Aeotems, - 1j A I; ''e is N COURT OF CHANCERY, J.VC: v. 21. The Lord Chancellor did not attend his Court at ,;eitminster to day. ROLLS' COURT, J.Yov. 24. FORDYC} V. navtinEs. His LORDSHIP delivered judgment in this cluse this iorning. He said, this was a WA. filed by Alex.ant , l Fordyce, for the purpose of setting as a decree teat had been obtained by the detiet,r(3ar Sir J. Denny August,of 1843. Brydges, &c., in this suit on h t • p The question in that suit hic wasa a rai equat e blsed yidsculssed y tiff was one that could n ot be I , app in e ared that the testator left his before the Master. I property, which consisted of estates Scotland and Encdand, with directions that those in the former coun try should be sold, and the amount resulting frcm such sale to be invested in the purchase of estates in Eng land, and then left the same to the party under whom the plaintiff claimed as heir. There was no question on these points. The trustees, at their own request, had been discharged from the trusteeship, and the plaintiff filed a bill, which raised the question as to whether he was bound by the acts of the trustees, who had invested nearly the whole of the testator's property in the pur chase °restate.; in Scotland, as well as other dispositions to which he objected. Two questions were before the Court—the first, whether the present Bill was in a proper form, and the other as to the decree. With respect to the forater point, he was of opinion that the present bill was quite correct in the mode in which it came Lefore the Court. With reference to the next point, as to the correctness of the decree, it was necessary to deal With the question more fully. It appeared that the testator had given discretionary powers to his trustees, and au thorised them to appoint trustees; but as this appoint ment was left by the terms of the testator's will entirety in private hands, with that the Court did not interfere, nor institute any inquiry into the nvnner in which they were to act. But alter they had been a ' nnointe,l acts were to be considered by t he Court. Sow they had not acted in conformity with the express , 3,l it:Lel:L*l,n , of the testator, and therefore the plaintiff was not bound by the decree of the 3d of August, 1843, which the trus tees had obtained to invest the property in the manner they had done. He declared that the trustees were er roneously appointed, and directed that it be referred to the Masterto appoint new trustees under, and to inquire as to the amount„ and all the particulars of the money paid to those who held the property of the plaintiff in trust. CARPMEAL V. POWIS. His LORDSHIP also gave judgment to-day in this case, which has been for some time before the Court. The bill was filed by the plaintiff for the purpose of rectifying an agreement into which he had entered with the defendant, IVliss Letitia Powis, or to have a deed of the 7th October, 1839, delivered into Court, to be can celled. In August, 1839, the plaintiff agreed to put chase some house property from the defendant, for which he was to pay a sum of 1,830/, but subsequently • considering that, as the defendant was advanced in life, it would be more adiasable to give her an' annuity instead of the purchase-money, be made a proposition to that effect, and to which she acceded. Mr. Powis suggested that it would be only equitable - for a private individual to grant more than GoVezeneat. Platntiff acquiesced, and agreed to give 181. per annum more than Government. Then the q.:e4- r.on came as to what Government would give, and Mr. i'ovfis applied to a gentletaln in the Government Annuity °Ace, named Cuthbert, who stated in writing that the then price of 1,8001. in the 'Three per Cents. was 1591. Bs. 6d. to a female of fifty-eight years, the age of the defendant at that time. On the 6th of October, 1339, this was, according to the statement of Mr. Powis, shown to Miss Powis, at the same time all the circumstances being communicated to her. Miss Powis, however, stated that he only told her that the plaintiff had agreed to give her an annuity of 1761. 10s. 6d. On the 7th of October, 1839, this was agreed to byall parties, and the deed was executed. Besides the statementof Mr. Powis,there was the evdence of Miss Powis's solicitor, as well as that of a gentleman who was present when the parties met for the purpose of signing the deed, and who stated that the plaintiff pro duced a piece of blank paper, which he said was for the purpose .of /making - the calculation according to the rule that had lieen - agreed upon between him and her bro tiler. The annuity was paid from Oct. 1839 to Jan. 1844, when the plaintiff discovered that lie- had been erro neously informed as to the amount that would be given by Government, ander the circumstances under which he had granted the annuity, being instead of 158/. 9s. 6d. only 1361. 6a. 9id., and therefore that he had been pay ing considerably more than he should have done. lie then applied to Miss Powis to be released from his agreement, which she refused. The present bill was tbi;;;_filA prayingaie Court to set aside the agreement. It was contended on behalf of the defendant, that Government payments were so well known,' that the pliuntiff was not entitled to any relief. 'Mr. Powis had certainly offered himself to obtain the information ro (paired, but he (the Master of the Rolls) should not in a matter of such importance, have implicitly relied on t_he,statenaentof a party so closely related to the defen dva‘at gr. Powis, although there was no imputation Fait upon y that gentleman for his conduct in, the , transaction. Besides, the .plaintiff continued to act under-the erroneous information for more than four yeitrs. His Lordship thought that th 6 agreement should be,deelared void, and he would deem a that an account should be taken of the sums that had been paid by the plaintiff, arl{l that, upon his paying the balance between such and the purchase-money, the deed of agreement should be cancelled. The Court rose at half-past one o'clock. VICE- C ANCEII Y COU I; Non. 24. (Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR of ENGLAND.) TERRY v. W ACME R. Tile further argument; in this part-heard cause occu pied his Honour the Vice Chancellor of England the whole morning. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, IVOv. 24. llEit NAJEsTY'S At the sitting of the Court Lord Campbell, Sir John Jervia, Daniel Dondas, and Mr. Charles Boller, took the oaths usually taken on the acceptance of office of her Majesty's Ministers. Th‘ y held respectively the following offiees:—Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Attorney-General, Solicitor General, and Judge-Advo cate- General. THE QUEEN V. TURNER.—CRIMINAL INIORMATION. Th ( l ATTORNEY. GENERAL applied to have the rule in this case enlarged, on the ground that the defendant required time to obtain affidavits from France and otheo. places Alois were necessary for the proper hearing of the case. The rule was obtained on the 11th of June, last term, but it appeared that notice was not served upon the de fendant until the 7th of August. • Sir Vs. Tur.sragn opposed the application, on the ground that the defendant had had ample time to obtain all the affisleldta he, might require. lie might even have qbtaiged affidavits from India. The Co t OR7 refused the application. MR. 'I - WM:VD, nr., AND MR. LEWIS, TIIE A SgT,Tit. Nkf-POOR -L AW COMMISSIONER THE (WEEK eiIitt'BtTSFEILD FERRAND, 31.P.