Government, with the connivance of the Legialatnie, appears resolved to dedicate London to the filthy cua _toms acquired by its inhabitants from an almost im memorial antiquity. Last evening two most im portant measures, (or the better supply of water to the raetrop - olis were rejected by majoritietof 106 and 110, aver having already passed a first reading. Both of these projected improvements were foregone, more river, for reasons of the flimsiest character. One ob- jection was a prejudice against artesian wells, Lnd another was an extravagantly disproportioned consideration fur eleven mill-owners over and above the many hundreds of thousands of people requiring some more nutritious and wholesome beverage than that obtained from the great water channel now employed for the purposes of drainage. Than this nothing could be more false in principle or more ridiculous in its general application. Well might we feel disposed to despair of ever obtaining good water for consumption in the capital if we re garded the matter as wholly dependent upon the mea sures yesterday. rejected. Fortunately those mea sures, to our thinking, are, though truly admir able in contrivance, little better than temporary makeshifts until such time as the Thames can be turned to its natural account, being rendered the purveyor of health and nourishment instead of disease and poison. When the sewage shall, as it must ultimately, be conveyed from the metropolis by other means than the river, leaving that noble means of irrigation uncontaminated by material capable of judicious employment as manure throughout the agricultural districts, the inhabitants of London can be as readily supplied with water for household con sumption from the Thames between the bridges as it could though the current were conveyed to the me tropolis by means of an aqueduct either from above or below Henley. Under those circumstances, heavy penalties inflicted upon all such parties as should throw refuse of any kind into the river would pre serve the waters of the Thames at Waterloo•bridge sufficiently pure for all domestic purposes—as pure as it is at this time below Henley under existing ar rangements. When, therefore, we express our extreme disappointment at the successive re jection of the London (Watford) Spring Water Company Bill, and of the Metropolitan Water-works, (Henley-on-Thames and London. Aqueduct) Bill, upon the occasion of their proposed second reading, we do so leis because we regard them as calculated to prove good expedients for the time being, than be cause we view the fact of their being quashed so hastily, and quashed too upon arguments of such paltry opposition, as a token of the apathy of the Government, and generally speaking of the Legislature itself, in reference to all sanitary improvements. By the obstinate main tenance of the window-tax the light of heaven is shut out from the poorer classes, and with it all chances of proper ventilation. By the ridiculous subserviency of the Cabinet and of the Parliament to the whims, the eccentricities, and the dawdling of the Board of Health, session after session is allowed to pass without witnessing one advancement in any one particular. Steps cannot be taken in this matter or in that matter, according to the Secretary for the lime Department, until the report, long expected and long promised, has been obtained from the Com missioners. And the utility of such reports. has cer tainly been strikingly exemplified of late by that long-winded document, in which the result of the Board's deliberations upon the subject of metropo litan drainage was intimated ! Thank heaven, if this is the disposition of the Government, if this is the habitual procrastination of the Commissioners, if this is the usual indifference of the Parliament, there are some few even among our popular repre sentatives who are not disposed to wink at its un interrupted continuance ! Last evening, Lr example, on e of our most veteran reformers, Mr. HUME, pro tested against the notion that the supply of good water to London will necessitate the injury of pro perty incapable of adequate compensation. He main ained that if a few mill-owners might be injuriously affected by the Aqueduct Bill from Henley, it must also be borne in recollection that a beneficial result would follow inevitably, and that beneficial result, moreover, affecting no less than two millions of the inhabitants of the metropolis. Again, Mr. MOWATT, with a delightful enthusiasm, went to the length of maintaining that, supposing even that che3e eleven mill-owners lost the whole of their property, such a circumstance ought not to weigh one iota in the scale ? And Mr. BEIINAL OSBORNE, the truly