RUSSIA.

The St. Petersburgh Gazette of the Ist publishes
the following ukase, suppressing the customs' line
between Poland and Russia :

"In our constant solicitude for the development of
commerce and industry, we have judged it advisable, in
order to facilitate as much our own commercial relations
with the foreigner as those of between cur faithful sub-
jects of the empire of Russia and the kingdom of Poland,
to publish for both a general tariff of customs' duties,
and at the same time to abolish the intermediate customs'
line, which has hitherto existed between the empire of
Russia and the kingdom of Poland,

"We have consequently given our approval to the
general tariff drawn np by the kingdom of Poland, and
the governor of the Caucasian provinces, and reviewed
by the council of the empire and the committee of the
Caucasus, and we ordain, while transmitting this tariff
to the executive senate:

" 1. That this tariff shall come into operation in the
empire, as well as in the kingdom of Poland, on and
after the Ist (13th) of January, 1851.
•' 2. The simultaneous abolition of the intermediate
customs' line existing between the empire and the king-
dom, and the introduction into the latter of the Russian
customs' administration.

" 3. The application
.of these new duties to such
merchandise as shall, on the Ist (13th) of January,
remain in the warehouses of Russia or Poland, and shall
not have yet paid tax, but to apply to such merchandise
the old duties, if those of the now tariff are no; high
enough.
" The executive senate will take the measures neces-
sary for the carrying out of this ordinance."

to a very limited extent. In other descriptions of
goods there is an increase of firmness, though the ag-
gregate business of the day is only of moderate ex-
tent. The Greeks, having again very unfavourable
accounts from Constantinople, are still further di-
minishing their purchases, small as they have been of
late. For the Brazilian and some other markets
there are what may be called fair orders in course of
execution.

ROCHDALE, MONDAY.—There has been a good de-
mand for kerseys and coarse goods, but the flannel
market has been quiet, and less business has been
doing. It wool there has been little change, either
is price or demand, and the manufacturers continue
to purchase for immediate use only.
MACCLESFIELD, TUESDAY.—We have no alteration
to report of the state of the manufacturing department
of the silk trade—most of the houses are stopping
production as far as practicable, with a view to pre-
paration for the spring trade. In thrown silk, there
has not been much doing this week, in consequence
of purchaser.; waiting the result of the public sales of
raw silk, which take place to-morrow (Wednesday).
The dyers ara said to be slack of work.
HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDIY.—We have not much
change to report in our market to-day ; it continues
much the same as last week. Stocks are a little on the
increase. Checks of large pattern, and low goods
generally, continue to have the best demand. In
another week or two we expqct to be pretty active
in our market, when it advances more into the season.

HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—The demand for laSting3 is
languid ; but for fancy goods there is increased in-
quiry, with a prospect of further improvement. The
spinners are all fully employed ; but the export houses
are still keeping back their orders in the expectation,
whether well or ill-founded remains to be seen, that
they will be able to purchase on better terms ; but the
spinners are reluctant to give way to any extent, as
wool is firmer. Considerable quantities of wool have
been changing hands, and the quotations may be noted
a shade higher.
LEEDS, TUESDAY.—There have been dull markets
at the Cloth Halls, both to-day and on Saturday ; but,
taking into consideration the season of the year, a
fair average business continues to be done. Prices
keep firm, and stocks of heavy winter goods are very
low in the makers' hands. There have been a good
many buyers in the town, and some business has
been done in the warehouses.
London, England, 1850-10-24

GERMANY.

Advices from Cassel to the 20th state that no
change has taken place in the affairs of Electoral
Hesse.

The Prussian Parliament is to be convoked on the
12:h November.

The Ministerial crisis in Hanover has for the
present passed over. An understanding has taken
place between the KING and his Ministers respecting
the questions of internal policy. The KING has been
ir:duced to sanction the laws of orgsniz Ition as voted
by the Estates. But no understanding has been come
to in questions of foreign policy, and another crisis
is likely to come of it in th 3 course of next month.
The Emperor of AUSTRIA is to leave Vienna on the
24tb, for Warsaw, where he will meet the Emperor of
ItIJaSIA.

