caused by our restrictive policy; as if that • restrictive policy were only of the date of yesterday, instead of being of the age of at least a century and a half—in truth of a much greateFage. Why, if the markets of the world are cl6secl—which they are not—they must have been open before they were closed, and the restric tive system it must have been that opened-them. If commerce is now embarrassed, commerce must have existed prosperously before it could suffer embarrassment; and if the industry of labourers is mow in a degree paralysed, it must have been at one time or other healthy and active; and com merce and industry must have enjoyed this prosperity and healthy activity under the restric tive system, unless we arc to look back upon ~hem over the wide gulph of greatly more an 150 years. When the great League talks :an axe laid to the root of national prosperity, .t lies if it means that the axe has been lately aid : and, we say it .with submission; it talks nonsense if it refers to the axe that has been resting harmless for centuries. We are not now -going to reason with such people, but we would remind them of a Somewhat uncouth word which their practice has naturalised in our vo cabulary. They have before now heard of gluts. " a glut" is just the thing to close mar -1W:, while it operates, to embarrass commerce and to paralyse industry; and when we find the exports of a country multiplied twofold, while its population has increased less than one third, and all this accompanied by that. plethora of money of which our Co :temporary the Morning Chronicle com pla:ns,. we must think that the disease is rather the effect of a glut than of any cause, that has been steeping innocuous for centuries. If the great Leaguers tell us that the increase of popu latio,t makes the increase of produce necessary, we rt mind them that the increase of produce has is of only greatly outrun the increase of popu latitn, at home, hut still more outrun th increase of T ovulation abroad. If they speak of a mon IN -sacrifice as accounting for the excess of p:oduce, we point to the confessed plethora. Thrse two symptoms are decisive of the true nature • of the ailment; it is a corn plictr,ien of gluts, a money glqt at home—a glut of goods in the foreign market, all the result of the rabies canina for gain, combined with a coostipated retention of what is gained—a pro fessi alai malady, which from analogy to the "7iier'.or urn Cholera," we may call the Dyspepsia Harpaginunz, or " League evil." From the Leateee's statement it appears that two thousand lecte:es have been delivered and five million traes distributed at an expense of 100,0001. This stalcment is worthy of a short calculation. What Anti-Corn-law lecture worth ? This, to be sure, is a question of some uncertainty, for men difro• widely as to the proper price of a fancy ar ticle. Were we to pronounce upon the absolute value of the articles delivered for lectures as lite:•:.ry compositions, we should rate them very low indeed. Such could be easily had at a pound the dozen among the less fhrtu n-tte votaries of letters with which London almonds. But as most of the lecturers have, like Mr. Acland, acted as " penny-a-liners" for the p1:1):1c - press, it seems proper to allow them solu.:. , :rp_r at the rate of their former profession, them 4h it is one in which they have failed—say, then, one pound per lecture, which we honestly ai ::u to be liberal pay; but be generous and call it a-n pounds, or prodigal and go to five! Under this head of lectures, then, we have, upon the hypothesis, two thousand pounds, upon i,.odioal hypothesis, ten thousand. As to the trAct., there can be no difficulty in making_ an stimate. A tract of four octavo pages of avoriqe print, where a great many are taken, Can be sold for one farthing; ,five millions of tracts of four octavo pages would come to about Here, then, we have the terms of the gn , :tt League's account with the goad-natured p:!;)Jle who have subscribed 100,0001. Money received £loo,ooo Lectures Tracts Balance £85,000 NV;iat has become of this balance ? It is not our part to play Joseph Hume to " the great L.aguers, but certain events have occurred within the sphere of their exertions which justify a little general curiosity as to the expenditure of such a sum as 85,0001. A lavish outlay by some one after a great robbery has, before now, led to the detection of the thief, and a lavish outlay by parties of questionable character upon the very eve of an insurrection may, in like manner, co3inct to its authors. During the progress or the late -disturbance, which ha 3 resulted in thl exposure of 300 foolish persons to the p nalties of the law, as well as in much other mischief, there was frequent mention sinio.icr the insurgents of funds mysteriously pro nil and mysteriously supplied. Now these V 0,;(.../ ambigua concurring with the sudden, str.log'e, and unexplained disappearance of such a sum as eighty-five thousand pounds from the fnals of the League, surely require to be ac ted for. For ourselves, we have no doubt as to tile real destination of the greater part of this large sum, and we are, therefore, pretty confi dent that the " great Leaguers" will not give accaunt. To conclude, the League have by their own confession reaped little beyond an in surr2ction, and the imprisonment of some 003 of our li.