MINES. —Peering through the gloom which has of late beset our market there is the encouraging feature of a strong disposition to purchase into solid mines, whe ther paying dividends or otherwise firmly established safe concerns. In the former it is difficult to purchase, except at advanced rates, and the business, therefore, is limited; but in the latter considerable transaetions have taken place; in m an y cases at advanced prices— number of shar e s so c h ang i n g hands being largerthan tho usual. As bef ore i n ti ma t e d, the flush of capital ema nating from the payment of the July dividends will give a further stimulus to mining share and,transactions;will in ail probability, ca pit a lists offering at this moment the lower have no re as on t o regret their outlay. l grades of mines, absolute inaction prevails.

THE ARMY AND NAVY, (From the United Service . 6azetle.) RECRITITING FOR THE ARMY BY PENSlONERS.—Con siderablo difference of opinion having been expressed before the Military Commission, as to the advantage or disadvantage of employing pensioners in the recruiting for the army, it has been resolved upon testing it by experience, and the plan is at once to commence with the North British (Glasgow) district. No alteration is, however, for the present to be made with the staff, before whom all recruits are there to be brought for approval. ESTABLISHMENT OF REGIMENTS AT THE CAPE OF Goon HOPE.--The Service companies of the infantry regiments now serving at the Cape of Good Hope, as well as the 2d Queen's Royal Regiment about to pro ceed there, are to be completed to 610 rank and file each. The 12th Lancers, under orders for embarkation for that colony, is also to be augmented to seventy men per troop. CONVEYANCE OF TROOPS TO THE CAPE.-.IIOF Ma jesty's screw -ship Megaera having broken down, the Admiralty have ordered the officers and men to be turned over to the paddle-wheel steam-frigate Cyclops, which ship is to be prepared with every possible dis patch to proceed to Queenstown, and embark troops for the Cape. The Admiralty have also ordered the paddle wheel steam-frigate Birkenhead, at Portsmouth, to be got ready immediately to convey troops to the Cape. She will be ready on Monday. STAFF.—Major George Talbot, of the 43d Light In fantry (who for some years past has filled the post of Military ( Secretary to Lieutenant-General Rowan, C. 8., Price the general commmanding the forces in British North America), has been selected by Lieutenant-General Sir Richard Armstrong, C. 8., the newly-appointed Com mander-in-Chief at Madras, to be his Excellency's Mili tary Secretary at that Presidency. Sir Richard, accom panied by his staff, will sail, via the Cape, from Ports - mouth the end of this month. THE LATE ADJUTANT FLETCHER, 73D REGIMENT.- - The news in this day's paper contains the death of En - sign and Adjutant Fletcher, of the 73d, killed in action with the Kafirs on the 16th April. Although a melan . choly truth, still it is gratifying to us to know that this IN officer's early death is severely felt by a large body of his friends at home, as well (as our private letters from the Cape say) all who had the pleasure of knowing • him there; and it must be highly gratifying to those friends to read the eulogium on his merits pronounced in ' 34 General Orders by his Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Eyre. Mr. Fletcher was a native of Birr, in - Ireland, and, we have heard, was educated for the - Church, but not liking the path laid out for him by his friends, ho left Ireland, and enlisted in the Scots Fusilier ce Guards in 1836, and, from his assiduity and his previous - education, was in 1841 appointed Sergeant and Pay Ser geant. When the Board of Officers was formed for the ; examination of claims for the War Medal, Mr. Fletcher 14 was selected as clerk to the board, where his un A tiring exertions in behalf of the claimants gave so much satisfaction to his superiors that his commanding officer recommended him to the Duke of Wellington for a commission, and Mr. Fletcher was gaaetted to the 73d Regiment in November, 1848, and shortly after joined his regiment at the Cape. Mr. Fletcher was highly respected by his brother non-commissioned 14 officers in the Fusilier Guards, and was looked upon as one of tho best drills in the British army. In 1847 he N published a small volume upon arithmetic, which lie dedicated, by permission, to his colonel, Prince Albert; his Royal Highness was so pleased with this really clever work that he presented Mr. Fletcher with a Silver ' medal as a mark of his approbation. In the death of ) 3i Mr. Fletcher the British army has lost a good soldier ) and a kind-hearted comrade; but there is one left whose loss is far more severe and irreparable—his poor wife, who by this sudden affliction is deprived of her protector, 2% and with four children is left to deplore her loss. Need swe say that we sincerely trust the authoriti es w ill d o all 0d they can for her ? TRANSFER OF TROOP HORSES.-Detachments from the following regiments in charge of troop horses trans ferred from the 12th Lancers, embarked at Dublin on the 10th inst., for Liverpool, en route to join the Head quarters of their respective regiments, viz., 2d and 31 Dragoon Guards, lit and 2d Dragoons, 4th Light Dragoons, Bth and 11th Hussars, 13th Light Dragoons, and 16th and 17th Lancers.

