CORN-LAW AGITATION.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
I rejoice to see the able and just remarks upon Thy
Corn-laws, which have lately so frequently appeared in
Sun, and which have, I believe, already produced a powert
effoct upon the country. Vfiwards of twenty years connesi.ur
with the trade has given me full OTportunity of observing Wu_
effects of the present system, and I have ;:o hesitation in Prf.
nouncing the British Corn-laws a disgrace to a civilized cow
;munity. As the natural result of a selfish and so,'"did Policy
they are an injury to the landholders themselves; the; area
still greater injury to their tenants, most of whom are infatuisb!,,
enough to suppose that ihey are enacted for• their benen
They are, however, Q much greater injury to the trading
commercial interests of this country, and if they are not sho
rtlf
abolished, it is to be feared, will undermine all our nationZ
advantages in this respect ; but most of all, and above all,
cruel monopoly oppresses the labouring and industrious class?,
Indeed, this heavy impost upon the poor man's means of sup
sistence, is equally inconsistent with the dictates of sound P°'
a
licy, justice, and humanity. I trust the true friends of the_
people will not for a moment listen to any half measures, 11.
neither ask for, nor accept anything less than its total aib°l,'°
don. I observe a part of the Press, which claims to be con'
dered liberal in its views, proposes an extravagant filed duty
upon foreign grain, instead of the present system, °n the
ground that the payment of the interest of the national debt
requires it ; but may we not ask what part of the interest of
the national debt do the landowners, as such, pay? On the
contrary, are they not unfairly exempted from their just share
of this tax, by throwing it upon those
who are at the same time
very heavily encumbered to maintain their monopoly.
C. P. Villiers, M. P. has given notice of a motion early
next Session, for the abolition of the Corn-laws. To bring
the public feeling properly to bear in his support, a well-orp;
nized and general plan of obtaining the expression of it, should
be acted upon, and I think some of us should contribute aid al,
money, who cannot devote time to this object. In the
that others will do the same, I beg to
offer twenty pounds
from the firm of Joseph and Charles Sturge, in aid of a getter-.-
effort for the total abolition of the tax upon Corn.
I am very respectfully,
JOSEPH STURG•

THE SOULT AND WELLINGTON

EXCHANGE Rooras, NEN;CASTLE-UPON -TYNE. SEPTEN--
ETA 8. —Although the " Coronation," or " Golden Sim,"
with a medallion pertrait of the Queen—which all admit ter
be a beautiful likeness of her Al,,j,sry—was the subject of uni-
versal praise and admiration hrre on its first appearrrnee, it
has somehow happened that we are rather late in noticing a
oluction which does honour dike to the sit of engraving
as well as to that of printing. The st.bsequent splendid en-
grasings, in the same noble style, of the two great warriors,
WELONGTON and SOULT, furnished through :11r. Young, the
spirited proprietor of the far-famed ~Sun. have also given the
glcatest satisfaction to the public, the 1,k,-resses being so ac-
curate, and tl:e whole appearance of the engraving of so truly
f,seinating an ore.er. As literacy curiosities, showing the
brilliancy of the art to which the newspaper press has attained
in this country, thcsa two impressions of The Sun /Afford,
indeed, splendid instances. In older to preserve so pleasing
a memento of the auspicious events that took place in the
current year, a great many prsons have framed these
medaliions and hung them in their lihrwies. &c., where, no
doubt, they will long remain to be admired by all who have
any pretensions to taste.

TIIE WEATHER IN THE NORTH.—We have had
another touch of winter. Our surrounding hills, on Tuesday
last suddenly resumed their garb of snow. The fall of snow
to the north of Kendal has been very great, greater, indeed,
than at any previous period of the winter. The mail from
the north, which is due in the morning about seven o'clock,
stuck fast on Thursday morning last in a snow-drift, near For-
rest Hall, and did not reach Kendall till four hour.; after its
time. The mail which follows it, at an interval of about four
hours, came in at its usual time, avoiding the luckless spot by
taking a part of the old road, For several nights past the mails
to anci from the north have bad silt horses.—Kendal Mercury.

COLONIAL MARKETS.

