The former pri soner, who had conducted himself most impudently on hear ing the sentence, addressed the judge in these words— " You'll be in hell before I've served that." Owen Rooney, 35, pleaded guilty to an indictment charg ing him with feloniously uttering a counterfeit shilling, and with having eight other false shillings in his possession. He was sentenced to 9 months imprisonment and hard labour. John Rozelle, who had been before convicted of stabbing and cutting at rodmorden, was again placed at the bar, on a charge of stealing at Todmorden and Walsden—a silk gown, the property of William Bock. It appeared that the prisoner lodged with the parties at Todmorden who had removed into another house. The dress was then lost (according to the principal witnesses), but it was not missed for twelve days afterwards, when a box was found broken open. The prisoner cross-questioned the witness at considerable length. He excited some amusement in the court, and elicited the admission that many other persons were in the house when the box was said to be broken open, and that one of them was a man of very loose and bad character. Another witness swore to the prisoner having pledged the gown at Rochdale. On cross-examination by the prisoner, the witness said that when he pledged the dress he had a very black eye, and was disfigured in the face, yet she knew him again when she saw him before the magistrates. She admitted that the prisoner earned a good deal of money in his trade as a shoemaker, and that the distance from Tod morden to Rochdale was nine miles. The prisoner said in his defence, that the party of bad cha racters who had been with him, bore a strong resemblance to himself in every point, and been mistaken for him on several occasions. This was not denied. Any of the charge of i The ' learned JUDGE summed up, and the jury found the prisoner —Not Guilty. The learned JUDGE then proceeded to pass sentence on the prisoner for stabbing James, Lawe. Both the prisoner and the wounded party were in liquor at the time, and the knife, a small one, was pulled out under irritation. The prisoner was afterwards struck and kicked most grievously. This should be considered : but the prisoner should nev carry a knife. The sentence d the Court was that he imprisoned for eight calendar months, and kept to bard labour. The Court rose at five minutes past six o'clock NISI PRIUS COURT.—MONDAY. Mr. Baron Rolfe took his seat at half-past nine o'clock, By this action, which was undefend e d, J ames H utton, an iron merchant, of Manchester, sought to recover from Joseph Cliff, an ironfounder, of Huddersfield, the sum of £66 6s 6d, on a bill of exchange, for goods sold and delivered. Verdict for the plaintiff. MIDDLETON V. SHERBURNE. Baron ROLFE asked if any arrangement had been made respecting the above case. Mr. CRESSWELL replied, that his client had, since the subject was last alluded to, received a notice to inspect 581 documents. He had previously received notice to inspect 126 documents, and now this order had come suddenly to him. It was extfemely painful to his (Mr. Cresswell's) feel ings to interfere when it was desired to fix a day for this or any other trial, and after the observations which had been made upon the subject he found that it would be most satis factory to his feelings not to interfere in the question. Mr. DUNDAS was about to address the Court, when Baron ROLFE said, he felt the full force of what Mr. Cresswell had said. In this case there was evidently a strong reason for not forcing on the trial. Mr. DUNDAS said; from communication which had been made with Sir W. Follett, he found that he (Sir W. Follett) could come on the 12th of April, if neither the sth nor the Bth would suit Mr. Cresswell. STATHAM AND ANOTHER, ASSIGNEES, V. YATES. Mr. Alexander and Mr. Tomlinson appeared for the plain tiffs, and Mr. Cresswell and Mr. Hoggins for the defence. The action was brought by the assignees of Messrs. John and Joseph Moss, dyers and bleachers, near Manchester, to recover from the defendant, Mr. Joseph Yates, the sum of £lB Ils Bd, for dying a quantity of yarns, in the months of September and October, 1839. It was alleged, on the part of the plaintiff, that in the month of September, in the above year, a quantity of yarns were sent by the defendant to to the plaintiff's to be dyed brown. The process which the goods underwent to fix the required tint was described, and the yarns, when finished, were tested by competent per sons, in order to prove if the colours would stand. The yarn was sent home, and an invoice with it, at the bottom of which appeared a notification that all yarns sent to be dyed at Messrs. Moss' would be considered as general liens for mo ney owing to them, and that all claims for damage, unless made within one month, would not be