Gosport, in the presence of a most numerous and "brilliant assemblage of rank, beauty, and bravery of the __ united services. Lieut.-General Lord Saltoun, K.C.8., • G.C.H., the recently appointed colonel of the regiment, was present at the ceremony, the first time be had seen his regiment since acquiring its command. The Rev. Veck, of Forton, consecrated the colours, which were rd delivered by Lady Fitzclarence into the hands of Lo Saltoun, who gave them to the senior majors (Lloyd . and Gilland), and who c onsi g ned them to the custody of the senior ensigns (M'Ca rth y and fogies).They were then trooped, their guard en terin g on the left of the line between the ranks, and passing to the right. On the new colours arriving at the centre, the ensigns bear ing them exchanged places with those bearing the old emblems, the band playing a point of war. On the ar rival of the old colours at the right of the line they were escorted to the orderly room, the band playing " Should auld acquaintance be forgot," &c. The regiment then underwent inspection by the generals, and the senior (Lord Saltoun) addressed them in the most gratifying , terms expressive of his unqualified satisfaction with their highly efficient and serviceable state and soldierly bearing. Lady Augusta Fitzclarence, who was accomp an i e d by her daughter, went through the imposing ceremony ' ,w ith much grace and dignity. . A grand banquet and ball con c l u d e d th e i n t eres ti ng - were of the day, to which upward s o f 200 f as hi ona bl es *ere invited. - Fitzclarence pledged the colonel, lieut.-colonel, rand the regiment in a bumper of champagne, and wished them every success in their career of service, alluding 4 Tery tritely and warmly to the tact of Lieut.-Colonel Carruthers and himself having been at the military col lege together thirty-three years ago, when the Princess - Charlene presented that establishment with colours, and when he (Lord Frederick) was Colonel Carruthers' fight-hand man. Lord Saltoun acknowledged the compliment conve3ed 4 - n: the toast for himself and the gallant officers and men 4 5cabodied in the pledge. After which the guests .ad journed to an elegantly fitted up ball-room, converted ut of the officers' quarters, where the pleasures of the Rance were enjoyed until the " shades of evening" com 4telled a reuctant countermarch homewards. t. The superb French and Rhenish wines served at this elegant dejeuner were provided from the well-known riderehe establishment of Mr. Edwin Galt, of Ports iithuth, army and navy wine -merchant, and their exce'.• )ency yielded pre-eminent satisfaction. On Monday the first division of the regiment left Forton by the South-Western Railway for London, thence they proceed to Liverp-01, where they embark for Ireland to a quarter at Athlone, to be succeeded at Vorton by the Cork Rifles.

Her Majesty's ship Conway, Captain belly, which arrived here on Wednesday last, sailed from Ascension the day before the Earl of Hardaicke left St. Helena; the latter ship has therefore made her passage from St. Helena in less time than the Conway has from Ascension—another instance of the splendid seagoing qualities of Mr. Green's fleet.

By the John Brew, r, arrived at Plymouth, we have received Cape papers to the 12th of May ; but they contain no news of importance. The following are extracts from the South African Commercial Advertiser of May 12th : " There is no news from the frontier. The landing of supplies at the mouth of the Buffalo River will pro baby enable the troops and burghers to operate with effect on the refractory chiefs on and beyond the Kei. On neither side of the border are many complaints heard, though thefts of oxen are occasionally reported. The Lieutenant-Governor has taken up his residence in Graham's Town, and entered on the discharge of his official duties. " Some confusion seems to have arisen respecting the issue of rations, &c., to the provisional levies, or others, except her Majesty's regular forces. There are three great officers on the frontier at present—the Go ernor and Commander-in Chief, the Lieutenant-General Com manding, and the Lieutenant-Governor. If their pro vinces are not well defined, the only s,,fety for the colony will be found in one swallowing up the other two. Re laxation of authority has been the bane of this war from the beginning. " By the report of the committee of Commercial Ex change it appears that the imports of last year exceeded those of the preceding year by 53,4911. ; to which is to be added specie, as good an import as any, 159,3691 The total increase therefore is 212,8601. The vaiue of the exports is less than that of the preceding year by 29,882/. 