The Sun. — London, England, 1840-02-15 00:00:00

PROST, WILLIAMS, AND JONES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sir,—As an elector of Finsbury, and reader of your Journal, may I request, as a favour, to know why you are silent in reference to the meeting at White Conduit House on Wednesday last, to adopt a petition to both Houses of Parliament for a free pardon to the above-named patriot 3 ? I take the opportunity of stating that it was one of the greatest meetings ever held in the borough of Finsbury. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, JUSTICE. Feb. 14, 1840. [We never received any notice of the meeting, and never heard of it till this letter reached us.—ED. Stils.] THE BISHOP OF EXETER. AND !MR. PARE. London, Adelphi, 6, Robert-stteet, Feb. 12 1840. My Lord Bishop—l have taken the liberty to address this letter to your Lordship in consequence of a speech which I rind in The Sett newspaper of this day, reported to have been delivered by your Lordship in the House of Lords last night, in which you thought proper to reflect upon my veracity. Notwithstanding what your Lordship, or your Lordship's correspondent, may say, I beg to state most unequivocally that the whole of the allegations set forth in my petition, presented to the House of Commons, and by it ordered to be printed on the 4th inst., are true ;and that I am ready, by myself and others, to prove the same before any com petent tribunal. Your Lordship is reported to have said in the course of your observations, alluding to me, and after the announce ment of my resignation by the Marquis of Normanby, that you had "no wish to press upon a fallen wan." Now, my Lord, it would appear from this that your Lordship meant to convey to the House and to the country the idea that your Lordship was in possession of other statements, which, whether true or false—like those by which your Lordship has already allowed yourself to be misled—might possibly damags, me in the eyes of the public, but which, out of con sideration fur " a fallen man," your Lordship chose to withhold. Now, my Lord, I beg to say that, after what has oc curred, I can set no value whatever upon your Lordship's affected consideration for me, and I beg respectfully to challenge your Lordship to state openly, in your place in Parliament, anything and everything which your Lordship may deem disparaging to my character. Spare me not, my Lord ; I have done and said nothing of which I need be afraid or ashamed, but, on the contrary, have, in addition to a strictly hossest dis charge of my duties in private life, devoted my hum ble abilities and means to ameliorate the condition of my suff,ring fellow•-men, and to promote the practice of the divine religion of love and charity. Since the publication of the charges which your Lordship brought against me, and to which I have replied in my petition, I have had the honour of receiving a memorial, of which the following is a copy, signed by a number of Magistrates, and other public functionaries, professional men, merchants, &c , of Birmingham, and the signatures to which would have been far more numerous, but for the news of my resignation. " To the Right Honourable the Marquis of Normanby, her Majesty's principal Secretary of State. " The Memorial of the undersigned Inhabitants of the Borough of Birmingham, " Sheweth,—That your memorialists are acquainted with M r . William Pare, the Superintendent Registrar of Births, Deaths, and Marriages for the district of Wr minglaarn, and that they believe him to be a person of ex cellent moral character, of strict and unimpeachable in tegrity, exemplary in the discharge of every duty which renders a man estimable in domestic and in social life. And they further declare that they believe Mr. Pare to be eminently fitted for the office which he holds. And your memorialists humbly trust that he may be permitted to continue in the said office of Superintendent Registrar, the duties of which he has never failed to perform in the most satisfactory manner. " Birmingham. Fab. ith, 1840 " Now, my Lord, coming as this does from gentlemen of the highest respectability, and of various religious de nominations, who reside in the same town in which I was born, and have lived all my life, and who have had the best opportunities of gaining an accurate knowledge of my character, public and private, I need not, nor do I heed the false slanders and misrepresentations of the interested individuals who have been your Lordship's in. formants. I have the honour to be, my Lord, Your Lordship's obedient Servant, WILLIAM PARE. To the Right Rev. the Bishop of Exeter. PARIS ANTI-SLAVERY DINNER. PARIS, FEE. 11. A dinner was given here yesterday by the principal members of the French Anti-Slavery Society, to Messrs. Scobell, Alexander, and Whitehorn, the delegates of the British and Foreign Asti-Slavery Society. Amongst the distinguished persons present, were M. Odilon Barrot, Count d' Harcourt, Peer of France ; Messrs. Do Lamartine, Count Charles de Remusat, de Sade, George Lafayette, Baron Roger, de Corcelles, de Beaumont, the Marquis de Tracy, de Tocqueville, Isambert, and Saint Anthoine. More than two-thirds of the company were members of the Chamber of Deputies. Over the head of 'L Odilon