FRANCE. tenon on owe connerormon.) PARIS. San'ILDAT A new question, and one which occupies a pod deal of public attention to-day, is what fresh annexation France is likely to claim as a counter poise to the purrible annexation of Sicily to Pied mont. A statement in the Lofipendance, that the Emperor personally told Lord Cowley that in the given eventuality be should require " some thing " is supper.' to have contributed materially to the heavy fall at the Bourse noticed below. It kart been very much remarked that the Par, which was at first wild with rage against Garibaldi, just like the Patrie, has now considerably changed itd tone. It does not yet openly approve of his expedition, but says that all its correspondence predicts its success, and it i s ki n d enoug h to add I that whatever may be the result there will be no branch of the existing friendly relations between France and England. There are people who go so fat as to say that the French Emperor, relying, I suppose, upon the " compensation," whatever that nosy be, which he means to have, is at this moment as little opposed in reality to the success of Garibaldi's Lesion as Victor Emmanuel himself may be sup posed to be. The Pageterresponclence admits that the prestige of Garibaldi'' name upon the !WWI is truly extraordinary, and it offers as an excuse for Oount Cavour's alleged connivance with his em barkation that it would have been impossible to bave prevented it without a collision between the general's volunteers and the Genoa police. It really appears from the following proclamation to the " Soldiers of Italy," which appears in the florricr. .If•rrantale, that the King had need 14 his influence to keep the Piedmoutese army within the bounds of discipline: doidiers of Italy, —For many age. discord and wont of disciplase moral • mares of misfortune to our country. At premed the concord which animates the people from Sicily to the Alps is admirable. But the cation is still wanting , b/ICiplia. ; and it relies upon you, who have set such an admindile example both of virtue and valour, to reorganise itself. and oppose • coca front to those who would aohost it. Lie Dot, ars, disband, young mai! You, the remaant of the battles fought for mar country, recollect that even in the north we have enemies as well as brethrea stall in bondage, and that the people of the south, once freed from the mercenaries of the Pope and of the Bourbon, will rangers your orderly sad martial training, in order to he fit to De,' greater struggles. I therefore, in the name of the nen. aux country, reamsnisad the youths who adorn the ranks of the brave army mot to abandon them, bat to rally more than ever round their brave officers and that Ve tor. she's leavery may for a moment be weakened by pusillanimous advisers, but who will ant lasg hesitate to had us to definitive victory. Onistret GAIIHIALDI. An extract from a private letter written by Gari baldi makes the following extraordinary dis closure I was on the point of making the King acquainted with my project. He himself admitted to me, with the admix.. sage franker., which distinguishes him, that in order to attain unity Italy required to be freed from the rotten We) ways of ministerial diplomacy. I did not go further foe the moment. I did mean to tell him all about it a few asp before my departure, but I must have gape to Bodges to see him, and I really had not the time. Ilesidea. I thought it more prudent on the whole to keep the secret from him. Be would have prevented me from going forward, and I could not have meted an order from such an unique and prefect King (mose° e per*to). I conld not think without reimport upon the fact that the Sicilians had been waiting for as for a month, and 1 overruled every other ccusideni. iltni to 11, to their succour. The Cannier du Diesarichs says that as soon as the news of Garibaldi's departure from Genoa was known in Paris St Thouvenel wrote despatches both to Baron Talleyrand, the French minister at Turin, and Chevalier Nigra, the Sardinian minister at Paris. The substance of these despatches was as follows .—M. ?hoarsest' had no hesitation in stating that the Emperor's government bad been painfully affected by the news of Garibaldi's expe dition Without in any way meaning to hold the Sardinian government as directly responsible for this in every way regretable event, M. Thouvenel could not but consider that it was due to " most extraordinary negligence" on its part. After draw vitriking picture of the calamities likely to result from Garibaldi's adventure, he calls upon Count Carrier for full and frank explanations. These explanation, have been given. Count Ca your declares that he as strong ly disapproves of , Garibaldi' s ex p e diti on an 1 ourencl osn do. The King's government has done all that it reason ably could do to prevent it. Count Caronr Lcd not neglected any of the hints which M. Thouvenel had been kind enough to mend from Paris on the subject. Garibaldi had yi.dded to his remonstrance'', and bad promised to defer his departure for Sicily. The news that his expedition had actually embarked was as great a surprise to Count Cavour as to M. Thouvenet It would, therefore, be most unjust to bold the Sardinian government responsible for the rash act of Garibaldi Count Cavour adds that the King's government had stopped the second expedition which was to have followed Garibaldi. He therefore relies upon the equitable feeling od M. Thoovenel not to infer that there is the least ! solidarity between the circumspect and moderate! policy of the Sardinian government and the adven turous projects of Garibaldi. The Coorrier thinks it may affirm that the Yrencl government has expressed itself satisfied with !he above explanations. At the Bourse the Rente suffered the heavy fall rd 36c. for cash and 40c. for account, closing at' 69.99 in each case. Mobilier fell 6.25. Railways were comparatively firm, and only declined to the extent of 3f. or 41. The Minister of the Interior has prohibited the publication of an engraving designed by M.

