He furnished au office in Riches-court, Lime. street, when he carried on business as a shipping agent ander the name of Thompson Brotters, and in consequence of oil:era and advertisements he issued,a number of persons appiied to him during the months of August and Septem ber last for berths on board a vessel called the South See, which was to sail from Liverpool for Port Philip about that time, sr .d he obtained from • great number of them the amount eftheir passage money, giving a document in the share of a contract or certificate requiring Messrs. Baines and Co. to provide them with berths on board the vessel in question. The poor people accordingly went to Liverpool, but when they arrived the agency of the prisoner was altogether repudiated by Mr. Seines, and the result was that they lost the whole of the money they had paid fur their passage. Some of the parties who had been defrauded subsequently applied to the Lord Mayor, who imme.l.itely instigated au inquiry, and the magistrates of the City of London, after hearing the evidence, felt it their tuty to remit the case for inquiry in this court, the only object they had in view of course being that if a fraud such as the one suggested had really been com mitted, the penes committing it should be punished, as a means of protecting poor persons like these from being defrauded in (stare in • similar manner. The following witnesses were then examined: John Tuckey deposed that he was it dairyman, and in August last he disposed of all his property with the inten lion to emigrate to Australia ; and in consequence of an advertisement he saw in the newspapers, he went to the °thee of the prisoner, in Riches -court, Lime-street. He saw • clerk ; and oilier some conversation with him, he paid 151. in two sums, and when he had paid the whole amount he received a certificate to that effect from the clerk, authorising him to. have a steerage berth in the South Sea, a ship that wa s to sail from Liverpool. He afterwards received a letter from the office of the prisoner, which informed him that he must be at Liverpool by the end of September, and he according.y went there on the 29th, but on presenting his certificate at the office of Mesas. Betties, who were the agents for the South Sea, they stated that the prisoner hail no authority to act as he had done, and he e iuld not obtain abe.th,and was compelled to return to London. He then called again at the office, and saw the prisoner, and told him that he had no right to act as the agent of Messrs. Babies, and demanded his money back, and the prisoner offered to give him half the passage money he had paid. This lie refused to accept, and he had never since got any of his money back. By Serjeant Wilkins (retained with Mr. Robinson for the defence)—Messrs. Baines and Co. did not offer to from the him with a ship. He the prisoner on account of the delay in the sailing of the vessel. Re-examined—Morn. Baines said that the prisoner was no agent their's, and had nothing more to do with the South Sea than any other broker, but that if he had sent down the passage money he had taken from the different parties they would have all been piovided with berths. Charles Howse, another witness, gave evidence to a simi lar e ff ect. He h ad paid the prisoner 221. 10s. Three other persons who had paid lot. each, were also examined, and in another case it appeared that43l. 16s. had been paid. Gowen Blamer deposed that he was formerly clerk to the prisoner, and be remembered Tuckey and the other persons who had been summoned as witnesses applying fur passages to Au-tralia, and he received the money and gave them the certificates and contract papers by the authority of the pri mmer. Every thing was done in what he considered to be the ordinary course of business. The firm was carried on in the name of Thompson, Bruthen, but he never saw any brother of the prisoner. An inquiry took place at the Mansion-house, and witness was at first charged with haling participated in the alleged fraud, but he was di.- charged upon it appearing that he was meiely clerk to the prisoner. After this inquiry the prisoner went away, and was la ludic; daring October and November, but witness UM to see ham occasionally by appointment, nd upon one amiss he told kin that warrants had been issued against Ma be Nina= bo the Beath Sea tonmetions, and the pri , /ease said he *pod he tbW lso aWe to settle it.

