The question is often debated, Where is the best market to buy the necessaries of life? among the more important of which may be enumerated tea, coffee, and sugar. There exist different opinions, as is sure to be the case, and ever will be, until people knew how to decide v 6 hat c onstitutes cheapness. Tea is an article of such general consumption that its quality and price are very essential considerations. There exists great difficulty in judging its 'value by appearance, and families, to secure -good qualities, are frequently Induced to pay extravagant prices. Why should this be?

And It is also proposed by the said intenfied Act to make further provision for the recovery of all or any rates, charges, expenses, or other moneys authorised to be levied, made, charged, or received by the said Commissioners, and tor the regulation of or otherwise in relation to all or any of the ferries, markets, parks, cemeteries, wharves, cranes, or other property, matters, or things, belonging to the Commissioners, and for the regulation of hackney carriages, drivers, porters, and others, within the said district, and tsr the making and enforcing of bye-laws in relation to all or any of the Matters aforesaid. — lnti - itVaISO proposed by the said intended Act to authorise the Commissioners and Francis Richard Price, Esq., and his trusters, to Make and carry into effect certain arrangements for more effectually Vesting in the Commissioners the Woodside Ferry and certain lands contracted to be purchased by the Commissioners acting in the exe cution of the said recited Acts; and t..) raise a sum of money, by the creation of bonds or mortgages, for paying the consideration moneys for the purchase of the said ferry and lands, and to make such bonds or mortgages a first charge on the said ferry, and the property be longing thereto or connected therewith, and the boats and vessels used or employed by the Commissioners in relation thereto, aid on the tolls receivable in respect thereof; and also to enable the said C ommissioners to make a portion of the said purchase moneys a first ch arge upon other lands of the said Commissioners. "jt it is also proposed by the said intended Act to make ..ertain provisions touching the bond or mortgage debt o f the ; 6ut tn i ssioners, and to regulate and (if need be) to alter the Pt; privileges, priorities, and securities of the bendholders (' Mortgagees, and to authorise the bondholders or mortgagees Purchase land from the Commissioners, and to surrender their nit. or mortgagees in lien of payment of money as the considers -12.04 for the purchase of such land, and to make further provision for U a blicg the Commissioners to acquire and hold lands, and to sell or dispose of all or any of the lands vested in or belonging to them. r , And it is al so proposed by the said intended Act to enable the ;. • _ r °ttlr nissioners to raise for all or any of the purposes aforesaid a thkr stem of money, and to apply and appropriate such parts of ',lie rates, assessmen t s , tolls, rents, property, and re ven ue of the of au as they shall think flt , for or towards the execution 0 11 or any of the purposes hereinbefore mentioned ;* and also to t" ' ' PnWer the Commissioners to make, assess, levy, and receive all o any o f the rates, assessments, tolls , or charges now receivab i e by the r Commissioners acting in the execution of the said recited Acts, "IQ to alter or vary such rates, assessments, tolls, and charges, or som e of them, and to confer, vary, or extinguish exemptions from 0 Payment thereof, and other rights and privileges.

Sir,—lt is now three and a half years since I was sorely afflicted with Rheumatic Gout, the suffering from which induced me to try all the proposed remedies that extensive medical experience could devise, without obtaining any satisfactory relief from pain. During one of the paroxysms a friend advised me to try BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, observing that he had in some severe cases taken them himself, and they preyed very successful. I in stantly adopted his advice, and to my joy the excruciating torment soon began to abate, and a few boxes restored me to health, since which I have had no return of the complaint. " I trust you will give publicity to my case, that suffering humanity may know bow to obtain a remedy for this distressing disease. " I am, Sir, your obedient humble servant, " MICHAEL NASMYTH."

