The S. pteerfwr general session of the peace for the 'curvy of 34,dtlic.ea commenced yeeterduy morning at the Court•hou.e, on Clerkenwellitroen. before Mr. Serj ant Adam.. the Aviffunt Judge, Mr. IVitharn, Mr. litutley, Capt. !Lowder, and father magittrates. The number of Fr amers committed for trial was G 3, viz., 61 for feloney, sad 12 for to;sdemeanottr. iThe Assistant Judge in his charge to the grand jury oh eerved that the calendar was a light one, considering the length of time that had eight,' since the last session .it Clerkenwell. The number of committals during that time according to the usual average should have bora over PO. The diminution that had taken place was ant ►ttr.butable to any one particular cause but to an odd combine:ion of causes, and it was a very gratifying circumstance t►at few olfcnces were now committed through want of employment and lived. Indeed those offences lod of late year,. greatly decreased and were almost scarce, particularly so just now, when great number, of the persons by whom such offences were ujnrr►lly eounaitted, were out at luarest-work, bop-gathering, and other like eut:iloyment. These offences, now so 'Are, were very numerous six years ago. and he was Almost afrsi l thiy would again be on the increase. After giving the grand jury the usual ins.ructions as to their duty, the Aventine Judge dismissed them to their room. Rol:IITRIZS By RAILWAY SEKVANTS. !fairy Vaps,m, 23; Wm. Hewitt, 17; and 'John A'ethereutt, ; were indicted, the two first named for stealing 'we codfish and three haddock,, the property co the Great Northern Railway Compeny, their masters, and the other f.r felontote.ly receiving such property, well know ing it to have been stolen. Edward Hicks, P.C. 40 0, stated that at about half-put 5 o'clock on the morning of the 23rd of August, he was on duty in Gray's Inn-lane, when he saw a van belonging to the Great Northern Railway turn out of Holburn into that lane, on t Way to King's-cross. Minces was driving, and Ilewett was sitting at the other end of the vehicle. As it was going alt sag, a doukey and cart, driven by the prisoner Nethereott, a street dealer in fish, passed it, and Oleo turned round ann followed it up behind, where upon the van stopped, and Ilewitt handed to Nethercott • sack, out of which be took some fish. He placed the fish in • hamper which he had with him in the cart or barrow, and returned the sack to Hewitt. The van then went on, followed by the cart, when witness stopped them, and told the prisoners ho should take them into custody, which, with the assistance of another officer, he di e. The prisoner Nethereott said he did nut mean to do it. When Nether cott's hamper was examined, two codfish were found in it. A clerk in the goods department of the Great Northers Railway proved that on the morning in question the pri soners Clapson and Hewitt were sent with a van load of fish. cod and haddock, to deliver at Billingsgate. The codfish was consigned to Mr. Saunders, and the haddock to Mr. Tapley, fish salesman, of Billingsgate market. Junes Bardolph, clerk to Mr. Satindere, stated that on the day is question he received seven boxes of fish from Claws. There should have been seventy fish, the usual Lunn, r, and the number snvoictd on that occasion, but there were bet silty-eight. The bout, when delivered, Were all looked. lie had akt y, and the packer at Grimsby had another. One of the company's servants who took charge of Clap son's horses after that prisoner was in custody, proved that in the nnse hag of one of the horses he found a key. Hr. William. ' superintendent of the police on the Great Northern, said he ttit d the key produced by the last wit ness, and he found that it opened the whole of the fish boles. Neither of the prisoners had say right to such a key. A constable deposed that be searched Hewitt, and found in an inside pocket of hisjacket three haddocks which had been taken from the van. _ . . . The learned counsel having respectively addressed the JurYr Jar. Anistant-Judge slimmed up, anti The jury found Clapson end 'Lewitt Guilty, and Ac tuated Nethercott. The Assistant-Judge said the pritoners bad been placed in situations of trust through their good character. They had taken advantage of that good character to plunder their employers, and if the sentence he was about to pass did not put a stop to these robberies by railway servants, the sentences in such cases would be increased until they were put a stop to. He then sentenced each of them to hard Ulmer in the House of Correction for one year. AZTIVL RONNERT. ✓oases Phillips, Is, end Iloury Abu koPie, 15, were in dicted fur stealing a watch, the property of William Ed- moans, in he dwelling-house. There was another indict ment egginst the prisoners, and Phillips was indicted on a similar charge separately. Mr. O'Brien defended Mackenzie. . _ TM prisoners were tried on one charge only, but the evidence in each of the three cases wee very mach the same, and it showed that the prisonsre had been carrying on a rather ingenious plan of plunder. It appeared that on the 18th of last month they entered the shop of Mr. Edmonds, an umbrella maker, 15, East-read, liortoa, sad Mackenzie asked Miss Edmonds, who was behind tbs coaster, for • ash-hook. While she was serving Massa a third boy, who had with him a carpet bag, jiincd them, sad placed the carpet bag on a stove in the shop, and took from it a lies pigeon, with which he walked up to the back parlour door, and asked Mrs. Edmonds if it was not a good