Ey the will of Edmund Wakott, citizen and haberdasher Of Lyndon, ellstyll in January, 1667, the rents and profits of seventeen acres of freehold, sod one acre of copyhold land, were vested it the parson and ehruchwardens of the parish of Lambeth„ to tie (lisps mil of by them and their successors to and amongst the most needy and poor people of t►e said parish of Lsmbeth, according to the discretion of the parson and churchwardens of the same parish for the time brirg., By a scheme fur the regulation of the charity, approved of by the Court of Chancery in 11431, the rents asisiog from the property, then producing irgrOl. per anima, were appor tioned in moieties to the maintenance of certain schools is the parish connected with the church of England, and to the payment of weekly pensions to a certain number of the aged and neces►itous poor of the parish. By a new scheme, approved by Mager Tierney in 1352, it was proposed that on the dropping in of the pensions by the deaths of the recipients, the incumbents of the parish should have an option t.. apply the funds released either to grants of new pensions to the poor, or for purposes of education, but so that not more than halt the funds, hitherto applied in pen sions, should be appropriated otherwise than towards the actual maintenance of the poor. Upon an application to confirm the sebeinesbeinemade toVice-Chancellor Kinder,- ley, his honour diticted that it should be varied, by en abling the incumbents of the pariah to apply the whole fend, which should be released by the dropping in of the pongees, to purposes of education if they should think fit. The question was now submitted to their lordships by way of appeal from the Vice Chancellor's de cision, whether any portion of the fund released by the dropping in of the pensions could be applied otherwise than in support of the necessitous poor of the parish. Their tordships held that the whole of the funds applied to pensions must continue, u the pensions dropped, to be applied iu furtherance of the primary purpose of the testator aa shown by the words of the bequest, namely the support of needy and poor persons of the parish, and they directed the scheme to Detoured seurdingly. email Vi NA W. Paoi WOOD. EDWARDS V.

He would, however, first cossidcr what was the proper construction of the words. It was ar2uctl on the side of the next of kin that they must be applied to churches afterwards to be built, and by those who lopreeented the charities that they applied to churches already built, or at all events to those afterwards to be built.

Mr. 8.110, it appeared, had not been originally brought up to trade, hut was • man of cussidered* genius and talent, which he hat applied to matters °lenience; and he claimed, and justly claimed, to be the first who :had discovered the mode of applying electricity to the measure of time. But, like most perboas who indulged in scientific pursuits, he had been sadly negligent of those ordinary rules of good conduct and fair dealing which ought to go vern every one who embarked not strictly in commerce so called, but who contracted debts sad borrowed limey under circumstances in which it was the bounden duty of the party borrowing to be clear and explicit as to bia means of repaying. There were great difficulties in dealing with • case of this description, and in applying to it the prin ciples which ordinarily governed the court in awarding certificates to traders. The bankrupt was not, in the strict sense of the word, a mere trader, though, having bought and sold these electric clocks, he was what the law called a dealer and chapman, and was thus entitled to claim the benefits, and was subieet to the responsibilities, of the law of bankruptcy. Still, it was difficult to apply to him, in the present stage of the matter, the principle by which cer tificates were awarded with reference to • mane conduct as • trader. Mr. Bain himself, when asked what was the market value of his patents, repudiated the idea, and said there could be no market value, as they were things that never came into the market; they could only be pur chased by one man who understood them from another who did so. The transactions were in • corner, ss then — was ;;IT market overt ; the I articles were matter'''. of private contract between indi viduals alone. That showed at once the difficulty of apply log the principles which governed the cases of ordinary traders. Another difficulty was how to judge of the con duct of men whose minds were so absorbed in scientific pursuits, as Mr. Bain stated he had been, as to neglect nit , gether, accounts, figures, and matters oibusiness. Ile said in effect—" I have paid any 'attention to these matters; grand scientific projects have always been upper most in my mind; the sateen I have met with, the at knowledged merit of my discovery and the vast extent of the benefits which may be conferred by it, have wholly absorbed my mind, to the exclusion of the mere common place views of pounds, shillings, and pence; and, there fere, you must not expect from me such accounts as you would from an ordinary trader." The best rule to guide the court in such a case was that suggested bj Mr. Young, who had conducted the case with the greatest possible fair s( is and propriety towards the bankrupt—that though the principle