independent Mem ber for Middlesex, almost pathetically adjured the House of Commons to examine the water im bibed in the metropolis with the aid of a mi croscope. Anything more discouraging to the aspi rants for; anitary improvement has not for a consider 4ble time been so conspicuously visible in the Psrliamentary debates as the result of these two me lancholy divisions last evening. The long-expected trial of strength between the Protectionists and the Free-traders, in the popular branch of the Legislature, has taken place. The nation has, at length, an opportunity of testing the accuracy of the statement as to the "decided reaction" in pub lic opinion, and the numerous conversions from the anti• monopolist ranks that bad been so loudly vaunted. After the series of meetings held last autumn, and the unusual activity displayed by the agricul turists, we had vainly supposed that not a single week would have elapsed . after the re-as sembling of Parliament before the question was fully and fairly discussed on neutral ground. But week after week, and month after month, glided away, and nothing practical was done. No leader of the agri culturists could be induced to fling down the gauntlet which so many free-trade champions were ready to accept. In fact, the really talented Members of the party shrunk from the unwelcome task. The Hon. Member for Buckinghamshire,. whose position and Ability might have warranted the undertaking, too clearly perceived the impolicy of hazarding a " pitched battle." A guerilla warfare was better suited to the troops on whose support he could reckon. He did not wish to reveal his real weakness and the poverty of his resources to his triumphant adrer. caries; accordingly, in place of demanding the re enactment of the corn-laws, he contented himself with asking for a " fair adjustment of local taxation," and 8. modification of the fiscal charges that pressed unduly upon the owners and occupiers of land throughout the country. _ _ But this moderation was not duly appreciated by he sturdy yeomen. They could not understand why their leaders were not as " ready for the field" as they were themselves. The pack was ac cordingly unkennelled, " Old Jowler (Chowler) leads the cry," and threats and menaces were freely hurled against all who refused to comply with their very reasonable requests, or to pay a " black mail" to the bucolic freebooters. The walls of the Crown and Anchor rung again with 'the torrents of indignant eloquence lavished on the occa sion. The labourers were to be turned adrift defi cient of employment, and thus driven into a state of insurrection, while the farmers would take care not to interfere in any way to suppress the disturbances which they had themselves excited. The much vaunted loyalty :of the " Yeomen of England" was fur the moment forgotten. In fact, they were not merely contented with professing neutra lity, or declaring their intention to let the agrarian tumult proceed without let or hindrance, but some of the more energetic were prepared to take a more active part, and "to exercise the strength they still retain in their arms." These vigorous demonstrations . and ' Bold words ufficlent Honourable k w n e o r w e, ie h d O g w ed e v l e e r ilde in ra. Thes stimulate th e i r ac eee Member for Buckinghamshire, an d the other chiefs. of the party, would not abandon the cautious policy they had deli , herately entered upon. They were too well awar e o f the disastrous results that mu s t follow from a decisive and unequivocal defeat to hazard the encounter' " But --- rush in where ang e l s f ear to tread," and GRANTLEY BERKELEY was ready to lead the "forlorn hope." The new-fledged zeal so remark able in all recent converts perhapt stimulated the lion. Gentleman to the des p er a te undert a k ing , or, probably, he was anxious to induce the public to forget the "family jars" in which he had played so coespicuous a part—or, possibly, he might have dis covered in the exposure some ingenuous device for annoying his elder b ro ther—the head of his house— and wou ld-be nominates of the representatives for the county of Gloucester. Th e Protectionists willingly accepted the proffered aid ; they entered not into his motives, and influenced, perhaps, by feelings similar to those which induce the Moslem to give the " post of honour" and of "danger" to renegades, they permitted the Honourable Gentleman to lead the vanguard; and introduce the long- expected motion. * It is scarcely aec'eSsary to allude to the debate. If any question has received full and ample discussion— if any principle has been definitively and irrevocably settled, it is that of " free trade." Further pro gress must be