ItEPtESENTATION OF HERT FORDSHIRE. The election of a Member to serve in Parliament for county of Herts, in the place of Lord Grimston, who called to the Upper House of Parliament by the de- Lease of his father, Lord Verulam, was held at Hertford yesterday. It being generally understood that there was to be no opposition, there was, of c o u rse , none o f t h e exc i tement that attended a contested election. The only candidate in the field, Mr. T. P. Halsey, was attended to the hust ings by about 150 gentlemen on horseback, and a num ber of flags and banners. The usual proclamation having been made, and the writ read, by Mr. Longmore, the Under-Sheriff, Sir H. Mstix stood forward, and having briefly stated the object for which they were assembled, requested that the electors would give every gentleman who might please to address them a patient hearing. Mr. D. RADCLIFFE then proposed Mr. Thomas Plumer lf they as a fit and proper person to represent the runty of Hertfordshire in Parliament. Eleven years a4o he had proposed their late representative, Lord Crimston, and at that period, as at the present, the con d'r'en and the prospects of the agricultural interest were tl: , all-absorbing topics of interest in the public mind. A the period to which he referred a gloom hung over 3 culture, not from the acts of any Government, but b ause it had pleased Providence to afflict them with bad harvests. Almost ever since, however, with the exception of the exaggerated failure of the potato crop, the har vests had been abundant, but yet, at a period of al most unexampled prosperity, when the country was hadpy and contented, when there was a great demand for labour, and every branch of the national industry was in a pro:,perous condition, they had been thrown into a state of almost unparalleled excitement. And what was the cause of all this ? Why, because amonster, hitherto unknown in this country, a monied monopoly, has been suffered to rear its hideous horn, and make giant strides to invade their hearths and homes.--(Hear, hear.) When he had the honour of addressing the meeting at the agricultural dinner of the county, he told them that ho doubted the sincerity of Sir Robert Peel. He at that time thought he could discover the small black cloud in the distance, which he expected would burst and spread destruction around ; but upon that principle of English justice which considered every man innocent until he was proved to be guilty, he would forbear from branding him with treachery until they knew what he really meant to do ; but, at the same time, recent oc currences plainly showed that it was necessary for them to ho on their guard. It had been truly said that ingratitude was so hateful a crime, that the man who was guilty of it could not be guilty of any other, for all were comprised in it, and he was still willing to believe that Sir Robert Peel would not be a traitor to those who had placed him in power. Upon this vital question of protection to agriculture, however, there should be no temporising ; and he was sorry to see, that at the meeting at Bedford, Lord Al thorp had likened their position, with Sir Robert Peel at their head, to passengers in a train on the railway who, expecting to go at the rate of thirty miles an hour, found that the engineer was taking them at the rate of a hun dred ; and when they remonstrated with him upon the danger to which he subjected their lives, his only answer was, that there was another train behind him coming at the rate of a hundred and fifty miles an hour, and they, therefore, thought it better to go on with him, than to run the risk of travelling by the still faster train. He must venture to express his opinion that they were foals who would travel with such an engineer at all, and that the better course, if he persisted, would be to get another engineer to conduct the train, and to pay no at tention to the 150-mile an hour train behind them, but to feel assured that the result would be that it would destroy itself, but would not injure any but those upon it.- —(Hear. and a laugh. A voice in the crowd, " But it's nearly at the station . ') He need not tell them that by the 150-mile an hour train he referred to that unprinci pled band of conspirators known as the Anti-Corn-law League—(Hear, and interruption)—a set of men who were denounced by the respectable persons of all parties in politics, and whom the great head of the Whig party in that county, Lord Dacre ' had denounced as a m o nied oligarchy.—(Cheers.) It was not so much what th Anti-Corn-law League said that he objected, to as hat they did. They might get an audience together in Covent-garden Theatre to hear them spouting, the -:ene as they would go to see a pantomime or any other xhibition, and all their talking there would have no o,,,ri;t effect on the laws of England than dancing "Jim w."—(Laughter.) But what made them formidable , that they presumed to interfere with the privileges Parliament, that they had tampered with the elective ‘_ta"chile, and had endeavoured to separate the mina • tee uring and the agricultural interest, and to set them in opposition to each other.—(Hear, hear.) They were toll that the League had obtained large sums of money ; and with what object ? Was it for patriotic pur pose: ? No. Their leaders unblushingly repudiated ,)ity patriotic views, and Mr. Heywood, at a meet ng at Manchester, unhesitatingly admitted that the,e sums of money were intended to be ap plied to furthering the interest and increasing the profits r,,f the manufacturers. A great deal had been said sheet Lord John Russell joining the League, and de claring his adherence to what was called free trade ; but he must say that, in his opinion, it looked more like aarrying out that feeling which prevailed in the mind of Lucifer, that it was better to " reign in hell than serve in he even."