MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of March ii.)
SUGAR.—To-dity there was no improvement in the
demand for Raw Sugar for any purpose, and for most
kinds prices were further depressed. West India was
operated in with caution by grocers and refiners, only
350 hhds and troy being sold, and at easier rates, making
the fall for the week 6d to 15 per cwt. At public sale
75 hogsheads 5 tiercrs 19 barrels West India were
offered, and sold at prices in favour of the buyers;
Demerara, good -grainy 47s 6d to 48s 6d, middling 401 to
44s 6d, inferior 37s 6(1 to 395; Berbice, good 47s 6d,
middling 40s 6d to 44s 6d, ordinary 38s to 395, low soft
brown 33s 6d, good 353 to 35. 6d per cwt. The total
sales for the week: are 1,340 hhds and trcs.
REPINED.—Today there was a good demand for re-
fined sugar from the home trade, and prices are firmer;
brown grocery lumps selling at 53s to 53s 3d, and to
pass the standard 545. Bonded Crushed is dull of sale
at from 27t 6d to 29s per cwt.
MAURITIUS —This afternoon there was little desire
evinced to operate in Mauritius Sugar, and 2,108 bags,
at auction, sold upon easier terms—very fine yellow went
at 445, fine 39s lid, good 38s 6d to 89s 6d, middling 36s
6d to 37s 6d, washed 35s to 36s 6d, syrupy 34s to 41a,
and Brown ditto 31s per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon five parcels of Bengal
Sugar, amounting to 10,940 bags, were offered at public
sale. The chief part sold, but at 6d under those previ-
ously current for white, soft yellow, and for the lower
kinds of grainy, but the better torts realised the full
worth.
SricEs.—To-day at public sale 80 bags of White
Peppur wore talron in at 41a to Gil for middling to good;
28 barrels Jamaica% Ginger at 60s to 78s for middling
and good middling.

BRISTOL SUCAR-MARKET, MARCH 17.—The mar•
ket he: been very dull this week; and, in the absence of
supylies, the trraisactions have been unimportant. The
refined market is; quiet.—Bristol Mercury.
DARING CONIMUCT.—We understand that a band of
about fbrty persons, representing themselves to be
colliers out of work, have, within the last few days, been
calling on parties. in the vicinity of Glasgow, and de-
manding money.. In cases of non-compliance they
threaten to help themselves. About the o'clock on
Tuesday afternoon, a party called at a house iu the
neighbourhood o'S Rochazie, which at the time con-
tained only three ladies, and made their usual demand.
The ladies, almost frightened out of their wits, sent
out a sum of money to the band, with which they made
off without using any violence.—North British Mail.
COLLlERS.—lnformatien reached
the authorities yesterday (Wednesday), that a demon-
stration of cioltiers was expected to take place during
the forenoon, and accordingly the usual preparations
were made to repress the threatened breach of the peace.
About mid-day the chief superintendent set out for
palmarnock-bridge, near which the anticipated gather-
ing of colliers was expected to be seen ; but on reaching
the spot nothing was visible but the brown fields, and
people going about their ordinary avocations. Nothing
which could by any possibility be magnified into a
meeting was apparent, and the baffled chieftain was
obliged to retrace his steps. We believe that about an
hour previous to his appearance atDalmarneck as many
as 100 colliers had met to have a quiet talk about the
position of their own affairs, the issue of the conversa-
tion being, we understand, a resolution on the partof the
majority of them to resume work befor the end of the
w. ek.—North. British Mail.
DIVISION or BUCRINGIIANISHIIE.—The Gazette
5-,last night contains an order in Council directing that
the county of Buckingham shall be divided, under the
New County Coroner's Act, into four districts, viz., the
Aylesbury district, Beaconsfield district, Newport Fag-
null district, and Winslow district.
ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY'S MEETING NOR
1849.—There appears to be a fair prospect that this
most distinguished gathering will be held at Bury St.
Edmund's. Other places have vied for the honour, but
we have reason to expect that, considering both its
means of accommodation and its agricultural import-
ance, the committee will give this town the preference.—
Bury and Suffolk Herald.

CAI•EL (one of the committee), said at the last
meeting, in November, the committee entertained a con-
fident opinion that they would be enabled to come to
some settlement of their affairs; but from a variety of
eiteueastancea they had been unable to do so. He then
read the following report:—
"The Committee of the Spanish Bondholders' Associ-
ation, in making a report to their constituents, bog to
renal to their recollection the last meeting held in
November, 1847. It was then stated to the bondholders
that, if the present committee could not bring about a
settlement with the Spanish Government in three
months, they would again place the matter under the
control of the bondholders.
" It was deemed advisable that a deputation of the
committee should have an interview with Lord Palmer-
ston, at which his Lordship's language was so encourag-
ing, that the committee resolved at once to send an agent
to Madrid, and as the bondholders had not supplied the
committee with funds to defray the expenses of an
agent, at the request of the committee Mr. Heming, the
chairman, undertook the mission; however, his depar-
ture was delayed until after the outbreak in
France, and circumstances having now induced
him not only to give up the mission, but also to resign
the chairmanship, it leaves to the remaining active
members of the committee no alternative but to place
their resignation also in the hands of the bondholders."