13s. 6]. The determination of the Secretary for the Colonies not to take any steps for the prosecution of the undertak ing for rendering Table Bay more safe and commodious for shipping and trade, by the construction of a break water, has been received here with very general dis• satisfaction. The undertaking had been for many years under consideration at the Cape." RIVER PLATE. EXTRACT OF A LETTER RECEIVED FROM MONTE VIDEO, PER WILHELMINE, ARRIVED AT DARTMOUTH. Monte Video, May 10, 1847. The Rattler steamer came in yesterday with Lord Howden. On her arrival off this port the Commodore went down to meet her, and ordered the Firebrand to go also. After remaining off the port for about two hours, both steamers proceeded up to Buenos Ayres, the Com modore haring hoisted his flag on board the Firebrand. We are of opinion that the presence of Sir Thomas Her bert at Buenos Ayres will do a great deal towards arriv ing at a favourable termination of the question. We notice your fears of French intrigue, but from what we have seen siace the arrival of Count Walewski, we think little is to be apprehended. We have already informed you that the Baron Deffaudis and Admiral Laine have nothing whatever to do in the affair, as both leave to-morrow for Rio de Janeiro. Deffaudis ceased in his public capacity the moment the Count landed, and took immediate steps to leave the country. The marines and sailors of Leine 's vessel, the Africaine, were embarked this morning. The new Ministers will see the true state of affairs, and that the bubble got up by the loan-jobbers respecting General Urquiza turns out a farce ; we therefore do not see what difficulty can exist; for to insist upon the navigation of the Parana would be absurd, as General Rosas commands both sides of it, and as to sending Consuls to Paraguay, this subject must and will be waived by Lord Howden and the Count. Our advices from Buenos Ayres are to the Bth inst., they say—" The Cassini arrived this morning. Count Walewski's secretary and M. Bazin Desprey, nephew and late aide de-camp to Admiral Mackau, are at pre sent engaged in an interview with M. Arana, and, from what we can pick up, everything looks conviliatory ; indeed a good authority states that it is all settled." We hope a very few days will throw some light on this question.

The ational says, " 1,200 electors of Paris assembled yesterday (t riday) afternoon, at the Château Rouge, to make a remarkable demonstration in favour of electoral reform. The spectacle was magnificent. The most perfect order did not prevent the expression of the warmest sentiments. We confine ourselves, at present, to a description of the general impression. It was most excellent. " The assembly was constituted after the model of the central committee of electors, which organized and directed it with as much zeal as intelligence. The great majority of the Opposition deputies figured there beside the representatives of the Paris press and of that of th, departments. The Marseillaise hymn was executed by a full band, and was loudly applauded. We shall after to-morrow give a detailed account of the orators and their speeches. They were all applauded lit). an assembly animated . by . a patriotic . fire such as will ever animate any meeting invoked in recol lection of the principles of the French revolution.. M. Lasteyrie, the elder, a veteran of '89,. and ever . consistent in his principles, presided. The vice-presidents were MM. Recurt and Paguerre. The assembly separated towards 11 o'clock, after a manifestation that must pro duce a profound sensation throughout France." " Eleven hundred and forty tickets for this dinner were issued," says our private letter, " and only sixty of that number remained unpresented. The tickets were strictly personal; no transfer was allowed. The most rigid scrutiny was exercised to prevent the intrusion of any but the person named on each ticket. The police were consequently unrepresented at the banquet. The doors were opened at five, but dinner was not served till eight o'clock. A band of sixty musicians were in attendance, which when the company sat down to table struck up the Mar3eillaise to the derangement of many whose enthusiasm suppressed their appetite. " Out of doors the first notes of the hymn put an end to the decorous silence of the 3,000 men who sun ounded the château. 