BARKER and BRIDGE, Plaintiffs' Solicitors, 50, Mark-lane, London. Dated the 14:h day of March, 1834. FOREIGN WHEAT. The highest quotation of white wheat of the first qua lity at Hamburg is 100 rixdollars current per last, which answers to 325. 2d. the English quarter of eight bushels imperial measure; and the highest quotation of red wheat of the first quality at Hamburg is 95 rixdollars current per last, which answers to 30s. 7d. the quarter, and therefore the mesn price at Hamburg of white and red wheat together is 31s sd. the quarter. The highest quotation of white wheat in Mark-lane is 595. the quarter, and the highest quotation of red wheat is 535. the quarter, and therefore the mean price in Mark-lane of white and red wheat together is 565. the quarter. It appears, therefore, that with the sum of 21. 16s. a man may buy 14i bushels of wheat at El itriburg, whereas, with the same sum, he can buy only eight bushels in London. The highest quotation of Zealand white wheat of the first quality at Amsterdam is 205 florins per last, which answers to 335. the quarter, and the mean price of wheat in Mark-lane being 565. the quarter, it follows, that with the sum of 21. 16s. a man may buy 131 bushels of wheat at Amsterdam, whereas with the same sum he can buy only eight bushels in London. The highest quotation of red wheat of the first quality at Antwerp is 8 florins current per hectolitre, which equals 3Ss. 3d. the quarter, and the highest quotation of red wheat in Mark-lane being 535. the quarter, it follows that with the sum of 21. 16s. a man any buy 124 bushels of wheat at Antwerp, whereas with the same sum he can buy only 8 bushels in London. '1 he highest quotation of red wheat of the first quality at Stettin is 38 dollars cur rent per wispel of 24 Behar's, which is equivalent to 265. the quarter, and the highest quotation of red wheat in Mark-lane being 535. the quarter, it follows that with the sum of 21. 13s. a man may buy 164 bushels of wheat at Stettin, whereas with the same sum he can buy only bushels in London. The mean or average of the prices of wheat of the first quality at Hamburg, Amsterdam, Antwerp, and Stettin, is 30s. I Id. the quarter, and the mean price of wheat of the first quality in London being 661. the quar ter, it follows that the mean price of wheat in London is SI per cent. higher than the mean price of the four above mentioned places. The present duty on the importation of foreign wheat into England is 335. Sd. the quarter, which is equal to the following rates :—to a rate of 1231. Is. 6d. per cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Hamburg ; to a rate of 1171. 3s. 6d. per cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Amsterdam ; to a rate of 1161. ss. 10d. per cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Antwerp ; to a rate of 148/. 14s. 4d. per cent. on the prime cost of wheat at Stettin ; and to a rate of 125/. is. 4d. per cent. on the mean price of wheat at the four abovementioned places. WESTMINSTER NEW PRISON.—This struc ture is now completed, and will shortly be in a state for the reception of its wretched inmates. In the mean time it is well worthy of public inspection, and will be found to embrace an almost perfect specimen of all that a buil.ting of this description can comprise. 'Whether so enormous an outlay for such a purpose in an obscure outskirt of the metropolis has been a matter of prudence, is altogether another questions A few days ago, a woman of very parsimo nious habits, named Mary Whitehead, died at this place. She had no known relations, and was supposed, from her style of living, to be in very narrow cirettinst inces. On her deathbed she sent for a neighbaur, through whom a highly respectable professional gentleman was called in ; and, though she scarcely allowed herself the necessaries of li'e, he found in the house upwards of 6001. in money ! Amongst the property were some notes of Pease and Lid dell's bank, issued in 1815, quite clean and new in ap pearance, evidently having clever been in circulation, The deceased had been an annuitant of the corporation since 1800 ; and, except in two or three instances, invariably applied to the town's husband for her annuity, half-}early, on the day it was due, always complaining of poverty, anti asking for Pease and Liddell's notes,....kfu/1 Packet. This was an appeal from a decree of the Master of the Rolls. The plaintiff is Mr. Albany Saville, and the de fentlant, his sister, Mrs. Taylor, represented by the Mar quis of Salisbury and others, who are the trusties under the marriage settlement of her mother. By that settle ment certain freehold property, together with 5,0001. three per cents., were settled on Mrs. Saville, then Mrs. Atkinson, with a power of appointment in favour of such of her children as she thought proper; and, in the event of he 7 not appointing, to the children generally. Mrs. Saville. died without exercising her power of appoinim nt, leaving a son, Mr. Albany Saville, and two daughters, Ails. Jackson and