—(Cheers, and interruption.) He could conceive many humiliating positions, such as being a joint of J'Connell's wit ; or the feelings of Mr. Macaulay, when he wrote his humble epistle from Edinburgh, when he 3xoc.cted to he indicting a high-flown document from Windsor Castle ; but, in his opinion, nothing could be so Humiliating to any person of character as an association with the infernal League.—(Hear, and laughter.) There was not, however, in his opinion, any cause to fear the resu lt. The British lion was moved, and he would shake like dewdrops from his mane the scum of the League. Let them wait patiently for the meeting of Parliament, and they would then see whether the Minister would dare to propose any measure such as has been threatened, and whether he would league himself with those who declared their object to be to destroy the aristocracy of the land. If he should do so—if he should thereby declare the legality of the exercise of this money monopoly—then, at the eleventh hour, the agricultural interest of England would come forward and beat their '3p7onents with their own weapons.—(Cheers.) There should be 100,000/. subscribed in every county in Eng land.—(Renewed cheering.) He knew a great number of gentlemen now ready to come forward with a thou ,D,TO pounds. He, a plain country gentleman, would out down his thousand pounds, aye, and would sacri fice half his fortune, rather than yield to the tyranny of these democratic despots.—(Great cheering.) lien and money were ready ; and if it should come to what he alluded to, he had no doubt they should scatter i3right and Cobden, and the other members of the League, like chaff before the wind. While upon this mbject of the proceedings of the League, he begged _ave to address a few words to the labourers, and to idvise them not to be deluded by the specious argu ments that were made use of by the League, and to look spun every man as their enemy who endeavoured to in duce them to believe that those who were above them were indifferent to any privations they might undergo, ar that they were the cause of their suffering them; and when they talked of cheap bread to them, they should ask them to tell them the condition of the peasantry in tLe countries where bread was cheap. He could tell them this, that in Italy they would see poor wretches scrambling for a piece of orange-peel when a hatful of ;ranges could be had for a penny.—(Hear, hear.) After som e further observations, the Hon. Gentl eman con .7Juded by propo sin g Mr. alsey, in the usual form. Mr. JOHN BEGO, of Stanstead, said that, as a tenant arwer in the county, he had great pleasure in seconding - 1., nomination of Mr. Halsey to represent the county 'arliament. lie had come forward and boldly and o testly avowed his principles, and he had no doubt he could act up to them ; and he trusted that, when the liament met, the Members would do their duty, and the promises made by them at the last election.— Hear, hear.) It might be said that no political ques t ice was at present actually before the country as Par lament was not sitting ; but he trusted that if, as was aleaured would be the case, Sir Robert Peel was to tee met to deprive the agricultural interest of any portion of that small protection which they now t ijoyed, that the landed proprietors of the country would :ia together to resist such an attempt. At the time of ~eo panic caused by the recent changes, when Lord John '..tussell was called upon to form an Administration, he .114 sustained a loss of 8L upon two waggons of corn, and he had no doubt he must have continued to have s old t the same loss if he had succeeded in doing so; but for t enately he was not s tron g enough for the place. The pflect of depriving agriculture of the protection it new enjoyed must, in his opinion, be most ruinous—it would, at all events, reduce the price of agricultural produce by )ue-third, and which must necessarily fall upon the labouring population. He farmed five hundred acres of land, and had to till fifty-seven mouths from the pro duce of his farm ; bat if his receipts were diminished one-third, it would be impossible for him to continue t support his labourers, and he must discharge the greater portion of them ; and although be might be most 'unwilling to do so, yet he should have no alternative. The Riau &team having inquired whether any )ther candidate was to be proposed, and receiving no answer, he declared Mr. Halsey duly elected. Mr. HALSEY then stood forward, and was loudly dileered. He said that if he was not able to return thanks in an adequate manner for the high honour and trust filet was reposed in him, it WAS not from any want of ,ratitude, but solely from a want of proper language to o xpress his feelings. He felt that it was a grea t h onour for him, a young man and untried, to be elected their representative, and he could assure them that he had a trong determination to merit their kindness by his deeds. H e was aware of the great responsibility that at ail times was attached to the position of a Me mber of p arNanien t, but that responsibily was very greatly in. , :le2 sed in t imes like the present. Still, howe ver , h e 'loped that , by s t e ady adhesion to the prin c ipl es b e !sad espoused, he should be able on a future occasion his stewardship that would o) give an accou nt Of and , honourable to himself. e satisfactory to th em, A° believed that his political opunons were pretty well town in the county; but o n this occ asion he might be •ccused for making a few observations upon the present ate of affairs. The circumstances of the present race A month ago t he y saw a cut were most peculiar. - stry, apparently strong in itself, and posses sin g a r majority in P ar li ament, su dd e nly dissolve d _ not ,- an y external agency, but from internal dissensions. •. : • saw Lord John Russell sent for to form an Admi . tion, and although there were very few things that Noble Lord would not attempt, yet there was • sing that he clearly could not succeed in, namely, ; .aining any portion of public confidence or sympa ,or a party that four years ago was i gnomin i ous l y , e d from power by the L amest ese anitu° Ce " , safely willof dthe e Lord John Russellwit.