THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 23, 1844.

which the Colonial-office has long been notorious, and
from which our transmarine possessions have so deeply
suffered. That office dreads discussion ;it will do any-
thing, however mean or monstrous, to avoid debate. Let
us then cast a glance at the state in which Lord Stanley,
on his departure from the House of Commons, leaves the
colonies."

Of " the dodge" (to borrow our Contemporary's
polite phraseology) we have already spoken ; but
there is something curious in the admissions of the
paragraph, that the Colonial-office has long been
notorious for " super-sublety " for " the dread of
discussion," and for doing anything mean or mon-
strous in order to avoid debate. Long notoriety, in
such matters, must extend beyond three or four
years. What, says Bacon, is the hour-glass of one
man's life in the age of a nation ? The long notoriety
of the mismanagement of a great public department
must therefore reach to some considerable period, cer-
tainly to a period sufficiently long to embrace the
whole of the fourteen years since 1830, though within
that period the eminently energetic Lord Glenelg, as
well as Lords Normanby and J. Russell held the
colonial seals—of course " dreaded discussion, and
did mean and monstrous things." It surely
is not kind of the Whig journalist to rip up these
offences of its old friends, already suffering enough of
public contempt in their dreary unplaced position.
As if, however, maliciously resolved to fix its charges
against the Colonial-office upon the Whig holders of
that office, the Whig journal details them all in its
" glance"—a glance prismatically split into 16 heads,
each head presenting some colonial difficulty, and each
difficulty that is not simply ridiculous, or obviously
unfounded, being the effect of Whig mismanagement.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
(YESTERDAY.)
MANSION-HOUSE.
William Fitzp,.eorge, a stoker on board the Earl of
Liverpool steam-vessel, trading to and from Ostend,
was brought before the Lord Mayor and Sir John
Pirie, charged, upon an information, with having
been found in that vessel in possession of a quantity
of tobacco, on which the duty had not been paid.
Coleby Atkinson Davis, the Custom-house officer,
stated that between five and seven o'clock on Thurs •
day morning he went on board the Earl of Liverpool,
which lay off Tower-stairs. The prisoner, who was
not at that time on board, arrived soon afterwards,
and witness, upon searching his berth, found under the
flooring under the bed about 7lbs. of tobacco, and
subsequently he found 161bs. of tobacco in the engine-
room. In the forecastle he found, on the same day,
161bs. of tobacco, and in the after-cabin 101bs. of
cigars.
The prisoner was convicted in the penalty of 1001.
William Holls, also a stoker on board the Earl of
Liverpool, was charged under an information charg-
ing him with a similar offence.
The prisoner said that he was not guilty to the ex-
tent attributed, and that he thought he was justified
in having in his possession a certain quantity of the
article.
Sir Jowl Pints—We are imperatively called upon
to check this practice, which now knows no bounds.
The prisoner was fined 1001.
Henry Hailden, steward of the after-cabin, was
charged with having been concerned in the smuggling
of tobacco.
Mr. Davis having repeated his former evidence, un-
derwent a cross-examination by Mr. Pickett, of the
house of E. B. Robinson, Savage-gardens, but the
cross-examination had the effect of more strongly
exhibiting the guilt:of the prisoner. The witness
stated that the chief steward, who was evidently igno-
rant of the stowage of contraband goods in the vessel,
said to the prisoner, " What a fool you must be to
do such a thing ;" to which the prisoner replied that
he had deposited some of the tobacco in the berth
himself, and that he was sorry for it.
The witness, in answer to a question from Mr.
Pickett, who endeavoured to shuffle the offence from
the shoulders of his client to those of the chief mate,
said that the Custom-house officers were in the habit
of endeavouring with all their might to discriminate
between the innocent and the guilty, and that they
entirely exonerated the chief mate in the case.
Mr. Pickett—ls not a certain quantity of tobacco
allowed to each person on board ?
Mr. Davis—No. The captain is allowed the power
to deal out a certain quantity of tobacco to his men,
but they have no privilege at all of the kind. We are
well aware who are the guilty parties.
Mr. Pickett then begged that the Magistrate would
inflicta lenient penalty upon his client, in considera-
tion of the large family the poor man had.
The LORD MAYOR said the Board of Commis-
sioners had the power to alleviate the punishment
which the Magistrates could not help pronouncing in
such a case upon such convincing testimony.
The prisoner was then convicted in the penalty of
1001.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Nov. 22.)
SUGAR.-To-day the market presented a quiet ap-
pearence for West India Sugar; but the limited business
transacted by private contract was at former rates;
there is, however, more desire on the part of merchants
to sell the inferior sorts. A public sale of 272 hhds
48 trcs and 125 barrels St. Lucia went off with hea-
viness, and a part only sold at rather lower rates for
brown and common yellow, but the better sorts sup-
ported former rates, good yellow fetched 61s, good mid
595, mid 56s to 575, low 55s to 55s 6d, good brown 54s
to 54s 6d, mid 53s 6d, and drainage damaged 54s to 57s
per cwt. The total purchases for the week are 1,600
hhds and trcs.
REFINED.-To-day Refined Sugar was in excellent re-
quest by the home trade, and prices ruled firm: standard
Lumps at 74s 6d, and brown 72s 6d per cwt. Bonded
Crushed Sugar is selling for forward delivery at 29s 6d
to 29s 9d, and some parties will not sell under 30s
per cwt.
MAURITIUS.-This afternoon at public sale 5,811 bags
232 casks of the new crop were brought forward, the
principal part consisted of good mid, and good bright
yellow descriptions ; nearly the whole found purchasers
at fair market rates ; but there was a want of spirit in
biddings, fine yellow went at 64s to 67s 6d, good 60s to
635, good mid 57s 6d to 59s 6d, mid 54s to 56s 6d, low
52s to 53s 6d, good brown 48s, mid 455, low 425, very
low 40s, six bags of the old crop were sold at 49s 6d per
cwt. for brown.
EAST INDIA.-This afternoon 687 baskets of Java
were sold at full rates ; fine grey at 21s 6d to 22s 6d,
good yellow 20s 6d to 21s, fine 21s 6d to 225, mid 19s to
20s, white 22s to 23s 6d, washed 17s 6d to 21s. Ben-
gal Sugar met with less attention, and the parcels
offered at public sale amounting to 2,810 bags were only
partly sold, but former rates were sustained ; middling
yellow fetched 55s to 57s 6d, low 53s to 54s 6d, damp
and washed 53s 6d to 565, middling sound white 63s 6d,
low 61s, and damp brown 46s to 48s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.-The market has still a firm appearance for
all descriptions of Foreign Sugar, and a further diminu-
tion has taken place in the stock of all kinds. This
afternoon 700 baskets of Java Sugar were sold privately
at 18s for brown, and 21s 6d for yellow, for refining
under bond.
MoLassEs.-Previous rates are sustained for West
India, and the demand has been very good this week-
Antigua has been selling at 245, and Tobago 21s per
cwt. The deliveries are still exceeding the arrivals, and
there is not a large quantity offering for sale in the
market. East India Molasses are not much in request
at present, 14s to 17s. per cwt is the value of Bengal.
COFFEE.-This afternoon the public sales of Coffee
comprised 3,089 bags East India, 904 bags Ceylon, and
92 casks 84 bags West India; for the East India the
demand was limited, and nearly the whole was taken in
at more than it was worth, viz.-Sumatra low mixed with
blacks at 225, Batavia good ord mixed bulked 26s to
to 28s 6d, ord 265, but a small part sold at 19s 6d to 24s
for low much mixed, sea damaged 20s to 245, being how-
ever cheaper, Singapore Java good ord pale was taken in
at 365, ord 30s, a few lots of damaged sold at 32s for Ist, 28s
to 28s 6d for 2d, 26s for 3d class, and 28s for damaged
in the country ; of the Ceylon the chief part was sold at
full market rates, but Plantation sorts went is to 2s
cheaper-good ord pale sold at 555, flue fine ord coloury
at 66s to 675, fine ord 63s to 645, triage 28s 6d to 46s ;
the West India consisted of small lots, and was in second
hands, it sold at full rates-fine ord Jamaica at 52s to
545, and good ord 49s to 51s per cwt. The value of good
ord Ceylon is 54s ; but there was not much business
transacted.
TEA.-The market has a firm appearance for all de-
scriptions of Tea. For Green Tea prices are still going
up, and for Black they have ruled firm. Congou has
been in good demand by private contract, and former
rates are fully supported-sales of common have been
made at 101 d to 10,1 d, and good common lid to 1 lid
per lb cash. Pouchong has met with increased attention.
Scented Orange Pekce is in good demand at 3s 31d
for cash, and at 3s 4d to 3s 5d with prompts.
There has been an increased desire shown to pur-

