DISQUALIFICATION OF THE HOP ASSISTANTS.

The decision of this case occupied a considerable portion
of time, and was listened to with interest.
Osborn Squire Snoulten claimed, as a freeman. to be re-
tained on the register. He had been objected to by the
Whig party, on the ground of his being a hop assistant.
The BARRISTER said he had maturely considered the
case, and expunged his name. _ _ _

Two other individuals were also erased for similar reasons.
The decision of this case will affect a nunierous body of
persons at the next registration.
Up to last night the number of objections decided amount-
ed to 110, of which the Reformers struck out 34, and the
Conservatives 27.

THE REV. VERE MONRO'S SUMMER RAMBLE
IN SYRIA, All who are either pious, learned, or
curious enough to feel an interest in the actual state of those
memorable localities which were the cradle of our religion,
and which have been successively immortalised by saints
and sinners, by minstrels, historians, poets, novelists, and
travellers, will feel an interest in Mr. Monro's amusing
work. We find him grave and learned in discussing ques-
tions of antiquarian interest relative to the most distin-
guished persons and places celebrated in biblical history ;
while Sir Francis Head himself could hardly be more
buoyant, frolicsome, and adventurous, when galloping up
and down pathless mountains and trackless deserts, or en-
countering the diversified perils and perplexities which beset
the wanderer in barbarous or semi-civilized regions."—

THE NEW POOR LAWS.—On Tuesday one of the
Poor Law Commissioners attended, and called a meeting
at Chertsey, for the purpose of forming an union of pa-
rishes, when the labourers, about 150 strong, forced their
way into the room, drove the Commissioner from the house,
and threw his papers into the street. Several of the fore-
most have been apprehended, and an investigation is going
on.—Reading Mercury.

A RELIEVING OFFICER.—On Sunday, Septem-
ber 20, about 10 o'clock in the morning, a child, about four
years of age, the son of Henry Clarke, residing at Great.
Marlow, fell down whilst at play and hurt -his-leg. The
father of the child is a stonema.ion's labourer, has a family;
of five-children uncler ten years of age, and his Vvifo' is on.
the point of being confined with a sixth child. He earns
12s. a week. The mother, perceiving the child to be seri-
ously hurt, though unconscious of the true nature of the in-
jury, and being unable to pay for surgical assistance, applied
to the parish surgeon for attendance : he being restricted
from attending except on receiving written orders from the
relievine, officer, referred the mother to Mr. Robert Turner,
who fills that office, and who resides in the town of Great
Marlow, the surgeon waiting her return to accompany her
to her child. But Mr. Turner refused to give the woman
an order unless she paid for it. The contract for medical
attendance on the poor at Marlow is 2s. 3d. each case ; the
relieving officer, however, demanded 3s. of the poor woman
for the order, which she not possessing returned to the
surgeon and communicated the result of her application to
him. From the woman's representation of the severe nature
of the case, he accompanied her to her child, when on exami-
nation he found the thigh-bone to be fractured. On the fol-
lowing (Monday) morning the poor woman again applied to
Mr. Turner for an order, stating her inability to pay the sur-
geon, and that her child's thigh-bone was broken. Mr. Tur- '
ner still refused the order unless she paid for it. She not hav-
ing the money, was obliged to decline it. In the course of
the day she borrowed 35., and on Tuesday morning took
them to Mr. Turners house, with the view of paying him
for the medical order, but he was from home. In the after-
noon of Tuesday she applied again, found Mr. Turner at
home, gave him the 35., and he gave her a written order for
the surgeon's attendance, and returned her threepence of her
money. The woman requested Mr. Turner to write on the
back of the order a receipt for the 2s. 9d. she had given
him, when he replied, " G—d d— it, am Ito sit here all
day writing ? I have not had my dinner yet." So the poor
woman left him. Thus, but for the gratuitous attendance
of the surgeon, the unfortunate child would have been left
to his fate, with a broken thigh-bone, from Sunday morn-
ing till Tuesday afternoon, and whilst the surgeon for at-
tendance on this case will receive only 2s. 3d., the relieving
officer takes from the poor labourer 2s. 9d. on behalf of the
parish ! The case has been reported to the Board of
Guardians, who have ordered Mr. Turner to return the
money to the pauper ; but such conduct on the part of the
relieving-officer ought not to go unexposed, and it is not a
solitary instance.—Morning Paper.

