EVENING EDITIO'N. NONE I MARKET and CITY NEW S. (TUESDAY EVENING.) CHRONIC A Country Banker' complains that we do injustice to country banks of issue with less than six p4rtners, because we expressed an opinion that they should be put under the operation of the Act 7 Geo. IV., c. 46, which compels hanks of issue with snore than six partners to register the names of their partners periodically. Our Correspondent states " that for 10s. we may have an official list of the name and residence of every indi vidual in a firm issuint , notes, whether the partnership consists of one or one thousand, taken from the annual list of licenses which they are bound to furnish." He is much mistaken. The Stamp-office is not bound to furnish any such list. There is no law entitling the pub lic to ask or directing the Stamp-office to give it in re gard to country hanks of issue with less than six partners. When those banks apply for a license, it is true that they must lodge a list of their partners with the Stamp-office, and render it annually, sending also a specimen of the notes they mean to issue, in terms of the Act 55 Geo. HI. ; but there is no law requiring the Stamp-office to make these lists public. Where there arc more than six partners, however, the public have a legal right to demand a list a the eo-partnery. It is of that distinc tion we complained, on the principle that if the public interests entitled them t o such a guarantee when there were more than six partners, the same principle ought to in duce the Legislatmre of the country to consider whether equal protection ought not to be afforded, and the same publicity given, in cases of a more limited number of partners. It appeared to us that there was no good reason why the law should not apply equally to all houscs that coin money without reference to the number of partners. We are of the same opinion still, and con tinue to believe that the subject will come under the notice of the Committee on the currency. The law of banking is defective in many respects, and it is on public grounds that we have made these and previous remarks sespeeting it. HERALD.—The difference in the price of Spanish Bonds during the month has been 21 per cent., being on the Ist inst. quoted at 25+ nd to-day 221. The discovery that the propositions rhade by Count Lara were without authority may, to a certain extent, ac count for the decline ; but what are the circumstances which will account for the price they at present bear ? When the bankrupt condition of Spain was fully mani fested, the ordinary quotation was at about 10 to 12 p, , r cent. less than at present ; and how is the con dition of the bondholders ameliorated since the last arrangement ? There is now not only no prospect for the dividends being paid, but even the hope that such may be the case is quite obliterated. With a Government totally devoid of faith towards their forcip creditor, and even, did the disposition to do them justice exist, without means to satisfy them, can any one, possessed of the slightest degree of common sense, purchase any of these documents for the pur pose of investment, or with the hope of recovering any portion of their claim ? But rather, are they not bought, their utter uselessness being well known, with no other expectation than that, by raising their nominal value, they may have the chance of taking in some less wary ? If such be the case, the question naturally arises why the bonds of this and some other countries, simi larly situated, have still a sterling stamp given to them by allowing them to be quoted in the official lists of the Stock Exchange ? Whence the difference between Poyais, and others of a like kind, which long since were banished from Bartholomew-lane to the north east corner of the Royal Exchange, where the pro ceedings were felt by the respectable merchants fre quenting that place as disgraceful to them as citizens, and in the eyes of foreigners, as Englishmen? A large amount of these bonds are held by persons who pur chased them at a fair value, and in full belief in the faith of the Government, as an investment. These }lave no intention to sell them at the present price, and sacrifice the whole sum paid, but prefer taking their chance of the possibility of obtaining something from the Spanish Government. To these it cannot be of the slightest consequence whether the price still con tirried to be quoted on the Stock Exchange lists, or w Nether it be expunged. If the latter course be adented, it would do more to teach the Spanish Govern ment that the chance of taking us in again by attempt ing to raise fresh loans is quite gone ; and, if they be not quite impervious to disgrace, might perhaps