He said it was known for a long period- that charcoal was a powerful deodoriser; but much credit was due to Mr. Rogers for bringing the fact in a practical way before the public. As an agricultural chemist, he was very 'much interested in the subject, and, in the present case, he thought the result, upon the whole, was highly satisfactory. If the pecuniary calculations were such as would enable the process to he carried on with advantage, the peat charcoal of the bogs of Ireland was likely to produce very valuable and important benefits in the heart of the metropolis. Mr. SHAW having been loudly called upon by the meeting, said he would not presume to offer any opinion after the very able and satisfactory ones the meeting hail !,earl. He was gratified to find that his challenge had been productive of such satisfactory results. lie only trusted that Mr. Rogers's calcula tions tight be borne out practically, and then indeed they wow be enabled to say that they had achieved a great victory. Mr. Rotates then presented himself, and was loudly cheered, observing that the granulated char coal could be supplied in London at 2/. 103. per ton, and it was hoped that it might be obtained at a still lower price. It was important to know, that if the wo r s t cesspool in Londo n was only covered to the depth of two or three inches, it would entirely destroy the effluvia, and save the expense, and avoid th e se rious evil of disturbing and removing it in times like the present, when disease was so prevalent. H e would observe, that so long as the present system was continued of sending the - excretory matter into the sewers, and diffusing its deleterious vapours all over the town, London would never be free from disease. Having answered some questions relative to the fertilising properties of the animalised char ebal, and also relative to its probable cost, Mr. lingers concluded by thanking the meeting for the attention it had given to the subject. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—ln your paper of yesterday was published a report of an application to the Magistrate at Wands worth for a summons, for a trespass in . pursuit of game , against Mr. H.

I beg to acquaint you that the application was made, not against myself, but against my son, who was on a piece of ground which he supposed to be the common, and who had no idea that he was commit ting a trespass.

The Riforma of Lucca has the following from Rome, 21st ult. :—" The attitude of the French military authority is barely expectant. It awaits orders from Paris, but disapproves de facto the measures ordered by the Papal Government, and whilst the cardinals dare not walk the streets of Rome for fear of encountering the popular fury, the victims marked out by their inquisitorial decrees circulate freely. The pontifical - police refuses tickets of residence ; the French police on the contrary gives them freely to the deputies and other compromised persons."

