THE SMITHFIELD CLUB CATTLE SHOW. The approach of Christmas is heralded by the usual exhibition of fat cattle at the Baker-street Bazaar. The objection so frequently urged against the extreme obe sity of the animals applies to the present collection, al though with diminished force, for there is a perceptible abatement in the quantity of mere offal in this year's show. One can, of course, more easily excuse the over- ' feeding of animals devoted to the shambles than of those sent to agricultural shows and intended for the improve ment of stock. Where weight is the object principally aimed at, it may matter comparatively little that the grossness of the beast should baffle all attemps to deter mine whether it possesses the acknowledged points of breeding. Granting this, however, it cannot be denied that the practice of over-feeding is wasteful and disgust ing as wall as cruel, and feeders will eventually find their account in its entire abandonment. Apart from the objection just referred to, which will every year diminish—for henceforth the awards of the judges are to be made with reference to " quality rather than quantity,"—the present exhibition possesses attrac tions tor all whose pursuits or tastes lead them to take an interest in the treatment of domestic animals. The number of cattle is larger than that shown last year, and, although none of the beasts may equal in size some of the huge creatures which one has been accus tomed on previous occasions to see groan and sweat under a weary load of fat, many of them possess merit of a high order. The highest prize, the gold medal, has been awarded to the Earl of Leicester for a Devon ox. This is a beau tiful animal, possessing all the chief points of a well bred ox. The Devon is the favourite breed of the Earl of Leicester, we believe; indeed, it is the only one he keeps; and, if he continue to produce such specimens as he has furnished to the present show, he wi ll attain theh highest reputation as a breeder. Anot her ox of th e same breed (No. 42), belonging to his Lordship, w hic h silver medals • gained a prize of twenty sovereig ns and a madal l k a fine animal. The judge s must have found it difriaun to determine which of these two beasts merited the highest prize. In Class I. the highest prize of 30 sovereigns is awarded to a Hereford ox, fed by Prince Albert ; and a sliver medal to Mr. Peter Davis, its breeder. This ani mal—as far as we can judge, for it was lying down—. • appeared to justify the favourable opinion the judges have formed of it. In Class 111. the first prize is given to a Hereford ox, which it is notified has been fed upon hay, vegetables, hArley, beans, oatmeal, linseed-cake, boiled linseed, and l'i'nseed oil ! This oleaginous ox is the property of the Duke of Rutland. The sheep, generally, both long and short-woolled, are good specimens. Amongst the former may be par ticularised No. 120, ithe property of Mr. Stoman, and amongst the latter most of those shown by Mr. Samuel Webb, of Babraham, near Cambridge, who has gained several prizes, and one lot belonging to the Duke of Richmond, for which hi s G race h as a l so o bt a i ne d a pr i se . The show of pigs is very good. There is one pen of the Chinese breed which will attract notice. But there are three Berkshire pigs —which, by the way, is the Drent stock of most breeds—that distance all competi- Ike. They have been bred by, and are the property of, Mr. Piney, M.P.

