~.......... ._____ LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, Jan. 30. MAGGIONI V. DELAFIELD. It will be remembered that a few days since, perhaps ten, a,report of this case appeared in our colu ms under the head of " Sheriffs' Court." The action was brought to recover flip sum of 1051. for salary alleged to be due, ,and for money due for work and labour t o the plaintiff, in the capacity of foreign correspondent and inter preter in respect to the claim for salary, and in the capaeity of translator , adapter, an d writer ofth e libretti of operas produced at the R o y al Italian O pera, lessee n of which the defen dant became the Il the month of August, 1847, as the work and labour It The defendant allowed judg ment tog o by default. s was proved upon inquiry , that when the negotiat ion s were progressing between the defendant and Signori Persiani and Galetti, and Mr. Beale, that the latter placed before him s everal engagements which had been made with the different artistes and others, and amongst them wa s that of the pr esent plaintiff. The defendant unddrtook to stand in the shoes, as it were, of the then lessees, and to take all the contracts they had entered into upon his own shoulders. The plaintiff was to have $0!. per annum to conduct the foreign correspondence, and to act, if necessary, as an interpreter, and was also to be paid Si. for each libretto to be translated, or adapted, or might write, for the establishment. The action was bropght for one year's salary, whilst the remainder orllbe ellEm was for work and labour. The jury re turned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages, 1951. Mr. Kennedy; some days since, obtained a rule to show cause why the verdict should not be set aside, and a new inquiry be had, or the damages reduced by a de duction of the 801. awarded for salary, on the ground that there bad not been any evidence of the existence of a contract between the plaintiff and the defendant, and for a misdirection of the Under-Sheriff who had presided at the inquiry. Mrs E. Jesus now appeared to show cause, and con tended that a written contract, seeing that the engage ment had only been by the season and not by the year, was not requisite, and that the fact of the defendant having had no specific engagement with the plain tiff read over and explained to him, and then his having taken it upon his, own shoulders was abundant proof of the contract. Mr. KENNEDY was about to offer arguments in sup pqd, of the rule, but — Mfr. Baron ROLFE said it s unnecessary to trouble the Learned Gentleman , for h as quite clear that there e must be proof, under the stat of frauds, of a written agreement. The rule would, therefore, be made abso lute. unless the parties could agree upoa terms. Bule absolute. CONSISTORY COURT, Jan. 30. XII.Es sr. CHILTON, FALSELY CALLING HERSELF MILES. This was a suit of nullity of marriage by reason of bigamy, brought by Captain George F. W. Miles against ,jeavinia Jane Mason Chilton, otherwise Miles. The Mel, which has been admitted, pleaded that a marriage took place between the party proceeded against and Mr. Harrison Chilton in December, 1844; that on the sth of April, 1847, she contracted a de facto marriage with Captain Miles, Mr. Chilton, her husband, being then I still living. In response to the libel, the party proceeded against brought in an allegation, which now stood for admission, and likewise offered an allegation of faculties, in order to obtain an allotment of alimony pending the suit. The admission of the former allegation and the re ception of the httenr were opposed. To make the grounds of opposition intelligible, it is necrsary to state the leading facts pleaded, although the averments are en tirely ex parte. The responsive allegation set forth that in January, 1845, being then a minor , she was residing with her husband at Liverpool, when she was induced ley the earnest entreaties of Captain Miles, an officer of the 2d Hussars, to leave her husband, and on the sth of Febrpary she went to live with him, he being then quarttred at the barracks at Coventry ; that in the oild of 1845, or beginning of 1846, Captain Miles pro posed that she should be legally divorced from Mr. Chil ton, and married to him, and, by intervention of a common friend of Mr. Chilton and Captain Miles, steps were taken for that purpose, the latter providing . funds, and a suit was commenced by Mr. Chilton against his wife in this court, at the expense of Captain Miles, to °burin a - divorce on the ground of her adultery, the cita tion in that Alit being served upon the wife in February, 1846, whilst she was residing with Captain Miles ; but this suit y as dismissed for want of prosecution ; but she was ieformed by Captain Miles that a sentence of divorce had been obtained, and she was free to marry again ; that Captain Miles, in January, 1847, endea voured to obtain a license for their marriage in England; but finding an impediment in the terms of the affidavit, carried her in his yacht to Jersey, where by virtue of a license obtained from the Dean of Jersey, they were married on the sth of April, 1847, she