an action, to receive a penalty. It is not in the province of the coas tal to sae far a penalty thew...lees. Any person may be proceeded against at common law or by an inf.rmatioe under the statute, but what I wish to say is, that the eel dem now before the council is by no means sufficient he sustain a proceeding of that kind. Mr. Bradley—Mr. Mayor, having assumed this positlete. I ttli.k you will •ee the propel. ty of my not offering for Omar rations. (Cries of " Hear, hear.") 1 re council then proceeded with the filling up of the vacancies upon the committees.—Northeni Daily Tunes. ---- In another column will be found a report of the meeting of Buenos Ayrean bondholders held to-day. The committee, after a long delay, have at length adopted the measure which we and the more energetic portion of the bondholders recommended many months ago—viz., the despatch of a special commissioner to Buenos Ayres to watch over the affairs of the debt, and to urge a settlement of it upon the government. The committee having thus tar dily taken the initiative, the bondholders in public meeting at once give their formal sanction to the step, as they would doubtless have done long age had the proposal been brought before them, and an opportunity giver. them of expressing their opinion. The half-yearly interest falling due on the loth inst. on the Seven per Cent. Bonds of the Matanzas and Sabaoilla Railway is duly advertised for pay ment on that day.

DEATH OF CAPTAIN WARNER.—This gentleman, so well known for his inviation of what was popularly termed thi. " long range," died very suddenly this week, baring twin a day previously in the apparent enjoyment of perfect health. It appears that recently Captain Warner was very sanguine of coming to some arrange. mint with the Turkish government for the use of bis in venting; and whether the excitement arising from this expectation had any connexion with his sudden death, is matter for conjecture. We regret to bear that there is a widow and Wit n children, as ter as is known, without any provision. It is not yet ascertained whether the "secret " of the invention is lett in deceased's papers; but he usually declared that it would he. The rank of Mr. Warner was that of Master in the Royal Navy.

IS 10 AND CORN KIDDERMINSTER PUBLIC ROOM EXCHANOE.—A correspondent, dating Dec. 7, favours us with the following:—" This day the first stone of the public 7001113 and new corn exchange was laid in this town. The procession formed at the Guildhall, First came the police, full dressed, then a large number of the workmen and others; next came the Kidderminster' brass band, followed by the rev. vicar (Mr. Claughton), the Right Hon. Lend Ward, Robert Lowe, Esq., M. P. for the borough ; the mayor (J. Kitely, Esq.) and the corporation; Sir T. Winnington, M. P. for the neighbouring borough of Bewdley ; Mr. AVesthead, formerly M.P. for Knurls borough ; the clergy, in full canonicals; then the share holders and other inhabitants, n. , t forgetting the Grammar school boys, • Ito closed the procession, which came np High-street, deem AVorcester.street, up the Oxford-road to Vicar-street, where the edifice will be erected, on a piece of ground formerly called the Vicarage-garden. The parties having come to the ground, everything being in readiness, the vicar invoked • blessing on the undertaking. Lord Ward Made a good and graceful use of the silver trowel, and delivered an excellent speech. Afterwards Mr. Lowe, the member for the borough, made a most effective speech. He was followed by Mr. Westhead, who proved, by his address, how much he had the interest of this borough at heart. The company then gave three hearty cheers for her Majesty, the same for Lord Ward, and three times three for Mr. Lowe, and one cheer more also for Mr. Westhead and the ladies. The procession then re-formed and came up High street to the Lion Hotel, where a dinner was pro vided by Mr. Rhoades, and the company enjoyed themselves with the good things of this life. Everything passed off well. The building will be of great use to the town when finiabed, there being no room large enough here to give concerts or hold large meetings. A Pious 'Strum:amt.—The Court of Assizes of the Herat.li, in its last sitting, tried a man named Valet for the murder of M. CiliValie, cure of Poilhes, id the dis turbances which followed the coup a', tat of December, 1851. In 1815 he was brought from Spain, in which coon toy he was born, and be has since resided in France. In 1842 his sister S .phie died, and left all her property to M. Cavalit. This caused him to entertain a violent hatred of that gentleman, and though M. entrain. showed him nume rous acts of kindness, his enmity appeared rather to increase than diminish. When the disturhanct sof 1851 commenced the accused was confined to his bed from sickness, but prayed to God to give him strength to go to Poilhes to murder the cure, and he declared that if he were not strong enough to walk he would hire a carriage. On the 6th December he went to the curt's residence, and he was so weak that he had to lean on his eon. Ile entered the house, and asked the cure to relieve him as be was in dis tress. The cure wen: to his secretary, and whilst opening it, the prisoner discharged a pistol at him and shot him deed He then returned home and displayed a red flag. The jury declared him guilty and the court condemned hint to death.—Galignatii. MINCING-LANE.-THIS DAY.
