MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London Neu; Price Current of Nov. 28.)
SUGAR.—To-day no change for the better took place
in the position of the Raw Sugar market, although sup-
plies were not so plentiful. For West India Musco-
vadoes the rates taken were in some cases rather under
those of Friday; there was in consequence a good busi-
ness concluded for refining purposes at from 33s
6d to 375, but grocers operated with caution in all
kinds. The total sales are 767 hhds, &c., including 150
hhds Barbadoes at auction, which went off flatly at barely
former rates; fine yellow at 40s 6d, good 37s to 38s 6d,
and middling 35s 6d to 36s 6d per cwt. Fur public sale
on Friday only one parcel of Sugar is declared, and
that consists of 1,200 bags of Bengal.
REFINED.—To-day there was much dulness in the
market for home trade Refined Goods. The value of
brown Lumps is 46s to 475, and of standard Lumps
47s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar still finds a free
sale at 25s 9d to 26s 6d per cwt.
MAURITIUS.—This afternoon there was little activity
in the market for Mauritius Sugar, and of 5,342 bags at
public sale, a small part only sold at a fall on the rates of
Friday of 6d per cwt; fine yellow went at 37s 6d to 38s,
good 36s to 375, middling 34s to 35,, low 33s to 333 6d,
middling to fine brown 30s to 32s 6,1, low to good grey
33s to 36s 6d, out of condition 28s 6d to 34s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon a dull demand existed
for Bengal Sugar, and 487 bags at public sale were all
taken in at 38s 6d for low soft white Benares, and at 30s
6d for the damp Khaur. For Madras little inquiry ex-
isted, and prices are rather lower.
FOREIGN.—To-day there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar, and privately only 1,000 chests of yellow Haven-
nah were sold at 18s to 18s 6d for middling. The ten-
di ncy of prices is to decline for most sorts of Foreign.
M or..assxs.—Holders of West India are firm, and in-

for Ceylon Coffee, and 760 bags 33 casks were:
public sale; Native only par, ly sold at the 'orni dat
Pr value,

lest inquiry existed to-day by private treaty. The sales
made in Foreign were of little moment, and the ten-
dency of prices is to recede. A public stile of 4,000 bags
f Costa Tea Coffee will take place en Friday.
TEA.—None has been submitted to public sale, but pri-
vaiely the market is well supplied. Black is rot offered
at way further reduction, yet town or country buyers are
not disposed to extend their purchases, and the market
has a dull aspect. Green met with little attention, and
can be obtained rather upon lower terms. Pekoe and
Scented Teas are offered upon lower terms, yet few buy-
ers are to be met with, and the supply yet far exceeds
the wants of the trade.

RICE.—To-day there was no public sale of East India
Rice, and privately the purchases made were trifling.
There are sellers of mid white Bengal at 103 6d to Hs,
and of fair pinky white Madras 8s 3d per cwt.

SAGO has not been much wanted, and rather lower
rates are now accepted. At auction 687 chts were
only in part sold ; fine small pearl at 19s 6d to 20s 6d,
mid and good rather bold 18s to 20s 6d, fine 22s 6d, low
brown 16s 6d. Farina is offered at 15s to 16s, and Sago
Flour at 16s to 16s 6d; few buyers are to be acct with.
Tapioca is, however, selling slowly at Gd to Bd.
SPICES.—For Nutmegs there is a fair demand, and
prices are firm; low and middling brown sold at 2s 4d
to 2s 10d, good middling and good 3s to 3s sd, fine
3s 6d to 3s 10d, and low to fine limed 2s to 2s 10d.
Mace finds buyers with more readiness at 2s to 2s Bd,
and fine 2s 9d to 3s. Cloves are not much wanted; Penang
can be at purchased at Is 3d to is 7d, Amboyna, 8d to is,
Bourbon and Zanzibar 6id to Ginger is not lower;
but only a small business has been done for home use or
exportation. For Cinnamon the market is quiet. Of
Black Pepper none has been offered at public auction,
and privately only small parcels have been sold, not-
withstanding the low rates current. Sumatra of clean
quality is to be obtained at 24d, low grey dusty Penang
at 2d, Malabar 2i to 24d, and shot at 2kd to 3d. White
is yet in small supply, and is wanted at 4d to sid, fine
Gd to 9d per lb. Pod is dull of sale at 40s to 60s per
cwt. The supply of Pimento has fallen off, and there is
a fair demand at 4id to 5d for mid to good; none ht.s
been offered at auctiun.

