4,550, Oats 9,700 quarters ; Flour 3,250 sacks. There is ny
much good Wheat for sale, and the prices of Monday are
fully supported for this article. Barley for malting sells freely,
and readily commands last quotations. Beans and Peas at,.
rather dearer. The weather being ikliarp, occasions a good.
demand for Oats, and they sell freely at Monday's prices.

and owing to the weather setting in cold, last market day'e

Wp inserted the following case before, but iti
justice to Mr. Bishop, who has acted with i 4
much humanity on the occasion, we give it a
place once more, in the hope that some clue mar
be found to discover the unnatural parent :--.
" DESERTED Cilium—About seven mom since a female
advertised for a child to nurse. Shortly after a male infant,
about four months old was brought to her. The terms being
agreed upon, the child was left with a sovereign and a card or
address. Front that time no one has called upon the nUiSe,
and the card of address left turns out to be a false direction.—
The poor woman, unable to support the child, was about.to-
take it to the workhouse, hut calling upon a respectable per-•
sou, and relating the circumstance, he has undertaken to pro-
rvigidxionefored,
the poor deserted infant. It is a fine boy, faii,erra-
light hair, and blue eyes, and is at present under the
protection of Mr. Bt snor, principal officer of lievigate."
ADVICE FROM THE DEA D.—( HOW to Gun!.
Delfne,3.—Mr. Jon FORFEIT, residing at .Fulharn, now in
his eighty-fourth year, has for toe last two years been afflicted
with deafness, which occasionally causes him much 'uneasiness
of spirits, haring all his life been remarkable for his jocularity
and wit. A few nights since he dreamed lie was going oti
with his dogs and his gun (haring been passionately fond of
the sports in his younger days); he met his surgeon, Mr. Chili%
mu, formerly of Bedford-street, Covent-garden, who has
been dead some years, and with his usual familiarity said
to biro, " Griffith, what's good for deafness? I can't hear:'—
The reply was, " Yes, take a Poppy-head and boil it in
water, wash about the ears well with it warm." The old gen-
tleman adopted the advice, and strange to say, the effect ope-
rated in restoring his hearing for two or three days to p(eec:.ion,
but afterwards the deafnessretnrried, and ax before, he is a 'raid
going out of the house, having a dread of being run Over.
al SSECTIO N OF THE BODY OF TH URT ELL.—
The crowds in front of the Hospital, in which the
dissection is going on, continue so great, that:the
Magistrates have been applied to for an addi-
tional number of constables to protect the public
against outrage arid robbery. .
JOSEPH HUNT.--We understand that it has
been determined by Hs Majesty's Government
to commute the sentence of html,ln for the mureer
of Mr. WEARE, from death to transportation for
life. No intimation of this merciful intenti, n
has, as yet, been given to Hunt, who, to uve the
words of the Chaplain of the Gaol, is " deploi.
ably low-spirited."—(Turning Chronicle.) .
PR OBERT.—ThiS man has had the jrnpod.4 nce
to appear on the Royal Exchairge,and to addre:.:.;
a Wine-merchant whom he had known before
1
his late exposure. It is scarcely necessary to
say that his salute was received with contempt.