Mrs. Taylor, to whom on their mar ri ige Mr. Saville, the father, made a settlement to the amount of 50,0001. Forgetting, or being ignorant of the existence of, the power of appointment in the marriage settlement, which in fact gave him but a life interest in both the tuded and funded property, he made over the Holme Estate to a Mr. Farrell, and disposed of the divident's of the 5,000/. as a yearly gift to the governess of his daughters, in compliance with the dying request of his wife. I 1817 the marline settlement was discovered by accident in the office of his father-in•law's solicitor, and being a man of business, he at once proceeded to remedy the defect in Mr. Farrell's title to the Holme Estate, by prevailing otshis children to join him in cutting off the entail. Some time after this he made an additional settlement of 15.0001. on his daughters, 10,0001. to Mrs. Jackson, and 5,0001. to Mrs. Taylor, but without stating that it was intended to be in lieu of the 5,0001. to which they were entitled in right of their mother. The question now was, whether this settlement was so intended. The Master of the Rolls bad decided that it was ; but his Lordship declared it to be his opinion that, as far as Mrs. Taylor is concerned, it appeared not to be so intended: and he therefore revered his Honour's decree, and directed tlat Mrs. Taylor should be paid her third of the 5,0001., with the accumulated interest. From the circumstances of the case he said nothing with respect to her costs. CLIFTON V. COCKBURN. This case, which came before his Lordship during last week on the question of costs, was to-day decided by his Lordship, who, under its peculiar circumstances, was of opinion that the minority interest fund, with its consi derable accumulations, ought to bear the expenses of both the parties.

The John Stewart, Williamson, of 350 tons, from De merara to London, was lost on the Goblet's Rock, off the windward side of B trbadoes, on January 17, with a cargo consisting of 556 hogsheads, three tierces, and 31 barrels of sugar; 100 puncheons and ten hogsheads of rum. She had been four days out from Demerara, and was driven by fresh bretzes, thick weather, and strong currents upon the same spot where, during the two preceding years, three other ships had been lost, viz., the Wanderer transport, with 250 troops, all stved, but vessel lost; the Paragon, from Demerara to Glasgow, total loss; and the Isabel, from Demerara to Liverpool, cargo partly lost, and a heavy expense incurred. The Government, or the authorities in that island, ought to erect a lightbou.e for the protection of ships bound to or passing by Barbadoes, as the currents vary so much in their direction and strength as to perplex the most experienced navigator.

GREENWICH PARK.—In consequence of orders issued by the Surveyor of the Royal Ooservatory and others having authority in Greenwich Park, a new path has been made up the hill, by which the public may ascend the heights with more ease, and avoid the danger of falling upon the broken precipitous ground. The fine slope of grass forming the hill upon which the holiday folks enjoy their Easter and Whitsuntide races has been improved by filling up the boles and irrrgularitieg, the cause on many occasions of broken legs and alms. A new oak bench has been placed ,igainst the external wall of the observatory, on the apex of the mount. At this point the visiter may now, from a convenient seat, enjoy the beautiful prospect so universally admired. Mr. POLLOCK stated the case. The plaintiff, Charlotte Pickup was a straw bonnet-maker at Bolton she had formerly lived at Preston, having been induced to remove on account of higher wages. Her acquaintance with the defendant began in April, 1828. He paid her such at tentions as could not be mistaken, promised her marriage, and named a period when the event should rake place; but lie assigned various reasons for putting off the mar riage from time, to time. The defendant was a stone mason, and owner of several cottages. The plaintiff, as the learned counsel had stated, had no property whatever, but the defendant. after the last parting, and when he had repeated his promise, and when she imagined that she was soon to be his wife, had the mortification of Learing that he had married another. Ellen Pickup—l am sister to the plaintiff, and know the defendant James Fitchie, and have been acquainted with him 'about six years. He was formerly a working stone mason, and now he is in business on his own account. He first became acquainted with my sister Charlotte in April, 1828. My sister was a teacher at Gritnshaw street Cis tpel, in Preston, where the defendant some times went, and the acquaintance commenced there. tie frequently followed my sister and me home, and wished us to walk with him, but we did not think it proper to do so on leaving the chapel.