SPIRITS.—For Leeward Island Rum prices have fur-
ther declined, but a much better demand has beenex-
perienced, and the purchases reach 800 puns; good
brown at is 3id to is 4d, for proof and plain quality
Is 3d, the chief part realised Is 2id. East India is little
wanted, only 50 hhds of fine have been sold at Is 4d
proof, and small parcels of common at is 3d. In Deme-
rara a good business has been concluded, but upon
rather lower terms. The sales reach 300 puns, at 2s to
2s 2d for 30 to 38 per cent over proof. Jamaica has been
been dealt in with caution for all purposes, and prices
keep on the decline; in fine marks no variation is appa-
rent. We quote plain 28 to 30 per cent over proof at 2s
8 to 2s 10d, middling 30 to 33 over 2s 10d to 3s, good
mid and good 34 to 36 over 3s 2d to 3s Bd, and fine 3s
9d to 4s 2d. Cuba is dull of sale, and is not worth more
than is 2d per gallon proof. We cannot quote
Brandy cheaper, but the buyers operate with
caution, although deliveries continue upon a
large scale. The value of Cognac, best brands of the
vintage of 1845, is .5s Id to 5s 3d, ditto 1846
4s 9d to 4s 11d, ditto 1847 3s 9d to 3s I Id,
inferior marks 3s- to 3s 4d, Bordeaux 2s 4d to
2s 9d, Spanish 2s 2d to 2s 4d, and French 50
per cent over proof 2s to 2s 3d per gallon. For British
made Spirit prices are not lower, but the market is iu a
quiet state. There is a fair export demand at 3s to
3s 3d proof. Geneva is not much wanted, the export
value is, however, 2s to 2s 2d, and of fine for duty 2s 6d
to 3s 6d per gall.
FRUIT.—To-day at auction 975 boxes of Jordan
Almonds were all taken in at 71 to 71 10s, a small part
101 5s ; 123 casks of Dates, and 9 baskets of

taken in at 40 ; 255 ditto of Chesme at 30s ;
200 ditto of Carabourna at the same rate ; 700
drums of Sultana Raisins all withdrawn ; 1,585

Prunes, quarter and half barrels 223 to 235, one-eighth
ditto 245, cases and half cases 25s to 260, and quarter
ditto 28s.

SALTPETRE.—With rough the market is still sparingly
supplied, and former rates well kept up, as ex-
porters and hime trade buyers are anx.ous to
do business. The prices paid for low to mid
Calcutta are 25s to 265, and for good to fine
26s 6d to 27s per cwt. None has been offered at auction.
For English refined much demand exits at 28s 6d to
29s,at which there are not tree sel'ers, and several orders
are unexecuted. A good demand exists for Nitrate of
Soda at Its 6d to 12s per cwt. whilst holders, however,
evince more firmness. For Tuesday next a public sale
of 2,000 bags of Calcutta is declared.
COCHINEAL.—To-day there was more desire mani-
fested to operate, and 100 bags of Honduras at auction
all sold at 3s 7d to 3s lld for mid and good mid silvers,
which are full rates; 20 bsgs of Mexican were taken in
at 3s 7d, and black 3s Ild to 4s 2d.