—CRI3IINAL INFORMATION. This ease, the particulars of which must be fresh in the reeiallactiosi of our readers, came on this morning for arhuihent. The rule was obtained on the first day of term, and called upon Mr. Ferrand to show cause why a criminal information should not be filed against him for the publication of two letters in the Times, on the Bth and 10th of August last, which charged Mr. Lewis with having connived, with Sir James Graham, in order to obtain from Mr. Mott, an Assistant-Poor-law Commissioner, a false report s%ith respect to the Keighley Union, for the purpose of injuring his character, and crushing him as a Member of the House of Commons, Mr. Ferrand being the chairman of the board of guardians of the union. Mr. Ferrand was present, and occupied a seat next his counsel. Mr. MARTIN, Q C., showed cause against the rule. He said in the summer of last year a Committee was appointed by the House of Commons to in vestigate certain charges which had been mad e with respect to the management of the Andover Union. It was during the sittings of this Committee that the two letters complained of appeared in the Times. Re ports of the evidence adduced before the Committee ap peared from day to day in the newspapers, and thus came under the notice of Mr. Ferrand. A few days be fore the first letter was written a Mr. Parker, who had been on a Government Poor-law Commission, but who had been dismissed on account of some proceedings with respect to the Andover Union, and Mr. Chadwick, who held the office of Secretary to the Commissioners, were examined before this Committee. The first letter was written by Mr. Ferrand on reading al h epor i t , of the arned evidence given by these gentlemen. T Counsel then rea d the letter, which stated that he (Mr. Ferrand) had been unable to at . teni . Parlbta =eatery duties on account of indisp)sition,but that he had . watch ed the proceedings of the Andover Committee with e most intense interest, and that t C he feelings of eve tb ry Hon. Member of the House of Conmons must revolt at the eviJence ad duced before the Committee on the preceding Saturday, as it was distinctly proved that part of the statement made in the House of Commons by Sir James Graham, reflecting severely on his conduct, was false. Further disclosures were prevented by the chairman requesting Mr. Parker to confine his answers to the matter before the Committee ; and when further observations with respect to the Keighl e y union were made, Mr. Manners Sutton ordered the room to be cleared. The letter went on to state that he should prove that Mr. Mott was merely the tool of Mr. Lewis, that the whole business . was nothing m ore than a conspiracy o n the p art of Sir James Graham o ,nd Mr. Lewis, in order to " crush him " (Mr. Ferrand). The second letter stated that Mr. Lewis had been g outy of the most deliberate falsehood, in order to deceive the House a Commons, and order to rescue his confidential friend, Sir that awaited him.) James Graham, ilvm the infamy From these letters it appeared that Mr. Lewla -was charged. with having assisted in made by Mr. Mott which contai ned getting a report ;else 3 statements, l el h ivd the . ere and that, knowing them to be false, pepOrt to Sir James Graham, to be used delivered inwast his p l ace in the House of Commons, and that th y e r ep ort so used. sir FREDERICK THESIGER said that was not all. Hi s learned Friend should read the last pttssage. Mr. MARTIN did so. The letters went on t o elate that the whole proceeding was a false • d infamous conspiracy, on the part of. Mr. JAI'? is and Sir James Graham, to crush him (Mr. Yertand) in the House of Commons. The second letter At...41,.....tatAd that Mr. Lewis, when examined before THE LONDON, WEDNESDAY MORNING,_ , NOVEMIBER 25, 1816. the Andover Committee, made afalse statement with re spect to the repo rts on the condition of the leeighley Unicn. Mr. L ewis had stated that Mr. Mott was sent down to Neighley in consequence of a notice of motion entered by Mr. Ferrand in the notice book of the House o f Commons, for an address to the Crown to rescind an order of the Poor-law Commissioners with respect to the which Mr. Ferrand denied, as his motion was not made until June, whereas Mr. Mutt's report was dated the 23d of April. Mr. Lewis stated that he had no com munication with Sir J. Graham before desiring Mr. Mott to visit the union. Sir J. Walsham sent down to make a similar investigation, in order to test the accuracy of Mr. Mott's report, and a Comm ittee was appointed on the 28th of June to investigate the subject, and made their report on the 15 th o f Jul y . The affidavit of Mr. ' Lewis stated that he did not direct Mr. Mott to make a false report, and that he believed it to be strictly true; that he did not carry it to Sir James Graham knowing it to be false, and that he had never conspired with Sir James Graham for the p ur p ose of p re j udicin g Mr. Fer rand or any other perso n ; and Mr. Mott in his affidavit denied that he received any instructions from Mr. Lewis or any other person, to make a special or colourable re port. When Mr. Lewis was examined before the An dover Committee lie stated that Mr. Mutt was sent down to Keighley in consequence of the motion of Mr. Ferrand, but on the 1 lth of August, after the second letter was published, he went before the Committee, and explained that he meant Sir John Walsham, and not Mr. Mott. What, must he asked, have been the state of a sanguine man's mind, or even the state of mind of a cool-minded man on reading the evidence given by Mr. Lewis ? Why, believing that he had been cruelly injured, that Mr. Mutt had been directed to furnish a false report, and that the statement of Mr. Lewis confirmed him in his belief; to take the earliest and most public opport unit y of wiping away the imputations which had been cast upon him by Sir James Grafts on the strength of these reports. The ptea:ter -1' -ed in the hand; of their Lerd >hips, of cnahline pet sene wit. felt themselves uegrieved to camerorwF.rd and j'_a_lLat:', i+y preeeedings, thee- eye recto s, was :s e valuable privilege, but it was one which should be cautiously used, and not made subservient to the injury of individuals who acted conscientiously. He trusted he should satisfy the Court that Mr. F errand in writing these letters was not actuated by any personal or ill feeling towards Mr. Lewis, whose name he was ignorant of, until he saw it in the Tines of August last; and that he was induced to write the letter in quest en whilst in a frame of mind which would have iudoced not only a sanguine, but a cool-minded man, who believed the statement of Mr. Lewis to be true, to act in a similar manner. If he should satisfy their Lordships that the letters were written under these circumstances, he appre bonded they would consider that Mr. Lewis bad a fair op portunity of vindicating his character by the proceedings he had already taken, and that they would discharge the rule. He bad no wish to speak of Mr. Lewis with any harshness, but he thought he could point out that in this matter he had not acted with that fairness which the public had a right to expect from a per son filling the situation he did. This would be more evident when he stated that Mr. Lewis put into Sir James Graham's hands the statements which here undoubtedly false, and that he kept other statements tack, which would have shown the report of Mr. Mott to lan felse, and that when Sir James Graham and Mr. Lewis were in possession of Sir John Wel sham's and of previous reports with respect to the union, that Mr, Mott's report was alone used. Mr. Lewis could scarcely be considered to have acted fairly by putting forward the statement of Mr. Mott alone, when others were in his possession, which, to say the least of them, were contrary to that report. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to read tee affidavit of Mr. Ferrand. It stated that he was elected a Member of Parliament in 1841, and that he had formed a very strong opinion as to the impolicy of the New Poor-law, as he or any other man had a perfect right to do; and that he was returned to Parliament on the express statement made by him that he would use the influence of his position to obtainthe abolition of that law. Early that session hereceived a communication from Sir James Graham, stating that he wished to see bin. On waiting on him, Sir James Graham stated, on the part of the Government, that they were anxious that he should abstain from opposing the New Poor-law. He replied that be coald not do so, as his conscientious opinions were against it, and that he had pledged his constituents to oppose it. He made a motion to rescind an order of Ow Poor-law Commissioners of the 30th of April, 1842, but afterwards abandoned it. On the 17th of June lie made a speech in opposition to a Bill con nected with some alteration of the Poor- law ; and it was on that occasion that Sir James Graham produced the report of Mr. Mott. Sir John Walsham had made his report on the 9th, and made a most savage attack upon Mr. Ferrand, imputing to him the most dishonourable 4onduce t stating that in his capacity of chairman of the anion, and. as a magistrate, he had done all he could - to create business for the attorneys, and that he had made certain regulations fur the purpose of creating new ex penses. He stated that there was not the slightest truth in any of these charges—that they were most cruel and unjust, and that he rose immediately after Sir James ' Graham, and stated so. This debate took place on the 17th of dilate, when both Sir James Graham and Mr. Lewis roust have been in possession of Sir John Wal sham's report. The great complaints of Mr. Ferrand up to the present time was, that although they were in possession of many other reports at the tirae, Mr. Motes, which cast upon him the grossest possible imputations, was us: d. The affidavit concluded by stating that the report of Mr. Mott was untrue, and that the committee had so decided. He then read the affidavit of Mr. Parker, stating that the statement of Mr. Ferrand was correct; of Mr. Macdonald, the noes reporter, who attended the committee on the Andover Union, con firming the evidence of Mr. Parker, and after comment ing on the material facts, he concluded by calling upon the Court, under the circumstances, to discharge the rule. Mr. BooVILL followed on the same side. He dwelt upon the fact that when Mr. Ferrand took the matter up it had appeared in the limes, and although the appear ance of such a statement in a newspaper would be no justification for a libel, it showed that Mr. Ferrand had taken it up on public grounds, and that it had become a public question, that no copy had been kept of the in structions given to Sir John Walsham in opposition to the Poor-law Act ; that on the 17th of June, when Mr. Mott's report was produced, that Mr. Lewis had been the cause of all the injury which Mr Ferrand had sustained, and trusted the Court would not make the rule absolute. Sir I". THES/GER then addressed the Court in support of the rule. He said he had listened with regret to the speeches of his learned friends, because throughout the whole of their addresses, they had done all in their power to . maintain the charges Mr. Ferrand had made"; but he deeply and sincerely regretted that Mr. Ferrand had not found seine one calm enough to advise him to adopt a different course than the one lie had adopted—not to add to the venom of the sting he had inflicted, but to make some atonement for the injury he had done- to- the character of Mr. Lewis. Now, it appeared that Mr. Mott was not directed to visit the union until tho middle of March, 1842, at which time Mr. Ferrand lad not commenced his duties as chairman until the 30th of March, and when he did visit it, he did so in pursuance of an order from Mr. Lewis, who was informed that many irregularities pre vailed in the union. The practice and the act in itself was perfectly; legitimate, and the report, Mr. Ferrand's common sense must tell him, was not of Mr. Lewis, but for the Poor Law Commissioners to act upon, and they did act upon it, and issued the order which Mr. Ferrand had sought to rescind, and when the matter was before Sir James Graham, he did that which at once showed that there was nothing at all to induce the belief that he had embarked in a conspiracy to obtain a fabri cated report, and that he had acted as an honourable man occupying a high position in the Administration of the affairs of the country, he suggested the propriety of of sending Sir John Walsham to Keighley, who was in its neighbourhood. Surely Mr. Ferran(' must see that this conduct on the part of Sir James Graham was entirely opposed to anything like a conspiracy. Mr. Ferrand had stated in his affi davit that the committee on Mr. Mott's report was not an impartial one, and that those who voted in the majority were supporters of the:Governnsent. This was a matter of which the Court could take no cognisance, and he only mentioned it to show how sweeping and indiscriminatewerc the assertions of Mr. Ferrand. Then he stated that Mr. Mott's report " was a false report, and that it was backed by another false report" (Sir John Walsham's), which would seem to infer that Sir John Walsham had been also .directed to furnish a fabricated report, but the Committee held that the reports con firmed each other in all their material allegations, except that some of the statements in Sir John Walsham's report were too general, and required qualification. Why this alone was sufficient to convince any half-reasoned mane that there was no con spiracy, for if there had been, the reports would no doubt have tallied to the letter. Then, again, he stated thet he was prevented from examining Mr. Mott when . one he was before the Committee. Very great credulity was necessary to induce any to give credence to su c h a statement, Mr. Mott was called befor e th e Committee, Mr. F err afnod;,sthdeupurpose because of being examined, and it w if the Committee, to take a part in that investigation. a igs s t. i o o n n e Li is Learned Friend talked of Mr. Ferrand's violent pas sions, but was it to be said , that because a man had a violent temper that he was to be allowed to run his head against any one he chose? At a meeting at Leeds he made the statements with respect to the report, and added that Sir James Graham had broken his tool, but the House of Commons subsequently voted the charge " calumnious and false," or that the House of Commons considered him a calumniator in this respect. Then the letters referred to of Mr. Lewis's. and of which it was urged, copies should have been kept, partake more of the nature of private and confidential than of public documents. It was not a letter from the Poor la es Commissioners, 'although the report w hich arose out of it was ultimately presa - nted to them. What had been the conduct of Mr. Ferrand daring the whole-of the years over which these transactions were spread? Had he come forward and said, " I believed at the time that there was a conspiracy, but, as I find I ate incorrect, I feel happy in making all the atone ment in ley power for the charges I have made?" No ; he had persevered in his gross imputations ; he i4eav pepisted in them, and came forward to maintain them, %eying that he bare no malice to Mr. Lewis. Oh! no ; but if his Rothe nature could not be roused to any violence, how could lie so grossly libel Mr. Lewis so late as August last, so grossly asperse his character, that if there were any truth in the charges therein made, he would be wholly unfit to occupy his position, or to fulfil the duties of private life ? The mistake of Mr. Lewis). in eielastat . uting Sir John Welshers for Mr. Mete in his examination before the Committee, was tweet excusable, for it was mis take,naostoiritieuwsastbv4aljWinr.gesroottrepethrfaon4edthefirst examination, yet Mr, Ferrand, in his letter, referred to Mr. Mott's report of the 30th or April, showing that be knew his was the first report, and that Mr. Lewis, being confused by dates, made a mistake. Was there, then, not much boldness in Mr. Ferrand seeking to discharge the rule? If they did discharge it, Mr. Mott coti!d not fulfil the duties of his office, because he was charged with conspiring with a great public officer to suborn a subordinate official, and an adverse decision woulii - 'is;matise him as fs,uilts of the charge, as nnfit to hold lin) , public cific6. Whe ever might be the feelings lurking in Mr. Ferrand's breast, it was impossible, judging from his past conduct, to avoid the inference that he was a malicious libeller. Mr. PEACOCK was about to follow on the same side, but he was stopped by Lord DENMAN, who said, we are called upon for leave to grant a criminal information in respect of two letters containing charges conveyed in the very grossest lan guage. The excuse set up is that the gentleman who issued those publieations was to a great degree inflamed by circumstances, which, although they might not justify the imputations which he has cast, yet might show him to be in a state of mind to which some reasonable indulgence ought to be extended ; and I oa n that there is such a complication of circumstances that I was very desirous to hear the statements on the other side, and of looking at the affidavits, before I carne to a conviction, in order that I might see whether the defendant might not feel himself in twine degree justified in the course he has pursued; but, &ler hearing the explanation, and after the fall discus , iou which has taken place, I am perrectly convinced not only that there is nothing—not only no foundation for this conspiracy which the letters set forth, but also that there is nothing that has since occurred to give a reasonable ground for Mr. Ferrand to suppose that those imputations are just. Under these circum stances, it appears to me—notwithstanding some matters showing a degree of negligence perhaps, and some mist'ortune in not keeping copies of documents which it may he possible to tely has led to a d•• 'red of emil'osion in the op:ni.nF, , by the ttt!e.Aarq in Ow of the CJail,li!t.