By the steam-ship Cambria we have advices from
New York of the 30th ult., and accounts of corre-
sponding dates from other parts of America. On
receipt of the English letters by the Great Western,
flour rose immediately half a dollar per barrel at
New York ; but the Cambria left so shortly after
the arrival of the Great Western that time had
hardly been allowed to ascertain the full effects of the
exciting accounts from hence. During the week end-
ing 30th September about ton thousand barrels had
been brought up for shipment, besides which nearly
doubled that quantity had changed hands on speculation ;
tie price in both cases having been five dollars per
barrel for good brands of Genesse, and corresponding
terms for other sorts. Subsequently, holders advanced
the price of Western canal to 5 d. 50 c., at which a
sale or two were made on the day of the departure of
the packet. The exports of flour had amounted to
81,744 barrels from the Ist to the 29th of September !
whilst, within the same period, 144,444 bushels of
wheat, 74,929 bushels of Indian corn, and 50,374 bushels
of rye had been shipped. Stocks of grain and flour on
the spot are represented as small ; and the arrivals from
the interior had not kept pace with the demand. The
accounts from the other American markets are of very
little interest, as the news from England had not yet
been received at Baltimore, Philadelphia, &c. ; and
quotations from those places are consequently much
lower than those from New York.
An impression seemed to be general on the other side
of the Atlantic that the wants of Great Britain would
not, in reality, prove so great as represented; merchants
were, therefore, not disposed to consign on their own
account, and it is clear that comparatively little will
reach us from that quarter except what may be brought
by the British speculator.
All over the continent of Europe the value of wheat
continues steadily to advance, but there does
not a
to have been much business done at any of the
Baltic
ports at the enhanced rates demanded.
From Dantzic we learn, under date of 10th of October,
that about 9,000 quarters of wheat had changed hands
during the week, but cur letters do not inform us of the
particulars of these transactions. Fine high-mixed qua-
lities were then quoted 58s. to 60.3., high mixed, 555. to
575., good to fine-mixed, 535. to 555., ordinary sorts, 51s.
to 525. per qr, free on board. Freight to London and

the east coast of Great Britain was ss. 9d. to 6.5. 3d., and

At the principal ports in the Mediterranean atten-
tion has of late been more directed to I►:dian corn
than to wheat, and large purchases of the former ar-
ticle have been made at Trieste, Leghorn, &c., at from
345. to 365. per quarter for good Galatz corn.—Mark-
lane Express.

