MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE.-(MONDAY.) The arrivals of English Wheat up to our market last week were on a very limited scale, coastwise as well as by land carriage and samples. Of all other kinds of Grain of home produce the receipts were scanty, while from Ireland and Scotland they were unimportant. Taking the foreign supplies as a whole they were good, but no particular article came heavily to hand. Fresh up, a fair average quantity of Eng lish Wheat was received, in good condition ; yet the actual quantity on offer—owing to nearly the whole of the late un sold samples being previously disposed of—was compara tively small, owing to which the demand for most descrip tions was steady, at an improvement in the cur rencies obtained on Monday last of fully Is per quarter, and at which a good clearance was effected. The show of free foreign Wheat was tolerably extensive, yet the inquiry for that article was very firm, and a good business was doing in it at prices a trifle over those paid last week, at which the holders were by no means anxious sellers. Very little Wheat, or, indeed, any other grain, was on offer in bond; yet the supply proved, owing to the absence of spe culative buyers, fully adequate to meet the wants of the dealers. In prices we have no alteration to notice. A few hundred quarters of bonded Wheat sold for the French markets at full prices. The quantity of Barley was rather limited. Selected parcels of Malting moved off readily, at extreme currencies, but the mid dling and inferior kinds commanded very little attention, though we cannot call them cheaper. There was rather more inquiry for Malt, but the high rates demanded for that article, and the small quantity on show, checked business. The trade, however, may be called steady, at full prices. With Oats, we were very scantily supplied. Fine parcels were held at a trifle more money, but all other kinds were much neglected. The transactions were by no means large. For Beans the inquiry was heavy, at previous figures. The show of foreign Peas being large, the trade was dull, at barely stationary prices. In b lour, comparatively little was doing, at last week's figures.

We had on offer to-day about 300 Beasts, 650 Sheep, and 10 Calves from abroad, in middling condition. With home-fed Beasts we were but moderately supplied. The few prime Scots on sale commanded a very ready sale, at prices fully equal to those obtained on this day se'nnight, but the mid dling and inferior breeds, which formed the bulk of the supply, were very dull, and somewhat lower. From the northern districts we received 800 Shorthorns, from the western and midland counties 900 Herefords, 90 Devona, &c., and from other parts of England 500 of various breeds. The numbers of Sheep were moderately extensive, and of prime quality. The best old Downs sold at late rates, but all other breeds were quite 2d. per 81bs. lower.

Oa Wednes day, which is the last day of term, his Lordship will hear motions, and after the first seal his Lordship will probably take original causes. IN RE ROBSON--PETITION OF RIGHT. Our readers will recollect that this case, which came before the Court upon an application for a commission to inquire into the allegation of a petition of right, was ordered to stand over till to-day, in order to give the Attorney-General an opportunity of consi dering what course he would adopt on behalf of the Crown. On the case being called on this morn iug, it was stated that there was no objection to the course proposed to be pursued by the petitioner. CHRISTIAN v. FOSTER. The arguments in this part-heard appealwere resumed and concluded to-day, and The LORD CHANCELLOR said he would give judgment on Wednesday.

The police had been after her for some time, but without success and the bankrupt was taken by them in the act of flight. Mitchell, to whom Mrs. Davis had made the assignment, had been examined, end that was the only account of the bankrupt's affair's which had come to the The Learned COMMISSIONER asked whether they had not succeeded in biking any property? Mr. Hudson said, when the bankruptcy took place the messenger went to the place he had been inhabiting with his supposed wife, but all the property had been got away; but, after the bankrupt's arrest they took advice, and seized some of the property assigned by Mrs. Davis, on the ground that if bankrupt was married to her she could not assign the goods being sent in by bankrupt, although the business was carried on in her name. The bankrupt was then examined, but refused to say whether he was married to Mrs. Davis or not. _ The Learned COMMISSIONEU said that the bankrupt was not bound to answer, if the answer would criminate him. Mr. Hudson put his question in another form, and re quired to know whether his wife had told him of the disposal of the property, either before or after his arrest? The COMMISSIONER—You must not say " his wife," but ask whether it was Mrs. Davis, or the woman he culled his wife. Mr. Stammers objected that even such a question might lead to a criminal inference, and be collateral evidence of the bankrupt was indicted for bigamy, and, on the authority of the case " Re Kirby," in Montagu's Report, a bankrupt was not bound tc answer a question to obtain indirectly that which could not be got in evi dence directly. The Learned COMMISSIONER said that it might be taken so far as the civil effect of the answer went, though not to be used criminally. The bankrupt was then examined as to the disposal of his goods, and be declared, that although he had heard where some goods were taken to within a fortnight, and had the address written for him, he could not remember it. His memory was " that bad," he could not remember, and he was a bad scholar, and could not read without a good light and plenty of time. He had given up the