the shares so to he taken by them, and interest thereon.
Mr. W. H. Craufurd seconded the resolutions, which,
after some conversation, were agreed to.
THE HEROIC SAILOR JEROME.—The packet-ship
New World, Captain Knight, arrived at New York on
the 22d ult. It will be recollected that this packet-ship
was the means of saving several of the passengers of
the Ocean Monarch. The heroic sailor, Jerome, who
is attached to the New World, was to receive the fro
dom of the city of New York, in a gold box, for his
bravery and humanity on the occasion of the burning
of the Ocean Monarch. Jerome has worked along
shore, and sailed out of New York for the last sever
years. He married within the last two years, and has
now one child. He is poor, and has nothing to de-
pend upon but his hard-earned wages as foremost hand
when on the deep.
ROYAL MARINES.—PLYMOUTH, OCT. 9.—On Sa-
turday last 100 men belonging to the Woolwich division
Royal Marines arrived here from Woolwich by the
Great Western and South Devon Railways. These

e fidrst ares
be put in commission. They were under the temporal-.
ships which
command of Captain G. Walkup Congdon and Lieu,
tenant G. Leslie, who have returned to Woolwich.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—About noon on Thursday last,
the general terminus at Perth was the scene of a very
painful accident, which terminated fatally a few houi
thereafter. It appears that a train recently arrived had
just got quit of its passengers, and was taking a posi-
tion on a centre line of rails, to make way for another
that was just coming up, when one of the porters
named Dewar, a smart young man about 26 years of
age, thoughtlessly leaped upon the footboard, in opposi-
tion to a standing order, and, catching the handle of a
door, was swinging himself onward, when his bead
corning in contact with one of the pillars that support
the roof he was struck to the ground, and falling across
the rails the wheels of the two following carriages went
over his legs, crushing the bones in a most shocking
manner. After enduring great agony he expired the
same afternoon at five o'clock.—Perth Advertiser.
MAN v. HORSE.—After the last race of the Union
Hunt Club meeting a very novel jumping match, for 501.
a side, over a hurdle about four feet high, came off be-
tween Mr. C. 11. Reynard and Mr. William Watt's
horse, The Veterinary Surgeon of Settrington, by Irish
Birdeatcher, dam by Fungus, five years old. 'The con-
ditions of the match were that it should be a clear leap,
and in the event of both of tl-,em clearing it, the hurdles
were then to be raised higher, until one or the other
was beaten. Mr. B. B. Thompson was chosen umpire.
The toss for choice of jumping first was won by Mr.
Reynard, when he ordered the horse to leap first. The
horse then came at the hurdle, ridden by William Wil-
son, but did not succeed in clearing it, slightly tipping
the hurdle as he went over. It was now Mr. Reynard's
turn to jump, when he cleared the hurdle at the first
attempt, and consequently won the match. Wilson then
tried the horse at a much greater height, when he
proved himself a first-rate leaper. Mr. Moore, the owner
of Wolf Dog, also mounted the horse, and took him
across the hurdles in a very gallant manner. The horse
stands about 15 hands high.—Yorkshire Gazette.
TURKISH GRAIN.—The vessel lona, arrived in the
docks from Constantinople, has brought 3,000 quarters
of barley, comprising the entire cargo. This is, we
believe, the largest importation of grain which has taken
place this season from any port in Europe.
SHOCKING ACCIDENT AND LOSS OF LIFE FROM GUN-
POWDER.—Yesterday (Monday) a dreadful accident oc-
curred at the village of Brynsiencyn, near Carnarvon.
Elizabeth Jones, a charwoman, brought from Carnarvon
six pounds of gunpowder. As the evening was very wet,
the powder got damp, and when Mrs. Jones reached
home she placed it before the fire to dry. There were
four of her daughters sitting by the fireside at the time,
and the powder having taken fire, a fearful explosion
took place, the roof of the house was blown off, and the
inmates dreadfully scorched. Mr. John Daniel and
others entered the house immediately after the accident,
and found the poor sufferers with their clothes on fire,
and their blackened skin and flesh hanging in rags from
their bones. The youngest daughter died soon after-
wards, and little hopes are entertained by the medical
men of the recovery of the others. Their names are
Perry Roberts, aged 15; Elizabeth Roberts, 20; Mar.
garet Jones, 32; and the mother, Elizabeth Jones, 55.
—Liverpool Mercury.
COURT OF ALDERMEN.-Yesterday a Court was
held for the dispatch of business. The Sheriffs re-
ported to the Court the state of the several City prisons.
The statements made by the medical men as to the
health of the prisoners were, considering the period of
the year and the general condition of the metropolis,
extremely favourable. Slight fever and diarrhoea exist
in some of them, but no dangerous maladies have made
their appearance. A memorial was presented from
several merchants in the City, complaining of the
great inconvenience to which merchants and other
gentlemen who had business to transact in :the
justice-room of the Mansion House were sub-
jected, in consequence of being obliged to come in
contact with very objectionable persons, in proceeding
to the place at which affidavits were received. The
Lord Mayor said he knew that the merchants had long
had cause to complain of the nuisance, and he had en-
deavoured to give some temporary accommodation, but
it would be for the Court to apply a permanent and
effectual remedy. Several members of the Court bore
testimony to the statement that the nuisance was quite
intolerable, and that the skill of Mr. Bunting, the City
architect, would be admirably exercised in removing
what had been matter of complaint for a number of
)ears. The memorial was referred by unanimous con-
sent to a special committee.—Adjourned.
OPEN COURTS.-The new penal Act (which came
into operation on the ad instant) provides that the room
or place in which a justice or justices shall sit to hear
and try cases shall be deemed an open and public court,
to which the public generally may have access, so far as
the same can conveniently contain them. This is
another step in the right direction, though the rooms
are generally, if not purposely, made too small. But this
does not apply to cases under investigation where the
accused has to be sent for trial in a superior court.
CHEAP RAILWAY TRAINS.—By order of the Com-
missioners of Railways, upwards of 170 cheap or third-
class trains now run daily on the railways of the United
Kingdom extending over more than 4,000 miles, the
object of the Legislature being to secure to the poorer
classes the means of travelling by railway at moderate
fares, and in carriages protected from the weather. By
the Act it is incumbent upon every railway company to
run one such train every day, at one penny per mile,
and a speed of at least twelve miles per hour. Children
under three years are to be taken without charge, and
under twelve years at half the charge for an adult.
Any neglect of these regulations subjects the company
to penalties, and deprives them of the benefit of the re-
mission of the passenger-tax which is allowed on all
cheap trains.