-.llow-citizens from an outlay of 100,0001. ; and this is a poor plea for asking 50,0001. more. Al J NEY MARKET and CIT Y NE W S FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. CTeIRONICLE.—The state of the corn trade forms a 1:e. and proper companion to that of the cattle trade. B.lth markets are panic stricken, and prices greatly and unnecessarily depressed. The farmers have them sal ,-a; to blame very much for having given way to fear from the phantom herds of horned cattle from the Continent, which they supposed were on ship-board to undersell them on British ground ; but the panic in tile corn trade, and the ruinous loss that has been suLred in Mark-lane and abroad by the recent fluc tuations in the price of wheat, are all to be attributed - the deceitful influence of the new sliding scale. The new law was framed to abolish gambling and ci!lation, and to establish a steady trade and ite- of prices. What has been the test of experi ? Gambling has been as extensive, and speculation r'.ce as it was before the law of 1828 was modified. Upwards of 2,000,000 of quarters of foreign wheat were entered for home consumption, under an Bs. duty, in August last; in the weeks ending the 6th o{f August and the 13th of August last, when the average price was 645. 2d. per quarter, that is, ten NV OE'!C3 back, and now the duty is 18s. per quarter, alei the average price down to about 525. per quarter. vaunting sliding scale, which was prescribed as a speeific against the evil of its discarded predecessor, has thus been attended with a fluctuation of 10s. per quarter on the duty, and of 12s. per quarter on the aver :m price in the course of a few weeks. The trale has been sub:ected to a loss of 1,200,0001., and the British farmer has been exposed to the in:!ue:ice of a market as fictitiously depressed, as it formerly had been unduly advanced, in price ; while the consumers have not been benefited by a proportionate reduction in the price of bread. The millers and bakers may, perhaps have reaped some benefit by these changes, but all other classes ha 7 :e suffered, and most of all the English farmers — the home producers—have been losers by this extra ordinarily convulsive action in the corn trade. Had the season proved unfavourable, the dealers would have . held back their 2,500,000 quarters until the Prier' had risen to a famine rate, and until the duty hail been reduced to the lowest ratio. The game, in that epees would have been in their own hands. It is still on the cards for another day, and will be played 'bile it is op e n to be won. Inthe meantime, such is the force of panic at present in Mark-lane, owing to :he extent of the recent failures, that the best Dantzic wheat i s new offered, for ' money at 48s. pe believe, e quarter—less, w e , . 7 than its cost free on board. This, too, at the time when the English fanners are sending th e i r b est samples to mar . • ker, w i nc h, from their superior quality, support the averages; otherwise the price would be cansiderably lower. The discount houses in Lombard-street are now the actual holders of foreign conl,'in security for the money advanced on the dis lieoured paper of the corn-factors. " B etter good reen than ,bad bills," was the observation of the head of leading firm to-day ; and this is true enough ; Let ;eeter we say, for all parties, a steady trade :led a fixed duty. If the farmers are to have what t? . rined " protection," let it be fixed, and then ill;e:e will be an end to all mystification. It is ra . . 0 . 1 5, indeed, to attempt to fix the prices of coni i-eallta,s b e means of any Act of Parliament, for w,. 5,?.,3 by the present state of the corn market that a ' l "i'llnal duty o f IS s a p er q uarter does not keep t. 1e price at more than 48s. per quarter. A fixed ci - a•e- as a source of revenue, and for revenue alone , may be maint a i ne d , and such an impost would de ceive eo o • one, but all attempts to fie prices by legisla tion,. and t o g i ve a self-acting protective principle to fiscal char ges , are seleeelu nothing but gen era l pan i c and confusion.sions, and l vhig tend to gery, they say, is out of fashi on . b ut b e that as it may, Lord John Russell was right —as time will prove— in re •e••uel to the measures of the a present Cabinet. By •• their new Corn-law and Tariff, leaving the great ee - elopolies of corn and sugar still almost untouched, Pee!, as Lord John Russell observed, " has disturbed e verything and settled' nothing." These are facts— •• • truth, and nothing but the truth. They are etY , ;liZant to every practical man of business in the City-, and cannot be gainsayal• The cattle trad e i s disturbed—the corn-trade - is -disturbed—the farmers Is a equ:i are frightened out of their senses. The corn-factors are ruined, and the bill brokers are smothered with unsaleable bags of wheat, instead of flourishing on the profits of commercial paper. The sugar trade is dis turbed. The metal trade is disturbed. Our manu factures languish, and prices seem to find no bottom. No one branch of our productive industry is bene fited ; all are unsettled, and all labour under dived of further change. To crown all, money is freely offered at two per cent,, and no bills. TIMES.