EXETER,, JULY 27.—Cattle—Although there was an average
number of beasts driven in, the proportion of fat beef was but
small, and of good fat beef still less. Prices ranged from 8s
to 8s 9d per score. There was a moderate supply of cows and
calves, but the demand was very dull, at from 8/ to 141 each.
Stare bullocks were 5s to es per score. There was nearly 50
poor Irish steers and heifers, including yearlings, two-years'-
olds, and three-years'-olds, but none, we believe, were sold,
various prices were asked for them from 3/ to 71 and 81 each.

LivEaroor., JULY 27.—The arrivals from Ireland and
coastwise, as well as from abroad, since Tuesday, have been
quite unimportant. The exports in the same time have also
been trifling. As the weather, which at the beginning of the
week was extremely wet, has since become more favourable,
the demand for wheat and flour has been languid, though prices
have been well maintained. Indian corn has met with little
attention, and some sales of prime yellow were reported at 29s
per quarter, being a further decline of is per quarter. In other
articles no change has occurred. At this day's market there
was only a slender attendance of the trade, and wheat and flour
met with an extremely slow sale, at about the prices of Tues-
day. Oats and oatmeal were without change in value. For
barley, beans, and peas there was the usual retail demand at
our late quotations. Indian corn was in very limited request,
and fully 2s per quarter lower, 28s per quarter being the top
price of prime yellow.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, JULY 27.—A fair amount
of business has been done in our raw sugar market this week,
at prices rather in favour of the buyers. The refined market
is dull and lower. Rum is in rather more request, especially
prime parcels, which, however, are scarce.—Bristol Mercury.
DENEIGH, JULY 25.—The market to-day wore a dull ap-
pearanre, and business was very flat, the holders of corn not
liking to part with it at the present prices. The averages
were about for wheat, 16s to 16s 6d ; barley, 9s 6d ; oats, 6s
6d to 6s 9.1 per hobbet. Fresh butter, 10d to 10/2d ; salt
ditto, 9d to 91/0 per lb.
LLANRWST, JULY 24.—There was a good deal of business
done at our market again to• day ; but wheat was sold for less
money, the highest mark being 18s. Barley and oats were
readily disposed of, the former at from 9s 6d to lls ; oats, 5s
6d to 7s per hobbet. Fresh butter, 9d to 10d per lb.
RUTHIN, JULY 23. —Wheat from 163 to 17s 6d; barley, 9s
to lOs; oats, 5s to 6s per hobbet; potatoes, from 201b5 to
241bs for Is. Fresh butter, 10d per lb.
RHYL, JULY 24.—Nothwithstanding the depression in Lon-
don on Monday, we have had a good business transacted to..
day in wheat, barley, and oats, at the improvement of last
week. Wheat at 16s to 17s per 168 lbs ; barley, 9s to lOs per
1471bs ; oats, 6s to 6s 6d per 1051bs.

Mr. Bryant deposed that he was the drawer of thebill
in question. In the beginning of the present year, the
defendant, with whom he was acquainted, wanted to
raise some money upon a reversionary interest,:and witness
endeavored to get some person to advance him the
amount he required, but failing to do so, he suggested
that a bill of exchange should be drawn by him, and ac-
cepted by the defendant, and ho told him that he believed
he should be able to get the bill discounted, through the
agency of a person named Smith. Accordingly, on the
26th February, he accompanied the defendant to a public-
house in Beak-street, where they saw a brougham and
servant standing at the door, belonging to Smith, and
they afterwards saw that person in the smoking-room of
the house. It was then arranged that this bill should be
drawn, but as Smith had not got money enough to buy a
stamp, he went out to borrow some. Smith came back
accompanied by a person named Cubitt, and the stamp
was at length procured, and witness drew the bill, and it
was accepted by the defendant, and then handed to Smith
who undertook to get it discounted. In the month of
November previous to this transaction he saw the plain-
tiff, who carried on the business of an upholsterer at
Southampton, for the purrose of arranging a debt which
Smith owed him, and upon thatoccasion the plaintiff
seemed very vindictive against Smith, and said that he
knew he could never pay him, unless he had a " slice of
luck," or " nailed" somebody, as he generally did.
Mr. Cubitt deposed that he was an upholsterer, and
carried on business in Sherrard-street, Regent street.
He was, to his sorrow, acquainted with Joha Smith,
the person referred to by the last witness. He remem-
bered, on the 26th February, that he came to his shop

Campbell's Stores in Beak-street, where he found the
defendant and Mr. Bryant, and atter some conversation
a stamp was procured and the present bill was drawn
and accepted and handed to Smith, who took it away,
saying that he was going to get it discounted by a soli-
citor, and that he would bring the money back in two
hours. A day or two after this he saw the bill still in
Smith's possession, and he wanted witness to discount it,
offering to give half the amount of the bill for the accom-
modation. About a fortnight after that, the plaintiff and
Smith came to his shop in the brougham of the latter,
and Smith said that he had "nailed" the fellow at last,