The crowd on the heath this afternoon, notwithstand-
ing the weather from an early hour in the morning until
after the second race was very unfavourable, vastly ex.
ceeded the anticipations even of those who looked upon
numbers as the test of a "grand day." Amongst them
we must not class the " legitimists" of the turf, to whom
the arrival of about 2,500 people, by the special trains
from London, Norwich, Yarmouth, and Cambridge, was
a sight as novel as it was unwelcome. It is clear that
Newmarket will no longer be confined to the aristocratic
and sporting classes ; the Eastern Counties directors,
who have recently leased the branch from Chesterford to
Newmarket, have hit upon the right way of making it a
valuable " feeder," not only by improving the general
traffic but by making the cost of the trip to the foun-
tain head of the turf, nearly one-third less than is
charged for a return ticket on the Derby day. The
specimen we have seen on this occasion, distasteful as it
may be in some quarters, will, we have no doubt, lead to
the adoption of cheap trains on all great race days at
Newmarket. The weather, we have already stated, was
unpropitious for the greater part of the day; it cleared
up, however, about an hour before the Cesarewitch, and
was all that could be desired until near the close of the
racing. We have no time to dwell on the apart; it will
be seen that in one of the leading events—the Clearwell
—the Duke of Richmond's mare lost her chance by an
accidental collision with Oquetos, and that the crack race
was carried off by an animal, who, until he came into
his present hands, was looked upon as nothing more
than a mile horse. Snrplice, on whom such heavy
sums had been invested, never showed in front. The
race was run at a very severe pace from end to end; so
trying indeed was it, that out of thirty-two horses only
four were left with the slightest chance at the new
ground. The horses passed the winning chair at exactly
39 minutes before four, and the result was known in
London in six minutes, the distance from the chair to
the Electric Telegraph Station, about a mile and a half,
being done by horse express.

