The arrival of the Cornwallis and Egyptian have not
as yet created any appearance of plenty in the market. A
large supply of butter has been landed, bat it maintains an
unusual high rate. It is said that all the flour has been
purchased by the Government ; if so we shall be in a bad
way. We understand that the bakery is likely to stop work
on Monday for want of material, and we fear we must
look for further arrivals before the market will assume an
aspect favourable for the settler.

The accounts we continue to receive from
the country confim the most sanguine expecta-
tions of an abundant harvest ; but nevertheless,
such is the amount of our population, compared
with the quantity of land in cultivation, that the
speculators in corn continue their importa-
tions. It is true that they do not appear, by
the returns we give in another part of our paper,
to be above one-fourth of what they were this
time last year, but still that is an enormous quan-
tity, and, being in a season of abundance, suffi-
ciently shows what we may expect to take place
in a season of scarcity. The CHANCELLOR of
the EICHEQUER will be some 100,0001. the
better for it.

We this day publish extracts from the docu-
ments in the case of SOMERVILLE, presented
to Parliament by Sir J. CAM HOBHOUSE.
These extracts, and we have read them at-
tentively, by no means improve the case as re-
spects Major WYNDHAM, but leave it just pre-
cisely where it was—as unsatisfactory as ever.