The report of a note from Prince SCIIWARTZEN.•
lIERG to the Berlin Cabinet, demanding the recall of
the Prussian troops from Hamburgh, is contradicted
on good authority.

DENMARK AND TILE DUCHIES.
Toe Weser Zeitung has letters from Altona of
the 20:h ins►., stating that the Schleswig-Holstein
outposts have again advanced to the turnpike be-
tween Seeth and Friederichstadt. The Gefion
frigate has been towed into the inner harbour of
Eckenforde, end Denmark has consented to the re-
moval of that vessel. We learn from the Copen-
hagen papers that the Danish army is preparing for
a winter campaign.
General WILLISEN has published an official list
of the loss of the Schleswig-Holstein army before
Friederichstadt. From this account it appears that
there have been killed-12 officers, 10 non-commis-
sioned officers, and 51 privates ; wounded-23
officers, 43 non-commissioned officers, and 406
privates; missing—.3 officers, 9 non-commissioned
officers, and 141 privates. The 6:h and 11th
battalions suffered the most, and their loss is
respectively named at 211, and 149 killed, wounded,
and missing. The Ist Jsger Corps lost 77, and the
15J) battalion of infantry 64 in all. The sligtit,y
wounded, who remained viith their regiments, are not
mentioned amot g the list of casualties. In addition
to the number of officers two surgeons are mentioned.
Toe result has been th,st 700 officers and men ha%e
been placed hors du combat.

THE LIVERPO,,L PLATE ROBBERIES —ADMISSION
Or SIEIZELI. TO BAH..—This morning the prisoner Thomas
Sirrell was brought up fr,m Liverp 01, and taken before Mr.
Justice Talfourd, at the Learncd Judge's private residence,
where, having entered into the recognizances required by
Lord Chief Justice Jervis for his surrender at the Liverpool
Winter Assizes, he was discharged from custody.
DESTRUCTION OF A COTTON FACTORY.—On Tues-
day afternoon the cotton factory cf Messrs. Allen Houghton
and Brother, at Warrington, was completely- destroyed by
lire. The fire burst out shortly after one o'clock, in the
second story, after the hands had left for dinner, and in less
than an hour the factory, which was six stories high, was
in ruins. It is said that several lives were lost.

THE HAGUE, OCT. '3l.—The Stoats Courant of
this day publishes the address of the Second Chamber
of the States General in reply to the speech from the
Throne at the opening of the present session. It was
presented by a deputation on Saturday last. His
Majesty replied as follows :
" The sentiments which this address expresses
are highly prized by me. So desirable an under-
standing between the Government and the repre-
sentatives of the people promises a happy accom-
plishment of the important task which devolves
upon both. You affurd the well-grounded hope
that the interests of the fatherland will be powerfully
advanced by your unanimous co-operation."
From a report presented to the King by the Mi-
nister of Marine, on the colonies, it appears that there
are now, in the Island of Java, 434,093 indigent
familis, who are exclusively occupied in the cultiva-
tion of coffee ; 165,092 in that of sugar ; and 181,329
in that of indigo ; making a total of 786,514 families.
Allowing only four labourers to each family, and in
most families there are more, we find that the number
of labourers is at 3,146,054—a cipher which may
give-us some ilea of the great extent of the cultiva-
tion of these three products in the Island of Java.—

LAMBE7'H.

George Harwood, alias Go'e, alias Froggy, a des-
perate-looking ruffian, and notorious burglar and
thief, was brought up for filial examinitiun upon
three separate charges; the first with being concerned
with others in drugging and robbint James Dicken-
son of four sovereigns and about 2/. in silver; the
second, with stealing a firkin of butter, the property
of William Johnson ; and the third, with escaping
from the Walworth station-house.

