MARKETS.--(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE.
There are small arrivals of English Wheat and Oats, good of I3ar.
ley and Flour, and a fair quantity of Oats from Ireland. The Wheat
trade remains firm at Monday's prices, with little doing. Barley still
sells heavily. Beans support their value. Peas are very dull. Oats
maintain the terms last quoted. There is not much doing in Flour this
week.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 6.
We continue to experience an extremely inanimate demand for Cot-
ton, at the quotations of Saturday last. The total transactions do not
exceed 2,500 bags. The arrivals of Cotton during the present week,
are very heavy, amounting to nearly 5,800 Bags. 2,095 American,

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, MARCH 6.
The supplies of all sorts of Grain, Flour, Oatmeal, &c., have been
small since our last report. The canals are now in full operation, but
only a small business was done in any article. In the interval between
this day's market and the preceding one, owing to purchasers awaiting
further supplies, which are expected to be large, as the wind is now
blowing from the west, we bad a fair attendance of trade this morn.
ing, but, for the cause assigned above, only a small portion of business
was effected. Wheat, however, maintained our last quotations. Oats
likewise were fully as dear, but Oatmeal suffered a depression in value at
6d. per 240 lbs. Flour,
on a poor inquiry, barely realized tl:c. prices last
quoted.

The quotation of P.Y.C. to-day was 515., which is higher than has

WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 7, 1838.

The funds of the Tories being exhausted, they have
given up the London Election contest, and this day the
four sitting Members were declared duly elected. What
will be the next fabrication, and the next boast of the
Times and the Tories'

Sir WILLIAM MOLESINORTII made his attack last
night on the Colonial Minister. His speech was long,
dull, and tiresome, correcting errors into which ho fondly
presumes the public, who care nothing about his opinions,
hare formed as to them—and condemning Lord GLENELO
for not having been a great prophet, and for not having
taken measures to meet all the evil which Sir W. MOLES-
WORTH fancies may exist now, and hereafter exist in every
colony of the Empire. The Members of the House con-
versed instead of listening to Sir WlLLlma's oration, which
will consign nobody to oblivion, now that it is published,
Lut himself. Such an antagonist only makes the little
vices he charges Lord GLENELG with, virtues by the
contrast. Mr. LEADER seconded Sir WILLIAM. Lord
PALMERSTON boldly met the motion by a decided
negative, and made a speech which Sir WILLrAm
MOLE3WoRTII will wish unread, and which we earnestly
recommend to public perusal. Even his oppQneuts felt

THREE O'CLOCK-

With the exception of place-hunters and the fierce-
going Aristocracy that sit behind the leader of the Opposition.
and urge on the battle, we believe the number that approve at
the present policy of the ultra-Radicals and Tories is very
small. We have heard from several quarters that the nior°
moderate Tories, and particularly those engaged
in trade,
would look upon a victory over Ministers on such a question as
that to be decided to-night, as a great national calamity. This
country is prosperous, Ireland never was more peaceful, thi!
alrairs of Canals are in a fair way to be settled amicably, ancl
they naturally ask—why convulse the whole empire for a laur
mentary party triumph?

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW- STREET.
Thomas Plowman, a tailor, was brought up by Ballard,
the officer, charged on suspicion with breaking and enter-
ing the house of Mr. Ratcliffe, of Brick hill, Fenny Strat-
ford, Bucks, and stealing several articles.
• It appeared that on the night of the lath inst. the pro-
secutor's house, which had been broken into some months
back, had been entered and a considerable sum of money
was taken away, which caused him to offer a reward of
101. for the apprehension of the offender. On making
search next morning a number of sheets, with a quantity of
provisions, were discovered in the fields about the house,
and as a pair of boots which belonged to the prisoner,
covered with mud, were also found, this, coupled with his
absconding at the time of the robbery, caused him to be sus-
pected, and he was taken into custody. The prisoner is
the husband of the prosecutor's cook, and had been fre-
quently employed doing jobs about the house, and went oc-
casionally to sleep there, but no suspicion was attached
to him, notwithstanding his idle habits, until he absented
himself.

Mr. Miss Hum, inquired if there was any likelihood of
obtaining any further evidence upon the case, and being in-
formed that a few days inquiry would throw much light
upon the subject, and as the extent of the robbery was not
yet ascertained, he ordered the prisoner to be remanded for
a week.

periments which were likeiy to overthrow the it*li!utiois of
the country.