the ruck remaint d in company until inside the cords;
Czarina here joined Highland Fling, and at the same
moment Oquetos running against the latter, forced her
upon Czarina; the former was knocked out of her place
and lost all chance; but recovered herself, and joining
the favourite half way up, made a respectable finish,
Lord Chesterfield's mare winning only by half a length.

she came through the ditch forty or fifty yards in ad-
vance. Nothing approached her until she reached the

SECONDARIES'.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondaries JAMES.)
SHANNON V. KEEN.
The plaintiff in this action is a sheriffs' officer, and
defendant is an attorney. The action was brought to
recover the sum of 61. Bs., for fees, &e.
Defendant denied this liability, and also a set off
of 2001:
Mr. PARRY, for the plaintiff, said the set off was a
Mere joke, and it was quite clear on the authority of a
number of men, that although an attorney was not gene-
rallY personally responsible yet he might render himself
so by his own acts, and in this case he had done so, as
instead of leaving the; writs with the sheriff to be en-
forced as he thought proper, had deputed the plaintiff as
his special bailiff by delivering the writs to him and
giving him instructions. He should prove these facts,
Which be considered entitled the plaintiff to a verdict.
Several witnesses were examined to prove the work
done, the fees due, and payments made by the plaintiff.
Mr. PARRY then quoted the case of Walbanke and
Masterrnan, 3C B Reports 94. The defendant's name,
however, was misprinted, and is not in the Index.
The SECONDARY said it was
,a great pity more atten-
tion was not paid to him.
The LEARNED COUNSEL contended that in that, and
many other cases, his case was made out.
The SECONDARI thought that the mere delivery of a
writ to an officer was not binding on the attorne y.
lere it was shown that the writ had found its
way into
the hands of the officer, and it was a question
for the
jury to say whether there had been any specific di-
rections:
Mr. PARNELL contended that none had been proved,
but. mainly relied on the fact that no warrant had been
put in to show that the plaintiff was an officer of the
sheriff, and the writs alone were not evidence.
that
The SECON
migDARY was of the same opinion, observing
ht be officer put into the hands of a party not an
make' and ho w,,uld be a trespasser, and would not
a charge for an illegal act.--Nonsuited ac-
cordingly.

i THE ARMY.—The 6th Regiment of Dragoon
, Guards (Carabiniers), at present stationed at Dundalk,
, are under orders to move to Dublin; the 2d Royal North

Light Dragoons, now stationed at Newbridge, move to
Athlone, sending detachments as well to outposts; the
7th Ilussars, now in Dublin, will relieve the lastmen-

stationed at Lahore. The 23d Foot, lately arrived from
Halifax, will be stationed for some time at Winchester.
Lieutenant-Colonel Erskine, of the 2d battalion 45th
Foot, died lately at Fort Hare, Cape of Good Hope.
ROBBERY IN A CHURCHYARD.—On Sunday even-
ing, about ten o'clock, a young man, named George
Pearson, was passing through All Saints' Churchyard,
Maidstone, when he was suddenly seized by a man who
had been concealed behind a tombstone, and who pinioned
his arms while a female accomplice rifled his pockets,
with the contents of which, amounting to about five
shillings, they made off. On attempting to pursue her,
Pearson was struck a blow in the eye by the man, who
followed the woman. Information was given to the po-
lice, and the pair were apprehended at Hawkes's lodg-
ing-house, High-street, and identified by Pearson. They
will be taken before the magistrates this day. Their
names are Ann Smith and James Powell, and by their
own account they come from Tonbridge Wells.—Maid-
stone Journal.