The anangement was to the effect, that witness was to receive a certain sum for each steerage at other peseriager, and the prisoner was to make as marl more as he could ; but he had no authority to give any order for the massagers to embark until he banded over the passage money. He remembered the people coming down to Liverpool to go by the South &a, and he refused to receive them, because the prisoner had neither sent their names or description, or their passage. money. There was plenty of room for them in the vessel at the time if then conditions had been fulfilled. By Mr. Serjeant was con nected with their firm, and it was very likely that the prisoner paid him in August Ave or six hundred pounds on their amount. It was very poeible that the prisoner during the last year had paid them money to the amount of three thousand pounds for passengers he had engaged to go by their ships. The Recorder hen Interposed, and said that, although there WAS DO doubt that this was a very proper, important, and valuable investigation, yet he put it to the learned counsel for the prosecution whether, after the evidence of the two lust witnesses, ha thought it likely that the jury would convict the prisoner upon the indictment now before the court. The question was not whether the prisoner had improperly taken the money and afterwards recklessly "'p lied it to his own purposes, but whether he had got glen of the money by making a false representation tha t t is h; had authority to engage berths on board the limed in question. Mr. Bodkin said it appeared to him that it was a ques tion for the jury whether the prisoner must not have been aware that he did not possess the authority which he pre tended to exercise, of giving an absolute authority to em bark to the persons who paid him the money. The Recorder said he thought that, although the prisoner might have acted fraudulently and Improperly, yet, after the evidence that had heen given, he considered that the jar, would hardly come to the opinion that he did not fancy be had authority to act as agent for Messrs. Baines. There was plenty of room on board the vessel at the time the people went to Liverpool, and if the prisoaer had trans mitted the amount of their passage money berths would have been provided for them. The jury said they were of opinion that the primer con sidered he was acting under some sort of authority front Mr. Baines. Mr. Bodkin said that after the intimation that had been gives by the jury, and appearing only as he did for a public body upon public grounds, and with no other object than to vindicate the law, he felt that he ought to withdraw frees offering any further evidence. The inquiry that had talus* place, however, would doubtless be useful to emigrants as a warning to be cautious who they dealt with. Srrjeant Wilkins said he was requested to state on behalf of the prisoner that if it bad not been for the public inquiry that took place, he should have been able to meet all his engagements. When he heard, however, that warrants had been issued against him, he became frightened, and this, coupled with the large sums he had previously paid to the passengers as detention money, destroyed his prospects altogether, and prevented him from fulfilling his intention. The Recorder said he did not think this way any seems,. PerYouy yhould not enter into such transactions unless they were possessed of sufficient means to carry them out in • respectable and honourable manner. The jury then returned a verdict of ..Voi Guilty, and the prisoner was discharged from custody. NEW COURT-.-YESTERDAT. BLOIS TIM COMO:. BWUNT. The principal portion of the day the court was occupied in disposing of the Mint cases, which were wholly devoid of public interest. Chas. Mitchell, 25, labourer, was indicted for highway robbery on Thomas Bennett, and stealing from him one half-crown. The proaecutor, a wine cooper, dated that on the morn , inn of the 29th of last month be was coming along St. Giles r, near the church, when he saw the prisoner and two other men standing by the railings. lie mowed iato the road to:avoid them, when prisoner came up and struck him a violent blow on the heed, seised him by the throat, and tried to strangle him ; the other men then Tilled his pockets and broke his watch.guard ; but, an alarm being given by , a lady who was with him, he dragged prosecutor down and then ran away. Shortly afterwards the plies brought prisoner beck, and he identified him, as also did the young lady who was with him. Payne, a police constable, said that hearing the cry he ten down Denmark -street, that being pointed out to him as the way prisoner had gone, and turning up a court came upon the prisoner who was out of breath. The jury found the priioner The Cuiamon Serjeaut asked if he was known. The police said he had been in pr;son for assaults. Prisoner—Only for eight days ; that was when I was one of the City Militia. The Common Serjeant said his offence was one of a very bad character, and sentenced him to seven years transporta tion. Prisoner—Can't you make it ten ? Common Serjeant—Ten if you like. MIDDLESEX SESSlONS.