HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

Carlotta Grisi took her benefit last evening, on which occa-
sion the marvellous Pas de Quatre, by Taglioni, Cerito, Lu-
cile Grahn, and the fair benefi jaire herself, was repeated, and
excited even greater enthusiasm than it did on Saturday. The
stage, at the conclusion, was a perfect parterre of bouquets;
and when, after the fall of the curtain, the " wondrous four
were led on by Perrot, the flowery shower was renewed. One
bouquet of enormous size was thrown to Perrot, a well-de-
served tribute to the inventive genius of that great artiste.
Perrot, however, having bowed his acknowledgments, divided
his bouquet into four parts, and gave one to each of the ladies.
The opera was Mozart's Cosi fun tutte, with the following
strong cast :—Alfonso. Lablache ; Ferrande, Mario ; Gngli-
elmo, F. Lablach ; Fiordiligi, Castellan ; Derabella, Rita
Borio; and Despina, Rossi Caccia.
Her Majesty and Prince Albert honoured the theatre with
their presence.

SECONDARIES.-(THIS DAY.)
(Before Mr. Secondary JAMES.)
FARR V. STOKES.
The plaintiff is a cheesemenger, in Lambeth, and the de-
fendant, a baker, in the York-road. The action was brought
to recover the sum of 5/. 65., for Irish butter supplied to de-
fendant. A witness was called who estimated the value of
such butter in February last at 50s. per cwt.
Some of the jury considered the valuation too low.
The SECONDARY said the jury could only go on the evi-
dence, for if they did not, their verdict would be set aside ;
they must not go on mere surmise, or do an act of injustice for
the sake of a few shillings.—Verdict for the amount claimed.
LESTER V. BOYLE.

The plaintiff in this case is a linen-draper, in Sun-street,
the action was brought to recover the sum of 31. Os. 9d., for
drapeey goods.
It was proposed, on behalf of the plaintiff, to prove the de-
livery of the goods to the wife, and her admission of the debt.
The SECONDARY said, unless the wife was carrying on busi-
ness as agent for her husband, her admission was-not binding.
The attorney said the goods were for domestic purposes.
The SECONDARY said, in that case the debt was due from
defendant, and the admission by the wife was not sufficient.
A witness was then called, who proved an admission by de-
fendant himself.—Verdict for plaintiff.
SMITH E. BRIGGS.
This was an action by an accountant for making up defen-
dant's books. The charge was ss. per hour, and amounted to
91. 14s.
It was clearly proved that sum had been agreed on, and that
it was a common charge. Thejury thought it a very high one.
The SECONDARY said it was a very usualone by accountants.
—Verdict for plaintiff.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE7(FRIDAY.)

Our arrivals this week consist chiefly of foreign and Irish
Oats, which have consisted of upwards of 50,000 quarters.
This large supply has, of course, a considerable effect upon the
trade, and lower prices must be submitted to in order to effect
sales. The fine weather caused the demand for English
Wheat to rule heavy, at barely Monday's quotations. In
foreign Wheat next to nothing was doing. Barley and Malt
were dull, but not cheaper. Beans and Peas were held at ful
prices.

Notwithstanding our market of to-day was scantily sup-
plied with Beasts, the demand for that description of stock
was heavy, at a reduction in price of 2d per 81bs. We had
on offer 200 Scots from Scotland, 120 Oxen and Cows from
Holland, 12 ditto from Hamburgh, and 50 Beasts from Ire-
land. The numbers of Sheep were by no means large, yet
the sale for them was inactive, at barely Monday's quotations.
Lambs moved off slowly, at late rates. The Veal trade was,
very dull, yet we can notice no variation in value. In Pigs
very little was doing. Mulch Cows sold at from 161 to 19110 s
each, including their small Calf.

We have again to report a very dull inquiry for all de-
scriptions of Hops here; indeed, so little is passing in them
that the quotations are almost nominal. The plantation
accounts are very favourable. In the duty very little is doing.
Owing to the actual prices being very uncertain, we have
omitted them.