made; certain existing restrictions must be abolished, but there can be no retrogression or reaction. Mr. BERKELEY, who still calls himself a Free-trader (a Free-trader—GOD save the mark !) desired, because some obnoxious taxes were still re tained, to reimpose the most objectionable of all— " the tax upon bread," on the food of the people, for the benefit of the privileged few. It was not, per haps, the " corn of England" so much as the " corn of the tropics" that the Honourable Gentleman was looking to. He might not object to the abolition of the "bread monopoly" if the "sugar monopoly" could still be retained. But one measure of relief naturally followed the other, and the West India proprietor sympathised strongly with the landocracy of England at the grievance they had sustained, of being no longer able to maintain artificial prices, and to preserve taxes that had been originally imposed, not for the purposes of revenue, but of protection Hence his abjuration of his " former errors," and his readiness to bring forward resolutions totally op posed to the principle which he had formerly sustained by his votes. The division was, however, too decisive for us to quarrel with the Hon. Gentleman for having pro duced a result so very satisfactory. His motion was negatived by a majority of 114-184 only having sup ported, while 298 opposed any further consideration of "the Acts relating to the importation of foreign corn." We can now understand the reason why Mr. DISRAELI refused to bring forward such a resolution. The Honourable Member, indeed, candidly ac knowledged that "it was not one which, had he been consulted, he would have recommended. If he had thought such a motion ought to have been made, he would either have proposed it himself or asked some person more competent to do so." Mr. GRANTLEY BERKELEY was clearly not the champion he would have selected ; and, indeed, we cannot wonder at his unequivocal displeasure. His well considered system of tactics has been overturned by the rashness and hardihood of the recruit; the strength of his party has been annihilated through the obstinacy of the new convert; his forces have been dissipated and dispersed, and he must now en deavour to re-organize his forces, and to commence de novo. In the meantime we wish the Protectionists much joy of their acquisition ; we give them their new ally with all our hearts. There are, we believe, few of the Free-traders who will not join with Mr. COBDEN, that if asked to " make a present of one of their colleagues," they would not have selected the Hon. Gentleman, the hopeful scion of the ancient house of BERKELEY, as the person to be freely sur rendered. THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. The Ministers received a severe check in the As sembly on Monday, a check which seems to be ominous of the fate of the Electoral Bill. In the de bate on the Badget, M. CHAUVIN proposed an amendment, rendering each Minister personally re sponsible for any expenses he might incur without the authorization of the Assembly. This proposition, which was opposed by the Minister of Finance and the Minister of Justice, and which is tantamount to a vote of want of confidence, was carried by a majority of 85, the numbers being for the amend ment 361, against it, 276. The Patric says that the Procureur-General of the Republic will be guilty of a dereliction of duty if he does not demand an authorization to prosecute M. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE, for having been guilty of a provocation to insurrection in his recently-published protest against the Electoral Bill. The following modifications are said to have been made in the Bill by the Committee:— " 1. It has been decided that individuals shall be inscribed on the electoral lists who can prove that they have been inscribed for more than three years on the list of those who are bound to give a certain portion of labour (prestations en nature) for the vicinal roads.- 2. The mayor in drawing up the electoral list shall be assisted by assessors chosen by the Juge ee Paix amongst the electors residing in the commune. The dis putes relative to the inscriptions on the list, or the strik ing out of electors, shall be carried before the Juge de Paix.