80/LOUGH 110 P MARKET.

We have no change to notice in the general features
of our market. Really fine Hops are scarce, and quite
as dear; but all other kinds are neglected. Yearling and
Old Hops almost nominal. New Hops—Sussex Pockets,
215 s to 21 18s ' • Weald of Kent ditto, 21 $s to 3/ 5s ;
Mid and East ditto, 2/ 12s to 51 17s per cwt.

WO OM-
Last week's imports of Wool into London were con-
fined to 1,735:ba1es from South America. The compara-
tively favourable accounts received from the manufac-
turing districts have had considerable influence upon
our markets. In some instances rather more money has
been obtained for the finest qualities of Colonial Wool;
the value of all other kinds being firmly supported. The
following shows the total imports of Wool into the
United Kingdom during the first eleven months of the
three past years:—

TALLOW.

Although this market may be considered somewhat
firmer, prices have receded 3d per cwt since Monday last.
The stock is now upwards of 35:009 casks ; and P.Y.C.
on the spot, is quoted, to-day, at 41s 9d to 42s per cwt.
There is rather more doing for forward delivery. The
quantity of Tallow on the way from St. Petersburgh is
now about 4,600 casks. Rough Fat is 2s 5d per 81b.

BANKRUPTCY.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner FANE•)
IN RE READ.
This bankrupt had formerly kept the Saracen's Head
Inn at Northampton, and at the Unicorn, Stone's End,
Borough. He now came up for his certificate.
The debts amounted to 1,1631., and the assets received
by the official assignee only amount to 61., the assets
being stated good debts 61. No creditor's assignee bad
been appointed.
Mr. LAWRENCE, for the bankrupt, said no creditor
now opposed, and Mr. Burleigh (of the firm of Bur-
leigh and Co., distillers) had withdrawn a proof tendered
on a previous occasion, and had refused to become as-
signee. Nr. Lawrence said aim the great loss had been

incurred in consequence of the falling off in trade at the
inn at Northampton through the railways, it having
been a coaching house.
His HoNoun asked Mr. Whitmore, the official as-
signee, whether he had any objection to urge against the
bankrupt, and was answered in the negative. His Honour
then said that it could hardly be expected that after a
person had got rid of the whole of the property, creditors
would come forward at expence and trouble.
Mr. LAWRENCE said that the business was in fact that
of the bankrupt's step-daughter, and carried on in her
name. _

His HONOUR.—Then how is it that he incurred the
debts ? The fact is, he held himself out as carrying
on the business, but when he was pressed, and he was
insolvent, then he stated that the property belonged to
some one else. His Honour ultimately adjourned the
certiticate for twelve months from the date of the fiat,
without protection.

INSOLVENT COURT,--(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Commissioner llAnnis.)
IN RE NICKEL

The insolvent, the well known performer at the Surrey
and Victoria Theatres, and latterly landlord of the Fish-
mongers' Arms, St. George's road, Southwark, came up
to put in bail.
The Learned COMMISSIONER, after going through the
schedule observed that he found, from the description
which the insolvent had given of himself, that he was a
comedian. _ Was that the case ?

The insolvent replied that he was a performer.
The COMMISSIONER—What assets have you to divide
amongst your creditors ? Insolvent—Nothing.
The COMMISSIONER—Have you been anything else
besides a performer?
_

The insolvent replied, that he had for a period of from
fifteen to eighteen months been .the landlord of the
Fishmongers' Arms, St. George's•road, which turned
out a bad speculation. It was a dead loss to him.
The CommissiorrEn—When you undertook that, then
you undertook a very bad part ?
The insolvent replied, it was the worst part he had
ever performed in.
The COMMISSIONER inquired if any creditors opposed
the bail, when no answer being given, Mr. Richards, a
peruke-maker, and Mr. Hill, the landlord of the City
Arms, West-square, offered themselves, and were ac-
cepted.
The debts of the insolvent was not mentioned, but they
were understood to be considerable.

MA RLBRO'-STREET— (THIs DAY.)
Thomas George, a sturdy young fellow, was brought
up on a warrant, charging him with having used threat-
ening language to W. Cooke, a young man residing at
the Bromley Arms, Cleveland-street, Fitzroy-square.
Mr. Hobler, who attended on the part of complainant,
stated that the prisoner was formerly in the employ of
Mr. Chesney, the brother-in-law of complainant. Since
his discharge he had pursued a system of annoyance,
not only to complainant but to Mr. and Mrs. Chasney.
He had threatened their lives several times, and in one
instance, which led to the present proceedings, the pri-
soner had pulled out a knife and threatened to run it
into complainant's body. His client, therefore, went in
constant fear lest the prisoner should carry his threat
into execution.

William Cooke deposed that he was in the employ of
Mr. Chasney, landlord of the Bromley Arms, Cleveland-
street. The prisoner was formerly in the same employ,
but from some cause or other he was discharged. On
last Wednesday week the prisoner came into the shop,
and used very abusive and threatening language to-
wards witness and Mrs. Chesney. Witness desired him
to leave the house peaceably, and not to annoy them.
He refused, and having pulled out a large knife,
threatened to run it iato him. Witness became alarmed,
and ran into the parlour, and prisoner left the place.
Mrs. Emily Chesney said the prisoner had repeatedly
threatened her life, and she was fearful, unless he was
restrained from committing any violence, that he would
carry his threats into execution.
The prisoner, in defence, said be went into the Brom-
ley Arms on Wednesday week last, and was standing at
the bar drinking some beer, when the complainant
Cooke came and ordered him out of the house. He de-
nied using any threats, or even pulling out his knife. He
certainly did tell him that if he laid hands upon him be
would serve him out as he had done before.
Mr. BINGHAM said, the prisoner was in a
house which was not his own, and if his com-
pany was not acceptable to the owners, they
had an undoubted right to order him out. If he refused
to leave quietly they bad also a right to use moderate
force to put him out. He (prisoner) had no right to
threaten to serve them out as ho had done before, and as
he had admitted using that threat, he (Mr. Bingham)
should require him to find two sureties in 201. each and
himself in 401. to keep the peace towards complainant
and all other persons in the same house for the space of
three months.
