MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of February 19 )
SUGAR.—Te-day.an improvement took place in the value
of nearly all descriptions of raw Sugar, the demand being
active, and the quantity on offer not so large. There was a
good desire shown to operate in all sorts of West India, and
the rates offered were fullypialbto those of Friday last;
but business was much checked the scanty supply at
market, and only 130 hhds were SOII
REFINED.—To-day further reduced rates were taken for
Refined Goods. Bonded Crushed Sugar is with difficulty to
be had under 36s for first quality.
MAURITIUS.—Thin afternoon the
the quantity of Mauritius
Sugar offered at public sale was very large, and amounted to
11,387 bags and 125 casks, the chief part of which consisted
of the better qualities of yellow. Refiners and grocers were
desirous to operate, and the whole sold at a rise on Tuesday's
rates of 6d to la per cwt.
EAST lxma.—This afternoon 48; bags Bengal Sugar were
offered at public sale, and sold at stiffer rates. Privately
several parcels of all sorts of Bengal were sold, and, in most
cases, at rather higher rates.
Foastax.—To-day there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar; and the chief operations in Java for the week are two
floating cargoes of about 1,000 tons on account of the Dutch
Trading Company, at 33s in bond, the buyers paying bond-
ing charges, and supposed to be taken for refining. To-day
190 cases of brown Bahia sold at 24s Gd.
COFFEE.—This afternoon there was no public sale of any
kind of Coffee; and privately the home trade operated with
much caution. There are sellers of Native Ceylon of good
ord. clean quality- at 41s to 42s per cwt.
COCOA.—For British plantation further advanced rates being
insisted upon, operated materially against business, and 259
bags of Trinidad at auction, were nearly all taken in at high
prices.
CORN.—Flour moved off slowly at Monday's rates. Oats
were the turn lower.
Rics.—To-day there was less desire evinced to operate in
all descriptions of Rice by private contract; but in prices lit-
tle variation took place. At public sale 70 casks Carolina
were sold. This afternoon tke large quantity of 1,350 boxes
of Cassia Lignea was sold at 23 per cwt advance; first pile
fetched 63s 6d to 655, second pile of good quality 60s to 60s
6d, third pile, low middling 55s 6d to 565, mouldy 55s 6d
to 58s.
spin/v.—The demand has been extremely limited for all
descriPtions of Jamaica Rum this week, and holders are more
inclined to sell, East India met with little attention, End
proof Calcutta with certificate was offered at 3s 9d. For
Leeward Island the demand has been •trifling., Demerara of
strong quality is held for 5s 2d to 5s 6d, but little has been
done. Brandy is not cheaper, but the demand has fallen off.
Prices rule arm.

POLYPHONY.

Mr. Love, the celebrated Pol.) phonist, on Wednesday
evening entertained a numerous and respectable audience
Pat Crosby Hall, Bisho sgate-street by the exhibition of
his extraordinary feats of ventriloquism and polyphony.
The pieces selected for the exhibition of his talents were
"A Voyage to Hamburgh" and "A Christmas Party in
the Olden Time." In the former piece the characters,
selected from the miscellaneous group of deck and cabin
passengers of the steamer, were of the most amusing
description, and their c3loquial peculiarities admirably
hit off. In the latter piece the transformations were
most rapid and successful, and called forth at each
change the cheers and hearty laughter of the audience.
The performer changed from " a military officer" to " a
serving lad," from the serving lad to a " West India
gentleman," from that personage into a " fashionable and
loquacious young lady. They eung lady was trans-
muted into " an old lady," who in turn resolved herself
into "a servant," the servant intoold
andgentleman
"
and, finally, the old gentleman into the talented
amusing lecturer himself.
The curious power of ventriloquism was most ex-
cellently shown in a conversation between Mr. Lcive and
an imaginary bricklayer, who was supposed to he on the
roof of the building. The deception was most perfect,
and the " oral perspective" of distance (as the lecturer
styled it) most clearly defined. The performance is an-
nounced for repetition next Wednesday, an
tod weend cor-
dially recommend any person wishing sp a
lea -an' evening to avail ihem,elves ot th, ot,portunity
p , . I l
of witnessing Love's encertaiutneuts Ilf poly pho„y.

Mr. MUITI72 presented a petition from merchants and

The Hon. Member gave notice that on Monday ho
should move that the petition be printed.

VICE-CHANCERY.7-(THIS.DAY.)

His Honour the Vice-Chancellor Of England took causes
to-day, but nothing of any public interest came before the
Cuurt during the whole morning.
(Before Vice-Chancellor Sir J. WIGRAM.)
BUTLIN V. MASTERS.

This was a motion for a new trial. The plaintiff was the
vicar of St. Sepulchre, Northampton, and claimed ex• officio
to be entitled to certain vicarial dues, which it was alleged
were not properly belonging to the vicarage.
There was nothing of any public interest in the case.
His HONOUR delivered judgment to -day, and refused to
grant the motion, but directed the costs to be reserved.
Leave was given to mention the subject again.
DAWSON V. PAVER AND OTHERS.

