Lord DENMAN intimated that on Monday the Court would give its judgment in most of the motions for new trials with respect to which the ,decision of the Court had been deferred. The Court then proceeded with the Crown paper. THE QUEEN V. THE RELIEVING OFFICERS OF THE PARISH OF CROMWELL, HANTS. This was an appeal by the officers of the above-men tioned parish against an order of two Justices of Surrey, for removing a pauper, named Martha Croucher, and her eight children, from the parish of Elstead to Cromwell, that parish they considered being chargable with their support. It appeared that she was married in Cromwell parish in 1826, and that she and her husband lived there until 1837, when they removed to Elstead, in which parish her husband died. She was exa• mined by two justices of the -county, ahn made an order for her removal, but the officers of Cromwell re fused to receive her, on the ground that she was not ex amined in accordance with the provisions of the poor law, which enacts tnat a copy or copies of the examira don or examinations of a pauper should be furnished to him or her •, whereas they maintained that the Act, was not complied with, as she was examined twice—first, un th/27th of February ; secondly, on the Gth of ',Niel', 1845, when the order was made, and that she was only supplied with a copy of the la t examination. The case now came on for argument. Mr. WALLINGER was heard at length against the appeal. He sated that the first, examination was in complete, that it bore no date, and that it was not signed. by the justices, and that what occurred on the first examination was repeated and completed on the second, and that therefore the words of the Act had been fully complied with. Mr. TAYLOR followed. He cited cases to show that no violation of the Act had taken place; and held that there was virtually but one examination. No doubt the attorney for the respondents wont to the residence of the pauper, and took her statement, merely putting the month " January " to it, leaving the day blank, think ing that the case would come before the justices in that month, when the date would be added, but it appeared the case did nut come before them until the 27th of February, when the examination was commenced, but left incomplete until the subsequent examination. Lord DENMAN intimated that the Court would not then hear the other side, as they wished time to consider the subject. By doing so, he anticipated the matter would assume a more simple form, and a correct decision be more easily arrived at. THE PROBATE DUTY.—THE QUEEN V. THE COM3HS• SIONERS OF STAMPS AND TAXES. A mandamus hadbeen issued by this Court, calling upon the Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes to show cause why they should not return 651. to the executors of Lot d Wallace, to which they held they are entitled under the following circumstances :—Lord Wallace died in February, 1844. Two probates were subsequenly proved, one in Canterbury for 45,0001., on which 600/. duty was paid, and in York for 8,0001., on which 1401. was paid, making altogether 7401. The real effects, however, of Lord Wallace were afterwards found to be 43,3271.35. 6d. in the province of Canterbury, and 7,5671. 18s. 2d. in York, making an aggregate of 50,947/. Is. Bd. ; the debts which were paid amounted to 2,689/. 6s. 10d., leaving a balance of 48,2571. 14s. 10d., on which the probate duty was 675/., which was 651. leas than the former amount. The Crown had filed a replication, setting forth that the Commissioners were empowered to levy the probate duty in two separate amounts on the property in the two pro vinces, and that the sums so levied made up the actual amount paid, notwithstanding the subsequent reductions. Mr. WATSON, Q.C., appeared in support of the de murrer, and held that the Act of Parliament did not empower the Commissioners to receive probate duty on separate sums, but on the aggregate amount of the pro perty on which probates had been proved, whether in one or more provinces. Sir F. THESIGER appeared for the Crown, and ex plained that although the Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes might have taken an objection to the issuing of a mandamus by the Court, they waived this advantage, as they were anxious to obtain the decision of the Court on the point. He then went on at great length to justify the acts of the Commissioners, contending that the aggre gate levying of the probate duty on sums proved in two provinces would involve so much complexity and diffi culty—the arranging of the debts incurred