% un animous ti fe jtr ered of a still-born Administration, and he Meat say that i t was a most happy deliverance foi the copat,y. THE They now had at the head of affairs the same Minister, and nearly the same Administration, which they had placed in power four years ago, solely upon the prin ciple of protection to native industy.—(Hear, hear) A few days would show what they intended to do, and although he would not prejudge them, yet he certainly did think that the ought to look at the present Govern ment with some degree of distrust and suspicion. What ever measures might be proposed, however, his course was clear. He should support such only as be consi dered calculated for the benefit of the country at large; and with regard to the all important question of pro tection to agriculture, without pledging himself to sup port through thick and thin this or that system of corn laws, he would never consent to any proposition that did not secure to the agricultural interest the pro tection they at present enjoyed (Cheers) and he would consent to no change, unless he considered it gave them a protection tantamount to that they at present possessed. A cry of famine, which had been principally raised by the Anti-Corn-law League, and for which he believed there was very little foundation, had hem set on foot ; but, in point of fact, he believed the country was never more flourishing than at the present mo ment. Manufactures were flourishing, their shipping was occupied, trade and commerce was also flourishing; agriculture was recovering, and the labouring population had not, he was of opinion, been better off at any period since the war ; this being the case, he must say that it would take a great deal to convince him that any change was necessary, and he did not believe, that under the present law, the agricultural interest had any greater amount of protection than they were entitled to. There was another, and, in his opinion, an almost equallygrave question to be answered, which was, whether the country was to be governed ander the old constitution of Sovereign, Lords, and Commons, or whether it was to be at the mercy of our irresponsible and self-elected parliament, holding its meetings in Covent-garden Theatre?— (Interruption.) He had no hesitation in saying, that if the proceedings of the Anti-Corn-law League were not immediately stopped—(A laugh)—it would not only be dangerous to their interests as agriculturists, but also to their individual liberties, and their independ ence as a nation.—(Cheers.) If their vital interests were to be thus attacked, and they were to be compelled to submit to the worst of all tyranny—the despotism of money—England would be no longer a free country. If the League gained their present object, did they sup pose they wou ld b e sat i s fi e d ? Would they not, on the contrary, stimulated by their successful sedition, persevere in their course, and that they would next at tack the Church and the Throne ? But which would be the first to be attacked was, of course, only known to that Providence upon which he placed his confidence for relief from this great oppression. He therefore called upon them, by their love of their country and of inde pendence, to exert themselves to put an end to this in famous oppression ; and, if they did so, he had no doubt they would succeed. The Hon. Member concluded by again returning his thanks for the high honour they had done him in electing him as their representative. The Hon. W. F. COWPER, M.P., begged, as one of the electors of the county, to be allowed to address a few observations to his brother freeholders, in reference to the very extraordinary language that had been made use of that day by some of the gentlemen who had addressed them, particularly in reference to the League and the Minister, which appeared to have so entirely taken pos session of their minds.—(A laugh.) He must confess that he was somewhat surprised to find his friend Mr. Radcliffe, after ransacking his mind for similes to the League, adopt those from the infernal regions.—(Roars of laughter.) The oratory must have had quite a sul phureous taste ; and when he talked of the British lion, he really almost expected to hear him roar.—( Renewed laughter.) When he said this, he wished it to be un derstood that he had no connexion with the League, and he candidly admitted that he disapproved of many of the acts of that body.—(Hear, hear.) He disapproved of their levying money for the avowed purpose of in. fluencing elections, and he likewise disapproved of the presumptuous and foolish manner in which Mr. Cobden and some other members of the League spoke of the landed aristocracy of the country. While he entered his protest against those proceedings on the part of the League, he did not think they deserved what was said of them by Mr. Radcliffe. He called them monied mo nopolists, but he could not see why monopoly should appear so odious in the manufacturing interest, and yet be so delightful in the eyes of the proprietors of land. —(lnterruption, and a cry of "Protection to agricul ture is not monopoly.") What did protection mean, if it meant anything at all, but monopoly ?--("No, no.") It was said that the League had an intention of attacking the Church and Throne, but he must say he had never heard anything fall from any member of it showing such ten dency, and he merely considered them as a political club, formed for a particular object. Entertaining the opinions which they knew he did, they might expect that he should give them some information as to the reasons which induced the party with whom he acted not to con test the present election.