CITY MARKETS, TWO o'CLOCK. PLANTATION SUGARS.—The market is excessively flat this morning, and up to the present hour scarcely any business haS been done two .boardS. of good Moutserrats have been sold at 625. The deficiency in stock, which last week was 15,969 Casks, is now only 14,726 Casks.. In Foreign Sugars there is very little doing. ~REFINED SUGARS.—The only description in de mand are low Lumps,:which are,still scarce, and are taken off at 84s. to 84s. 6d. Col FEE have been no Public Sales this. morning, and very few purchases, by private contract are reported. The demand appears exceedingly dull at present. . • FRUIT.—A very extensive public sale was brought forward yesterday, consisting of 107 butts a n d 70 caroteels new Currants, great part ofwhich were sold, Mitts 905.-to 915.: caroteels 925; to 9.35.: 35 half, and 99 quarter brls. new Prunes 455.; 100 half and 600 quarter chests Imperial, 5,35: a 82s.'; small boxes do. 5/. 10s. to 54 15s. ; ,Baskets do. 71. 2s. to 71. 45.; Cartoons do. 71. )7s“ Quarter Cartoons ditto, 101. 195;,. boxes new Jordan Almonds, 11/. lls.; new Bunch Muscatel Raisins; in boxes, halves, and quarters, Si. 15s. t 0.71. I9s. ; also, 4,039 boxes and 1,036 half-boxes new ':Valentia Raisins, part only of .the boxes sold at Ws.. the halves were taken in .at 61s. and Deniasin BaSkets at 41s. The unsteady manner in which the importers have regulated the price of Valentia Raisins this season, and their attempting to . force them off by Public Sale, although : there is nobody to ,compete with them in the market, has induced the buyer's to act with extreme caution, consequently they will not take a package more than they have orders for and many of them recommend the consumers to withhold their orders for the present. The price quoted last week was 625., to-day they are pressing theM off to 605.; although there are no further arri vals, several cargoes are hourly expected. New red Smyrna Raisins are much enquired after but there are none here, they are daily expected to arrive. NeW Sultanas haVe been sold a 55; New pulled Turkey FigS continue to be taken off at GOs. a 635. COTTON.--:The demand for Cotton is rather more brisk than it has been for, some days past, the advices from Liverpool being rather more favourable. There have been several heavy, deliveries of East India Cotton within the last week ; the prices this morn ing may be. quoted a shade higher.; Egyptian con tinue in demand; the export of cotton manufactured goods are ,on a very extensive scale. . . The SPICE Market is steady, but no large .pur chaSes have been effected since the last India sale. As a war would tend to increase the present rate of prices very considerably, the holders appear dis posed to await the issue of the arrival of information from Constantinople: OrderS have been received from the Continent for, large purchases, in the. event of the breaking out of hostilities. Should specula tion be revived in spices, there can be. no doubt that an adVance of from 50 to 100 per cent: would, soon be realized. In SALTPETRE we have not heard of any bar gains above 2.ris. 6d. within the last two days. The rnmours relative to the affairs of Greece and Turkey not having had so much effect on the Market as was expected. Should war be commenced, an advance of •100 per cent. may be safely calculated upon. In T4Low, speculation is extremely l a n gu id, but the demand for consumption continues steady, and this added to the prospect of the speedy setting in of the frost at St. Petersburgh, has rendered prides firm at from 375. ed. 375. 9d. per cwt. The imports in the week ending last night have been 5,351 cwt., and the deliveries 7,311 cwt. Hemp is firm at the late advance, and the deliveries have ex ceeded 3,600 cwt. since this day week. 'Bristles remain at the same prices as last week. SILK.—The demand for Turkey silk is brisk, there being a probability of the supplies being impeded. The advance is stated at from Is. to Is. 6d. per lb. Italian, however,. does not participate in the im provement._ Hops.--The briskness noticed in the Hop trade last week has not continued. The declaration of the duty is looked for with great anxiety; in some quarters it is stated to be as high as 141,0004' but the more general opinion is that it will not ex ceed 140,0001. Kent bags are quoted S6s. 'to 100 s., Sussex ditto from 765. to 84t. per cwt . . There is a sale going on at the' India - House this morning, of Hemp,• ElephantS' Teeth, China-ware, mother of Pearl,:Btc The Company have declared for sale on the 22d January 1,054 chests of Indigo.