in each pro vince, for instance—that the Commis sioners exercised much wisdom in apportioning the amounts to each pro vince, and so levying them. Besides, the Act of Par liament only referred to probates in the singular number, and made no provision for a levy—one probate duty, as the property proved in different provinces. Mr. WATSON replied. His Learned Friend said the proceedings of the Commissioners were exceedingly complicated. Now he (Mr. Watson) considered that this was far from a satisfacto r y intimation to the unfortu nate persons who were compelled to pay the probate duty. Their proceedings should be divested of all corn plexity. Hence the importance of obtaining the deci sion of the Court on the first point submitted to its con sideration. He reiterated the arguments with which he set out, and held that the Court must decide with the executors of Lord Wallace. _ _ Lord DENDIAN considered that Mr. Watson had not made out a sufficient case for the interference of the Court ; he had not satisfied the Court that the Commis sioners had acted improperly, or not in accordance with the powers vested in them. They must, therefore, de cide against him. All the Judges agreed in this decision, and each de livered his opinion. The Court rose at two o'clock, in order to meet the Judges of the" Common Pleas and Exchequer in the Exchequer Chamber. BAIL CGURT.-(THIS DAY.) THE QUEEN V. WEBB AND ANOTHER. Mr. M'CatrLEv moved to make a rule absolute in order that the defendants in this case who were now lying in Warwick gaol, should be brought up and ad mitted to bail. The motion was made upon the affida vits of the prisoners, who were charged with man slaughter. The depositions stated that Webb was a railway contractor, and the other defendant Kemp was an ostler. On the evening on which the occurrenc took place, Webb hired t. gig, and Kemp drove it to e wards Banbury. When they arrived within four or five miles of Banbury, the horse shied at something in the road, and on inspection they saw a gig overturned, and a man lying near it. They did not drive up against it, for they had considerable difficulty in getting the horse near it. They drove on and gave an alarm at the nearest p!ace, which was about half a mile distant. They informed the police on reaching Banbury. Mr. Justice PATTESON—It here appears from the evidence, that the prisoners said at once, to the police that they saw a gig overturned and a man and horse lying dead in the road. They appeared to . be dead, as they never stirred. Ido not se I.rom the e them find nce how these persons are in any way implicated. Leh bail in four sureties of 20/ , and themselves in SOL missiormr in giving his judgment, and his Honour con cluded by saying that to meet the justice of the case he must "suspend,the certificate for three years. An application was made for protection. Mr. DuNcAN, on behalf of bis client, supported the application, but it was postponed for the consent of the assignees. INDIAN PROMOTION.

The Court was occupied until two o'clock this day in hearing motions for new trials, none of which, how ever, presented the slightest feature of public import ance. At two o'clock the Court rose for the purpose of meeting the judges of the other Courts in the Exche quer Chamber, for the purpose of taking into considera tion the various Crown cases reserved on the circuits. The Judges present were the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, the Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, the Lord Chief Baron, Baron Parke, Baron Rolfe, Baron Platt, Baron Alderson, Mr. Justice Caltmen, Mr. Justice Coleridge, Mr. Justice Wightman, Mr. Justice Williams. There was a large attendance of barristers from the various circuits, but the cases brought forward were not of such a nature as to call for any public notice. COMMON PLEAS.—(THIS DAY.) On the first day of the present term the Lord Chief Justice announced that it was the intention of the Court to allow the bar to move at the opening of the Court according to their standing at the bar, giving, however, Sergeants-at-Law having patents a pre cedence- over Queen's Counsel. This rule has been acted upon throughout the term, but it is look( d upon by the bar to be not only an inconvenient, but an invidious distinction. Accordingly this morning Mr. Sergeant Channell applied to the Court to have the rule abrogated, and the custom of " going through" the bar in rotation adopted in its stead. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE said the Court would con sider the matter.

