SECOND EDITION: '`b'lentn 'lLn LONDON, SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1845. The House of Lords met at Five o'clock. Th© LORD CHANCELLOR brought in a Bill to relieve members of the Jewish persuasion from certain disabili ties affecting them in respect to the holding of muni cipal offices. The Marquis of NORMANDY then brought forward his motion for certain returns relating to the constabulary force in Ireland, and complained that the recommenda tions of the Inspector-General (Colonel MACGREGOR), with regard to promotions in that force, had been disre garded by the Government, although it had been under stood at the time of histappointment that all promotions were to be at his disposal ; and although that under standing had received the sanction of both Houses of Parliament, yet, notwithstanding this, Major PRIESTLEY had been promoted, while Mr. BROWNRIGGB, an older officer, who had been: recommended by the Inspector, had been passed over. He should likewise wish to have a return of the number of the army serving in Ireland on the Ist of January during each of the last ten years. He would there fore move for a return of the appointment of the Deputy Inspector-General since the decease of the late Major GALWAY, of the constabulary force in Ireland, and of any communications from the Inspector-General respecting the appointments that had been made, and also a return of the number of her Majesty's army in Ireland, from the Ist of January, 1835, to the Ist of January, 1845, both inclusive. The Duke of WELLINGTON contended .that the right of appointing to the constabulary force was in the power of the Lord-Lieutenant ,and that it was his duty to exer cise his discretion in making those appointments. The Lord-Lieutenant had a right to make those appoint ments, and he would not consent to a motion criminat ing the Lord-Lieutenant for the exercise of a right which was vested in him by law. With regard to the return of the forces in Ireland, he did not object to it, but he would add a return of the number of troops sent away from Ireland during the same period. The Noble Lord would find nothing in these returns to commit the Government, the Secretary at War, or any other person connected with the army ; nor would he find anything to support his argument that an unlimited force had been kept in Ireland. Earl FORTESCUE supported the motion. Lord BROUGHAM thought no slight whatever had been put upon Colonel MACGREGOR by the Lord-Lieutenant. He had himself, while Lord Chancellor, disregarded the recommendations of Lord-Lieutenants of counties in making appointments to the magistracy. The Marquis of NORMANDY replied. The House then divided, when there appeared, Con tents, 12 ; Non-contents, 32 ; majority against the mo tion 20. The House then adjourned. The house of Commons met at a Quarter before Four o'clock. MT. BRINSLEY SHERIDAN took the oaths, and his seal for the borough of Shaftesbury. Mr. DEEDES took the oaths and his seat fur Ease Kent. Several private Bills were forwarded a stage. Among the notices of motion given, was the following by Mr. WODEIIOUSE, to move as an amendment to the motion of the Hon. Member for Stockport which stood first on the orders of the day for Thursday next, for a Select Committee to inquire into the ope ration of protective duties upon the interests of tenant-farmers, the following resolution : That an inquiry into the operation of protective duties on imports, as regarded the interest of tenant-farmers and farm-labourers, was objectionable in principle, if the purport of it was to show that they had a dis tinct and separate interest from that of their landlords, or those on whose property they chose to live ; that the condition of tenant-farmers and farm-labourers did indeed deserve the most serious attention of Parlia ment, and it was the bounden duty of the House as to shape its deliberation, as to make known to the occupiers and tenants of the soil the necessity for their having a continuance of all protective duties; and that the removal of all protective duties was averse to the general interests of all classes of society. Mr. STAFFORD o'l3fliEw also gave notice of his inten tion to move as an amendment, on the motion of Mr. COBDEN, that a Select Committee be appointed to in quire into the extent of mortgages on landed property in this country, and into the cause of agricultural distress. In answer to the same Hon. Gentleman, Sir B. PEEL stated that the