-3. Difficulties which may arise relative to the re fusal of father., masters, or employers, to deliver certi ficates of residence to their sons, domestics, or work men, shall also be submitted to the jurisdiction of the Juges de Paix, who, where the three years' residence is clearly proved, may order the inscription on the list." Petitions against the Bill are coming in from all parts of the country. Among these is one signed by MM. ARMAND MARRAST, GOUDCHAUX, RECURT, BASTIDE, and other members of the Committee of the Constitution .in the Constituent Assembly. It is abundantly clear, therefore, that the authors of the Constitution consider any attempt to limit universal suffrage that may be made, except by a Constituent Assembly properly convened, as illegal. DUPIN is, it is said, also of this opinion, and he has therefore purposely absented himself from the Assembly during the discussion. A telegraphic dispatch was sent to him by the Ministers on Mon day, urging him to return and resume his place as President. His absence is considered a stronger protest against the measure than would be the most eloquent speech. Even General CHANGARNIER quails before the firm yet calm attitude assumed by the people, and is obliged to temper the violence of the reactionary measures which the Ministers would fain adopt. general CHANGARNIER, who has taken some pains to inform himself of the real state of the feelings of the soldiers, is now convinced that the warning given by General LAMORICIERR from the tribune to all violators of the Constitution, is a warning not to be despised. The Ministers wished to dismiss all colonels and officers of the National Guards who should sign petitions against the elec toral law. General CHANGARNIER said they might as well dissolve the National Guards, as the men would take part with the officers, and the troops of the line would not be inclined to act against the National Guards. The insurrection in . the Soane et Loire is spread ing ; the insurgents were still in possession of Creusot when the last accounts left. Patrie say s— " The workmen of the coal basin of the Creusot are in open revolt, to the numbers of 5,000 or 6,000. There is something besides a question of wages mixed up in this strike; but the Government is in a position to re establish order." The Constitationnel has the following: " A dispatch from General de Castellaae has reached the Government, which confirms and explains the ru mours relative to the insurrection of the coal-miners of the Creusot. We have told how some workmen, who had been arrested, were rescued from the hands of jus tice. The arrival of the law officer of the department had for effect, to give the insurrection a more consider shit) development, and the number of insurgents is esti mated at from 7,000 to 8,000. Troops were immedi ately ordered t's the spot, and the last dispatch of Gene ral de Castellane is of a nature to quiet all anxiety as to the results," A singular letter appears in the National, signed by 'AUBERT, ex-Prefect of Corsica ; ADAM, ex- Mayor of the Ist Arrondissement of Paris ; and BOUILLON, ex-lieutenant Colonel of the 2i Legion of National Guards; certifying the following state ment : " Colonel Laborde, representative of the people, a particular friend of the P res id ent, with whom he had been condemned for the . Boulogne affair, assured us, only the day befor e yesterday (11th of May), that M. Berryer and other Legitimists addressed him about a month ago, at the Chamber, in pre sence of General Montbolon, for sake of recom mending that they should advise the President that it was time for him to come to an understanding with the Bourbons, who would ensure him a suitable position; but that it he did not make haste to treat: he would be lost before two months had expired." The colonel further admitted that ho had related SaAndTl3:: the conversation to the Prince himself. G NC RAILWAYS Lo .

The commission therefore pro poses that small copper coins of the value of kreutzer, ditto, 1 kreutzer, and 2 ditto, shall be issued; silver coins of the value of 5, 10, and 20 kreutzers, and of 1 and 2 florins ; and gold coin of 5, 10, and 20 fl or i ns . Th e com mission also unanimously recommends that only one species of paper money shall be put in cir cu l a ti on f o r facilitating large negotiations, and that there shall be a guarantee that these notes can be at any time changed by the holder, at the national and branch banks, for the coin of the realm ; that the only paper money in circulation shall consist of that issued by the National Bmnk, and that these notes shall not be issued at a lower rate than ten florins. HOLLAND. --- - - Tun HAGUE, MAY IL—The Handelsbad says:— " We learn from an authentic source that the Go vernment does not intend to dissolve the Second Chamber after the adoption of the electoral and other organic laws which now occupy the States-General. It is rather intended that there shall be a short session in the middle of September. 'Eha First Chamber, on the other hand, will be dissolved in order to its re election by the provincial states.—Jcurnal du Corn merce, May 13. TURKEY.

