MIDDLESEX COUNTY COURT Tue BATTLE or THE Booxs.—Julius Thomas Bentley, a tall, thin young gentleman, attired after the approved fashion of Sir Edward Lytton Bulwer, and whose abundant crop of hair, overshadowing a pale hatchet-shaped face, rendered it almost impossible to decide accurately upon the reality of his gender, appeared to sustain a summons against John Joseph Warburton. Both of the litigants, in dress and manner, formed so complete a counterpart of each other; that the two .1), mica, or the two Sociog, were thrown altogether into the shade. It appeared that they were both distinguished mem bers of a literary society—they had read, spelt, and whistled together ; they had interchanged their books, and ditto their sentiments thereupon; in short, as the author of Christabel sung— " They had been friends in youth, But whispering tongues can poison truth." The jealously of the literary character is as proverbial as its irritability ; a quarrel ensued upon the subject of their studies. Julius Thomas Bentley was a very passionate ad mirer of the deep (!) and searching (!) philosophy of the dandy baronet who immortalised the ruffian Paul Clifford, and the cut-throat Eugene Aram. While upon the other hand John Joseph Warburton, who prided himself on being a descendant of the polemical dignitary of that name, held Sir Edward and all his works in the most ineffable contempt, and, in the true spirit of his annotating ancestor, he had pretty freely expressed his opinions by sundry marginal notes, scribbled upon a number of volumes that had been lent to him by the said Julius Thomas Bentley. This was the head and front of his offending, and for which he was doomed, like the author of the " Divine Legation," to get considerably roasted and annoyed. The first intimation John Joseph Warburton received of the implacable anger of Mr. Julius Bentley was through the medium of the following note : Mr. Julius Thomas Bentley requests Mr. John Joseph Warburton to make good the books he's spoiled a scribbling over them, as follows : X. s. d. " For spoiling Hutne's Essays .... 0 8 0 For damaging Lytton Bulwer For spoiling the Penny Magazine For spoiling Wordsworth's Poems For spoiling a book 1 don't mention 0 6 6 £1 18 0 " P.S. The sooner I hear from you the better." To the above alarming demand, Mr. John Joseph War burton replied like a man of spirit and a scholar:— " Sir,-1 beg of you not to trouble me any more about books you never can comprehend, and regarding money which you will never get. If 1 have placed any notes upon your margins, it has been with a view to enlighten your own thick head, and I consider you ought to feel indebted to me. —Yours, Ike. " J. J. WARBURTON." This quaint note was the means of introducing the learned annotator to the court, a summons having been issued by the enraged Julius Thomas Bentley. On their names being called their eyes flashed vengeance upon each other. Julius Thomas stepped exactly into the place that the rules of the court awarded to John Joseph. " If I thought you meant to insult me," said John Joseph— " You think," said Julius Thomas, with a look of supreme contempt, " Sir, a thinking animal is a"— . . "Don't talk to me, sir,' r said John Joseph. Julius Thomas—Sir, I tell you, that neither Locke, nor Berkeley, nor Reid— .. Commissioner.—Now, gentlemen, suppose I think a little for you. (Laughter.) I see you claim £1 IBs., Mr. Julius Thomas Bentley, how do you make it out ? Mr. Julius Thomas Bentley.—I couldn't bring all the books, sir, but look at this copy of Lytton Bulwavgh's— that profound philosopher —see, sir, what John Joseph has scribbled. (The book was handed up.) Mr. John Joseph Warburton—Yes, sir, at a very certain stupid passage, I wrote "My beautiful my own,' , as Sir Edward Lytton says, in his recently forgotten play of the Sea Captain, making the said Sea Captain apostrophise the sea. (Laughter.) The learned Commissioner.—Well, well ; do, gentlemen, come to the point. Plaintiff.—l contend that no one has any right to spoil my books. Defendant.—No, sir, certainly not, with the proviso that you understand them. If you did, ~ i hy then I—(laughter.) The Commissioner.—Gentlemen this is a matter that can not be allowed. I recommend you both to " Coke upon Lyttelton," to " Arthunbot's Art of Selling a Bargain," or, in reference to your own upper stories, to " Arthunbot's Dissertation upon Dumpling." The case is too trifling to trouble a jury with : it is therefore dismissed. Julius Thomas Bentley.