fully believ ing that she was then legally and effectually divorced from Mr. Chilton, and able to marry again, and they lived and cohabited together as man and wife until Jaly, 1847. _ _ Dr. ADDAMS and Dr. R. PHILLIMORE contended. that the responsive allegation was inadmissible, inasmuch as the facts alleged therein, if proved, were no bar to a suit to annul a marriage void under the statute. As to the averment that she was deceived and imposed upon, it appeared that she signed her name at the second mar riage as " Lavinia Jane Mason Chilton, spinster," knowing that she was not a spinster. With regard to the allegation of faculties, there had been no case of nullity of marriage, in which, where the wife admitted the bigamy, as she virtually did in this case, alimony had been allotted. The QUEEN'S ADVOCATE and Dr. HARDING, for the de facto wife, argued that, where there was a fact of marriage, it was a general rule that the wife was en titled to be alirnentad by the husband; the only excep tion to the rule being. where the wife had a competent income of her own. The responsive allegations could not be rejected without . allowing a man to take advan tage of his own wrong, which was contrary to every principle of the law of contracts. Captain Miles had, according to the wife's plea., seduced her from her hus band, and deceived her into a marriage with him, and, under such circumstances, he was not entitled to appear as a plaintiff, or to have the remedy he sought. Dr. LUSILINGTON said, with regard to the allegation of faculties, he had not the slightest doubt it ought to be received, unless the facts pleaded in the responsive allegation barred the other party from proceeding per small exceptione. The doctrine, however, that mar riage was a contract in which a party could not obtain redress for a fraud of which he was cognizant had never been recognised in these courts in matrimonial suits. If he were to admit this allegation, he must in every case open the door to an examination of the whole of the facts and circumstances under which a second marriage took place, and refuse a remedy to every party proceeding, husband or wife, who should be proved to have been cognisant of the invalidity of that marriage at the time. Suppose he were to admit this allegation and refuse to pronounce this marriage null and void, and sup pose the wife should bring a suit for the restitution of conjugal rights, .could he refuse to entertain that suit, or was ha to compel the party now pro ceeding to live with a woman who was not his w)fe? It would throw the whole marital relations into cotnplete epnfusion. Admitting the facts pleaded in the resozsiyas allegation to bear the construction put upon the bjrfohnsel, he was clearly of opinion that they could nneaffee judgment he had to pronounce; and, twin g of that eon, he was bound in duty to reject that all'Eption. respect to the allegation of faculties, the principle was, that where a fact of marriage was al leged or proved, alimony pendente lite followed as a matter of course in all cases, except %here the wife had a provision of her own. He, therefore, rejected the al legation in the prinoipal cause, and received the allega tion of faculties. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) George Philcoz, a young man of respectable appear sive, was indicted for wilful and corrupt perjury. Ball4ntine and Mr. Parry prosecuted; Mr. Pren dprgast was for the defence. Mr. BALLANTINE, in opening the case for the prose , cution, said, that the indictment was preferred by a gen tleman named Edward Jones under these circumstances: —ln the course of last year a person named William Smith brought the prosecutor a bill of exchange for as/ 103., endorsed by another person named Henry James Shaw, and he discounted the bill. When it ar rived at maturity it was not paid, and legal proceedings were taken against Shaw to recover the amount. In the course of the proceedings the prosecutor had reason to believe that the defendant in the action intended to leave the country, and he, in consequence, took the steps directed by the law to prevent him from doing so, and made a n affidavit before one of the l earned detailing the facts upon which the supposition judges, was founded. Smith, w ho was the drawer of the bill, also made an affidavi t, r t e o su c lt us , a to 'a d s y . tha S t oon a capias issued and Shaw was and thetaken in . after this had taken place the present defendant, Philcox, who was Shaw's brother-in-law, made S.D. affidavit in which among other matters, he stated 14th of October and that Smith called upon him on the on the Gth of November, and on t h e first occasion he said that Mr. Jones authorised him to offer him a sove reign if he would swear that Shaw intended to go to America, and on the second he repeated the offer, and increased the sum he first mentioned to 51., and, upon this affidavit bein g ma d e, Shaw was or d ere d to be dis charged. It was upon these statements that the allega tion of perjury was founded, and the question in the case was, whether the defendant had wilfully and cor ruptly made these statements