In support of the first charge, Mr. Dickenson, a
boot and shoemaker, residing at No. 4, High-street,
Peckham, deposed that on the evening of that day
twelvemonth he was in a public-house in White-
chapel, reading a newspaper about the Mannings,
when the prisoner and another man got into conver-
sation with him, and pressed him to ttike some gin
with them. Ile foolishly did so, and immediately
after became so stupifitd as to lose all recollection of
what became of him until the following morning,
when he found himself at the police-station in Leman-
street, Whitechapel. When he entered the public-
house he was quite sober, and had in his possession
four sovereigns and about two pounds in silver in his
pocket, and this, as well as a blue silk pocket-hand.
kerchief, he was robbed of.
Two witnesses, to whom the prisoner was well
known, deposed to having seen him and a man named
Norris leading the prosecutor, who appeared as if in a
state of extreme intoxication, along Brick-lane,
Whitechapel, on the evening of the 23d of October,
1849. They took him into one of the bye-streets,
and there Norris rifled his pockets while the prisoner
held up his arms. Both then made their escape, but
Norris was subsequently apprehended, tried, and con-
victed of the charge, but the prisoner managed to
keep out of the way until about a week since,
when he was apprehended on suspicion of com-
mitting a burglary in Short's gardens, Drury-
lane, and upon being discharged from Bow-street
was retaken by Sergeant Quinnear upon the present
charges.
Police-sergeant James M'lntosh H 9 deposed to
having found the prosecutor about nine o'clock in the
evening of that day twelvemonth in Thrall-street,
Whitechapel, in a state of apparent intoxication, and
removed him to the station-house. Norris, the priso-
ner's companion, had been tried at the Middlesex Sea-
-dons on the charge, convicted, and sentenced to one
[ year's imprisonment.
In the second charge, of stealing the firkin of
butter, the prisoner was distinctly sworn to as" being
[me of the two men who took the property from the
loor of the prosecutor on the evening of the 221 of
March last, and carried it away. Two days after he
was taken into custody by Sergeant Quinnear, who
[ removed him to Lock's-fielils station-house, but h.,.
managed to get away from there, and has been at
large until he was apprehended as above stated.
The prisoner cross-examined the different wit-
nesses with a tact and shrewdness that would have
lone credit to the most practiced Old Bailey barrister,
' hut the evidence was so conclusive as to Mlle his
ingenuity to shake it; and he was fully committed
or trial.

LAMBETH.

George Harwood, alias Co?e, alias Froggy, a des-
perate-looking ruffian, and notorious burglar and
thief, was brought up for final examination upon
three separate charges ; the first with being concerned
with others in drugging end robbing James Dicken-
son of four sovereigns and about 21. in silver; the
second, with stealing a firkin of butter, the property
of William Johnson ; and the third, with escaping
from the Walworth station-house.
In support of the first charge, Mr. Dickenson, a
boot and shoemaker, residing at No. 4, High-street,
Peckham, deposed that on the evening of that day
twelvemonth he was in a public-house in White-
chapel, reading a newspaper about the Mannings,
when the prisoner and another man got into conver-
sation with him, and pressed him to take some gin
wi'h them. He foolishly did so, and immediately
after became so stupified as to lose all recollection of
what became of him until the following morning,
when he found himself at the police-station in Leman-
street, Whitechspel. When he entered the public-
house he was quite sober, and had in his possession
four sovereigns and about two pounds in silver in his
pocket,
and this, as well as a blue silk pocket-hand-
kerchief, be was robbed of.
Two witnesses, to whom the prisoner was well
known, deposed to having seen him and a man named
Norris leading the prosecutor, who appeared as if in a
state of extreme intoxication, along Brick-lane,
Wbitechapel, on the evening of the 23.1 of October,
1849. They took him into one of the bye-streets,
and there Norris rifled his pockets while the prisoner
held up his arms. Both then made their escape, but
Norris was subsequently apprehended, tried, and con-
victed of the charge, but the prisoner managed to
keep out of the way until about a week since,
when he was apprehended on suspicion of com-
mitting a burglary in Short's-gardens, Drury-
lane, and upon being discharged from Bow-street
was retaken by Sergeant Quinnear upon the present
charges.

