this sum being borrowed of 31r. Nison, of Soho. and an
assignment of the property being given to Mr. Nison, as
security for the advance. The corn taken with him to
France was 300/. or 4001. There was so mention in
the books respecting this sum of 5001, He alto
took the two acceptances with him to France,
but they were returned to his non who had made
advances for him in the meantime. He had seen the name
i of W. Strange, junior, over the door of the shop, but did
not know at what period the word "junior" had been
added. He returned to England in February, 1840, and
spin in August ;he had been to Paternoster-row once, but
did not know at the time that Ingram and Cooke's proceed-
ings were pesdind. Wan a bankrupt, as a bookseller, in
1829, his debts Is,ing 1,400!.. the dividend paid amounting
to 2e. 6d. in the pound. Would not swear that his debts
were not 2,8001. He had been an insolvent in 1835, but
could not recollect the amount of his debts toa thousand or an
pounds. No dividend was paid under that insolvency. He
should say that be then owed about 1,300!. Ihe name of Mr.

should be examined, in order that the best legal
opinion may be obtained upon the case. If that opinion
be against the validity of the marriage, thee something
should be allowed you in charity. If it be a legal
marriage then you should bo treated with consith ra-
tion. All I eirin do is to afford you • little trifling relief
front the pour-box, and I cannot conceive that the funds can
be better bestowed, from what I have been told about you.
The applicant further stated that her papers had been
also perused by Mr. Fraser, a barrister, whose opinion was
that the marriage was legal. She felt bound also to men-
tion that the parish had offered to p.sss her and her children
to Lard Huntingtower's parish, but that she could not bear
the idea of a separation from them.
The clergyman who accompanied the applicant stated
that he had traced her career from the time of her being a
companion to a lady up to the present moment, and that
the result of his inquiries satisfied him that she was a very
well-disposed and well-conducted young woman, and that
there was not the slightest grounds for charging her with
impropriety of conduct.
The magistrate then ordered 21. to he handed to the
in addition to which some silver was collected by

her distressed and unfortunate position.
The applicant, who was much moved by this kind-
ness, appropriately thanked the magistrate, and, with the
Rev. Mr. Cuff, withdrew.

FRIDAY EVENIXO.
On Thursday next, the Ist of May, according to
annual custom, the transfer offices of the Bank of
England and the Stuck Exchange will be closed.
The Exhibition opening will likewise in all proba-
bility be celebrated as a holiday. To-morrow,
I (Saturday) and Monday, are usually days of little
business, on Tuesday and Wednesday the arrange-
ments for the account in the foreign stock
I and share markets will materially interfere with the
disposition to effect new operations, and as on Thurs-
day the holiday intervenes, there is little prospect of
much activity in the beginning of the week.
A deputation of the Committee of Mexican Bond-

AMERICAN GOODS.

In that part of the building devoted to the produce
of American industry, the most noticeable feature is the
largeness, of the space allotted, an compared with the very
meagre show of goad•. Whether this inequality will be
removed by subsequent arrivals within the very few days
which yet remain for pre•parttion we an• not aware, but if
not it would be desirable to divide the surplus room be-
tween those other foreign exhibitors who in the neighbour-
ing compartments are complaining of undue limitation.
Nlany of the articles sent from the Mates are still resting in
their packing-eases, and of these. beyond the notification
made in the published list•, we can give no ac-
count. Of those which hare been brought to
light, and are now being arranged round the walls
and upon the counters mad floor, utility rather than
elegance of design, elaborate ornament or high finish, seems
to be the chief characteristic. There are two comport-

ments of the building assigns d to the States, each opposite
the other, at the eastern end of the nave. One of these
appears to be intended for the exhibition of heavy goods,
and here we have various descriptions of ploughs, harrows,
winnows, and other agricultural machines. Some few lathes,
a planing machine, and other articles of engineering me-
chanism, well finished, and in all other respects adapted for
their several uses, lie scattered about here and there.
Grouping with the agricultural implements, a small steam-
boiler and engine, a few American house stoves, and ■
number of pots, pans, and other cooking utensils. By the
way, of these American house stoves, a hint might well be
taken by our own stove makers. They combine in • very
small space—not larger than that occupied by an ordinary par-
lour pate or cottage range—acomplete kitchen ',pintas—

TUNISIAN GOODS.

