this morning; the Three per Cents. having receded from
30i to 30%, and the Consols to 32. Portuguese Bonds remain
at Saturday's rates. Belgian have advanced to 104, but the
value of Dutch Stock is rather lower than it was at the close of
last week. Brazilian Stock is firm at 75%, but Mexican has
fallen to 324.
A limited amount of transactions has been indulged in as re-

The exceptions are York and North Midland. Old, which are
up to 71 premium; the Ditto Scarborough Branch, to 154

FLANDERS MAIL.
BRUSSELS, JAL 22.—Letters from Madrid, of the 29th De'
cember, state that by order of the Spanish Government an
new postal convention between Spain and Belgium was to 10
carried into effect on the Ist of January, 1844. It is in e°l"
templat.ion at Antwerp, to establish a regular communication
between the Scheldt and Rhine between Antwerp and cologne.
The object proposed is to serve the ports of the Lower Rhine,
and thus to avoid the expense of transshipping and forwarding
goods, to which they would be subject in consignments made
by the railway, since that goes no further than Cologne.
The following measure, of which the official journals give. •
notice, appears to us to be very worthy of commendation.
the time of the inquiry into the state of the linen manatee'
tures, the frauds practised in the trade of flax seed to the pro'
judice of our farmers, and of the quality of our linens was re'
peatedly pointed out ; it was the subject of numerous cow'
plaints. The Committee of Inquiry in its Reports called the
attention of the GOternment to this subject ; we are happy W
find that a formality has just been adopted which will serve to
cheek the evil, if not entirely, yet in a great measure. The
following is the notice :
"To satisfy the wishes of the merchants of Riga, the Bel"
gian Consul in that city has been authorised (whenever to,
shall be requested by the merchants) to affix to the barrels 0'
linseed intended for Belgium leaden stamps, with the Consul
seal, and to deliver at the same time certificates stating the
origin and the destination of the seed."
It is evident that this measure must give our farmers mots
certain guarantees for the real origin of seed sold as Riga seeul
especially if it is delivered in the original packages, preserv,e:
entire, and if at the time of the sale it is accompanied by ti'v
certificates given by the Consul.
The committee of the merchants at Riga has decided that
the expenses on consignments of linseed for Belgium shall he
reduced to the same rate as on those for England.
VIENNA, DEC. 23.—His Highness Prince Coloredo, Master
of the household of his Majesty the Emperor, died at Ole ,

ROCHESTER, JAN. G. THE RECENT CHARGE
AGAINST A CLERGYMAN AND A BUTCHER FOR SELLING
ITNwHOLESOME FOOD.—The adjourned inquiry into the case
against the Rev. Henry Winter, chaplain to the Fortitude con-
vict-ship, and Mr. George Bassett, butcher, of High-street,
Chatham, was resumed yesterday, before a full bench of
county magistrates. The inquirv.excited the most intense in-
terest, and during the five hours investigation the court was so
densely crowded that it was impossible to obtain standing room ;
every avenue leading to the court was blocked up by farmers
and others of the neighbourhood, anxious to hear the result.
The evidence adduced on the previous day having been read
over, and some additional evidence brought forward, Mr. Espi-
nasse was heard at leng'h for the defendants. Ultimately the
chair Man decided that, in default of any evidence on the part of
the defendants, the Bench must bold them to bail, to answer
the charge at the quarter sessions. Mr. Espinasse begged
leave to offer some evidence, and to make some observations,
submitting that the bench ought not to hold the parties to bail,
but leave the prosecutor to prefer an indictment at the sessions.
'Hie Learn( d Gentleman then called Robert Maynard, in the
employ of Mr. Bassett. Ile stated, I recollect the carcase of
a heifer being brought to my master's on the 25th of November
last, in Mr. Winter's cart, by Mr. Winter's man. Mr. Bassett
went to the cart, and said he did not think he could do any-
thing with it. The next morning, by my master's directions,
I (Alt it up for the hogs. The bones I had for my perquisites,
and the skin went to the tanner's. This witness underwent a
rigid examination by the witnesses, but persevered in his tes-
timony. !Ur. Espinasse offered to produce Mr. Bassett's
pocket-book of the entry of the transaction. The magistrates
retired for ten minutes, when, on their entering the Court
again, the Rev. Chairman informed Mr. Espinasse and the
prosecutor that the Bench had determined to •discharge the
defendants, and leave the prosecutor to indict at the sessions
or assizes.