ass, and said something about flying it. Mackenzie joined him, and they let the pigeon loose, and It flew up the staircase. One of the boys and Mrs. Edmonds went up stairs after it, while the other boy, being left alas is the parlour, helped himself to • watch that was Imagist' over the mantel-pie e, and which could be NM 'MI the street. The pigeon was caught, the three left with it, sad directly afterwards Mn. Unmade sired the watch. Oa the 12th of August t,iy went into a gings-beer shop kept by a widow, No. 8, Beabrigtti place, Hackney-road, and one of them, by prete•ding that he had dropped a penny Into the parlour, got permission to go in to get it, and he stole • metal watch from the chimney-piece ; and on the 18th of August Phillips, with another (not in custody), went into • shop in Union-street, Kingaland-road, and stole • watch from the chimney-piece of the back parlour in precisely the same manner. The jury found them both Guilty. The Assistant Judge said Phillips, though young, was a great rogue, sad, under the new law on the subject of truseportatior, he should sentence him le four yeah• penal servitude. With regard to Mackenzie, who, so doubt, had boa trained by Phillips, he thought the best thing that szuld be dose for him would be to puss upon him such a mutate• as would have the (fleet of sending him to Park hurst. Mr. O'Brien submitted that the cues amounted only to simple larceny. The Assistant Judge said it war larceny in a dwelling house. 7 - Mr.O'Brien said the vain. of no one of the watches was put so high as 61. On reference to the indictment it was found that the wain. of one of the watches was laid at 61., of another at 61., and the third 10e. . . . . _ The witnesses were then questioned as to the value of the watches respectively, and the highest value put upon any ow of them was 41. _ The Mast ant-Judge said the case must, after this, be treated as one of simple larceny, urn he then sentenced Phillips to two years' hard labour, and Mackenzie to six swaths' bud labour. Boon Mi. Wrrtur. A wand mat was formed, in which Mr. Witham tried several cases._ IYal4an Hewett. 33, previously convicted, was indicted for, and he pleaded guilty to, having stolen a set of harness, value 605., the property of Arthur DP:lmam. The prisoner was sentenced to four years' penal ler vit ode. James Mitchell, alias Upton, 30, was found Guilty of stealing a bag and half • bushel of flour, value bs. , the property of Rebecca Jolly . Sergeant Haney, 14 , said the prisoner was one of the worst character. in London. He was one of a garg who waylaid countrymen as they came to the metropolis with hay, straw, &a., and, under the pretence of getting a ready sale, got the property into their own possession, applying the proceeds to themselves. In one case the prisoner got a load of bay from a poor countryman, and left him at a coffee-shop while be went to sell it. He returned, and gave the countryman two half-crowns, wrapped up in a piece of paper, stating that that was all he had got for it (be had received 31. 15e.), and, not suspecting anything wrong, he pat the paper in hie pocket and went off home. When he found what tam the paper really contained, he told his master how he had been served, but the master would not believe the story, and took the man before a =- giant • , and the result was that the unfortunate fellow un derwent two months' imprisonment in Hertford gaol. Mr. Witham sentenced the prisoner to four years' penal servitude. Wallows Wood, 30, previously convicted, having been out of prison but a few Jaye, was found guilty of stealing a handkerchief, value 5e., the property of George Cutt, from his person. Sentenced to 4 years' penal servitude. As the prisoner was being removed, he turned to the pro secutor and said, " May the curse of God light upon your head all your days." THE POLICE COURTS.

The defendant *Med galley. Hr. Holm saM—On the 2nd September I was is the defendant's ansibse at the Flower-pot, Bishopegete-street. We were going to /Liarland, and the omnibus was fall beide, having twelve paeeengere. I told the defendant that the vehicle was fnL, but be insisted upon petting in • lady, although resseastratall with seven or eight times by me sod other passengers. He was by no means uncivil. I often ride with him. The defendant—l acknowledge I did put in the lady, bet it was raising at the time, and I thought it a pity not to try and amommodate her, which I thought might be done, as there we. no other lady ia the omnibus, and she would have got mid if exposed. Alderman Lawrence—The defendant has pleaded guilty, and I mast fine Ids for the transgression. He most pay tbos_penslty of 6e. sad oasts. Tim entuplainaat-1 do not wish to have him fined at all. Heis • very civil person, and I merely wish that he should knew maib be is vll to allow more than the law allows to enter das_mes._ iWerisTiLorrrease—Wlsat do you bring hint hero for t The rem,' ,inont—To Backe him understand that ho is sot to •.itrcrowd his coanil.us. - . Alderman Llertence— And I tine Lim to make him re mPmb r as well as andentand the law. . . Pwri..k Walsh, a Isbouring man, in the employment of the Gas Light and Coke Compel. was charged with baring s•: ha a large piece of pipe, the property of the company. Mr. Johnson, surveyor to the company, stated that he company sustained gnat losses from plunder committed by men occasionally employed upon the premises. The pri soner was apprehends d as he was conveying the piece of pipe to a plumber, who has been in the