Commodore Skipsey, continues under orders (with
strong foul winds), for the Cape of Good Hope and
Eastern Coast of Africa, command ; the Hasty
schooner, for the Mauritius, in company.
The Britomart, 10, Capt. R. H. Manners, this
day sailed for Plymouth. Yesterday the Royalist,

station, to relieve the Aurora. The Wasp sloop is
to be commissioned by Captain R. Dickenson, C.B.
(late of the Genoa) at this port.
The Challenger frigate, Captain Fitzclarence, is
come into harbour, to have made some internal fit-
ments,. preparatory to escorting his Royal Highness

Channel, by embarking here. Don Miguel is ex-
pected at Saltram, the seat of Earl Morley, for a
few days ; he purposes embarking on the 16th inst.

THE PET AND THE COAL HEAVER-A PRIME MILL rot?.

LOVE.

On Wednesday last, as Dick Curtis and his pal, Young
Dutch SaM, were walking down Blackfriars-road, their
atteption was attracted by a gentleman complaining of
having been struck by the long whip of a coal heaver, who
was flourishing it about in the usual careless manner.—
Remonstrances only produced impertinence; but almost at
the same .moment Young Dutch Sam having received a
similar accidental touch, he exclaimed in turn against the
conduct of the Black Diamond Merchant. He, too, had
his share of abuse, when the Pet stepped forward and
significantly said, " If you don't mind what you are about,
you may get well thrashed !" " Will you do it ?" said Cody.
" Perhaps I might," answered the Pet—whose buckish
costume and small figure, gave but little promise of a very
troublesome customer; and especially as Cualy
nearly twelve stone, while the Pet, everybody knows, does
not weigh above nine stone. " We'll soon see that," ex-
claimed Codiy, and off went his jogs in a twinkling,.---
'lNothing loth," Dick doffed his' coat and caster with
equal quickness ; and out they went into the road, Dick se-
conded by young Dutch Sam, and Coalg by his brother whip.

MR. CANNING.

(From a Vera Cruz Paper—El vera Crusiano Libre,
October 19.)
George Canning exists no more ; the diplo-
matist bfore whom the political directors of the
most enlightened nations bowed, occupies now
only a small sepulchral corner! The friend of
the people, the lover of mankind, and the hope
of these countries that pant for liberty, has paid
the painful and inevitable debt of nature. Our
eyes ought to fill with the pure tears of gratitude.
Our hearts, the hearts of free Mexicans, must
mourn for the tomb of the consummate politician
and liberal European, who, rising superior to the
prejudices of that hemisphere in which he first
saw the light, knew how to give due splendour
to the sacrifices of the Mexican States, and to
consolidate work, for which we are indebted to
the heroes of our glorious revolution, in defiance-
to the Holy Alliance, paralyzing its threatening
arm ; and, lastly, completing his work by con-
vincing the aristocracy of Europe that their reign
was at an end. This is due to the virtues and
talents of him who knew quietly to command the
people only by uniting himself with them by the
bonds of philanthropy and knowledge. The
name of Mr. Canning has thus become insepa-
rably connected with the history of Mexico. The
tears of all Americans and other freemen will
ever moisten the tomb of Mr. Canning. The
Portuguese and the votaries of the European
liberty, who still eat the 'bread of the beneficence
of this distinguished man, whilst weeping the
death of their protector, must crown his tomb
with civic laurels, and indelibly engrave his tomb
stone with the following inscription :

" Here lies the friend of all men,
Theman of humanity,
The consolation of our troubles :
In this place our hopes lie buried."

Justice requires this. There is scarce one
of the mighty upon earth that requires such a
tribute. Conquerors and monarchs ever crave it,
and slaves in their self abasement are ever ready
to yield it. Not so the immortal Canning. Thy
virtues, thy deeds, and thy talents, will not allow
any to dispense with these feelings, and to refrain
from weeping. The Americans in general, and
we in particular, will write on thy tomb-stone the
following motto :

To the liberal of both worlds.
To the friend of the people of Columbus.
The tribute of eternal gratitude of the Mexicans.
The death of Mr. Canning must be noted
In the history of Mexico
Amongst national calamities."

MANCHESTER CORN MARKET.—Jan. 5.

