NEWBURY, Nov. 9.—At this day's market there was a
mod( rate supply of wheat on offer, the condition being
much improved by the alteration in the weather. The
demand to-day has been good, and in most instances an

DEVIZES, Nov. 9.—The supply of Wheat te-day was
not so good as last week; old was much in request, as
also was the best description of new, and both sold
readily, the old at fully last week's prices, and the best
new at an advance of 6d a sack. In a few instances,
perhaps, a greater improvement was made; some par-
cols of not quite the best quality obtaining an advance of
is a sack; 31s was the top price of old, and 27s 6d of
new; for the inferior damp Wheats there was no de-
mand, but all of a saleable quality was quickly cleared
off. Barley was in large supply, and the trade very
dull. In Oats, Beans, and Pasts, there was but little do-
ing, and no alteration in price. Wheat, white, 60s

quarter; Flour, fine, 45s to 495; Seconds, 41s to 44s
per sack.
EXETER MARKET, FRIDAY.—Cattle Market—The
supply to-day was moderate, beasts were rather more
plentiful, and sheep rather less than on the last market
day. There was a good attendance of buyers, and
things moved on pretty steadily. Fat beef must be
quoted at from 8s 3d to 9s per score; cows and calves
were not much asked for, and sold at 81 Ss tto 141 each;
barreners, about 5s per score; the best fat wethers were
worth 6d per lb; ewes, 5d to sad; keeping sheep, 30s
to 38s each. Pork Carcases—A larger supply than last
week, which sold at from 8s to 9s per score.—Pannier
Market—Turkeys, 5s to 6s each; geese, 4s to 6s
ditto; ducks, 3s 6d to 5s per couple; fowls, 2s Gd to 4s ditto;

to 3s ditto; snipes, 9(1 ditto; butter, is per lb; eggs, 12
for Is; potatoes, is 2d to Is 4d per score; turnips, 4d
ditto; onions, 81b for is. Corn Exchange.—There
has been a slight advance to day on wheat, which has
sold from one to two shillings per quarter dearer than
last week. Old wheat, 7s 9d to 8s 3d per bushel; new
ditto, 6s to 7s 4d. A very fine Belgian wheat was on
offer, at 60s per quarter. Barley sold at 4s to 4s 3d per
bushel; new oats, 2s to 2s 4d; old ditto, 2s Gd to 2s 10d
per bushel; fine flour, 42s to 44s per sack of 2801bs.
TAVISTOCK FAIR, Nov. B.—This has been as large, or
perhaps the largest November fair known here. The
attendance of buyers being rather small, a very flat sale
was found in the morning. The graziers were, however,
ultimately obliged to yield, and a great number found
purchasers at prices very much below their expectations,
and less than the same beasts would have realised a
month since, at from lOs to 20s per head; best fat bul-
locks, 45s to 50s; general fat cows and steers, about 40s;
sheep, in great number, with a dull demand, at from 5d
to sial per lb.; cows and calves, of good quality, with a
fair demand. The horse fair was better attended than
usual, and of better general quality.
BRISTOL CORN MARKET. Nov. 9.—No change what-
ever took place in the prices to-day, and scarcely any
business was transacted.

the corn stacks, consisting of the produce of 14 acres of
barley, in flames. A messenger was immediately sent
to Rugby for the fire-engine, which was dispatched as
quickly as possible with four post-horses, from the Eagle
Hotel, preceded by Mr. Bromwich, the superintendent of
the fire brigade, who made such arrangements that no
delay took place in getting the engine to work. This.
seconded by a good supply of water, and the active
co-operation of a large number of people from Rugby,
Dunchurch, Cawston, Thurlaston, and Baton, had
the effect of confining the fire to the place
where it broke out, but, had not assistance
been so promptly rendered, the consequences must
have been most disastrous, the dwelling-house and
atacksyard being near the spot ; and, even as it
was, it required the utmost exertions of the assemblage
to save them from destruction. During the time the
fire was in its strength a stranger attracted the attention