—Then, sir, I demand satisfaction. " So do I," said John Joseph Warburton. Then you had better take it, said a bye-stander of the Sam Weller creation. The parties, however, walked quietly out of court. EXTRAORDINARY CANDIDATE FOR AN M.P. Among the advertisemegts in the Ayr Advertiser is an electioneering address, " To the Free and Independent Elec tors of the County of Ayr," (presently represented by Vis count Kelburne,) signed " John Parker, Laird of A ss l oss and Sliddery Braes. ' The composition of this document is certainly unique. Mr. Parker, having avowed his ambition to represent his native county, and being assured, from the signs of the times, that we must soon have a dissolution of parliament, proceeds to state his religious and political creed. " I am warmly," he says, " nay, enthusiastically attached to the church of my forefathers—the glorious kirk of Scot land—that church of many martyrs, and will spend the last shilling I have in her defence against all the powers of hell, backed by the pious majority of the Court of Session." This is at least explicit. In consistency with his religious opinions, the Laird of Assloss and Sliddery Braes thus can didly avows his political sentiments : "In politics f am an out-and-out double-distilled radical, but take care—no chartist or socialist, the deluded followers of the unhappy Owen, formerly of Lanark Mills, a man who should have been in a lunatic asylum years ago. My models of eloquence—the great apostle of the Gentiles—magnani mous Paul, Demosthenes, and the first Earl a Chatham." On the subject of character the laird is as plain-spoken as on politics. Now as to private character, which in an M.P. should be good, I refer you to every man, woman, (I had almost said child,) in Kilmarnock. My constitution, thanks to grace, is excellent, and was well tried in my younger years. My models of cri m i na l an d c i v il j ur i spru d ence are Sir M. Hale, Lords Talbot, Denman, Glenlee, Moncrieff. Jeffrey, Cunningham, and Fullarton. My books of consultation are the ever-blessed Word of God,' all the puritanical divines, Chalmers, Gordon, Buchanan, &c. lam fond of agricul ture, but not very practical, being but seldom at home." The laird continues this strain of free and easy communi cation, and in openness and candour is certainly superior to most of thenon-intrusionists. " I am ashamed to say I am still unmarried, but, under God's grace, intend to play Benedick soon; but as there are two to that bargain, pardon me for not saying more at pre sent. If lam spared till next week, I shall (D. V.) have great pleasure in paying you all, if in my power, my personal respects, if I can get horses to keep up with my enthusiasm. Now, God bless the Queen and Prince Albert, and turn their hearts unto himself. Old Melbourne—not a bad fel low on the whole—worthy excellent Fox Maule ; and great success to " JOHN PARKER, " Laird of Assloss and Slidcfery Braes " King's Arms Inn, Ayr, Aug. 27, 1540." PENANCES TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING HERALD. SlR.,—The existence of certain penances described by the Rev. H. Stowell, as enforced by the Romish priests, having been denied, I beg to send, for the perusal of your readers, a translation of an announcement which I find in the Memo rial de la Scarpe, published at Douai : " 25,000 FRANCS REWARD " A pious person, who has made a vow to visit the Holy Land, and whose health prevents him from fulfilling his vow personally, offers a sum of 25,000 francs to any one mho will undertake the journey from purely religious feelings. The candidate must be under 40 years of age, and of a robust constitution, in order that no doubt may exist of his accom plishing the pilgrimage. He will have to walk bare-footed, and to enter no hotel, tavern, or public-house, for refresh ment ; but during the journey must depend for subsistence on the alms of the charitable. He must proceed through Lyons, Chambery, cross the Alps, and thus to Rome, where he will perform some religious exercises and devotions, pass ing from thence to Romagna and Ancona, he will then go to Calabria ' where he will emb ar k . f or J o pp a , a n d so to Jeru salem. Letters to be addressed X, office of the Memorial de la Scarpe, at Douai." I cannot believe that the editor of the Memorial de la Scarpe has