THE SUN, LON DON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER._ 14 1856 0 17: E MARKET TR AR re AR STS K VS. - . • LAUFANC li, ',AUL IV • IN Closing Prioo, yesterday. IStialnaaa done thia day Two • The Liverpool C ton Miiket yesterday closed quietly lily firmly, ;.rFI comp trf.d with last week the prizes of Answricans were evrerne, but all other sorts were without al eration. The sales amounted to hetwe.n 1,1100 and 8,000 hales, 1,000 of which were taken for export. The Railway Share Market opened with a steady as p ec t, but after the announcement that the Bank of England had raised the rate of discount a reaction took place. The market subsequently closed, however, at its best point. Nvta. •Tw2is .

At Breslau the finer qualities of Polish wool, and Russian combing ditto, have been in demand at full quotations, ranging 86 to 90 thalers per centner for the former, and 67 to 78 dialers for the later ; while superior ditto, for cloths, realises 100 to 102 thalers. On the ether hand, Silesian wools have been little sought after, excepting some lots of lambs' wool. At Berlin the stocks of Mecklenburg and Pomeranian wools were larger than usual, and the demand limited. The prices for Mecklenburg and Pomeranian are 78 to 82 thalers per quintal, and Russian about 70 thalers ; quotations nominal. Acc , mnts re ceived from London of the public sales held here have tended to strengthen prices in Germany, and many of the manufacturers, who were limiting their purchases to their immediate requirements in the expectation of a reduction in the prices soon, are now laying in their stocks at the ruling prices. The C 'louial Produce M .rkets this week have been qu;et, but in one or two of the princip 1 staples the dealiega have been numerous, at full prices. For sugnr there has been a brisk inquiry, and particular descriptions have realised an advance of 6d. to ls. per cwt. In the early part of the week there was a good demand for coffee at previ ous rates, but since then plantation Ceylon has been sold at rather lower quotations. 0 , -coa has risen about 61. per cwt. Rice has been firm, and tea quiet, without change in value. A specu- lative business has been transacted in saltp 3tre, and an advance of 24. to 3s. per cwt. has occurred. For ► spices the market has not been active. Cassia lignea has declined 3s. per cwt. Pimento has been steady, and an increased inquiry has existed for pepper. The tallow market has been supported. The public sales of colonial wool have progressed with firmness, and the attendance of buyers during the past week has been large. it Do. A 8 Do. B DubiindtßelfastJurc all Dun. P. As A -, •Jnc.

Ii shows that the advances on stock and railway shares have been .much reduced by the measure of restriction recently adop.ed. The dis count business of the establishment has also dimitiish~ d, and the additienal amount paid as premiums n the purchase of geld is not very heavy. The other iteais of the balance- Sheet are also more encouraging, which has in some measure mitigated the apprehension aroused by the advance effected in the rate of discount at the Bank df England. The demand for accommodi tion is less active, but the requirements of the commercial community are still very large. The allowance for deposits "on call" has been increased from 5 to 6 per cent. In the market for English Stocks this morning very little change has occurred, but a firmer tone prevails, although the dealings are limited. Rather more firmness has been produced by the Bank of France Return, but the uncertain aspect of monetary affairs checks lam.

