No man could vond the spy system but with detestation. Let item look armsnd tlbon aid see what was the effect of the spy gate's. It was demoralising to the men so employed, aid deenoraEsing to the country is which it was allowed to exist ; and he believed that so StrOtig was the f cling against it Chit the cepression of public opinion would put it down. (Ii •ar ) The system had been long existing because the pearle had not denounced it. but the time had now atria when they must denounce it, and he was glad to find that Inc metropolis 1911 now coming forward to show its most of the iniquity of the system.

HALL OF COMMERCE. l'esto day s meeting of the subscribers to this establishment took plate at the Hall of Commerce in cones quence of a notice being given to them to vacate the hall for the purposes of the members of the Stock Exchange. Kr. Lotion was appointed to the chair. Mr. G &mu. said he had been induced to become • meat ha of that hall from the prospectus which he held in his hand and would read to the meeting. It would be seen that there was • clause in it by which the proprietors re served to themselves the right, with a view to keep the hall select, of returning back to any subscriber his subscrip tion, after deducting a proportionate part thereof for the portion expired of the current year. This was to ( f ive the proprietary • just right, of which they had availed themselves, but the exclusion of the whole body of mem b :re. some of whom, like himself, had been so from the b •finn.nir, was both unjust and illegal, and merely the ein e. ',men! of the power of might against right. (Ap plause.) The case of the subscribers was more im portant than appeared at first sight—here was a large body of men, who had congregated together in trade, with its relative connexions, who were to be ousted frank their placo of business at a moment's notice. (Some, shame) He would ask them whether the following notice was not disgraceful, for it contained no names, not even that of the printer, and sot by it they were expected to abide. The notice was this: "'Notice is hereby given that' the Hall of Commerce being required for other pummel., tha same will be closed to subscribers on and after Tuesday, the 24th day of May instant; and the subscribers are re spectly informed that in pursuance of the right mused to the proprietors their subscriptions will be returned to them, after deducting a proportionate part thereof for the portion expired of the current year for which subscription has been paid, and that the same can be received on application at the Hall." He did not think the members of the Stock Eseharge would behave thus towards them, as many of them were most upright men ; but, at the same time, there were a few amongst them whom he might denominate the worst characters in existence, for they bad not agreed to put thair own hall in repair baton, it was required. (" Hear, hear," and laughter.) Would such men as Hutchinson, Cape!, and others, take a mean advantage of this place, in order to put their own in repair, sad destroy the business of a large body of men, who bad got it together after man years of trouble ? lee was of opinion that no s u ch t r i c k would he played upon them by those gentlemen, but it might by other parties. (Hear, hear) They ought to have some profesaimid adviser called in, so as to bring the question at once before the Court of Chancery, Under that impression he had prepared the following resolution : "At a meeting of the subscribers of the Hall of Com merce. held in the Subscription-room ea the 23rd instant, it was unanimously resolved that the conduct of the pro prieton is illegal and unjust, and that the committee of the Stock Exchange be informed that any attempt on their part to take possession of the Sabscription-room, to the ex clusion of its present subscribers, will be resisted ; and the committee of the stock exchange an further required to take notice of this resolution, in order that no unpleasant collision or breach of the peace may take place." Mr. PIPER seconded the motion. The CHAIRMAN put the reeo — and asked if say one opposed it, which not being the cue the resolution was pawed unanimously. A committee of the following numbers was then sp. poir,ted for receiving subieripticas—anosly, limn.

The general meeting of this society was held yes terday, at its house, No. 12, Hanover-square ; Colonel CIII•LL011111 in the chair. Mr. Rarnoso BARKER, of Gloneestenhirs, said that the tint basin's' of the day was the election of a president fir nest year ; and as he had ea several previous occasions hid the pleasure of nominating potions for that iMpOr taut office. be was bold enough nee sawn to take that duty u,son himself. By the constitution of the society any chair. man was eligible for reelection after three years front the date of his office, and there were several samples of this re appointment. Following those precedents, be begged to propene Mr. Philip Panty, than whom there was no one to whom agriculture, both scientific and practical, owed so man. (Cheers.) That gentleman bad already turned his attention to the laming of Lineelaahire, and inamigh as the ant year's show was to be held in that county, be felt sure that his appointment would act only be felt ass great compliment by Mr. Peen Woolf, but would prove of great utility to the Liacolashire party. (Hear, hear.) Mr. Futuna Honeys, of Esse:, seconded the motion, which was carried unaainsmuly. The Earl of 130/1111T then moved the reappointment of the trustees, which was seconded by Mr. DILL, one of the auditors. sod agreed to rum. di.. Mr. RICHARD MILWAP.D. of Notts, proposed the n•elee- Coo of the vice-presidents, which was also caroled unani moesly.