published this article merely for the sake of mak ing its readers merry, since I find in a work published by Professor Yentas, at Heidelberg, an anecdote which bears upon the point, and which deserves to be made known : " Counsellor Voss, when visiting one day a convent of Capuchins, situated on the top of a mountain near Asehaf fenbourg, saw a poor woman who was crawling bare-kneed down the rough steps cut in the rock, and was apparently speaking to herself in a low voice. ' What are you doing there my good woman ?' said Mr. Voss. Alas! sir,' she replied, I am repeating prayers to the good God for a lady at Millemberg, who has committed some great sin ; she is unable to expiate it but by the devout exercises which are enjoined her; nevertheless, as she is very rEch, she has no need to perform her own penances, and she requires me to descend this high mountain on my knees, and to repeat a prayer at each step, so that her soul may not go to purga tory. She only gives me six batz a day. See, my good sir, h ow my knees are bruised. Though I begin before the break of day, I cannot finish until night-fall, and when 1 return homewards, at a late hour, 1 have only six batz with which to provide food for my three little child ,en. Good sir, give something to a poor unfortunate woman. Surely with these notions of religion, it would be strange if the lady of Nlilleinberg should have refused herself a few little sins which she could atone for by the expenditure of six batz per diem. A few florins at this rate would have sufficed to have rendered her at once one of the holiest of women amongst all the sinners in Europe. And such are the doctrines incul cated by the Ronaish priesthood. T. B. STATE OF TRADE ROCHDALE, SEPT. 7.—We have had another brisk mar ket to-day, and fl an nels have met with a ready sale at former prices ; the wool market has also been good, but no change in the prices. HUDDERSFIELD, SEPr. B.—This was quite Ti good a mar ket day as any for some weeks past, especially in stout wool lens, plain and fancy, which were bought up freely. In fact, It seldom happens that the stock of saleable goods is so low in quantity. They are purchased as they arrive ; and the de mand is greater than the supply. Nevertheless, prices are very low. In superfines there is not so much doing in the hall ; but in the warehouses the demand is better for the finer sorts, and prices are rather on the advance. In super fine fancy goods, there is not quite so much doing; but, on the whole, there is cause of congratulation for the improve ment. VALVE or A MAN'S THUMB. Charles Butterworth ap peared on Monday. before the Rochdale magistrates, to an swer the complaint of John Leech, for having bitten the end of his thumb off. The complainant was a short, ahar stout shoe -bvairs,a andged be.maker ; the defendant, a low square -set , fel low, dressed as a mechanic. Both stood at the bar, Woro , a i t i l e ; and a tall, , ti a t he i cause twixt them appeared a decent-looking young, red-cheeked girl, who had, it seemed of the wolfish bite complained of. She was at bal l, on Thursday night, at which the complainant was also . es and he rendered her merely some common civilitie P s r .' e r n h t ' e defendant, whose company she kept, had observed th ese; and, on her departure home in company of the complaina n t, the defend an t wa t c h e d an opportunity, and put complaina n t' s thumb into his mouth, and snapped the end off. They were woradseareddjudged to to settle the affair, but could not, and the defendant pay 20s and the costs. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE DONCASTER RACES, 1840, There is not a sporting event in the whole year, or for .many years antecedent to the present, which has caused in the sporting world so great a sensation as the approaching far-famed Doncaster Races,—more particularly on account of the Great St. Leger, which, in all parts of the globe where the finest breed of horses is known and admired, never fails to send forth its speculators to witness the momentous re sult appertaining to the three-year-olds ; and it now may be questioned whether at any former period the interest was so great as at the present time, in consequence of the high pa tronage which royalty has bestowed upon the principal races in the country—Ascot and Epsom having been witnessed by the Queen and Prince Albert, in addition to the plendid cor tege of a