induce them to enter into some arrangement (and keep it), by which at least some portion of the money lent to them, might be recovered. The ruinous consequences which have fallen upon thousands by rash speculations in these (?) securities form another and stronger reason for their expu;sion from the Stock Exchange. The re spectability of foreign funds, bonds, &c., is, to a certain e xtent guaranteed, by being sanctioned by the Committee; and those who are not well acquainted with the value a the securities are tempted to invest their property, ssnder the idea that a body of men who are always so extremely tenacious of the respectability of the persons connected with it, would be equally so of the value of the securities allowed to be dealt in there. .POST.—The Money Market has been without the s uai/test animation during the present day. Several eirseemstancos have contributed to the absence of specu• fative business, particularly the election of a Lord Mayor for the ensuing year, which has excited universal interest in the City, and taken away great numbers of members of the Stock Exchange. An important holiday amongst the Jews has also caused the absence of the leading members of that persuasion, and at the same time the speeitlators have been the more at liberty to attend the election of the Lord Mayor, as nothing whatever has transpired respecting the decision of the Cabinet Council held yesterday afternoon, and which is universally believed to have had reference to the settlement of the Eastern question, although nothing has been announced by any of the Government prints. This suppression has been greatly condemned in the City, at a time when the money markets of Europe could so easily be trim efeillised by the knowledge of the decision in the new proposals wh i ch no pet son doubts to have been made by tho Government of France, and to have been the real business before the Cabinet Council yesterday af t,rnoon. 'The eapitalivs of London are, therefore, al lower' to learn thretwh the French journals the decision of the English Cabinet nu the Eastern question, unless thte itt 7 stery be penetrated previously by the'` Distinguished Correspondent" of the Morning Post. TIMES.—Some other points besides those adverted to yesterday may he mentioned in connexion with the voyage of the Oriental steamer to Maltz!, since it has become. almost a natienal object at this time to settle the relative merits of the two modes of conveyance to ;that island, which both resolve themselves into the route to In d ia, since that is a place at which both touch he :fore proceeding to Alexandria, and, in point of fact, both mails will in this iostatice be carried from Malta to _Alexandria by the Oriental, as it would be usekss to taro steamers onward when both had reached ;Malta at the same time. But to describe more parti i4e respective performances of each on the pre ,sent occasion. The Oriental started Irom Falmouth with the mails via Gibraltar (made up in London on the :30th of August). at 2 p.m., on the 2d of Sep t.._.bcr. Pesides the difficulties of the passage, which l eve already been detailed, there was a de it seems, at Falmouth of six hours, and yet she arrived at Malta at 1 p.m. on the 12th of Sep- The Prometheus, with the London mail of tL 4 . 11 inst., via Marseilles, arrived at Malta cm the l3th, a da, liner than the Oriental, and had that vaascl made the pass -„e uue'.er ordinar.ly favourable ciscumstimees, the Prometheus would have been two Aiitc4 behind her. This occurs, as it were, in the very nf:they of this great experiment, and hence it appears, that oven with the tardy arrangements now in use, of embarking the mails at Falmouth, there is, in fact, any two days difference between the Gibraltar and toe Marseilles route. As the whole is a matter of ex t . -riinent, and as all private interezts must neces eariiy give way in such a ease as this, a trial at least it is eottutived, should he made of Southampton, as the port of departure. To apply this to the in stance of the Oriental ; had the mails been em barked at Southampton, instead of Falmouth, the Ilifference would have been reduced to a mere nothing, L e ,,,;,ese instead of the 42 hours which elapsed between the desc,ateh of the mails from the General Post-office an d t h e boa of their embarcation at Falmouth, they could have lasom placed on hoard the vessel at South ampton in three hours from the time of leaving the Pest-office, and, as the ve sse l wou ld have been only 12 boor; l onger in steaming from Southampton than from F e ! r nnuth, which nautical men affirm to be the fact, it follows that 27 hours would have been gained in the i r ansit of the ma i l s between Lo ndon and Malta, reduc ing ;he • diff e rence between the two routes t o l ess t h an one d a y, All these apparently little points become of when the object is net Only to immense gnPecirtafice i n dependent of the Continent in the render E . ng( . 