TALLOW.—Russian on the spot has met with less
attention, and on the part of merchants more desire is
shown to sell on account of the increasing stock. For
fine P.Y. Candle the rates accepted are 45s to 458 3d
per cwt, and only a moderate amount of business has
been concluded. For delivery up to the close of
the year sellers are willing to accept 44s 5d to
to 44s 9d, few buyers are to be met with, and little
business has been concluded for the early part of 1849.
Home made is less wanted, and 44s 6d to 453 is the
value nett cash on the spot, the stock is yet
large. Fur other sorts of Tallow the market is
quiet, and prices are receding. At auction 76 casks of
Italian were sold at 42s to 44i 6d; 20 casks of Sydney,
good and fine 43s to 45s 3d, low to middling 413 6d to
42s 9d; and 21 cks of South American, very low soft
30a 6d to 335, and 7 cks Taganrog 433 per cwt. For
auction 400 cks are declared for Friday. Rough Fat is
quoted at 2s 7d per stone of Sibs.
OILS.—Th market has assumed a more satisfactory
appearance for common Fish Oils, arrivals continue to
come in slowly, whereas deliveries are getting better,
and the quantity on offer is smaller. Cod met with a
good sale, and realised 231 10s. Holders display
firmness, and some would not accept that rate to-day.
I❑ all sorts of Seal a large amoun t of business.
Linseed met with a brisker home demand and some
export orders have beeu completed, still prices do not
rise, and rule, at 21e 9d per cwt on the spot, as the sup-
pi) is plentiful. Rapeseed sells with more readiness
Palm is still in small supply, and is wanted.
Lard Oil ,is selling at 42s for fine English, and at
41s for American. Cocoa Nut is et dull of sale with
an increased sunly, and prices are looking down. At
auction 228 hhd6, 4S butts, and 23 pipes of Cochin were
nearly all taken in at 37s to 40s ; 35 pipes 27 puns, and
63 hhds Ceylon 37s to 39s per cwt. On Friday 153 cks
of Palm will be offered at auction. To day there was
an active demand for Linseed Oil, and prices advanced
to 22s to 23s 3d prr cwt on the spot.

(BAILERS' ASSIZE ASSOCIATION.
Last night, at eight o'clock, a meeting of master
bakers, from different parts of the metropolis, was held
at the London Coffee-house, Snow-hill, for the purpose
of receiving the report of the committee, in reference to
the steps taken by the above association, in order to se-
cure uniformity in the price of bread throughout the
metropolis.
Mr. EDWARDS, having been called to the chair, said
that for a long time past their trade bad been injured by
the interference of men who will not be regarded in any
other light than dishonest tradesmen.—(Hear.) These
were parties who had been in the habit of selling articles
of an inferior description, which were vended to the in-
jury of the trade, they being sold at a low [nice, and
also to the injury of the public, inasmuch as it was the
fact, that articles of a mischievous, if not of a delete•
rious, nature were distributed to the public. It was,
a fact, which was well known to the present meeting,
that, by the use of a certain kind of seed, the farmer
was enabled to obtain nine combs (or sacks) of wheat to
the acre, while, under the old sj s;.em, when the people
had the whole of the glutin, or nutritious part of
the grain, there was not obtainable more than five
combs per acre.—(Hear.) They e ere well aware that
the flour they hart to use in their business now eas
scarcely anything like what it was 15, or even 10, years
ago. The millers and bakers both suffered from this
state of things, and be thought it was most desirable that
something should be done to protect the trade and the
public.—(Hear.)
Mr. BROOKS (the secretary) observed that the objects
of the association were to create a better and more
friendly understanding among all the members of the
trade, and to promote, by every lawful means, the inte-
rest of the general body without prejudice to any.
Resolutions were then adopted in accordance with the
principles expressed by the secretary.
Reports from the district associations of Westminster,
St. Pancras, Paddington, Southwark, the eastern part of
London, &c., were given in, which declared their adhe-
sion to the objects of the association; and it was unani-
mously resolved that a circular should be distributed
among the trade, in order to accomplish the objects con-
templated.
After subscriptions had been received, thanks were
voted to the Chairman.
The meeting then adjourned.

SPANISH BONDHOLDERS.
Yesterday a large meeting of Spanish bondholders
took place at the London Tavern, Bihop.gate-street,
for the purpose of agreeing to a memorial to the Spa-
nish Government, in respect to the claims of the bond-
holders.

JAMES CAPEL, Esq., took the chair, and stated that
there was now a favourable ()cession for again memorial-
ising the Spanish Government, as a Spanish gentleman
of much influence would engage to present it to the
Duke of Valencia, by which they exist cted much more
success than if it were done by one of theu:s,Aves. He
was sorry that the late discussion in Parliament had of-
fered some cause of displeasure to the Spanish Govern-
ment. There was no doubt that a resident Commis-
sioner in Madrid, 'one who was a skilful negotiator and
unconnected with politics, would be useful; such a per-
son could be had, but the means of sending him would
be wanting. It was in vain for them to present mtmi-
rials to foreign Ministers in Spain, unless they took the
matter up where they left off; if they ust d hard worth,
our Ministers should use hard blows; but that was not
likely. There was one thing of importance to them,
which was, that all the bonds that had been pid in for
the national domains had beet: burnt, and could not be
re-issued.