—Yraniumi. BOO= Ma. taiumor ADAM. Aswan= AMOR. John Hooper, 22, and Jane l'reseote, 23, were indicted— ' the former for stealing a quantity of silk, silk handker chiefs, and other articles, value 121., the property of Ed ward Lloyd, his master ; and the latter for feloniously receiving the same.—Hooper pleaded guilty. Frum the evidence given it appeared that the prisoner Hooper was an assistant in the employ of the prosecutor, • linendraper, 74, High -street, Shoreditch, who, from sus picion of Hooper's honesty, communicated with the police, and in consequence • watoh was kept upon him, and on the evening of the 7th of December he was followed by the prosecutor and a constable of the name of Evans to No. 22, genet-plue, Houton, where he lived with the other prisoner, his sister. The male prisoner was searched, and on him they found two lengths of silk, twenty.nine silk handkerchiefs, and ten pieces of ribbon, and he was taken into custody. Shortly afterwards the female prisoner en. tered, and the constable told her he must search the room. This was done, and in a box, which was locked, and which she gave him the key to open, was found some property, comprising silk, velvet, handkerchiefs, and ribbon, which the prosecutor identified as his. The constable then took her into custody ; but before he removed her from the room she went to a washhand stand, and washed her hands. After they were locked up at the police station, the °Meer went back and examined the washhand basis and in it he found a duplicate relating to some velvet, which she had pawned at Mr. Stoker's, Eut road, Houton, and which the prosecutor believed to be his property. In a carpet bag belonging to the male primmer was found the sum of 7L los. in gold. Mr. Sleigh said the male prisoner had pleaded guilty to the charge against him under his advice, but he hoped he should be able to satisfy the minds of the jurors that the ease, as regarded the female prisoner, was very different. She was, as he was instructed, a respectable married I woman, sister to the other prisoner, and that accounted for the circumstance of their living in the same house, and the defence which he believed be should substantiate was this:—lt was true that the property in question belonged to the prosecutor, and that it was found in her box, and in her room, but she bad no guilty knowledge of its havii.g been stolen. She had believed, from the representations of her brother, that the property was his, and that be had come by it honestly. To corroborate this he should examine the male prisoner, who had pleaded guilty, as a witness upon oath, and he would tell them (the jury) that the defence set up for his sister was a true one, and he would entirely exonerate ber from the charge of having feloniously re ceived the property. The Assistant-Judge wished t• know it the course the learned counsel proposed to take had ever been permitted ? Mr. Sleigh submitted that as the prisoner Hooper was no longer a party interested in the issue, having pleaded guilty under a recent statute, he was competent to give evidence. ilitTliSaistaat-ludge asked if such a course had ever been allowed ? Mr. Sleigh said it had. Mr. Byerley Thomson observed that he had seen this course pertained by Mr. Justice Creswell. The Asistant•Judge expressed himself perfectly satisfied after that intimatica. The prosecutor asked the Assistant-Judge to refer to the ' deposition of Harriet Hayward, the female searcher at the polies•station. The Assistant-Judge did so, and afterwards called Harriett Hayward, who stated that on the evening when the prisoners were brought in custody to the suttee, she searched the female and lound upon her some pawnbrokers' duplicates, which she begged her to make away with, and said that her brother had robbed his muter of the thins and she pawned them. She thought the prisoner used the word " rob," and not " taken." Mr. Sleigh objected to the reception of this evidence, after the cue for the prosecution had been brought to • close and he had addressed the jury for the defeuce. The Assistant Judge said it must be received, and called I * pawnbroker, who produced