4.0 th our richest colonial possessions, ca:nmunieattoni wi th but t, bring our own sea route, in point of time, on an equality with it. Ta o last iutelligence recei ved from Abyssinia is, th a t T , ni was poisoned by the v n i a n King o f o()nuebajef' cl f et ) ;:r s a l le, who had an intrigue with one of the c onsequences, committed Lis ashes, and, fearna of tin ,, t h a t he had taken this crime. The King, sobree, kind o f implment poison, at once called for a mislear , ' ; 5 cons id ere d for smokin g ), and smoked a drug w h i rls kept a secr't by an antidote, and the name of w hich is . the Abyssinians. On his recovery, and too au of the crime, who, including the principa l a he foud the , authors , cotoplices, were eight in number. Their right arms worp cut off, and they were banished to a desert mountain. while t o t h e woman nothing was done. Th e King's brother, who had been labouring under sickness, and was cured by an Armenian physician, sacked several villages the very day of his recovery, and revolted against his brother. He has since joined the of Gondar, who is the avowed enemy o f Oubie, with whom they were to go to war in the Abyssinian spring, which , is in September. Oubie is a Christian, and Ras-Ali a and . a Mahometan by turns, who on this oc casiun is promsed assistance by the Scherif and the Ulemas. Guebre Rafael, who Was at the head of 500 men, 200 of whom were armed with guns, and the rest with swords and spears, and stationed on a fertile mountain, was in rebellion against Oubie, pillaging the caravans, and c ontinually infesting the road between Gondar and Goggeni. The island of Ailifilo has been granted by Oubie to the French, and a French trading vessel loaded with various kinds of merchandise, and accompanied by a corvette of war, was expected. They were to take 22 guns as a present to Oubie, who had sent presents by M. Lefevre to the King of France. Naib-Yahya, the Sultan of Harkiko, having been very dangerously afflicted with paralysis, was cured by Sech Ali, an Abyssinian. To reward him Yahya presented him with the city Halay, enabling himself to make the gift by removing the former ruler, Filezhi, whom he put in chains with his brother and son. Naib Yahya receives 12,060 talaris annually from Mehemet Al , , for guaranteeing a safe passage to the caravans which go from Massava to Abyssinia and back. He is also bound to provide water for the caravans. M. Schimpfer, a celebrated German naturalist, travelling in Abyssinia' had been attackel vv:th a violent ophthalmia, but was recovering, and a report that he was poisoned was thus contradicted. His collection of plants and birds is described as very curious. SUN.—The City politicians were chiefly on the qui rive to-day respecting the Mayoralty election, and bets were offered, in many cases, of 3 to 1 in favour of Alderman Ilarmer's success. This afternoon the Foreign exchanges were very heavy again, the rates being as follows :—Paris, 251. 37:}c. to 40c. ; Antwerp, 12 li ; Amsterdam, 12 li- ; Frankfort, 148;"1 ; and Hamburg, 13 71 to :1. The English Stocks closed rather firmly, Consols at 871 for money, and 88 buyers for time. Exchequer Bills at ss. to 7s. premium, and India Bonds at 3s. to Gs. discount. The New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. improved to 97 to 971. The Foreign Securities were rather more dealt in. Spanish Active Bonds ranged about the same as yester day, viz., 22-i to 22i for present transfer, and 224 to 22i for the Account. Portuguese Stock did not quite support the improvement of yesterday afternoon, being quoted 331, to 321, and the Three per Cents. 22. The Old Five per Cent. Bonds were at 68i. As re spects South American Securities there is at present very little notice taken of them, but they support pretty well their previous value. Colombian Six per Cents. were done at 23, and Mexican at 25. Belgian Five per Cents. remained at 97:1. ' Danish were steady at 79. Russian advanced to 1101- to 111. In the Railway Shares there was scarcely any busi ness doing, but the range of prices was higher than yes terday or the end of last week, viz., for the Great Wes tern 17 to 18k, for the South Western 151, the New North Midland i, and the York and North Midland 17 premium. The North Midland Shares were 18 to 171, the Brighton 101 to 101, and the Eastern Coun ties 12 to 11:1 discount. London Joint-stock Bank Shares were 2, and Union Bank of Australia 61 prem.

PROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THU DAY. (From the Morning Chronicle.) The Constitutionnel discusses the eventuality of Rus sian fleets quitting the Baltic for the Mediterranean ; and asks, why not allow the Russian fleet of the Black Sea to pass the Bosphorus and the Dardanelles ? The Constitutionnel forgets the great jealousy shown of Russian fleets passing before Constantinople—a jea lousy, the exciting of which is avoided by the Russian ships coming through the Straits of Gibraltar. All the Constitutionnel says is, that " if the Russians make an invasion into the Mediterranean, it will be a fresh cause for France increasing her vigilance, and hold ing herself ready for all eventualities." If there be anything in the presence of a Russian fleet in the Mediterranean objectionable to France, that country has to thank for it merely its own foolish boastings, and armaments and ordonnances. But the necessary consequence of the intimidation-po licy of the French Foreign Minister is, that other Powers have recourse to it too. Before M. Thiers issued his ordonnance arming so many ships of the line, he would have done better to have begun by counting on his fingers the naval force of France, and then the naval force of the allies. The balancing ono against the other in figures would have spared the necessity of ac tually setting the rival Leviathans afloat. laiplomacy would have weighed the naval and military force of France, and all that was to'be dreaded from it, and its due share of influence would have been allowed. France might thus have won much by fair means, and whatever it ceded would have been without the appearance of hu miliation. But as matters stand, neither Russia nor I e Eneland can allow a triumph to France. They did not menace France, but France has menaced them. ( The Czar has a pride, and Old England has a pride, as well as M. Thiers ; and the intervention of all these prides renders the question much more compli cated than if it were merely Egyptian and territorial. (From the Morning Herald.) It will be seen, from our report in another column, that the Court•martial on Captain Reynolds, at Brigh- too, assembled again yesterday, but adjourned over to Thursday, in consequence of an application on behalf of the defendant to be allowed more time to prepare his defence. Our readers will also perceive that the Presi dent alluded to the publication of the proceedings be fore the case had c:osed, as a contempt of the autho rity and jurisdiction of the Court, being a violation of 1 an express order against publication. He referred to 1 several cases of Courts-martial, in which the evidence , way not published until the whole had been gone through. He said that the papers violatirez, the or der rendered themselves liable to actions in the su perior Courts. If that were so—bet he did not quote any precedent for it—still, we trust, we commit no disrespect. in questioning the expediency of such an order in the present case. The whole of the evi dence for the prosecution was gone through on the first day. If the authentic account of the pro ceedings had not gone forth to the public in the in terval of the adjournment of the Court, all sorts of garbled statements would have been circulated, dis torting the evidence, and giving the public false impres sions of the case ; but, by the publication of the correct minutes of the evidence, and proceedings in the news papers, this mischief was prevented. If we are not greatly mistaken, there was a very memorable Court martial sonic years ago, in which the Earl of Cardigan, then Lord Brudeneli, was prosecutor, and which had a very disastrous termination for him. On that occasion the newspapers published the reports daily, we believe, during the progress of the trial, and by so doing ob viated the possibility of misrepresentation of the real merits of the case. So it was in the no less memorable Court-martial, in which Admiral Codrington was the prosecutor of certain charges against Captain Dicken son, who was most honourably acquitted. On the trial of Admiral Keppel, which agitated the whole nation, the reports were published without restriction. While we (Lifer from the reasoning of the President; we cannot avoid rendering full justice to the courteous and gentle manly tone in which his sentiments were conveyed. And greatly' has the Press to thank those concerned for the accommodation afforded to its representatives. (From the Morning Advertiser.) It is as we predicted—Alderman Harmer's election is all but secure. Yesterday he polled, during one hour only, two to one of the gentlemen who, against their will, have been put fsrward in opposition to him. As gentlemen, althouvh of opposite politics, theyldisd , iined to take advantage of a factious opposition, and thereby oust a colleague in every way equally worthy of the re ception of the Livery us themselves. The number of the voters polled fur them proves this to have been dis tinctly the fact ; for if either Alderman Pirie or Alder man Johnson had called upon their friends to vote for them, we have no doubt that both of them would have stood in a very different plight from that which they did yesterday. They will not be made tie cat's-paw s of party spirit, and those who vote for them this day will unquestionably do them a great disser vice. The Livery, perhaps, are not aware that if they elect either the one or the other, and they refuse to serve, that they subject them to a fine of 5,0001. ; but such is the fact. 'Without, therefore, having obtained an assurance from one or the other of the gentlemen referred to, that they will serve if elected, their friends arc imposing upon them a pen alty and a punishment for which they will not be parti cularly obliged. In the mean time, it is gratifying to know that those who are opposed in political opinion to Alderman Harmer are the most staunch in his support.