The Bill contains 163 clauses, besides seveal schedules. never forget it. He stood, however, with rigid erectness, gazing with mingled anger and fear at the judge, whom be felt to be uttering his death warrant, and sfter a while bent his eyes on the jury, from whom they wandered scarce a moment during that momentous ?miming up, ono which with every word was letting fall round him, as he must have felt, the curtain of death. ' The law of honour,' said the judge, towards the close ofhis charge, 'is an imposture —a wicked imposture— ween set against tho law of the land, and the ltw of God Almighty, claiming the right to take away human life. I tell you, who sit there b discharge a sworn duty, that a fatal duel is s malicious homicide, and that is wilful murder.' The jury retired to consider their verdict, and the judge at the same time quitted the court till his presence should be required again. Captain Helsham, however, conti- nued standing at the bar almost motionless as a statue. After a prolonged absence of an hour and forty minutes, the jury returned into court. The prisoner eyed them as one by ono they re-entered their box, with a solici tude dismal to behold, and the irrepressible quivering of his upper lip indicated mortal agitation. The ver dict, however, was ' Not Guilty,' on which the prisoner heaved a heavy sigh, passed his hand slowly over his damp forehead, bowed slightly and rather sternly to the jury, and was then removed from the bar and released from custody, When the verdict was a few minutes af terwards communicated to Baron Bayley, who had re mained in attendance in an adjoining room, he remarked gravely, ' I did my duty—it is well for Capt. Helsham that the verdict is as it is; had it been the other way, I should certainly have left him for execution.' In that ease the duellist would have died on the gallows on the ensuing Monday morning." The declaration then complained that by the publication of this libel his good name and reputation had been brought into public scandal and disgrace, and that he had been shunned and avoided by divers persons, and other wise injured to his damage of 5,0001. The defendants pleaded to this declaration that on the Ist of April, 1829, the plaintiff was engaged in a duel at Boulogne with one Joseph Crowther, whom he there mortally wounded with a pistol, and that the plaintiff " feloniously, wil fully, and of his malice aforethought, did kill and murder the said Joseph Crowther." In another plea the de fendants pleaded that the plaintiff was tried at the Old Bailey, on the 9th of October, 1830, before Sir John Bayley, Sir John Bernard Bosanquet and others, and that the plaintiffs ease looked black enough to those who knew the law and the character of the judge, and that there existed up to the period of the said trial re mours of foul play having been practised by the plaintiff in the said duel, and concluded with a justification of the publication of the libel. The plaintiff replied that he bad been tried for the said offence and acquitted, and that, therefore, the defendants ought not to be permitted to aver that he had feloniously killed and murdered the said Joseph Crowther. To t ris replication the de fendants demurred on the ground that they were not es topped by the verdict of acquittal, they not being parties or priviles to the prosecution or indictment. Mr. Peacock, Q.C., Mr. Cowling, and Mr. Warren ap peared for the defendants in support of the demurrer; and Mr. Keene and