has been obtained for middling sorts. For Pekoe
Teas the demand is on the increase, and prices continue
to improve, while the supply is on the decrease. The
public sales of 7,200 pkgs went off briskly; the large
proportion of 6,000 finding buyers at fully previous
quotations. To-day full rats s were insisted upon, but
there was not much passing in Black or Green.
RICE.—To-day there was little passing privately in
East India Rice, and of 2,985 bags of Madras at public
sale a part only found buyers at rather lower rates—
good pinky white went at 10s to 10s 6d, good middling
9s 6d, isle pearl Barley 9s 6d to 108, and damaged 3s 6d
to 93 per cwt. The chief portion of the sound white was
taken in at 10s per cwt.
COCOA.—This afternoon tb e quantity of Brasil offered
at ,public sale amounted to 1,177 bags, and the whole
was taken in at 375 to 38s for good grey, and at 36s
for middling, being above the value, but two lots of fine
red Bahia were sold at 37s per cwt.
SPIRITS.—There is still a desire on the part of the
home trade to get supplied with all kinds of Jamaica
Rum, and exporters have been purchasers to a fair
extent. Holders manifest more firmness, and less freely
supply the market, whilst an advance in prices of Id to 2d
per gallon has occurred. The sales are 250 puns since
our last report 33 to 35 per cent over proof of plain
quality at 3s 8d to 3s 9sl ; 36 to 38 over better quality
3s 9d to 3s 10d, and small parcels of fine 48 to 4s 4d.
Demerara has been in good request, and prices are
firmer; 200 puns having been sold. East India is in much
better request, and prices assumed an upward tendency,
Leeward Island is held with firmness, and the sales are
200 puns at is 7d to is 8d proof strength; there are
large buyers rather under these rates. Havannah is
yet little required; still holders will not accept former
rates. Geneva has been sold to a fair extent at 2s 7d to
2s 8d for shipping sort, and at 3e to 3s 6d for fine,
fit for duty. For British made Spirits the demand is
morel active, and prices are firmer. The deliveries of
Brandy continue upon a large scale, and holders have
confidence. A good demand has been experienced. To-
day
,Rum was in good request, and stiffer rates were
obtained.
SPICES.—For Cloves the demand is brisker, and prices
are well sustained. 411 bags of Bourbon at auction
were all sold. Privately, Penang has been disposed of
at is 3d to Is 10d, and Ambovna 9d to Is. Cassia
Lignea is little required, and prices tend down-
wards, although the supply is small. Of
Cassia Buds, 6 chests at auction were taken
in at 1005. Cinnamon is little required, and the ten-
dency of prices downwards. The quantity declared for
public sale is 720 bales of Ceylon. Ginger is little
required. Pepper met with attention privately, and
2,643 bags at auction went I higher. Pimento sells
more freely. Of Maae 6 cases Penang were mostly take*
in at 2s 8d for good middling, and at 2s 4d for low mid.:
ding. 12 cases Bencoolen Cloves, fine is 9d to is 10t1,
geed 1a 7d, ordinary Is 2d. The market is quiet for
Nntmegs.
SALTPETRE.—Tho business concluded by private
treaty has been of little moment by exporters or the
home trade, and previous rates are with difficulty sup-
ported. The value of Calcutta for home consumption
is 30s to 32s according to quality. The rates asked for
British refined are still 35s 6d to 36s per cwt, but the
amount of business concluded has been of little moment.
For Nitrate of Soda there is a mach better demand,
prices have advanced from 14s to 14s 6d.
Ores.—The arrivals of Fish Oils have been small
since this day week, whereas the deliveries continue
satisfactory. On the part of holders there is firmness,
and they supply the market sparingly, but the demand is
not so good. In consequence of the small stock of
Southern holders require 291 to 321 for good to fine
quality, and 261 to 281 for low and middling, but the
sales made are of little moment. The market is quiet for
Seal—pale a small supply, others plentiful. Cod is only in
moderate request at 24/ 155 to 251 per ton. Sperm is
held with firmness, and at 811 to 831 purchases to a fair
extent have been made in good and fine quality.
Prices are not higher for Linseed Oil, but the
home trade have been large purchasers, and sales
to a fair extent were made by exporters, whilst the
supply is lees plentiful. The rates paid on the
spot at 23s 6d to 23s 9d per cwt. For forward delivery
several sales were conluded at 245 to 245 3d. Rapeseed
Oil is in good request, still there is no improvement to
notice in the value, although the deliveries are still ex-
ceeding the arrivals. In Palm a good business has been
concluded. Cocoa Nut is yet little required, and prices
tend downwards.
TALLOw.—To-day there was less activity in the Tallow
market, and prices are not so firm, fine P.Y. Candle on
the spot selling at 47s 3d to 47s 6d.