A Morning Paper , notorieusiy n the ra il way i n - W r est, has been labouring for some time past to neu t r alize the effect produced upon the p u bli c m i n d by the dreadful accidents have of late b ecome b e t n h t s o frequent, and y in remarks which we considered e: which it our duty to offer consequence. We retaliate serv e some tetuatie attempt to s dirty clas s i nterest, object, by grou n dl ess with ineffable co ntem p t the imputation of " a sYs or party individual prejudice, VIE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1840 declarations and gross distortions ;" and we ut terly deny that we are, or ever have been, actuated by the motive of hostility to railways, or that we are in the slightest degree insensible of the important benefits arisin:.; to individuals, and to the country at large, from that method of travelling, when safely arid properly conducted. To cast 'olarne upon men be cause they seek to promote their pecuniary interest by embarking in such undertakings, would be as unreason able, as it is ridiculous to claim for them the credit of patriotism upon the same account. The spirit of enter prise is rife in a busy and commercial age, the improve ments of science are well understood, the effect of com bination is appreciated, and the increase of weaqh throws men continually upon the search for new and more profitable investments of capital. In all this there is no matter either for praise or for blame ; and these are, beyond all question, the causes to which we owe the establishment of railways. That enter prise has taken this direction, and has succeeded in so doing is with us a subject of congratulation. But, having no interest in the matter beyond that which we share in common with the public, we are not so trans ported with our admiration of the improvements of science, or so blinded by an exclusive contemplation of the brighter side of the results, as not to see the ob vious probability that enterprise,- when flushed with success, may be wanting in caution ; that a monopoly of the means of communication, as well as of other things, may lead to remissness, insolence, and extor tion on the part of the monopolists ; and that the public safe) , may possibly require a more jealous and less one-sided guardianship than that of Directors whose labours, after all, have nothing for their final cause but the production of the largest possible divi dend at quarter-day. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. (From the Globe.) Church and State are more and more narrowed, in the Tory view, to parsons and landlords ; and in their most deliberate publications, it is plain they mean nothing else. It is time that those who believe these words, which we hope to see still venerated, mean something else, and something more, than the Tories mean by them, should vindicate their larger views of the frame of a body politic. The attempt is making, in good earnest, though at present only by " discourse of reason"—or rather, of authority—which, it is held, ought to control reason—to rivet the yoke of one church, and one class, upon all others. This zeal has chiefly arisen since the Reform of Parliament. The seat of Tory ascendancy is confined more exclusively to the territorial part of' the representation than it was for merly. The monied and manufacturing interests stand rather as its rivals than its slaves. The land-mono poly of subsistence is threatened by the newly enfran chised boroughs. The priestly monopoly of spiritual guidance is threatened from the same quarters, Accord ingly, the scribes of territorial oligarchy, and exclusive priesthood are beginning to rival the Chartists in de nouncing monied wealth and manufactures !—in de nouncing the tyranny of capital, and the avarice of em ployers of labour. This is a very, very dangerous game. Whenever the Tories shall succeed in raising the populace against their political rivals, let them be sure the siege of Belvoir and Clumber is not tar distant ! Such insane rhapsodies as those of the Tory landlord-and-priest party of late on every subject connected with every civil and religious body but their own—it they excite anything but con tempt, must excite conflagration, We trust contempt will be all their recompense. We are no enemies of Church or landlords. We trust their present parasites and toad-eaters will not be successful in raising a flame which, whatever else it consumes, full surely will involve them. The Church, with pretensions more moderate, and means of utility more equalised—the landlords, with foot on the soil, but fingers out of our pockets—these classes we believe to have much, very much in them that is valuable. We believe there is in each a very considerable share of the qualities which form the moral stability and firm frankness of the English character. We do not think we could do so well without them ; we are at least certain that the ex periment must be costly, bloody, doubtful, and danger ous ; and that it would most likely leave us without that vigour which is still our distinction. However, priest hood and aristocracy may be paid for a trifle too dear ; and England is not England if it pays the price that is now asked