setting forward the grounds upon which they considered the British ports ought to be immediately opened for the im. portation of all foreign corn, duty free. They state, that owing to the failure in the potato and the deficiency in the oorn crop this year, they had reason to apprehend that during the winter, and until next harvest, great com mercial embarrass ment and much suffering would be caused by the scarcity and consequent high price of provisions. Already the effects which never failed to u e y a scarcity of food, by a falling off in the trade w c ; 7lno . district, were begun to be felt, and unless some remedy was immediately supplied, the labouring classes would again, they feared, suffer under a return of that distress with which they had been so grievously affected some years since, and which then, as now, was caused by a scarcity of food. The state of Ireland loudly called for measures to preserve the people from impending famine. The immediate opening of the ports for the free importation of corn and provisions was, in the judgment of the menso. rialists, in every respect the wisest measure which the go vernment could adopt to prevent the calamities with the nation was threatened, and • • no circumstances could row —a under tulicsks, ' h. ure be adopted with less dista -1 '^tuest. In their opinion it was : should be o. obtain supplies, any• delay would render it Mere W." because many continental states were, and for some .- had been, endeavouring to secure for themselves any surplus 'applies of food of which they could a vail themselves. WTSHIR E. THE VICAR OF WARIILINATIR AGAIN. - " Our readers says the itriUshire Independant), will recollect the numer ous communications which appeared in the early part of but year, on the conduct of the Rev. Arthur Fane ' vicar of Warminster, in consequence of his refusal to bury Sarah Baines, a member of the Pre sb y terian congregation of Dissenters in that town, and the exhibition of bigotry and intolerance in his letter to tha bereaved husband on that occasion. It was hoped that the universal reprobation which WWI expressed of his conduct by the neighbourhood and all the more intelligent part of his own congregation, as well as the burst of indignation which it called forth from the general press of the country, would have had its due effect on this misguided man ; and as two of the mem- ben of the same congregation, who have einca died, have been buried in the parish church -yard in e usual manner, it was hoped that the question had been se tht at rest. But be has now again thought fit, on the occasion of the death of Sarah Oerritt, a member, and the pew opener of the same congregation to refuse her interment in the parish church yard with the usual rites of burial. The seven children of the poor woman, all grown up, were unanimous in their wish and determination that their mother should be buried in the same grave as her deceased husband, and several of them, in succession, called on the vicar to uprises such wish, and to urge his compliance ; but he per silted in his refusal, and on Saturday, the 3rd instant, the body of the poor woman was taken to the church yard, followed by her numerous children, and the grave having been opened, was deposited in it, without the presence of the vicar or his curate, and without any service being read over it. The bell was sounded a very few times on the arrival of the corpse at the church-yard, but in so low a tone as showed that it was evidently . meant to be scarcely audible. The Bishop was at Warminster, and at ?dr. Fare's house, the day after Mr. Fans had signified his refusal of the rites of burial, and it scarcely seems possible but that he must have become cognizant of Mr. Fare's in tention, But whether Mr. Fare has acted in defiar.ce of the bishop, or with his sanction, must be matter rather of conjecture than assertion. The matter has been mentioned t two successive boards of guardians, and is again referred to the next meeting, to be then specially considered. They have very justly thought themselves called on, as guardians of the poor, to notice a proceeding so injuriously affecting their rights and feelings." Cbt Ilirautx OLYMPIC.—This theatre was opened on Saturday evening for the winter season. Mr. George Bolton, the lessee, delivered an address, in verse, declaring himself, u heretofore, the champion of the legitimate drama, which is to be the feature of his management. He was enthusiasti cally received by a numerous audience, who were in such high good humour as even to encore the National Anthem, a requisition which was not complied with. The play was " The Hunchback." Its performance was each as completely satisfied the audience, who were no ill judging audience either, and augurs encouragingly for the manager. To measure its merit by a minor theatre stan dard would be scarcely fair, because the company is quite as good as that of any house of the same calibre, but where else can a comparison be found ?