or not. Pormsl goof having been adduced showing the ex istence of the original suit against Shaw, and that the defendant was duly sworn before Mr. Justice Cresswell, and that hie made the statements in his affidavit which formed the subject of the present inquiry, William Smith, the drawer of the bill was examined, and ho swore positively that he never made any suc h offer as that represented by the defendant, and that he did not even see him on the days to which he had re ferred in his affidavit. Mr. PRENDERCIA.ST then cross-examined the witnes s , who gave rather an extraordinary account of the tra n . action. He at first said that the bill was drawn by him self aqd accepted by his father to meet some demands upon Shaw, WI he afterwards said that it was drawn to raise money' for himself and Shaw to carry on business together, and Shaw, on that account, put his name to it as endorser. He described himself as a carpenter, and Bed that at this time ho was in difficulties, and the bill was an accommoda tion bill. He also said that he saw Shaw pas Isis name to the bill, bat he denied that he ve hlsnlielf-,a-crown for doing so. He took the bill to Mr, Jones, s i iid he discounted it for him, and when he Mil took him the bill he gave him 151., and he was also to have a clock. as part of the consideration. He was to give 61. 10s. for the clock, and that sum was deducted from the amount of the bill, but be said he never had the clock, which was still in Mr. Jones's possession, and ho gave Shaw 64 2e. 6d. out of t he 151. The witness THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING. JANUARY 31, 1849. tl t en said that he was examined as a witness before the g ran d jury, when another bill of a similar description to tl ie present was preferred against the defendant. The g rat Id jury threw out that bill, but he did not remember 81 h ying to another of the witnesses that he thought the g rand jury did not believe him. The witness was pressed upon this point, but he gave st tch unsatisfactory answers, and conducted himself in au :ch a manner, that the Recorder interfered, and or de Ted him to answer in a proper manner, and not to val tste the time of the Cotirt. He then said that he might have made such a state me , ni-; at least he might have said that he thought the grt to d jury had a doubt upon his evidence. 1 171 te RECORDER—And expressed that doubt by throw ing e sit the bill? UT eon being further cross-examined, the witness said that : about this time he had gone from his lodging with out p aying the rent, and that there were County Court judgt nests out against him. He gave up stock to the amount of the bill to Shaw, and he expected him to pay i t. Neither witness nor his father had paid any porti , sit of the amount, At the time the bill was dis count ted he owed Mr. Jones some money, and that was dedu, sted from the amount, and Mr. Jones gave him a draft for 11/. 17s. 6d. for the balance. Shaw had part of 01 st money. A person named Rose also endorsed the bill. Rose was a clerk in the Custom-house, and he be lieved he had given a power of attorney to Mr. Jones to secure payment of the bill. The Recoups:it, when the examination of this witness was co, ncluded, inquired of Mr. Ballantine if he had no better witness, remarking at the same time that in a charge of perjury, where the balance of testimony was the only point at issue, it was material that the evidence should be satiAtetory. Mr. BALLANTINE said that if he had depended entirely upon this witness he should have known what course to take, but there was other evidence which he should feel bound to lay before the jury. Mr. Edward Jones, the prosecutor, was then called. He deposed that he resided at No. 34, Penton-street, Pentonville, and that he discounted the bill for Smith. He denied having sent Smith to the defendant to make any such offer as that which he had represented. He said that the consideration for the bill was a sum of 15L in the first instance, a clock, which he was to charge 6/. 10s. for, and he also paid some money on account of Smith, and then handed him over a draft on his banker for 111. 17s. 6d. as the balance. By the RECORDER—It was always understood that the clock was to be given up, and it was not intended as a douceur in the shape of interest. He happened to have three clocks at the time, and they were of no use to him. Would swear that the same clock had never be fore formed part of any bill transaction. Mr. PRENDERGAST (to the witness)—l see by one of the affidavits that you are described as " a gentleman;" pray, how does it happen that a " gentleman" comes to be dealing :with goods in this manner? Witness—l only deal in goods as other gentlemen do, with my own customers. If I have goods on my bands, I let people have them for their value. Unfortunately I have been robbed very often, and there are many men in court who have done it. Mr. PRENDERGAST—Pray don't look round the bar table, Mr. Jones.