EUSTON SQUARE STATION.—The area originally, says
Mr. Stephenson, was 6 acres, an addition of six acres
has bean purchased, making, in future, altogether 12
acres. The length of this station is 480 feet. When
the extension is completed it will be 757 feet. The
area will be doubled by the improvements—increased
from 6 acres to 12 acres. The proportion of passel:4,a rs,
those going to the West-end compared with those going
from Euston-square to the City, is as 9 to 6. The
length of the platform is beta een 420 and 430 f, of ; it
is proposed to be made 700 feet long. The saving in
cartage, which would be ( ff-cted by transferring the
London and Birmingham goods station to Euston-square
varies from Is. to ls. 6d. per ton. The excellence of
locality of station proved by superior facility and
economy of moving passengers to any part of Lon-
don. A cab can be hired for Is. 4d. to take passen-
gers to almost any part of the metropolis. Mr.
Locke decidedly approves of the situation of the
Euston-square station, and does not consider that
any public advantage would be experienced by an ex-
tension into the City. The company have power to
charge Is. extra on every passenger conveyed from
Camden-town station, but have never exercised this pri-
vilege. The average number of passengers who come
and go from the Euston station is estimated at 4,000
daily. The largest number of passengers who arrived
in one day at the Easton station is 3,421. The largest
number of passengers who have left the departure plat-
form in cue day is 2,513. The largest number arriving
by cne train 773 ; the greatest number departed 596.
There are 42 trains daily, 21 in, and 21 out. When the
improvements and extension now in progress are com-
pleted, new and different arrangements must still be
made to afford (says Mr. Glyn, the chairman) accommo-
dation for the continually increasing traffic. The York-
shire and Lancashire traffic will in future be worked at
different sides of the station. The mails for these dis-
tricts are repeatedly delayed from the confusion occa-
sioned by the immense trafie. The platform for the
Midland and Eastern lines will be perfectly distinct from
the others. The new departure platform is calculated
to accommodate 60 carriages under cover. There are
occasionally trains of 28 carriages arriving. The aggre-
gate shed-room amounts to 8,705 square yards, and is
insufficient. The average number of vehicles at Euston
station each night is about 320, of which 260 belong to
the London and Birmingham Company.
BRICKLAYERS' ARMS STATION ON THE SOUTE.
EASTERN.—There are 26 ;:acres of clear space at this
station for cattle and goods, and every thing requisite
for carrying on a very large railway traffic is collected.
It is most complete in all things necessary for a goods
station. The station, with the approaches, cost upwards
of 240,0001. It is used almost entirely for goods station
for South-Eastern Railway. Is quite insufficient during
the season of the hop traffic, hut, according to Mr.
Baxeneal a the inconvenience arising from this cause is
limited to a month or six weeks in every year. Most of
the west end passengers now stop at this station instead
of proceeding to London-bridge.
CUTTINGS.—In considering the question, Mr. Rennie!,
engineer, is of opinion that they are far preferable to
viaducts or railroads on the level of the adjoining street.
The annoyances to the inhabitants are less by a tatting
than either of the other modes of construction. In a

Witness requested Mr. Slack to give his card of address,
but he said he had not got one, and Mr. Davis then
offered a card with his (Mr. Davis's) name upon it, but

on having Mr. Slack's name and address. Mr. Slack
again whipped on the pony, and Mr. Davis struck him
repeatedly with his umbrella, and he (witness) was
obliged to defend himself as well as he could until a
policeman came up, and the defendants were given into
custody. One of the gentlemen at the back of the chaise
also assaulted witness, when his hat fell off. He made
off, leaving his hat behind him.
Mr. Levy, the lessee of the toll, who attended for
the complainant, said he had been a tall-collector for
23 years, and was a well-conducted man.
Mr. Slack, in his defence, said he admitted having
horsewhipped the complainant, who seized the reins of
the pony, and backed them near the kerb-stone, by which
he felt his life and the lives of his friends to have been
in danger. They had paid the toll, and Mr. Davis had
the ticket, and was not allowed time to products it.
The complainant became very violent, and struck Mr.
Davis.

BRISTOL CONSISTORY COURT.

JONES V. JONES.

