IMPORT DUTY ON HARMONIUMS.—The New Customs Court has given its verdict in the case of Solo mons against the Custom-house officers, which we reported last Saturday. Sir Thomas Fremantle delivered the fol lowiag judgment . .—Under the strict interpretation of the tariff, every stop or plug should be considered a stop for duty, and such was the understanding of the officers of the Customs, who, after communication with the trade, framed the rates of duty to be applied to harmonicons, in lieu of the old duty, ad va/orem. But it appear by the evidence now adduced by persoas connected with the manufacture and sale of such articles, that they attach a d,fferent meaning to the term stop s and consider a complete set of reeds in vibrators corresponding with the number of the notes in the instrument, should be considered a stop, and that the stops in the instrument then under consideration are, in fact, half-stops, as it requires a bass and a treble half-stop to constitute a stop. The board was not satisfied that such is the proper meaning of the term. But, alter fully considering the conflicting testimony of the very respectable gentlemen connected with the trade who have given evidence in court, the board are of opinion that the importer in this case is entitled to the benefit of the doubt, and they allow the articles in question to pass at the duty of 12.. each, as not exceeding three stops. But the board are, therefore, of opinion that an alteration in the firma of the tariff should he made with the view to carry out the intention of the government. 81114001. dose to-day. closing; range of yesterday. The heaviness of the market was caused by the fact that a more unfavour able interpretation was generally put upon the aspect of foreign politics. It is apprehended that the reported success of the Russian fleet must lead to some movement on the part of the naval forces of Great Britain and France, which have hitherto been lying so inactively in the Bosphorus. Although it is believed that the extent ei the Russian success sis •ery materially exaggerated in the published accounts, it seems to be placed beyond a doubt that some important naval advantage has been gained over the Turks. This aggressive measure of the Ruzeian commanders cannot fail to embitter the quarrel upon which the attention of all Europe is at the present moment so earnestly fixed. The fall in the market to-day is the more worthy of nolioe from its oecuring in face of large and influential pur- chases, stated to be on account of parties who have of late been operating for the rise simultaneously on the London and Paris markets, prepaiitory, as it is presumed, to some financial operation on the part of the French Government. A variety of adverse politi cal reports were in circulation throughout the day, and tended to assist the prevalent depression, which was further aggravated by intelligence of heaviness on the Paris bourse of to-day. Consols opened 941 to 95 ex div. for the opening of Jan. 18, improved to 93 to 1, and had declined at the official close to 941 to Z. At four o'clock a fur ther reduction had taken place, the quotation being 941 to a only. The official business report is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money (shut), 96 with div.; ditto, for the openinf, 18th January, 941, 951, 95, 941, 95, 941 ex dm. three per Cent. Reduced, 93, 951, 1, 4, 95.

Exchequer Bills remain quoted 6s. to Os. prem. The foreign stock market was rather flatter in tone, in sympathy with the heaviness of Consols. Spanish Deferred fell to 22 to 1, on intelligence of the defeat of the Ministry at Madrid on the railway qufstion, and of the subsequent suspension of the Cortes with out any date being fixed for its re-assembling; but a partial rally took place in the afternoon. Mexican was flatter, and Russian Stocks were also more offered. At 4 o'clock Mexican Bonds were quoted 241 to 25. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 69 to 71. Granada Deferred, BtoBl ; ditto Active, 21 to 22. Sardinian, 90 to 92 ex div. Spanish Deferred, 221, to 1; the Certificates, 5 to per cent. Sales are reported as follows : Danish Five per Cents., 1031, 1. Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 64 : ditto Four per Cent. Certifs., 96; ditto Four per Cent. Bonds, 93j. Equador Bonds, 51. Granada Deferred, 81. Mexican Three per Cents., for account 16th Dec., 241. Russian Five per Cents., 1121, 1, 112, 113 : ditto Four and-a-Half per Cents., 981, 1. Sardinian Five per Cents., 90, 901, ex div. Spanish Old Three per Cents, 47 ; ditto New Deferred Three per Cents., 221. The money market continues easy, but to obtain discount accommodation below the Bank of England minimum the paper must be very good and short dated. Letters from Odessa of the 2nd Dec., received to day, report a large business in wheat, at higher prices. About 90,000 quarters had been taken during the week, almost exclusively for Mediterranean ports. Freights continued high, at 1655. per ton of tallow, equal to 235. 6d. per quarter for wheat. The exchange on London was a shade more favourable for this country, at 21.25. In the market kr foreign exchanges this afternoon only a limited business, as is usual at this season of the year, was transacted, and quotations exhibited no change of any importance. The rate on Paris remains steady at 23.27} to 30, at three months; and 25.05 at short. On Hamburg the rate ruled at 13.5 to Bills on Amsterdam were in some request at 11.151. In paper on St. Petersburg the transactions were very limited. For bills on Vienna and Trieste there was some demand, with transactions as low as 11.30, at which rate, however, drafts on Trieste re mained over at the close. . . . . Owing to the more warlike interpretation gene rally put upon the position of foreign politics, the tallow market ruled 6d. to 9d. per cwt. higher to day. The closing price of Russian was 565. 6d., for spring delivery. It appears that a considerable proportion of the specie imported from New York continues to be transhipped to the continent. The Liverpool advice. mention that of the 660,000 dols. brought in by the Arabia 277,022 dole. were at once placed on board the Margaret steamer, for Havre. The 25th auction of the foreign redeemable debt of Spain is to take place at Madrid, on the 29th inst., for which purpose 187,500 reale have been assigned by the government. Tenders will be ad mitted at the Spanish Commission, in London, until the 19th inst. We perceive, from the Sydney Empire of the 14th Sept., that the New South Wales Coal and Inter colonial Steam Navigation Company's Bill had been referred for the consideration and report of a select committee, to consist of Mr. Cox, Dr. Douglas, Cap-i thin Dumaresq, Mr. Flood, Captain King, Mr. Mor ris, Mr. Nichols, and the Attorney-General. Formal notice is given that application has been made for a " supplemental charter" for the Australian Direct Seam Navigation Company, for the purpose of varying the terms of the charter previously granted. The creditors of the " Liverpool Royal Brewery Company" are called upon to prove their debts before the Muter of the Rolls. We have received from Mr. Richard Thornton, chairman of the committee of Portuguese Bond holders, a copy of a little pamphlet, containing a translation of the speech of Senbor Mello e Carvalho, Honorary Minister of State, delivered in the Portu guese Chamber of Deputies in the earlier part of the present year. It is chiefly valuable as proving that Portuguese statesmen are not ignorant of the nature of a sound financial policy, notwithstanding the dis credit cast on the nation by the shameful treatment to which its foreign creditors have been subjected. We make the annexed extract, in which the speaker denounces the confiscatory character of the forced conversion lately decreed : The conversion and reduction of the interest of the inter nal and external debt was ma le with precipitation and in justice. It is from these two financial operations—capital isation and conversion—that our greatest discredit both within and without the country proceeds ; it is from them, and only them, that at the present moment our progressive discredit proceeds, and not those MSC! to which errone ously or deceitfully it is desired to attribute it. It is to facts, and not to professions and words, that prudent capi• talists give credit. Dues the government pay and satisfy its obligations punctually ? Dues it observe a rigorous and inde fectible system of wall understood economy and good admi nistration of the public revenue ? DJes it endeavour by proper means to develop the national resources ? Does it respect property and fulfil contracts ? Satisfying all these conditions, it has credit ; otherwise every discontent is in voked against it. It is a generally atcepted maxim that conversion cannot, nor ought it be made, except under cer tain requisites, the concurrence of the creditors being the essential condition. With what right can the debtor im pose conversion and reduction upon his creditor without offering and proposing to him the option of receiving or converting ? A forced conversion and reduction, imported but not accepted, is an act of despotism ; it is an act of insupportable violence. How, without violating the good faith of contracts, justice, and the sentiments of honour:and national pills, can the debtor say to his creditor, who bad assisted him in his necessities, labours, and agonies :—"Thy titalo of 100, whatever shall be its value in the market, when the depreciation itself proceeds from the acts of the In Land shares to-day the chief feature was in I those of the British American Land Company, which were in marked request, and rose about 91. per share, closing 76 to 78.