1 say with surprise their silence, for al though they amounted to that number, and although the request of the stewards to have, as usual at public entertainments, a few Municipal Guards present to pre serve order was not complied with, the utmost decorum was observed by that immense crowd. "La Marseil laise" was, however, irresistible. The thousand men win an ! t d h Tef ahhtai a igui n ui d fl iotnetrh: oncee it tt for rr withe t ha all utsha their td without took up the strain, enthusiastic Nan n patriots;to b regretted,ebut when you too " learn that it was repeated after every one of the seven toats d• and that the Marseillaise comprises seven j stanzas, you will ad m i re t h e constancy and the power lungs of those who added one cheer more to that for midable repetition." The Commerce s t a t es t h at t h e following toasts were given at the electoral refor m b anquet at the Château Rouge on Friday :—" The national Sovereignty," b M. de Lasteyrie ; " Th e R evo l ut i on of July" byj MM. Recurt and Odil on B arret ; " Electoral' and Parliamentary Reform," by MM. Paguerre and Duvergier de Hauranne ; " The city of Paris," by MM. Serrard and Marie ; " The improvement of the con dition of the Labouring Classes," by MM. Grizier and Gustave de Beaumont ; " The Press," by MM. Riglet Chambolle and F. Degeorge ; " The Deputies of the Opposition," by MM. Hamelin and Leon de Malleville 11. Armand Marrast, the editor of the National, was likewise to have spoken, but he was compelled by sudden indisposition to withdraw before the conclusion of the banquet. The whole affair terminated at a quarter past eleven o'clock, without the occurrence of the slightest disorder. OVERWORK AMONG THE FaßatEns.---Near Gains borough, Lincoln, and Louth, the labourers walk ev,n longer distances than near Reading. I am informed of instances where they walk as far as six miles, that is, 12 miles daily, or seventy-two miles weekly, to and from their places of work. Let us consider tae bare economy, the mere waste of labour, and what a state of agricul tural management is indicated by the fact that such a waste can have taken place. Fifteen miles a day is the regular march of infantry soldiers, with two rest days— one on Monday and one on Thursday; twenty-four miles is a forced march. The man who expends eight miles per diem, or forty-eight miles per week, expends to the value of at least two days' hard labour per week, or one hundred in the year, uselessly, that might be expended usefully and remuneratively in production. How different is it in manufactories, and in some of the mines, or at least in the best managed and most successful of them! In some mines as much as 2,0001. and 3,000/. is paid for new machinery to benefit the labourers, and save them the labour of ascending and descending by ladders. In many manufactories they have hoists to raise them and their loads from lower to upper rooms, to save them the labour of toiling up stairs, to economise their strength for piecework to mutual advantage. The Rev. Frederick Peel. of Gainsborough, informs me, " I have farms under my knowledge where the labourers, going to and fro, do not walk less than a hundred miles a week." The whole of this mileage, paid partly by the farmer and ownerpartly bbyinlthseelfl,abmounyrebr,e set an downd inp to the law o f paroch•lart, eventually, by th e settlement. —Mr. Chadwick's Speech at a Meeting of the Farmers' Club.

LONDON, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 13, 1847. LIFE IN THE WEST. The following catalogue of horrors is culled from the American papers, received by the Caledonia and Hiber nia:—Mr. Alva Hotchkiss, clockmak , r, of Brooklyn, was followed from his shop, and robbed and murdered en his way home.—A negro, in Maryland, murdered an other negro. He despatched his victim with a grubbing hue, and afterwards cut off his head. The quarrel origi nated about parched corn.—A man named Stewart, ar rested in Clinton county, Ohio, for the murder of his wife, after his apprehension, cut his throat, but the doc tors sewed it up, and he was confined in a dungeon. Here he put his design of self-destruction in execution, by striking his head, while chained down, against the floor and wall, until his skull was fractured, and his brains ooaed out.—When found he was quite dead.—At Port Gibson, Mississipi, a short time since, J. F. Site was tried end convicted for the murder of Benjamin G. Sims. The evidence of the principal witness, a young daughter of the deceased, was of the most affecting character. She said she had gone down the road to meet her father on his return home; that as she approach ed she saw the accused rise from a corner of the fence, and deliberately shoot him down. He approached his victim after his fall, and despite her supplications and tears, the pleadings of her parent, who as he lay bleed ing on the ground, begged the w r e t c h t o s p are hi s lir e for the sake of his wife and children, the fiend stabbed the dying man in many places, and stamped with his heel upon the face of his victim. Th e s t atemen t o f th e interesting little girl was clear and distinct, interrupted only by her sobs and tears. There was not a dry eye in the Court house—every heart wa s me l te d w ith sym pathy. The counsel for the accused threw up the came wi.hout a word of defence, and the j ur y returne d a ver diet of guilty.