The report of the oommiesioninted to inquire into the principles which should resta te the defences of the colonies, has been pablithead. commission con misted of Mr. Gene A. Hamilton, Mr. John Robert Godley, and Mr. T. Frederick Elliot. The first two gentle. men sign the report, the third doss not agree with it en. tirely. and appends a memorandum. The commissioners who sign the report say that the colonies of Great Britain may be said, speaking genesally, to have been free from the obligation of contributing, saber by personal service or mucky payment, towards their own defences—a state of things which they believe to have no parallel or precedent in the am of any other organised community of which the history is known. They en law • good deal on this, and then state the general prin. espies on which they thick alterations on the existing system should be based. These am to the effect that colonies should contribute to the expenses of their own &team The emonasioners p pose to divide the colonies (so called) into two classes. Th e lest elms would consist of military posts, in which, for objects altogether independent of and distinct hem the defence of the particular countries in which they sue agitated, the imperial government thinks it necessary to maintain . The 'mod clam would con= m the rest 01 o ?klailat that le r all those where troops are statimed primarily, if not asively, for the defence of the hem. liberties, and properties of their inhabitants. They =that, as regards these colonies, the system of de should be founded on two simple principles—colonial ramegement and joint contribution at a uniform rate. The imperial goverment should call upon each colony to decide on the nature of its own defences, and the amount of ite swigs, and should offer to assist it by bearing a share ' of Ike entire cost. It seem to the commissioners essentisl that this arrangemeet, if adopted at all, should be uniformly applied. If it were adopted some colonies might choose to form a militia, or to bare corps enlisted for local service, like e. g. the " Oinediaa Riles." In these cam they would impales tied pay their forces as they waled think fit, and the imperial contributions would be paid into the colcaial exchequer without farther reference than would be necessary to satisfy our selves that they were expended in accordance with the agreement. Other colonies might prefer being garrisoued by troops of the line, end paying their Used share of the Mire expense of lath troops. In these cases the imperial would first consider whether it could ewe = l7B and would assure itself that the number asked for ens si;Mciant for its purpose, and not open to the objections tibia exist to small and scattered garrisons, and also that the lons would be adequately provided for as regards pay, ellownewee, and barracks ; and it would only send the troops in ems of Wire being no objection on an y o f thee* It would mho be ne,smary to have a clear understanding that all troops so sent would be at the disposal of the am pedal goverment, in case any emergency should require them to be withdrawn. EXTRAORDINAJIT Ar MURDER - 11D - iirieibi. Great excitement has naturally y been occasioned as Winchester by the ciradstioa of the intelligence that at an early hour on Saturday seeming an attempt at murder had been made in that city by a soldier, who indicted • dreadful wound with a ream on the person of a female with wham he had cohabited, and immediately afterwards stisarpted self.destructioa by similar means. The waft extraordinary circumstance in connexion with the arra is that it smears to be a question whether the parties, either while in a stare of intoxication or affected by some maudlin sentimentality, had mutually agreed to put as end to their respective lives, or whether the eddisr attempted the murder of his unfortunate corm Meswho now endesvours apparently to screen from the criminal consequences of the dreadful set. The brief facts ascertained by our correspondent are that Robert Simpson, a private in the lit lattilion of the 60th Rides. and Sophia Rowe, a prostitute, proceeded on Friday night to the Painters' Arms. an Sussex-street, Winchester, where they passed the night together; that about levee o'clock on Saturday morning Simpson cut the you woman's throat with a fluor, sod inflicted injuries of so dreadful a nature that it is extremely doubtful whether she will recover, the medical gen..lemen considering her cue to be an almost hopeless one ; arid that Simpson then endea voured to terminate his own existence by cutting his threat, but did ant succeed to any very serious extent.