The committee originally consisted of nine members,
two of whom, Sir Thomas Lethbridge and Mr. Sergeant
Wilkins, had never attended its meetings. The Hon.
Baronet had sent in his resignation on account of old
age and growing infirmities. Four of the committee,
two of whom were members of the Stock Exchange, had
unfortunately become bankrupt. Mr. Hewing, Hho to
his knowledge brought 140,0001. from India, had been
.ined, and had in consequence given up his mission.
There wore now virtually but four members of the
committee. They bad no funds. They bad called upon
the public to aid them with subscriptions; one gentleman,
Mr. Talker, had given 261., but the entire amount col-
lected only reached 39/ ss. Their expenses and engage-
ments amounted to 2291. 55.; but the deficit had been
subscribed by members of the committee. About 15/.
remained unprovided for, but they did not look upon that
as a matter of much consequence, as no doubt the neces-
sary funds would be subscribed. The committee must
leave the matter in the hands of the bondholders. It
was essential that they should have en agent at Madrid,
but they had no funds out of which they could discharge
the cost.
• Mr. CROOK regretted that they were about to lose the
services of the amiable gentlemen who had composed
the committee. H. was sure they must have become
disgusted at the conduct of Spain towards the bond-
holders.—(Hear.) He had heard it stated that arrange-
ments were in progress by which sufficient money would
be raised, from the capitalization of the interest on the
debt, to discharge all expenses.
Mr. CAPEL said, if Mr. Heming had gone to Madrid
no doubt arrangements would have been made which
would have rendered a subscription unnecessary. The
outbreak in France had also, in a great measure, pre-
vented this.
Mr. CROOK had little faith in any promise the Spanish
Government might make. If Spain could raise 2,000,0001.
and 30,000 men, as she had recently done, she was surely
in a condition to pay her just debts.—(Hear.) Let them
bear in mind that their money ought to have been paid
before any other claim, as it had placed the Queen on
the throne, saved the property of the aristocracy and the
entire nation from falling into the hands of Don Carlos.
—( Hear.) In return, instead of receiving gratitude, they
had been mocked and tantalised year after year. At one
time it was stated that 400,0001. would be placed to the
credit of the bondholders; but they were deceived, as it
was pilfered from them by the Queen, the ex-Queen, and
the Ministers. Spain could well pay her debts, as her
income bad been doubled during the last few years.—
(Hear.) But full retribution was at hand—let them be
warned in time—the French Republic would soon knock
at the door, and compel them to pay ; and if they re-
sisted, the army and navy of the Republic would
make soup meagre of the entire nation.—(Laughter.)
No doubt the committee was surprised at the paucity of
the attendance, but when they bore in mind that many
of the bondholders and their families had been ruined,
and were existing in penury, surprise would give place
to compassion.-Hear, hear.) He hoped the
Government of this country would be petitioned to
decline to receive an Ambassador from Spain. Why, the
English aristocracy would not receive at their tables a
per son who had been unable to pay his turf debts, and
would they receive the representative of a country which
had openly robbed them?—(Hear, hear.) Spain was
devoid of feeling, and they might depend upon it that
they would never obtain their rights until they agitated
to obtain them.—(Hear, hear.) Spain prided herself
upon the " Generals" of her army—why, they were
merely captains of banditti.
The CHAIRXAN said, perhaps there could be no differ-
ence of opinion with respect to the conduct of Spain ;
but it would be advisable, he thought, to abstain from
such observations, and proceed to the business for which
the meeting had been called.
Mr. CROOK simply hoped the committee would not
resign.
Mr. CAPEL said Lord George Bentinck had led them
to believe that the Government intended to do that
which the bondholders asked. Lord Palmerston,
when a deputation waited upon him, said be
had high hopes. They asked him if he would
consent to settle the matter by convention; but
he said the Government were not prepared to do so—
saying that the bonds arose out of commercial spoliation,
and that the Government could not interfere. They
then asked him if he would instruct Mr. Bulwer to act
for them. He replied that he would instruct him to do
what be could; be advised them to send an agent of their
own. A memorial wasprepared, and the Noble Lord sent it
to Mr. Bulwer. The Government, though disposed to
do all it could, would not make it a Government ques-
tion. If they could send a person to Madrid, and enable
him to keep a good table—for good cookery was
a great thing in Spain—their cause would be much
strengthened. A person of good address, and with a
good table, could do them essential service.