(Sittings in Banco, before Lord Chief Justice Campbell, Mr. Justie-a Coleridge, Wightmaa, and Erle.) THE G 'LEI BULLION ROBBERY.-SPIELMAN V. THE BOIITH EASTERN RAILWAY COMPANY. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to reoover of the defendant, the South Eastern Railway Company, the value of certain clupons abstracted from the boxes with the gold when robbed in transit on this line in May, 1855, and which is now under investigation at the Mansion-house, and to-day the question came before their lordships on cross demurrers as to the liabilities of the defendants for the value of the couponr, which, at the time of transit, were not declared nor insurance paid on them. The question was one turning on the con struction of the clauses of the Carriers' Protection Act. The court took time to consider the point. COURT OF EXCHEQUER. (Sittings in Banco, before the Lord Chief Baron, Mr. Baron Alderson, Mr. Baron Bramwell, and Mr. Baron Watson.) EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY ♦. RANSOMS AND ANOTHER. • Mr. Jones applied for a rule nisi to set aside the ver diet in this case, and a new trial had. The trial came on at Guildhall, on Wednesday last, before Baron Mar tin, when the defendants not appearing, a verdict was recorded for the plaintiffs for 4771. 165. 51. An appli cation was made to Mr. Baron Martin in Chambers to grant a special jory in this case, but he refused, and the defendants, feeling aggrieved, applied to the learned Baron, on Wednesday, to postpone the trial, bat he re• fused ; and, in consequence the defendants withdrew and allowed a verdict to pass against them, relying on an application to this Court for a new trial, and the granting a special jury. The question in dispute was the rate of tollage en the Eastern C. , unties line, the defendants objecting to pay a toll of 2d. for goods while Messrs. Prior, coal merchants, for similar articles pay but id. The defen dants were ready to pay the amount claimed by the company into court, to abide the result of the appli cation. Rule granted on the defendants paying the amount within two days into court. SAME V. MANN AND ANOTHER. This was a similar application, in which the Court granted a rule, on the defendants paying 6001., the amount claimed of them by the plaintiffs, into court within two days.

The plaintiff in this action is a brewer, and sought to recover 2001. from the defendant, who is also of the same trade. It appeared that in 1852 the plaintiff en tered the defendant's employ as a brewer, &c., and to superintend his brewery, at a salary of '2/. per week, depositing in their j nut name-, 2001. in a bank as security for his integrity. In October, 1855, the plain tiff left the defendant, set led his accounts, and handed aver to him 591. 2s. 103. the balance, and then asked for the defendant's signature to the joint deposit-note to draw the 2001., but the defendant made some excuses and put the plaintiff off. In October, 1855, the defendant recommended the plaintiff to Mr. Payne, hrewer, of Del by, and the plaintiff wanting his money pressed the defendant to sign the note. The defendant however, declined to sign it, and in March, 1856, wrote a le:Err to the plaintiff, in which he charged him with gross mismanagement (luring the time he was in his employ, and stating al•o that he had discovered deficiencies and overcharges in the plaintiff's accounts amounting to 551. 10s., and that on his paying him that amount he would sign the deport note for the repay. went of the 2001. The case was referred. CITY SHERIFF'S COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) HALL V. BURGESS. THE EVILS OF LOAN SOCIETIES.—This was an action to r , oeive a balance due on a promiEwory note for money let by a loan society. Defendant said that, although be was the borrower of the money, it was handed over to the surety, whom the society ought to have sued. His Honour said this was part of a system of fraud on the part of loan societies ; there was every inducement and temptation held out to induce people to borrow, no matter who, and that led people to take all advantages. Societies held out prospects of wonderful advantages. L• , an ' societies and great advantages was advertised in every way and pasted on the walls, and, in fact, were as great evils as gin palaces. Plaintiff said that he did not know who the money was for. His Honour—You all know very well that the surety in one society is the borrower at another, but, after ail, the loan societies take care of themselves. Au order was made for payment at U. a month. GOODWIN V. PLANA.GAN. TRESPASS.—This was an act►on for illegally breaking and entering plaintiff's apartment, seizing her goods and expelling the plaintiff. Mr Buchanan stated the case for the plaintiff, who is a poer woman, residing in Three Tun.court, Red-cross street, and on the 12th of September the defendant, who was the landlord, got into the place and took her goods, and on going afterwards he knocked her down. He was charged with the assault, but the alderman advised the parties to settle the debt, defendant giving up rent which he claimed, and also the goods; but having failed to do so, plaintiff now sought to recover damages. Mr. Buchanan said that it appeared to him to be such a bard and cruel case, and the woman was so des titute, her husband being at sea, that he had taken the case in hand, and had paid the fees. His Honour said he could not go into the question of assault, as that had already been bef,,re a magistrate, and he thought now that it would be better that some arrangement should be come to. After some discussion it was agreed that no rent should be claimed, that the goods should be given up, and defendant pa) 30. i. as damages. Mr. Davie', for defendant, said that this should be carried into effect, and not be set aside as the previous one had bee's. Hic honour said it was the order of the Court.