Mr. Quain fur the plaintiff in sup port of the replication. The Learned COUNSEL for the defendants contended that the replication of acquittal was no estoppel to the plea charging him with being guilty of the offence; for although a man might be acquitted on a charge of forg ing a note, it did not follow that ho could therefore re cover on the note. The matters stated in the replica tion were res inter alias acts, and could form no ground of estoppel to the defendants. The verdict of acquittal was conclusive evidence of innocence so far as punish ment for the crime was concerned, but nol otherwise. The plea was then said to be bad, because it did not answer the whole declaration, as it left unanswered the accusation that the prisoner had spent nearly the whole night before the duel in practising pistol firing. But this was merely matter of evidence, tending to show that the plaintiff was guilty of murder. The Court could not try whether the duel was fair or not. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE —The issue is not murder or no murder, but libel or no libel. Mr. PE4COCK—Was murder a worse crime because the murderer sat up all the previous night practisin g the weapons he was about to use? This avernment in the declaration was, he submitted, merely evidence of the intent to murder. Mr. Justice MAULE—Malice is an essential ingredient of murder, and there might exist more malice than was necessary ; but, if that were averred, in order to support a justification, it must be proved. It would not be suffi cient only to justify so much as would constitute murder. The CHIEF JUSTICE-4f was the laudable object of the writer of the alleged libel to discourage duelling, and it would surely be a dreadful thing in the Court to hold that it was no aggravation of the crime that the offender sat up the whole night practising his weapons. Mr. Justice TALFOURD—Had it been stated that ho had secretly drawn the charge from his adversary's pistol, it would not have been more a murder, bet it would have been matter of affirmation. Mr. PEACOCK—If a man has been killed at a prize fight, we do not inquire on the trial of his antagonist whether ho was trained before the fight or not. Mr. Justice MAULE—But we do whether or not he held a piece of lead in his hand to make his blows the heavier. Suppose the libel said in terms the plaintiff was a duellist, and not only so, but that he had fought several duels in a malicious, unfair,, and ungentlemanly manner, would not that be an aggravation of the charge, and would it justify the libel to prove that ho had fought a duel? Mr. PEACOCK —The Court would not inquire whether a duel had been fairly fought or not, nor whether mur der had or had not boon committed in a gentlemanlike manner. Mr. Justice MAULE—There was great difference, as every one knew, in these cases, and persons were some times convicted of murder, and yet, with the concurrence of everybody, the extreme penalty of the law was not visited upon them. Nobody said the French law was unfit for a civilized people because it allowed of verdicts of murder " with extenuating circumstances." Mr. PEACOCK—Suppose the libel to allege that the plaintiff had committed an ungentlemanlike murder, LAW INTELLIGENCE. could the judge leave it to the jury to determine that COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, June 13. fact? (Sittings in Banc o . —T r i n i ty Term.) The LORD CHIEF JU STICE —B u t if th e lib e l alleged HELSIII2 I V .