In a department of the building near the south
end of the transept are to be found the Tunisian contribu
tions to the exhibition, guarded by persons whose attire in- '
stantly recalls to mind many a tale of Turkish or Corsair
life, and almost renders one dubious as to the reality of a
scene in which such mentally and traditionally fearful
individuals are playing the part of competitors in the
peaceful arts. When a few glances have assured the spec-
tator, and he has had time rapidly to draw a favourable
comparison between the present and the still recent past,
he may begin to examine some of the objects presented to
his view. In a glass case of huge dimensions are to he seen
an assemblage of curious articles of dress, all heaped toge-
ther at present in not unpicturesque confusion. Conspi-
cuous amongst them arc several riding hats, circular in form,
not very unlike a parasol, minus the handle, and of a girth
which puts to shame the broadest brimmed jaraws seen in
this country in the hottest summer the materials of which
they arc composed being feathers, figured satin, &e. In
the same ease is a lady's dress of figured satin, of smock
fashion, the breast decorated with rich, gilt embroidery. A
gentleman's cloak is similarly adorned, and some striped
figured bedhangings also invite inspection. In ledges round
this case are contained various ornaments for female use,
consisting chiefly of gold and silver bracelets and necklace-,
and of what, for want of a better term, we must call silver
anklets—these last being sayer ornaments for feminine

reading through the regulations of the
Commissioners as to the prices of admission, it occurred to
me that the usual announcement of "children, half- price "
was wanting. In all exhibitions fur amusement this is
found to answer, for it brings numbers who otherwise would
be absent, and, .1 fortiori, in an exhibition for instruction
the rising generation should be cared fur. With families
the consideration is important, and I should suggest that
after the first day children under a limited age should be

receipts in the corresponding month of 1850 were
9,705,217 fr., and in 1849,11,671,624 fr. The increase
in the latter year was mainly due to the greater
amount of duties raised on French colonial sugar,
which reached two-and-a-half millions, whereas in
11850 it was one-and-a-half, and this year little more
than ouc million. The total amount of duties raised

the liabilities, the notes in circulation have decreased
11 millions in Paris, and 1 a million in the depart-
ments. The account-current of the treasury has in-
creased about 41 millions, the present amount being

MONEY MARKET.

THIS DAY.

Two o'CLocx.
The English stock market has been very quiet
to day, with prices firmly maintained at yesterday's
range.

continue good, and there are at present no influences
of a depressing nature in active operation either at
home or abroad.
Consols have been steady, all day at 96) to 97 cx
div. for the opening of the 17th July, which quo-

ditto for the opening, 97, 96), ex div.; Three per
Cent. Reduced, 971, ; Three-and-a-Quarter per
Cents., 983,
Evidence that the partial demand for money is
still to some extent is experienced, is found in
the continued sale of Exchequer Bills, which have
to-day further declined in consequence. The 1,0001.
Bills mark 42a, and 41s. premium ; ditto, 500/., 42a,
46a, and 415.; ditto, Small, 435. and 465. ; India

The business doer in Russian Tallow on the spot has been
less than in the former week, and the rates of that time are
not to be obtained. Fine new Yellow Candle is offered
at 375. to 375. 64., and old 3.is. 61. to 36a. 6d. per cwt.,
whilst lower rates arc looked fur on account of a her stock,
and the falling off in consumption. For delivery little has
been done, ard rates rule at 385.6 d. to 82s. for the last three
months of the sell.

Home melted is offered at 355. to 365. nett cash, and supply
exceeds dealeri' wants. Other sorts of Tallow can be ob-
tained at a small decline, and few sales have been made;
there is a plentiful supply for the time of year. Of all sorts
of Tallow the stock is 11,000 casks more than last year, and
rates are Is. to 2s. per cwt. above ; there is also a smaller
consumption, with several parcels to arrive.

