The evidenee went to show that on the MA, 28th, and l <9th of December la-t a lad named Phillip% the sot. of the phintilf. went to the itotunds, and, having paid two-pence for admission, he took a seat in a place fitted up like a thea tre, and where dancing, and singing, and a pantomime were performed upon a regular stage. The usual prices of ad mission were a penny to the gallery, two-pence to the pit, and threepenee to the bones, but this being Christmas time the price of admission to the gallery was raised to two pence. The audience were aunt!, boys and girls, some of them of disreputable character, and it appeared that there were three " houses " every night, and that four or five hundred persons were present at scary performance. The defendant was proved to be present, and that he acted as the proprietor of the establishment, and received the mossy that was taken at the doors. Mr. Joyce, on b. half of the defendant, did not attempt any answer to the facts, but submitted that the evidence was insufficient to flu hint with being the person legally responsible for what was going on in the place, and he urged that the proceeding being of • penal character the jury ought to insist upon having clear and positive testimony before they found a verdict against the defendant.

'times COMULKOL CHAILOR OF CHILD MVILDILIL Ilia Lordship, on handing the depositions to oar of the learned counsel to enable him to conduct a prosecution in • tale of a axioms charaver, took occasion to observe upon the ine invesienee that was created by counsel not being in structed to prosecute in such cases. If the object was merely. he said, ti save a few pounds, he mast say that he considered such • motive totally inadequate and unjustitl able. True economy was • thing that ought always to be regarded, but in so important • matter as the administration of criminal justie.., where the life of a fellow-creature was (maxi', at stake, the saving of • little money ought not for • moment to be catroidered. The learned judge added that if the neglect to employ counsel really proceeded from this cause, he must say that it was most disgraceful, and he hoped it would not be the case in future. Mary Anne Temple, 38, was indicted for the wilful mur der of her female illegitimate child b 7 suffocating it. The circumstances under which this charge was preferred against the prisoner lay in a very narrow compass. It appeared that she had had two other children besides the one in viatica, and that at the time the occurrence took place she was in the service of a respectable family at Chertery. It would seem that she was delivered of this child on the morning of the 7th of March, and • very short time afterwards the prisoner went to the house of • woman named Humphreys, who lives at Chertsey, and she pro duced the infant, which was at the time wrapped up in • shawl, and asked her *co take care of it for her for a short time. The woman observing from the appearance of the child that it had evidently only recently oome into the world, was somewhat alarmed, and she rut some questions to the pri soner, who said that the mother of the child had given it to her to take care of. Mrs. Humphreys enquired who the mother was, bat the prisoner refused to tell her, ea she said she had promised not to do so, and Mrs. Humphreys said that under such circumstances she would have aothing to do with the child, and she must take it away. The infant, which at this time appeared to be perfectly healthy and well, was accordingly again wrapped up in the shawl and also in a flannel petticoat, and the prisoner placed it wader her arm and went away with it, and from this OM the infant was never again semi alive. In consequence oissimething that traaspired very shortly afterwards, Mr. liielbstesk the superintendent of the harms cosetabulary Matins& at Uhlman, felt it to be his duty to go to the hum of the prlssases master, where he saw her, and asked her ts Ise him what had become of the child she had labia to Kn. Ilistraphmys, and afterwards carried away swim the eirrandawsne stated. The prisoner told him that she had takes the child to its mother, bat she said she did am know wheys the mother lived, sad she added that she had pima her the child at the chunk, sad she took it ' away with her, mid she knew nothing more about it. Upon hearing th:tialidra. - . lliddleeomb obtained the assistance of a amellealand upon the fact being omertained that the had very recently been delivered of • child, the Miser teak her into custody and placed her is the Christy psi* _statics. He very soon afterwards re ceived further Warmed= which induced him to go to a college, is the of Cbertmy, which had been occupied by the 'a father, but which was at the time empty, aecompashd by • constable named Moore, sad upon making a search they found a hole is the floor which was covered with • bundle of rags, and oa the mutable put ting his band into the hole he pulled out the dead body of an infant. This turned out to bathe same child that bad been taken by the prisoner to the house of Mrs. Humphreys, and the surgeon stated that it was • full grown and appa rently healthy child, and the result of • pat-mortem ex amination clearly showed that death was the result of suf focation. and it was suggested, on the part of the prawn tioa, that when the prisoner took the child away from Mrs. Humphreys she had wilfully suffocated it by pressing it forcibly in her arms while it was enveloped in the shawl and pet:iccat. There was, of course, no direct ',i diom of the feet, bet it was proved that while the pri soner was left in the charge of a woman, the wife of one of the ecostables, at the station house, she' appeared in a very low sad despoadiag state, &adobe asked the woman whether she thought that she should be halm, sad on her replying that she did net know, the prisoner said—" I did it." The woman then asked what she had dose, and she replied—" I euffmated the child, but I must ham been oat of my senses at the time, and the devil tempted me." The prisoner thee went on to state that it was her iatention to have destroyed herself, and she said that she weal bane to her mother's, sad sat up all night, and if her mother sad sisters had not been shoat, she should have jumped est of the window. It also appeared upon searching the peisener's box that she had not provided sloth's or asesmaries of any description for the infant, which she mum have knows she was about to bring into the world. 