ought not to be applied so rigidly and:stringently as in an ordinary cue, Mr. Bain was not to exempt himself from those rules which ought to govern every man, whether a man of science or of business, or whatever he might be—the rules of good faith and truth. When seek ing the assistance of others, be was bound, not only not to exaggerate or state untruth, bat—especially nude, the cir cumstances in which he was placed—not knowingly to sup press that which he knew to be true, when, by means of that suppression of truth, he induced others to lend him money, knowing in his conscience there was no reammable or probable prospect of his repaying it. In this ease there were three different oppositions; first, by the soireele, es representing the creditors at large, upon themeral Mew as of the cue presented in the report of the @nimbi* ; and there was abundant matter in that report. set only to justify that opposition, but to make it the bemeiss duty of ' the assignees to prefer it. He was emend by • particular creditor, Mr. Fletcher, one of the oungnme s efbeensplaind, and justly to, of having bass Wesel M enter in to connexion with the buistapt es mismiger or head clerk, with a view to as nitwits partner ship, and, through not bMng told the whole truth u to Mr. Bain 's pecuniary pea Mon, having been in , duced to advance him a considerabk sant of money—a very large sum for a man in Mr. Fletebses guidon, for the loss to him had been so serious as to rasa him to penury. He had established his polities that he bed been most unfairly dealt with, and he had a right te unpin of Mr. Bain's conduct. Another creditor. Mr. Dome, urged an objection much of the same ebanike.

By their assistance he obtained hem time se One Ow his patents and inventions very ormetioroMe were of mosey • but the re sult was that intend el be. smeesseld be only lost more and more. He went geo booloremle instead of for wards ; and at the time be esotasnersi his accounts, the Ist of Jacuary, 1852, Ma was behind the world in a very large amount-4,3931. ILK, riv, including two debts which had been omitted, nearly 5,0001. That was very shortly after he had borrowed the money from Mr. Fletcher and Mr. Beau. The nu was therefore very different from that of a man entering for the first time into a speculation, and seek ing assistance to bring his discoveries into note, on the ground that he was starting fair in the world. This was the cue of • man who, to use a commas phrw, was almost used up;" all his simulations ratans of getting mosey had failed; and he found himself behind the world 5,0001. That fast gave • very adverse view to Mr. Bale's case. Beim bekindkand nearly 5,0001. at the time mentioned, how had be proceeded ? Daring the short period over which the accounts extended, be had lived at a great expense—about 7001. in 11 months; and Mr. Fletcher stated that, through seeing him living in comparative afflu ence and comfort, with four servants, be had the more readily trusted him, never dreaming that he was a man behind the world 5,0001. It was said by his counsel that that we. not too much for a man with a family to spend. It would not be too much for a man of his education and talents, if he could afford it ; but for • man livin g . on the means of others 7001 . in 11 months was a very serious sum indeed. If the humbler classes of Madmen were continu ally censured by the court for not watching their expendi ture, and for spending money which they knew belmged to their creditors, some observation must be made when gentlemen of education and talent did the same thing. There the expenditure formed a just ground of complaint, and showed that the bankrupt was utterly reck less as to consequences. His bead had been entirely filled with these speculations. He had felt, and no doubt now felt convinced that they would ultimately succeed, and gain him a great name and reputation, and in striving to attain his great object he seemed to have neglected and laid aside every other consideration. It was to be hoped he would not do so in future. The point favourable to Mr. Baia was that he bad given up all he had ; his stock, on which he pro bably put too high a value, was there for the creditors, whatever it might be worth ; they bad also got all the patents, from which it was to be hoped something would be realised. The prospect wee not • very cheering one; but in the hands in which the estate was placed, no doubt everything possible would be done to bring it to the best issue. A gentleman, who laid he was a creditor, here interposed, and stated that the bankrupt had not given everything up to the assignees Hie Honour said he could not now listen to any such statement. The creditor ought to have come at the proper time, and have opposed the bankrupt's certificate, for which there had been abundant opportunity, the case having been two or three times before the court, and the meetings having been advertised. The creditor had better communicate with the assignees. There had born no fraudulent prefer. ince, or attempt to serve one creditor rather than another ; the bankrupt had assisted the assignees—and the court hoped he would continue to do so—in making the most of the wreck of his property which remained. Protection, renewable from time to time, would be granted, during the suspension of his