CRUELTY TO A HtORSE.-CAUTION TO HOUSEKEEPERS. —Mr. PryneQs, the superintendent of the Royal Siciety for the Prevention , of Cruelty to Animals, attended be fore the magistrate to prefer a charge against Philip Kelly, horsekeeper to Air Reddin, the dust contractor of Bankeide, for sending a horse out in an unfit state for work. In answer to the charge, the defendant said that when he sent Maynard out. with the horse he was not aware that the fetlock was so bad. He would, however, be more careful for the 'iuture. His Worship told him his was a very bad excuse. He must have been acquainted with the state of the horse when he sent it out.. He was sure that Mr. Reddin did not approve of his conduct, and as a caution to him for the future he should fine him 10s. and costs, and in default of payment commit him to the House of Correa tion for fourteen days. THAINIgS, DIST/MIRING CASE.—SLOP WoRKING.— Elizabeth Collis, a b valid looking woman with a child in her arms, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with illegally pawning the materials for 8 shirts entrusted to her to make up by a Jew named Alexander Abrahams, a " shirt factor," of No. 31, New-road, Whited:lapel. The prosecutor, who entered the witness-box in great haste, said that he entrusted the prisoner with the ma terial of 8 shirts to be made up. She had not returned them, and he discovered they were pawned. Last night he gave the prisoner into custody. William 13 ,- mty, No. 73 If, said he took the prisoner into custody in Capel street, %V hitecbapel, in the prose cutor's shop. The prisoner said it he went borne with her she would give up the tickets of the materials, and did so. Another woman gave him three other duplicates, relating to shirts which had been pawned. The prisoner said she pawned the goods because she was in distress. Mr. Yardley said the prosecutor gave hie evidence in a very jaunty manner, and in a way that he did not like at all. Ho wi.4lied that pawnbrokers would not take in slop work of the poor and wretched women in trusted with materials. An immense deal of misery was caused by the practice. He would advise the prisoner to see her husband, and ask him to redeem th' shirts from the pawnbrokers, and there would be an end of the matter. The prisoner said her husband was quite unable to do so, and was very poor. _ . Mr. Yardley said he should remand the prisoner until to-morrow, when the case must be completed. He asked .he age of the prisoner's child. Roche, the gaoler—She says it is 18 months old. It still sucking at the breast. Mr. Yardley—l must order that child to be taken from you. I don't know what the consequences may be, but I am compelled by the rules and regulations of the prison you are going to to take it from you. The prisoner begged that she might not be deprived of her infant. Mr. Yardley—ls there any one here who will take care of it / The Pi isoner —No, sir. Mr. Yardley—The police constable must convey the child to the workhouse. The child having been taken from the prisoner she was locked up in the cell of the police court. Half an hour afterwards Mr. Livingston, the chief usher, said all the shirts had been restored to the prosecutor by the pawnbroker, and Mr. Yardley ordered the prisoner t• be discharged. MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.) CORN EXCHANGE. Rather increased supplies of English wheat have been reseived up to our market this week coastwise; but the show of samples in to-day's market was very moderate. For all kinds we had a dull inquiry, and Monday's prices were with difficulty supported. Over 30,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come to hand this week. There was scarcely any demand for this article, the value of which was almost nominal. The barley trade ruled heavy, at Monday's currency. The malt trade was very dull, and prices had a down ward tendency. Fine old oats sold slowly, at late rates ; but new quali ties were very dull, and quite 6d per qr lower. Beans, peas, and flour were unaltered in value. ARRIVALS THIS WINK. 6 0 3 b e r 1: : Wheat. Barley. Malt. I Osts. Flour.

