(Prom the Manchester Guardian of this day. ) MANCHESTRB, PuwAT.—That we have a demand fully equal to the supply, both in yarns at large and in most descriptions of cloth except domestics, is evident from the fact of the production having been for a considerable time back more or less fpre-engaged. It is natural, therefore, that prices should have been recovering of late from the reaction which followed the last merely spe culative rise, and followed it (as usually happens in such cases) with a force that carried the reduction somewhat further than was required by the existing proportion between supply and demand. During the last three weeks our market exhibited a gradual upward tendency. The American circulars, with their reduced estimates, produced little effect ; yet, by the end of last week, sel lers had succeeded in quietly realising an average ad vance of Id. per lb. During this tine, the Liverpool cotton market was keeping a head of yarns in the same course. At the beginning of this week, however, the appli ances referred to seemed likely to prove more effective. We were advised of a falling off of 18,000 bales in the week's receipts, and of an active state of business at New Orleans and Mobile, with a rise of lc. to -lc. per lb. in the quotations at New York. The Liverpool market became rather excited on Monday, when the sales were 10,000 bales, and an additional id. per lb. was asked, and in some instances paid. A similar impulse was im parted to our own market. Spinners demanded at least another fd. per lb.; and the makers of shirtings and printing cloths made a corresponding requirement. This was too much for the buyers, who could neither see any reason for the reduced estimates of the crop on the other side of the Atlantic, nor forget the issue of that fic titious rise on this side which terminated at the close of October; and, therefore, although willing to pay the ad vance which they had hesitated about giving a few days before, they were not disposed to fall in with this further enhancement of terms; so that the business of Tuesday was effected at rates little if at all exceeding the highest named by sellers on Saturday last, which was the dearest day in the week. GLASGOW, Foinex.—Early in the week our cotton market was firm, and a good business done at an advance of id. per lb. on the prices of Friday last. Latterly, there has been less doing, and the market closes without animation at last week's rates. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY.—Business to-day has been brisk in the cloth hall. Goods of any kind of low make meet with ready purchasers, at about medium prices, perhaps scarcely as remunerative as the manufacturers would wish, considering that raw materials are on an ad vance of price. Stocks are kept extremely low, and some good order have been given, mostly in low quali ties. On the whole, a very good trade is being done throughout the district. Most of the shipping houses have been very busy during the week. BRADFORD, THURSDAY.—WooIs—The past week has been one of careful inquiry and watching among the spinners, but their purchases have been exceedingly limited. The prices sought are a complete barrier to business, and the whole trade seems to watch the opening of the wool sales, fixed for the tenth, in London, with more than ordinary interest. The increased rate of dis count and uncertainty of large buying for foreign account, with a large quantity offering, gives, and properly so, a strong feeling of caution to those requiring colonial wools. In mohair, alpaca, and English wool, the supply is far short of the quantity held twelve months ago, au with out a very close eurtailing of the spindles, there is but little if any hope of any ease in price this side of clip day. Yarns—The great difference in the cost of yarns is now acting as a drawback with the manufacturers for Lanca shire; and as they are usually dull in Jan. and Feb. they are disinclined to buy at the present prices, until they are compelled, by having used up old contracts, or getting orders to justify them. The same applies also with our Manufacturers for this market, and it is too early for the shippers to buy for Germany or Russia; yet, notwith standing this, there is no accumulation of stocks, but a general complaining of the bad return of bobbins, and ir regularity in the working of the machinery. Prices for all continue without change. It is just 28 years this day since the last demonstration was made in hono ur ofßishopElaize: that was certainly a very imposing scene, but since then the progression has been great to substitute the doings of the good old patron saint ; and despite the great in crease of the worsted trade, we now doubt whether there are twice the number of hand-combers than at the period of the last great show. Pieces—There is a good deal of inquiry for something new, and all are anxious for fresh novelties for the seasoa drawing on. Cireassians and mixtures are still the favourites ; the cost at which they are now made deters the merchants from ordering freely, but so great has the advance been on twofold warps, bright-haired wool, alpaca and mo hair, that great difficulties are before the manufacturers to cover cost, and • this class are not freely made. In other goods there is no change.