Things were quiet here at the last advises. Ihe revo-
lution on the northern frontier had b.en suppressed, but
attempts had been made by Carvgjal to assemble some
followers on the left bank of the Rio Bravo, which had
been frustrated through the activity of the Americans.
The General Government had issued an order at Ma-
tamoros for again patting in force the ancient tariff in

JAMAICA MARKETS.
(From De Cordova's Mercantile Intelligencer, Feb. 13.)
Flour—The market for this article, in consequence of
the absence of receipts and the diminishing stock, was
assuming a considerably improved appearance, and sales
were of daily occurrence at 28s. per barrel; the hands,
however, of holders becoming strengthened by the impo-
sition of the additional duty of 2s. per barrel, the price
of the article immediately thereafter rose to 305., at
which figure some 1,000 barrels Baltimore and Phila-
delphia were moved. To-day there is not any on offer

POOR GENTEEL WOMEN.
Look aroand your own circle. You know of many
cases such as this:—A seemingly prosperous man is
engaged in the full tide of successful business; he drives
a large trade, and counts his gains by thousands. He
has a family of eons and daughters, whom he educates
at boarding-schools, in all the current knowledge and
trifling of the day. They are carefully tended and kept.
They know no want. They are thoroughly genteel,
and have a large visiting acquaintance. Their characters,
such as they are, become fashioned and formed after the
most approved notions. But suddenly a reverse occurs,
—an unfortunate speculation, a bad season; gi eat lusses
fall suddenly upon the merchant, and he finds himself a
ruined man. You have a genteel family reduced at once
to a state of the most galling poverty; not merely the
poverty of the poor, bat the poverty of the genteel, an
infinitely sadder and more intolerable thing. Or, a
professional man dies suddenly, and when his affairs are
wound up, it is found that he had
hivedlivd fully up to his
income; that those gay parties of ad absorbed all
his spare gains; and that he had not insured his life, or

In this case, which was a charge against John Broome,
talilefrPabud by cheating
and two other persons, of having committed
chea.ting at cards, the circamstances con-
nected with which charge have frequently been before
the public, \
Mr. JOHNSON, who was instructed for the prosecution,
applied to the Court to estreat the recognizances of the
prosecutor lamp, snd to enlarge the recognizances of
tho other witnesses to the next assizes. He said that
his application was founded upon an affidavit, which was
to the effect that Hamp had been called upon to give
evidence before the grand jury, but he had not done so,
and that diligent search bad been made for him and he
could not be found.
Mr. PARRY said be was instructed, on behalf of Charles
Steam, one of the defendants, who was included is the

Mr. JOHNSON said he appeared on behalf of the magis-
trates who had sent the case for trial.
Mr. PARRY said he was quite satisfied with the expla-
nation of his Learned Friend, and he wonld merely
state to the Court that he held in his hand an affidavit
made by the defendant for whom he appeared, in which
he stated that he was most anxious to take his trial, and
at the same time added that he bad never been in collu-
sion with Hemp, or had any communication with him,
or was in any way instrumental to his absence. He was
instructed that he was a man possessed of some property
at Brighton, and that he had carried on an extensive
business in that town; bat the effect of such a charge
hanging over him was likely to cause him seriouesaisnijinyrybe.

" Hull, Dec. 19, 1851.
" C. L. In the beginning of October last I received
from Liverpool three cases of machinery for forwarding
to Copenhagen, which was effected at once by sailing
vessel, the usual entries being passed for British manu-
factured goods, and the senders had overlooked men-
tioning to me that the cases had been sent from Liver-
pool under bond. About three weeks later I was in-
formed by the Customs that such had been the case, and
that I was liable to pay au ad valorem duty of 10 per cent.,
recommending me, however, at the same time, to peti-
tion the Board of Customs to mitigate this impost or
fine, as they—as I presume—were fully satisfied by the
letters laid before them that I was quite unaware of
the circumstance of the cases being under bond. I con-
sequently sent in a petition to the Board of Customs,
which was granted with paying 103. fine or satisfaction.
This I consider is one of the many cases which ought
to be decided by the local custom-house authorities, as I
really do not see any cause to trouble either merchant,
board of customs, or any one else, with a case where no
fraud could possibly have been intended. On the same
ground the justice, or at all events the fairness, of inflict-
ing a fine, however small, appears to me very question-
able. Every facility and courtesy was shown to me on
the part of the local authorities."
A case of over entry has thus been described by a
house of the very highest standing in the City :
"C. The amount overpaid on goods entered by
the Belfast from Calais, in June, 1843, was 31. 9s. 4d."
":The demand for this was duly left at the Registrar's
office in the same month of June, and in the month of
August following, the merchant had to go down to the
Custom-house Long-room to sign the book, when the
certificate was handed over by the clerk, that being the
earliest day it could be had after being left. From
thence he had to go to a private room at the Treasury,
whore a ticket was given which had then to be taken to
the cashier at the Treasury, and the money was at
length paid after a delay of eight weeks. This was our
last case, as the goods here alluded to have since become
free.

We could, howe►er, particularize many cases where
from is. to 10s. was overpaid, but the delay and diffi-
culty consequent on any attempt to recover it was known
to be so great that it was abandoned, choosing rather to
suffer the loss than to incur the trouble, as the Custom-
house authorities would compel the personal attendance
of the merchant to sign the book before the money was
returned. _

A case of erroneous delivery by the Customs is now
given, the fear of costs makes the aggrieved party sub-
mit rather than claim his right.
"C. 4. Some; few years since I bonded a parcel of
clover seed. When application was made to deliver the
seed on payment of the duty, the parcel was found
ltbhyough it was left under
seed,stk
the Custom locker.
Iconsequently
the Customs' care. To make the matter worse, I was
called upon by the collector to pay the duty on the seed,
and although I represented to him the hardship of losing
the seed, and that I could get nothing allowed for the
o
loss by the owner of the warehouse, I was threatened
t beenbedelivered
bag
deficient,
lostn
thea missing bag no doubt had
with law proceedings if the duty was not immediately
paid. I then represented to the collector the propriety
of applying to those parties for the duty who had given
bond for the warehouse, but this was of no avail; he
was as obstinate as ever, and still threatened me with
law proceedings, to avoid which I considered it prudent
to pay the duty, and avoid any further unpleasantness.
My clerk, in the usual manner, passed his entries, and
tendered the current duty, which was at the time 10s.
per cwt. This was refused, and duty demanded at the
rate of 20s. per cwt., the amount payable at the time
the seed was bonded: and this imposition I was
obliged to submit to, in order to save any further annoy-
ance and expense."

The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have re-
ceived letters, dated Mexico, the 3rd ult., from Mr.
Brenan, the gentleman in charge of the interests of the
Bondholders in Mexico during Mr. Falconnot's absence,
announcing the several, amounts which have come for-
ward from the Custom-houses, in conformity with the
arrangements entered into between Mr. Falconnet and
the Mexican Government, and handing a copy of the
communication from the Finance Minister of Mexico,
notifying officially to the Treasury at Washington the
assignment of the last 280,000 dollars in addition to the
former assignment for the 2,500,000 dollars.
At Amsterdam on the 17th inst. the Stook Market
was not quite so good either for home or foreign invest-
ments.

The llamburgh quotation for bills on London was
last Tuesday 13,7, being steady. Coffee was quiet and
grain very flat.