His youngest sister, the Princess Cecilia, who is hardly 17 years of age, is going to be varried to the Grand Duke Michael, brother t o the Emperor of Russia, Alex ander 11., and she has been already betrothed to him. The Grand Duke Michael is the youngest son of the Emperor Nicholas, and the only one not married. Like his brothers, he takes his wife from a German house; these sorts of alliances have become habitual with the imperial Russian family, which is already united by strict bonds with the house of Prussia, the royal house •of Wurtemberg, an old and illustrious house, with different branches of the house of Saxony, with the houses of Iles. sia, Oldenburg, Mecklenburg, and Nassau. It is well known that the princes and princesses who marry into the imperial house of Russia, and have to reside in St. Petersburg, have to learn the Russian language and adopt the Greek Catholic religion. This condition obliges them to submit to a supplementary education. This is what the young Princess Cecilia of Baden is doing at this moment, and it is what retards her marriage. They wait until she has been sufficiently instructed to speak to the Russians in their national language and profess the national religion with a safe conscience. The Grand Duke Michael is 24 years old. The Doke of Ostrogothland, born on the 21st of Jan., 1829, is the second son of the reigning King of Sweden, the grandson accordingly of King John .Broadotte, a marshal of the French empire by the promotion of 1804. The Duke of Ostrogothland is about to marry the Princess SUpbia of Nassau, wh9 was born on the 9tb July, 1836. This princess is the youngest sister of Adolphus, the reigning Duke of Nassau, but Duke Adolphus and the Princess Sophia are not born of the same mother. By her mother, the Princess Sophia descended from the royal. house of Wurtemburg, and related to the imperial family of Russia. It is not the first time that the young dynasty of King Bernadotte has formed an alliance with the ancient house of Nassau. Prince Charles of Sweden, eldest son of King Oscar, Prince R 'pal, heir presumptive to the clowns of Sweden and Norway, mauled in .1850 the Princess Wilhelmina of Orange-Nassau, the daughter of Prince Fre lerick, uncle to Witham 111., the reigning King of the Netherlands.

The Princess Anne is 20, the Princess Margaret 14, the hereditary Prince of Tuscany 21, the Archduke Charles Lewis of Austria 23 The eldest sister of the two Princesses Anne anti Mar garet was married first to the Duke of Genoa, br ther of the King of Sardinia, by whom she bad two chit. dren. Having become a widow in the month of February, 1855, she has juss been married again to the Chevalier Rapallo, a captain of infantry in the Sardinian army, The Archduke Ferdinand of Tuscany, the future husband of the Princess Anne, is by his mo ther Marie Antoinette of B Jurbod, the grandam of the late Francis I , King of the Two Sicilies, nephew of the reigning King Ferdinand 11. of Naples, and grand nephew of the queen Marie-Arnelie, widow of Louis Philippe.

The Archduke Charles Lewis of Austria is also a very near relative of the royal house of Naples • his father, the .Archduke Francis Charles, who should have been Emperor of Austria in 1848. after the abdication of his elder brother, the Emperor Ferdi• nand, if he had not preferred renouncing the crown in favour of hia eldest son Francis Joseph—his father, we way, was the son of the Princess Maria Theresa of Na ples;sister to the Queen Marie Amehe.—Afbaes. - There is no truth in the paragraph whin% has beet going the round of the paper, alat.,,g that an attempt had been made on the life of Kiri Somers by his valet.

