MORNING SUN MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CHRONICLE.—The price of English wheat advanced 2s. per quarter to-day in Mark-lane, and the supply was extremely short. The harvest may be now looked upon as nearly over, and the accounts are precisely the same as we have already stated. The additional supply of foreign corn which will be required before next harvest over and above the 2,000,000 quarters already received may now be'stated with some accuracy at from 1,500,000 quarters to 2,000,000 of quarters. The accounts from Scotland to• day are more favourable than last week, and the crops are now nearly secured ; but the greater portion has been housed too quickly, and fears are en tertained that it will not keep in the stack. The potato crop in Scotland has been seriously injured, and altogether .the yield in that quarter of the country will be deficient, both in quality and quan tity. The certainty which now exists that large im portations of foreign corn will soon be required has produced great activity in the Mediterranean ports, and wheat has risen in price there considerably. Orders to the extent of half a million of quarters have already been forwarded, and will be in course of arrival throughout the winter. The etThet has already begun to show itself in the ail of our rate of exchange. The following letter from a highly respectable party at Plymouth gives an accurate account of the state of the harvest in Cornwall and Devonshire : " The harvest in this part of the country is not yet completed, for we hear that some wheat and much oats are still exposed . iR the high lands, and, owing to the ex cessive rains for the last two months, our farmers have had a very expensive, tedious, and unprofitable season. " Wheat in some sheltered situations is found to yield, but generally it is deficient in acreable produce, light in weigt, weathered, with not a few samples sprouted, and most of it stacked in bad condition. " Barley is generally a coarse grain and badly saved, and much care will he required in selectim , samples for malting. " Oats promised a great crop, but have so much suffered by rain that the produce is lessened and greatly injured. " Hay in general was a good burden, but much has been badly saved. " There are :romplaints of the potato crop, and though yet too early to form an accurate conclusion, it is appre hended that, froM the excessive wetness of the low-lands, there will be a partial deficiency. " Seldom has-the eofn . rilkiSlitttriCt Noitmpre ex hausted than it was for two months Wow farvest, wen much foreign corn was entered at 20s. &l. to 245. Bd. per quarter, for want of British to supply local consumption." There is nothing in the shape of exaggeration in the above report, and it may be taken with perfect saity as aifordin , r a fair average picture of the reports from a il parts d'Eneland. No doubt is entertained in the best informed quarters connected with Mark-lane, that Sir Robert Peel sees the necessity of proposing a consider able change in the Corn-laws. POST.—The origin of the irregularities in the Exche quer Bill market is not yet openly, or rather not posi tively, stated, but we believe there is no longer much uncertainty upon the subject. The weakness exhibited in the Foreign Stock market, especially in what are called the " Sporting securities," is thought to confirm, to a great extent, the accuracy of the disclosure made by us on this point in our last City article. Suspicion attaches very strongly to the Boulogne conspirators,, who are known to have a partiality for low-priced ' stocks, as a class best adapted to their views. When manoeuvres of a most disreputable nature are so readily passed over by the Committee of the Stock Exchange, the utility of that body may, we think, once more he fairly questioned. As long as they were confined to the bubbles of Spain, Portugal, anti Spanish America, our remonstrances at the Com mittees want of energy and straightforward inde pendence met, we fear, with but little attention. Now, however, when the best of our domestic securieties are found to suffer in character by its excessive supineness, we do not so much despair of a salutary reformation. The Committee could not, we should imagine, have re mainet; all this time in ignorance of what was passing around is. It appear.: , from inquiries instituted by several Portu guese hondhoi;lers, naturally anlions to learn the object and result of the interview which took place between Lord Aberdeen ano a deputation from the Committee on Saturday last, that Mr. Thornton, the Chairman, had addressed a memorial to his Lordship, praying for his mediation with the Portugnese Government in effecting a compromise for the dividends overdue on the Old Bonds without disturbing the original securities on which their money was advanced, and which znemorial is supported by and recommended to his Lordship',? immediate notice by most of the first merchants and bankers of the City of London, among whom also are several Members of Parliament ; and it will be