—(Laughter.) Cross-examination continued—l have been robbed by taking securities which were not paid. If I cannot get money I take goods, and then I use the goods again as part of the consideration when I discount a bill. I have bad cloth in my possession, but never had a quantity of boots or brushes, and I am quite sure this clock was never sold but once. • Mr. PRENDERGAST—I believe, when you had this transaction with Smith, he made an entry to this effect in the book you keep for that purpose—" I have re ceived all the above amount of 3SI. los., with thanks?" Witness—He did make an entry to that effect in my day-book. Mr. PRENDERGAST—That he had received the money " with thanks," and not a word about the clock? Wit ness—No, the clock was charged. Mr. PRENDERGAST-1 10 W many acknowledgments of the same description have you got in this book? It is quite full of gratitude, is it not?—(Laughter.) Cross-examination continued—l got Rose's name to the bill in order to make it more substantial. He owed me money at the time, and I go to the Custom-house under a power of attorney to receive his salary. His salary is 1751 a year, less income-tax.—(A laugh.) Mr. PRENDERGAST—I see you know all about it. Now tell me sir, do you not take all this man's salary and allow him twelve shillings a week for the support of his wife and family? Witness—l do not. I allow him twenty-five shillings a week for his support, and pay his rent and taxes. Mr. PRENDERGAST—I believe you have the names of several other clerks in Government offices in your book of gratitude? Witness—l have. The Learned Counsel then mentioned the name of a clerk employed in the Paymaster-General's office, and asked the witness whether he was not one of those who had, according to the book, received money, " with thanks," from him? The witness said that he was, and added that he was a very honest man. Mr. PRENDERGAST—I believe you used to receive his wages also? Witness—l did. Mr. PRENDERGAST—Did not this poor man destroy himself ? Witness—Yes, he did. The RECORDER inquired of the witness what rate of interest he usually charged? He replied that he charged 5 per cent. upon the money actually advanced, exclusive of any goods that might form part of the transaction. He charged the interest for the period the bill had to run. Some other witnesses were then examined, but their 1 evidence did not carry the case any further. One of them was evidently in a state of intoxication, and he conducted himself so improperly while under examina. tion, that the counsel for the prosecution ordered him to leave the box, and told him that he had acted most disgracefully. Mr. BALLANTINE then said that he had fulfilled his instructions ?Ind had called all the witnesses, and that was the rise for the prosecution. Mr. PRENDERGAST asked if there was any case at all made out which called for an answer ? The RECORDER said he was not the jury. It was for them to say whether they could place reliance upon the witnesses who had been examined. The jury immediately said they could not rely upon the evidence for the prosecution. The RECORDER said he had been of the same opinion a long time, but it was not his province to say so. In a case of perjury, above all others, where a man was charged by another with swearing falsely, it was essen tial that the evidence to support the charge should be above suspicion. The jury then returned a verdict of Not Guilty, and the defendant was immediately discharged from custody. NE TV CO URT. (Before the COXMON-SERJEANT). David Jones, aged 38, labourer, was indicted for having in his possession counterfeit coin. Mr. Bodkin and Mr. Sleigh appeared on behalf of the Mint, and Mr. Payne defended the prisoner. Inspector Brennan, of the G. division, stated, that in consequence of information he had received from the Mile, he went, on the 18th of January, to No. 199, Whitecross-street, St. Luke's, an empty house, in which the prisoner had a room, and having obtained an en trance, he found the prisoner in the passage, and having stated the object of the visit of himself and the officers accompanying him, the prisoner tried to conceal something under his apron, upon which ho was se cured, and in the apron-pocket was found a coun terfeit shilling carefully wrapped lup in soft paper to prevent its being damaged. having handcuffed him, they proceeded to the room occupied by the prisoner, and under an image on the mantelshelt found four more base shillings, all wrapped in separate papers, similar to the one found on the prisoner. An old woman, who occupied the lower part of the house, then came into the room, when the prisoner, addressing her, said, " I have been sold." Upon searching the ashes some white metal, recently melted, was found, but no coining im plements. The prisoner denied all knowledge of the base coin found in his room, and said he had taken the one found on him in the market. In cross-examination Mr. Payne elicited from the old woman alluded to, that a few days previously to the police coming two very suspicious-looking men came to the house, and, under the pretence of looking at it, went into the prisoner's room and stayed there for some time. Mr. PAYNE, in a very able manner, contended that it was most probable those two men had " planted" the money where it was found and