The constable was recalled, and proved that, however un acquainted with the art, he practised it with great determina tion last night. The other defendants, in general terms, denied the offence.

The question to be decided was whether a Iced of coals was Pablo to two toll+ on pausing through two gates upon the same Truer. The carman in question paid the toll at Barre court bar, and wag to Pimlico, but did not deliver the coals, and, +monad of returning the some way, he panted through Kensington-gate, to avoid the to'l at Rarre-court. The de fendant took the toll again at Kensington-gate, and it wen contended on the part of Mr. Martin, The appeared for Fawcett, that the collector, under the 30th section of the set, could demand toll every time a load of coals passed through any gate upon the Trust. Mr. Daymms now decided that the same load of coal, could pees through all the gates upon the Trust for one toll. It would not be consistent if it were otherwise, for if a waggon passed through a gate empty and paid toll, it wee free to return with a load without paying a further toll. He agreed , with )Ir. Martin that the defendant wee not to blame for taking the toll, teeing that the words of the 30th section bore oat the construction which he (the defendant) had put upon It.

A little man confidence is apparent this morning, but bud. veer is very slack. In wool, there has been more inquiry by partite who an inclined to speculate as soon as wool hie resulted the lowest point. The transactions, however, sr• very limited. Business remains lifeless; and where saes an effected, it is only by the ace eptence of uneatiefectmy prices. In boils and broke then is little more inquiry for export. In worsted yarns then Is no business doing, either by home or foreign houses. There was never a time, par. haps, in which more caution wee manifested. There e • general feeling of hope, however, that when the Beak cd England lowere its rate of discount we 'hall experience • better state of things. Then is very little inquiry foe cotton yarns, and there ui a large number of looms standing, and others only partially esopyed. In pieces many of the home houses have during the week placed contracts ieft spring delivery at very low prime.
