EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.—At the
Mop or Statute Fair, held at Gloucester, at Michaelmas
lust, a person named Henry Sintrt, who keeps a beer shop,
and also boats on the Severn, hired a servant boy, appa-
rently about 14 years of age, to assist him in his business ;
he gave his name John Ridler, and Jack, for so he was
called, has continued to perform his work so as to give his
master satisfaction. Within the last few days, however,
he has complained of being unwell, and was obliged to keep
his bed ; the master, feeling some suspicion as to the cause
of his illness, on Wednesday sent for a police officer who
was present and assisted in hiring the boy, and requested
him to go, and, if possible, ascertain what was the matter
with him. On proceeding to the bedroom, and after put-
ting a few questions to the boy, all of which were an-
swered unsatisfactorily, the officer turned down the bed-
clothes, and to his astonishment discovered that the pre-
tended boy was a female. The account she gave of her-
self is, that she is an illegitimate child, and was born at
Newent, in this county, and is now between 16 and 17
years of age ; when she was about ten years of age her
mother deserted her, leaving her possessed of 7s. to begin
the world with, and it was at that time she took the ro-
mantic idea into her head of personating a boy, She im-
mediately went to a clothes-shop, and with the 75., and
what was allowed for her female attire, she purchased a
suit of boy's clothes, and soon after got hired as carter boy
to a farmer near Bromyard, in whose service she remained
a considerable time, sleeping with the carter ; but her sex
was never discovered. She has continued to live in the
service of different farmers until she was hired by her pre-
sent master ; and had she .not have taken the violent cold
which is the cause of the illness she is now suffering under,
it is a question but her sex may have remained a secret
for a considerable time longer, A surgeon has been called
in, and now attends hen—Sherboene Journal.

A meeting of the operatives of Macclesfield was held
on Tuesday evening, on the subject of the turn-out in the
Staffordshire potteries, at which resolutions were passed
approving the conduct of the workmen there, and a com-
mittee was formed for the purpose of soliciting subscriptions
for their support;--.lfacrlesjield C'ourier.
We are informed by a Brussels correspondent that
much interest has been o:eiteil at Liege by a young Eng-
-1 is
abandonedlad y , o f greatby
herfather, Lo
beauty dacrd A., to the
eo ni Ls brncnt who has been
charity s
of the
proprietors of a "pension," where she was placed by bia
Lordship three yearn past. The Noble Earl having
neglected to pay for his daegiiter'S maintenance for the last
two years, and having taken no notice of repeated applica-
tions, the unfortunate girl, • who is little more i t
—444 g.q. teen,
was menaced with heiug turned 'adrift. But the King hav-
ing been applied to, his 1114,ipsty, with that goodness which
characterises him, referred the subject to the Minister of
the Interior, who has directed a sum to ho x 0 for the
education of Lord A.'s daughter out of the charitablo fund.
We mention this case in the hope that the Noble Lord will
be induced to relieve his child from the miseries that would
await her if not supported by the benevolence of the Belgic
Government, and himself from the odium that must by At-
tached to such unfeeling conduct.—Morning Paver.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the New London Price Current of Nov. 29.)

St:GAIL—The West India raw Sugar Market has been in
a very languid state all last week, and importers have submit-
ted to a decline on previous rates of Is. a Is. Gd. for the brown,
and 6d. a Is. for the yellow descriptions, even at which reduc-
tion the buyers purchased with great reluctance, the refiners in
particular, and the 1,500 hhds, and•trs. disposed of were chiefly
taken for the scale ; the continued dullness which prevails in
this Market is to be attributed to the small quantity of capital
afloat; the decline in the prices since the Market was at its
highest point, is 10s. a I Is. on the brown, and Bs. on the yel-
low qualities.; so that the prices now rate Is. a 2s. under those
of this time last year, and the stock is nearly 6,000 hhds. and
trs. more than in 1835, which is owing to the great and con-
tinued falling off in the deliveries this year, which may in a
a great measure be accounted for, the refiners having for a
long time been only partially at work ; the lowest price for
brown Sugar is now 563., and the highest for fine yellow 665.
per cwt. At public sale 52 hhds. Jamaica was taken in at
575. for grey quality suitable for the scale.
The stock of West India Sugars is now 36,792 hhds. and
trs., being 5,344 more than last year. The stock of Mau-
ritius is now 30,437 bags, which is 17,166 less than last year,
(including the East India Dock.) The delivery of \Vest India
last week was 2,124 hhds. and trs., which is 945 less than last
year. The delivery of Mauritius was 1,189 bags, being 1,757
less than the corresponding week of last year (including the
East India Dock.) This afternoon in the prices no further
alteration has taken place ; the Market continues in a languid
state, the demand both for the scale and pan being very mo-
derate, more particularly for the. latter purpose ; the pur-
chases, including the Barbadoes sale, have been confined to 300
blids. and trs. The public sale of 113 hhds. Barbadoes went
off at a reduction on the prices of the last sale of Gd., good
and fin() selling at 645. a 68s.
For Refined goods a reduction on previous rates of Is. a
2s. has been accepted, the greater reduction has been on the
grocery descriptions under the standard; the home trade have
purchased sparingly, and the transactions in the export de-
scriptions have been to a very moderate extent ; sales of Lumps
entitled to the bounty made at 80s., and those rather under the
standard at 785., and double Crushed at 395. ; Bastards are
rather cheaper, and difficult of sale ; the prices of Treacle re-
main steady, and there has existed a fair demand. In Dutch
Crushed Sugars further small sales have been made as 373.,
being last week's prices.