THE lONIAN ISLANDS. The Gazetta di Corfu of the 27th ult. publishes a Parliamentary resolution, confirmed by the Lord High Commissioner, by which all goods transported by the Austrian Lloyd steamer from Corfu, Cepha lonia, and Zante are exempted from the Customs duty of five per cent. formerly imposed. MANCHESTER TRADE REPORT, MAY 14.—The intelligence by the A t l ant i c has had a very depressing effect on to-day's market. It has sent up the price of yarns 1 ,01. to iya d., and in some instances even more, over the rate of this day week. The consequence has been an almost total stagnation in the yarn market. Except for the East India market (numbers ranging from 50's up to 90's and 100's, upon which of course the advance in the price of cotton is not so much felt) few purchases have been made. In lower numbers, unless it may be for the completion of pressing orders, under contract, little or nothing has been done. The goods market has experienced little alteration in prices. The demand for shirtings is tolerably good, 36 and 40-inch T cloths are dull of sale, and decidedly unremunerative. TREASURE TROVE.—Exactly twelve months since we announced the fact of a large amount of treasure being found in an old clipper, bought by two watermen after being engaged in the coal trade, but which craft had been captured several years previously when engaged in that abomicable traffic the slave trad e . It gives us great pl easure i n an nouncing that the same good luck has fallen to the share of her Majesty's steam-sloop Cormorant, Commander H. Schomberg, one of whose prizes, an empty slave barque of 382 tons, arrived at St. Helena on the 6th March last, in charge of Mr. G. C. Smith, master's assistant of the above steam-sloop. The barque had had a tedious passage of forty-eight days from the Brazils, but the voyage was somewhat enlivened by the discovery of between five and six thousand dollars headed up in a farinha cask. She was the third prize made since the Cormorant arrived on the station, but the first sent to the prize court at St. Helena for condemnation, the others being burnt, unseaworthy.—Nau tieal Standard. POST -OFFICE NOTICE. — The following notice has been sent to the deputy-postmasters, by command of the Postmaster-General:—General Post-office, May 12, 1850. It is found that many postmasters still forward, on the Saturday night, in their "London through" bundles, letters and newspapers which ought to be kept over for the dispatchto London o f th e f o ll ow i ng day, viz., letters for London and the London district; letters for foreign parts; inland letters, prepaid by money; unpaid letters; letters for Guernsey and Jersey; and newspapers. Particular attention must be paid to the previ o us i ns t ruc tions, which direct that the " London through" bundles are to contain none but stamped forward letters, and the State's or Government letters.

PARLIAMENTARY REFORM.—A meeting of' the Bethnal-green Reform Society was held on Monday evening, at the Norfolk Arms, William-street, Bethnal-green, which was numerously attended; Mr. Joseph Dean in the chair. Mr. Hackman, one of the delegates to the National Reform Conference, made his report, which was approved and adopted. The meeting then proceeded to take into consi deration the principal objects of the society, which were to obtain the elective franchise for all persons living in houses for which the landlord pays the rates and taxes, without the necessity of claiming to be rated to every rate made during the four quarters of the year. The chairman stated that a Bill had been prepared by Sir William Clay to remedy the evil, who was now in communication with the Government and the law officers of the Crown on the subject Mr. Wick ham urged upon the meeting the importance of watching most closely the progress of this Bill, which there was too much reason to fear would be rendered nugatory by the Go vernment officials. The meeting resolved to act upon Mr. Wickhanes suggestion. SIR R. PEEL AND MR. KEARSEY. Mr. Kear say having written to Sir Robert Peel that be had been seventeen years a farmer, and yet never earned so much dur ing that time as in the seventeen last months since he be oame a trader, Sir R. Peel has caused the following reply to be sent :—" John Kearsey, Esq., Warnford, Bishop's Wal tham, Hants.—Sir,—l am directed by Sir Robert Peel to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 30th March, and to thank you for its communication. You observe that you gained more money in seventeen months' trading than you had gained in seventeen years' farming of a good es'ate in Barks, of 5,0001. stocking, and that farming has long been an unprofitable trade. During the seventeen years of farm ing to which you refer, or a very considerable portion of the time, there were high duties on the import of foreign agri cultural produce, and yet they did not avail to secure you a profitable return on your capital and skill applied to farm• i n restoration g ; econ o c f s u u d o e h s , d t u h t e i r e e s fo r a e s , t a h a r t em y you y would g n r o i e t u l l o t o u k r atlo daze tress.