Po-lice-sergeant James M'lntosh H 9 deposed to
having found the prosecutor about nine o'clock in the
evening of that day twelvemonth in Thrall-street,
Whitechapel, in a state of apparent intoxication, and
removed him to the station-house. Norris, the priso-
ner's companion, had been tried at the Middlesex Ses-
sions on the charge, convicted, and sentenced to one
year's imprisonment.
In the second charge, of stealing the firkin of
butter, the prisoner was distinctly sworn to as being
one of the two men who took the property from the
door of the prosecutor on the evening of the 22d of
March last, and carried it away. Two days after he
was taken into custody by Sergeant Quinnear, who
removed him to Lock's-fields station-house, but he
managed to get away from there, and has been at
large until he was apprehended as above stated.
The prisoner cross-examined the different wit-
nesses with a tact and shrewdness that would have
done credit to the most practised Old Bailey barrister,
but the evidence was so conclusive as to baffle his
ingenuity to shake it; and he was fully committed
for trial.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The Weser &dung has letters from Altona of
the 20th inst., stating that the Schleswig-Holstein
outposts have again advanced to the turnpike be-
tween Seeth and Friederichstadt. The Gefion
frigate bas been towed into the inner harbour of
Eckenforde, and Denmark has consented to the re-
moval of that vessel. We learn from the Copen-
hagen papers that the Danish army is preparing for
a winter campaign.
General IVinnisEN has published an official list
of the loss of the Schleswig-Holstein army before
Friederichstadt. From this account it appears that
there have been killed-12 officers, 10 non-commis-
sioned officers, and 51 privates ; wounded-23
officers, 43 non-commissioned officers, and 406
privates; missing-3 officers, 9 non-commissioned
officers, and 141 privates. The 6th and 11th
battalions suffered the most, and their loss is
respectively named at 211, and 149 killed, wounded,
and missing. The Ist Jager Corps lost 77, and the
15th battalion of infantry 64 in all. The slightly
wounded, who remained with their regiments, are not
mentioned among the list of casualties. In addition
to the number of officers two surgeons are mentioned.
Toe result has been that 700 officers and men have
been placed hors du cGmbat.

of a most questionable character has been actually

ment, which, having declined one suggestion, is ex-
pected to, make another. All depends on the nature
of the remonstrance to be addressed to the Court of
Prussia, which ought, of course, to have due regard
to the dignity of a great military power, but ought
also to leave no doubt that Prussia must consult her
own dignity as well as her faith with Denmark.—

SALES OF ENCUMBERED ESTATES.

DUBLIN, WEDNUSDAY MORNING.—The business of
the second session of the Encumbered Estates Court
commenced yesterday, when no leas than seven pro-
perties changed hands in the brief apace of four hours.
The first sale was of lands in the county of Tipperary,
the property of Mr. Cooper Crawford, yielding a nut
profit rent of 3(34/. 4s. lUd. It was set up in sepa•
rate lots, but there being no bidders the whole was
offered, ato.! purchased by the petitioner in the case for
the suns of 6,000/. An estate in the county of Cork
was put up in eight lots, all of which were disposed
of, the whole .ptoducing 10,7001. The aggregate
rental was 851/. 23. 41. The third sale was also of
property in the county of Cork, part of the estates of
Mr. Robert Warren, together with houses and pre-
mises in the city of Cork, the latter of which realised
800/. The prepsrty in the county yielded an annual
rental of 5581., subject, however, to revertil heavy
annuities which materially deteriorated the value of
the whole. It was disposed of in four lots, and brought
4,4601. A small estate ;n the county of Limerick,
producing a profit rent of little over 1001. per annum,
sold for 1,5201. Some lands in the county
of Dublin, yielding a yearly profit rent of 1881..
were sold, after a brisk competition, for 3,0001. A
property in the county of Kildare was offered in four
lots, but one of which found a purchaser at 2,6251.
The sale of the other lots was adjourned, the sums bid
being deemed below the value. The last and most
important sale was cf an estate in the county of
Wexford, the first lot consisting of 865 a. Ic. 7ip.
statute measure, and producing 1,1971. is. 3d. per
annum, including the value of land in owner's pos-
session.-Mr. N. M. Power bid 10.0001.; Mr. Edward
Carltoe, 10.500/. ; Sir Robert Bsteson, 11,0001.
After some advances Mr. Power bid 16,0001. Sale
deferred to a later period of the day, and was pur-
chased by Mr. Power for 17,500/. Lot 2.—The fee
and inheritance of and in the lands of Bolderan, con-
taining 488:i. Ir. 16p. statute measure, and producing
a perpetual head rent of 46/. 33. Id. per annum. The
following were the biddings :—Mr. Carlton, 500/. ;
Mr. Daniel Thorpe, 800/. ; Mr, Power, 1,0001.; Mr.
Benjamin Conn, 1,0501.; Mr. Power, 1,1004 The