THE LATE TREASON TRIALS.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—I perceive that the jury have found O'Brien
guilty, but have recommended him to mercy.
This is, in my opinion, as it ought to be; but how
different from what passed some time since at the
Old Bailey. No sounds of mercy fell from the lips
of the foreman of the jury who settled the fate of
Cuffey and Co. One would have thought that the
hurt, if not the head, would have prompted to the
good deed.
Moreover, the jury had broad ground whereon
to have built substantial reason for a merciful re-
commendation. These Chartists were simply fools ;
and their wildest doings nothing more than the pur-
blind blundering of besotted imbecility. The Crown
knew this—hence the employment of the
Powell and Co. to train and ripen the affair for
the law. These Chartists, simpletons like, became
entangled in the meshes of the snare woven by
the Crown. They were entrapped, and " Found
Guilty." '

ARLBRO'-STREET-(THIS DAY).
There was not a single charge of any public interest
before the Court this morning. The whole time of the
Magistrate was occupied in disposing of upwards of
forty begging and drunken charges. Amongst the latter
aPPenred a Mr. John Hyde, who described. himself as
an editor. He was found in such a complete state of
intoxication that he had not quite recovered when he
made his appearance before the magistrate. As it was
the first time, he was discharged.

On Wednesday last the first portion of the Vernon
Collection was removed from the residence of its muni-
ficent donor to the apartments in the basement story of
the National Gallery, where it is to be temporarily
lodged until other and final arrangements can be made.
Mr. Ward's picture of the " Council of Horses," pur-
chased by Mr. Vernon at the late exhibition of the
Royal Academy, has been added by him to his public
gift. The National Gallery will be re-opened to the
public a fortnight hence, when the two pictures by
Taddeo Gaddi, lately given to the National Gallery by
Mr. Coningham, will be seen in addition to the modern
collection.—Athena um.

Seeing these things, it does occur to me, that
the jury did but half their duty in the verdict which
they gave. They lost two opportunities of acting
nobly and generously. The one, in neglecting to

the merciful recommendation when it might with so
much grace have been tendered.

THE WEST YORKSHIRE ELECTION.—The Quid-
maws of this extensive electoral district are already
brimful of speculation as to who may be the probable
successor of Lord Morpeth (now Earl of Carlisle) in the
representation of the riding. Various names have
already been canvassed, with more or less probability
of their being started, but nothing can be known with
anything like certainty until the leaders of the political
parties in the riding have had opportunities of confer-
ring on the subject. As Lord Wilton now sits for the
county of Wicklow, it is not expected that his Lordship
will become again a candidate; but it is thought that Mr.
Edmund Denison, the Chairman of the Great Northern
Railway Company, would have a good chance, as, at all
events, he would not have Lord Morpeth nor Mr. Cobden
for competitors.

We have much pleasure in announcing that an
amateur dramatic performance will take place this
evening at the Strand Theatre, the proceeds of which
are to be devoted to the laudable object of enlarging the
library of the Whittington Club. The programme of
the entertainments states that the performances will
consist of Douglas Jerrold's popular play of the Rent
Day, and Planelies farce of The Loan of a Lover, as well
as a miscellaneous concert. The respective parts in the
two dramas are to be sustained by members of this insti-
tution, who have undertaken to get up the entertain-
ments at their own expense. We ►rest that their exer-
tions will be crowned with such success as to enable
them to carry out the object they have in view.
CHARING..CROSS HOSPlTAL.—Yesterday afternoon
a meeting of Governors and Committee of Management
of the above hospital was held in the Board-room of the
institution; Taylor, Esq., in the chair. During the
quarter just ended, there had been admitted 338 in, and
3,390 out-patients; of accident cases there had been 547,
of which 77 had been received into the wards, in all de-
partments being a great increase over the preceding
quarter. The report proceeded to state, that during the
past year 12,092 indigent sick poor had been relieved,
of whom 1,155 had been in, and 10,937 out-patients;
the whole cost of these had been only 2,2921. 4s. 11d.;
of the number of out-patients, no fewer than 10,509
were freely admitted without any recommendation.
Two large wards are unoccupied, the present resources
of the hospital being much too limited for the full exer-
cise of its useful operations, and the increasing applica-
tions for relief. The total number of patients since 1818
had been about 140,000 persons.
Yesterday the Lord Mayor entertained a large
party at dinner, amongst whom were the members of
the Centenary Club, of which his lordship is a member;
covers were laid for forty, and of those who partook of
the worthy chief magistrate's hospitality were the Pre-
sident of the College of Physicians (Dr. Paris), Sir Wil.