address to his accountant. He could not say who had given him the address. The Learned COMMISSIONER said he was on that oc casion inclined to commit the bankrupt, but perhaps a private examination would give him the opportunity to refresh his memory. The examination was adjourned for a fortnight. Bankrupt admitted that he was daily supported in prison from the proceeds of the sales by " his wife." Ce.IMINAL CO UHT—(ThIS DAY.) OLD COUR74. These sessions, the first of the present mayoralty, commenced to-day before the Lord Mayor (Sir George Carroll), the Recorder, the Sheriff's, and other of the civic dignataries. According to the Calendar, there are 139 males for trial, and 32 females, whose offences may be thus stated :—Lareeny, grand and petit, 53 ; cutting and wounding persons, with intent to murder, 4; stab bing and beating, with intent to no bodily harm, 2 ; manslaughter, 3; burglary in dwelling houses, ware houses, &c., 6; forgery, and uttering forged instrnments, 2; embezzlement by clerks and servants, 12; feloniously uttering counterfeit coin, 2 ; unlawfully possessing the like, with intent to utter, 1; housebreaking and lar ceny therein, 8 ; stealing goods and money in dwelling houses, 5 ; stealing goods and money from the person, 16 ; robbery by domestic servants, 34 ; receiving stolen property with a guilty knowledge, 1 • robberies on the public way with violence, 6 ; robbery on the river Thames, 1 ; ditto in public ocks and ports of entry, 1 ; obtaining goods and 'money under false pretexts, 2 ; conspiracy, with intent to commit fraud, 2 ; assault on constable in the execution of duty, 1 ; ditto, with intent to violate and carnally know, 1 ; ditto and endeavour to excite to commit a misdemeanour, 1 ; beating and wounding with intent to do bodily harm, 1 ; rape upon children, 3 ; having moulds in their posses sion for the purpose of coining, 2 ; misdemeanors of various kinds, 3 ; shopbreaking, and larceny therein, 1; robbery and breaking out of dwelling-house, 1. The grand jury having been sworn, and The RECORDER having delivered his charge to them, observing upon the' different offences contained in the Calendar, they retired to the performance of their duties, and the Court in the meantime proceeded to swear in the petit jury. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) The November general sessions for the trial of offences committed within the district of Westminster, commenced this day at twelve o'clock. The grand jury having been sworn, the Assistant- Judge charged them very briefly, and after the lapse of a considerable time a true bill was sent in against Thomas Jones, who was indicted for stealing half-a crown and three shillings, the property of Mr. J. Well-, spring, chemist and druggist, of No. 3, Chandos-street, Charing-cross._ _ _ It appeared from the evidence of the prosecutor and his apprentice, that on the 15th inst. the prisoner entered the shop while there was no person there, and, leaning over the counter, drew out the till, from which he took the above sum, and then ran away. He was, however, followed by the apprentice, who never lost sight of him until he was taken into custody, at the corner of Hen , rietta-street, Covent- garden. The prisoner was convicted, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment, with hard labour, six weeks of which were to be solitary. Edward Bishop, a well-known pickpocket, was coa -1 victed of stealing a silk handkerchief from the person of Thomas Lock, and was sentenced to six months' impri sonment, with hard labour. _ _ _ Margaret Macarthy was found Guilty of stealing three shawls, the property of Charles Tomkins and another. She was sentenced to four months' imprisonment. Henry Williams pleaded Guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing 10s., the property of Harriet Evans, with whom he lodged, and was sentenced to three months' imprisonment. MARLBRO'-STREET—(THIS DAY.) T. M. Wheeler and John Whithorn were charged with assaulting William Rogers, in Dean-street. The complainant said he was passing the defendant Wheeler's door, in Dean-street, this morning about one o'clock, in company with his wife and a friend, when Wheeler grossly insulted him, and then knocked him down among some bricks and rubbish. Police-constable C 57, saw a crowd of about 50 per sons come out of a public-house about one o'clock, and the defendant Wheeler, after passing some way along the street, knocked the complainant down. When he had Wheeler in custody, the other defendant, Whit • horn, attempted to rescue him. The constable said there was a Chartist Society there, which met every Sunday evening, the members of which, after their meet ing, adjourned to the public-house, and created a great deal of disturbance in Dean-street every Sunday night and Monday morning. The defendant Wheeler said the prosecutor had charged him with robbing the funds of the society, and perhaps ho was irritated, but he denied striking him as had been stated. Mr. HARDWICK—What are you? Wheeler—Secre• tary to a land society for the purchasing of allotments. The prosecutor denied having charged him with robbing the society. After hearing various witnesses, whose evidence did not seem to throw the least light on the subject, Mr. HARDWICK said the violence made use of was not justifiable. He fined the defendant Wheeler 41., or one month in the House of Correction; and Whithorn, for the assault on the :police, 21., or fourteen days in the House of Correction. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.) STAINES V. TAYLOR. The arguments in this part-heard case were resumed to-day, and occupied his Lordship the whole morning. VICE - CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.) (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) The further arguments in the part-heard case of Terry v. Wacher occupied his Honour the whole day. (Before Sir J. K. BRUCE.) GEARY v. NORTON. This was a cause in which the plaintiffs, Messrs. Geary and Co., s h aw l manufacturers, in Leeds, sought for the continuance as well as the costs of an injunction that had been obtained last year to prevent the defend ants, James Norton and James Ford Haneford, selling an article called the Royal Mecklin Shawl, which had been registered by the plaintiffs. It appeared that the defendants, who travelled about for business, had obtained an order from a person named Burrell to supply him with a number of the shawls in question, and that Norton accordingly went to a Mr. Scott, shawl manufacturer, in Leicestershire, and got the order executed. This coming to the ears of the plaintiffs, they had a correspondence with the defendants, and eventually obtained the injunction. The infringement of the patent was admitted by the defend ants, but they contended that th e i n j unct i on was an un called-for and vexatious proceeding, they having but four days before it had been obtained, and on the dis covery of the fact of the shawl being a patent article, wrote to the defendants, promising to suspend the sale of all the shawls of this description in their possession, of which there was a large number. At the conclusion of the arguments, His Horrouß said he would order the defendants to pay the general costs, and would continue the injunction. QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.) THE QUEEN V. THE OVERSEERS OF KIRBY LONSDALE. In this case a mandamus had been obtained in the Bail Court, at the instance of a person named Tennant, who had.been a paid assistant-overseer of the parish, but who had been discharged from that office by the Poor law Commissioners for improper conduct, calling upon the overseers of the parish to produce the authority under which they held their offices. Mr. GODSON, Q.C., now applied to the Court to dis charge the rule with costs. He read an affidavit from Alderman Thompson, the largest proprietor in the town ship, stating that the value of Tennant's property in the parish was only 10L 16s. a year, that the overseers were appointed by the votes of nearly the whole of the parish, that the conduct of Tennant had been refractory and litigious, and that his only motive in the proceeding was to harass and annoy the overseers so appointed. He was supported in his application by a person named Grundy, who appeared anxious to become one of the overseers, but it appeared by the affidavit that he was not a substantial householder, and not a fit person to hold such an office. If be felt aggrieved he might ap peal to the sessions, or bring the matter by certiorari into this Court. He had, however, appealed, but un successfully, and he now came to this Court in order that he might annoy the parties, and put them to great expense. Mr. RAMSEY, who was with Mr. Godson, argued that such an application was wholly unprecedented and untenable. _ _ _ _ _ Mr. PASHLEY argued, on the other hand, that a party who was interested in the appointments, like Mr. Ten nant, had a perfect right to call upon the overseers to show by what authority they held their offices, espe cially as he was prepared to show that they were not duly appointed. He cited the authority of Lord Camp bell, who, when Attorney-General, so argued, and cases in which the Court had granted writs of mandamus to inspect the accounts and other documents appertaining to the affairs of the parish in which they were rated inhabitants. A ratepayer, quite irrespective of the amount of which he was rated, had a perfect right to make such an inspection: it would be most unjust to refuse him an opportunity of doing so, because, though his stake might be small, he had to contribute his quota to the expenses of the parish, and he had a perfect right to examine the expenditure. He submitted that the rule should be made absolute. _ . - The Counr considered that the opposition was un precedented and uncalled for. The rule must, therefore. be discharged, with costs. Mr. Justice COLERIDGE regretted that ha granted the rule in the first instance; he should not have acceded to it if the facts detailed to-day had been before him. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) YATES V. THE COMMIAIONERS FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE CITY OF WESTMINSTER.--CONSTRUCTION OF THE LANDS' CLAUSFS CONSOLIDATION ACT. Mr. WORDSWORTH, on behalf of Mr. Yates, applied for a rule, directed to the Commissioners for the Im provement of the City of Westminster, calling on them to chow cause why they did not deliver up to Mr. Yates the appointment of an arbitrator, in order that it might be made a rule of Court to enforce an award. The question would affect the construction of the Lands' Clauses Consolidation Act, as passed in the last session of Parliament, His client was the proprietor and occupier of some premises in Tothill-street, West minster, and he received notice from tiae Commissioners that his property was required for the purposes of the Act under which they were appointed. Mr. Yates sent in his claim, and the matter under certain provisions was referred to arbitration. The result was that the sum of 1,7261. Bs. was awarded to Mr. Yates. That award gave great dissatisfaction to the Commissioners, who were determined to resist it. By the Act appointing the Commissioners, the Lands' Clauses Consolidation Act was incorporated with it. By these joint Acts it was enacted that, in case any dispute as to the amount of compensation should arise, the matter might be referred to arbitration, each side choosing an arbitrator, who in their turn should choose an umpire. The matter being once submitted to arbitration, could not be withdrawn un less by consent of all parties ; and the party in possession of the award and the documents