No one appeared to wish to prosecute. The evidence

The JUDGE said tbat he did not think,
law, that there was any assault, and seemed confi-
dently to expect a ready acquittal.
The jury, however, alinost iMMediately returned e.
verdict of Guilty of the felony.
The JUDGE, somewhat astonished, asked them if they knew what that meant ?
The- foreman emphatically and abruptly answered,
" We mean what we have said."

PACKET-SHIP
an account of the loss of his vessel, and the rapacity
of the wreckers on the coast of Wexford :—..
The following
"It has become letter, from Captain Shipley, gives
.. Sabre, Gorey, April 3.
my melancholy duty to inform you of
the total loss of the ship John B. Skiddy on Glascar-
rick-beach (county of Wexford) on the night of the Ist
of April, at a quarter past eleven,
being very thick, and
ruining at the tune, and having mistaken the light on
nine o'clock the
the ship was drited very materially
Arklow-hank for Tusher. I had seen Bardsey Island at
I judged would carry mo about midway between the
Smales and Tusher, but , by some unaccountable means,
same morning, and steered a course that
out of her course
by the tides. I am happy to infirm you that the pas-
sengers and crew were landed in safety, also the greater
part of the baggage in good order, and we shall probably
save the remainder in a damaged condition. I have also
sand the sails, spars, and part of the stores. The ship
lies within 200 yards of the beach, bilged and very
quiet, the water over the lower deck. If the weather
should keep moderate, some part of the cargo may be
saved, in a damaged state. I have'abaadoned the ship
to Lloyd's agent, who has men now employed unbending
sail', &c. I think the natives of this part of the coun-
try the most abandoned set of villains it has ever been
my misfortune to fall in with; they commenced robbing
and plundering the moment they came on board, and as
a boatload of luggage or stores landed, they were imme-
diately seized on by the lawless villians, in defiance of the
coast guard and police."

mrs. King—lndeed you did say so, and you always
wished that your name should be mentioned as seldom
as possible—a circumstance which I thought sus-
picious.

DREADFUL STEAMBOAT DIRASTER.—Tbe AZabama,
Montgomery journal, has a full account of the dreadful acci-
dent to the steamer Orville St. John. She was burnt about
four miles below Montgomery. It is supposed that there were
120 persona on board, many of whom leaped into the river
and were drowned, others perished in the flames, and others
were crushed by the guards of the boat falling. The ladies
threw themselves into the river, and most of those on board
were burnt. Mrs. Hall, with her daughter in her arms. was
drowned. The clerk of the boat (Mr. blear), in attempting
to save her was nearly drowned. The only article on board
that was saved was the trunk of Colonel-Preston. There
were a number of returned Californians on board, who lost
their all. Colonel Rodman Price, of the United States navy,
agent from California, lost his baggage, with which were
250,000 dollars belonging to the Government. Mr. Maul, a
returned Californian, was very severely injured. F. 11.
Brooks, of Mobile, rumoured to have been lost, was saved.
In addition to the money lost by Mr. Price, there were 10,000
dollars belonging to. Mr. Knowland, and a large sum by Mr.
Schmidt. A considerable portion of the sum in charge of
Mr. Price was gold dust in the safe, and may be recovered.
The register of passengers was lost. The clerk of the boat
has furnished a list of the names as far as ascertained. Hugh
Hughes, mate; Peter, steward; Esther, the chambermaid.
The second cook and eight negroes ware saved, also all the
crew, with the exception of the second mate. Another ac-
count supposes there were fifty lives lost and 60,000 dollars.
Many persons are still missing.—New York Courier.
HOP INTELLIGENCE.-- WORCESTER, APRIL 3.
From a return made by order of the House of Commons of
the number of acres of hop ground in cultivation last year
in Great Britain, we find there has been a considerable re•
ciuction, the quantity of land now in plant being 42,791
acres, or about 6,000 less than the return of the previous
year. This is an important fact for the trade, and will pro-
bably have an immediate effect on the market. Several
sales were made on Saturday at improved rates.— Worcester
Journal.