allowed. The charge made for this parcel was £lO ss. A second parcel was sent on the 4th of October, part of which was dyed brown by the same operation, and similarly tested by bleaching, and was found to have been properly dyed. On the 3d of November following Messrs. Moss became bankrupts; the accounts were gone into, and the defendant, amongst other persons, was found indebted to them. Application was made to him for payment of the sum in dispute. The defendant objected to pay, on the ground that some of the brown yarn in the second parcel was'not properly done. This parcel, as alleged by the plaintiffs, was charged fifteen shillings. The defen dant said that all the fabric of the brown yarn dyed had been spoiled ; therefore he would not pay, and the plaintiffs might go to law. An action was accordingly brought, which was to have been tried before the sheriff : but that was prevented by a demurrer, and the case was therefore brought for trial at the assizes. The pleadings on the part of the defendant were, first, that he was not indebted ; second, that he admit ted the work, but it was a custom amongst dyers that they should deduct the amount of any damage done to goods in the process of dying ; and, third, that one thousand pounds of the yarn sent in the second parcel had been so ill done that it was of no use ; that damage to the amount of £2O had been done, which, as that was more than the £lB Ils. Bd. claimed, the defendant was not indebted. The witnesses for the piaintiffs were principally the work men who had superintended the process of dying the yarns in question. It was stated that the first part of the process was to put the yarn in lime -water, then into a solution of bronze liquor, again into lime-water, again into bronze li quor, and, to use the words of the witness, " you carry on in this manner, according to the mode required, till your stuff is done brown :" it is then put into a solution of chlo ride of lime, then into a solution of hot alkali (called soap), and then into a stove and dried. The testing process was to put the stuff into boiling hot alkali, then into cold chloride of lime, and to wash thoroughly with cold water. It was then put into a weak solution of sulphuric acid. and after wards into the hot alkali again. This process was repeated ; and it was stated that undyed yarns subjected to the same process (or " punishment," as the witness termed it) were thoroughly bleached. Depositions were read which shewed that acts of bank ruptcy had been committed by Messrs. Moss, both ante cedent and subsequent to the transaction in question. Mr. CRESSWELL contended that the action was not pro perly brought, and that the plaintiffs must be nonsuited. This was not a contract between the Messrs. Moss and the defendant, as alleged, the work having been done by the Messrs. Moss as agents for the assignees, because the for mer were bankrupts at the time it was done. His LORDSHIP said tlie assignees were not necessarily bound to look to any prior acts of bankruptcy. An act of bankruptcy had been committed subsequently to the trans actionrand they became assignees at a particular date, when the parties were really made bankrupt. .However, he would make a note of the point, and give Mr. Cresswell liberty to move for a nonsuit. Mr. baE;;;ETL said, he apprehended his friend must be nonsuited on another ground. The yarns were accompanied by written instructions, which had not been produced. Mr. ALEXANDER said the bankrupts' papers had got into confusion, and those papers be had shown could not be found. The learned counsel had stated this in his opening, but he had not proved it. His lordship allowed a witness to be called for the purpose of furnishing this proof. The witness could not give the required testimony, but he was prepared to show what the letter s of instruction contained. This se condary evidence was not admitted. His lordship refused to receive the objection on a ground of nonsuit, but he reserved he point With the other. to be a crown piece ris, &c., were found an attempt Is made ,t and endeavoured to stab tisoners, however .1 the crown and half-crown had given him the in- lers ; that he had ,hat it was through ficers on entering the this man was, in fact iry, called at fl hepri nwPri brought the pla come to no other conclusion a reality innocent of the charg aged 37, was indicted for ly uttered to one Sarah 'Wakes- ;hilling, well knowing it to be ndictment also charged the pri- ion, for a like offence, at the 1837, under the name of Thos. ti l ing into the lire but Other :re found guilty now, alias Ilizll A.TCHERLEY and Mr. POLLOCK appeared for as undefended ae offence of the prisoner is that which is aternity as "ringing the changes"—that ,orne trifling article, offering a good half-crown -hen change was given, saying, " Oh !