habit of purchasing the " swag" from any sort of customers. The prisoner—l never thought of stealing. I saw the piece of pipe amongst a heap of stones doieg nothing, so I took it up thinking to get a drop of beer out of it. Alderman Lawrence—l know that robberies of this kind are of constant occurrence. so much so, indeed, that those who commit the plunder b gin to think that they are no robberies at all. The prisoner was sentenced to imprisonment in Holloway Gaol forsi weeks. Juhn Herrin, 7 person of respectable appearance, was charged by a policeman with having committed an assault. The defendant was seen at a late hour at night leaning over a poet half-drunk and half.asleep. Two policemen fearing that he would tumble into the street and get en tangled in cab-wheels, offered to help him, and when he ungraciously refused their aid, told him that he most move on, and raised his anger by their peremptory direction. lie at once began to use language which proved that he had been in the habit of disputiug the wholesome power of the force, and when expostulated with lay down and upon his back kicked and fought with astonishing vigour, but was at length conveyed to the station-house, with a strong escort of constables. The prisoner declared that he bad no recollection what ever of any part of the transaction, and he most heartily begged pardon of the police. Alderman Lawrence—l fine you 10s. The prisoner—l have not got more than Os. I hope you'll be satisfied with that ? (Laughter.) Alderman Lawrence—No, I can make no compromise with you. If you do not pay 10s. you must go to Holloway for seven days. WORSHIP-STREET. James Tauter, an elderly man, of respectable appearance, who was stated to be a person in independent eircumstancm, was charged before Mr. D'Eyncourt with an unnrovoked and violent assault upon a married woman, named Amelia Manning, residing in Anne's-place, Hackney-road. The complainant, who was in such a stets, of suffering sad exhaustion that ski was scarcely able to give her evi dence, stated that on the evening of Saturday last she was proceeding through the hackney-road in the company of • female friend when she accidentally met the defendant, who was the landlord of a house formerly occupied by her husband, and she availed herself of the opportunity to ap prise him that her husband had been compelled to take out a summons against him to recover the amount of certain rates which they had disbursed on his account during their teaancy. Witness at the same time expressed her hope that he would liquidate the debt to save him from the expense and annoyance of legal proceedings, but the moment she had uttered the observation the defendant, who was par tially intoxicated, exclaimed, with an oath, " Yes, i'll pad . you at once; take that, you —," and, instantly raising his stick, struck her • terrible blow on the head, which felled her to the round in • state of insen• lability. On recovering her consciousness, she found herself supported in the arms of her friend by another woman who had witnessed the awult, and observing that tho defendant was in the act of making rapidly off, site called • policeman and gave him into custody. The complainaut added that she had been confined to der bed the whole of the previous day, under the care of a surgeon, and had been ever since in a state of excruciatiag pain from the effects of the pri soner's violence. A respectable married woman, named Elizabeth York, gave corroborative evidence. Mr. D'Evncourt mid that it was a case of such brutal and vindictive violence that he did not feel himself justified in imposing a pecuniary penalty upon the defendant, but should order him forthwith to be committed and kept to hard labour for six weeks in the House of Correction. The prisoner appeared completely staggered by the seve rity of the sentence. Marks Old, a cab driver, was summoned for exacting ISM than his legal fare. Mr. 8. Hewitt, the complainant, said that on the sth inst. he hired the defendant by time. He told the defendant that he should do so because he had to make a call, and might be detained. He got into the cab at 10 minutes after nine, and after being driven to York-place, Baker street, and thence to Ranelagh-grove, was set down at five minutes past ten, when he gave the defendant 25., the time occupied being under an hour, but he demanded sixpence wore, on the ground that he had exceeded the distance of four miles, which was all he was compelled to go in the hour and complainant gave it him. Defendant's answer to the charge was that he was not guilty of excess on the ground that there had been in this ease two distinct hiring*. When the gentleman first spoke to him on the stand near St . Peter's Church, Pim lico, he said he was going to take him by distance, as he was going to York-place, where he might be detained some time, sad should want him to bring him back. After he had proceeded some distance the _gentleman put his head out of the window and said, "Did I say distance or time I" Defendant replied " Distance ;. " upon which the gentlenian said he wished to be driven by time. The hiring was of course from that moment changed, and he then began to drive by time ; the demand, therefore, consisted of 6d. for distance and 2*. fur time. The complainant substantially admitting this statement upon re-examination, Kr. Broderip observed, that under the circumstances it was quite clear the driver might claim for two distinct hiring', and dismissed the summons. James Flays, aged 36 =lrish