some of the articles to which the tickets fo und by the searcher referred. Mr. Sleigh said he should now decline to call the male prisoner as a winter, but should leave the cue in the hands of the jury . without further observation. The Assistant Judge ,said he thought the learned counsel bad exercised a very wise and sound discretion in not call ing the male prisoner as a witness after the evidence that had been given, and then proceeded to sum up the evidence against the female. The jury at ones found her Guilty. ' There was a second indictment of a similar nature, charg ing the male prisoner with stealing some linendrarry goods from Mrs. Lent, at Woolwich, with whom he livid previous to his pies to Mr. Lloyd's, and the female with receiving the property, knowing it to be stolen. They beth pleaded guilty. The Assistant Judge sentenced Hooper to eighteen and Prescott to nine months' hard labour. THE POLICE COURT& GUILDHALL. J. Blosabors, a fair;Sl, whiwasrem ended from Mon day on the charge et uttering a forged cheque for IW., drawn in the same ef By. Stoat* and Co.; on the Royal British Bank, end mirk payable to a Mr. Robinson, with intent to defraud Messrs. Benson, of Ludgate-hid, was finally examined. Mr. Hy. Stem* furniture warehouseman, of 78 and 79, Westasinater-beidge-road, said he kept no account with the Ral British Beek. The prisoner was a stranger to him, sad no part of the cheque produced was in his (Mr. Stoats's) handwriting. The signature was not his, neither had it been written by his authority. The cashier from the Lambeth Branch of the Royal British Bank, stated that the cheque produced had been issued in a book from the hank in question, and from the number on the cheque he was enabled to state that the book from which it had been abstracted was given to "Thos. Oreathead & Co., of Mount-street, Lambeth," who hathin account at the Ro. , British Bank. The cheque wan pre sented by Meson. Bftson's assistant on Monday morning, when the books were searched, and it was ascertained that Mr. Stoats had no account at the bank. Francis Millard, Messrs. Benson's assistant, said that Mr Oresthead told the manager of the bank in his presence that toe cheque was torn out of his book on the morning of Saturday last. The officer produced a betting-book found on the pri soner containing the counterfoil of the forged cheque and a variety of memorandums, showing that the prisoner had been engaged in bettin, and other gambling transactions connected with hone-racing to a great extent. It was urged by Mr. Wood, who appeared for the defence, that the prisoner wee& man of independent property and his friends highly respectable, and he therefore hoped that the worthy adermas would adult him to bail. Alderman limpliary esiesseei lb surprise at such an application, the ease being on. of fragery, and then com mitted the prisoner for trial, refusing bail for his appear ance at the Old Bailey Sessions. BOW-STREET. A well-dressed young man, named Damien Fromottl, de scribed u a French exile, residing with his wife in lodg ings, in Guildford street But, was °barged with having in decently exposed himself, on Saturday afternoon lest, to a lady and several children, in the Mall of St. James's park. The cue, although very clearly proved by the testimony of a respectable tradesman's wife, who reluctantly attended to prosecute, sad partly confirmed by a little girl and • policeman on duty near the spot, occupied nearly the whole of the morning, owing to the anxiety of the magistrate (Mr. Henry) to hear all the prisoner's friends, who were able to speak to his character and habits. The prisoner addressed the court at great length, and with considerable force, in the French language. He stated that he was merely obeying a call of nature, and probably forgot that more privacy was necessary in England than in France. - Mr. Henry remarked that tlie same excuse was always set up in such cues, and, as to character, it bad been his misfortune to see similar charges preferred against many men, and some clergymen even of good moral repute, whom no one could have supposed capable of such indecency. His worship committed him to prison for two months. THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 5, 1853. MARLBOROUGH-STRIGIT. Emanuel Nathan, the proprietor of the Waterloo Coffee house, Jennyn-street, was summoned by the police for keeping a disorderly house. Inspector Whall proved that he visited the defendant's house on Sunday morning a little before one o'clock, and found in the rooms on the tint, second, and