remission of the duty on seeds would take place after the present sowing, and that clover seed would not be included in the list. In answer to Mr. S. Wortmxr, Sir R. PEEL, on the part of the present, and Lord PALMERSTON on the part of the late Government, denied that there was any truth in the report that this country had ever offered to purchase California of the Mexican Government. The report on the Property-tax Bill was postponed. till Monday. On the motion that the House do resolve itself into a Committee of Ways and Means, Mr. W. WILLIAMS entered into a long explanation on the subject of the motion of which he had given notice for the preceding evening, relative to the sale of the Hafod estate. After a few words from Lord LiNcoLN, Mr. HumE, and Mr. MACKINNON, the subject dropped. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice that he should propose going into Committee on the Customs' duties on Monday, if time would permit. Mr. COBDEN, on the question that the Speaker do leave the chair, said that, as they were going to vote a certain amount of protection to the colonial proprietors. he thought there could be no objection to that amount being ascertained. He calculated it at 2,500,0001., an amount that would enable Government to repeal the soap and window duties, and leave a surplus of half a million to devote to other purposes. A long discussion ensued as to the accuracy of Mr. COBDEN'S calculations. Eventually the House went into Committee. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then proposed his resolutions on the subject of the sugar duty. A long conversation followed, in the course of which Mr. Hocc expressed his concurrence in the alterations proposed by the Government, and in the classification of sugars proposed by them. The East India Company were satisfied with the measure as it then stood. Several amendments were proposed by different Hon. Members, and withdrawn. One amendment, however —that proposed by Sir W. CLAY—the effect of which would have been to impose a duty of 4s. Bd. per cwt. on sugar instead of the duty proposed by the Government, was pressed to a division. It was negatived, the numbers being—for the amendment 69, against it 152; majority against the amendment 83. The remainder of the clauses were agreed to after a short discussion. The House resumed, and the report was ordered to be re ceived on Monday. The House adjourned at One o'clock. Mr. COBDEN last evening, in the debate on the sugar duties, made a very simple statement, rather by way of hypothesis and with a view to information, than as a matter of fact. His object was to ascertain, by a proxi mate calculation, how much the people of this country would be compelled to pay the West India proprietors by the proposed resolutions of the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER. "The Right Honourable Gentleman," he said, " assumed that we should receive 230,000 tons of colonial sugar, and were to pay 101. a ton of, duty, the amount of foreign sugar being reckoned at 20,000 tons. He therefore thought it was evident before we should have 20,000 tons of foreign sugar we must have previously paid the 101. extra duty on the colonial sugar. If he was right—and he was taking the Right Honourable Gentleman's own proposition — then the amount which the House was about to vote in the way of protection would be about 2,416,000/. In fact, tax C t,throewn,and t wliicho the they colonial wer p were to p v r o o te ri :' to as r 3 s: soo,oooL to the before stat e d, a tax of 2 ,416 , 0001., a sum which as he w o h u ad l d have enabled th e Right Honourab le Gentleman to have taken off the window-tax and the soap duty, and have left him about half a million' t o spare. I f there was any fallacy in what he had stated it should not remain uncontradieted." The CHANCELLOR of the Excuxcluxa, who showed he was unable, or speaking perhaps more correctly, unwilling to answer the question, begged to reserve the discussion of a general question fur a future .111A.RKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.) period. Lord Howicx. thought the question fJir, intelli- I COVMNT-G.II.II.DEN. gible, and most, important, and contended that it involved On the whole, the supplies of Vegetables were tolerably a point which should be cleared up before they proceeded good, (a I t N o -h t il h e o t s h e e o to i l l a e n , ll o f u or t t h h is eT ta w . a , s . ste.7 , c . ly, at prices . about farther.