Charles Thomas, alias Hogg, but who also has gone by the name of Brandon, was brought up for final examination, charged with obtaining between 501. and 601. worth of goods under false pretences. The prisoner was remanded until Friday for the depositions, which are of great length to be made out. MOST HORRIBLE MURDER. (From the Leinster Express.) TOLERTON, SATURDAY EVENING.—I have just attended an inquest in a case of murder compared to which in atrocity that of the Mappings sinks into the shade. It is not usual to have to record such darkly demoniac traits in the Irish character as that un folded in this inquest ; especially among the female portion of our peasant class whose demeanour fur modesty and womanly reserve has elicited warm eulogium from writers of every class and every country. The murdered in the present instance was husband, the murderess wife. She has not only been pronounced guilty by a Coroner's jury, but has fully confessed her participation in the terrible tragedy. In order to give the foul transaction in the smallest space, I condense the evidence. Catherine Thompson, 'an interesting peasant girl, was wedded some time ago to a person in her own class of life named Patrick Moore. The marriage was not a happy one; the wife's prettiness had won her many admirers ; and the result was that a casual separation took place; the husband went to live with a relative of his named Brennan, while the wife re mained with her mother at Tulle, iu the Ballick moyler district. Moore left for Anierica, but on reaching Liverpool, he could not divest himself suffi ciently of his feelings for home to prosecute his voyage ; so he returned. On Sunday, the 2d of September, Catherine Moore sent a' young woman named Julia King over to Brennan's to her husband with a message, the substance of which was that she wished to see him on that evening. Ile came punc tual to the assignation. Between ten and eleven o'clock on that night he was seen by two men leaning against a ditch at the back of his mother-in law's house, in company with his wife. After this night he was not seen or heard of in the neighbour hood ; he did not return to Brennan's ; but a rumour was set afloat that he had left for America ; and the following Sunday Mrs. Moore left Tulle for the ostensible purpose of joining him in Liverpool, in order that they might proceed together to New York. After she left, vague reports were circulated through the village, and people surmised strange things, and asked why the wife did not accompany her husband. These indications of the feeling of the people of the neighbourhood having reached H. B. Warburton Esq., the Sub-Inspector, at Ballickmoyler, that gentleman immediately made particular inquiry into the matter, and had the several coal-pits in the district dragged but without any successful result. While he was thus engaged a letter reached from a brother of Mrs. Moore's, who resided at Dundalk. It pur ported that the writer had seen his sister and her husband off from Dublin on their way to America ; that they were in good health, and seemed perfectly reconciled to each other. This removed any lingering suspicion which remained on the mind of the intelli gent sub-inspector. Thus matters remained until word was brought him, on Wednesday evening, that the body of a man or something like it was seen in a hole in the centre of the lonely bog of Rossmore, and that the dogs had been devouring portions of it. lie forthwith proceeded to the place pointed out, on Wednesday night, and in the middle of the lonely and wild bog of Rossmore, with the tempest howling fearfully around him, he perceived, by the fitful glimpses of the moon, a mangled arm protruding from the depths of the bog hole, as if outstretched to heaven imploring vengeance. A stick being procured, the body was stirred, when a most revolting spectacle presented itself. A human head started out of the water; the nose and one of the cheeks had been cut off, the eyes were gone, and the face otherwise fear fully mutilated. On examination the limbs were found to be very much mangled, and the body in a state of putrescence and decomposition. To remove these hideous remains of mortality was a matter impracticable at that hour of the night, with the assistance Mr. Warburton had ; so he left his companion to keep watch while he drove off to Tulle, which was seven miles distant, it having struck him that the mutilated body in the bog must have been that of the missing Patrick Moore. When he reached Moore's mother in-law's house, he made fresh inquiry as to where Mrs. Moore and her husband were ' • the confusion and preva r i ca ti on th at ensue d confirmed him in his idea of there being foul play. He then secured the attendance of a person who knew Patrick Moore, and could identify the body if it was his. On return ing to Rossmore bog with this man and a reinforce ment of police, they raised the body out of the hole, while doing so it- fell into piecemeal, and the loath some members had to be placed in bags. The remains were immediately identified. On being removed towards Tulle, it was met by a procession of colliers, who placed the fragments of the body in a coffin, and bore it onward with m a rk s o f d ee p sorrow for their murdered comrade. I omitted to mention that in the morning the Sub inspector had placed the mother-in law, brother- in taw, and sister-in-law of the deceased man under arrest. A jury having been collected, the body was viewed by them, and