submitting the case to arbitration were compelled to furnish copies, and to allow inspection and use of the original. The Commissioners in this case were applied to to give up the award and submission, in order that they might be made a rule of Court as it, was expressly provided in the Act, but they refused to do so, as a copy had been furnished but the original detained. Mr. Justice ERLE—The question is whether the rule is to be to show cause why the original document should not be delivered up, or why the authenticated copy should not be made a rule of Court. Mr. WORDSWORTH said that was the difficulty, but the rule and alternative could be given. Then a very important question arose, as to what documents con stituted the submission under the 25th section of the Act. The question must be decided very shortly, as it would affect the interest of every railway com pany, or company for improvement, which . had been formed since the passino• of the Lands' Clauses Con solidation Act. The Learned Counsel then cited several authorities as to the mode in which the rule should be given. Mr. Justice ERLE granted a rule nisi, to show cause why the original doc umen t s s h ou ld not be delivered up, or in default, why the copy should not be made a rule of Court instead, COMMON PLEAS-(THIS DAY.) MACEY V. THOMAS. Mr. Sergeant WILKINS moved fora rule nisi for a new trial in this case, on the grounds that the verdict was against evidence and surprise. The action was tried last week at the Guildhall, and the verdict was for the defendant. It was to recover 100/. on two bills of exchange, andwere for the purchase of the goo d- w ill o f a coffee-house in Bishopsgate-street. The defence was that the extent of the business had been misrepresented by the plaintiff, and this defence, which came upon the plaintiff by surprise, was alleged by pl a i nt iff to be un founded. Rule nisi granted. BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.) (Before Mr. Commissioner SHEPHERD ) IN RE BINGLEY. Charles Binglay, described as of Charles-street, Spital fields, trimming-manufacturer, was brought up in cus tody to pass his last examination. He was supported by Mr. Stammers as counsel, and opposed by Mr. Hudson as solicitor to the assignees. It appeared that no accounts had been furnished by the bankrupt to the assignees, but Mr. Stammers con tended that under the Act of Parliament the assignees were bound when the bankrupt was in prison to send in an accountant, and afford the bankrupt access to his books. Mr. Hudson, in reply, argued that the Act was not compulsory on the assignees, but merely permissive, and that under all the circumstances of the ease they would not have been justified in doing so. The Learned COMMISSIONER acquiesced, especially as it appeared that the bankrupt had engaged some person to make out his accounts. His Honour said he must adjourn the examination until the accounts were furnished. Mr. HunsoN said this was a very complicated case, and he had, on behalf of the assignees, to put it forth as one of gross fraud. It appeared that he had been for a long time carrying on business in different places, and latterly was married to a Mrs. Davis, who carried on the same business. Ile was not only married to her, but it would, no doubt, be proved that he had several other wives, and that there bad been a regular conspiracy. Just previously to the bankruptcy, the bankrupt had obtained pood3 to a large amount from different persons, some of which bad found their way to Mrs. Davis's place of business, but she, after assigning certain property and debts to a person named Mitchell, who had married her daughter, absconded with the property OPENING THE PORTS. On Saturday, at half-past four o'clock, according to previous appointment, Lord John Russell received, at his official residence, the members of four different deputations, appointed at recent metropolitan meetings; got up in favour of opening the ports to the free admis - sion of foreign food, and at which memorials were agreed to be presented to his Lordship by the deputations in question. The meetings referred to were held in the Borough, at the London Tavern, the Crown and Anchor, the Riding School, and John-street Institution, in the parish of St. Pancras. Mr. Lea Stephens was entrusted with the Borough memorial, the Rev. W. Stoddart with the one from the Crown and Anchor, and Dr. Bird and Mr. Alexander Campbell were entrusted with the others. In addition, there were present Mr. Charles Cochrane, Mr. Knighten, Mr, Ellis, and Mr. Savage. His Lordship received the deputation with his usual urbanity, and having requested them to be seated, the different memo rials were presented in succession. Mr. Cochrane, as the spokesman of the deputation, impressed on his Lordship the importance in the present state of the country, and, with every prospect of a famine, the necessity of conceding to the prayer of the memorialists. He cited a number of instances in which the greatest privations had been suiThred through the high price of provisions, and especially recalled to his Lordship's recollection his declaration contained in his address to the city of London, delivered about this time last year. His Lordship, having listened with great attention, said that should there be any emergency requiring extraordinary measures, he would be prepared to advise his colleagues to adopt them, and when Par liament met he would be prepared to justify his conduct. Mr. Cochrane expressed himself dissatisfied, and wished nii Lordship to be more precise in what he would con sider "an extraordinary emergency," but his Lordship said that he could give no further explanation. The deputation then withdrew. THE ROYAL SOCIETY AND M. LEVERRIER.—We hear, with pleasure, that the council of the Royal So ciety have awarded the Copley m e d a l t o M.

