MARK-LANE-THIS DAY.

There was scarcely any English Wheat fresh up for
this morning's market, few parcels on sale consist-
ing chiefly of those which remained over unsold from the
beginning of the week. The weather basing be-
come again unsettled, there was more firmness dis-
played by holders, and needy Doyen bad to pay rates fully
equal to those of last Monday week, prices which were not
obtained last Monday, but below which factors for the most
part then refused to Dell. In Foreign Wheat the trans-
actions were cot large, bat prime were well supported.
Batley was in limited request, audits value underwent no
change.

Gond went horse-corn was quite es dear, but all @noonday
and inferior qualities of oats were mon difficult to sell.

The Pavilion has been crowded with themsands of ladies,

band, at about 1 &dock. All the tickets for the dinner
were sold before 10 o'clock, within an hour of their being
saleable. The trnins have been monstrous, and the canines
innumerable. The ball, last night was crowded and splen-
did ; illuminations are becoming general. Trains of 40 oar-
thorn have been of common occurrence; and apedal trains
have been running for the accommodation of wringers. So
crowded were the carriages that persons actually rode upon
the roofs. The station has been barricaded to take off the
pressure of the crowd. Never before was Exeter seen under
sash eireumstances. The excitement is almost unprece-
.

dented, even for an agricultural ,veek. The Repaid maims

FISTULA INFIRMARY.

Yesterday, the 14th anniversary festival of this
institution took plea at the Albion Tavern, Alderegate-
s• rest ; the Loan litaxoa in the chair.
The usual loyal toasts having been disposed of,
Mr. Alderman COPELAND rou to propane the toast of
the evening, saying that he had observed every year an in-
creasing anxiety on the part of the public respecting the
welfare of this institution. It appeared that during the
past year 643 patients were admitted to the benefits of this
institution. Of these 271 were discharged as cared, 157 had
been relieved, 6 were considered as incurable, and 1 had
act. Considering the limited sphere of action in which the
operations of the society were carried on he thought the
results had been most favourable, and he thought he misfit
truly say that if the limits had been extended, many persons
wno hid gtne to their gray.a through this disease might
have been restored to health. He was happy to be enabled
to state that the auxiliary society of relieved patients, estab-
Wished at Bethnal Oreen, had subscribed Aeons@ of the
members to so small an 'man% as one farthing) a sum of
361. 16,. towards the (awls of the institution. He (Mr.
ANerman Copeland) hoped he was addressing gentlemen
who would seethe necessity of exerting themselves towards
extending the benefits of the institution. He would conclude
by appealing to the charitable feelings of those who took
an interest in objects of benevolence, and by prepoeing the
tout which the Lord Mayor had placed in his hands, viz.,
" Prosperity to the Fiera& lobrmary."
The toast having been responded to with the usual setae-
deem, other taut, were drunk, and in the course of the
evening the Chairman proposed the " Health of Mr. Mu-
terman, the treasurer of the institution," who, in returning
thank., said he had always taken a deep interest in the wel-
fare of the society, and he was glad to find from the atten-
dance of gentlemen upon the present cccuion that the ob-
jects of the charity continued to be understood and apple.
dated.
Several gentlemen in due course addressed the company,
and amongst them were Mr. Alderman Copeland (who re-
turned thanks on behalf of the auxiliary society of relieved
pieJents), and Mr. Freabfiald, high sheriff of Surrey. The
former stated that the society alluded to had subscribed in
small amounts of a p•nny and upward., a sum of 4001. to-
wards this institution ; VAN evince g, notwithstanding their
humble sphere in life, the interest they took in an institu-
tion which had enabled them to carry on their buainen in
health and comfort. He was happy to take this oppor-
tunity of saying that there were several men in his employ
who would long have been numbered among the dead had
it not been for the exis•ence of this institution.
'fhs next tout was that of the "Honorary Physicians,
Surgeons, and Founder of the Inatieuti:a."
Various gentlemen addressed the company in support of
the several touts set down for them, and in the course of the
evening subscriptions were announced amounting to about
9001.