James Hudson) then read the re gent, which contained the following statements: " The council have to report that sine, the last general meeting in December, 47 members have bees lost to the society by death, and the names of 134 other members have been removed, on retirement or otherwise, from the list ; while 170 new members have during the same period been elected into the society, which now consists of 90 life river. nom 147 annual governors, 739 life members, 3,928 annual as mben, and 19 honorary members—nuking a total of 4,923 member. The current cash-balance in the hands of the bankers, at the commencement of the present month, was 3,300/. ; of which sum the council ordered 8001., on account of life compositions, to be invested in the public funds; the capital of the society now being 10,7611. Tho council have the satisfaction of reporting, that the peat practical objects, for the development of which the society was originally founded, continue to receive a power ifol impulse through the communications in its journal ; the trial and exhibition of implements, show of live stock, and assemblage of firmer', at its country meetings ; the practi cal disceesions at its weekly councils; and the personal co operation of its members distributed throughout the king dom. The two classes of direct investigations instituted by the society 1. For the purpose of discovering new modes and conditions of chemical action in reference to animal, vegetable, and mineral matter ; and, 2. For obtaining MOTO exact acquaintance with the origin, nature, and treatment of discuss prevalent from time to time among the live stock of farmers; have been pursued with vigour by the professors of the society, and have already lcd to important results is the one case, and to much valuable experience in the other. " The Gloucester meeting will be held in the middle of July neat. The entries of implements are more numerous than in former years, the arcs engaged for their exhibition amounting to i 0.3,000 square feet, and the shedding re quired being nearly a mile in length.

"The entries fur live stock will not ease until the Ist of June, but those already made indicate the prohability of a very large show in that deportment-including firms the peculiar situation of the place of meeting, an intereriee exhibition in the classes of Hereford, Devon, and Welsh cottle, Welsh ponies, sheep, pigs, and farm poultry. The termination of several lines of railway at the Oloncester Station will prove highly favourable to the ' convenient transit of goods and passengers from every pert of the country. The council have made increased preparations fur the due trial of the implements compet ing for the prises of the society, and fur the exhibition of thrashing machines to be kept in motion during the show, for tee public display of their construction and powers. " The counc I have decided that the city of Lincoln shall be the ;dace tor the country meeting of the society next year; and that the district for the country meeting to be held four years in a!vance of the present year, namely, in 1837, shall comp rise the counties of Dorset, Wilts, Somer set, and Hants. The council have the pleasure of remark. lag, in conclusion, that there never eras an epoch in the history of the society, since the date of ;its formatior, when its practical objects were more fully recognised, than they are at the present moment, by the spontaneous desire of so many promoten of agricultural improvement of every class in different parts of the kingdom to become enrolled as members on its list; the number of new members elected into the society during the last five months being nearly equal to time tool number of those elected during the whole of the previous year." On the motion of the Earl of Roses ry, seconded by Sir Rt. Throckmorton, of Berkshire, Bart., the above report was unanimously agreed to. Mr. J.

Yesterday an adjourned extraordinary general meeting was held at the London Tavern, to receive the report of the director.. J. 0. FRITH, Esq., took the chair. The following report was laid before the shareholders:— " The proprietors will recollect that the meeting of the 2nd inst . , which was adjourned to this day, was convened immediately on the receipt of notice from the Admiralty, that the mail contract had been terminated, in consequence of the return of the Australian, and the inability of the com pany to peovile a vessel to take her plate, because it ap peared to the directors to be a matter of which the abase holden ought to receive the earliest and tallest information." The report, after stating the particulars of the breakdown of the Australian, proceeded—" On the 17th March, the Sydney. the second ship which the company despatched, completed her first voyage after an absence of 225 days. The Melbourne and Adelaide are pro-1 scenting their voyages, and the former is re ported to have arrived at Melbourne on the 4th of February ; and the latter at the Cape of Good Hope on the 21st of March. The Victoria, the last new ship, will sail from London in the coarse of neat month. She has already performed one trial trip in a highly satisfactory manner, end is now on a second trial cruise in the Bay of Biscay, prior to proceeding on her voyage. The proprietors are aware that the delivery to the company, both of the Adelaide and the Victoria. was delayed much beyond the dates fixed in the contract with the builder. The two matters, however, upon which the directors have more espe cially to report to the proprietors are, the withdrawal of the