SEEDS...
„ We have a steady demand for the best qualities of clover • 207
ceed, at very full prices. All other kinds are a slow sale.
f"linseed very little is doing, and East India has sold at
ro
!e, 50s to 514 per quarter. Most other seeds command
Y little attention. Rape-capes are rather dearer. Lin-
seed qualities are held at full currencies.

ANCE SOCIETY.—The annual general meeting of this
society was held at the offices, 26, Lincoln's-inn-Fields,
on Friday, the 11th instant,—George Lake Russell,
Esq., in the chair. It appeared, by the report of the
directors, that 4,3171. 7s. 7d. had been received for new
premiums on assurances in 1852 ; that the expences of
management had been diminished, while the losses by
death was 2,0001. below those of the preceding year. and
less by upwards of 1,6001. than the amount received for

ing directors and auditors were re-elected.
LEICESTER, MARCH 10.—The confidence felt by many
manufacturers, that the present advanced rates both of
worsted and cotton will be maintained, keeps employ-
ment plentiful. There is a fair business doing in the

demand for cotton hose is very extelsive

BALLS AND LEVEES IN DUBLIN.

Mr. FRENCH wished to ask the Secretary of the
Treasury, if directions had been sent to Ireland by any
Government authority in this country, to discontinue
the expense of inserting in the Dublin newspapers the
usual notice of levees about to be held by the Lord-
Lieutenant.
Mr. WILSON said it was time that such directions
had been given, for in a bill for advertisements sent into
the late Government, it was found that while 3181.
was charged for advertising balls and levees, only about
101. was charged for advertising matters connected with
the castle of public utility.
NAVAL COMMITTEE.

Capt. SCOBELL wished to ask Sir J. Graham, when
it is probable that the report of the Naval Committee, ap-
pointed by the late Board of Admiralty, will be laid on
the table of the house.
Sir J. GRAHAM hoped to be able to lay the report
on the table immediately after Easter.
COPPER COINAGE.

Mr. GLYN wished to ask the Secretary of the Trea-
sury whether any steps had been taken to secure a suffi-
cient supply of the copper coinage.
Mr. WILSON said the demand for gold and silver
was so great that the Mint could devote no attention at
present to copper coinage, but the Master of the Mint
was about to contract with private parties for the coin-
ing of five tons of copper.

PRUSSIA.

The following, according toa German paper, is the
present state of the Austrian navy :-6 frigates
carrying 215 guns ; 5 corvettes, 92 ; 7 brigs, 112
guns ; 6 schooners, 58 guns ; 2 prams, 20 guns ;
1 gun-boat, 10 guns ; 34 pinnaces, 102 guns ; 18
sloops, 60 guns ; 5 schooner-brigs, 12 guns ; 11
steamers, 64 guns, and 9 trabacolis.

It is stated here, in well-informed quarters, that
the Prussian Government has transmitted instruc-
tions to its envoy at London to announce to Lord
Clarendon that it fully participates in the view
taken by the British Cabinet on the Turkish
question.
Intelligence has reached Berlin of a melancholy
catastrophe, occasioned by the sudden breaking-up
of the ice on the Vistula, at Thorn, on the 6th
inst. It appears that at the moment some
150 workmen were employed in removing the
bridge, when the ice rushed bodily forward, over-
whelmed many of the floats, and carried away
some 50 men, of whom about 20 instantly disap-
peared beneath the frozen masses.
The Augsburg Gazette announces a ‘4 Congress
of Sovereigns," which will take place at Berlin on
the 30th inst. The first conference will include
the Emperors of Austria and Russia and the King
of Prussia. Early in April they will ask the con-
currence of the Germanic Confederation, the King
sove-
reigns, in reference to Italy. and other of Holland, the King of Belgium,