after a minute examination by Dr. Samuel Edge, it was consigned - to - mother earth. The assistance of the coroner, Thomas Budds, Esq , could not be procured until to day (Saturday), his duties is Mountmelick and elsewhere having pre cluded his attendance at Tolerton sooner. The jury having been sworn held the inquest at Grave's public house. Several witnesses were examined, and from them were elicited the facts just stated. The most remarkable part of this dark tragedy remains to be told. Never were the mysterious ways of Providence made more manifest in bringing retribution home to the heartless murderer than in this case. On the morning of the inquest who should return home from Liverpool but Catherine Moore ; she had come home with a pitiful tale of how her unnatural and brutal husband had deserted her on the Quay of Liverpool, leaving her a lonely and unfortunate woman to beg her way home. Her astonishment—her horror on hearing of the discovery of the mutilated remains of her husband, operated so strongly on her feelings, that she confessed her guilt, and all the appalling circumstances connected with it. It seems Moore's brains were beaten out on the night he was last seen with his wife, and that on the next day the wretched woman and her mother dislocated the limbs ' so that they fitted on an ass's c a r ; b e i ng concealed by straw, they then proceeded to Rossmore bog, which was seven miles distant ; and in the loneliest part of that lonely place they flung their gore-clotted burden into an unclean hole. The jay, after some brief deliberation, found a verdict of `wilful murder against Catherine Moore and Bridget Thompson, mother and daughter. Mr. Budds drew, p a committal for them accord ingly; and they are to be transmitted to the county gaol at Maryborough, there to await for trial until next Spring Assizes. The Frineipal evidence against these wretched women will be supplied by two per 4ons connected with them by -the closest ties of con -sanguinity. In closing this report, so illustrative of how far truli may be stranger even than fiction, it is but justice towards the sub-inspector, Mr. Warburton, to remark that his exertions in pursuing this horrible tragedy through all its dark details deserve the highest com mendation. On expressing our astonishment at the coincidence of the woman, after an absence of nearly four weeks, returning to the very spot where twelve men were holding an inquest on the putrid remains of the man whom she had murdered, we were in formed that Mr. Warburton, act being able to dis charge from his 'mind the impression of Moore's murder, wrote to the man with whom he had stopped during the previous trip to Liverpool, and who had been a friend of his, to ask if he and his wife arrived safe, and inquiring if he was aware of their getting off to America, as the neighbours were anxious to hear of their welfare. Mrs. Moore happened to be at the time an inmate of this very lodging-house at Liverpool. The man read the letter for her. She expressed her uneasiness, and said she should return home, as something must have happened to poor Pat. She accordingly left Liverpool for Tolerton, and reached at the very crisis when her presence was necessary for the fulfilment of, the ends of justice. MADAME DULCIEN'S PIANOFORTE MATINEE, AT BRIDPORT.—This accomplished and distinguished pianiste visited Bridport on Monday last, and gave a musical matinee, at the Town-hall, to a select and intel ligent audience. It was a rich treat to the person of taste, to the musical amateur, to every admirer of superior talent. The precision, the power, the exquisite finish of Madame Dulcken's playing . commanded but one feeling of admiration. The Grand Fantasia, by Schulhoff, she played with surprising ease and energy. The fantasia from Lucia, by Liszt, charmed the audience. The " March of the Croates " by Blumenthal!, was exquisitely performed. "La Cracovienne," new fan tasia, by Wallace, was executed by Madame Dulcken with fiuished beauty and power. The genius of a first rate artist was observable in all her performances. Hausmann's playing on the violoncello was very supe rior. A new fantasia by him was exquisitely given. De Kontski's performance on the violin was surprising. His "La cascade capriccio" and " Le-Pizzi-arco capriccio," with a new, effect for the violin, were most powerful in their ern'ct, and his playing on nne string as he did astonished the assembly. He is the only pupil of Paganini,;and has much of the air and enthusiasm of his great master. Herr Schonoff, and MAemoiselle Sophie Schloss, first soprano of the grand festivals in Germany, sung several pieces with great taste and beauty. The entire performance gavo peculiar satisfac tion, and Madame Dulcken, by her biand and winning manner, excited the interest of all. Mr. Baillie Cochrane seems likely to become as distinguished a member of the literary world as be already is of the senate. His new work, .‘ Ernest Vane," appears to have been put forth as a picture of existing society, in which, according to report, many portraits from living originals, have been introduced, with a degree of power and truthfulness that cannot fail of making a due impression on the reader. Particular re ference has been made to the characters of Lord Elvers fort, the diplomatist—Luttrel, the man of tashior Leslie, the millionaire.—Michel, the Jew—Percy, the wit—and at leant a dozen other, as likely t) be easily identified, RAILWAY SHARE MARKETS.

WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 3, 1819. BOW-STREET. A rather elderly woman, named Jane Sinclair, who stated that she was a widow from Glasgow, was charged with having, in conspiracy with a man unknown, defrauded a number of pawnbrokers by false pretences. The prisoner, having become possessed of a supply of gilt rings, very massive in appearance, had been in the habit of pledging them at different pawnbrokers, and obtaining sums varying from 15s. and upwards upon them. A second visit with one of them to Mr. J. Clark, a pawnbroker in Long-acre, caused her to be suspected, and the assistant detained her until it had been properly tested by an assayist, and after wards by himself in his presence. She demanded that the ring should be returned to her, and it was given hack, with an intimation that if she offered it for pledge again as gold it would be an unlawful act, for which she would be liable to prosecution. Another of Mr. Clark's assistants followed her from the shop to watch her proceedings, and he saw her join a man in St. Martin's-lane, and then proceed to another pawnbroker's, where she offered the same ring, the man remaining outside. By the interference of the assistant, who gave private warning to the shopkeeper, the ring was again returned to the woman, with an assurance that it was base metal • but the prisoner notwithstanding went directly to a third pawnbroker's, and repeated the attempt, and was ultimately given into custody. Evidence was given of her having pledged similar rings at nearly every pawnbroker's in the district. The prisoner said, in her defence, that she be lieved the rings to be genuine, having been told so by her late husband, who was mate of a vessel which sailed from Liverpool, and who died two years ago. _ A woman, with whom the prisoner lodged in Spitalfields, stated that a man, whom she did not know, occasionally called upon the prisoner and called her " Jane." She had often told witness that she was in the habit of selling things for the man, being able to get a better price for them. Mr. HENRY committed her for trial. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. John William Molloy, an elderly person, apparently very deaf, who at one period moved in very respect able society, and - who reports himself to be a close connexion of a distinguished Irish family, was brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with having enjoyed himself luxuriously at the Cafi de Paris, Haymarket, without having any means or intention of paying his bill. The prisoner for a length of time has been living on coffee-houses and hotel proprietors, and, though he has frequently been given into custody on the discovery of his true character, yet he has hitherto contrived to evade punishment by making his frauds mere cases of debt. In this instance it ap peared that the prisoner had gone a step too far, and that now there is a possibility of hotel and coffee house keepers being relieved, for some time at least, from the impartial favours of such a customer. From the evidence of Henry Manning, waiter at the Cafe de Paris, it was proved that, just between the lights, while it was raining, the prisoner rushed into the coffee-room and said, he really was so fatigued and the weather was so bad, that instead of going home to his residence at Barnes he would take a dinner and a bed at the hotel. The waiter, who appeared to be a very sharp kind of personage, was thrown off his guard by his sudden address, and as the darkness favoured the prisoner on an examination of his shabby genteel externals, he told the prisoner he could have dinner, but it was the rule of the house not to let beds to visitors unprovided with luggage. The prisoner said, he would not break through the rules ; he would rend for his luggage the next morning early, as it was too late to ask the house porter to go as far as Barnes that night. The pri soner then ordered an excellent dinnbr, with ale, particularly cautioning the waiter " to draw it mild," some of the best pale sherry, and a plate of nuts, which he got the attentive waiter to crack for him, as he had recently hurt his shoulder. The next morn ing the prisoner called for a sheet of paper and wrote the following note :-- "Dear Mrs. Harris,—Let harry put himself into a Richmond omnibus with my large portmanteau and tra velling-bag. Don't let him be later than twelve o'clock, as I will give him an early dinner and send him home safe. My arm is still very bad, and I shall follow your - recommendation, end g et I am in comfortable quarters at the Hotel de Paris, Haymarket. "Yours ever,T. M." The letter was directed to " Mrs. Harris, Barnes, Surrey;" but the waiter, not liking the aspect of affairs, presented his bill, which amounted to If3s. 6d. The prisoner candidly owned he had no ready money, hut would draw a small cheque on his bankers, Messrs. Attwood and Co., and this the waiter could get cashed the next morning. The prisoner accord ingly drew a cheque, in his own name on Messrs. Attwood and Co., and handed it over to the waiter. The prisoner then ordered dinner, and on the strength of the cheque the waiter supplied the viands. The next morning the cheque was presented at the bankers', and from information which was obtained the prisoner was given into custody on the return of the porter who presented the cheque. Mr. BINGHAM asked the waiter if he was induced to give the prisoner additional credit after having received the cheque ? The waiter said lie let the prisoner have a second dinner and a second night's lodging on the faith of the cheque being a genuine document. Mr. BlNGnam said the first dinner and bed must be treated as a debt, but the last dinner and bed had been obtained by fraudulent means, and he should commit the prisoner for trial on that account. The prisoner was then fully committed. WORSHIP -STREET. __ William Morris, alias Haller,andWlliam Lambert, two powerful fellows of notorious character, were charged with the following daring robbery : It appeared ;from ,the evidence of a Custom-house officer named George, that whilst passing the corner of Wentworth-street, Whitechapel, at three o'clock on the afternoon of the 6th of August, he observed the prisoners loitering there in the company of three other men, and the moment he passed them he felt a jerk at his coat-pocket. He instantly turned round and seized hokl of the man nearest him, when a simulta neous rush was made upon him by the others, one of whom struck him such a violent blow underneath the ear that he dropped to the ground sense less. A considerable time elapsed before he was restored to consciousness, when he found himself under the care of a policeman, who had witnessed the out rage,'but reached the spot too late to capture either of his assailants, who had in the interval got clear off with his pocketbook, containing some private docu merits. He sustained such serious injuries from the savage violence to which he had been subjected that he had been confined to his bed for a considerable period, and had not yet wholly recovered from its effects. He had since been repeatedly on the watch for his assailants, but had been unsuccessful in tracing either of them until the preceding evening, when he recognised the two prisoners, who were closely folk lowing a lady and gentleman in Commercial street, with the evident intention of robbing them. He im mediately obtained the assistance of a policeman, and having followed them some distance, to observe their operations, at length saw the prisoner Morris with the skirt of the gentleman's coat in his hand, endea vouring to pick his pocket, covered by the other pri soner, but before they bad time to complete the offence they were both pounced upon and secured. Police-constable H 70 corroborated the latter part of the prosecutor's statement, and intimated that both prisoners were members of a desperate gang of thieves who were the terror of Whitechapel, and that Morris had been several times in custody and repeatedly con victed of similar offences. The prisoners, in general terms, denied all the facts alleged against them, but were committed for the formal completion of the evidence. LAMBETH. Stephen Alfred Jourdan, alias Donnland, who has been in custody for nearly a fortnight on a charge of attempting to assassinate a young woman, named Sarah Frances Ewins, in Dulwich-wood, was again placed in the bar before Mr. Elliott. Mr. Games attended for the prisoner. Sergeant Pritchett handed in a certificate of the present state orthe unfortunate sufferer, of which the following is a copy : "I hereby certify that Sarah Frances Ewins is progressing very favourably, but is likely to remain in the hospital some time longer. " CHARLES SANDERS, " Assistant to Mr. B. B. Cooper. " Guy's hospital, Oct. 2." Mr. ELLIOTT—Has the surgeon pronounced the young woman out of danger? Pritchett—No, sir, he has not. Mr. ELLIOTT—Has he stated when she will be able to attend to give evidence ? Pritchett—No, sir. Iler wounds are not as yet healed, but I should think she will be able to attend in the course of next week. The prisoner, who, as on the former occasion, when placed in the dock, betrayed the most perfect in difference, was again remanded.