—At Philadelphia, in a low rum-hole, a father bet five dollars that his little son could drink three bottles of porter. The lad drank two, and became insensible, when the wretched father poured the contents of the third bottle down the boy' s th roat . M e di ca l a id was called to save the child's life.—ln Western Canai;a, an Indian entered the house of a respectable Scotch set tler. named Archibald Crawford, res idi ng i n t h e b ac k o f Dunwich, and committei an infamous outrage on the person of his wife. On the return of h e r h us b an d, Mr s . Crawford mentioned to him what had happened. Some time afterwards, the same Indian, carry i ng a gun , re turned to the housein the evening, when Crawford was at home, and requested leave to remain overnight. Mrs. Crawford told her husband in Gaelic that this was the man who had abused her, and Crawford consequently refused to allow him to remain. The Indian shouldered his gun and went out, followed to the door by Crawford. When Crawford stood in the doorway, the Indian was immediately in his front, but with his back to him. As the gun, however, was lying over his shoulder, it pointed directly at Crawford's breast; the Indian, without turn ing, pulled the trigger of the gun, the coatents lodged in Crawford's body, and the unfortunate man fell dead on the spot.—At Greenupsburgh, Kentucky, Wm. H. Step ter, a young man seventeen years of age, was ex , cuted for the murder of his mother. The father was arrested on the charge, and would, unquestionably, have been hanged, if his son, to whom no suspicion whatever was attached, had no t vo l untar il y come f orwar d and reletse d his father by declaring that he alone was the guilty per son.—An India n d octor recent l y a b scon d e d f rom Green wich, Connecticut, with a girl between seventeen and eighteen years of age, the daagnter of a widow.

A short time ago, Colonel Edward Stiff, editor of the Ceder Bluff h i ) Sentinel, was in an excited state on the street: of that town, armed with weapons of slaughter when an inoffensive citizen went to him and advised him to desist from any purpose to kill. The Colonel demanded to know who he was, and after being told a friend, he replied that he would shoot him first. and immediately fired on him and killed him. P. Whis tler, of Missouri, whilst riding along the highway, was shot by some assassin, who fired upon him from a cluster of bushes. Three balls were lodged in his body—one in his breast, one iu his thigh, and one above the hip. lie died the next day. A company of Oregon emigrants wt re lately attacked by a baud of Mormons, who robbed and murdered all except two, who contrived to escape. The Holly Springs (Tenn.) Gazette says— " A worthy young man, by the name of Carpenter, was murdered on Saturday last, in the most shocking manner, by a slave whom he was attempting to chastise. Carpenter was literally chopped to pieces by the demon, receiving many heavy blows from the edge of an axe on the shoulders, back, and other parts of his person. any one of which would have produced death. The murderer was immediately apprehended. The Neu, Orleans Delta of the 25th of May says—" On Sunday last an unfortunate rencontre took place between Dr. Wilson and Mr. Augustus Whitney. Mr. Whitney re ceived two balls—one in the thigh, and the other in the side above the hip, and at a late hour last evening was pronounced to be in a very critical state." At Natchez, Mississippi, John Clemmons, or Clements, a Tennessee fiat-bone trader, while sitting quietly in his boat, was attacked by some unknown person with a hatchet, and left for dead. He survived the blow two days, and gave the facts of the case stating that the murderer's object was money, he having searched and ransacked the vessel after dealing the fatal blow. AN ATTEMPT AT MURDER. On Friday last a foul attempt was made by a man to murder his wife, at Swinton, a parish adjoining the town of Nottingham. The event occurred about half past seven o'clock in the evening, in a secluded part of the road called " True Lovers'-walk," leading from Swinton Church to the Hermitage. The parties, Jacob Parrott, a dyer, aged 28, and Elizabeth, his wife, have been married four years, but owing to her inconstant habits, the man has led a very unhappy and miserable life. Soon after marriage she began to form illicit con nexions, and she has absconded three several times with three different married men. On the last occasion she was away with a man for nearly four months, and only vhheeefyormidable wound on returned to her mother's house in Milk-street, Notting ,oubtutwbaelkininggto ham, a week or ten days ago.

The woman was placed in a hackney-coach, taken to her mother's, in Milk-street, and from thence to the General Hospital. The wound in her neck, though frightful and danger 'us,will not, it is believed , proved fatal. On Saturday , Parrott was taken before Thomas Nixon, F. Hart, and R. N.