—Bradford Observer. NOTTINGHAM, THURSDAY.—There is not much altera tion for the better in the lace trade ; at least, not so much as we anticipated by this time. However, the period is rapidly approaching when a further improve ment may reasonably be expected. The hosiery trade is still good, and of it no just complaint need be made. There is not any alteration in the price of yarn.— Nottingham Journal. FRENCH AND ENGLISH NAVIES. We have endeavoured, with all possible impar tiality, to obtain trustworthy information on the subject : and having received the French naval estimates for the year 1854, submitted by the Government to the Council of State, but not yet published, or even adopted, we think it will be a relief to our countrymen to be able to com pare them with the naval expenditure of the current year, and of the last year of the reign of Louis Philippe. The estimates appear to us wholly to negative the idea of great preparations on the part of France—for though they show an increase upon 1853, the increase is not great not a quarter so great as the increase of our own naval estimates —and we are solemnly assured by men of high station in France that, such as it is, the increase is the consequence (instead of being the cause) of the naval preparations of England. The French naval budget for 1854 slightly exceeds that for 1853, viz., 3,814,054 francs (152,5621. sterling) ; but'hat it is still 16,046,865 francs (641,8741. sterling) below the naval expenditure of 1848. The French naval expenditure has been as follows : Francs. £ sterling. Naval expenditure of 1848 ...r,115,679,720 or 4,627,188 Do. do. 1853 ... 95,818,801 or 3,832,752 Estimates for 1854 ... 99,632,855 or 3,985,314 Now what is the naval expenditure of England ? In the year ended Jan. 5, 1852, it was 5,849,9161. T4at April Mr. Disraeli stated the naval estimates I% the coming year at 6,493,0001. And in his finan cial statement of Dec. 3 he announced an increase of 600,0001. in those estimates. We believe these amounts include the cost of the Post-office packet service, which (if we recollect ri g ht) i s some thi ng like 600,0001. or 700,0001.; but it must be borue in mind that a considerable number of the ocean steam-packets are capable of being used as ships of war, and are subsidised by the Government with the avowed intention that they should be so used. Moreover part of the Ordnance expenditure belongs to the naval department ; so that we believe the navy estimates may safely be taken at the full amount given under that head for the year, and even beyond it. There was a gradual and im portant reduction in the Navy expenditure from 1847 to 1851, but since that time there has been a very rapid increase Navy expenditure for 1847 PP 1848 PP 1849 PP 1850 1851 Then came the turn, when an alarm sprung up of possible invasion ; and the following are the results Iv— Navy expenditure for 1851 PP 1852 9, 1853 Now it will be .seen that the expenditure on the English navy very far exceeds that on the French ; and that the recent augmentation in the former very far exceeds the recent augmentation in the latter. ENGLISH AND FRENCH NAVAL EXPENDITURE. ENGLIBH. FRENCH, Years. Years. 1848 1851 1852 6,493,000 1854 I 1853 The proportions of the expenditure (looking at the latest estimates for each country) are as 56 for France to 100 for England . A n d whilst France has made an addition of 152,5621. to her naval expenditure, England made an additi on of 643,084/. for 1852, and of an additional 600,0001 . for 1853. Then, as to the number of seamen in the respective navies, it is 42,000 in the English and 22,000 i n the French. In the month of December, 5,000 were added to the number of our seamen, and 1,500 to our marines. The augmentation of the navy then, we believe, has been immensely greater on the side of England than on the side of France. On the whole, we see not the shadow of a proba bility of an invasion; and we are persuaded that Mr. Cobden's 10,0001., to be paid to General Brotheptl_w an invasion, is as safe as any money in ?itlY f ,.sparteut the United Kingdom. —Leeds NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. DEATH OF THE SENIOR OFFICER OF THE ROYAL NAVY. We regret to state that Commander Charles Robinson. the senior commissioned officer of the Royal Navy, and the senior commander of Greenwich Hospital, died on Thursday, at the Royal Establishment. This veteran officer served afloat during the war for nearly 20 years. He entered the navy in April, 1767, as captain's servant, on board the Fury, Captain Mark Bobinson, under whom after serving for more than six years on the coast of North America—he was employed on the home station, as midshipman in the Worcester, 64, and Shrewsbury, 74, from November, 1774, until made lieutenant, Feb. 12, 1780, into the