—The failure of Messrs. Hunter and Co ventry, corn-factors, has created some sensation in the City. The house is of high standing, and the liabilities are said to exceed 100,0001. At the same time their assets are spoken of as considerable, and some say that little more than time to realise them is required. A failure of smaller importance, that of Mr. E. It. Foster, Irish provision-merchant, has been connected with the other. The liabilities of this con cern are said to be under 20,0001. We have the authority of Messrs. Denison and Co. to state that they were not the contractors for the loan to the United States Bank referred to under this head in the Times of to-day, although it has commonly been associated with their names, but that they were merely requested, as bankers, to hold the securities for the subscribers for two years. Beyond that of the ordinary banker's commission for paying the dividends they derived no emolument from the loan, and they neither took any of the bonds them selves, nor did they receive any of the money raised. It should be mentioned that they profess themselves willing to follow any directions from the contractors. The acceptance of the conversion by the Com mittee of Portuguese bondholders has, as might have been expected, found several persons who are not at all satisfied with the proceeding. Of this the follow ing letter is an instance : " TO THE EDITOR OF TILE TIMES. " Sir,—lt would appear that in consequence of a promissory and explanatory declaration or decree, signed by the Queen of Portugal and the Minister of Finance, stating that the 6th article of the decree of November 2, 1840, was, as it purports to be, intended only as a guarantee to the British creditor, and not as a mode and means of throwing him on the Lisbon and Clorto Custom-houses for payment, the Portuguese Committee decided to propose to a public meeting the acceptance of the decree of November 2, 1840. " From this, Sir, it would seem that article 6 was the only or the most objectionable one in that dis • honest, arbitrary, and illegal measure. Is this the fact ?—No. "Article 3 cuts off 401. per cent. frorn.every 1001. 3 per cent. bond, while it leaves the 5 per cent. bond entire. Article 3 takes away 2,400,0001. capital stock of the 3 per Cents., and from the 5 per Cents. nothing. "Whence this•unfair distinction ? The 3 per Cents. came out at the high price of 721. per cent., the 5 per Cents. at a much lower figure, both positively and re latively. " I find no explanation of this anomaly in any of the reports of the meeting as given by the papers, nor any allusion to the case of the 3 per Cents.; and, therefore, take this means of requesting the Chairman and Committee, jointly and severally, to assign to their 3 per Cent. constituents, of whom I am one, the reasons of their apparently one-sided conduct, and en treat you, Sir, to have the goodness to assist me in obtaining a reply to my very reasonable inquiry. " I have the honour to be, Sir, " Your very obedient servant, " PORTUGUESE BONDHOLDER." CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before Mr. JusticefitSKlNE and Mr. Justice MAuLE.) UTTERING COUNTERFEIT COlN.—Ellen Connell alias Nyhen, aged 21, was indicted for uttering coun terfeit coin, well knowing it to be counterfeit. It appeared that she had been convicted at a former sessions of a similar offence, and had suffered twelve months' imprisonment. Mr. Bodkin conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Payne defended the prisoner. The prisoner, it appeared, had tendered a counter feit sixpence at the bar of a public-house in payment for a half pint of beer. The landlady refused to take it, and prisoner then tendered a good shilling. In change the landlady gave her a sixpence, a fourpenny piece, and a penny. The prisoner returned a four penny piece to the landlady, saying it was the one given in change, and that it was bad. The landlady was positive that the fourpenny piece she had given the prisoner was good, and her inference was that the prisoner had changed it. On her being searched the only counterfeit coin found on her was a sixpence. '_Ne Jury found her Not Guilty. CIIVAGE or RAPE.—Robert Pring Snell was in dieted for having committed a rape on Ellen Matilda Singleton. Mr. Doane conducted the case for the prosecution, and Mr. Payne defended the prisoner. From the evidence for the prosecution, it appeared that the prisoner was a married man, residing in the Cambridge-road ; that hi: wife had hired the prose cutrix, a girl 'of about 16 years of age, of rather weak intellect, as : a servant; that after the girl had been in the prisoner's service four days he had taken advantage of his wife's absence to ply the girl with beer and spirits until she was nearly intoxicated, and that then he had committed the offence with which he was charged. Tha prosecutrix was subjected to a long and ri gorous cross-examination by Mr. PAYNE, on the part of the prisoner, and her deposition before the Magis trate was put in and read, which differed in some points from the evidence she bad given in Court. Her evidence was corroborated in many points by other witnesses. Mr. PAYNE addressed the Jury for the prisoner, and contended that it would be unsafe to convict any man of such a crime on such unsatisfactory testimony. Mr. DOANE replied. Mr. Justice EasKINE summed up, and the Jury found the prisoner Guilty. Mr. Justice ERSKINE in passing sentence on the prisoner, told him that if the law had remained in its former state he would most probably have been left for execution. Fortunately for him, however, an alteration had been recently made in the law. The sentence was, that he be transported beyond the seas for the term of his natural life. _ _ ....... LORD — FRANKFORT'S CASE.