great portion of the Court from Windsor. The number of visiters at Goodwood was also extremely nume rous and fashionable ; and even that at Newcastle-upon- Tyne surpassed all former occasions, the number by railway alone amounting to 95,000 ! The York August Meeting also greatly increased its attendance by similar means. Such having been the fact elsewhere, Doncaster cannot fail to augment its numbers in consequence of the opening of the North Midland Railway throughout the whole line, some branches of which are contiguous to this renowned meeting. The great emporium will pour out its immense speculators and admirers, as will also the towns by which the North Midland is fed—Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Coventry, Leicester, Derby, Nottingham, Chesterfield, Rotherham, Sheffield, Barnsley, Wakefield, Leeds, York, &c., besides all the large towns of Lancashire (Liverpool and Manchester in particular), as well as the northern parts of the kingdom. It may. therefore, be confidently anticipated, that this will be the most splendid meeting ever known in Doncaster. Various improvements have, we hear, been made ; such as the formation of a betting-ring, on the same plan as at Ain tree and other places, which will leave the ladies full scope for a promenade in the Long Room, unmolested by that noise and confusion which has hitherto prevailed. The greatest interest also prevails, not only as to the result of the St. Leger, but likewise respecting the Champagne, the Two-year-olds, and the Cup, the latter of which is the most splendid prize ever witnessed, being a richly-chased vase, in the style of Louis XIV., on a triangular base, on the corners of which are placed three spirited horses and men, in the at titude of the celebrated horses at Monte Cavallo. That no ble animal, Rockingham, (the winner of the St. Leger in 1838,) the property of Mr. Theobald, of Stockwell, was the model of the horses, which the artist has copied with great fidelity and success. On the body of the base are Bachana lian and sporting devices allusive to its purposes. The prize is the weight of 420 ounces, and of the value of 350 guineas, and it is rendered intrinsically valuable by the good taste and great care with which its production has been directed by the stewards, the Earl of Scarborough dnd Lord Kelburne ; the design; we are.informed, was furnished by the first-named noblemen, and the workmanship, which is beautiful beyond description, accomplished by Messrs Storr and Mortimer, of London. This prize will bring all the best horses of the day into competition. _ _ _ Launcelot still continues the top sawyer for the St. Leger, and his friends are numerous—many from the sole considera tion that he is in Scotts' stables, a species of infatuation that may lead to consequinces the reverse of pleasant. Many doubts exist as to the appearance of Crucifix at Doncaster, but all these will be cleared up in a day or two; and should the mare come in her proper form, seeing that she has proved herself the very best racer of her year, and considering at the same time that she carries 5 1 bs less than her more formidable competitors, her extraordinary speed and resolution will en able her to add to her other great victories by carrying off the St. Leger of 1840. Time, however, and our next Friday's publication, will prove the result. MANCHESTER, TUESDAY EVENING On this day week, Mr. Lockwood, according to custom, will decide the greatest. northern race run during the year; but we fear the event will not excite the usual degree of in terest. The horses, in any demand, will be found from the following quotations to be extraordinarily few. Nothing, it appears, is to have a chance but the pride of Scott's staple, and the Newmarket horse (bred by Mr. Nowell), Gibraltar. At a very full meeting of both town and country speculators this morning, GO to 40 was offered on the two; 7 to 4 nearly at the close of business would have been accepted. The " copious odds" of 50 to 1 to win some hundreds, were laid v. Mr. Robinson's St. Andrew • Maroon was backed at our figure. We did not hear the C hampagne Stakes mentioned. A feature in the proceedings was "calling over," preparatory to the influential speculators leaving tor Doncaster. The prices will, no doubt, vary every day ; within the past hour we have seen 6 fifties to 4 offered on the field, and 6 score to 1 " bar one." THE ST.