Terrible, Captains John Douglas and John Dixon, attached to the force in the West In dies. He was placed on half-pay in June of the latter year, and was subsequently appointed in Feb ruary 1781, and March, 1782, to the Shrewsbury, Captains Mark Robinson John Colpoys, and John Knight ; and the Nymph, Captains John Ford and Edward Knatchbull, in which vessels he again, until June, 1783, served on the American and West India stations—June 24, 1790, to the Swiftsure, 74, Captain Sir James Wallace, with whom he continued, in the channel, until October, 1791, and January 23, and November 14, 1793, to the Princess Royal, 98, and Victory, 100, flag-ships of Admirals Samuel Cranston Goodhall and Lord Hood, in the Mediterranean, where he was present at the occupation of Toulon. On April 5, 1794, he was made commander into the Scout, 16, in which vessel he was captured by two French frigates off Bona, is the following August. He was restored to liberty, we believe, in Nov., 1795, and did not after wards go afloat. He was admitted into the Royal Hospital at Greenwich, Aug. 27, 1840. One of his sons, Charles Cowling Robinson, is a lieutenant, R.N., and another, Daniel Robinson, a first lieutenant, R.M., and a colonel in the Spanish service. Another son is the eminent surgeon-dentist of Gower street, whose professional works and professional fame stand high, not only in this, but in other countries. Commander Josiah Thompson (1838), has been ap pointed to the Monarch, 84, ordinary guard-ship, at Sheerness, vice Commander Price. Surgeon—Robert Willcox (1852), has been appointed to the Spitfire, surveying steam-vessel, Mediterranean. Master's Assistant—H. C. Sedmond, to the Desperate, screw-corvette, Plymouth. PRIZE MONEY FOR THE RATTLER.—Messrs. Chard have given notice to the officers and crew of her Ma jesty's ship Rattler, A. Cumming, -Esq., commander, that an account of the sale proceeds and of the bounty money on the tonnage of the Volusia, slave ,brigantine, captured on the 2d July, 1850, and also of the sale pro coeds and bounty money on the tonnage of the Emerald, slave brigantine, captured on the 7th July, 1850, will be deposited in the registry in the registry of the High Court of Admiralty, on or before the Ist of March next. agreeably to act of Parliament. PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 4. DUKE OF WELLINGTON, 131, SCREW LINE-OF-BATTLE SHlP.—This morning, at eleven, Rear-Admiral Superin tendent Fanshaw (Commander-in-Chief, pro tem.), ac companied by Captain Henry Byam Martin, C. 8., visited the above noble ship ; and at 11.15 Captain Mar tin hoiited his pendant on board the largest man-of-war in the world. _ She is to have a complement of 1,100 men and officers. The ship is masted, and a large body of dockyard riggers, assisted by a strong force of seamen and marines from the Neptune, ordinary guard-ship, com menced rigging her yesterday. The machinery depart ment of the vessel stands thus :—Her cylinders, bed plates, valves, and air-pumps are already in the vessel, and in their places ; the boilers are not in, but they will be ready by the time the vessel returns to the steam basin. The shafting and driving gear are nearly com pleted, and, with the great strength put upon her by the energetic exertions of the steam-factory department, under Mr. Murray. we have no doubt she will be ready for a steam trial in the beggining of April. Prince Regent, 90, flag of Rear-Admiral Corry, Cap tain Hutton, came into harbour at 10 a.m., in tow of the Bull-dog, 6, Commander George H. Gardner, of the Blenheim, and the Echo, steam-tug, lashed to her port side. As soon as she got over the bar, the Bull-dog cast off, and left the Prince Regent to the Echo, and the assistance of her jib, spanker and foretopmast-staysail. She was placed alongsid e th e Blake, receiving hulk. The Bull-dog went up the harbour, and laid herself broadside on with the Powerful. Fairy, yacht, Master Commander D. Welsh, steam tender to the Victoria and Albert, went out of harbour at 11.30 to prove her machinery. To-morrow she makes trial of the new propeller patented by Griffiths. Gorgon, 6, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, has hauled over to the south side of the steam-basin to receive her boilers. Growler, 6, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, has hauled over from the east to the west landing of the steam-basin to receive her repairs from the steam-factory. Conflict, 8, screw-steam-sloop, has set up her main rigging, and is getting her topmasts on end, and other wise progressing. Leopard, 16, steam-frigate, Captain George Giffard, is all ready for service, and is expected to go out of har bour to-morrow. Princess Royal, 90, screw line-of-battle ship, has as many shipwrights and caulkers as can possibly work on her, and every dispatch is being made towards her com pletion. The Banshee, steam-packet, Lieutenant-Commander Hosken, has been taken into No. 7 dock. The steam-transport, Risadamanthus, Master-Corn manding Belau', sailed yesterday with stores for Ply. mouth, as