His LORDSHIP refused the motion in this case, hut or
dered the costs to be costs in the cause.

GUILDHALL-(THIS DAY.)

A great number of persons were placed at tl,e bar, be-
fore Mr. Alderman Pirie, charged with passing counterfeit
coin in various- pal ts of the City.
Mr. Field, the Mint Inspector, appeared to prosecute.
A young man, named Richards, dressed as a butcher,
was charged by Mr. Houston, a stati mer in Aldersgate-
street, with endeavouring to pass a bad ss. piece.
Mr. Houston's shopman stated that the prisoner came
into the shop, and asked for a 101. receipt-stamp, in
payment of which ha tendered the crown-piece. Witness
recollected having got some had coin from a person like
the prisoner, and upon examining the money be found it
to be bad. He was then given into custody.
The prisoner, in his defence, said he was sent by a gen-
tleman, whom he met in Whitechdpel-market, to buy the
stamp, bat could not say when he could see him again.—
Committed fir trial.

A rough looking-rellow, haring the appearance of a
bricklayer's labourer, was placed at the bar on a similar
charge.
The constable stated that on the prisoner being given
into Liz custody for passing a bad crown piece, be searched
him, but could find nothing; observing a peculiar appear-
ance about his mouth, witness and another constable opened
it, but could perceive nothing in it. He was proceeding with
him to the Compter, when the prisoner got suddenly quite
black in the face, and his throat frightfully swollen, and,
after retching violently for some time, the ss. piece
dropped from his mouth.
The prisoner was a well-known smash2r, and he was
fully committed for trial.

THE MARKETS.--(THIS DAY.)
CORN EXCHANGE.

This week's supplies have been small of all sorts of Grain.
The Wheat trade was firm at Monday's prices, with little
doing. Barley nearly unsaleable. Beans and Peas unvaried.
Oats found buyers slowly at their former value. Flour not
much in demand this week.

SMITHFIELD MARKET.
The supply was moderate. The. demand for Beef being
brisk, every description fully realised 2d. per stone advance.
The demand for Mutton was good, but not in any way to af-
fect Monday's prices. The trade for Veal was not so good as
it was last market day. Every kind of Pork met with a ready
sale.—Beasts, 492 ; Sheep, 2,460 ; Pigs, 433; Calves, 163.
Beef, 3s. 4d. to 4s. Bd. per stone ; Mutton, 4s 4d. to ss. 6d.;
Veal, 4s. Bd. to 6s. ; Pork, 4s. to ss.
COLONIAL MARKET.
There was no public sale, and by private treaty the amount
of business was limited ; prices were however firm for most
articles, and the imports were light.
TEA MARKET.
The demand was steady, and former rates were fully sup-
ported. In Company's Congou several sales were made at
Is. 7d. cash. Public sales take place next week.
TALLOW MARKET.
Prices of Russian 'Fallow on the decline, the demand being
dull and the stock on hand large ; sellers of P. Y. C. at 455. 6d.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S-YESTERDAY.

Corona'ion's victory at Warwick, although over a mod, rate
field of horses, was achieved with so much ease, that he im-
me liately became first favourite for tt.e Derby, at little more
than half the odds laid in town on Monday ; one bet, we be-
lieve, was made yesterday at 11 to 1, but the current offers
against him did not exceed 9 to 1, at which figure none of his
friends would do business. The Rosalie colt was not men-
tioned at a price, but may be guessed at 12 to 1; and Eringo
was almost a dead letter tilt six o'clock, when 14 to 1 was
betted to 1001. Ralph did not maintain the improvement no-
ticed in our report of Monday's proceedings; and the feeling
against Palatmon was so far from favourable, that 25 to I was
laid twice, and (after an even 500 had been laid) offers made
to take Ralph against him, without finding a customer. Bel-
grade and Knightsbridge joined the 40 to 1 lot, and were
backed in fifties, the Knightsbridge party offering to go on.
Ermengardis found favour at the same price and amount ; ditto
Sadler's lot, notwithstanding the defeat of Perfection at War-
wick. Beyond an advance in one of the extreme outsiders
(Mosque), the betting, which was extremely flat, presents no
other feature of any interest. Subjoined are the closing prices
of the few favourites backed, or otherwise noticed in the course
of the afternoon :
