87,91! Act.

Lord Campbell delivem4 the judgment of the court ia
this case, which came before their lordships upon ade
-
miner to a plea of the plaintiff, as repotted a taw days
eine' in the Lepeess. The que.tion at roue was, whe-
ther the cum of 800 J., secured by a bond, wee payable.
deisodant contended it was not, on the ground that
the 'mount was in truth the consideration money for the

mavemate effected by a certain family deed of 'arrange-
meat, aad that such deed, being in point of fact a sale, and
not eapreedag that a valuable consideration was paid, tell
within the revisions of the stamp sets, which require that
in all Wee the det d of conveyance shall truly rupees the
amount of consideration, and, in default of this, a tact the
amount may be withheld from the conveying party. The
Court wire of opinion that the transaction in question wee
not a sale, but a partition ; therefore it was not a
that the amount paid for "equality of exchange" eese=
be dares ed in the deed.

Cottager o. HUDION.—RIONT or A PANTY CONDUCTING

HIS OWN CASE To II RICANINID AS A WITNIOOI.
In the early part of this term, Mr. Cubbett moved is
for a rale to show cause why a new trial should not

in this ease, on the ground that the learned judge
had improperly refused to receive his evidence at the trial,
be having acted es his own advocate. This rule was sub-
sequently argued by Mr. Watson, Q.C. for the defendant
aad by the plaintiff an person.
Lord Campbell now delivered judgment. The Court
were of opinion tho rule for a new trial should be mode
absolute. Their lordships were fully aware of the
gamy inconvenient conaecoeness which would follow from
allowing • party to be at once witness and advocate
be hie own cause, and did not hesitate to express their strong
of such a course; bat they could not, es the

Mr. Collier—Do you refuse ?

His Lordship said he thought the waness was entitled to

GREENWICH.
Amelia Elizabeth Burt, aged 30, the wife of a gas-Etter,
residing in London street, Greenwich, was brought up on
remand, charged, on her own confession, with having ensued
the death of her female infant, aged ten months, by throwing
it into the Thames from the Hungerford fiuspension-bridge
on Monday night lut.
The first witness called was Polies-constable Osborne,
264 It, who deposed that on Tuesday morning last, about
two o'clock, his attention was attracted to the prisoner wan-
dering about Burney-street, Greenwich. On going up to
her, sad asking her where she was going, she replied that
she did not know • and on being asked where she came
from, she replied London. In answer to farther questions,
the prisoner said that she was married, and that her
husband was employed as a smatter in the college ;
that she bad come from Lambeth, and that her name was
'Burt. She also said that she had a family of three chil-
dren, but did not know where they were, with the exception

witness inquired what it was, and then took a child's cloak
from her, which she said belonged to the baby. The ser-
geant then ordered the prisoner to be taken to the station,
which was done; and subsequently witness conveyed the
prisoner to the anion.
' Serjeant Purim' 15 11, stated that on questioning her

Murder " was returned.

The prisoner wu committed to take ker trial on the

MARKETS.

COTTON.—LtynarooL, Nov.2o.—The sales to-day are
rrtinsated at 3,000 bales, 600 of which have been taken on
speculation. The sales comprise 100 Egyptian, 7d. to Bjd. ;
and 200 Surat, 4d. to 40. The market closes heavily, but
without any change ferns yesterday's quotations.
MANCHISTIM, Nov. 20.—Rather more bu•inesa has been
effected in yarns this week, especially in No. 16's to 24's
land 28's to 32's water twist, which have been in request for
I China. There has been rather more business in yarns also
for the Mediterranean. Prices, however, of twist and
goods made from the commoner qualities of American
cotton are still rather in favour of the buyer, though
steadier than at the close of last week. The firer yarns,
however, have not been disturbed in price. In cloths, the
kinds in demand by printers maintain the greatest steadi-
ness' whilst domestics, long cloths, T cloths, and 36 to 40
inch shirting., scarcely maintain their value so well. There
is a large production still going on, but little of which re-
mains in first hands, and there is no reason to suppose that
when the present disturbance of prices in the cotton market
shall hive come to an end, trade here will not resume that
vigorous and healthy aspect which it had acquired a few
weeks back.