He sue •It o 78 each. ceeded in the first, but the discussion to which the ques tion of the Hon. Member gave rise, showed that he failed in the second. The general feeling of the House was in favour of Mr. COBDEN, and against the ex-Minister—who, whatever may be his abilities, and however skilled he may be in Jesui tical logic, will find it difficult to convince practical men and men of honest intentions by any other arguments than those founded on fact. The Madrid journals of the 28th ult. have been re ceived, but, as usual, they are very barren of intelligence• The Three per Cents. closed at 341, at 60 days; the Fire per Cents. at 254, at 60 days; and the Debt withoat interest at 71, at 60 days. The foreign mail, which had been delayed by stormy weather, arrived at a late hour this afternoon. The principal subject of interest noticed in the Paris papers, is the proposed conversion of the Five per Cents., which meets with much opposition. The Peers, it is said, will decide against it ; and the Finance Minister has re quested M. MURET DE BORA, who brought iu a Bill on the subject, to withdraw it for the session, but he de clined. M. LACATE LAPLLGNE considers it a just and expedient measure, but objects to the introduction of it at present. " The Committee who recommended it," he said, " had used its right ; but he would be wanting in his duty if he concurred in the proposition until the last instalment of the loan lately contracted was paid, and the penal enactments, now submitted to the appro bation of the Legislature, should have put a period to the existing scandalous jobbing in railroad shares. Should the contrary opinion prevail, he knew the course that a Minister of Finance ought to adopt." In answer to a question in the Chamber, M. LAPLAGNE said it was his intention to bring in a Bill for the conversion of the stock next session, if it appealed then opportune. The discussion in the Chamber of Peers on the Secret Service Money Bill was still going on, but after the speeches of Count Moms and M. GUIZOT there had been no others of importance. The Duke of BROGLIE was expected to speak. The Three per Cents. closed on the Paris Boarse on Thursday at 85.20; the New Loan at 86 20; the Five per Cents. at 120.55 ; the Orleans Shares, 1,322.20 ; Rouen, 1,185; Havre, 975; Avignon, 1,112.50; Belgian Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 62.60; Spanish Three per Cents., 40i; Ditto Domestic Debt, 34k. THIS DAY'S NEWS. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) ROBBING FROM A DWELLING I'ol:SR.—Amelia Maydcw, 18, Selina Edwards, 17, and Susan Paulo, 28, the latter a married female, were placed in the dock, charged with steal ing a tin box. containing eight sovereigns, the property of John Greening, and a box, containing a watch and two seals, the property of Hannah Maydew, mother of the first prisoner, who is also grand-daughter to John Greening. Paulo was defended by Mr. Hurry, Edwards by Mr. Robin son, and Maydew was undefended. It appeared, by the evidence, that Greening's house, in Upper North-street, Lisson -grove, had been entered on the 4th of February, and the property charged in the indictment stolen. The police, discovering that that the grand-daughter (Maydew) and her friend, Edwards, bad been spending a quantity of money, .in connexion with the prisoner Paulo, went to the house of the latter, No. 5, Park-lane, where a number of dresses, purchased by the two first prisoners, and the boxes, which we-e stolen from North-street, were found. The, watch was also discovered on Alaydew, and identified by the old man Greening. From a written statement put in by the prisoner Maydon, and the character given by a number of respectable witnesses to the prisoner Edwards, it appeared that they had both held a respectable character as Hower -workers, until last year, when they began frequenting the Yorkshire Stingo saloon. Edwards was seduced, and, being about to become a mother, was turned out of doors by her parents. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty against all the pri soners. _ _ '1 he grandfather, an old man about eighty, who was obliged to be supported into the w;tnesi, box, begged, while the tears ran over his cheeks, for mercy for his grandchild. The prisoners were then sentenced, ➢laydew to three months' imprisonment, with hard labour; Edwards to nine months' imprisonment ; and Paulo to twelve months, with hard labour. NEW COURT. (Before the COMMON SERGEANT.) Glary Ann Mitt:lull, aged 18, was indicted tbr stealing, on the 22d ult., two account books and one handkerchi e f, v a lue 10s. Gd., te property of Thomas Wallis. The prosecutor went into a public-house; and, whilst drinking some liquour, the prisoner, who was there drinking also, took the books, which were tied in a handkerchief; and went away. The prosecutor pursued her; and, on coming up with her, caught her by the throat, and gave her into custody. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, and the Common Sergeant sentenced her to two months' imprisonment. lIAMBURGII MAIL. (RECEIVED THIS DAY.) ST. PETERSBURGII, FEB. 15.—The city of Moscow having been founded in the year 1147, will celebrate, in 1847, the seventh century of its existence. The Emperor wishes the iron railway between the two capitals of the empire to be completed by that time; but there are great difficulties in the construction. This is especially the case in respect to the Waladi chain of mountains between Moscow and Tuere. It is calculated, too, that besides the canals which the rail way will have to cross, there are six large, and twenty-four smaller rivers, over which bridges must be built. Further difficulties will be caused by the morasses between the river Msta and \Volga. The whole length of the railway will be 400 (English) miles —Allgenzeine Zeitung, March 2.