did also the store-ship Diligence. WOOLWICH, FEB. 4. APPOINTMENTS, Surgeon Robert Wilcox (1851), from the Coast Guard service, to the Spitfire, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, sta tioned at Malta. Master's-Assistant H. C. Sedmond, to the Desperate, screw steam-sloop, at Plymouth. Commander Hon. George H. Douglas, of the Cruiser steam-sloop, " is quite convalescent, and will join that vessel at Portsmouth in about eight or ten days from the present time. It is expected she will proceed for service on the Mediterranean station. The pay clerks from the Admiralty went down to Sheerness to pay the crew of the Agamemnon, 90, that screw steam-ship being now ready for sea. PLYMOUTH, FIB. 3. Major-General Sir Harry Smith arrived by special train last evening, and has taken on himself the com mand-in-chief of the western district. Admiral Sir John A. Ommanney and Commodore Superintendent Seymour paid an official visit to the general this morning at Mores head's Hotel. We regret to state that the sloop Ocean, from Shore ham, bound to Plymouth, laden with wheat, was, last evening, lost on the breakwater. She came in about seven o'clock, it being very dark, and the master, being a stranger to the port, thought the light to be on the east end instead of the west end of the breakwater ; consequently he run directly on it, and there being a heavy swell she was forced thereon. Fortunately, she was discovered by the men at the lighthouse, who communicated with the Tovy, harbour master's yacht, and by their assistance the crew, two men and a boy, were saved, but the vessel has become a total wreck. The smack is what is usually termed a billyboy, hailing from Boston, and it appears nearly all of her belongs to the master, whose name is Gostello, and she is not in sured. CHATHAM, FEB. 4. The Castor, 36, Commodore Christopher Wyvill, ar rived here this morning, on her return from the Cape of Good Hope, where she has been stationed as flag-ship for upwards of three years, having been commissioned at this port for that service on May 7, 1849. The Castor was towed up the Medway by two steamers from Sheerness, and immediately on her arrival, Commodore Wyvill landed in his gig, and visited Captain-Superintendent Peter Richards, C.B. The Commodore, accompanied by Captain R. B. Watson, C. 8., then went over a part of the dockyard to witness the Cressy, 80, the Euryalus, 50, the Hood, 80, the Irresistible, 80, the Majestic, 80, the Orion, 80, the Severn, 50, making a total of five 80-gun ships of large tonnage, and two 50-gun frigates building in this dockyard, and all being prepared for screw steam-ships, and the Royal George, 120, also in dock for the purpose of being converted into a screw steam guard-ship. The Imperieuse, 50, screw steam-frigate, Capt. Rundle Burge* Watson, C. 8., is progressing very fast in her. equip ment. The topsail and lower yards are across, and one bending suit of sails ready, and the salt provisions stowed away, and a great portion of the sea stores on board. The gun gear is all ready for the guns, and some very good men have been picked up, and amongst them seve ral excellent seamen, recently paid off from the Phaeton, 50, at Sheerness. Several are also expected to join from the Castor, on that vessel being paid off at this port on Mon day, the 14th inst. The Imperieuse has now about 380 on her books, but amongst that number there are a few " loose fish," which the captain will get rid of as soon as possible, as they were not selected by himself or any of his officers, but sent from some of the rendezvous about town, and quite worthless, and, as the good sailors say, they " find nothing too heavy to lift with their light fingers." The frigate appears to the eye to be power fully masted, and her yards are large, but as all the officers and the men who will be retained to serve in this fine screw steam-ship consider themselves in the working class, they are delighted with the rig and noble appearance of the Imperieuse, and anticipate, with the greatest satisfaction, the manner in which they will handle and work her when they get her to sea. Shortly. after 11 o'clock to-day, Commodore Wyvill, accompa nied by Captain Watson, went on board the Hussar, receiving ship, where the officers and crew of the Im perieuse are accommodated while the fittings of the frigate are being completed by the shipwrights. A. general muster took place in the presence of the Com modore, and the whole of the crew passed singly for his inspection. The surgeon and assistant-surgeon have a Comparatively sinecure office at present, there being very few on the sick-list, and the whole appear a healthy and muscular body of men, with some very active boys. The Royal Marines are all a remarkably fine body of men. The Imperieuse is 2,350 tons, or within, or only about from 300 or 400 tons less than several of the 120-gan ships of former days. The Wildfire, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, arrived in the afternoon from Sheerness. TO THE EDITOR OT THE MORNING HERALD.