VERY PoETICAL—VERY. I—lnsects generally must
lead a truly jovial life. Think what it must be to lodge in a
lily. Imagine a palace of ivory or pearl, with pillars of
silver and capitals of gold, all exhaling such a perfume as
never arose from human censer. Fancy, again, the fun of
tucking yourselves up hr the night in the folds of a rose,
rocked to sleep '.)y the gentle sighs of summer air, nothing to
do when you awake but to wash yourself in a dew-drop, and
fall to and eat your bed-clothes!

Letters f:oin Madrid of the 30th ult. speak of an
in:friendly feeliog. between the Papal Nuncio and the
Spanish Government, relative to religious communi-
ies and ecclesiastical tribunals. It was believed
that Government had revoked the permission for the
enrolment of the Legion for the service of the Pope.
MADRID BOLSA, MARCH 30.--The Three per
Cents. were done at 291 for paper; the Four per
Cents. at 12/; the Five per Cents., at 12; the Debt
without Interest at 3,1- ; and the Coupons at 7.

SWITZERLAND.
We learn from Berne, Ist inst., that the Federal
Council has ordered the expulsion from Switzerland
of the members of the associations of German work-
men established at Geneva, Lausanne, Vevey, La
Uhaux de Fonds, Locle, Fleurier, Friburg, Bale,
Zurich, Berne, Porrentruy, St. Imier, Berthond,
Thoune, Wintertouer, and Schaffhausen, and has
ordered that those of Aarau, Lucerne, Glaris, Coire,
and llerisan shall be provisionally placed under the
surveillance of the police.

GERMANY.
At CArlsiuhP, on the 30th ult., a fight took place
between some Prussian and Baden soldiers, in conse-
quence of an altercation about politics. Three
erussiaci hussars and two Baden artillerymen were
killed, and several on both sides were wounded.
A letter from Erfurt of the 31st ult. states that the
committees on the constitution of the two Chambers
7' were proceeding with the revision of the fundamental
rights, and were closely following the principles of the
Prussian constitution.
Some sensation has been caused in Germany by the
:`,l) publication of an article in the Augsburg Gazette,
,% endeavouring to show that Prussia, both for her own
sake and for that of Germany, should adhere to the
treaty of Munich, and that, in return, an increase of
34 territory might be awarded to her by the suppression
of several of the little states.