It was found that two pounds of plaster of paris had been purchased from John Bianchi, some days before this affair happened, but by whom was not clearly made out Mr. MURPHY contended that there was no case against Keane, inasmuch as the evidence proved the moulds to have been not in his but in Cavanagh's possession. He referred to the interpretation clause of the act in support of his point. Mr. Sergeant ATCHERLEY said the point had been decided against his learned friend in the case of the Queen v. Rod gers, recently argued before the 15 judges. The learned JUDGE overruled the objection, but said he ld leave to the jury to say whether Keane knew Cava . ithe moulds in his possession. nagh L Muttruy then addressed the jury on the part of loth the prisoners Guilt who had been acquitted on the charge L 1 The present indict- og, was ment charged him with having a mould in his po - ssession with• The evidence was substantialy the same out lawful excuse aim in the preceding case The jury re- turned a verdict of Guilty Thomas Barlow was next placed at the bar charged with a misdemeanour by a " doubling uttering," that is, by having paid two shillings, one after the other, to two different parties.

The yarns were returned, and, when manufactured, were sent to a Mrs. Beeley to be bleached, where they stood all to which they were subjected in the process, and were rather improved thereby. When the second parcel was sent, the former in structions were referred to. The goods were returned, and, having been manufactured, were sent again to the dyers. It was then discovered, on merely washing the fabric, that the brown colour would not stand, and notice to that effect was sent to the defendant. The reply was, that it was absolutely necessary that the fabric should be bleached, and a request was made that the utmost care should be taken to preserve the brown colour, which had been interwoven with other colours in a quantity of quiltings. The goods were bleached, and the operation was completely fatal to the brown colour, which, in all the pieces into which it was woven, entirely dis appeared, while orange and several other much weaker co lours bore the test. Mr. Cresswell produced several speci mens, which were examined by the jury. The colour, in some instances, was discharged by the action of the air. The learned counsel's solution of this was, that on the second occasion Miss Moss being in embarrassed circumstances, bad materials were used, and the work was done in a slovenly and improper manner. The whole loss sustained by the defend ant, in consequence of the failure of the brown colour in the second parcel of yarns, was sworn to be 4:44 lls. 4d. Mr. ALEXANDER, in his reply, rested his case chiefly on the notification at the foot of the invoice, which he said the defendant must have read. As it was there set forth that no claim for damage would be allowed unless made within one month, it seemed rather inconsistent with the defence set up, that the damage had not been mentioned till the month of December. The trial commenced at half-past nine o'clock in the morn ing, and the JUDGE concluded his charge at twenty minutes past four in the afternoon. The jury immediately found for the defendant BAMFORD V. RADCLIFFP In this case Mr. James Bamford sought to recover from Mr. Joseph Radcliffe a sum of £95, as balance of m one y which he had held in his hands for the plaintiff's use. Mr. Cresswell and Mr. Brandt appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Alexander and Mr. Tomlinson for the defence. It appeared by the witnesses called for the plaintiff, that Mr. Bamford was formerly in partnership with two persons named Parsons and Greenwood. Owing to a fire in their mall the affairs of this firm went into confusion, soon after which a dissolution of the partnership occurred, when it was agreed that the defendant should collect in the money due to the concern, pay out Parsons and Greenwood, pay the debts due by the firm, and hand over the residue to the plaintiff. Mr. Radcliffe drew in account of the firm £1576, and certain smaller sums from others. When all was settled, there re mained a balance of £95 due to the plaintiff. The defendant made a charge for his trouble which was objected to by Mr. Bamford, who alleged that it was contrary to the agreement. When Mr. Radcliffe showed the account of his proceedings, it was disputed by the plaintiff. The defendant afterwards refused to pay the money unless an acknowledgement were given to him that the sum of £95 was all that was due to him from the plaintiff. This was declined, and as the de fendant maintained his resolution not to pay without it, the present action was brought for the recovery of the money. The case fur the plaintiff was proceeding, when Mr. Cress well having ascertained that the nature of the defence would render it necessary to examine many accounts, proposed a reference. This was acceded to. A nominal verdict was, therefore, taken for the plaintiff, subject to a reference to Mr. Jonathan Peel. JONES V. ROBINSON This was an undefended action, brought by Mrs. Mary Jones, a calenderer, of Manchester, to recover compensation for loss sustained by the non-fulfilment of a contract. Mr. Cresswell and Mr. Martin appeared for the plaintiff. It appeared that the defendant had been employed by Mrs. Jones to make a pair of calender-checks, to fit certain rollers with which she furnished him. He undertook to perfom the work, for which he charged £3O, which was paid. When Mr. Jones came to work the machine, it was found that the defendant had spoiled not only his own work but the rollers which had been entrusted to him, whereby Mrs. Jones sus tained great damage in the loss of her business, connection, &c. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, damages £B6. The court rose at a quarter before six o'clock. OIiMMiIi==MII=UNTEI kinprrial Varitanunt. HOUSE OF LORDS.—THURSDAY.