SURREY SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before Thomas Puckle, Esq., and a Bench of Magis-

trates.)
EXPERT ROBBERY OF BANK NOTES.
, Daniel Fitzgerald, 19, was indicted for stealing from
the person of Elizabeth Fisher two ten-pound Bank of
England notes and two five-pound Bank of England
notes, in her dwelling-house ; and Mary Sullivan, 19,
was indicted for receiving one of the ten-pound notes,
well knowing it to be stolen.
From the evidence it appeared that Mrs. Fisher and
her brother are dealers in paper-hangings and decorators
in the Dover-road, and the prisoner entered the shop
during the absence of the latter, and requested to be
shown some cheap paper. While she was exhibiting
some pieces to him he stood alongside of her, and after
remaining in the shop a few minutes he said he wished
to see Mr. Fisher, and he would return shortly, at the
same time quitting the shop. A few minutes prior to his
entering the shop she had deposited the notes in a side
pocket of her dress which was nearest to the prisoner,
and a few minutes after he had left, she put her hand to
her pocket to lock the money up in a safe place, when
she missed it. No other person had been in the shop
from the time she placed the notes in her pocket up to
the time of her losing them but the prisoner. Informa-
tion was immediately given to the police, and all the
notes were in a few days traced to different tradesmen at
the east end of the town ; and it was proved that the
prisoner had purchased new clothing, a watch, furniture,
and other things with them—and the female was in his
company when one of the notes was changed. They
were shortly afterwards apprehended at a low house in
Cock and Neptune-court, Ratcliffe-highway, and the
new clothes, watch, and other things were found. The
notes were passed into the Bank in the usual way, and
produced by one of the Bank clerks, when they were
identified as those stolen from Mrs. Fisher. There was
nothing to show that the female had anything to do with
the robbery, consequently the jury acquitted her, but
found the "slate prisoner guilty.
The Court sentenced him to nine months' hard labour
in the Wandsworth House of Correction.

POSTAL ERRORS.—Gratis on application, or
post free for two stamps, a Review of the Division of "Watkins's

probably never equalled in any work on the same stioject.

SEEDS.

---- ---
We have a steady demand for the best qualities of clover
seed, at very full prices. All other kinds are a slow sale.
In linseed very little is doing, and East India has sold at
from 50s to 51s per quarter. Most other seeds command
very little attention. Rape-capes are rather dearer. Lin-
seed qualities are held at full currencies.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH-JAN. 18.
COOKERELL V. GUNTER.

This was a special case, the facts of which were as fol-
lows :—A vessel bound upon her voyage was obliged to
go, by stress of weather, out of her due course • she was
dragging her cables, and for the preservation of the lives
of the crew, the captain ran her into the tidal harbdur
of Sawn, near Calais, at low water. She touched
the ground, and finally settled on the mud, in such a
manner that she was only lifted from her position
at extraordinary high tides. She remained in the predi-
cament for about two months. The question was—
whether this was a " stranding" within the clauses of
the policy of insurance, or a mere "taking the ground "
in the ordinary course of navigation.
Lord Campbell said that he was of opinion that this
was a "standing " within the meaning of the memoran-
dum upon the policy of insurance ; and the other judges
concurring, judgment was given accordingly for the

ANTI-STATE OHUROH ASSOCIATION.

A public meeting of this association—the first of as
series of four—was held yesterday evening at the Educs
tional Institute, 58, Aldersgate-street ; Mr. E. Clarke
the chair. The Chairman observed that the associatii yn
embraced persons of all creeds, and all sections of t: be
Christian world. What was taking place in the est'a-
blished church aided their exertions, and they must h; ul
even the Bishop of Exeter as one of the clergy who Iv sd
done them great and good service. They looked I 'or
results in the justice of their cause, and believed the go od
of the community to be involved in their success. ILa
address was then delivered by Mr. John Kingsley .on
"The Ecclesiastical Events of 1852." In the course ,of
his remarks he observed that it was satisfactory to kncrif
that 1852 had had its ecclesiastical events. Sufficie ut
had occurred to prevent an abatement of public inter est
in the question. The object which they aimed at hai Lat
length emerged from obscurity, and it was on all ha ads
beginning to be regarded as a possible, if not the
only possible attempt to readjust the claims of
the secular and the spiritual, in our patchwork
constitution. He then commented upon the case of
Mr. Whiston, as causing, in the result, a tendency
in the right direction ; the sinecurism of the Rev.
NJTx-
Moore, as a striking example of the abuses of the State
church ; the appointment of the Rev. Mr. Bennett to fbe
vicarage of Frome, as a gross violation of the conscienoes
and religious liberties of the inhabitants ; while the to rn
which the discussion took in Parliament showed the -at-
ter incompetency of the Legislature to deal with religi-
ous questions ; the partially-successful attempt -to pro'
tract the sittings of Convocation for the transaction of
business, and thus to recover advantages of which the
church had been deprived by her connexion with the
State ; the history and character of Mr. Gladstone's Co.
lonial Bill ; the Maynooth grant, &c,—all th ese being
regraded as affording either evidences of progress or rea-
sons for aiming at a total separation of Church a ad State.
The speaker, in his concluding remarks, quoted a pas'
sage from a speech of Lord Falkland, in the :reign of
Charles 1., in which the prelates of that day T 1 sere de-
scribed as wishing to set up a Popery distinct frt.in that
of Rome, yet the same in spirit ; and he contend( 3d that
this was a true portraiture of the high churchmen of the
present day, though there was little probability of society,
as now constituted, allowing them to set up a spirituel
despotism.
A discussion followed, which was entirely in accord'
ante with the foregoing ' • and a vote of thanks was given'
to Mr. Kingsley for his address.