certificate ; but should it appear that he had not given up the whole of his property, or was not doing his best for the assignees, rather than considering himself, the court would feel bound to withhold further protection from arrest. Looking at the whole of the case, and making every allowance for Mr. Bain, the court was hound to tell him, and those who like him speculated at the expense of other people, that such practices could not be sanctioned by a court of justice, and that ha could not be held entitled to the benefits conferred by the bankrupt law uniil a considerable period bad elapsed. With regard to the classification of certificates, much had been said very lately indeed ; and no later than Le c l u te su rer t y, several of the commissioners had been d • that subject before a committee of the House o Lords. Many persons, most competent to farm an opinion on those matters, thought that when a third.clase certificate was awarded to a trader, a stigma was fixed upon him for life, which no future conduct, however meritorious, could efface. As the law stood, the clam of certificate was determined by ascertaining whether the failure had arisen, wholly or in part, or not at all, from unavoidable losses and misfortunes. In this case the failure had clearly not arisen wholly from univuidable circumstances ; but the bankrupt was fairly entitled to that which his counsel asked for him, • second-class certificate, as his losses on the American pa tents were partly attributable, no doubt, to misfortune. The judgment of the court would be, that the certificate should be suspended for twelve months from that date ; when granted, to be of the second class. Protection would bt granted for three months, to be renewed at the end of that time, unless it were shown that Mr. Baia was acting for his own iaterest, and not for that of hie creditors. The court trusted he would not do so, hut would do all in hie power to render the property effective for his creditors. The opposing creditors would have their costs cut of the estate. Both oppositions had been conducted with the greatest possible fairness. INSOLENT DEBTOR, COURT.—SATuRDAY. Hama Ma. 13moolomorsa Mum% Ix VII MATT= oF WILLIAM H. HAlM:T.—lima- T•wr Dacsazox.

The insolvent, in whom estate theft is sufficient property to pay all his creditors, and leave hi* a surplus, is the lay =proprietor of the Vicarage of Lindfield, in Sussex, the tithes of which produce about 6801. a year. The Rev.' Mr. Sewell, when the insivent was in pruon some years ago, woe licensed by the bishop of the dimes* and per formed duty at the parish church for nine years. He now claimed under the estate 301. a year for about foie years, and Mr. Mainly resisted the claim on the ground that thi; bishop had no right to make the appointment, inasmuch as he (Mr. Naioly) was the sole patron of the living. Mr. Douse, on the part of the insolvent, contended that it was a "donative" living from the reign of Elisabeth, and the appointment vested in the ° donee" of the place, who was the insolvent, and no one had a right to appoint a preacher. Mr. Field, as counsel for the Rev. Mr. Sewell, said the insolvent was the lay impropriator, and u such was bound to pay a clergyman for performing the duties to the parishioners. bie relied on a case is "Vernon'. Reports" on the subject. _ _ _ Mr. Douse showed from authorities that the right never lapsed, notwithstanding no appointment had been made, and no matter what was the spiritual destitution of the place, because it was a donative. Mr. Cooke, for the assignees, did not oppose the claim ; he thought it was one which, inequity, ought to be paid. Mr. Commissioner Phillips, in delivering his judgment, said the claim was a clear one. It was founded in equity, and he should admit it. Here was a reverend gentleman who bad performed the duties for nine years, and only claimed for four years. For nine years no objection was rude. It was contended that the living was a donative, but the insolvent was described as the lay impropriator. It was clear Mr. Sewell had been licensed h the bishop and bad performed the duties of the place. For such valuable and important services Mr. Sewell had a right to be paid. His Honour reversed the finding of the Registrar (Hr. Ingpen) and admitted Mr. Sewell u a creditor. the note into his pocket. I seised hold of his hand, and took = from hint the letter produced which Mr. Burchett had " hlaced under the stone. 1 then told him he must consider imself in custody on suspicion of being concerned in a burglary in Regent-street. He said he knew nothiag at all about it. Oa searching him at the station I found upon him 25 pawnbrokers' duplicates, and 23 horse-racing tickets. Sergeant Hardwick said he showed the two letters to the prisoner, when he at ones acknowledged that they were written by him. He gave a right address, and witness ascertained that he was in good employment at Mena's, the brewers. This completed the first charge. Mr. Counore then very briefly stated that a short time ' ago his premises were broken into, and property of the value of 1,6001. was stolen. He offered steward of 1001. for the recovery of the property or the detection of the thieves ; and subsequently received a letter, wherein the writer stated that he was one of the party who committed the rob