Mr. Fox MAULE stated, in reply to a question from Mr. Hume, that the Secretary of Stste for the Home Department and the commissioners of police had repudiated the idea of allowing a pecuniary compromise of the trial of a noble lord for an assault on a policeman.

JUDGE Mr. EWART then gave notice, that he would move an ad dress to the crown to obtain the opening of the portion of the Regent's Park, which is now closed, to the public. Mr. GROTE rose, pursuant to notice, to move a series of resolut•ons respecting the application of part of the Land and Emigration Fund of New South Wales to the mainte nance of gaols and police in that colony ; but, while the hon. member was addressing the house in support of his resolu tions, it was observed that there were not 40 members pre sent. The house being thereupon counted, the fact was found to be so, and an adjournment of course immediately took place. HOUSE OF LORDS.—FRID The Bishop of LONDON presented a petition from the clergy and inhabitants of Sheffield, praying that Parliament would secure the Christians of Syria from the oppressions to which they have heretofore been subject. In order to bring them selves under the protection of the European consuls, those Christians were obliged to declare that they were members of the church of Rome. He thought the present a favourable opportunity for the Government to interfere in their favour. Lord MELBOURNE replied that this subject had not escaped the attention of the Government, and exertions were making to secure for all Christians and Jews the same protection which the French Government had procured for the Roman Catholics in that portion of the Turkish dominions. In reply to a question from Lord STRANGFORD as to the state of the negotiations beween Great Britain and France, respecting the commercial relations of both countries Lord MELBOURNE said that those negociations had been in progress up to within the last few months, when they were disturbed by the misunderstanding now happily at an end ; but there was every reason to hope that they would be speedily renewed, and that a plan would be laid down for a free interchange of productions to the great benefit of both countries. The East India Rum Bill passed through committee, and the report was ordered to be received on Monday. Mr: Earle, recently in the office of the poor-law commis sioners in Ireland, was then examined touching the falsifica tion of the returns from the Clonmel union, after which their lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-FRIDAY In reply to a questionfrom Sir_ R. PEEL, Lord J. RussELL said it was his intention to postpone the further consideration of the registration of voters (England) bill until the bill for the registration of voters in Ireland should have been discussed. The house having gone into committee on the poor law amendment bill, Mr. FIELDEN moved an amendment to the second clause, the effect of which, if carried, would be to re peal the poor law act altogether. It was insisted by Lord J. Russell and Mr. Bernal that, according to the rules of the house, such an amendment could not be put. Mr. C. W. WYNN said that an instruction to the com mittee might have been moved to that effect before the house had gone into committee. ME FIELDEN said he should, on a future evening, adopt that course. Mr. WAKLEY moved that the third clause should be post poned, as being ambiguous. The clause was that which exempted from the operation of the act all parishes governed by local acts. Lord J. RUSSELL was of opinion that there was no am biguity in the clause. Sir R. PEEL thought differently, and anxious as he was to avoid delay, he thought the clause must be postponed. Lord Howicx commented on the necessity of not depriv ing the commissioners of the power they now possessed of checking the abuses in parishes governed by local acts. Sir B. HALL contended that there was no ambiguity in the clause, which left the powers of the commissioners precisely where they were. That, however, was what the great metro politan parishes were opposed to. The chiuse was postponed. On the fourth clause being moved, Mr. H. HINDE moved an amendment, the object of which was to limit the power of the commissioners to issue orders for the purpose of control ing the guardians. It was contended by Lord J. RUSSELL and Mr. WARD that it was necessary to give large powers to the commission ers, for it was