Mr. John Joseph, of No. 22, Walbrook-street, Hoxton, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Gibbs, on the charge of destroying a letter, containing a cheque for 5/., under the following circumstances:— Alexander Scott, of No. 3, Great Rider.street, St. James's-square, stated that the prisoner was chief clerk to the house oFM‘Killup and Co., and he was an under clerk in the same firm. On Tuesday evening, about five o'clock, they had a quarrel respecting a pipe, for which he was to give half-a-crown, on the representation that it was a meerschaum one, but on examination it turned out to be nothing but pipe-clay. He refused to take it, upon which the prisoner said that if he was not paid the 2s. fid. ho would burn all letters that came to him. On leaving the office Mr. Joseph locked the letter-box, and on the following morning unlocked it, and took out the letters, but refused to give one directed to him, contain ing a cheque for 5/. on Messrs. Barclay, Bevan, and Co., the bankers, and still persisting not to give up the letter when leaving the office in the evening, he followed him into the street and called a policeman, upon which the prisoner, in presence of the officer, tore the letter up and flung it about the street. Ife picked up what pieces he could find, but the most important parts were lost, and he was unable to get the money until he had communi cated with his friends in Scotland. The officer, although he saw the prisoner tear up the letter, refused to take him into custody. Alderman GIBBS asked if the officer was present. James Hare, 586, said he certainly was calhd to take the prisoner into custody, and observed him take the letter out of his pocket and tear it up. Alderman GIBBS—And why did you not take him into custody, as you could not tell what valuable docu ment might have been enclosed in the letter ? Hare— My reason for not doing so was, that the prisoner said the prosecutor had borrowed money from him, and he intenled keeping the letter until he was paid, and to show me his respectability he went with me to his em ployer, and said that if at any time he was wanted he could always be found there. Inspector Sparry said Hare was a "young officer just come from drill. Alderman GIBBS said that circumstance was very for tunate for the prisoner, for if a more experienced con stable had been called, he most assuredly would have been locked up. The prisoner said he certainly tore the letter up, not being aware of the consequences attending such an act. The prosecutor asserted that he told him early in the morning it was a letter of great consequence to him (Scott). A solicitor, who attended for the defence, said that it was evident there could be no felonious intention, how ever improper his conduct had been in tearing up the letter and cheque in a moment of irritation. Alderman GIBBS said that the prisoner's conduct was most unwarrantable, and as chief clerk of an establish ment, he ought to have had more command over his temper. The fact of some agreement about a pipe only amounted to a debt, and did not justify him in detaining and destroying the letter. Ile should like to know if the prosecutor had written to Scotland, and when he ex pected an answer? Mr. Scott replied that he had, and most lik e l y h e should receive a communication on Friday next. Alderman Genns—Then I shall bind the prisoner over in the city of 501. to keep the peace towards the prose cutor, and to attend on Friday next, when it will be as certained whether the latter has sustained any loss by Mr. Joseph's rash conduct. John Cantpbell and John ,Smith were placed at - the bar under the following circemstances:— The prisoners were examined last weak, but the facts are shortly these:—On Thursday night last Police-con stable Tyler, 112, was on duty in plain clothes in Moor fields, when he saw the prisoners loitering about, and suspecting they were going to commit a burglary, h e watched their movements for some time, and from what took place during that period he apprehended and conveyed them to the station - house. On being searched he found on Campbell some inciter matches and a piece of candle, which had evidently been recently lighted ; and on Smith he found two skeleton keys and three pi , di-el- keys. He then proceeded to their r es p ect i ve lodgings, and at the former prisoner's found two sheep tlins fresh from the carcase; and at the latter's a quan tity of mutton fat, melted down, besides a sack marked with blood. A number of sheep having lately been stolen, he communicated with Hans, a serg ean t 'of the K divisie n of police, when it WM soon ascertained that, on Saturday night week, two sheep were stolen from the marshes at the Isle of Dogs ; and the sergeant deposed to see:ng both prisoners at Limehouse on the night in question, and calling the attention of another officer to them. The skins were at once identified by Mr. James Rilby, as belonging to the two sheep which he had lost, his men having seen the flock (43) safe on Saturday afternoon, just before dusk. The prisoner denied they were at Limehouse, but, it being shown that Campbell had been tried at the Old Bailey some time ago with his master, for forgery on the Bank of England, and Smith bearing anything but a good character, they were committed for trial. BOW-STREET. A respectable looking widow, named Elizabeth Odell, was summoned before Mr. Jardine, to show cause why she had not paid the sum of 1/. 