Barrot, who presided, was a flag bearing the names of Wilberforce, Clarkson, and Macaulay. M. Odilon Barrot made a very eloquent speech. Ad dressing the EngliTh Delegates, he said—" Gentleman, I am most happy to see you here as the representatives of a country which first advocated the great Cause of emancipa tion. France, Gentlemen, will follow your' example in a cause which combines justice and interest wit:.h humanity. May the alliance between France and England impe rishable." M. De Lamartine said—" The benedictions of the three worlds are due to the alliance between France and England. Let us draw closer and closer the bonds of this alliance, for they are those of the European fraternity which you represent. But this pitiful policy, gentlemen, will try is vain to snap or loosen the bonds which unite England and France. They will remain united. We form together the pedes tal of the rights of human nature.—( Loud cries of " Bravo.") The liberty of the world has one foot on the soil of England and the other on that of France. Liberty and civilization would be lost in torrents of blood if England and France were to be separated. Gentlemen, we will not separate. We will remain united. The true plenipotentiaries of nations are their great men—the true bond of alliance is a sympathy of ideas."—( Loud cheers.) Mr. SCOBELL made a very neat speech in English, in which he re-echoed the sentiments of M. Odilon Barrot and M. De Lamartine.—GLbe. Mr. Hope, an English gentleman, living at No. 255, Rue Saint Honore, advertised a pair of pistols for sale. On Sunday a purchaser presented himself, and after some bargaining agreed to take them at 170 f., promising to come with the money, and take the pistols in the evening. At the hour appointed he arrived, but Mr. Hope was absent, hav int, left the pistols with a maid, who was instructed to deliver them only on payment of the money. The purchaser required a written receipt ; the servant had none, but consented to carry the case to the residence of the buyer, and there deliver it and sign a receipt to be written by him on payment of the 170 f. This person led her as far as the Porte Saint Denis, where, on arriving at an entrance ; he took the case, pre tending to go up to his apartment to get the money and write the receipt, leaving the girl down stairs. She soon learnt that she was at one end of the Passage A übert, and that her companion had made his way out with his cheap bargain at the other, and was never likely to return. She went home in a state of great trouble. The same evening Mr. Hope received the following note with the empty case 7- ° ` Mr. Hope—Your pistols have been taken by a man who wanted them to blow his brains out. As soon as they have done him this ser vice, they shall be returned, to be placed in the box I now send you. Necessity has driven a miserable man to commit this theft, he not having whereaithal to purchase the means of kill ing himself. Adieu, God bless you. r W. P.' "—Galignani. The Liberals of Exeter have presented to Mr. Latimer, Editor of the Western Times, a very handsome Tea and Coffee service of plate, including a silver waiter, twelve tea spoons, butter cooler, sugar tongs, cream jug, &c., in token of respect for his services in advocating their cause, &c. The value of the plate is 100 guineas. MR. HENRY BETTY.—This gentleman made his debut at Halifax on Monday last in the part of Hamlet. Ryan, commonly called " The Rebellion Ruf fian," is no more. On this morning (Tuesday) the "vital spark" quitted his mortal frame. The bloated ministers of the Church by " law and bayonets established," have to bewail their most zealous minion and active officer, while every honest farmer, whom he aided in plundering, in order to pander to the luxurious habits of these disciples of a poor and humble Re deemer, now with Christian charity exclaim with Zanga— " He is dead, and so is my enmity."—Dublin Pilot. The Commercial Travellers' annual ball took place at Willis's Assembly-rooms, King-street, St. James's, on Wednesday evening, the 12th instant, which was very nu merously attended. file arrangements were upon a similar scale as last year. Adams's band attended, and the dancing was kept op with unceasing spirit until a late hour in the morning. MADAME MALIBRAN'S MEMOIRS.—The life of a public actor must have been an extraordinary ene in deed which will not yield materials for an entertaining bio graphy. What then are we to look for from the memoirs of perhaps the most extraordinary actress and singer united and one of the most singul ar an d eccentric women that ever lived. These memoirs, furnished by Malibran's earliest and dearest friend and intimate, the Countess de Merlin, are full of inte resting details, much of which is entirely new to the public, and of a nature to give new ideas an d i mpressions of the , ex traordinary woman to whom they relate. We could fill several columns very pleasantly with those singular personal anecdotes and traits with which these volumes are filled; but extracts are unnecessary, as the bo.)k will be universally read. In addi tion to the chief memoir, there is a large body of miscellaneous anecdote, and a seleetio of Malibran's letters—all singularly characteristic and amusing.—Naval and Military Gazette.

