LIVERPOOL COUNTY COURT, Friday.

THE REP3I3,TEAS AND THE PRESS.
At half-past ten o'clock his Honour the Judge
opened the court. The attendance was very thin.
After some preliminary business, his Honour, in an
address, made another attack on the reports which
had appeared in the papers as not being sufficiently
full or accurate.
The only reporter then present challenged his
Honour to disprove the verity of any paragraph or
notice of his proceedings which he had ever written,
and said he felt convinced that there was no truly
recognised reporter of any paper in Liverpool who
dared to offsr the proprietor an account he was not
prepared by his notes to prove as accurate. Some
manifestations of applause were here indulged in, and
his Honour disclaimed any intention of alluding to
the reporter who addressed him ; ou the contrary,
he respected the courteous manner in which the
charge, had been repudiated. The reporter said he
was convinced, if the warm-heartedness of which his
Honour had spoken were sincere (which no one of
right mind would doubt after the solemn assevration of
his Honour), that the remark with regard to the re-
port was, at least, inconsiderate.
His Honour at the conclusion of the business of
the court again assured the reporter that he did not
intend to insult him, as he (the reporter) had ever
showed respect to that court.
The reporter thanked his Honour, but he begged
to observe that he was not speaking for himself alone
but for the profession to which he belonged, and that
he w:.3 only vindicating the character of honourable
men—men, he hoped, who were above suspicion, and
who were not present to defend themselves.
His Honour replied that, the reporter was only
taking a manly and straightforward course, and that
he was happy he had elicited the explanation.—

MINING INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Mining Journal of this day.)
ka the early part of the week the market presented
qilre a lasguid character for almost every description of
anares, but we are glad to report that within the last
few days it has returned to a more satisfactory condi-
tion, the mines operated in being both dividend and
speculative, whilst some concerns, which have lately been
at high prices, show symptoms of an early approxima-
tion to their intrinsic value. The market is, however,
a losing one to the majority of sellers, and is likely so
to continue, in consequence of the shares having been
burthened originally with premiums, which vanish when
the excitement which created them is over. The only
noticeable feature of the market is that dividend mines
are in the ascendant, and in many cases inquiries are
made without finding sellers. The news from the
mining districts is, generally, of a satisfactory character,
that from Ireland particularly so.
The Cern Brea Mines have declared their 80th divi-
desad-24 per share.