SuGAIL—The market remains in a firm position, and the quantity of colonial brought forward has not exceeded tho wants of home dealers, which is equal to the previous - creek, and imports are not larger. Foreign is much re quired, both by exporters and the home trade, prices hay ing rather an upward tenden c y. P rev i ous t erms are lwell maintained for all descriptions of West India, there having been a fair demand ; low to fine brown at 31s to 345, ord to fine yellow 34s fid to 398 ; and refining 32s to 375. To day there was no public sale of any kind of sugar, yet the market for colonial presented a dull aspect. West India was dealt in with reluctance, still prices are not lower than last Friday. Purchases are only 210, making for the week 1,698 hhds &c., but durin g th a t ti me 800 hhds have been sold out oesecond hands. REFlNED. — Previous terms are well sustained for refined sugar, home dealers having been ready buyers, and supply is moderate, especially of low an d m id sorts. The rates ob tained for brown lumps have been 44s 6d to 455, tittlers, low to fine 45s 6d to 495, double 50s to 525, Hambro loaves 46s to 50s, double 51s to 535, and standard lumps 46s 6d per cwt. Bastards continues to lie much wanted, and the currency is firm; brown at 27s 6d to 31s 6d, and yellow 32s to 35s 6d. A free sale exists for pieces ; fine at 40s to 41s 6d, and common to good 36s to 398 6d. In wet lumps large transactions have taken place; fine at 43s 5d to 44s 6d, and other sorts 42s to 435. Treacle is much required, and there is a further advance, supply not increasing. Sales of boiled from West India molasses at 16s 9d to 17s, patent 17s 6d to 18s ; and golden syrup 18s 6d to 19s. To-day refined sugar was purchased with caution for home consumption—brown lumps at 44s 6d, and low to fine gro cery 45s to 47s 6d per cwt. Prices rather incline down wards for crushed. MAURITIUS.-Purchases have been of importance, and previous terms are well sustained, the lower sorts having been most in request. At auction 10,854 bags were dis prood of ; fine brown at 33s 6d to 345, low to middling yellow 34s 6d to 35s 6d, good 36s to 36s 6d, fine 37s to 38s 6(1, ordinary to fine refining 338 6d to 37s 6d, grainy white 41s to 43s 6d, fine yellow ditto 39s to 40s 6d, and other sorts 36s to 38s 6d. This afternoon Mauritius sugar met with little notice privately. EAST INDIA.-A large business has been transacted in Bengal daring the week, and full terms are obtained, es pecially for soft brown and yellow. Including parcels at public sale, transactions amount to 8,000 bags at the fol lowing terms :-Grainy white at 40s to 445, good to fine yellow ditto ns to 398 6d, low to mid 35s 6(1 to 37s 6d, brown 33s to 358 ; Benares, good to fine white 38s ad to 40s, low to mid 36s to 38s, soft brown 26s 6d , to 28s 6d, yellow ditto 29s to 345, low to mid like Mauritius 34s to 35s 6d, and better sorts 36s to 37s 6d. Stock is 3,000 tons under the previous season. Madras is in limited supply, and much wanted, previous prices being well kept up. To-day there was no change in the currency of Bengal or Madras, yet privately few parcels were sold. FOREIGN.-Five cargoes of brown have been sold-Bahia at 19s to 19s 6d, and Pernams 18s to 18s 3d ; white is wanted at 22s to 24s ; yellow Havannah, numbers 10A to 16, at 208 6d to 248 6d ; brown, at 208 to 20s 3d fOr 9 to 10 ; and white, 27 s t o 28 s per cwt ; at present, however, t ail her s e or a: s e . no sellers . da There is a good demand for duty paid parcels, and last week's currency is well supported for th and refiningercwereseve in the ralbuyersof foreign sugar, both for exportation United Kingdom, but b us i ness was much interfered with by the refusal of holders to accept previous prices. MOLASSES. -There is still a good demand, and supply being scantyy, stiff prices are obtained. Sales of Cuba made at 16s to 17s St. Vincents and Antigua, 17s to 17s 6d, other sorts of West India 16s to 16s 6d, Bengal and Mau ritiuscor 15s to 1:: 6d per cwt.