Pursuant to a requisition signed by the two members for the borough of Southwark, and by a great number of the most re spectable and influential inhabitants, a meeting was convened yesterday at the Town-hall, to take into consideration the effect of the Present Corn-laws, with a view to petition her Majesty and the two Houses of Parliament on the subject. In the ab sence of the High Bailiff, occasioned by illness, Mr. Humphery, M.P., was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN, after regretting the absence of the High. Bailiff, said he was there to hear the sentiments of his constitu ents on this most important question, and he could promise them that he would act in accordance with their sentiments in his place in the House of Commons.—(Cheers.) Be hoped the meeting would give all parties a fair and impartial hearing, as it was only by fair and calm discussion that they could arrive at the truth. The requisition convening the meeting having been read, Mr. A. PELLATT said that this was a commercial country, and as such required that the monopoly of the supply of food should be abandoned. He would do full justice to the agricul turists, and all he required was, that by a moderate duty, and ultimately without any duty, this manufacturing country should be enabled to exchange its surplus produce for the corn that was rotting in magazines, in consequence of the restrictions im posed by the Corn-laws upon such exchange. He thought all would agree that it was a principle of trade, whether with makers or sellers, to buy as cheap and to sell as dear as possi ble. Unless people could ensure a profit, they might as well give up business. This could not be done with the present Corn-laws. The landowners, through the operation of these laws, were becoming the natural enemies of the people. If mat ters went on as they were proceeding at present, the time was not very far distant when they would see a complete cessation of pros perity, and when national starvation would stare them in the face. He earnestly hoped that a timely alteration of the pre sent system would prevent such consequences. The free im port and export of corn would be a sure preventive of scarcity, and would also tend to cultivate a feeling of general peace throughout Europe. When Sir Thomas Robinson, in the pre sence of Dr. Johnson, said that if the corn trade of Ireland were unrestricted it might be prejudicial to the corn trade of England, Dr. Johnson replied, " Sir Thomas, you talk the language of a savage. Would you prevent any people from feeding themselves, if by any honest means they can do so ?" All the people of England mei- wanted was, that they should not be prevented from feeding themselves, if by honest means they could do so.—(Cheers.) He would conclude by moving a resolution, to the effect that the present Corn-laws were deeply injurious to the t ra ding and commercial interests of this country, whilst they afforded undue advantage to one class of the community; that they were unjust in themselves, and ought to be repealed. The resolution was seconded by Mr. VOUSLEY, then put and agreed to. Mr. Timis moved the ascend resolution, which was to the effect that the meeting was convinced that the present Corn laws, in prohibiting the free exchange of the surplus produce f our manufacturing industry, for the surplus food of othi r countries, unjustly interfered with the rights of the producing classes of the community. Mr. BRADY seconded it. The resolution was then put and carried. Dr. BEDFORD moved, that a petition be presented to the House of Commons, praying for the total repeal of the Corn-laws. The petition was read, and its adoption was seconded by Mr. MA y EW. Mr. ELLis opposed the adoption of the petition, and con tended that cheap bread meant cheap bread and low wages. The petition was adopted, only one hand being held up against it. On the motion of Mr. VoustAty., Messrs. Humphrey and Wood were requested to support the petition in Parliament. \lr. HUMPHREY advised them to be firm, if by firmness they could get a total repeal, but if they could not get a total repeal, they must endea•:our quietly to obtain that which would give them the cheapest loaf. He feared that the landed interest in the House of Commons was too strong, but as their representative he would do all in his power to obtain the total repeal of the Corn-laws.