Henry was aware of this circumstance, and the pub-
lic were indebted to Mr Wood for the trouble he had taken
in the matter • for the natural snotty of the public to se-
cure their Oasis at any cost, hail led the cabmen of Lon-

little girl of ten years of age.
The complainant stated in effect that on the 16th of Sep-

her mother's, called her into the haute, and told her to go
up stain to Groh her Freddy, and that she aeeordingly
went up ; bat, instead of the child Freddy, found only the
devil, who caught hold of her by the neck. Is explana-

her that what she called the devil was • person dressed up
in • bed-gown, and with • frightful mask on, and she now
believed it was the defendant's daughter. She, however,
was so terrified that she screamed and became insensible ;
and, upon her recovery, found herself with ene leg partly
out of the window. Us added that the devil then struck
her twine with a cane ; and the defendant, who had come
up an hearing her stream, struck her on the head with a

WOOLLEN CLOTH.-Lzons, Nov. 20.-We have
had a fiat quiet market to-day, and only • limited business
has been done. But the stock of cloth in the market is to
small, and of so poor a character, that quite as good a busi-
ness has been done as could be expected. There is regu-
larly very considerable deliveries direct at the merchants'
warehouses, so that the cloth that changes bands in the
market gives only a very inadequate representation of the
trade that is doing, which is quite an average one in balk
cloths. There have scarcely been any buyers in the town
during the present week; business in the warehouses has
Iconsequently been dull and quiet, except in the shipping
trade, in which there is a little activity at present.
. HARDWARE.-Bintimsonao, Nov. 20.-Advices re-
ceived at the commencement of the week from South
America have contained remittances and rather a larger
amount of orders than could be expected, having regard to
the unsettled appearance of political concerns in that
quarter; the orders from thence have very much improved
of late, with • fair promise of their steady increase. The
general condition of trade in the town continues highly
satisfactory ; as respects articles in general use the amount
of orders is large rather than otherwise; in some branches
there are sufficient to keep the manufactories going until
Christmas, and in all they are quite abundant enough to
keep the men fully employed. As usual at this time
of the year the orders from the United States
an small, as they are from Germany, but as
regards other foreign markets they are quite up to
the average, and we are glad to learn that the home trade
r mtiaues steadily to improve. The gun trade in some of
its branches is brisk, 'end workmen are scarcely to be ob-
tained ; the general brass-foundry trade, the lamp and
chandelier manufacture, wire drawers and metal rollers are
all in full work, and with a good prospect before them for
the winter trade. A firm, tarring on • factoring trade,
I has stopped during the week, but the liabilities are not
large-not exceeding, it is understood, 12,0001.; this has
been almost the only hitch of the kind in this vast trading
community daring the year, a fact which shows the sound
principles upon which business here is conducted. A meet-
ing of the creditors in the concern referred to took place •
day or two sines; fißy-flee creditors attended, and from
the statement laid before them, it appears that
the assets, which consist chiefly of debts owing to the con-
cern, somewhat exceed the claims against it. The cause of
the stoppage is understood to have been the result of diffe-
rences between the partners, and, as we are informed, it is
proposed to wind it up at once; the dividend, under any
circumstances, will be large. From the district, we learn
that trade continues in a very prosperous condition, not-
withatandieg some disputes in parts of it between the col-
liers and their employin ;*the great advance in the price of
coal has brought a claim on the masters for an advance in
their prim • in some instances this has been conceded,
whilst in Ware prices remain at the old level. There is a
great deal of dissatisfaction afloat, in consequence of this
want of uniformity in the price paid (or this kind of labour,
and elitism\ very much is to be said on the subject by
both slim, the intsmatlon within our reach inclines as to the
opinion that am demands of the workmen have not been
met is a air and liberal spirit-that is, in those parts of the
MUM where the advance of price has not been conceded.
The ad Made el the district has greatly improved of late ;

adore at present prices ; but the make has been somewhat
impeded by • scarcity in the supply of coal-ace °Wags
which is not likely to be very soon removed.
CORN.-Bosrog, Nov. 20.-The weather having been
so unfavourable during the last week or two, farmers have
not been able to thrash, so that we have have had a quiet
market here during the week. The few dry samples offer-
ing to-day may be quoted about is. per qr. over last week's

NswoAtnavoroir-Triga, Nov. 20.—At our market this
morning we had a less supply of Wheat from the growers,
for which a free sale was experience,' at the full rats of
this day se'nnight, anything extra commanding rather more
money. New Beath Country Wheats were well cleared
oft, and further shipments ma 7 he encouraged, good sound
well coloured descriptions, w. ighing Gollis., but made 6311 e.,
being worth 445. 6d., and 6111 e. richly worth cis. made some
weight. Fine old Norfolk and Suffolk yellow found widiog
buyers at 46e., but where higher term, were required
business was instantly checked. Foreign firmly main-
tained the advance of the week. For Flour there
was a steady inquiry, but higher rates were not
procurable. Rye in lair request and pointing upward..
Being so liberally supplied with Barley, to make progress in
the deposal of middling kinds, of which the great bulk of
the arrivals consists, it has been necessary to give way Is,
per qr., hut the value of the beat was well sustained. Grind-
ing hilly as dear. Malt was scarcely so saleable as of late,
prices however remain unchanged. Boiling Peas in steady
demand, and the same will apply to Beans. For some fine
new foreign, weighing 661 M. per bushel, 36e. was obtained,
With Oats we were fairly supplied, and the quality being
much worse than heretofore, such sorts sold steadily and
must be written the turn cheaper, but all other descriptions
sold fully as high of late, old being in fact the turn clearer
with a more extended enquiry. New Scotch of 40 lbs. to
41 lbs. would commend freely 295. per sr. The arrival.
this week are: coastwise, 2,0 i 8 ; foreign, 239;
Rye, eoaatwise, 38; Barley, 3,474; Malt, 220; Outs, 156 ;
Peas, 18; Beans, 10; Flour, 1,972 sack,.
Notts/led, Nov. 20.—Our market to-day was but scantily
supplied with Wheat by the growers, and rather higher
prices were asked. The business transacted was at rates
rather exceeding those of last week. Merchants were alter-
ing st late rates and there was a beta r tone on the part of,
the miller.. Flour was in good requst, at rates quite equal
to last week, and a fair quantity changed bands. In a t.w '
• instances prime marks commanded 6.1. per sack f.o.b. Bar-
ley was in abundant supply • merchants were less anxious
Ito purchase, and prices receded quite Is. per qr.; grinding
sorts were also easier to buy. Beans and Peas were in small
I supply; prices unaltered. Oats were in good supply, and
moved off at leM rater. Wheat, white, 44a to 495. per qr. ;
red, 38s. to 425. Barley, melting. 30s. to 325. ' • grinding,
245. to 264. Beans, 335. to 38s. l'e'as, 31s. to 33x. Oats,

