SUGAR..—The decline which took place last week in the prices of Muccovades appears to have attracted the attention of the trade; there has been an improved demand, and the prices realized are in several instances (particularly fine) a whale higher. This day, by public sale, 270 hhds., 16 tierces, 10 hrls. of St. Lucia sugar sold 425. a 525. ; the low brown sold lower than the market prices; but we have already stated the Sugar 46.. a 47w. rated low in propor tion to the brown, the latter have now fallen to the thus! proportion with the better qualities. The estimated sales this week 3,100 hhds. and trcs. In Refined goods there is little alteration ; the export demand is quite inconsider able, •and the grocers only, purchase for their immediate wants. • Molasses are higher, and rather brisk. EAST INDIA SUCIAIL.—There is still a good demand for Bengal Sugars, and many sales are reported at Is. 6d. ad vance on the late East India House Sale. FOKSIGN SuGAL—,There is sonic demand for Havannah Sugars for the Mediterranean, and several rather large- con tracts are reported, but the particulars have not transpired; 265. a 30s. stated, we believe about 27e. Some low white Peruams sold at 25e. • CorizE.--*Tle sales of this week are quite inconsider able ; the nlid. Dutch and good to fine mid. Jamaica meet a ready sale for home consumption, but all inferior parcels and unclrats ate very dull, and are off,red at very reduced rates, without facilitating sales to any extent. In Foreign or East India Coffee there are no transactions worth re porting. There were no piiblic or private sales of Coffee this day. The Market is dull, but without alteration in prices. - RU34, BRANDY, AND HoLLANns.—The 'tees of Rum are more limited than last week ; they consist of some grod rreels Jamaica at former prices ; some proof Lee wards, rather tinder, 18.8 d., and a parcel one under Is.7d. Brandy is held with much firmness, on account of the high prices in France. Genera is without alteration. Ham?, FLAX, AND TALLOW.-The Tallow Market has been very firm all the week. In Hemp or Flax there is no alteration worth reporting. The letters from St. Pe ' ttrshurgli are dated the let inst. Exchange, 10d. 9-16. Nothing done. • Frost fonr degrees. Ice fire fret thick. COTTON.—The Cotton Market is firm, lint the pur chases arc not extensive ; they consist of 600 Surats a 4il. The letters from Liverpool this morning state there is rather more business doing in Cottons; the Market was firm, and the prices a shade higher. spices. —There is little alteration in Spices; some g oo d Bl ac k Pepper sold at 3d. yesterday, which is rather lower, taking into calculation the quality. About 280 chests Cassia Lignea, the good quality sold at an average of 62e., which is rather lower. INDIGO.---In Indigo there is no alteration. RlCE.—There was rather a large sale of fair quality Renal Rice yesterday at 9s. 6d. a 10s., which is 6d. lowi.r. Toeaceo.There are no sales worth reporting. TEA —Market steady, with a good delivery. FnurT.—New Currants continue to be taken off steadily at 705., but red Smyrna Raisins have beet) sold this week Is. lower, and two or three parcels of good quality are now on tap at 40s. ; by public sale a parcel of very ordi nary quality was offered yesterday, but the whole of the sound were bought in 2e. a 3s. above the prices offered ; a few of the damaged only being sold at 355. a 365. Of new Sultanas one or two small parcels ha►e arrived, which have been taken tiff at 655. The price of new Valencia Raisins, which last week was advanced to 4.31. was on Monday last altered to 445. but the grocers had not dis posed of the quantity they bad taken the week before, and, consequently took but very few at the reduction; of basket Denim, also, some parcels are on tap at lower prices, say 34e. Figs continue to be taken off' rather freely, but at very low prices, say from 40s. to 50s. PRICES OF HOPS.—Dec. 18. Kent 61 6.4. 71. 10s. to N Di. Svssex Ditto 61 Os. 6/. lig. to 71. Os.