The German pa?ers have been lately informing us of marriages, either solemnised or in preparation, between princ es an d princesses of the sovereign houses of Europe. Lately, at Madrid, the Infanta Amelia was wedded to Prince Adalbert of Bavaria ; sbmewhat later, the Prin cess Louisa of Prussia • the day before yesterday the Archduke Chas, Lewis of Austria espoused, at Dresden, the Princess Margaret of Saxony. A few days ago the King of Sweden, o,c tr 1., communicated to the repre sentatives of the nation the approaching union of the Duke of Ostrogothland with a princess of Nassau. We have further announced to us the contemplated marriage of the Prince Frederick of Prussia with the Princess Victoria of England ; of the Prince Frederick of Tus cany with the Princess Anne of Saxony; and of the Grand Duke Michael of Russia with the Princess Cecilia of Baden. Thus within the space'of two months we have a total of seven marriages solemnised, or on the eve of soleinaisation, and officially announced, between per: aonages, ten of whom appertain to German dynasties, one to the Royal house of England, one to the imperial family of Russia, one to the new R o y a l family of Swe den, lastly ; one to a Spanish branch of the house t.f Bourbon. There has never perhaps been seen so, large a number of alliances contracted in so short an interval of time among the families of princes. The marriage of Prince Ala l berl of -Bavaria with the Infanta Amelia of Spain took place on the 26th August. This prince is the third brother °I King Maximilian 11. The king is married, and has two sons ; it is not likely, therefore, that Prince A,dalbert will ever be called upon to wear the crown of Bavaria, but it is possible that he may one day become the King of Greece, the throne df which is occupied at present by Kiag Otho, a prince of . Bavaria, yonnger brother of the King Maximilian, and the eldest of this King's three. broth&s. King Otho of Greece, now 41 3e-ars of age, has been married for 20 years to a princess of Oldenburg, by whom he has had nJ chil dren. This con ingekcy was provided for in the c inven tion of May 7,1832, which regulates the succession l o the throne of Greece, and which provides that, in the event of the king dying without issue, the crown of Greece should pass to Prince Luitpold of Bavaria, the younger brother of King Otho, awl t r Prince kialbert himself, were Prince Luitpold to die without offspring. Prince Luitpald is married and bas three sons. It is not then the want of posterity on the part of this prince that could open the eventual rights of Prince Adalbert. But Greece is a constantionai monarchy, and the constitution requires the successor of King Othe to profess the creek faith. Now, the princes of the house of Bavaria belong to the Roman Cathelio faith, and it does not appear that Prince Luitpold is disposed to submit, on this point, to what is prescribed by the constitution of Gree,e. Prince Adalbert, born in 1828, is 28 years old. The Infanta Amelia, born in 1834, has just entered her 23d year. She is the youngest daughter of the Infant Don Francisco di Pahl% the second brother of the late King Ferdinand VII. Tte eldest son of the Irfarat Don Francisco di Pablo married, in 1846, his cousin, Queen Isabella. By his mar riage with the Infanta Amelia, Prince Adalbert has be come brother-in-law to the King and Q wen of Spain. It was on the 9th September that the Grand Duke Frederick of Baden married the Princess Louisa of Prussia. This princess, 18 years old, is the daughter of Prince William, the Prince R•tyal of Prussia, brother of the reigning King and heir presumptive to the crown, since the King has no children. It is a great alliance for tt e Grand Duke Frederick. TTJ'i.,E. Kathie Brande; A Fire- s id e Hi s t ory o f a Q u i et PATH. ; Life. By Holme Lee, author of "Thorn.* charged with g.,11," "Gilbert Massenger.," &c, 2 vole. Railway, •c•as Smith and Eider. Magistrate of This forms an addition to those tales by the Isame author • which have attracted admiration, alike from the interest that dwells in their details , as from the superior style that characterises their I pages. They turn aside from the glitter .of gaiety, and the common-place careers, of the work-day world, to the contemplation of the inner life, the world within. Kathie Brande, in her qtiiet exist ence, possessed the germs of the g reat and good in her c h aracter, wh i ch develope themselves as circumstances of importance occurred. It is not probable that all will coincide with the reason which induced her to sacrifice her plans and yield up her hopes of happiness ; bat the cause which made her act is not so much to be