—The Grand Jury have returned a true bill against Alice Lowe for robbing Lord Frankfort. NEW COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) On Thursday Louisa Grange,' aged 25, dressed in a stylish fashion, was indicted for stealing, on the 17th of August. four diamond rings, value 10e/., the property of John Metcalf; and Rossiet Lennon, aged 32, was indicted for procuring, aiding, and inciting the first-named prisoner to commit the said felony ; another count charged him with being an accessory after the fact, with harbouring, maintaining, and comforting her, concealing her, and receiving the pro perty stolen by her, well knowing it to have been stolen. The female prisoner pleaded guilty. The male (Lennon, a well-dressed young man) abided his trial. After the lapse of six hours after the pleas, Mr. DOANE stated the case for the prosecution, in course of which he read several letters found upon the prisoners. They were translated from the French into English. They formed a correspondence between the parties, and had relation to the present inquiry. The COMMON SERGEANT expressed an opinion that the contents of the letters would not sustain the indictment, so far as the first count -was concerned. Several witnesses were called, but their testimony has been already fully detailed in the police reports. The COMMON SERGEANT summed up the case, and the Jury, without much hesitation, found the prisoner Guilty upon the first and third counts of the indict nient. The Learned JUDGE said it was impossible that the prisoners could be allowed to remain ii I this country. With respect to the woman, the law le ft him no dis cretion. The judgment of the Court, therefore, was, that she he transported for ten years, and the male prisoner for seven years. The Common Sergeant was occupied the greater part of yesterday morning with trying - mint cases, of which there were no less than 15 for trial, a most unusually large number. The Learned JUDGE, on the conviction of the first prisoner, expressed his surprise at ti e number of charges of this description, and state d his deter mination to put a stop to the practice, by visiting all offending with the heaviest punish' nent the law woul'l allow. Since he had taken his seat he had been informed that the cause of so many charges of this - description was, that the "smasheiz' town season" had commenced. There was now a season for every thing, and the smashers could not be without theirs. In the summer and autumn they favoured the country with their presence to impose u pon the haymakers, hop-pickers ' and reapers, and the simple country PeePle, and they made town th eir quarters for the winter. He, (the Common Sergeant) would take care that the present town seas o s should not be either parties‘t l O en d , v f i o st r iot i i n nsgu e v eti e hl r e y acn c o a good or successful one, and :he was as good as his rnm as yr w . would prevent James Bird was convicted o f -.stealing a time-piece, a sue:lxttroe:n c dn o ee n dx vi • on he sentenced the -P°l ic3man' and sentenced to seven years' t. a nsportation. James Aitdrews, ex s, 36, a n was indicted for stealing, on th e Bth o f the t month, a purse, c ontaining geld and silver pre eo ' a en to the value of 21.:55., the property of Thomas N oel Harris, from his person. Archibald Rile, assistant to a linen-draper, living a t 269, Oxford - street, stated th at the day named in the indictment, he saw the pro: ;editor's carriage draw up to the pavement, the Pris , ter being near at the time. Afterwards he saw hira. lift the skirts of Mr. Harris's coat with his left hand,, and at the same time put his hand in. As soon as k withdrew it, witness apprised the prosecutor of wha4 he had seen, and then THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, [842. pursued the prisoner, who ran away, and was not overtaken by the witness until he reached Dean-street, where witness took him into custody and delivered him over to a policeman. • The prosecutor and several other witnesses corro borated the evidence of the last witness. Mr. EALLANTINE addressed the Jury for the pri soner, and called several witnesses, who gave him a good character. The Jury without any hesitation found the pri soner Guilty, and The COURT sentenced him to 15 years' transporta tion, observing that he had attempted to impose upon ths Court by the witnesses he had called. EXTENDED SENTENCE.—IN THE MATTER OF Ros- HET LEN NON, ALIAS THE COMPTE DE BAS.—OH Thurs day the above-named individual was convicted of in citing Louisa Grange to commit a felony, and of harbouring and maintaining her after the fact, and the Court then sentenced him to seven years' trans portation, and the female to ten years. Yesterday the male prisoner was again put to the bar ; he was, attired as on Thursday, and wore a gold ring on the outside of his white kid gloves. The COMMON SERGEANT, on the convict being placed at the bar, stated to him that he had on Thurs day passed upon him the sentence of seven years' transportion, he had, however, found by reference to the Act of Parliament that as he had been found guilty of inciting a person to steal goods in a dwelling-house of more than the value of 101., the Court was bound to award ten years' transportation, and the prisoner must therefore consider that to be his sentence. The prisoner appeared thunderstruck, as he evi dently came to the bar confident that his sentence was about to be mitigated and not increased. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The busines3 before the Court yesterday was chiefly the trying of persons accused of keeping disorderly houses in the parish of Marylebone. In one of these, which occupied more than two hours, the Learned Chairman, in his address to the Jury, said that it was not enough to prove that women of bad reputation resided in a house, or that men and women were seen going into it at late hours of the night, to constitute it a disorderly house, and as such subject to indict ment. In the present case there was no proof that the house of the defendant was a nuisance to the neighbourhood, but the evidence was in fact altogether to the contrary. It was quite possible in those cases to be overwise, and he thought that it would be as well not to interfere with those people whilst they abstained from committing any act against pub lic decency and public order. The Jury without hesitation acquitted the pri soner, who was a middle-aged man, of what is called respectable appearance, and named John Futter. Mr. ADOLPHUS then attempted to address the Jury respectinc , the hardship so respectable a man had en dured, in being prosecuted on such a charge. The CHAIRMAN—Nonsense • if I could give a Scotch verdict, I would say, " Not proven." The less we say of the case the better. The fellow is ac quitted ; but if I met him in the street, I should be very shy of him. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSZON-HOUSE. Messrs. Barrand and Welch, of Whitefriars Wharf, coal merchants, appeared upon summonses to answer the complaints of the Lightermen's Protection So ciety, whose officer charged th:.m that, being the owners of a vessel called the Hockley, No. 1,637, they carried, or caused to be carried, for hire, or other than on their own account, certain goals, con trary to the statute, they not being freemen, or ap prentices to a freeman, or to the widow of a freeman of the Watermen' i s Company, whereby they had for feited any sum not exceeding 101. Mr. Wire, who appeared for the Lightermen's Protection Society, stated that the object of the So ciety was not to go in the first instance for a large penalty, but to enforce the observance of the Act of Parliament, which had been, in a great number of cases, violated by some through carelessness, and by others through, no doubt, intention. The gentlemen summoned in the present case pleaded guilty, and, therefore, the Society would be satisfied with nominal damages and the payment of the expenses incurred. The same defendants pleaded guilty to another charge relating to another vessel, of which they are owners, called the Dawson, No. 163. In both cases nominal fines were inflicted. Messrs. Carrington and Smith, of Milbank, also pleaded guilty - to a charge under similar circum stances„ by the Lightermen's Protection Society. A nominal penalty was inflicted, and the expenses or dered to be paid. Charles alias Thomas Lee, the mock wine-merchant, of No. 14, Cooper's-row, Tower-hill, was brought before Alderman GIBBS, for another examination. Child, the constable who apprehended the prisoner, said that a great number of tradespeople were anxious to come forward and state the particulars of the man ner in which the prisoner and his partner Mr. Gould had plundered them, but in consequence of a mistake which had been made as to the day appointed for the examination, few or none were in attendance. A Solicitor stated that he appeared on behalf of a great number of tradesmen to request that the Alder man would remand the prisoner till Wednesday next, when no doubt multitudes would come forward. Many of the defrauded tradesmen were, he perfectly well knew, duped into the condition of creditors by the fellow at the bar, but he had every reason to believe that in several cases, undiSguised robbery had been committed by the wine merchant. The prisoner's Attorney here interfered, and de clared that there was no ground for remanding the prisoner, as not one of the cases complained of involved anything like felony. 'The Solicitor for the tradespeople said he had no doubt of being able to prove, early in the weak, that the wine merchant 2 office in Cooper's-row was a place in which wholesale robberies had been committed to a very great extent. The Solicitor for the prisoner—These are mere as sertions which you have no right to Make. Mr. Hobler—No right to make ! Are we to be very delicate in our language in speaking of such thieves ? Here is a fellow who has been plundering every tradesman he could meet. Even the poor car penter who set his office in order has been robbed by him ; and still we must be most cautious of what we say about him ! The Solicitor for the tradesmen—l mean to prove all I say. The prisoner and his partner took the house for the purpose of committing plunder, and they got rid of every article the moment it was sent home to them. Mr. Charles Stocken, stationer, of the Quadrant, stated that he had been defrauded by the prisoner of books to the amount of 6/. or 71. Alderman