To-clay the public sales were rather heavy, consisting of 4,655 bags
of Mauritius Sugar, 6,037 of White Siam, 1,800 Bengal, and 1,000
Manilla. At the closa of last week the tendency to decline was
ehecked, and in some instances higher priees rather were given. The
quantity to-clay being so considerable all was not sold, still when we
left the Market, former firmer pikes ruled. Of Coffee we had 500 bags
Brazil, 300 of East India, and 110 bales of Mocha. The Coffee Market
was firmer also, but all did not sell ; still there appears to us to be a better
disposition to purchase than there has been of late. British Plantation
Sugar sells better at former and firmer prices. Rice and Spices we
quote much as before. It appears now as if these Markets were taking
rather a turn for the better to the sellers. For to-morrow, the sales
are rather of a miscellaneous character, with but little Groceries com-
paratively. Refined Sugar is now quoted at 355. 6d.

TALLOW CANDLES.

A Sample of the Candles, and a Form of the Tender may be
seen at the said Office.
No Tender will be received after one o'clock, on the day of
Treaty, nor any noticed, unless the Party attends, or an Agent for
him duly authorized in writing.
Every Tender must be addressed to the Secretary of the Admi-
ralty, and bear in the left hand corner the words " Tender for
Candles," and must also be delivered at Somerset-place, accompa-
nied by a Letter signed by a responsible person, engaging to be-
come bound with the person tendering, in the sum of 200/. for the
due performance of the Contract.

Mr. BUItNET said we have addressed Lord Melbourne before, and our
memorial, in those terms, has been accepted.—(Hear.)
The adoption of the Memorial was moved by Mr. Bowuzv, and se-
conded by Mr. CLartiam, of Leeds.
Mr. liNrour suggested that the tnemorial should include a state-
ment that the marketable value of the whole of the West Indian
slaves did not amount to 15,000,0001. sterling.—(Hear, hear, hear.)
A Mr. ELLIS said a Member of Parliament had asked him what pro-
vision was to be made for the aged and infirm negrees, provided the
Abolitionists succeeded ?

Mr. MMLEY said no provision need he made any more for the negroes
than already existed for the whites.—(Hear, hear.)
A GENTLEMAN said th,, strong and hardy among the negroes would
provide for the aged and infirm.—(llear, hear.)
The Rev. J. H. HtNTON, M.A., suggested that the Memorial should
be presented to Lords Melbourne and Glenelg, which was agreed to.
After some verbal amendments had been agreed to it was announced
that the Deputation had returned from the interview with Lords Mel-
bourne and Glenelg.

A Member of the Deputation stated that they had been received with
touch frankness and courtesy, and afire d to receive a deputation of
not more than 400 delegates—(A laugh)—at three o'clock to.morrnw.
Mr. JOSIAH FOSTER stated that a petition from the Committee in
Aldermanbury, would be presented this evening in both Houses of
Pa:listment, the signatures were headed with that of I'c:well Buxton.
Dr. GauvicLE moved, and Mr. Sea RILLS seconded a resolution condem-
natory cf the apprnprbtion system, &c., and was carried unanimously.
Thanks were then voted to the chairman, and the Committee ad-
journed till Twelve o'Clcck to-morrow.

MILL.

The Committee met this morning at eleven o'clock.
Edward Stephenson was the first objection gone into. It
appeared from the evidence of Thomas Padlev, that the vote:
told him be had received two sovereigns for his vote from Mr.
Charles Hammond.—Vote struck off.

William Cooper, of Stoneferry, was next obj,cted to.
T:iomas A.lamsol deposed, that the voter had died since the
last election—that in the course of conversation with him in
September last, he stated that he had received a suit of clothes
and is. from Mr. Charles Hammond, to vote for the Blues.
Vote struck off.

The vote of John Savage was next objected to on the
ground of his having received a bribe from Mr. Dryden,
solicitor. The voter was examined at great length, as to a
tra►saction which had taken place about the time of the elec-
tion in 1835, when the voter being in difficulties, came in con-
tact with Mr. Dryden, who paid the amount of his debt and costs
taking a note for the amount. A few days before the late
election, the voter met Mr. Dryden in the street, and came to an
understanding with him that if he gave his vote for the B lues
he would hear no more of the Bill. Towards the latter plrt
of the year, however, a distress was put into his house, and his
goods were sold.