three remaining lots produced over 1,6001. The
court adjourned at four o'clock.

MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.
During the present week the arrivals of English
Wheat for ottr market, cca3t•Wise, have been confined to
1,720 quarters. The quantity fresh up to-day by land
carriage was small. Notwithstanding that the show of
samples was trifling, the demand for all kinds of Wheat
of home produce proved exceedingly heavy. Finequalities
were mostly held at Monday's prices, In the middling
and inferior qualities, though in some instances offered
at is per quarter less money, next to nothing was doing.
Foreign Wheat, the imports of which have been only
2,550 quarters, moved off heavily, but we have no actual
decline to notice in the quotations, which were almost
noruinal. Very little fore inn Barley was on offer. The
show of English was extensive. Generally speaking the
trade ruled inactive at bark' V stationary prices. We had
a large quantity of Malt on show. The demand fur
that article was extremely heavy at the late decline.
Oats, Beans, Peas, and Indian Corn were neglected. Tho
top price of Flour was 3Es per 2801bs. The trade con.
tinued heavy.

IMPORTANT NEWS of Sill% JOEN
FRANKLIN.

[The following official communication from the
Admiralty appeared in our Third Edition of yes-
terasy:—]
With reference to the article in this day's :Morning
Herald, in which it is stated " the writer of the letter
states that be had seen a gentleman from Kamschatka,
who informed him that he had seen Sir John Frank-
lin, that he and all his party were quite safe, and
coming through the North-West Passage," we have
been furnished with the following copy of a letter
from Mr. Samuel Peck to the Lords of the Admiralty,
by which it will be observed that no mention is made
of Sir John Franklin having been " SEEN" by any

one.

(Corr.)
TO THE LORDS OF THE ADMIRALTY
Liverpool, March 6, 1850.

MY LORDS,—I hasten to give the intelligence
I have received regarding Sir John Franklin and his
expedition, which I believe to be the first, and I trust
will prove correct, as I can give full evidence to the
honour and truthfulness of the writer, my son.
Herewith a full extract of the letter, dated San
Francisco Bay, California, Sunday, Dec 30, 1849 :
" There was a gentleman on board this ship yes-
terday that has just arrived from Kamschatka, with the
news of the discovery of Sir John Franklin and all
his party. They are all well, and have come through
the North-West Passage.

(Signed) " CIIAS. WILLIAM PECH."
My son writes from on board the English ship
Blakely, of Liverpool.
I trust, my Lords, that I shall have been the first
to give the intelligence of the missing expedition.
The truth or erroneous information conveyed by the
gentleman alluded to by my son, must shortly become
known.
I give also a postscript to my son's letter :
" P.S.—This is favoured by Captain Askew, late of
the barque Chillian, of London, who has kindly
offered to post it for me at Panama, to clear the
Yankee postage."—C. W. P.

THE ART-JOURNAL.

Immediately the collection of paintings at the
Vernon Gallery has been exhausted as a means of
affording subjects for the engraver, the subscribers to
the Art-Journal will have reason to regret that cir-
cumstance. The illustnitions to the March number
taken from that noble gift to the nation are Pickers-
gill's " Syrian Maid," Mulreark's inimitable " Last
In " and Turner's " Grand •Cmal—Venice." In
addition to these brilliant attractions we must also
particulare Mrs. S. C. Ilall's " Pilgrimage to the
tomb of William Penn." The remainder of the con-
tributions are as usual, commendable.