ground floors 30 women and about 20 gentlemen. Several of the gentle men appeared to be intoxicated from the noise they made. • Witness called the attention of the defendant to the number of prostitutes in the house, and requested him to clear them out. The reply of the defendant was, he would do so as soon as they had done their refreshment. Witness told him he should see if he did so, and then left the house. Witness remained outside of the house for more than half en hour, during which time only twelve women and several men left the house. Several males and females applied for admission during that time, but were refused. Witness went again into the house, and found about twenty females still in the house. He told the defendant he had not kept his word as to clearing his house. The women were pros titutes. • The women were c , nducting themselves decently. Mr. Lewis, for the defendant, contended that the law in tended to apply only to disorderly prostitutes. Mr. Hardwick said the Act of Parliament made no dis %Meilen between orderly and disorderly prostitutes. He must take the case as proved, and therefore would inflict a am of 31. and costs. LAMBETH. James Rokal, a petson of respectable appearance, was charged with missing a forged note for 51. on Mr. Thomas Runt, the landlord of the Bird in Band public-house, is Garden-row, Southwark. Mr. Haut, the prosecutor, deposed that on Christmas-eve the prisoner, who was a customer of hie, was.at his house, Asked ehnn4e for a M. note, and handed him that now pro duced. Knowing the man before, and believing the note to he genuine, he at once changed it for him. He subse quently paid it away to his brewer, and on that (yester day) morning it was returned to him stamped •• forged." He sent to the prisoner about the note, and he in the tirst instance said he would settle it, but subsequently declared he should have nothing to do with it, and be in conse quence gave him into custody. Mr. William Podee, a publican out of business, said be was assisting his brother in-law, the last witness, on Chrbt taas-eve and was present when the prisoner changed the note pr oduced, and he saw Mr. Hunt write his own and the prisoner's name on it. The prisoner said that he had changed the note for a person who was a stranger to him, in front of Ben Omura bar in Bt. Mattin'telane, and wit ness at the time remarked that it was a very foolish act on his part to change a note for a stranger. The prisoner, in reply to the charge, said that he had changed several notes in the Christmas week, but being no scholar, he could not say who he changed the note iu ques tion for. In reply to a question put by Mr. Puttee Ili to who the two men were who were with him at the time he changed the note, he declared that he was not in the com pany of any one. Mr. Podee declared the contrary, and the prisoner was remanded for a week. 411Miwi WANDSWORTH. Charlotte Freensahtle, an inmate of the Wandsworth and Clapham Union, was charged with being drunk and riutuus. Charles Heim', the porter at the union, stated that on the over night he was! suddenly sent for to quell a dis turbance in the women's ward, and found Frremantle drunk, as usual, and assaulting Mrs. Challoner. Mr. Beadon asked how it was the women could get drunk in the union ; and the porter replied by purchasing the beer of the old women. The magistrate committed the defendant for 14 days' hard labour. INDIGO. The following is extracted from the circular of Messrs. H. W. Jewesbury and Co.::—" During the past month the transactions in the Foreign and Colonial Produce Markets were more active than those of the pre vious one; fluctuations in price have not been cotoiderables but the markets closed firm, and with an upward tendency. The importations have been very large, amongst which may be noticed the Harbinger, screw ship, which left Cal cutta on the 15th of October last, and arrived at Plymouth, eia the Cape of Good Hope, on the 24th ult., bringing the mails and also a large quantity of goods, thus opening • new era in the transport of produce between India and Bagland. The deliveries, both for export and home use, show a large increase for nearly all articles as compared with previous years, showing the improved condition of all classes, but more particularly that of our working popula tion, whose wages and consequent powers of consumption have been materially increased. Dyes and dyeing materials have been in fair demand during the past month, and seve ral of the leading articles have advanced in value, of which may be noticed