Mr. RoHit, clerk to Mr. Dryden, was then called, and con-
tradicted the voter in several statements which he had made.
The examination had not concluded at Four o'clock, when
the Committee adjourned.

SUDBURY ELECTION.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
MONDAY, MARCH 26.—Thc nomination for a representative
for this borough, in the room of Lieutenant-General Sir E.
Burnes, deceased, took place at the Town- Hall this morning,
at ten o'clock.

Sir John Walsh, who formerly represented this borough,
after several ineffectual attempts to obtain a scat in Parliament
elsewhere, again sought refuge in this immaculate borough,
immediately after the decease of Sir Edward.
No other candidate appearing, the poor freemen, on Satur-
day last, sent a deputation to London, inviting their old fa-
vourite representative, John Bac,bshaw, Esq., who immediately
complied with their request. Mr. Brazier Jones proposel, and
Mr. B. Oliver seconded, the nomination of Sir Jo!in Walsh.
Mr. Spooner proposed, and Mr. Edmunds secondel, the no-
mination of John Bagshaw, Esq.
The Mayor, W. Hurrell, Esq., took the show of Lan is for
each candidate, and declared the election was in favour of
John llagshaw, Esq., by a decided majority. A poll was de-
manded for Sir John Walsh ; and notwithstanding the in ijority
of the show of hands, the contest is expected to be ob tinate
and severe. Sir John Walsh, Ultra-Tory ; John Ba?shaw,
Esq., Liberal.

HAY MARKETS.

Thero was a good supply to.day generally, and the demand brisk
prices much as before. Meadow flay 88s. to 953. 100 e. and 1023.
Clover ditto 110$. to 1158. and 1225. ; Straw 40s. and 445.

Currants, and prices are firm.
TALLOW MARKET.
Not much doing, and P.Y.C. 565. 6d. on the spot.
WOOL MARKET.

MAIDSTONE ELECTION.

Yesterday the nomination of the candidates for the repre-
sentation of the borough of Maidstone, vacant by the de-
cease of Mr. Wyndham Lewis, took place at the Town Hall,
Maidstone.
At 12 o'clock, Thomas Pybus, Esq., the Mayor of Maid-
stone, proceeded to the hustings, accompanied by the gentle-
men who were to propose the respective candidates. Mr.
Robarts was not present.
TitomAs DAv, Esq., then stood forward, and proposed Mr.
Fector as a fit and proper person to represent the borough of
Maidstone in Parliament.—( Cheers. )
NIoNcxToN, Esq , seconded the proposition.
Alderman PRENTIS then stood forward to propose Mr. Ro-
barts. Mr. Robarts would be quite willing to remove all the
harsh clauses of the new Poor-law; he had ever been the
friend of the poor. He concluded by proposing Mr. Robarts.
Mr. RonEaT Coon t seconded the somination.
Mr. FECTOR then stood forward. He did not claim their
suffrages personally, but as the humble and sincere advocate
of a great cause. Ile was the advocate of good old English
principles.—( Cheers.) He came before them as a supporter
ofrthiceiPies•(
Protestant Constitution in Chuch and State.—( Cheers. )
The MAYOR having called for a show of hands, the numbers
appeared to be pretty equal, but the Mayor decided the ma-
jority to be in favour of Mr. Robarts. A poll was demanded
on behalf of Mr. Fector, which will commence this morning
at eight o'clock, and close at tour. It is expected the con-
test will be very severe.