Czerski, formerly a Roman Ca tholic priest, and now Pastor Apostolic of the Christian Ca tholic Church at Schnei de Muhl, was published in all the Roman Catholic churches in this city. This measure, the consequences of which were formerly so formidable, made no great impression. People say, what now? And we should like to know what the Consistory will answer. ST. PILTEILSBUBGII, FEB. 24.—For nearly three weeks we had excessively cold weather, the mercury in Reaumur's thermometer being from 23 to 25 degrees below zero (28 de grees below zero, or GO below freezing point of Fahrenheit). Yesterday we had an extraordinary fall of snow the whole day, since which the weather has become less severe, the cold being now only 10 degrees Reaumur below zero. HAMBURGIL BORSENIIALLE, Mallen 4.

Died on the 6th inst., at New-street, Covent-garden, aged 64, M. Nugent, Esq., for many years one of the Parlia mentary reporters of the Times. The zeal, fidelity, and ability with which, through more than a quarter of a century, Mr. Nugent devoted his varied talents and acquirements to the service of that journal, meat justly secured for him the respect and confidence of its conductors; while in private life his manly, frank, and generous qualities deservedly endeared him to his colleagues and a numerous acquaintance, by one and all of whom his memory will be long cherished. PIIILANTHROPIC SOClETY.—Yesterday the annual general court of the corporation was held at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate-hill, for the purpose of electing mem bers of the committee and other officers for the year ensuing, and to receive the statement of the accounts for the past year. The chair was occupied by E. Bilke, Esq. The re port was unanimously adopted. It appeared that the outlay in this establishment has during these last few years mate rially exceeded the income, and it has consequently been found necessary to touch upon the funded stock. The re ceipts of the past year, including subscriptions, donations, dividends, ground-rent, &c., amounted to 3,860/. 11s. 3d., and the expenditure to 4,176/. 2s. ad., being 315/. Ils. 3d more than the receipts, notwithstanding 1,600/. stock had been sold out during the year. In order to meet future contin gencies, it was decided to sell out 2,000/. more from the re maining funded property, which now amounts to about 15,0001., in addition to the freehold and other property be longing to the corporation. The committee and other officers having been elected, thanks were awarded to the chairman, secretary, &c., and the meeting broke up. CAUTION TO YOUNG WOMEN.—One day last week a young wothan took her place in the late train from Brigh ton to Hayward's Heath, and soon got into a lively conver sation with two of her fellow-passengers—gay Lotharios— in which she became so absorbed as to notice nothing else, so that the train passed Hayward's Heath, and went on to London. When she got to the station there, she observed to one of the officers that they had been a long time getting to Hayward's Heath. " Hayward's Heath I" said the man, " why you are in London." Such was the fact. The girl burst into tears, and said she had not a farthing about her, and was much distressed to know what she was to do to ob tain a night's lodging, or the means to return the next day to Hayward's Heath. Our informant left her in this per plexity.—Brighton Herald. NEWPORT. There was rather an inactive general demand at our quota tions.