Sir F. BretnETT was received with much enthusiasm, and
referred, in his usual forcible language, to the etfews of
O'Connell and the Precursors, giving incidentally a due metal
of praise to his former constituents, the electors of Wesimin-
ster. He alluded to the differences which had arisen between
O'Connell and the Whigs, likening th former to " Fegin,"
in tie popular novel of the present day.
The assembly did not break up till near twelve o'clock.
Had it not been for the delay in the arrival of the mail train,
we should have been able to have given a full report of the
proceedings of this meeting. The train, which ought to have
arrived at Euston-squate this morning at half-past five o'clock,
did not reach its destination till half-past seven, full two hours
after the appointed time. During this period the passengers
had been kept waiting, in the earriTes near Wolverton ; the
engine which had been attached at Birmingham, which was
put on for the first time, was found not to answer. The con-
sequence was, that it took its departure for the next stition,
and after the interval we have mentioned, was replaced by
another. Surely these accidents ought least of all to occur in
trains carrying the mail, where expedition is an object of so
much importance.

MARYLEBOIVE.

A man named Norton, who has been carrying on busi-
ness as a tailor in Tottenham Court-road, was yesterday
fully committed for trial from this office on a charge of
having extorted various sums of money from a metropolitan
clergyman, under a threat of accusing the Rev. Gentleman
of an unnatural offence. Prosecutor stated that he had
for several years employed the prisoner in the way of
business, and that some time ago prisoner had threatened to
charge him with the offence in question, unless he gave him
money. Being alarmed at the idea of such an accusation,
although totally without foundation, prosecutor had at
various times given him money to the amount of fifteen
pounds, till he became so importunate that prosecutor had
disclosed the matter to his friends, under whose advice he
was now acting. The prisoner denied having threatened
prosecutor in the manner referred to, and said whatever
money he had received from the Rev. Gentleman had been
merely in charity.

FIFE MARKETS, during the Week ending Dec. 15, 1838.
At St. Andrews Sample Market, held on Tuesday this
week (in consequence of it being a quarterly fair da ), we had
a large attendance of Farmers. but not much Grain offering of
any kind. The demand was exceedingly brisk, at an advance
of from Is. to 2s. per quarter. Wheats, 70s. to 80s. per
quarter. Barleys, 355. to 40s. Oats, 28s. to 325.
At Newburgh Stock Market, on Tuesday, a very trifling
quantity of Barley was brought forward, sales quick at im-
proving rates. Top price, 40s. ; current, 375. ; inferior,
355. 6d. per quarter.
At Cupar Sample Market, on Thursday, we have still to re-
port short supplies of all kinds of Grain. Wheat and Barley
full Is. per quarter dearer. Oats much the same as on last
market day. Wheat, 645. to 82s. per quarter. Barley, 355.
to 393. 6d. Oats, 295. 6d. to 325.

At Kirkcaldy Stock Market, on Saturday, the supply of
Wheat and Barley was limited, but that of Oats large. The
two former may be quoted 6d. to Is. per quarter dearer ; Oats
were purchased at about 6d. per quarter less money. Wheat,
665. to 865.. Barley, 335. to 425. Oats, 275. to 345. Oat-
meal, per bag of 280;b5., 475.

THE MONMOUTHSHIRE MERLIN, pub.
lished every SATURDAY Morning in Newport, and exten-
sively circulated through Monmouthshire and the neighbouring
English and Welsh Counties.
The Politics of The MERLIN are liberal-not 'violent
not licentious.: it scorns the trammels of partY, and seeks, by the
best of its ability, to promulpte to the community.a true know-
ledge of their rights, their duties, and their interests, without de-
tracting, it is humbly hoped, from that dignified character which
the Press should ever support :
,
" Nit falsi audeat—nil Teri non audeat dicers."
Newport, the destined emporium of South Wales, it is needless
to state, is now regarded as an important seaport of the United
Empire. It is intimately connected with the. great Mining Dis-
tricts that surround it: from its resources those districts obtain
their most valuable supplies. Its import and export trade is consi-
derable, and of daily increase.

COINCIDENT ROYAL FATALITY.—It is a remark-
able coincidence in the fate of some of the Princes who have sat
on the Throne of England, that all those who have espoused
incesses of France have not only become unpopular with their
subjects, but have come to an untimely end. For example--
Edward 11. married to Isabel, daughter of Philip iv., of
France, murdered in Berkely Castle ; Richard IL married to
Isabel, daughter of Charles VI. of France, murdered in Pon-
tefract Castle; Henry VI. married to Margaret, daughter of
Rene, Duke of Anjou, murdered by Richard 111. ; Charles I.
married to Henrietta Maria, daughter cf Henry IV. of France
died on the scaffold.

On Wednesday night, between eight and nine
o'clock, a mechanic named James Dean, in a state of excessive
intoxication, was riding on the roof of one of the Hampstead
omnibuses, and in passing aloof,- Tottenham court. road be fell
off, and, pitching on his head, fractured his skull. He re-
mains in a precarious state.