questioned his replies were so unsatisfactory that he was
given into the custody of police constable Broughton, by
whom he was taken before Mr. J. Atty. The prisoner
gave the name of James James, and said he was 27
years of age, a native of Canterbury, and connected
with one of the most respectable families in the city.
He was for some time a book-keeper in a highly re-
spectable commercial house in Canterbury, but having
formed some loose connexions he disgraced himself
and lost his situation. Since that time he had became
reckless, and he did not now care what became of
him. Nothing, however, should induce him to give his
reel name, as he would rather suffer death than dis- '
grace the other members of the family, two of whom
held high official situations under Government. The
prisoner was ultimately remanded till 11 o'clock on Sa-
turday morning.
One solid block of Anglesey stone, weighing before
dressing twenty-seven tons, has just been placed in work
as part of the coping of the arch over the western en-
trance of the tunnel, by the Bangor station of the Chester
and Holyhead Railway. The arch is extremely massive,
and must have cost an immensity of money.— Welshman.
AMALGAMATION OP THE BOARD 01' STAMPS AND
TAXES WITH THE EXCISE DEPARTMENT.—II is under-
stood that the long contemplated union of the Excise
and the Stamps and Tax Department will shortly be
carried into effect. Mr. John Wood, the Chairman of
the Board of Excise, has been for some time past in
daily communication with the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer on the subject. The change has been pressed for-
ward in consequence of the largo number of Excise
officers who, by the operation of the Spirit Licenses Act,
are now rendered unnecessary. To ascertain the pre-
cise number that can be spared, a set of questions has
been sent from the Board of Excise to every supervisor
throughout the kingdom, to state to what extent the
officers in each district may be reduced in the altered
state of the law, and without injury to the public
service, and the answers that have been received show
that number to amount to upwards of eight hundred.
These officers have fse. the present been " dropped "
to half-pay ; and it is expected, should the plan
proposed take place, that they may be employed in
the collection of many of the taxes at present rece:ved
by local tax collectors, such as the income-tax, taxes
for horses and carriages, &c., aud, in fact, the whole of
those known as assessed taxes, without the charge of
poundage for collection, as in many cases allowed. Mr.
John Wood, the present Chairman of the Board of Ex-
cise, is spoken of as the proposed chairman of the new
board, and 11. L. Wickham, Esq., the present Chairman
of the Board of Stamps and Taxes, as vice-chairman.
Two Comaaissioners of Excise are expected to retire on
the superannuation allowance, and other alterations are
anticipated. A saving, it is said, will by this scheme
arise to the public, as at present the Excise has, to carry
its operations into eft ct, a chairman with a salary of
2,000/ ; deputy chairin,in, 1,5001 ; and five commissioners
at 1,2001. per annum each ; the Chairman of Stamps
and Taxis, 1,600/. ; the Deputy Chairman, 2,0001., with
several other officers with salaries varying between
1,000:. and 2,000/. It is expected that but a compara.
tively small additional number of persons to the present
Excise staff till be able to collect the revenue of both
departments.

ISLE or SLYE.—We are happy to hear from our
Skye correspondent, who writes on the 27th October,
that the harvest has been got over favourably:—" We
have had particularly fine weather for the harvest work
for a fortnight past, and the crops have been got in
better this season than for some years. Although the
return is perhaps rather below than above an average
in quantity, the condition in which the corn has been
got in will, I think, make up for this. We have had
very cold north wind during part of the time since my
and
last communication,week we had a little snow,
which, however, remained on the ground for a couple of
days only. We have since that time until to-day had
weather resembling, I should think, what in America
they call their Itidiansuinmer.' It has now become
wet and misty—the staple weather of this quarter; but I
believe there is very little corn now exposed in any part
of the island. The disease
continues, and this—for onlamong the potatoes stilly
a small quantity was
planted by some of the
people—has

Some Italian weeds have sprung up on a heap of

in this country.

The new system of prison discipline adopted in the
county gaol appears, so far as it has yet gone, to answer
admirably. All the magistrates from a distance who
have inspected it have left in the visitors' book expres-

of their satisfaction at the excellent management
of the prison and the manner in which the system is
carried out, some of them adding to it their conviction
that the sum laid out in the alteration has been judici-
ously expended. Upon the prisoners, too, so far as can
be judged from their own statements, the effect is
most salutary, moat of them expressing irksomeness at
the separate confinement, and many adding that they
are determined not to subject themselves to it again