This afternoon the Market for all descriptions of Refined
goods was in a very inactive state, both shippers and grocers
purchasing with the greatest reluctance ; Lumps to pass the
standard are not to be purchased under 80s., and 395. for dou-
ble Crushed ; Bastards arc still extremely dull of sale, and for
Treacle there is little request.
MAURITICS.-This article, like the British Plantation Mar-
ket and most others, is in a heavy state, and of the 3,000 bags
offered at auction, only a small portion were disposed of at
and after the sale, at the reduced rates of-yellow mid. and
find at 60s. a 665. 6d., brown low to good 48s. a 565. 6d.,
very inferior 365. 6d. a 445., being a reduction, since the prices
were at their highest, of I is. a 12s. on brown, and Bs. a 9s.
on yellow descriptions. No other public sales are declared,
and we are still without arrivals. The weekly deliveries are
still under those of last year.
EAST INDIA.-In Siam and Manilla, with the exception of
a cargo of the latter having been disposed of at 215., nothing
has been done ; the importers are still firm in their demands,
and will not press sales at any decline in prices. In Bengal
for shipping there has been nothing done, and the request from
the grocers has been trifling at unvaried prices ; at public sale
1,175 bags were all taken in at easy prices, Bengal good and
fine white at 335. a 335. 6d., damps and damaged 325. a 355. ;
Bombay soft brown at 245.
FOREIGN.-The importers require fully former rates for all
descriptions, but there continues to be little business doing,
and the limited request which has existed has been confined to
yellow Havannah ; 100 chests have been taken at 295. for good
mid. This afternoon several small parcels of yellow Havannah
have been disposed of at 30s. for fine quality.
MOLASSES,-West India are extremely dull of sale, and
240 puns. new Barbadoes at auction were all taken in at
30s. for fine quality. The total deliveries of West India Mo-
lasses from the warehouses for home use for the week ending
November 26th, amount to 1,070 cwt.
RUM, BRANDY AND HOLLANDS. -There has 'been a very
brisk demand for English, Scotch and Irish Raw Spirits, at
fully last week's rates. Brandy for home consumption has
been in good request. In the Rum Market the business done
has been confined to Leewards and Demerara at fully the late
high prices. In Jamaica nothing has been done, the quantity
remaining in the hands of the importers being extremely
trifling, and for which the holders require prices fully equal to
those which have been obtained of late. The sales have been
200 puns. Leewards, proof to 7 over 2s. 7d. a 2s. 9d., Deme-
rara good brown, 2a 3 over, at 2s. 9d. The government
contract for 75,000 gallons has been taken by one party, 55,000
gallons at 2s. 71d., and 20,000 gallons at 2s. 7d 5-10.
This afternoon there was a steady demand for Leeward
Island Rum at former rates ; of Jamaica the market is still
without a supply.
TALLow.-The Tallow market is quiet, and prices are not
so good as they were towards the close of the week: the de-
mand for parcels on the spot, for consumption_ has been very
moderate at 455. 6d. to 455. 9d. for P. Y. Candle ; the trans-
actions for forward delivery have been extremely trifling at
445. 6d. to 455.

PROVISIONS. —An advance of Is. to 2s. has taken place in
the value of Irish Butter, and there has been a good demand
for consumption, sales of Corks, landed at 102 s. to 104 s. ;
Carlow 104 s. to 106 s. Owing to the immense supply of
Dutch, the price has deelined to 1003. to 102 s. for the best
Friezland, and 945. to 102 s. for Kiel and Holstien. The
Bacon market has been in a very languid state, and prices are
on the decline. Lard has been in steady request at 765. to
78s. for Waterford bladdered. Hams are extremely dull of
sale. For India Mess Beef and Pork the request is very mo-
derate, and prices are on the decline. The prices of English