indigo, cochineal, and the finer qualities of saMower. At the comme. cement of the past year our markets opened extremely flat, sad prices, which were then very low, were looking still further downwards; there was a slight improvement towards the end of February, which continued with slight fluctuations until after the bank re duced their rate of discount, on the 22nd of April, from 21 to 2 per cent., which gave an impetus to trade; and wry large transactions took place in the month of May at im proved prices, but the following months of June and July were again marked by inactivity, which was rather im proved upon; in August and in September a large business was done at higher rates; this continued during October, but again fell off in November, without, however, altering quotations, and was succeeded in December by rather more activity at firmer rates. Reviewing the transactions of the pest year, there has been undoubtedly a large business done, particularly sines the month of April, when rates began to improve; and the general position of the esarkets, toge ther with concurrent circumstances, leads to the general feeling that the year now entered upon promises to be one of much greater importance to the mercantile community than the last. The late accounts from India continue hivourable fee imports, which has caused increased inquiry in our manufacturing districts fur goods suitable for that market. In the woollen districts there is a full average business for the season of the year at firm prices, and the stocks continue light. There has been more inquiry for this article during the past fortnight, consequent upon intelli gence from Calcutta that the new crop was weighing out lighter than was expected, this caused several parcels to change hands at full rates, others were for the present withdrawn from the market, whilst for small orders 2d. to 3d. per lb. advance is required, which advance is fully expected to be maintained it not further increased at the approaching sales of February next, and this feeling is str en gthened by the fact of the deliveries being solargely in 'eons of previous yawl, both for export and home use. Reviewing the position of this article during the past year, we find that Bengal qualities are Is. to ls. 3d. per lb. higher, Madras 10d. to Is. per lb. higher, and Kurpah Is. to is. 2d. per lb. higher in value than at this time last year. Thelquantity advertised at the four quarterly sales was 83,274 chests, of which 32,600 were sold, 20,000 being for export, and 12,600 for home use and re-sale. The quantity brought forward the previous year was 61,573 chests, of which 21,800 were sold. The importations into this port for the year 1862 were 33,052 chests, against 32,378 in 1851. The deliveries were 34,002 chests, against 29,251, and the stock is now 29,278, against 30,332 last year. The stock of Spanish indigo is now 1,369 moons, against 403 last year. By advice from Calcutta we learn that parcels of the new crop have begun to arrive, and the first sale, consisting of 27 chests F and 8 Ciudgked, Joann sold at 160 rupees per maund, which is an advance a4O rupees upon the same mark last season, the quality k however, spoken of as being superior to that of last year, but the parcel is considered to be well sold. The indigo shipping season of 1851-52 closed on the 30th of October last ; the total 'epode were 35,630 chests, of which 23,379 were to Great Britain; the exports from the Ist to the 20th of No vember were, to Great Britain, 88 chaste, to France, 8, and to North America, 85. Total, 169 chests." COTTON.—Livitneool., JAY. 4.—The market closed tamely, but firmly, with no change on Friday's quotations. There appears to be some cheerfulness diffused among holders of cotton by the news by the Niagara —on what ground it is difficult to say ; but there undoubtedly is a more confident tone. The sales are estimated at 5,000 bales, inclusive of I,eoo American taken on speculation. The sales comprise 4,000 American ; 260 Permits and Maranhao, at 61d. to 71d. ; 20 Bahia, at 61d. ; 700 Surat, at n d. 44d. MANCHUT/LIA, JAN. 4.—There has been an active do =and for India yarns, and also for those suitable to the Mediterranean markets, and fell rates have been given with something more of freedom than of late. Cop yarns far home manufacturers have also been in more regent, at better rates, but the chief demand is for medium and higher counts. Skirtings and other cloths suitable to the India markets are In brisk demand at full rates, and some of the houses in the trade have their hands full for some weeks to come. There is no improvement so far as the trade with Germany is concerned. The slight hardening of prices is pertly attributable to an improved demand and pally to the better accounts of the cotton markets of the United States, as advised by the Niagara steamer—prices of the raw material both at New York and New Orleans being rather higher. WOOL.