- that he stands without any excuse whatever fur uttering such publication. It is not, in my opinion, necessary to say more on the present occasion than that there is nothing to show or raise the least reasonable ground for saying that Mr. Lewis employed Mr. Mutt for the purpose of doing any injury to •Mr. Ferranti, or that Mr. Mott made any charge against Mr. Ferrand which called for those strong sentimeuts which appear to have been excited In his. mind, or that Sir James Graham, or Mr. Mott, or any of them, have been engaged in any improper proceedings fur the purpose of injuring Mr. Ferrand; and therefore I think it is quite imperative on the Court to say that this gentleman stands completely without justification for what he has done, and that this rule must be made absolute. Mr. Ferranti then left the court. BAIL COURT, Nov. 24. (Before Mr. Justice PATTESON.) THE QUEEN v. HEALEY. Mr. ITUDDLESToNE moved to enlarge a rule which had been obtained by Mr. Bramwell for a criminal informa tion, on the part of Thomas Wakley. Esq., M.P., against the editor of a paper called the Medical Times, for a libel. The affidavits stated that there were likely to arise from the proceedings many facts, which it would he necessary to bring under the notice of the Court, and which, owing to the lateness of the term, it would be impossible to get up in sufficient time. Mr. BRAMWELL could offer no objection, if his Lord ship thought the grounds for the enlargement sufficiently strong.—Application granted. THE QUEEN V. Mr. MOODY moved for a writ of certiorari directed to the magistrates of the county of Cornwall to remove an indictmant which was to be preferred at the quarter sessions fur that county against the defendant fur steal ing oysters from an oyster bed. His Lordship was ,aware that a prosecution of this nature would be at• tended with peculiar difficulties as the property was taken from an arm of the sea, and it would be necessary to prove the title of the prosecutor to the oyster grounds and his plwer of defeating the general right of any sub ject to take fish between high and low water mark The magistrates before whom the case came before were aware of the difficulty of this sort of case, and they en tertained it with the view of having it removed by writ of certiorari.—Rule nisi granted. THE QUEEN V. EDWARD LUTMAN. Mr. PHINN moved for a rule for a quo warranto call irg on Edward Lutman to show cause why and by what authority he exercised the office of town councillor of Bath. The affidavits stated that there being two vacancies in the town council, three candidates presented themselves, Messrs. Luttuan, Archer, and Crutwell; the votes polled were, Archer, 212; Lutman , '212; and Crutwell, 210. After the election it was found that a very exten sive system of personation had taken place, and under the Act a number of votes given for Archer and Lutman were invalid, and therefore that Mr. Crutwell was at the head of the poll.—Application granted. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Nov. 24. MEREDITH V. TIOI.BIAN. In this case MI:C .-- lIA3IBERS moved for a rule to show cause why a- nonsuit should not be entered for the plain tiff, or a new trial had, on the ground of misdirection. The cause was tried a few days since before Mr. Baron Platt, and a verdict returned for the plaintiff for two se ' parate sums, of 325. and 10/. It appeared that the defendant had delivered forty sacks of coals to plaintiff, thirty-two of which were defi cient in weight. The plaintiff bringht this action to recover the penalties, which were assessed by the jury at the rate of Is. per sack. The second count of the declaration charged the defendant with sending out the coals in question without a ticket properly signed with the name of the seller of the coals. Upon this count a penalty of 101. was imposed by the jury. Mr. M. CHAMBERS now moved, pursuant to leave re served at the trial, to enter a nonsuit, upon the ground that the coals were not weighed in the mode prescribed by Act of Parliament, the mode in which they were weighed having been by placing upon one side of the scale the weights and an empty sack, and upon the other the coals and the full sack, the Act expressly stating that the coals in the sacks should be first weighed, and afterwards the empty sacks. Upon the second count the Court ruled, that as the pa malty imposed by the Act did not exceed 20/. the Court had no jurisdiction. The Court granted a rule for a nonsuit upon the first count, on the ground that the coals were not weighed **cording to Act of Parliament. MEREDITH V. HOLMAN. In this cause, in which in the early part of the day Mr. Chambers obtained a rule for a nonsuit and arrest of judgment, Mr. MARTIN moved, pursuant to leave given him at the trial, for a rule to show cause why the amount of the penalties should not be increased from one shilling on each sack of coals that were found deficient in weight to five pounds, that being the maxi mum penalty affixed by the Act of 1 and 2 Will. IV., and also why the verdict for ten pounds on send ing out an improper ticket with the coals should not be increased to twenty pounds, the maximum penalty im posed.by the Ist and 2d Victoria. This rule was sought in order to raise the question whether the Court ought not et the trial to have fixed the amount of the several penalties, instead of leaving the question to be decided by the jury.—ltule granted. went, or in some other way to meet the CIS:!. The rule must therefore be discharged. llule discharged accordingly. Picti. v. LE BLANC.—QUESTION Ca COPYRIGHT. M;:COCKBITEN appeared against a rule obtained by Mr. Sergeant Talfourd, on the part of Mr. Aaron Pick, calling upon him to show cause why the entry of a book entitled "The Bible Students' Concordance," at Stationers' Hall, in the name of Colonel Le Blanc, of Chelsea, should not be expunged, or the name of Mr. Aaron Pick substituted as the proprietor of the said work. Colonel Le Blanc had assisted in collating the work, had paid for the printing, and it had been agreed that the c wyright should be vested in him. Mr. Sergeant TALFOURE having been heard in sup port of the rule, The LOUD CHIEF JUSTICE suggested that an arrange ment shoal be come to, by which if the claim of Colon( 1 Le Blanc was liquidated, the copyright of the woik might be given up to Mr. Pick. Ultimately it was arranged that the rule should be enlarged till next t'•rm, and that if in the interim the claim of Colonel Le Blanc was discharged the rule should then be made absolute ; and, further, that should there be any dispute as to the amount claimed, the nr.tter should be left to the arbitration of Mr. Mellor. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Nov. 24. (Before Mr. Consmissioinr SHEentsnn.) IN RE JOHN BADMAN, ALIAS "JOHNNY WALKER." This insolvent came up tn his amended p,Aition, to apply for an interim order, and Air. DuNcas appeared to support the insolvent, and Mr. Buchanan to oppose. Mr. BUcHANAN opposed en the ground that the in• solvent's Wits exceeded 300/., and also that he had gone under a different name to that in which he peti tioned. To support this opposition Mr. Buchanan pro duced two bills from a firm in Scotland, and also a bill of the play, in which the defendant, under the mime of kv,..ll;er, epp(i.,ea ill C the A:0,440/8 Geeeiati and %He:Ala:l :st4teea.

