felony against the prisoner it he was remanded.

soner replied, at Shirley, en the iluaisey-ivad, ouch
ampton._

William Leigh and Augustus CrosAly, alias Cood4
were brought before Mr. Cottingham for re-exaininll:
Lion, charged with conspiring to obtain money by false
pretences, as agents for collecting advertisements ro
the Watchman, Nonconlarmi,st, and British Banner'
weekly newspapers.
Three cases were selected against Leigh, from whiehi,
it appeared that he followed the avocation of newspoPed
advertisement agent, and in that capacity had solienh%
advertisements trom three tradesmen fur insertion in 4,
above journals. lie bad received a commission uP°-
each advertisement from the newspaper in which it air
peered, and there, as far as he was concerned, the traile
action should havo been at an end. However, instead();
adhering to that course of business, it was proved tlis
he subsequently called upon each of the advertisers an
received the amount of the insertions, which he deffet
to his own purposes without any authority from t",
parties to whom the money was due, and the discovery
of this fraudulent mode of doing business was brought !o
light when the bills were sent in from the newspaper° is
question.
The necessary evidence to establish the oharge:
against the prisoners having been produced, and the"i-
solicitor (Mr. Roberts) having contended that it W°-
not-
,
not sufficiently strong to come within the meaning of the
Act,
The MAGISTRATE expressed his intention to send tr
cases for further investigation before another tribung'
and in doing so, remarked that under the circumstance!"
as it was a bailable offence, he should adjudge the Pb
soners to enter into their own recognizances in 40/. eg
and two sureties of 201., to answer the charges at the
next sessions.

THE COUNTRY MARKETS.
HULL, MAY 1.
Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular state/
The past week has certainly been the most inactive, as red
gards the general business of this port, of any previous onei
this year. Exports of manufactured goods are serions,
:
affected through the blockade of the different German Prt,
and from the same cause our imports of foreign grain are onto
most limited scale, and will now fall off much more, as up to, of
30th ult neutral vessels were allowed to leave the ports
they might be at the commencement of the blockade, our in
'ity
mation lead us to believe that there is only amuderate
on passage to this port. It may be going beyond the proving
of a trade circular, but we cannot refrain from expressing v-oos
unfeigned regret that the Government of the country does Lei
at once, and actively interfere to prevent the sad consequenco
which must accrue to every branch of our commercial inter re
from the pri.sent state of affairs ; such interference wouldv,
effectual, and we doubt not as to its practicability, This EtW
ing's. letters look less like peace than ever. During the ler et
oos
the grain trade has been most inactive ; notwithstanding sr for
in warehouse and fresh arrivals being very small, they are of
the present beyond the necessities of millers, and theloo,,
course avail themselves of this ; not many factors, are, Poo..
ever, disposed to give way in foreign grain, and such (e
the
cially wheat of first quality) is for the most part held at i of
prices of a fortnight ago. We had to day a small suPP /
o f
wheat from our farmers, and a very quiet market, without
notable alteration upon last week's prices. In foreign ths
r
transactions were very limited, holders being equally disineii og
ore
with buyers to alter their ideas, but there was certainly nlood
inquiry on the part of millers. Spring corn of all kinds a gd is
deal neglected during the week as well as to-day, Linsge.,, jo
fully as dear, but cakes are easier to buy. Nothing n 8 or
rapeseed, while rape cakes are the turn dearer. Bones supPv
late prices.