John Francis, who . stands charged with the cold blooded murder of Thomas Hall, one of the warders, underwent a very lengthened examination before Mr. Burrell, one of the Westminster police -court magis -1 trates, at the Milbank prison, on Saturday, the only 4 , persons present being the magistrate and clerk, Mr. Hay ward, from the Treasury, and Captain Groves, governor of the gaol at th e ti me o f hi s entrance. c* The prisoner was brought in closely guarded by two - turnkeys. He exhibited throughout the same o callousness as on the occasion of the coroner's inquest. 127 He listened without the slightest emotion to the horri i G 9 t 69 ble details of this cold- blooded tragedy, and with - much cunning carefully avoided, in his questions to the witnesses, the slightest allusion to th:t portion of ;heir testimony affecting him, but wasted considerable time in putting, as before, frivolous and irrelevant questions. I He is a man about five feet five inches in height, does not develop much muscular power, al though well knit:, and is of the Jewish persuasion. The offence which originally consigned him to this gaol was a larceny, after previous conviction for a similar offence. He was furnished with pens, ink, and paper, and took notes of the proceedings. The witnesses who had severally given their evi dence before the coroner's jury having been sworn, repeated their statements in almost the same words, nor did the frequent interruptions or questions of the prisoner go a step further than before to show any motive for the commission of the dreadful crime upon an inoffensive mull, in whom kindness seems to have been a leading characteristic. The witness Westbury, an elderly convict, who appeared to be a man of some feeling, was so ex cited by a recapitulation of the words he had heard uttered and the part he had seen of this fearful tra gedy, that he exclaimed, with tears running down his face, "It was a sight I shall never forget; to be within view of a man being murdered, and not to be able to help him, in dreadful indeed; to be fastened up and know that such a thing is going on, is more thin a man can bear. If I had been loose my poor strength could have been of very little service, still would willingly have tried to save him." Upon the depositions being completed and read over, Mr. Burrell, in the usual form, asked the pri soner whether he wished to sa y any thing ? Prisoner—l have only two requests : the one is that I may be furnished with copies of the depositions; and the other is that I may be sent to Newgate and have a fair trial. Having been informed that he could have copies upon the usual terms, Mr. Burrell observed, that his warrant would com mit him to Newgate. Prisoner—l have been in irons all the time I have been removed from ray ward. Mr. Burrell—l have nothing whatever to do with that. Prisoner—The session commences on Monday week. I know I shall get no justice here. Captain Groves remarked that there had been every desire evinced on his part to treat the prisoner with the utmost fairness. He had communicated with the persons named by the prisoner as his friends, but none of them had interested themselves is his behalf. Prisoner—l ought to have been sent away from here after the coron.m.'s inquest. I was told I should be taken before a magistrate. The laws of my country sayjustice shall be done. Mr. Burrell—And there is no doubt it will. The prisoner was then removed, muttering into. herent sentences. Captain Groves observed that he should be very glad to get rid of him, as he really could not afford to have two men constantly placed over him; and from the desperate character of the prisoner, he was afraid, after what had happened, if he were to attempt another act of the same description, something serious might result. Mr. Burrell observed, that the prisoner appeared very mindful of the slightest thing affecting his own interest, although he did not exhibit the slightest emotion at the dreadful details given by the witnesses. [ There appears to be some legal difficulty with re spect to the removal of a convict, or the prisoner would doubtless have been sent to Newgate upon the coro• ner's warrant. The difficulty, it is understood, has been overcome by some other instrument, and the pri soner was taken to Newgate in the course of the after noon in a cab.] STATE OF TRADE....-.I3IRMINGIIAM, SATURDAY.-- The manufacturers of this town are generally pretty well employed, although, as is always the case in Bir mingham, where its trades are so various, in some branches there is little doing. It must be recollected, commencementmanuft manufacture of tibheey ensuing shoul d y e b year. otherwise w iron n however, that a few weeks before Ch r i stmas a few businesses arc usually dull, no r i s i t lik e l y in some de. s e n r t i i P l li t t h m e sofac trade is represented to be flit as compared with the promises held out at quarter-day. Orders for the home market come in tardily, and one or two furnaces have been put out of blast. DOWNING STREET GOSSIP.