hyeof last
the week; the only purchase fOr their im i iata
on the mo3t 'confined s.mle, and as usual in dulLair
and there a shade lower, but no gejtejial redolf
prices can be stated. The estLniated iszNytAftes_ fetirci;teic
are 1,500 hhds. and trs. ; 655. (id. raid Tcr des,
and at the close of the Market there wz‘s mance
and a greater disposition to do business.
In Refined there is no business to report; the shippers do
not appear much at market, and the few sales are to the
grocers for the home consumption, and in very limited pa.rcels.
The Refiners this afternoon have rather taken alarm at the
dul: state of the trade, and the consequent accumulation of
the goods in the warehouses, and are inclined to take lower
prices-41s. for fine Crashed ; the general quotation 83s. for
the long, and 425. the short price ; all other goods also at ra-
ther lower prices.
Manamus.-There are no sales to report; two vessels, with
about 9,800 bags, the remnant of last season's crop, are re-
ported at the Custom-house.
EAST INDIA.-There has been several sales of Bengal and
Java Sugars,
_ the former are Is. to Is- 6d. lower, good white,
365., damp low to good white 325. to 355.; the brown Java also
sold rather lower, the other qualities former prices.
FOREIGN.-There continue to be considerable sales of yel-
low Havannah Sugar, 365. and 375.; no whites appear at mar-
ket. At public sale yellowish white Bahia, 382. 6d. to 395. 6d.,
grey, 345. Gd., being 2s. to 2s. 6d. higher.
This day 50 boxes white Havannah and 81 chests 42 bar-
rels Bahia were for the first time advertised this forenoon, and
sold at twelve o'clock ; the fine white Havannah were taken
in at 505., valued at 535. ; the Bahia low brown to low
greyish white part sold 255. Gd. to 335., about 2s. to 3s. lower.
MoLassas.-There are still inquiries after Molasses ; more
sales of good Antigua at 285., and of St. Vincent's about 275.
COFFEE.-There is little alteration in the prices of Coffee ;
the British Plantation have been offered in rather large par-
cels, chiefly Jamaica, with small lets of Dominica, Grenada,
and St. Lucia, which went off at very full prices. There has
been no change in East India, Ceylon 655. for good quality.
The late sales of Foreign are at former rates, 58s. for coloury
Brazil, and for St. Domingo ord. mixed dingy Ms. to 535.,
good ord. mixed 535. 6d. to 545. 6d., coloury 555. and 565. 6d.
By private contract, 2,000 bags Ceylon Coffee reported
sold at 625., which is 2s. lower ; 300 bags Samarang at 495.
6d. and 50s.

By public sale this day, 2,298 bap Brazil, ord. 525. 6d. a
535., partly sold, the quality was inferior, the prices fair market
rates ; 93 casks St. Domingo, from Bordeaux, good ord. pale,
545. a 545. 63., former rates ; 108 bales Mocha, 665. a 845.,
taken in ; 29 casks, 180 bags Cuba, unclean, 58s. a 655.,
taken in. The inferior qualities of British Plantation are ra-
ther higher.
TALLOW.—The Tallow market is very heavy, and the pri-
ces both on the spot and for forward delivery must be quoted
is. lower • the contracts for arrival lately are very limited,
and entirely on speculation ; the trade will not purchase at the
present prices, except in small parcels for immediate consump-
tion.

SlLK.—There is but little business doing in Silk, but the
prices are very firm.
WooL.—There is rather more business doing in the Wool
market, chiefly in the German descriptions at full prices. The
next public sales of Colonial Wool will take place early in
November. _ _

SPlCES.—Pimento has been sold in large parcels, about
1,300 bags, at rather higher prices; good quality 40., 41d.,
and 41d. Pepper without variation ; good quality held firmly
about sd. per lb. In other Spices there is little variation.
Rim—Rice, particularly the fine qualities, are held with
much firmness, the prices are rather higher ; fine Bengal
13s. 6d. a 14s.

SALTPETRE.—By public sale 3,788 bags sold at full market
prices, and in some instances 3d. to Gd. per cwt. higher, low
dingy 401 refraction 225. to 225. 6d., fair quality and refrac-
tion 24 to 7 lbs. 26s to 26. ' • British Refined in much demand,
31s. in barrels, 30s. 6d. in hhds.

TEA.—The sale to take place on the 13th October contains
about 60,000 packages, and the trade appears to be engrossed
so much in the inspection of them that the market in the
meantime is neglected, and the transactions too few to alter
our quotations.
Oms.—There have been no accounts received from the
Straits' fisheries; the Market is, in consequence, without any
alteration. The prices are nearly nominal.
INDIGO.—The Market keeps firm, in the face of the large
sales on the 20th inst. Above one half have been examined,
and there appears a larger proportion than usual of the good
consuming qualities, ranging from 4s. 6d. to ss. 3d. per lb.,
valued at July's sale prices.
COCOA —The late sales are about Is. per cwt. higher, fair
reddish Grenada 465. to 475. 6d., good 48s. to 495. ; fine this
day 525. 6d. to 575.
Rum, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum market has
been exceedingly heavy, on account of the accumulation of
the stock, and ntnre arrivals, which are not yet landed ; the
offers arc id. to Id. per gallon lower, and fine qualities are
offered at a greater reduction, but there is little disposition
to do business. Brandy is more enquired after. Geneva
without alteration.

Currants sold at 685.: 30 butts 29 caroteels Patras, 68s. to

immediately expected. Three small cargoes of new Musca-
tells, Blooms, and Lexia Raisins have also arrived, and on
delivery at quoted prices.
COTTON.—The Cotton market is again dull; the purchases
this week• little exceed 500 bags. The sales are 260 Bengal,
ord. 63-d., good and fair 7d. ; 300 Surat, ord. 6d., good 71d. ;
30 Bowed, good fair 100.

PRICE OF BREAD. •
The highest price of Brcad in the Metropolis is 71 for the 41b. Lad.
There are others who sell from a halfpenny to three half-pence below
that rate.