In the course of this week the Corn Trade in this district
has been in the same inanimate state as so frequently re-
ported of late. There was a numerous attendance of
Millers and dealers on the Corn Exchange to-day. Fine
dry Wheat maintains last Saturday's rates ; the damp and
inferior samples are not saleable. Grinding Barley is a
shade Tower, and Oats are further depressed id. to Id. per
451hs. The demand for Boiling Pease is quite trifling ;
the Bean trade is likewise dull. The Brewers and Dealers
have become very shy purchasers of Malt, expecting prices
will be further reduced as the supplies increase. The sale
of Flour is exceedingly heavy at the subjoined quotations,
and Oatmeal remains dull.

on his Royal Highness on Saturday to invite the PRINCE
to Dinner at the Mansion-house. His Lordship was intro-
duced to his Royal Highness by Count VILLA REAL, the
PRINCE'S Chamberlain, when his Royal Highness, after
thanking his Lordship for his attention, expressed his re-
gret, that owing to the previous engagements to dinner
during the short stay he should make in this capital
he should be prevented from accepting the invitation.

COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.

On Saturday night Don Miguel visited this
Theatre, but without-pomp or preparation of any
kind. He did not, however, make his appearance
until nearly the commencement of the pantomime,
attended by Earl Mountcharles, and some three or
four foreign gentlemen, apparently natives of Por-
tugal, when the performers instantly burst forth into
God Save the King," which was most vociferously
eaned for by the audience. The following appro-
priate verse was added by Madame Vestris for the
occasion

Welcome to Britain's Isle,
Where Freedom love's to smile,
Miguel the Brave ;
And When your reign commence
Ala .
~
ve every heart evince
A' kr their Noble Prince,
God save the King !
His Royal Highness was loudly cheered 1)04 on
entering and quitting the Theatre, and seemed much
Pleased with the various diverting
tricks and inci-
dents in the pantomime. The play was " The
Man of the World," in which Young undertook the
difficult part of Sir Pertinax Mac Sycophant, with
more ability and less mannerism than usual. He
was much and deservedly applauded throughout.

THE WRKETS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-EXCHANGE.

The supply of Wheat and Flour last week was consider-
able, but of most other articles there were moderate quan-
tities. This morning there is not much Grain of any de-
scription fresh up. The Wheat trade fully supports the
terms last quoted for the fairest descriptions, but other
sorts still meet a dull sale. The hest parcels of Barley sell
on rather better terms than of late, but not sufficiently so
to alter the quotations. Beans that are dry command at-
tention at late prices, but damp parcels sell heavily.—
Pease of both kinds meet a slack demand, but the prices
are unaltered. The quantity of Oats is much less-than of
late, and this trade has maintained the late quotations.—
In consequence of the late considerable accession to the
supply of Flour, this article now meets a dull sale. Rape-
seed is very little in demand, at 28/. to 29/. per last.

very sluggish throughout, with Beef at about 2d., Mutton

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

TATTERSALL'S.

The Room yesterday was respectably attended, and the
betting tolerably brisk. The Oaks is likely to he a good
betting race, the field being already larger than usual, and
the fillies supposed to be the finest Oaks lot seen at New-
market for many years. Lord Exeter's two keep at the
head of the list; and being strong, fast mares, and good
public runners, they are likely to continue so. The King's
Electives colt and Mr. Hunter's Canvas colt were in re-
quest for the Derby, the betting for which generally wan
rather dull. The odds closed thus :