—(Cheers.) He would support the petition. Mr. Woor then rose and said that he felt solemnly convinced that the time had arrived when the Corn-laws must necessarily be repealed. He said that the time had arrived when, it was his conviction, that it was impossible for the working classes of this country, for the manufacturers, or for those who were en gaged in the commerce of the country, to bear the burdens they were now labouring o under. He agreed in the position on which that meeting took their stand—namely, a total repeal of the Corn-laws. But he and his colleague could do little unless supported by the people ; if the people would support their re presentatives, and induce their representatives to support the repeal of the Corn-laws, then, and not till then, could they expect that the righteous and good cause would be success ful.—(Cheers. ) It was then put and agreed to, that the petition to the House of Lords be entrusted to Earl Fitzwilliam ; and after a vote of thanks to the chairman, the meeting separated. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOW-STREET. Thomas Dunn Webb, whose case appeared on Saturday last, was yesterday brought before Mr. Jardine for re-examina tion, charged with stealing money and other property from a number of letters which came into his possession as clerk in the post-office in Birmingham. It appeared from the evidence taken at the first examination that the prisoner was traced on the Ist instant from Hatchett's Hotel in Piccadilly to Brighton, Hastings, Dover, and from thence to Calais, where he apprehended him with 100 sove reigns in his possession, together with several documents relat ing to the contents of letters, which have since been identified by the persons by whom remittances had been sent to various quarters. He travelledunder the assumed name of Stanley ; and, on his being taken irto custody, he used every means to per suade the officer that he was mistaken in his person. On being placed at the bar, he was charged with embezzling a letter, directed to Mr. Hoare, of Smith-court, Chelsea, and stealing from it two 51. Bank of England notes. Mr. Peacock conducted the prosecution, and called wit nesses to prove the delivery of the letter at the Post-office con taining the money, the employment of the prisoner in that department of the Birmingham Post-office through which the letter was likely to pass, and his sudden departure from Bir mingham without notice given to the Post-office authorities. Inspector Pearce repeated the evidence he gave at the former examination, describing the property found upon him. The prisoner declined saying anything in his defence, and was ordered to be committed. A similar charge was brought forward against him, to which he declined making any defence, end at the request of Mr. Peacock was remanded for a week. DUEL.—On Saturday morning, about seven o'clock, two gentlemen, connected with the most respectable families in the country, with their seconds, met in May's ground, Belfast, near the new bridge across the Lagan, to de cide an affair of honour. The space of twelve paces having been nu asured, and the parties placed, the word was given and they fired ; one of the gentlemen was sliGhtly wounded in the breast, the other fired in the air and thus the matter termi nated. THE 13KROMETER.—O n the morning of Tues day, the 4th inst., the barometer indicated a depression lower than has teen observed at any period within the last twenty_ two years, the quicksilver having fallen to 27 0 91. SHOCKING RAILWAY ACCIDENT.