WOOLHI

1, May 3.—From the present

lowneu of stocks on hand, and consequent want orehotee,
we have not much doing in Wools, buyers holding back till
the approaching London sales, expected to commence on
the 19th, or soon after.

MANUFACTURES.—HUDDERSFIELD, May 3.—The
attendance of buyers has not been numerous in this market
to-day, though the sales effected in the middle and best
descriptions of goods usually brought here has fully reached
the average of last month, which hu been the busiest
month during the present year. The demand for lower
qualities of fancy mixtures, &c., has not been so brisk, and
stocks of this description are beginning to accumulate.

CORR.—Hi/IA,, Mny 3.—We had to-day a fair show of
Wheat from:our own farmers, and rather more of foreign
than latterly ; for the latter we experience more demand,
and English war not more than Is. per qr. below the price
of last week. We have a further addition to thv iwporte
or Darby, out ins market is well supported. Oats are rather
dull. Beans meet improved demand, as do also the best
samples of Peas. The Linseed market is without alteration,
as are also Linseed Cakes. Nothing doing in Rapeseed, and
cakes are rather in favour of buyer. A good sale for Bases.
Imports from April 23 to April 29 : Wheat, 3,396 qrs ;
Barley, 8,564 ; Oats, 1,548; Beans. 280 ; Peas, 48 ; Tares,
261; Linseed. 6,8.50 ; Rapeseed, 3,278; Oil Cakes, 332 tons ;
Bones, 573; Guano, 96. .
LZEDS. MAT 3.—Our reported arrivals of grain are
small, and the show of fresh wheat continues very
limited; the demand is still chiefly on this description,
and the rates of last week are obtained ; graneried parcels
meet with but little attention, and lower prices would be
taken to lead to business. Barley, slow sale. Beans
and oats scarcely fetch so much money. Other articlos
as before. Arrivals this Reek: Wheat, 3,298; Oats, 95;
Barley, 823; Beans, 967; Shelling, 74; Rapeseed, 703.

LYNN, May 3.—We have had a moderate supply of
Wheat to-day; the trade dull, and about Is. per qr. lower.
Very little beside at market. The following were current
prices :—Wheat, old, 621bs. to 631b5., 455. to 475. per qr.
to the growers; best runs new, &bibs. to 591b5., 38s. to
40..•' ditto, inferior, 551bs. to 571b5., Us. to 375. Barley,
293. to 325. beans, 32E to 3Gs.
NEWCASTLE, May 3.—The weather still continues cold
and ungenial. The last two days we have had a strong sea-
fret. At our market this morniug we had a moderate show
of Wheat from the growers, but from abroad the arrivals
are liberal. Fresh-thrashed samples sold upon much the
same Terms as on Saturday ; if any change were perceptible,
it was slightly in tavour of the buyer, but to make progress
in foreign it was necessary to submit to a reduction of fully
2s. per qr., bat at that decline a fair business was done.
For raw Wolgast red, 471. could not be exceeded, weighed
631b5.,• whereas other sorts sold at proportionate rates.
The price of households may now be considered to be re-
duced to 335., the state of London scarcely justifying our
milers to hold out longer. Norfolk qualities consequently
sell very Cowly, and 335. can only be made for retail quer-
ties. Rye nominally the same. For malting Barley we
experienced a very slow inquiry, 325. being an extreme
quotation for the best south country, weighing naturally
51/il).. and 31s. for 521br. Grinding a dull tale, and rather
cheaper. In other articles we have little variation to note.

KINGSTON, APRIL u.
The proceedings of the legislature, is Ks far as they affect
the trade of the colony, have not been of a character to lead
to the supposition that the impending dispute between the ,
Council and the Assembly will be immediately settled. The
latter body it is expected will re-enact the existing Import
Duty Bill, but in such a shape as will render it doubtful
if the council will accede to it. The existing Import Duty
Bill will expire with this month ; and in the event of the
council objecting to any new act which may pass the as-
sembly prior to the 30th inst., a recurrence of that state of
things which was produced some four years back by similar
conduct on the part of the legislature, is likely to be the
result. tinder these circumstances, all business operations
are arrested, and dealers for the most part will only pur-
chase for immediate consumption.
GOLD AND SlLVER.—Duubloons continue very scarce,
and cmitmand 4 per cent. American and British gold are
worth per cent. premium. Silver dollars are quoted at
the same value. This rise in the value of coin is attribu-
table chiefly to the eager desire of the large number of
Coolies who are leaving the island to obtain any description
of gold or silver which is or may become current in India,
in exchange for our local notes. A rather large amount,
too. will be taken away by the passengers per Glentanner
which appointed to sail hence for lslelbourne tomorrow.
ExcitANGes ON Los:DON.—Colonial and Jamaica Banks:
90 d Is, 1 per cent. pram. ; GO days, 11 per cent. prem. ;
30 dap, 2 per cent. prem.

PROSELTTIBING AT JERUSALEM.—The Trieste Ga-
zette publishes a letter dated March 27, in which it is said
that on the 2tth the members of the English mission for
the conversion of the' Jews assembled beforo the Great
Synagogue, whist service was going on in the interior, and
began making furious speeches against the Jews and the
Talmud. A Jew threw a dead cat at the head of the physi-
cian of the mission, and this was the signal for a conflict be-
tween the Jews and the English—both parties pelting one
another with stones and mud. Eventually the English had
to take to flight, and they 'care pursued by several hundred
furious Jews. The chief Rabbi protested against those pro
ccedings to the consuls.
ROBBERY IN OIFORD-STREET.—Yeaterday morn-

inginformatien was forwarded from the "servile police sta-
tions of an extensive burglary which were effected on the
prem;ses of Mr. W. Burchett, two doors from Prince's-
street, Orford-street, when property to the amount of seve-
ral hundred pounds was carried off, between the hours of
ten o clock on Saturday night and seven o'clock on Monday
molting last. The upper part of the shjoining house is to
let, and through it the thieves are supposed to have effected
an entrance. They then commenced packing up every
valccble article, including 250 gold r.nd silver watches, 200
Bold guards, 700 rings, GO gold bracelet', 200 gold brooches,
besides studs, sleeve links, watch brooches, shirt pins, and
other descriptions of property.