Bonded Crushed Sugar is dull of sale at former rates.

Of 556 bags Grenada offered at public sale a small part only sold at 36s to 435, and 70 pkgs Trinidad at 37s to 40e for low to mids dling grey : the supply for the most part again consisted of the lower sorts. For Foreign a desire is evinced to sell at 25i to 275. TEa.—Since last Tuesday none has been submitted to auction, but by private treaty the market is well sup plied with green; there is no increase in the amount of black on offer. There are still many purchasers of ordinary and good Congou at 91 to 101 per lb, and there are not fre sellers, but the better sorts continue to be purchased with caution, and can easily be obtained upon former terms of lld ta is 3d, fine blackish leaf and Pekoe flavour is 4d to is 101.

SPIRITB.-Jamaica RUM is offered at former low rates, yet the purchases made have been small for all purposes and are confined to 150 puns at 2s 6d to 3s 31 for 33 to 36 per cent over proof, and small parcels of superior quality at from 3s 6d to 35 10d ; D, morara is not higher, yet there are few buyers, and only 150 puns have been sold at 2s 2d to 2s 3d for 33 to 36 over, with small parcels at Is 101 to 2s for 28 to 30 per cent. For Leeward Island former rates are asked. The market is in a quiet state; the sales do not exceed 150 hhds at Is 4d to Is sd.