A c t did t ,ot apply to Scotland, and, therefore, that no debts due to Scottish creditors could be adduced in opposition in this Court, and therefore that Mr. Buchanan had no locus standi. The Learned COMMISSIONER said the question was of considerable importance, and he would therefore reserve the point. Mr. DUNCAN said that his Honour would clearly per ceive, that supposiAg an action was brought in Scotland for the same debt, no plea in bar could be raised on the discharge under this Act. The rejection of this debt would !educe the amount. The point of liability being reserved, the insolvent was questioned as to the amount of the debt, and said that he could not deny the correctness of the invoice. The Learned COMMISSIOrER said that the invoice could not be received in evidence at all. The insolvent had sworn to the best of his belief ac to the amount of his debt, and to make it greater, or to prove the invoice, witnesses must prove the delivery of the goods. Mr. BUCHANAN then produced the beer and spirit licenses granted to the insolvent by the name of John B. Walker, and contended this was a holding out to the word a fictitious name, which must be taken as fraud, and would prevent the Court from exercisiug a power of granting an order. The insolvent said that he had not given the name for the purposes of fraud or concea'snenl, but hcieg known by both names he had, in answer to the Excise officers, given the name. Mr. DuNcaN argued that no deceit could be inferred in this case, where a man was so well known to the world. If, however, the Scotch creditors had complaint against " John, or Johnny Walker," they had no right to complain in England of the conduct of John Badman. The Learned COMMIcSIONER said the insolvent ap peared to have been well known in both names, there fore he could not allow the objection. Interim order granted. the room he apologised, and was going down stairs, when the defendant soddenly rushed at him, seiz.?d him by the collar, and threatened to kick him down stairs. The defendant then attempted to force him down stairs, and in the struggle used much violence, and hurt one of his hands. Complainant told him he was a process server, and had two subpoenas to serve on his brother. Complainant produced the copy and the original, to show that he had authority for his proceedings. The de fondtrit, however, continued his attempts to force him Gown stairs, and called to his servant to fetch a police cons.able. The defendant ultimately left him, and went out of the house to get, as he said, the assistance of the police. Complainant waited in the hall for about ten minutes, but finding no one came he left the house. Mr. Breary, in defence, said, the complainant was told that his brother was not within. Without mention- ing his business, he said he would go into every room in the house to satisfy himself ; and . he ran up stairs awl ppned the door of snore than one room. Defendant went after him, and insisted on his quitting the house instantly, as he had an invalid patient under his care who would be inconvenienced by his conduct. As the c nnplainant took upon him to open the doors of the rooms in his house, he (defendant) conceived he had a just right to prevent such intrusion, and he certainly did isv held of the complainant's collar to move him down stairs, but without striking or otherwise assaulting the eonsplah:ant. He (Jefendant) wished to know whether the comp' ticant was authorised to enter his house and search over it, on the plea that he was serving a legal process ? Indeed, his opinion of the affair was that he was the aggrieved party, and that he ought to have sought for redrsss by law against the complainant. The complainant's witness proved that the defendant used considerable violence towards the complainant. The defendant's witness said, the complainant was toll that Mr. Edward Breary was not at home ; but he would not pay attention to this denial, and he made his wsy up F3:',nirs. Mr. lica;ehriea sts!d a small Grip would mgt the juz tiee of too vast'. _ _ _ „ Mr. HARDWICii thought tL,t, too mu::1 , violence had been used by the defendant. The complainant, how ever, was not free from blame in his proceedings, he having adopted a course likely to produce irritation. As more than justifiable violence had been u.e.l, he should inflict a tine of 20,3., and costs. George Smith and F. S. Breewood were charged with riot and assault in the coffee-house, 265, Oxford-street. James Stewart, the proprietor of the coffeehouse, said the two prisoners and some others came into his house about half-past three o'clock, and ordered coffee and bread and butter and cheroots fin' six. Complainant, on their receiving these articles, asked fur payment. Smith, the defendant, said "that's the payment I'll give you," and threw the contents of a cup of coffee into his (complainant's) face. Complainant struck him a back stroke in the face, got up on the seat and collared Smith, and Breewood then dealt him several- severe blows about the head. Complainant went out and called the police, and when he returned he found the defendants in con flict nith his waiter. The prisoner Breewood struck witness in the chest. They were given into custody, and in the struggle several articles of crockery-ware_and the glass in the door were smashed to pieces, to the arcount`of 10/. in value. Several wituesses were called, who corroborated his e s iderr.e. The prisoners denied the charge, and called a witness, who, on the testimony of the police, was more violent than any present, and would have been taken into cus tody had there been force enough. Mr. LONG said they must pay 40s. each for the assault or go one month to the House of Correction. Michael censor, Mary Slater, and Pat Hannan, were charged with assault in the Victoria public-house, Castle street, Oxford-street. John Williams, being sworn, said, the three prisoners and some others came into his father's house, the Vic toria, on Monday night about half-past eleven o'cicck, and called for a pint of rum. His father refused to serve them. They told him if he would serve them they would go out quietly, otherwise they would not go out of the house. He then drew a pint of rum, and, holding it in his hand, asked for the payment. Connor snatched the measure out of his hand and drank off half the con tents; the female then had it, and drank the rest. His father again asked for payment. Connor then struck the landlord on the breast with the measure, and parties went out and gave Connor into custody of a policeman. The female at this time seized a pewter measure off the bar and threw it at witness's mother, whom it struck in the chest; she threw a two-quart jug and a quart pewter pot at her. This done, she smashed two gas glasses and set the taps running. She then went up and assaulted the barmaid, scratching her face, and tearing off her hair by handfuls. Elizabeth Jones, the barmaid, said she had been eleven years in the same house, and on the night in question the prisoners came in and acted as had been stated. She then took off her bonnet by desire of the Court, and ex hibited the one side of her head almost as bare as the palm of the hand, contrasting strangely with the other side, which was well covered with hair. Police-constable E 118 said he took Connor into cus tody, and the other male prisoner, with the female, came out and rescued him, and took him into the public house again. The constable followed, and was struck by the defendant Ilannan when proceeding to take Connor again into custody. Mr. Lost: said. Connor, for the assault on Mr. Wil liams, must pay 405., or go one month to the house of Correction ; Hannan, for assaulting the policeman, 405., or one month's imprisonment ; but the female, for this brutal and horrible assault on the barmaid, Inuit pay 51., or go two months to the House of Correction. WORSH/P- S TR E ET. A young man named John Clifford, the son of a tradesman in Fashion-street, SpittiMelds, was placed at the bar before Mr. Bingham, charged with assaulting and wounding police-constable Norman, of the II divi sion, in the execution of his duty. It appeared from the evidence of the constable, who had been confined to his bed for more than a week, and exhibited marks of severe recent injuries, that he was on duty in Commercial-street, Whitechapel, between twelve and one on the morning of Monday se'nnight, when he was directed by his sergeant to proceed and quell a dis turbance which had arisen in Flower arid Dean-street. On reaching there he found the prisoner in the custody of some other officers, through the hand of one of whom, as he was told by a bystander, he had just drawn a knife. Finding, however, that his assistance was not required, he returned back to his beat, and shortly afterwards saw the prisoner, who appeared to have escaped from the constables approaching, sur rounded by a riotous mob, and he attempted to secure him. The prisoner, however, on observing his intention, instantly struck him a violent blow on the eye with a large stone, which sent him reeling backwards and ren dered him powerless; and, before he could recover him self, he was as rapidly struck forward again by another violent blow from some instrument on the back of his head, and felled to the ground in a state of insensibility. On being restored to consciousness, he found that he had almost lost the sight of his left eye, and that his clothes were completely saturated with blood, which was pouring in such a stream down his face; that it was with difficulty he could support himself by some railings while he sprang his rattle for assistance. This ulti mately brought up two other constables, with whose aid he was taken to bed at the station house, and had been under surgical attendance ever since. Policeman 193 H proved that at four o'clock that morning he apprehended the accused, whom he found in bed at his house in Fashion-street, having pre viously seen him escaping from another constable,whorn he had likewise assailed; and three other officers gave almost equally direct testimony, and positively swore to the identity of the prisoner, with whose person one of them had been acquainted for several years. Mr. Heritage, who appeared for the defence, said that, notwithstanding the positive manner in which his client had been sworn to by the police, he was instructed t 4 give a total denial to the charge, and had seven or eight witnesses in attendance, who would prove that the con stables were altogether mistaken in their identification of the prisoner, who, although he had certainly been present as a spectator at the commencement of the affray, had taken no part whatever in the actual outrage which had afterwards been committ ed. witnesses the accused, he considered that it was solel y the p rovince s l e lr w o h ri o a h m u , dh unanimouslyowever shorn h w a o t n a t f t t ( e ) r th t h e e i n d u e n m t b i t e y r o o f f of a jury to decide upon the cogency of any conflicting testimony that might be produced in . that respect ; and the sessions, but would adept sub stantial bail, under the ahsadthneochheasrigtaetwioans ionnceoomfmaittvinergythseerptoruissodneesrefroiprttiortna,l heat circumstances stated by his solicitor, for his appearance there to answer the charge.