bery, and that he was the one who had planned the jobs at Deine's and at Jones's in the Strand ; and if he (Mr. Cut. more) would place five sovereigns in • hole in a certain wall in Smithfield, be would give hum the necessary information to enable him to recover the whole of his property. This letter was signed " Sorrowful-faced Carpenter." Mr. Cut more complied with the terms stated in the letter, and in serted an advertisement in one of the morning papers that he had done so. . . . . Inspector Jackson, D Division, thea informed )4. Hard wick that several jewel robberies had recently been com mitted, and that th• parties who had been robbed bad re ceived similar letters to those produced, and if the prisoner was remanded there was no doubt other cases would be brought against him. The prisoner, who offered no reply to the charge, was re manded till Friday neat, at 1 o'clock. THB POLICE COURTS. MANSION-HOUSE. A foreigner, named G. San (Jarrett, was charged with forgery to a very large amount. A Clerk is the Union Bank said, that Measn. Duncan and Co., of New York, were in the habit of giving letters of credit noon the Union Bank in London, annexed to the form of which was a list of mercantile houses from whom the bearer of the letter of credit might receive the money, and the bearer would then draw a bill on the Union Bank for the amount. In November or December last, the bank ing-houre receive'- advice from Duncan and Co., that they had given a letter of credit for 2101. No. 41. On the 11th of December, a person, supposed to be the prisoner, brought a corresponding letter of credit, and obtained 601. on account. It was the practice to indorse on the letter of credit, before returning it to the person presenting it, the amount received, in order that the other bankers mentioned is the letter of credit, from whom the party was authorised to receive money, should not receive a larger sum than was intended. December 17 the same person obtained 201. So fai;as witness recollected, it was a person of the prisoner's height and:complexion. Recollected going to the shop of Moses and Son, where the prisoner was pointed out to him, at which shop it was ascertained that a 6/. note, which was , a portion of the amount paid to him, had be en: given in payment for goods supplied at that establishment. Mr. Michael Dierburg, an assistant to Messrs. Moses and Son, proved that the prisoner had given to him a 51 note, identi fied by the last witness, in payment for goods supplied, and that lie gave the name of Macedo, lodging at Miller's Hotel, Blackfriars. Mr. Edward Wilson, of No. 6, Adam's-court, Old Broad-street, City, of the firm of Wilson and Co. of Sc. Petersburg, stated that their firm at St. Petersburg was in the habit of paying letters of credit drawn by Duncan and Co., and he produced two bills drawn by G. San Garret, supposed to be the prisoner, upon the Union Bank, for 2,6001. and 601., purporting to be drawn in pursuance of Duncan and Co.'s letter of credit, No. 41, and witness expressed his belief that he should be able to prove that the same person had received the sum of 6001. from a firm is Berlin, upon the same letter of credit. Witness's brother at St. Petersburgh paid the money he (witness) had advanced, in gold Russia imperials and half imperials, about the 21st of February last. Mr. John Hearne, of Regent's-circus, money changer, deposed that in March last the prisoner called upon him with a large quantity of Russian gold half•imperide ' and witness purchased a portion of them to the amount of 6801., and gave the prisoner bank-notes in exchange. Mr. Mullen*, who appeared for the prosecution, said he should he able to prove at a hinny examination, by the evi dence of witnesses from Amoeba and St. Petersburgb, who were most anxious to attend, that the letter of credit given by Duncan and Co. to the prisoner was for the sum of 2101. only, and that, although the letter of credit would still be in the hands of the prisoner, be should be enabled to chew that it had been altered to ie enormous sum of 6,0001. and upwards, so as to include the very large amounts he had received at. St. Petersburgh and Berlin. The prisoner, who spoke with a foreign accent, and was with difficulty undentood, said he had received the letter of credit originally for the sum of 6,6101., that be had only drawn money as his occasions required, and had not exceeded the amount mentioned in the letter of credit. He declared that he was perfectly well known as a merchant. The Lord Mayor said the evidence was sufficient to justify him in affording the prosecutors the opportunity of obtain ing further testimony to substantiate the serious charge of which the prisoner was accused, and remanded him for a week. WORSHIP-STREET. Ann Kelly was placed at the her upon a charge preferred by a gentleman named Fell, resident at No. 3, Medina Nillu, Balaton, under the following circumstances: On Friday evening the prisoner made her way through the garden to the kitchen entrance, upon _pretence of pur chasing broken glass, but, whisperingly, offered to tell the fortune of Rebecca Blake, the servant girl, who at first re fused; but, after some importuning. consented, on being told that the fates bad many good pings in store for her, and especially a good husband, and that she might learn