15s. 9d., being the post horse duty due to the Excise Commission. Tilbrook, an Excise officer, stated that the defendant had always paid the demands hitherto made upon her with punctuality, &tit in the present instance she had expressed her inability, owing to great distress and pri vation, to raise the amount. She was in lodgings at 20, Museum street, and had six children, but there did not appear to be anything left to distrain, except the miserable bed upon which they slept. Still it was his duty to apply for a distress warrant for the seizure of her remaining goods, if the sum was not forthcoming. Mr. JARDINE said the sum was not a very large one; and asked the defendant if she could not get it from her friends?—Mi , .. Odell said that her husband died two years ago, leaving her with six young children unpro- Med for. He had carried on the post-horse business before his death, although latterly it had not provided them with the meaneof comfortable support; and, since his death, it had been entirely unproductive; she was, consequently, unable to extricate herself from the diffi-- eulties in which she had become involved, and every thing but her. bed was gone. She had completely ex hausted her friends and could not ask them for further relief, and the only means she had of living was the trifling remuneration shi received from chasing and washing. The officer said there could be no doubt that her case was really a most distressing one. Mr. JARDINE said he had no alternative but to grant a distress warrant, but it should remain in the hands o' the officer for a fortnight, in order chat she might try to get up the amount in that time. The money belonged to the public, and she would be bound to pay it. Mrs. Odell—l have tried again and again to obtain the money, in every quarter where I had the least chance of borrowing it; and any! f urt h er attempt w ill b e qu i te use l e ss. At times we have been nearly starving.—(The poor woman cried bitterly.) Mr. JARDINE—You will have to pay it, and they must take the bed from under you if you do not. Mrs. Odell then left the court, the excise officer kindly promising to lay her very distressing case before the Commissioners. mony. Oa the arrival of the procession at the fine old parish church of Wyznondham, the coffins were carried into the interior of the church, and placed in the middle aisle under the pulpit. A portion of the funeral service was here read by the Rev. David Jones, curate of Wy mondhatu, after which the bodies were removed to the outside of the church, where the mortal remains of the deceased were deposited side by side. Many of the auditory were moved to tears by the mournful spectacle, and seldom has the solemn and affecting service of the church exercised a more chastening influence upon a congregation. THE ADJOURNED INQUEST. The Coroner (Mr. Press) resumed his inquiry this morning (Tuesday), at the King's Head. On taking his seat he stated that ho had received a communication from the magistrates in reply to his application that they would permit the woman James (who is now in the Bridewell at Wymondham) to be examined before the jury. The magistrates, wishing to afford every facility to the prosecution of the coroner's investigation, sug gested that the jury should adjourn to the Bridewell and there examine Mrs. James. They also expressed a wish that the examination of this witness should be strictly private, a request to which the Coroner acceded. The Coroner and jury thereupon adjourned to the Bridewell, and,:after receiving the evidence of Mrs. James, agreed upon a further adjournment, in order to enable some of the jury to be prosent at the funeral of the lamented gen tleman. About half-pest two o'clock the jury re-as sembled at the King's Head, when the Coroner announced to the reporters present that, after hearing the evi dence of Mrs. James, he had come to the conclusion that it was not desirable that .her evidence should be published at present. Mrs. James, who, it will be re membered, was the prisoner's housekeeper at the Potash Farm, hes admitted that he came home on the night of the murder armed, and with his face disguised, and that he hastened to his bedroom in a state of great heat and tremor. The CORONER then proceeded to examine the police who apprehended the prisoner on the morning after the murder, and whose evidence has already been published. The prisoner asked one of the police (Pont) on his way to the gaol, "Is any one suspected besides me ?" The policeman replied he did not know. The prisoner added, " I have been on much better terms of late with the old gentleman than I used to be, but young Mr. Jermy and me could not get on. I think it was the last time I was at Stanfield-hall I told Mr. Jermy that if his son remained in the room I should not sign" (or perhaps " stay in.") The prisoner went on to say that Mr. Jermy thereupon desired his son to leave the room. Young Mr. Jermy said ho thought he had a right to remain in the room, but he nevertheless went out. The prisoner added, " I have had words with them, but I hope I should be one of the last to do a thing like that." Rush further stated, "I wanted to have some business with the old gentleman last night, but hearing that the son was at home, I did not go. If I had gone I should have got there about eight o'clock, and that was about the time of the murder; if I had, possibly that occurrence might not have taken place, but I cannot say." Re added, "I am sorry for them." The CORONER—There is strong evidence affecting Mr. Rush, but an absence of all motive, so far as the evidence before me is concerned. The inquiry was proceeding when our report left. There was no probability of the investigation being concluded to night. We are informed that, after the strictest search, no will can be found among the papers of Mr. Isaac Jenny or his son. COURT OF ALDERMEN. Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of public business. VETTING LOTTERIES. The following report was read by the TOWN CLERK: " In obedience to an order of this Honourable Court of the 21st day of November last, to consider and report as to betting lotteries, and the means for their suppres sion or conviction, and to report our opinion thereon, we, whose names are hereunto subscribed, your com mittee for general purposes, do certify that we have taken the subject into consideration, and it appearing that, at a Quarter Sessions for this City, held on the 4th day of November last, the Court confirmed the decision of the magistrates, fining a licensed victualler, within this City, fbr allowing a Derby Sweep to be played for at his house, we recommend that notices be issued by the Clerk of the Peace to all licensed victuallers within this City, informing them of such conviction, and cautioning them against any such practices being carried on at their re spective houses, as contrary to law. "All which we submit to the judgment of this Ho nourable Court. Dated this sth day of December, 1848. "John Key, Chapman Marshall, Peter Laurie, John Pirie, Samuel Wilson, john Humphery, W. Lawrence, William Thompson, F. Graham Moon, William Hunter, Thomas Q. Finis, Thomas Sidney, David Salomons, J. Challis." Michael Gibbs, Alderman COPELANB rose immediately to oppose the report. He said he should move that the report be re ferred back to the committee, in order that they might reconsider it, and bring it back in a very different form. It was not his wish that the matters to which the com mittee had objected should make further progress, but ho thought it exceedingly unjust in the committee not to take into consideration the conduct of the rich with respect to practices similar to those which had been marked by their condemnation. He was not ono of those who could relLh a law for the rich and an other for the poor. He could not see why he, as an Alderman of London, should be considered as right in doing that which was to be punished in a person differently circumstanced by a penalty of great severity. The magistracy had already the power of inflicting fines upon the licewed victualler from 5/ upwards to 501. for violations of the law; but that they should issue notices intimating their intention to deprive him of his pro perty, the value of which he had probably increased by his good conduct, to plunge him and his family into po titive ruin because he had a Derby sweep in his house, was a stretch of authority not to be borne. To proceed, too, to dispose of the charge against a licensed victualler without the hearing of one tittle of evidence against him, was an act of flagrant injustice.—(Several Aldermen hero said there had been abundance of evidence.) There bad not been any evidence before the committee, of which ho heard, and he therefore wished the subject to be recon sidered by them, and the report to which they agreed referred back to thorn, in order that they might obtain the opinions of the law-officers of the corporation as to whether they were justified in arriving at such a conclu sion as that which had been just delivered. He would repeat that he had no idea of permitting betting upon dice and upon horse-racing amongst some classes, and pro hibiting and punishing it amongst others. As for horse-racing, he hoped and believed it would be legal ised, and protected and encouraged. He wished to wit ness the superiority of the breed of English horses, and he believed that the battle of Waterloo would not have terminated as it had if that breed had not been kept up with remarkable care and vigilance. Against such i a one•sided investigation as that upon which the commit tee had found their recommendation he again and again protested.