—(Loud laughter.) He worked opposite to our house, and sometimes he came in for a light, and got acquainted that way. My father is in a cotton factory. My sister re ceived the defendant's addresses. In April his brother David was building a shop, and he said that as soon as the shop was finished he would marry my sister and begin pawnbroking.—(Laughter.) He said he then had only 2001., and his brother was not willing to advance any, and said it would take• 4001. or HO/. In 1829 my sister went to a situation at Kirkham as straw bonnet-maker, and when she came over to my father's, the defendant came to see her. On Shrove-Tuesday, 1829, the de fendant said to me, he intended to marry my sister as soon as her busy time wes over. As she had got a pod situa • tion he would let her stay. I remember the defendant going to Scotland, and on his return in January, 1830, he came the first thing to see my sister, and said he had teen looking at a public house. He came spin on Friday, and said he had got a fresh lodging, and had got board, washing, and lodging for five shillings, from a Airs. Mak, but he would give her six sl illings.—(Lau4hter.) Mr. PoLtocs—ls the defendant in Court?—Yts. M. POLLOCK —Where is he?—He is here. Mr. POLLOCK—Point him out. Air. ALEXANDER—Stand up, Mr. Fitebie ; get on the seat The defendant here mounted " the stool," amidst bursts of laughter from all parts of the Court, his Lordship join ing heartily in the merriment. The defendant was rather meanly dressed, and certainly both in figure and face he appeared to be any thing but the lady-killing giy deceiver which people would be apt to suppose the subject of an action for a breach of promise of marriage to be. As soon as the laughter bad subsided the tvitnes , continued:— I remember, in the summer of 1832, that the defendant was at my house in Bolton. My sister was there, and was reading a letter. My sister had her bag in her hand, and four or fiveletters were in it, from the defendant. He t9ok out the letters, one by one, and put them in the grate and burned them. My sister tried to save them, but he held her back. Cross•exawined by Mr. ALEXANDER—I am a straw bonnet maker, and we have a house of our own. In summer we can make I Is. or 12s. per week. In winter 6s. or 7s. The . defendatit had come sometimes for a light, six months before the promise of marriage. Counsel—Coming for one light it happened that he caught another flame?—Yes, I suppose so.—(Laughter.) My sister was very religious, and very particular at the time that the defendant wanted her to walk coming home from chapel, and she would not allow him. She was not taken with him then.—(Laughter.) Counsel—Why I confess be's not a very taking person. age.—(Loud laughter.) My sister is at present out of em, plmm,nr, but she has a situation to go to. Mr. ALEXANDER, for the defendant, acknowledged that a vend ct must go against the defendant; but, under the circumstances, the damages, he submitted, could not be large. Mr. POLLOCK asked was he not entitled to a reply, as his learned friend Mr. Alexander had produced the de fendant himselt in evidence ?—(Laughter.) Mr. Justice ALDERSON —He has been put in as a set off.—(Continued laughter.) His lordship shortly sum• med up. Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 2001. OXFORD CIRCUIT—STAFFORD, 111.11 cm 13. (Before Mr. Justice PARK. ) Catherine Clewes, a girl aged 21, having the appear ance of a respectable servant, was charged with adminis tering oil of vimol to her infant, named Francis Clewss, with intent to murder him. Jane Simpkins said the prisoner came to her house, near Walsall, on Whit Sunday, with a child seven weeks old. She said she was sent by the overseer to ask me to tike care of the child. I asked if she had a note from him. She said she bad not; but I said she might leave the child with me till she could get a note. She left the child, and came with a note on the following Tuesday. She seemed much vexed. She never came again till the 18th of October. I told her 1 thought she bad forgotten her child. She said she could not come eailier, as she was in service. She brought two caps and two frocks for the child, and was sewing for it till eleven o'clock. She said she did not think the child would live, it had such a way of turning its eyes up. I Cold her I thought it likely to live. Site staid at my house all night, and the prisoner, the ehild, and myself, all slept together. I got up first in the morning, and went to a neighbour's house on an errand. I stayed a quarter of an hour, and heard the child shriek. I called our, " What's the matter ?" The prisoner made no en swer, and I went up to the bed, and found the baby struggling for breath, frothing at the mouth, and was as black in the face as a coal. I said, " What ails the child ? You have been doing something to the child I" I took the child from her, and examined it. The neck of the child was black and purple where she had been throttling it. The left cheek was very badly burnt, as were the left hand and shoulder, and the tongue was all of a blister. Examined by the Leaned JUDGE—The prisoner, when she came down stairs, was crying very much. Harriett Bullock, the next witness, brought the child into court. It wis a remarkably pretty child, and on seeing it the prisoner burst into tears. This witness said —On the 19th of October, I went to the house of the last witness. 