The plaintiff in this cause was the lord of the manor of
Oswestry, in Shropshire, and also the owner of an
estate on the manor of something less than one
thbusand- acres. This estate was bounded by lands
called,Oxgangand Cliff Common, which belonged to the de-
fendants. Before the Act for draining these grounds was
passed the defendants' property was drained by an ancient
aqueduct running through the plaintiff's estate. That
Act empowered the commissioners (the defendants), who
immediately commenced draining their lands. The
plaintiff filed a bill to restrain the defendants from
proceeding with their operations, on the ground that
his estate would be completely flooded. His Honour then
refused to restrain the plaintiffs generally, but made a modi-
fied order. The matter was eventually referred to a jury,
and a verdict was obtained by the plaintiff.
His HONOUR delivered judgment to-day in the cause, and
after going through the evidence, decreed that the plaintiff
was entitled to the costs, with the exception of those for
two applications, and that the defendants were not, in the
exercise of their powers under the Act of Parliament, to do
anything calculated to obstruct the plaintiff's ancient drain ;
also to restrain the defendants from using detrimentally
the water-course or drains mentioned in the pleadings fur
the purpose of draining any water from the same. He did
not think he could proceed further.
London, England, 1847-02-20

BLACK CAT.

Mr. MUNTZ said as he had not had the opportunity
of bring forward his motion on this particular, he would
take the earliest opportunity of doine so.
DUKE OF BRUNSWICK.
Mr. DUNCOMBE postponed his motion on the in-
jury sustained by the Duke of Brunswick from the
violation of the 63d article of the Treaty of Vienna, till
Thursday week.
BRITISH MUSEUM.
Mr. HUME complained of what appeared to him to
be the irresponsibility of that institution to the public, an
institution to which they had been voting yearly from
40,000/. to 50,0001 An election had taken place in
that body of a person, no doubt worthy to be con-
nected with the institution ; but what he com-
plained of was, that the departments of science and
natural history were not properly represented. He had
formerly moved for a committee of inquiry, and was
opposed by the Government, but he now positively inti-
mated that he would not accede to any vote of money
unless something satisfactory was done in reference to it.
Lord J. RUSSELL said the subject was under the
consideration of her Majesty's Government.
LABOURING POOR (IRELAND) BILL.
On the motion that the House go into Committee on
this Bill,

Mr. .H. BAILLIE said he begged to offer
a few words, in consequence of a Inisrepresention
that had been made. with respect to some observations
of his. He (Mr. Baillie) was represented to have stkited,
in answer to a question of the Noble Lord the Member for
Lynn, that, as a Scotch representative, he would not
vote English money to relieve Irish distress. The
Noble Lord had repudiated that on the part of Scotland.
He (Mr. Baillie) also repudiated such an expres-
sion, and he would be ashamed to have ever made
use wf such. The N.)ble Lord was not satis-
fied with having misrepresented his (Mr. Baillie's)
words, but he took the trouble to inform the

CLERKEN W.ELL.-( T HIS DAY.)

A young German, named John Pohl, who stated duo
he had been resident in this country about five years,
was charged before Mr. Greenwoo,i with ranking an
attempt to shoot Mr. James Allred llaye, tobacconist, ut
34, Red Lion street., Holborn.

Mr. Hiye stated that last night he saw the prisoner
walking up and down before the door of his (witness's)
shop, and owing to the prisoner having on several for-
mer occasions swore that he would take his life, he be-
came alarmed, and previous to closing his shop requested
two constables, who were on duty in the neighbourho. .d,
to kr.ep a close watch upon the prisoner while he (Mr.
Haye) was putting up his shutters. Before closing the
shop, he stood at the door watching the prisoner, when
he saw him half concealed in the recess of a public-
house door, and evidently obeerving him most intensely.
As he (Mr. Ilaye) had put up the first shutter, he heard
the click of a pistol lock, and upon turning round he saw
the prisoner standing at the other side of the street, with
a pistol directed towards him. The two policemen came
up and took the pistol from him. It was found to be
loaded, and the hammer was down.
In reply to Mr. Greenwood, the prosecutor stated that
about twelve months ago he was compelled to exhibit
articles of the peace against the prisoner at the sessions,
in consequence of which he was kept in prison for nearly
six months.
Police constable E 35, produced the pistol which he
took from the prisoner ; it was a brass screw barrel,
and had one of the old flint and steel locks. He also
produced
the charge which had been drawn from it, and
instead of a bullet a round stone was placed over the
powder. The prisoner aimed the pistol directly at Mr.
Hayes.
The prisoner said with much emphasis and determina-
tion of manner, .4 lam sorry I d;d not shoot him long
ago—he knows he has been the ruin of me."
The depositions w' re then made out, and the prisoner
was fully committed to take his trial on the charge of
feloni',u-ly shooting at Mr. Hayes.

LOSS OF THE TVVEi!D.

The foltoNing letter, addressed to theEthtoroappeared
in The 7 imes to-day
" Sir,-1 hope that the rapid breakingup of tliw Tweed
steamer, a wood-built ship, and the consequent dreadful
10,5 of' life, will be contrasted in the public mind with
the 11,.1ding together for six months (and probably until
got off), and the consequent preservation of every soul
en board, of the Great Britain steamer, au iron-
built ship.

A comparison of the situation of the grounding of
the two vessels might probably be favourable to one or
the other ; but under any eircumatinces I am inclined to
believe that hid the Tweed been an iron-built ship,
every soul on board would have been saved, and much,
if not all, of the imperishable part of the cargo also.
From the account in your paper of yesterday, I see
that the b.'ilers, wire!) ar.- of similar construction to an
iron vesbel, are still standing entire.