mail contract, and the proposed arrangements for a union with the General Screw Steam Shipping Company. With regard to the first of these, the circumstances under which the contract way withdrawn were explained to the pre prietors on the 2nd instant, when the letter to the Ad miralty we , read, in which the secretary, by order of the directors, stated the proceedings adopted by the company from its commencement, and concluded as follows : Having then done so much, and in so short a time, having expended 300,000/. in the equipment of five large and power ful steamers, having been the pioneers in a steam route of the utmost importance to the mother country and the colony, and having been exposed to great and unexpected difileulties by the alterations made in their arrangements with the government, by order of your honourable board, I am desired, by the directors of this company, respectfully, but firmly, to state that they feel an act of great injustice lhas been done to them by the unusual and peremptory mau -1 nee in which the contract has been determined; and further, that they feel assured they have furnished such reasons as will induce my lords to forego the penalties re ferred to in their letter of the 13th inst., should they still revolve to confirm the determination of the contract." The following reply was received :—" Admiralty, 12th May, 1853.—Gentleuien,—Having laid before my Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty your letter of the 22nd ult., I am commanded by their lordships to acquaint you that upon • full consideration of all the circumstances of the case, my lords see no reason to depart from their former decision, and must adhere to their resolution to determine the contract (or the conveyance of the mails between this country and Australia. 2ndly. As re gards your not being allowed an opportunity of stating your case, that every means of doing so, in writing, has been open to you ; and that this board considers commu nisation in writing greatly preferable to personal inter views. But 3rdly, As the arrangements that subsequently occurred in the order of the Packet Departures, may in some measure be traced to the decision of the Admiralty, regarding the time of the second vessel's sailing, my Lor, under all the circumstances of the case, and which are Peculiar, are not disposed to enforce the penalty for the breach of contract.—l am, gentlemen, your very obedient humble servant, B. Ossoaree.—The Australian Royal Mail Steam Navigation Company, 69, Lombard-street." The propriston are aware, from the explanations which have less given in parliament, that the poli , :y of the go vernment with respect to mail contracts has undergone • essedderable change, to which, as well as to the return of the Australian, with other circumstances, the tonoisation of the mmlettet mast be attributed.

This would act moat unfairly towards this company, which had bought their shim for ready money, whilst the Screw Company had obtained theirs on lion credit. The consequence of this was, that whilst that cocapany's 1,800 ton ships would cost 68,0001., the 1,800 ton ships of the Australian Company would only cest 35,0001. (Hear, bear.) The sum, therefore, for this company to give for a union with the Screw Company would be somewhere about 81,0001. Ile considered this company was not in such a deplerable state as to be °hilted to amalgamate under these disadvantageous circumstances. The hon. director then re- I ferred to the various loans the Screw Company was liable to beyond its paid-up capital, as a further drawback. He showed that the Australian had performed the voyage in 95 days, the Sydney in 64, and the Melbourne in 79 days— that " old Tub," as it was called. " only fit for a coal depot." (" , and laughter.) It was certainly to be regretted th a t they had lost the government contract, but then it coat them 30,0001., whilst their payment from the government was but 26,0001., added to which was the evil of their being limited to certain ports, supervision of admirals, and other restrictions. After comparing both the speed of the vessels, the profits realised, and the future prospects of both companies, Mr. Hawes decided on recom mending the shareholders to reject the proposition for amal gamation with the Screw Company, but to aeree to the re commendation of the report to appoint a committee of inquiry to go into the whole subject, so as to judge for themselves. (Applause.) Mr. Matti (a director) saw the propriety of an amalga mation, by which he considered both companies would be benefited. - Mr. A. Moons thought they should not decide at once on amalgamation or against it, but wait till such further in formation was given as would justify a decision one way or the other, which would be best done by a committee. (Hear, bear.) The CHAIRMAN put the question as to adopting the re port, which led to a discussion in which it was resolved to receive the report only, and to leave the question of amal gamation to a committee of investigation. The committee having been formed, a vote of thanks was passed to the chairman for hie impartiality, and the meeting &dimmed. Kahn Intelligence. EQUITY COURTS.