M. DE LAMARTINE.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,--Allow me to express the great pleasure it has
afforded me on observing the energetic manner with
which you have advocated and vindicated the great
L amartine.
It must afford consolation to every philanthropic
mind to observe (notwithstanding the partial out-
breaks) that France, yes, military France, is making
rapid strides towards teaching the world the great
value of the sublime precepts of peace and goodwill
amongst men, and earnestly do I hope that no un-
towardly military spirit may rise to mar the godlike
prospect of the reign of peace on earth and the fulfil-
ment of that which is its natural effect, figuratively
described as beating swords into ploughshares and
spears into pruning hooks, enabling every man to sit
under his own vine and fig-tree, and none to make him
afraid.

QUEEN'S THEATRE, HULL.—Considerable interest
was excited hero on Thursday, the justice-room being
crowded on the occasion of an application for the re-
newal of license for the acting of stage plays in the
Queen's Theatre. Eleven magistrates were in attend-
ance, who, after hearing the paltry opposition against
renewing the license, determined to grant the license for
nine months, excepting November, December, and
January. Upon what principle they made the exception
it is difficult to say. It is, however, known those months
form the winter season of the patent theatre, so that we
must still have a monopoly, and the playgoers have no
choice of theatres. The Queen's Theatre cost the pro-
prietors a very heavy sum, and to oblige them to close
the place for three months must be attended with great
loss. The lessee will doubtless suffer severely by the
house being closed three of the best months in the year.
There must be something wrong in the law which gives
power to magistrates whereby property can be raised in
value or depreciated.
ROYAL ARTILLERY.—WOOLWICH, OCT. 10.—The
baggage of the two companies of Royal Artillery under
orders for the West Indies was put on board the A tholl
troop-ship yesterday at Woolwich Dockyard, and the
companies will embark to-morrow. Captain the Hon.
R. Ilandcock's company proceeds to Barbadoes, under
the command of Second Captain Goodenough, with
LieutenantJ. F. Pennycuick, to relieve Captain Savage's
company, Ist battalion, at that station since November,
1843. Major Burnaby's company, 6th battalion, pro •
ceeds to Jamaica under the command of Second Captain
M. C. Dixon, with Lieutenant B. Lawson and Lieutenant
J. F. Soady, to relieve Captain Fisher's company, at that
station since November, 1843. Detachments are also
under orders to proceed to Barbadoes to join Captain
Taylor's 9th battalion, and the following officers proceed
with the detachments:—Second Captain Rogers, with
Lieutenant R. P. C. Jones, and Lieutenant C. Oldershaw.
Lieutenant Vandeleur and a detachment also proceed at
the same time to join Captain Morris's company 2d
battalion at Jamaica. The total number for Barbadoes,
in addition to the officers named, is eight non-commis-
sioned officers, and 130 men, with six women. The total
in for Jamaica, in addition to the officers named,
is eight non-commissioned officers and 116 men, with
six women. Captain Goodenough, being the senior
officer, will have the bharge of the companies during the
voyage.