3d,. I.illey made a most earnest sad forcible address to the jury is behalf of the prisoner; urging upon their attention that the main evidence against her consisted of het own statements, which he said, la her wretched and eaiserable condition, ought not to have fall effect given to them, at all evests to the extent of taking them as admis sions that she was guilty of the crime of wilful murder ; and he submitted the possibility that in her alarm and ex citement at the moment, she had carelessly pressed the child so unto GLOM its death. He likewise urged upon the Jxry the possibility of the child's death having been the result of mere accident, taking into consideration the man ner in which it was packed up, as it were, in the shawl and pettiesst, when it was taken away by the prisoner. The learned Judge summed up the cassia his usual kind and impartial manner. He said that if the jury thought the child was accidentally suffocated by the prisoner, of course she was entitled to as asquittal altogether ; if, how ever, they should think it was not as accidental occurrence, bat that the prisoner, by gram negligence and want of pro per consideration for the frail hake slae woe asaveying, bad caused its death, is that cam it weal M6l amount to the crime of manslaughter. if they should, however, be of opinion that the prisoner had deliberately canoed the death of the child, in that case it would be their duty to find her guilty of the crime of wilful murder. The jetty, after deliberating a short time, found the pri soner Gritty of manslaughter, but recommended her to mercy on account of the condition of mind she was is at the time. The learned Judge, is prides sentence apes the pri sour, said that the jury had taken a most merciful vies, of the ease.

Rana, CMOMPION. Tut CLAYILIDON MIIIDia.—SENTENCII of D/ATH. George Sparks, aged 26, and Jana HileAeock, 40, were indicted for the wilful murder of Mr. William Mecham', on the sth of February, at Clayhidon, in the county of Devon. _ . Deceased was a miller and tax collector, residing at Clay- hides Mills, near the remote village of Clayhidon, which is situated at about five miles from Wellington, in Sonar setahire. The prisoners lived near him, sad were agricul teral labourers of the lowest elan. The younger prisoner, Geo. Sparks, was a single man, and, it was alleged, was betrothed to Hitchcock's daughter. The latter has a wife and family, and was in the habit of jobbing about at diffe rent farms to work. Mr. Blackmore had a wife and one son, and was a man universally respected is the neighbour hood. On the morning of the 6th of February it appears that he left his house to collect certain arrears of tithes. He obtained altogether about twenty pounds, and it seemed that during his peregrinatione, he met the two prisoners with Mr. Honeyball, a farmer, with whom they had been working. Mr. Blackmer. greeted Mr. Hooeyball, and told him that he had just been to his house aad got some money. One of the prisoners beard this; sod re marked to Mr. Honeyball that Mr. Blackmer. "collected a good deal of money; more he should think then anybody in the parish." They passed on ; sad the primmer., after baring been paid some small sums of money from Mr. Honeyball, west to the White Horse lan, a beerahop on the road. On his way home Mr. Blackmon would have to pass this house, as the most direct route to his Dome ,• and it was therefore suggested by the learned counsel, in his opening speech, that the prisoners bad formed the design of robbing anticipating that he would call at this beerhouse on his road beets. Between 8 and 9 o'clock in the evening Mr. Blackmon did call in at the White Horse, and was re ceived by George Sparks at the door. They then went in and had some drink. They drank a quantity of beer with ski and brandy in it, for some of which Mr. Blackmon beid, and then played at cards with Sparks. It seams that won the games, and Sparks had to expend nearly all his money in paying the reckoning. During the time they were la the house Mr. Blackmer. produced a half-crown, whi4 he said was all the mosey he had got, thus showing, as it is be • livred, that he was aware of being in bad compaay. To this observation Hitchcock said, " I won' t rob you.eir," and Sparks said, "Master is net *feud of us," spot which Mr.Blaek more said, "No, by gams." Just before they left the house the two prisoners were observed to leave the room, and come beck again for a few minutes. They all left the how shortly after Gee o'clock on the Sasday moraine ; and at bar o'clock, as the deceased did not arrive at home, his son got up, and went is search of him. The yeaag man found him a short distance from the road —bleeding —his skull fractured, and his jaw dreadfully lacerated. His watch, which was afterwards found in his pocket, was braised, and had stopped at seventeen minutes to two o'clock. His purse, eontainieg two five pond notes, was not taken; but he had been robbed of 111. in gold. The prisoners were suspected of the murder, and were appre hended. Sparks made three isonfessiess of his guilt to the constable, and the coroner, at the inquest. He said to Braddick, a constable, in t he presence of several persons, " It's no use to care no more about it. I would as soon toll the whole truth as not. I killed him with a part of a pair of tongs. 1 think I killed him with the first blow. I struck him twine afterwards." There was a pair of tongs by the fireplace ia the house where his confession was made, and the prisoner took them up, and showed the people how he did it. He said, " I hit him back-handed, and I threw the to Into the Bridge- house river." The constable found the eke. of tangs (a murderous weapon) at the spot indiestemilir the printer.