CHILBLAINS, RHEUMATISM, SPRAINS, &c. UTLER'S CAJEPUT OPODELDOC. • Csjeput Oil, which is the basis of this Opodeldoc, his bees long esteemed on the Continent, as a remedy for Chronic Rheumatism, Spasmodic Affections, Chilblains, Palsy, Stiffness, and Enlargement of the Joints, Sprains, Bruises, and Deafness ; and the experience of late years, in England, proves that it merits the high character given of it by the most eminent of the profession, in those ob stinate complaints. Being combined in the form of Opo deldoc, it is rendered more penetrating, and coLsequently much more efficacious as an external application. Rubbed upon the skin, by means of flannel, or the warm hand, it allays morbid irritation of nerves, invigorates:the ab sorbents, and accelerates the circulation. Sold in Bottles, at Is.

An occurrence of a romantic description has taken place during the present week in a village near Caistor. A youth, 17 years of age, had become en amoured of a girl twelve months younger than himself, and an early day had been fixed for the celebration of their nuptials. Mutually pleased with each other's company, the fond couple had spent the greater part of four sue msive nights together by the mother's fire-side, when they were overpowered by sleep, and sank peaceably toge ther into the arms of Somnus. They had not, however, reposed long When the swain was aroused by the cries of his intended spouse, whose clothes had taken fire; and, sad to relate, before the flame cold be subdued, she was so dreadfully burnt that her life is considered in danger ; and the day which they imagined was to have completed their happiness, has bean, to them, overcast with sorrow and gloom, in consequence of this melancholy disaster.-- Lincoln Aferciiry.

(Continued from our Paper of yesterday.) . . . Sir George I'uthili's examination continued—Mr. Davies detailed the c 7 rcumstanee of his purchase of the property at Crouch-hill, which he observed was the first cause of disagreement between him and hi s mother ; that up to this time he had never ex pended any money without her knowledge and con sent. He went with his mother to look for some place to spend the summer in the nei,zhliourhood of Hornsey. They saw a notice on a board that the house and grounds at Crouch-hill were to be sold— the house to be sold furnished. lle expressed u wish to purchase it, but his mother told him it was not fit for him. Ile, however, went the next day to the auctioneer who had the sale, and spoke to him on the subject, examined the house, and be fore the week was out lie became the purchaser of the whole for 7,0001. I asked him (continued the witness) whether he had sent any person to value it, but he said no. He had heard from a friend of his that a gentleman in the neighbourhood had offered 6,0001. for it, which was refused. I think he told • me that the estate had been put up to auction, and had been bought in. He told me that he was taken from the coffee-house at Furnivars-inn, and from his house at Crouch-hill, by force; that he wrote in consequence to several persons, and among the rest to Mr. Hobler, whose name he had seen in the newspapers, as Secretary to the Lord Mayor. He said that he afterwards found that the gentleman who called upon him was Mr. Hobler's son, of whom he had never heard. He said that he had given some papers to that gentleman which were of great importance. He did not describe what those papers were. lie said that as soon as he regained hi 3 liberty he should prosecute every body who had any hand in placing restraint upon him. He said that he would do so if it cost him 2,0001. He said that he had a particular talent at cross-examination, and that he would expose the ignorance of those who said that he was not of sound mind. He went down on his knees and expressed his obligation to me for having called on him. He said that be was amply repaid for his imprisonment in having been allowed to converse with the physicians who had been sent to him by the Lord Chancellor. He was very much excited during all our conversation. lie told me that he had - repeatedly dreamt an ex'raordinary dream. He described it to me. He said that something had been revealed to him in it respecting his future destiny. He said that certain letters which he had been writing to the Lord Chancellor were proofs that he was under the particular protection of Providence. After these three visits I made a report to the Lord Chancellor that he was not of sound mind. I made that report on the Bth of September. I saw him again on the 18:h of October, by the desire of his mother. I went to satisfy myself whether his previous delusions still existed. He was still very fond of his mother, and he said that his mother was fond of him : but he would never return to Philpot-lane whilst she was there, though he was quite convinced that when she left Philpot-lane she would destroy herself.