for them. (From the Courier.) It is no less lamentable than true, that the inventions which have most largely contributed to the happiness and safety of mankind, encountered on their first pro mulgation the most determined hostility and opposition. The interested views of the few combined with the i b tino= ranee of the many, to postpone and limit their applica tion, even after experience had removed from the public mind all doubts of their efficiency. Thus it has been from the beginning, and thus, we presume, it will be to the end., Discoveries pregnant with blessings to unborn generations were scouted as " dangerous innovations" by contemporaries, and were produc tive to their illustrious authors of nothing' in such abundance as of enmity, hatred, and jealousy. Loudly as we may boast of the progress of civilization, and of the enlightenment of the nineteenth century, the old leaven of prejudice, ay, and of ignorance too, is still widely spread amongst us, and we are as prone as ever to view suspiciously the adoption of those wonder working productions of mechanical skill, which almost supersede animal labour, and grudgingly to acknow ledge their benefits. Considering the astonishing power of steam, its exhaustless capability, and the useful and beneficial purposes to which it has been made subservient, we were not, we confess, prepared for the violent out cry raised against its agency in locomotion by no in considerable or influential portion of the press—nor were we prepared to see it raised on such false and feeble pretences as it has been. Ode of our Contem poraries accounts for the " surprising" popularity of railroad travelling by attributing it to the " utili tarianism of the present age." Now we do not pretend to an intimate acquaintance with the modes of life or habits of thought that prevailed with our ancestors on the subject of travelling, but we arc much disposed to think that even they would have pre ferred a cheap, comfortable, and rapid mode of con vevance, to one that was expensive, uncomfortable, and tedious ; and, furtherinore, we venture to assert that their adoption and patronage of the latter for so many centuries is not so much ascribable to their love of that, as to the want of any other. ELECTION OF LORI) MAYOR. (YESTEEZDAY.) The Hall was crowded again at three o'clock, when the polling commenced with great spirit, and was car ried on till four o'clock, at which hour the poll-books were closed till nine o'clock to-morrow morning. Alderman Harmer was present, and bowed his thanks for the votes given in his favour. As will be seen from the state of the pull below, the worthy Al derman has polled unwards of two to one. Toe poll-book having been closed, the numbers were announced to be as follows : Harmer - - - - 291 Pirie - - - _ _ . 141 Johnson The anuouncemeat was received with the most en thusiastic cheering in a hall crowded almost to suffo cation. Mr. Alderman HARMER then came forward, and was greeted with deafening cheers. He said, Gentle men of the Livi ry, calumniated as I have been for some months past, it is a highly gratifying circumstance to find myself supported as I have been by the Lavery of London —(Great cheering.) Every term of abuse known to the English language has been applied to me. I have been called Infidel, Atheist, and I hardly know what ; but I defy my oppo nents to point out a single instance of my reviling religion or doing a dishonourable action. —(Great cheering.) My opponents, Gentlemen, pro fess Christian principles ; I endeavour to act upon them and to practise them.—( Loud cheering.) My opponent has told you that he went round with his protest to get signatures—that some signed—that others refused to do so, but said that they would come to vote against me. My only wonder is into what quarters he went. I think, however, the evidence that you have shown to-day proves that he has not acted fairly towards the Times Newspaper.—(Great cheers.) I throw myself upon the Livery, and if they return me, and I am returned by the Court of Aldermen, of which I have no doubt, my friends will find that the confidence they have re posed in me has not been misplaced ; and my opponents will be shown that they have been deceived. —(Great cheering.) I only urge you to persevere to morrow as you have done to-day, and I think by then the contest will be at an end.—(Cheering.) Mr. Deputy STEVENS wished the Livery to in quire where Alderman Pirie and Alderman Johnson were.—(Great cheering.) If they were put up against their own wishes, he trusted the Livery would not allow themselves to be led from their busi ness to vote for two gentlemen who did (IA not want the situation. —(Loud cheering.) One word more and he had done. He trusted if Al dermen Pirie and Johnson were not present that day, and (lid not, therefore, wish the situation, they would be found in the Court of Aldermen voting for Mr. Alder man Harmer.—(Cheers.) The Livery had only to pursue the same course to-morrow which they had done that day, and the election of Alderman Harmer was secure.—(Cheers.) The Hall then adjourned till to-morrow, at nine o'clock, at which hour the polling will commence, and continue till three o'clock.