satisfactory tc this ill nsed class of British subjects to learn that Lord Aber deen most kindly and courteously promised to forw:frd the representation to her Majesty's Minister at Lisbon, with instructions to his Lordship in support of their claims. This conduct on the part of the Noble Earl will suffice, perhaps, to remove from the mind of a Morning Contemporary (the Chronic(e) the illiberal .suspicions in which he had allowed himself to indulge to the prejudice of his Lordship. An outside jobber in the tea-trade stopped payment on Saturday, but the amount of his liabilities are so small (only about 3,0001.) as to he scarcely worthy of no ;Lica in connection with the ordinary operations of the market ; nor should we, perhaps, hare alluded to the natter, were it not for the purpose of meeting any exa zgerated report that may possibly go abroad in re ferenct* to it frimE2.—A circular has lately been issued to the ac tuaries of savci: l sa'-hanks by the Controller of the National A:AA-oft-ice, directing theni to prepare, on the 20th of nett month, returns, descriptive of the occupations and rank of the depositors, distinguishing minors from adults. The idea of these returns, which will contain a curt; is illustration of the state of society in England, an d the habits and conditions of various (lasses, is taken front the French, who have pub lished such returns fur some years. It is obvious that the utility of the rettirDs will greatly depend on the adoption of an uniformity of classification by all the savings'-banks, since, if each adopts a different arrange ment, it will be a work of great trouble to draw from theta an intelligible result, even if it could be effected at all. It is, therefore, singular, that no instructions for the classification have been given to the banks, who are left to their own discretion. The actuary of one of them suggests the following division, to be adopted by them all, so that the desired uniformity may be produced:— " Class I.—Domestic servants of every description, male and female, including stewards, companions, go vernesses, couriers, &c. " Class 2.—Artisans, mechanics, handicraftmen, la bourers, shopmen, and others engaged in manual opera tions, and receiving wages therefor. " Class 3.—Tradesmen, shopkeepers, and others car rying on business on their own account, and working for themselves, or employing others under them. " Class 4.—Soldiers, sailors, and police. _ _ " Class s.—Officers and clerks in the Government ser vice, persons engaged in commercial, literary, and scientific pursuits, whether employed by or employing others, and generally any individuals not comprehended in the above classes. " Class C.—Married women ; also widows and single women without occupation, either living with their pa rents or fritmds, or living by themselves on independent nricuts. " Class 7.—Single women and widows having occupa tions as means of subsistence, such as dress-makers, l odging - house-keepers, and the like. "Class 8 . --Minors of both sexes, including all who were minors at the time of the original deposit, and who have since attained their majority, but have not notified tie same t o t h e officers of the savings' bank, so as to be comprehended in any of the above classes." CENTRAL C_IiIMINAL COURT. O L D CO James Foy, indicted for feloniously for g i ng f our or ders £-)r the delivery of goods, with intent t o d e f rau d H enry . CHARGE OF CONSPIRACY.

Having, however, quarrelled about -e the e( ( l l' an sion of the plundered property, Jackson informed 'the assignees of what had occurred. Hirshberg had at tempted to escape for Sydney, and had been arrete ind on board ship. The case fell to the g round, however, consequence of its being set forth therein that Cla s . hopska had been "sworn upon the Holy Gospel," whereas, being a Jew, it appeared he had been sworn upon the the Old Test a ment. This fact having been proved,. R The ECORDER admitted that that objection was fatal, and directed the acquittal of the prisoners. CHARGE OF OBTAINING GOODS UNDER FALSE PRE TENCES. Benjamin Parker, a respectable-looking man, was indicted for obtaining goods under false pretences.ii Mr. CLARKSON, having stated the case for the prose cution, called the following witnesses: — James Baxter—l live in Bow-lane, and am agent for Fergusson and Co., of Belfast, Irish linen bleachers. On the 22d June last, I was waited on by a person named Arenfield, who said he was buying for Parker and Co., of Lower Thames-stroet, general dealers. He presented their card. In consequence of what he said, I called on Tarn and Law, of Addle-street, Wood-street. He had The Park e r an d C o . w ith g oods three days before. "the next day I went to Lower Thames-street, and asked f j 0 0 r i. 1 ,... r . r. _Jolm Parker. I saw Joseph ' Parke ' r, and not fe _T• n.. l _ , called ,‘ amain at one o'clock. I then saw de ,,r"ft"atl. o alvilr. John Parker, and handed him an account saia piece wa , f linen, bought by Henfield, he paid me, and ainnp e s nt . ed more goods. The next day he came to me.