Judging from accounts, Lamartine is, in my
opinion, one of the greatest and most extraordinary
statesmen France has ever produced (notwithstanding
the envious sneers made by parties, either ignorant or
corrupt). France, and the cause of humanity, are
deeply indebted to him; and I have no doubt that
France and posterity will duly appreciate his extra-
ordinary merits, although he has had, and doubtless
will have, many severe trials and troubles to endure,
so long as he persists in advocating honesty and truth,
for it is said that men like darkness rather than light,
because their deeds are evil. So men accustomed to
hypocrisy and corruption will hate Lamartine, so long
as he adheres to such a line of conduct; and if piety
accompany his other great attainments, he will un-
doubtedly gain that which the world cannot give nor
can it take it away—viz., peace of mind—which will
be of far greater importance at the final period of life,
than all the glory of a Bonaparte or a Wellington, or
that which the most splendid earthly attainments can
bestow,

If the French nation be guided by the influence
and example of their great Laniartine, my idea is
that France will, at no great distance of time, be the
great beacon of the world, and thus enable the nations
of the earth to progress onwards toward the full
enjoyment of liberty, equality, and fraternity.
Lamartine's conduct and example fully coincides
with the following sentiments :
"It is nobler to induce by argument than to compel
by physical energy. Rational conviction is permanently
in its effects 1 those of physical compulsion continue
no longer than the agency is exerted, and the tecoil,
where there is any degree of elasticity extant, is
always in proportion to the pressure employed. Let
us, therefore, in all our political expressions and
transactions, carefully guard against even the ap-
pearance of violence or intemperance of manners.
We shall find it much easier and more convenient to
prevent the storm than to appease its rage. Much
more agreeable and beneficial to conciliate and employ
the kind affections than to encounter and rule the
angry passions of men. Violence of any description,
and in any case, should be the last resource. In
politics especially it is liable to be abused to the worst
of vices and purposes. Its sanguinary introduction
into political systems, and internal animosities is,
perhaps, the most prolific source of all temporal evils
and miseries in the world. 0 thou sword ! when
wilt thou cease to devour ? 0: thou thundering
artillery, when wilt thou cease to roar ? Alike insa-
tiable and irresistible, ye are the curse and terror of
the human race; sin is your parent; perdition is
your award."—Yours, respectfully,
London, Oct. 9, 1848. PHILANTHROPY.

THE ORDER OF THE GARTER.-It is reported that
the vacant blue ribbon will be conferred either on the
Marquis of Westminster or the Earl of Clarendon. This
is the third vacancy which has occurred among the
knights of this most noble order since the accession of
the present Government. During the administration
of Sir Robert Peel there occurred no less than nine
vacancies.

A POSER FOR THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPP.--A
Northumbrian farmer, who " feeds his flocks" on the
Cheviots, and never " reads the papers," had an agent of
the Electric Telegraph Company thrown in his way, and,
with the hospitality of his class, gave him a bed for the
night. While they were having a crack together over a
glass, the electricity-man gave his host a lecture, an hour
long, in explanation of the telegraph—its nature and
uses; concluding his discourse much to his own satisfac-
tion, and, as he believed, the edification of the farmer.
But no sooner had he done, than the wondering Tripto-
lemus, before closing his gaping, wondering mouth,
started the question—" How many head of sheep will it
carry to market?" The discomfited guest rose to his
legs, with a look of blank despair, took up his bedroom
candlestick (if there be such things on the Cheviots)---
and vanished.

SALE OF SIR CHARLES KNIGHTLEY'S BULLS.—At
the sale of bulls, which took place at Fawsley, on Fri-
day, the following prices were realized :—Lot 1 was
bought by Lord Burlington for 41 guineas; lot 2, Mr.
Malins, 35 guineas; lot 3, Duke of Rutland, 80 gui-
neas; lot 4, Mr. Bartholomew, 64 guineas; lot 5, Lord
Ducie, 140 guineas; lot 6, Captain Dilke, 38 guineas;
lot 7, Mr. Daniel, 22 guineas ; lot 8, Mr. York, 70
guineas; lot 9, Lord Spencer, 115 guineas; lot 10, C(,l.
Pennant, 36 guineas ; lot 11, Mr. Doig, 50 guineas ;
lot 12, Mr. Bennett, 42 guineas; averaging 641. Os. 9d.

