SMITHFIELD HAY MARKET.-THIS DAY.

Mr. E. J. Davis reports the trade at the following quo-
tations : Prime Meadow hay, 725. to 763. ; interior, Ws.
to 68m. ; Rowen, 45a. to 555.; Clover, 5d.. to Uiz. ; se-
cond cut; 60e. to Ws. ; Straw, 2.51. to 2S t.

TALLOW MARKET.—THIS DAY.
The market is quiet on the spot, and firm fur forward
delivery. Town Tallow is very scarce, and worth 425. Cd.
nett cash; Petersburg Y.C. on the spot is quoted 435.;
October to December, 425. Od. to 9d. ; January to Match,
(18.53), 435. to 43e. 6d.

THE. CRYPT OP ST. PAUL'S.—WO have reached the
spot shown, and see in long perspective the glimmering
sunbeam. We are now under the south aisle of the church
—the monument on the right, of white marble, on which
is represented a female seated at the organ, is to the me-
mory of the daughter of Sir Christopher Wren, who, be-
sides being a goeisl musician, has the credit of having de-
signed several of the City churches. On the left, the fa-
mous architect lies buried—next him his sun ; and a now
white marble tablet is in memory of the great grand-
daughter of Wren, who died at the ago of t) (Sir Christo-
pher was 91, and his son UT at the time of their deaths).
On opening the Wren tomb, to receive the body of the
above-mehtioned lady, the last of the race, the coffin of the
architect was distinctly eisiblein good preservation. Close to
the Wren monuments, under an unlettered stab, li. s J.
M. W. Turner, the greatest landscape painter of this
or any other cnintry. Close by are Sir Joshua Reynolds,
Lawrence, Opic, Barry, Mylne, Fussell, and a few others
who have been equally dietinguished in their walks with
the warriors who are gathered in another part of the crypt.
The sunlight gleams amongst their graves. Front tho
minds which dwell in the dust here gathered what splendid
fancies and buons have been embodied and phased amongst
the multitude. Few could be left on this spot, where the
roaring of the traffic ot.taide exactly resembles the distant
sound of the sea in times of storm, and not be impregaed
with a host of assoeLtions. The men themselves Übe up
like a reality to the mind's eye. Their glorious works seem
in the darkness to form an exhibition; and the companions
of the men, Johnson, Newton, and a score of others, fill up
the picture. It is greatly to be hoped that no other body
may be interred within the cathedral. So long as burial
within churches be made a mark of honour, so long will the
1 injurious and improper practice be generally persevered in.
It was thus, indeed, that it arose.—The litu!!_kr,

FORECLOSURE HIV TILE COURT OF CILt—NCERT.—.
A very salutary provision is introduced into one of the new
Chancery acts (in force this day), by which the 12)/EtliC of
foreclosing mortgaged property may be avoided, and a sale
directed by a claim instead of a bill in Chancery. It is
enacted by the 48th section of the 15 & 16 Viet., cap. 86,
that it shall bo lawful for the court, in any suit for the fore-
closure of the equity of redemption in any mortgaged pro-
perty, upon the request of the mortgagee or any subsequent
incumbrancer, or of the mortgagor, or any persons claiming
under them respeenvely, to direct a sale of such property
instead of a fireclosure of such equity of redemption, on
such terms as the court may think fit to direct, and if tho
court shall so think fit, previously determining the priori-
ties of incumbraneers, or giving the usual or any time to re-
deem, provided that if such request shall be made by any
such incumbrancers, or by the mortgagor, or by any person
claiming under them respectively, the court shall not direct
any such sale without the consent of the mortgagee or tho
persons claiming under him, unless the party making such
request shall deposit in court a reasonable sum of money, to
h46zed by the court, fur the purpose of securing the per-
formance of such terms u the court may think fit to intone
on the party making such request.
TIIE NEW LEGAL YEAR.—Term begins on Tues-
day, and with it all the interest that will result front the
first trial of the new procedures, both in law and equity.
The common law courts commence the legal year with the
smallest list of arrears ever known. Altogether there are
bat forty-seven, distributed thus: In the Q. 11., 24; in the
C.P., 6; in the Ea., 17. Of those in the Q.B. 16 are espe-
cial cases and demurrers, 4 are new trials, and 4 appeals
from the county courts. In the C.P. there is one demurrer,
2 are enlarged rules, and 3 are new trials ; and in the Ba.
the special paper has 5, the peremptory paper 3, and the
new trial paper 29, including one that stands for judgment.
Of course the beginning of the term will produce some mo-
tions for new trials growing out of the last wires, but be-
yond these there is no prospect of business to occupy half
the term.—Law Times.