—On Mon day evening last, a shocking accident occurred on the Ballach ney line of rail Way, near to the town of Airdrie. The circum stances of the case, as far as we have been able to learn, are as follow :—A number of coal miners employed at the coal work about three miles north of Airdrie, were returning home from their work, and in coming down an inclined plane on a part of the Railway were overtaken by another train of carriages, of which the man in clarge had lost all power, and seeing a con cussion was inevitable, had thrown himself from his seat. Those in the foremost train, seeing the other waggons coming upon them, a number leaped out, but not in time to escape, and the result was, that four men and boys were killed, and eight or nine dreadfully mangled. At l east t h ree of the survivors lave lost either a leg or an arm. Some of the sufferers have lelt large families to deplore their loss.— Glasgow Chronicle. BITUMINOUS PAVEMENT.—O n Thursday, in the Court of Queen's Bench, an action was brought for the alleged infringement of Claridge's Pat en t f or making bitumi nous pavement. The evidence was conflicting, some of the scientific asserting that the plaintiff's discovery was as old as the walls of Bi.bylon, while others declared that the process was quite new. The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff on all the issues of fact, but for the defendant upon the question as to the right to grant a license to moi e than twelve persons, with liberty to the plaintiff to move to enter the verdict on last ssue for plaintiff. THE HARROW RIOTERS I—ln the Court of Queen's Bench last Wednesday about twenty Harrow boys, including Sir Robert Peel's sons, were indicted for having tumultuously assembled at Harrow. Mr. Ballantine having !tiled the nature of the charge in this general manner, Lord Denman, smiling, said he observed that this was a p rocee di ng against schoolboys for breaking wineows,and he thought that such a subject might better be arranged out of Court, and sug gested that the prosecutor should receive 1501. as a compensa tion for the injury which he had received. This proposition was agreed to by all parties. The majority of ten on Thursday night on Mr. Herries's motion on the financial state of the country, was pro cured by a ruse for which the Tories are celebrated. A tem porary absence of a number of the Alinisterial supporters, who did not anticipate an early division, induced the Tory whippers in to muster their forces, and thus a factious majority was snapped for the sake of obtaining a paltry party triumph, at the risk of shaking the financial credit of the country.

ANTIPATHY OF DESTITUTE PAUPERS TO GO INTO WOR KHOUSES.—Durirg an inquest held on Wednes day before Mr. Wakley, M.P., that gentleman stated that, in the course of his official inquiries, he repeatedly met with instances of the extreme dislike paupers entertained to going into workhouses for relief that really surprised him. Last Saturday he held two inquests at Stepney on persons who had died of destitution, and he was told that both of them had invariably refused, though advie•ed, to seek for in-door relief. One of those cases was the mest deplorable he had ever witnessed. The inquest was on the shockingly -emaciated body of a female, who was upwards of eighty years of age, and who ap peared to have been literally starved to death. There could be no blame attached to the relieving officer of the parish in which she died, because the woman positively resist xi going into the workhouse, and refused the offer of relief on such terms. She was in the habit of receiving 4s. a week from a palish near Cornhill, and the moment she received it she spent the money in drink. She was even solicited by her husband to enter a workhouse in which he was kindly treated, but she rcfu.cd. What must be done with such paupers? If they were forced into the workhouse a clamour would be raised, and it would be said that they were forced in in order to get rid of them. LYNCH-LIBEL LAW.—Two . avenging spirits flew from sTewkesbury to Cheltenham a day or two ago, and pounced upon the printer of the Paul Pry, whom they bela boured with blows neither few nor light.