A WHALE IN THE FIRTH OF CLYDE.—On Thurs-
day last a party of ladies and gentlemen left Port Ban-
natyne, is Bute, on a pleasure sail across the bay, to
enjoy a pic-nic on one of the hills above Loch Striven.
They had not proceeded far when they were joined by
a whale, which followed them very closely in the wake
r of the yacht, much to the alarm of the ladies. On their
return from the loch the fish renewed its attentions to
the party, but finally it left them near the mouth of tte
Kyles, having " blown off steam " vigorously
the greater part of the cruise. A gentleman, on board,
who has been in the Polar Seas, estimated- the I length of
the whale at from 25 to 30 feet. It - "—

PACKAGES FOR HER MAJESTY.—Her Majesty's
packet Garland, Widegeon commander, arrived at Dover
on Sunday from Ostend, having on board two packages
addressed to her most gracious Majesty the Queen.
They were immediately forwarded to town by the autho-
rities at the port of arrival for delivery to their destination.
The ship Severn, C. Duncan commander, left the
river on the 9th of September, for Ceylon, with pas-
sengers and goods. A fine organ, built by Brycceon,
made part of the lading, the promised gift to the con-
gregation of Trinity Church, Colombo, of the late
Right Hon. J.A. Stewart Mackenzie, formerly Governor
of the island.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS COURT.--This Court will sit
on Wednesday next, the 18th inst., before the Chief
Commissioner, for bail cases and motions ; and on the
31st the hearing of cases will be resumed, when the four
Courts are appointed to be held.