—for Sadler's Wells can scarcely be classed at present with third and fourth-rate houses. Suffice it, then, that the performance well deserved the applause bestowed upon it. To begin with the ladies. Julia and Helen were supported respectively by Mrs. Gordon and Mrs. Walter Lacy. The former has been re cently introduced to the London public by Mr. Abingdon, during his management of the Queen's ; and the favourable impression then made was more than borne out on the pre sent occasion. Occasionally injudicious in delivery, her acting is generally natural and graceful. Of the latter less may be said, because more is known. Her impersonation of Helen—her original character—was more than meritorious. It was a fine piece of acting, and considerably im proved since we saw it last. The other characters were supported with more or less success by Mr. Henry Betty, Mr. W. Lacy, Mr. Leigh Murray, ite. To the fi rst-named gentleman, we would recommend a modification of tone and manner in his future delineation of the part entrusted to him. Mailer Walter is rather reserved and cold than violent and gesticulative ; and a loud tone and a swagger are by no means beneficial adjuncts to the author's conception. The comedy was followed by what was really the grand feature of the evening,—the cast upon which the management had evidently staked, if not its life, its reputation, namely, a new burlesque by Mr. George Bolton , entitled " The Civil War of Poetry." It is a satire on the public taste for opera and ballet, to the exclusion of the old dramatists and poets. Although at first the audience were tolerably attentive—being rather puzzled as to what the author was "driving at"—the continuation of the burlesque had so much the aspect of a Christmas pantomime, that they received it with bursts of derisive laughter, enlivened occasionally with hooting and yelling, and cries of " off, off," which occupied the remainder of the representation, a period of some two hours and a half. The subject and leading idea of the piece are, nevertheless, not wholly without merit, and some of the working out not destitute of ingenuity. The faults are gross exaggeration, which extends far beyond extravagance ,• excessive length, and, as far as we could judge, a dearth of paint is the dia logue. It is unfortunate, for the moral object of the piece, that the best part of it is the ballet department, which is conducted and ((reaped with great skill, and executed by highly-accomplished artistes. The music, too, by Mr. Thirlwall, is exceedingly marked and effective. These may save the piece ; which we should not be at all surprised to see announced for repetition. Such a scene of condemnation has become trite a novelty in our theatres ; there has been nothing like it since the celebrated failure of " The Princess who was changed into a Deer," at Drury-lane, which was a most remarkable specimen of its kind. There was a liberal shower of halfpence from the gallery during one part of the performance, by which some injury seems to have been effected—a sovereign being offered for the apprehension of a articular offender.

Jowas.—Thu Consis torial Court of Bristol, of which Dr. Phillimore is Chancel lor, was engaged during the whole of Thursday and Friday in hearing a case, which for many months put had been a prevailing source of gossip among the inhabitants of that city. — Mr. Edward Jones, a gentleman carrying on a large business as a tobacco manufacturer, sought to be divorced from his wife Elizabeth, on the ground of adultery. The wife, by her responsive allegations, charged her husband with having himself committed adultery, and also with acts of cruelty towards her. The case rested principally upon the testimony of cooks, nursemaids, and other domestic ser vants of the family, who described improprieties of which their mistress had been guilty with more than one gentle man. The defence was, that the husband wished to rid himself maintsining his wife: and that the testimony adduced for his charges was unworthy of credit. It was also insisted, that supposing the facts to have been true, he must have known of and connived at his wife's misconduct. Lastly, it was alleged that he had himself been guilty of adultery and cruelty, and that he was therefore not entitled to the divorce for which he prayed. Evidence was produced in support of both charges. Upon that of cruelty, the allegation was that the plaintiff had beaten his wife repeatedly, and had struck her with a poker; but this was denied by several witnesses, who spoke of the plaintiff's treatment of his wife as being uniformly kind, and indulgent to a fault.—After the counsel on both aides had closed their cases, the learned Chancellor said the case was one of considerable importance, and he should take time to consider his judgment. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.—SATURDAT. Before Mr. Commissioner Shepherd. BROLERAO2.—In the case of Dorliey, the particulars of which appeared in our journal of Saturday, the principal question' was as to whether or not Messrs. Ventum were rewgnised brokers of the court.