CAUTION.—BA D HALF- SOVER EIGNS.—The public should be on their guard against the passers of bad money. A number of bad halt'-sovereigns, composed of a sort of metal resembling zinc and gilded by the elec tro-plating process, are now in circulation. They are not easily to be detected by the ring, .and they are well ex ecuted. The deficiency of their weight, however, im mediately shows they are counterfeits. .THE AIURDERESS OF THE - POLICEMAN.—It is rather an extraordinary fact connected with the case, that when the murderess after committing the deed, rent in a fly to the statiun-house for the piirposo of surrendering herself, she was driven there by her os n brother ; the sergeant who received her was her, step father ; and the housekeeper at the station-house was her own mother.—Bristol Times.

The Penguin packet, Lieutenant Leslie, came in this evening at aboat seven o'clock from the Brazils, bringing mails and dates from Rio Janeiro to the 3d of October ; Bahia, the 15th; and Pernambuco, the 22d. The. following are passen gers by ber—viz , Mr. and Mrs. F. Grigg and four children; Mr. Petty, Mr. de St. Dalmas, Mr. Hadfield, Mr. Banziger, Mrs. Virtue, and Miss Gray, from Rio Janeiro; and Mr. Davenport from Bahia; and she has on fr&ght about 16,0001. in gold and precious stones. Exchange at Rio, 271 and 28 ; Bahia, 27i ; an d a t Pernambuco, 28. At Ri o the cofee supply was abun dant; and sales, the fortnight prior to the departure of the packet, amounted to 70,000 bags, leaving a residue of 40,000 bags stock. Sugar, although scarce in the market, was expected to be a large crop. Freights at Rio firm, at 50s. and 5 per cent. ; but few vessels in port. - At Bahia, freights ranged from 4.05. to 50s. Her Majesty's brigantine Griffon had arrived at Rio on the Ist of October, in thirteen days, from Monte Video. Political affairs remained in the same state as when the Gorgon left on the 13th of September. The Penguin left at Rio her Majesty s ship Crescent, Curacoa, Swift packet, and Dido ; the - -Spider was ex pected there daily from the River Plate en route to Eng land, and her Majesty's brig Grecian bad sailed from Rio for the River Plate and China. The Antelope steamer, from Liverpool, arrived at Bahia on the 12th of Octobcr, and proceeded on the lath for Rio Janeiro. The Craven packet, from Falmouth, arrived at Bahia on the 15th of October, and her Majesty's steamer De vastation had sailed from that place for Ascension. The hired barque Palestine, from New Zealand, having on board Sir George Gippa and lady, as also Lieutenant Wharton, and part of the crew of her Majesty's late brig Osprey, touched at Bahia on the 15th of October ; and the hired barque Posthumous, having on board Com mander Patten and the remainder of the crew of the Osprey, arrived at Rio on the 30th of September. Thr Penguin has made a quick passage home, but ex perienced very bad weather the last three days.— Times. FLANDERS MAIL. BRUSSELS, Nov. 19.—0 n the 17th, the English steamer the Duke of Cornwall arrived at Ostend, with the Empress Dowager of Brazil, who is travelling under the name of Countess Mondello. Her Majesty, with her daughter the Duchess Braganza, set out on the 18th at seven o'clock by a special train for Aix In Chapelle. BRUSSELS, Nov. 20. —The political discussion on the address was terminated to-day in the Chamber of Deputies. The amendment proposed by Mr. Bugler, which raised the question of confidence, or, more pro- perly speaking, of distrust in the Ministry, was rejected by a majority of 52 to 32. Thus the Chamber, by a majority of 10, has decided against the opposition. The Chamber then commenced the discussion on the paragraphs. The examination of the budgets in the Chambers is either terminated or very nearly so in the sections, Several of them have commenced the examination of the project law, relative to the several measures to be taken, in consequence of the dearness of provisions, and on the crisis of our linen manufacture. In the first section, Mr. Rodenbach propoied; and was supported by several Meinbers; that - 'the credit, for, one million two hundred thou s and f rancs as k e d b y the Go vernment to assist those communes the resources of which shall beproved insufficient, shall be raised to double that sum. Complaints have lately been made respecting the high price and scarcity of cast iron in. Belgium; and on the high import duties on foreign iron. We will only ob serve, that since the law of the 4th March, 1846, upon the entrePOts, that :inconvenience may easily be reme died, as respects articles destined to be re-exported. ' Very lately` we expressed a hope that merchants of Antwerp might find it possible, by making some efforts to attend to Antiverp the steamers which an American Company is fitting out for speedy organization of a line of steamers to trade with our continent with the inter vention of the Government of the limited states. A letter from Bremen addressed to the Augsburgh Gazette, announces to day that this communication will shortly be organized between New York and Bremen. All other natiom says' the correspondent, have attempted in vain to obtain this advantage. France is said to have desired it for Havre, England for Liverpool, Belgium for Antwerp, Holland for Rotterdam, and Denmark for Gluckstadt. The correpondent continues by enumerating the advantages which this negotiation will procure to Germany, which he seems to consider as already realised. A terrible accident took place yesterday at half-past seven in the evening in the coal mine of Saint Barbe, near Leruing. Seven workmen were going down into a shaft about 200 yards in depth, they had descended only a few yards, when the rope broke, and the unfortunate men fell to the bottom. Their death was instantaneous. They were so dreadfully mutilated that it was necessary to call all the workmen together in order to identify the dead bodies. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. GREAT WESTERN.--A great convenience and accom modation has just been provided at the Paddington terminus, by the appropriation of a waiting-room, well warmed and lighted, for second-class passengers; who, until lately, had no place to wait in, until the departure of the trains, than in the open space were the tickets are issued. Similar accommodation has also just been pro vided by the company for passengers travelling by the third-class (Parliamentary penny-a-mile) trains. NEW STATION ON lIIE EASTERN COUNTIES AT CAMBRIDGE.—In consequence of the great increase of traffic on this line, the station at Cambridge is found to be quite inadequate for the purposes for which it is required. The directors have, therefore, resolved to erect a splendid and commodious station, for which pur pose they have purchased upwards of fifty acres of land, which will be added to the site of the present station. INCREASE OF CHARGES FOR LIVE STOCK ON THE NORFOLK AND EASTERN COUNTlES.—Considerable dis satisfaction exists, we understand, amongst the farmers and graziers of the district, at the new regulations issued by these companies, which are considered vexa tious and oppressive, besides increasing the cattle rates one-fourth in comparison with their former scale. A meeting of the farming and grazing interests is to be held on Saturday next, at Norwich, to remonstrate on the matter. „ MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN OF IRELAND.— The num ber of men employed on this line, week ending the 15th, was 4,140, and 358 horses. If the calculation be correct that 260,0001. are at present paid per week to labourers employed on railways in progress of construction, the sum total outlay per annum upon railway works alone approaches to some thing like fourteen millions. MouraNs AND ST. ETIENNE.—The project of the route of this line by. Roanne is the subject of a com mission of inquiry in the department of Allier. The construction of this piece of line, which in itself does not exceed 62 miles, will afford an unbroken railway communication for Paris and Nantes with Lyons. The municipal council of Dijon have accepted the projet for the station which was proposed to them, and have voted the gratuitous surrender of the land belonging , to the town which may be necessary for the station. Some trifling modifications have been proposed, and it is expected that the works will be immediately com menced, in order to afford employment for the workmen of the town. LYONS.—The question as to the spot for the station is not yet decided. The Minister of Public Works, ac companied by the Under•Secretavy of State and the Prefect of the Seine, ; with several engineers, lately visited the ground. THE SALT MONOPOLY IN INDIA.—On this subject, one of considerable importance to the commercial com munity, our two commercial bodies, the Chamber of Commerce and the Commercial Association, have been co-operating, by means of subcommittees of their bodies respectively. The sub-committee of the Chamber of Commerce consists of Thomas Bazely, Esq., president of the Chamber, and Messrs. Alderman Kershaw, Vincent Potter, and Jacob Owen. That of the Commercial As sociation includes James Aspinall Turner, Esq., presi dent, Mr. Malcolm Ross„ vice president, and Messrs. James Atherton and John Peel. Mr. Hugh Fleming acts as secretary for the joint sub-committee, which which meets together in one of the committee rooms at the Town-ball. One of the means taken by this com mittee to bring the subject more fully under the notice of the community, was to prepare a requisition to the Mayor, requesting his worship to call a public meet ing of the manufacturers, merchants, bankers, and other inhabitants of the town, to take into consideration the salt-tax in India, and the injurious effects of the monopoly of the East India Company in this article. This requisition, which was headed with the names of Mr. Bazely, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Mr. J. A. Turner, president of the Commercial Asso ciation, was placed for signature in the Exchange, on Wednesday week, and in two days and a half received the signatures of upwards of a hundred of the most in fluential of our mercantile and manufacturing firms. On Monday last it was presented to the Mayor, who, we understand, has acceded to its request, and has ap pointed a public town's meeting to be held in the large room of the Town-ball, on Thursday next, at eleven o'clock, for the purpose stated in the requisition.—Man chester Examiner. RANSOM OF FREDERICK DOUGLASS.—Most of our readers will remember this eloquent anti-slavery advo cate's visit to Newcastle, and the strong sympathy he enlisted in behalf of his injured race. It is known that, as he was a runaway slave, he could not return to the United States, unless on certainty of being captured and sent back to his former owner. This circumstance in duced a philanthropic lady hi this town—a member of the Society of Friends, and long conspicuous for her services in the cause of negro emancipation—to commu nicate with the person who claimed Mr. Douglass as his property, to ascertain on what terms his freedom could be purchased. To that communication the slave holder promptly replied, stating the price to be 1501. This sum, it will delight the friends of emancipation to learn, has been forwarded to America, more than one half of it having been subscribed in this town, and Mr. .Douglass's ransom papers are now being transmitted to him. In conducting this transaction, great care was taken to avoid anything like a concession of the Slav,.. holder's right of property in Mr. Douglass.