then given information to the Mint authorities and so entrapped the prisoner. The jury Acquitted him. John Jones, aged 32, a seafaring-looking man, and Ellen Jones, 28, described as married, were indicted for uttering base coin. It appeared that the prisoner, on the 10th of January, went to the Orange Tree, Barnet, and there passed a crown, and three half-crowns, all of which were bad, and thence went to the Blue Lion, Colney-hatch, Middlesex, and passed three bad half-crowns, at which place they wore apprehended. They were found Guilty, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment. The other Mint cases did not possess any feature of public interest. erest. Harriet Ackley, spinster, aged 21, was indicted for concealing the birth o f her femoalrne,chhaildd. The child, which was still-burn, the prisoner in her box, but there not being bee any p evidence placed by to show that she did not intend making known to her friends where the body was, The jury Acquitted her.—• POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

The following is a copy, verbatim et literatim, of the document referred to by the woman, which was handed in for the magistrate's perusal:— " Wee, john and mary anne barber, do mutally agree to operate for ever giving oach other a free toleration to marry whomsoever wee may think proper; if mary anne barber marris I john barber do agree to pay the marrige cerrimoney, and give wary anne barber to the man shee might fix her choise on in what church she might think proper, and each pledges themselves never to anoy or mislest each other.-16th of May, 1848. (Sined) "JOHN BARBER. " DIARY ANNE BARBER. " Witness, Henry Watson. " Goliah Gray ." In answer to further questions, the applicant said that the witness Goliah Gray, whose name was appended to the paper, was the father of the man against whom she sought redress; and that the documentiwas prepared and executed at his instigation, in order, in some measure, to obviate the scandal arising from her connexion with his son under such circumstances. Mr. Flamini, told the woman that the agreement of separation upon which she appeared to rely was nothing more than waste paper; and, as regarded the liability for her child's support, she had clearly no claim whatever upon Gray as the putative father. In all cases of volun• tary separation between husband and wife it was held, that whatever the subsequent conduct of the latter might be, her children must be deemed legitimate if she con tinued to have access to her husband, and that access was to be presumed if an opportunity for it had been af forded. He considered that such presumptive access ex isted in the present instance, and he must therefore de cline granting the summons against Gray, as her hus band was alone liable in law for the maintenance of the infant. The woman then left the court, evidently much dis satified, and expressing her intention to apply imme diately to the parish to take up the case, and adopt pro ceedings against her husband. LAMBETH. Yesterday James Edward Smart, a powerful young men, who has been for some years under the surveillance of the police, was placed at the bar before Mr. Elliott, on a charge of being concerned, with a young woman named Mary Ann Flood, in robbing and ill-using Ed ward Bates, on Hungerford Suspension-bridge, at a late hour of the night of the 16th instant. Mr. Games attended on behalf of the prisoner. The short facts of the case are these :—On the night of Tuesday, the 15th instant, the prosecutor, who is a printer, in passing over the Suspension-bridge, from the Surrey side to the Hungerford side, met the young woman, Mary Ann Flood (who has since been committed to take her trial on the charge), who stopped and forced him against one of the sides of the bridge, and having secured his watch gave him a desperate blow on the face, which caused him to real to the other side, when he fell with his face against the wall. The stunning effects of the blow and the fall were of such a nature as to deprive him his senses for some moments ; and the in» stant he fell, the prisoner at the bar, who had evi dently been concealed in a dark corner, started for ward and pretended to assist the prosecutor to get up, and while doing so charged him with having taken indecent liberties with the woman who had struck him. At this time the woman was making the best of her way off the bridge; but, by the very praise worthy conduct of Charles Bottom, a waiter at the Dol phin tavern, Milk-street, city, who happened to be ea the bridge at the time, she was secured, and the watch, which she managed to throw away, was found. As re. speeted the prisoner, it was sworn by two witnesses that, about ten minutes before the robbery, he passed through the pay-gate, on the Hungerford side of the bridge, in company with the woman Flood; and the witness (Bot tom) deposed to having seen him emerge from a dark corner, where the woodwork of the bridge commences and where be had evidently concealed himself, and go to the prosecutor. He was afterwards pointed out by the same witness as the man he had seen going to the pro secutor, and was requested by the constable to accom pany him to the station-house; but be soon started off. Since that time two officers have been unceasing in their exertions to apprehend him, but he managed to elude their vigilance until yesterday morning, when he was apprehended at a low brothel in Union-street, South wark- bridge-road. The prisoner, who offered nothing in defence, was fully committed to take his trial with the woman Flood at the present sessions, at the Central Criminal Court.