THE QUEEN AND TIIE POOR ACTRESS.—There is
a little incident connected with the temporary residence of the
Princess Victoria at Tunbridge Wells, which I delight to re-
cord. It so happened that the husband of one of the actresses
at the small theatre in that lovely and captivating watering•
place, 1 died and left his widow in the condition of about
becoming a mother. The fact came to her knowledge, and she
applied to the Duchess for aid to the unfortunate lady.
Always anxious to relieve distress, she placed 101. in the hands
01 the Princess Victoria, who added a similar suns herself. She
then applied for permission to be the bearer of this sum of 20/.
to the distressed and disconsolate actress. With that activity
which distinguished her in all her l roceedings, she hastened to
the afflicted woman, conversed with her with great kindness
and affability, witnessed the good which was accomplished by
the bestowment of the sum in question, and afterwards made
many inquiries as to her condition. Here, however, her
Royal munificence did not terminate, for when her Majesty
ascended the throne she forgot not the poor widow of 'run-
bridge Wells, but sent to her a kindly intimation that an an.
nuity of 401. would lie paid to her during the rest of her life.

ANOTHER DESTRUCTIVE FIRX AT J. Itoms's FAC-
TORY, OLD KENT-ROAD.—On Sunday morning, at out one
o'clock, a most destructive fire broke out in the store-rooms
belonging to Mr. Josiah Rolls, neer •cloth and table-cover ma-
nufacturer, japanner, &c., near the canal bridge in the Old
Kent-road. The readers of The Sun will remember that this
is the third fire that has happened upon these premises within
the last twelve months. The store in which the present fire
originated was a very capacious one, possessing sufficient room
for drying at least sixty pieces of prepared goods of twelve yards
each in length. It is situate in a line with another store, and
the printing-room is contiguous to it. The first appearance o'
a tire upon the premises was noticed by the private watchman,
who instantly ran into the road anti gave the alarm. In a short
time the engine front the Southwark-bridge-road station of the
brigade was upon the spot, closely followed by the Watling-
street engine, and those from the Waterloo-road station and the
West of England office. From the easily ignitable charaet:r of
the materials, the fire had, even in so short a time, obtained
sufficient hold of the japan store and its contents, to warrant
the expectation that nothing it- contained would be rescued.
The exertions of the firemen were consequently directed to
the rescue of the buildings north of the store, in which were
suiyended many pieces of table covers and other sock, besides
a considerable quatelty of japan mixture, oils, &e. Fortunately,
their efforts were successful, the fire being confined to the
building in which it originated. The root tell in shortly after
the outbreak, and not a particle of the property in the store
was saved. An abundance of water was obtained from a ditch
close by the gable end of the premises, which being poured
with much judgment upon the burning mass, extinguished it
by two o'clock. The building and stock are not insured.
}RIGHTFUL Loss or LIFE.—A most deplorable
event occurred on Monday evening at the Dynys Coal Works,
the property of Walter Coffin, Esq., in the parish of Llantris-
sent, in Gamorganshire. The case is at present involved in
considei able mystery, but from what we can collect it was is
ease of fire damp, and that from ten to twelve lives have been
suTiliecii, aril sesere injuries have been suffered by others.
The roof of the pit has been blown up, and the bodies are all
buried in the ruins, anti it is calculated that a week of day and
night labour will be requited before the bodies can be found.—
