On the whole, the supplies of Vegetables were tolerably good, while the demand for them was steady, at prices about equal to those obtained on this day se'nnight. Fruit was in sluggish request, but not cheaper. Potatoes, from 3s 6d to 5s per cwt ; T ur nips, 2s 6d to 35 6d ; Carrots, 5s 6d to 7s ; Coleworts, or Greens, 3s to 4s ; and Leeks, Is to Is 9d per dozen bunches ; Apples, 2s to 4s; Pears, 3s to 8s; and Onions, 2s to 3s per half sieve ; Forced Po tatoes, 8d; Pine Apples, 8s to lOs ; and Filberts, Is to is 6d per lb; Savoys, is 3d to 2s perdozen ; Forced Rhu barb, Is 9d to 2s 3d; ditto Asparagus, 6s to 8s; Horseradish 2s to ss; Brocoli, 2s to 4s and and Celery, is to 3s per bundle ; Oranges, 5e to lOs ; and Lemons, 8s to 12s ; and French Beans, 25 6d to 3s per hundred. lEUTZGIIMPORD. We had a steady demand for most kinds of Vegetables, at full prices ; otherwise, the trade was in a sluggish state, at barely last week's quotations. NEINGATZI AND I.EADDNZA.III.• Prime Mutton, Veal, and Pork sold freely, other kinds of Meat slowly, at the following precis: —Beef, from 2s 4d to 3s 4d ; Mutton, 2s 8d to 3 s 8 d ; V, 3s 10d to 5s ; and Perk, 2s 8d to 4s 2d per 81bs, by the carcass. The supplies of both Game and Poultry offering were extensive, owing to which the demand ruled heavy, at barely last week's prices. Fowls, 3s to is ; Chickens, 2s to 4s ; and Ducks, 2s 6d to 6s. per couple ; Hares, 2s to 3s ; Rabbits, Od to 8d ; Partridges, 2s to 3s; Turkeys, 3s to 7s; Pheasants, 48 to ss; and Geese, 5s to 7s each. reserve the discussion of a general question for a future period. Lord Howtcx thought the question fair, intelli gible, and most important, and contended that it involved a point which should be cleared up before they proceeded farther. Sir R. PEEL, at last urged by the general feeling of the House to make some reply, adopted one of his usual modes of explanation when placed in a difficulty, by putting another question not at all applicable. In place of enabling the House to ascertain what the people really were to pay the West India proprietors, in addition to the twenty millions already taken out of their pockets, he put an absurd question about corn. He went off at a tangent to a different subject, and left the House as much in the dark as ever. Dissatisfaction still prevailed, :when Mr. GLADSTONE came to the rescue of the two Right Hon. Gentlemen, but neither could be answer the question. He had recourse, therefore, to that mode of argument in which the Jesuits and their disciples, the Puseyites, are well skilled. In their usual style he imputed bad faith to his opponents. He charged Mr. COBDEN with hav ing put a question, not for information, but for the sake of argument, and laid that down as a fact for his special pleading. His object was evidently two-fold—to shirk the question, and throw ridicule on Mr. COBDEN. He suc 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 344, at 60 days; the Fire per Cents. at 254, at 60 days; and the Debt without interest at 7i, 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 BORD, who brought in a Bill on the subject, to withdraw it for the session, but he de clined. M. LACAVE LAPLA.GNE 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, be knew the course that a Minister of Finance ought to adopt." In answer to a question in the Chamber, M. LIPLIGNE said it was his intention to bring in a Bill for the conversion of the stock next session, if it appeared 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 MOLE 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 Bourse on Thursday at 85.20; the New Loan at 86.20; the Five per Cents. at 120.55 ; the Orleans Shares, 1,322.20 ; R T o w u o e - n a , 1, n d - l a B - H 5 ; a I f Havre, per C 9 e 7 n s t ; s.

" I beg to state for your information that on . the 10th,11th, and 12th of this month one of the most terrific hurricanes raged in this vicinity, perhaps ever experienc(!d by man—it was totally beyond description—which, after di d by and rendering the ship an unmanageable wreck, with only one boat saved, threw us ashore on the above isand, at one o'clock in the morning of the 12th, aid, tlnrough 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, (4 the Clyde, from Sydney to Cal cutta, with 311 soldiers, 34 women, and 51 children, with a crew of 36 men ; boats all gone. T tie carpenters of both ships set to work on our boat, which has been raised two streaks, false keeled and decked, and l eaves this da y for as sistance. We are here in all 630 peop le, short of provisions, and those more or less damaged. The water flows in at every tide, and everything is destroyed ; in fact, epe-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 CIIINA TO LONDON. The following account of the loss of the above ship is ex tracted from advice 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 milee 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 , o n being visited by the authorities, the captain urged how m uch they wished to be sent to Singapore, or to any place where they could get a passage ; they were then informed that they should be sent in fifteen days ; tbey were afterward s told thirty days, and on the 16th November the captain states that they had altered the time to three months, so that without they ob tained assistance from Singapore, they would be detained there longer. The survivors, amounti n g to eleven in num ber, were all well on the 16th of Novembe r, exce p t two, but received bad food and were scantily clothed. The Chi nese up the cou n t r y w ere very h os pitable 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 Ba y , 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 : t he reason of their depar ture being protracted, was stated by the Chinese to be occa sioned by the monsoon, which seta In during the interyeaug REWARDS FOR DISTINGUISHED SERVICES.—The officers added to the list in the army estimates for the year 1845, are----Major-General Sir James Henry Reynett, 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 - Genera l Alex ander Thompson,loo/. per annum; and Major-General W.