— Whilst he acknowledged her affection for him, he admitted that if this investigation proved him sane, she would instantly destroy herself. At this visit I found him considerably better in both bodily and mental health than he was before. He had gained flesh, and looked more tranquil. His demeanour was more quiet. He told me that the persons in the house were behaving very kindly to him, and that he would rather be in a lunatic asylum than any where else under rustraiut, except in his own house. When I first saw him I was.unacquainted with his habits, but he appeared to be of a delicate frame of body. He did not appear in robust health. In October be appeared to be much more so; and the fact is, that a healthier state of body precedes frequently a healthier state of mind. Having ascer tained the state of his feelings to his mother, I asked him about the servants of the house, and from his answer, which the witness gave, but which from delicacy we omit, I concluded him insane. He refused to answer some questions put to him by Dr. Frampton. Dr. Frampton asked him whether he thought of marrying, and who was the lady. He declined to answer the question, but he previously had told me that he thought of marrying two or three ladies, and that one was a servant in his own employment. It is very common for an individual to refuse an answer on question , , which, if an swered, might show his insanity. Sir C. WETHERELL—CaIi you state to its, as a medical man, any instances of insane persons who have practised such caution and guard over them selves? The witness knew of several such instances. Are there several cases on this point in medical books ?--Ce►tainly : numerous cases. Do you know an instance w Inch occurred in the ca.e of a man of the name of Matthews ?—I do; that case is in Illustrations of illadnea, by Hallam. Sir C. WETHERELL was proceeding to inquire into the circumstances of that case, when Mr. ADOLPHUS objected to his inquiry. The ettiEF COMMISSIONER decided that Sir C. Wetherell's question could not be put to the wit ness, if due seference were paid to the general of es idence in similar eases. The examination of :sir G. Tuthill then pro ceeded—Caution in concealing opinions OCCUIS iO chron i c madness, particularly if the party knows that he has any pal lieniar object to gain by it. It fre quently occurs in insan e persons, who do not re cover; sometimes also in insane persons, who do reco v e r. In the latter it especially happens when she k tot. - ... ~,y..„, . • . . . . . - - - , • - - - .. ,,, .. ! ‘4,:a ... ft '•••XV 4 r.i . ;:.L.:l - 1:- . Y..

In the acute form they have not the power ; but, in 'proportion as their amendment advances, they ac quire that power, and frequently avail themselves of it to deceive those who do not know them. A com munication trade previously to the insane person on any particular subject •, - ..0u1d assist him in bringing that coral oul and caution into action. It may hap pen that he may also be tutored by other persons to exercise that controul and caution. Sir C. WETEIERELL—Supposing a person to be , eally insane, with this self-controul preventing his disclosing his insanity, would he or would he not, if at liberty without controul, be as dangerous as if he (lid disclose his insanity ? Witness—lle might be much more dangerous, because, if he disclosed his insanity, cautions might be taken to prevent danger. Sir C. WETHERELtMay the morbid image re main in the mind consistently with cunning enough to conceal it ? Witness—Certainly. Crows-examined by Mr. ADounius nothing of this young man previously visit to him. As to his _education and kit.previOus habits and gesticulatio n s, I k new nothing. On my first interview I thought him of - unsound mind. The next day I went to Philpot-lane before I visited him, and I there had interviews with his mother and Nlr. Lowe. They did not agree in the statements which they made to me. lls mother told me that two of his paternal uncles had been insane. His - new =en