(From the London New Price Current of February 14. ) SUGAR.—The grocers have been free buyers of all descrip tions of British Plantation Sugar this week, bright yellow kinds, exnmanded prices 6d and in some cases Is above those of Friday last ; all other kinds have brought 6d ad vance. From the refiners the demand has been good, par ticularly for strong grey kinds, and they have been com pelled to pay prices 6d above those of this day week. Jamaica, Demerara, and Grenada of low to good brown quality has fetched 58s to 61s, low middling to middling yellow 62s to 653; Antigua good and fine middling 66s to 673; Barbadoes middling to good middling fetched 66s to 68s 6d, good 69s to 69s 6d. This afternoon there was an excellent demand for West India Sugar, principally from the grocers, and the prices paid are rather above those of yesterday, making the ad vance for the week 6d on brown and grey, and is on all yel low desriptions. The market closed with a firm appearance. REFINED.—Prices continue to improve for refined goods, and the home trade have purchased freely of all descriptions, paying an advance on last week's rates of 6d to is : standard lumps have fetched 79s Gd to 80s, rather inferior 78s to 795, and good brown lumps 77s to 77s Gd per cwt. Pieces have improved to 70s to 73s for fine, and 60s to 69s for other descrip tions. Treacle of common quality is much wanted, and 32s 6d offered, but the supply being short has restricted buying. Patent and the best old make at 33s Gd to 355. To-day refined goods were in good request for home use, and the rates quoted above were fully supported : the supply is still small. In Bonded Crushed large sales made at 34s 3d to 34s 6d. Loaves sell more freely, at rather higher prices, 14, 10, and 6lbs are fetching 37s to 43s per cwt. In other articles no variation. AIA URITI us,—Prices cannot be quoted higher this week, at public sale 3,213 bags of the new crop sold with spirit at prices fully equal to those of the last auction ; very low yellow fetched 61s 6d, middling 62s 6d to 635, good middling 64s to 655, good 65s Gd to 665, a favourite mark Le Breton, low white 65s to 68s Gd, good to fine brown 59s 6d to 61s 6d, very ordinary and middling Ms 6d to 58s per cwt. Ensr INDIA.— Bengal of dry white quality has been much sought after by the home trade. At public sale 1,000 bags sold with animation, establishing an advance on previous rates of is to is 6d; fine colory white realized 71s 6tl to 725, good 70s 6d to 71s, middling to good middling 68s 6d to 6956 d, washed &c. 68s to 71s 6d per cwt.; brown and bright yellow kinds at late rates; Siam good white fetched 27s to 27s 6d, mid 26s to 26s 6d, low mid 24s 6d to •25s 6d, low middling greyish 25s to 25s 6d, soft 23s to 255, fine yellow 24s to 24s 6d, middling to good 22s 6d to 23s 6d, washed &c. 20s to 25s Gd.

This afternoon the few parcels of white Bengal offering, were taken readily by the trade at the rates quoted. For Manilla a better demand prevailed, and 5502 bags at auction were all disposed of at and after the sale, principally to the Refiners, at stiff prices, low brown fetched 193 a 193 6d, low mid yellow 2ls a 21s 6d, mid to good greyish yellow 22s a 23s 6d, washed 20s 6d a 22s per cwt. FOREIGN.—There has been no public sale of any descrip tion ; and none is at present announced. White Havannah prices are uncertain. Holders of yellow not inclined to take the late reduced rates. For good white sorts of Brazil the merchants are not disposed to reduce their pretensions ; for public sale 400 chests Bahia are declared for next Friday.— Since this slay week 298 chests, &e., Bahia, 611 hhds 55 bar rels Porto Rico have been received. COrFEE.—The grocers have evinced much desire to purchase clean descriptions of British Plantation since we last wrote; middling sorts have been the most in request, but the demand has been restricted in consequence of the short supply at mar ket the parcels disposed of by private treaty have been at rather higher prices. Unclean kit,ds have been taken more freely at former rates; there has been no public sale, and only 50 casks Berbice are declared, only 82 casks have been received since our last report. The stccks held by the trade are very small, especially of middling and good clean kinds. In the early part of the week the demand was limited for nearly all descriptions of East India and Cape Coffee for home use, and at the public sales of St. Domingo consisting of 5,100 bags, prices gave way 3s to 4s for common, and Is for other descriptions ; 2,100 bags consisted of really bold even fine quality, and fetched 70s, the remainder good ordinary sold at 62s to 62s 6d, and one pile very low mixed with stones and dust 57s to 58s 6d ; during the last two days, however, there has been a much better demand for Coffee from the Grocers as well as from speculators, and prices have assumed an upward tendency, the common descrptions of Domingo disposed of at the auctions this week have been resold at 2s to 3s profit; for auc tion on Tuesday 1,000 bags are declared, and 1,200 bags of other kinds at 9d duty. Java has been much sought after, but the short supply has restricted business privately, and buyers have been c , .mpelled to pay 35s to 86s for parcels of good pale quality; at auction 90 casks fetched 903 to 94s for very superior green and pale yellow; this kind of Coffee is much esteemed by the trade ; 1,770 bags are declared for sale on Thursday. Cuba has been sought after, and rather higher rates offered, but the small quantity at market has prevented operations of moment. Ceylon is wanted, but there is little to be had, small parcels of good ordinary have yielded 109 s : 220 bags are declared for sale on Tuesday. The home trade are much in want of Mocha, and, the supply being small, holders have obtained the high rates of 150 s to 152 s for fine yellow, and 130 s to 145 s for middlmg to good, and there is nothing of sound quality to be bought under 130 s ; accounts from Bombd state that all parcels had been bought up ; about 500 bales are on their passage. In Brazil large purchases have been m,Pie privately, and holders have obtained prices which they Xuld not last week, good to fine ordinary quality has fetched 55s to 655, and very superior clean 68s to 70s, the latter kind is the most preferred. Laguayra and Padang have commanded prices rather above those of the late auctions, there are not many parcels offering for sale. Fo some piles of Batavia 78s to 79s has been paid privately for good ordinary : at auction 52 casks ord sold at 655. The im proved demand for Coffee is to be attributed to the reaction in the Tea market ; the arrivals since we last wrote have been 7,600 bags, 960 of which consists of Ceylon. Foreign is held firmly, the stock being small, but the demand has been limited; previous rates, however, have been maintained. By private contract the sales i n St. D om i ngo have been only 10-d bags at 49s ; 180 bags at au c ti on f etched 488 to 49s forgood ordinary mixed pale, In Brazil the private sales are hot worth , ,-- enumerating, and there has been no public sale. For actin at Rotterdam, on the 2d March, 24,029 bags Sumatra, 123,87 d bags Java, and 1,093 brls are declared. For sale at Amsterdam, on the sth March, 13,030 bags Sumatra, 169,577 bags Java, and 2,110 brls are declared. A good many vessels have ar ffved off the coast with Coffee from the Brazils. This :.`fternoon all kinds of East India and Cape Coffee were in good request by private treaty, and prices have again im proved. British Plantation is wanted, but there is scarcely any to be met with : the only public sale was 55 casks Java, which went off at 80s to 87e 6d for fine green quality. Cocoa.—Prices of British Plantation for home use remain firm ; middling red Trinidad has fetched 555. TEA.—The accounts received from Canton to Nov. 7th being of a more decidedly unfavourable character than those previously come to hand, a great number of Chinese sailors having been killed in an action with two of her Majesty's ships of war, and all the negotiations with Captain Elliott hav ing ceased, have produced much excitement in the Tea market during the last two days ; the trade as well as speculators have evinced much anxiety to purchase Free Trade Tea, but buying has in some measure been checked in consequence of the advanced rates demanded by holders, still there has been a large business transacted at an advance on the rates of this day week of 3id to 4d per lb, common Congou for cash selling at 2s Ild to 2s 1 lid, and with a prompt 3s to 3s Id, Twankay common at 3s to 3s Id for money, and 3s 2d to 31 2id with a prompt ; the former has beets the most in request, and at these rates several of the merchants are not disposed to sell, being confident that from the long suspension of established in tercourse which must take place between this country and China prices will be higher ; all the parcels of Tea offering at reasonable prices have been bought up. In Company's Con you the transactions have been extensive at the improved