—Mr. Sturgeon, to-day, handed in a printed document which has been posted in this court for a length of time past, signed by the commissioners, and approved of by the Lord Chancellor, by which it ap peared that there were recognised brokers of this court, and that Mr. Ventum was chosen by Sir C. F. Williams. A certain order had been used in argument against the pro position by Mr. Reed, but that was merely an order of the Court of Review.—Bis Honour said, it is necessary that the messenger should take goods and sometimes inventories, but they used to have their own brokers, and it was very proper that brokers should be appointed in whom the court could put confidence. Now that is the way in which I take it that the brokers were appointed.—The original document was afterwards produced. Tiuxo, READING, AND BASINGBTOILE RAILWAY COM PANY.—In this case, which has excited so much of the public attention, a meeting was . held to-day in the Com missioners' private rosm upeturs, for the purpose of examining Fitzhardinge Berkeley, Esq., M.P. for Bristol, who was one of the managers, and also Messrs. Hill and Everill, the solicitors to the Company, touching the posses sion of the minute" and other books containing notices of their transactions.—Mr. James, for the " alleged" bankrupt Company, or in other words, for the witnesses above-named, and who now attended upon summons, contended that as Hill and Everill had a lien upon these books, they were not bound to give them up, and further that the Company was not " bankrupt."—lt may here be added that the principal object of the examination was to ascertain how it arose that the sum of 12,4001. of the Company's money had been depo sited in the Union Bank by Hill and Everill in their own names—Mr. Lawrence, coneys:l, contended at some length that Messrs. Hill and Everill, as officers of the Court (in this case) had no right to set op a valueless lien to the pre judice of the bankrupt's estate —After some further discus sion, the learned commissioner said that from the pressure of usiness in the Court below, he must adjourn the hearing of any further argumert until a future day. BEAN V. JOHNSTON.—This was an adj ourned summons, under the Small Debt. Act. The plainti ff is the landlord of the Greyhound Inn, Croydon, and the defendant is a lady who has been conne ct ed with the affairs of his Serene High ness the Duke of Brunswick, and had been engaged in the action of Valiance it. the Duke of Brunswick, which was tried at the assizes held at the above place about two years since, and while there she contracted a debt of between 121. and 131., which she refused to pay. An action was subse quently brought in the Sheri ff 's Court, Middlesex, where the plaintiff obtained a verdict. The present proceedings were adopted to enable the plaintiff to obtain payment, but were adjourned until to-day, in order that the plaintiff might adduce evidence to show that the I defendant possessed the means of paying. At the ' request of the defendant, summonses were granted against two gentlemen to attend. Mr. Bean said he was labouring under a very great difficulty to show that the defendant could pay the debt. On the last examination the defendant had offered to hand over some papers to show that she was entitled to some property, from which she could pay the debt. His Honour said that the plaintiff must show that the defendant was in a condition to pay.—Mr. Johnston then called Mr. Wainford, a solicitor.— Mr. Harrison, Mr. Wainford's managing clerk, said he at tended to produce a deed. Mr. W ainf ord was at the Judges' Chambers, but would attend in a short time, if required.— Mr. Helling, a solicitor, said he attended to prove that a Mr. Dudley, who was a relative of the defendant, and between 80 and 90 years of age, was, from the shortness of the notice, unable to attend. In answer to various questions from his Honour, Mr. Helling said he did not believe that the defend ant bad any interest in the property she pretended to claim.—The plaintiff said the defendant had admitted to him that she had received money from his Serene Highness, and could obtain more if she wanted it, therefore it was a direct fraud not to pay the debt which she had contracted under the pretence that she was acting on the part of his Serene Highness. The defendant said the last money which she received from his Serene Highness was in January last She was an authoress, and published a work entitled Ellen I and Rorick, but was done out of the money that belonged to her. She then proceeded to attack Mr. Helling in such a manner as to cause him to apply to the court for protection. He attended in his professional capacity, and it was to be regretted for the lake of all parties that the present case came before the public. After a good deal of discussion and attack, his Honour ordered the defendant to pay the amount, when the defendant, who had an immense bundle of news- Ipapers containing reports connected with the case, folded them up and left the court.