CIVIL SlDE.—(Before Mr. Justice COLLRIDGE and a Special Jury.) SMITH V. SC:)TT AND OTHERS. Mr. Whateley and Mr. Phipsori appeared for the plaintiff; Mr. Godson and Mr, Maynard for the de fendant. This was an action against the prooprietors of the Morning Advertiser newspaper, for a libel contained in a report of proceedings at the Judges' chamuers, before Mr. Justice Erie and Mr. Justice Cresswell respectively, on application by the plaintiff to get released trom cus tody by virtue of his discharge and certificate under the bankruptcy laws. The defendants pleaded only "Not Guilty," aid the principal question in the cause was, whether the report was not a fair and correct account of what took place. It appeared that the plaintiff was formerly a barrister on the South Wales circuit; that he, about the year 1836, originated some waterworks in Glamorganshire, and subsequently started the Swansea Journal, and afterwards, having become involved to the extent of upwards of 20,0001., had a fiat in bankruptcy struck against him in the Bristol District Court, passed his examinations, and was discharged and granted a certificate by the commissioner. Being afterwards taken into custody by some of his creditors, who had not proved at Bristol, he applied at the Judges' cham bers in London for his release by virtue of his certi ficate—first to Mr. Justice Erie, and subsequently to Mr. Justice Cresswell. These applications were resisted. on the ground that he had lost more than 201. in one day by gaming since he had become a trader, this alle gation, of course, being supported by a sufficient number of affidavits ; and on this ground, under a provision of the bankrupt laws, that where a trader shall have lost more than 20/. in one day, or 2001. in one yetis, by gaming, his certificate shall not be a protection to him, the plaintiff's applications were refused, and he was re mitted to custody. All these facts the report in question set forth, and so far the plaintiff did not complain ; but the reporter, under a misapprehension as to the state of the law with regard to what a bankrupt should swear before getting his certificate, added that the plaintiff in his examination at Bristol denied that he had ever lost more than 201. in oue day by gambling ; and, further, in his statement of the argument of Mr. Thomas Chitty, the well. known special pleader, in opposing the plaintiff's application, described that gentleman as contending that the plaintiff had obtained his release by misrepresenta tioe, whereas, in fact, the plaintiff had no occasion to make such a denial in his examination at Bristol, and Mr. Chitty had confined himself to urging that the loss of more than 201. by gambling in one day made the certificate void, and did not at all allude to the examina tion at Bristol. The plaintiff's counsel, in stating the case, expre-sed his readiness to take a verdict for such damages as would carry costs, if the defendants would even now consent to apologise, and state that they were in error in representing the plaintiff to have denied that he ever lost more than 201. by gambling in one day ; but this the defendants' counsel declined to do, saying that the report was a correct one, and therefore the defendants should not be punished in costs for its publication. On the part of the plaintiff it was admitted that he had gambled largely before he became a trader, and the gravamen of the libel was that he should have been re presented as having denied that he ever gambled, whereas what he denied (not at Bristol but at the Judges' cham bers) was, that he gambled since he had become a trader. It appeared that by the bankruptcy laws the plaintiff should have made an oath that he obtained his certificate by fair means, and that the certificate should set forth that he had conformed, in all respects, to the bankrupt laws; but the form of each oath etas so vaguely framed, that on a careless reading of it the deponent would seem to swear that he had conformed in all respects to those laws, whereas, he merely swore that he by fair means obtained a certificate that he bad conformed in all re spects to those laws; indeed, so apt was the frame of the oath to lead an unlearned layman to the former conclu sion, that a quarter of an hour was consumed to day by the Learned Counsel on both sides, and the Court, be fore the counsel for the defendant appeared satisfied with, or rather ceased to contend against, the version which we, in accordance with the decision of the Court, have given as the orthodox one. It appeared in the course of the case that the defendant's liabilities were between 25,000/. and 26,000/., and that there were no assets in hand. _ _ Mr. GODSON addressed the jury on behalf of the de fendants, contending that the report was a fair and cor rect one; that when a reporter was compressing into a reasonably readable compass the substance of what occupied for several days the attention of judges at chambers, where no regular course of proceedings was pursued, but every one interrupted everybody else, and all was scrambling and confusion, no other errors could be sought to be