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Jan. 30.) SUGAR.—To-day a further improvement was apparent in proceedings in the market for Colonial Sugar; for Foreign there is much inquiry; West India Muscovado was in excellent demand both for grocery and refining purposes; an advance in prices of 6d per cwt was also obtained. At public sale 128 hhds, 1$ tierces, 4 brls, and 12 cases Barbadoes went readily at a similar rise; fine yellow fetched 41s 6d to 425, goad 40s to 41s, mid dling 38s to 39s 6d, low 37s 6d per owt. REFINED.—To-day the home demand was active for Refined Sugar, and stiffer rates are paid; good brown Lumps realised 49s 6d, and Standard Lumps 50s to 50s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar is held for 28s to 295. ; there is, however, not much demand. MIURITIUS—This afternoon there ware four public sales of Mauritius Sugar, consisting mostly of the better sorts, and comprising 6,140 bsgs; they went di briskly. and in some cases 6d per cwt above former rates. EAST INDIA.—Thin afternoon at public sale 2,114 bags of Bengal Sugar were offered, and sold in some cases 6d per cwt above former rates, good and fine grainy yellow reali.ed 40s 6d to 43s 6d, middling 37s to 38s 6d, low 35s 6d to 365. Of Java 174 baskets were withdrawn. FOREIGN.—There was no public sale to-day of Fo reign Sugar, but privately more desire was evinced to operate, and it was difficult to purchase at former rates. MOLASSEB.—West India continues to be wanted, and former rates are well supported. The private operations are 300 puns. Antigua 20s, Dominica and St. Vin cent's 18s, St. Lucia 17s, and Trinidad of low quality at 16. 6d. For Bengal Treacle the sale is more active at 165 to 16s 6d rer cwt, and a lass amount is on offer. An advance in the value of Honey is apparent.

Ricn.—Prices remain as previously quoted for cleaned; there is a large business doing ; Patna at 13s to 16s, fine 17s to 19s, and American 18s to 20s per cwt. Of fine white Bengal there is still a scanty supply and as the demand is good, former rates of 12a 6d to 13s Sd are well supported. The purchases made in all other kinds have been of little moment by exporters or the home trade, and a fall in the value of 6d per cwt is apparent. TEL—To-day there was much inquiry after Congou, and it is difficult to purchase ordinary sound clean Con gou under 84d per lb. SPIRITEL—Brandy is wanted. Cognac best braids of the vintage of 1847 realise 36 8d to 3s 10d, 1848 ditto 3s 4d to 3s 6d, and inferior 2s 4d to 3s 4d. Deliveries ex ceed those of last year, whilst the quantity here is smaller.

FRUIT.-0n the part of holders of Currants greater firmness is visible; there is also an increased demand at from 35s to 39s per cwt ; indeed some parties will not sell at these rates. Raisins have secured a good sale— prime Valencia realised 38s. Figs remain dull of sale at our quotations. INDlGO.—Several purckases hare been made in Madras during the last few days, and at en advance on the last quarterly sales of 2d to 34 per lb. Bengal is held with firmness at a similar rise, and a fair amount of business has been concluded to supply the home and export orders. TALLOW.—On the spot fine P. Y.

Taylor and Bright's circular states that with very small arrivals or all descriptions of groin during th.• past week, this market has been exce.dirgly firm, and in some instances a little over the current rites of last Tuesday was obtainable, especially for the better run. of red wheat and Saal barley. The feeling seems to gain ground that the effect of the release of bonded stocks on the Ist proximo has been more than anticipated, ant that prices are not likely to recede, as was apprehended. For this day's market our farmers brought a moderate supply, and evinced no disposition to take alarm at the release of bonded stocks; our millers were buyers at about is per qr over last Tuesday's prices for best runs. A good inquiry for foreign. and freely met at about is more money. As we have had occasion to observe be fore, the stock of fine wheat is by no means large here; indeed it forms only a small proportion of what is in granary. Fine barley meets fair sale, but second descrip tions of malting are much neglected. Grinding is rather dearer. More business doing in beans at the full cur rency of last week. In oats and peas we note no altera tion. Only a limited business passing in linseed, of which arrivals are insignificant. Linseed cakes a good deal neglected. Small stocks of rapeseed, and only a small business at long prices A little more inquiry for rake cakes. Nothing new in bones. The following are the present prices of grain:— a. s.

