TALLOW MARKET.

Prices of Russian were supported, but the market presented
a quiet alma and but few purchases were made. 475. was
the value of P. Y. Candle on the spot, and 483. 3d. for deli-
very in last three months.
TEA MARKET.

The demand for Free Trade was limited, but holders
were firm, and obtained full rates. The speculative market
was dull ; Company's Congou offered freely at 2s. cash. Large
public sales have been declared.
SUGAR MARKET.

The demand has been extremely limited, with prices on the
decline. Brown West India was 575. to 60s. ; low to fine
yellow, 61s. to 69s per cwt. Stccks much larger than last year.
FRUIT MARKET.

Currants dull of sale, and prices on the decline. Common
Raisins, however, met a fair sale, both for home use and export.

THE LATE GLASGOW FORGERIES.— Gavin
Scott, the mercantile clerk, who absconded from Glas-
gow, after committing forgeries to the amount of
8,6001., had been traced to Southampton by Forrester,
the Mansion-house officer, and a principal of the house,
assisted by Terry, the active Southampton officer. They
have ascertained that he left London on Thursday, the
231 ult., by the night mail train, nd slept that night in
't
Southampton. The next day h started to Havra by
the Calpe steam-vessel, hav:Nng as. med the name of
Douglas. He had with him in gol the whole of the
money. He was seen at Havre two days ago, and For.
rester and the gentleman from Glasgow startc:d in pur-
suit by steamer, yesterday, and we have no 'drnbt they
will effect his capture.—Hampshire Independent. _ _

NOVEL EXCUSE.—Upon the 'lathes: of the
Petty Jurors being called over at the Central Criminal
Court yesterday, one individual claimed an exemption
from serving on the ground that he was a baker. The
Recorder said he was not aware of any Act of Parlia-
ment under which he could claim the exemption. The
applicaut said that bakers were exempt by a Charter of
Queen Elizabeth. The Recorder requested him to pro-
duce the charter, and as he was unable to do so, he was
ordered, amid the laughter of the Court, to take his seat
in the bar with the rest of the Jury.

I NOVEL RECIPE.—It was stated at a late meet-
ing here that one of our publicans, suffering from excessive
drinking, called on the doctor. The doctor ordered him
gravely not to drink more than two bottles of gin a day ; that
he should put a bean into them every morning, and if he
always used the same bottles, would certainly recover when
they were full of beans, The publican acted accordingly and
was restored.—Strffigh Chronicle.
IRISHMEN IN CHINA.—ADMIRAL QUAN.—
Another-Irishman,-.-a near relation of Mr. Quan, of
Marlborough-green, conchmaker—has fallen under the
British fire. BVe regret to see Irishmen in foreign ser-
vice ; but it will he great consolation to his relations here,
that the Chinese Admiral died on the field (q waters ?)
of glory, and that his obsequies were saluted by twenty-
one guns from her Majesty's vessels of war. We should
mention that the British interpreters have made a strange
mistake in spelling the name Kwan, whereas it should
be e.s we have written it, Quan ; but as the Chinese have
no letters, but write in a certain phonetic character, we
are not so much surprised at the mistake, and particularly
as the letters in either combination are omophenous. It
is not a little re.narkab'c that Quan has been succeeded
by Quin—a blood relation, we understand, of Lord Dun-
ravan, of Limerick —Dublin Evening Post.
GRAND SHINNY MATCH.—We understand
that on Friday first the ISth inst., the Members of the Society
of True Highlanders are to play a Grand Shinny match at
Copenhagen Howe.. As -the 'layers in this interesting- and
exciting game will, no doubt, be (tressed in the national con.
tunic, the lovers of novelty should attend and the admirers of
manly exercise, and well contester) games should avail them-
selves of this opportunity of witnessing one of the most ancient
and characteristic of the gam-es of the sister country.
SABBATH TRAVELLING ON THE DUNDEE
AND ARBROATH RAILWAY.—The General Assembly's
deputation, accompanied by deputations from the Glas-
gow and Edinburgh Railway, Sabbath Sessional Union,
from the Scottish Lord's-clav Society, and from Ar-
broath, waited on the shareholders of the Dundee and
Arbroath Railway, at their annual meeting, appointed
by statute, which was held at Dundee on WednesdLy,
the 2d instant, the objet of the deputations being to re-
monstrate against travelling on the Sabbath-day. After
they had been heard, a vote was taken for the following
nsolution, which was carried by a majority of votes :
" That the'partners disapprove of the use of railways for
any purposes. on the Lord's-day, and agree to memo-
rialize the Postmaster-G-eneral to relieve them from car-
rying the Royal mail on that day."—G:asgow Herald.

GREAT BALLOT 'MEETING OF
THE REFOR)2ERS.