labourer, in the em ploy of Mr. Saint, a of Shepherd s-bush, was charged with having Gamed thideath of his wife, Elisa beth Hays, by beating her about the head. Mr. Martin, •solicitor, who had been instructed on be half of the prosecution by the deceased's brother-in-law, detailed the facts of the case, which will be found in the subjoined evidence, and added that the prisener had not been living with his wife for some time past, but had been cohabiting with another woman in Nottinf-hill. The de ceased had lived in Kensington, and was in the habit of going over to her husband on Saturday nights to receive what money he chose to allow her lee her malateassee. It was on one of those visits that the desmassi nesteed such injuries from her husband that weed her death ea Sunday evening last. Thomas Taylor, a labourer, also deposed that about half pest 11 o'clock on Saturday night last he was in Shepherd's Bush market, with the prisoner and his wife, and another man named George. He saw the prisoner knock hie wilo down twice with his fist. Waen she got up the second time she ran behind witness for protection. He told her to go from behind him, as he thought the planner might fancy he was harbouring his wife and would attack him. She then went away, and the prisoner ran after her, end threat ened with an oath that he would kick out her brains. He kicked at her several times, but witness believed he did not touch her with his feet. The prisoner also declared that he would do for her that night. The deceased ran through the market, and the prisoner followed after her. Mr. Beadon—Did you see anything more of them that night? Sergeant Lowe informed his worship that the witness was locked up soon after, for being drunk and riotous. The witness, in answer to further questions, said the pri soner was intoxicated at the time, but his wife was quite sober. Witness heard the deceased ask her husband to come home, and he immediately struck her and knocked her down. lEdward George, a brickmaker, in the employ of Mr. Saint, was next called, and he corroborated Taylor's evi dence in every particular. He was certain the deceased was in no degree the worse of liquor. Pullen constable John Serie, 69 T, said—About twenty minutes put one o'clock on Sunday morning I was on duty near Shepherd's Bush Market, and, while standing close to the Royal Hotel, I heard a noise opposite where the ground is being dug out for the foundations of some new buildings, as if some persan was scrambling up the bank. I thought it was the constable on the beat, and went across to the place to see if it was him. It was very foggy at the time, and I could scarcely see anything before me. I stood for • minute, and not hearing anything, I got under neath some railings and passed into the grounds. I then listened, but could not hear or see anybody. I then turned on my lantern, and, after walking about twelve yards, I saw the prisoner standing in front of me. I asked him what he did there, and he replied with an oath, What business is that to you. He appeared stupified at the time, and seemed to tremble very much, which I attributed to his having been lying down in the cold. He then turned his face to the spot where the de ceased was afterwards found, and continued standing for a short time looking in the same direction. I told him that he must lean the plan, as he had no busineas there, and I pointed to • spot were he could get out. I then walked a few paces, thinking he was following me, but on turning round I found that he had not moved from the place. I then want back to him and saw that he had gone further down, which was nearer to the place where the deceased was afterwards found, and I told him that if he did not quit the plate I should be compelled to lock him up. He sighed and shivered a good deal, which I still attributed to the fog and cold. He then went away, and I did not see him return. I stood a short time about the plate, and not hearing any noise, and thinking the priso n e r h a d gees off, I came away, and heard nothing more until the deceased was found in the morning. She was dis covered in one of the holes in the ground which had been thrown up for the formation of a house, within air yards from the place where I saw the prisoner sta n ding. e If It had not been so foggy I must have seen the deceased . Jainew:Tarliag, police constable, No. 264 T, said, shortly after six o'clock on Sunday morning, I was abotzw . duty when I had my attention called to • foundations bad been dug for some new hams% acer tAie Royal Hotel, by some women, who told me e Amok wee lying in one of the holes apparently lifeless. I WON ft the spot, and found the deceased gaits insensible, end 'sniffing very much from the mouth. She was lying upon bee dm* which was very much bruised and swollen. I Wail ler over, and she then tried to opea her eyes. She maingei to open one, but the other she was quite us able to do in consequence of it so mei swollen. I obtained the stretcher, being with the assistance of another officer, we removed her to the station at Brook-green. I remained with her meta 6 Veto& in the afternoon, and d urin g the whale time she new spoke. like was than removed to the bow ologisd by her brother-in-14w in I:hook-green-plate, and I uid,r steal she died within five 'lnnate, afterwards. Edward Lines, the brother-in-law of the deceared, sold— About 3 o'clock on Sunday atte-rnoon, in consequence of the information he had received, he went after tne prisoner. and saw him in Shepherd's Haab. He