This long-talked of suit for divorce, on the ground of
adultery, occupied the Court during the whole of Thurs-
day and Friday.
The promoter, Mr. Edward Jones, an extensive to-
bacco manufacturer, of Bristol, prayed a decree of divorce
a mensa et thorn from Elizabeth Janes, his wife, by
reason of her having committed adultery. The wife, by
her responsive allegations, charged adultery and cruelty
on the part of the husband.
For the promoter a great number of witnesses had
been examined, with a view to prove that Mrs. Jones
had committed adultery with a gentleman named Ward,
another named Lansdowne, and with several others
whose names to the husband were unknown. The par-
ties had been married since 1829, and had had eight
children, of whom four survive. Their private dwelling-
house was in College-green, and Mr. Jones was neces-
sarily from home a great deal in the conduct of his busi-
ness; and it was charged that Mrs. Jones took advan-
tage of his absence to dishonour him. The witnesses
were mostly persons who had lived in the service of the
parties, and they deposed to having seen Mrs. Jones
and Mr. Ward lying on the sofa together upon
different occasions, to Mrs. Jones having been seen
on his bed, to their repeatedly kissing each other,
and to the lady having more than once said that she
loved Mr. Ward's little finger better than her husband's
whole person, that he ought to have ben her husband,
and that she wished her husband might be brought home
dead, as Ward would then marry her. In regard to Mr.
Lansdowne, it was sworn that he and Mrs. Jones had
been in the parlour together with the door locked, and
that she had been seen in an indecent position before
him. On the more general allegations of adultery the
evidence was, that various gentlemen were in the habit
of calling in Mr. Jones's absence ; that they were asked
into the parlour with his wife, when the door was
often locked, the servants being charged by Mrs.
Jones not to come near it while any one was there ;
that, upon their leaving, Mrs. Jones's dress was ob-
served to be disordered ; that she was in the habit cf
sending round letters to gentlemen in her husbands ab-
sence, and that the gentlemen then called ; and that' upon
one cccasion she was followed to a house of bad character
with a gentleman. One witness, a girl named Wade, in a
supplementary examination filed after the suit had pro-
ceeded some way, deposed to having witnessed a distinct
act of adultery with Mr. Ward; but this statement was
-at variance with her former one, in which, although
stating circumstances from which adultery might be in-
ferred, she declared that she had never seen any crimi-
nality between the parties.
Mr. Stone, for the wife, insisted that the witnesses
against her were unworthy of credit, And that, suppos-
ing their statements to be true, it was impossible to come
to a belief that the husband was not cognizant of her pro-
ceedings.
For the defence, witnesses were also examined to speak
to an act of adultery by the husband with' a girl named
Smith, and to indelicate conduct to others.

The evidence in support of the allegation of cruelty
was very contradictory, some witnesses declaring Mr.
Jones to have been kind and indulgent to a fault, while
others stated that they had seen him beat his wife se-
verely with his fists, and even with a poker, and that on
an average (according to one witness) he used to fight
with her twice a week. _ _

Mr. James Cardino, North-place, Ball's-pond, and
several other respectable witnesses, corroborated the
testimony of complainant.
Mr. Davis said that he had possession of the ticket,
which he put into his hat with some others, and having
on his great-coat, and heing muffled up in a shawl, he
was some time before he could produce the ticket. The
conduct of complainant was violent, insolent, and over-
bearing. He seized and struck at him, when he certainly
did strike him with his umbrella in his own defence.
Mr. ComnE inquired whether they had any witnesses?
Mr. Slack replied that they had the two gentlemen
who were with them, but Mr. Holstock, one of them,
had important business that day at Putney, and could
not attend.
Complainant said this was the gentleman that struck
him and left his hat behind.
Mr. William Holland, of Devonshire-street, Queen-
square, who said he was a merchant's clerk, deposed
that he was sitting at the back of the chaise with Mr.
Holstoek. They lost their way, and were considering
the best direction to take when complainant asked for
the toll. Mr. Slack said "It is all right," and the
orm insisted on seeing the ticket. He se zed the
reins and forced them back, to the danger of their lives,
when Mr. Slack whipped the pony.
Mr. COMBE said it was a bad case, and he doubted
whether the extreme penalty of 51. would be adequate
punishment to inflict on the def. ndants. The complain-
ant had held the situation of toll-collector 23 years, and
showed that he was respectable. He applied to them for
their ticket, which they did not show him, hut drove on,
and then Mr. Slack began to lash him with his whip.
If he sent the case to the sessions to be tried, they might
be punished with tine and imprisonment. Two more
gross assaults could not be committed. Their own wit-
ness confirmed the evidence against them. It re-
mained with Mr. Levy to carry the case to the sessions

or not.
Mr. Levy—l will leave it to your Worship.
Mr. COMBE—I say again, I doubt whether 51. fur each
assault is sufficient punishment.
Mr. Mallett—The Turnpike Act goes farther, it em-
powers 101. penalty.
Mr. COMBE—Then I fine them 10/. each.
The money was instantly paid, and defendants left the
court.
Mr. CORM then said the collector had behaved very
well, and he ordered him 50s. out of each fine.
The clerk handed him over five sovereigns.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.