The weather continues very stormy, and although the winds have been favourable for arrivals, we have to report very limited supplies of everything but oats, Egyptian beans, Indian corn. and oatmeal sue , this day week. The exports in the same thee amount to 1,077 quarters wheat, 10,958 quarters Indian corn, 316 sacks and 1,415 barrels flour. As the Ist of Fe bruary approaches more steadiness appears in the trade, both in the agricultural and importing markets, which may probably indicate that the immediate effects of free trade have been fully anticipat, d. At the close of the week an improved demand was experienced for free wheat at an advance of 1d; and bonded was 2d per 701 b higher. Oats and malting barley were less plentiful and rather dearer; and oatmeal was not lower than on Tues day. For beans and peas there was very little inquiry. Indian corn met a fair sale at the advanced prices of Tuesday. Free flour was not in much request, but prices were supported; and bonded advanced 6d per barrel; 25s 9d being paid for Philadelphia, and 26s 6l per barrel for Western Canal. The official account of the stocks in bond on the 10th of January inst. has been published, and shows less accumulation than was ex pected. Wheat, 498,834 quarters ; barley, 63,856 quar ters; oats, 34,316 quarters; rye, 8,461 quarters; peas, 15,272 quarters; beans, 26,191 quarters; Indian corn, 3,239 quarters; flour, 284,580 barrels. At this day's market there was a good attendance of dealers, and a fair but not extensive demand for wheat, at a further improvement of id to 2d per bushel on the prices of Fri. day, being 2d to 3d per 701 b dearer than on this day week. Oats were not in lively request, bat prices w ere id per 451 b higher; there was, however, very little in quiry for oatmeal, and 23s per load was the top price of best Irish. Barley, beans, and peas were without im provement in demand or value. Flour was in better re quest, and prime Western Canal saleable at 27s 6d per barrel, but Irish was slow of sale, and no dearer. There was only a moderate demand for Indian corn, at the full prices of this day week, which were rather better than on Friday. MANCHESTER.—The Indian market was yesterday as brisk as during last week; the same rates, and in some cases even higher, wore obtained. All goods for that market are in brisk demand. The spirit of speculation which has appeared in the cotton market has begun to operate most injuriously. Prices for the raw material are now so high that the manufacturer finds it impossible to obtain a remunerative return. A considerable check has been experienced duriog the last few days, and mer chants have held in their orders to such a degree that very little business has been transacted. At the present prices for cotton the manufacturer cannot produce except at a loss. Yesterday but few samples were shown by the producers, and some even roused to name say prices. It is feared by some that should the cotton mar ket continue in its present unsatisfactory state, some mills amongst the spinners will have to resort to short time operations. The continental houses generally are doing but little during the present week. LEEDS, JAN. 30.—We have a small show of grain here to-day. Wheat and barley have met an improved demand, at fully is per quarter advance. Oats and beaus are also each rather dearer. There was a good attendance of merehants in the cloth halls, but not so much business done at this day's market as was tra , s acted on. Saturday. The goods which changed owners were principally for shipping, comprising wool-dyed blacks, blues, &c. Prices c nitinue much the same as they have ruled during the month. tlEczsioNDwißE, JAN. 29.—The attendance of mer chants to day was very small, and little business was transacted in blankets, but a low orders were put out ior shipping. DALKEITH MEAL MARKET, JAN. 29.—There were 127 bags of oatmeal, 33 of barley meal, and 1 of pot barley at this day's mar ket; sales ready ; oatmeal same as last week; barleymeal is per bag down; the pot- barley was riot sold.

