On the whole the market may be called inactive, yet we
can report no material alteration in prices. The recent quo-
tation for P.Y.C. on the spot is 50s per cwt. For forward
delivery very few contracts have been entered into. Town
Tallow, the supply of which is by no means large, is 50s
net cash.

QUEEN'S BENCH..-(THIS DAY.)
The sittings here terminated this morning. As many as
twelve causes were set down for trial; but some were with-
drawn, and others could not be proceeded with in conse-
quence of the absence of attornies and witnesses. Therefore
the court rose before eleven o'clock, from not having any
business to proceed with.
Lord DENMAN said ho had taken one day from the city
sittings, in order to facilitate the trying of causes at West-
minster, and that it was too bad the public time should be
trifled with in this way.
The cause "Richards v. Lord Maidstone," was amongst
those withdrawn.
The court will sit at Guildhall to-morrow.