He said he was r t people. W hen he ~,l l l. a n n of property and related to rich 10 boxes from Brak e lbt t i away he said he was going to buy Ty and Brickwick. I have never - seen my goads si nce Had I known he had not been a shipper of g oo ds h i a( A:ould not have supplied him. Parker said Arenfiehilmyeri ail,i)(titrehased goods for him. and was a sharp excellent judge, and that he had got four-and.a.h a V , r nt. off the purchaser, I had taken off 41, per acreot. Pe for ready money. When Arenfield gave me the card he said h e wan t e d t a b uy some goods for Joh n P ark , r Co. who were large shippers. When I went t,, Thames-street, dan and asked to see John Parker, I was introduced to the defendant. The office of the defendant was a small one without the appearance of any goods whatever. He arranged to pay me on the second Monday in July. I never was 2tud. I went on the second Monday in July to the pre mises in Lower Thames-street, and saw no one there but a porter. I never saw defendant again until he was in custody. The goods consisted of 39 pieces of Irish linen of the ♦alue of 641.55., and of two cases of damask, value 1201. The goods were delivered on 26th June. By the RECORDER—The contract was completed with Parker before the conversation with him took place. I cannot say whether I should have sent the goods if the conversation had not taken place. My confidence was increased by the conversation. It is doubtful if I should have sent the goods if that conversation had not taken place. I think I would not, but I cannot say. The RECORDER—I think that is hardly sufficient to support the allegation of the indictment, that the goods were obtained in consequence of the representations made in that conversation. Mr. CLARKSON contended that the fiat of the prisoner, whose name was Benjamin Parker, and who was an un certificated bankrupt, having represented himself as John Parker, was sufficient to support the indictment. Witness recalled and examined by the RECORDER—I had never before heard of either John or Benjamin Parker in my life. The RECORDER said if the witness had stated that the conversation had preceded the contract, or if he had stated that he had sent the goods in consequence of that conversation, and would not have sent them had it not taken place, then he should have been of opinion that the false pretences had been proved. He would not, however, stop the case, if the Counsel for the prosecu tion thought they could offer any additional and suffi cient proof Mr. CLARKSON said, that, notwithstanding he was strongly urged by those interested in the prosecution to proceed, he felt it his duty to bow to the decision of the Court. The Jury then, under the direction of the Court, acquitted the prisoner. Mr. C. Phillips, Mr Chambers, and Mr Ballantine ap peared for the defence. There is another indictment against the prisoner for conspiracy. Joseph Parker, the brother of the above defendant, was then indicted for conspiring, with him, to defraud Messrs. Fame and Laws, merchants, of goods to the amount of 5001. Mr. PHILLIPS said that the defendant having only been .aken into custody within the last few days, was entitled to traverse the indictment, and he therefore ap plied to the Court to allow him to be liberated upon bail. The defendant having pleaded not guilty. The RECORDER ordered him to enter into his own re cognizances in 5,0001, and to find two sureties in the wm of 1,0001. each. T. he defendants were then removed from the bar, and the trii.,%l of the other_indictments will stand over until the next session. Shortly afterwards, Roe, the officer, accompanied by a metropolitan police constable entered the Court, and it was intimated to the Recorder that the party who had pleaded and who had traversed in the name of Joseph Parker, was the wrong person, and that it was not against him that the indictment had been found. The real party, another brother, was brought into Court in their custody. Mr. PAYNE said there was the most extraordinary likeness between the two brothers, and he therefore wished that the matter should be set right by the CoUrt. 'The two brothers were placed at the bar, and there certainly was a most extraordinary likeness between them. Two or three witnesses were examined, how ever. who identified the one that had just been brought into Court as the person against whom the bill of indict ment had been found. Mr. BALLANTINE said, that as it was admitted that the wrung man had been ordered to find bail, he should move that he be discharged from custody, as there was no charge against him. _ _ The iIiECORDER said he did not see how he could do this. The party had chosen to plead to an indictment in the name of Joseph Parker, and he had traversed the indictment, and the Court cught not to be called upon to prove the question of his identity. He had brought the inconvenience entirely upon himself, and had involved the Court in its present difficulty, and he must take the consequences. Mr. BALLANTINE said he did not think, if the real circumstances of the case were made known, that the Court would entertain this