Donohue and Smith, young men who have been long known to the police as thieves, were brought before the Lord Mayor by Trew, the officer, who said —I was passing through Bishopsgate-street a few nights ago, and observed the prisoners, whom I have long known as bad characters, walking along. The moment they saw me they separated, but, as I suspected they were about some housebreaking job, I took them into custody. About Donohue I found nothing. When I wont to search Smith he held up both hands, in ono of which thero was a silk handkerchief, and he cried out, " I have nothing at all about me." I then seized the hand in which the handkerchief was, and found in it, covered with the handkerchief, a new skeleton key, which I have no doubt was intended fur some warehouse. The prisoners denied all knowledge of each other, and re fused to let me know where they resided. Donohue —I admit that I refused to let him know where I reside, because the fact is I keep a private still, and get my living by it, for I find that it is both safer and more respectable to do a little in that line than in the other way. I never saw this good man (Smith) before in my life. I am altogether of the right sort now, I do assure your Lordship."—(Laughter.) The LORD MArox (to Smith)—l think you have been convicted of smuggling some time ago? Smith —I was, your Lordship. I kept a private still, and got six months for it. They caught me with the plant. The Loa. MAYOR —And that skeleton key is the key of the still-room? Smith—Just so, my Lord. Mr. Hobler, who appeared for Donohue, submitted that there was no evidence calculated to show that his client had been in Bishopsgate for the purpose of com mitting a burglary, whatever unfavourable impression might have been made by the suspicions entertained of his former character. The LORD MAYOR—I acknowledge that the evidence is not strong enough to justify his committal, or, indeed, his detention; but he has assured me that he supports himself by illegal means, and I cannot think of dis charging him till I know more about him. Donohue—l do business with several respectable pub licans and others,:my Lord.—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—WeII, I supose the have no objectio n t o come forward and give you acharacter? I shall be glad to see them.—(Laughter.) The two prisoners said they would willingly give their addresses to the officer, as a search would not tend to convict them of housebreaking, whatever secrets it might disclose as to their trade as spirit merchants. The LORD MAYOR then told Mr. Ifobler that if the officer found nothing confirmatory of his suspicions of the prisoners' engagement in Bishopsgate-street they would be discharged. It was stated that numbers of fellows who have found burglary an unprofitable and dangerous business are now trying their hands in making spirits for night houses end coffee-shops, and that the trade is flourishing wonderfully. A dwarf who resides in the Borough, and goes about the streets attended by a big countryman and a little boy soliciting charity, was brought up by one of the Bank porters un a charge of having bogged. The little man, who is about two feet and a half in height, and so deformed as to present a tenfold claim to charity, was, it appeared, surrounded by admirers, and ' was the cause of much obstruction in the populous neigh bourhood of the Bank. Several persona gave him pence and halfpence, and a gentleman who was passing handed him 6d. The big countryman was ready to gather to gether the profits thus flowing in, and the boy in some instances came in for a share. In ono instance the countryman and the boy had a dispute about some mo ney which a tender-hearted pasureger had supplied, and the boy having refused to give it up a row commenced, and the pickpockets of course began to join the multi tude; so that it became necessary to interfere with the trade of the firm, and to apply to the arbitration of the Lord Mayor. The LORD MAYOR —Did any ono see the little man beg? The porter, who is a tall, very strongly-built man, said he saw the dwarf hold out his hand, and ask for alms. The Dwarf —De you dare to say you saw me a beg ging? Answer me that?—(Laughter.)- Porter —I do. The Dwarf—Better mind what you say about me, or I'll make you repent, my gentleman.—(Great laughter.) The Policeman—l saw him begging along, and getting money fast. He lives in the Mint, and he gets a mint of money. The Dwarf—Don't you believe the police. They are paid for telling whoppers. The Policeman—Very dangerous obstructions are oc casioned by objects of the kind, your Lordship, and we have to endure all sorts of insults from the vagabonds who collect about them to pick pockets. The Dwarf—Oh, you! who are you?