In his coa -1 Cession the prisoner Sparks acquitted Hitchcock of any par ticipation in the crime • but as there were footmarks ear risponding with his bots, in whkh there were some peen ' liar marks, he was committed for the same charge of wilful murder. Several crimsons deposed to t►e fact that they saw the tracks of Hitchcock's boots war the ease of the mur- der, bat not within 110 yards thereof. Hitch cock's explanatioa of the marks was that they mast have been made when he came along the l ived in the custody of the constable ; bat it was proved in evidence that there was a severe frost that monting, and that it was impossible that foot prints could have been so impressed on the road.

On Saturday. at eight Vela*, the case was resumed. Mr. Ring addressed the jury en behalf of Hitchcock : and Mr. Henry eonsidered that the men were bound to eft a week's notice of leaving, end ordered the defendant 'to return to his employeseut, and give the proper notice, it he wished to lases. It could never be allowed that a b ody of win should Übe upon themselves to stop the business of an establishment by deserting in eombinatiou at say hour they liked. The other six men must do the same, or they would be imprisoned. The defendant expressed his willingness to do so. _ CLERKEN WELL._ _ A care-worn looking woman, named Fisher, residing at No. 7, Saver-street, liatton-garden, charged her husband with endeavouring to strangle her. The complainant said that four months ago she became the wife of the prisoner, and was then reeessed of a very comfortable home. Beer since their wedding-day she had not been free from a black eye, her husband having almost nightly returned home at all hours, dragged her by the halt of her head out of bed, and threatened to murder her. Her body was covered with bruises. The prisoner, who behaved with extreme hardihood, WY ordered to be brought up on a future day. Mr. Coleridge, in a powerful speech, contended that his client Spathes had no intends, of taurderiag Mr. Black more, but only to rob him. His Lordship summed up at groat length, and after a quarter of an boar's rjeliberaties, the jary returned a ver dict of guilty agaisast the primmer Sparks, but acquitted Hitchcock, His Lordship then proceeded In a mast impressive mea ner to pass upon Sparks the sentence of death. He held out no mercy to the noformaate man; sad when he came to the last words—. you will be hanged by the neck"—his lordship was so much affected that he leaned upon the bench and wept aloud. The prisoner maintained throughout great firmness, a solitary mar only Wag observed to roll down his cheek when the kayoed judge exhibited so much feeling. LAMBETH. The Hon. 0. C.:Norton was for mine time engaged in inves tigating acme of a highly suspicious character. Some days since information reached the magistrate to the effect that since the b, ginning of January last no less than three fe males (all front the country, and apparently ingood circum stances) had been prematurely delivered of still-born in fants in the same apartment in • boarding and lodging honse in the vicinity of Waterloo-road. It was also stated by the person conveying this information that those fe males had all been introduced is the house by a person re presenting himself as a surgeon, hut of whose qualifications there are some doubts, and who, it was further stated, is in the habit of advertising in the newspapers, offering to at ' tend and take care of ladies during their trouble. When made acquainted with the shove particulars, the magistrate I sent for Hayes, one of the detectives belonging to the L divi sioo, and placed the case for inquiry in the hands of that officer. Hayes brought to hie worship • middle-aged fe male, who acknowledged that she had attended all three of the females in quesion, and who gave, in answer to the questions of Mr. Norton, the following account of the affair : She said that, in the month of November last, she was sogsged by a lady, stopping at the house of Mrs. —, to attend her daring her confinement. In the early part of .•anuary she was sent for, and the lady, after three days' illness, was delivered of a still• born infant, which had not come to maturity by two or three months. The lady went by the name of Mrs. ll—, and represented herself as the wife of a shipping clerk at Southampton. She seemed to witness to be too dashing (or the wife of a person in medium circumstances, and *be told witness that she had come to town to be confined, knowing that she should have superior attention and advice to that which she could MOLTS at Southampton. . . Mr. No r rton—lf that wu the only object, did you not think it extraordinary that she should have come to Lon don at least three months before her proper time ? Female—Yes, sir, I certainly did think it strange. Mr. Norton— H