opinion. After a lengthened discussion had taken place, the Court ultimately directed that the brother who had pleaded should be discharged upon his entering into his own recognizance in LOON., to appear to answer any charge that might be preferred against him at the next Sessions ; and the officer was ordered to take the other man before Mr. Justice Wightman, under whose warrant he had been apprehended, in order that the Learned Judge might deal with the case as he should think fit. IVEIV COURT. Thomas Stevenson, aged 20, was indicted for feloniously stealing 231bs. weight of butter, the prorerty of Williao Wilcox Martin, of Thames-street. The prisoner was passing along the street, and delibe rately walked up to the door of the prosecutor, where the butter was standing, and took it away. The Jury found the prisoner guilty, and he was sen tenced to six months' imprisonment and hard labour. George Collins, aged 19, was convicted of feloniously stealing from the person of Thomas Fuller Walker, a purse containing eight sovereigns. The prosecutor was passing along Fleet-street, and felt something pull at his coat pocket, in which was his purse, and on turning round, observed the prisoner run ning away. lie followed him into a glass-house, where he gave him into custody, and the purse was - found near the spot. _ _ The. prisoner was sentenced to three months' imprison ment and hard labour, in consequence of its being his first offence. Mary Jock, 19, and George Barker, were indicted for feloniously stealing one purse containing 12s. 6d. from the person of Catharine Filcher, at Horne Fair, Charlton. Mr. Payne defended the prisoners. The parties were witnessing the exhibition at the fair, and the prosecutrix felt a pull at her pocket, and saw the female take up her dress. On turning round she saw the man hand a purse to a person not in custody. The parties at the bar were in company with the other person, and the prosecutrix gave them into custody. The purse was not found upon either of them. Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury for the prisoner, and The COMMON SERGEANT having up, The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty against both prisoners. The female was sentencedto six months' im prisonment and hard labour, and the male prisoner to ten years' transportation, in consequ ence o f a prev i ous conviction. BRENTFORD PETTY SESSIONS. Yesterday Thomas Bulpit, a man of remarkably un prepossessing appearance, who, since the 28th of August last, has been several times remanded on a charge of cutting and wounding with intent to kill Mr. James Peto, about twenty-three years of age, the son of an opulent farmer at Sutton, in the parish of Heston, near Hounslow, was brought up fur final examination on the charge. From the minutes of the previous proceedings, it ap peared that on the 18th of September, a medical certi ficate being laid before the Bench to the effect that Mr. Peto was apparently in a dying state, Mr. Baillie, the Chairman of the Bench, proceeded to that gentleman's house, and took the following deposition : " The said James Peto on his oath saith as follows: On the last Friday in August I was out in the fields. The prisoner, Thomas Bulpit, had done his work con trary to my wish. I told him he must alter the sheaves before I paid him. He told me if anything wanted doing I might do it myself, for he would not. I told him I should not think of paying him until he had al tered the sheaves. I then left him. In the evening, when I had returned home from the farm, not having seen the work, the prisoner came to me again, and I told him I should not pay him until I had seen the sheaves altered. He told me he would not leave without being paid first. I then closed the door, and he rapped at it violently, upon which I went out the second time and told the prisoner if he came down in the morning I would pay him if he had done his work pro perly. I then reasoned with his mate, who said lie was satisfied, and was about leaving the court, when the prisoner said, why should you be afraid of such a b—y fool as that ?' I followed him to the gate, when he told me he would split my b--y skull, and swung a large hoe round over my head ; at which time I then went to him to take the hoe from him, when Mr. De Carle drew the hoe from his hand, after which time the prisoner struck me with the reaping hook he had in his left hand, and then we both fell to gether. While we were lying on the road, I told hint to get up, but he would not. On my rising, I found my leg had been cut very severely. I felt the blow before I fell, hilt I did not know of what nature it was. I then felt ' my leg very much benumbed, I Oh, it's only You you have cut my leg;' to which he replied, and I said to the prisoner, Frog ley, a surgeon at mud: The prisoner then ran away, and was taken in a chaise, by Mr. De Carle, to Mr. Frog plllllo,naerp y o . uns i los h v aN ; .e an n d o on the way, l meeting tin oinlitcoem custody. him. I told him to take the the world, that he struck me the blow with the hook doubt, the least Pliflvt before me this 18th day " JAMES PETO.