MANSION -HOUSE.—Thomas Golden Valle, the first mate of the Pekin on her voyage from Columbia to England, who was charged upon suspicion of having caused the death of Doyle, a Sandwich Islander, one of fifteen natives who were engaged to navigate the vessel, was brought up for re-examination. The prosecution has been instituted by the directors of the Hudson's Bay Company, whose agent having en tered into a bond to send back the foreigners to their own country, it was found upon inquiry that one was missing ; in consequence of which the rest of the crew were questioned, and it was ascertained that the missing man had expired on board under circumstances of great suspicion. Tom, one of the witnesses, upon whose information that the first mate had struck Doyle with a piece of wood and a rope, and that Doyle was disabled by that violent treatment, never spoke afterwards, and died next morn ing, the warrant was granted, was put in the box. The Rev. Mr. Ellis attended as interpreter, and the exami nation, which varied in no respect from the statement made upon the application for the warrant, was neces sarily tedious and unimportant. The manner of the witness certainly seemed to cause a general belief in the court that he really stated what he considered to be facts. On his oross-examination, Tom said : I was in the rigging when Doyle fell on the deck, and I was going up to the maintop when the prisoner beat him with the rope. vessel was astern when the pi ,soner beat the man with the rope, and did not see him to so. The Captain did not know of the striking of Doyle with the rope after he fell. I know Mr. Cumming, the second mate. Ile was up with us in the rigging when Doyle fell on the deck, and when the prisoner beat him with the rope. We were aloft at the time of the beating with the rope, reef ing at the top. I had not been aloft before the prisoner beat Doyle with the wood. I was on one side, and Mr. Loftus, the third mate, was on the same side, and Mr. Cumming was on the other side. I was the last man up the rigging before Doyle. I saw the prisoner take the wood with which he beat Doyle from the upper deck, and I saw him take the rope from the side of the ship, where it lay coiled up. I saw the prisoner come down the rigging after the beating had taken place. I do not recollect Doyle being about a month before, nor do I recollect his being missed from duty, or being found between the decks apparently dead. Doyle complained of having a pain in one foot, otherwise Ido not know that he was ill. He was much the same as the rest of us as to being dirty or clean. [Some laughter was caused by the difficulty which the interpreter found in this passage of the evidence, there being no word in the language of the Sandwich Isles to express the meaning of either filth or its contrast.] We all slept down below. We did not turn out Doyle from the place in which we slept. I did not beat Doyle, for he was a great man, and I had never se en an y o f th e others beat him. We never took Doyle's food. He would sometimes give me some food, or we would give food to one another. The captain did not put Doyle by himself to eat his food. The other men did not steal his food. I have been in prison in my own country once. It was for riding on a horse—not for stealing a horse. The Lord Mayor said that as it would be necessary to pursue the investigation, and a considerable time must still be occupied in the investigation, he would adjourn the case. Mr. Mullens said he had no objection upon the part of the prisoner, but he took that opportunity of declaring that more gross misrepresentations could not have been made than had been made by those who accused his client. The facts would be found to be, and there was no foundation whatever for the charge; that .the de ceased was a man of such filthy and lazy habits that his own countrymen could not endure him, and had refused to let him mess with or sleep among them ; and he had been found between decks after having gorged himself with food, as it was believed, which he had stolen, and upon being ordered up the shrowds with the other men when there was necessity for considerable exertion he refused to do the duty ; that the chief mate had refrained from punishing him for his breach of duty, and merely tied him up for a short time ; and that he came down upon the deck himself, without being treated with the least violence by an one. It was the fact, too, and would be proved, beyond all question, that the com rades of the deceased had refused to carry him doWn when he was ill upon deck ; and that his illness was pro bably occasioned by his exposure to the weather, from which he suffered, on account of the objection which the rest of the crew entertained to his presence amongst them in the proper place for repose. The prisoner was then remanded, and bail having been accepted for his future appearance, he was permitted to leave the justice-room. GUILDHALL.