—(" You could not help it," said some one in the crowd.) Well, that might be one reason, but the real fact was, they felt satisfied that Sir Robert Peel would carry the question of free trade, and that as the battle could only be properly fought in the House of Commons, they considered it useless to have a contest upon the point in that county. He, and those with whom he acted, were quite satisfied as to the pernicious effect of what was called "protection," not only upon all classes of the community, but upon the agriculturists themselves; but so long as it was abolished, they did not care whether this was effected by Sir Robert Peel or Lord John Rus sell. They complained a great deal of Sir Robert Peel, and charged him with deception, but for his part he saw much more to blame in his past that in his present con duct. He remembered when the leader c,f the Whig Government proposed to give them a fixed duty of Bs. a quarter, the poor farmers were in very great alarm, and rejected the proposal, and now they would see what Sir Robert Peel and their Tory leaders would give them. He believed that many of those who rejected the Bs. duty would now be very glad to get it. Mr. RADCLIFFE begged to say a few words in ex planation. He yielded to no man in a feeling of respect for the Hon. Gentlemen who were the supporters of the Whig party in that county ; but with regard to the League, he certainly felt himself justified in using the expressions he did. He was very glad to bear Mr. Cow per repudiate any connexion with the League —parti cularly as a placard, in which his brother, Mr. Spencer Cowper, was requested to stand for the county, was sup posed to have emanated from that body. Mr. COWPER said that neither he nor his brother was aware of this requisition, or anything about it, until after it had been published. Mr. WOODLEY, an elector, next addressed the meeting at some length in favour of the present corn-laws. Mr. FALVEY, one of the Anti-Corn-law Leime, claimed a right to reply to the observations of the last speaker, as he had been appealed to by him. The Hlou SHERIFF said that as he was not an elector he could not legally be heard. Mr. BONTERUS, the agent of the Anti-Corn-law League at Hertford, begged to be permitted to address a few observations to the meeting, and as it appeared that he was qualified as an elector, he was allowed to proceed. After some preliminary observations, he said he regretted to find that Mr. Cowper repudiated the League, for he said he could assure him that withou their assistance his party would never be able to carry the county. Ile declared that the objects of the League were both misunderstood and misrepresented ; and as to their having any seditious or illegal objects, it was clear it was not so, for if they had, they would long ago have been prosecuted ; for those who raked up the infernal regions for metaphors, would do the same in the courts of law for an Act of Parliament for their purpose, if any such existed. As to the interference of the League with the representation of the country, let them look at the state of that county. They had a population of 157,000, and, out of that number, only 4,500 possessed the right of voting, and he would ask whether that could be a proper state of things. All .the League desired was to infuse new blood into all the constituencies, and he could tell them that they would never be satisfied until they returned three free traders for the county of Hertfordshire. • Sir MINTO FARQUHAR then proposed a vote of thanks to the High Sheriff. C. T. DUNSDELL seconded the motion. The HIGH SHERIFF returned thanks. Sir MINTo FARQUHAR then proposed three cheers for their new Member; and Mr. WOODLEY, three groans for the " accursed " Corn-law League, all of which were duly given; after which the electors separated. RAILWAY ROBBERY. LEICESTER, JAN. 7.—At the Leicester Epiphany ses sions, held before C. W. Packe, Esq., M.P., chairman, at the Castle, at Leicester, this day, Alfred Penavairs, and Josephine Marie Huismans, were charged with steal ing a portmanteau, the property of S. Cooper. Pri soners described themselves to be of French extraction, and as travelling about the country vending articles of millinery, &c. The prosecutor is a tradesman, residing in Kirby-street, Hatton-garden. On the morning of the sth ult., he left the Euston Station, by the London and Birmingham Railway, by which he proceeded to Rugby, and was conveyed from that place to Leicester by the Midland line. Upon ar riving at the latter town he got out of the carriage, and took his portmanteau into the booking office ' where he gave it in charge of a porter, intending to call for it on his return from the town, where he had to transact some business ; but, on his returning to the office, be found that the portmanteau had been taken away, and, being unable to obtain any tidings of it, he pur sued his journey to Nottingham, where he gave informa tion to the police, after which he continued his progress to Manchester. The police officer at Nottingham having ascertained that the two prisoners had offered various articles of plate to different individuals for sale, suspicion at once fell upon them, and they were consequently sought out, and taken into custody, and the portmanteau in question was found in their possession, together with all the articles of plate that it had contained, none of the tradesmen to whom it was offered for sale liking to pur chase such costly articles of persons who were entire strangers to them. After some further proceedings, The CH AIRMAN sa i d he should pass sentence upon them, whi c h was , in the Hou se ofot h r r a e t e they ton ashnodukldeps kept severally a h l a l yr hard l e a confined r twolyemonths.