impossible that parliament could legislate so as to meet all possible contingencies. General JOHNSON said that the law was most hateful and detestable that bad ever baen enacted in England, and he did hope, therefore, that the amendment would be persevered in, as it might form some protection for the poor. Lord G. SOMERSET said he had no doubt a vast portion of the unpopularity of the new poor law was to be attributed to the eternal scribbling of the commissioners, laying down in all their documents, the most arbitrary principles, and be traying in all their reports, a degree of presumption offensive to the feelings of the people. Lord J. itussELL defended the poor-law commissioners, and said that because the noble lord (Lord G. Somerset) usually stated his views clearly and very strongly, he would be as much justified in attributing arrogance to the noble lord as the noble lord was justified in attributing it to the commissioners. Lord SANDoN•said it was a degree of arrogance for the poor-law commissioners to set down every one opposed to them as wrong, and to seek to run down any individual who might be hardy enough to question their authority. The poor-law commissioners, in one of their reports, stated that their principal duty was to restrict expenditure, and to this duty they strictly adhered, for he believed not a single in stance could be adduced in which they bad ever called a board of guardians to account for niggardness, which he be lieved ought to be as much, or more, their duty than that of restriction. He belived they were amiable men, but they were the slaves of a theory, which led them to carry out the law in its most rigorous manner, and to sacrifice not only their own feelings, but the comforts of all those placed under their control. Sir H. VERNEY contended the country was deeply indebted to the poor-law commissioners. Mr. G. KNIGHT said he should like to see the power of the commissioners so far abridged as to prevent their inter ference except in cases of great necessity. Mr. WAKLEY again drew attention to the unwarrantable fact that in many unions medical men are not allowed to pre scribe stimulating diet, however necessary, until the assent of th e guardians shall have been obtained. He should on Monday, however, enter more fully into this subject. Lord Howroc read a paper from some persons connected with the Basford union, denying any interference such as had been attributed to the board of guardians with the me dical officer of that union. Mr. H AMILTON said the real question before the house was as to whether they would give arbitrary, and he might add, unheard of powers to the commissioners. Col. ROLLESTON stated that the medical officer of the Bar ford union had said on several occasions on oath, and once in the presence of the board of guardians, that an order was given that he should not order any stimulating diet without leave of the board. Mr. C. WOOD said this was a matter which should not be allowed to drop, for here was the most extraordinary con tradiction that could be conceived. Sir R. PEEL asked, even if this statement could not be proved, whether it could be considered safe for the interests of humanity to leave such power in the hands of the guar dians, uncontrolled by the commissioners. From all his knowledge of boards of guardians he should say that it would not be safe to do so. After some further discussion, the amendment was nega tived by a majority of 225 to 75, and the clause was agreed to, after which the chairman reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again on Monday. ouproarD multrallt !it 3rAvoon On Wedtiexilay morning a very extraordinary and paiolVi seniatiun was felt at Norwood in conscguance of the disco. cowry of the murder of a female, who it appears was a mar ried woman, in her 38th year, and of very creditable con nexions. The decased, whose name was Mary Ann Messenger, was the daughter of David Osborn, a foreman in the employ of Mr. Roupell, who has an extensive farm at Norwood, and resides at Tulse-hill Cottage, Brixton. She was married to a stonemason, about 20 years since, by whom she had a family, and her eldest daughter is married to a farming man named Smith, residing in the neighbourhood of Norwood. This is the daughter whose disappearance has been reported, and which is devoid of truth, as will appear by the sequel. About nine years since the deceased quarrelled with her