Mr. Mitchell commenced his campaign last evening, and much obliged are we to Mr. Mitchell for having commenced his campaign so soon, thus affording to us during the dreary nights of winter, one of the most delight ful and intellectual of amusements. The first piece was La Jeunesse de Henri V., by Alexandre Duval. (The Henry V. being the sth of England.) This piece is the comedy which is known to the English playgoer as Charles IL The one is a literal translation of the other. If we mistake not Mr. Howard Payne in the preface to Charles 11. acknowledges that his piece is an adapttaion from the French, but we can hardly suppose that it is a mere translation of this piece of Alexandre Duval's for in this piece Rochester figures as the companion of Henry V. We can scarcely imagine that any French author would have been guilty of such an anachronism; and, therefore, we imagine that Mr. Howard Payne's play must have been a liberal adaptation of some French piece, and that Mr. Duval must have re-translated Payne's play for the French theatre substituting Henry for Charles, inasmuch as, during the reign of Charles X. a Off entitled Le Jeunesse du Roi Charles would have scarcely passed the ordeal of the censorship. The character of the piece was the Captain Copp of M. Cartigny, which was quite equal to the Captain Copp of Fawcett, and that was perfect. The King of Rhozevil had not the calibre of Charles 11. of Charles Kemble, but we know of no actor on either the English or the French stage who can at present compete with M. Rhozevil in this character. Lady Clara was well sustained by Mademoiselle A melie Khin, who is engaged for the season, and whose debut was most successful. and the part of Copp's Niece was given with the most piquant mixture of simplicity and espieglerie by Mdlle. Celine Vall6e, whose engagement will greatly strengthen the corps dramatique of the theatre. Regnard's comedy of Les Folies Amoureuses eollowed, in which Mdlle. Brohan, the premiere soubrette, of the Theatre Francais, made her first audience. eri9an te, fu St l e of i sfutnh,e vervolu bility and life, andyet polished witha l . S he kee ps the audi baepapueaidraeanleeofbesofourbereatntesE, ence in a constant roar of laughter , and yet " ne'ero'ersteps the modesty of nature." In th e first sce ne she made a decided hit, and in obedien ce to the enthusiastic call of the audience, appeared to acknowledge the plaudits p ng re li t s t h y, which were most deservedly lavished on her. We hope that during the course of her engagement, and that of Perlet, who appears next week, Moliere's Tartu f fe will be produced. The Tartuffe of Perlet is inimitable; and from what we saw of Mademoiselle Brohan l as t night, we are convinced that her Dorine will be quite equal to Per:et's Tartuffe. Mademoiselle Edith, a new member of the corps, was the Agatha ; and, as Agatha, she exhibited great versatility. Nothing could exceed her acting in the mad scenes. She was alternately the Fanatica per la Musica—the foolish old lady and the bullying young efficer, to the life. Cartigny's old guardian Albert was a most careful and artlitical piece of acting ; and the Crispin of M. Lucien was ex:essively quaint and humourous. We could not help feeling a degree of regret that M. Lucien was not an English actor. He would be t he best Cap tain Bobadil that ever trod t he boards. Pi g ault Lebrun's 's petite comedie of Les Ri v a ux deux • memes concluded the evening a musement, in which Mademoiselle Brohan sus tained the part of Lise, and elicited shouts of laughter and applause. The National Anthem was sung by the whole of the company between the two last pieces. The house was well filled in every part. THE LATE M. OWEN'S BEQUEST.--It IS stated, on the authority of one of the trustees, that the full amount of Mr. Owen's bequest for the foundation of a college near Manchester will be about 100,0001. CHAPLAIN TO THE LONDON HOSPITAL.—The Rev. Mr. Ward has been appointed Chaplain to this Hospital. ~°~:"~ THE RIVER PLATE FALMOUTH, Nov. 12,—Her Majesty's steam-frigate Gorgon, Commander Crouch, put into port this morn , ing about eleven o'clock, under canvas, fuel being ex hausted, and after three days' hard thrashing in the Channel with the prevailing easterly and north-easterly winds. The Gorgon left Monte Video on the 13th of Sep tember ; Rio Janeiro, 22d ; and Bahia, 30th following, being bound to Spithead with Mr. Hood, the late Com missioner deputed to settle the differences Buenos Ayrean and Monte Videan republics, and who, accompanied by his son and secretary (Lieutenant Hood, R.N.), has landed here, and will proceed for London this evening. By this arrival we are sorry to learn that all the at tempts strenuously and faithfully exerted by Mr. Hood to mediate between the belligerent parties have totally failed, even at the moment of completion, Rosas