(From this Night's Gazette.) An Account, pursuant to the Act 7th and Bth of Victoria , cap. 32, for the Week ending on Saturday, the 3d day of January, 1846. LONDON, FRIDAY' EVENING, JANTTA.KY g, 1446. Ball, Great Berkhamstead, in the said county, Esq., in the room of the Hon. James Walter Grimston, com monly called Viscount Grimston, now Earl of Verulani called up to the House of Peers. bad they any legal claim for relief ; but all they wanted was temporary ss:sitanee, and had this been given to them they should not have proceeded to the slightest violence. Mr. NORTON tcild thew, that if they were really dis tressed and in a destitute state, as they represented, and relief had been refused to them at the workhouse, their proper course would have been to apply to this Court, and not take the law into their own hands. He then con victed them in the penalty of 65., the value of the glass, or in default of payment, to three days' imprisonment each. Richard Holden, a shopman to an oil and colourman in Piccadilly, was brought before the magistrate by one of the relieving-officers of the parish of Lambeth, for neglecting to support his wife, in consequence of which she became chargeable to the parish. The wife, a well-dressed woman, said that she and her husband h-d lived on the most affectionate terms, until they unfortunately took in a female lodger, and soon after she discovered the most positive proof that her husband had formed an improper intimacy with her. She, of course, insisted that the female should at once leave the house, and her husband, instead of breaking off the intimacy, took a lodging for her, and lived with her as her husband. The defendant said, that so violent was the temper of his wife, that he could not continue to live with her, but should allow 20s. a week to the support of herself and three children. Mr. NORTON endeavoured to get them to make up matters, and live together again, but the husband re fused to do so, and the wife accepted his offer of 20s. a week. SOUTHWARK. Thomas Emmell, a broker's man, was charged with stealing part of a bankrupt's stock, while employed in making out the goods in lots ready for sale. It appeared that a tradesman, named Davis, a harness maker, in High-street, Southwark, had recently failed in business, the consequence of which was that he became a bankrupt, and his stuck la trade was put up for auction. The prisoner was employed on the premises in placing the different lots ready for sale, and a few days ago he was observed to leave the bankrupt's house, and to pro ceed to a marine-store shop in Union -street. Here he produced a capacious blue bag on the counter, containing a great number of brass articles used in the harness trade, and wanted to dispose of them for a sum infinitely below their value. A policeman, who had narrowly watched the prisoner from the bankrupt's house to the marine store shop, entered the latter place at the moment he was about to conclude a bargain. The prisoner, when ques tioned, equivocated a good deal, but at length acknow ledged that he had brought the articles from No. 100, High-street, and that they had been given to him by Mr. Mithell, an officer of the Bankruptcy Court, who had charge of the stock on the premises. The answer, how ever, not satisfying the policeman, upon subsequent inquiries being made on the subject, it was discovered that the articles had been taken from the bankrupt's stock by the prisoner, without the sanction or permission of the individual in charge of the goods, and that he availed himself of the circumstance of his being em ployed there to plunder the different articles from the stock. The MAGISTRATE said that persons in the prisoner's situation had great facilities of plundering from a bank rupt's stock, and that the charge being one of an aggra vated nature, he should send it before a jury. The prisoner was, therefore, committed. William Minchiner, a master butcher, was charged with furiously driving, and breaking the leg of a youth named Smith, who had been confined in the hospital since the accident. It appeared that the complainant was driving a waggon along High-street, and when near the corner of Thomas street, the prisoner drove his cart from the opposite side of the road, and one of the shafts striking the boy on the shoulder knocked him down, and one of the wheels passing over his leg broke it about the centre. The lad was taken up in an insensible state, and conveyed to St. Thomas's Hospital, where he has been confined ever since the accident. Evidence having been adduced that the accident was attributable to the reekless manner in which he was driving at the time, The MAGISTRATE inflicted a fine of 40s. on the defend ant, besides adjudging him to pay 101. as damages, which sum when paid was directed to be handed over to the lad who sustained the injury. HAMMERSMITH. Two lads named Wm. Hawkins ar►d Jacob Silk, were charged with stealing iron from the works of the West London Railway. Policeman Ayres, T 215, deposed that about half past five o'clock on the previous afternoon, whilst on duty in the Uxbridge-road, he stopped the two prisoners, who were in company together, near the West London Rail way-bridge, at Shepherd's Bush. The prisoner Hawkins, was at the time carrying a sack. Witness looked into it and found two pieces of iron now produced. He then asked the prisoners where they had got the iron from ; when they both said, pointing towards the railway, " We got them from near to the road leading to Kensal-green." Witness then took them to the station-house. William Wilson, of No. 2, Pickering-place, Queen's row, Bayswater, deposed that he was foreman over the labourers on the West London Railway. The two pieces of iron, called connecting•chains, or switches, now: pro duced by the police, were the property of the London and Birmingham Railway Company. The prisoners were fully committed for trial. THAMES. Robett Clark, a seaman, was charged with damaging a cab. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner was paid off on Wednesday. He engaged a cab, and sallied out on a cruise. He was unable to steer, and having neither box nor compass, soon capsized the vehicle. He got off the box, lifted up the cab, and, having taken in an extra passenger, made all the sail he was able for the Commercial-road. On arriving at the Cannon-street gate toll was demanded, but Jack said he paid no further dues, and drove on. He had not gone far before he ran foul of a coffee stall, and made a wreck of it. Having satisfied the owner, he again made all the sail he was able, and was followed by a motley group, who cheered him on. After some further proceedings, Mr. BALLANTINE said, the loss sustained by the cab man is of some consequence to him, and you must pay for the damage. _ _ _ The cabman estimated the expense of repairing the injury at 50s. .. . BALIANTINE said, unless the prisoner paid a fine of 505., he must go to gaol for 21 days.