—(Laughter.) The LORD MAYOR—YOU must not come over the bridge to trouble us in the city. You must go to Bride well for fourteen days. What money had he about him? The Officer—Three-and-sixpencN and some pence, and the boy had a couple of shillings. The LORD MAYOR —A very nice trade indeed; that money will go towards their support in prison. The defendants were then committed to Bridewell for fourteen days. BOW-STREET. Thomas Erskine Souper, the secretary of the Thames Plate Glass Company, was placed at the bar before Mr. Henry, charged with embezzlement. From the statement of Mr. Freshfield, the solicitor, who attended to prefer the charge, it appeared that the prisoner had appropriated several auras of money which had been paid to him as the representative of the com pany by persons in Manchester and elsewhere, with whom business had been transacted. Finding himself unable to refund the money, he disclosed the circum stance to Mr. W. Balcome, the collector of the company, and earnestly begged him to keep the matter private until an opportunity had been given him, within a rea sonable time, to make up the amount of his defalcations. This indulgence was granted to the prisoner, who sub sequently paid in 50/. and 20/. in respect of two of the accounts which he had collected. Ile was unable, however, to provide the amount of a third account, 41/. 4s. 3d., b e f ore t h e d efalcation became known to his employers, by whose direction he was then given into custody. Mr. Freshfield stated that he only intended to call the collector on the present occasion, as a remand would be desirable, owing to the prisoner's ill health. The collector then deposed as to the admissions made by the prisoner, and his subsequent repayment of a por tion of the def a l ca ti ons , g i ving the particulars of the accounts from the company's books. Mr. HENRY animadverted upon the imprudent con duct of this witness in suffering the company to remain so long in ignorance of the prisoner's defalcations, 05. pecially as it did not appear that he had any means of knowing to what extent the prisoner hud committed them. The prisoner said he had been driven to his present misfortune by some unsuccessful railway speculations, and had hoped, in a short time, to restore the whole of the money, which ho had employed to extricate himself from other liabilities. Mr. HENRY remanded him for a week. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. Mr. Pennington, who attended on Friday to complain of the conduct of the police in stopping his four-horse drag in Pall-mall, as the Queen was goinw to the Opera, came to the C our t to apologise to Mr. ' Hardwick for having, as stated in the papers, presumed to differ from the opinion of the magistrate. He declared that he had no intention whatever of offering the slightest disrespect to the Court, nor did he mean to convey any expression contrary to the opinion expressed by the magistrate. SHOCKING CASE OF MURDER—COM MITTAL OF THE MURDERER. W?LVERHAMPTON, SATU RDAY.—Yesterday (Friday) saor . ning a young man, named James Jones, was brought up in custody, and placed before Joseph Walker, Esq., the mayor, and William Warner, Esq., charged with the wilful murder of Catherine Morris, with whom he had cohabited, by cutting her throat. The accused is about 32 years of age, a labourer or navigator. The following is a summary of the evidence taken:— John Lawson, a boatman, living at the back of the Brown Bear, Litchfield -street, said that the prisoner in the dock, and also the deceased, lodged in the same house, as well as three other females. Matthew White house was the landlord. lie had known the prisoner about 10 or 11 days. A few days since he heard the de ceased tell the prisoner that'she did not want to have any thing more to do with him, but added that she would never see him want a meal of victuals. They were then at variance with each other, and he said, if she did not mind her P' s an d Q' s he would snake a public show before he went out of the town. On Monday night last witness was in the kitchen of the Brown Bear, when the deceased was sitting at the side of him. The prisoner then came in and asked for hi e things. The deceased took off a handkerchief she was wearing, and, placing it on the table, said, " Here's your handkerchief; now go into the house, and S a ll y will give you the remainder of the things belonging to you." The prisoner replied, T" hNeed,ecleasshedant'th you come and go along with me." then got and went with him.