Bee's Wing and Bloomsbury in great force. TATTERSAL L'S, MONDAY. The most important feature in the betting was the retro gression of Crucifix, against whom 1,000 to 50, 15 to 1 to the same sum, two or three twenties to one to small amounts, and, finally, 25 to 1 were laid ; this may be considered as amounting to the coup de grace, yet there are still some who think that she is likely to go. Launcelot is not so good a favourite as when we last qu oted the odds from Warwick; 6 to 4 was " laid and taken , " but the layers predominated at the close. Gibraltar was in force at 7 to 2, taken eagerly, and in one or two quarters a point less. Maroon rose to 17 to 1 with backers; 25 to 1 each taken about Dr. Caius and Calypso (the latter at one moment at 20 to 1), and 30 to 1 each about Theon and Trustee ; and these are all that can be named as actually in the betting.

TilE DERBY, 1841. 2000 to 55 against Lord Bruce's Rosalie colt.—t HER MAJESTY (From a Correspondent of the Dublin Monitor.) It will no doubt be interesting to your readers to read, as it was to me to hear, the routine of her Majesty's daily occu pations whilst she is in London. They are metals metandis, the same when she is at Windsor or at Brighton. The Queen is, as is generally known, an early riser, seldom bei ng in bed later than half-past seven, except on the mornings after her state balls, or on terse few occasions when she honours the parties of the nobility with her presence. Her bell is rung about eight o'clock for her " dressers," and by nine her Majesty, her royal consort, and the household are at breakfast. The time occupied at this meal is about half an hour, when her Majesty, if the weather permits, enjoys the air in the pleasure garden attached to Buckingham Palace ; this garden covers a space of about forty acres. Here the Queen frequently remains an hour, and is accompanied by some of the household, or by the prince. When she is ac companied by the latter, etiquette prescribes that, except by invitation, the ladies and gentlemen in attendance should walk at a " respectable distance." Upon her Majesty's re turn to the palace she is attended by her secretary, when she affixes her signature to the various documents which acquire their validity by it. These comprise treasury and other war rants, the commissions of military officers, state papers, &c.; and they are frequently so numerous that it has before now required more than two hours to get through this busi ness. The Queen passes the time between one and three, either in conversation, reading, painting, or music. In these two accomplishments her Majesty is eminently pro ficient ; her drawings are much admired, and her love for music is well known ; she is excellent both as an in strumental and vocal performer. There are three grand piano -fortes in the suit of three drawing-rooms usually in habited, but that which is especially her Majesty's, and which is only touched by her fingers, is magnificent ; it is rosewood, inlaid with gold and vignette pictures, and cost 1500 guineas. Luncheon is served at three, after which the Queen receives the cabinet ministers, and such other persons whom it i s usual to honour with audiences. At five the royal cortege leaves the palace, and proceeds through the parks, &c. and generally returns about seven or a quarter after. Dinner is generally served at a quarter before eight, except on opera nights, when it is a little earlier. The usual number of per sons who dine at the royal table is about thirty. The Queen never fails to be present, except upon the nights of a ball, either at the palace or elsewhere. On those occasions her Majesty dines in her own suite of apartments. The Queen, who occupies the centre seat of the dinner table, remains from an hour and five minutes to an hour and a quarter. Her rising is a signal for the ladies to move after her, and in a very short time subsequent to this move the gentlemen follow. During dinner time the band of one of the regiments of Guards generally attends. The musicians are placed in a situation above the ceiling of the apartment. They are separated from the royal party by large panes of ground glass, which mellow the sound, and prevent the musicians seeing into the apartment. Tea and coffee are served immediately after dinner, in a small room leading from one of the draw - ing-rooms. The remainder of the evening is passed 'with music and conversation, in both of which the Queen and Prince Albert take a part; and about half-past eleven her Majesty retires to her apartments, which are in the immedi ate vicinity of the drawing-rooms, and with which there is a communication by means of a door that is ordinarily con cealed by a cabinet. This cabinet is on rollers; and it is, when, her Majesty expresses a desire to retire, immediately rolled sufficiently far away to enable the door to be opened, and is replaced again as soon as she has quitted the apart ment. NORTH WEST COAST OF NEW HOLLAND, (From the HobrtTown Atiser.) A South Australian pape r , To in noticing e t r he discoveries on the north-west coast of New Holland, by her majesty's ship Beagle, says : " But the most interesting intelligence of all is the dis covery on the north-west coast of New Holland of three im mense rivers, stretching so fur into the interior as to ad mit of reaching by their channel almost the centre of this vast continent. We have been kindly favoured by R. F. Newland, Esq., manager of the Australasian Bank, with the following extract from a letter addressed to him by Lieut. Stokes, the surveying officer on board the Beagle, which, though brief, conveys the fact with sufficient distinctness. It is now time that the lake discovered in the north-west by Mr. Eyre were fully explored." " Her majesty's ship Beagle, " Swan River, Feb. 24, 1840.