his mother lu l'hilpar-htee, I anetont:l is to true that he had given impoi taut pepeis to a person of n horn he knew nothinn.;,and that was one of the zrounds On which I founded toy rept.Tt of itoariiz. • If hal been b a l ane ' rix and in denbt, in , uni - y of his paternal tnicies would hare turned the scie against him. My additional rea,one for think nz hint insane wire his learninn to box, his puieluiNin iz fowl of Belcher for 10s., and his sayin". ilnAt ho could weep over his rabbits, which be 14 not seen for siz weeks. Mr. Anotxtrus—And which, unlike hint, :veil. at liberty. mother impressed me with the uniform kindness with which her son had treated her up to the be ginning- of the summer. She did not tell ire that their twarrel commenced about his purchasing the estate at Crouch-hill. She told me that she con sidered it an imprudent purchase. lie toM me that the first act of insubordination to his mother Was that purchase. I know nothing of his estate at Crouch-hill. I do not know that any persons in the tea-trade were jealous of, or had insulted him. Ido not know whether the account which he gave me about the rabbits which he got from Belcher e..a. true or nor. 1 consider it correct, as also what he told me about purchasing a horse of Mrs. Irv, and hi: going to his banker's and to the Furnival's.inn coiree•house. Mr. A DOLPHUS—Then, Sir, if you believe all this to be correct, may I a•k you, did he tell you any thing• that you knew not to be Ittie ? Wi'- ness—He told me that the persons in the house had given him names to insult him. That I believe not obe true. He told me that I should find his mo- lerinsane. From m)• own knowledge I know dm Mr. ADOLPIIUS—Have you any more instances, in the course of your communications with him, of his sta►ing to you things as true which, of your own personal knowledge, you knew to be untrue ? No answer was given to this question. Mr. ADOLPHUS—Was there any point in his nar rative of matters of fact on which you could judge of the truth or untruth of what he told you, from any other source than the information which you derived from the persons in the house, or retreat, or from his mother ? Witness—lt is not front any communication from his mother that I judge him insane. The witness—lle said nothing of ht , t rime I vi.ited him, my name was not announe.-d to him h, fore I went into his rootn. Thrit• v. as no .litiiculty in gctting to him. Mr. Polhill aivise,i me to go to- him towinotinceil, beeio_Ne he t:wut;f~t that Mr. Davies would not see me if I tk.;:t in my name. Mr. ADOLPIIUS—That is not an answer to my question, Sir George, and you know it as well as I do. I will repeat the question to you again. Was there any point, &c. (repeating his former words) ? Witness—No, there was not. • Mr. ADoennus—No, there was not—and that answer I have got at last. The witness then continued—A sane man, if he had been confined us a madman, would express in dignation at it ; but not in the same manner as Mr. Davies did. 1 will not bs sure that Mr. Davies did not know of my report to the Lord Chancellor on the 18th of October. The great freedom with which he conversed with me at first was owing to the state of his disease; afterwards he was more reserved. I cannot believe .that any man in his senses, however low born, even though he should be the son of a common porter and of a-cook, would express himself compensated for his imprisonment in an asylum by having the honour of a visit from me by order of the Lord Chancellor. Mr. ADOLPHUS—May it not be possible for a man to be put into a retreat, and yet in his senses, if a another man can be found to sign a certificate, de claring his insasiity wirhout even seeing him ? The Witness—lt is possible; just as an innocent man may be taken up for a crime which he has not committed. When I saw him on the 18th of Oct. his bodily health had much improved, arid as the mental health improves with the bodily, I told the Lord Chancellor in my report, that I was of opiuiou that Mr. Davies would recover. Mr. ADOLPHUS—TeII me particularly, Sir George, what occurred at the last interview which you had with him ? 