—(Murmurs.) Had the committee examined any witness? (An Alderman said " You ,could not have heard the case, for you were not present.") He admitted that he had not been present. He regretted that his absence had beeu caused by unavoidable cir cumstances. He admitted that some frauds took place in sweeps ; but did not fraud take place in every trade ? Was any business free from imposition ? Ho trusted the Court would send back the report and obtain, for whatever report might be brought up again, the sanction of the law authorities. Alderman Copeland then pro posed that the report be referred back for the purpose mentioned in his speech. The motion, which was an amendment to the proposi tion, that the report of the committee be agreed to, was not seconded. Alderman fiIIMPIIERY asked Alderman Copeland what Derby sweeps were, in order that they might judge of their mischief. Alderman CoPELAND—It was you who gave notice of referring the subject of the sweeps to a committee —you ought to know. Alderman HIIMPIIERY—I gave notice when I found that the person who was convicted did not care for what had taken place. • Alderman CHALLIS hoped the Court would not think of referring. the report back to the committee. They could not contemplate such a mode of dealing with it if they had any respect for the relation between master and servant, calculated as such practices were to destroy the confidence so necessary to be maintained. Common policy required that the magistrates should most de cidedly set their faces against them.—(Hear.) The LORD MAYOR said he had received a letter from Broughing Puckeridge, in Hertfordshire, which showed the activity with which the persons engaged in the " sweeps" scoured the country for victims. His Lord ship said it was quite impossible seriously to deny that the sweep: occasioned great mischief, particularly if the success of the adventurers was at all.proportioned to their activity.—(Hear, hear.) Alderman COPELAND—What I complain of, is the sweeping resolution of the Court to take array the licences of those who may have sweeps in their houses. The LORD MAYOR—The report is a caution to all publicans in the City not to allow " sweeps," with a fair intimation of what will follow the neglect of such caution. Alderman COPELAND—It is known that cards are played in public houses with impunity, and still you say to a man who allows a sweep—you shall lose your licence. Now, Ido not know how that sort of sentence is at all consistent with the impunity in the other case. Alderman SALOmoNs said it was particularly incum bent upon the magistrates to pat an end to a system which was working such serious evil. Racing, which used to be confined to the rich, might now be called the property of everybody, and those who could not afford to be at any pecuniary loss were daily involved in diffi culties in consequence of the temptations to which they were exposed by expectations certain to be disappointed. The magistrates were bound to interfere, and in such cases it was better to go beyond the law, than to give them the sanction which a moderate infliction was likely to create. Convincedash dop ew t as the te tonethraetsotlhuobestwwayhicolfl the r reporteventinggaingwas to a expressed, he hoped the Court would unani mously agree to it. He rejoiced that the Recorder had so plainly stated from the bench the extent to which the magistracy ought to go, and he knew that such an opinion would have a great effect all through the country. Alderman (Sheriff) FINNIS said he :had, from the official position which he held, been enabled to ascertain that " sweeps" formed, in a great variety of instances, the groundwork of crime. Every hand in the court, with the exception of Al derman Copeland's, was then held up for the adoption j of the report._ Aldermqn COP' LAND—I protest againgt "such a pro ceeding. The committee have come to a resolution with out the examination of evidence. who RECORDER said that Alderman Copeland had spoken of the impunity with which he considered the rich were treated in comparison with the penalties to which others were subjected. If, however, Alderman Copeland would supply an individual of the class to which he alluded as privileged, he (the Recorder) should not only recommend that the highest tine should be inflicted, but advise that the City Solicitor should be instructed by the Court to prosecute. It was then ordered that Mr. Clarke should at once issue the necessary notices to all :licensed victuallers in the city of London. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Dec. fi.) Susan.—To-day no general decline took place in the value of raw Sugar, but home trade buyers were not disposed to enlarge their purchases, and from shippers less demand was experienced. West India Muscovado was dealt in with caution, and in some cases the rates taken are rather under those of Friday. At auction 150 hhds Barbadoes went off slowly and at rather lower rates; fine yellow at 395, good 37s to 38s, middling 35s to 36s 6d; and 210 hhds Trinidad, middling yellow 355, low 34s to 348 6d, and fine brown 33s 6d.

COURT OF QUEENS BENCH, Dec.s. _ _ . • (Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Mr. Justice WIGLITMAN and a Special Jury.) ROWCLIPFE V. BARNARD GREGORY, - - - This was an action to recover compensation in da mages for an illegal trespass. The defendant pleaded not guilty, that the plaintiff was not possessed, and that the house in question was the pro perty of the Rev. Mr. Tyler, the rector of St. Giles's. It appeared from the statement of Mr. Hum frey that the plaintiff had carried on for some years,as also bis father, the business of a builder and plasterer, at 23, Crown -court, St. Giles's, and that the defendant claimed possession of the house; that he employed a number of workmen to rase the house to the ground. This was accordingly done aft-r various short delays. The plaintiirhad in consequence been a loser, and clsimed damages to the amount of 3001. or 