The Magistrate then remanded the prisoner, to give con cerned in the robbery. n th e g t ew i n i ate(hisriel thej money was loose in his LAMBETH. James Grand, late a police-constable belonging to the P. division, was brought before Mr. Elliott, un a charge of abduction. Mr. Games, who attended for the prosecution, said, that in the month of January last the prisoner, then a policeman, was in custody upon the present charge, but had managed to effect his escape. An application was subsequently made to Mr. henry, at this Court, and a warrant was granted for the prisoner's apprehension, but the prisoner managed to elude the vigilance of the police until the night before, when he was taken into custody. It was not his (Mr. Games's) wish, at that late hour Of the evening, to go into the case beyond showing suffi cient grounds for the prisoner's remand to a future day ; and he should, therefore,. content himself by merely re questing that the sworn information upon which the warrant was granted against him might be read. Mr. Gunn, the clerk, then read over the examinations of Elizabeth Ann Grant (the wife of the prisoner), and Sarah Everest, her mother, taken before Mr. Henry on the 20th day of January last, and which are as follow " Elizabeth Ann Grant then stated that on Friday, the 31st day of October last, I left home to go to tea at Mrs. Murrell's, in Locks fields, and tia I wtt hi the shop, about half-past three o'clock in the afternoon, I saw James Grant, a police-constable of the P division, 1 , jo; 290, pass. He saw me and beckoned to me. He had been paying his addresses to me, but against the consent and wishes of my mother, for about six months ; and I came out to him when he beckoned to me. He then asked me to go to some house with him, and wanted me to get married to him. I said, too young.' I was then 15 years and seven months old only. He perinaded me to go on board a steam-boat with him from Westminster-bridge to Vauxhall. There he gave me _something to drink. and I became tipsy. He took me to a brothel, No. 2, Gaywood street, London-road, and there, by threats and persuasions, I consented to his wishes. He kept me there, and at other lodgings, for nearly two months, and at the end of that time I was married to him, at the church of the parish of Christ church, in the county of Surrey. During the two months and frequently since I have been, married, I have asked him to let inc go home to my mother; but he has always threatened would beat my brains out if. I did. On Sunday night last, the ISth instant, he was writing, and I said to him, ' I may as well write home to my mother, may I V He said, No, if you do I'll stick these razors through you!' sad took two razors cut of a drawer and opened them, He struck, sue and knocked my head ageinst the wall because I said I would write.

Yest , ,•rday he told me he would murder me if I said any thing about him before the Magistrate--Sarah Evere,t, on her oath, sai I—The last witness is my daughter by my former husband, Thomas Currant, deceased. She was 15 years of age on the 15th day of March last, and on the 3 tat day of October last she went to taa at Mrs. Mur rell's, and did not return again ; and I did not see her again until yesterday, when she sent for me, and Ifound her at Grant's lodgings. About a fortnight before she left m T found out that Grant and my daughter were too iuturto, and I forbade his coming to the house, and tries 11'd I could to keep my daughter out of his way; and it was quite against my consent and wish that she went to live with him, and that she got married to him. My daughter will be entitled to 5001. when she becomes of age." Mrs. Everest was then put into the witness-box, and deposed to the perfect truth of her statement. Elizabeth Ann Grant next got into the witness-box, and said that she did not wish to proceed further in the matter; and that if the prisoner was agreeable to return and live with her she had no objection to live with him. Mr. Roberts, who attended on behalf of the prisoner, hoped that after this declaration the charge would nut be proceeded with. Mrs. Everest, however, declared her determination to prosecute the prisoner, and this being the case, Mr. ELLIOTT observed that the mother, and not the daughter was the prosecutrix, and therefore it must be proceeded with. The prisoner was ultimately remanded. MARKET - NE WS— ( ESTERDAY.) CO URT OF COMMON PLEAS, Nov. 24. Their Lordships gave judgment this morning in the following cases:— GIBER AND ANOTHER V. FLIGHT AND ANOTHER. Mr. Justice COLTMAN delivered the judgment of the Court in this well-known case. This was an action in trover brought against the defendants for the detention of certain books alleged to belong to the plaintiffs as the churchwardens of the parish of Walbrook. The de fendants were two of the rate-payers of the said parish, who disputed the legality of the election of the plaintitL. The principal point raised by the case, which now came before the Court in the shape of demurrer, which had been argued in a previous term, was, whether the plaintiffs were the churchwardens of the said parish on the 12th of April, 1844, or in other terms, whether the re election of Mr. Alderman Gibbs on that day was valid or not, he having been juniorchurchwarden theyear before, By the custom of the parish, there were two church wardens elected every year front the body of the parish ioners, and the select vestry was made up of the past and present churchwardens so elected. It was stated in the records of the parish that from the year 1648 to 1734 one churchwarden was elected every year, in the manner before described, and such churchwarden was junior churchwarden for that year, and became senior churchwarden for the next. This was so during the above period, with the exception of from 1660 to 1672, which was immaterial to the case, and this was the period of the great fire of London. From 1734 to 1775, and from thence to 1824, the order of proceed• ings was the same, with but four exceptions. The mode of election named must, therefore, be pronounced to be the custom of the parish. The succession of junior churchwarden to the office of senior churchwarden would, therefore, be stopped, if that office was allowed to remain in the possession of one person for many years ; and the number of the select vestry would also be reduced so as to be ineffectual for useful purposes. The decision of the Court, therefore, was, that the re-election of Mr. Alderman Gibbs to the office of senior churchwarden, on the day iu question, was not valid, and that a nonsuit must be entered. In giving this judgment, his Lordship said his brethren, Mr. Justice Maule, Mr. Justice Cresswell, and Mr. Justice Erle, concurred. Mr. CowEN applied to have a special verdict entered, instead of a nonsuit. The parties could agree as to the facts to be entered. Mr. Sergeant TALFounn objected. He considered it would be unrecvonable to enter a special verdict. Mr. CoWEN said it was reserved to either party to enter a special verdict. Mr. Justice CoLTMAN—That must depend on the facts found. There must be a nonsuit. Nonsuit entered accordingly. WOOLEY V. SMITH. Mr. Justice COLTMAN delivered judgment in this case, which was on a rule obtained in last Trinity term. Damages had been recovered against the defendant for a breach of contract on the 16th of November, 18-14, and judgment signed on the 6th of December. On the 16th of May following a fiat of bankruptcy was issued against him, and on the 22.1 of August he obtained his certifi cate. On the 3d of February, after the plaintiff caused the defendant to be arrested on a writ of ca sa, a rule was obtained to set aside the proceedings on the ground that the defendant was under the prohibition of the bank ruptey laws. In reviewing the whole case, their Lord ships did not consider the defendants' plea good. Judg ment in favour of the plaintiff had been signed on the Gth of December, whereas the fiat was not issued till the May following, and the defendant had had sufficient L time and opportunity in the interim to effect an arrange- CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.