Mr. Moss asked if they knew the amount.
The CHArnmkri said from five to six millions sterling,
--(Hear, hear.) He had understood that some gentle-
men were taking means to organize alioeher committee;
all he could say was, that if so, he should have great
pleasure in lending them his aid.—(Hcar, hear.) The
only object of his taking so much interest in their affairs
was that he and his friends represented about 6,000,000/.
or 7,000,0001. of the bonds. He bad been advised, in
drawing up the memorial, by thre e gentlemen who were
well conversant with Spain and Spaniards—one was now
resident in Madrid, and another's life bud been sperit
amongst Spaniards. The Chairman then read the me-
morial to the bondholders.

The document merely stated the claims of the bond-
holders, in the ordinary way, and was addressed to the
Field. Marshal the Duke of Valencia, with a request that
he would submit it to his colleagues, and then lay it be•.
fore the Cortes for their consideration.
Mr. WALE? was very much sati)fied with the wording
of the memorial, and would move its adoption.
Mr. D. MOCATTA secondtd it.
_ .

Mr. HENDERSON, jun., alluded to the great efforts
made by his father and M. Lerreps to get an arrange
meat from the Government, all which ended in notktiog.
1e questioned whether any better fate would attend this
memorial; still he did not oppose the memorial.
Mr. D. MOCATTA. could not see the reason why they
should now fail because they failed be:bre ; he thought
they were much indebted to the Chairman for drawing
up the memorial.—(Hear.)
The Cuaramarr said they ought to be more indebted
to Mr. Stokes.

Mr. STOKES said it must not be thought he was the
gentleman who was going to present the memorial.
It appeared that a letter had been sent over by the
Dutch committee, who urged the appointment of a Com-
missioner, but that was thought impracticable.
The memorial was adopted unanimously.
Mr. WALLY then moved, and Mr. LINDo seconded, a
vote of thanks to the Chairman, which was passed
unanimously, when the meeting adjourned.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
OLD COURT:

Charles Lipsham and Thomas Worce,ter were in-
dieted for unlawfully obtaining money by false pretences.
Mr. Clarkson and Mr. Sleigh prosecuted; Mr. lorry
appeared for the defence.
Mr. CLARKSON, in opening the case, said that before
he informed the jury of the circumstances under which
the charge was preferred, he felt it his duty to tell them
that the offence alleged against the prisoners was con-
nected with one of those proceedings termed Derby or
racing sweeps, which, if not clearly laid (low,' to be
illegal, were cet taily considered to be vs ry mischievous
in their tendency. The prosecutor of the indictment
was Mr. William Harris, a respectable licensed victu-
aller, in Southwark, and who had been extensively en-
gaged in carrying out " met ps " of this description; but
he should state to the jury that since the public expres-
sion by the magistracy of London of the illegality of these
proceedings, he had resolved to have nothing more to do
with them. The fraud imputed to the prisoners was com-
mitted in June last, and there could be very little doubt
that a sum of money was obtained from the prosecutor
by means of a fraud, and he apprehended that what-
ever opinion might be entertained regarding the ille-
gality of the sweep in every lottery system, that this
would afford no justification for the conduct of the pri-
soners, if it should be satisfactorily established that they
were the authors of the fraud. The Learned Counsel
then proceeded to state the circumstances under which
the charge was preferred. It appeared that in June a
sweep was open at the house of the prosecutor, the
Equestrian Tavern, in the Blackfriars-road, for one of
the races to be run at Ascot, each chance in which was
55., and the holder of the first horse was to be entitled
to 71. Two persons, named Cockley and Davidge, pur-
chased a joint chance in this sweep, and the
ticket, numbered 34, referring to a horse named
Vampyre, was drawn for them, and this horse
turned out to be the winner of the race. The defend-
ant, Lipsham, acted as clerk to Mr. Harris, and ma-
naged the different sweeps, and it was his duty to
have given intelligence to the parties who were
the winner of the prizes ; but instead of doing so, it
seemed that he masked the name of Davidge upon the
ticket of a horse called Feargus, and retained the
'sinning ticket in his possession. Very soon alter the
race, the other defendant, Worcester, went to the pro-
secutor's house and tendered the ticket referring to
Vampire, and Mr. Harris, having no suspicion, paid
him the amount of the prize. It turned out upon in-
quiry that Worcester was brother-in-law to the prisoner,
and the latter, when he was apprehended, admitted that
he had had the money from Worcester, but said that he
had been picked up the same night, and had lost the
whole of it. The Learned Counsel having concluded his
statement of the tacts, said that the question to be de.
Bided in this case was quite apart from any considera-
tion as to the prudefice or propriety of carrying on these
sort of proceedings, and was simply. whether a servant
could have any justification for obtaining possession of
his master's property by a false pretence.
Mr. Barris, the prosecutor, was then examined, and
he proved the facts as stated by the Learned Counsel.
He said that Lipsham was engaged by him to keep the
accounts connected with the different sweeps, and he had
the means of knowing who were the winners. On the
13th of June, after the race, Worcester presented the
genuine ticket to him. He at the time did not know
that he was related to the other defendant, and he paid
him the amount of the prize, and soon afterwards, from
information he received, be discovered that a fraud had
been practised, and he paid the prize a second time to the
parties who were really entitled to it. He added, that
he afterwards went, accompanied by a policeman, to the
house of Worcester, and on his being questioned he ad-
mitted that he had received the money. but said that he
presented the ticket at the request of Lipsham, and he
had no benefit from the transaction.
In answer to questions put by Mr. HOARY, Mr. llarris
said that be took no tickets, and had no interest in any
of the sweeps at his house himself, and he also forbade
his servants from taking any chances in there.
Mr. HOARY here submitted to the Court that the
charge could not be sustained, inastnuch as the whole
transaction was one of a gambling and illegal charac-
ter; and that the prosecutor had no such legal interest
in the money as would entitle him to the protection of
the law.

Some discussion ensued upon this point, but at length
The RECORDER said that, although the transaction
might be of an illegal character, m
et he did not thk
the objection would apply to the charge of obtaining
money from the prosecutor by fa'se pretei.ces. Ile would,
however, he said, reserve Oconside-
ration, point for farther
if such a course should become necessary.
William Rotnayne, the constable who apprehended
Worcester, was then examined, and he deposed that
when he took him into custody he denied all k,:owl. dge
of any fraud, and said that he mercly press nted th,
ticket at the request of his brother-in-law, and that he
handed him over all the money.
The RECORDER expressed his opinion that the evi
derce did not support the charge of conspiracy. The
evidence just as much tended to show thAt Worcester
was the instrument merely of Lipsham, as that he was a
co-conspirator with him.
Mr. CLARESON said he felt the difficulty supposed by
his Lordship, and as he had no further evidence to con-
nect that person with the transaction, he should with-
draw from the prosecution.
The RECORDER then addressed the jury, and ex-
plained to them that by the law a charge of conspiracy

could not be supported unless two persons at least were .
shown to be concerned in it, and, therefore, as the evi-
dence kited in this case to establish the fact, they must
acquit the defendants. But, at the same time, said he
could not help stating that this was a most useful lesson
for persons who were conrn cted with such illegal and
dishonest proctedings as these racing sweeps in his
opinion charly were. It was a proceeding merely
for the purpose of getting custom and profit in a
most improper manner. There was no pretence
for saying that it promoted the interest of the'
turf, aid it had none of the justification that was ex-
tended to horse racing as tending to improve the bret d
of lit rse:,.. On the contrary, it was entirely mischievous
in its action, and only had the effect of inducing persons
to gamble and speculate small sums of money, in the
hope of obtaining a larger amount, and had, in fact, no-
thing to do with racing. It had happened to him on
several occasions to hear persons who hail been con-
victed of larceny in that court ascribe the commission
of the crime to the temptation held out to them to j..in
these miserable lotteries, or sweeps as they were
termed, and he was not sorry to see that those who
encouraged such proceedings were ultimately sufferers
by tin na.
The jury then, under his Lordship's direction, re-
turned a verdict of Not Guilty.
The RECORDER, in handing back to the prosecutor the
tickets connected with the sweep, observed that he hoped
that he should never again see such things in a court of
justice, He, at the same time, advised the pros: cutor
not to have anything more to do with Derby sweeps in
future.