the whole particulars for the small charge of threepence. She produced a sixpence, and, as requested, produced also a handkerchief and a key, which were mysteriously tied to gether by the prisoner, who, however, presently discovered that three pieces of silver would be required, merely to complete the charm, and not for her to keep. The girl accordingly handed her an additional shilling and a six pence. Tile prisoner then, finding that she could make nothing more of her dupe, applied some opprobrious epithets to her, and endeavoured to make off with the money, the handkerchief, and the key, but the girl reso lutely closed the garden-gate to prevent her egress, and rang the house-bell, which brought out her master; and the latser, on being informed of the fade, sent for the police, and gave the prisoner into custody. The prisoner was committed to the House of Correction for two months as a rogue and vagabond. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. - - - Henry Jana Lmarence, described as a carpenter, of 21, Tabernacle-row, Finsbury, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Hardwick, charged with endeavouring to obtain the sum of 101. from Mr. W. Burchett, watchmaker and jeweller, 131, Oaford-street, by false and fraudulent pre tences. He was also charged with obtaining a sum of 61. from Mr. Cutmore, watchmaker, wte. No. 6, St. Ann's lane, St. Martin's-le Grand, under similar pretences. Mr. Buechel deposed that, between the night of Satur day, the 30th April, and Monday morning, the 2nd of May, his premises were broken into, and watches and jewel lery were stolen to the amount of upwards of 2,0001., and on Friday morning, p received a letter by post, which he produced. Mr. Bishop, the clerk, read the letter, of which the fol.- 1 lowing is a copy : " Sir,—At a great risk, I now venture to write to you, to let you know, that as one of the parties who was concerned in your job, and that in consequence of a disagreement be tween us, I have made up my mind to divulge all our con cerns, which have been numerous lately ; but I mean to keep myself safe ; so, if you agree to give me 101. to night, I will put you in the way to take the others, and all the property, which must be done early, as the goods will all be removed on Saturday night, if not stopped. Put a paper with Yes,' or 'No,' on in your window this morning, until 2 o'clock, so that I may write to you again, where to place the money, if you agree. We have been out all night; be quiet, or it will be all blown." In reply to this letter, said witness, I wrote the word "Yes" oa a piece of paper, and placed it in the windew ; and, between 4 and 6 o'clock on the same Coq, I received another letter, which I now produce. This letter was as follows: • " the sum named (in gold, or two 51. notes) is made up into a small parcel and placed under a flag -stone, over a gutter in Saint James's-park, at 9 to-night, and I find all is right, I will call upon you is half an hour, at your shop, to communicate ; but, in doing so, all about me must remain a secret, or I shall be blown. You will see the place marked as below (here was drawn a plan of the spot). Keep your promise, and I will not fall in mine, or, before loag, the gang will be awfully destructive, if not di scovered and stoppe d . lam sick of this present mode, and wish to leave it . . . . - _ From what the above letter stated, I placed a note, which I wrote. under a flog-stone, immediately opposite the Duke et York's column, in Saint James's-park. 1 had previously Illesamunicated with an officer, who followed me, and, after grafting there for nearly two hours, I went away,and left tbe officer there, and did not sec the prisoner till I saw him Y custody. Brown, 229 D, said—ln consequence of information I no ceived at the police-station, I went in company with Sot geant Hardwick to Saint James's-park, between 6 sad 7 o'clock on Friday night, and, on looking about, found dem spot as described in the letter just read. About 8 o'clock I went with Mr. Burchett, and saw him deposit a letter wider the flag-stone opposite Waterloo steps, in St. James's-park. I watched the spot till a quarter-past 12 o'clock, and had observed the prisoner lurking about all the time. At half past 11 he came up to me, and told me he was looking for his sister, who was lately from the country, and if he could see her, he would kick her all the way home. The prisoner then left, and went up the steps, and I saw no more of him. I identify the prisoner as the man I saw in tee park. Smith, 340 A, said, last night, about 12 o'clock, I went on duty in St. James's-park, and saw the last witness, and, from information I received from him, I watched the flag stone until 5 this (Saturday) morning, when 1 saw the prisoner come into the park and walk by the flag-stone under which a note was placed, and sat down on one of the seats. After remaining there about an hour, be got up and walked towards the Hone Guards, and from his manner riguspected he he was the party to take the note. I then walked into Spring-gardens and watched him, and saw him take a not* from underneath the stone, and walk away with it up the Duke of York's steps into Pall-mail. I followed him down there, and took him Into cuttodyjnit as be wee patios _ li, SPORTING. LATEST BETTING AT THE WEST END.