Mr. Frogley, surgeon, described the nature of the in juries suffered by Mr. Peto, which were of a very s • cri?usi and alarming character. lle could not name a when Mr. Peto might be able to attend, and he period enter tained very great doubt whether 'A. Ir. Peto s 11 SOU ever be able to attend. The BENCH said, in the absence of Mr. Peto, they did not see how they could commit the prisoner for trial, a lthough they were very reluctant to again re man d hi m: lie was then fully committed to Newgate for trial, and the witnesses bound over to prosecute. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. A well-dressed and respectable-looking man, appa rently between forty and fifty years of age, named ../amt•s Pike, was placed at the bar before Mr. Alderman Lain son, on the charge cf feloniously intermarrying with Maria Pettyfer, his first wife being still alive. Mr. Tinslay, a solicitor, who conducted the case on the part of the prosecution, produced two certificates of mariages—one with Anne King, in the month of Sep tember, 1839, and a second, stating the prisoner to have been married at Hastings, to Maria Pettyfer, in 1840. "r.Alderman LAINSON—Who gave the prisoner in charge ? Mr. Tinslay—The ir first wife. Humphrey, who appeared for the prisoner, con tended considered . • wife had no power to prosecute. He It would be quite sufficient for the ends of jus tice if the prisoner, who was a highly respectable person would promise to attend at the next invest►gation. Mr. Alderman LAINSON said at the present stage of the proceedings he should not order the detention of the prisoner. In law the first wife was not the party en titled to prosecute; and be should, therefore, discharge him on his promising to attend on this day week. The prisoner said he resided at Laurel Cottage, Grove-street, Holloway, and would be► in attendance whenever further evidence could be addece7l. BOW-STREET. Philip Downfield was placed at The bar on a charge of assaulting, on Monday evening, in Hungerford-market, a gentleman of the name of Leckie, residing at No. 1, Salisbury-street, Strand. It appeared from the evidence of Mr. Leckie, that at seven o'clock on Monday evening he went to an oyster stand kept by the prisoner in Hune• b erford-market, and on asking the priee of the oysters. he was told that some were 6d. and some Bd. a dozen. He eat sixpennyworth, as he understood, but the prisoner claimed Bd. A dis pute ensued between the parties, and a policeman having been called by the prisoner, advised him to summon the complainant, who gave his address, but withheld his name. Mr. Leckie was then retiring, when the prisoner abused him and seized upon his hat. `The prisoner in conformity NV ith the advice of the Magistrate, expressed his regret for the violence of his conduct, and was then dismissed, the disputed 2d. re maining unpaid. Henry Upton, a waiter in an eating-house in Maiden lane, was charged with an assault on J. Osmond, the keeper of a coffee-house in the Strand. It appeared from the evidence that on Monday night at about half-past twelve o'clock, the complainant heard from his door the prisoner say to another person that they would go and " give him (the complainant) a turn." He told the parties on their entering the coffee-room that it was too late for them to have any refreshment, and begged they would retire; on which he was struck by the prisoner, with whom he had previously had some misunderstanding. The parties left for a while, but returned again, and the prisoner had again recourse to violence. The Magistrate sentenced him to a fine of 305., or sixteen' days confinement in the House of Correction. Yesterday William Biggs, a clerk, and Joseph Pay toddy, a butcher, were brought before Mr. Jardine for further examination, charged with forgery, and uttering a number of forged cheques, purporting to be drawn by Mr. Robert Wynne Williams, a solicitor, residing in Paper-buildings, Temple, with intent to defraud Messrs. Snow, Paul, and Co., bankers. The prisoner Biggs being first placed at the bar, was charged with having on the 9th inst. presented a cheque for 200/. at the banking-house of Messrs. Snow and Paul, and their evidence taken at the last examination being read over, Mr. Charles Ward, clerk in the firm, stated that he re membered the prisoner presenting the cheque produced; he asked him what sort of money he wished it to be cashed in, and basing gone into a room where Sir John Paul was sitting, he related the circumstance, and on the prisoner being introduced, a constable was sent for; he was taken into custody, having first attempted to make his escape. Sir John Paul proved that when the last witness brought the cheque to him, he sent for the prisoner, and told him he should consider himself in custody for for gery, upon which he said witness dare not detain him, as he had done nothing, and when he offered to send fur Mr. Williams, the prisoner replied it was of no use as he was not in town. Witness said "you commit yourself, for the cheque appears to be accepted to-day," and he then attempted to run away, but was prevented by the clerks. On searching him, a note was found which had been obtained with a forged cheque on a former oc casion. The prisoner declined making any defence, and the witnesses being bound over, he was committed for trial, and removed from the bar. The prisoner Payboddy was then placed at the bar, charged with being concerned in uttering several c. !clues in company with the other prisoner, well knowing them to be forged. After a lengthened investigation, the prisoner was ordered to be again brought up on Saturday week. THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1841. MARLS OROUG !I- ST REE T. THE PICCADILLY SALOON.