Wafts, of 212, Upper Thames-street, who has hitherto pared as a " respect able" butcher, was on Saturday summoned by Mr. Knott, one of the active inspectors of weights and measures for the City, and by whom it was stated by Alderman Copeland thousands of pounds were saved to the community by their activity in preventing the gross abuses that had been proved to exist to an alarming extent bT tradesmen defrauding the hard-working poor, by using weights and measures deficient of the legal quantity, thereby surreptitiously gaining to themselves a profit far exceeding what they are entitled to, and thereby defeating the fair and honest trader. In the present case the defendant was summoned for having in his peleeleiOn and use a weighing-machine one ounce deficient against tke purchaser, and also for using abusive language to the ofilcer.—Mr. Knott, in proving the deficiency, saidthat the machine was used for the purpose of weighing mutton chops, and email quantities of meat, so that the poor (of which there were many in that neighbourhood) were deprived of one ounce out of four. On his calling on the defendant and tingre with him, he abused him very4mesly, and told him to do his best or worst, and be off.—Defendant denied he made use of the words imputed to him; he was not aware the machine was wrong, as he had been out of town, and he was sure his servant would not wilfully have used the scales in that state.—Mr. Knott produced a letter from Mr. Raymond, one of the inquest of the ward, showing that defendant's scales had been found wrong in August last, and exonerating the officer in what he had done.—Alderman Kelly, after consulting Sir J. Duke, strongly animadverted on the conduct of tradesmen generally inficting such gross oppression upon the poor. It was the bounden duty of the magistrates to protect the poor from the extortions of trades men; the present was a gross ease, inasmuch as defendant's man first attended the summons and stated that defendant was out of town, but upon his Insisting neon the defendant • he was at once found. In addition to the offence, e officer was abused and insulted. The defendant was then fined as. and cost. TIIII S cIrHoiaLD NULIANCI. —Mr. R. G.

EARLY ArraNDANCI OF Maoiternarss--An order has been received front the Secretary of State, requesting that the magistrates in all the Metropolitan Police Courts shall take their seats on the bench at ten o'clock, instead of at half-put as heretofore. Compliance with this order was commenced on Saturday. GUILDHALL.—THE Cwancia or BlOANlT.—William Witt, described as a dentist, living in High Holborn, appeared before Mr. Aldermaa Wood, for re-examination on aer of having unlawfully contracted a marriage with Elixa Ann Hill, his former wife being then alive.—Miss Hill, the prisoner's alleged second wife, was then called. She knew the prisoner five years before she was married to him. likewaaengagedtobimtwelve months previous to their union. produced a Pipet% nurn o = her death.—Mr. Alderman Wood : Whet were his repre tohis?-r'rbee°ntsij:erennwedi°fenbtot°yEbnrilFvaneh.ld7Hfwoertyasu"latives, wninfi sentations when you married him Wi tness: He described himself to be • wid.wer.—The man Earle was then celled, but he wno not t'.! :mind. A clerk in Mr. Hobler's office informed the alderman that he desired him to be in waiting at the Guildhall Coffee-house. He was there about half an hour previous, but he had left; no one knew where. Mr. Ballantine observed that it was evident he feared an exposure, which probably he knew would take plaoe. Notwithstanding what his learned friend had said about this Mr. Earle, his character was well known. He was a gentleman that lived by his wits, and no doubt made a profitable thing by embarking in various schemes with dif ferent names. No doubt, he would be very successful in forming a society for the apprehension of thieves, from the fact of his having been once in that line himself. In addi tion, however, to being the inventor of this new system of police, tke manager of several theatres in America, and the dabbler in the pickling trade, by which he got the 601., he would have shown from his own mouth, had he not have shuffled out of court, that in 1831 he travelled through the country under the name of W. Reece Hare, delivering lec tures on the character and progress of the Asiatic cholera. (Laughter.) Mr. Alderman Wood certainly thought those remarks tended to show that not much reliance could be placed in the testimony of such a character. The whole case rested upon the evidence of Earle, and the question was, after what he had admitted, would a jury believe him ? He was of opinion that they would not, and therefore It was useless to send the case for trial.—Accordingly, the accused was di MARLBOROUGH STREET.—PROPESSIONAL MORAL ITY.—Afr. B. Tempk, un., ironmonger,. Princes-street, Cavendishutuare, was c h arged with having committed a violent assault on Mr. F. Samwell, a medical gentleman of Margaret-street, Cavendish-square. Mr. Samwell said he was walking in Portland-street, about half an hour before, when he was suddenly struck on the face by some one whom he did not immediately recognise. The blow was followed up by other blows, and he at last took refuge in a tobacco nist's shop, and then gave his assailant into custody. Not a word was addressed to him either before or while the assault was taking place, but complainant soon became aware that the defendant—a gentleman whom he knew very well—was the individual who was beating him.