THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

COLONIAL MARKET.
The market was quiet ; shippers and the home trade
operated with much caution. Good Bengal Rice at public
sale went off at 12s. to 12s. 6d. per cwt. In Raw Sugar
a fair business has been done at stiff rates. The imports
are fair.

TEA. MARKET.
The market was dull, but holders were firm. Com-
pany's Congou i?; 9id., cash, _ The deliveries keep large,

TALLOW MARKET.
The demand was dull, but prices were itbady, at 48s.
to 48s. 3d. for P.Y.C., on the spot and for4elivery up to
the end of the year.
WHITECHAPEL HAY MARKET.

The supply was abundant, the demand but middling,
and prices without alteration. Clover, 31. to 5L 13s. ;
Hay, 21. to 41. Bs. ; Straw, 1/. 6s. to 1/. 10s.

The Commissioners of Woods and Forests have
given notice of their intention to apply to Parliament for
leave to arch over, or stop up, the watercourse which at
present runs from the Serpentine River to the Thames.
This alteration is to be made in order to form the pro-
posed•road from Knightsbridge to Bayswater, and which
will pass over what is termed the " Palace-green" of
Kensington-Palace, and which will certainly be the finest
ride or drive in the park. As some alteration will pro-
bably take place in the Palace gardens in consequence
of the improvements, the following notice will perhaps
be interesting :—Kensington Palace was built by Sir
Henry Finch, afterwards Earl of Nottingham, and was
sold by the second Earl to William 111., who caused a
Royal park to be made to it through Hyde Park. The
gardens were then only 26 acres ; Queen Anne added 50
acres, and Queen Caroline took in nearly 300 acres of
the park. The gardens are nearly three miles and a
half in circumference. The Palace was the frequent re-
sidence of King William and Queen Mary, George L,
and George 11. Her Majesty frequently resided there
and the Duke of Sussex has apartments in the Palace

ounce phial a drachm of the acid, and hold it in „ace
contact with the eye, the eyelid being open, for the 1
of about half a minute, or until such time as the PD ,t
feels a little warmth, or the person holding tbetleve
sees the pupil greatly dilated and the vessels of 4'4 the

The LORD CHANCELLO
.• .• occasion one of the defendants was taken in the act of
: ' '

attempting to swear to a fictitious qualification. This
circumstance created suspicion, an inquiry was insti-
tuted, and a number of persons who had presented them-
selves to poll, were found to have voted several times.
There were various ways in which the rights of the
citizens had been violated on that occasion. The dead
or absent were personated. In the confusion necessarily
attendant upon the bustle of an election, it was distinctly
ascertained that 150 attempts of this sort were made.
Personation was extensively mixed up with bribery,
thus perverting an election, which should be the result
of free choice. There were two defendants in particular,
to whom he should refer, whose case was marked by pe-
culiar turpitude. One of the defendants was detected in
the actual commission of the offence ; by means
of the revelations which that person had made,
a clue was obtained to the entire conspiracy,
and which had led to the presentproceedings. The credit
to which that individual might be entitled was, a question
for the Jury to decide. They would find that a consider-
able number of persons who were from home had been
personated. The defendants assembled at a public louse
and then arranged the conspiracy for which they were in-
dicted. Of the guilt of these parties, of their assembling
at this house, and of the arrangements they entered into
there could be no doubt. There were two defendants,
M`Namara and Simpson, who stood prominently forward
on this occasion. M`Namara was a respectable coach
proprietor, Simpson also was a man in a respectable sta-
tion of life. There were two other defendants, who,
under the superintendence of M`Namara, took an active
part in those transactions. The other defendants were in
in humble life, and appeared to have had no hesitation
to damn their souls by wholesale perjury. Their pecu-
niary interest in the transaction, however, amounted to
no more than eight or ten shillings. The City of Lon-
don had undertaken this prosecution solely from motives
of duty. This case was too notoriously flagrant to be
passed over, and it was for the Jury to say how many of
the defendants were obnoxious to the charge. If the defen-
dants, on inquiry, should be found innocent, the City
of London ought, nevertheless, to have instituted this
prosecution, seeing the materials of which they were in
possession. If, on the contrary, the defendants should
be found guilty, that justice which this Court
and the country demanded at the hands of the jury.
would, he had no doubt, be fearlessly administered,
The Learned Counsel then proceeded to call his wit-
nesses.
Alderman Lainson, Mr. Perkins, Mr. Moulding, Mr.
Valentine, Mr. Secondary James, and ,Mr. Secondary
Potter, severally deposed to the facts ,of the vacancy in
the office of Bridgemaster, of., the issuing of the writ
of the holding of the election, of the declaration of the
show of hands in favour' .of Mr. David Gibbs, of a poll
having been demanded, or the poll having been taken,
and of the return of Igr; Gibbs. The Secondaries pro-
duced the poll-hoc:ilia', to which, however, many parties
had had access in the absence of the Secondaries, in con-
sequence of an order of the Court of Aldermen.
Daniel Richard Hacker had been one of the poll-clerks
at the election for Bridgemaster, and administered either
an path or an affirmation to each person who voted. All
the entries in witness's two poll-books are in witness's
handwriting. He has examined the books, and will swear
they are in the same condition in which he delivered
them up to the Secondary at the conclusion of the elec-
tion, except that certain tickets have been inserted where
there are supposed to be fictitious votes.
The other poll-clerks employed at the election, gave
similar testimony as to the correctness of their respective
books.
On the cross-examination of Hacker by Mr. Payne, it
appeared that the name of Reynolds had been struck out,
because the person voting under that name was neither a
freeman nor a liveryman—the person, whose real name
was Morris, was then given into custody, and committed
by Sir George Carroll for perjury.
