spot, 50s. to 3d. ; October to December dettet,ry, 40s. ; sepa-

SPIRITS.—Great difficulty having been experi-
enced in the carrying out of the regulations for taking an
account of Spirits imported in bottles, in regard more parti-
cularly to the computation of proof spirit, the Lords of the
Treasury have directed, that, in lieu of the Present mode of
computation by tenths, the more simple end equitable one
of reducing the decimal fractions into gills by one operation,
shall he in future adopted, and all fractional parts rejected
when not not exceeding one-half part of a gill.

METALS.—The Lords of the Treasury hare or-
dered that the duties on Capper and Lead on importation
shall be at once placed on their new to.,ting, as agreed upon
in a resolution of the House of Commons of the 18th inst.
The following, then. will be the revised duties. Copper, ore

GLASGOW, April 72. Our Iron market has been
very quit t. During the week there were some demands for
l'ig Iron in small parcels, for which 41s. 6tl to 425. cash wu
paid. To-day it closes flat, with sellers at 41s. to 41s. 6d.
for all ?lon., f.o.b. The makers are now 'tellers at about
425. to 425. Gd. ; and, as the shipping demand+ have ceased,
lower prices are expected. Common Bars dull, at 61. 1.55. to
71., leas 4 per cent. for cash.

110PS.—WINCI9,TER, April 22.—Trade rather
hotter than on this day wi elt. Reports from the growing
districts ore rather unfavourable.

CORN.— IkIARK-LANE.—With a small supply of
English Wheat by land.careiage samples from the near
counties this morning, factors found little difficulty in ob-
taining an advisee of Is. per quarter upon the rates of
Monday l,st. Foreign Wheat was a more free sale, but can-
not be quoted dearer. Barley was in request, and in
some instances rather more money was obtained. Our mar-
ket was well supplied with Oats, for which article there was
a Rood sale, at fully late rates. English Beans and Peas were
the turn dearer. Egyptian Beans sold at an advance of Is.