having at last refused to come to terms unless the blockade was first raised, which could not he cutapli..d with whilst his army remaintd in the province of the Oriental Re public. _ _ It is supposed Mr. Heed Las hastrmd home for fur ther instructions, and afterernferring with the Govern ment, will again embark on his mission, and endeavour to establish a peace. • The officers of the Gorgon represent that matters were in a very unsatisfactory state in the river on their departure, and %, ere likely to continue so until tivAilitiet were put an end to by negotiation or otherwise. The Gorgon lift her Majesty's steamer Devastation with the Commodore's pendant of Sir Charles Ilotham, K.C.8., at Bahia, on his voyage from Rio do Is Plata to Ascension, where he would assume the command of the north-western coast of Africa. CHILDS V. TOOK AND OTHERS. This was an action of debt brought by the plaintiff, a civil engineer, to recover 1,5601. from the defendant, as one of the provisional committeemen of the Tunbridge' and Rye Harbour. There were eleven actions against eleven different defendants for the same debt, and on a former day Mr. Bramwell obtained a rule to show cause why ten of the actions should not be stopped till the eleventh had been tried and decided upon. Mr. Sergeant Channell was heard against the rule, and Mr. Bramwell in support of it. The COURT ruled that as the defendants upon their . own showing could not obtain the relief they then asked through a circuitous means, such as pleading in abate• ment, the Court had no right or disposition to grant it nominally. The difficnity in the case arose from the peculiar circumstances and position of the association into which the defendants had entered, and therefore the defendants had by their own act sur rounded themselves with embarrasments which the Court had no power to relieve them from without throwing a degree of hardship upon the plaintiff, who had not in any way abused the remedy or the course of seeking a remedy, which the Legisla ture and the law gave to him. He could not safely bring his action against the whole, because there was a doubt whether the whole were liable jointly ; and, un der these circumstances, however anxious the Court might have felt to reduce the difficulties, they could not so do without entangling themselves and the plaintiff in still further diffieulths. The difficulty was one wide!' a court of law could not remove. and ,as it was incteising daily in magnitude, perhaps it would shortly receive the attention of the Letilature, Rule discharged with costs. BANKRUPTCY.-(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner floLnovp.) IN RE EVANS AND EVANS HIS HONOUR proceeded to give lodgment on the appli cation fur certificates to these bankrupts, who had car ried on hu4inesz in Bond. street as book aucioneers. The facts of this case have been repeatedly before the public. They were again - detailed by the Learned Corn• GUILD HALL.-:(THISDAY) The woman who, under the name of Jane Harvey, was 'yesterday charged before Mr. Alderman Farn combo with a❑ attempted fraud upon Lord A. Harvey, M.P., was again place d at the bar this morning, when his Lordship attended, and produccd a letter which he had just received from the clerk to the Commissioners of Police at Brighton, to the effect that the prisoner was not known at the address which she gave at No. 4, Edward-place, in that town, and that there was nodoubt she was au impostor. She had nothicg to say in her defence beyond that she belonged to Stratfcrd, that her husband had de serted her, leaving her with two children, and that destitution led her to attempt the imposition. She was sentenced to seven days' imprisomtnt. ARLBRO'-STREET.-(THIS DAY) itiant Blake, salicitor, Temple, wns charged with an assault last night on John Percival Johnson, in King William-street, Stsand, and ufterwurds in the nay ket. The complainant said he was walking up Fleet-street westward, and wa.; surrriFed by the d feud:int coming up and saying that he had knocked off his hat. The ee fendant demanded his address, which was refusad and he followed him oa to the Eslitiburgh Castle, where he made a disturbance and wished to give complainant into custody, but several policemen refused to take the charge. Complainant and his friends proceeded along the Strand, the defendant still following them, and in King William street, another policeman having refund to take the charge, the defendant west in before com plainant and gave him two or three slight slaps in the chest with the back of his hand, saying " I'm a solicitor in the Temple and know what Pm about; now I have committed a breacn of the peace." The whole party moved on into the Haymarket, and the defendant re peated the same thing there, and was taken into custody. Police-constable, F 28, who took defendant into cus tody, deposed as to his insulting manner towards com plainant. Mr. Lora (to Mr. Johnson)—Do you deny having knocked off defendant's hat ? Mr. Johnson—On my oath I deny it. . . . The defendant emitted the assault. He said he had committed it to ascertain the complainant's address. Mr. LONG fined the defendant forty shillings. The defendant paid the money, and left the Court with the address of the complainant. CLERKENWELL.