At the cattle fairs and markets of tile past week we understand there has been no great variation, either in this country or Ireland. A general complaint, however, prevails of the inferior condition of the beasts offered for slaughter, as well as a grumbling on the part of purchasers at the high prices asked ; but • the real state of the case is this : the depression in the value of skins, hides, and tallow, owing to almost unrestricted importation,, causes butcher's meat to be much higher to the consumer than the value received by the grazier for his animals seems . - at all to warrant; and, indeed, it must be admitted, that , the price in the shambles appears.oat of proportion to the value of corn. For insta nce , from 6d. to 9d. per pound for meat, and only 50s. a q uarte r f or fa i r gr i n di ng w h eat , cannot long be the relative prices. Let the grazier then be careful in his future speculation. Horn and corn must go together; and as Ministers have it in their poWer to keep the one down, that one must reduce the other. We find the scarcity of good fat stock also extends to Scotland.— enicla !Mercury. ECECIITEON. Malcolm Gillespie, Excise Officer at Skene, suffered yesterday in front of the gaol of this city the awful punish ment of the law, for the crime of forgery. This unfortu nate man was' indicted along with his clerk or servant, George -Skene Edwards, on eight different char ges . A verdict of guilty of seven of these charges was returned against the panels,-but an objection being taken ag a i ns t the verdict, as respected the latter, on: the ground of his not having issued the forged bills or turned them to his own account, although he had adhibited the forgedsigna tures, his case was certified to the High Court of Justiciary, before which it is to be heard on the l 9th inst. Gin e , pie in the mean time, received sentence of death, and pl ace d great reliance on a petition transmitted from this quarter, and ,signed by some persons of distinguished rank, as-well as on other applications in ,iris favour. But although no . such weighty influence had almost at any time been exerted, for saving an individual, so aggravated was his guilt consi dered, that his case was pronounced such as could not warrant a recommendation to the throne for a remission of his sentence. This was communicated by the Secretary of State to his law agent, in a letter received on Tuesla3 - laq, when Gillespie became at , last sensible of his danger. He appeared horror-struck on receiving the awful gence, he expected otherwise, and expressed an earnest wish that no application had been made—saying, oh ! my poor family !--poor orphans! He soon after resumed a degree of firmness, and sent on Wednesday for the ReV. Dr. Kidd, to administer to him the consolations of religion, which• he had hitherto regarded with apathy. The Bev. Dr. readily obeyed the call, remaining with him during- the greater part of the night, and a, considerable part of the following day. Some of his family were admitted to take leave of him on Thursday, and the scene was of the most affecting nature. • During the n ig ht he was attended by the Chaplain of the gaol, and passed it With a surprising degree of composure, sleeping three or four hours i n t h c . morning. About, a quart er p ast two, he ent ered'the Old Court-house, genteelly Ar',-;ssed in mourning, with deep weepers, and after taking his place immedi a t e ly oppos i te the Bench on which the Magistrates were seated, app eare d somewhat agitated. Three verses of the eighth Paraphrase were ,then sung, after whirls Dr. Kidd deliVered an, im pressive prayer in behalf of the criminal. Gillespie here appeared rather, faint, and a4ced for r: glass of water, which being immediately brought him, he recovered, and said he wished to address the Magistrates, and as he was now on the brink of eternity,, he was not to die with a lie in his mouth, and then, at considerable length, detailed the parti cilars connected with the forgeries of which he had beer: Convicted—the 'honest intention he had of withdrawing them without lose to any one—the means he had of doing solemnly declared, as a'dying man, that he was innocent of the crime for which he suffered, He' then moved forward to