'I he witness —At the last interview 1 went into his room with Dr. Frampton. It was about seven o'clock in the evening, and we found him reclining on his bed. He got up to receive us. We inquired how he was. He made no particular answer, but said, " much as I was." I did not feel his pulse, nor look at his tongue. Dr. Frumpton asked him if he was aware of the expense of this inquiry ? He said he could not tell. Dr. Frampton told him that it would put his property to very con siderable expense. I think he then reminded us that his mother must pay it. Dr. Frampton said that that would ultimately be the same thing, as his mother had no other son but him. He admitted that it would be so. Dr. Frampton then asked him if he would be reconciled to his mother ? He said "yes." I asked him whether he would return to Philpot lane and live with his mother ? Ile said " No ; he had rather that the inquisition should proceed than that." He was then asked if he had any intention to marry ? He said that he had entertained such an intention, but he declined to tell us the name of the lady. Dr. Frampton said that if Ire was not inclined to answer, he did not wish to pry impertinently into his (Mr. Davies's) affairs. Ile told me that he was treated very kindly in the retreat, turd that the matters of which he had complained to me had ceased. He wished that he had never mentioned them to me. Ile told me that he had seen the affidavits of his mother and his sister against him. He expressed great indignation against them on that account. it was after mentioning those affidavits that he refused to go surd Lye with his mother. Mr. ADOLPHUS—Now, I ask you, Sir George, what was there in the course of hie conduct that day, which led you to suppose idol insane ? Wit ness—Noth.ng dee'dedly, except his mode of speak ing of his fandly. Mr. ADOLPHUS—And that was all ? Witneseeee The disturbance of the natural affections is e syeeistoia of insaniy. Mr. ADOLPHUS—Then do I understand you to say that every men who quarrels with his mother is mad ? The witness—No. Mr. ADOLPHUS—Is it not possible that there may be ill-treatment on the part of the mother rte well as insanity on the part of the son ? The W;ts ness—Yes. Mr. AnoLestwseself Mr. Davies had said that Ire would have gone home to his mother, would you have advised the doors of the retreat to be opseoeCt to him ? Witness—Certainly not, 1 should have required much more to have fel: myself justified in releasing him ? Apoe.onose—lndeedl What, after you lrrrve told us that there was decidedly nothing, except his mode of speaking against his family, a Inch led you ' to suppose him insane' Th e w i tness, i n answer to Whet questions, deposed as follows ; —After I had Re-examined—l should deem Mr. Davies insane, if I knew nothing of the insanity of his naeles. I should have judged him insane, even if I had ktiewn nothing of his giving up important. papers t,s Mr. Nobler, of whom he knew nothing. By the COMMISSIONERS—O n the Sib Derernber am of opinion that he was unable to govern hi•• links. From the evidence which I have heard ' this investigation, I should date the comm e u, isalur i s of his insanity from his visit to Mr. Lawrence. A t the time when Mr. Gibbs describes him as insane, I do not consider that the - disease of i nsan i t y hail commenced; he neve r :assigned to me any renson fur not going We* to his Mother, though I pressed him on the snhieet; be generally ev ti :aSked him for an • . three several times-; he•never gave stay other t'eason for not going back to his mother than that he wi •lied to act for himself, and that his mother IA mild not let him; he said that she eontro u l e d hi m too mo d : , and biterfer e d improperly in his business. Dr. Algernon- Frampuiti.—l did not know Mr. Davies till the 6th of August,' when I wss cL,t f ployed by his friends to visit him. I met that 'lay, at his house, Drs. Cobb, English,' end Davis. f was introduced into a huge room, where were seve ral persons, With all of whom, sate the medic.d gentlemen, I was unacquainted. Au arritt.,remerd was made amongst us that we should exstnne Mr. Davies singly. From 'a hat I saw on that uil2;sio,., I considered - him of unsound mind. Ile doctor then proceeded to describe the occurrences which took place at this his first visit in terms not dissimilar to the evidence already given by the other medi ca l witnesses. He then p rocee d e d as follows saw Mr. Davies on the Bth of Decerael. 1 con sider him still of insane mind. The evidence of Sir G. Tuthill, which I have just heard is, as far as re gards what passed betwe en him and Mr. Davies ai , d rne, perfectly correct. I had also en inlet view with Mr. f)avies on the 7th of December. 