-YESrERDAY. ELIOIA Vice-CuAseku.oa kortaanzy. IN al Tai DOYLE AND DEAL RAILWAY COMPANY. ix PARTE LORD LONDEABOU01:011:LIABILITY OP DIEU. TOILY:GCARANTZE. This was a motion on behalf of Lord Londesborough, who was one of the directors in the above company, that I I the order made by Muter Brougham directing a call upon them might be reverted. The facts of the case have been reported on several occasions. When the question was first before this court, the Vice-Chancellor de cided that the allottees, who had received a guarani es against liabilities from three of the directors, Lord Landes- borough, Mr. Gorte, and Mr. Beauclerk, were to be exo nerated. This dec'sion wasappealed from, and the Lord Chancellor and Lords Justices reversed what his Honour had decided. The matter was then referred back to the Master, in order that the liabilities might be elusified. This had been done, and the three directors above men tioned were declared liable, but there was no evidence to show that the directors had joined in the guarantee. Mr. Bacon and Mr. Hislop Clarke appeared in support of the motion, and Mr. Follett, Mr. Glasse, Mr. Bailey, Mr. Selwyn, Mr. Roxburgh, and Mr. Madmen for the official manager and some of the shareholders. The Vice-Chancellor said it was evident that the question as to liability as between the directors and allottees had been decided by the Court of Appeal. The three directors, Lord Londesborough, Mr. Gorie, and Mr. Beauclerk, were present at the meeting when the guarantee was given to return the deposits without deduction if the bill was not obtained. This guarantee was expressed to he on behalf of all the other directors, and they would certainly be liable if it could be proved that they had sanctioned what the three directors had done ; but there was nothing to show that the other directors had sanctioned the giving of this guarantee, and therefore be could net bold that any of the other directors were liable, and the motion must consequently be refused. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.-YESTERDAT. Implos rtautco.—Tigroas CHIRP' RTC' !IRVIN Ka. PPM= MACLI, Ma. JVSTICI Clll6llll/LL, AND Ya. JURTIW TALIOURD. Their lordships tills morning, with the judges of the other courts, breakfasted with the Lord Chancellor, and so did not reach Westminster until about two o'clock. On their arrival, they walked through the hall, according to custom, end shortly afterwards took their seats upon the bench; but the matters brought forward were of no public interest. It will be seen that Mr. Justice Mauls was one of the judges present, it being the first time of his sitting upon the bench since his recent illness. His lordship wonted to be quite recovered, end well able still to render those ser •ices to the profession and the public which long since placed him in the first rank of judicial eminence. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.-YESTERDAY. The May adjourned general session of the peace for the county of Middlesex, commenced this morning at the Sessions-house, Clerkenwell, before Mr. Witham, deputy au 'natant judge. There were 65 prisoners for trial-60 charged with felony. and 5 with misdemeanor. Mr. Witham briefly charged the grand jury. THE Dilly DAL The Assistant-Judge took his mat at a little after 12 o'clock, and, before proceeding to try eases, said he wished to take that early opportunity of stating something with regard to the business for Wednesday. That day, he be i hayed, would be the Derby-day, but he bad no interest in it himself, baying been at the Derby but once in hie whole I life ; but he believed that a great portion of the public hail a great desire to go to the Derby, and the Howe of Com move est the very laudable example of suspending its sit tings, so that the members could go to Epsom. Wednesday being for bail cases no injustice would be done to defend ants if the court did not sit on that day, as they would not be kept in custody ; and he thought, therefore, if it was not absolutely required that the court should sit on that day, they should nut bring witnesses, jurors, and others there, but give them an opportunity of availing themselves of the great London holiday. He wished to know, therefore, if there was any objection to the court not sitting on that day. The members of the bar said this would be a great con venience, and the suggestion would meet with unanimous assent. —.--- It was then arranged that the business for Wednesday should stand over. LADINS AND THEIR POCKETS. In the second court, before Mr. Witham, two boys were tried for picking ladies' pockets. One of them had been before coovieted, and was sentenced to seven years' trans portation, and the other not being known, was sentenced to a term of imprisonment. Mr. Witham said he should not allow the expenses of the prosecutrix in either case, because they bad carried their purses in pockets in the front part of their dress, where every facility was afforded for the thief to steal them. The Recorder of Liverpool had determined that in such cases, no prosecutrix should receive her expenses, if she had her pockets in her dress, and a similar determina tion had been come to by that court. The expenses of the indictment, &c., would be allowed, but woods would be allowed to the prosecutrix. The Assistant Judge, in the NUM of the afternoon, re peatedly complained set the noise in the ball and outside the building, and in answer to a question, the beadle stated that the police officers sent to attend the court, to preserve order and, keep the doors, were changed almost every ses sion. The assistant judge thereupon said, this was not as it should be ; the same officers should attend every session, and then they would be well acquainted with their duty— would know who to let into the court, and who to keep out, and great incovenience would be prevented. Re then directed the inspector on duty to communicate to the proper quarter the wish