Charles Churrell, an exceedingly smart-looking boy,
aged fifteen, was brought before Alderman Wood,
charged with having picked a woman's pocket of four-
pence, in a very adroit manner.
The prosecutrix was followed by the prisoner, who
was in the company of two other boys, by whom his
movements were covered. He slipped one hand under
her pocket, and held it up, so that with the other hand
he emptied it with ease. He then slipped the contents
into a side pocket in his coat, and walked off, evidently
to look after more victims, Upon being taken into cus-
tody, upon the evidence of a boy, about his own age,
who had been sharply observing him, he was searched,
and in the pocket pointed out by the witness, were found
penny pieces and halfpence, amounting to fourpence. In
his trowsers' pocket were found four shillings, of which
he had, as it appeared, a short time before, plundered a
person, who did not attend to prosecute.
The prisoner, who put on a crying face, out of which
he was not able to wring a tear, said the woman was mis-
taken. The whole of the money was his own, shillings
as well as half-pence, and he hoped the Alderman would
not deprive him of it.
Al& rman WOOD asked the woman whether she re-
membered exactly the kind of money she had had in her
pocket ? The prosecutor—l do,
my Lord ; there were
three penny pieces and two half-pence.
Alderman WOOD—You are correct. There is the
money that was found in his coat pocket (handing the
money to her).
The prisoner looked quite confused at the unanswer-
able detection.
Alderman WOOD—Well, sir, what have you to say
now ? how did her money get into your pocket ? The
prisoner—l never put it there ; there were some boys
about, I don't know what they might have done.
Several of the police force stated that the prisoner was
constantly about the streets, in the company of young
thieves.
Alderman WOOD—You shall go for three months to
the House of Correction for this, and the four shillings
shall go towards your support.

Mr. Lawson, a japanner, &c., of No. 10, Watt's Build-
ings, Kingsland•road, charged one of his wcrkmen,
named Williams, with the following gross assault :--
Mr. Lawson stated, that at about 5 o'clock on Monday
afternoon the prisoner, who was somewhat the worse
for liquor, opened the door of the counting-house in
which he was engaged in writing, and demanded of him
some money. Witness perceiving the state he was in,
refused, and advised the prisoner to go home. The
latter, however, continued to importune him, and
witness at length removed the prisoner's hand from
the handle of the door, for the purpose of closing it.
The prisoner immediately pounced upon him, and they
fell to the ground together. Witness called loudly for
assistance, and two others of his workpeople came, but
before their arrival his shirt and clothing were literally
torn to ribbons. The prisoner was now secured, and
upon the arrival of the police he was given into their
custody. It took four policemen an hour to get him to
the station•house.
Mr. BINGHAM fined him 10s. or one month's im-
prisonment.
An individual of respectable exterior, and who said
he was a wine merchant, was fined 30s. for assaulting
Mr. Inspector Pascoe at the station-house. The de-
fendant, who was extremely tipsy, it appeared offered
himself as bail for a person who had committed an assault.
The defendant, however, being in such a state his
bail was refused, and he struck the inspector. The lat-
ter offered to look over the assault if he would go
quietly home; he, however, became so violent that he
was obliged to detain him.
The defendant acknowledged the justness of the Ma-
gistrate's decision, and having paid the fine he quickly
Tithdrew.