FINE ARTS.

cdr PAINTINGi, LICTIFIELD Rouse,
ST. J.IMES.S-SAVARE.— Last evening, the house
known under this designation was thrown open to a
select circle of connoisseurs. Among the company
the foreign elementwasdecidedly the preponderating
one, and for an instant surrounded by the familiar
faccs,and manners of the Continent, one might
have fancied oneself suddenly transported, as if by
magic, across the Channel; nor was the examination
of the paintings calculatedtodispeltheillusion. Whe-
ther thelandscopes,theyeare,or thehistoricalctures,
were glanced at, there was ample evidence that these
contained visionary realms in which the English
painter seldom ventures. Some of these produc-
tions we were already acquainted with, and were
glad to meet once mote; others were new acquain-
tances. Amongst the old friends is Delaroche's
"Cromwell," exhibited in the Academy last year.
English heroes are evidently favourites with conti-
nental painters: witness that gigantic picture
of the " Death of Nelson " by M. Slinge-
never, which may be succinctly characterised as
broad in conception, skilfully composed, but feeble
in drawing, especially the foreshortening. Next in
point of size is the " Bull" of Mr. Ward, remarkably
like the Potter he wishes to rival, but infinitely
larger, which is the sole mistake about it. Paul
Potter could paint small bulls perhaps better than
large ones: Mdlie. Rosa Booheur imitates him in
this respect ; her picture entitled " Charcoal burners
crossing a moor in Auvergne" is worthy the
great Dutchman, and is one of the most charming
works of the exhibition. The works of the Dutch,
Flemish, and French, are ever disfingniShable at a
glance. To the latter school belong Messrs. Sig-
net and Lehmann, who fairly represent the
general tendencies of the French school in church
decoration. The profile-portrait of Listz is extremely
noble; it is painted by Lehmann. M. Schopia, on
the other hand, belongs rather to the exploded
sect of the romantic champions of art. Re is the
author of those charming compositions from "Pahl
et Virginic," to be met with in every shop
window. M. Ziegler enters into the rune splrit. Mr.
Goose a great talent in the historical line,
of w ch his three pictures of St. Vincent de Paul,

TO THE EDITOR OP TILE EIPHE.S.

Sir,—Thc financial aspect of the accounts of this
great undertaking having been well ascertained, the exhi-
bitors I think may now reasonably look forward to some
measure for their own peculiar and quiet enjoyment of the
works which have renderod the Exhibition worthy of its
illustrious promoter, and perhaps you will allow space for
the recommendation that a free admission ticket for six

Saturdays be distributed to each exhibitor. I believe such a
cour.e would allay the disaffection exiting in many contri-
butors.-1 am, sir, your obedient ,o.reaut, A. T.—B.:rners-

THE SPIRITS IN BOND BILL.

On bringing app the report of the committee of supply,
Kr. HAMILTON asked the Chancellor of the Ex-
*howler what course the government proposed taking with
the Spirits in Ilond Bill ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER answered
that the intention of the government was to oppose the bill
at every stags.
Lord HAAS had examined the records of the bowie for
ran, and could bud no precedent for this outrageous
same of the forms of the house. After the repeatedly ex-
pressed opinion of the house, the government were with-
out any justification in the course they were taking. When
It government acted in this manner, an individual placed
es be (Lord Naa)) was had little or no chance.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER reminded
the noble lord of the circumstances under which the first
division took place The noble lord would, on considera-
Sou, probably regret the warmth of the expressions he had
mole use of. . . .

Mr. HUME hoped that no expressions world be used to
divert the house from the real question. lie hoped that
the government would act more wisely, and give way to
the wellies of the house and of Ireland and Scotland in
this matter. . .

r7D IJNCAN alio entreated the government to neon-
Odder their intention.

The conversation dropped and the report was received.
The Administration of Criminal Justice Improvement;
the Prevention of Offenees ; the Lands Clauses Consolida-
tion (Ireland) Bills were severally read a second time.
The Petty Sessions (Ireland) and the Survey of Great
Britain Malls severally passed through committee.
The consideration of the report in the Aylesbury case of
the committee on the petitions of Thomas Hughes Brad-
lord and John Strutt was postponed until Monday.
The Common Lodging-houses Bill was read a third time
/ad. with amendments, passed.