GIBBS—You had not sent them to him on credit. Mr. Stocken—No. My servant took them to Cooper's-row, and was to receive the money upon delivery, but I understand the prisoner contrived to slip them away, and neither books nor money have been seen since. Alderman Ginas—ls your servant here ? Mr. Stocken—No. He left me three or four months ago, and I do not really know where to find him. Mr. Hobler —lt would be very desirable to have him here, as such a case may answer. Mr. J. W. Little, starch-maker, of Holborn, said the prisoner called upon him and ordered halfa ton of starch, to No. 14, Cooper's-row. Witness did not execute the order, which was rather a remarkable one. The prisoner called again, and witness subsequently sent to him a hundred weight of starch. Alderman GIBBS—Did .you ask him for any refe rence i l d ie er h re ad an a G conling ii h a o d us y e e i u n Cooper's rence ? Mr. Littl e —N o . I th oug ht it was s ufficient further- r o w* dealing with hhn ? Mr. Little-41e afterwards any sent his man for more starch, and I ,sent him 56 pounds weight more. I repeatedly call e d at his . counting-house, but I never could see him. Alderman GIBBS—You have given him credit, it is evident. Mr. Little—He was to have paid one over the other. James Hutchings said he fitted up the counting house for the prisoners, but not a farthing had he re ceived for it. Alderman GIBBS regretted to say that the case of the carpenter, who had thus thrown away his labour, was merely one of debt. The Solicitor for the prisoner—There is not a sin gle case against him. These tradesmen have all given him credit. Alderman GIBBS—I consider there is quite enough to justify me in remanding the prisoner until the tradesmen have time to produce the necessary . evidence. ' The prisoner was then remanded till Wednesday. GUILDHALL. Richard White, a drayman, in the employment of Messrs. Calvert, was placed at the bar, on the charge of causing the death of a - fine chid, named Mary Morris, aged 9 years, yesterday afternoon in Far ringdon-street. It appeared from the evidence that the child on its way to school was jammed between the wheel of the dray and one of the iron street pillars, and had its head actually smashed to pieces. Sir P. LAURIE said the prisoner at the bar might be blameless, but this he must say of the body to which he belonged, that they were the most reckless in London, as the weight of their horses and strong carts made them fearless of collisions. He should order hi:n back to Newgate until the result of the Coroner's inquest should be known. A gentleman from Messrs. Calverts' brewery spoke highly of the prisoner, and offered to bail him. Sir PETER said he never would accept bail in cases where death was caused in the streets by the drivers of vehicles. He never did, nor ever would, accept bail. WORSHIP-STREET. Maria Drahe was charged with having stolen a silver watch and a watch-stan' from the house of Mrs. Myers, of Tysson-place, Kingsland-road, on the 23d of February last, and with having committed divers other robberies. The prisoner was a young As omen of respectable appearance, and was stated to be a sister of Mrs. Tib bitts, whose name has been lately before the public in connection with that of the Rev. Mr. Boddington. The prisoner had been remanded since Friday, on which occasion it came out in evidence that on the 23d of February last she had called at the house of Mrs. Myers to inquire for furnished apartments. Pre vious to leaving the house the prisoner, under the pre tence of having dropped a glove, returned alone to one of the rooms, from which she was supposed to have stolen the watch and watch-stand. The latter article had been lately found in her possession. A series of other charges against the prisoner was next entered into, and after some investigation she was committed for trial.

The Average Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, computed from the Returns made in the Week ending Oct. 25, 1842, is 345. 2id. per cwt., exclusive of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the importation thereof into Great itain. A FAIR DAY'S WAGES FOR A FAIR DAY'S WORK. Bread at 4d. for a 41b. loaf. • Ale at 4d. per quart. Wages, 9s. per week constant for labour. HOW TO BRING THIS ABOUT. Three shillings per quarter permanent dut y on corn for revenue—other food free. Reduction of duty on Malt. Tax on Property, and Currency a silver standard. TIIE EFFECT. On Land Improved agriculture and increased consumption would compensate for reduction in price. On Commerce Cheap food would restore the pre eminence of Great Britain, and keep labour in constant demand. Preserve Peace and seek no Commercial Treaties — Religion would be guarded from the agitatating empiricism of dis content. A SUBSCRIBER OF TWENTY YEARS' Oct. 26, 1842.

SIR,--I have the King of Hanover's commands, to express to you his Majesty's thanks for the book transmitted by you and containing your speech at the Conservative Festival at Maidstone. The King was greatly pleased with the eloquent and brilliant manner in which you had handled your subject, and has charged me to communicate to you his approbation, which his Majesty was only prevented by great press of business from doing himself. —I have the honour to remain, Sir, your most obedient servant, (Signed) ADOLPH KIELMANSEGGE. 44, Grosvenor-place, March 8, 1842 .