During the last six or eight months the tradesmen in
the metropolis have suffered to a very considerable ex-
tent by the passing of counterfeit coin of various deno-
minations, and so well have the pieces been executed
that the greatest difficulty has been experienced in de-
tecting the imposition. It will be remembered that, in
the month of June last an extensive seizure of spurious
money was made by Inspector Penny and Sergeant
Brennan of the G division, at a house in Duck-lane,
Westminster, where the said coin had evidently been
manufactured, and it was ascertained beyond all doubt,
that a man, named Anderson, had been the occupant of
the room in which the discovery of his nefarious
prac-
tices was made—moulds, &c., were
taken
from the pre-
mises, and every effort was male to secure the delin-
quent, who, upon obtaining information of the " scent"
which the police had gained, hastily decamped, and long
has eluded pursuit.
Yesterday, Inspector Penny and Sergeant Brennan
brought up William Anderson, the man alluded to, and
a female, who gave her name, Eliza IV. ight, lx.th of
them charged with being concerned in *Ailing.
Inspector Penny said—On Saturday. night last, in,
consequence of information which I received, I and Ser-
geant Brennan went to a house in Egd ware-road, where
we found-Anderson and another man. I told Anderson
ho must consider himself in custody for coining half-
crowns, shillings, and sixpences, in Westminster. I and
Brennan took him out by force, and, putting him in a
cab, conveyed him to the Paddington station-house. He
had on him genuine coin, to the amount of is. Bd., in
silver and copper, lied a latch-key. He was locked up,
and I and Brennan went to 60, Devonshire-street, Lisson-
grove, when I undid the street door with the latch-key
in question. I spoke to the landlady, to whom I de-
scribed the man, and she told me that a person answering
his description lodged with a female, whom she under-
stood to be his wife, in a back room on the second floor.
I went up, and finding the door locked forced it open,
and in a box found a galvanic battery, by means of
which they gave the silvery appearance to coin. On a
table was a jar, containing spirits, and in a dish was a
quantity of plaster of paris. I and the sergeant also found
a quantity of copper wire, and a variety of other implee
ments used in the process of coining. While the search
was going on the female prisoner suddenly entered the
room, when Brennan immediately laid held of her. Sl.e
resisted much, and endeavoured to put her hand into
her bosom, with the view, as I imagined, of drawing
something out ; I then put my hand in the upper part
of her dress, before she had time to effect her object,
and drew therefrom two papers, containing 23 counter-
feit fourpenny-pieces. She was violent, and cried out
"murder" several times. She vvas ultimately conveyed
to the station, and locked up. Witness added that in a
closet in the back yard, to which the female prisoner
was in the habit of going upon almost every occaeion
previous to her leaving the house, he found concealed
from view a bag, containing two double and two single
moulds, and two spurious half-crowns.
Numerous packages, in which were all the materials
required for carrying on the process
.of coining, were pro-
duced by Mr. Penny and other officers, and the pri
soners were remanded till Friday.
John Roberts, proprietor of the Sols' Arms, Hamp-
stead-row, appeared to answer to a summons issued
against him, for refusing to receive five soldiers of the
3d Infantry, that were billeted on him by Sergeant
Richard Daniel, 12 S.
Mr. Roberts complained of there being no names
given in with the billet. He urged that he was respoa.

SOUTHWARK.
John Piyot, a beershop-keeper, was charged with
committing an assault on Thomas Edwards, a harp
player.

The complainant, who exhibited a black eye, stated
that he was a musician, and was engaged to play at a
ball given on the preceding night at the " General Aber-
cromby," in Suffolk-street. In the course of the night
it was proposed that a collection should be made in the
room for the musician, and the defendant voluntarily
undertook the task of collecting the money. When this
11 was finished the defendant handed over some money
short of the subscription, and this being observed by
some of the company, it was commented on in pretty
sharp terms ; when the defendant, irritated that his
character for honesty should be impeached, immediately
proceeded to wreak his vengeance on the unfortunate
harp player, whom he attacked and beat in a very violent
manner. A policeman was called, and the assailant was
given into custody.
The defendant was fined 205., and in default of pay-
ment was committed for 14 days.
Ahoy Ann Davis was charged with wilfully breaking
a valuable pier-glass in the Equestrian Coffee-house, next
the Surrey Theatre.
It appeared that the defendant, on the preceding
night, went into the above house, and called for some
liquor. After taking it she went over to the glass, and
with her list broke it in pieces. She wai then given inta
custody. The most remarkable part of the affair was,
that she did not cut and lacerate her hand. The value
of the glass was at least 21. 10s.
Mr. SECKER adjudged the defendant to pay that
amount, and in default of payment committal her to
*son. •
WANDSWORTH.
George Roberts, a fashionably dressed young man, who
had refused to state his address or occupation, was
brought before Mr. Clive for final examination, upon a
charge of attempting to pick pockets on the platform of
the South-Western Railway terminus, at Nine Elms.
It appeared at the first examination, from the state-
ments of Henry Jordan and Samuel Norwood, parties
in the service of the above-mentioned railway company,
that on Saturday afternoon they observed the prisoner,
who was previously known to them, get into a second-
class carriage of the one o'clock Gosport down train,
and return by another Gosport train which reaches Nine
Elms about half-past four. Immediately upon alight-
ing from the carriage, he commenced sounding the
pockets of several gentlemen. He afterwards went up
to a lady, and placed his hand under her shawl. The
prisoner was then secured, but the lady had not lost any-
thing. Upon the prisoner being taken into custody, five
sovereigns were found upon