established against him—that from the nature of the discussions which were proved to have taken place, the very statements reported in the de fendants' paper must have been made on the part of those who opposed the plaintiff's application for his dis charge; and that even if an error had been accidentally committed, the plaintiff was not a chat acter who could possibly be entitled to more than half a farthing da mages. His LoRDsuIP, in summing up, told the jury that if they thought the report in queution a correct account of proceedings in a court of justice, then they should find for the defendant's; but if they were of opinion that, though not correct, yet it was a fair, bond fide, and well intentioned statement of what occurred, they should give the defendants the benefit of this impression, by limiting the amount of the damages to which they should think the plaintiff entitled. The jury, after a few minutes' consideration, gave a verdict for 40, damages; and an observation having been subsequently. made at the bar as to costs, it being for a moment doubted by somebody whether an action for libel was not within the jurisdiction of the county courts, the jury said that they intended to secure the plaintiff his costs. Oxford, July 10. The commission was opened here to• day. The number of prisoners is nine, and the number of causes two. One is an action for goods sold and delivered, and virtually indefensible; and the other is an action on a warranty as to the character of some elm saplings, bought some five or six years back, of the defendant by the pla►ntiff. The courts open at nine o'clock on Monday, and will. in all probability, get rid of all the business in the course of the day. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. The Court sat yesterday morning for the disposal of appeds, an unusually large number of which stood upon the list for hearing. GOODLAND, APPELLANT, JARDINE, RESPONDENT. This was an appeal against a conviction by the re spondent, whereby the appel:ant was sentenced to one month's imprisonment, on a ch.irge of stealing a dog. After hearing counsel on both sides, the Bench decided upon ordering the conviction Lo be quashed. The Court then proceeded to hear parish appeals, in none of which the slightest portion of public interest occurred. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. SEN rENCES AND SESSIONAL Ii,ELTLTS.

Wiliam Russell, a bootmaker, residing in Cheapside, was placed before Mr. Bingham, charged with furiously driving and knockin g down two men, whereby their lives were endangered. Mr. Denis itarlQw, 51, Wignaore-street, stated that about half-prst ten o'clock on Saturday night he was walking along Oxford-street, when his attention was called to the prisoner, who was driving a horse and gig at a rapid rate. Witness watched him for a few minutes, and saw him run in contact with a cab. He then ap peared to have lost all control over the animal, which dashed along faster than before. Witness pursued the prisoner, and subsequently saw him knock down two men who were crossing the road. The men were so severely injured that they were taken to Middlesex Hospital, where they are now lying in a precarious state. The prisoner was eventually stopped near Thomas street, and taken to the station. Mr. George Frost, No. 9, Queen Charlotte -•row, New road, said he was in an omnibus in Oxford-street on the night in question, and saw the prisoner flogging his horse, which was proceeding at a rapid rate ; he sub sequently saw him run over two men, who were picked up in an insensible state. Mr. C. Dobson proved seeing the prisoner flogging his horse previous to the two men being knocked down. Witness saw him run over an old lady. He afterwards assisted in conveying him to the station. The constable who received charge of the prisoner produced two certificates from the surgeon at Middlesex H. , spital, which certified that the two men were in a very dangerous state from injuries received by being run over. The constable added that the prisoner did not appear to be in liquor. Mr. BINGHAM said, under those circumstances he must remand the prisoner till a future day, in order to see the result of the inju-ies received by the men. Mr. Robinson, who attended for the prisoner, applied to have him admitted to bail. Mr. BINGHAM said he had no objection to do so, pro vided that good and substantial bail of two housekeepers in 100/. each, and the prisoner in the like sum, was offered for his (the prisoner's) appearance on Tuesday week. Bail was immediately offered and accepted. THAMES. _ - Ikey Solomons was charged with having stolen a quantity of gin from the premises of Mr. Purton, pro prietor of the Bedford Arms Tavern, Commercial-road. Mr. Purton stated that for a considerable time past he had missed large quanties of gin from a vat in his cellar, for the disappearance of which he could in no way ac count, till, the day before yesterday, he noticed that a small trap-door in the flooring, between his top-room and the cellar, just large enough to admit of a man pass ing his arm down it, and which he had secured by pass - ing