Mr. Harris said he bad given them up entirely.
The RECORDER said he had acted wisely in so zoing, for
ir,dependeot of the risk he ran with regard to his house,
he would be liable under a particular statute, to a penalty
of 5001. if his connexion with such a lottery us these
Derby sweeps clearly were, was made out.

THE LATE MR. DUCROW'S
SISTE G.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Having observed in your journal, a few days
since, a police report of Lambeth-street, %%herein it
state d that relief had been given to my wife (tbe late
Mr. Ducrow's sister), I had but one recourse, to imme-
diately forward to the magistrate, at Lambeth Police-
office, the full particulars and documents, contradicting
the statements of desertion, and now respectfully soli-
cite, through the medium of your valuable journal, the
publicity of this letter, as a public man, in vindication of
my character.
Being miles from London, I have no other remedy
than to claim your justice, and that of the magistrate to
whom I sent the amount of sums weekly paid, from the
period of our separation in 1841, one year before her
brother's death (and not afterwards as she states), the
cause of which separation is well known to the pro•
fession and all the members of her family, as I am the
last husband of the three sist•_rs, aid each husband was
obliged to separate from their wives.

her receiving a weekly sum (as I rise or fall), she will
receive it. It is not my %%ish for her to starve,
as you will perceive by the sums already paid, and as
the truth must out, my wardrobe, propertiecs, &c.,
all have been sold to keep her when I was out of a
situation ; and I do not care now how far my exertions
ate given to psy money for her living, so that I am not
insulted and reminded of the cause of my fate. Apolo-

COLLISION ON TIIE BRIGHTON AND SOUTH COAST
RAILWAY.—A collision took pace on this line yesterday
morning. A goods train which bad left Brighton at
half-past six for Portsmouth, was stopping at the King-
ston station, about three miles from Brighton, when a
passenger train, which left Brighton at five minutes past
seven, came up, and though the stop signals were ex-
hibited and a red light waved to intimate imminent
danger, the train ran into the goods train with great
violence, smashing some of the carriages of the latter.
Several of the passengers were hurt by the shock, and
some bled, but none sustained serious injury. The line
was strewed with the wrecks of broken carriages, and
two hours elapsed before the traffic could be resumed.
John Pemberton, the driver of the passenger train, was
apprehended and brought up before the magistrates sit-
ting at the Town-hall, Brighton, and charged with mis-
conduct. Evidence was given that the stop-signals
were hoisted, and red lights waved, which could be
seen and were seen half a mile off by the guard of the
train; and that the train, when first perceived, wds
going at from 40 to 50 miles an hour, which was much
beyond the usual pace. He was fined 5/. or a month's
imprisontncW.
THE BURNING OF THE GLASGOW ADELPIII
THEATRE.—We learn that from the peculiar circum-
stances connected with the recent fire in the Theatre
Adelphi, the au'horities and the chief superintendent of
p.)lice have considered it their duty to make a rigid in-
vestigation into the matter. It would be improper to
enter into details, but we feel warranted in sa) ing that
we believe:a considerable quantity of dresses, decorations,
and properties, which were supposed to be consume 1,
have been recovered, and now lie in the Paisley police-
office.—Glasgow Constitutional.