4001. for the injuries he bid sustained. It was proved that the house wal pulled down, except tbo lower part, and that ail the Inateriali, after the house was pulled down, were taken to Grcgcry's pre mis,s close at hand. Mr. Edward Roberts, a surveyor, stated that it would take about 3571. to repair the house. The ground floor would require 401. or 501. to repair it. Mr. MONTAGUE CHAMBERS, who appeared for the de• fondant, said that on August 18, 1789, the Rev. Dr. Put ner, the then rector of St. Giles, granted a lease for 61 years to Edward Rowcliffe, the father of the plaintiff, and when it expired the present rector, the Rev. Mr. Tyler, the property being church property, entered into as agreement with Mr. Gregory, by which he agreed to repair and rebuild the houses in Dudley-court, which showed that the defendant was acting under the authority of the Rev. Mr. Tyler. He also contended that even if Mr. Tyler was not en titled to the possession of tho entire house, be had an undoubted right to the upper part of it, which alone had been pulled down. Mr. Gregory had given notice to Mr. Roweliffe before he commenced the pulling down, and workmen were engaged at ss. a day, in order that they might be particularly careful in not doing damage to the lower part of the house, which alone was occupied by the plaintiff. The lease of the plaintiff having expired, he was a trespasser, and the defendant, he contended, had a perfect right to pull down the building, which had already been condemned by the overseers of the parish. Evidence in support of the defence was then adduced, which went to prove the material facts set up by the Learned Counsel. The leases and other documents were put in. The property had formerly belonged to the late Dowager Ducheijs of,Dualey, and,it4was given by her for the use of the rector of St. Giles for the time being. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN summed up, and the jury found a verdict for the defendant upon all the issues. PREROGATIVE COURT, Dec. 5. MATHISON V. MAGRATH. In this case the late Colonel Melville Gore Mathison's will is concerned. That gentleman, when at Enniskillen, proposed marriage to Miss Eliza Magrath, but before it was solemnized he was taken ill, when he made a will, by which he bequeathed the whole of his property to his mother for her life, and then to Miss Magrath, say ing, if anything should happen to him he wished to pro vide for her. The will bore date the 14th of March, 1833, and the marriage took place the following Novem ber, and four children were the result. It appeared the colonel died, leaving his father and mother with his widow and four children his survivors. The mother, through her proctor, now asked to have probate granted to the will of her son, under which she took a life in terest. Dr. HAGGARD opposed it on the part of the guardian of the children, who were minors, contending that the will was revoked by the subsequent marriage and the birth of the children. A great deal of legal acumen was displayed in the learned advocate's argument, and the following cases were cited:—Fox v. Marston, Israel v. Roden, Walker v. Walker, 2 Curteis, 864. The learned civilian then referred to the last edition (4th) of Mr. Justice Williams's work in support of these cases, and contended that the will must be revoked, and the children provided for. Dr. R. PHILLIMORE, on the part of the life annuitant under the will, contended that the will was good in law; that the widow and children were provided for under that will, though it would not take effect until the death of the mother of the testator. He contended that the case of Fox v. Marston, and Israel and Roden, decided by the Privy Council, did not apply to this case, and Quoted the case of Marston v. Roe, decided in the Ex chequer by Mr. Justice Tindal. He argued that the will before the Court was in a very different position, for it was made in contemplation of the marriage, and a provision was made for the wife, and therefore for the children also. The Learned JUDGE asked what might be the posi tion of the children if their mother married again? Dr. R. PIIILLIMORE allowed that might change the position of the case. In continuing his argument, the Learned Counsel referred to the case of Brown v. Thompson, where the party made a will before mar riagewroivi ireng and futurepfor w th heg e a l v a e d ybiwrthhotebeacaemheildt.helntetshtaattoirn's. stance the will was not revoked. The Learned JUDGE thought the estate having been left to the lady and her heirs accounted for it, as the child was heir to the estate upon the demiso of its mother. Dr. R. PIIILLIMORE, in continuation, said that the case of Walker v. Walker, which had been quoted by Dr. Haggard, he held to be an ex parte one, and did not therefore bear upon this. He contended that the testator had no intention to alter this will, feeling it to be a final disposition of his property, an d did not t h ere f ore attempt to mher. The Learned JUDGE thought, after so many decisions on this question, it had been settled. The question is, did the marriage amount to a revocation of the testator's will? The case of Fox v. Marston did not appear to be in point.—Judgment deferred. STANFIELD-HAIL MMDERS. WYMONDHAM, TUESDAY EVENING.