—Mr. Hardwick : Was nothing said to you by the defendant ?—Complainant : Nothing.—Defendant : Speak the truth.—Complainant : I didn't hear any words.—Defendant : Did I not say to you, " Now, you villain, I have got you, and I will pay you out for seducing my wife ? "—Complainant : I did not hear those words, and I deny the charge contained in them.—A gentleman, named Mitchell, said he was with Mr. Samwell when the defendant struck him. The attack was so sudden that he really was at a loos how to act at the mo ment.—Mr. Hardwick asked the defendant what he had to allege in explanation of his conduct ?—Defendant ; I had cause for what I did ; I have good proof that since February last that man has had an improper intimacy with my wife. I have got my wife's letters acknowledging it. As soon as I learned what bad occurred, I determined to give him a good drubbing. I went to his house and gave him sundry blows there. I did not meet the man again until this morning ; when I did see him. I went up to him to re taliate upon him the injury he has inflicted on me. There he stands, and he cannot deny what I have said.—Mr. Temple, sen., begged to be allowed to say a few words. The person at the bar is my son ; the complainant is Dr. Samwell, a medical man, who has attended my family for years, and who is well known and bears a high characterin Marylebone, in which parish I have resided for the last 40 years. Dr. Sam well has attended my son's wife, and the greatest confidence was reposed in him. I never was more astonished than when I heard the charge against him of seducing my son's wife. I cannot justify my son's conduct, but I can excuse his feel ings. Dr. Samwell has completely broken up h:s home and happiness. My son's wife has contessed to her sister that Dr. Ssmwell has repeatedly had connexion with her. She says Dr. Barnwell gave her some kind of wine that over powered her. I hope to God the charge is not true ; but I am bound to say the wife has confessed all.—Dr. Samweil : I distinctly deny the charge . — Defendant : Did you not give my wife a ring —Complainant : I shall say nothing, except that I have been violently assaulted, and I expect to be as- I 'suited again, and therefore claim the protection of the law. —Defendant: Is he not bound to answer the question about the ring ?—Mr. Hardwick No. The case before me is for an assault. The evidence shows that an assault has been committed, and I must, therefore, call on you to find bail to answer the charge at the sessions. LAMBETH.—BUILDINO SOCIETIEB.—Last evening Mr. John Day, the vestry clerk of the parish of St. George, Southwark, and President of the West and South Metropo litan Building Association, applied to Mr. Norton for his assistance in procuring the restoration of some books and papers, detained by the late secretary and managing director of the company. Mr. Day stated that the directors of the company of which he was president, having had occasion to find fault with their secretary, and who was also the ma naging director, they had formally discharged him front his situation ; but he, notwithstanding, detained some books and documents belonging to the Association, and which were necessary to carry on its concerns. He (Mr. Day) felt bound at the same time to state that, since his dismissal from his situation, the secretary had made a claim upon the directors for salary alleged to be due to him, and on their refusal to com ply with his demand, he served them with notice of action.— Mr. Norton : What is the amount of property to which these books and papers relate ?—Mr. Day: I should say that the amount of subscriptions received may be altogether 3001. Mr. Norton: In that case I have no jurisdiction in the mat ter. I cannot assist you. The Act of Parliament confines our jurisdiction to property to the amount of 151. alone ; and u the books and papers in your case relate to property far exceeding that amount, I cannot interfere.—Mr. Day : We have reason to suppose that our late secretary has received money for which he has not accounted.—Mr. Norton : If he has done so, he has committed an act of embezzlement, for which you can give him into custody. There may, however, be some difficulty in establishing a case of embezzlement, as the party . alleges that there is some salary due to him. All I can do is to send an officer with you to the party, and he, perhaps, may give up the books and documents without fur ther trouble.—Mr. Day expressed his thanks to the worthy magistrate, mid said he would try the experiment. THAMES.—Gaoss ASSAULT ON A POOR OLD WOMAN.— Mr. Joseph Pilgrim, formerly proprietor of the Barley Mow public-house, New Gravel-lane, was charged with the following gross assault on a poor old woman named Eleanor Peek, who gains • scanty livelihood by hawking band boxes, fie., through the streets. The complainant stated that on Saturday week, as she was coming from her home, Old-road, Stepney, whilst passing near the church, the de fendant turned the corner, and drove on at a very rapid rate in his chaise. He stopped to put up at the Green Dragon, when the complainant said it was a shame for him to drive so furiously, and put people's lives in danger. He at once called her a thieving cadger, and threatened, if she did not go about her business, he would horsewhip her. She re plied, " I am no thief, and you are no gentleman," when, without more ado, he jumped out of the chaise, and, giving her a violent blow with his fist in the side, pushed her down with the other hand, the arm which was under her being almost broken. The shock was so violent that she was ren dered almost senseless. Two respectable women picked her up, and one of them assisted her home.