told him the state his wife was in tit the station, and he replied, "Thank God, be had nothing to do with it, for he had not seen her since eight o'clock the previous night." The prisoner also said she was then very drunk, and he persuaded her to go home. Mr. John Brown, a surgeon, stated that he first saw the deceased shortly after 7 o'clock on Sunday morning. She was then in a state of collapse, very cold and quite insensi ble. Ile did not at that time form any opinion as to whe ther she would recover, but whca he saw her at half-put 10 o'clock, he thought she would not recover. He could not state the cause of her insensibility, as It might have been produced from drink, or from a blow. She appeared to have received a violent blow on the right eye , and also on the lower jaw. The face was very much swollen, and it seemed to him that the "mill of the right eye had been struck. It must have been dune by some round instrument, or by the fist of a man. He should be able to discover the cause of death, upon • post mortar examination of the body. Mr. Beadon said he should remand the prisoner for a week, and in the interim, a coroner's inquest would, no doubt, be held on t►o body, and if there wu any fresh evi dence, it would then be heard, and by that time the cause of death would be known.

At this fair yesterday we had a large supply of Sheep and Lambs, exceeding the number penned het year, and of the primest quality, particularly the Soulladowns. The at tendance of buyers was equally large. In consequence of the great quantity of keep, the farmers asked very high prices, and the business was not quick at the commence ment, but before the close a good clearest* was effected at the extreme rates of the late Britford fair, and in some in stances an advance of le to 2s. per head more was obtained for the avenge. Wethers, from Me. to 46e. ; Ewes from 28e. to 40s. ; and Lamb from 225. t. 325. per head. Two pieces of plate of value of U. each were given to the owner of the beet 100 ewes, and also to the owner of the best 100 wether Lamb ; and the primer lob for competition were sold at price. much above the average, and elicited much admiratioe. About the usual show of rams, good ones selling and letting at high prices. The show of Cattle was very meagre, and little business was consequently done. In the Rorie fair there was a smart show as regards number, but the quality was not very first rate ; the busi ness done was not very much, but the most useful kind of Horses that were disposed of brought good prices. THE CORN TRADE. (From the Mark•laid Ezpress.) BRITISH. neigh tau weather has been very far from tauserabbo, hub. had bat one really fine day during the week, still fah goer has been made with the carrying of grain in the aces ftwind parts of the kingdom. On Mon day, Tuesday, and Wednesday there was no rain ; since then we have had frequent showers, and thecarting of corn has consequently bees saapeadod. There is still so large a proportion of the crop ahead, that the character of the weather for some weeks tome will have great influence ins the trade. That the auslity of the grain exposed in the fields has already sabred km the late rains, cannot be questioned ; and a coatinaanee of wet might be productive of an immense amount of mistake The imps* for the future have certainly not improved slue our lost, and the ultimate result of the harvest threats= to be even less satis factory than appeared likely a week or two ago. The com plaints as to the yield of wheat have become almost uni versal, more especially from those quarters where the pro duce has been subjected to the test of thrashing. That portion of the barley crop remaining on the fields must inevitably be injured in colour; and, unless we have a period of dry weather, that which has been lodged will, we fear, sprout on the ear, and be rendered unfit for malting PurPose.• Oats matinee to be tolerably well spoken of, and will, we are inclined to think, give a better yield than any of the other corn crops. The accounts which have reached us the last few days in regard to potatoes are less favourable than those previously received. This root Is particularly susceptible of injury from wet ; and the disease appears to have spread since the heavy rains which fell in most parts of the kingdom last week. This seems to be the case on Ireland, as well as on this side of the channel ; bat as supplies are everywhere being hurried to market, in consequence of the appro. bensioas entertained as to whether those apparently sound will keep, the immediate effect is to dolmas prices of the article, and this to a certain extent influences the value of wheat, by lessening the consumption of bread. With respect to the probable future range of prices of wheat, oar views have undergone no change. Circum stances have occurred within the last fortnight, of a nature to have a depressing effect ; we alludemore especially to the sadden cessation of the French demand, and to the arrival of very large supplies from the Baltic. It must, however, be evident to all, that the withdrawal of the orders to pur chase wheat on French account has not been caused by a discovery that the harvest there had given a better result then anticipated, but that merchants have been de terred from proceeding with their operations in consequenee of the interference of the government with the price of bread. It follows, therefore, that if the wants of that coun try an really as urgent as they are believed to be, whatever enactments Louis