THE NEW CILLNICERY ACTS.—To-day (Tuesday)
the new Chancery Acta come into force, u also tho new
rules and orders made under the same. Under the blasters
in Chancery Abolition Act, Masters Brougham and Fairer,
the two senior Masters, will retire on their full salaries,
I and ether Masters will follow their examples. The other
act in force this day is to amend the practice and course of
proceedings in the court, by virtue of which printed bills,
Ike., will be filed. The other act for the relief of suitors in
the court, abolishing fees, &c., came into operation a few
days ago.
LAW APPOINTMENTS IN INDIA.—We announced&
short time since that the chief-justiceship of Bombay, va-
cant by the retirement of Sir Thomas Erskine Perry, had
been filled up by the promotion of Sir William Yardley,
late puisne judge at that presidency. We bare now to
announce that the seat of the latter ea the bench is to
be bestowed upon Mr. C. It. Jackson, the present Advo-
cate-General of the Eut India Company at Calcutta.—

THE AUSTRALIAN ABORIGINES.—BV the last ac-
counts from Australia the kborigincs had become trouble.
some to the settlers in the interior in consequence of the
number of men who had gone to the gold diggings and lett
their wives and families in an unprotected state. The
latter were falling beck on the towns and villages for
security.
ltoTat., COLLEGE OE SURGEONS.—Tho following
gentlemen wee, admitted members of the college on the
29th inst. —Messrs. George Davenport Treeman, Bath;
John Armstrong, Manchester; George Russell, Clifton,
Bristol; Samuel Thorpe, Manchester; Heaton Lloyd Wil-
liams, Denbigh, North Wales; Wm. Body Mushet, Ha-

TUE. GREAT MINISTERAL SECRET.—We (Nuttiny.
ham Journal) do not profess to be in the secrets of tho
Cabinet, but we have been furnished with information from
a source upon which we can rely with much confidence,
and we believe the following will be found, when the day
of revelation comes, to constitute the ministerial proposal"
on financial matters The malt duty is to be entirely re-
pealed, and Schedule 13 (of 31d. in the pound) on the
farmer's rental is to be altogether abrogated. The other
schedule in the Income Tax Act, which imposes a tax of
7d. on trades, incomes, and professions, is to be most mate-
tinily altered—namely, to be reduced From 7d. in the pound
to 241., and the charge to be made upon all incomes at and
above 501. per annum, instead of 1501. as heretofore. The
property tax is to be raised from 7d. to is. in the pound—
the funds are to be taxed towards the maintenance of the
poor, and the tax on carriages, horses, dogs, &c., is to be
entirely ahslished. Such, we are given to understand, is to
be the grand financial scheme of the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer. The repeal of the hop duty has been mooted, but
not finally decided upon ; en alteration in the sugar duties
has been contemplated, but still remainn in abeyance--
whilst a tax upon railways has been fully discussed, and
may be proposed ere the world is many months older.

THE LONDON UNIVERSITT.—A correspondent says
that as soon as parliament meets, the members of the senate,
who constitute the ruling body of the London University,
purpose to renew their most strenuous efforts in order to
obtain one representative at least for this great educational
community. There are now no less than four seats in the
House olCommons unallotted,—two for Sudbury, and two
for St. Albans, both of which places have been disfranchised.
It is felt that Lord Derby cannot do better with the seats at
his disposal than to confer one of these, at the least, upon a
body of men who in this age of progrcas bid fair in the
course of a few years to ezercise as powerful an influence on
the national mind as either Oxford Sr Cambridge. It is in
eentempiletion, we believe, to call together a meeting of the
ornate before long, to ascertain the state of feeling prevalent
among its members, and to take measures accordingly.

Di lams has needlesel; assumed towards Belgiam,
a weak and vulnerable. ally, an attitude of bullying,
which almost drivel, us to the conclusion that the
object seems to lit, rather to test the political spirit of
Belgium than to settle commercial claims that may
have been in discussion between the two countries.
To render Belgium practically and palpably sub-
servient to French interests and wishes la the avowed
aim of LOUIS NAPOLEON and his ministers. Demand
has followed demand during the last nine months on
various subjects, but more especiallyon points relative
to the extradition of political exiles, and to the free-
dom of the press, each more exacting and more sum-
mary than the previous one ; and all but too obvi-
ously tending to convey to the King and statesmen
of the Low Countries, that independent and secure
neutrality will not be permitted them; but that
sooner or later they must either agree to form an un-
annexed dependency of France (like Westphalia and
I Naples in the former days of the Empire), or elm
i prepare for the consequences.
I Had King LEOPOLD been contented to adopt the
former alternative, the opportunity was afforded him
by the break-up of M. Itoolea's administration, for
tacitly giving hostages to France for his future sub-
missive behaviour. The park pears are ostentatiously
Bonapartist in their sympathies, from the Rhine to
the Adige; and the ministerial crisis having been
brought about by their influence, it would have bests
easy for the Sovereign, under the show of an affected
compliance with the will of a nominal majority in
the Chamber of Deputies, to have summoned to his
councils an ultra-catholic Ministry. Nor would
it have been possible for him to have consti-
tutionally done otherwise, had the majority
been in point of fact wholly or substantially
ultra-montane in their opinions. But the vote
which overthrew the late Liberal cabinet was
obtained by the momentary junction of tho mode-
rate Conservative section of the chamber with the
bigotted or reactionary opposition. And no sooner
was the result seen, and the chuckle of exultation in
Paris, at tho embarrassment and humiliation thus

