HULL-TUESDAY.

The wheat trade during the past few days has been de-
cidedly firmer. At to-day's corn market there was a small
supply of new English wheat, which was taken off by local
millers at fully the prices of last week. Foreign was firm
at late rates. A good inquiry for grinding barley at rather
less money than last Tuesdey. Beans oats, and peas were
each at last week's prices. Sales in linseed limited, and at
rates in favour of buyers.

THE EMPEROR'S VALET:

Jean Noel Santini, the Emperor's valet, was of humble
parentage, and was born in a poor little hamlet in the arron-
dissement of Bastia, in Corsica, in the year 1790. Having
no example before him in childhood but that of the rough
and bold mountaineers of his country, and the triumphal
songs of the Grand Army—the echoes of which reached the
thatched roof of his parents--being his only lullaby—
Santini was proud, like every son of Corsica, to be the
countryman of the conqueror of Italy—of the hero whose
name filled the world. He thought of nothing save battles
and Bonaparte; and, instead of waiting till he had attained
the age required by law to draw for the conscription,
the enthusiastic lad was admitted in 1801 as drummer
to a battalion of Corsican sharpsho eters, then in garri-
son at Antibes. The boy's golden dream—his daily hope
—was to see Napoleon : to hear the cannon roar, and balls
whistle—but to see Napoleon above all. The hope was
soon to be realised. The command of the battalion had
lately passed into the hands of the Count d'Ornano, and
the sharpshooters were now ordered to assemble under the
standard of the First Consul at Ambleteuse. Santini was
happy, his ambition was achievA his dream became
reality.
THE EMPEROR'S PRIVATIONS AT ST. HELENA.

Time passed on, bat brought no change to the exiles of
Saint Helena. Santini still continued his thefts of wild
sheep and sucking pigs, but for which the Emperor would
have been often dinnerless. The clothes and shoes of
Napoleon, too, were no longer wearable—in fact,
his wardrobe was in such a dilapidated condition that
Santini, who was not a bit better tailor than he was hair-
dresser, was obliged to cut up an old grey redingote of his
master's, in order to make it into a coat, In the same way,
ho turned an old pair of boots into a pair of shoes, lining
them with some pieces of white satin given him for the pur-
pose by Madame Bertrand. There is also a hat, now in the
possession of Count Marchand, which was trimmed by San-
tini with satin coming from the same source. This sort of
life became insupportable ; and the Emperor was at last
compelled to part with all his silver plate, which was broken
up by Santini in the presence of General Montholon, and
was then sold at James Town. " I will not have my eagles
sent to market, mountaineer," said the Emperor to San-
tini ; " destroy my cipher completely, break everthing into
the smallest fragments, so that the noble emblems of the
French Empire may not become objects of traffic to our
enemies,"

SHOTLIFTING.—AN AMATEUR POLICE CONSTABLE.
William Wadly, Richard Parker, and Elizabeth Smith,
three well•known thieves, were brought before M. Wool-
rych, charged with stealing a large roll of cloth, valued at
two guineas, the property of Mr. David Thomas, No. 3,
Crisp-street, Poplar,
On Saturday night a respectable man, named Williams,
a wheelwright, met the prisoners in the neighbourhood of
the East India-road, Poplar. One of them was carrying a
roll of cloth. Williams immediately suspected the cloth
was stolen, and followed the prisoners, and kept them in
view until he met with a police-constable, when he gave all
three into custody, and assisted in securing them and taking
care of the property. The roll of cloth was identified
by Mr. David Thomas, from whose shop door it was
stolen a few minutes before Williams met with the prisoners.

and lawful to be wroth on account of injustice done
to a silent friend. But these are usually occcasions
on which the silence of the friend is compulsory.
Otherwise, the friend himself is the proper person
to tell us whether his language has been miscon-
strued or no. The question at issue can hardly be
said to be, what meaning is to be placed on Mr.
Bright's language. That is a matter purely of opi-
nion. The Times thinks one thing; Mr. Cobden
thinks another. The truth, we may well imagine,
lies somewhere between the two. The real question
here is whether, on so slender provocation, Mr.
Cobden has a right to fling aside all ordinary con-
ventional restraints, and to attack the editor of a
newspaper—it may almost be said by name—in a
most extraordinary and unjustifiable manner. We
regret the whole matter for the sake of Mr. Cobden
himself. The journals who published his diatribe
did not consult the best interests of Mr. Cobden or
of progress. Mr. Cobden is too great a man; he
has done too much service to the country and indeed
to the world for any one to find gratification in such
a scene. It is on many grounds deplorable, and
most deplorable perhaps because it exhibits the un-
happy gulf that divides the different sections of the
Liberal party. The only particle of apology we
can find for Mr. Cobden in the matter is the warmth
of his feeling for Mr. Bright's reputation. Sym-
pathy for a friend's reputation may, however, be
(tarried too far. In this case, we fear, it has led Mr.
Cobden into an indiscretion which will seriously
damage his own.
ECONOMIST.—To abolish the anonymous is to
destroy its influence, to destroy its influence is to
hand the whole press over to the ideologues; and we
may warn Mr. Cobden it is not his ideas which they
will strive to advance. At the same time, perfect
secrecy would be most`prejudicial to the true value
of English journals, for it would shut up the very
best channels of information. Editors cannot write
beneficially without data, and data can only be ob-
tained from the men who really guide events.
Suppose no editor in England really knew the view
of the British Cabinet upon this Schleswig and
Holstein affair, how could they either stir up the
people to support or resist its action ? They would
either have to strike in the dark, so making inex-
tricable confusion between the country and its
governing men, or to dictate the course the Cabinet
must follow—that is, in fact, to assume the reins
themselves, and, as editors did in France, under
Louis Philippe, and do in American now, initiate a
policy of their own. They must, to be efficient,
ascertain the truth, and responsible statesmen will
not communicate information to invisible persons.
They must know more or less the individuals they
are trusting, and thus the very practice Mr. Cob-
den assails so bitterly—secrecy to the public and
non-secrecy to the Administration—has arisen for
Ithe general benefit of all.

BOROUGH HOP.

The supply of hops on sale is very moderate. Prices of
all descriptions are well supported, but the demand for
inferior produce is by no means active. Last week's im-
port amounted to 106 bales from Dunkirk, 66 from Ham-
burg, 92 Ostend, 303 Boulogne, 23? Antwerp, 23 Rotter-
dam, 72 Bremen, 50 New York, and 22 from Boston.