Napoleon may think proper to enforce, France will not be able to feed her millions without large imports of foreign ; and the probability is that buyers from thence will before long again appear in our markets. The next point for consideration is, whether the supply just received from the north-eastern ports of Europe is likely to be followed by arrivals of equal magnitude. This we think highly Improbable, as the shipments made from the Baltic during several weeks past have been, for the meet :part, to !Frans. The quantity which has now come to hand is the accumulation caused by the prevalence of westerly winds daring the greater part of last month. Many of the vessels have been a long time on passage, whilst others have not long left the ports of loading. A few days of north and east winds brought the latter forward nearly as soon as those that had been out for several weeks, and the chances are that the quantity of corn now on the way from the Baltic is insignificant. It seems to us, therefore , that a renewal of the French demand may b e calculated on with tolerable certainty, and that it may be fairly con cluded that we shall not receive so large a supply again any week this year as that which has reached our shores the last eight days. Meanwhile, a large portion of our own harvest is in great jeopardy, and, without wishing to encourage speculation in any shape or way, we must still regard it as merely a prudential measure on the part of these engaged in the trade not to allow their stocks to run too low. . _ The arrival' of wheat eoeateriao into the port of London have been small, only 4,827 qrs. baying been reported up to this (Saturday) evening. The shortness of the home supply has, however been little felt, ha v i ng h a d very liberal reosipta from a broad, viz., 88,833 qrs. The market has stood this enormously large supply better than might have been expected ; and in case the arrivals fill off (which, as already intimated, is mare than probable) the slight re ac.ion which has taken place in prices will probably be epeedily recovered. The few parcels of Wheat exhibited on the Essex and I Kent stands on Wedffesday were held firmly at prices similar to those previously current, which being unwil lingly paid, few sales took place. Matters remained in much the same position on Friday; and in the absence of busi ness of the slightest i mport..ace, quotations underwent no change. There were a good many small lots of old inferior Lin colnshire and Cambridgeshire wheat offering towards the close of the week ; but the prices asked 3eiog considered too high by buyers, very few sales took place. A large proportion of the wheat received from abroad this week has come to hand in very bad condition, which has rendered it necessary to land it at once. There has, (wise quently, be, n no pressure to sell from on board, and for the hoer qualities in g y previous prices have hem firmly demanded. The fall from the highest point has not, thus far, exceeded Is. to 2a. per qr. ; and from present appear ance we question whether buyers will succeed in purchasing on easier terms next week. Nothing of much interest has transpired in flatting car goes; indeed, the only sale which we have heard of for some days put has been that of a cargo of Egyptian arrived off the coast, at 40s. per qr. There aro about eight or ten cargoes off the coast undisposed of; for Polish Odessa, 50s. 6d. ; for Odessa Ghirka, 545. t s 545. 6d.; and for other sorts corresponding rates are asked. The very high prices demanded for wheat free on board at Baltic ports has Ere vented much being dine in this branch of business. The sole for town-made flour has been slow ever since the millers raised the nominal top price to 604. per sack, ' but they do net appear to be by any means anxious to enter into forward contracts. The transactions in American flour have not been important this week ; it is probable that more would have been done if there had been a better choice of I quality, the quantity of really fresh remaining in ware house being very small. Scarcely any barley of home growth has come to Irani, land the few small lots of new which have appeared have sold at the extreme rates of last week. Foreign, ,nr grind. ing, has met with a moderate share of attention; the market is bare of good qualities, and heavy fresh sample would brie g 30e. to 325. per qr. The operations in malt have not been particularly ex tensive, but needy buyers have had to pay very full prices. The arrivals of oats from our own coast and Ireland have been quite trifling; having, however, received a very abundant supply from abroad, the smallness of the home arrivals has not been felt. Of the 120,97-i qrs. foreign oats reported, 100,000 qrs . aro from Archangel and St. Peters burg. The Russian oats are of light weight and inferior quality this season, hence they are selling at relatively lower terms than other sorts. A moderate business was done on Wednesday, in Archangels, at 18s. 91. to 19s. per qr. On Fridsy the demsnd improved, and the finer kinds were held at 19s. 6d. to 20s. per qr. A very large propor tion of the supply has already passed into the hands of the dealers, and the probability is that prices will not go lower. Good heavy corn is by no means plentiful, sad prepared Danish leave actually- been sold at 245. to 25e. per qr. Beans have moved off rather tardily, at late rates. Peas have brought fully as much money as before. Indian corn has been held with extreme firmness, at 325. 