-(THIS DAY.) George Hughie was charged with assaulting Isaac Wheeldon, an officer of the County Court, and Joseph Brocker, his assistant, while in the execution of a pro cess from that court, against Henry Baker. From the evidence of the officer and his assistant, it appeared that the prisoner and Baker resided together at No. 7, Phillips's-buildings, Somers-town, where they carried on business as pipe• manufacturers. Yester day evening the officer went to arrest Baker, and upon entering the Hall, heard Mrs. Baker call out " Make off, Harry, here are the bums," immediately after which Hughie came up to them in the Hall, and endeavoured to prevent them passing in, and struck Wheeldon a violent blow, which blackened his eye and also struck Brookes several times. They rtated that they had repeatedly told Hughie they were officers of the County Court, but he still continued to strike at them, until a policeman arrived, when he was given into custody. The prisoner, In his defence, denied that the complain. ants had ever informed him who they were, and called Mrs. Baker, who swore that they rushed past Hughie in a most violent manner, and pushed him about very roughly in the Hall, without having, either then or sub sequently, described themselves as bailiffs. Mr. GREENWOOD said although a recent Act enlarged the powers of the 9th Geo. IV., and empowered two magistrates to decide summarily in cases of attacks, or attempts at rescue, upon bai4ffs of the Small Debts Court, still he thought under all the circumstances of the present case, it would be most advisable to send it to a jury, and he should, therefore, commit the prisoner for trial at the ensuing sessions, but would accept bail for his appearance.

FALMOUTH, THURSDAY EVENING, NOV. 12.—Since writing the preceding particulars per Gorgon, we have possessed ourselves of the following more explicit ac count of Mr. Hood's mission : Mr. Hood's mission has failed, the chief cause being the disinclination the French Minister in the River Plate had to acknowledge the authority of Mr. Hood. The point on which the misunderstanding between Mr. Hood and Baron Deffaudis has arisen is, " Whether Mr. Hood's instructions were definite as to raising the blockade of Buenos Ayres, previous to Rosas withdraw. ing the Argentine troops from the Banda Oriental." The result has been, that the truce which had existed for a short time between the besiegers and the be sieged in Monte Video terminated on the day of Mr. Hood's departure. _ The bloCkade of Buenos Ayres is still enforced, al though a considerable contraband trade is nevertheless carried on between Monte Video and Buenos Ayres it self. The River Parana is still nominally kept open, the Comus being anchored at Obligado to prevent the erection of batteries. When the Gorgon left Monte Video, the following was the disposition of the English squadron : At Monte Video.—The Vernon (flag) ; the Eagle, Melampus, Alecto (steam-vessel), and Griffon. At Buenos Ayres.—The Firebrand steam-vessel, and the Spider. At Colonia.—The Satellite. At Biscayna.—The Acorn and the Lizard steamer. At Obligado.—The Comus and the Harpy steam vessels. At Moldonado.—The Racer and the Dolphin. At Rio Janeiro.—The Caragoa and the Penguin packet. The Grecian was on her passage to Monte Video from Rio. SPANISH DEBT. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,—As many of your readers are doubtless inte rested in the settlement of the Spanish Debt, I venture to request the favour of your inserting the following observations relative thereto in the columns of your paper. The credit of the Spanish Government having so far improved as to have enabled it to obtain a loan recently of 2,000,000/. from native capitalists, at 5 per cent., it might be supposed that the marketable value of its Three per Cent. Stock, on which interest is regularly paid would be 60. Its reaching this value is, however, effec-, tually prevented by the depressing influence of the large amount of unliquidated stocks at present in circulation, as long as any portion of which remains unprovided for, Spanish credit can never be effectually restored. But it a general compromise with the whole of the creditors, on terms not overburdensome to Spain, could be effected, then both parties would be immediately benefited, and Spanish Stook would, in a short time, command a price not contemplated, perhaps, by either at present. To effect so desirable an object, I would suggest that the Spanish Government be invited to incorporate, within a limited period, the whole of the present dormant stocks, whether representing the capital of the original loans, or the arrears of interest thereon, into a new stock, bearing 1 per cent. into est. Such an offer would probably be acceptable to the Government, and would stimulate it to make the requisite exertions for carrying it into effect. It is at least certain that any scheme for the supposed benefit of one particular class of the cre ditors only, irrespective of the interests of the other parties concerned, would, at the Fresent day, be not only impracticable but absurd.