A great meeting or the Reformers of the Borough cf
Marylebone was held this clay at the Theatre of the
Colosseum, Regent's Park, for the purpose of taking a
ballot to determine which of the two Liberal Candidates,
Sir Charles Napier, or .:Nitr. G. A. Young, should retire
from-the approaching contest. The arrangements made
by the Joint Committee appOinted to take the ballot,
were such as were apparently well calculated to secure a
fair estimate of the sense of the electors; but complaints
were made this morning that, through some failure of the
Post-office arrangements, many Reform electors had not
received, their letters or ballot-earls. Before the time
appointed for taking the chair upwards of 800 electors
were assembled, and the side-boxes of this spacious
theatre were filled with elegantly- dressed ladies.
The Chair was taken at two o'clock,by Mr. Protheroe,
the Member for Halifax, who was greeted with enthusias-

tic cheering.
The CHAIRMAN said that he would not detain the
meeting a moment with any refereoce to himself, further
than to thank them for the distinguished honour con-
ferred on him by electing him to the Chair, and to
assure them that he had a perfect sense of the respons,i-
•bility of the office, and he would discharge the duties
with strict impartiality.—(Cheers.) He might now thank
them for the assistance which he had received from them
in his 'endeavours to obtain the papers of the
Vestry Act.—(Cheer:.) Their cond act in electing him
to the chair reminded him of the pract ice which prevailed
in the small Italian, states, of choosing a podesta, or go-
vernor from distant provinces, ita. order to secure
impartiality in the government: ---(hear.) But the
(lectors of Marylebene hed gone to Halifax for their
chairman of this day—(Cheers and iseighter)—and he as-
sured them that they should not be disappointed in their
expectations of an impartial p )desta.—(Laughter.)
He begged simply to.state that the ;meeting was assem-
bled to select a proper candidate to start. with Sir Ben-
jamin Hall. They were to decide which of the two was
to be their candidate at the ensuing election. Be-
fore he sat down he hoped .he might be per-
mitted to state, as an old Member of Parliament for his
years, to compliment them upon their conduct on the
present occasion, and to contrast it with that of the elec-
tors of the suburbs of London, before the passing of the
Reform Act. The only electors .at the time residing in
the suburbs of London were the outvoters of the differ-
ent boroughs, who gave their votes fbr the purpose of
exciting mere fun and merriment, and who were of
opinion that the less the •primaiple the better the pay.—
(Cheers.) Their conduct, now they were enfranchised
contrasted most favourably with that of the outvoters.
They were now to proceed to their choice, and by their
conduct that day they were exhibiting to the electors of
the kingdom an example of dignity, firmness, and princi-
ple. They did not wish to put eitieer of their candidates
to any useless expense, and they were carrying out their
principles without needless display. It was now for
them to determine which of the two should be the candi-
date chosen to fight the Tory candidates, and, as far as
his humble efforts went, nothing; should be wanted to
carry out the object they had in view.
Sir CHARLES NAPIER was -then introduced by the
Chairman, and was received with loud cheers. When
the cheering had subsided, the Gallant Commodore
spoke as follows :—Gentlemen, your Honourable Chair-
man has so clearly explained to yon the objects of this
meeting, that it is quite unnecessary for me to say a
word more on the subject ; I shalltherefore proceed at once
to explain the reason why I come fisrward as a candidate
for the borough of Marylebone, -to ask you for your votes
to elect me as your Member in the ensuing Parlia-
ment.—(Cries of " Hear, hear," and cheers.) I knew
full well that Sir Benjamin Hall was your Repre-
sentative in the Liberal interest. I knew that Mr.
Young was a candidate for your suffrages.—(Cheers.)
I found that this was the fourth time that Mr. Young
had come forward.—(Cries of " No, no, and Yes, yes.")
The first time Mr. Young came forward he did not go to
the poll, but he published his address. In 1833 Mr. Young
went to the poll and polled 378 votes; in 1837 he went to the
poll and polled 764 votes. In 1838 Mr. Young supported
Colonel Thompson (Cries of " Ali, •all ! " and cheers)
and polled 168 votes, and the Tory candidate, as
you well know, became your representative.—(Hear.)
Now, Gentlemen, it was to avoid this evil that I came
forward to offer myself to your notice.—(Cheers.) At
the public meetings I attended every effort was
made on the other side to confound and confuse them ;
but I believe there was no gentleman present who will
not admit that I carried very large majorities throughout
all these public meetings.—(Cheers, and cries of
"Yes'," " No.") These meeting.; were very numerously
attended, and in some cases there were 400 or 500 electors
who could not obtain admittance. These are the rea-
sons why I come forward to ask your suffrages, and I am
now here because I have declared, that if I thought
Mr. Young had the smallest hope or chance of
being returned I should instantly retire.—
(Cries of hear, hear, and " very honourable.") Gen-
tlemen, a few days afterwards I received a
letter from Mr. Young, proposing a public
meeting., at the same time admitting that it was
impossible to exclude non-electors. I thought it of so
much importance that I laid the letter before my
Committee. They proposed what would have
saved a great deal of - expense and trouble
had it been adopted. They proposed that Mr.
Young should choose one elector, and myself an-