—Mrs. Elizabeth Franklin, a respectable housekeeper, confirmed the com plainant's statement, adding, that she thought the poor woman was killed by the blow and the fall—it was as if one were about to knock down • bullock.—Mrs. Hudson also witnessed the assault. —The defendant, who took notes cross-examined the witnesses with an air of great I acumen, which, however, did not make much To! his def ence.—Mr. Thomas Donahoo, surgeon, of White hens-street, Stepney, examined the comp l ainant the day alter she sustained the injury. There were severe contasions on her hips and several other plans, accompanied by difilculty of breathing and palpitation of the heart. She was extremely M. The prisoner denied the assault, and said the complainant followed him to his stables, loading him with the foulest abuse. When he was about to close the gate of the chaise-house she tried to force her way in. He put out his hand to prevent her, and she Brodenp, considering the assault as one of too serious a nature to be dealt with summarily, held the defend ant to bail to answer the charge at the INSSIORS. HAMMERSMITH.—Ase•tmr rze A Suirmax.—Mr. Hassell, a medical practitioner, of Notting-hill, appeared to answer a summons for having assaulted Mary Anne 'rutin, who deposed that she owed the defendant a bill of 11. ls., for attending her child (sines deceased), for which he had sent her • lawyer's letter. On the 7th inst. she went to him, and told him she thought items very sharp practice ; that she thought he was not treating her properly ; and that he had not meted we to her child while he attended it Defen dantismied bmetg murdered her child, ee she said, and I made net ofemes vmy vulgar language towards her in re- Aimee Is the letter. Upon that he - put on his hat, sad seising bid of her by the arms, he forced her out of the end threw her violently into the street, by whisk bar was cut. That was the assault complained of. Osage More corroborated in some partieulan the evi -1 deem of the complainant The defendant, in mower to the charm said he Its decease he sent in his hill. The oompleinant accused him of having imndered her and. mead he soother alawyer's letter. On the ressipt elemmeteltim, and abased him in his surgery. He ordered bra est, hat the continued her abuse, threatening Ida that his rime should appear in ell the newspapers. He then put bee eat of the house, using no more violence than was neeemary ; but in doing so she tripped her foot over the sill of the door.— Edward Miller, defendant's assistant, deposed that he was in the surgery, and heard an altercation between the de fendant and complainant, and thinking it was a private matter, he went out into the adjoining room. He heard her accuse Mr. Hassell with murdering her child, and also heard him her set.—Mr. Paynter said be could not see what the wonted's going to the defendant's home. if it woo not to both bison she dill not go to pay him. She had, however, gone there, and insulted the de fendant, by charging hint with a criminal offence; yet that did not justify the improper remark which the defendant had made to the complainant, and which, as • medical man, he must ever lament having used; but it justified the defendant in turning her out of Isis house, provided that he did not use more violence than was neccesary. According, however, to the evidence of Moore, the defendant had used more than unnecemary violence, for which he must fine the defendant 40s. and amts.—Defendant immediately paid the amount. MONEY MARKET. SATURDAY ETINING. The Stock Market lost something of the activity to-day which was apparent yesterday. So far as speculative dealing, however, there is usually little on this particular day of the week, as jobbers prefer rather to contract than to extend their open accounts with a day intervening before the recommencement of business, and the possible chance there fore of anything politically unfavourable to their operations arri ucul va g ls re lurin ived g b w y hi t c h h e th " e c i urre cuul tice d haavtewouoirp or opportunity stopping the mischief by, as it is technically termed, turning their accounts. Consols were rather fiat at a decline to 941 to 5 for money, and 951 sellers for time. Exchequer Bills, 13s. to 16s. premium. Reduced Threes, 941 to 1. Three-and-a- Quarter per Cents., 951 to I. Long Annuities, 91 to 15-16. The transactions in the foreign market have chiefly been in Mexican, but they consisted of small unimportant amounts. The prices fluctuated between 231 to 1, buyers and sellers alternately, and theyclosed at 231 to 1. The announced de parture of certain agents from the committee of Spanish bondholders to Paris, with ultimate destination to i d of one of the party at least, with a view to urge the claims of the bondholders upon the discreditable government of Isturitz, led to a little movement in Spanish bonds, which improved, the Fives, to 261 to 71 ; the Threes, to 371 to 8; the Deferred remaining 17 to 4; Pa live, 51 to 6.