By it manu facturers are enjoine4 to use nothing in the working up of the leaf but pure water, under a heavy penalty, so that the tobacco will now have much the colour of new rope. The price, we. understand, will necessarily be raised, perhaps Gd. to Bd. a pound. The same re gulation applies to the manufacture of snuff, but the operation of the Act as to it, is suspended for a triclyernohtil,—Wpreokr Chronicle. I THE . .MARKETS,-(YESTERDAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals were small of English Grain, and large of Irish Oats. Wheat sold slowly at previous prices, and Barley maintained last quotations. The New Irish Oats were ls. per quarter lower. Flour as last reported. 1 SMITHFIELD. By letters received this morning from Hull and Southampton we understand the imports of foreign stock have been extensive in those places during the present week, they having amounted to nearly 350 head. In to-day's market the numbers of foreign beasts on offer were composed of 45 head, per the Great Liverpool steamer, from Vigo in Spain ; six oxen and seven cows from Rotterdam, and eight oxen from Hamburgh. These were decidedly the worst importations we have seen, as will be apparent when we state that the Spanish beasts did not realize more than 2s: 10d. per Slhs , and even that °miserable figure was not ob tained without great difficulty : hence the importers must have suffered severe losses. From Scotland, 35' horned and polled Scots have arrived in the Pool this week, 15 of which were brought forward this morning ; the remainder being stores intended for the marshes near the metropolis. The attendance of both London and country buyers being by no means numerous, we have to report a very heairy in quiry for beef, but the prices noted on Monday last were supported ; the primest sorts producing 4s 4d per Sibs. The supply of Sheep was, the time of year considered, tolerably fair. Prime old Downs met a steady inquiry, at full rates of currency, but as a whole the mutton . trade. was dull. From Ireland we received ten calves in very inferior condition, and which produced no more than 3s per 81bs. Other wise the Veal trade was excessively slow, at an abate ment, on previous, quotations, of quite 2d per Sibs. In Pigs, about eighty of which were from Cork, little was doing, but no depression was submitted to in their value. Per Blbs. to :sink the offal:—Common and inferior beasts, 3s to 3s 2d; second quality ditto, 3s 4d to 3s 6d ; prime large sorts, 3s 8d to 3s 10d ; prime Scots, &c., 4s to 4s 4d ; common and inferior Sheep, 3s to, 3s 4d; second quality ditto, 3s Gd to 3s 8d ; prime common woolled Sheep, 3s 8d to 3s 10d ; prime South Down ditto, 4s to 4s Gd ; large common class, 3s Gd to 3s 10d; prime small ditto, 4s to 4s 4d; large Hogs, 4s to 4s Gd; neat small Porkers, 4s 8d to 5s 10d. Sucking Calves, 18s to 295; and quarter old store Pig 3, 16s to 21s each. Beasts, 457; Cows, 116; Sheep, 5,060; Calves, 252 ; Pigs, 550. NEWGATE AND LEADENIIALL. The arrivals of country killed Meat up to these markets since Monday have been very extensive, while the general demand here is heavy, at the fol low•ing prices, Blbs., by the carcase :—lnferior Beef, 2s 10d to 3s; middling, 3s to 3s 2d; prime large, 3s 2d to 3s 4d; prime small, 3s 4d to 3s fid ; large Pork, 4s to 4s 61; inferior Mutton, 3s 4d to 3s 6d; middling, 3s 8d to 4s ; prime, 4s 2d to 4s 4d; Veal, 3s 4d to 4s 2d ; small Pork, 4s 8d to ss. BOROUGH HOP MARKET. The supply of both new and yearling hops on sale here to-day—but more particularly as ,relates to that of the former—being large, we have again to report a very heavy inquiry for all descriptions, and the quota • tions are with difficulty supported. The duty is called 160,0001.

COLONIAL MARKETS. SUGAR.—A fair extent of business has been done in British Plantation, at gradually advancing prices, being fully 6d dearer for all descriptions since la3t Friday, more particularly for the better sorts, which are very scarce. The transactions amount to 2,200 hhds., inclusive of 109 hhds. Barbadoes, which sold briskly by auction, at 60s 6d to 68s Gd for low to fine quality, being also rather higher. Molasses.—There has been a fair business done, consisting chiefly of good to fine Antigua, which have been sold at 30s to 31s, and a small parcel fair Demerara at 265, which are fully former rates. Mauritius—Has been much inquired for, particularly the better qualities, and for the small parcels which have hem disposed of privately, rather higher prices have been obtained. 952 bags brought to auction sold readily at 57s 6d to 66s for low to good bright yellow, and low to good brown at 45s 6d to 565, being an advance of fully is to is 6d on the good. Bengal—The better sorts of white have been in good demand, but from the scar city few transactions have taken place privately. The public sales have contained 3,839 bags, consisting chiefly of low and inferior quality and date kind ; the whole, however, went off with more spirit than last week, at fully previous prices ; low greyish yellow to mid white brought 55s 6d to 655, and low to fine brown 48s 6d to 54s 6d. Foreign—Nearly all descriptions have been in increased demand for export, and for the parcels sold rather higher prices have been paid, but holders being extremely firm, there is scarcely anything at present offering, consequently the transactions consist of only 700 