In the produce markets to-day there is a remarkable fea-
ture to notice, a declaration of very nearly 13,000 bags of
Mauritius sugar, and which under all circumstances has
gone . off much better than was anticipated, the
more especially as many alterations are looked
for in the tariff. In several quarters doubts
were entertained whether Sir Robert Peel really
intended to bring forward the whole of the Budget on the
14th instant, but the declaration last night in Parliament
has set this question entirely at rest. An anxiety, great in-
deed, is exhibited to learn what the alterations are to be.
The holders of British Plantation Sugars, as well as of Mau-
ritius' are pressing sales, under the expectation that there
will be a liberal alteration of the duties upon foreign free-
labour produce.
There has not been any late arrival announced from the
British colonies to-day.
There has been a heavy market for the Three per Cent.
Consols to-day. Sales have been made for immediate trans-
fer at 994, and for the Account at 99%, being a fall of % to
% per cent, on the highest value paid yesterday. Bank Stock
has receded from 215 to 2131/2. The Reduced Three per Cents.
have fluctuated from 993/4 to 100, and the New Three-and-
a-Quarter per Cents. from 103% to 5/8. India Stock is 2
per cent. lower than it was yesterday, namely, at 282.

In the Foreign Funds not a great deal of business has been
transacted this morning. Austrian Bonds have been done at
115 ; Chilian at 101 ; Mexican at 364 ; Portuguese at 86 ;
Russian at 119%. The Spanish Three per Cents. have fallen
from 414 to 40%, and the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.
to 6314.
A vast amount of business has been transacted in the Rail-
way Shares to-day, but the quotations are scarcely so high
as yesterday, as our corrected list of the day will show. The

(Az, THE SOCIAL CONDITION OF THE EMPIRE.
- This Journal was established for the express purpose of forwarding
and.aidingthe noble work of the Reform of the Social Condition of the
people of England. We would unite on this common ground the good
and great men of all parties ; would afford a medium of connnu-
ideation and public discussion on all subjects relating to this vital
question ; we would show its importance to all classes, and force all
classes to reflect upon it. The task is arduous, but the end is no less
I than the salvatson of our country. Clahning the support of no isolated
party, and therefore truckling to none, we call boldly upon Whig,
Tor), and Radical to assist,oor efforts. It is the cause of self-pre-
servatlon—the cause of duty—the cause of civilisation—and, above
all, the cause of morality and Chrstianity.
In the Numbers already published, besides the usual News of
the week, Foreign and 'Domestic, Theatres and the Fine Arts,
the following important subjects are discussed by able writers :
—The State of the Church of England—The Social Evils
of 'lreland—Dwell'ngs of the Labouring 'Classes—The Repeal
Agitation—Necessity for ditera,ion in the New Poor-Laws—Society
and the Doctors—The Revenue—Sanatory Condition of Populous
Towns—Abolition of Window Tax insisted on—National Education
in Ireland—The Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Exeter
The Medical Profession—Shooting and Racing—System of False
Weights and Measures—Proposed Loan Societies—The Game-Laws
and their Champion Mr. Grantley Berkeley—Position of Political
Parties—Allotments for the Poor—Doctor versus Doctor—Law for
the Rich and Law for the Poor—Moral Effects of Capital Punishment
—Condition of the Roman Catholic Priesthood in Ireland—Railway
Progress—Allotments in Manufacturing Districts—lmportance of
Ventilation, &c., &c.
The following practical subjects will also form prominent topics of
discussion in the columns of YOUNG ENGLAND, and communica-
tions and suggestions upon each arc solicited :
Abolition of Cap tab Punishment. National Sports and Amusements.
National Education. Libraries for the People
The Poor-Laws. Church Building and the Abolition
The Game-Laws. of the Pew System, as affecting
Sanatory Condition of the Popu- the Rights of the Poor and Di-
lation. terests of Religion.
Loan Societies for the Poor. Reduction or Total Removal of
Improvement of the Dwellings of Taxes on Articles of Cousump-
the Latour ng Classes. tion by the Poor.
The Allotment System. Encouragement by Rewards and
Foot-paths and Common Lands. Prizes to Meritorious Indivi-
Public Baths and Wash-houses. duals among the humbler dasses.
False Weights and Measures. Law Reform.
Abolition of the Window-Tax. Colonial Reform.

paid as well as those of other employers in the town,
they are to be advanced to the same terms.—Bolten Free

Mills of Putney, and Batten of Kingston,
was toru nfour
the Angel public-house, at Kingston, to the Marquis of
from the
at Dittos Marsh. The day was most unpropitious,
the ground- being very heavy from the breaking up of the
frost and the rain. The men came to the starting-post ap-
parently in excellent health; and, upon a signal being given,
they went away at a ashing pace, keeping well together to
the second mile, when Batten, by great exertion, contrived to head his opponent a short distance. Mills, however, soon
gained upon him, and it was evident that the condition of
Batten could not stand the pace. When about half a mile
from home, Mills shot ahead, and kept in that position to
the end of the race, accomplishing the four miles in a few
seconds over twenty-two minutes.
DEATH OF COLONEL GRAVES.—We have just
received intelligence of the death of this venerable officer, at