—Mr. Beale, the proprietor of the Saloon in Piccadilly, was summoned by the police for " knowingly" permitting prostitutes to congregate at his house. The case was proved by Inspector Jarvis and police Sergeant Whall. They went into the saloon at night, and saw 20 or 30 women of loose character eating and drinking in the saloon. Some were alone, and others were with male companions. Mr. Wontner, who attended for the defence, asked the police how they proved that the women they saw in the saloon were common prostitutes ? The inspector answered that he could swear to having seen many of the women soliciting gentlemen in the public streets; in fact, that they regularly walked in the Quadrant at night. The men and women in the saloon were not conducting themselves in a disorderly manner, nor was there any appearance of drunkenness. fr. Wontner said a summons had been decided before Mr. Loizz exactly similar in principle to the case before the Court. is had been held that the mere circumstance of women of the ,:;,?wn entering a house for refreshment (lid not come iLb in the, meaning of " knowingly" har bouring improper characters. The occupation of these sort of women was sufficiently baa ::5 1 admitted, but then they must sup as well as other people. resides, it had not been satisfactorily proved that the women :,! . - ere were the loose characters described. Mr. HARDwrcx said it was useless to raise a ques tion on a matter that there could be no more doubt of than that St. Paul's was St. Paul's lie wished to have the case put upon a broader basis than a mere technical objection or quibble. Mr. Wontner replied, he would then take his stand on the ground that no offence had been committed. There was a case in point, " Silverthorne v. the Worship-street Magistrates," which was tried on appeal at the Middlesex Sessions, and the Magistrates' judgment reversed. If three or four, or a dozen women of the town went into a public-house to obtain refreshment, that was not know ingly harbouring bad characters, as had been over and over again decided. Inspector Beresford said, if a publican allowed prosti tutes to congregate in his house in large numbers, he would be liable to a fine, and though the defendant was not a licensed victualler, yet his house was liable to the same rules and'regulations as public-houses. Mr. Fitzpatrick, the chief clerk, said there was no penalty on publicans for serving prostitutes ; on the con trary they had a right to serve them. It had further been held at the sessions that common prostitutes were not to be considered as " notoriously " bad characters. Mr. llAnnwicx thought that the Legislature did not intend to prohibit women of immoral character from entering houses of public resort for the purpose of ob taining refreshment. A penalty was only to be imposed in cases where disorderly conduct was allowed, and where drunkenness was permitted. The evidence of the police went to negative the inference of drunkenness or disorderly conduct, and, therefore, the summons must be dismissed. Mr. llAanvircK, addressing the Inspector, said he thought the police ought to confine themselves to cases in which they could prove drunkenness or disorderly con duct against the frequenters of the saloon. NEWS by the FALMOUTH PACKET• FALMOUTH, OCT. 23.—The Montrose, Peninsular steamer, arrived to-day—from Gibraltar, 14th ; Cadiz, 15th ; Lisbon, 18th (not communicating with Oporto); and from Vigo, 20th. The transport Sovereign, Mr. T. Pike, and Lieut. Donnetry, R.N., agent, with detach ments of the 4.2 d, 47th, 59th, and let battalion of 60th Regiment on board, had put into Gibraltar, 30 days from Malta, for ‘Voolvvieb. The Great Liverpool steamer passed through the Gut on the Bth instant ; the Carysfort, Captain A. B. Martin, C. 8., sailed thence on the 9th for England. On the 11th the Britannia passed to the Westward, off the entrance to the bay ; on the day following the line of battle ship Implacable arrived from Tunis, 17 days ; and the Lizard steamer sailed for the Eastward. Lieut. NVooley, the Admiralty agent on this voyage of the Montrose, has been appointed to the Astrea, in this harbour. The following is from Lisbon :—lt is stated that the Pope requires from the Portuguese Government that all the ejected monks be assembled in three convents, one in Lisbon, one in Coimbra, and the other in Oporto, and that previous to the confirmation of the bishops nominated by her Maje3ty. It is also asserted that the Portuguese Government was on the point of conceding the re-establishment of the religious congregations, notwithstanding that re-establishment would diminish the confidence of the purchasers of national property, the sale of the said property being considered null by his Holiness. It having been mentioned that Ministers intend raising means of paying the next dividend of the ex ternal foreign debt by bonds denominated Tabaccos, now existing in the financial agency at London, it sill be well to ascertain if the amortisation of these bonds has been determined on, and if not, whether Govern. rnent has obtained from the Cortes any portion for the interest of the same, as the estimate contains no item with such application, and consequently such bonds, until they acquire by law a stipulated interest, should be reputed as solely of the value of the paper on which they are written. The Bill, abolishing the difference in duties, passed the Senate on the 14th instant. Algarve is still infested by factious bands. That which was captured in Castello Branco was to be sup ported, whenever it should penetrate into Spain, by a Spanish one which was said to have been organised on the Gata mountains. The plan, however, must have been frustrated, as none made its cppearance in that direction. The electors of the borough of Stoke-upon- Trent have determined on giving a puhli., dinner to their Member, John Lewis Ricardo, Esq., to cele brate his triumphant return for that borough, and it is to be much regretted that the electors of this enlightened constituency did not bring forward another Liberal candidate in conjunction with Mr. Ri cardo, as from the analysis of the gross poll at the last election i t w i ll be seen that Mr. Alderman Copeland would have been in the minority with the Hun.