other, to go round the several districts, and take the sense
of the voters.—(Hear.) That was not acceded to, and
the measure which has now brought you together
was agreed upon. Gentlemen, all I ask is to be allowed to
state plainly what my opinions are ; and I do trust and
hope that my opponents will not pervert those opi-
nions, or put words into my mouth which I never
used.—(Loud cheers.) They will scarce be able to do
that, because if a man speaks the truth he
is sure to be right, and if he tells falsehoods he
must have a good memory to be able to en-
surer them. I. have accused of being favourable to
the Poor-laws, but at the first meeting I attended I dis-
tinctly stated that I had been two years absent from
England, and did .-not know how the Poor-laws
worked, but that I would tell them how it had
worked in the district in which I was a guar-
dian.—(Cheere.)_ We insisted on the old and infirm
poor being relieved out of doors in their own houses—
(Loud cheers)—and that those who were compelled to
take refuge in the workhouses, should be treated
kindly, and in the same manner as they treated
the inmates of Chelsea and Greenwich Hospitals.
I have attended numbers of meetings where I have fre-
quently expressed my opinion of the operation of thePoor-
law, and yet am again called on to express those opinions.
Gentlemen, there is another question asked Of me,
one which, as a naval-military man, I feel called
upon more immediately to answer—the aboli-
tion of corporal punishment. That question de-
pends not upon the admiral, the . captain, or the officer
to effect its abolition, but more properly upon the
Government to give better pay, and thuS gain
a higher class of men to serve in our army and navy.
Now, Gentlemen, I might have gained a few stray votes
if, like my opponent, I pledged.myself to vote for the
abolition of corporal punishment ; but, Gentlemen, he
who oars this pledge has never seen 400 or 500 men
of various degrees of character in the operations of war-
fare—in the storm of the battle, when the worthless will
skulk below—or perhaps he would be more chary
in the • assertion that corporal punishment can
be dispensed with ; but, - Sir, all other men would
be most anxious for its abolition, if it was consistent •
with the effici( ncy of the Army and Navy.—
(Loud cheers.) Bit I will never run the risk, when
France and Russ'a have large fleets assembled, for the
sake of a few sta ay votes to endanger' the safety of the
bulwarks of tl is c mntry. I have also . stated that
I am an r dvocate for the vote:, by ballot,
and with real ect to the assertion, thatr said I thought
the extension of the suffrage would rather be an evil
than °there ise, I must calf attention to the
fact, that in the borough— of Marylebone we
we have no less than 32,000 10/. householoers, and yet
from the non-payment of' poor-rates, intimidation, and
various other causes, the actual number who voted
was comparatively etrifling, and would be so until
protected by the Ballot.—(Hear, hear.) There
has been another charge brought against me ; that I at
presentaliold a commission in he Majesty's navy, and
am, therefore, unfitted to represent this borough
in Parliament. Gentlemen, I think it would
be rather a severe conclusion to form, that
because of being a naval cfficer, I was only fit,
as Mr. Young has expressed himself, to look after the
guns and aaile of a man-of-war. I have been forty years
in the service of my country, and, therefore, I
think I may lay claim to some distinction.—(Loud
cheers.) It is well known that but for the officers of the
navy, and its discipline, you would have Lean
at war with France at the present moment,
and therefore it Pitaot too much for an officer of the navy
to claim your suffrage;.--(Cheers.) It has been confi-
dently-stated in the borough that I still held my command
in the Mediterranean. To this I answer, that on the
31st of March I was ordered to st:ike my pennant, and
am now as independent as any one of you.
Again, it is said that I am seeking after
command ; this again is false. But I do say, that if
called upon to. serve my country, I would at once
seek the breach, and resign my. seat in the
House.—(Hear, and cheers.) There is another topic
to which I would wish to address myself, and that is,
the impressment of men to serve in the navy—a prac-
tice disgraceful to an enlightened nation like England.
Many applications have I made, for the last thirty years,
to Members in the House to wipe away the plague-
spot of the English statute-book, but in vain.
On the subject of the rate-paying clauses of the Reiman
Bill, I have always declared my aversion to them.—
(Cheers.) They are unjust and unnecessary clogs upon
the franchise.—(Cheers.) If it be right to punish a
man for not paying his taxes, some other mode should
be found without depriving him of his suffrage.—(Cheers
and great applause.) I was yesterday at the g,Te it meeting
held in the city of London by the friends °Mord J.Russell ;
and I never saw a more respectable weang in my life.—
(Cheers.) Lord John Russell thoroughiy. and clearly ex-
plained to the electors the reasons which led to the deter-
mination to dissolve Parliament. The necessLies which had
arisen, for an increase of the navy had caused expenses
to which the revenue was inadequate, ancl Government
thought •it better, instead of haying on new taxes,
to reduce the duties on corn, ✓ timber, and sugar.—
(Cheers.) Lord John Russell (deo declared that
the Corn-laws imposed a tax upon the people
equal to the whole . revenue of the country
—(Hear)—a tax which benefited only the landlords, and
was paid by the poor instead of .the rich.-With respect to

the 'present contest here, ~I assure you that nobody