SIIIIEWBBCFLT RACES. —The programme of these races, which will commence on Thursday next, promises some excellent sport. Several hones are alrealy on the spot, and the gelds are likely to be good. The course is in fine condi tion. Many alterations and improvements have been made, particularly at the turns, which have been considerably widened. A new and commodious weighing stand hu been erected and the arrangements are altogether unexcep tionable. COTTON.—Lrrxxxoor., MAT 7.—The market closed tamely, but with much steadiness, and compared with the rates of yesterday, all kinds were without change. The sales amounted to 5,000 bales—nearly 4,000 of which were American (500 taken for export). 600 Pertains mull Ma ranbanut, at 6d. to 7d. ; 50 Babies, at 6141. to 60.; 20 Egyptians, at 60; and 400 Surats, at 3id. to 41d. MascuzsvEn, MAY 7.—There is a steady market, did prices remain very firm. Buyers are rather tenacious about price, still adhering to the impression they have so long held that the rates of cotton will not continue to be main tained, whilst sellers, on the other hand, look to any advan tage likely to be gained in that way as necessary to place the margin of profit, lately much reduced, Prom various causes, at a fair rate. Whilst much caution prevails on both sides in this respect, however, a fair demand continues to spring up from day to day, and the quiet regular transac t tions arising out of it is sufficient to carry off the whole productiou ooth of loom and spindle, leaving stocks very low in first hands, and contracts difficult to place except at very full prices. This is particularly the ease in yarns, for which spinners are constantly pressing an advance of id. per lb. In cloth, domestics are going off rather better, but without improvement of rates; all other fabrics are in good demand. For printers the inquiry is brisk, with prices in favour of producers, and for 36 and 40-inch shirtings there is a lively business. Jacconets and cambrics also go off well. WOOLLEN CLOTH.—Lams, MAT 7.—The markets to-day had a brisk and active appearance. There was a good attendance of merchants in both the cloth halls, but they purchased with considerable caution; and wo think there was a rather less business done on the whole. The trade its the warehouses connected with the home market has been rather quieter this week. The shipping houses are very busy with heavy goods, but little is doing at present in the exportation of ordinary woollen cloths. HARDWARE.— BIRMINGHAM, May 7.—Trade here remains brisk in all its branches; the export orders are rather increasing than otherwise, and all the reports as to the state of the home trade are favourable. The Board of Trade returns just issued, show the prodigious increase in the value of hardware goods exported, es compared with the corresponding month of last year; of iron, the valise of the month's export is considerably more than 800,0001., whilst last year it was little more than half a million. At the present moment the foreign orders are very large, with every probability of their being increased in the course of the next few months. The metal generally is in a more settled state ; this has given a freer action to some branches ' of the trade of this town, and to some extent enabled manu facturers to quote prices; some considerable orders have been recently received from South America and from India ; the merchants are giving out their orders with freedom, so that altogether the condition of trade in the town most be reg►rded as highly satisfactory. CORM.—C•wantrss, May 7.—A fir supply of Corn at market to-day, and Wheat WAS is. to 24. cheaper. Wheat, red, 381. to 425.: white, 445. to 461. Barley, 26e. to Ms. Beans, 335. to 365. Peas, 325. to 31s. 041, 17s. to 235. CANTIRSIIIIT, May bad but a short supply, aad trade very dull. Prices about the same. Brown Wheat, 365. to 441. ; white, 44.. to 481. Barley, 30s. to Oats, 20s. to 20s. 6d. Peas, 341. Camiam.g, May 7.—The supply of grain at our market was very limited to-day, which caused farmers to ask an advance upon Wheat ; but millers not being able to give more, it was sold about the same as last week. Berley ob tained an advance of fully Bd. per bushel. Oats much the Count stn, May 7.