DIED.—At Greenwich, on the 23d instant,
suddenly, GEORGE WATSON SMYTH, Esq., of New Bond-
stree., in the 31st year of his age.
" The Fair of May Fair" has at length come
forth to gratify the curiosity excited by its piquant title; it
is evidently the production of a My-writer, shrewd, pene-
trating, and full of worldly wiselorn—sneering and sir-
csatic--intimately acquainted with the artificial manners
of polished life—conversant in all matters appertaining to
dress, matrimony, and elopements; in abort of one of those
few writers of the present day on whose pages the courtly
and the high bred look quite in character.
LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY EVENING.—At our
Corn Exchange this morning there was a thin attendance
of the trade, and small show of samples of fine wheat and
oats. Holders of wheat were asking Id. per 701 b. ad-
vance on former prices for the best description, which was
realised in the sales made, but buyers purchased sparingly,
and only for their immediate wants ; middling samples,
however, were flat, and not any dearer. Oats, too, were
held for more money, the finest Irish reaching 2s. 10d. to
2s. 104 d., and middling 2s. 7d. to 2s. Sid., and the
transactions were to a moderate extent. In malt, barley,
beans, pease, or Indian corn, little dune, but prices were
unaltered. Fine fresh flour in fair request at Is. advance,
48s. being got for the best Irish. Meal, too, was saleable,
and tid. higher. For wheat and flour under lock there
were few inquiries.

-,,nk

CONTE.74IPT.

Mr. DUNN moved, that an elderly lady, a defendant it
the Guise, should he committed to the Fleet, for contempt,
;n not putting in her answer.
The VICE-CHANCELLOR ordered the prisoner to b,

In so by her solicitor.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR inquired who that solicitor was.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR—Has that solicitor explained
's you the consequences of not putting in your answer ?

The VICE-CHANCHLLOIL-Then I will explain it t/
you. You will have to go to the Fleet prison, and thenremain till ynu do put in your answer ; and if you are ob•

TIIE MONEY MARKET.

(From the Times.)
The settlement of the account in Consols took place to-
day (Wednesday) without any casualties being announced.
Since the last settling day there has been a rise in prices of
about two per cent., and, on the whole, it is understood
that the members of the Stock Exchange are not losers
on the time-bargains. There was a considerable demand
fur money in the course of the day, owing to some large
sales of stock made on behalf of the savings-banks, the
condition of which was, that the stock should be paid for
in Bank notes. The rate of continuation to the next ac-
count, which is fixed for the 18th of July, became con-
sequently higher than bas been known for a long period
before ; the last price of Consols for money being quoted
851 to -I, and for the opening in July 85i to No diffi-
culty existed in supplying the demand for money on the
terms offered, though it tended perhaps to check the ad-
vance of the Funds, which is to be looked for from the
tranquillizing effect on the public mind of th ! present
situation of the Reform question. There are a few persons
to be met with among the monied interest, who consider
that public credit cannot stand on a very secure basis,
until it is known what the nature will be of the new ar-
rangements with the Bank. The evidence before the Com-
mittee, upon which this question is to be decided, will be
looked for with much anxiety, and the grounds of that de-
cision will certainly, at all events, be strictly scrutinized.
On the whole, a satisfactory settlement of this very impor-
tantwith
Exchequersom some