Sir Robert, we will change with )ou, if you please. In stead of free trade in four hundred and thirty articles, let us have free trade in four only, and we will not bother you nny more for a long time to come. These are corn, animal food, butter, and cheese. We ask no more, and we beg to say, we will take no less.—Yours truly, TWENTY-SEVEN ➢ZILLIONS OF PEOPLE. REWARDS FOR DISTINGUISHED SERVICES.—The officers added to the list in the army estimates for the year 1845, are—Major-General Sir James Henry Revnett, K.C.H., 2001. per annum ; Major General Sir Frederick Stovin, K.C. 8., 2001. per annum ; Lieutenant-General Henry Monckton, 1771. per annum ; Major-General Alex ander Thompson, 10C/. per annum ; and Major-General W. A. Gordon, 100/. per annum : we annex the official record of their services. Major-General Sir James Henry Reynett, K.C.H., served on the expedition against Ferrol, in the Mediteranean, and in Sweden, and on the Quartermaster- General's Staff in Spain and Portugal, from 1808 to 1811 ; and was present at most of the battles and sieges during that eventful period; also in the Duke of Cambridge's Staff in Hanover. Major-General Sir Frederick, Stovin, K.C.B. served at Ferrol in 1800 ; Germany, 1805 ; Copenhagen, 1807 ; Sweden, 1808 ; battles of Corunna, Walcheren, in the Peninsula, and at the battles of Salamanca, Vittoria, Pyrennees, Nivelle, Orthes, and Toulouse, also at New Orleans. Lieutenant-General Henry Monckton served on the continent in Germany and Italy, in Ireland in 1798, in India, Cape of Good Hope, and the Mauritius ; has been fifty years in the army, and fourteen years in command of the 72d Regiment. Major-General Alexander Thompson served most zealously during the greatest part of the war in the Peninsula, was present on seven general actions, and three times wounded. Major. General W. A Gordon served in Holland in 1799, and Walcheren in 1809, and during the greatest part of the war in the Peninsula, and was three times wounded.—Naval and Miitary Gazette. NOVEL SYSTEM OF DOG STEALING.—For several days past extensive robberies of valuable dogs have been committed in the Regent's and Hyde Parks, also Regent street and Portland-place. It appears that, generally, two well-attired elderly females, dressed in handsome cloaks, walk in company in the interior of the parks, and are fol lowed by two men having the appearance of mechanics, each carrying a market basket. When a lady passes, who has a favourite dog running on the gravel walks, it is picked up by one of the women and placed under her cloak, and though at the moment close to the person they have stolen the dog from, such is the respectable appearance of the females, that no suspicion is attached to them. As soon as opportunity offers, they carry the prize to one of the men, who quickly walks off with the animal, which is kept until a handsome reward is offered. 1315110 P PHILPOTTS' MR. COURTEN AT.--At the Athenaeum Club, last week, there was a ballet for a certain Mr. Courtenay, and some mischievous wag spread the report, just before the balls were distributed, that this was the Bishop's Mr. Courtenay, whereby the candidate ran a risk of being black-balled. To avert this dreaded calamity, an anxious friend went round to each member, whispering, " It isn't the Bishop's Mr. Courtenay !" and coming upon Bishop Phillpotts, who is a steady hand at the club, he whispered, " It isn't the Bishop's Mr. Courtenay," whereupon the Bishop's bowed gravely, and the gentleman seeing whom he had coins down upon, blushed and went on.— Western Times. SUFFOCATION BY A SHIRT COLLAR.—Last evening Mr. Joseph Payne held an inquest at the Blue Anchor, Coleman-street, City, on the body of Mr. Harry Barrett, aged fifty-eight, a stock-broker. It appeared from the evi dence of Thomas Day, the waiter, that the deceased lodged in the above house, and on Wednesday night at about twelve o'clock went to bed rather worse fur what he had been drinking. The next morning an acquaintance called upon him, and being unable to gain any answer to his repeated knocks, the door was forced open, and the deceased was found lying by the side of the bed, rolled up in the clothes, quite dead. Mr. Edinburgh, surgeon, said that, from the tightness of the deceased's shirt collar, he had no doubt that he had died from strangulation. The surgeon thought the deceased had got his feet entangled in the bed clothes, and had fallen whilst walking across the room towards the bell rope. Verdict—" Died from apoplexy." LEICESTER STATE OF TRADE.—Trade remains much the same as last week. Wools are still reported firm, and fine foreign wool is on the advance. The spring trade for hosiery and fancy goods is flatter than usual, owing to the prolonged winter, but hopes are entertained of a brisk demand as soon as the weather improves.—Leicester Mercury. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool, yesterday, were 8,000 bales, with a steady market.—A good business was done in Shares, at firm rates.