ad beer. visited, that you are aware of, by her husband, sr any male person ? Female—No, air, by no male person that I am aware of, except the surgeon. Mr. Norton—Had you seen the surgeon, as you call him, give the female any medicines prior to her delivery Female—No, sir. Mr. Norton—And In your judgment, you did not consi der this person a married woman ? Female—No, sir, I must say I did not. Mr. Norton—Well, go on, and state what further took place at this house. Female—Well, sir, after Mrs. B. had gone to Southamp ton, as it was represented, I attended two other ladies. Mr. Norton—Were they also delivered of stillborn chil dren? Female—Tee, air. Mr. Norton—Did these arrive at their proper period of birth ? Femde—TMT were like the first. Mr. Nortoa—Did you know the names of either of the mothers is thee, eases ? Female—Only one of them, air. She was called Mrs. W., and is • rermukably healthy and flee-looking woman. Mr. Nortois,-Tbe same medical man attended all three ? Female—Yes, sir. Mr. Nortaa—Were you aware whether Mrs. W. was • married woman or not Female—Though she sometimes spoke about her bus baud, she at other times alluded to him as "her gentle ma!," aad therefore I did not think she was married. Mr. Norton—Did it nut strike you se exceedingly extra ordinary, if not very suspicions, that three females, all from the country, should have been delivered, so much before their proper time, of stillborn inf.nts ? Female — lt ce rtain) did, your Worship, and I candidly acknowledge, that I should not like to attend anybody else there. Hayes—l understand, your worship, that the same room is now engaged for another lady, who is musing from the country to be confined there. Mr. Norton—l must ray, that the whole affair has • suspicious appearance. Is the servant of the house here I Hayes—Yea, sir, she is. The servant was submitted to a lengthened examination. She admitted the truth of the above statement, but denied that she had ever mentioned to any person (as had been represented by the person who had first Riven information) that she bad seen the head of one of the infants put into water, and kept there for some time. She said the persons who had given the information had defrauded her mistress by leaving her house without paying their rent, and had been influenced by vindictive motives. Mr. Norton thought that quite enough had been shown to prove the necessity for a further in setigation, and di rected Hayes, the officer, to call on the medical man and tell him that his professional character was much involved in the disclosure, and that he wished him to attend before him and explain his conduct in the matter. MARKETS. HARDWARE„ •• - Sznitrworrale, Itasca 19.—A1l the repasts relative to the condition of trade here are of the most encouraging character. During the last ten days the merchants have given out their orders with more freedom, and the factors' traveller are sending home large orders from all parts of the country, readily obtaining them, notwithstanding the very considerable advance iii prices, which has been in most imam quite sisal to the rise in the ptice of the raw material. The price of copper, which had considerably given way last week, is reported to have again stiffened ; and having regard to the nature of the advice. received from the Australian mines, there does not now appear to be much probability to any decline at present in the market value. Indeed, increased firmness will be given to the price by reason of the large quantity required for the new coinage, which will consume well nigh a fortnight's pro duction of copper ; and as the coining is to be commenced forthwith, there will be an immediate and heavy draught upon stocks. Already tenders have been invited by the government from several persons in this' town, and it is un derstood that the contracts will be accepted, and the coining preceeded with as speedily as possible, complaints of the scarcity of the copper coinage being pressed upon the go ' vernment from all parts of the country. The India mail has brought some rather heavy orders for that market, and in spite of the overwhelming quantity of all descriptions of Birmingham goods which have been sent oat to Australia, traders who have recently come over to this country are pressing for the ezenstion of orders received some time since, but held bask because of the advance which has taken place is rips, ',premium an average of from 30 to 40 per cent. The orders frees the Caps are said to be larger that: they have bees ter some years ; this is probably attributable to the war which has caused a plentifulaess of money in the colony, and given an impetus to the demand for our manu factures which, having in view the limited population, cannot be expected to be other than of a temporary cha racter ; we are glad, however, to