ITALY.
The Costituzionale of Florence states that the Tus-
N,
can Government has consented to satisfy the demands
of England. On the other hand we read the follow-
.
m gin the Monitore Toscano :—" The Tuscan jour-
-4 nals have repeatedly made the affair relating to an
•
Indemnity which the Government of her Britannic
Majesty claims of our Government, the subject of
discussion in their columns. We are authorised to
declare that the information contained in their articles
are mostly incorrect, and that, while the negotiations
Are pending, it is not considered expedient to give
more explicit explanations."
The Riforma of Lucca states from Leghorn, 28th
ult., that it is believed the state of seige will soon be
raised in that city. The Count of Trapani, betrothed
to the daughter of the Grand Duke of Tuscany, was
ice. expected at Leghorn on the 2d from Naples.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.
(From the London IVew Price Current, April 5.)
SUEIAR.-To-day on the part of refiners or grocers
little desire was evinced to do business in West India
71 Sugar, and in some cases the rates acceded to are rather
under those current previously for brown and interior
sorts. At auction 211 hhdB 31 tree crystalized were
sold at easier rates; greyish at 38s to 45s 6d, brown 35s
to 375, low 32s to 335. The purchases to-day were 412,
making for the week 1,260 hhds, &c.
REFINED.-Today Itefiue.l Sugar was less in demand
- for home trade purposes; still, brown Lumps were not
iu to be obtained under 48s 6tl per cwt. The market for
. bonded Crushed Sugar is still dull, with free sellers at
; former terms.
34 MAURITIUS.--This afternoon former rates were gene-
rally supported for the better sorts of Mauritius Sugar,
- still a further fall of 6d per cwt took place for inferior
and brown. At public sale 3,407 bags were, however,
_ nearly all sold; good mid and good yellow went at 37s
to 38s 6d, mid 36s to 36s 6d, low 34s to 355, good to fine
brown 38s to 345, inferior 30s to 325, and very ord 27s
to 27s 6d per cwt.
EAST INDIA. -This afternoon the public sales of 3,250
bags Bengal Sugar proceeded quietly at about former
rates, but for soft yellow a redaction of is per cwt took
elate : the chief part sold-fine white Benares at 40s to
40e 6d, mid to good 37s 6d to 3es 6d, strong white 45e 6d
'o 475, low and mid soft yellow 31s 6d to 348, and good
34s 6d to 36F. Of Madras 1,000 bags went at low ra'es;
brown, mid and good at 27s 6d to 28s, and ord to mid
yellow 29s 6d to 30s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.-Holders of parcels in bond appear reluc-
tant to accept lower rates, and supply the market
sparingly; still, the export orders executed by private
reaty have been of little moment, and only small pur-
chases continue to be made for refining under bond. At
auction 400 boxes white Havannah were offered, damaged
cold at from 26s to 27s 6d, sound taken in at 28s 6d to
31s 6d, which were considered lower prices. Duty paid
sorts have been operated in with caution for all purposes,
although sellers are ready to accept previous moderate
rates by private treaty, and there is a fair supply. At
public sale yesterday 1,604 chests of Havannah were sold
at prices generally on a par with those current previ-
lusty; mid to good yellow realised 38s 6d to 41s, low
37s to 38s, and mid to fine brown 36s to 36s 6d per cwt.
MOLASSES.-There is a larger stock than last year,
still deliveries exceed those of that time, and in prices
little difference is apparent. The market is quiet for
West India, and the value is from 14s to 17s for low to
ine quality. East India met with little attention, and is
ally worth 138 Gd to 14s, still these terms are not ob-
tainable for large parcels. A fall in the value of Honey
is apparent.
TEA.-There are free sellers of Congott at previous
terms, yet town and country dealers are not disposed to
t more ,into stock, and only a limited business has
oeen done ; low to good ord at 9d to 9id; medium kind,
10d to is 2d ; and better sort, Is 20 to Is 9d.
['here are several export buyers of ord rather under
present rates. Scented and Pekoe Tea met with little
attention, and can be obtained at rather lower ratan. The
common and mid sorts of Green are offered rather under
former rates, yet buyers have made purchases with can-
ion. For other kinds the market has a dull aspect, and
prices are drooping. There is a probability that black
And green Tea will be cheaper.
CoCOA.-In Foreign operations have been upon a
small scale by private treaty, prices are drooping, and
rule at 28s to, 29s per cwt. None has been offered