Hyacinths, tulip, and other bulbs, whose foliage is now
fully matured, should be taken up, dried, cleaned, and
stored in an city room till autunni. It is a common prac-
, tice to throw away the old bulbs which have been forced, or
to stink then, into some out-of-the-way border, and take no
further notice of them ; but they arc well worthy of a
greater share of attention. If, after being well ripened,
they are taken out of the soil, carefully stored in a dry
room during their season of rest, and in autumn replanted
in beds of light rich soil, a healthy stock will be established
in a few years, and from these the largest and soundest
bulbs can annually be selected for forcing. Of the remain-
der, those which are large enough to flower at all may be
planted in the flower garden, where they are highly orna-
mental during the spring months, and are at the same pre-
paring themselves for forcing in future years. Therefore
let all the old bulbs you have in or out of ground,
be taked care of till the planting season arrives. Dolly-
hocks, Dahlias, Delphiniums Phloxes, and other her-
baceous plants, must be neatly tied to good strong ,lakes ;
but this is very different to bundling them up in such a
manner as to deprive them of light and air. The object of
tying is to support the weight of the plants; but at the
same time, light and air should be freely admitted amongst
the branches. In tying the hollyhock it is a common prac-
tice to bind up six or eight shoots to ono stake, in which
ease the flowers arc almost entirely concealed by the leaves.
The proper way is to select a few of the strongest shoots of
each plant, and tie them to separate stakes' placed sufli-
ciently distant to admit light and air ; so treated, the flowers'
display themselves to advantage, and their appearance is
truly noble. The hollyhock looks particularly well when in
groups ; single stems have but a stiff and formal appearance.

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE

MARKETS.

MINCINU-LANE, SATURDAT MORNING.
Considerable depression still prevails in the colonial mar-
kc ts, and, though prices of nearly all kinds of produce are
in favour of the buyers, there appears to be very little dis-
position on the part of the trade to operate. she public
sales of Sugar, which have been rather small, have gone off
heavily, but privately a fair amount of business has been
' done at about former rates. A large quantity of the planta-
tion Ceylon Coffee offered for sale has been withdrawn, but
the small quantity sold, being chiefly for shipping, realised
former rates ; the native kinds have declined Is., and Mocha
fully 6s. per cwt. An improvement has occurred in Rico,
and prices fully 6d. per cwt. above the lido quotations have
been obtained. The low sorts of Saltpetre have also been
in demand, at about 3d. per cwt. advance. The Tea market
has been particularly heavy, and a further reduction of id.
per lb. has been submitted to on common Congou. At
public sale to-day, also, lower prices have been accepted for
most kinds of greens.

THE PATENT LAWS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE EEPRES.I.

Stn,—The Great Exhibition, about which so much
was heard, is now an existing fact, and of course must not
be alluded to except in terms of the most unqualified ad-
miration. Can you possibly allow me in the midst of these
universal gratulations to ask what has become of a promise
which I iutd many °tip rs understood to be made some time
since. I believe that a pledge was given that the patent laws
should he so altered that they should in future not benefit ex-
clusively the retch, rs of official fees, but should afthrd some
protection to the property of meritorious inventors. I never
knew a man who did not in private admit that the present
state of the law wa- it disgrace to any nation boasting of its
' arts and manufactur. , but if you dare give publicity even to
these remarks, I shall give you credit for more courage than
is attributed to sOrll•• mo:e polite or more ealculating jour-
nalists. I have seen the Exhibition, and been prevented
by the law from exhibiting. I remain, tic.,

Many plant-, such as early-forced azaleas, which have oc-
copied the houses up to the present period, may now with
advantage be placed out of doors in a sheltered and parti-
ally shaded situation. Cacti should be set out in a sunny
place, which is better aduptal to their succulent habit; awl
we find that their growth is more robust, and that they
Mower w ith greater freedom, from being placed in front of
a south wall during the latter part or the sunnier, and
watering them occasionally with weals liquid manure.
Plants which are useful for autumn and winter flowering,
such as euphorbia, erantherriurn, justicia, vines, begonia,
gesnera, ganlenia, fninriscea, jasminum, aphelandra, poin-
settia, turenia, cactus truncatus, &c., should continue to re-
ceive
encouragement in the way of rich soil, liberal
pot-room, and au adequate amount of heat suit moisture, in
order that they may form healthy, handsome specimens. It
is well also to propagate some young plants of many of
these kinds, as they will be useful for flowering in small
pots this se•asou, and may be grown on to make large: spe-
cimen for nest. All free-growing planes should have weak
manure water once or twice a week, according to the pro-
grtss which the roots halve made towards the sides of the
pots.