The average price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, the produce of the East Indies. computed from the returns made in the week ending Jan. 6, 1846, is 365. 90. per cwt. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current, of Jan. 9.) SucAn.—To-day importers of West India Sugar were more inclined to realize, but submitting to a reduction on former rates of 6d to is per cwt, tempted buyers to operate with more freedom, and in grocery and refining descriptions a fair business was transacted ; the better qualities were, however, the most in request. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Bengal Sugar offered at public sale amounted to 3,838 bags; the trade were desirous to operate, and nearly the whole sold at full rates. Privately 3,000 bags of Dobah have been disposed of at 50s to 58s, but principally at 52s to 53s per cwt for coloury soft yellow. FORElGN.—Although importers of yellow llavannah are sellers at a further decline in prices, still buyers have been cautious in their proceedings, and by private con tract little business has been transacted ; at auction 1517 boxes have been offered--the damaged amounting to 380 boxes were sold, but at rates exhibiting a decline on those of the highest point of the market, of 4s to 5s per cwt. White is neglected, and it is difficult to quote prices with accuracy. There are sellers of white Brazil upon further re duced terms, still the business transacted has been ex tremely limited, and only 50 chests of middling Bahia have been disposed of 25s per cwt. Brown has been purchased with caution, by exporters and our refiners working under bond, although there are sellers at a fur ther reduction of prices. The market for other descrip tions of foreign qas a dull appearance, and prices are on the decline. REFINED.—To day Refined Goods! were not much in demdnd for home consumption, still Standard Lumps could not be ob:ained under 655, and brown grocery 64s per cwt. . _ MAURITIUS.—A considerable improvement has taken place in the demand this week for yellow, grey, and the better descriptions of brown, prices have risen 6d to Is per cwt, although the market has been more liberally sudplied; common brown has however met with little attention, but at present cannot be quoted cheaper. . COFFEE.—This afternoon Ceylon Coffee was wanted, but the stiff rates asked by the merchants operated against business, and at auction 1,680 bags were chiefly taken in rather above the value, that is to say, good or dinary pale at 50s. The part sold went at full prices— real good ordinary pale selling at 50s to 51s, good ordinary 49s 6d, low ord ragged 455. sea da aged 32s 6d to 525, country damaged 43s 6d to 46s 6d, triage 40s, low 26s black 12s to 13s.

TEA—Although there are further arrivals, still mer chants manifest firmness, and refrain from offering any at public sale ; the trade have come forward with in creased freedom, and an advance in the value of nearly every kind has taken place. In Congou extensive pur chases have been made, especially in the common and middling descriptions, a further advance in prices has taken place. Pouchong has been in ex cellent, and prices are on the advance. Twankay has been in good demand, and prices arc looking up, the supply at market being small, There has been a large business transacted in Hyson, the low rates that prevail tempted the ,trade to get in stock ; the prices paid ev. hibit an advance on those previously quoted at 2d per lb. In Gunpower the business transacted has been upon a more extended scale, but in the value little variation at present has taken place Imperial has been sold to a fair extent. Young Hyson is wanted. In Hyson Skin the operations have been ona snore extended scale. Flowery Pekoe is more wanted. MOLASSES.—To-day West India met with attention, and brought rather higher rates ; 70 puns of good An tigua were sold at 24s per cwt. Cocoa.—There has been little desire shown to pur chase any description of West India, and although the market has been scantily supplied, still a decline in the value of is to 2s per cwt has taken place. Foreign is dull of sale, and there are sellers by private treaty upon lower terms. SPlCES.—lmporters of Malabar Pepper have been de sirous to realise this week, but submitting to a reduction on former rates of id per pound has occasioned the de mand to be good. In Sumatra and Penang a fair busi ness has been transacted by private treaty, in conse quence of rather lower rates having been accepted. The limited business transacted privately in Nutmegs has been at prices showing a decline on those previously quoted of 2d per lb. Mace has been purchased with cau tion privately, and prices are on the decline. In Cassia Lignea the operations have been more extensive. In Pimento several purchases have been made privatety, and the rates paid have been rather above those previ ously quoted. The market is still scanti l y supplied. Ginger at present is not muc h wa nted by exporters or the home trade, but h o ld ers are not inclined to take lower rates, and supply the market scantily. Cloves are held with firmness, a n d a f a i r business has been trans acted. Holders of Cin na mon are not inclined to take lower rates for any description. SACO.—There has been a brisker demand, and pri vately several parcels have beendisposed of at the f)r naer currency: the supply is less than it was. At auction 60 chests were sold at 32s to 33s for good middling sma:l white Pearl. In Sago Flour the operations have been upon a more extended s::ale privately at'lBs to 19s per cwt. The quantity of Rum arrived since the commencement of the year has been 333 puns and 553 hhds. Holders of Leeward Island are nut inclined further to reduce their prices; but the purchases made have been extremely limited at 2s to 2a Id per gallon proof strength. For Calcutta the demand has been only for small parcels at is 11d to 2s proof with certificate. Jamaica is not to be obtained upon lower terms ; but the demand has been limited. The market has a very firm appearance for all descriptions of Brandy, and there has been a good business transacted. Geneva has been purchased with more freedom for exportation, and prices are firm. The value of English Corn Spirits is lOs 6d per gallon nett cash ; but there has not been much business done. RlCE.—This afternoon 1,400 bags of Spanish Rice - were offered at public sale, the sound was taken in rather above the value; fine bold clean white at 21s, good ditto lOs 6d to 20s, but the sea damaged sold, first class at 17s to 17s 6d, second ditto 16s, and third ditto 14s 6d per cwt. _ FRUIT.—The market has a dull appearance for Cur rants and Raisins, the grocers only taking such to supply their immediate wants, and it is difficult to make any sales. COCHINEAL.—HoIders of Silvers submitting to a slight decline on last week's rates tempted buyers to operate with more freedom, and the parcels brought forward were nearly all disposed of at and since the public sales. LAC DYE.—The business transacted privately has been upon a more extended scale, at former rates, but not above, low sorts selling at 5d to 7d, middling 8d to to Is, and superior is 2d to is 6d.