be enabled to state , that, with the exception of the West Indies, the colo nial trade generally is brisk; the lleziaan trade is reported to be good, but from Buenos Ayres, Monte Video, and that quarter, the orders have been declining for the last year ; at the present time they are said to be scanty, and remittances very irregular. Upon the whole, we be lieve that our trade Is in a highly nourishing condition ; this is admitted by all the most intelligent and beet informed manufacturers; all the artisans are tally employed, and appearances would seem to indicate a eon iausace of the present state of things for a time at least. The Iron trade is reported to be recovering from the check it received just prior to last quarter-day; there has been no material decline in prices, and an opinion is rather prevalent that irowstone will be dearer after next quarter-day than it is at the present time. COTTON.—laviapooL, Matto 19.—The market closed tamely and steadily, and compared with the rates current yesterday prices hare undergone no change. The sales amount to 6,000 bales, and comprise 6,000 American (1,000 fur export and 1,000 taken by speculators) ; 200 Egyptian, at thl. to Bd. ; 600 Surat, at 3/d. to 41d. ; 200 Sea Island, at 20d. to 2s. M. MANCIIESTia, Malice 19.—Prices are somewhat less firm to-day and there has been less business' in yarn and cloth than in the previous part of the week. The cotton advice, from the United State., and the trade letter, from India and China were calculated to discourage operations here, yet on Tuesday and Thursday there was • moderate demand sprung up, and prices resumed a steadier appear ance not very well understood, but generally attributed to the influence of a reaction perceptible in the Liver pool market, where the daily reports of sales were larger than for some time past, and led to • hardening in the rates of cotton. The total sales of cotton during the week at Liverpool were 58,380 bales, at an advance of id. per lb. upon American caplet, but it turns out that of this large quantity only 37,380 hales of all kinds were taken by the trade, upwards of 10,000 of the remainder being taken for speeulatiow, and of 11,000 for export. This tem porary action upon the market is reported to day upon o ur exchange, to have been calmed by the operations of Ameri can speculators at Liverpool. Be this as it may our market is lapsing into its former state, and there has bees • diffi culty in parting with either yarn or cloth this morning without submitting to lower prices. It is probable from what has taken place that orders have accumulated to some extent in first bands, which must be thrown upon the market directly it assumes greater sten:limes, with prices which will give confidence to the trade of ,nerntanenoe, and lead to more activity than we Imre now ha,.t for some time mist.

GUILDFORD, March 19.—There was a very large market of Wheat, the trade for which was dull, but after yielding to a decline of Is. on all but superfine runs, a considerable amount of business was done.

Although • slightly improved tone is reported to have been experienced at 1 leading markets held daring the present week, still the trade here has remained uninfluenced thereby, and all articles have continued to meet a slow dragging sale at barely previous rates. The imports at Liverpool consist of liberal supplies of wheat, beans, Indies corn, and Your from aboard, and of moderate quantities of oats sad oatmeal from Ireland. At our market this morn ing there was a somewhat firmer feeling exhibited by sellers than for some time past, but the business passing was of a very limited character. In tke value of wheat, oat,. or oatmeal no material change was apparent, but for flour we reduce our quotations 6d. per sack. linwcasms.VPON-TYNS, March 19.—The trade during the present week has ruled exceedingly slow, but, as the arrivals of Wheat have not been excessive, factors, by making a further slight concession, have bans enabled to effict a tolerable clearance. With respect, however, to Flour, holders have had no alternative but to land, as no reasonable abatement would induce buyers to come forward. Other articles have undergone so little change as scarcely to deserve comment. At our market this morning we had a much less supply of Wheat from the growers, and, having little offer ing from on board shio, fresh-thrashed samples were taken off readily at an improvement of Is. per qr., but in the value of other descriptions we have little variation to note, although there was rather more passing, the demand running chiefly upon the better descriptions of foreign. Flour was held generally with more confidence, but trans actions were only upon a limited scale. Rye, excepting the best kinds, comparatively neglected. Malting Barley had a little more tone, without, however, any quotable change being apparent; grinding and distilling sorts, on the eon. trary, were less sought after. Malt, unleu fine, difficult to quit, and the turn cheaper. Beans were not so much pressed, whilst boiling Peas, owing to the inclemency of the weather, met a slightly improved inquiry. With Oats we were fairly supplied by our growers, bet the arrivals coast wise being more moderate than of late, all descriptions were held more firmly, and, if anything, were the turn dearer. The arrivals this week are:—Wheat, eoutwise, 2,255 ; fo reign, 189; Rye, coastwise, 173; Barley, 381; Malt, 210; Oats, 750 : Peas, 10 ; foreign, 253 ; Beans, foreign, 1 ; ' Flour, 2,642 seeks. Noswicit, March 19.