of the court that the officers sent should be those who had performed the duty before. THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY EVENING, MAY 24, 1853. THE POLICE CO URT& MANSION-HOUSE._ Ga. riel Sane Garrett, charged with having committed extensive fraud by altering th e amount of • letter of credit for 2101. to 6,2101., was brought before Alderman Wire for final examination, by Thain, of the detective City police. Mr. Mullen ,, of the firm of Bash and Mullein, solicitors to the Committee of Bankers, appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Weather for the prisoner. Mr. Mullen. said it was his intention to elceethe case by calling a Russian merchant whose house had been de frauded to a considerable extent by means of the forged do cument and by the prisoner. Mr. James Murray Wilson said—l am a merchant carry ing on business at St. Petersburgh under the firm of Wilson and Company. We are correspondents mentioned in the letters of credit of Duncan, Sherman, and Co., of New York. On the 21st of February last their letter of credit N 0.41 was brought to me by the prisoner. It pur ported to be for 6,2101. On that day I paid to the pri• toner the equivalent in Russian money of 1001. sterling. He then signed the two bills produced for 401. and 601. upon the Union Bank of London, both dated the 21st of Fe bruary, and signed by him, in my presence, " Ga briel Sans Garrett," and both purporting to be drawn on the Union Bank of London on account of Duncan, Sherman, and Co.'s letter of credit No. 41. On the 224 of February the prisoner called upon me again and mid that he required a further sum of 2,6001., end it was to pay for some diamonds which he had bought. I was to pay the amount upon order which he was to give to the parties from whom he said he had obtained the diamonds, end if any balance remained I was to pay that over to himself. He called again the nest day, but on the same day he came again on the 'Change, and requested me to provide a sum equivalent to 1,2001. sterling more to be paid in the same way upon his order In consequence of that request be gave me the two bills, namely, one for 2,6001. dated the 224 of February, and drawn as the other bills on the same letter of credit. I saw him sign these bills, the other is for 1,2001. and drawn in the same manner. In consequence of envie giitimre bus I paid the three drafts produced signed by the The amounts of the bills were marked off upon the he; staredit, sad I returned the letter of credit with these emdeaseensmis on it to the prisoner. The drafts were pa i le the rimer% order, but before he left I made • manietket of the amount which would be caning to the primer apes payment of the drafts on us. There was • small balance of about twenty-Ave shil lings, which I phi to the prisoner. I then transmitted the bills by poet to ear London house, in whose favour they were drawn. The bream was paid to the prisoner before the cheques were presented ; but he had told me the amounts of the sibenees he was to draw. There were pre vious endearments ea the letter of credit, one of which was of the Union Bask of London, and another of Shickler and others, of Berlin, and • third of Mare and Co., of Moscow. I made a note ur account on a slip of paper, stating the ex change and tne amount he would have to receive. Cross-examined by Mr. Wontner—l did not k ee p a copy of the letter of credit. Cross-examined by Mr. Mullens—lt is not usual to keep a cony. We should have detained the letter of credit if the amount had been exhausted. Alderman Wire asked whether Hr. Wontner desired to make an y further observations on the case Mr. Wontner said the only point to which his attention had been directed was as to the 1 egal effect of the docu ments having been presented in London by an innocent agent, whether this act could be binding in a criminal sense upon the prisoner for a transaction in which he was implicated abroad, out of the jurisdiction of Ithe British courts. He had looked into the cases, and not one of those already decided applied to the present case. The cases alluded to had reference to innocent persons who had been deputed to do an unlawful act for the benefit of those who had employed them as agents. In the present cue the transaction was completed abroad, and th e f act of " the cheque being presented in London was on act done for the benefit of the bolder of the bill, and could not have been presented in London for the benefit of the prisoner. The prisoner had committed no unlawful act, either by himself or constructively by any innocent agent in Englaud. What he did was done out of the jurisdiction of the English courts, and therefore the prisoner was entitled to his dis charge. Alderman Wire—Suppose this bad been a case of forgery of the letter of credit, and there was no evidence to show whether the alteration had been made in this country or abroad ? Mr. Wontner—There is no evidence to the effect that the alteration has been made in England. The only evidence is that the document has been uttered abroad. Giving a forged English bill abroad would not give jurisdiction to the courts in England, although it might have passed through the hands of several indorsers. Alderman Wire-1-Buppose that this were a civil truss.