ceedings under which he was cashiered. The master.,

ELECTRIC LIGHT.—The Electric Light of M. Le
Mott, was tried on Saturday eyeliner last, in the train
which ran down to Exeter on the Great Western Rail-
way. At half-past six o'clock, a truck, containing a
wooden square box, about the size, though not the shape
of a sentry box, and having a galvanic battery of ifome
sixty or si venty small
,jars disposed around it, was at-
tached to the last carriage of the train, then about to
proceed from Paddington. The light was produced in-
side the box, and the rays, condensed and heightened by
a powerful reflector, were emitted by an aperture con-
trived for the purpose. The light was produced before
the train left Paddington, when a dazzling blaze filled
the whole of the spacious station, casting the numerous
gas lamps there coaapletely in the shade. As the train
proceeded on its way, the reflection left a long train of
clear bright light for the distance of a mile and
more behind it, in such a manner as to ren-
der it utterly impossible that any train coming up
behind should run into it, except as the effect of delibe-
rate intention. The reflection, as seen from the carriage
was very beautiful, the prismatic colours being distinctly
and vividly delineated along the outer edge of the circle
of radiation; and as these tell upon the dense column of
smoke ascending from the engine, the affect was singular
aril striking. The night was dark, but clear, and so
far favourable to the experiment; and objects, such as a
bridge, was rendered distinctly visible at the distance of
about two miles 1 The experiment was made as far as
Slough, on arriving at which station the truck was de-
tached from the train, and continued there for about
half an hour, till the up-train arrived, with which it re-
turned to town. While at Slough, a gentleman sta-
tioned himself at a distance of 200 yards or so from the
apparatus, and could read a newspaper by the light pro-
duced, which be found he could do with perfect ease.—

Rector of St. Mary's, Lambeth. At the close of the ser-
vice five young woman, who have been brought up in
the Asylum, n ct,ived from the Royal President the re-
wards periodically bestowed upon the more meritorious
pupils, as an encouragement to diligence and good con-
duct. A liberal subscription was made in aid of the

THE MURDER OF THE POLICEMAN BRIGHT.—At

George Whataaore, a youth, was brought up, charged
upon his own statement with bring an accessory b, fore

evidence, that the prisoner had said that he knew es
much as any one about the murder of Bright, and had
seeds other statements with respect to Bright's death,
which caused Mr. Newton to apprehend him. After
being lodged in the lock-up a shunt time, he requested to
see Mr. Newton, the chief constable, to whom he offered
to tell all he knew of the murder " if he would forgive
hitu." Mr. Newton, of course, told him he could make
no promise of any description, and the prisoner then

CHAPEL PROPERTY IN JERSEY.

The following letter has been addressed to Dr. Bow-
ing, M.P., on this subject:—

Akterbury Loda,e, Les Vaux, Jersey,
Novetnbi.r 23, 1843.

Sir,—ln the month of August, last year, you were
kind enough to lay before the Secretary of State a peti-
tion from several congregations of Protestant Dissenters
in Jersey, praying for a reform of our laws affecting
real property, so as to provide for trusts and uses, in
order that Dissenters may be enabled to perpetuate their
chapels t) religious purposes with perfect security, and
enjoy the same rights, liberties, and franchises in Jersey
as they would if they were living in England.
The Dissenters are sensible of the interest you took
in their behalf, and feel grateful that it should have had
the effrct of enlisting the attention of her Majesty's
Government to the it %ants; but, as those wants have
not yet been redressed, and very serious consequf aces
threaten them, owing to it, I am induced to trouble you
again on that subject.

-It will be nu ce;sary, however, to acquaint you with
what has been done, before I enter into particulars of
the calamities which are now approaching us. In the
beginning of November, of last year, Sir George Grey
transmitted this petition t..) the Lieutenant-Governor,
and strongly recommended that immediate measures
should be taken by the States of Jersey to redress the
grievance complained of. It was brought before the
AFsembly on the 11th of that month, and referred to
a committee composed of two Juratf, two Rectors, and
two Constables, who were charged to prepare a Bill on
the subject. The committee, however, failing to do
anything, a gentleman who takes great int-rest in the
matt. r, wrote to the Secretary of State, upon which
Sir George Grey called on the authorities to report
progress, when the committee became alarmed, and met
to proceed with their work ; but finding themselves
utterly incompetent to the task, they prevailed on the
Attorney• General Dupre to undertake it—with whom
it is likely to remain, unli.ss more vigorous measures
are adopted.