—HUDDERBFIELD, Jen. 4.—The Wool trade is now getting more brisk, and manufacturers generally hay ing become reconciled to the present high rates, larger quantities are now moved off with much lees difficulty. MANUFACTUREB.—HUDDERBFIBLD, Jan. 4.—There has been a good attendance of buyers in the Cloth Hall to day, and they have bought rather extensively in low and middle qualities of thick, heavy, seasonable goods, while a moderate business has been doing in the finer descriptions. The opinion of oar ►eading merchants here is that we shall have a good spring trade, and the opening of the year seems to confirm it. Sr. PITZESBIIRO, Ditc. 25. London letters of the 16th instant received. Corn with out transactions. Wheat and oats very firm. Rye slack, Deals : Nothing done. A minor dealer asks bi ro. cash, for July to September delivery. Flu : No business ap pears to have been done, the dealers refusing to fir a price on the ground of not haring closed their purchases in the interior. Hemp : A few purchases have been making at the former rates. It is now quiet, with sellers at the quota tions. The price of the purchases for delivery per rail, mentioned in our last, is understood to be 944 ro., cash on delivery.

CORN.-HULL, Jan. 4.-Trade very quiet, all parties seeming desirous to narrow their transactions, as is not un usual at this period of the year. We had a good supply of Wheat from the farmers to-day, the condition of which was tolerable, and met a fair sale at le. below the rates of last week. A little more inquiry for foreign, without much business resulting. Only a consumptive liminess passing in spring corn, but prices are full and firm. Linseed very firm, if not dearer; but the mild weather operates againt Cakes, which may be bought the tun easier. No Rape seed on the market; Rape ,Cakes fetch our quotations.

LIED., Jan. 4.-Ws are fairly supplied with Wheat, the trade is remarkably firm, and the extreme rates of Friday are obtained on all descriptions. Fine Barley rather im- ; proves in value, other :ions as before. Oats and Beans steady in price, other article. unaltered. Ltvzirtmar., JAN. 4.—Withltv the last ten days the B ' h coast has been visited by weeral successive gvles of wind, the severity of which rarely o ccurs, and the de struction t / life and property, by sea and Mud, must have Leen vast. This remarkable change, following a sequence off several months of excessively wet weather, by which the United Kingdom, at almost every point, was inundated, may possibly lead to beneficial results; by raising the gene ral health, and, at same time, prove propitious to the farmer by purifying the surface of his land, and enable him to make up largely of his sneers of field labour. The weather is now mild and open, and we also lesru by late accounts of an unusually open season in the United States, Black and Baltic Seas, sad on the continent. Little value is to be placed upon an opinion of the most experienced as to the future of the corn trade at any time. The whole world is open to supply and anticipate our wants, and circumstances frequently occur to baffle the closest of calculations as to supply and demand. The latest cry is not a scarcity of breadstuffs in either the United States or European rates, but a scarcity of freight, which at present is otherwise well employed. It has been estimated that the stocks at present held in Liverpool will nearly approximate to about 200,000 qrs. wheat, about 130,000 barrels and 20,000 sacks flour, about 30,000 qrs. Indian corn, about 2.1,000 qrs. of oats, and about 120,000 loads of oatmeal. Of barley, beans, and peas, the quantities held here are limited. Altogether, this port has now fully as much in stock as eke has been accustomed to hold for several past years at same period. The business passing during the week has been moderate, and prices have but slightly varied. There was a slender attendance of millers and dealers at our Corn Exchange this morning. The sales of wheat and flour were moderately fair, at a reduction from this day se'nnight of Id. per bushel on wheat (in an instance or twc, to quit some Cana dian, ex ship, a decline of 2d. to 3d. per bushel was sub. witted to), and 6d per barrel and sack on flour. Oats and oatmeal were each rather easier to purchase. No change in the value of any other article. On tho whole the busi ness of the day was rather in: favour of buyers. - LYNN, Jan. 4.