- tion, the iodoner of the bill would be the agent for the drawers to present it. In my opinion, the agency in this e.se is implied by law. Suppose • person at Boulogne gives to the captain of a vessel n forged cheque payable and to be received in London. Would not that be • criminal offence for which he might be answerable in the Engl eh courts? In the ease before me it was never intended that the money should be received at Berlin or Moscow, but in London; and I consider that there was such a contrivance of the prisoner as to bring this cue within the jurisdiction of the English courts. Mr. Mullen—ln the ease in which evidence has been given to day, the bill was given by the prisoner to Messrs. Wilson and Co. at St. Petersburg, for the purpose of being presented to the Union Bank in London. Alderman Wire—This is a case of se much importance to the banking and mercantile community, that I consider it to be my duty to commit the prisoner for trial; but as there may be some doubt as to tho law applicable to it, although there can be no doubt whatever as to,the fraud committed by the prisoner, I will consent VI take bail for him, himself in 5001., and two aunties in 2501. each. The prisoner was then formally committed for a misde meanour in having fraudulently attempted to obtain the monies in question from the Union Bank of London, with intent to detraud that establishment. WORSHIP-STREET. Mr. John if Cathuy, landlordui the Salmon and Ball public-house, in the Bethnal-green-road, appeared upon a summons in which he was charged with having un lawfully refused to receive and afford proper accommoda tion to a private of the 2nd Tower Hamlets Militia, who had been quartered at his house. Mr. Childs pleaded guilty to the charge on behalf of the defendant, but disclaimed any wilful infraction of the law on the part of his cheat, who had acted under the mistaken idea that if he furnished the soldier with an equivalent in money to provide himself elsewhere with the requisite accommodation which he was unable to furnish in his own house, he would thereby fully satisfy all the requirements of the statute. Under these circumstances, he trusted that the charge against the defendant would not be pressed to a I conviction ; and, as the same erroneous impression was widely entertained, to his certain knowledge, amongst the general body of licensed victuallers, it was highly desirable that the actual state of the law relating to the subject should be extensively made known, for their future guid auce and protection. A militia officer, who attended for the prosecution, banded to the magistrate a letter from the Secretary of State to the colonel of the regiment, in which he fully ex plained the provisions of the act on the point referred to, and directed that a summons should be taken out in every instance where they were not complied with. Mr. Hammill said that it was perfectly clear, according to the express terms of the Mutiny Act, that a licensed vic tualler was not justified in venting money to a soldier quartered upon him in lien of the diet and accommodation to which he was entitled, but that he was bound to furciob them in kind, either in his own house or at some other con venient place in his immediate neighbourhood. As it was obvious in this instance, however, that the defendant had no intention to evade the law, and it being the first case of the kind that had been brought under his notice, he should order the summons to be discharged on. payment of costs. NAVAL. PORTSMOUTH, MAY 23.—The Black Eagle, steam yacht, Muter Commander Petley, returned from Ply mouth last night, having on board the Muter-General of the Ordnance, Lord Raglan, Lieutenant-Colonel Cater, R.A., Lieutenant-Colonel Andrews, ILA., Sir J, Burgoyne, R.E., &c., who Ind been along the coast on a visit of in spection. Ruing disembarked they proceeded to Lond on this morning. The Imperieuse, 60, screw steam-frigate at Spithead, Capt. It B. Watson, exercised her crew to-day in reefing and furling sails. She was paid advance of wages on Saturday. MILITARY. THE 23RD REGIMENT (ROYAL WELCH FtSl - lit division of this regiment win arrive at the Isle of Wight on Wednesday from Chester, vie South ampton, to be quartered at Parkhurst barracks. The other divisions will follow in the course of the week. THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE. (From the Mark-low Borns.) The weather appears to have been of a similar character over the greater part of the Continent to that ex perienced here, viz., cold and hush, up to the middle of the month. Ryo is said to have suffered extensively from the night frosts, and has risen in value at some of the Baltic ports as well as in Belgium. The wheat trade seems to have been little influenced abroad by the continuad dull reports from hence, and quotations have in general been maintained with remark. able firmness. In consequence of the Whitsun holidays, little business was done in the early part of the week. Danzig letters of Tuesday's date state that higher prices had been asked for wheat at most of the markets in the in terior, which bad had the effect of rendering holders of fine parcels in warehouse unwilling to make any concession. Really choice qualities of Upper Polish had been held at equal to 61s. per qr., free on board. The latest accounts from Stettin inform us that the sup plies of wheat from the growers had fallen off ; and that stocks on the spot had been greatly diminished by ship. runts to England. The exports, since the opening of the ' navigation, had amounted to 110,000 qrs. The contracts entered into during the winter for spring shipment had been nearly all fulfilled, and there was no disposition to consign. Red Silesian wheat, weighing 6111b5. , was quoted at 413.; choice 621bs. to 62ilbs. parcels 425., and 611bs. Pomeranian, 425. per qr., fres on board. Freight to London was 3s. Gd. per qr. At Rostock scarcely anthing was done on Monday and Tuesday, owing to the ho lidays; and prices remained the same as before. At the near continental ports great firmness seems to have been displayed, notwithstanding the very dull tone of the English advice.. At Hamburg, on Tuesday, wheat was fully as dear as on the previous post-day. For a parcel of Beale, weighing only 681b5., but to be made up 601bs. per bushel, 425., and for Glib.. Upland, 445. 