The plaintiff drew, for some time, one pound a week, and afterwards more, the employment continuing down to July, 1886 ; and he now claimed a considerable balance beyond the sum paid, on account of his share of the profits.

The testator, Joel Handford, late of Hayfield, Derby shire, died on the 13th at April, 1849.

THE CASE OF THE REV. MR. HATCH. Mr. Edwin James then proceeded to reply upon the whole case in a most able and powerful speech, which was listened to with the utmost attention throughout. He said that the verdict the jury would now shortly have to immunee would clove one of the most remarkable ewe that hod perhaps ever been investigated in a wart et jusllos. His learned friend bad truly told them that Mr. Hatch bad stood at the bar of this oceal, and was =Meted by the jury of indecently assaulting them two girls, and that the learned judge who tried Wm, had dose es he was bound to do in seek • ere, and, mdsr such air• esstanese, sentenced him to bur yews' imprisoa meet and hard Wooer. Yr. Hatch sew mate before another gory to acenplain the the farmer verdict had teen obtained by false evidence • that, in point of fact, the course of rice had bees perverted, and on this ground to ask the nry to reverse the decision that had been formerly come to. ben Mr. Hatch stood at that bar on the former trial, and after his conviction, he made the remarkable statement that he was innocent, end that be felt aasured the day would come when God would prove his innocence of the crime laid to his charge, and he believed that the day had now come when their verdict would confirm his statement. He need not inform them that the effect of the former verdict was not only to destroy the immediate prospect, of Mr. Hatch, but that in point of fact he might as well be deprived of existence, and be admitted that the object of the present prosecution was to show that he had been un tlatlycoovicted and to reverse the former decision. His Mead had made a great many observations upon the fact that the witnesses who had now been examined ware not called on the former occasion. He had the highest opinion of the ability of his learned friend Serjesnt tine, who appeared for Mr. Hatch on that occasion, and he had no doubt that he exercised a sound discretion upon the facts then before him, and the instructions he had received, in not calling edam*. ; but was a man to be considered guilty of a crime because his counsel did not think proper to call witnesses? The jury would also re collect that one scene of the foul oonspireoy was the bedroom of Mr. and Mn. Hatch, and that no idioms could have been celled to rove this portion of the statement. The case of his learned friend, as it appeared to him, wee full of the most glaring inconsistencies. With one breath Mra Hatch was represented to be • virtuous and respecta ble woman against whom there did not rest the slightest eumicion, and with the next she wan represented to have been the deepest accomplice of her husband, and she was charged with direct perjury. The child was actually made to say that Mrs. Batch, wife of the party accused, was present upon one when these abominations were going on, and that she actually saw what occurred. When • case rested upon such evidence as this be asked them as reescoable and sensible men whether they could rely upon it, and whether the whole stricture of this wretched story had not been completely shattered in the course of the investigation? His learned friend had made a great many comments upon Mr. Hatch having adopted the course of procuring • number of statutoryions, and has having submitted them to the Secre tary of State with a view to obtain a pardon, but what was he to do ! He had gone to his dungeon, he had no appeal allowed him by law, he could not call his wife as a witness, and what coluve was possibly open to him but to obtain the solernm declaration of every human being who was in his house at the time and who witnessed what occurred, to show that he wee not guilty of the crime of which he had been unjustly convietel. These witnesses, or the greater part of them at all events, had no interest in the matter. Mae were the servant., there was the 'overawe, a highly respectable young lady whom position entirely depended upon her eha. raster and her regard for veracity and honour—there were the two French ladies, also peen= of great respectability— /ad all these witnesses led given evidence showed conclusively that Mr. Hatch Gould not have been guilty et the offence that was imputed to him by Eugenia Plummer upon d the first ocemioa of her going to the school. the jury believe for a moment that these re spectable witnesses were guilty of perjury ? There was not the slightest foundation for such a suggestion, end he hoped to be obis to satisfy them that those witnesses had spoken the truth, and that the story that hod been told by the children had been trumped up by their mother, and that from some trifling 'circumstance originally serrated by Eugenia Plummer, it had been swelled and magnified to the Aortal accusation; that were ultimately made. It had bee irked by his learned friend what motive coald have actuated these children to make such • charge, but be should show them presently that there was ample motive for their doing so, from the admission of one of the children hereell. ' Serjeant fithee, in his address to them, had said that this was not the first time in which it had been proved that • clergy man of the church of England had been ooa violet] of • Grimed this ileeeriptiim This was undoubtedly true, bat the observe. than applied equally to Roman catholic ministers and to miniaters of all religious denominations, and to all profes. 