prefer this request, and that be tnoi.t decidedly objected to
it ; his objection appeared to be from feeling for me; and
hoping I know something of self by this time, I think his
kind motives are erroneous, and therefore presume to hope
you will not think it necesury, to refuse the hist,requei4 of
13. MONTGOMERY."
Mr. Wontner stated,' that in accordance with
Montgomery's wishes, he iapplied to the Sheriffs to
know if it would be allowed, at the same time ex-
pressing his opinion that it would be improper, and
the Sheriffs, Messrs. Spottiswood and Wilde, refused
to grant the request. It was supposed that the in-
tention of this letter was to lull the iu:picions of
Mr. Wontner, as by his letter to Wakefield he had
evidently intended suicide at th.ft time he wrote it.
The Coroner then proceeded to comment on the
evidence. He observed, that there were two ques-
tions to be determiued by the Jury ; fi-st, whether
the deceased • destroyed himself, of whieji there
could be no doubt; and secondly, whether he de-
stroyed himself when in a sane state of mind.
The Jury having consulted for about five minutes,
the foreman stated, that " the Jury were of opi-
nion that the deceased committed suicide when in a
sane state of mini."
It is but fair to state that we are indebted to Mr.
Wontner for his willing communications; and that
he was moat anxious, during the inquest, that every
inquiry should be made which could possibly eluci-
date this extraordinary affair, and bring it properly
before the public.
Besides the above letters, Montgomery left several
letters addressed to very respectable friends, in one
of them two sovereigns were inclosed and sealed in
separate papers. It is a curious fact, that in his last
hours he bequeathed,his body to Mr. Box, the sur-
geon of New ate, for the advancement of anatomical
science. By the verdict of the jury his
body is at the disposal of the Sheriffs, and if not
disSected, cannot receive. Christian burial.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MA RL BOROUGH-STREET. —ln consequence of pri'
vate information given to Mr. Plank, the chief officej'
of the above office, that a meeting was contetoplaW,
between an Officer in the Guards and a gentlentan.°l
rank and fashion, no time was lost in taking the nece"
sary measures for preventing a breach of the peace'
Mr. Plank, after procuring the proper authority for takiq,
the parties into custody, and obtaining the assistance d
another officer, Goddard, proceeded in a post-chaise will'
all possible speed to the place of meeting, Worrawooef
scrubs, where they arrived shortly after three o'clocl
Notwithstanding the early hour of the morning
the parties were assembled on the ground, amountia(
in number to eight individuals, and, instead of ore
duel being contemplated, it is seriously asserted that'
series were intended. Immediately the chaise Wf
perceived approaching the spot, the patties retreste:
precipitately up an adjoining lane, for the distance of alto,'
a mile, considering themselves secure ; a position was abool
being taken between the contending parties, when the
officers, who had disguised their near approach from li
hind the adjoining hedges, proceeded to execute their war
rant, and took into custody Wiliam Barton, Esq., a Captai;
in the Guards, and his antagonist, William Ford, Esq.,
gentleman of independent fortune.
The whole of the parties, together with their duelling
apparatus, were immediately conveyed to town, and wet'
shortly examined before the Sitting Magistrate the Wl'
looming. The object of the meeting being undeniable'
the two gentlemen above named were held to bail, then''
selves in 1,0001., and two sureties in 500/. each, to keel
the peace towards all his Majesty's subjects.
Sir Jacob Astley and Mr. Stinson], the banker, were tiir
sureties for one of the parties.

There were several causes assigned for the above l
tended meeting ; the most credited of which is, that !I
originated out of some severe comment upon a late aff
of honour, as it is termed, between a gallant Captain
the Guards and a sporting Baronet, whose names 110
recently figured in one of the Courts of Law at \fee
minster.

CATTLE MA IMET.---Our show of cattle this week con-
sisted of 493 ; viz., 264 three-years-olds and upwards ;
83 two-years-olds ; 74 highlanders ; 56 stirks, 15 cows
and 1 bon. The drove cattle were all of the Galloway
kind, and though generally in good condition, were con-
siderably inferior to last week's show; dealing, however,
we
areagain
wsorry r

aasaye, aas d
a period Of the day when
very
dull, and nothing of
all business should have been finished, and the Sands
cleared. The best lot of Galloways, which was sold,
consequence
brought 101. 15s. ; this was certainly a fine lot, and we
have seen when such a one would have brought nearly 2/.
per head more; the next best lot sold for 10 guineas per
head ; the third.best brought 91. ss. ; and the fourth best,
81. 10s. per head. The two-years-olds were a fair show ;
the best lot brought 61. per head, and a good many other
lots were bought at from 5/. to 5/. 10s. The highlanders
were mostly stirks, and we did not hear of any sales of
consequence. The market, upon the whole, was dull, and
prices declining, although not so much so as last week.
Pius.---23 carts—the demand was pretty fair, and most,
if not all, was sold off; prices are from 10s. to 20s. per
head.

At Penrith Cattle Fair on Thursday week, the show
was exceedingly numerous, indeed more so than on any
previous occasion for this long while ; dealing, however,
was very dull, and cattle front this neighbourhood Ind not
pay the expense of di king. Ahout a third part remained
unsold.