6d. to 33a. per qr.. and a few carve,' of Odessa and tights hays changed hands at the rata named. FOREIGN. The reports from the Baltic are of a mon subdued charac ter, sti'l then appears to have been no giving way in prices. The account, relative to the probable result of the harvest are, on the whole, of an unsatisfactory character. The weather had been unsettled, and a considerable quantity of the grain carried had been carted in indifferent order. The latest advice, from Danzig (sth inst.) inform us that, though the demand had not been quite so active as before, holders had continued exceedingly firm, and the prices asked for fine qualities had been even higher than those previously demanded. About 900 qrs. of tine high mixed, weighing 62 lbs. to 63 lbs. per bushel, had been sold the preceding Saturday, at 609. per qr., free on board. Vessels were scarce, and freight to London had risen to 61. and 6s. 3d. per qr. At Konigsberg, on Monday last, there was not much doing in wheat, owing to the high pretensions of holden and the scarcity of ships. Mixed, of fsir quality, had realised equal to 505. 3d. per qr., free on board. Barley had been inquired for. Small, weighing only 48Ibs. per bushel, bad realised 2.55., and for large, of 55 lbs. weight, 28s. 6d. per qr., free on board, had been paid. Charters had been closed at 7s. 9d. per qr. for wheat to HAM, and 7s. per qr. to Antwerp. Stettin letters of Tuesday's date inform us that the in quiry for wheat had slackened, and that the extreme rates of the previous week had barely been maintaired ; 6111 n. to 621bs. red was quoted 525., and 621 be. white 545. per qr. free on board. Rostock accounts of the 6th inst. state that harvest ope rations had not proceeded very favourably, owing to the frequent interruptions caused by the unsettled state of the weather. Holders of wheat there appnar to be very san guine, and no anxiety had been manifested to realise, except at high prices. For a parcel of really fine quality, equal to 68s. per qr., free on board, had actually been paid. Rye had been in lively request, and equal to 461. per qr. had been realised for the article. The reports Hamburg, of Tuesday last, are of a much more subdued tone than pr^vious advicvs from thence, the cessation of the French demand baying had a depressing effect. Sellers had, however, refused to lower their pretensions, and quotations were considered to be nominally the same as on the previous post day. Barley had met with a moderate share of attention, and for Danish, of 63lbs. weight, 281. to 28s. 3d. per qr., free on board, had been paid. From Holland, the accounts are of much the tams cha racter u before. In France, the regular course of business has, no doubt, been interfered with by the steps taken lately by the go vernment forbidding a rise in the price of bread. The first effect of this was a tall in prices of wheat and flour in the Paris market, but on Wednesday there were already signs of restored confidence, and there was decidedly less anxiety to sell. The advice. from the Mediterranean markets are not of so animated a character as of late; the probability that large arrivals from the Black Sea might be attracted by the very high prices, had caused some uneasi ness to be felt by holders, who had, consequently, 'hewn more disposition to realise. At Odessa and Galata a large business seem , ' to have been done in wheat, for shipment t. France and Italy. Only a very small part of the purchases bad been oa English ac count; and out of the 127 vessels despatched from thence strain laden, from July 29 to August 26, only 9 had been for England. From the United States we continue to receive favourable accounts in regard to the crops and the probable result of the harvest. The exciting advices from Europe appear to have less influence on the markets than usual, and good brands of flour might have been bought at New York on the 27th ult., at 6f. 121.. to 6f. 18jc. per barrel. GOLD DIGGINGS IN CANADA. It is only necessary for the sceptic to take a dine to the Chandlers gold diggings, to be convinced that the soil of the river and its tributaries is not only of an aurife rious character, but contains 'he precious dust in abundant and paying quantities. We have just returned from the diggings—we have dug, washed, and rocked—we have seen the miners, after having dammed the river, blast the rock— we have seen " Loag Tom" at work—we have beheld the auriferious sand and the shining gold, in scales and lumps, turned out from the gravel and veins of quartz in the crane verse ledge of rocks, immediately above the first falls of the River des Plantes, a tributary of the Chaudiere, only some 45 miles distant from point Levi—and we leave wen a section of the country, which from its general appearance indicates the presence of gold in much greater abundance than is generally supposed. How, under such circumstances, the inhabitants can re main at home on their most miserably cultivated farms we know not. It is as certain as that the sun rises at night that gold in quantities as great as in either California or Australia: is obtainable for the digging, and had any more intelligent people been aware of the existence of gold to such an extent as it does exist, Canada, as far as the increase of population is concerned, would nave been on a par with California or Australia. This may unhesitatingly be said, for in the very spot where eight min are now em ployed by the gold-digging company, gold of the value of 461. currency has been paid over as .having been taken in one day, and lumps of different sizes and of considerable values—one ingot of the value of 501.