hus band, in consequence, it is alleged, of her being detected in an act of adultery, and they then separated, and have not since lived together. Her husband, it is stated by the police, has since been united to another woman, who has borne him children, and with whom he is now residing in Church- street, Shoreditch. He is in the employ of Mr. Webb, of Goswell street, an extensive stonemason. The unfortunate woman on Tuesday left the town residence of Mr. Roupell for the purpose of toking home a little girl, a relative of her son-in-law, to Norwood ; and on her way thither, and throughout the day, her young charge, who had been staying on a visit for some days with the deceased, says that all the liquor which the deceased partook of was a glass of gin and a glass of ale ; and this statement is corroborated by the surgeon, who was called in soon after the body was discovered, and who expresses his unqualified belief that the deceased was not in liquor immediately previous to her death. In the course of Tuesday she changed a sovereign, and pur chased some tea and other trifling articles, which she pre sented to Mrs. Smith, her daughter, and, accompanied by the latter, she left Norwood to return to town. Mrs. Smith (and this is the most unaccountable part of the case) pro ceeded with her mother as far as the T e l egra ph pu bli c -h ouse , at Brixton, where the omnibuses take up passengers for town, and while she wa% hastily making the necessary inquiries as toithe next conveyance, the deceased suddenly disappeared, and was not again heard of alive. Mrs. Smith, however, re turned home soon after, being impressed with the idea that her mother had engaged some vehicle while she was in the Telegraph. Upon the following morning (Wednesday) as Shepherd, the watchman of the cemetery at Norwood, was leaving duty he met with a gardener name d U n d erwoo d, w h o , with his boy, had occasion to pass through the field where the deceased was discovered, and which lies to the left of the high road. Underwood told the watchman he had seen the body of a female, and he appeared to be much affected, and so timid that he was unwilling to approach it a second time, assuring Shepherd that she was dead. Shepherd leaped over the hedge, and found the deceased in such a position as he says leaves no doubt in his mind that a criminal assault had been committed upon her. Her clothes were up, and she merely once lifted up her right hand slightly, and then heaved two sighs and expired. At this time the unfortunate woman was being supported upon Underwood's knee, he having been prevailed upon to render assistance, and when she died he was so excited by the event that blood gushed from his nose, and he retched violently. The body was conveyed to the Horns Tavern at Norwood, and Mr. Laurie, a surgeon, was soon after in attendance, but medical skill was of no avail. He made a careful examina tion of the body, but the result will not be suffered to tran spire until the inquiry takes place by the coroner. The de ceased was dressed in a stuff gown, green bonnet, a figured dark shawl, and black stockings and low shoes. She had in her pocket 18s. 6d. in silver, and a snuff-box, and a needle case were found floating in a ditch near to where the body was found, and which is five feet in depth. It may be here remarked that a striking difference of opinion seems to exist as to whether the deceased had been in the water or not. Some persons assert that she must have been drowned, whilst others are equally positive that she was first violently treated and that she was afterwards removed to the spot where she was discovered, and which is very unfrequented. It is said that the deceased had two £5 Bank of England notes in her possession, which have not yet been traced, and that a man was seen lurking about Norwood-lane on Tues day night, who was subsequently seen with the deceased. The police were yesterday actively engaged in endeavouring to obtain some clue to the man, but nothing of a conclusive or satisfactory nature had transpired up to last night. The husband of the deceased states that he saw a man with her, who was a stranger to him, about a fortnight ago, but, al though he felt annoyed at it he did not speak to her, as he was fearful of being afterwards molested by them. He ex presses his extreme willingness to come forward, if required, at the coroner's inquest, and the reporter could not ascertain that there was any truth in the statement of a warrant having been issued for the apprehension of the husband of the de ceased. Inspector Bass, of the P division, and some con stables were yesterday afternoon engaged in measuring the ground where the body was found, and it appeared that her head lay about five feet from the margin of the ditch, and that the spot was 210 yards from the gap in the high road, and 150 yards from the by-road, and there is no footpath eading to the place. LANCASTER ASSIZES.