SPIRIT MAIIKET.

There is not anything particularly reviving in any descrip-
tion of Spirits. Rum is firm ; proof Leewards are worth
2s. lod. British Corn Spirits are still los. 2d. per gallon.
Brandy and Geneva are without variation.
TALLOW MARKET.
_ _

P. Y. C. to-day may be quoted at 48s. 6d. both ways.
More money is asked but not obtained.

METAL MARKET.
The only novelty in this market is a rise of 2d. per lb. on
Quicksilver, owing to some large parcels having been sold at
3s. 6d. The price now is 3s. Scl. per lb.
COLONIAL MARKETS.
There was but very little done to-day in these markets.
B. P. Sugar sells slowly, and prices are unaltered from those
of yesterday. Brown, 48s. 6d. to 51s. 6d. ; Yellow low to
good, 525. 6d. to 595. ; fine, 60s. to 625. 6d. Refined is
335. 6d. for fine crushed. Coffee, 50 casks B. P. by public
sale, were advertised, and 100 bags Trinidad Cocoa, but
both were withdrawn, so that in fact there was not a public
sale to-day. By private contract there is next to nothing
doing. Altogether, the market is very lifeless. There
is nothing doing just now in the Tea trade. The Imports
generally are heavy. For to-morrow we have public sales of
Saltpetre, 1,000 bags; Rice, 1,300 bags; Ginger, 2,000 bags
Bengal ; Coffee, 140 bags 6 casks Jamaica. Some Barba-
does and Bengal Sugar, but of each very small quantities.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUG. 29.
We hare no alteration to report either as regards the de.
mand or value of Cotton. The sales affected were few,
barely 2,000 bags having met with purchasers, and our last
quotations remain unchanged. 40 Bahia, Bid. ; 40 Pernam,
9d. ; 1,920 American, sid. 7-id. Total, 2,000.

FUTURE SITTINGS OF THE INSOLVENT COURT.
—By the 29th section of the Imprisonment for Debt Act, it
is enacted that the Court for the Relief of Insolvent Debtors
shall sit for the despatch of business twice at least in every
week throughout the year, and one or more of the said Corn-
missioners shall attend for that purpose ; and provides that,
from and after the expiration of six weeks from the last day
of Trinity Term, until the first day of November in every year,
the said Court shall have full power and authority to regulate
and appoint the sittings of the said Court, at such times as to
the said Court shall appear fit and necessary for the due admi-
nistration of justice in the said Court; and that no adjourn-
ment of the said Court, during the period aforesaid, shall be at
any time for more than six weeks.

Yesterday afternoon an inquest was held at St.
George's Hospital, before Mr. Higgs, on view of the body of
John Laingston, aged 45, who died in consequence of an injury
in the ribs which he sustained from a bullock suddenly spring-
ing upon him while he was assisting his employer (Mr. William
Sewell, of Portland-town) to slaughter the animal on Friday
last. The bullock was fastened down in the usual manner,
and deceased was perfectly acquainted with his business ; be
was sober at the time, and bore an excellent character.__
Verdict, " Accidental Death," with a deodand of one shilling
on the bullock.

CAUTION TO ARTISTS.—The Treasurer to the
Society of the British Artists requests us to apprise the publ-c
that a sturdy beggar, and most impudent impostor, is going
about seeking whose shillings he may pocket. The fellow
represents himself to be an engraver out of, but most
to, work.