PROPOSED ALTERATIONS IN THE

ZOLLVEREIS TARIFF.

The merchants and manufacturers whose opinion
on the intended Customs Duties Act the government war
desirous of learning, met at Berlin on the 10th, for the first
time under the presidency of the Minister of Commerce
and Public Works. The minister opened the proceedings
' by explaining the motives by which the government had
been led, since 1848, to desire a revision of the tariff, at-
counting also for the delay which had taken place
is proceeding with the same. The government were anxi-
ous to see the material prosperity of the country promoted
by the comple.ion of a more perfect system of communica-
tions between its different districts by the cheapness of mei-
mnee and the e Lployment of the people. In respect of the
first, comprehensive measures were under consideration ;
with regard to the two lest propositions for a revision of the
tariff had been prepared. These propositiows had for their
object to moderate the import duties on first Lecinariee,
as wheat, seeds, fruits, cattle, rice, and butter ;
further, to remit the Import duties on all raw
materials of manufacture, so far es this is com-
patible with the claims of the exchequer and a due
regard to the interests of home producers; to raise the duty
on linen and cotton yarn, and also on woollen yarn, accord-
ing to the principles laid down by Prussia in 184.5, then
applied more particularly to linen yarn ; to modify the duty
on woven textures, arranging them under a new classifica-
tion ; end, lastly, to moderate, or aboli,b, the greater part of
the transit and export duties, and to abate the river duties at
proem' levied. A memorandum containing the completer
development of these principles was handed to the members
of the Assembly, and the next sitting announced to be
held on the following day.

WEST WHEAL JEWEL MINING COMPANT.—Yea-
terday the annual meeting of this company was bold at the
aloes, 67, Old Broad.street—Yr. It. Herron In the chair.
The report stated that there was only a diminution of 401.
as compared with the previous year. The directors how-
ever, felt it incumbent upon them to stake that without
further discoveries were made, la order to carry out the
views of the committee, a call would be made is the course
of three or four months. It appeared from the reports of
the Ongwa 004141111 and the osennalttee in Cornwall that
the neeessery to be *Remand would cost about 1,0001.
The balsam-sheet showed that at the last meeting there

WURTEMBERO.

The National Assembly, called to revise the 81111-
pended ecustitstion of this country, having presented
a petition to his Majesty for an amnesty fee all politi-
es! offenders, has received $ reply to the effect that
the King declares his intention of exereisiag the
royal grace on grounds of publiejustics, and with an
eye to the well being of toe state. Referring to the
purity of naive attributed in the petition to many of
the patriotic party now undergoing punishment, he
declares that freedom and the unity of Germany were
only pretexts for lawless designs; that most of the
criminals were either men of desperate condition or
ambitious vises. It they had not succeeded it was
owing to the energy of the government, and the
of their efforts could not be alleged in
[war of the criminals. The government was de-
termined to maintain en attitude which wonid deter
all the evil disposed from renewed violence, and so'
glee room for confidence, credit, and trade to revive.
The prayer for a general amnesty would therefore be
refused, while the King would exercise his mercy in
those in,tances where the honour of the law would
not suffer thereby.

FRANCE.

