POSTAL DIRECTORY. ONE SHILLING.
Just published, the Supplement to the " Post Office London
Directory for 1849," which, in addition to the mere supplemental
matter, contains the " Postal " and " Parliamentary Directories
exactly as in the complete work. As the Supplement extends to
upwards of an hundred closely-printed Imperial Octavo pages, it is
sold at nearly the same proportionate price al the " Post Office
London Directory" itself, which, as stated in an able Review of the
book for the cur cut year, published in the " Times" on the 30th of
November last, "is necessarily a bulky volume ; but its bulk,
contrary to the general rule, is an advantage, and it may be said
to contain no superfluous pages whatever." The " Post Offiee Lon-
don Directory " is, beyond all comparison, the cheapest work which
is<ues from the p. ess, taking mere size into consideration, and
without reference to the various classifications, and other matters too
numerous to be detailed here. This Directory was characterized by
the " Examiner," of the 16th of December last, as a " perfect marvel
of arrangement, accuracy, and fulness of information." And the
" Morning Herald" of the 30th of the previous month, likewise re-
viewing the " Post Office London Directory for 1849," described it
as " an authoritative Directory of the capital of Great Britain,
laughing rivalry to scorn." The " Supplement" now published at
the price of one shilling, contains the " Postal Directory," furnish-
ing all the regu, ations of the Post Office as affecting the receipt and
dispatch of letters to the live thousand principal places throughout
the world, copious Money Order information, &c., &c., &c., and the
" Parliamentary Directory," likewise contained in this " Supple-
ment," furnishes the usual information with reference to Peers and
Members of the house of Commons.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
HULL, .A &

Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states—We have
again to report a large arrival of all kinds of grain. There has
been a fair consumptive demand for good-conditioned samples,
especially the better descriptions of red wheat, which are com-
paratively scarce. For this day's market our farmers brought
a moderate supply of wheat, which met a fair sale at about last
week's prices. For foreign of best quality we experienced a
good sale, and inferior descriptions were no worse; more dis-
position to go into stock. A better feeling for barley at our
last week's currency. No change in the value of any other
description of Spring corn. Only a small arrival of linseed,
and the market very firm. Linseed cakes unaltered. A parcel
of rapeseed has been sold at 281 per last. Rape cakes dull at
our quotations. Bones firm.

LIVERPOOL, AvalL 3.—Our supplies from Ireland and
coastwise during the last week have been on a more liberal
scale than of late ; and from foreign ports we have to note heavy
arrivals of wheat, Indian corn, beans, and flour. Our exports
in the same time show a decided increase, comprising 13,813
quarters of Indian corn and 8,133 barrels of flour. ' The de-
mand for wheat since Tuesday has been very limited, and Some
parcels in active ue t
of fine red, fresh arrived, havB 'been ltet-ge; ex ship," ion
rather easier terms. Indian corn continued reqs ,

and maintained its value. In other articles there was little
doing. At our market this morning there was a fair attend-
ance of the neighbouring millers and a liberal show of samples
of wheat and flour. A moderate business was done in wheat at
a reduction of fully ld per 701 b. on fine red Baltic wheats,
and 2d on inferior descriptions of Mediterranean. Oats and
oatmeal moved off slowly at about the prices of this day se'n-
night. In barley, beans, and peas there was little doing, and
we do not alter our quotations. Barrel flour did not meet with
a free sale, though offered at 23s per barrel. Sack flour must
be noted 6d to Is per sack lower. There were few buyers of
Indian corn in attendance to-day, and for fine yellow Is per
quarter less money would have been taken.
LEEDS, APRIL 3. We have a large supply of wheat to.day,
and a very dull market, and to make sales a slight reduction
in price from this day week must be submitted to. The best
qualities of barley are Is per quarter lower, and the inferior
descriptions quite neglected. Oats and beans dull sale at late
rates.
IPSWICH, Arum 3.
The sales made in wheat and barley to-day are with a little

MR. DUFFY'S CASE.