-- We are requested to state, with re gard to the practice complained of at this court by Alder man Copeland and Sir James Duke, of putting the names of several defendants in one warrant of distress, and charg ing each one for that warrant, that Mr. Wood, the chief clerk, said that this was the practice of the Commission ers of Sewers, but was not the general practice. BOW-STREET.—Yesterday was appointed for the re-examination of the man Fitzgerald, on the charge of attempting to murder his wife, on Saturday night, in Angel-court, Strand. Since the prisoner's last examination, it was thought necessary to take his wife depositions at King's College Hospital ; but she has on all occasions, when questions were put to her, endeavoured to free the prisoner from blame, and refuses to make any statement that can in any way bring the offence home to him. It is now hoped that death will not result from her wounds. The prisoner was again remanded. SOUTHWARK.—Joseph Miles, a bricklayer, was placed at the bar charged with a brutal assault on Ann, his wife. The complainant, with difficulty, ascended the witness box, in consequence of the injuries inflicted on her per son by the prisoner, and a certificate was handed to the magistrate describing that her body was bruised nearly from head to foot. She stated that on the previous evening the prisoner returned home, and in consequence of her not having his supper ready for him the moment he came in, he began to abuse her. She accounted for the delay by telling him that their little girl was longer in fetching the things she required than she ought to have been. This, however, instead of appeasing him, made him more violent, and he began to kick her and to beat her with his fists. She implored for mercy, but instead of listening to her supplications he snatched up a long piece of wood and commenced hitting her with it over the head, arms, shoulders, and, in fact, the whole of her body, until she fell on the floor in a state of insensibility. She added that eight years ago she was laid up in the hospital for thirteen weeks owing to the prisoner's vio lence. They had been married sixteen years, and had six children living, and she assisted in their support by selling fruit in the streets. A policeman produced the stick with which the unfor tunate woman had been beaten. It was a very for midable weapon, and had marks of blood upon it in several places. The prisoner said nothing in his defence. Mr. Combe said he should fine the prisoner 51, or commit him for two months, and his wife was or dered to receive 2s. 6d. a week out of the poor-bo until his liberation.

Viscount Wall was one of the bravest of men. One day he desired his valet-de-chambre to put up the articles of dress and toilet necessary for a short absence from Paris, and to order his carriage for an early hour next morning. At the time indicated, the post-chaise was at the door. He told his wife that he should be absent only a day or two, and stepping . into the chaise desired the postillion to drive to Fountainbleau. Hav ing arrived at Fountainbleau, he repaired to the Hotel de Turenne, where he was well known, ordered dinner, and taking his sword in his hand said he would stroll into the forest, but would be back ine,n hour or two. It was then about four o'clock. He did not return to dinner, nor that night, a circumstance which caused the proprietor of the hotel, who loved and respected him, much alarm, and induced him next morning to acquaint the authorities` of the town with the facts. He also apprised some friends of Wall, officers of the garrison, of his disappearance. A large party in consequ ence set off for the forest in the direction that Wall had taken, and there dispersed. For a considerable time their search was fruitless, but at length in a remote and un frequented part of the forest they found the dead body of Wall, nearly covered by a drift of fallen leaves. He had been run through the body. His sword lay by his side ; his purse filled with money was in his pocket • his watch in his fob. The body w as remove d to the hotel, and thence to Paris. This melancholy affair be came the topic of conversation at court, in the salons, and other assemblies of high life. I n one of them ;, friend of Wall, an Irishman of distinction, repelled the idea that he had fallen in a duel. " W all, " he said, was not