—have repeatedly been obtained from the gold-bearing quarts at different times. At the river des Plantes,: a mountain torrent which joins the Chaudiere about a mile above Galway's tavern, the com pany have constructed a dam, to which there is at one end • dalleau carrying the water of the river over the first falls, and leaving for a short distance the previous bed of the river comparatively dry. The present operations are not, however, conducted in the bed of the river Ides Plantes, but on the right bank of that stream which, before the company commenced, was covered with trees. The superstratum of red gravel has been taken if, and the detritus of shingle, the serpentine, and slaty rocks are ex posed, though the shelf has not yet been reached. This shingle is washed by wheelbarrow fulls in what is called • " Long Tom," a kind of spout, having wooden sides and an Iron bottom, with an iron drainer or sieve at the end, elevated to a degree sufficient to prevent anything but water passing oil. Under the sieve of this washing appa -1 ratus, which is connected with the dalleau by means of a common wooden spout, there is a wooden trough into which the flakes, ingots., and particles of gold fall, while the cleanly-washed stones are shovelled off the iron drainer by one of the miners. The " Long Tom" is the ordinary working apparatus. Those who go prospecting are fa voured with a tin bake-pan into which they place a shingle, covered with ferruginous clay, for the purpose o f washing it by hand. In our presence a piece of rock was tumbled over with the aid of a crow bar, and in the chink, which was packed with the yellowish ferruginous clay, several heavy pieces were picked out by hand, one piece worth about 15e. ; and two pansful being scraped up and washed, about 15 dwts. of the pre cious metal were obtained. The thirst for gold being now s t r o n g upon us, we procured a pan and scraped and dug among the shingle, spooning out the yellow clay. One washing produced 17 grains, a second 10, a third 29, a fourth 11, and a fifth 2. We stopped for dinner, and after wards set off for the Touffe des Pins, and at Bolduc* re ceived the information that several ingots had been picked op that morning, but that, on account of the height of the river, caused by the rains, it was impossible to go ea with the washing. We returned to the river des Plantes, and watched the emptying and washing in a pea of the contents of the trough. there was about 12 doll. worth of gold; and this, considering that the morning had been lost in consequence of a dehoulli, was considered a fair day's work : and, an truth, we think it was, for " A Voice from the Diggings" of California, spe..king through the instru mentality of Blucktrood's Map:in , to the world, says : Unremitting labour from sunrise to sunset was necessary, our very existence depended on the day's produce. In deed but fur the excitement and the hope of great gain, gold.digging might he pronourceil the severest and most monotour us of all labour. We change our digging occa sionally, but we generally obtain sufficient gold dust to procure us the necessaries of life. Twenty-five dollars worth was the most w e ever secured in a day, and that only on one occasion ; from fifteen t s eighteen dollars seemed to he the usual average of daily fiading, not only with us, but with many others, end our station seemed to be considered as prolific as any other." Now at the river des Plantes, where eight men only are employed and paid high wages, to keep them as honest as possible, 45/. worth of gold has been obtained in one day; and we, a haphas .rd visitor, saw nearly 41. obtained or. Wednesday last. It is these facts, togcth'r with the California and Australia-like appearance of Dorchester County, which led us, as far as we are personally concerned, to the honest, and certainly most disinterested conclusion, that Canada is as rich in gold as either of the two great Ophirs of these auriferous times.

ARISTOCRATIC VISITORs TO AUsTRALIA.—Amonget the recent fashionable arrivals by whose presence Australia has been honoured, we may mention the name of Lord Henry Scott, son of the Duke of Buccleucf, and Lord Schomberg Kerr, son of the Marquis of Lothian, with their chaplain, the Rev. Hugh Stobart, and travelling companion, the Rev. Thomas Bowles. These young nobleme n st a y e d about ten days in Bethune, which they spent partly in social intercourse, and partly in visiting th e f ew s i g ht s worth seeing. A mong other places they have inspected the Summerhill Copper Mine, and then started fur the Turon, whence they purpose proceeding to Newcastle ' and afterwards to Morton Bay, with the i n t en ti on o f s p en ding the winter at the latter place. A visit from gentlemen of their rank and station is an improved sign of the times, and if undertaken with the practical purpose of making them selves acquainted with the wants, necessities, and natural advantages of the country, may ultimately be productive of good. A little more time devoted to travelling in the colueies and dependencies of the British crown, by those who are one day to become legislators of the empire, would tend to mitigate the evils arising out of an ignorance of their actual position, and would often prevent the blunders in govern ment which have first planted the seeds of diaffection, and afterwards ripened them into rebellion.—Australian and New Zealand Gazelle.