Cognac, best brands of the vintsge of 1848 4s 8d to 4s Iod, 1847 ditto 5s to 5s 2d, 1846 ditto 5s 10d to 6s, 1845 ditto 6s 2d to 6s 4d, inferior sorts 3s to 4s 6d, and Bordeaux 2s 6d to 2s 9d.

FRUIT.—Of new Valencia Raisins arrivals have been upon a large scale during the last few days, and the price has declined 4s per cwt., but et 42s the demand is good. There are supplies of New Currants, and the price opened at 425, which is lower than was expected, and 2s to 3s per cwt under last season. INDIGO.—The demand for Spanish has much improved, and at the public sales held yesterday, of 65 srns, prices advanced Id to 2d per lb for the lower sorts, whilst the better kinds realised full terms. The whole offered found buyers at from is 9.1 to 3s 9d for Guatemala, and at 3a 10d to 4s 10d per lb for better sort. In East India a fair business has been concluded upon the terms of the last qu aterly auctions. The sales will commence on Tuesday next, and consist of 19,771 chests.

TALLow.—Prices are further depressed for Russian on the spot, and dealers continue to make purchases with reluctance. There are sellers of fine P.Y.C. at 36s 61 to 36s 9d, and these rates, are 8s to lOs per cwt lower than last year at this time. Only small sales have been made tor delivery in the last three months of the year, although sellers are willing to accept the low terms of 36s to 36s 3d. Home melted is offered at 36s to 37s nett cash, still only a moderate trade has been concluded. A further decline occurred in prices at the public sales; 830 pkgs South American were only in part sold at 32s 3d to 36s for low to fine; 110 casks Sydney, 34s to 365; 70 casks East India 30s 6d to 435, and 14 pkgs of Cape 36s 6d per cwt.

At auction 10 tuns from Bremen were taken in at 784 and low at 70/ to 741 15s. Cocoa Nut is yet dull of sale, and can be obtained at a further reduction..

Linseed Oil still finds a free sale for home trade pur poses, and the shipping demand is good. Prices are firm, and rule at 28s 6d to 28s 9d on the spot. For delivery, contracts have been concluded at 28s to 283 3d, and there is not a larger quantity on offer, notwithstanding the increase of late in produc tion. For Rape Oil the market is firm, and supply is not sufficient for dealers' wants. Sales of pale have been made at 39s 6d to 40s ; and brown at . 385 6d to 395. Olive met with a good demand; Gall ipoli at 431 to 441; other kinds at 41/ to 421 lOs ; there is also no desire en the part of holders to press sales, and deliveries are still extending.

[A rwERTisEm ENT.]—A certified Cure of Scrofula by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.---The following certificate from Mr- Alcorn, of Jerry's Plains, New South Wales, was forwarded to Professor Holloway by Pinkey, chemist, of the same place. " This is to certify that my daughter, aged seven years, was afflicted with scrofula for three years, and that, after she had teen attended by several respectable practitiosere, without success, I was induced to try Holloway's OintnieLt and Pills, which remedies in about three months completely cured her, and she is now in the best of health. This can be verified by various persons in this vicinity, where I have resided for twenty-two years. (Signed) R. Alcorn. Jan. 1, 1849."

We had for this day's market a fair supply of wheat, the greater part new, and for which about is per quarter under the rates last week had to be taken to effect sales. Not much foreign offering, especially of the better qualities, and trade very quiet, A good sale for grinding barley, nothing doing hi malting sorts, beans and peas unaltered. Oats dull sale. Indian corn, white and yellow, goes off in retail at IBs 4801bs. The linseed market fully as dear as last week, and for cakes, a good demand at full prices.