1 iliqured into the circumstances of his intended mat jag,, sod into his purchase of Crouch-hill. I ark. d whether he had any intentions of marrying when he bought that estate He said th at h e h a d i ; ,d , ac h intentions : he had thought of tro different ladies. I asked their names, but he declined to answer. I asked him if he would return and be reconeiled to his mother ? lie stated, that from a sense id* dory he would avoid any unpleasant or rindieti.. - e pro ceedings towards his mother ; but he wc•uld los t be entirely reconciled to her, so as to ii‘e with her. I asked lsim why ? Ile replied, that she inter (erred too much in the arrangers,lit of his busine.s, and controlled him more th an he liked. I alte,l him in what particulars ? He replied, that he had ihonaht it necessary, for the proper management of his busi ness, that his men should be thoroughly clean and dressed, and take their stations in the warehouse by nine o'clock in the morning. He cared that she ioquired,too much into the expenditure of his petty cash—his pocket money. I asked him if he had any other complaints against her : he stated that he [ad none. Those two complaints were all that he stated against his mother. I endeavoured to convince my self that. his mind was as unsound as at Crouch-hill. He admitted that he had done some things t h ere which he ought riot, but he did no t s t ate what they wtr^. Ido riot recollect any thing more of import ance which took place on the 7th of December. Cross-examined by Mr. ]3RoDEtticK-011 the 7th I alluded to the expence of this proceeding, and en deavoured to persuade hint to put an end to it. Mr..BRODERICK—That is, to be considered mad I Witness—l told him that he was recover lag, and that soon this proceeding would be unnecessary. I told the same thing to his mother that cvt Mag. I did not point out to his mother that if be did not resist this inquisition, he would he found insane. He complained of:being kept in custody as an insane man, when be was-perfectly sane. Supposing he had been saneond imprisoned as insane, I should consider his answer about. not taking vindictive prcreedioga against Iris mother, as the conduct of a sen-ibks and feeling man. If my opinion is asked as a gendeman, I think it was the symptom of a man of delicate mind not to mention the name of the ladies whom be was anxious to marry. Mr. BRODERICK—WeII, then, if you think his answer respecting his unwillingness to proceed against his mother, to be the answer of a sensible tend feeling man, and his reluctance to disclose the name of a lady whom he was anxious to marry, u symptom of a man of delicate rn;nd, what was there in his conduct on the 7th of Decernkter last, which. led von to consider him insane on th a t d ay ? Wi t _ nes:.-1 could not consider him sane on the 7th a December, because he would not admit hin - iseff to have been insane on the Bth of August , —(Latight e r and a slight hiss, which msde the Commissioners observe that if the spectators indstlged in such exhi bitions of feeling the room must be. clef:req.—The witness then continued.--I consider these was k delusion in his mind us to his mother's conduct. his mother had interfered as he described, there, would he no delusion. Ido not know that his rnether has interfered. I am one of the gentiernea who eau sign a certificate end send say mow, if I please. without seeing him, to a mad.noie.e. I never in qiiired how Mr. Davies managed his business on the 6th of August, though I declared that he was ince-. liable of managing it. I considered that the pur chase of Crouch-hill for 6,000 guineas was. itself an act of insanity. If it were to sell for more, I should still think him insane in havir g por,ila„,l it. I should think his purchase of 4 se ut of insanity, considering his circumstances, Mr. BttoDERICK.—AVimt Lk you know of ItiF cir cumstances ?—The witn ess .—l know nothing of his circumstance—(laneter,\,--_tit g. h 1 ; ve iltict as my opinion, because I consider that et loan of business ought not to lock up so much nt his capitid. The more extensive his busiue*a the m ore occasion Lk: has for his capital, Mr. BttstThciti—Supposing that he wire to bo worth 40,:1001., and to be making 40001. ts-year, and to Ivish :o have a country-Louse for eitlicr his health or his innusement, and to give 7,000/. for it, would you suppose l k im to. be mad in t,o doing.

The witness—l consider hi. desire to lost:ruble six physicians—(A laugh),--six lawyers, and two re porter., a proof of his insanity.