Money was extremely easy on the Stock Exchange, and the rates as low as 2 per cent. The Bank of England avenges far the week ending the 10th instant give, as compared with the returns for the week preceding, the following results: arculadm—lssue £29,078,135 Chealation—Active 20,772,350 Public &podia 9,801,402 Other &pails Goversnalialsorkleain BseldnDserelawat. 1%981,360 Oaf mumelliss 15,227,663 Cola awl balks 7 &yawl attar bills ... 938,723 The Rest 3,383,158 The large decline in the Rest may be attributed te the payments of Bank salaries, and of the half-yearly dividends on Bank Stock, of which the 10th was the opening day. The stock of specie and bullion was still falling away, whilst, on the reverse, the circulation active, or notes in the hands of the public, was in increase. The dimi nution of the Rest referred to will explain, however, why with an inflow of notes on general deposit account, and against metallic values withdrawn, the active circulation should still be in advance. The small increase of public deposits was partly the usual consequence in this and the preceding week of the cessation of the periodical collections and payments of revenue, which determined with the quarter ; partly also, perhaps, of an interception to a certain extent, and appropriation, by the government to peculiar exigencies, such as those of Ireland. Correct, or not, the fact is not of much significance. It will be seen that in "other" securities there was still an augmentation, though of much inferior import, upon the extraordinary excess of the week preceding. The rise of prices in various commodities, more especially in corn and cotton, and the greater activity of commercial transactions, will have something to do doubtless with the greater aggregate mass of value represented by these securities. No small amount of these securities would consist without doubt of Exchequer Bills purchased or advanced upon. The rate of premium:at which these bills have been maintained in the face of grow ing ismes, and of declining prices of the funds, would seem to favour the conclusion that the Bank must be a large holder. It is probable that the payment of dividends has since afforded the usual profitable opportunity for disposing of a portion of these bills, which are always a favourite temporary resource for capital waiting mere eligible or per manent means of investment. . Suggestions were thrown out last week under this head, that the large decrease of metallic values ob servable in the Bank returns then published might be the result of exportation, notwithstanding the state of the foreign exchanges, which apparently would leave such an operation without benefit. The embarrassed position of foreign money marts, such as of Berlin, Vienna, and other parts of Germany, seemed, however, to render it by no means improbable that the state, as in the case of the Berlin bank, might deem it proper to take action in aid of the monetary and banking pressure, even at a certain seeming sacrifice, by a combina tion with capitalists, home or foreign, for importing so much hard money in bulk. Within the last few months, moreover, some of the smaller German ststes have, as it is known, been contacting loans of various amounts,"which in the aggregate would represent a considerable sum. The disappearance of specie and bullion from the Bank to the extent of more than 400,0001. on average in one week only, would make it by no means incredible that such exporting operations had been in progress, and even were at the date of the present returns, which show a continued abstraction of more than half the same amount The deficiencies noted of hard money were and are other wise accounted for in other quarters. It is assumed that a vast addition was required, along with Bank paper, for the of country circulation, beyond the capacity of issuing banks to answer with their own restricted issues. Heavy payments for mortgage interests, wages, &c., are said to be more specially payable in the September quarter in the country. It does not, however, satisfactorily appear on what foundations such assumptions repose. It is difficult to un derstand why mortgage interests should more exclusively fall due at Michaelmas than at any other quarter of the year; or even why wages, other than harvest, should be in excess at the same time. Although it is probable that additional rail ways might then be in progress, yet the shorter days begin ning would hardly absorb so much money weekly as long days and overtime. In manufacturing district. short-time working was partially also the order of the day. Little or no additional strain upon the country circulation can therefore be conclusively charged on those heads, the " Country Banker" writing from Norfolk notwithstanding. The simple fact should rather be, that the advance in tke prices of corn and provi sions required the extra exhibition of so much greater money value for precisely the same bulk of commodities