At the Lambeth Police-court yesterday the corp s dramatique of a penny theatre, recently opened in Lock's. fields, were sentenced to 20s. fine, or fourteen days' ment each, for performing without a licence. Sidney Robert Sparkes and Charles Stanley, alias Nixon, charged with having in various instances ob tained money under the false pretence of providing persons with situations—with being, in short, keepers of a sham agency office—were yesterday remanded from Bow -street. Mr. Jardine refused to admit them to bail. - - -- - - - THE W EATHER .—The mean daily reading of the barometer in the past week at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, was 29'577. The mean temperature was 46'7 deg., and was le ss b y 5.4 deg. than the average of the same week in seven y ears . On every day it was less th an t h e average, but espe c i a lly on Monday, Tuesday, Wed nes d ay, and Thursday, when the decrease was from seven to nine degrees. The wind was generally in the north-east and south-west. The body of a Custom-house officer, named Sta pleford, whose disappearance from the Dutch brig Pallas, at Portsmouth, about two months since, caused considerable excitement was picked up floating near the shore off Hayling Island, on Sunday last. In the Bankruptcy Court yesterday Mr. Commis sioner Fonblanque adjourned the examination of Henry R ose sine dic, and refused him protection for a single hour. The bankrupt had carried cm business in Manche§ter ad a breNTIN MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of Co , ton it Liverp rol yesterday were esti mated .at 6,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export, and 3,000 on speculation. The market closed firmly with American nearly id. per lb. higher.— The market for Railway Shares opened firmly at termer rates, but closed rather heavily. In the Corn Market t e-day prices are firm. A larger demand has arisen for Saga-, and the quota tions are better supported. The public sales a Indigo, comprising 12,214 chests, began last evoning, and are proceeding rather quietly. The qualities of the Bengal, as we are Advised by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury, well-known brokers in the trade, are about three, fourths middling and ordinary, and one-fourth good and fine; the Madras ow-third ordinary, and two-thirds good and fine; the ICurpab, two-thirds middling ordinary, and one-third good and fine; the Java very fine; the;Manilla ordinary, with one or two chests good; the Bombay very ordinary. The room presented rather a thin attendance both of foreign and home buyers. The sales opened with a parcel of fine Bengal, consisting of 306 ohests of the mark I. and R. W., and was about half sold at .3d. per lb. above January rates; prices were from 3s. 9d. to ss. 4d. per lb. ' but without competition; there was only one chest at the former price, the chief proportion ranging above 4s. 9d. per lb. The advance upon Kurpah and Madras has been full 3:!. to 4d. per lb., and these rates ruled throughout yesterday. 1,187 chests Passed yesterday, of which 217 were withdrawn, 210 bought in, and 760 sold. IC is understood that the Canada Reciprocity Bill, which was some time since re-eommitt94l to the Com mittee on Commerce, in the United States Legislature, will be again reported to the House, together with a correspondence between the Committee on Commerce and the Secretary of State, and between the Secretary of State and the British Minister, in which the British Minister communicates to the American Government his power to pledge the British Government to open the river St. Lawrence and the adjacent canals, to Ameri can citizens and to American shipping. This cor respondence was instituted by the Committee on Com merce, to avoid the necessity of introducing into the Reciprocity Bill any feature which could make this Bill in itself a measure of reciprocity with the Imperial Government, and thus open the same privileges to other nations with which the United Sates have commercial treaties containing the clause commonly called " the most favoured nation clause," that is, the clause which promises to put the nation with which the treaty is concluded on the terms of the most favoured nation. The pledge of the British Minister is considered full and satisfactory, and the whole region of the north west is deeply interested in this privilege. The unfair and shuffling conduct ofcertain of the direc tcri of the Madrid and Valencia Railway excites the highest degree of indignation in the City, but does not discourage the shareholders in their belief of ultimate and entire satisfaction fur past disappointments. A party interested writes as follows: "Sir,—As you have in your valuable paper ex posed the proceedings of the Madrid and Valencia Railway Company, I expected before now you would have stated what steps have been taken against the di rectors, individually and collectively, to secure the 