-We had a good supply of Wheat at mar ket to day, and although the condition is still so bad, yet it was taken at last week's prices. The supply of Barley was small for the time of year, it was free sale, best descrip tions rather dearer, and all other sorts at fully last week's prices. Wheat, old, red, 621bs. to 631b5., 495. to 50s. per quarter to the gr4wer; new, 56lbs. to 591b5., 435. to 451.; ditto, 55Ibs. to 581b5., 38s. to 425. Aye, 265. to 281. Bar ley, selected fine, 521bs. to 531 N., 295. to 31s. ; selected best runs, 51Ibs. to nibs., 265.t0 285.; stained and much sprouted, 501bs. to 511bs , 245. to 255. Oats, new, 9d. to 10d. per st. Beans, old, 651bs. to 661b5., 375. to 38s. ; new, 621 as. to 641b5., 30s. to 325. Peas, feeding, 245. to 28s. Flour, fine, per sack of 2801b5., 40s. Nuwcsortm, Jan. 4.-The weather still continues un settled, boisterous winds with heavy rain, being its pre dominating features, in fact there never was remembered a season where such uncertainty prevailed ; oae day forming no criterion what the neat may bring forth. At our mar ket this morning we had a moderate show of Wheat from the growers; but from the coast the arrivals are liberal, and chiefly of ordinary quality. Fine dry fresh thrashed samples, which were comparatively scarce, sold quickly at rather over Saturday's rates, whereas at the same time a fair business was done in South Country qualities, new, thin Wisbech, weighing 661b5., and general runs of 5811b5., making 48s. to Ms. per quarter respectively, weighed 631bs. For a parcel of fine old red Norfolk Wheat rather a long price was procured, but the exact figure did not transpire, but certanly not under 53a., 631b5., was taken. With Flour we have been largely supplied, consisting of f.o.b. sales made sonic time kick. Our dealers, therefore, pause for the present in making purchases, wishing to see what course the holders adopt previous to operating. We cannot, however, see the propriety of yielding in the least just now, still some holders may be induced to give way rather than land. In Aye little stirring. Malting Barley is held firmly, but the amount of business passing was limited. Grinding without change. Malt less pressingly offered. Beans and Feu much as before, and the same may be said of Oats. CATTLE.-Runarn, Jan. 4.-The Beef trade ruled steady, at last week's rates, the general top figure being 4s. per stone for the best Os Beef. We were well supplied with Sheep, mostly Down wethers, which sold freely, at 2d. per stone over last week's prices. The supply of fat Calves was extensive ; they sold freely, prime small making 4s. to 4s. 4d. ; large coarse ditto, 3s. 2d. to 3s. 6d. per stone of Blbs. Small porkers in good demand, at 4s. to 4s. 2d. Store Pigs hung heavily on hand. but prices are no lower. Small Calves, 17s. to 22.. each. Owing to the weather, the lean stock market was badly supplied. Of those offered all were sold, prices of all aorta having an upward tendency. SALISBURY, Jan. 4.-This being our first cattle market sines our Christmas cattle show, the supply to-day was somewhat extensive, most of whic h was of prime quality. The attendance of buyers was numerous, but in consequence of the great quantity of rain which fell this morning the businesa was somewhat retarded. The demand, however, for the best description of Beasts was tolerably quick, and nearly all on offer changed hands, but with regard to the inferior quality the trade was sluggish, and many remained unsold. Prices ranged about the same as at the last market. The supply of Sheep was rather limited, barely sufficient for the demand, consequently the late high prices were without difficulty sustained tor the best Down wetber Mutton, and, we hear, with every pros pect of a further rise. In other descriptions there was also no variation of prices. In the Pig market the supply was moderately good, and a fair amount of business done, and the late value of Pigs were well sustained. Best Os Beet, 10s. per score; seeond-rate, 9s. 6d.; cow and heifer, 7s. to 81. Best Down Mutton, 61d. to 7d. per lb.; inferior sorts, sld. to 6d. Veal, 61d. to 6d. Pork, did. to 6d. Carcass Veal, Bs. to 9s. per score ; Pork, 75. 6d. to 81. Bacon, 71. 3d. to 7s. 9d. ; green, per lb., 7d. to 7id. ; dry, Bd. Store Pigs, 16e. to 2.%. each. Avow Me LONDON OAZRTTB.—Tuesday, ✓an. 4.