1 saw Jane Simpkins searching in the prisoner's hair and bosom. I felt her shoes, and in her left stocking, which she had on, I found a botle which had no cork in it. The bottle was given to Mr. Binfield. The bottle was nearly full. It was a phial. I afterwards found the cork. James Franklin said—l received the bottle, which bad some dark stuff in it. It was labelled "oil of vitriol." The prisoner, in her defence, said—l never meant to hurt the child, and I have not a friend to speak fur me. Verdict—Not Guilty. Daniel Bindley, a rather pale•looking and thin young man, of small stature and mild expression of countenance, was charged with having stabbed Sarah Preston, with in tent to do her some grievous bodily harm. Sarah Preston, a very fine young woman, of about 25 years of age, said—l am servant at Mr. Aston's. at Rose hill. I was going to Birmingham on the Sunday af'e: Christmas, at about 1 l o'clock. On going down Soho hill I saw the prisoner, who was coming towards me. As he passed me be stabbed me on the right thigh. When I felt myself stabbed I turned round and looked at him. He .had in his hand something, the handle of which was like that of a email table knife. The wound gave me a good deal of pain, but I did not examine it till 1 gut to my master's the next evening. I had never seen the pri soner before that I am aware of, and nothing had passed between us belore he stabbed me. I ant quite sure the prisoner is the person. Mrs. Elizabeth Walton said—l am a widow. On the Sunday after Christmas I was going to Handswottli church. 1 met the prisoner. I am quite sure that be is the man. I endeavoured to avoid him, but he ran against me. I bad met bim once before, and Ito bad struck me TI - e case was clearly made out. Verdict—Guilty. Sentence, transportation for He. Mrs. Pugh, who appeared to be a most respectable per son, beped to recommend the prisoner to mercy. Ale. Justice PARK—The sentence is fixed by the Act of Parliament, and I have not the smallest discretion as to it.s mitigation. Since I have been in this town, I have learned that his M..jery's Government intend in all these cases to carry the full sentence of transportation into effect, however strong the recommendations to mercy may be that are forwarded by the Learned Judges. LWe make no doubt that the Government have some •etson for this arrangement, but it does s‘em at first sight to be in the highest degree absurd.] Willram Costello, aged 41, Patrick Costello, his son, aged 20, Catherine Costello, his wife, aged 44, and James Carrick were charged with cutting Willi im \Vora dale, with intent to murder him. Mr. Justice PARK summed up the evidenCe. The Jury found the prisoners William and Radek Costello both Guilty. Mr. Justice PARK passed sentence of death upon them, without giving them the slightest hope of mercy. NORFOLK CIRCUIT.— CAMBRIDGE, Milteß 14. (Ref ire Lon/ Chief Ju.tive DENMAN.) STEWART. ESQ. V CHAPS', D.D. This was an action of trespass and false imprisonment, to which the plea was the general issue, not guilty. Mr. Sergeant STORKS stated the plates case. The plaintiff is a gentleman of fortune and family, who came comparatively late in life to the University, having, before h:s admission at Jesus College, of which he is a fellow. commoner, been an extensive traveller. The defend ,nt, the Rev. Dr. Chafe, is master of Sidney College, a ma gistrate, and a man of considerable wealth. On the 3,1 of August last Mr. Cannon, a most respectable attorney in the town, received a letter from London, which obliged him to hold a personal communication with a son of the defendant, and accordingly on that day Mr. Cannon called at Sidney.lodge to see him, but was unable to find him within. He called a second time, but was again unsuc cessful. In the afternoon of that day he called on the plaintiff, and asked him to accompany hint in a walk, they being on intimate terms of friendship. The plaintiff consented, and their way lying past Sidney, Mr. Cannon went into the college, and immediately joined the plaintiff, who was waiting for bim in the court of the college. Having turned to leave the college, they saw the defendant and the Rev. Mr. Henson standing on the grass.plat in the court, at the same time that one Peacock, the college shoeblack, came to them and told them that the master desired to know who they were and what they wanted. The plaintiff mildly answered, " Ob, its of no con sequence," and be and Mr. Cannon were in the act of leaving the college, when the defendant inter cepted them, and asked them, in a haughty and imperious tone, " Who are you ? What do you want bete? I will know who you are, and what you want, before you leave the college." Mr. Cannon replied, " This is most extraordinary conduct," when the defend. ant, in a furious manner, answered, "I am master