to 2s 6d per lb.
RUM, BRANDY, AND lIOLLANDS.-Holders of Leeward
Island Rum manifest firmness, and supply the market
sparingly, but there has been but little business trans-
acted ; 2s 4d to 2s 5d per gallon is the value of proof.
Jamaica has been taken sparingly by shippers and the
home trade, but merchants refuse to lower their prices,
and only a small quantity is offering for sale ; indeed the
bulk of the stock is in second hands-we quote 30 to 32
per cent over, 35 8d to 3s 11 d; 33 to 35 over, 4s to 4s 4d;
superior 4s 6d to ss, very superior 5s 6d to 5s 2d per gall.
There is a scarcity of fine. For Demerara, 3s 3d to 3s 7d
is the value of 32 to 39 per cent. overproof. Calcutta
Rum at 2s 2d to 2s 3d per gallon proof with certificate.
For Brandy, prices rule firm for all descriptions-Cognac,
best brands of the vintage of 1838, hhds 5s 2d, puns 5s ;

dling bold, and 13s 6d to 16s for damaged, being cheaper.
COCOA.—British Plantation is much wanted, and full
rates are offered, bit at present little is to be had by
private contract, and none has been offered at public
sale ; the market will, however, be better supplied
shortly, there having been an arrival of 800 pkgs of
Trinidad. There is a good and increasing consumption
going on. There are several buyers of Foreign, but
there is only a small quantity in first hands, and prices
rule firm.

Tapioca were mostly taken in at 7d per lb.