—Newcastle Guardian. A - serious accident occurred, on Saturday morning, to Westley's Great Western Railway express, travelling with great rapidity' to save the early train with the morning newspapers. In a narrow part of the road ap proaching the railway, the road is broken up for repair, and the ground laid out for building. It being dark, the driver did not ohs , rye a cart laden with bricks in his way, with which he came in contact, and the express was completely thro wn over. The driver escaped with some severe contusions, and his front teeth were broken ; the young man with him, besides severe bruises, had his collar-bone broken. • LAW INTELLWENCE. VICE• CHANCERY COURT, Aion. 21. (Before Viei-Chancellor Sir J: C. Wimun.) - PENNINGTON -V. BUCKLY. Mr. ROMILLY, who appeared for the plaintiff, stated the case, from which it appeared that the Rev. Abel Collin Launder, of Nottingham, by a will, dated the 31st of August, 1801, after making several devizes, &c., bequeathed to Mr. .J. Rawson'and to Mr. John Exley and others, heirs in trust, all the stock standing in his name in the Three per Cent. Consols, with specific direction to pay the same to Margaret Morton and others, and to pay, or cause to be paid, the interest of other stock to certain nnbeneficed curates in Nottingham, whose income and salaries did not exceed 351., donations after the following rate, viz., to unmarried curates 10/., to a married curt:te with a family 201.; and it was the intention of the testator no donation ;If this kiud should be given more than once to the same party; and that in case of such donations not being claimed, they should be considered as being lapsed, and go to the Rer,ll. Thorp and others, afterwards mentioned in his will, Mr. T. J. Rawson died on the 12th of October, 1843, and appointed by his will the plaintiffs his executors. Ain - . Margaret Norton died in the April of 1843, and some of defendants claimed the money she left as a part of ti;e personal residuary property of the testator, Abel Cohn Launder, whose sole representatives they alleged thems,llves to be. The Rev. George Wilkins, Archdeacon of Nottingham, claimed ex officio to be entitled to 4,418 L 10s. 3d. divi dends accruing since the death of Mrs. Norton under the will of the testator. After the arguments bad concluded, His HONOUR said he would reserve his judgn.lent till he had read the will. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH; Nov. 21. SPENCER V. MAYNARD, AND OTHERS. This was an action brought by the plaintiff in form& pauperis to recover compensation for an assault and false imprisonment for six months in the Northallerton House of Correction, to which he had been committed by the defendants, who are magistrates of the West Riding of Yorkshire. The. case was tried some time ago, when the jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, but the compensation tlu y awarded was the smallest coin in the realm. A rule was subsequently obtained calling upon the defendants to show cause why thEy should not pay certain costs incurred by the plaintiff in unsuccessfully endeavouring to obtain his liberation by means of an habeas corpus. Mr. KNOWLES, Q.C., showed cause against the rule. He said the defendants committed the plaintiff on an in formation which was laid before them by a person named Dyer, who was the plaintiff's landlord, setting forth that he had fraudulently removed his goods, in order to avoid a distress. After being two months in prison, ho obtained a writ of habeas corpus, on the ground that the conviction was informal, and was brought up before Mr. Justice Coleridge, who, as the party who originally lodged the information had lodged another free from the defects of the old one, sent the plaintiff hack to prison. Mr. Jackson, the plaintiff's attorney, had advised him not to attend to the magistrates, but the plaintiff and three others were committed. An appeal was made to the Quarter Sessions, where Jackson said this—" Only quash this indictment against the three, and I'll consent that it shall be confirmed as against Spencer." The plaintiff went back to prison, applied for the habeas corpus, was unsuccessful, and remained there the full term. The Learned Judge who tried the case told the jury that they could not include the expenses in their verdict. The plaintiff by his declaration could not recover ex penses, but damages, because they arose out of an act on his own part quite irrespective of the object- for which he sought compensation. Mr. BARNES, Q.C., held, on the other band, that the expenses were incurred by the plaintiff in order to ob tain his liberation, of which he had been deprived by the acts of the defendants, that he was driven to incur them, and that the cost was one which might have been included in a general verdict. Mr. HALL, who was on the same side, instanced Oar expense as the value the plaintiff put upon his liberty, and contended that it resolved itself into thd nature of damages. The COURT discharged the rule, stating that the plain• tiff had not sufficiently made out a claim to be compen sated. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 21. REYNELL V. LEWIS. The arguments in this case were resumed to-day by the Attorney-General, who, at considerable length, argued that as the contract was originally made with: the solicitors to the company, Smith, Parkes, and Co., and that as no orders were received subsequently from the defendant, nor was there any evidence given that the liability was transferred at any time from the original parties who gave the order to the defendant in the pre sent action, or any other person who was connected with the company—under , such circumstances he con tended that the verdict should be set aside. Mr. COWLING then followed on the same side. The LORD CHIEF BARON—We think it advisable to take the whole of the cases involving the question of the liability of provisional committeemen, in order to come to some decision upon the subject, and lay down a general principle for guidance in all future cases. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—I am informed, my Lord, that there are some thousands of writs now floating about, and it is desirable that the Court should give some decision during the present term. The LORD CrrrEs. BARON—That is the intention of the Court, and we propose to take out of their order all such cases as arc now before the Court : they are the cases of Webb v. Watts ; Wyld v. Hopkins ; Wyld v. Sloan ; Rivett and others v. Wood ; Brown and an other v. Troup ; Goodwin v. Fisher ; and Smith v. Fisher. Such cases as may not be disposed of to-day we shall put on a separate paper, to be taken on Monday. The decision of the Court in the case of Reynell v. Lewis was therefore postponed, and the case of WYLD V. HOPKINS was proceeded with. Mr. MARTIN now showed cause against the rule ob tained in this case by Mr. Watson a few days since. ""The arguments were not concluded at the rising of the Court. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov 21. LOCHLAW V. JORDEN. Mr. MILLER, in this case, which was on action of crim. con., applied to have the trial put off, on the ground that the defendant had carried away the plain tiff's witnesses, his own sons, who are under age. This was the second action, but in the first he was non-s tilted through the absence of witnesses, and the defendant had thrown him into prison for the costs. The COURT granted the application. EXTORTIONS AND IMPOSITIONS.—We understand, with unfeigned regret, that a numerous and otherwise highly respectable body of traders are availing them selves of the present awfully agitated state of society to convert the miseries of their fellow-men into a source of illegitimate profit. We allude to the bakers of the me tropolis. It is true that within a few days past they have been terrified by the outcry raised against them and their exorbitant charges into a reduction of the price of bread, but still the reduction is by no means commensu rate with the reduced price of corn, or the necessities of the public. At present the price of wheat varies from 9s. 4d. to 9s. 6d. per 701b5., or from 11. 17s. 4d. to 11. 18s. per sack. It is reckoned that each sack, weighing 2801b5., produces 86 quartern loaves, which, at 9d. a loaf, returns a gross sum of 545. 6d., leaving a gross profit of 16s. 6d., which, after all deductions for rent, losses, &c., puts into the baker's pocket a clear profit of at least 14s.—a very princely profit upon a ready-money and an everturning trade. If the greatest money broker in London was satibfied that the outlay of 38s. would return him an interest of 140., and that he could every hour turn the same capital with the same gain, he would deem himself a very happy and a very prosperous man. But, in an article of food most essential to our existence, and for the obtaining of which at the least possible price we have upset Cabinets, and convulsed the United King dom from one extremity to the other, such stock-job bing, and such exorbitant profits, will not, cannot be tolerated.—Sunday Times. _ _ COLLISION ON THE Rivca.—Yesterday afternoon, as the Waterman steamer 11, on its way to Greenwich, had reached the Dreadnought, it attempted to pass between two large brigs, when one of them struck the steamer midships, and knocked down her funnel. Most of the passengers were in the cabin, and the steamer having partially turned on one side, so much so that the cabin was for a few minutes thrown into darkness, the passengers, who imagined that she was sinking, rushed in a body towards the deck, but in their hurry to get out, choked the cabin stairs, adding to their terror. Those on deck were thrown down by the collision, and the funnel having fallen on the deck, covered them with soot and smoke. It fortunately happened, h o wever, th at the brig, by another motion, cleared the steamer,an thrt an d the latter escaped without any further injury than which the funnel and paddle-boxes sustained by the concussion. t THE WELLINGTON STAThUaEt al A l ic t D he :Roya l TIiEROYAL ACADEMY: We have heard Acade micians whose opinion was soug ht by Lord Morpeth respecting the Wellington eques trian statue, were unani mous location on the arch, with the exception ag ainst its of two—those being Mr. W.

As we have from thefirst moment of the argument laboured for the result which is now obtained, we are glad to be relieved from further discussion of a subject on which the public had become somewhat weary and impatient. The almost unanimous press has now been reinforced by the almost unanimous Academy—and by the Institute of British Architects; and if these be not, as is pretended, fit re ferees on a matter of artistic principle and effect, it would be difficult to understand what is the use or mean ing of art academies or institutes.—Atheneum.

A BARGE SUNK IN THE 11wErt.—Late on Saturday night, a barge laden with coals, that was coming up the river in to Arundel Wharf, was observed to be filling and rapidly as she neared Temple Bar Pier. By very powerful exertion she was brought past the pier, but just as she cleared it, and was being hauled into the adjoining dock, she reeled over and sank. The sum of 71. 145., sent under cover to Mr. Gibson Craig, one of the iords of the Treasury, has been duly received, and has been paid into the receipt of the Exchequer. on' bi ,of t bo oc-; O A ; o 000, )'