Before the COMMON SERGEANT and Alderman Sir W:MAGNAv.) All the cases tried in this Court 3 esterclay were of the most trivial chamter, being cases chiefly of petty larceny.. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. -- -- The November adjourned ?essions for the county of Middlesex commenced yesterday morning, at the Court house, Clerkenwell-green, when the calendar presented the names of seventy-one persons, sixty-two of whom were charged with felony. The Learned ASSISTANT JUDGE, in charging the grand jury, said it was with regret that he felt compelled again to allude to a subject which had long occupied his attention, and which, he feared, must almost now be more than familiar with the gentlemen of the grand jury, he meant the more than usual number of juvenile criminals appearing in the calendar, in propor tion to the adults. Out of 71 cases to be brought before the grand jury, no less than 24 were of children be tween the ages of nine and fourteen, and one or two between that and seventeen. It was truly painful to witness these cases ; and he sincerely hoped that next session of Parliament would not be suffered to pass away, without the attention of the Legislature being directed to a subject of such deep import to the moral welfare of society, as well as in a social point ot . vi; w, because it must be evident to every man of ordinary ob servation, that the alternate routine of thieving and no prisonment, compelled by the present state of the law, was neither a protection to property, an example to the depraved, nor a means of reforming the criminal. John James Underwood, a miserable looking man, about sixty years of age, pleaded guilty to an indict ment charging him with stealing; a leather sling, value 2s. Gd., the property of the directors of the poor of St. Pancras parish. The prisoner, in extenuation of his offence, urged that before he took the sling he had made several applica tions to the relieving officer for assistance, bnt without effect, although he told him that he was actually famish ing hunger. The Learned ASSISTANT•JUDQE said, under the cir cumstances, he should ouly sentence the prisoner to six weeks' imprisonment. Thomas Cosgrove was found Guilty of stealing a quan tity of iron, the property of his employer, William Taylor, and sentenced to six months' imprisonment. Ann Clarke was indicted tor stealing a gold watch, the property of Thomas Littler. The prosecutor, who seemed far advanced in years. and described himself as a merchant tailor, said he met the prisoner, on the morning of the 17th instant, about two o'clock, and after talking to him for a short time in a hall, into which he said she forced him, he missed his watch, which was subsequently found upon the prisoner. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and The Learned A S SISTANT-JUDGE said as it appeared that the prisoner had been convicted of s similar o&nce about eight months ago, he should now sentence her to be transported for ten years. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HO USE. The LORD MAYOR stated that he had receivt•d a letter of which the following is a copy, from a tradesman in Ireland, relative to a firm in London which pretended to procure sums of money for those who might require cash : "1 uam, 19th Nov. 1846. "My Lord,—As I presume the inclosed (similar ones having come to other people in trade here) is from some fictitious concern established for no good purpose, I take the liberty of inclosing it to your Lordship that you might take such measures as to prevent fraud, if any is intended.—l have the honour to be your obedient servant, "PAT AI'HUG II." The paper inclosed is directed from John street, Lon don fields, and signed W. B. Bosanquet and Co., factors and commission brokers. After stating the extensive bill transactions in which the firm say they are engaged, and the care they take to prevent the bills which thty negotiate from having the appearance of accommodation paper, they proceed thus;—" If you decide upon this method of making a remittance for our commission at ally time, please to send post-office orders, as it has fre quently occurred that letters inclosing bank notes have never come to hand ; as also a copy of the undertaking, signed by yourself, when you will be remitted such bills for the amount you request, as will not fail meeting your approval. And should you require any bills oa tradesmen or merchants in Ireland, we can furnish you with must respectable bills, either payable at my bankers in Dublin, or the Provincial Bank of Ireland, Old Broad street, London. Any time it should happen you have goods on hand, and find sales dull or difficult, and wish to make trial, by sending us part we will use our beat endeavours to turn them into money for you, to advantage towards paying your bills as they become due, or remit you the cash as they ate sold ; this we can attend to at any time, whether you re quire bills or no, having a gener a l s hi pp i ng connex i on ." His LORDSHIP sa id be h a d rece ived letters from other parts of Ireland, enc l os i ng lik e i n f o rmation as to the alleged dealings o f the parties who promised so m uch ac commodation, a n d w h ose o bj ect ap p ear ed plain enough to him, and ev er y man w h o un d erstoo d mercantile busi ness in London. Mr. Goodman, the chief clerk, said that since he had been in his present situation, several complaints had been made, and copies of the pretended terms of accommoda tion had been transmitted to the Chief Magistrate. In the present instance, however, it appeared that the M,ssrs. liosanquet and Co., who had pitchel upon a respectable same to trade with, were trying their luck with strangers. Formerly they seemed to be satisfied with taking a round of the provincial towns of England, and scouring London itself. The LORD MAYOR intimated that if any case should occur before him in which he could spew the estimati , n in which he held the transactions of the firm, he should most heartily undertake the exercise of his authority. Several persons were brought before his Lordship upon charges of havin g s muggled goods in their pus s‘pssion, and fined in different penalties from 10s. to 40s. each. • _ _ MARLBOROUGH-STREE T. Mr. Charles Benson Breary, a medical gentleman, living at 73, Great Portland-street, was summoned be fore Mr. Hardwick, yesterday, for an assault on 'l'. Read. The complainant said he had two subposnas to servo on the defendant's brother, who lived at 73, Great Port land street. On the 16th init. he went to the defend. ant's house, and on knocking at the door was admitted. Having reason to believe that the party whom he was iu search of was in the house, he went up stairs to the first llobr, and opened a door, which he closed immediately, on discovering that it was a bedroom. Complainant opened the drawing-room door, but seeing twu ladies in HAT MAIZNEETS. SmrraFtELD.--Meidow Hay, 21 5s to 41; Clover ditto 31 5s to 41 17s; and Straw, 11 8s to 1/ 13s per load.

SUGAR.—The markeiarliiiiisTiPlantation is dull and inactive, only 150 hhds having been sold at about previous rates. The public sales have offered 5,703 bags Mauritius, 2,872 bags 10 casks Bengal, 324 bags Madras, 37 cases and casks Penang, 230 hhds Cuba Muscovado, and 140 boxes Clayed ditto, all of which went off heavily, only about two thirds finding buyers at rather lower rates for all de scriptions, excepting the better sorts of Mauritius, which brought the extreme value. Very low soft to good brown Mauritius sold at 35s to 455; low to tine yellow ditto, 45s 6d to 52s 6d, low to fine white Be nares Bengal, 49s Gd to 55s Gd ; good brown to fine grainy christalised yellow, 45s 6d to 67s 6d ; a fiw lots soft greyish yellow, 4Gs 6d to 47s 6d ; good brown to good yellow Cuba Muscovado, 44s to 525; mid brown to good claved yellow, but soft, 42s 6d to 49e 6d ; and mid white ditto, 58s to 58s 6d. The quantity of British Plantation landed last week at the East and West India Docks was 335 hhds, 26 tierces, 46 bar rels; there were taken for home consumption, 970 hhds, 117 tierces, 268 barrels. The stock in the same places is 7,390 hhds, 890 tierces, 2,324 barrels. COFFEE.—The market has been dull. _ _ _ qaantity landed last week at the East and West India Docks way 9 puns 23 hhds ; there were taken for borne consumption 254 puns 37 hhds, and exported 174 puns 92 hhds.