Mr. MaltoN said that he had always been anxious to
have the question settled as soon as possible, knowing
as he did what changes were constantly occurring in
the government of that country. They could move
when they pleased at a railroad space, but when justice
was to be done they moved only at a snail's pace. The
Government of Spain mightrestassured that if they did not
attend to the claims of the bondholders, they would fol-
low the fate of Louis Philippe. He had had the pleasure
of denouncing the conduct of that monarch at the last
meeting of the shareholders, but now that he was in his
present unfortunate position he would say, nothing
more upon the subject. He thought it of the utmost
importance that the bondholders should assert their
rights to redress from the Spanish Government.
Mr. CAPEL said that the remaining members of the
committee were determined to resign their position,
feeling confident that they were utterly powerless in
promoting the interests of the bondholders.
Mr. HENDERSON, jun., entered into a statement of the
line of conduct pursued by his lather, as the representa-
tive of the bondholders at Madrid, showing that he had
through five different Ministries unceasingly enforced
their claims. He had received a few days since a letter
from his father, informing him that be was still sanguine
as to the success of the negotiations, and that he had
waited upon Narvaez, and informed him that it would be
absolutely impossible for him to raise the loan of
2,000,0001., which had been agreed to by the Cortes, un-
less some arrangements were made respecting the settle-
ment of the existing debts.
The CHAIRMAN begged to correct a remark which
had been made by his friend Mr. Capel, with respect to
the late Chairman (Mr. Fleming). He had said that
" lie was a ruined man;" such was not, however, he was
happy to state, the case. He bad lost a large sum of
tuonc.y. but was still well connected, and would no
doubt ultimately recover his former position, and be able
honourably to meet all his engagements.
Mr. CAPEL took occasion to bear witness to the
valuable services rendered to the association by the late
Chairman.
Mr. Blocarra moved, and Mr. CAPEL seconded, a vote
of thanks to the late Chairwsan for his valuable services,
which was unanimously agreed to.
Mr. MocArrA regretted that the committee had come
to the conclusion at this critical period of resigning their
functions, and he earnestly trusted that they would con-
tinue in their position; and, if anything should occur
requiring pecuniary assistance, they would, at all events,
convene another public meeting, before which the whole
matter could be laid.
Mr. CAPEL said that if the meeting wished the com-
mittee to remain in office for a short time longer, it must
be entirely on the understanding that a fresh committee
should be constructed at the expiration of three months.
Mr. MocATTA then moved, and Mr. MAlioN seconded,
a resolution requesting Mr. C. Johnson, Mr. James
Capel, Mr. C. W. Stokes, and Mr. Dumurgue, to con-
tinue their valuable services on the committee for a fur-
ther period of three months.
The resolution was carried unanimously.
Mr. BAXTER passed a high eulcgium upon the cha-
racter and services rendered to the bondholders by the
exertions of Mr. Henderson.
The thanks of the meeting were then unanimously
voted to the Chairman, and the meeting broke up.

THE MURDER OF A GAMEKEEPER
.BY A GANG Or
POACHERS, IN HANTS.—HYTHE, HANTS, MARCY 16.
At the Drummond Arms, yesterday, Captain Robins
and Mr. Holloway, magistrates presiding, the final ex-
amination of the poachers, charged with causing the
death of Charles Payne, an under-gamekeeper on the
estate of Mr. A. R. Drummond, at Cadlands, was pro-
ceeded with. The investigation having lasted a con-
siderable time, several witnesses having been examined
at some length, the bench determined on committing
Stephen Morris and William Smith for trial at the next
assizes at Winchester, for the wilful murder of Charles
Payne, the deceased gamekeeper.

T„. Curs Elm Jury.—Some excitement was
caused at Jersey-, on Wednesday, by the arrival of a
Chinese junk. supposed to be the one which caused such
stir in New York a short time since, having been found
out of her latitude, in a strong north-west gale, laying
too for assistance on that dangerous coast between the
Rocks Dovers and the Minguais, to the south west of
this island, on the French coast, by a cutter, bound to
France, which nobly 'bout ship, and piloted her into the
Jersey Roads. As soon as it became known there was
a Chinese junk in the roeds, all the sight-goers seemed
on the qui vim ; thousanda_thronged the piers, and hun-
dreds started by cutters, which commenced running
round her, at 2s. per head, to catch a sight of the celes-
tial barque, the Chinese portion of the crew politely
bowing as the different crews rounded.. She seemed a
vessel of very large dimensions, peculiar construction,
and very showy, having three masts, and her stern. very
high out of the water, on which is painted the figure of
an enormous bird, in very showy colours. Galleries run
round one half of her, into which are hoisted her small,
boats, also of very slight and novel construction. In
her
bows she had two very large eyes. She was visited
immediately on her arrival by the Custom-house officers,
and is reported to have on board some costly presents
for her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Victoria. Ap-
plication has been made to the Government of the island
to allow the Cuckoo Government steamer to tow her to
England.
We hear that the Earl of Cardigan was again un-
successful is a second attempt this week to become a
member of the United Service Club. Sir Robert Wilson,
we also learn, has been similarly unsuccessful.
A new journal has been started at Neufchatel, en-
titled, La Patriote Acuchatelois. It is the organ of the
new republic.