of these territories," and called out to the porter " Shut the gates and send for a constable, and I will send these men to prison." In a few minutes a constable of the name of Bennett arrived, and the defendant said to him, "I give these men in charge." Mr. Cannon requested the defend ant to tell him what the charge against them was; to which he replied, " I charge you with refusing to tell me 'sho you are." The next thing that occurred was the de fendant's saying, " You are two suspicious characters." To this Mr. Cannon replied " Indeed !" when the defend ant shouted out " Stupid fool ;" standing at the same time dose to Mr. Cannon, thrusting out his tongue at him. Shortly after this the defendant retired into the lodge, leaving the two gentlemen in the custody of the constable, and the gates locked. This statement was proved by Mr. Cannon, and by the testimony of other persons, who were witnesses to parts of the occurrence. Mr. ANDREWS addressed the jury for the defendant. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE summed up. The plaintiff was entitled to a verdict, for the defendant had acted with out any warrant of law, and with a degree of violence which be had seldom seen exceeded. His Lordship could not at all agree that the master of a college had a right to turn out, much less to shut in the college, any person who might enter it on lawful business: The jury found for the plaintiff—Damages 25/. A verdict was also taken by consent in another action a a nst Dr. Chafy at the suit of another plaintiff, for the like sum. (Before Mr. Baron VAUGHAN.) John Coe was indicted for feloniously administering a drug called saffron to one Henrietta Freeman, for the purpose of procuring a miscarriage. The prosecutrix, who was only sixteen years old in February, was servant to Mr. Bennett, and being found to he with child she was dismissed. The prisoner was the father of the child of which she was pregnant, and upon her telling him that she was so, he replied that he would give her some stuff to make her "unwell" as she ought to be. She told him she would take anything he gave her if it did not hurt herself, and he gave her something which lie told her to put into some boiling water and drink off. She accordingly did so, and in a short time she was unwell, and a miscarriage followed. The Jury having found the prisoner Guilty, he was sentenced to seven years taansportation. THE REV. JOHN WESLEY'S OPINION ON THE UNION OF CHURCH AND STATE.—(From a Sermon " 01 Former Times.")—" One eminent author, no less a man than Dr. Newton, the late Bishop of Bristol, has been at no small pains to show that the conversion of Constantine to Christianity, and the emoluments which he bestowed upon the church with an unsparing hand, were the events which are signified in the Revelation, by the New Jerusalem coming down from heaven !' But I cannot in anywise subscribe to the bishop's opinion in this matter. So far from it, I have been long convinced from the whole tenor of Ancient History, that this very event,—Constantine's calling himself a Christian, and pouring that flood of wealth and honour on the Chrivian Church, the clergy in particular,—was productive of more evil to the church than all the ten persecutions put toge ther. From the tittle that power, riches, and honour, of all kinds were heaped upon the Christians, vice of all kinds came in like a flood, both on the clergy and laity. From the time that the church and state, the kingdoms of Christ and of the world, were so strangely and unnt turilly blended together, Christianity and Heathenism were so thoroughly incorporated with each other, that they will hardly ever be divid,d till Christ comes to reign on earth. So that, instead of fancying that the glory ..f the New Jerusalem covered the earth at that period, we have terrible proof that it was then, and has ever since been, covered with the smoke o I the bottomless pit." MODIFICATION OF SLEEP.—SIeep is much modified by habit. Thus, an old artillery-man often enjoys tninquil repose, while the cannon are thundering around him ; an engineer has been known to fall asleep within a boiler, while the ellows were beating i on the outsme with their ponnerous hammers ; and the repose of a mil ler is nowise incommoded by the noise of his mill.

For the same reason, the manager of some vast iron-wot km, who slept close to them, amid the ineessan. din of hammers, forges, and blast fur naces, would awake if there was any cessation of the noise luring the night. To carry the illustration still farther, it has been noticed, that person who falls asleep near a church, the hell of which is ringing, may hear the sound during the whole of his slumber, and be nevi Witless aroused by its sudden cessation. Here the skip must have been imperfect, otherwise he would have be, t, insen sible to the sound ; the noise of the belt was no stimulus; it was its cessation which, by breakiiig the °cony, became so, and caused the sleeper to aw:ke.—/11,,chisfe4 Philosophy of Sleep, pp. SO, I.