Our exports in the same time ars fair of wheat, Indian corn, and flour, but light of other articles. The demand for wheat and flour during the week has only been to a limited extent, at prices rather in favour of buyers. New Irish wheat declined fully 2d per 701 b. Indian corn met a slow sale , and in the few transactions reported a r e d uct i on of fully 64 per 2801 b. was submitted to on yellow. White scarce, and fully as dear. Oats and oatmeal, with a fair inquiry, supported late rates. In barley, beans, and pens, but little hais been passing, and we note no alteration in prices. At this day's market there was a thin attendance of the trade. Old wheat was in slow request, at a reduction of Id per 70th. New Irish was exceedingly difficult to quit, and must be quoted 3d to 4d per 701 b lower, and several parcels remained unsold at the close. Irish sack flour, with a fair retail demand, receded is per 2801 b., but approved brands of American supported previous rates. Indian corn was freely effered at a decline of 6d per 480 Ib, without leading to much business. Oats barely sup ported late rates, and oatmeal must be quoted 6d to Is per 240 lb lower, with a fair demand for each. Barley, beans, and peas met with but little attention, and previ ous rates remain unchanged. New Irish wheat sold at very irregular prices, varying from 4s 9d up to 5a 6d per 70 lb, accordieg to quality; oats, 2s 3d to 2s 6d per 45 ib; and oatmeal, 22s to 22s 64 per 240 lb. PRICES OF WOOL AND OIL AT LavErteoors—Wool--. Throughout last month the wool market has remained dull, and although the quantity here is but trifling, and few•descriptions to make choice of, still there is not that inquiry which might have been anticipated, considering the brisk demand there is for manufactured goods, and the general activity prevailing in the consuming dis tricts ; nevertheless we see no cause for a reduction in low wools, The sales by private treaty are confined to f e w parcels of East India, Buenos Ayres, Peruvian, Russian (to arrive) &c. Th e p r i ces obtained for East India are rather batsr than those realized at the public sales held here on the 29.11 and 30th August last. Ih Oporto and other sorts there is little doing. Bueno's Ayres is offering freely at rather lower rates ; the stock is large, and the difficulty there is in getting it picked causes it to move off slowly. Scotch— Cheviot is in fair demand, but holders are seeking too high prices; cross and white Highland not much %ought after; laid Highland has been sold 3d per Nibs higher than our quotations; however there is a good supply to be had at 73 6d to Bs, and not many transac tions. English and Irish—Fleeces continue saleable sit full prices; there is also a good demand for all kinds of i•kini the stock here is much reduced. A aeries of public sales commenced in London on the 13th ult., and are still progressing; the attendance is small, and the competition languid; coarse wools sold at about current value, to recent transactions by private treaty, but fine kinds are fully lid per lb. lower, and a great deal is withdrawn. The London market is completely glutted with Australian, while ours is bare; the large quantity brsught forward there a t one ti me has the cfleet of de pressing the mat ket. Oil—Sales have been large, prices are higher, and es it is calculated that there is a great deficiency in one description this year, manufacturers will have to consume olive, consequently we look for a still further advance. Many are refusing to sell at the present value.—(From Joseph Robinson and Co.'s eirculnr.) LEEDS; TUESDAY, CCT. 2.—We were well supplied with wheat to-day from the farmers, in addition to which many captains have brought samples from vessels down the river. The trade in wheat has ruled exceed ingly dull, awl new wheats are 3s per quarter, and old is to 23 p.r quarter I,vrer than this day week. Vtry little new barley is offering. In spring corn we note no alteration. CORK, OCT. 1. - Flour--First 13s 6d to 14s; extra 15s Od; seconds, 12s Od to 13s ; households lOs to 11s; thirds, 6s to 8a per cw t.

A LANDLORD SOWING ON A SUNDAY—REAPING ON A SUNDAY--AND CARRYING OFF Ms CR ,, I'S ON SUNDAY.—S,ruggling farmers have been denounced in every form of anuae for carrying off or attempting to carry off their crops on Sundays to save them from tho landlord and to save themselves and families from ruin; but we learn by a letter before us written by a collector of pour -rates, that a landed proprietor in the neighbour hood of Listowal, to place his crops out of the reach of the rate collector, actually had his barley sown on Sun day, reaped on Sunday, and removed off his estate on Sunday! When a landlord thus leads the way in doing on Sunday what belongs to Monday, and for the object so much decried in tenants, who can venture with any show of reason or justice to blame the latter for imitat ing so faithfully their " very noble and approved good masters"?—Kerry Krzminer.