THE FRENCH BUDGET OF 1849-50. (From La Patric.) The Members of the National .assembly have re ceived the first and the third volumes of the budget of the year 1849. Tnese two volumes contain the general documents and tables of the receipts and ex penditure, as well as the special budgets of the army and navy. . . _ We subjoin the following general statistical par ticulars : The receipts of 1849, compared with those of 1848, pre,ent a falling off, on one side of nearly 438,000,000 f., and an increase, on the other, of nearly 244,000,000 f., thus leaving a net diminution of re-. sources for the current year to the amount of 194,000,000 f. The expenditure is, on the one hand, diminished by a sum of nearly 220,000,000 f., and increased, on the other hand, by nearly 41,500,000 f. in consequence of the increase of the national debt, and finally dimi nished by 178,500,000 i. The uncovered deficiency of the budget of 1849, compared with that of 1848, presents a final increase of 15,500,000 f., or, in precise figures, 15,510,352 f. The decrease of 438,000,000 f. on the receipts in cludes 191,000,000 f. fur the extraordinary additional tax of the 45 centimes, which will not be renewed, the 232,000,000 f. obtained by the loan of the 24th of July, and the loan subscribed by the shareholders of the Paris and Lyons Railroad, and from 12,000,000 f. to 14,000,000 t. arising from various contingent sources of revenue. In the increase of 244,000,000 f. on the receipts have been included 99,000,0001: expected to accrue from the tax on fluctuating incomes, and the addi tional duties proposed on donations and inheritances, a presumed improvement of nearly 84,000,000 f. on the indirect taxes , 36,000,000 f. i ncrease on t h e reserve o f the sinking fund, and 9,000,000 f. due from the Northern Railroad Company, tv.c. As regards the expenditure, the sum of 220,000,0001. is the total amount of ail the reductions introduced or projected in the various public services, especially in the department of public works, and the 'Budgets of the army and navy. The inidget of - the army presents a decrease of 76,000,000 f. (3,000,000/. in round numbers). The effective force of the army, which amounted on the ht of December last year to 502,196 men and .00,432 horses, is to be reduced this year by 121,379 men and 8,002 horses, leaving an effective force of 380,824 men, of whom 78.000 are destined for Africa, and 92,410 horses, of which 15,490 are destined for the same quarter. The budget of the navy is reduced by 22,000,000 f. (nearly 1,000,0000 The "active" fleet will be coal' posed of 10 ships of the line, 8 frigates, 18 corvettes, 24 brigs, 12 transports, and 24 goelettes, or cutters, manned by some 20,000 seamen. '1 here will be, be sides these, 2 ves , els and 5 frigates equipped for set live in harbour, and 8 vessels and 10 frigates in ordi. nary (en commission de port). The steamers belong' ink to the "active" fleet w ill consist of 10 frigates, 12 corvettes, and 34 avisos; 21 vessels—namely," frigates, 6 corvettes, and 6 avisos—will remain In ordinary. The budget of Public Instruction is increased to the extent of nearly 3,000,0001. The floating debt has increased by upwards Of . 41,000,000 f. Such, in brief, is the budget of 1849.50.

NORTH LAMBETH BIBLE ASSOCIATION..—Las t evening the thirty filth annual meeting of this Assocnr Lion was held in the Boys' Parochial Schoolroom, Lam' beth-green, Lambeth. John Tritten, Esq., presided 00 the occasion. The meeting was numerously and very respectably attended. A deputation from the British and Foreign Bible Society, and the Secretaries from the Sotithwark Auxiliary, were on the platform. The chair' man, 'in opening the proceedings, briefly addressed the assembly: After a few introductory remarks upon th e good which these societies had been instrumental in doing, he contrasted the stormy state of Continetl.: tal Europe during the pa s t y ear w i t h t hi s loffii and happy kingdom, and said that the quietud e of this empire was in a great measure to be a ttri" tinted to the Bible, the book which was being so ill . dustriousiy circulated by the Lambeth and m any other associations, owing to its being much mor e read and studied in this land than in others by th e people, who make the revolutions. The chairman con' eluded by calling on the Secretary to read the report' From this document it appears that the receipts for th e past year have been 115 t 2 1 . 9d. Th e num b er of Bibles which have been distributed during the last try months is 149, and the number of Testaments 171. Th°, total number of Old and N e w T es t amen t s di str ibuted since the commencement of the society is 14,492. .A ll. other point which the repo;t referred to was, that th e distributors are now collecting small amounts from th e inhabitants of Lambeth for the purpose of forming I/ fund, in conjunction with the Parent Bible Society, the proceeds of which are Cr be spent in purchasing Bible+ tracts, &e., which are to be sent to the heathen in foreig n lands. The report. being adopted, several resolution s were then proposed sccotled. and spoken to by variol l _. s r.'verend gentlemen ; atte r which a vote of thanks vol' given to the Chairman, and the meeting separated.