DEPUTATION TO LORD CLARENDON.
On Monday afternoon a deputation of gentlemen con-
nected with the representation of Ireland, and headed
by Sir Lucius O'Brien, waited, by appointment, on Lord
Clarendon, at the Irish-office, Great Queen-street, West-
minster, for the pUrpose of presenting to his Excellency,
as the representative in Ireland of her Gracious Majesty
the Queen, a memorial, signed by twenty-six Members
of Parliament, requesting him to consider the case of
Charles Gavan Duffy, lately tried for a political offence
in Dublin, and to order that all further proceedings
against the prisoner might be stayed.
Among the members of the deputation were Mr. F.
Scully. Mr. W. Fagan, Mr. Devereux, and Mr. Grogan
Morgan.
Sir Lucius O'BRIEN, having accounted for the com-
parative small number of members present by the short-
ness of the notice, to meet his Excellency, proceeded to
state the principal points of the memorial. It repre-
sented that evidence highly favourable to Mr. Duffy's
character, public and private, had been given by unim-
peachable parties at his trial. That he had already suf-
fere,' a long and close imprisonment, and had conse-
quently been most seriously injured in health, besides
undergoing the entire loss of a considerable property.
That even if guilty of the offences imputed to him, ne
had been most severely punished. That the publications
charged against him were written during a period of
great political excitement throughout Europe, which
bud now ceased, and that they extended in all over a
period of but few weeks. The memorial further stated
that it was opposed to a wise and humane administration
of the law to institute a second prosecution for the same
political offence. From this proposition he altogether
dissented; and he also thought it right to observe, that
he could not avoid believing Mr. Duffy guilty of the
offence laid to his charge.
Lord CLARENDON commented in severe language on
the terms of the memorial, and designated its presenta-
tion as an improper, if not an unprecedented, course.
He was surprised that twenty-six Members of Parlia-
ment could be found to sign such a document, especially
when there was no doubt of Mr. Duffy's guilt. Several
of those whose signatures were appended to that me-
morial had not many months ago expressed to him their
sense of the danger which existed at the period of Mr.
Duffy's arrest, and required the protection of the Go-
vernment against an apprrehended outbreak. Granting
the prayer of the memorial would be an extremely bad
precedent. and one which he could not sanction.
Mr. OTLAHERTY frankly admitted that, had he been
of the same opinion with Sir Lucius O'Brien as to the
guilt of Mr. Duffy, his signature certainly should not
have been attached to the memorial, nor would he have
been there to present it to his Excellency. Although
he believed Mr. Duffy to have been guilty of great im-
prudence in his acts and writings, he considered him in
'lucent of the crime laid to his charge. Mr. Duffy, too,
it should be borne in mind, had already suffered much
both in health and property ; and in his (Mr. O'Flaher-
cy's) opinion, the time had arrived when the clemency of
the Government might be extended with advantage to
the political prisoner.
Lord CLARENDON said the deputation appeared alto-
gether to overlook the material fact that Mr. Daffy had
been found guilty.
Mr. OTLAHERTY expressed his great surprise at this
statement. It was the first time he had heard that Mr.
Duffy's guilt was established.
Lord CLARENDON observed that Mr. Duffy's guilt was
proved by the fact that eleven out of the twelve jurors
empanelled to try him were in favour of bringing in a
verdict of guilty. Only one juror held out, or Mr.
Duffy would have been convicted.
Mr. OTLAHERTY repeated that he had not been aware
there was any evidence of Mr. Duffy having been found
guilty, but his Excellency having stated otherwise, he
was bound to believe his assertion. He now, however,
wished to remark that the opinion of the eleven men, to
whom Lord Clarendon referred, could not be considered
as a constitutional verdict of guilty.
Lord CLARENDON again commented on the presenta-
tion of the memorial, declaring it to be an unprece-
dented proceeding, and calculated to prevent the ends of
justice from being satisfied.
Mr. OTLAHERTY, while he regretted that his Excel-
lency should have censured the deputation, would not
enter further into the matter than to claim his right, as
a Member of Parliament, to place the grievances and the
opinions of his constituents before the chief governor of
the country. Those opinions were in favour of the
course suggested in the memorial.

Mr. Sciii.LY adverted to the important and striking
fact, that the memorial for Mr. Duffy's pardon had ori-
ginated with the jury who tried him; and he informed
Lord Clarendon that a petition on the same subject,.
numerously and respectably signed by the inhabitants of
Dublin and other parts of Ireland, was on its way to
London, and would be presented to his Excellency in a
few days. With regard to the mode in which Mr. Duffy's
prosecution was conducted, he believed it to have been
unprecedented.
Lord CLARENDON—So was the offence.
Mr. SCULLY continued to observe, that the long im-
prisooment Mr. Duffy had already endured, and his loss
of property was a revere punishment. Taking into con-
sideration the peaceable state of the country, ho thought
clemency might now be extended, without danger to the
administration of justice.

CITY SEWERS COMMISSION.—Yesterday a nume-
rously•attended Court of the Commissioners of Sewers
was held in their Council Chamber, at the Guildhall, for
the dispatch of business. Mr. Deputy Peacock presided.
The minutes of the former Court having been read by
the principal clerk, the several inspectors were called in,
and orders upon their reports were made. The whole
of the works connected with the Commission were re-
ported as being in a most satisfactory state. Mr. Simon,
the officer of health for the City, gave in a most volumi-
nous report upon the subject of the public health. After
some discussion, it was ordered that the report be entered
upon the journals. After the transaction of some busi-
ness of no public importance, the Cann adjourned until
Tuesday next.
MAJOR• GENERAL SIR DUDLEY ST. LEGER HILL,
K.C.B.—The appointment of this fine old officer and
supporter of Conservative principles to the colonelcy of
the gallant 50th Foot, to which the late lamented Prince
Waldemar of Prussia presented a piece of plate a short
time since, will be hailed with much gratification. Al-
though the Gallant Officer's name is comparatively un
known, his services have been of a most distinguished
character; indeed, no officer of his rank has led more
forlorn hopes, or has been engaged in more daring en-
terprises. He was an old colleague of Sir Harry Smith
in the Rifle Brigade. He led the forlorn hope at Monte
Video, also at Buenos Ayres, where he was severely
wounded, and made prisoner. He was also engaged in
the campaigns of 1806 and 1809, and was on one occa-
sion made prisoner, having been previously wounded.
He also took part in the affairs of Corunna, Fuentes
d'Onor, and Badajoz, into which town he was one of the
first to enter on the memorable night of the attack. At
Salamanca he was severely wounded. At Burgos he was

taken prisoner, but was subsequently recaptured. Be
was also at the taking of San Sebastian, and the invest-
ment of Bayonne. Sir Dudley is decorated with a
cross and one clasp. He will be entitled to the new
peninsular medal. Ho is a K.C.8., a Knight of the
Tower and Sword, and a Commander of St. Bento
d'Avis; and is now in command of a division of the
troops in India.
[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Cure of a Bleeding Cancer
by Holloway's Pills and Ointment Castle Fargate, Shrews-
bury, Jan. 5,1814. Mr. Holloway : —Sir I shall deem it my
duty to•make-in affidavit (before one of our magistrates) to
the effect that a frightful and dangerous cancer in _my wife's
face, which for seven years had resisted the treatment of all
the doctors in Shrewsbury, has been radically cured by means
alone of your wonderful Pills and Ointment. I shall, in gra-
titude, put this case in the newspapers. I tell everybody I
know of this extraordinary and miraculous cure.
