MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(THIS DAY.)

COLONIAL MARKETS.

There are scarcely any parties that do business in these
markets in town to-day. The holidays are kept up, and there
will be no public sales until Thursday, and then but two, and
those insignificant, they being small parcels of mahogany,
hemp, and flax. The chief commodity now advertised for
public sale is indigo, but these sales do not commence until
this day week. The recent news from Calcutta, which states
that the crop will be much larger than previouly given
out; has necessarily had the effect of depressing the
market, anal these approaching sales must feel it. The
British plantation Sugar Market is closed till this day
week.• Under the circumstances we have now stated, there is
no variation in prices of Colonial produce. There are
reasons for expecting a very good business will be done in
Colonial produce at the beginning of the new Year.
PROVISION MARKET. .

There is scarcely anything doing in this market, and prices
are generally much as they were last week. The stocks are
not heavy, except those of Bacon and Butter.
COAL MARKET. _ _ _

This is the day for reporting the Coal Market, but owing
to yesterday being Christmas day there was no Market.
TALLOW MARKET.
P. Y. C. to-day is quoted the same as it was on Saturday,
viz.-455. to 45.;. 3d.
BILLINGSGATE MARKET.
Fish to dry of all kinds was in short supply—this, added to
the festivities of the season, made prices high. There were
some fine turbot as high as 30s. each, and some very large cod
as high as 20s. each; soles 9d. to 2s. per pair; lobsters 9d.
Is. 6d. to 2s. each ; no haddock worth notice.
HUNGERFORD MARKET.

There is nothing to-day worth reporting in any department
of this market. Prices generally are high, as they are every-
where at this season for everything, and much as they were
for fish, flesh, game, and vegetables ; but very little business
doing.

We understand Lord John Russell has directed
circulars to be transmitted to the different Clerks of the
Peace, with instructions from his Lordship that in future they
shall not, by themselves or partners, act as political agent: ;
placing them in this respect on the same footing as Sheriff
Clerks and Procurators Fiscal.-- Caledonian Mercury.

On Friday last about 150 gentlemen of the Upper
Ward entertained the Hon. C. A. Murray at dinner at
Lanark. Mr. Lockhart, of Castlohill and Cambusnethan,
took the chair; and Captain Mossman of A uchtyfardle, Mr.
Baillie of Culterallers, and Mr. Brown of Orchard, acted as
croupiers. The evening passed in great harmony:—Glasgow

MARSIIALSEA PRISON.—His Grace the Duke
of Argyll, as Lord Steward of her Majesty's household,
having been kindly pleased to forward to J. Rutland, Esq.,
the Deputy Marshal, his usual munificent Christmas dona-
tion, the same was distributed yesterday morning, each debtor
receiving a plentiful supply of beef, bread, and porter, with
one shilling in money. His Grace's bounty was most thank-
fully received, and gratefully acknowledged by all.
Cmsar G. Otway, Esq.; Jelinger G. Symons, Esq.;
W. A. Miles, Esq.; and Richard M. Muggeride, Esq., have
been appointed by the Commissioners of Hand-loom Inquiry
as assistant commissioners of their investigation.

CHARITABLE BEQUESTS.--It appears by the last
will and testament of Mr. Charles Stevens, late of Compton-
street, Clerkenwell, and formerly of Tunbridge Wells, who
died on the 2d of November last, that he has bequeathed the
large sum of 2,700/., Three per Cent. Consols, to the follow-