'lona Was this the first time, however, that they had heard of wicked designing children making false charges, sad did they not know that there were instances in which men's lives had actually been nearly sacrificed upon the evidence of children, which had bean afterwards proved to be West He believed that the statement of the children in this case was • lie—" guilt's offspring and its guard "--and that the whole superstructure of the accusation against Mr. Hatch was bused upon falsehood, end that this was the real =of the present ease. As to motive, why the gal , when she was examined at Wandsworth Polio, Court, let out the whole secret—" she did not like the Hatches "—she wanted to get away, and she told her mother something likely to effect that object. He asked than to look at the gross and glaring improbability of the stony itself. They were asked to believe that a gentleman who had for more than forty year" enjoyed the esteem sad respect of every oue who knew him—a clergymea—bad so far forgotten every principle of honour and decency, as to commit an assault upon • child, a perfect stmger to him, jest admitted under his roof, almost under the very shadow of her pa Dia, and the innocent child, Lucy Hatch, his adopted daughter, was actually represented to be a sharer in the abominable proceeding. Could such • thing be possible ! It could not—it was unworthy belief! The learned serjeant bad told them that these two girls bad been carefully and religiously tenet spin the fear el God, but was this so? It ap oi them wee beptised until she was eight years old, and her mother admitted clearly that she was not in the bait of taking her children regularly to church. With reprd to Mrs. Plummer they bad seen her, and could judge what sort of woman she was, and he thought they would agree with him that she wee a most extraordinary sort of person, and her conduct in the witnees-box led to no other maishaica than that she was either intoxicated or muff** from delirium tremens. The learned counsel then commented at some length upon the evidence and demeanour of Mrs. Plummer, and on the contra dictions and discrepancies in her testimony, and he urged that there could be very little doubt that it was at her in *drake the children had been induced to make up the tale they bad done. if the first accusation to which he bad alluded was really too monstrous to be true, and the jury should ems to that conclusion, he said it appeared to him them was an end of the case, for if they did not believe one portion of the story, bow co uld they place reliance upon any part of Mt Then with regard to the evidence of the younger child, that Mrs.illatch law what was going on upon one occa sion. Good God! was it possible to place any reliance upon such • statement ? Was it sot repugnant to 'human nature and manifestly false ? With regard to the conduct of Mr. Hatch after the accusation had been made against him, be thought it ought not to operate at all against him. No man could tell what owneeles would takeundersucheircumstances, and it was clear that his mind was borne down, and thathe was overwhelmed by his position, and did not know what to do. The learned counsel, after some further observatioess, said that to Mr. Hatch the result of this inquiry was of vital importance, while so far as the defendant was she 'would merely be liable to some trilling punishment. Ma learned friend had appealed to them on her behalf, on the ground that she was an heiress of fifteen or twenty thousand pounds, but what did it matter to the jury whether she were rich or poor ? He was sure they would do their duty firmly, and that the same justice would be done to her as to the poor creature who stood at that tar for having dashed his hand through • glittering shop window to save his famished offspring. The learned counsel then said he called upon the jury to do their duty firmly, and he con cluded by saying that he prayed the God of justice and of truth, to whom they had perhaps already breathed the same prayer, to guide them aright in this great argument, and direct them to a just conclusion. There was a loud burst of applame when the learned counsel resumed his sett, which was not repressed without some difficulty. A short discussion then took Owe between the learned j o u t l d and the