The supply of Beasts here to-day being somewhat ex-
tensive as to number even, the time of year considered,
the weather very unfavourable to slaughtering, and the
attendance of buyers small, the Beef trade was in a very
depressed state, at a decline on Monday's quotations of
quite 2d per 81bs, and a clearance was not effected.
There were in the market 420 Oxen and Cows, 680
Sheep, and 87 Calves, from abroad. With Sheep we
were scantily supplied; nevertheless, the inquiry for that
description of stock was heavy, at barely stationary
prices—the best old Downs with difficulty producing
5s 2d per !Vbs. Prime small Calves moved off steadily,
at full prices: Otherwise, the Veal trade was dull, and
the rates had a doe award tendency. Pigs were a slow
sale, but not cheaper. Mitch Cows were quoted at from
151 to 181 each, including their small calf.

abundant than for some time past, and the prices of

ever, mostly selling at about last week's quotations; but
all other kind of Hops—both old and new—may be

a transaction has taken place. Sussex pockets, 2114 s

East Kent, ditto, 31 3s to 51 7s per cwt.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
(Siitinks al Nisi Prius—Btforo Mr. Justice ERLE and a

Common Jury.)
S3IITTI V. TRUE/IT.
This was an action brought to recover 2751., money
had and received for the use of the plaintiff.
Mr. Charnock appeared for the plaintiff, and liff-
Crowder for the defendant.
The plaintiff was the executor of a man named Smith,
and the sister in-law of the testator. It would appear
from the evidence that the wife of the testator and the
defendant were sisters, and their deceased father lea
each of them a legacy of 3001. Oa the death of Mrs.
Smith her husband handed over her 3001. to the defen-
dant, to be kept until he should think proper to recall
it. Shortly afterwards he died, leaving the plaintiff hill
executor, and the present action was brought to re-
cover the balance, 2751.
The defence was that the money was held in trust
for he benefits of the children of the testator.

The jury returned a verdict for the defendant.

SECONDARIES.-(THIS SAY

(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER.)

JONES V. BRAND.
The plaintiff in this action is a wholesale tobacconist
in Moorgate-street, City, and defendant is a shopkeeper
at Northampton. The action was brought to recover
the sum of V. Its. for goods sold.
The defendant suffered judgment to go by default.
A letter was put in trom defendant :Omitting the
receipt of the goods, and two letters were tendered ag
evidence written by a partner of the defendant's tit‘
torney, in which an objection was taken that the action
ought to have been brought in the County Court.
The Learned SECONDARY held that letters from l
partner could not be admitted, unless his name appesreu
cn the record. If there was any value in the objection
it must be made to the Court above.
The jury accordiogly gave a verdict for the straouilS
claimed.