TIVERTON MARKET, Nov. 7.—There was a tolerable
supply of grain, and a fair attendance of buyers, the only
old corn delivered to-day, was for previous contracts to
the millers. Of the new samples exhibited, many were
evidently in a melted state. The prices varied but little
from those of last week, namely from 5s to 6s Gd. The
samples of barley were also indifferent i❑ quality, and
bold at from 3s 3d to 4s; oats, 2s to 2s 6d; beef, best
joints, 61d and 7d; mutton, (small Exmoor), 4d to 41d;
best wether, ditto, 51(1 to 61d; pork joints, 51d to 61.4 ;
sides of bacon, 61d to 7d free of limbs; eggs, lld per
dozen ; butter, is per lb ; geese, 4s 6d to 5s 6d each ;
ducks, 3s to 4s per couple ; fowls, 2s 6d to 3s 6d ditto;
potatoes, Id per lb.
IPSWICH CATTLE MARKET, Nov. 7.—We had but a
moderate supply at market to-day ; scarcely any sheep,
and very few fat beasts ; a fair sprinkling of stores,
and a very good show of fat hogs ; trade exceedingly
dull; and fat beef and mutton remain much the same in
price. _ _ _

EYE, Nov. 7.—We had rather a thin attendance, in
consequence of Diss fair falling on the following day.
The prices both of wheat and barley were firm at last
week's terms ; but little business done, in the hope of
getting better prices at the fair.
WOODBRIDGE, Nov. B.—Our farmers are now SO
very much engaged in wheat-sowing that the supply of
all grain was this day very small. Wheat fully main-
tained its price. Barley was is per quarter lower.
BURY ST. EDMUND'S, Nov. B.—We had a small at-
tendance at market to-day. Wheat of the best quality
realised fully the terms of last week. Barley dull sale,
and may be quoted from is to 2s per quartr cheaper.
In other grain no alteration worth notice.
STOWMAEKET, Nov. 9.—We had a small market to-
'ay ; a moderate supply of barley, and a still smaller of
wheat, formed nearly the whole supply. The wheat was
iaken by our millers at fully late prices, but barley must
be called is per quarter lower. But few beans or peas
in offer, and prices the same as of late.
LLAMERCIIYMEDD, Nov. 9.—At this market on last
ednesday, the price of all kinds of grain was on the
1.• cline. Wheat averaged at from 52s to 53s ; barley,
•-)9s to 30s ; oats, 16s to 17s per quarter. At the
iutcho•s' stals beef was sold at from 411 to 5d per lb ;
veal, 5d to Gd ; mutton, 6d to 7d ; fat pigs, 311 to 4d ;
store pigs, 20s to 27s each ; young pit s, Ss to 10s ; fat
geese, 2s 9,1 to 3s; fat ducks, Is to is 3,1 each; lowls, is
to Is 6d per couple; fresh butter, 10d to lld per lb.
DENBIGH FAIR, Nov. 7 AND B.—At the cattle and
sheep fair, on Tuesday, the number and quality cx
hibited were not equal to the usual average, and the
,dealers in attendance being but few, the fair wore a
flat appearance. The business transactions that took
place were done at some reduction in puce for all de-
' ,criptions. The same observations will terve for the
h,iri,e fair—the show be.ng inferior, and few changed

M. LAMARTINE AND MR SMITH

O'BRIEN.

(From the Freeman's Journal.)
I forward herewith a letter from M. Lamartine, in
which that illustrious man positively contradicts the
statement that If Smith O'Brien had ever demanded
assistance from him for Ireland. The sentiments and
language of the letter cannot be surpassed. The follow-
ing is a hasty translation of this interesting document:—

" Montreau, Oct. 3, 1848.
" Sir,—You inform me that on the trial of Mr. S.
O'Brien there was alleged in accusation against him a
promise of assistance to make an insurrection in Ireland,
which, it was stated, he had obtained from me at a
special interview. I had, indeed, the honour of seeing
Mr. Smith O'Brien in Paris, but our conversa-
tion was almost entirely free from politics.
There did not pass between us a request or a promise
Hof succour of any kind whatever. The falsehood of the
reputed conversation is made manifest by the discourse
which I delivered at the Hotel de Ville, in reply to the
deputation from Ireland. That discourse is an official
contradiction of the misrepresentation in question. If,
in the meantime, you believe that a more direct denial is
necessary, I transmit you such, praying you to make it
public. Idu not tiring to my testimony, given before
•his scaffold, either the condescension of pity or the
partiality of affection. It is a deposition, simple and
formal as truth, which I forward to the courts in Dublin
on the faith of an cash sworn interiorly according to my
conscience and my memory.—Receive, Sir, the assurance
of my high consideration. " LAMARTINE."
" To Mr. John P. Leonard,
President of the Irish Committee in Paris."