AYR, JAN. 7.—The Elizabeth, Adair, of Killaugh, from Stranraer to this port, came on shore last night on the beach at the South Pier,:but is expected off; cargo discharging without damage. On Saturday evening information was given to Mr. Cochrane, superintendent of The C division of police, that a quantity of cotton waste had been stolen from the premises of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company, Lon don-road ; and the same evening a bag of waste was found by a police-constable, near the railway arches, between Ashton-street and Travis-street. Suspicion fell upon four men, named Samuel Scott, William Grimes, Thomas Johnson, and John Alarchington, and they were apprehended, and, after examination before the magistrates, on Monday, were remanded to Thursday.—Manchester Guardian. _ _'Viscount Hinton, son of Earl Poulett, has re ired from the army. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MARY LEBOIVE. Mary Ann Judd was brought up for re-examination. Many children who had had property stolen from them were now in attendance, and no fewer than five of them identified the prisoner as the person by whom they had been plundered. George Henry Chamberlain, a little boy, nine years old, deposed that a few weeks ago, as he was passing along Salisbury-street, Portman-market, with a bundle of linen which he was carrying home to his mother, he was accosted by the prisoner, who, after walking with him for some minutes, asked him to go into a house in the Edgware-road, and inquire if her husband was there, at the same time saying that she would hold the bundle for him, and that on his return she would give him two pence and an India-rubber ball ; he gave up the said bundle to her, not thinking there was anything wrong, and on his leaving the house and looking for the prisoner, he found that she was gone. The prisoner, who denied all knowledge of the rob beries, was remanded. Charles Wood was placed at the bar before Mr. Long for final examination, charged with having obtained goods from Mr. Benham, 19, Wigmore-street, Caven• dish. square, by falsely representing that they were for Sir William Baynes, 25, Portland place, in whose service he had lived as butler, and was discharged from his si tuation a year and a half ago. The case was proved, and the prisoner was sent for trial. il;1,!9 William John Robinson, describing himself as a "com mercial agent," was charged with a violent assault upon Richard Wilson, a master-baker, carrying on business in Star-street, Paddington. It appears from the evidence that on the previous night, between ten and eleven o'clock, complainant saw the prisoner assault two females in the New-road ; he (complainant) remonstrated with him upon the miscon duct of which he had been guilty, when the prisoner immediately struck him several times on the head with a stick, which he had with him. Complainant added, that he bled profusely in consequence of the blows in question, and that as soon as he could meet with a con stable he gave the prisoner into custody. The prisoner, who, in answer to the charge said that the complainant gave him the first blow, was fined 40s. Tho penalty was directly paid. WORSHIP•STREET. Georgiana Den:psey, the young sempstress who stood charged with cutting and wounding with a table knife a man named George Pitt, by whom she had been dis carded, after living with him for a considerable time as his wife, was placed at the bar, before Mr. Broughton, for final examination. It will be recollected that the prisoner, who is in an advanced state of pregnancy, had been remanded for the production of evidence in support of her statement, that she had inflicted upon the prosecutor the injuries he complained of, which were of a very trivial character, under strong feelings of provocation, occasioned by his having used to her a scandalous epithet. The prosecutor still pressed the magistrate to send the prisoner for trial, on the ground that he should have no protection from her future violence if she were allowed to go at large ; but Mr. BROUGHTON said that, so far from the prisoner having exhibited any premeditated intention to injure him, she had exhibited the most affectionate regard for him, notwithstanding the unfeeling conduct he had all along pursued towards her ; and he could only attribute the prosecutor's inveterate animosity to a desire to es cape from the responsibility of supporting the child, of which she would so shortly be the mother. Her whole conduct evinced an entire absence of malice, and as the injuries the complainant had sustained were of a very slight nature, he considered she had already undergone sufficient punishment for hastily giving way to the ex treme provocation she had received, and he should, therefore, order her to be discharged. The prisoner, who was much affected, was then liberated, to the evident satisfaction of every one in Court. The Magistrate announced his receipt of a letter, enclosing the sum of 21. from H. and J. W., for the poor-box. LAMBETH. Susannah Taylor, 