lone month's credit. Retail, Is. &I. per stone.
PITE4IIOIIOIIOII, Nov. 20.—Owing to the wet weather'
we had but a small show of Wheat here to-day; dry
samples, Is. to 2s. per qr. dearer; fine, 611b5., red Wheat
made 40s per qr. Barley, Is. to 2s. per qr. lower. Oats
could be bought at rather less money. No alteration in the
value of Beans or Peas.

READING, Nov. 20.—The incessant rain falling heavily
durini, the whole of the market hours, renders it difficult to
give an accurate statement. What few transactions took
place, however, wore on much the lame terms as last wels.
The whole of the water mills in this neighbourhood are
inundated by the flood, consequently a great deal of Wheat
remains unsold. Barley from Is. to 2a. cheaper.
Wiliam', Nov. 20.—More Wheat to-day and lcu of
other grain. Good dry Wheat is Is. per qr. dearer, and all
other sorts in better demand. Oats, Beans, and l'eu find
buyers at somethirg over last week's prices.
WORCESTZR Nov. 20.—There we, a limited supply of
Wheat at market to-day, and rather higher prices were ob-.
tamed for all descriptions. Barley 6,1. per qr. lower. Oats
fully maintained their (value, with a good demand. On
Beans the turn was in favour of the buyer, and Peas were
much less sought after.

YORK, Nov. 20.—The quantity of Wheat offering at to.
day'. mavket is again small, and prices must be noted rather
in favour of the seller. We have a large show of Barley,
which met a slow sale at a decline of fully 11. per qr. Oat-.
and Beans sell at hit week's prices. Wheat, white, 435. to
48a. per imperial .Ir.; red, 4us. to 435. Barley, malting,
28s. to 31s. ; grinding, 26.. to 28s. Rye, 291. Malt, ills.
to 68s. Oats, ftid. to 91d. per stone of 111bs. Flour,
335. per sack of 2901b5.

Dost tn, Ntm.l4—Tbere was *rather better demand f .r
home wheat and oats today. Barmy scarcely maintained
the late currency. We note • rated demand fur Indian
corn at last week's rates. NVhite wheat, 235. 6d. to
275. 62. ; red ditto, 235. Od. to 265.; barley, new, 12s. Gd. to
155.; oats, old, 10s. 6d. to Ile. 6d. ; new ditto, 9s. 3d.

WATERFORD, Nov. 20.—Another week of heavy and in-
cessant rain ha rendered the condition of onr farmers'
Wheat even worse than it wu before, depreciated its qua-
lity, and reduced its value from Gd. to Is. per barrel. fiats
and Barley being less affected by the weather, continue to
command ready sale, at former rates. We have bad a very
hrge import of Wheat and Maine since Saturday last. For
the former there is a good inquiry, at full prices; but
Indian Corn sells slowly, and at some reduction on the best
qualities. Holders, however, aro generally firm, and ex-
pect a brisker demand, with better prices, as s on as the
cargoes now in our river have been landed. Flour of all
kinds sell freely, without change in value. Imports this
week : Wheat, 6,921 qn. ; Indian Corn, 11,665 ; Flour,
370 sacks. Exports this week : Wheat, 33 brls. • Barley,
100 ; Oats, 6,101; Flour, 1,472 seeks ; Oatmeal, 6.03 ewts.
KIIIIICALDT, Nov. 20.—At our country markets this week
we had only a moderate supply of Wheat which readily
brought an advance of Is. per qr. Barley and Oats in
better supply, and both sold freely at last week's prices.
Here, to-day, wo had good supplies of all kinds of grain.