6d. per quarter free on board, had been paid. Rye had been in lively request, and had risen Is. per qr. in value. Barley from Denmark bad beta in quired for, for Norway ; and 631hs. quality was then worth 245. per quarter. In the Dutch markets very little change seems to have taken place; but in Belgium juices have rather tended upwards—more especially for rye; which article was 6d. to Is. dearer at Antwerp on Thursday than on that day week. The reports of the rye-crop are generally of an unfavourable character; and this may, after a time, in fluence wheat. The advice. from France do not speak favourably of the crops, the weather having continued cold. At Paris flour was held rather higher, on Wednesday ; which had, how ever, the effect of checking the demand. The value of wheat was about the same as on that day week. At Nantes a heavy stock of flour was held, which bad influenced the value of wheat ; and, Lthough the latter article had come forward rather slowly, prices had receded le. per qr. The news from the Mediterranean do not speak well of the crops in the south of Europe. A letter from Marseilles, dated 12th inst., states that considerable injury had been dons in Tunis by drought. These unfavourable accounts bad caused a better demand for wheat at Marseilles; Polish Odessa was then quoted 30e. 9d. up to 325. 3d., and Mari , anopola 365. 9d. per qr. free on beard. From the more distant ports on the Black Sea we learn that very liberal supplies of wheat were expected down from the interior; in anticipation of which, prices had rather given way. At Odessa, on the 6th inst.. wheat was decidedly easier to buy ; good qualities of soft Polish being then obtainable at 245. 6d. per qr. Freight to London was 10e. to 10s. 6d. per qr. At Galata, on the 2nd May, the best quality of soft wheat was quoted 25e. 11d. to 275. 7d. ; and at Ibraila 245. 9d. to 261. 9d. per qr. free on board. Freight to United slingdom 12s. to 12s. 3d. per qr. The latest advice. from America inform us that flour bad risen in value at the principal ports, in spite of the discour aging English accounts. Stocks do not appear to be heavy there; and the shipments in progress for British ports were moderate. Freight from New York to London was 2s. 9d. per brl. on flour; and Md. to Bd. per bush. on gain. In the Canadian markets business had remained quiet. At Montreal, on the 2nd imt., extra-superfine flour was quoted 20s. Id. ; superfine, 19s. ; and sour, 17s. 3d. per brl. White Canadian wheat might have been bought at about 355. 6d. per qr. free on board. Freight te Liverpool was Bs. 3d• per. qr. for wheat. REGISTRATION OF ASSURANCES.—Yesterday, the important government bill for the registration of assurances in England was printed. It contains as many as 103 clauses. A land register office is to be established, and proper build ings provided. A registrar and assistant-registrars are to be appointed. The whole of England is to be divided into districts for the registration of property. The time when registration is to commence under this measure is to be pub lished in the London Gazette, and, after the time specified, assurances of land executed after the commencement of re gistration may be registered by depositing the original, or a copy of the document, and by making proper entnes. Wills affecting lands at law or in equity in England are to be re gistered, and indices are to be kept. An index, to be called " The Index to Bankrupts and Insolvents," is to be kept at the register office for the whole of England. It is provided that assurances authorised to be registered are to lad void as against purchasers, unless registered. Regula tions are to be made under the act, and the Treasury is to fix the fees to be taken. The new law is not to affect any copyhold estates, nor shares in companies, &r. . . EXTRAORDINARY FREAK OF A MARINE.—OR Sunday afternoon a private in the Royal Marine corps, be longing to the Victory flag-ship, at Portsmouth, perpe trated a very extraordinary freak. lie had gone on board in the morning in a state of intoxication, and wishing to return on shore again in the afternoon, and being refused leave to do so, ho secretly undressed himself, and tying his clothes up in a bundle, he jumped into the water and swam on shore, landing on the Common Hard (the most fre (vented place is the town, and which was crowded at the time with people returning from church and chapel) in a complete state of nudity. Having very coolly walked dewn the liatd, he was taken into custody by the police, and was boyesterday (Monday) handed over to the Victory by the rough magistrates, to undergo the midmost in store to him, and which he so richly MARKETS. THE TEA TRADE.