110,0001. they have to account for, according to a stat - ment published by a Mr. E. H. Lindo, the only item in which it appears to me they can object to is the 9,000/. for interest on the 75,0001., for if they have been using the money for their own purpose, they may not like to pay interest for it. All that has yet been shown against it is, the secretary swears that about 3,000 shares have been bought in with the company's money, at about 11. per share. Mr. Waley committed a gross error in do. Glaring that part of the 3,700/. received from the hank was taken to pay the six millions Spanish stock, the cost of which is charee3 in the account rendered to the 31st of December, 1846. Nor can it 1 e supposed the Spanish Government would give up one security before it had another. The secretary declares Mr. Chadwick received the interest on that stock, which is about 1,9001. per annum. Care should be taken to prevent any of the directors getting out of the jurisdiction of the court. Let them prove their set-off to the account. As to Mr. Rose's claim , it is all fudge; when his account i s exam i ne d it w ill b. found Mr. ~ his kind Lather-in-law, has overpaid him, for the company cannot have to p a y for Paulson, Wells, Neale, and others; he must look to his clients. As to the books, they are of minor consideration after Mr. L.'s plain account; probably they may only be duplicates of the North Wales Company's. It is therefore to be hoped that the official manager and his solicitor will lose no time in securing the large amount proved to be due by all the directors. " May 15, 1850. " A SHARER LDER." We adverted a few days since to the imperative ne• cessity of a generous line of policy being adopted to wards the railway companies, which are nearly crushed by improvident engagements formerly contracted, and it is highly pleasing to see that the holders of Caledonian preference retook have come f rrward to set an excellent ex ample by a voluntary sacrifice of part of their indisput ableclaims. The difference to them may notprove serious, but to the company it will be moat valuable, and we trust the other guaranteed creditors will act in a like spirit.

The demand, however, was far from active; yet Monday's quotations were well supported in every instance. Very few offers reached us from the East coast to ship Wheats at ruling prices. The imports of Foreign Wheat have been confined to 3,560 quarters, chiefly from the Baltic. Fine parcels were held firmly at the late advance. In the middling and inferior kinds very little way; doing. Scarcely any Barley was brought forward; grinding and distilling sorts moved off freely, at full rates of currency; malting parcels were quite as dear.

(Sittings at Niti Prius, nt Guildh3ll, bif Lard CAMP BELL and a COMUD.II Jury.) HETHERINGTON V. WCORMIC. This was an action brought to recover damages for an assault and false imprisonment. Mr. Lush was counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. O'Mal• ley represented the defendant. Thu plaintiff is a Parliamentary agent and debt collector, and the defendant is a tradesman residing in Fleet street. It arpeared that the plaintiff, who had been an attorney in Ireland, having been reduced in circumstances, came to England, wly:11 he became connected with the defendant in certain busi sass transaction , , and in November last the drh-ndant, thinking he had some cause of complaint against the plaintiff, gave him into custody on a charge of em bezz!ing 2/. 45., as be (the plaintiff) was walking town Fleet-street on his way to his chamberi. He was then taken before the police magistrate at Guildhall, by whom he was detained in custody from the 19th of November until the 16th December, and then discharged. Witnesses having been called to prove these facts. Mr. O'MALLEY addressed the jury for the defence, contending that the reputation of the plaintiff had sus tained no injury. The charge against him only fell to the ground ter want of legal e vidence to support it. The plaintiff had himself admitted his moral guilt. There were several charges of a like description againtt the plaintiff, end on one of them be bad been committed to Newgate, though afterwards discharged. The defea• dant, he submitted, was only liable for the imprison ment of the plaintiff until the remand took place. Lord CAMPBELL told the jury the sole question for them was the amount of damages. The plaintiff was net entitled to damages beyond the time of the remand. Hi thought this was hardly a case for nominal damages, as the defendant had taken the law into his own hands. The defendant bad not proved that a felony was com mitted; therefore it must he assumed that the charge against the plaintiff was unfounded. The defendant had, on the other hand, acted en very excusable mody (l i in giving the plair,t , ff into custody, and that being so, he (Lord Campbell) did not think it was an aggravated case.

