THE MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 1.
We have but few buyers at market for any kind of Grain,
and have large Arrivals of Wheat, Barley, and Oats, added to
the remains cf last market; any left unsold caused the trade in
general to be very dull, and the best Corn, Wheat, Barley, and
Oats, to decline full Is. per quarter since Monday, and the in..
ferior of every description, though offered from 2s. to 3s. lower,
without purchasers.—ln Peas and Beans little doing, and a
trifle lower.

SMITHFIELD MARKET, FEE. 1.

[NEW TIMES.]
The Suffolk Meeting has read a lesson to the
Country Gentlemen of England, which will not
soon be forgotten. The great Landholders were
called together to sanction a Petition, throwing
the blame of the Agricultural Distress on the
Ministers. The matter had been artfully managed
—all parties were agreed—" Little difference of
opinion was expected"—" No petty resentments
were to mar their exertions for the common good."
!ifti Henry Bunbury proposed the Resolutions—
Sir Robert Harland seconded them—Lord Hunt-
ingfield agreed with the preceding Orators—
Lord Dunwick wished " before the meeting
separated" to say a few words.—Nr. Merest,
Lord Calthorpe, Mr: Gooch and Lord Henry
Fitzroy, were all more or less cordially in favour
of the Resolutions, as at first proposed.—When
Jo ! a Mr. Grigsby, or Wigsby, or some such name,
starts up, and at once turns the current of popu-
-1.-.r frenzy against the great men themselves.—
" Down with your Rents !" drowns the cry of
No Taxation." In vain did a patriotic Ba-
ronet avow himself a staunch friend of Reform.
" We cannot believe any of you," retorted a
real Reformist, " until you drop your Rents.—
We want deeds, and not words." In like man-
ner another Noble Orator was answered, when
he pathetically said, that he " felt for the poor
Farmer who had the unhappiness to live under
an equally unfortunate Landlord, who could not
impart that relief which equity and charity de-
manded, and which, were it in his power, he was
_perfectly inclined to afford,"—the plebeian au-
ditors roundly disavowed their belief of any
such liberality, and asserted that their Landlords
" had the powers but not the will." Now, let
us pause upon this picture ! Here is the plain,
honest, farmer, suffering under the 'pressure
of distress. Ile is called away from his occupa-
tions, to listen to the factious abuse of Ministers,
-who, he is told, are ruining him by taxation. In-
experienced as he is in political reasoning, a mo-
ment's reflection teaches him, that of all his out-
goings, his taxes are the lightest and his rent the
heaviest. If the remission of the one will relieve
him, much more will the remission of the other.
He therefore naturally replies to his noble and
honourable advisers, " Relieve me yourselves—
drop your rents—l want deeds and not Ni'OrdS."

LTHE TIMES.]
Yesterday the Report of the City Committee
on the outrage at Knightsbridge was taken into
consideration by a Court of Common Council,
and that Report was all but unanimously con-
hrmed. We are more in love with peace than
party, and 'therefore agree in an observation made
by one worthy Member, that as the deceased had
zo relations bitried at Hammersmith, it would
have been much better that the funeral proces-
sion should not have been directed to that
church. But the matter being thus determined,
what right had the military to interfere ? Surely,
if there is such a thing as discipline in the British
army, soldiers may be kept in order, though a
mob may not. But an outrage upon the Sheriff,
-who had nothing to do with the determination to
bury the bodies at Hammersmith, but who was
called from his home merely by his sense of duty
to preserve the peace between the parties, was
most atrocious.