considered as the spirit that prompted the resolve, and the coura g e that animat e d h er to the complet i on of the task. The motto of her life is thus described—" Say to all manner of happiness I can do without th ee ; with self-renunciation life begins." It was this feeling that inspired Kathie, anti she was satisfied in the relief her mother experienced in having her to fall back upon in the dreary hour of trial. As for the object attained, it is to be questioned if her brother at all deserved such treatment ' • and, in deed, if it was not an unwise thing to allow him to rely on 'home assistance, instead of being made to bear the consequences of his own ill-doings. H e expressed no gratitude for the great sacrifice, and aft.r a time actually deserted, his home. The childhood of Kathie Brande was a gloomy one ; she was delicate, and, being the eldest, cares and duties naturally devolved upon her. She lived another life in the dream land of her own young, fancies, wherein .slie saw pictured, as many an enthusiast before, the bright and beautiful of the ideal. These golden. visions did not, as is too often the case, unfit her for the stern realities of later years. She carried with her' their light and lustre engraven on her mind, ands: impressed on herb eart, theybeautifi e d the common' way of daily life, they brightened the, dark' gloom'' of human suffering, with a ray of more than earthly glory, while faint and shadowy in the distance at first, bUt growing more defined as the darkness be came visible, the bow of promise overspread her path. The murmurs of the far-off years of fancy died away, but in the stead of hope came faith, and she cherished the thought that she laid down the lesser for thegreater. While the young around her revelled in their spring of love, and shone in the bloom of their beauty, she was pining away in soli tude and suffering Yet the reaping promised to those who sow in tears must surely be for such as dedicate their spirits in theirfreshuess to the shrine of duty, and Kathie Braude was of these. The fireside history of a quiet life was not sheltered from storms ; only it was hidden from public gaze. With her overtasked mother, who sinks early under the burdens imposed, hel volatile sister Isabel who ruined her own happiness, her un worthy brother Stephen, the heroine had ehongh to bear. She gave up her peculiar plans, but she could not iu her own immediate domestic circle find an equivalent. in realised hopes. It required the prospect of a brighter day than had ever dawned even in the splendour of early imaginings to soothe her mind, when her dearly cherished parent had departed, one loved sister—gone: away to trouble of the most .painful kind, and the other also far from her. Then the care she had taken while they wore with her, 'to shield them from suffering was all that was left to light the waste and solitude of memory. Felix Mayne is hardly, with all his merits, suited. for one so gentle and unselfi s h as Kathie. He was too vehement and fierce, too self-reliant and positive. He could not appreciate the depth of her nature. If mistaken in the working-out of some of her problems of exislenA, she was always faithful, sincere, and upright. If Felix Mayne had been as humble-minded, there would not have been so many trials for them to endure. It is not easy for the reader to forgive his supplanting' by a stranger a being like Kathie ; and his tardy 'recog nition of her merits at last is not the devoted and life-long attachment that she deserved. It is sad to dwell on many of the passages of the lonely life here recorded. We must die alone, is a,common. fate ; but it was the doom of Kathie Braude to live alone. In childhood, youth, and middle life, it seemed the same ; none would enter into the cares and trials, the joys and sorrows, of the me lancholy being. If she was not of them in the stir of life, however, she felt herself of service ' - and a peace beyond happiness, which the smil es . .and. frowns of a transitory world neither bestows nor removes, set its seal on the work of the mourner. . There are varieties of character to be met with in the course of this narrative," and for the most part they are well delineated. Reginald Pompe is a likely instance of what a selfish and cruel disposi tion may become, when indulged to the uttermost. Isabel affords an example of wayward and wilful fully. The description of Felix Mayne is a truth ful one ; -and many minor persons are life-like. The interest does not depend on the characters or eve its so much as on the tons of the composition. Without being dreary, it is islictive ; not sombre, it is thoughtful ; while dwelling