—Messra. Franks and Sons' eject lee, dated Landon, May 23, says : During the earli-r pac t of the month the tea market was firm, but without much activity, the trade waiting the settlement of the duty qurs tioa ; but on the arrival of the last advic.s per overland mail, showing the alarming progress of the rebellion in China, considerable excitement prevai.ed. Merchants withdrew their teas in anticipation of a further advance on the arrival of next 'claim. Transactions have, however, been very large, both on speculation and trade account, in second-hand parcels, and iarge profits have been paid on recent purchases. The unsettled state of the duty ques tion has caused much inconvenience. Had the new duty been received before the making up of the month's stock, a very large d. ficiency would have been shown as com pared with the previous year. Black tea : Common Con gou was largely operated in on the arrival of the mail, and rose rapidly from 109 d. to Hid. A few parcels above aver age quality sold at Is. Purchases can now be made at Ilid. In the medium qualities there has been a very large business. The scarcity of first-hand parcels has increased the anxiety to purchase, and very large contracts have been made in seconi-hand parcels at from is. Id. to is. 6d., showing an advance of fully Id. to 2d. per lb. on our last quotations. Daily transactions give additional firmness to the market, and every indication is shown of still further improvement: fine parcels have been much inquired for, and have partici pated in the advance. Oolong and Souchong have sold well at higher rates. Flowery Pekoe remains without alte ration. Green Tea: In this market a good business has been done, generally at advanced rates; the supply of good and fins descriptions has been ample front recent arrivals, which have sold readily at full prices ; medium qualities, especially young hyson, continue scarce, and realise im proved rates. Hyson has been much inquired for from Is. 6d. to 25., and shows an upward tendency. Canton de scriptions have been more in request, and from their present low prices may be expected to participate in the general im provement. Scented Tea: A good inquiry exists both fur scented orange Pekoe and scented caper, chiefly the better descriptions; holders are asking advanced rates, and a fair business has been done at id. to Id. per lb. on previous quotations. COTTON.—lacErtrooL, MAY 23.—The market closed with less buoyancy than last week, but prices were firm at the full prices of Friday. The Canada advice' 'Cate the total receipts to be 3.017,000 bales, and the excess over last year 275,000. Middling at New Orleans was quoted 10c. The sales to-day amount to 7,000 bales, and comprise 5,000 Americans (500 on speculation and 00 for export), 200 Permian and Maranhams, 61d. to 70.; 200 Bahia, God. to 61d.; 700 Laguna 51d.; 400 Egyptian, 6ld. to 11d. ; 500 Bursts, 3ld. to 411.; 30 Sea Islands, 2s. to 31. 4d. New YON!, MAT 10. There was not a very large amount of business done at the Stock Board to•day, but generally prices were well sus tained. At the second board the market was firm and in some eases buoyant. In Government and State Stocks and Railroad Bonds there is but a moderate business and prices are unchanged. The market has been moderately active for Exchange for the Boston steamer and banker's sterling closed firm at 9/ with a free supply. Other good bills were 9to 9/ per cent. Francs are 6.15 to 6.131. In Freights there is rather more doing without important change in prices. Cotton is offering freely. To Liverpool. 35,000 erg 40,000 bushels. Grains 6d. ; Flour, 1 ; Resin, ; 500 to 1,000 bales Cotton 9.32 d to b•leid. ; 250 chests tea 17s. 6d. 100 bhde. tallow, 225. The steamer of Saturday had 126 us. beef at 331. To London, 30 hhds. tobacco, 30s. To Havre 200 or 300 bales cotton, le., and 10,000 lbs. bone, le. Havre, 8 dols. to 10 dole. A vessel of 300 tons was chartered to load at the East for Sierra Leone, thence to Marseilles, and thence home, for 6,000 dollars and port charges. A timber freight was made from Quebec to Li verpool at 425. A deal from Miramichi to Bristol at 100 a., and two or three other deal freights at previous quotations. To California there is a fair amount of transactions at 40 dol. 66e. ; 600 bble. flour were taken at 3 dole. The supply of money en call to day is quite large at 6to 7 per cent. The demand is active, but freely met. Paper is 7 to 8 par cent. Co7rote.—The operations in cotton since the 3rd inst. have been only to a moderate extent, and without spirit or animation. The market generally is not pressed, and the principal holders only sell when tull rates can be obtained ; occasional sales, however, are made under the quotations annexed for immediate delivery and payment. The sales have amounted to 10,000 bales, and have been for ship ment, chiefly to Liverpool. Included in the sal , s are some parcels in transit from southern ports to Great Britain. The export since the 3rd inst. have been—To Liverpool, 3,179 bale* Glasgow, 653 ; Havre, 1,797 ; Hamburg, 726 ; Rot terdam, 127; Bremen, 392; St. Petersburg, 820. Total, 7,693 bales. The excess in receipts at the ports is reduced to 275,000 bales as compared with the corresponding dates last year. For next week's table the receipts will not vary much from the corresponding dates last season. The excess in exports to Great Britain is again reduced, and now stands at 81,000 bales. To France it is only 4,000 bales less than at same dates last year. FLotta AND MEAL.—With increased arrivals of Western State flour the market is easier and dull for low grades, but firm for the better brands, and quite active. The demand is mainly for the home t rade. Shippers are not in market at present prices, and the low grades close heavy. Canadian is more plenty, and is easier ; the demand is not very active ; sales 0f1,300 barrels, at 4 dole. 681 e. to 4 dols. 75c.