Neither the United States nor England packet ships, from Liverpool, had been heard of, though more than two months on the voyage. The Bank of England during the week to the Ist instant, increased its circulation by 272,5851., and its bullion by 276,761/. The rest is also materially larger—viz., to the amount of 322,8911. The public deposits have increased by 238,985/. The English Securities are altogether nominal. Consols realised 100 to 99 3 / for Money, being very firm. Exchequer bills are 635. to 655. premium. The Foreign Bonds are all very buoyant. Spanish Actives realise 30% to %—a further improvement ; but the Three per Cents. are not higher than 41 to %. There is evidently an impression that something is likely to be done for the holsters of the former. Portuguese Converted have risen to 674 and 68 1 , . Mexican Bonds have been 3614 to 36 1 ,4, and Brazilian 90%. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. have been marked 63% to 63%. Russian are 116 1 ,4. There is a good deal doing in Railway Shares, but in some instances prices are lower. Hull and Selby have risen again, and also Churnet Valleys, Eastern Counties, arid one or two others.

Mr. Ormonde acts Othello; Mrs: Davenport, Emelia ; and Miss Davenport, Desdemona. The piece is well cast, and we have no doubt the public will show their approbation of Mr. Ormonde's talents by a numerous attendance. THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN INSTITUTE.—The dinner of the members of the British and Foreign Institute, on Thursday evening, was presided over by Lord Brougham, supported by Lord 3anies Stuart, M.P., Lord Dudley Stuart, Mr. Wynn Ellis, M.P., and others of the Vice-Presidents and Committee. The soiree of the preceding evening was one of the most brilliant of the season, both for the number of ladies present and the excellence of the music, which was varied, well selected, and highly enjoyed by all present. TAMAR SILVER•HEAD MINING COMPANY.—Yester day a special meeting of this Company was held at the office of Mr. Stainsby, No. 44, Finsbury-square. The chair was taken by Joaeph Grout, Esq., who spoke of the advantages that would be likely to accrue from smelting at the works, and proposed a resolution for that purpose, and for raising the necessary capital for constructing the works necessary, which was estimated at 9,600/. After a short discussion, the resolution was passed unanimously, and the meeting ad journed. MONUMENT TO THE LATE LORD HOLLAND.—The political friends and admirers of the late Lord Holland have subscribed 5,0001. for a monument to his memory, to be placed in Westminster Abbey. . The Committe e of Manage ment, consisting of Lord J. Russell, the Marquis of Lans downe, Mr. Rogers, the poet, and one or two others of rank and influence, have entrusted the execution of the work to Mr. Bailey, the Royal Academician. HANGING BY PROXY.—A stupid story of an Eng lishman having been condemned to death in England, but permitted to be hanged by proxy if he could find a substi tute, and of his having offered an enormous sum by way of inducing some person to take his place, appeared in all the French journals two or three years ago. The same story— if we are to believe the journals—has just been got up again by a wag of Tarbes, who has announced that the sum offered is 7,000,000 f., to be divided equally among seven persons, on condition of one of them consenting to be hanged in the place of the Englishman. 'We are gravely assured that the Prefect of Tarbes has been beset by applicants for information on the subject, in order that they may obtain the promised sum, with a view of sacrificing themselves for their families, and that he has had great difficulty in making them believe that they have been hoaxed. 7 -Galignani. _ A.BERG AVENN T.—RICK BURNING.