—An increued supply of Wheat, and short of Barley, Pear, and Beans ; the homer Is. to 2s. cheaper ; Barley, Is. lower ; no change in the value of Peas and Beans. OLUVCEBTER, May 7.—The attendance at our market to day was limited, and the supply of English Wheat mode rate, prices remaining unaltered from last week. In foreign to arrive, some wholesald transactions are reported at Is. to Is. Cd. per qr. less money. Barley a retail trade, at about former rates. Beans firm. Oats move off ste adily, and prices are the turn in favour of tellers. Weather cold and wet, growing crops backward, but healthy. - - . - - - GUILDFORD, May 7.—Our market was moderately sup plied with Wheat. The demand being very black, it was necessary to submit to a reduction of ls. per qr. on all but the best sorts. Wheat, 344. tob4s. Barley, 275. to 33e. Oats, 18s. to 235. Beans, 31s. to 395. Peas, 355. to 375. 111107011 D, May 7.—We bad a better supply of Wheat; the fined parcels heavy, at last week's prices; inferior sam ples lower. Barley sold at lest week', prices. Oats, Peas, and Beans fully maintain last week's prices. Wheat, 235. to 355. per load. Barley, 245. to 345. per qr. 0.11, 141. to 2 is. Pen, 20s. to 235. per load. Beans, 20s. to 271. Tares, 225. to 244. Rye, 19s. to 21s. lIANCHUTER, May 7. The slightly improved feel ing noticed in the trade here last week quite disappeared un receipt of the reports from Mark-laue en Monday, and the demand for dour has subsequently ruled dull, at prices rather in favour of buyers, except for really fresh made parcels. In other articles no change has occurred. Easterly winds have prevailed during the greater part of the present week, and the arrivals at Liverpool from all sources arc cousequently limited. At our market this morning the best runs of wheat and fresh-made flour maintained the currency of this day se'nnigltt, but on other kinds prices were the turn lower. Oats and oatmeal were firm at late rates. 14 XWCASTLE•VPON-TYNE, May 7.—The trade during the present week has been characterised by great depression, and business could only be promoted by submitting to a reduction of 2s. per qr. upon new foreign Wheats,47s. has to be taken for Wolgast, which price being so much lower than ether markets, a cargo of this description has been ordered off to London, sad we further understand that several cargoes which were shipping at various ports in the Baltic for this port, have been diverted to other markets, consequently, it is more than probable, front our market being one of the most depressed, i: may temporarily become one of the best, from the cause just alluded to. Flour has sold slowly, and late rates barely maintained. Other ar ticles have sold open much the same terms as here tofore. At our market this morning we had a less supply of Wheat from the growers, but from abroad the arrivals are to a pretty fair extent, which, however, not being so freely offered as during the week, fresh-thrashed samples were taken off readily at fully the rates of this day se'nuight, whereas foreign had more inquiry, at the reduced quotations of Tuesday. For new Rostock red, weighing 611b5., but made 631bs. per bushel, 48s. could not be exceeded, whilst the best runs of pre , pared Danish commended a fair share of attention, at 445. per qr., same weight. Flour was in little favour, and late quotations were with difficulty sustained. For melting liarley the demand has nearly subsided, a buyer being only occasionally to be met with, but prices are unchanged. Grinding and distilling sorts, with a more circumscribed inquiry, may be written fully ls. per qr. lower. Malt unaltered, and the same may be said of beans and Peas. With Oats we were moderately supplied by our growers, and, although the arrivals are also short, the quantity offer ing has been sufficient to meet the consumption without &Meting the value. The arrivals this week arc :—Wbest, coastwise, 1,041; foreign, 4,714 ; Barley, coastwise, 190 ; foreign, 695; Oats, coastwise, 980; Pees, coastwise, 18; foreign, 937 ; Flour, coastwise, 872 sacks ; foreign, 2. NORWICH, May 7.