jury as to whether the case should be pro with or whether it should be adjourned. Baron Channell said he was quite reedy to promed with his summing up if the jury wished him to do so, but be reminded them that the morrow would be Sunday, and that he had no power to discharge them until they gave • verdict. Some of the jury ware for going on, but others were anxious to adjourn, and at length Mr. Baron Channell mid it was a very important case, and he thought it would be better to postpone his summing op until Monday. The trial was accordingly again adjourned. THIRD COURT. (Before the Common Berjeent.) William Franria Vandervei I, who last session pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with h• appropri ated certain shares intim London,Brighton, and South Coast Railway Company, of which ha was trustee, surrendered. The primmer now came up for judgment ; another indict ment against him being withdrawn. Mr. Metcalfe said there were peculiar circurestaeces about the position of the prisoner in this case which induced the prosecution to beg that the Court would deal mercifully with the prisoner, as he had done all in his power to repair the injury which he had committed. The Common Serjeant said, considering the statement made by the prosecution, and the fact that the real penalty to the prisoner was his degraded position, he should not pass a heavy sentence, but could not pass it over without some punishment. Sentence—one month's imprisonment in Newgate. THE POLICE COURT& If ARLBOROUGH4TREET. Mizabetk now of 23 , Clifton-street, Notting bill, housekeeper to Sir Charles Napier, 8.C.8., of 18, Albemarleotreet, was charged with embezzling at various periods money to the amount of upwards of 2001. It seemed that the prisoner was for about seven or eight years, up to last February, in the service of Sir C. Napier as his housekeeper ; and part of the prisoner's duty was to settle the different tradesmen's bills monthly, for which C u she received • sum of money from the prosecutor. rbruery last the prisoner and the butler in consequence atlas prosecutor having some (*use of dissaisfactioo, were discharged, and though some suspicion existed that the prisoner had been somehow making up a purse, still so sus picion had been then rancid that the prisoner had carried on a system of plunder extending over several years. After the prisoner left, several tradesmen's bills, topay which she had received the money, were again presented. This led to investigation, and the result was the d' of embezzlement of money at various periods exceeeding . in amount. _ _ _ Sr Charles Napier, examined, deposed that it was the business of the prisoner to pay certain amounts monthly. The prisoner every month produced • book in which the various tradesmen's accounts were enumerated, and then, when it was examined and the amount ascertained a sum of money to discharge the various bills was given to her. After the prisoner left a number of bills from gropers, butcher, and confectioners, were sent in which ought to have been settled with the money given to her at the monthly audit of accounts. When the prisoner was discharged there was about 61. for wages due to hpr, which she was told to call and receive, but which she had not done. Thepolice were applied to, and after some trouble they suome in finding the prisoner. When he (the prosecutor) saw the prisoner in :=he asked her were the receipts for the bills were. She they were in her trunk. He had examined the trunk, and could find no receipts for the bills in question. When some of the tradesman were asked why they had not sent in their amounts they replied they had done so, and had repeatedly applied without effect for their money. They had also written letters, but they appeared to have been intercepted. Prisoner—He bas not spoken truth. He has not paid the tradespeople. He never gave me money far it. All the receipts are there. He owes me wages now, for he has never paid me. He kept ladders about to break my legs, and he made me do man's work which laid me up. He then put me on board wages to save all be could, and up to this day he has never paid me my standing wages. The trades. men were only settled with three times a year. Sir Charles Napier declared that he gave money to the prisoner every month to pay the tradesmen. Several tradesmen having been examined, Hr. Beadon remanded the prisoner till Thursday next. BOMBAY AND AUNTILALIAN Mena—The Indus left Southampton on Saturday with the Bombay and Aus tralian mails. About 60 paaeengers were booked to go by her from Southampton and vil Marseilles, amongst whom were Sir E. Creamy; Deputy-Inimector.General of Hospital. Gordon ; Captains Williams, Waye, Chamberlayne, and Graham ; Lieutenant Kerr, and Ensign Pned. Amongst the cargo of the Indus was treasure worth about 45,00 W. The treasure consisted chiefly of bar silver and sovereigns for Bombay. UNITED STATER AND CANADIAN MAIIA.—The British and North American mail steamship Persia, Captain C. H. E.