It was proved by police-constable Bent, 95 V, that the
prisoner frequented houses of bad repute.

The prisoner, who was defended by Mr. Roberts,
was remanded that inquiries might be made respecting
him.

To-day, upon his being placed in the dock, several
constables of the M, B, L, and V divisions, spoke as to
the prisoner being a well-known associate of thieves,
although they could not prove that he had been convicted.
Mr. Roberts endeavoured to show that the prisoner
was a very respectable young man, and obtained an ex-
cellent living as an ornamental painter. He called, as a
witness, a man named Murphy. This witness gave the
prisoner the best of characters.

Mr. CLIVE said he should commit the prisoner for the
extreme tern of imprisonment, which was three months,
with hard labour in the. House of Correction.
The money found upon the prisoner was given up to
the prisoner's wife.

THAMES.
Mr. Charles Gray, Albert-street, Mill-wall, Poplar,
engineer, was charged with assaulting Gt orge and Sarah
Ward, who keep a glass and china warehouse, Fore-
street, Limehouse.

It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner and
two other men were annoying the proprietors of seve-
ral earthenware. warehouses in Fore-street, where a
very busy and general market is held daily, by ask-
ing the price of certain utensils which they described.
After leaving the shop of Mr. Tabraham, where they
made a disturbance, and struck him because he
expostulated with them on their behaviour, they pro-
ceeded to the warehouse of Mr. Ward, and used very

stiuslYe language to his wife and insulted her. Mr.
1V rd told thew to go on, and rtfuied to serve them, on
which the pri,.cyner cllall•.,r.gtd Lica oat to f4,,ht, Thc
,hopkeepfr declino,s: - et, and

the prisoner reiterated his denrind lu the same terms as
he had done before. After making a considerable dis-
turbance, and interrupting the complainant's business,
which to him was a matter of importance on a Saturday
night, his companions took him away. The prisoner
returned a few minutes afterwards, and told the com-
plainant he would serve him out. He then made an at-
tempt to kick Mr. Ward, and struck him on the fore
head. He followed up the blow by striking the com-
plainant with great severity on the chest and face. A
policeman named Blyth, No. 303 K, was called, who
took the prisoner into custody. All the witnesses de-
scribed the prisoner's behaviour as most indecent and
disorderly. The policeman had much trouble with him,
and took kim off Mr. Ward, on being called to his as-
sistance.

At the request of the prosecutor, who said he wished
the case to be disposed of summarily, and that it would
be a great loss to him if it was sent to the sessions,
Mr. BRODERYP said he would adjudicate upon the
case, but justice required him to pass the most severe