—Our market this day was fairly sup plied with Wheat by both growers and merchants; a reduc tion of Is. 6d. per qr. must be noted on the currency of last Saturday. Fine dry parcels were in request ; while in ferior lots, although offered at 2s. 6J. per qr. lower, found few buyers. Flour was a dull sale, at similar prices to last week. Barley trade was little or nothing, except for grinding descriptions, which commanded full rates. Beans and Pees, offer smell, demand good. Full prices were paid. Outs were in small supply ; good demand ; Is. per qr. ad sauce must be noted. AV heat, white, 48s. to 52. per qr. ; red, 424 to 455. ; Barley, grinding, 28s. to 30s. ; Beans, 365. to 385.; Peas, 345. to 36s ; Oats, 245. to 275. Fine household Flour, f.e.b., 31s. 6d. per sack of 2801111. ; pur chasers finding sacks and claiming one month's credit. PETIRBOIIOUOII, May 7.—With a fair supply of Wheat, last week's prices were fully supported. In Barley and Oats no alteration. Roans ready sale at Is. per quarter advance. READING, May 7.—The continued rain during the whole of market hours (the market being open) prevented the ex hibition of samples by pitched sacks; consequently, but little business was tracted. Former prices, however, were abtained. A few inquiries for seed Barley were made. Com paratively nothing throughout the market doing. Wisurcw, May 7.—The supply of all grain continues moderate, yet there is quite enough for the demand. The best runs of fresh Wheat fetch last week's prices, whilst all below (particularly as regards condition) must be quoted Is. cheaper. Oats and Beans fully maintain their termer value. WORCESTER, May 7.-At this day's market there was an increased supply of Wheat from the farmers, which met a fair sale at is. per qr. decline on last week's currency. Malting Barley in moderate request; and a good demand for grinding qualities, both at former prices. Old and new Beans in demand, and rather dearer. Only a retail trade for Oats, but we do not alter our quotations. YORK, May 7.-We have a moderate show of Wheat from our farmers, which met a fair sale at about last week's rates. In other articles no alteration. Wheat, white, 50s. to 625. per imperial qr.; red, 465. to 48s. Barley, malting, 31s. to 335. ; grinding, 275. to 28s. Malt, 68s. to 60s. Oats, 9d. to 94d. per stone of 141bs. Flour, 355. to 375. per sack of 2801 be. Coax, May 6.-We have no new feature to notice this week in the Coru trade ; the same dullness we remarked oa for the put month continues. Farmer's Wheat so little to market, prices are nominally the same. Barley, 3d. lower. Oats, both kinds, declined Id. to 2d. Foreign Wheat held for last week's prices, buyers come forward slowly, and only take in small parcels for their immediate wants. Indian Corn dull, and 2s. 6d. lower for prime ; secondary sorts are in good request, without change in value. Flour, 3d. per cwt. lower. Oatmeal and Indian Meal noth de clined 2s. 6d. per ton. Prepared Oats offered freely at 10s. 3d. f.o.b. for Macke, and 10s. 6d. to 10s. 9d. for white, at which a few sales were made. The receipts of native produce to the Corn market during the week have beca : Wheat, 43 brie. ; Barley, 694 ; Oats, 1,416. WATERFORD, May 7.-The depressing accounts from London, together with the large arrivals of grain reported since Saturday last, have caused our market to rule ex ceedingly dull during the week ; especially for Black Sea and Mediterranean Wheats, which have been sold at a de cline of ls. to Is. 6d. per barrel. The amount of bubiness transacted at this reduction has been very limited. In pre pared Irish there has been nothing doing. Barley in very small supply, and unaltered in value. Oats have been in good demand at former prices. The inquiry for Indian Corn has not been so extensive as of late, and holders have been obliged to make a concession of 3d. to 4d. per barrel to induce purchasers to operate. Flour has a downward tendency. Imports this week:-Wheat, 7,231 qra. ; In dian Corn, 2,000; Flour, 130 sacks and 100 brls. Exports this week : Barley, 48 brls. ; Oats, 1,850 ; Flour, 366 sacks; Oatmeal, 400 cwts. KIRKCALDY, May 7.-At our country markets, this week, few samples of any kind of grain were offering, and there being apparently as little demand, very little changed hands. Some little inquiry for Beans and Pests for cattle feeding purposes. Here, to-slay, we had moderate supplies of Wheat and Oats, and a few remnants of Barley. Sales proceeded slowly; nevertheless last week's prices were fully maintained. 'Wheat, 425. to 61s. per qr. ; Barley, 28s. to 325. Oats, 18s. to 21s. 6d. Oatmeal, per bag of 2801b5., 28s. to 295.