—The judges opened the commis sion at Lancaster yesterday week. The following is the re sult of the most aggravated cases in the crown court : Richard Boothman, aged 20, James Wilkinson, 21, and Thomas Riley, 18, charged with the wilful murder of Joseph Halstead, at Colne ; Richard Boothman, death, James Wil kinson, 18 calendar months and hard labour, and Thomas Riley. 12 months and hard labour. William Starkie (on bail) 19, charged with killing and slaying Alfred Whalley, at Habergham Eaves, acquitted. SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND NARROW ESCAPE.—About a quarter past twelve o'clock on Monday night the whole of the interior of the front part of Messrs. Longley and Co.'s premises on the back of the Parade fell in with a heavy crash, which was heard not only in the immediate neighbour hood, but on some parts of Mount Ephraim. It appears that the interior of the premises were undergoing consider able alteration, the principal of which was the converting two shops into one. To accomplish thi s it was necessary to make an opening in the partition walls, leaving a stack of chimneys standing, and it is thought that these must have given way on the ground floor, and in falling they brought with them the chamber and attic floors. There were at the time seven persons in the house, six of whom were in bed. Three lads slept in the attics, two in one room and one in the other. The two fell completely through the floors into the shop, and the third, whose name was Hickmott, was precipitated into the shop, the floor turning over with him, and burying him under the rubbish, where he lay for upwards of three hours before he was extricated. He was very slightly bruised, but the other lads were not at all injured. Mr. Hunt, the shopman, was sitting up writing, and hearing a noise of falling bricks, and a sudden crash, gave an alarm to the female inmates, Miss Longley, an assistant, and a servant, who were fortunately rescued from their perilous situation through the care and intrepid conduct of police man Hollamby, who got them down by means of a ladder, a minute or two only before a portion of the floor on which they were standing fell with part of the staircase. Mr. Longley was in London at the time. The neighbours were soon on the spot and rendered every assistance. Consider ing the nature of the accident, the escape of the seven per sons may be looked upon as little short of miraculous. A subscription has been entered into to reward the policeman. —Maidstone Journal.

P. are very firm, the sales are only 200 bhds. For Bengal there is a very good inquiry, and being proportionately cheaper, the Grocers have taken 7500 bags, chiefly at 73s to 75s for good to fine white. Foreign.—The sales are confined to about 300 brls. and bags brown Brazil, at 18s 6d to 228 for low to good brown, and good and fine La Guayra at 26s 6d to 28s. Bonded Refined.— A fair demand continues for these descriptions. The only sale to notice in Molasses is 30 puns. Demerara, from the quay, at 2gs per cwt. Coffee.—There is only a moderate demand for Plantation, and the sales reported are quite unimportant ; no change in prices. In Foreign nothing done. 200 bags black Pepper sold at 3d to 4id per lb. Nothing done in Cocoa, Ginger or Pimento• Rice.—:4oo bags Bengal have been taken at 13s tid to 14s gd per cwt. Rum.— No sales have taken place in either Plantation or Foreign. Tea.—Tbroughout the week the •market has been quiet; but prices remain firm at our quotations. The demand for Indigo continues very limited. Of Shell Lac, 40 chests of blocky orange sold by auction at 43s gd to 468, 30 chests of ordinary Lac Dye at 6d, and about 25 tons of Culch at 15s to 15s 60 per cwt. 800 bags of Saltpetre have been disposed of at 24s to 25s for damaged, and 27s 6d to 30s, with some extra fine, in small parcels, at 31s, and 1000 bags Nitrate of Soda at 24s 6d to 25s per cwt.