—Mr. R. Carter has been appointed Treasurer of Newfoundland; Mr. C. Bayley, Colonial Secretary at Mauritius; Mr. C. Lake, stipendiary magistrate at Jamaic I. The following ap pointments were made on Saturday by the Lords of the Admiralty:—H. A. llollinworth, lieutenant, to the In defatigable; P. A. St. Leger, commander, to study steam at Woolwich. Letters which reached town on Saturday from Lord Lincoln represent the Noble Eatl's health as considerably improved by his marine excursion. As at present arranged, his Lordship will not return to Eng land until after the meeting of Parliament. We are happy to learn that the Duke of Newcastle, whose serious indisposition we announced last week, is fast recovering. Owing to the lamented illness of Earl Fortescue (Lord Steward of her Majesty's Household) his Lordship has been advised to pass the winter in the Mediterranean. His son, the lion. Member for Barnstaple, accompanies the Noble Earl, and we have authority to state that the Queen has been graciously pleased to approve of Via count Ebrington acting as vice-lieutenant for the county during his noble father's absence. A rumour, which received general credence, prevailed on Saturday in Westminster Hall, and afterwards in the clubs, of the decease of Lord Denman. We are happy to have it in our power to state that there is no truth in this report of an event which, whenever it may occur, will be universally deplored on personal and national grounds. We were informed on Saturday night at the town residence of Lord Denman, that the accounts received during the week from Stoney Middleton re presented his Lordship to be steadily improving in health, and that letters written with his own hand had been received on Friday. There is no foundation for the rumour of Mr. R. D. Browne's death. The Hon. Member was lately confined to his chamber for some days by an attack of influenza, but is now convalescent. Mr. Cobden is making arrangements for attending a series of meet ings among his constituents in the West Riding. The Post-office authorities are now engaged in negotiating with the American Government an arrangement for better regulating the accounts upon the international correspondence between this country and the United States. The suggestions, which have emanated from the authorities here, are directed to obviate the present tedious and inconvenient system of making up and taxing the American correspondence at Liverpool. It is proposed that either office should account to the other for the weight of letters by the gross, and not by the individual letter. This system has been adopted with reference to the French and English mails, and the result has been highly satisfactory.— Weekly Chronicle. ALARMING FIRE AT CAMDEN-TOWN.—DISCOVERY OF AN ILLICIT STlLL.—Yesterday morning, about three o'clock, the premises, 6, King's-place, Camden town, were discovered to be on fire. An instant alarm was given and messengers were sent for the engines. In a very brief period the parish and London Brigade engines arrived, when the firemen found that the flames had commenced in a loft over the coach-house, and had ex tended into another similar building over the stabling. With assistance the flames were extinguished, when it was ascertained that one part of the premises where the fire had fallen into was used as a private still, and had no doubt been so engaged for some time past, the owners of which, upon hearing the alarm of fire given, succeeded in making their escape before the police came up. The whole plant was immediat e ly se i ze d by theauthorities.No ono in the neighbourhood had th e l eas t idea of illicit distillation being carried on in the premises. The build ing was insured in the Phoenix Fire-office.

METROPOLITAN COMMISSIONERS or SE WERS.-- On Friday the Commissioners held a Fe , eral court tor the purpose of laying a rate of 80. in the pound for the half year on th e S ur rey and Kent districts. Two letters of objection to the rate were read . by the secre tary —the first from Mr. Charles Bow, found, d on the small amount of work done in his neighbourhood, from which a portion of the rate was to be raised. This objection the Commissioners agreed . in -regarding as unfounded. The second letter was from Mr. Henry Thomas, of St. George's-road. It complained in strong terms that little had been done by the Commissioners in that vicinity, and particularly that an o p en sewer which had been :ending forth pestilential vapours for the; ; ; forty years had not been closed up. The letter iurther complained that sums of money collected in one dis trict were expended i n others. This letter was also decided to be more in the nature of a complaint than of a valid Objection to the rate. The secretary then read a memorial fro m H enry Ed g i ngton and eight other inhabitants of Bermondsey, objecting to the rate, on the ground that it would be unequal in its collection, Ber mondsey being rated upon a rack-rent basis, while Lam beth, with which they were in partnership, had adopted a far lower assessment. The Commissioners on this held that the rate was imposed according to the terms of the Act of Parliament, and that it there was any hardship felt it lay with, the parishes themselves to remove it, by facilitating an uniform rating. Th e objection having been overruled, the rate was si gne d b y !he requisite number o f Commissioners, and having been formally declared and published, the Court adjourned.