THE R usslAN H EMP TRADE. — A dispute bas arisen between the English and Russian merchants, re garding the band s pl ac ed round hemp for export not being of the same quality as the ha l e. Th e Russians have been in the p ract i ce for many years of placing round even the finest Polish hemp bands made of codilla hemp; a nd as these usually weigh about 301b5., some idea may thus be formed of the loss hitherto sustained by the English buyer. Tho merchants not feeling disposed to submit any longer to rhe imposition, appealed this spring to the civil authorities for redress; and, we b elieve, have succeeded in this instance in carrying their point. Whether the Russian dealers, how ever, will acquiesce in the decision, has yet to be seen. As it is, the lath has caused considerable detention to the shipping, especially to such as were engaged to wait the hemp brake.—Montrose Standard. ,RIAL OF COUNT AND COUNTESS DE B 0 CARME. The Procureur du Roi, in the sitting of the Court of Assizes of Mons, on Fridayiterminated his requisitory ; i% he contended, as on tho previous day, that all the eir -2 cumstances that preceded, accompanied, and followed the 73i crime, proved that it had been planned and executed by both the accused. M. de Paepe, advocate of do Bocarme, then pro - ceeded to address tho jury. He complained of the prejudice which had been created against his client by publications, but expressed a hops that the jury would t ". only decide according to justice. He said that he would not attempt to defend the morality of the accused, but that it should be remembered that he had been born at the Cape of Good Hope, was brusque and rude in man _ ner, cunning and distrustful in character—that, in fact, ho sti was a sort of savage grafted on a European ; and this, he - asserted, would account for many of the circumstances al leged against him—such as his taking false names ; when he bought venomous plants and chemical instils - ments, &c. He then proceeded to argue that it was impossible that a man of the Count's cunning and pru dence could have resolved, for months before, to 1 ". kill Gustavo Fougnies by poison, and yet - let him know that he was constantly engaged in making experiments with poisons. He con tended that it the Count and Countess had perpetrated the murder in the way alleged iu the iudictment, they must have been raving mad, and more fit for Bedlam than the scaffold—for it really seemed that every act had been done to attract attention. He maintained that the version of the Count was the true one—the only probable one, via,. that deceased had t a k en th e mixture by mistake, from a bottle which the Count had imprudently allowed to remain in the cellar, and which his wife had by mistake placed on the table. The statements of the medical men, that deceased must have taken the poison when lying on the ground were, ho observed, no doubt erroneous; but it was probable that ho had fallen immediately after having swallowed the deadly draught, and this would account for some of the liquor having fallen on his neck and mouth, and left scars. He denounced the Countess in vehement terms for having, in the hope of saving herself, accused her husband, and maintained that all she had said against him was false. The Count, he said, had acted generously to her, for he had laid nothing to her charge, and he hoped that even now she would not refuse the hand he extended to her, but admit that she had spoken untruly. One proof that her statements were false was that she bad tenderly caressed her husband whilst deceased was lying on the floor, and it was not in human nature to have done so, if, as she said, he had just before murdered her own brother. The Learned Gentleman had not concluded when the Court adjourned at a quarter past one. The Countess do Bocarme appeared raid. I p rice, completely overwhelmed by wh a t th e P rocureur du Roi I and her husband's counsel said against her. CONDEMNATION OF COUNT BOCARME. The following telegraphic dispatch was received in Paris yesterday:— On Saturday evening Count Bocarre4 was condemned to death. The Countess was acquitted. “MURDER WILL OUT.” The rumours prevalent for the last few days as to }6 the discovery of a long concealed and most atrocious murder in this county have proved quite true. The i ''' following are the particulars:—About a fortnight since a woman named Mary Fleming, residing at Kilkeasy, went to Constable Read, of the Huggins -town station, and stated her wish to disclose to him a secret which had te© long disquited h er m i n d . Sh e went on to say that one . I night, sometime between the 25th of December, 1847, and the Ist of January, 1848, she chanced to pass the door of John Walsh, at Castlegannon, and turned f or the purpose o f go i ng i n, but drew back in terror upon beholding the body of Walsh's brother-in-law, Thomas '36 % Ball, a cow-jobber lying dead an d covered with blood on the floor, and Walsh and his daughter making ready to Aremove it by th e b ac k d oor. She contrived to get away without being observed, and upon