PARIS, THURSDAY II:VINING.
To-day the Assembly had receives to a fresh ballot
for electing the three remaining members of the
Committee of Permanence. lhe intense struggle of
parties caused the result to be awaited with much
anxiety. The number of voters was 498 ; abs3lute
majority 250. Combarel de L-yval obtained 26,1
votes; °anion, 255; Grevy, 248; Chembolle, 225;
Braies, 213; Fremy, 131; Delessert, 108. The two
first alone were 'declared elected. °anion is one of
the candidatts of the moderate majority; Combarel
de Leyval belongs to the tiers-par.i. The house pro-
oteded to a second ballot for the determination of the
last member. The moderates were straining every
nerve to exclude Gravy.
The result of the second ballot was in favour of the
moderates, whose candidate, M. Chambolle, obtained
20 votes OUR of 617, while Gravy got only 240. Thus
the Committee of Permanence is at last complete.
Notwithstanding the lesson administered to the
Pouvoir, the Moniteur du Soir, another organ of the
President, has attacked the Assembly with still
greater violence. This article, conceived in the most
turgid Bonapartist Tien, turns in succession to the
,Orisanists, the legitimists, and tie Montegnards, end
reproaches them with ingratitude to the nephew of
she Emperor, by the prestige of whose name alone
they were saved. The moderates are told that they
were returned to the Assembly to be the devoted
adherents of the President of the Republic, and that
Louis Napoleon has only to my the word, and the
Mask parliamentary game is up. This article-which
Ms taken up this morning by the Assembles
'lll6loosult, has excited mach lees sensation than the
writer and his employers probably reckoned on. In
the Assembly it was treated with disdain. It was
mid that M. Napoleon Jerome Bonaparte would inter-
rilaratilthe government upon the subject ; but Beroche
and- front the house befoul this move was
ended.
The greater part of the sitting was occupied with
disuse' a re-"ootIon proposed by the committee on
the chapter relative to the Conservatory of Arts and
Traders, which, after a long debate, was thrown out by
381 votes against 210. The rest of the sitting turned
upon the budget of commerce and agriculture; but
no feature worth recording presented itself.
The Assembly voted yesterday the second put of
the budget of the ministry of the interior—namely,
the melees mainteised at the charge of the depart-
month These were formerly no part of the budget,
to which they have been added for the purpose of a ,
more complete inspection and control of departmental

am total corresponding to this head amounts
to nearly 100 =illicit's. Therein' are comprised the
ordinary expenses relative to prefectures, barracks,
prisons, roads, hospitals, &c. But in imposing this
charge on the departments, the law allows them to
levy 17 hundredths additional upon the four direct

The Concordia of Turin of the Sth has the fol-

sturdy hinted at, a passage for its troops across Piedmont,
and in ambiguous terms made allusion to the neat city of a
certain pledge, such as the occupation of fortresses, &c. It
is said that our ministers cornumuicated a note to the am-
bassador of England, who in the name of his governm:nt
promised that the Piedmontese territory should not be
violated, but meanwhile the country should arm ital..
It is said that in the council it was resolved to follow the ad-
vice of England, and that consequently three cAstingents will
be ordered to be embodied. We give this news with the

greatest reserve, because we do not free tent the scions, a,.d
still less the ante-chanabers of the minister. We have our-
selves received this news with much doubt.

of at t, which has by chance fellen ado the hands of
Mr. Hoguth, of the Haymarket. Amid the many
retniniecemies of the late lamented baronet, which
offend the eye by bardering on the jocose, it is a relief
and a pleasure to find one which bears resemblance
c3ui,LAI with befitting calm and dignity. Thii marble
bast, which is to be reduced in Parian, wee, we be-
lieve, executed for a partner of the first Sir Robert
Peel, by Christopter Benini, an Italian sculptor, and
was executed five or six years since. The head is
fine. atd the expression thoughtful ; without losieg
the solemnit♦ of marble, the features are sufficiently
animated and like. It is seldom that a foreign hand
tau so well trace the English type, its gentle traits
and noble mould.

the settlement of the list of contributories, in number 2,610,

crowded, aiOU idioms.' having been summoned to appear, and
a large number of them attending either personally or by
attorney, having been formally summoned by Mr. Hutton,
the official manager, for whom Mr. liottbarghe appeared ry
counsel. The process of proving and putting in the letters of
allotment, application for shares, signatures, &0., occupied.

ticularise, each a considerable time, that only JOU out
of the 500 persons were taken, and of thee* three
were fixed on the list as liable, certain CU

if the deposit wiis not paid by 24th October the letter should
be declared null and void. His Honour held that under the
set of parliament these persons must be gumbos and contri-