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT.--A corresponden►,

lane, and comparing the same against the price of foreign sugars :
London, Sept. 28, 1638.
The Gazette this day quotes tho average price of British Per cwt.
Plantation Muscovado Sugar, exclusive of duty, at 29a. 2d.
Muscovado Sugars raised by free labour in the Manilla—
which are frequently bought by the Dutch to be refined,
and then to be resold in the River Thames—in competi.
tion with British refined Sugars for exportation—are
w.wth from 20s. to 235. per cwt. this week, being about
6s. 91 per cwt. less than the average price of West India
Sugars.
Refined Sugar, equal In quality to double refined (the manu-
facture of it costing ss. per cwt) has been sold this week
(free on board) at
Deducting shipping charges 2s. 2d. 31s. Id.
which is IE, I Id. per cwt dearer only than the Muscovado
Sugar from which it is made, being a loss to the sugar re-
finer of 3s. I d. per cwt., which the bounty on exportation
reimburses him.

British Treacle is worth 9s. per cwt. in the foreign markets. The
same has been sold this day in London, free ofduty, at 255. 6d. per cwt.,
being an excess of price paid by the British consumer of 16s. 6d, per
cat., in other words 16s. 6d, per cwt. on Treacle paid by the poor man
towards West India bounty, and not, as it is erroneously supposed, to.
wards revenue.

Coffee grown on a British Plantation is from 84s. to 90s, per cwt.
dearer than than the same Coffee would be had it been the produce of a
foreign colony—Lezause the duty on the former is only GI. per lb., while
on the latter the duty is I sd. per lb.

WALKER P. WOOLCOT AND OTHERS.

Mr. Platt stated that this action was brought to
recover damages for an illegal distress and trespass.
The plaintiff was a watch-case maker, and rented a
house in Gray's Inn-lane of the defendant Woolcott of
which the latter agreed to pay all rates and taxes, but when
the plaintiff claimed to deduct the amount of such rates
and taxes from the rent due to the defendant, N'Veolcott the
latter refused to allow the claim, and subsequently, with the
other defendants, in the absence of the plaintiff, entered
and took possession of the house, seized the plaintiff's tools,
&c., and afterwards sold them for about a fourth of their ♦alue,
in addition to which the defendant Woolcott had kept pos-
session of the house ever since. _ _

Several witnesses were examined, who proved the state-
ment made by the Learned Counsel.
Mr. Justice PATTISON summed up the evidence, and the
jury returned a verdict against the defendant Woolcott—
Damages, 201.1 and against the other defendants for 11., the
amount they had paid into Court.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Jix. 12.

Mr. Serjeant WILDE, in this case obtained, on behalf of the

SIUNT V. MOORE.

Mr. Sergeant Vilma moved for a new trial in this case, tried last
Sittings before Lord Chief Justice Tindal. The action had been brought
under these circumstances :—The plaintiff, a card manufacturer, in Lon-
don, had been in the habit of consigning large quantities of cards to the
defendant, Moore (auctioneer), who acted as his agent in Calcutta, and
who remitted the produce of his sales by bills drawn upon Alexander
and Co., bankers, in that city. Alexander and Co. having failed ten
days after a bill to a large amount had been drawn by Moore on them,
the bill was dishonoured, and the plaintiff' brought his action to reco-
ver the amogut from Moore. The Jury found for tie dofendant ; and
it was on the part of the plaintiff tiat the Learned Sergeant now moved.
itule for anew trial granted.

With the furniture, together with the outbuildings, planfe:

nti.me of Tatitir with his. daughters in the lodge, who '
lifkVing been lliiitij ydari ernfildy had lived there

Very kindly . continued him on the pretnises. A shoit time

requesting_ them to get another house as errly as.illey ton-
tenienq eptild, al he Wished td haie a man residing at the
gate. Finding they n'iade hh Efitlit; the reason Was asked,
when the answer given was that no one would let them a house.
as they were afraid of the rent; his Lordship offered to be-
Cbttie an§werahle for it 4, but it was no go; he then took a
for them, d ending in coals, &c,, for their use; but this
house was too small. " Then what house would suit them ?"
" Why, none but the lodge, which they were determined net
to leave; and if Lord S. hal any fUrther communications to
make, he must do it through their attorney, Mr. Cruikshanks,
of Gosport !"
It is supposed that some person has persuaded these foolish
women that as they have resided in the lodge above :10 years
(about 21) without paying any rent, the property becomes
theirs. If this should prove to be the law, we expect a great
many gentlemen will find their lodges, garden-houses, &c.,
longer their properry, but that of their servants.