Th e colo nisation of this immense continent is of far more importrnee than the New Zealand mania, and might be conducted on much less objec ionable terms. The County Registration Courts have finished their sittings ; but the general result is yet doubtful, as we under stand there are from 60 to 70 appeals taken on both sides. It is, however, understood that the advantage is in favour of the conservative party.—Caledonian Mercury. STATRTICIS Or IWAIMIAGRor-HINTO LADIES. FOR THR (From the Scotsman.) We published, some years ago, a table of the probabilities of marriage at the different periods of life, in the case of fe males, for which, we have no doubt, that the ladies of Bri tain feel grateful. It was founded, however, on limited data. which were derived entirely from records of marriages among the working classes. The table published in our leading ar ticle of Saturday supplies materials for more accurate con clusions, grounded on returns which comprehend all classes ; and we think we shall confer a favour on our female readers by putting the results into a more distinct form than the table in its original shape affords. If we take 100 to represent the whole of a woman's chances of marriage between the ages of 15 and 70, the proportional chances in each period of five years will be as follow : • Age.

That one-seventh part of all the females who marry in England are married between the ages of 15 and 20, or one seventh part of a woman's chances of marriage lies between those years. 2. 'that fully one-half of all the women who marry are married between 20 and 25, or one-half of a woman's chances are comprised within these five years. 3. That between 15 and 25 precisely two-thirds of a wo man's chances of marriage are exhausted, and only one-third remain for the rest of her life up to 70. 4. That at 30 no less than 85 chances out of 100 are gone, and 15, or about one-seventh, only remain. She has strong reason now for improving her time. 5. At 35, a fraction, a tenth, is all that remains to her — which is reduced to a twentieth at 40. 6. At 45, her chances of marriage have sunk to one-for tieth ; and at 50, to one-hundredth. At 60 there is still a glimmering of hope, for it appears that among females about one marriage in every 1000 takes place at and beyond this The number of women married between 15 and 20 is six times greater than the number of men. The number of men and women married between 20 and 25 is very nearly equal, but the number of men married at all higher ages is greater than the number of women. THE SOURCE OF :THE THAMES. -- Withill two miles of Cirencester is the source of the Thames—a clear fountain in a little rocky dell, known by the name of Thames-head. This is the little infantine stream, so great a giant when it arrives at its full growth. The little dell whence issues the gentle stream is in hot seasons perfectly dry, but the drought that stops the supply at the fountain-head has but slight effect on the course of the stream. It has so many different feeders from various parts of the country, that at Lechlade and Cricklade it runs on its usual course uninfluenced by the scarcity at the head. There is an amusing story told of a simple cockney, who, on his way from Bristol to London, turned aside to visit the source of the river he was so proud of. It was warm summer; there had been no rain for three weeks, and the spring was dried up. " Good God !" said he, with an expression of the utmost alarm and sorrow, " what ruin this must cause at London ! Whatever will the poor people do for water ?" and his busy fancy conjured up a dire ful picture of a thousand ills consequent upon the stoppage of the stream : no more ships arriving at London laden with the wealth of the world, the bankruptcy of rich merchants. the shutting up of 'Change, the failure of the Bank of Eng land, the anguish of ruined families, and the death of thou sands in the agonies of thirst. The Germans tell a similar story of a traveller who visited the springs of the Danube, and which, as we are upon the subject, may serve as a pen dent to the tale of our cockney. The traveller in this case was a Suabian, and whenever the Germans wish to palm off a joke a Suabian is sure to be the butt. On noticing in what a small stream the water trickled at the source of that great river (the Danube), he formed the bold resolution of stoppin g it up. 'He put his hand across it, and, as he fancied the vs_ rious cities upon its course deprived of their supply of water by this deed, he exclaimed, in the pride of his heart, "Wha t will they say at Vienna?"