—The examina tion of the prisoner hush before the magistrates at Nor wich Castle was continued until a late hour last night, when a most important disclosure was made. Wo men tioned the existence of a rumour on Saturday and Sun day that a mask had been discovered in the prisoner's house, and we are enabled to state from the best autho rity that up to Sunday evening no mask had been found. A most careful search was, however, made by the police yesterday, which was successful, a black mask having been discovered among a bundle of newspapers so care fully folded up and concealed that nothing but a careful examination of each newspaper could have led to its dis covery. This mask covers the face as far as the mouth, to which a piece of black lace is attached, effectually concealing the lower part of the faee. A messenger was immediately dispatched to Norwich with the mask, and it was produced before the magistrates. The prisoner appeared for a moment confounded by the production of this important link in the chain of evi dence, but speedily recovered the same tone of levity and indifference which ho has exhibited ever since his ap prehension. He cross-examines many of the witnesses, but many of his questions are so foolish and irrelevant that the ma gistrates have been compelled to tell him ho is doing himself no good by asking such questions. He fre quently inquires after the servant, Eliza Chestney, who lies dangerously wounded in the thigh, and manifests much concern for her situation, but it is observed that he has never once shown the smallest solicitude for Mrs. Jermy, or mentioned her name to those about him. When taken to the bedside of the lady's maid, Rush ob served that he was sorry to see her suffering so much. She remarked that she had no doubt it was he who had fired at her. He said, " Had I a cap on?" but the girl, who was then suffering great pain, only replied, " Don't ask me such questions, Mr. Rush." The medical men hope this young woman will eventually recover. The replies to inquiries this morning relative to the state of Mrs. Jermy were, that she is slowly recovering. The medical men in attendance have removed a splinter of bone from the broken arm of the unhappy lady, and al though they entertain a sanguine hope of saving the limb, there is reason to fear that she will never regain the free use of her arm. The funeral of the deceased gentlemen took place this day (Tuesday) at twelve o'clock. The funeral was strictly private, the cortege consisting of two hearses, three mourning coaches, containing the relatives of the deceased, and Mr. Colman and several of the family tenantry on horseback. The chief mourners were Mr. Thomas Preston, of Lowestoft, only surviving brother of the late Mr. Isaac Jermy, and Sir Thomas Beevor, Bart., of Hargham, the elder deceased's father•in-law. The coffins were of plain oak, severally bearing the following inscriptions on brass plates :—" Isaac Jermy, Esq., died 28th November, 1848, aged 59," and " Isaac Jermy Jermy, Esq., died 28th November, 1848, aged 27." Great precautions, were taken, in consideration of the dan gerous state of Mrss. Jermy, to conduct the funeral as quietly as possible, and a quantity of straw was laid down on all the footpaths and carriage-ways leading to the hall, in order that the sound of the carriage-wheels might not be heard by the unhappy lady so awfully be reaved of her husband and father-in-law. The police prevented any person from entering the park or ap proaching the hail this morning, except those actually invited to the funeral; and the result of these precautions was, that the sad ceremony was performed with the utmost privacy and si!ence. At twelve o'clock the bodies were removed in two hearses from the hall, and the funeral procession set out for Wymondham church. The shops in the village of Wymondham were all shut, i and the entire pop u l a ti on a ppeared to have assembled n tho village and churchyard, to witness the OW OM. ...,~ THE COUNTRY MARKETS. LIVERPOOL, DEC. s.—Excepting a fair quantity of oatmeal, the supplies of grain and flour coastwise and from Ireland are small this week. From Canada we have derived good supplies of wheat, peas, and flour, and we have again a liberal amount of produce and ma nufacture of the United States. Dude.; have been paid at this port, between the 25th November and the Ist December inclusive, on wheat—foreign, 161 quarters ; colonial, 4,320 quarters.

Indian meal—fo reign, 1,335 barrels. Barley—foreign, 44 quarters. The trade throughout the week has been without anima tion, and prices have been rather easier. There was a good attendance of millers and dealers at our market this morning, and there was a better sale for wheat than of late at prices a trifle under those of this day sten., night, but fully as good as on Friday. Flour was a dull sale, but not lower. Indian corn also moved slowly at late prices. Oats and oatmeal supported the rates of last week, with a scarcity of good mealers. Beans in fair demand, and quite as dear. Peas slow sale, and is per quarter cheaper. Fine malting barley was in request at late rates.

Business has in deed been very dull, and when sales have had to be effected from ship, some reduction upon even last Tues day's low rates was submitted to.