'Vary the,, Jane Smith, and Ann White were charged before the Hon. G. C. Norton with wilfully breaking two panes of glass, of the value of 65., at Lambeth Workhouse. George Newland, the gate -porter at Lambeth Work house, deposed that, about half-past twelve o'clock on that day, he found the prisoners, who were perfect strangers to him, and who did not belong to the parish, in the small office, and discovered at the same time that two squares of glass, of the value of 3s. each, were broken. H e as k e d w h o had done i t, an d a ll the pri soners replied that they had. William Peplows, an inmate of the workhouse, who acts as occasional porter at the workhouse gate, stated that about twelve o'clock the prisoners came to the gate, and upon his asking what they wanted, they replied they came for relief. He then told them civilly to go to the assistant-overseer, in another part of the building. They went out as he thought, for that purpose, but mediately afterwards he heard the smashing of glass, and on opening the door he saw the prisoner Taylor throw a stone through a pane of glass. ll e as k ed her why she did it, and all the prisoners replied, " We all here did it." The prisoners acknowledged they had broken the I windows, but said they had not done so until they had been refused relief, or even admittance into the work house. In reply to the q u estions of the M ag i strate, t h ey sa id they were not inhabitants of the parish of Lambeth, nor THE GREY AND PALMERSTON QUESTION. We have been favoured with the perusal of a letter, addressed by a personal friend of Lord Grey to a gentle man of this town, which throws some light upon the late movement among the leaders of the Whigs, and from which the following is an abstract. The statements may be implicitly relied upon : " I wonder how the late unfortunate break-up of Lord John's staff has a ff ec t e d Li ver p oo l. I don't call i t unfor tunate as regards Lord John's probable tenure of office, for I think it lik e ly t h a t th e l u k e - wa rm support whi▪ ch he would have had from Peel, would have been withdrawn after the settlement of the corn-law question, and he would have found himself too weak to carry on the Go vernment, which then would have been seized, wi▪ th re morseless triumph, by the Tories ; but, it is very unfor tunate, as regards the future agreement of the Whig party. Lord Grey is blamed and abused—but, I think, very unjustly, for, it is not true, as stated, that Lord Pal merston would have taken any post to preserve unani mity, and that Lord Grey would do nothing that was to include Lord Palmerston in the Council. The fact is, that Lord Pahnerston;declared he would have the Fo reign-office . or none—that Lord Grey o ff ere d to relin quish that intended for him to Lord Palmerston, and, if it would smooth matters, to place Lord Palmerston in the Lords and give him the Leadership there—that he, Lord Grey, would most willingly follow him and co operate in any way whatever; but, that his opinion (and it is not his opinion only, but a very general one) was, that such was the feeling, with respect to Lord Palmer ston by some foreign powers, with whom it is essential that we should be on terms of amity, and such the want of cordiality between him and the whole corps thp.lo matique in this country—that the chances of be i ng in volved in war were too great to warrant his appointment to the Foreign-office. Lord Palmerston would accept of no other ; upon which, Lord Grey declined to take the responsibility of office, on announcing which Lord John immediately broke up the whole thi ng. F eeling the injustice of the accusations brought against Lord Grey, and depending most implicitly on the statemenlof the proceedings, which I had from himself the day after the break up, I place the facts in your hands in order i t e h a a d t in ) g -o p u ap m e ay r.”—coLmimveurpniocoaltme t e h r e c m ury to o t f h t e his ed d i a to y r . of your THE ARMY.

The first inquest was held at the Golden Lion, Dean-street, Soho, on th e b ody of Caroline Saunderson, aged 23 years. It appeared by the evidence that, on Wednesday evening last, the deceased had been at a Christmas party; she then ap peared in her usual health and cheerfulness; the next day she complained of pain in the chest. She was attended by Mr. Marshall, a surgeon, but she died on Friday morning. From a post mortem examination it was found that there had been an ulcer in the stomach, which bursting, had cawed death. It might have been accelerated by dancing or other extertion. Verdict—" Died from natural causes." The second inquest was held at the Plough, Carey-street, on Jonathan Stockam Ingram, aged 51, a licensed waterman at the Spotted Dog, Strand, who was found on Saturday morning lying in bed quite dead; a medical gentleman said from an attack of apoplexy. Verdict accordingly, A FATHER'S FEELING.—The Thames has been rising for several days past. We are sure it must be in in dignation against Lord Ellenborough Lard of the Admiralty—Punch.