—l am, Sir, your obedient ser vent, A BONDHOLDER Nov. 13,1846. IMPERIAL BRAZIL /AN MINING COMPANY. Yesterday the forty-first half yearly meeting of tha Imperial Brazilian :►lining Company was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street. Joshua Walker, Esq., presided, and called upon tbt secretary to read the report prepared by the directors, which he regretted was rather unfavourable in its cha racter. This document stated that the negotiations alluded t( in their last report, for the acquisition of more mining property in Brazil, though favourably progressing at the time of the last advices from the chief commissioner, had nut yet been concluded. No impediment, however, then appeared to an early termination of the treaty, and the directors hoped it would be their duty before long to call the shareholders together, and announce that the property in question was in the possession of the company, and that a portion of the force of the Gongo Foco district was employed on that new mine, which held out the prospect of a speedy return, and of making amends for the long delayed hopes which the proprietary had to bear. In the event of the chief commissioner being unable to bring the present negotiation to a favourable conclusion, he had received instructions to direct his im mediate attention to another project. Under these cir cumstances, the directors hoped the shareholders would still continue their confidence, and leave these negotia tions in their hands without more explicit declarations on the present occasion. The quantity of gold pro duced during the six months ending June, 1846, amounted to 15,31 b. 7oz. 15dwts., being an increase of 881 b. 2oz. 15dwts. over the produce of the six months ending June, 1845, but still insufficient to prevent loss to the company; for while the produce of the half-year terminating in June last realised about 7,3171., the ex penditure during the same period amounted to 10,3771. 4s. 9d., leaving a deficit of upwards of 3,0591. The directors were aware that the establishment was too large and excessive, when compared with the produce of the mine, and they were determined on reducing it at every favourable opportunity. To supply the deficiency on the half-year, 83 milrees had been sold, and they produced 7,0391. The report was adopted, and the meeting separated. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, FRIDAY.—The Queen and Prince Albert rode out on horseback this morning, accompanied by Prince Edward of Saxe Weimar. Lady Portman, Lady in Waiting, was in attendance on her Majesty.

TUE GUN COTTON AND THE BOARD OF ORDNANCE. —The Board of Ordnance has rejected the proposal for the use of Schoubein's gun cotton in the British army.

The attendance was Ter, numerous. Mr. Charles Tiffin presided.

DUTCH AND GERTSTAN PAYERS. BERLIN, Nov 3.—Letters from Schwerin have been received here, which state that the Grand Duke is in deed personally inclined to the accession of this coiintry to the Zolverein, but the realisation of the step meets widi important and almost irresistible obstacles. CELLE, Nov. s.—Yesterday the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Altenburg, with the Princesses, their daughters, arrived at the palace here. The Crown Prince' and Princess went to meet them as far as Lehrte, and re turned with them. It is said that his; Majesty the King will shortly honour Celle with his presence, and spend some days with his illustrious relatives and children. FROM NORTH GERMANY, Nov. 4.—We hear, that . ne • gotiations have already commenced between Prussia and. Hanover, for the purpose of concluding some arrange ments. in common respecting trade and navigation. The President of the Board . o f T r ad e , Roetne, and- Baron von Patow, are said to be very active in these nertia• Lions, on the part of. Prussia, and interest themselves in favour of differential duties, because in their opinion these duties can only raise the commerce of Germany to the highest degree of prosperity. Under these circum stances, the commercial convention betwecn Prussia and England, which will shortly expire, will most probably not be renewed on the present footing. FRONTIERS OF G A LUCIA, Nov.