the scaffold, where he looked round with , greAt comptimre;ana having taken leave of the Clergymen and Gentlertien near him, submitted himself to the executioner, and: immediately after, ,abort twenty minutes froin three o'clock Was launched into 'eternity, dying almost instantaneously, with very little :apparent struggle. There were two other indictments against him foi foigery, and one fOr wilful fire raising, at Crombie Cottage, his' place of residence. It was fully established' in evidence, that Gillespie was the author and abettor of this atrocious. act, while a hideous system of depravity, of the most re volting:description, was at the same time developed. Gillespie was born at Daublane, in Perthshire, and was about 50 years of age. When about 17,years old he en listed in the Ist Regiment of Foot, and after recruiting about three years for ,that corps, was, by the interest of the commanding officer, Lord Adam Gordon, appointed in 1799 an Expectant in the Excise, and soon after an Officer in that department. From that time to nearly the presenf, period, he has continued in this service, and has, for.years, been distinguished for his activity and prowess in the stip preSSion of smuggling; in many desperate cases. He had latterly deviated 'from that steady line of Conduct which could insure success ; and his establishment at Crombie Cottage seems to have been . a source of prolrg'ate extrava gance, which brought him, in his headlong career, to violate the laws of his country—throwing down every barrier of moral restraint towards the .supply of his increasing Ai gencies. —Aberdeen Chronicle. - • ' • • DRUR Y-LANE THEATRE.

A new piece, entitled '•C Nelson, Or . the Life of a Sailor," which was 'Ought forward for the first time at this Theatre, Was, in consequence of the good acting of Mr. Terry, as our great NaVal Hero, re ceived with unqualified applause.

The unfortunate WILLIAMS was carried • into his house dangerously wounded, and bleeding profusely.

AMES CONST, THE CONVICT. • - An unusual degree of interest is "excited with respect to the fate of this young man, now under sentence of death in Newgate fOr a rape, Whose ease was to have been reported to his Majesty in Council on Friday last, when it Was postponed. Since the prisoner's conviction, his father, who is a re :spectable Man, .has been indefatigable in his endeavours to avert the impending fate of his hapless son ; and we have been informed, from authentic sources, that he has made xl;scoVeries.,which go to invalidate the evidence a the pro stidithix hr tussle very material points. The Gentlemen of the Juey who convicted the prisoner bare held a special *meeting, and the facts have been laid be fore them, and they have unanimously declared, that had these circmostances (whatever they are) been disclosed at the trial, they should, in all probability, have returned a dif ferent verdict, and they have memorialized the Secretary of 'State to that effect. A Surgeon, who resides in the neigh bourhood where the alleged offence was committed, upon reading the report of the trial in the newspapers, lilt a con vietiofe that the prosecutrix was the person whom he had attended professionally when she was confined in a certain way ; and upon - nvestigation; he found that he was right in his conjecture. Notwithstanding that this gentleman was unknown to Const or his family, he made the commu nication to his father, upon which an inquiry was set on tbot, the result of which is said to be favourable to the ac cused, inasmuch as it. goes to detioy the credibility of some parts of the prosecutrix's testimony. Several reasons hive been assigned for the consideration of this case being postponed ; but upon inquiry we learn that the investigation of forty other cases had exhausted so much time, that it was impossible to enter into the inquiry, as there had been so many documents trans mitted to the Secretary of State's office with a view to a ,mitigatiOn of sentence;, besides, His Majesty had to re turn to Windsor immediately after the Council dissolved. The trial of Const will he considered when the Recorder makes his report of the prisoner , convicted at the late Oc tober sessions. WINTER ASSIZES, 1827. HOME, CIRCUIT. (Before Sir J. A.