boxes yellow Ha vannah, which have been sold at 20s for an average assortment; 170 chests brown Pernambuco at 15s to 15s 6il ; 1,500 bags low, damp and washed, brown Manilla at about 14s ; - 77 chests and 78 barrels Brazil, consisting chiefly of Bahia, sold readily at 20s to 22s 6d, for low to mid white, and low brown to good yellow at 15s 6d. to 19s, being ex treme prices. Refined—Grocery descriptions con tinue in fair demand, and rather higher prices in some instances - have been obtained. A fair business has been done in crushed at 25s 6d, being the former value. CorrEE.:—The public sales have contained 91 casks, , 149 barrels British Plantation (chiefly Jamaica), 1,392 bags Ceylon and 1,717 bags East India, which went off heavily, only part finding buyers, the former at about previous prices, but being ' chiefly in small lots, affords no criterion of the market. Mid Ceylon B.P. kind brought 94s to 97s ; low good ord to fair good ord quality were mostly taken in at 61s to 645, there being no purchasers for the latter description . at the prices of last week ; barely one-half of the East India was disposed of at 35s to 36s for good ord brown and yellowish Singapore Java; the remainder was taken in at 42s to 45s tor fine ord pale and coloury Manilla. There is no material change to notice in the value of any description, with the exception of Dutch Company's Java, for which there has been more in quiry, and a trifling advance has been obtained for the parcels sold privately. Foreign sorts continue neg lected ; and of 455 bags Rio brought to auction, only part found buyers at 31s 6d to 32s 6d for good ord pale and coloury, being- 'former prices, but at which there were not purchasers. Small parcels of Padang have been sold privately (for export) at 27s for fair quality; andlow good ord St. Domingo at 30s 6d, with 1 per cent. discount, which are very low prices. CocoA=Ls3l barrels and bags, consisting chiefly of Trinidad, were mostly taken in at 31s to 34s 6d for mid greyish to good red, and 30s to 33s for mid to good St. Lucia, being about the previous value. TEA is quiet, and no disposition is shown to specu late, though prices remain about the same. RUM.--Rather a large business continues to be done in this article at the prices of last week. The tran sactions consist of 150 puns Jamaica at 3s to 3s 6d for 30 to 36 per cent. over proof ; fine quality 3s 8d to 4s 4d; Demerara at 2s 9d to 3s for 32 to 38 over, and 500 puns Leeward Islands at the rate of is 9d fcr proof strength. Rica.—There has been scarcely any inquiry, and to effect sales lower prices must be submitted to. SALTPETRE.--1,291 bags sold in public sale at 295; for 34 per cent. refraction, 28s ; and two lots 28s 6d for 7i to 64 per cent. refraction, being for the better sort rather cheaper. Privately very little has been done. Nitrate of Soda is dull. SPICES.-2,244 bags Pepper (chiefly Penang), and 148 bags Pimento were all taken in, the former at 21d to 24d for fair brownish quality but dusty, and good black Sumatra at 21d, being previous prices, but at u hich there were not purchasers ; the Pimento was taken in above the value at 21d to 21d for ord to good mid quality. Cassia has been inquired for privately, there being at present but very little offering. COTTON.—There has been rather more disposition shown to purchase this article. Surat went off with rather more spirit at a shade higher prices. TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is steady. No alteration in prices. ( From the London New Price Current of October 28.) TEA.—The market has presented a firm appearance this week; a fair business has been transacted in both black and green descriptions, at prices rather ibove those of the last auctions; is 7d to is 74d paid for common sound Congou, cash, is 71d to is for good common, is 8:1-.1 to is 8d for good ordinary Twankay, and 2s Id to 2s 4d for common Hyson, cash. There has been no public sale, and none is declared. The deliveries of Tea from the warehouses are still large, and last week amounted to 470,0001b5. Prices of Tea arc moderate in comparison with those of the last few years. To-clay prices were firm for Te a , and the demand was steady ; is 7 d paid for some parcels of common sound Congou; cash. BRANDY. &c.—Brandy firm in price and fair demand; Cognac, best hl - ands of the vintage of 1839, hhds 4s 6d, puns 4s 4d ; 1840, hhds 4s 2d, puns 4s ; do. 1841, hhds 3s 10d, puns 3s 8d per gallon. Fine old sorts of Brandy are in short supply, Geneva sells slowly at is 9d to Is 10d. The price of English Corn Spirits is the same as it was all last week 9s Bd, at which a fair business has been transacted. NITRATE or SODA.—The transactions have been t o fair extent at 19s to 19s 6d per cwt on the spot ; the con sumption is not equal to that of former seasons, the low prioe of Grain causing the farm ers to turn their attention to cheaper descriptions of manure. - Guano has met with a dull demand, large parcels m a y b e purchased at 91 to 101,.and small quantities 11/ to 121 per ton ; prices are likely to go lower as the stock is still ineresing, INDIGO.—The luarterly sales of East India have ter minated. Since the concitasin,n of the sale merchants have tganifestec rklUch *illness, and both shippers and home dealers have been desirous to operate ;_ several of 'the bought-in lots have by -)en disposed of at the taking-in prices.
