MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

COIIN.-EXCHANGE—FRIDAY.
Since Monday the arrivals of English Wheat, coast-
wise, as well as by land carriage, have been very mode-
rate. To day the show of samples of both red and
white was very small. Although the accounts received
to-day are unfavourable as regards .the appearance of
the winter wheats, the demand for. all kinds of Wheat
of home produce, owing to the pressure of: foreign par-
cels, was by no means active; yet previous rates were
steadily supported in every instAnce. Nearly 12,000
quarters of foreign Wheat have come. in this week. Fine
parcels moved off steadily; other kinds slowly, at late
rates. Fine Bailey, both English and Foreign—com-
manded a ready sale, at extreme currencies; and the
value of other kinds was well supported. Malt was in
steady request, but we have no improvement to notice
in value. Oats and Beans moved off steadily, at full
prices. Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour ruled about sta-
tionary.

Our market to-day was but moderately supplied with
Beasfs as to number,- though the general quality was
good.. The primest Scots, &c., were in steady request,
at fully Monday's quotations. Otherwise, the Beet trade
was in a sluggish state. The supply of foreign Beasts
was by no means largo ; but that of Sheep and Calves
was somewhat on the increase. From Scotland we re-
ceived nearly 200 Scots. Owing to the unfavourable
state of the weather for slaughtering, the demand for all
breeds of Sheep was somewhat inactive ; but we have no
actual decline to notice in prices. Lambs warn a very
slow inquiry, and late rates were with difficulty sup-
ported. In Pigs very little was doing at our quotations.
Milch Cows were dull, at prices varying from 141, 106.
to 181. each, including their small calf'.

It appeared that the plaintiff in this case, wishing to
dispose of an omnibus, sent it to the repository of Mr.
reception on the ground of misdirection,
Robinson, in Little Britain, for the purpose of its being
sold in the usual manner. Upon the day fixed for the
sale of, the omnibus by auction, the plaintiff sold it in a
private manner, in the defendant's yard, to a Mr.
Smith, for the sum of hOL The omnibus was, however,
put up for sale, and sold by the defendant. Upon the
following morning a notice of the previous sale by the
plaintiff to Smith was served upon the defendant, and
Smith claimed from the defendant the proceeds of the
sale of the omnibus by the defendant, upon the ground
that the plaintiff had parted with his interest in the
property to him. The plaintiff also claimed the money
from the defendant, and.the present notion was•brought
in consequence of the defendant refusingtnhand, over
the proceeds., Upon thetrial the plaintiff was noasui6d,

Two questions arose on the case ; first, that the
money had and received, for the omnibus was paid
over to, and was the property of Mr. ;Smith, to whom
the plaintiff had transferred his right in the property.
In this case, the plea of non-assutnpsit was a bad one.
The second point was, that Mr. Smith admitted in his
evidence that the defendant and himself were jointly
defending the action, and that he was, therefore, a party
to the suit, and as such his evidence ought not to have
been received.
Rule granted.
(Sittings at Nisi Prins before Mr. Baron ALDERSON
and Common Juries.)
Several undefended cases were disposed of. There
were two defended cases also before the Court, neither
of which, however, possessed any feature of public itu-
importance.