caused, overheard by the section alluded to, than
they began to repent them of what they had done,
and to show how little unity of sentiment or purpose
there exists between them and those who had con-
trived to make use of their temporary aid. Hence
the rapid dissolution of the majority of last July,
and the redistribution of the legislative body into its
more natural and more honourable proportions,
which for twenty years have almost with-
out interruption presented the spectacle of
a decided preponderance in favour of true
religious equality, genuine freedom of educa-
tion, perfect liberty of the press, and gradual eman-
cipation of trade from all differential preferences. The
moderate Conservatives in Belgium us in Piedmont
yield to none in their spirit of nationality, and their
aversion to priestly rule. Their fear of democratic
innovation may sometimes mislead them into taking
up a wrong position in party warfare; but the first
shadow of foreign encroachment, whether Pspal or
imperial, that darkens their path, is sufficient to warn
them of their error, and to drive them cordially into
the ranks, once more, of those that rally in defence of
independency of thought and independency of the
soiL

It is upon the sustainment which such a party
can give him, in concert with that of the decided
Liberals of all shades, that King LEOPOLD relics for
the maintenance of his throne and the integrity of
his realm. In the hands of an ultra-montane cabi-
net both would infallibly have been lost. To believe
this it is not necessary to ascribe personal baseness
and treachery to all the individuals who might have
composed it. It is possible to imagine that amongst
them men would have been found whom the exor-
bitant demands or overweening insolence of France
would have ultimately stung into resentment,
perhaps into resistance. Bat their remorse
would have come too late. Formed under
such circumstances, an ultra-catholic admiuis-
tendon would have been deemed by Europe, and,
—what is more important,—by the mass of the Bel-
gians themselves, as nominees of the Elysie.
No diplomatic assurances given by them would have
read in any other light than as enclosures in the
despatches of M. DRUMM DE Lnuve; and no legis-
lative enactments or administrative appointments
would have been regarded by the people as untainted
and independent. The loyalty of the nation to its
institutions would have been wounded even unto
death ; and in weariness and loathing men would
have begun to think whether incorporation with the
renascent Empire would not be less degrading and
more safe than so anomalous and despicable a condi-
tion. Bat Belgium has now a Liberal government to
whom the friends of progress may look with hope
for the maintenance of constitutional liberty in that
country.
Rumours which have recently prevailed about
the terms said to have been dictated by Russia,
Prussia, Austria, and England, as the condition of
their joint protectorate of Belgium against France,
will naturally cause men to look with some degree
of anxiety at the measures of tho now cabinet. It is
confidently stated that one of the principal causes
of M. DE BROUILEZE'S failure in his first attempt to
form a ministry some weeks ago, arose from his re-
pugnance to accept any base condition, and there is
no reason to suspect him of any instability of pur-
pose on this fundamental point, or to doubt the
fidelity of the King to the principles whisk have
characterised his his and reign. The WWI= of
the Moderate Conservatives, though tardy, has bow
timely, and we will not suffer ourselves to beams
that their votes in favour of M. DinriOSSl, as.presi-
dent of the chamber., were won by any concession on
the part of the Liberals inconsistent with constitu-
tional or national honour.

The Prefect of the Loire Inferieure has closed the

inefficiency, and that the tendency of such a state of
things is to lead to a breach of the pease. The
decree for closing the theatre further states, that no
blame is imputable to the , whose hands
were tied by contracts made by ird parties. The
manager le, therefore, created a plenipotentiary, for
the purpose of forming a new company, subject only
to the previous approbation of the Prefect of every
engagement. Who will say, after this, that France

The Ausiliaire Breton gives the following account

Atrarrible accident, which might have been fatal, has
happened to us. At two o'clock in the afternoon of the
26th a tremendous hurricane, which was felt all along the
cornet, carried away the bridge of La Roebe•Bernard. The
diligence from Nantes had just crossed over it, and by a
providential chance no person was upon the bridge at the
time. This bridge was a gigantic work. It united the whole
southern part of Brittany with Nantes and the smith. It
was formerly necessary to moss the Vilnius is a beat, and

I have just been a witness of, and even an actor
in, one of the greatest events in the history of the
world instantaneous interchange of thought
between London and Paris. This memorable
event occurred—moo far as Paris is eonorrned—
in a little back office of the Ministry of the
Interior, without parade, without much previous
notice, and in the promos of Tay few inch-
Weals. From sours trivial defect in the arrange-
ment—a defect certain to be remedied almost imme-
diately—the experiment was made with some diffi-
culty. For some time nothing intelligible could
be deciphered. But at length the ques-
tion, "Are you Paris r convinced 111 that our
friends did not quite know whom they were talking
to. It was the opinion of the scientific men that the
wires, either on the French or English coast, were
not well connected. The experiment will, I believe,
bo repeated to-morrow.