No sales of Turpentine have been effected, 1500 brls. which were offered by auction having been sent into store, in consequence of the price offered being beiow the expectation of holders. A parcel of StockhOlm Tar, consisting of 860 brls., has been sold, but the price has not transpired. Montreal Pot Ashes are difficult of sale at present quotations ; but there has been rather more inquiry for the old imports. Pearl Ashes are neglected. The sales of American sowing Flaxseed during the present season have been mostly at 63s per hhd. A parcel of East India Linseed at auction brought 52s per quarter. Hides.—The market is steady, without alteration in prices. The public sales of last Friday comprise 860 dry salted Paraiba at Sid, 1370 Ceara at 4,3 d to sid, 380 wet salted at 41d, 1400 dry Valpaeaiso at 52d to 64d, 1000 East India Kips, rubbed at 3jd to 4id, 300 Buffalo at 4id per lb ; and 780 salted Monte Video Horse at I is each ; a few salted Ox and Cow have also been taken by private at 4d to 44(1 per lb. Tobacco.—The business of the week amounts to 180 hhds., of which about half were to the home.trade, the remainder being taken by Speculators and It ish Manufacturers. Prices remain firm, and the market quiet. The demand for Brimstone remains dull, and for the few sales made lower prices have been accepted it is now stated that the large stocks this.market are likely to be brought forward at reduced rates.—Of Sumac the sales have been limited; 200 bags Verona brought 6s 3d, and 100 bags of Tyrolese gs Gd per cwt.—Only a few small sales are reported in Argols.—Cream of Tartar is steady and prices supported.—Madders and Roots are dull, and no sales re ported.-20 hhds Ist Philadelphia Bark reported at 13s per cwt.— The business done in Olive Oil has again been limited; no change in prices can be noticed.—ln Fish Oils there are no transactions whatever to report —Pale Rape is steady at 50s for prime quality.— Linseed Oil is in fair demand at 3i s ; early in the week some trans actions took place at 30s, but the price has since recovered, and there are no very anxious sellers.—The sales of Palm Oil amount to 140 tons, at -t'34 to 4'34 5s per ton, which is rather lower.—Oil of Turpentine is dull of sale, and hardly maintains the advance noticed last week.—ln Hemp and Flax there is still little doing; 50 bales Sunn Hemp brought £l9 per ton.—The improved accounts of Tallow this week, from London, have not been followed by any real advance in this market; although some holders have required rather higher rates, the business in yellow Candle has been confined to small sales at 46s 6d to 475 per cwt. In South American Tallow no transactions have taken place, but about 400 casks are advertised for public sale to-morrow. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 26. We have had a fair demand for Cotton to day, and full 3000 bales have been sold at prices a little higher than was paid early in the week, and much on a par with our quota tions of Friday last. The sales of the week are 15,650 bales, of which we place to speculation account 3380 American do. and 180 for export. The market closes steadily. COTTON MARKET, MARCH The demand for Cotton has been limited thrOughout the week, but, as holders have been firm, scarcely any alteration in price has occurred. The accounts received by the Patrick Henry, which arrived on the 24th instant from New York, being deemed generally more pacific, have given rise to the hope that the forthcoming sea son will be more favourable to the manufacturing districts than was anticipated, and prices are. in consequence more steady, except Brazil and East India, which are a shade lower. Speculators have taken 3,380 American, and exporters 140 American. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, • From the 13th to the 19th instant, inclusive.

Spinners generally are loud in their complaints of the badness of trade, and merely supply their immediate neces sities, looking forward to pacific intelligence from America, to stimulate the market for goods and yarns. We have had from 3000 to 3500 bales sold to-day, at last week's prices ; a few hundreds on speculation. On Saturday the market was 'quiet, and only 2000 bales were sold. We close with what we call a " firm market." LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, M Ancn 27 Since this day se'nnight there have arrived to this port upwards of 11,400 barrels of Flour, from the United States, and 1,670 qrs. of Egytian Beans, from the Mediterranean, all of which will, for the present, go under the Queen's locks. The imports of British Grain, &c. have been moderate. During the same period the trade, tho f csv LVho..l- al,nct 0 011- fined to the town's millers, who have still bought cautiously ; holders, on the other hand, have not pressed sales, and :prices for that Grain remain as last quoted. Scarcity continues to keep up the value of Oats to 3s .4d to 3s 5d per 451bs for the best Irish mealing. Both Flour and Oatmeal have suffered a little decline : the former being 6d to Is per barrel for free foreign, Is per sack for home manufacture, and Oatmeal 3d per load cheaper than at the close of last week. No change as regards Barley, Beans, or Peas. Nor have any transaction of moment occurred in the bonded market: United States Flour may be bought at 24s per barrel. LIVERPOOL PRICES CURRENT.