SUGAR.—To-day the market presented .a firm appearance
for all kinds of Raw Sugar availab!e for home consumption,
the trade being inclined to get further supplied, in conse-

quence of a report gaining ground that sugai• is to 'beallowed

to be used without restriction in the distilleries and brew-
eries. There was a good desire eviueed to operate in all
kinds of West India Muscovado for refining and grocery
purposes, but merchants insisting on an advance on the rates
of Friday of 6d, tended to operate against business.
REFINED.— To-day refined goods were largely dealt in by
the home trade, and further advanced rates were paid—
indeed, the supply at market is nearly exhausted. ,Brown
grocery lumps fetched 63s 6d to 61s, and standard lumps 65s
to 65s 6d. Bonded Crushed Sugar can be easily obtained at
33s for first quality, but to-day very little business was done.
MAURITIUS. —All descriptions have been in increased re-
quest, and although the market has been much better sup-
plied, still holders in some cases have succeeded in obtaining
stiffer rates for the parcels disposed of privately. 6,402 bags
at public sale were all sold.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon there were six public sales
of Bengal Sugar, consisting of 5,175 bags; the trade were
desirous to operate, and nearly the whole sold at full rates,
indeed the better kinds with grain in some cases went 6d per
cwt. dearer.

FOREIGN.—The home demand has fallen off for all kinds
of Havannah Sugar, and a decline in the value of 6d to is
per cwt. has taken place, the market having been more freely
supplied. Privately there has been little passing, and at
auction apart only of 1,610 chests and 501ihds of yellow found
buyers. Brazil is offered upon rather lower terms. but little
business has been done privately in any kind, and at public
sale 91 chests of Bahia only partly found buyers at easier
rates. Porte Rico is less wanted, and a fall in the value of
6d per cwt has occurred for good and fine yellow, and is per
cwt for all inferior and brown kinds, but 380 hhds and 150
barrels at auction were all sold. Foreign Sugar for exporta-
tion has been sparingly dealt it, but holders are not inclined
to submit to any further decline in prices.
COFFEE.—This afternoon Singapore JaVa met with little
attention, and 7,766 bags at auction, nearly all taken in at
moderate rates—ordinary brownish at 30s, low ordinary
brown 28s 6cl; the part sold went at 31s to 32s for good
ordinary yellowish, 28s to 31s for sea damaged first
class, 26s to 29s 6d for second and third class,
being rather under former rates. Of other kinds
none were offered at public sale. Ceylon met with
attention privately, and the parcels sold were at stiffer rates,
and fetched 38s 6d to 39s for good ordinary pale native.
Several public sales are declared.
TEA.—To-day the market had a quiet appearance. 844
packages Assam were offered at public sale, and the whole
sold in consequence of moderate rates being taken; Bohea
only fetching sid to 100, Congou 84c1 to Is 21d, Souchong
Is 4d to is 11d. Pekoe is lOid to 2s 9d. Of 1,648 pckages
from China, only 583 sold, and consisted nearly all of catty
boxes of Congou with all faults, and fetched is to is 9id
sound Congou in half chests was taken in at 9d. Privately
there is little business transacted in Black or Green, moderate
as prices are. The quantity upon which duty was paid at
this port amounted to 561,8t01bs duringeen in excellent request,
the past week.
SPlCES.—Jamaica Ginger has
but prices have been preventedf been well supplied; the r b
om further advancing in
consequence of the market Laving
parcels offered at auction were all sold, and amounted to 538
packages. Of Calicut 500 cases at auction were with9lrawn,
but 378 cases 488 bags and pockets sold at stiff rates. Cassia'
Lignea has been in good demand privately, and previous im-
proved rates are well sustained, the supply at market being
small. Pimento has been purchased with avidity, and previous
prove • d rates are fully supported. For Nutmegs a, good
Itnde-
mand has existed, and rather higher rates have been paid
privately for all kinds. Mace is wanted, but higher prices
being insisted upon, only small parcels have been sold.
Although Black Pepper can be obtained upon rather
lower terms, still exporters and the home trade have
operated with caution privately in all kinds. White
Pepper is little wanted, and can be obtained upon easier
rates. For Pod Pepper the demand has been brisker, and
prices are firmer, the supply being less than it was. Cinna-
mon has not-been so much in demand, but former rates are