This is as it should be; a few examples would be very effective,—Railway Time. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. ( Front the London New Price Current of September 29 ) SUGAR.-Importers of British Plantation Sugar having submitted to a reduction on former rates of 6d per cwt. caused buyers to come forward more freely, particularly (t Friday, when the grocers purchased largely of both brown acid yellow kinds, and fsr refining purposes the operations were on a more extended scale: the total sales for the three market days have amounted to 1,500 hhds and trcs. At auction 132 hinds Barhadees have been offered, and nearly all taken in at stiff prices, viz., middling to good yellow at 83s to 84s 6d, good and fine 85s to 87s; there were buyers of the whole 6d under tliose rates. Several vessels have arrived during the past week, still the quantity of Sugar received has not been equal to that of the same time last year by one half ; consequently the deficiency its the comparative stocks has increased. To-day less demand existed from both grocers and re finers for all descriptions, but the rates of Friday were supported; the p.ivate sales were only 150 hhds and trees, At auction 130 hhds 1 tierce Barbadoes were offered, and all disposed of at full prices, fine yellow fetched 86a to 865 Gd, good 84s Gd to 854 6d, middling 83s to 84s, and one lot greyish 81s per cat; if the merchants, however, had submitted to prices 6d under those of Friday, it would have led to the disposal of several parcels. The stock of British Plantation Sugar is now 21,382 hhds and tierces, which is 22,275 less than last year at the same period. The stock of Mauritius is 15 993 bags, being 76,014 less than last year. The stock of Bengal is 19,914 bags, which is 25,136 less than last year. The delivery of British Plantation Sugar for the last week was 1,843 hogsheads and tierces, being SI less than during the same time last year. The delivery of Mauritius was 2,379 bags, being 5 908 less than last year. The delivery of Bengal was 1,268 bags, being 1,164 less than the corresponding week of last year. The Gazette average price is .now 583 2d, in 1839 40s 21d. and in 1838 29a 2d. REFINED.—F, rmer prices have been supported for Re fined Goods, hut the demand last week was very limited from the home trade ; yesterday, however, they bought more freely, paying for Standard Lamps 102 s, good and fine brown Lumps 97s to 101 s, ord 95s to 965. Tittlera and Hamburgh Loaves good 103 s to 103 , fine 106 s to 107 s. Treacle cannot be quoted cheaper, but the pur chases have Irsen limited ; best old make at 43s to 44s ; Patent 41s to 425, and common 38s to 39: per cwt. Bastards have been in good request at 67s to 78s. Pieces have been taken freely, and prices keep up, ord and middling kinds have realised 78s to 80s, good and fine 82s to 87s per cwt. There are few orders at present for Bonded Crushed Sugar, but under 33s 3d there are no sellers of that qua lity ; second may however be had at 335. For Loaves a brisk demand has existed, 141bs have been disposed of at 38s to to 385 6d, 10Ibs 39s to 39s 6d, and 61bs 425. Treacle in large parcels have fetched 15s. Bastards have sold steadily at 20e, and Pieces at 23s to 28s. Dutch Crushed Sugar in small parcels has been disposed of at 31s 6d on board at Amsterdam. To-day a fair demand existed for Refined Goods from the home trade, but no improvement in prices occurred, and the nearest quotation for Standard Lumps was 102 s. Treacle sells more freely at 38s to 445. Pieces and Bast ards in good request at former r& es. Bonded Crushed Sugar was only in limited demand, first quality at 33s 3d per cwt. _ _ _ Formosa-Holders of Brazil having submitted to rather lower rates have caused a much better demand for all de scriptions, both for refining under bond and for export; privately 250 chests low and good middling white Pernam buco have been disposed of for export, at an average of 25s Bd. At auction 200 chests white, and 124 chests brown Bahia were all taken in ; the former at 235 to 27s Oct for very low soft to good strong, and the latter at 21s to 23s 63 for middling to fine strong quality ; the whole how ever was disposed of immediately after the sale ; the white for export at an average of 25s 6d, and the brown for re fining under bond at an average of 22s 6d per cwt. For auction on the 6th October 320 chests 250 brls Pernambuco are declared. White Havannah has attracted more atten tion, and former rates have been fully maintained ; still the private sales have not been of much moment. At auction 790 boxes damaged all sold at 27s to 32s for low to good quality, and very soft at 24s to 26s per cwt. Yellow is held for former rates, but there has been little desire shown to do business by private treaty ; and a third part only of 882 boxes at auction was sold for shipping, soft quality at 2356 d to 249, middling strong 24s 6d to 255, good middling 25s 6d, good and fine 26s to 26s 6d, washed 23s to 24s ; the private sales have been 320 boxes good and fine qua lity at 25s to 26s per cwt; if holders would submit to rather lower rates it would lead to the disjaasal of several parcels. At auction 239 hhds 123 brls Porto Rico have been offered, a small part only found buyers for stores, ord brown at 225, low middling and good yellow 23s 6d to 255, fine 27s per cwt.