The tallow market has continued in the same dull and in active state during the week as noticed in our hat report ; and with an increasing desire on the part of holders to realise price. of Y.C. in all positions hence to the end of the year have further declined fully 6d. per cwt. when com pared with those current last Friday. Notwithstanding the retrogression of prices for some time past there continue to be an evident determination on the part of manufacturers to purchase only for pressing wants, and which, with the general dulness of trade, are still of a very limited charac ter ; nor can we look for any improvement until prices shall have receded toe point that will be compatible with the existing and prospective features connected with the market. To-day the market has been quiet, and the result of the public sale shows that holders of " sorts" are anxious to realise, fearing lower prices. Y.C. is quoted as follows :-535. 6d. for fine tallow on the spot, 53. 9d. for delivery in May and June, 50a. 9d. for July to September, and 50". 6d. pee cwt. for October to December. Ale im ports since Monday up to last evening have been only 990 casks. The deliveries have been 497 casks, sad the present stock of all kinds is 28,705 casks, beings decrease of 633 casks when compared with the quantity on hand this day week. Town melted warn held firmly in the early part of the week at 53e. 3d. to 535. 6d. net, but during the past two days there has been more desire to realise in anticipation of a decline that, owing to the depressed Mate of the foreign market, appeared inevitable, and which has taken plats, the present quotation being 545. 3d., or say 51a. 9d. net, which is a reduction of ls. 6it per cwt. on last Friday's " Letter Price." This concession, we should obserre, has already attracted the attention of consumers, end we doubt not the stock will become much loosened. The public sales to-day resulted u follows : Taganrog.-Holders were evidently disposed to meet buyers, and, to effect sales, submitted to a decline of 11. to Is. 6d. per cwt. on last week's prices. As the sales pro gramed the rates accepted were in buyers' favour, and hence proved irregular for the 270 casks offered, the whole of which were sold as follows, viz.: -Mattes, good to fine, 525. 9d. to 53e. 6d. ,• middling to fair, 525. 3d. to 53e. ; mixed melting, middling to good, 595. per cwt. North American.-That offered was fine and very fine quality, and attracted the attention of buyers, which re sulted in the 115 casks (chiefly barrels) offered being all sold at 535. 9d. (two lots Ms.) per cwt. French was neglected; the 37 casks offered being all taken in at 535. per cwt. for good to fine, with lower qualities in full proportion. East India.-39 asks Singapore were held firmly, and taken in at above buyers' ideas of value. South American Horse Grease continues in very limited request. Holders, however, are still fi rm, and the 900 cases offered were all bought in at 40s. per cwt. Palm Oil is without any new feature to report. The de mand is limited, nevertheless holders are firm, and the 177 asks submitted were all taken in at 46e. per cwt. for firm Wbydab, hr. Cocoa Nut 01-The stock of Cochin in first bands being small induces holders to "how much firmness, and hence the 131 casks offered were all bought in at 455. to 45e. 6d. for good to fine ; Ceylon on the contrary, was in fair request, and 83 casks submitted were all sold at 43e. to 435. 6d. per cwt. Japan Wax.-1,000 boxes offered for sale, " without re serve," were sold at 565. to 60s. 6d. per cwt., being cheap. Stearine. -Two cases French, of middling quality, sold at 9d. per lb. net. (From the circular of Mews. Culverwell, Brooks, and Co., dated Friday evening.) THE WINE AND EMI= TRADE. Since the departure of the April mail business in the wine and spirit trade has been extremely dull, although the clearances for home consumption at the reduced duties con ' inue large. Brandy is for the moment neglected, and sales are with difficulty effected at full quotations. This, pro bably, will not last in the face of the increased duty pay ments, which in London alone were, for April, 1860, 72,617 .Bons, against April, 1859, 49,670 gallons • increase, 22,9 1 7 gallons. The advnres to hand from Aus tralia have had • tendency to flatten the market for new brandies. Marters present prim for 1859 is 240 f., or 10s. Bd. free on board ex potrt . For wines the demand has somewhat moderated, although the clearances from bond continue on • huge scale, ftpecia ly of sherry ; for the mouth of Ana 1880, 108,643 gallons; for the month of April, 1850, 1A770 gallons. So long an the consumption of wine remains as lame as at present, dealers will be compelled to replenish from time to time, although no doubt the tendency will be to limit purchases . as much as possible until the duty reaches its minimum rate (in January, 1861). Sherry The latest advice@ to bend from Jerez note con