reaching home in , formed her husband of what she had beheld. He rX strictly enjoined her never to divulge the circum stances, and during his life she kept the pledge. On inquiry the constable found many circumstances to 1% corroborate this s t range story, for .11111 had been scud- Oa denly missed from the locality at the period indicated, and i% when he was known to have had with him a large sum 9 s of money. It h a d, h owe ver, been supposed th a t h e went ~• privately to America. Walsh and his dau g ht er were ar ;' rested and committed for further examination by Mr. J. es de Montmorenoy, J.P., and a search having been made ,t l / 4 1 at the house at Castlegannon, a skeleton was actually 6d discovered buried at a f ew yards ' distance from t the back door. There is but little room left for Od doubt that this was the body of Ball, who had been murdered for the sake of the money he was known to have in his possession. An inquest was held on the remains on Monday last by Mr. T. Izod, coro ner, when the following verdict (on which Walsh was fully committed for trial on the charge of murder) was returned:—" That the said deceased was discovered , 34 dead in an old yard, late in the occupation of John Walsh, on the lands of Knockmoylaa, on Tuesday last; that said deceased's skull was extensively fractured on both temples with a blunt or some such weapon, feloniously and of malice aforethought, by him the said ,'4 John Walsh, late of Castlegannon, aided and assisted ' s ‘ therein by a person or persons unknown; and that the said murder appears to have been perpetrated on or about the close of the year 1847."—Kilkenny Moderator 14 IRISH FISHERIES. The Bill brought into the House of Commons by Mr. Conelly and Colonel Taylor, to consolidate and amend the several Acts relating to the Irish fisheries, proposes to repeal all previGua Acts, and that this should servo as a substitute for them, under the title of the a Irish Fisheries Act."

LivearooL, JUNE 14.—The feeling in the trade to-day is firm, and the prices of yesterday fully supported. MANCHESTER., JUNE 14.—During the week a more lively feeling has appeared in the trade hero than has been expe rienced for some time past, all articles having met an improved vale at gradually advancing prices. The arrivals of English and Irish produce at Liverpool and Runcorn are exceedingly light ; but from abroad the imports of wheat, beans, and flour are to a fair extent, and of Indian corn very large. At our market this morning a further amendment in the tone of the trade was observable ; buyers appeared more desirous of going into stock than of late, but business was somewhat checked by the high pretensions of holders. Nevertheless wheat must be. noted 2d to 3d per 701 b.• fresh English flour fully Is, and French 6d per sack, and barrels is per 1901b.' higher than on this day se'nnight ; whilst oats commanded Id per 451 b, sod oatmeal 6d to is per load more money. of NOTTINGHAM, JUNE 14.—We had a very supplysmalll wheat at market to-day, and all fine qualities were ready sale at an advance of 2s per qr ; secondary samples realized Is per qr. more.

A very large suPPI to 2ls of lamb,, 'and very dull sales—prices varying from 8, 465, current each. Pigs and calves at last week's rates. There were some English buyers in our market. CORK, JUNE 13. The arrivals of foreign grain since our last have been rather numerous. Some vessels have discharged here but the larger number, having merely " called for orders," either have sailed or will sail for other ports. Although the advices from Mark Lane are firmer, the effect of the arrivals noticed has been to prevent any very decided advance in this market. We have, be T in consequence, but little change to notice in the trade. '— supply of home trade continues very trifling. The receipts for the week are, of wheat 48 barrels, barley 27 barrels, and oats 406 barrels. In prices there is no chap e. The transactions in price foreign wheat have been to a cognsiderable extent, but at prices varying little from those of last week, any difference however, being in favour of the seller. We may quote the article 64 to 9el per barrel dearer. Of Egyptian we have none in the market. Of barley there arc no stocks held here. As regards oats, as we mentioned last week, the stocks held here are in the hands of two or three parties, who look to realise a profit, which tends to check business. We quote black oats 12s, white oats, 12s 6d to 12s 9d per barrel, free on board. For flour we experience an improved demand, and some parties are looking for an advance, whieh, however, they have not ate obtained, Coarse descriptions continue to sell freely. 111,6 sale of Indian corn has evidently been affected by the late wel come rains, and the cheering appearance and prospects of the potato crop. The business passing is consequently rather re stricted, and ,the purchases made are only for the supply of immediate wants. We have no Galatz corn in the market. We quote French and Portuguese 71 12s 6d to 7115 s per ton. Barrels. Currency.