MINES. TorSDAY EVENING. The market for British mining stocks to-day has been very inactive. The sudden •' run" in the shares of some of the English mines in which gold has been discovered has materially abated, and the high rates of premium are in no instance maintained. The shares of the South Devon Consols Company have fallen to par to 1 prem., and Castle Dines to 11 to 2 per share. West 'Wheal Jane shares, however, are steadier, at to 1 prem.

At 4 o'clock Colonial Gold were quoted 3 to 3 prem.; Great Nugget, 3 to 3 prem.; British Australian, 9-16 to 7-16 dis.; Nouveau Monde, 5.111 to. 7.16 prem.; Agus Fria, 1 to 1 prem. There was a great demand to-day for the shares of the Royal Santiago Company, although the report. received by the Arabia do not disclose any new fea ture. The shares rose about 30s. each, being at one time as high as 71 " buyers." The Mexican and South American shares were also rather better. The Peninsular Mining Company's shares, on the other hand, showed a downward reaction, closing 11 to 11 prem. Port Royal shares were in demand, and rose to 11 to 11 prem.

The front room on the same floor was also partly burned ; and on the floor he found another gentleman named Cannon. He was burnt very much, and was at once carried to the hospital. The deceased appeared not to have been to bed the night before, but there was no means of ascertaining how the fire wee caused. Williata Thurlow, • farrier, of Tottenham street, said that he had known the deceased for years. He was • free man of the Drapers' Company. He saw him last alive on Friday night, and he lett him at his late residence at l 2 o'clock. For some time past he had been in a very des ponding state, and had complained of being unwell. He had often said that he was afraid he should never get better, as the doctors were playing with him. He talked rather curiously to witness, and prayed that " God would take him that night." Ho also said to witness, If you don't see me any more after this night, come and take my goods, fur I cannot live in this England." Witness re , ceived a lever from the deceased, which induced him to call upon him that night. Wisest he arrived he told him that be had sent for him to collect some debts in, sad what he received he begged might be handed over to his mother, as he was going off to Aur trans. Witness told him that he owed him some money. which he would pay at Christmas, when he replied, If I die to-night the debt dies with me." He then gave wit ness a 201. note, end asked him to take it to his mother. Witness said that as he was going abroad he might want the money. The deceased replied that he had got caliber and folded the note up like a screw ot tobacco. He was quite sober at the time. There was a fire in the stove, but not larger than a pint pot. A candle was burning on the man tel piece, with a long snuff. When he first went into the room the floor was strewed with paper, silks and satins. There was a pile of paper in the room, perhaps a foot high. The deceased was in the act of pulling off his clothes when witness left. The coroner was informed that the other unfortunate sufferer in the hospital had stated that he was up at seven o'clock on Sunday morning, when he detected not the least appearance ot tire. The Coroner said it was possible that the deceased might have been seized with a At, or have become Insensible from some other cause, end whilst in that state have dropped the candlestick, and hence the melancholy occurrence. In fact, he might have been suffocated before he was burned. The jury, after consulting, returned an open verdict as to the cause of the fire.
