don of the prisoner. The prisoner then asked him for
some money, and he gave her 101. She said that was
not enough, and wanted another 101. Not having so
much money with him, he told her if she would accom-
pany hint to his residmce, be would give her the mousy.
Ste accordingly went with him, and he gave her the 101.
She then lett, and about two days after she called again.
and told him he was to go to his situation on the follow-
ing Monday, on which day- he was to meet his Lord-
ship at her house, who would be surety for the prose-
cutor.. He went there on the Monday according to
appointment, when he found . t')at the prisoner had
absconded without paying her rent. This excited his
suspicions, and on inquiring at Lord Alfred Paget',
he was informed that his Lordship knew nothing at all
about her. lle saw nothing more of her urtil the 22d
of May last, when he met her in Knightsbridge, and
gave her in charge.
Lord Alfred Paget proved that he was not acquainted
with the prisoner, neither had he ever seen her before
in his life. The letter produced was not in his hand-
writing. , . _

ElizA Gosby, said about four years ago, the prisoner
obtained 270/.. from her under the pretence of in-
vesting it for her advantage. She saw nothing more
of the prisoner for a considerable time after. when she
demanded the restoration of her money. The prisoner
then gave her 70/., and an "I. 0. U." fir the remainder.
The latter had not been taken up.
Several tradesmen who were in court, stated that the
prisoner had swindled them out of property to a large
amount, under the pretence of showing them to various
nobleman and gentlemen. A number of other charges
were gone into, and the prisoner was fully committed
for trial.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was heavy,
the sales being estimated at 4,000 bales, of which 400
American were taken on speculation, and 800 for export.
Prices for American under 7fd. per lb. were *d. per lb.
cheaper. The sal-es comprised 3,000 American, 600
Brazil at lid. to Bd., 200 Surat at &id. to 5;c1., and 50
Sea Islands at Is. Id. to ls. 5d per lb.—ln Railway
Shares a good business was d.,ne, at higher quotations.
There are nu arrivals to-day with mews of particular
interest, the continental accounts merely noticing steady
markets for produce.
In the latest accounts from Quebec it is stated that—

" The number of vessels arrived in our port this sea-
son, from the opening of the navigation to this date, is
287, the aggregate burden of which is 117,317 tons ;
being an increase over the statement of last year for ti.e
same period, of 109 ships and 45,028 tons. The total
number of passengers arrived up to yesterday was 118
cabin, and 8,485 steerage—in all, 8,603. On referring to
the comparative statement of last ear for the above-
mentioned period, we find that the balance was in
favour of the preceding year (1848) 91 vessels and
33.480 tons.

" We have bad an extraordinary prevalence of strong
easterly winds ar Quebec, which prevents the setting in
of warm weather, and materially operates against the
progress of vegetation. We have arrived at the 25th
May, and h.ato not 3et experienced one day's summer
wa: mit)."

The settlement of the Consol alcount occupies chief
attention to-day. The market opened well. at 971 it
for Money, and 974 j for Account; but the
prices now are down to 97 to / for Money,
and to 97 to / for the July account. The New Three.

chequer bills are 68s. to 71,. premium.

THE EX.KING OF THE FRENCII.—We regret to
hear the health of the Count de Neuilly is rapidly declining,
and that his symptoms are such as to cause the greatest
anxiety regarding their immediate results. The ex-King
arrived the Victoria Hotel, St. Leonard's, about a mouth
back, and has been confined to his room ever since.

TII R GROWING FLAX IN IRELAND.-(From a
Correspondent. )—.The appearance of the young flax crops is
very satisfactory. They are, in most cases, looking re-
markably well. The weather could not be more genial for
their growth. Some stalks of flax have been exhibited,
grown near Belfast, already 21 inches in length, and increas-
ing at the rate of nearly two inches daily.