on the refined and elevated, it acknowledges the power of the simple and the meek ; and even when pervaded by the lofty spirit of heroism, it does not treat of such as pertain only to a few, but erings down its blessed influence to bear on life. It is not reserved only for the far off and unfamiliar, who shine in bright but unattain able splendour, to illumme history, nr adorn biography, but shown forth as less known, but more worth knowing when it seeks the approval of Heaven through the blaze of no earthly triumph, and counts its glory and its crown to be " Unseen by man, but marked of God," the angel visitant at the fireside of home. Iu no part of the book is faintheartedness, repining, or despair excused, far less encouraged or glossed over. The stern laws of rectitude, the uncompromising rules of justice, are clearly defined, and carried out, in the working of their sublime and immutable decree. In pic turiug the mind tortured with doubts, it is thus expressed, "Oar Work is eternal, what we do, and how we do it, we must carry whither we shall go, to our shame and confusion, or to our honour. We may be impatient for results, but if we can-lay it to our conscience that we have striven our best, there need be no harassing fear that we have sown our ground with salt instead of grain ; if we do not harvest it God's angels will, and we shall find it safely garnered up against our day of account. Do thou thy work ; leave its results to Time." Kathie Brande, the fireside history of a quiet life, has a claim on the regard of all who appreciate the excellent, and acknowledge the superior in the Pages of fiction. The reader is presented,with the - result of fine taste and extenied knowledge, con veyed through the medium of records, that, though humble, sometimes approach the sublime in the majesty of truth, and are adorned by the beauty of the lowly and the meek. The pure in heart, the exalted in spirit, are chronicled in the annals be fore us, and a source ofinterest, independent of an . exciting narrative, or a wonderful hero, or heroine, exists vital and for ever in the work impressed by such an influence. Its merit rests on no baseless fabric, its attraction dwells in no evanescent charm, but the strongholds of right are its mighty secu rity, and the superscription of virtue its unfading ornament.

The supply of beasts in to-day's market was limited, and for most breeds we had an improved demand, at fully Mon,day's prices. There was only a limited number of sheep on offer, and the mutton trade was firm, at very full currencies. Calve?, the supply of which was limited, moved off steadily, and the quotations were a shade higher. Pigs were steady, at late rates. Much cows were dull, at from 141. to 191. each, including their small calf.

Some large parcbls have been taken on speculation, and the increased values have, in some instances, checked busi ness.

AYLESBURY, THURSDAY. An influential meeting, at which upwards of two hundred persons were present, was held last evening in the Castle -street lecture-room, to take into consideration the excessive surcharges which had been made by the new surveyor, who has only been a resident in the town some seven or eight weeks. The meeting excited a good deal of interest. J. Jones, Esq., solicitor, in the chair. The following resolutions were proposed, seconded, and carried without a dissentient : " That, as the profits of bu4ineas in the town of Ayles bury were rigoren•ly ii.vestigated, and just assessments made, during the surveyorships of Messrs. Groves and Boorman, at the time when large sums of money were required by the exigencies of the late war, the tradesmin of this town view with surprise and indignation the at• tempts which are now made to increase the assessment under Schedule D. "That, as the profits of the tradesmen of Aylesbury have been materially diminishedby reason of the high price of pr•visions, the assessments, instead of being raised, should be decreased. "That a memorial be presented to the Lords of the Treasury, praying that the tradesmen of this town may be spared the annoyance and vexation of preparing ac counts, and exposing their affairs to officers and others who have a direct pecuniary interest in increasing the asses-ments." All the speakers agreed that it xas not the tax itself that they complained of. They would willingly pay the sum they had been called upon to contrihute ih former sears; but expressed their determination to resist, to . their utmost, the enormous surcharges had been attempted to be forced up in them. A committee of gentlemen was appointed to collate foots and prepare the memorial to the Lords of the Treasury., - .