at the lower prices previously ruling. The country banker was called upon for 20 per cent. more of notes to cover 20 per cent. of rise in prices. Here is the whole secret of the increased country circulation required and put forth in the corn-growing if not in other localities. As November (Mar tinmiss) and December come round, there may be, and in the usual course should be, extra requirements of local circulation for the payment of agricultural rents. That higher prices of produce were and are at the root of the increased isms of country banks, is in evidence from the fact that such increase of issues was already in progress more than one month before Michael- DM day, as the returns of the Norfolk and Lincoln banks, representing almost purely agricultural constituencies, will testify. Most of them had not issued to the full of their fixed amount, even according to the last returns, as we be lieve, writing from recollection, for we have not the Gazette before us. In such circumstances, a supply of Bank of Eng. land notes for circulation may have been partially wanted in cams where the fixed sum of issue was approached, or was exceeded, by some banks; but it would be extremely absurd to assume that in the space of one week, or even two, an excels of Bank note issues for 683,475/., and a with drawal of 407,7261. in specie, should be required, and ac counted for on the plea that country banks wanted so much more for the payment of mortgage interests, WWII. &c., &c. The " Country Banker "is rather a wild man of his order, for he does not hesitate to speak of millions of Bank of England circulation and specie being occasionally required in aid of the country banks for such purposes, The most wary watchers for years of home and foreign money markets, and of banking movement., will hesitate to draw decided conclusions from the isolated facts of short periods, and to attribute consequences of magnitude to causes diminutively disproportionate. The apparent facts of one week, indeed, are often contradicted by those of the next. A very large excess of Bank of England circulation some two months ago was accompanied with a contraction of coun try bank issues, or at least no expansion at all. We are no believers in the entire infallibility of Sir Robert Peel's late banking and currency measures, which have hitherto had fine summer trial sailing only of prosperous exchanges for months. We shall have better faith when they have wea thered, if they can weather, some twenty months of unfa vorable foreign exchange, each as we have had heretofore. But in the meantime let them have fair play. It is not necessary, in pursuit of an adverse theory or opinion, to be construing every incident of the day, whether of little or much import, as the necessary result, and in damage ot, them sisalares, rlimeremmex.—Ai the quoted= pekes In the official Ma whir& Mem saw am et mimeo milt - ese *Veil above, It mar be as tail W emirde Set Ile Mid MI ady rote the prime at which triamatieeelave lelme int et the tiortuatioes noted, each tioduatka a artier of traaeacticoo.

RAILWAY NEWS. There was a favourable market on Saturday, with improving prices in the shares and scrips of several lines. The purchases for investment appear to have been more con siderable than on any other day since the revival of active business, and the orders at limits are reported to be more numerous still. Brighton, Midlands, South Wales, Andes. Cambridge and Oxfords, Leicester and Bedfords, gate., and Rielimonds, Dutch Rhenish and East Indians, are inquired for, mostly at improved prices, and all firm. The business in the Liverpool share market was limited, but the tone was talse. l . l . Midland 40/. duns. vane...l ih pm. London and North-Western stock was also firm, and the quarters and fifths a shade better. Ambergates improved Ito 1 discount. Ormskirks closed 3to 3i. North Staffordshire.' opened dull, but dosed 11, buyers. Hudders field and Manchester improved again to 1 to 11, and, the stock being scarce, may go still higher. The Manchester market remained in a dull and inactive state. Prices had a downward tendency. Little business was done at Birmingham, and it was chiefly confined to the lines of the district. There were sales in the B' • ham and Oxford Junction at 31 p. • Birmingham, Wolver pion, arid Dudley, at 2/ p. ; Nort h Staffordshire., at 1/ p. ; Shrewsbury and Birmingham, at I p. ; West Riding Union, at 11, and Shropshire Union, 1 die. At Leeds the market for shares was the dullest that has occurred during the week ; yet, though the business was trilling, the fluctuations were almost as numerous as we have had to note on larger business days. East Lancashires declined 3.. 9d., and West Riding Unions also receded a shade • but Huddersfield and Manchester, Manchester, Leeds: and Dewsbury Branches, and Leeds and Think, advanced 2e. 6d. per share each. The Bristol share market was dull, but without any ma terial decline of prices.