siderable activity in shipments, the e xp ort from Cadiz to all ports being for the mouths of March and April 13,760 butts, against 8,674 butts for the same period in 1859. Holders seeing so large an export, so much exceeding the average of former years, aaturally,demand higher rates, which have been readily paid for available clean sound sorts useable for immediate shipment. Port —The excitement caused by the reduction of the duty in England having sub sided, trade at Oporto has resumed something of its former steadinem. The 1858', prove better wines than many anti cipated when examined at the time of the vintage, although they cannot be clamed with such years u 1847 or 1851 ; the rates realised for good samples are extremely high for so new a wine. French Wines—Bed—Urge importations of FrenchgEteds are on the way, but.. yet few of the retailers have purchased ; the bulk of them wines being of the vintage 1859, are too new gad mode for immediate consumption .in many quintets. It yet remains to be seen what red wine is destined to fill the gap caused by the non-production in Portugal of good cheap red wine.— (From the Monthly Cir cular of Mr. F. W. Casein.) SIJOA.R.—The average pnce of brown or Muscovado sugar, the produce of the British Possessions in America, for the week ending May 8, is 26a. 4d. per cwt., exclu sive of the duties of customs paid or payable thereon.—The average price of brown or Muscovado sugar, the produce of the Mauritius, computed as above, is 30s. 6d.-240 re turn has been made of the price of brown or Muscovado sugar, the produce of the Past Indies.—The average price of the two foregoing descriptions of sugar, computed as above, and exclusive of duty, la 275. 21d. per cwt. COTTON.—laviarom, MAT 12.—We have a steady market to-day, prier a. Wore. The sales are 8,000 bake, of which 1,70 hd lare or exismt and speculation. oarroN GOODS.—limicurans, MAT 12—The Imre gate business of the week hi cloths halt not been inconsider able, and prices close firmly at the quotations of hat week. The advisee from India have not added to the sta bility of the market, but the heavy contracts previously placed, with the demand for cloths generally which springs up from day to day, are sufficient to carry off the produc tion in most of the binding fabrics, and give an appearance of animation to the market sufficient to maintain general steadiness. For India shirting*, T cloths, and jacocaets the contracts are now somewhat extensive. Long clothe and 36-inch shirting are lees actively inquired for, but values are steady, though the manufacturers of the latter hold stock to some extent. In yarns there is 'till very little bu siness for India, and the recent 'dukes from China are unfavourable ; but the home trade demand is not inconsi derable from manufacturers, and a demand is reported for Germany and the Mediterranean. Fine yarns show no improvement. WOOLLEN.—Lima, MAT 12.—We had a steady market this morning. It was well attended, and a fair business was transacted in nearly all descriptions of seasonable goods. The tone of the market was firm. Stocks are in • ; nevertheless the stated the wool market does not j • any concession in prices. HARDWARE.—Stitimonnw, MAT l2.—The trade of this town continues dull, but there has been no increase of it this week, neither are the manufacturers on short time, except in a few instances. The borne trade is not much below the average at this season ; it is on account of the small ness of the foreign orders that the slackness is principally felt. In South Staffordshire the iron trade is inactive. Some of the pig= rasters have discussed the expediency of blowing out furnaces ; no decision has yet been come to OS that point, but there is a general opinion that this would be the wiser course to pursue. The coal trade is nut quite as active as it has been, but there is still • large quantity of fuel coming into the district, and a full demand for all that is raised here. It is reported that government will imme diately invite tenders for many hundred tons of copper coinage. CORN. —C.iirnimoz, ICAT 12.—Wheat was quite as dear sia last week.

Spring corn scarce and dear, especially anything adapted for feeding purposes. Hzarroso, Iluy 12.- -The supply of wheat small : the trade slow at last week's prices. Inferior samples rather lower.

LEICESTER, MAT 12.—The show of wheat was tolerable, and samples generally came to hand inVair condition. The trade was still, at • decline of ls. per quarter ; floe white aorta moved off at 565. to 60e.; red, 52a. to 56 3 . p er 36 stone. The barley trade ruled quiet, and malting samples in some cases were purchaseable at rather leas nionex, prices varying from 40s. to 455. for the best sorts, and 36N. to 38e. per quarter for secondary and inferior. Them was not a plentiful supply of cats, the demand for which was fair, and late currencies were well maintained—old 30s. t o 345. • new, 295. to 325. per 24 s t one .