Svc,. a.—To-day the better qualities of yellow and grey West India Sugar were much sought after, and the rates offered fully equal to those previously current, but there was only a small quantity on show, whilst inferior and brown kinds met with a dull demand, although offered at a reduc. tion on last Friday's rates of 6d to is per cwt. REFINED.—To-day there was little business transacted by the home trade in refined goods, notwithstanding brown lumps could be obtained at 625 to 63s 6d, and standard lumps at 64s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar sells much more freely and at stiffer rates, first sort bringing 32s 6d to 338 per cwt. _ . _ _ _ _ MAunmus.—lmporters have manifested firmness this week, and retrained from bringing any to public sale; good and fine yellow descriptions have met with attention, and the parcels sold privately were at full rates. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Bengal Sugar met with at tention, and 3,094 bags at public sale were sold at 6d to ls per cwt advance for white Benares, and the rise on superior grainy yellow was 6d, whilst all other kinds fully sustained the former value. FORRIGN.—AII kinds of Sugar available for home consump tion are held with firmness, none has been offered at auction this week, and the deliveries are still exceeding the arrivals. There has been little inquiry after brown Brazil, but prices remain at 40s to 445, whilst other qualities have been dis posed of to a fair extent at firm rates. COFFEE.—This afternoon there was a stronger desire ma nifested to operate in Native Ceylon. and 2,207 bags at auc tion were chiefly sold at previous rates, but not above. SPlRlTS.—lmporters of Jamaica Rum; are not inclined to submit to any reduction in the value, but all sorts have been sparingly dealt in. Demerara has been sparingly dealt in, but holders are unwilling to take lower rates. Leeward Island has been in excellent request, and the sup ply being small, buyers are compelled to pay stiff rates. East India is wanted, but the trade are not disposed to pay any further advance, small as the supply is. There has been less demand for Brendy this week and lower prices have been taken for the older sorts, there being an increased quantity on offer; butyoung kinds are held for the for mer value. For British Spirits the demand is yet active. Eng. lish Corn at lls 3d, Scotch and Irish Its 2d to Its 3d per gallon. English Gin 17 under lOs 3d, and 22 under 9s 9d. W THA.—There has been an increased desire manifested by the town and country trade to get supplied, and speculators are turning their attention to both black and green Tea; the tendency of prices is upwards, and there is a less quantity offering for sale. That the market should have assumed a more healthy appearance is not to be wondered at, 'when it is taken into consideration that all kinds are cheap, and under the cost of importation. The arrivals during the past ten months exceeded those of last year by 1,8,92,0001b5.

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE NORTH LONDON RAlL WAY.—Yesterday morning, between eight and nine o'clock, an accident of a most frightful character oc curred at the Camden Town station of the above rail way. It appears that at that hour some of the servants of the company were removing luggage from a luggage train which had just arrived. Amongst the men so em ployed was Charles Lee, aged 27, who got suddenly jammed between the carriages by the sudden backing of the engine siter it had been made fast, without giving any signal. The deceased was so dreadfully crushed in the chest, that although he was removed forthwith to the University College Hospital, he died in about ten mi nutes. An inquest was commenced in the evening by Mr. Mills, the Deputy Coroner, but owing to the alleged__ gross neglect of certain parties the inquiry was adjourned to six o'clock on Monday evening. The French Plays were last evening attended by the following distinguished persons :—Prince Louis Napoleon, Earl of Chesterfield, the Russian Ambassador,.

Ann Cook said she was a married woman, but separated from her husband, and had cohabited with the deceased for the last three months. On Thursday night week the deceased and witness went into the Crown and Seven Stars, in Rosemary-lane, Whitechapel, when some words and blcws ensued between the deceased and the potman, a young man named John Duggin, now in custody. Duggin kicked the deceased in the lower part of his body. The following day he was seen by Mr. Liddle, the parish surgeon, who recommended his re moval to the hospital, where he died on Sunday last. The coroner adjourned the inquiry for the production of urther evidence. IMPORTANT ACHIEVEMENT.—V ESSELS ON S HOES . —The rempleman, Prowse master, of Liverpool, of 500 tons burden, wrecked in Ballyteigne Bay, the 10th ult., and considered at the time not worth the expense and risk of getting off, was on Saturday morning towed into the new pier of Kilmore, where she now lies in perfect safety. This has been achieved by our respected town!- roan, Mr. Sparrow, under the directions of Captain Mackey, agent to the Liverpool underwriters. The plan taken was by building inside the vessel a watertight chest that sustained her weight ; and we should say. from our slight knowledge of such matters, that this plan would be admirably adapted, end is by far the beet method yet devised that c ould be adopted to float the Great Bi itain.— Wexford Independent.