The public sales were large and important, but did not produce any material alteration of prices. B. P. Sugar was in great request, the colony sort fetching high prices. Mauritius and Bengal were also in good request and stiff prices paid. The Coffee Market very dull and prices scarcely maintained. In the Spice Market but little business was done, but supported their former value. A few small parcels of common Black Pepper sold for export at 3d. per lb. Saltpetre was sought after by the home trade, and a fair business was done at full prices ; fine, at 295. per cwt. _ _ TEA MARKET. There was not much inquiry for free trade descrip tions, but as no persons appeared inclined to press sales the article maintained its previous value. Company's Congou was taken in a few instances at Is. 10Id. per lb. cash, but there were more sellers than buyers at that price. TALLOW MARKET. Prices of Russia Tallow on the decline, and the mark very dull. Tallow candle, fine quality, could be bougl at 475. per cwt. on the spot. WHITECHAPEL HAY MARKET. The supply was moderate ; the demand good for the fine qualities ; the middling and inferior sorts a good trade. Clover, 3/. to 61. ; Meadow Hay, 2/. to 41. 15s ; Straw, 1/. 14s. to 11. 18s. (From the London Mercantile Journal of October 26.) St:Tenn.—The West India market has been very active during the week : large purchases have been made both by the grocers and refiners, and prices have further'ad vanced €d to is per cwt on brown and middling yellow kinds, and is to is Gil on the better qualities, of which the market is now nearly cleared. The total transactions of the week are about 3,200 hhds and tierces. The demand for West India was good to-day, and the public sales went off briskly at 6d to is advance for fine sorts ; other kinds realized fully the rates of Friday. 65 hhds 7 tierces Barbadoes fetched 62s Gd to 72s 6d for low to fine yellow. 151 hhds 18 tierces and brls St Lucia went at Gls to 72s 6d for mid to very fine yellow, and good brown at 55s to 575. The private sales were about 500 hhds and trcs. Meunmus.—The public sales comprised 5,900 bags 115 casks, the whole of which found buyers, and with good spirit, at a further advance of is in almost all cases, but chiefly on the colory sorts ; fine bright and strong yellow at 68s 6d to 69s 6d, good ditto at 66s to 675, good middling ditto at 64s to 64s 6d, middling at 595, and strong low brown at 45s 6d per cwt. EAST INDlA.—Bengal continues in good request, and is per cwt higher prices were again paid at the public sales for white qualities, while the inferior sorts went at easier rates ; the whole quantity put up was 3,177 bags, which sold with spirit as follows :—fine white 72s 6d to 74s 6d, good, ditto, 69s to 69s 6d, low to mid ditto, 62s to 68, brown 40s to 535. The market continues very dull, and the public sales which offered 4,211 bags Manilla and 1,026 mats Siam, established a fall of about Is per cwt on late transac tions ; the former sold, 'riddling and good yellow at 16s to 17s, damp yellow at 15s 6d to 16s, low dry brown at 14s, and damp ditto at 13s 6d, a few lots at 14s ; the Siam was all damp white, and sold at lis to 18s 6d for low quality. FoREIGN.—The market is dull, but at a public sale of 799 bags damaged white Pernambuco full prices were obtained. and all sold ; fine white, soft at 23s 6d to 245, good ditto at 22s Gd, and in bad condition at 18s 6d to 19s per cwt. REFINED.-There is a steady demand for grocery goods to-day, and stiffer prices were paid ; 82s 6d is the value of standard lumps. For export the inquiries are very limited, and 29s to 29s 3d is the price of crushed in bond. MOLASSES.—At public sale 210 casks Sugar and Mo lasses from Mauritius were disposed of at 21s Gd to 295. 169 casks GO brls Molasses also from Mauritius were sold at 17s to 22s 6d per cwt. COFFEE.—The market for home consumption sorts continues dull, but we have had little alteration in prices this week, owing to there being a small quantity only offering for sale. The importers of West India have evinced less desire to realise, and most of the _ _ parcels on offer have been withdrawn from the market, consequently the little business that has been (lone pri vately has supported former rates. The only parcel brought to public sale consisted of 27 casks 28 barrels Jamaica, which partly sold at .57s to 67s for good or dinary. Unclean and inferior sorts are quite neglected. The demand to-day was steady for most sorts of Coffee, and the public sale went at full rates ; 483 bags Ceylon fetched 67s to 67s Gd for good ordinary ; 1,483 bags East India 35s to 35s 6d for Padang, and 33s for butnatra ; 1,800 bags Rio from the Cape 39s to 40s 6d for good and fine ordinary. Privately more inquiry existed for Coffee of all sorts. COCOA.