NrwcAstut, MAT 12. —At our market this morning we [had a very moderate show of wheat from the growera, land, having little offering from the coast, a clearance of farmers' samples wail effected within half an hour of their being pitched at an advance of fully. Is. per qr., south country descriptions at the same time participating in the improvement. For a very choice lot of new yellow Suffolk 575. was acquired, extra runs touching 555. to 551. 6c1., whilst for a cargo of Scotch white 57a. was paid, per 5041b5. respectively. In foreign little was done, owing to the ex , travegant pretensions of holders. Flour had more tone, and we raise our quotations fully Is. per sack ; and wo think there is every prospect, owing to the limited.nature of our stocks, of the advance being sustained. Grinding barley less enquired for, and remains nominally unchanged. Malt steady. Beans and peas not much sought after. For oats there was leen enq . uW, but in our quotations we make no alteration. The arrivals this week are :—Wheat, coast wise, 3,869 qn. ; ditto, foreign, 1,625; rye, coastwise, 107; barley, eramiwise, NO; ditto foreign, 9foo ; malt, coast wise, 440 • °eta, coas t wise, 3,458 ; foreign, 70 ; peas, 20; beans:coastwise, 17 ; foreign, 30 ; flour, 2,668 sacks. . _ NORWICH, MAT 12.—The mipply of wheat was not 'rite equal to the demand, and prime ruled In. per qr. higher for all descriptions.

NOMNOHAM, May 12.—The wheat stands were toler ably well supplied with samples, and there was a fair attendance of buyers and . sellers. The demand was slow at the prima of the preceding week : old white sorts were quoted at 55a. to 61s. ; new ditto, 55a. to 61s. ; old red, 63e. to 595. ; new ditto, 545. to 59e. per 36 stone.

READING, MAT 12.—Farmer, seem indisposed to send much wheat to market, and hence we were but shortly sup plied this morning. There was an average attendance. A somewhat improved tone pervades the trade, and a disposi tion being shown to purchase, a moderate amount of busi ness was transacted at about late rates. One fine parcel of Talavera realised 645. Al the malting season is pretty well over, there is but a short trade in barley, but late rates are maintained. Oats were in short supply, and there was • good inquiry, which caused price , to be very arm. Beans and peas are both in demand, at high rates. Wheat, 40s. to 62e. ; barley, 30s. to 455. ; oats, 18s. to 321. ; beans, 425. to 50s. ; peas, 38s. to 465. Flour—Households, 425. ; seconds, 365. per seek.

The trade generally ruled very dull, with prices on the decline, good samples being quoted about is. per quarter under the prices of last week, with little or no speculat io n. The show of barley was very short, and the demand for that description of grain very slow. Prices, however, continue high, and lots for malting purposes command go od prices ; grinding was in little re quest, but the quotations remain unaltered. Oat, continue in good demand, and prime lots command about fed. to le. pa r quarter more money, with the market still advancing. in consequence of the failure of the green crops, com mand high prices, and are quoted at ls. more money, with • steady demand. Peas scarcely noticed at descending rates. Hay and all kinds of fodder are exceedingly dear in mare. quence of the backward state of the grass ; the best hay is sold at 61. per ton. - - - - - - - WISBICH, MAT 12.—We have had nice rains with • milder temperature during the week, which has put a much better face on the country. At today's market we have had a very fair supply of wheat, and for middling and inferior qualities ls. per qr. more money was given, but the same does not apply to the finer descriptions. Spring corn in very short supply, and the prices of last week rather exceeded for aIL Prkes to the grower :—Wheat, white, lids. to 555. ; extra, 575. 63Ibs. per bushel ; ditto red, 508. to 53a. ; extra, 545% oats, L. 2d. to ls. 3d. per stone ; beans, 42. to 455. per qr.

Flour, 395. to 40a. per sack. - - - - KIRKCALDY, MAT 12.—M our country nuirkets,this week we had a moderate quantity of wheat offering, which sold much about last week's prices. Barley and oats offer so sparingly that the balk of the consumption is now met by foreign supplies. Here, to-day, we bad a fair supply of wheat, which sold readily at last week's prices.

Barley may be quoted 6d. per barrel cheaper, and oats have further declined Id. to 2d. per barrel, which Las led to a large bon uses the last few days.