(_From the London New Price Current of November 24.) SUGAR.—To-day low middling and brown sorts of West India Sugar were freely offered at a reduction on the rates of Friday of 6d per cwt; still they were purchased with much caution for the scale and refining purposes, and the supply is yet good, but strong grey and good to fine yellow sorts were in excellent request, and the prices paid were fully equal to those of Friday, and in some instances rather above. liEmprEn.—To-day prices were iirm for Refined Sugar, and the home demand was good for all descriptions. Brown Lumps, according to quality, fetched 62s to 635, and standard lumps 64s per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is wanted, first sort at 335, but little is to be had. MAutunus.—This afternoon the quantity of Mauritius submitted to public sale amounted to 3,674 bags of the new crop, and which sold at full rates for good and fine yellow qualities, but low and middling went 6d, and brown is per cwt. lower. EAST INDIA.—This afternoon the quantity of Madras Sugar offered at public sale amounted to 2,595 bags, but little desire was shown to operate, and a small part only sold at about the former value. MoLAssEs.—Prices are still declining for West India, the demand having been limited at 20s to 26s for low to fine quality, and there is a fair quantity of all sorts at market. East India Molasses are little wanted, and can be had at 21s to 235. Honey can be obtained on lower terms. __ FOIIEIGN.—The niarket has again been scantily supplied with all descriptions of Foreign Sugar available for home consumption, and the deliveries are yet exceeding the arri vals, still no improvement in the value can be quoted, although the stock in first hands is reduced to a small ebb. COFFICE.—This afternoon Ceylon Coffee was sparingly dealt in privately, and 210 bags Piantation at auction were chiefly taken in. For all other descriptions of Coffee the market has a dull appearance, and the tendency of prices downwards. TEA.—lmporters have confidence, and refrained from offer ing any at public sale since our last report. Speculators have come forward with increased freedom, and the trade. both in town and country are for the most part inclined to get well into stock, in consequence of the increased probability of a considerable reduction being made in the duty, and Teas being yet much under the cost of importation. RICE.—To-day Bengal Rice met with little attention, and the sound of 1,864 bags at auction was all taken in at about the former value. SPICES.—To-day at public sale 772 bags of Malabar Pepper were only in part sold at easier rates—heavy brown at 3d to 3%d, half heavy grey 2 3 / 4 d to 2%d, good bright 2%d, and damaged 2d to 3d. 102 bags of white were taken in at 4d for sound. 53 bags of Barbadoes Ginger sold at 28s 6d for small. 76 bags Pimento taken in at 4jd for good. 9 chests 41 casks 105 bags 10 mats Cloves partly sold at 8d to 9d for old dingy. 34 begs of Pod Pepper sold at 96s to 101 s per cwt. 228 bags Wild Nutmegs at 4d to 6d per lb. FaUlT.—The purchases made in Valencia Raisins have been extensive, and the expected arrivals not coming up, prices have risen from 46s to 475. For Currants the market is very firm, and the demand brisk. Zante and Cephalonia 555, Patras 565. For low-priced Turkey Figs there is much in , uiry q . Srtnrrs.—A further increase has taken place in the deliveries of Rum, and the stock is yet deficient of that of last year; and this is still cheaper than any othet spirit. Jamaica Rum has been purchased with more freedom , _ and brought prices fully equal to those of last Tuesday. Prices are firm for Leeward island, but the supply has become in adequate for the demand. Caleutta is wanted, and but little is to be had out of first hands. .Demerara has been sold to a fair extent, and at firm idiots. Brandy is not to be obtained upon lower terms, as the deliveries continue large, and the stock on the decrease. For British made Spirits the demand is still as extensive as ever, arid prices are firm. Hors.—ln Sussex the operations have been upon a more extended scale, but factors ; have been compelled to accept previous reduced rates. All other sorts met with little atten tion, and (hue are free sellers upon former low prices. SALTri l'itE.—Holders have refused to submit to any fur ther reduction in prices, but the home and export demand at present is limited for all qualities, and 600 bags of Calcutta at auction were sold at the previous currency, and went at 25s for middling grey 10 per cwt. ; 25s 64 to 26s for good yellowish 6 per cent, and at 21s Gd to 22s for sugar damaged. A brisker demand for all kinds, it is expected, will take place shortly. British Refined is still in excellent request at 2956 d to 30s. Nitrate of Soda is wanted at 17s 6d to 18s per cwt. • Otis.;—Cocoa Nut has met. with attention, and brought prices fully equal to those previously current. In Palm there has been little passing privately, and prices are falling. For Linseed Oil further reduced rates have been accepted with caution. In Rape Seed Oil many purchases have been made, but better prices are not obtainable. In Olive only a limited business has been transacted, and lower rates have been accepted. Cod is offered upon rather lower terms; still only a limited business has been trans acted. Seal has been sparingly dealt in, and prices tend downwards. In Sperm few purchases have been made, and holders are desirous to sell, good and fine British at 85l to BEI, anet American at 841 to 861 per tun. Lard Oil moves off slowly at 371 to 441 per cwt. TALLow.—Although the town and country trade have been large operators in Russian 'fallow on the spot, still a further decline in prices has taken place, 47s 9d to 48s 3d per cwt being accepted for fine Petersburgh yellow Candle, and at which there are willing sellers. For delivery up to the end of the year few buyers are to be met with, although 47s Gd to 47s 9d would be taken. There are sellers for spring months at 48s. 3d to 48s 6d, but few contracts have been entered into. Home made Tallow sells freely at 49s to 50s nett cash, but having a plentiful supply there are ready sellers at those rates. •Of other sorts of Tal low several parcels have been disposed of privately, but at rather lower prices ; at auction 79 csks of Australian sold, good at 47s to 47s 6d, middling 43s 6d to 46s Gd; 91 csks first sort P. Y. Candle were taken in at 48s, and 10 hhds New York 48s 6d per cwt. There are further arrivals of Tallow. Prices are still higher than last year. ACCIDENT FROM GUN COTTON. —On Sunday evening James Richardson, a young gentleman residing in Besborough-terrace, Pimlico, and several other young men, were in the kitchen trying experiments with gun cotton; a candle fell on the cotton, which instantly ex ploded, blowing out the windows, and when a light was procured Richardson was found lying on the floor, with his face much injured, and his right eye totally destroyed. The other parties prosent were more frigh' ened than hurt. A darinß attempt at robbery was made in Liverpool on Friday. In the middle of the day a lad, who was carrying his master's cash-box into a court devoted to offices_brailoltiag out of Chapel-street, was_ kUooked down by a fellow with a bludgeon, who ran off with the cash box. He was pursued by a crowd of nearly 300 persons ; yet, strange to say (dropping the stick and WA), he scaped. The poor lad remains Eleriously ill. WOJ.ik:itY ittiahOi rit.D; dale Staling each.