—On Tuesday evening last, between the hours of ten and eleven o'clock, an alarm of fire was brought to this town by a messenger from Llangrwyney. The engine was immediately sent, but un fortunately did not arrive till nearly all of two ricks had been consumed. They were the property of Mr. Window, of the paper-mill, Llangrwyney, having been purchased by him of the outgoing tenant, from Taylor's Hall Farm, in that parish. The fire was discovered by a woman who was passing by about nine o'clock. It appears to have been the work of in cendiaries, and suspicion attaches to two individuals, who will, most probably, be examined. —/llosinotithshire A woman of penurious habits, named Robins, who lived at Mitchel Troy, and who, with her husband, were in decent circumstances, last week died from the effects of drink ing acorn tea as a substitute for coffee. The extreme astrin gency of the preparation produced an illness which made the misguided woman a victim to her parsimonious habits.— Monmouthshire _Merlin. The supply of mackerel this week has been large. One boat brought in 9,000 ore Thursday, and another the same number yesterday, which were sold at 17s. a hundred for the London market. Both vessels belonged to Messrs. Cheesman. The other boats have not been so fortunate. The supply of soles has also been plentiful. They are caught in the North Sea, brought to Hull, from thence forwarded to London, and so reach Brighton, where they are retailed at 3d. per lb. I They are stated to be excellent. Our own catch has been very small.—Brighton Herald. BREAD. The prices of Wheaten Bread in the Metropolis are from 7d to 74d ; of Household ditto, 54d to 64d per 4lbs leaf. HIDE MARKET.

Doulty, of the Runnymede, referring to the loss of these vessels previously reported, has been received by W. Dobson, Esq., the secretary to Lloyd's : " Runnymede, South Island, off East Coast, Andaman Islands, lat. 12, 1 N. lon., about p 9 3. 14 E., Nov. 15, 1844 . " I begto state for your information that on the 10 th, 11th, raged a ndl2 in th th o i f s tvhiicsinmitoyn,tpherTaeposf ever e zerienced by most man--it terrific hurricanes was totally beyond description—which, after dismasting and rendering the ship an unmanageable wreck, with only one boat saved. threw us ashore on the above island, at one o'clock in the morning of the 12th, nod, through the provi dence of Almighty God, without the loss of life. At daybreak we saw on shore a large barque up among the trees, which proved to be the Briton, of the Clyde, from Sydney to Cal cutta, with 311 soldiers, 34 women, and 51 children, with a crew of 36 men ; boats all gone. The carpenters of both ships set to work on our boat, which has been raised two streaks, false keeled and decked, and leaves this day for as sistance. We are here in all 630 people, short of provisions, and those more or less damaged. The water flows in at every tide, and everything is destroyed •, in fact, one-half of us have no shoes, and without a change of linen. No lives have been lost in either case, except one man who attempted to swim ashore." LOSS OF THE MELLISH, FROM CHINA TO LONDON. The following account of the loss of the above shi p is ex tracted from advices received at Lloyd's from the Captain (Fawcett) :—The Mellish was lost on October 5, on the south side of the North Danger of the Paracels, in a severe typhoon. The ship struck about sixty miles E.N.E., one half of the crew perished at the time the vessel was lost, the remainder of the crew and master took to the boats, and arrived at Pandaran Bay, situated in lat. 11, 35 N. lon. On the 27th October, on being visited by the authorities, the captain urged how much they wished to be sent to Singapore, or to any place where the y could g et a passage ; they were then informed that they should be sent in fifteen days ; they were afterwards told th irt y da y s, and on the 16th November the cantain states that the y had altered the time to three month's, so that without they. ob tained assistance from Singapore, they would be detained there longer. The survivors, amounting to eleven n nuin i ber, were all well on the 16th of November, except two, but received bad food and were scantily clothed. The Chi nese up the country were very hospitable and kind, but the Cochin Chinese quite the reverse, and dirty in the extreme. The authorities bad confined them to a fishing village in Pandaran Bay, which is de scribed by the captain as being a filthy place. It was subse quently reported that they would leave about February last, in a Chinese vessel, for Singapore : the reason of their depar. ture being protracted, was stated by the Chinese to be occa sioned by the monsoon, which sets in during the intervening SUM::ARY OF NEVIS AND Vtit)ltt Opinton.