TEA.—None has been offered at public sale ; there is,
however, a large amount on offer by private tresAy. For
Black rather lower rates taken, and little desire is shown
to do business by private treaty. The value of
ordinary and good ordinary Congou is lid to Sid
per lb. There is much dulness in the market for
Green, and rather lower rates are taken for inferior;
good and fine, however, realise full market terms.
Scented and Pekoe Teas have been dealt in with caution,
and must be called rather cheaper. The deliveries of
is. Tea are still greater than up to this time last year,
whilst the stock on land is smaller, and dealers are but
moderately supplied. Public sales of Tea are declared
ty.,; to take place on Friday; the quantity at present adver-
t tised is 6,600 pkgs.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Costa Rica Coffee met with
greater attention, and 1,639 bags at auction sold at firm
rates; fine and fine fine ordinary 33s to 38s. 24 pkgs
- Jamaica taken in—fine at 90s, good 70s to 85s, and
)34 middling 60s. 620 bags Plantation Ceylon sold at late
. rates—fine at 60s to 64s 6d, good middling and good 52s
'l4 to 58s, low middling and middling 44a to 50s, fine fine
.ordinary 35s to 41s, good and fine ordinary 28s to
I 29s 6d.
RICE.—To-day there was no public sale of East India
Rice, and privately few purchases were made by ex-
porters or home trade buyers. Cleaned Rice is cheaper
- town dressed Carolina selling at 25a to 28s per cvs ,
SPIRITS.—For Jamaica Rum rather lower rates are
again accepted, still exporters and home-trade buyers
evince little desire to operate in the lower sorts ; fine is,
[cc however, wanted, and realises full market rates. The
,
value of mid and good, 28 to 34 per cent over proof,
is 3s 3d to 3s 10d, low 3s to 3s 2d, and fine, 34 to 38
over, 4s to 4s 6d. Leeward Island met with little atten-
tion, and a decline was observable, smell sales having
been made at is 6d to is 6id for proof. East India is
not much in demand, and the rates accepted are Is 5d to
Is Sid; several parcels are also near at hand. For Deme-
rara the market looks dull, and the rates taken for strong
- sorts are 2s 2d to 2s 9d. Brandy is not higher, still the mar-
- it firm, and there is a good demand, whilst the stock is
small: for Cognac, best brands, of the vintage of 1846, the
tee, rates paid are 4s 10d to ss, 1847 ditto 3s 10d to 4s,
inferior sorts 2s 6d to 3s; Bordeaux, 2s to 2s Id
for export sot t, and 2s 6d to 3s 6d fbr fit for duty. There
is only a limited stock here. For British made Spirit
there is a firm market; the priee of Gin for exportation
iL has been fixed at 3s 6d per gallon proof.
SALTPETRE.—To-day only a limited demand existed
' for rough privately, and 946 bags at auction went upon
_l4 rather lower terms, and a part only sold ; middling
grey 8 to Ei per cent refraction at 24s fsd to 255, 3i
good 25s 6d.
ce SPICES.—To-day, at public sale, 136 bags White Pep-
per sold at 4d to 4kd for middling, which are rather
lower rates; and 44 packages Jamaica Ginger at 53s to
100 s per cwt.
34 Saco is more in demand, and prices are rather higher
for the better sorts: there is, however, a more plentiful
supply. To-day at public sale 200 boxes Pearl have
been sold at 21s to 21s 6d per cwt.
INDIGO. The Quarterly Sale of East India com-
menced
this day. During the progress of the sale 165
chests were withdrawn. 962 chests have passed
the sale. There was a fair attendance of foreign
and home buyers ; the biddings, however, have
not been animated, although proprietors have gene-
rally given strong support to their marks. Prices have
been exceedingly irregular—the ordinary and low
1/4 qualities of Bengal, and the few lots of fine shipping
sorts, selling at the last sale's rates; whilst the middling
- descriptions, chiefly fit for the German markets, brought
es. an advance of 3d to 4d per lb. Kurpahs have been in
a
B brisk demand, at about 4d advance; but Madras were
- neglected at the prices of the last sale. Proprietors
2% have bought in 315 chests.
FRIIIT.—There is still only a limited demand for
t Raisins, and a desire is shown to sell new Valentia at
i 38s to 40s. New Currants move off slowly at 425, and
old at 345. The supply of Fruit is likely to be extensive
;s this year.
COCHINEAL.—To-day more desire was shown to do
business in Cochineal and 220 bags at auction all sold at
fully former rates, silvers 3s 5d to 4s 6d per lb.
TALLOW.—The market for Russian has been in a dull
state since our last report; importers are willing sellers,
and submitted to further reduced rates. The value of
fine new P. Y. C. is 45s 9d to 46s per cwt, at which
a desire is shown to realise. For forward de-
livery only a small amount of business has
. been done up to the close of the year at 45s 6d to
45s 9d. Home melted is less wanted, and can be ob-
tained at 45s 6d to 46s nett cash, and which are lower
rates. Other kinds of Tallow are cheaper, and met
with little attention. At public sale 141 casks of
New South Wales were only in part sold. at 40s to
44s 9d, and very low 37s 9d; 52 casks East India
46s 6d to 50s 3d; and 26 pipes South American 43s
- to 44s 6d per cwt. The value of Rough Fat is 2s 7d
per stone. Imports of Tallow have been upon a large
scale since this day week, and the stock far exceeds that
of this time last year, but deliveries are greater, whilst
prices rule above that time. For public sale 500 casks
are declared.
OILS.—For public competition on Friday 15 tuns of
Sperm, 90 of Southern, 22 tuns Cocoa Nut, and 132
casks of Palm are declared. imports are still of little
moment, whereas deliveries continue of a satisfactory
nature, and prices rule much under those of this
time last year. Southern is wanted, and as the
supply is small former rates are well supported. At
Pubic sale 17 tuns were sold. Seal is in excellent
demand, and on the part of holders there is firmness ;
pale is worth 251 lOs to 271, tinged and straw
251 lOs to 26/, and other sorts 241 to 25/ per
ton. Sperm is in excellent demand, and prices
tend upwards, good and fine quality realising 701 to 731
per tun, and there is a decreased supply, whereas the
consumption is getting larger. Linseed Oil finds a more
ready sale for home trade purposes, whilst a. brisker ex-
port demand exists, still prices cannot be quoted higher,
and they rule at 22s to 22s 3d per cwt on the spot.
For forward delivery sales to a fair extent are re-
ported at 22s 6d. There is still a plentiful supply,
but the consumption continues of a satisfactory
nature, and prices are lower than fur a long period.
Rapeseed Oil is held with firmness, pale at 37s and
brown 365, at which a good business has been done,
and the supply does not get larger. Palm is much