—The Thames and its Tributaries. AINDERBY STEEPLE.—A FRUGAL WlFE.—Last week died, at Ainderby Steeple, near Northallerton, the wife of a shoemaker, whose name is Thomas White, and after all hopes of recovery had fled, she imparted to her husband the pleas ing information that she had, unknown to him, during their happy union, hoarded a little cash by way of making up a privy purse for herself, and that he might find it in certain holes and corners of their domicile. On search being made, much to the surprise and joy of White, upwards of £7l were found concealed in the places which his faithful wife had pointed out to him.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, SEPTEMBHR 9 We have been very quiet in sugars since our last report, but in prices there is no alteration of moment to notice. Two vcnisels from the West Indies have arrived here during the week. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPT. 10. There has been hut a moderate business in Cotton to-day, tilt. sales are 300 bags, the market steady. SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 9 The shew of beasts to-day, was good, and of sheep excellent. Prime beef in demand, and sold at last currency ; but the hest mutton was rather lower. Lambs were in poor shew, and realized fully last week's rates. The market, on the whole. was a brisk one, and nearly all sold. Best beef, 6d to 61d ; middling, 5d to sid. Prime mutton, 64d to Bid; ewes and•inferior, Sd to sod, and lamb 6id to 7d. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, SEPT. 10 e do not alter our quotations for Butter,—much steadiness is however evinced on the part of holders, a belief being general that prices will still rule higher. Pickled Butter is now held at 94s to 965, but the sudden advance in price is not readily complied with. Nothing doinglin Beef and Pork. As soon as the new Corn makes it appearance abundantly, we think there will be more pliability displayed by importers. Bacon continues in good demand and fully supported. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, SEPT. 8 Since Tuesday last the imports of Wheat and Flour from foreign ports have been to a fair extent, but from Ireland and Coastways very moderate, and although may showers have fallen during the past week, which must have impeded the farmers iu securing their grain in proper condition, the temperature has been colder, with some wind, so that reaping has continued daily, and upon the whole the weather has not been very unfavourable. The stocks of the millers and dealers having been pretty well reduced, they have been more free purchasers in the latter part of the past week, awl considering the large quantity of foreign Wheat and Flour now free, the decline has been less than expected, about 3d to 4d per 70Ib, and about 1 s per barrel ; Oats have also declined I d to ad per £45, and Oatmeal 2s to as per 2401 b ; in other articles not much alteration; the quantity of new Wheat and Oats which has yet appeared, either from our own farmers or from Ireland, is so trifling, that no opinion can be formed decidedly either as to quantity or future prices ; new English Wheat 9s to 9s 6d per 701 b, new Oats as 10d to 4s per 451 b, new Oatmeal 56s to 3ss per 2401 b. Our anticipations as to the averages were fully realised on Friday last, by a reduction in the duties on V% heat from foreign ports to 2s 8d per quarter, and on Flour to I s lid per barrel, at which it is estimated that about 850,000 quarters of Wheat, and about 170,!,00 barrels of Flour, now in, bond, or on board ships in ports in the United Kingdom, will be released for home use; of which about 140,000 quarters of the former, and about 150,000 barrels of the latter are in this port; the consequences of such a quantity let loose by the operations of the Corn-laws all at one time nu the home markets, in the face of harvest, it is not easy to foresee ! The duty is likewise reduced is 6d per quarter on oats and on Rye —on other Grain no alteration. Notwithstanding the circumstances above alluded to, the dul ness and decline in 111,rket lane yesterday, with a continuance of very fine weather during the last few days, we have experienced at this day's market a more active demand for Flour, and con. siderable sales were made at fully the prices of Friday last, and which in some - instances were a little exceeded; tor all other articles in the trade, sales were but very languid at about the de cline above mentioned.