—The demand for Foreign is yet very limited, and 1,000 bags Guayaquil at public sale were bought in at 30s 6d for ordinary, mixed with damaged. TEA.--Privately there has not been any animation in free trade descriptions, but a fair business has been done for bona fide consumption, chiefly in the lower qualities, and steady prices have been obtained. The frequent public sales are the means of preventing large pur chases privately, and keep the market in a continued state of uncertainty ; however, all things considered, the market exhibits a more buoyant and healthy appear ance than could have been expected after the receipt of the advices representing so large a quantity of the leaf to have been shipped from China to England. The market was inactive today for free trade des criptions, but there were few parcels on offer, and no change in prices was apparent ; is 100 is the lowest point of the market for sound Congou, and even at that figure the quality is very low. Company's Congou was in limited request only, and the cash price remained at about is 10Id to is 100 RICE.—The market continues firm, and 1,407 bags 390 sacks Bengal at public sale chiefly sold at lls 6d to 12s Gd for middling to good white. SAGO.—Easier prices are accepted for this article, and there is little business doing. 693 bags Pearl at public sale sold at 12s to 13s for low brownish pinky. 197 bags Sago Flour of good colour, but musty bought in at 12s per cut, SPIRITS.—The demand for Rum continues steady, but the preference is still given to the fine and strong qualities of Jamaica, which produce former prices. No sales have been made in Demerara, and ',cowards have met with a partial demand only ; they, however, support the previous value. The business of the week consists of about 500 puns Jamaica, 26 to 30 over proof at 4s 4d to 4s 10d, 32 to 34 over at 5s to 5s 3d, 36 to 38 over 5s 6d to 5s 9d, superior marks at Cs 2d to Gs 9d ; 150 puns Leewards, proof of ordinary quality at is 10d, bright at is lld to 2s per gallon. Of East India Ruin 150 hhds Calcutta have been sold at is 6d per gallon, proof strength. Brandy is very firm in price, and the best qualities are in good demand. Geneva: supports former rates; 2s to 2s Id is the nearest value for export sorts; fine quality suitable for the home trade brings 2s 6d to 2s 8d per gallon. British Corn Spirits in de , mend at lOs 4d per gallon. At public sale were offered 250 hhds of Bengal Rum and bought in at is 7 1 h,f1 for 17 1 / 2 per cent over proof, and'at is 91d for 29 1 / 2 over proof. PIMENTO.—There is no further alteration in the value of this article, and the buyers having pretty well supplied themselves at the recent large public sales, there is little inquiry, and the business is almost confined to a trifling parcel of 48 bags by public auction, middling even at 3Acl, and stalky at 2 4 d per lb. NUTMEGS.—There is little business doing in this article privately, and only two cases sound have been sold by public auction, viz. one case fair rather small Singapore brown Nuts at 4s 6d, and one case inferior ditto at 3s 9d per lb. PEPPER.—There are still only partial inquiries after Sumatra, but the holders remain firm, and few parcels are on offer-3d continues to be paid for com mon shipping quality ; 357 bags ordinary at public sale sold at 3d per lb. :Malabar is dull of sale, but not lower ; of 1,398 bags offered at public sale, a few lots only were sold at 30 to 3}, the remainder was bought in at the latter price. White goes off steadily at pre vious rates-45 bags good ordinary brownish much mixed were sold in public sale at 5d to fid, one lot at 6i per lb. CINNAMON--The quarterly public sales of this article took place yesterday, they went off with extreme heavi ness, and buyers could with difficulty be found even at reduced prices. As contrasted with the last sales, these prices are par to 3d lower for Ist sort, 2d to 4d per lb lower for second and third sort, and about 3d to 6d per lb. lower for broken and pieces. CASSIA LIGNEA.—FuII prices continue to be paid for this article, and the demand is good ; 200 chests offered by public auction found buyers, good thin quill at 100 s, fair middling at 93s 6d, and coarse at 86s 6d per c Nt. GINGER.—There is still very little inquiry for East India, and prices are yet much depressed ; 601 bags Malabar were offend at public sale, vt hen good clean scraped sold at 22s 6d to 255, wormy ditto at 18s, mid mid good mid small of the usual import at 11s 6d to 14s, AIORNING SUN I - ....-,...........-;;.. - - Aalioniw— _ ,_,, and inferior rather wormy at 8s to 103; two single 15 : 1 5 t. lots of fine like West India sold at 41s and 45s per, c . e TALLOW.—The recent failures in this tra,de 800. created very great distrust, and left the inarke.tiei? 0 : 1 dull a state as can be imagined ; business in the su _ c most cautious manner, and the buyers take 1.)