opposers.
Dr. ADDAMS, in the absence of Sir Fitzroy Kelly,
then proceeded to address the Court in support of the
rule. In reply to the arguments which had been
brought before the Court by his Learned Friends on
the other side, he would call the attention to the mode of
electing bishops prior to the canon law, and during its
continuance down to the present time. He did not
think that by the present proceeding they were at all
calling in question the prerogative of the Crown any
more than if the Crown, possessing the right of pre-
sentation to a living, should appoint a person to
such living, and that the bishop of the diocese
should prior to his consecration entertain an inquiry
into the fitness of such person. Long anterior to the
passing of the canon law, it was the custom of
hearing parties previous to the confirmation of the
bishop elect. In support of his opinion the
Learned Doctor referred to various extracts
from the works of Lancelotus. The extracts
selected did not, however, appear in any of
the editions of that work quoted from by
the other side, it appearing that they were of consi-
derably later date. The election of Cardinal Pole
was by conge d'elire, and he was confirmed in
the usual manner at Bow Church. From the reign of
Elisabeth there were numerous documents upon record
showing what was the actual state of the
canon law in that period. The election of
Archbishop Parker, which had been referred to as
the Nag's Head consecration, had been narrated at
various lengths by Burnet and Strype, but with greater
accuracy by Burhall, a reprint front the original
document having been recently published, to which
he would call the attention of the Court. In that
case it appeared that two witnesses were heard upon
oath in support of the articles exhibited by the opposers,
and it was worthy of observation, as meeting one of
the arguments brought forward by the other side,
that the confirmation of Archbishop Parker did not
take place within the twenty days mentioned in the
statute of Henry VIII.
Mr. Justice ERLE—Was the date of that confir-
mation subsequent to the passing of the 28th Henry
VIII.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said that the date of the
conga d'elire, according to Strype, was the 18th July,
Ist of Elizabeth, the election took place on the
Ist of August, and on the 7th of December
the confirmation was fixed to be holden on
the 9th of :December, and upon that day the
confirmation took place. The consecration, according
to the Archbishop's own letter, took place on the 17th
of December, several months after the date of the
conge d'elire, but in that case no letters missive were
sent to the Dean and Chapter.
Dr. ADDAMS, quoting from Burnet's History,
stated that a letter missive had been sent. It ap•
peered also that there were several other discrepancies
in the account of the transaction between the two
historians, Strype and Burnett. The Learned
Doctor then proceeded to argue that the
Dean and Chapter were not bound to elect
the person named in the letters missive,
under the penalty of prtereunire, the only penalty
attaching to the act of the Dean and Chapter in tie
election of any other person being that of the
appointment by the Crown, by letters patent,
of such person as they might name. If
the Dean and Chapter had elected some
other person instead of Dr. Hampden to the see of
Hereford, could it be maintained that they would be
liable to prtemunire ? Would not the person so elected
have been Bishop to all intents and purposes ? The
Learned Doctor then proceeded to read at consider-
able length several authorities, for the purpose of
showing that the authority of the Sovereign in the
election of bishop or archbishop was not so extensive
as was contended for by the counsel against making the
rule absolute. The Learned Counsel had not con-
cluded the citing of these authorities when the Court
rose, at half. past four o'clock, and the further argu
merits were ordered to be resumed to-morrow morn-
ing at ten o'clock.

ENGINEERS AND ARCHITECTS.—Very considerable
dissatisfaction has been expressed by some of our corre-
spondents on the ground that, while the architects who
were engaged as survey ing officers in inquiries last year,
under the " Preliminary Act," had in no case been paid
more than five guineas a day, the civil engineers, who
were employed on the same errand, claimed fled received
double that amount. It seems scarcely likely that the
Government drew such a distinction : the difference
must have originated in the modesty of the architects
themselves, who have not been on quite so many Govern-
ment inquiries as the engineers, and were, probably, and
very properly, anxious not to overstep the mark.—
Builder.
CAUTION TO LADIEB.—One of the most daring
attempts at robbery within our recollection occured on
Tuesday afternoon, about half-past three o'clock, in
Jewry- street, Ahlgate. A lady, passing through the
above street, with her daughter, twelve years of age, was
suddenly grasped at the throat by a ruffian, who forced
his other hand into the pocket of her gown, from which
he drew a canvas bag containing about eighteen or nine-
teen shillings. The lady called as loud as possible for
help and held the man with the utmost determinuiion,
but unfortunately there was no one passing at the mo-
ment to render any assistance. Binding ho was not
likely to obtain his liberty, he dropped the bag of
money and renewed his attack in a fierce endeavour to
escape, which at length he succeeded in effecting, not
however until he had severely kicked and bruised the
courageous victim of his savage attack,yho was carried
is a fainting state into the nearest shop. It is supposed
the man was one of a gang of four men and a woman,
who were seen a few yards in advance just previously,
in close conversation. The police were on the spot in
the course of two minutes after the occurrence, to whom
the appearance of all the parties was minutely described.
Colonel Itodenbach, who took a leading part in the
revclution, died suddenly of apoplexy a few days
ago, as he was entera,,, a cafe at Brussels.
I =Tits: LORD 1318110 P or CAPE TOWN.—The Persia
Indianian, having on board the Bishop of Care Town,
areived safely at Madeira on the tiOth ult., after a fine
l
p ssage of ten days from Portsmouth. His Lordship,
-i New Year's Day, held a confirmation in the English
Church, in the presence of her Majesty Queen Adelaide,
when several young persons were admitted to that holy
rite of the Church, and in the evening the Bishop and
Mrs. Gray had the honour to dine with her Majesty.
His Lordship, with the clergymen and catechists who
accompany him to his diocese, were most kindly enter-
tained and lodged, during their stay at Madeira, in the
residences of the principal merchants. On the 4th inst.
they sailed from the island, and will touch at St. Helena,
where it is expected the Bishop will again be called on to
exercise his sacred functions in administering the rite of
confirmation to the young members of the Church re-
sident on that island.

in the following words —(See l'ailiamentary Papers, No. 711, of
1847 To this end I carefully studied the whole of the voluminous