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 g r av el 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. BISHOP PHILPOTTS' MR. COURTEN AT.—At the Athenasum 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 1" 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 come 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 for 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 fiat 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 House of Lords met at Five o'clock. The 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 his/appointment 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 PRIEOTLEY had been promoted, while Mr. BROWNRIGGR, 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 G AnwAr, 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-Lieut,enant,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, er 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. Mr. BRINSLEY SHERIDAN took the oaths, and his seat for the borough of Shaftesbury. Mr. DEEDES took the oaths and his seat for East Kent. Several private Bills were forwarded a stage. Among the notices of motion given, was the following by Mr. WODEHOUSE, to MOTO 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 se 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'ButErt 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 R. 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. WORTLEY, 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 2,500,000/., 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. Hoco 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 rcsumod, and the report was ordered to be re ceived on Monday. The House adjourned at Ono 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 UV. extra duty on the colonial sugar. If he was right—and ho was taking the Right Honourable Gentleman's own proposition— then the a moun t w hi c h th e House was about to vote in the Crown, the tax which n(1 to the they the f way of p ro t ect i on wou ld b e a b ou t 2,416,000/.

If there was any fallacy in what he had stated it should not remain uncontradicted." The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, who showed he was unable, or speaking perhaps mo-o correctly, unwilling to tovfor the quitio, begged to THIS DAY'S NEWS. CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY OLD COURT. (Before the RECORDER.) ROBBING FROM A DWELLING -110USE.—Affielia Maydew 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. Horry, Edwards by Mr. Robin son, and Maydew was undefended. It appeared, by the evidence, that Greening's house , in Upperi.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, had 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 were stolen from North-street, were found. The watch was also discovered on Maydew, and identified by the old man Greening. prom 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 flower-workers, until last year, when they began frequenting the Yorkshire Sting° 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. The grandfather, an old man about eighty, who was obliged to be supported into the witness- box, begged, while the tears ran over his cheeks, for mercy for his grandchild. The prisoners were then sentenced, Maydew 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.) Mary 44nn ]Vitchell, aged 18, was indicted for stealing, on the 22d ult., two account books and one handkerchief, value 10s. 6d., the 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. HAMBURGH MAIL. (RECEIVED THIS DAT.) ST. PETERSBURG'', 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.—Allgemeine Zeitung, March 2. POSEN, FEB. 24.—Yesterday the excommunication and degradation of the Rev. M. 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. PETERSBURG'', FEB. 4.—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 60 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. 11A.3IBURGII BORSEMIALLE, MARCH 4.

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, mest 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. PHILANTHROPIC 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 4,1761. 2s. 6d., being 3151. I Is. 3d. more than the receipts, notwithstanding 1,41001. stock bad been sold out during the year. In order to meet future contin gencies, it was decided to sell out 2,0001. 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 haying been elected, thanks were awarded to the chairman, secretary, &c., and the meeting broke up. CAUTION TO 'YOUNG WoatEN.—One day last week a young woman 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 !', said the man, " why you are in London." Such was the fact.

OLYMPIC THEATRE.—Mr. Alfred Ormonde takes a benefit this evening at the Olympic Theatre, when Othello will be performed by a most respectable company. 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 James Stuart, M.P., Lord Dudley Stuart, Mr. Wynn Ellis, M.P., and others of the Vice-Presidents and Committee. The soirée 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 Joseph Grout, Esq., who spoke of the advantages that would be likely to accrue from smelting at the works, and proposed a resolution fur that purpose, and for raising the necessary capital for constructing the works necessary, which was estimated at 9,6001. 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 5,000/. for a monument to his memory, to be placed in Westminster Abbey. The Committee 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, whe 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.— Ga/ignani. ABERGLVENNY.—RICK BURNING.--Of 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 Llaugrwyney. 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 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.—Mosmouthshire .i l l erlin. 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 on Thursday, and another thundredhe same number yesterday, which were sold at 175. 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 p lentiful. They are caught in the North Ses, brought to Hull, from thence forwarded to London, and so reach Briduten, where they are retaiieki at 3d. per lb. I They are stated to be excellent. Our owu Catch bee been very small.—Friglttan AND Publir ptitton. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. Accounts have been received from Zurich to the 3d. The Diet did not meet on the 2d ; and it does not appear that all division had taken place on the question relative to the Jesuits. In consequence of the communication in many parts of France being blocked up with snow, the Minister of War ilas decided that the call upon the conscripts o f the reserve, who were to join their respective corps in the month of March, is to be deferred till April. Accounts from Doubs represent cold as continuing with all its intensity in t hat country. The river is entirely frozen over, and the winter has in all respect s been as severe as that of 1829-1830. A comparative table of the imports into France duri n g the years 1843, 1844, and 1 845 , has just been published. Th, e duties received in January, 18 45 , amounted to 11,360,0291. In 1844 they were only 10,350,169 E, being 361,000 f• less than the preceding year. - The Minister of Commerce has issued a circular notice to the ports cf the kingdom, announcing that he had decided, in concert with the Minister of Finances, that henceforth captains of foreign ships shall be at liberty to apply to either the Marine-office, the Custom-house , their own onsuls, o r e to the sworn commercial brokers , for certifi cates of their Ogg, the tonnage of their vessels, the captains' na mes, the numbgr of their crews, the nature of their cargoes , a nd their cleating" tions.