MR. NAPIER AND THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT.—WO
have heard a report to the effect that Mr. Napier, the
eminent ship-builder of the Clyde, recently received an
order to build six first-class steam-frigates. Discovering,
on inquiry, that the order had emanated from the French
Government, he thought it necessary to communicate
the fact to the Admiralty, leaving it to them to decide
whether he should decline or accept the offer. He was
advised by the Admiralty not to do so, and as a quid pro
quo for the loss of the order, received a commission to
build six similar vessels to those ordered by the French
Government—Liverpool Albion.

THE CURE OF STRICTURE OF THE URETHRA, on Princi-
ples at once Simple, Safe, and Efficient, In even its most Inveterate
and apparently Intractable Forms.
BY F. B. COURTENAY,
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
"In proof of his views he (Mr. Courtenay) has given
he history of a great many cases successfully treated, as bad
as any which Mr. $: yme adduced, and on which he had operated.
Such are cases ix., xi., xii., and xviii. No. ix. had resisted, for a
period of twelve years, the treatment by dilitation, and was finally
removed in as many weeks. But cases xviii. and xix. appear, both
in duration, severity, and complication of symptoms, of a more ag-
gravated character than any detailed by Mr. syme, and yet th 3
treatment adopted by Mr. Courtenay proved eminently saocessfu'."

TOBACCO.—The market continues very inactive, with
heavy supplies.
MONDAY, Noon, Dec. 27.—Since the publication of
the foregoing on the 21st, this market has presented no
appearance of activity whatever. At the same time im-
portations, especially of flour and meal, have been rather
extensive, but it is not anticipated that any important
decline will take place in prices. Holders evince no
anxiety to realise, and this circumstance, together with
the enhanced value of goods at places of shipment, will
contribute additional firmness to our market, and serve
to uphold our previous quotations.
Of flour, the only operations which have been effected
are re-sales of 700 barrels Baltimore, and 250 barrels
Philadelphia at 325. fid. per barrel.
Produce is also quiet, but we notice a further decline
in the value of the lower grades of sugar, which is attri-
butable chiefly to the increased supply of inferior de-
scriptions.

SPAIN.

We have received the Madrid journals of the
13th. 'The _Herald() has a long article in which,
after blaming in severe language the conduct of the
Government' towards Marshal Narvaez, it says :
"Is it extraordinary that the Duke of Valencia,
having been made the object of the unjustifiable
measure which had been adopted towards him,
should have protested against it with vigour and
energy Y We think that no one will be astonished
at it, and particularly if two things are considered.
The first is, that documents like that signed by the
General, although addressed under an official
form to an august personage, whom every one
respects, are in reality directed against the re-
sponsible advisers of an inviolable and sacred
institution • and the second is, that if this docu-
ment was distributed clandestinely, the Duke of
Valencia ought not to be responsible for it." A.
deputation of the directors of the Opposition had
had an interview with the Minister of the Interior.
The latter expressed his regret at the present con-
dition of the periodical press, but observed that it
was not the present Ministry who had made the
laws which had led to that disastrous condition,
and it had not the power to do all that might be
wished in its favour ; he added, however, that
orders had been given to avoid all unnecessary
rigour. The deputation left the Minister little
Satisfied at the vagueness of his reply to their re-
monstrances.
The Heraldo has also published an article, sup-
porting the demand of the holders of coupons to
have them entirely converted into 3 per Cent. De-
ferred Stock, instead of remaining reduced one-
half as they have been. The Herald() says that
the claim is not only just in itself, but, if granted,
would open the principal money-markets of Europe
to Spanish stock, and would enable the Govern-
gdraet meetings,sewhichiss
Govern-
ment to convert great part of its floating debt,