st public sale, still there is a large stock. British
Plantation continues to be purchased with caution, and
if sales were pressed a further decline in the value would
be the result.
COPPEE.-To-day there was much business in the
Coffee market, and the limited business concluded by
private treaty is at a further reduction. The value of
Native Ceylon is 51s to 52s for good ordinary. At auc-
tion 52 casks Plantation went at prices nearly as low as
they were three weeks back; middling sold at 57s to 583,
and fine fine ord at 55s 6d to 56s per cwt. At a late
ass
hour this afternoon more desire was evinced to operate
!`" in Native Ceylon at the decline noticed previously, and
i about 5,000 bags were sold.
.134 RICE.-To-day a public sale of 622 bags and 367 pkts
of Bengal Rice went at steady rates; mid white at 9s to
t 9s 6d, and damaged 5s 6d to 7a 6d per cwt. Of Sago
650 bags were taken in at 20s 6d to 22s for pearl, these
are barely former rates. 58 pkgs Bermuda Arrowroot
6d at is 6d to is 7d, and 10 bags Tapioca at 6id per lb.
)SPICES.-To-day at auction 600 boxes of Cassia Lig-
s
las . nea were taken in at about late rates; pile 1 at 107 s,
pile 2 at 105 s, pile 3 at 104 s, mouldy at 102 s €d, and
• broken ends at 1004 Of "Nutmegs 8 casks Dutch limed
• were taken in at 3s for bold, and small at is 10d per lb.
SPIRITS.-There is a firmness on the part of holders
los of Jamaica Rum. The value of 20 to 29 per cent. over
' proof is 2s 3d to 2s Bd, 30 to 36 over 2s 9d to 3s 6d,
superior 3s 7d to 3s 9d, and very fine 3s 10.1 to 4s 3d per
gallon. There are several buyers rather under these
rates. Demerara is not 'much wanted, and holders
appear disposed to sell 30 to 38 per cent over proof
at from 2s 2d to 2s 7d. For Leeward is, and the rat !s
asked are Is 4kd to is 5d proof, but only small orders
have been executed; there is not a better supply.. East
India cannot be obtained under is 4d, still the de-
mand continues limited, and few parcels are on
offer.' In Brandy the amount of business con-
cluded has been small during the week, and a desire
is evinced to sell Cognac best brands of the
vintage of 1849 at 4s 5d to 4s 7d, 1848 ditto 4s ed to
4s Bd, and inferior sorts 2s 9,1 to 4s 4d per gallon.
The tendency of prices appears to be downwards, as
stocks continue to accumulate, and deliveries are
much less than a few months past. Geneva is not
much wanted; sellers are willing to accept is 7d to Is 8d
for ord export sort, and 2s 3d to 3s 3d for good to fine
home trade kind. There are free sellers of British Corn
Spirits at former rates of 9s 5d to 9s 6d per gallon nett
cash, and only a moderate trade has been done. In the
value of Gin no variation is apparent.
SALTPETRE.-To-day the market for Saltpetre was in
a dull state, and a small part only of 1,159 bags Cal-
cutta at auction found buyers at easier rates, middling
quality 6i to 81. per cent refraction at 25s 6d to 26s 6d,
good 5 to 51. ditto 27s per cwt.
Itadoo.-Purchases to a fair extent have been made
in Easi India this week by shippers and home dealers,
whilst the rates paid are fully equal to last sale, and in
some cases rather above. The market has a firm ap-
pearance for all sorts. Spanish is in brisker demand at
late terms.
COCHINEAL.-There has not been much desire to ope-
rate, and the market has been well supplied. At the
public sales to-day of 200 bags prices declined 2d for
blacks, and Id for silvers, but the chief part sold;
Honduras silvers went at from 3s 8d to 45 4d, Mexican
3s 8d to 3s 9d, blacks 3s 7d to 4s Id, and Lima at 3s 6d
to 4s 4d per lb.

Oms.—Operations in Rapeseed Oil have been to
a large extent during the week, • and prices are
now firm; British Refined 40s, brown 38s 6d to
395; Foreign Refined 40s 6d to 41s, and brown
39s to 39s 6d per cwt. Cocoa Nut mot with
little attention from shippers and home dealers,
Ceylon of good and fine quality is to be obtained
at 31s to 335, and Cochin at 321 to 345. These mode-
rate rates are expected to cause an improved demand.
Of Palm buyers operate with caution, fine is to be
obtained at 31s to 31s 6d, still there is a fair con-
sumption. Holders of Olive appear not dis-
posed to make any further concession in the
value, and require 47/ to 481 for Gallipoli and
Spanish 441. 10s. to 451. lOs for Barbary, Levant, and
Portugal ; still there is no improvement in the home or
export demand, but consumption is better than a
few weeks back. Only limited orders hare been
executed for Linseed Oil for shipping, and home
dealers operat,d with caution ; larger parcels
of Oil are on offer, and a desire is evinced
to sell at 32s 6d to 32s 9d per cwt. Only limited con-