—At our market this day there was a small offer of Wheat, by both merchants and farmers, chiefly in indifferent condition. Killers wereslow buyers, and demanded a slight concession in price; but the offer being very small, sellers would not make any reduction, and prices ruled very dull, with no change worthy of noti:e. Flour trade very slow; few buyers f. o. b. No change in price occurred. Amount of business transacted small. Barley trade small; good malting qualities were scarce, and realised similar prices to last week ; grindiag descriptions were obtainable at rather lower figures. Beans were a (sir supply, and extreme prices were paid. Peas : offer small; demand small; no alteration in value. Oats were a good supply, quality low, and a dragging sale ; some fine parcels, suitable for seed, were offered, and realised full prices. We do not alter our quotations. PITERIBOROUOII, March 19.—We had a fair supply of Wheat, aud a large supply of spring corn here to-day. Wheat wild readily at last week's prices. Floe Barley unaltered in value ; other sorts le. per qr. lower. Oats could be bought 6d., and Beans la. per qr. under the prices of last week. BEADING, March 19.—The supply of Wheat was mode- I rate at this day's market. Sales were very inanimate, and in many instances prices gave way ls. per qr. without a clearance being effected. Barley trade, of all description., was not so good as of late ; malsters being tolerably full, sellers of best quality had to reduce prices from Is. to 2s. per qr. All other kind of corn ruled about late rates. Wisa•cm, March I9.—The supply of grain of all kinds la short to-day, and the growers are disinclined to take tut week's prices. The best dry Wheat must be called fully Is., and all other aorta 6d., per qdlidearer, with a good demand. Oats, Beata, and Peu as betore in price, with a fair trade. Woacatirrza, March 19.—At this day's market there was • good supply of English Wheat, the greater portion of se condary and inferior quality ; good samples of English and foreign realised last week's rates; other descriptions in limited request. Malting Barley found buyers at former rates; grinding a slow sale. A fair demand for Oats at the currency of this day se'nnight. Beans Hun. Yonx, March 19—We have only a moderate show of Wheat at our market to-day, the demand for which ruled slow at last week's prices. Fine Barley fully as dear ; other sorts neglected. Beans and Oats dull sale at former rates. Wheat, white, 475. to 50s. per imperial qr.; red, 445. to 465. Barley, malting, 30s. to 33c ; grinding, 28s. to 30s. Beans, 36.. to 38s. Peas, 36c Rye, 30s. Malt, 58s. to 665. Oats, H. to 10d. per stone of 141 b.. Flour, 36a. to 38a. per sack of 2801 b.. WATIRPORD, March 19.—Our arrivals of foreign grain this week have been to a fair extent, but the receipts of Wheat and Barley from farmers were exceedingly small. With o.its we continue to be well supplied by boat. There has been very little change in prices ; the general character of the trade, though dull and monotonous, has been firm, and we repeat our former quotations for all articles ex cepting farmers' Wheat, which, from scarcity, has recovered the dee ins noted in our last. Flour is rather cheaper, except for the very beet samples. Indian Corn in somewhat better demand, but at rather lower prices for middling qualities. Imports this week: Wheat, 1,600qr5.; Indian ' Cora 3,965 ; Oate, 10 brie. ; Flour, 2lsacks. Exports this week: Oats, 9,967 brie. ; Flour, 1,310 sack. ; Oatmeal, 313 carts. KULICALDY, Much 19.—At our country markets this week the business doing in grain has been extremely limited. Farmers asked high prices, to which merchants would not accede, so that the sales made were merely in re tail to consumen, at about lad week', rates. Here to-day we had a large supply of Oats, moderate of Wheat, and small of Barley. Wheat sold readily at fully last week's prices. Barley also brought fully as much money as last week. Oats met a very slow demand, and ordinary sorts were la, per qr. lower. POULT RY,&c.-Niwo AIM AND LILDINRALL, MARCH 19.-Geese, 41. to 61.