rates of 3s Id to 3s 14d for cash, 3s 2d to 3s 3d with a one and two, and 3s 4d with a three months' prompt, and some parties are not inclined to sell on these terms. The monthly sates, which commence on Monday next, consisting of 93,995 packages, or 6,514,300 lbs, are expected to be nnmerously at tended; at present there are a good many buyers in town from various parts of the country. The Customs have seriously thought of the subject of allowing Tea to be admitted at the 2s Id duty put on board British ships by the Americans, and have stopped the cargo of the " Hucles, ' from Hoag Kong, consisting of 3,762 chests, 2,644 half cheso, 1,000 boxes Tea, in consequence of her not having the certificate of the British Superintendent, and other cargoes coming in the same manner will share the same fate. The cargo of the " Marmion," from Hong Kong, has been positively admitted at the 2s Id duty. The delivery last week amounted to 400,000 lbs. This day the transactions in Free Trade Teas were exten sive ; speculators as well as the trade were eager buyers, and prices again advanced, common Congou for cash selling at Ild to 2s 110, with a prompt 3s op to 3s hi, Twankay 33 Id to 3s 4d money, with a prompt 3s 21-cl to 3s 3d. In Company's Congou large sales were made at 3s 11td to 3s 2d for cash, 3s 2nd with or - ii.onth's, 3s 4d with two months', and 3s 5d with a three months' prompt, and some parties will not sell under 3s 6d for the latter purpose ; in fact, several holders are not disposed to sell for such a length of time. It is now impossible to buy under 3s 2d per lb for cash. This afternoon at a late hour the operations in Tea were et. tensive at the rates quoted above ; the number of country buyers on 'Change was large, and the rates previously esta blished were refused for some large parcels. MOLASSES.—West India are held firmly, and a fair amount of business has been transact , d by private contract, at the rates established on this day week; at auction, 105 puns 38 casks Barbadoes were taken in, but sold after the sale at 36s for good middling quality, and 189 puns of St. Lucia of dark descrip. tions at 325. Otr.s.—A steady demand has prevailed for pale Seal and Cod Oil since we last wrote, chiefly for home use, and at the rates quoted, In Southern f ormer p r i ces h ave been main tained. In Sperm Oil prices remain firm ; 40 tuns from New York were taken in at 110/., the quality was not very fine. Linseed Oil 24s 6d ; for delivery in the next three and four months 25s 3d a 25s 6d. Rape Oil, pale, 37, a 37s 6d, and brown 36s a 36s 6d. Palm in small parcels at 331 lOs a 341 lOs for gogd and fine quality. East India Cocoa Nut is held for 43s a 43s 6d per cwt.

South American, 49s to 49s 6d for good quality. At public sale 106 casks 14 bags stranded Russia Tallow sold at 48s 6d to 49s 6d per cwt. Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.--For all kinds of Rum, the demand has been very limited since we last wrote, and the purchase in Jamaica and Leewards have not exceeded 100 puns, at previous rates for the former, but for the latter easier prices have been accepted. For Brandy the demand has been very extensive, and prices have advanced 2d per gallon ; spe culators have been the principal purchasers, in consequence of there now being no doubt but that the duty will be reduced: Cognac, Ist brands of the vintage of 1836, in puns and hhdl, have been disposed of at 5s 2d to 5s 4d; ditto 1837, 5s to 5s 2d ; ditto 1838, 4s 9d to 4s l Id, and some parties are not in clined to sell at these rates. Geneva has sold steadily at 2s to 2s Id. British Corn Spirits are firmer, and a good demand has prevailed at 9s 10d to 9s I Id, and some houses will not sell under lOs per gallon.

Persons in any part of the United Kingdom can send a shilling in an envelope not pre-paid, di rected to Mr. Clement, jun., Observer Office, London, and the two sheets will be sent by re t urn o f post. The Observer will be kept on sale all next week. On this occasion-the-San day and Monday edition will be the same, time not admitting of the usual alteration. ST. JAMES'S PALACE.—The state apartments at St. James's Palace were thrown open to the public on Thursday and yesterday ; the crowds to witness them were very great, but owing to the excellent arrangements there was very little difficulty in getting a view. The gates were opened at ten o'clock and closed at four. Only a few per. sons were allowed to pass the barriers at a time, by which plan all confusion and unpleasantness was obviated.