insisted ,n.
SPIRITS.—
In Jamaica Rum there has been a good business
transacted by exporters and the home trade, prices are look-
ing and the quantity sold since this day week has been
at) upp- Uns common and middling, 30 to 36 per cent. over
nroof, at 3s 3d to 3s 6d, good 3s 8d to 3s 10d ; fine, 34 to 36
over, 4s 9d to 4s 6d, and very superior 4s 8d to 4s 10t1 per aallon.
Leeward Island has met with less attention, but holders are
firm. In Calcutta a good business has been transacted, and
holders m au ife• t firmness. In Demerara a fair business has been
transacted. Brandy has been in brisk request. Geneva has
been in excellent request for exportation, and prices further
advanced, common selling at 2a 8d to 2s 9d; fine has been in
request for home consumption at 3s to 3s 3d. For Corn
Spirits the demand is as brisk as ever, and prices are very
firm; the distillers have mo:e orders on hand than they
will be able to execute for some time. In English Gin a
large business has been transacted.
FRUIT.—New Valencia Raisins have been much sought
after at 45s to 465, but none to be had out of first hand.
Turkey Figs have been in excellent request. Of Currants
there are none in the market at preseut. In Muscatels a
good deal has been done. Red Smyrna Raisins are wanted,
the stock being nearly exhausted.
hors.—Although there are sellers of all descriptions upon
further reduced terms, still only a limited business has been
transacted, the large quantities that are: yet brought to
market e :using the trade to operate with caution. The
duty for the kingdom- is estimated at 220,0001.
COCHINEAL—To-day the demand was good, and at public
sale 108 bags of Honduras were all sold at rather higher
rates, and went at 4s. 4d. to 5s 3d for very ord to good silvers.
INDIGO.—The October public sale, which commenced'on
the 6th instant, has terminated. The quantity decliired for
sale was 21,393 chests, of which 795 lots were not printed,
leaving 20,598 chests for sale. We do not remember so small
an attendance of foreign and homebuyers, and so uneven and
flat a sale; this is not, however, to be wondered at, when we
look at the enormous quantity declared, which threw a sort
of panic amongst the general class of buyers, and nullified
the effect which the late advices from Calcutta, representing
the crop as not likely to exceed 90,000 maunds, would have
had under ordinary circumstances.
011.9.---The market has a firm appearance for Seal Oil.
there having been a large business transacted, and the rates
paid have been fully equal to those on this day week. Cod
has been purchased with more freedom, and holders have
succeeded in obtaining better prices, although arrivals are
on the increase, and 271 have been given for several par-
cels. Southern has been in excellent request, chiefly
by the home trade, and the quantities disposed of privately
were at prices rather above those previously current; the
quantity brought forward has been again to a moderate ex-
tent only. Sperm has met with increased attention, and the
parcels sold by private contract were at an advance on pre-
vious rates. The arrival of Fish Oils have been to a fair ex-

tent since this day week, but the deliveries are going on
largely, and greater than last season. Although Linseed Oil
can again be obtained upon lower term?, still the home
trade have operated with caution on the spot, large as the
consumption is, and moderate as prices are, but there
is a large quantity being produced, and the crushers are in-
clined to realise at 24s to 24s 6d per cwt; the shipping orders
are still falling off; and have become trifling. Rape Seed Oil
is at present not much wanted, and prices are easier. Palm
has been in excellent request, and the tendency of prices is
upwards. There has been a good business transacted in Cocoa
Nut Oil, and owning to small supply, quotations are look-
ing up.
TALLow.—Russian on the spot has been purchased with
eagerness by soap-makers and chandlers; the arrivals conti-
nuing to be small and much leas than they were last year, a
further advance in prices has taken place, fine new P.Y.C.
curreutly bringing 48s 6d per cwt., and at which high rates
there are not free sellers, owing to the small stock, and the
quantity to arrive being much less than last season. For
forward delivery the operations have been upon a large scale,
at advanced rates. Home made is much wanted, and the
supply being 'insufficient for the demand a further advance
in prices has taken place. All other sorts have been in ex-
cal nt request privately, and prices are yet cm the advance.