surpassed as a swordsm an ; h e could not have met a superior. He was basely murdered." Next morning this person received a letter by the p etit e poste, couched in these terms :---" You s t a t e d last niht that Wall was assassinated. It i s f a l se. If you are a man of honour, and willing to have satisfaction for this imputation on your veracity, and at the same time avenge your friend, repair, alone, on Monday next, be tween the hours of two and four o'clock, to the Forest of Fontainbleau, route (naming it.) You will at a cer tain point (indicating it) find a person in a blue surtout, who on your approach will take out a pocket handker chief and put it to his face for a moment and will then strike into a path leading to a fit and proper spot for the decision of our quarrel." 'This letter was signed, "He by whose hand Wall fell." In England probably no notice would have been taken of a challenge of this kind, coming as it did anonymously; but at' the period of which I speak, persons observant of the code of honour were more fastidious. The challenged person,' con tinued Cousin Robin, sent immediately for a friend, the gallant unfortunate Theobald Dillon.' " You can not refuse this cartel" said Dillon, " but I do not like the look of it. Why require you to be unaccompanied by a friend ? It suggests strongly the idea of an ambush. You must keep the rendezvous, however, but I shall be at hand to aid you, should (as I fear) foul play be in tended and offered to you." On the day appointed, Dillon and his principal repaired to Fontainbleau. When the hour fixed drew near they walked into the forest in the direction of the point named for the meeting. On their arrival near to a turning which led immediately to it, Dillon stopped. " I can go no farther," said he, "but if you perceive anything suspicious in the manner or conduct of your antagonist, call out and I shall be with you in a few seconds." After shaking hands, the friends separated. Dillon retired, and the challenged party proceeded. On turning the corner, before arriving at which Dillon had stopped, he perceived at a distance a man standing in the middle of the road, towards whom he walked directly. When he had come within forty or' fifty yards of him, the stranger took out his handker chief, raised his hand and pointed to a path at one side, into which he struck at a quick pace. His adversary followed. Another turn was made by the leader, and another path was chosen. This was also abandoned for another, more intricate end scarcely marked. It led to the Rocher Brul6, one of the most deserted parts of the forest. The leader made another sharp -turn. The Irishman, now nearly at his heels, made a similar move ment. He had not, however, advanced three steps in this new directi on , w h en he found his collar seized by a vigorous hand. He turned to regard the assailant—it was Dillon. An exclamation escaped him. This induced his enemy to look back, who, seeing how matters stood, shook his head, waved his hand, and disappeared' in the forest. " Why did you interrupt me ?" asked the Irish man of Dillon. "To save yon from the fate of Wall. This man is obviously an assassin. Your character hitherto will secure you from any reflection on your courage. Moreover, lam living to testify to it. This affair must go no further."—Reminiscence s of an Emi grant Milesian. Export. IYear 1852, COUNTRY MARKETS. LIVERPOOL.-FEB. 4. We have again liberal arrivals of wheat, oats, flour, and oatmeal. A large majority of the grain markets of the United Kingdom likewise appear to have been overdon a by supply, and, with a limited demand prices have poi] rted downwards. At this mornings market, though the busi ness transacted was upon a small scale in any article of the grain trade, a better feeling prevailed, and the declino prices would appear to have met a firm check. I nio weather continues very mild and open for the season. WAKEFIELD—FEB. 4. Average for the week ending Jan. 31—Wheat 3,850 cll?' at 48s 54d ; barley 1,027, 34s 9?d ; oats 137, 21s 54q.- beans 97, 37s 9id ; peas, 10, 38s 6d. The arrivals of gratin reported this week are good. Wheat must be noted is to 2s per quarter cheaper, and the business passing is a limited extent ; our misers still acting in the reserve, and being generally disposed to work down their stocks, they report the flour trade very dull. Barley is per quarter. oats id per stone, and shelling 6d per load lower. BRISTOL SUGAR—FEB. 4.

Prices have been the turn lower tha a ll the market of this day se'nnight. In refined goods the TO la very little doing, but as grocers' stocks must be shrinking , some improvement may be early looked for.