three iron bolts and a staple underneath, had been forced, thus showing the mode in which the gin had been abstracted. Suspicion fell upon the prisoner, who had been noticed to be very fond of being in the tap room when no other person was there. Ile came in on Saturday evening, called for half a pint of beer, and took it into the tap-room with the newspaper. There was no other person in the taproom. Witness immediately concealed himself behind a door commanding a view of his cellar, and shortly after saw the prisoner put his arm down the aperture and dip some gin out of the cask. His potman also saw the transaction. Witness immediately sent for the police and gave him into custody. Mr. Purton added that he had missed as much as ten gallons at the time from his gin vat. This evidence was — corroborated by the potman and police-constable K 83, who had examined the premises, and produced the trap-door and bolts in question. He also found a bottle containing gin on the prisoner. Solomons asserted that he was innocent, and had pur chased the gin found on him. He was fully committed for trial MARKET NEWS.-(YESTERDAY.) LOAN EXCHANGE. The arrivals of English Wheat for our market, last week, were on a very moderate scale, while those of all other articles of home produce were trifling in the ex treme. From Ireland and Scotland scarcely any Grain or Flour came to hand ; but, from abroad, we received 22,867 quarters of Wheat, 2,330 quarters of Barley, 12,610 quarters of Oats, 7,736 quarters of Beans, and 18,324 barrels of Flour, which may be considered a fair average importation. Fresh up to day, very little Wheat of home produce came to hand. This circumstance, together with most of the foreign imports being in very middling condition, caused the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce to rule very firm, at an improve ment in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight of from 4s to 5s per quarter, and at which a good char ar.ce was effected. At the close of the market scarcely any English Wheat remained unsold. Notwithstanding the show of foreign Wheat was large, the sale for that article was somewhat active. Most of the millers being short of stock, especially of fine qualities, the demand for the best importations was firm, and the quotations were from 3s to 4s per quarter higher than on Monday last, and at which amount of improvement a full average amount of business was transacted. The supply of all kinds of Barley was very small, still, however, the malsters and others purchased with extreme caution at but little, if any, variation in prices. Most of the Barley on show was of foreign growth. The best parcels of Malt commanded a steady sale at full prices, but all other qualities hung on hand, al though the supply was extremely small. We had only a limited show of Oats, nevertheless the Oat trade was in a sluggish state at about last week's currencies. The quantity of Beans brought forward was good, while the sale was heavy at last week's quotations. In Peas, the supply of which was small, so little was doing that the quotations were almost nominal. Indian Corn was held at Is to 2s per quarter more money, but the sales wen very small. Barrelled Flo.ir was 2s higher i in sack qualities no change took place. Seeds generally were dull, but not cheaper. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE wheat—Essex & Kent.

Gene rally speaking, its quality was inferior, and much diffi culty was experienced in effecting a clearance, nothwith standing the salesmen submitted to lower terms. There was, compared with that exhibited on Monday last, a considerable increase in the number of home-fed on sale, owing to which, and the prevailing hot weather, the Beef trade was in a very inactive state, at a decline in the quotations obtained on this day se'nnight of quite 2d per 81bs. The very highest figure for the best Scots was ss, but the more general currency for the first quality of Beef did not exceed 43 10d per 81bs. !'here were some extremely well made up Beasts on offer; yet the total supply was by no means first-rate. and several complaints have reached us of the mode in which this description of stock dies. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we received 900 Scots, homebreds, and short horns; from the western s and midland districts, 920 Herefords, runts, De e v e o d il s t &c.; an from other parts of England, SOO of various b roM Scotland, 220 homed and pollea.SecroetsThre numbers increase; hence the of Sheep were considerably the 4d c p u e r r - Mutton trade was e xtremely . trncies declined from 2d . to ,n de s t'llp om erel e snse i d n ' sta a n n e d es old Downs might have pro 81bs.

The supplies on offer killed in the metropolis have been very small ; yet, from the be fore-mentioned cause, the general demand has been in a sluggish state, and, in some instances, the quotations — especially those of the inferior qualities—have had a downward tendency. Several packages of Beef have come to hand from liamburgh, in very middling condi tion, while about 2,000 carcases of foreign meat have sold at late rates.