Application was made •to Captain LOCKHART of Cambusnethan, fora stone for the purpose, who politely granted the • request. • One weighing upwards of five tons was cut out,. and on Thursday last, a number of people assembled to` their assistance to have it conveyed to Mr. GREENSIIIEteS house. A waggon drawn by eight horses, was obtained, whieb had been constructed for the pprpose of conveying such huge masses to the Duke of HAA I II:TON'S Palace. The stone was poised from its bed in the quarry, and being safely placed on the ponderous Machine,- it moved off amid the repeated cheers of the spectators. 'f he cavalcade passed slowly along, and after overcoming' a number of difficulties, the stone was laid down in the appointed place. It is Mr.. Cts:ExsittEr.n's intention to represent his Rozn-AJ.

Mr. GREEN sOnf.ns has been brought up under the eye of Mr. Fon ayst the celebrated sculptor, and having already made a very handsome small statue of the late Mr. CANNING, and several ot6rs, which are much admired, his friends are confident that he will complete his present undertaking in a •way highly creditable to his taste and talents , — Scotsman.

S DOCKS.-STRIKE or THE Wonam EN. — The . principal part of the workmen em ployed in dal undertaking, particularly bricklayers and la bourers, amounting to above 400 in number, struck work yesterday morning: Matters appeared to go on in their usual routine until seven o'clock, when the whole, as if by a given signal, departed from within the enclosure, and declined pursuing their usual employ. The reason as signed for this departure is not an anxiety on their parts to raise the quantum of. remuneration, already moderate enough, which they receive for their perilous and unhealthy labours, but to remonstrate against its reduction. Through- Out the year the In icklayers were paid at the rate of four shillings per diem, and the excavators or labourers at that of three shillings. During the last week it Was announced that these sums were considered too extravagant, and that they would he diminished .from the 19th (yesterday), to Bs. 6d. fo.: the bricklayers, and 2s. 9d: for the labourers. This they are determined to resist, saying, that at this sea son of the year, when the prices of fuel and provisions are on the increase the proposed reduction was ill-timed, and the reduced wages inadequate to their support. The fault lies not at all with the. COmpany, the men chiefly blame the contractors ; but, be this as it may, it is to he hoped for the sake of all, that the schism will be soon closed, and the works allowed to proceed, SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Our private correspondence from Lisbon to the 4th instant, and a file of the Lisbon Gazette down to the same period, enable us to fill up the interval between the last arid the present arrivals with information as copious and satisfactory as could have been expected. As the - time for Don Miguel's accession to the Regency ap proaches, the enemies of the Charter, pretending to be the friends of the rrince, seem to be re doubling - their mischievous .diligence, and re newing their attempts at insurrection and con fusion. At .Guimaracns (to the north-east of Oporto), and at several other 'places, the Apos tolical adversaries of freedom, who had for a short time ceased from their machinations in the hope that their work would be done for them by the Princess Regent, have recommenced their attacks on public order by declaring the Infant a King, while he professes to be only the King's Lieutenant, and proclaiming him absolute, while he swears that he is constitutional. The Mi nistry have issued a circular, calling upon the authorities to suppress these disorders, and if they are sincere in their professiOns, there is no doubt that they can be easily suppressed. These insurrectionary parties have either begun their operations too early or to late ; for if they cal culated on the concurrence of the Prince, they are premature in disclosing their sentiments, as be cannot yet aid them ; and if on his oppo sition, they have passed the time of overwhelm ing him by their professions of exclusive loyalty, as the constitutional part of the nation are now prepared to Support his cause. Every thing that we hear gives us rea son to believe that some new direction bas been given to the mind of the Prince, or that care has been taken to surround him with such checks, and to bind him by such engagements, as to re move our apprehensions of an immediate assault upon the new institutions of his • country. The real security of the Portuguese people, and the truest interests of the Prince himself, will be consulted by his passing through England on his way to Portugal, and his freeing himself, by