We had already experienced a foretaste of the inse-
curity of chapel property by the operat.io❑ of our bank-
rupt laws. To be brief, a chapel built for the Inde-
pendents, and another for the Baptists, were lost, and
made liable for the private debts of the parties who pur-
chased the ground, notwithstanding they had recon
veyed the buildings to persons who, it was thought, held
them in trust for special purposes; and we are now upon
the verge of experiencing more serious robseries. A
large chapel, built some years ago, at an expense of
3,0001., by the Wesleyan Methodis!s, and placed in
trust, is in jeopardy through the bankruptcy of one of
the trustees, for notice has been served on all the parties
to bring in that title-deed for insertion in the decree—in
other words, to choose whether they will substitute the
bankrupt, by taking to his debts and assets, or surrender
the property as part and parcel of his estate.
Since then another chapel, Lelonging to the Unitarians,
has been notified for plunder. This was originally built
by the Independents, and placed in trust (I) but subse
quently sold by the trustees to the Unitarians, who have
held it about two years. It turns out, however, that
the private property of one of those trustees
is become overcharged with debt, and the mort-
gage es have given notice to the holders of the chapel
to substitute the bankrupt by taking his property and
paying his hypothecations, or surrender the chapel to
the next who shall be entitled to that option. I for-
ward you one of our local journals, that contains the
public notice to this effect from the attorney who
is conducting this bankruptcy, in order that you may
see it.

It is necessary that you should understand that the
bankrupts in these cases never possessed one shilling of
interest in the chapels; the money was furnished by the
religious communities to whom they belong; and it is a
very great hardship that the latter should be plundered
under odour of an antiquated custom, because one of
their trustees is unable to fulfil his own engagements.
But it would be just the same if the prior owner of the
ground became bankrupt, as in that ease the trustees
would have to substitute him in his rights and discharge
his prior debts, or surrender the chapel to the common
stock for another to do it. There is no such thing as
setting apart a property for any use whatever under the
old feudal law of Normandy, for, as that law is prac-
tised in Jersey, it must be mixed up with the private
property of every one thrLugh whose hands it pssses,
and become subject to the laws of inheritance, bank-
ruptcy, and forfeiture.

Surely, Sir, it is not reasonable or just that the buyer
of a property should be called on to take to the estate
and effects of the seller, or for the seller to take to the
property of the buyer, with additional charges, or other-
wise lose their respective rights? Why should the
vendee be encumbered with the bricks and mortar of the
vendor, or viee versa, according to whichever side the
bankruptcy may arise? and this for a period of forty
years! It is monstrous and roguish too. Every dis-
tinct property ought to be liable only for its special in-
cumbrances, and not to be mixed up as it now is with
each other.

There are at least fifty chapels in the island, which
must have cost in the aggregate upwards of 25,000 L,
exposed to these risks, in which perhaps 20,000 Dissen-
ters are interested. This state of things is really de-
plorable, and calls loudly for redress. It is vain, how-
ever, to petition the States, or Local Assembly, one-
third of which is composed of Church parsons, who have
no community of feeling with us; another third of
jurats, who are opposed to the enactment of any laws;
and the remainder of constables—men who, with the
exception of two or three, have not even sufficient
capacity to write out the charges they present
with their prisoners, much less to devise legislative
remedies for these grievances. It is therefore pre-
posterous to look to them for redress. Now the kind
of redress which we waist is the prompt and energetic
intervention of her Majesty's Government, to originate
a law for the purpose. There are petitions lying with
the Clerk of the Rolls of our Assembly crowded with
signatures, in whose custody they have been for years,
some praying for on alteration of the laws of inherit-
ance, to enable persons to Hit and devise real estate,
others to aholi:h seignorial rigi,its,' to create trusts, and
set apart chapels for religious purposes, without being
subject to bankruptcy or torfeiture. I have, therefore,
to beg—first, that you will be kind enough to press
those reforms on the consideration of the Secretary of
State; and if you should find him disposed to entertain
them, I have, secondly, to request that you will be
pleased to suggest to him the propriety of his ordering
a return to be made of those petitions, with such ob-
servations thereon as the states of Jersey may be pre-
pared to make, within a given time; and, lastly, that you
will be pleased to urge him to bring the whole under the
consideration of the Queen in Council, in order that her
Majesty might legislate thereon.
1 beg to renew my sincere thanks for the very able
and zealous manner in e Weft you have seconded my
Oforts in the cause of reform, and to subscribe myself;
Sir, your most obedient, very humble„ and ever faithful
servant, ABRAHAM JONES LE CRAB,
Author of a work entitled "The Laws, Customs,
and Privileges of the Island of Jersey."