The second sittings at NM Prins, in the city, were held to-day, but nothing transpired of the slightest put:- lie interest or importance. BOW-STREET.-(THIS DAY.) A respectably-attired man, who spoke with the ac cent (,f as Irishman, was charged under the following circumstances:— Police-constable F 16 stated, that yesterday aftern, , on he met the prisoner in Crown- street, Holborn, carrying a child, about nine years of age. The prisoner was in toxicated, and the child appeared to be insensible from drink. He sent the prisoner in custody of another con stable to the station, while he himself took the child to the hospital, where it was found to be in a dangerous ' state, but its stomach was relieved of its foul contents, and now the child was only suffering from the langour producel by the drink it had taken. The father of the child, who appeared to be a me chanic, stated that all he knew of the prisoner was simply this:—Some time ego he introduces a lodger to his house. Yesterday he call,d to see this lodger, and took that Opportunity of getting possession c f the child, by inducing the wife to let it go to a neighbouring pawn shop to redeem a scarf for him. Nothing was heard the child till the police-eOnst able came with the informa tion that it was in the hospital. The prisoner admitted this statement to be correct, and told the magistrate that before he got • to the pawn shop he met a friend, who invited him to have some drink, and this person gave the child two glasses of rum. Mr. HENRY asked if the chit was a male or u female? —The father replied that the child was a female. The child was not sufficiently recovered to admit of her being removed from the hospital. Mr. HENRY, therefore, remanded the case until she could attend to give evidence in the case, SADLER'S WELLS THEATRE. PERFORMANCE IN AID OF TIDE FUNDS OF GRAND EXHIBITION OF 1850. All honour to Messrs. Greenwood and Phelps for having set an example which, we trust, will be followed not only by all metropolitan managers, but by all pro vincial managers also. They, to-morrow, give a per formance at the Theatre Royal Sadler's Wells, the entire receipts accruing from which will be given i❑ aid of the funds of the Grand Exhibition of 1851, the expenses of the evening being defrayed by the management. This liberality on the part of Messrs. Greenwood and Phelps is almost unparalleled in the history of theatricals, and accordingly we are rejoiced to find that their conduct has been so highly appreciated that H. R. H. the Duke of Cambridge has consented that the performances shall be under his most gracious patronage, and that his Royal Highness has taken a box, and signified his intention to honour them with his presence; that the Duchess of Sutherland, and several others of the nobility have taken boxes and will also be present, and that the following gentlemen have consented to act as a committee :—Charles Dickens, Esq , Leigh Hunt, Esq., Charles Kemble, Esq., Douglas Jerrold, Esq., John Forster, Esq., Charles Knight, Esq. ,John Oxenford, Esq, D. Maclise, Esq., R.A., H. F. Chorley, Esq., J. A. Heraud, Esq., F. G. Tom fins, Esq., G. Daniel, Esq., Clarkson Stanfield, Esq., R.A. The peformance will commence with an Address, written by R. H. Horne, Esq., which will be spoken by Mr. Phelps, after which the National Anthem will be sung. This will be followed by four acts of Shakepere's Henry VIII., after which Mr. R. H. Horne will appear as Shylock, in the trial scene of the Merchant of Venice. This will be succeeded by a grand concert,,in which Miss Dolby, Miis Lucombe, Miss Lanza,Miss Lizzie Tedder: Mr. G. F.