the assistance of prudent councillors, from the sini ster influence which provoked his rebellion, and led to his exile. We observe that some of our Apostolical contemporaries are labouring hard to found on the present state of things in Portugal a proof that the expectations of the British Ministry have been disappointed, and the Object of their policy abandoned. The very re , turn of Don Miguel as Regent, instead of his perpetual exclusion' frbm the throne assumed as an • evidence 'of their defeat. Now though,' as we have uniformly stated, it would have been desirable to have intrusted the execution of the Charter to a Prince whose early conduct was more commendable, and whose early education was more liberal than that of Don Miguel, it unfortunately happened that the pre tensions of the Prince, were admitted and conse crated by his brother Don Pedro, in the very act which settled the succession in his daughter, and established the new institutions. The Bri tish Government could not legitimately resist, and never attempted to oppose, the settlement of the Regency. The Charter which accom panied it, and which never was suggeste d or sanctioned by us, led to insurrectionary move - ments, with which we likewise abstained from interfering. But when the rebels crossed the frontiers of Spain, and returned with Spa nish arms to attack their own country, we interfered at the catt--ofthe Portuguese Govern ment—not to protect the Charter against the pretensions of Don Miguel, whom his brother had designed as the future Sovereign—but to se cure the country of our ally against foreign ag gression; It so happened that our troops, in lending their support to the Portuguese Govern ment, likewise supported the Emperor's Institu tions; but that was only a fortunate accident, as we must have acted in the same way towards Portugal, though ruled by the institutions of Al giers. • It never having been attempted to ex clude Don Miguel from the Regency, it requires a good deal of assurance to emblazon his return, under his brother's sanction, and his acquiescence in his brother's decrees, as a defeat of British policy. Whatever may be'the early proceedings of the new Regent, they are , not likely to make the friends of liberty regret much the chan ge of their pretent system. General Stubby, if we can trust our correspondent's information, is to ins dergo a second -trial, for an imaginary offence, which ought to have subjected him to no trial at all. 'lbis is the work of the Government of Lisbon, and it would not surprise us to hear, a few packets hence, that he was made a Count or a Marquis by a decree from Brazil. The Minister of War, Saldanha, in whose cause he incurred the Princess Regent's displeasure, and who him self was suspected of high treason, has received a title of Nobility from the Emperor, who seems to insist upon governing Portugal at the distance of six thousand miles. It is time that, by a steady domestic Government, such absurdities should cease.—Times. accusations drought wish- Mr. Burgess has just-published a Memorial, addressed to Lord 'Goderich, " on the fitness of the System of the Bank of England, of the Country Banks, and of the Branch Banks of England, to the wants of the People ; an d on ill-founded, we are disposed the ample means of protection which private okstof of E n g. the l England." a l .' c ' e Bankers and the Public have, against the mono.- iarougll e ; ing to undervalue the services. rendered by against them were very coun try bankers to 'the industrious classes, and b Ipivlying of that le a t ' : to think that matters wo uld ' not be very much mended by running down the Bank of England in turn.

As Mr. Burgess possesses much va luable knowledge .of the manner in which the business ofthis great country is carried on, it is hardly possible that a pamphlet from him should not contain information on that subject. The following account of the manner in which busi ness was, till a comparatively recent period, car ried on in the great manufacturing districts, is very curious :—" The present constitution of so ciety (he observes) renders the borrowing of money from the rich, on interest, and lending it to the necessitous, so natural and urgent, that it was carried on for a long period chiefly by s er i, 'yellers ; incumbered with all the expences, d e .: lays, technicalities, and formalities of law. N o effort of human wisdom could devise a licheme, better adapted to its purpose than that of est A . Country Banks, to take the spare mon e y of the wealthy, on interest, and lend it to men of industry in the vicinity; securing, in a manner. the most easy and efficacious, advantages in com mon to those who labour, and filo.se who, by their savings, can rest from labour.
