CLERKEN WELL,

BRUTAL TRBA.TMENT OT A MOTHBR BT A SON.—
Nathaniel Marks, a furniture broker, residing in
Eliza place, Sadler's Wells, was charged with violently
assaulting Elizabeth Marks, his mother. The parties
are of the Jewish persuasion.
The prosecutor deposed that on Saturday, between
twelve and one o'clock, she went into the workshop
and asked her son to accompany her, in order to pur-
chase an oven; he refused in a very violent manner,
upon which she observed that he ought to be ashamed
of himself to treat his aged mother so in the presence
of his workmen. Upon this he rushed upon her,
seized her by the shoulder, and forced her out of the
shop. She strove to save herself from falling down
the steps, but the prisoner having broken her gripe of
the door-post, knocked her down, and she fell on the
kerb-stone outside with great violence. When down
the prisoner kicked her on the body and side until
she was insensible. Her flesh in these places was
greatly contused, and she was still suffering much
pain.
Mr. COMM—What have you to say to this charge
of beating your mother ? prisoner (sneeringly)—I
don't know whether she is my mother or not ; per-
haps I am a bastard.
Mr. COMBB—Has he ever ill-treated you before ?
The unfortunate mother bared her neck, and showed
the marks of three stripes, which she declared the
prisoner had caused by dragging a red hot poker over
that part of her body. He heated the poker for the
purpose.
Mr. COMBE—What have you to say to that ?
Prisoner—Just nothing.

Mr. CoMBE—You must go to the House of Cor.
rection for two months, or pay a fine of 51.
He was committed.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

(From the London New Price Current of Sept. 24.)
SUGAR.—Since Tuesday last there has been more
activity in the West India Sugar market, but importers
generally have been more inclined to realise. To-day
there was a good demand for colory and strong refining
sorts of West India Sugar, and the rates previously esta-
blished were fully supported, but inferior qualities met
with a slow sale, and in some cases the prices accepted
were rather under those of Friday. The total purchases
are 460 hhds, including a public sale of 150 hhds Bar-
badoes, a soft parcel, which went heavily at a decline on
the rates of the last auction of 6d for the better, and is
per cwt for low and middling sorts. Fine yellow sold at
625, good middling 58s to 58s 6d, good 59s 6d to 61s,
middling 56s 6d to 57s 6d, low 55s 6d to 56s per cwt.
REFlNED.—Previous rates are well sustained for Re-
fined Sugar, and the demand has been lively from the
home trade ; the market is still sparingly supplied.
Brown Lumps for melting have been selling at 72s 6d ;
brown grocery 73s to 73s 6d ; standard Lumps
74s 6d to 75s ; Tittlers common to good 74s to
78s, fine ditto 79s to 83s ; Hambro' Loaves 74s 6d,
to 84s, double ditto 85s to 90s, and wet Lumps, 71s to
73s per cwt. The Grocers do not hold large stocks,
notwithstanding the immense quantity of Refined Sugar
purchased by them of late. Bastards in large parcels
have been disposed of, low to middling at 41s
to 475. good 48s to 525, and fine 53s to 57s per cwt.
To-day Refined Goods underwent no variation in the
value ; there was a good demand from the home trade,
and the market has a firm appearance. Bonded Crushed
Sugar is much wanted, and there are not sellers under
27s 6d for first quality.
MAITAITIIIS.—The market has been much better sup-
plied, and prices have declined 6d to Is per cwt for grey,
brown, and common yellow qualities, of which the sup-
ply has principally consisted, but the better sorts of yel-
low brought fully former rates This afternoon there
was no public sale. By private contract bright yellow
sorts were wanted at firm rates, but inferior kinds were
not much sought after.

EAST INDIA.--In the value of white or strong yellow
descriptions of Bengal Sugar no variation has taken
place since Tuesday last; a good business has been
transacted, but common yellow sorts have met with
a dull sale at a decline on former rates of Is per cwt.
This afternoon three parcels of Bengal Sugar, amount-
ing to G,258 bags 9 chests, were brought to public sale,
4,321 bags 9 chests of which consisted of date ; of these
a small part only sold at easier rates, and went at
51s 6d to 53s 6d for low and soft yellow, 54s 6d to
57s for mid, 5054 to 55s for damp and washed, 62s 6d
to 65s for good and fine sound white, 60s for
mid, and 58s to 618 6d for damp and washed ; other sorts
were all sold at stiff rates—very fine sound white fetched
68s to 69s 6d, fine 65s 6d to 675, good 62s to 63s 6d, low
and mid 59s to 60s, damp and washed 57s to 68s 6d per
cwt. Manilla was in increased request privately, and the
sales since Friday are 5,000 bags, nearly all at 19s
per cwt.

- POREIOM—There has been more activity in the foreign
Sugar market ; importers manifest firmness, and none of
any description has been brought to public sale. For
yellow Havannah there has been a much better
demand, and a large business has been trans-
a2ted at prices rather above those of last Tuesday.
This afternoon there was no public sale of Foreign
Sugar ; by private contract several transactions were
prevented by importers asking rather higher rates ; the
market has a firm appearance.
31oLassas.—West India was rather cheaper, but the
purchases made have been extensive, amounting to 450
puns at 20s to 24s per cwt for low to good quality; there
have been further arrivai.i. East India i'ale at 145
to 16.3 per cwt.

COCOA.—West India has been sought after, and full
rates offered, but there is little on offer in the private
market, and none has been brought to public sale ; prices
have a firm appearance. Foreign has been sought after,
and the parcels sold were at firm rates.
COFFEE.—Although importers of West India have
been more inclined to sell, and submitted to a reduction
on previous rates of 2s per cwt, still the trade have ope-
rated with much caution, and the quantity brought for-
ward has proved more than sufficient for their necessi-
ties. The public sales went off with heaviness, Jamaica
good middling at 955, middling 82s to 85s, low middling
75s to 80s, fine ordinary 63s to 725, fine ordinary 59s to
61s 6d, good ordinary 54s to 58s, ordinary 50s to
525, and triage 31s to 48s per cwt. East India
has not been much inquired for by shippers or the home
trade, still holders show firmness, and supply the market
sparingly. Ceylon, at auction good ordinary pale at 575,
low middling bold palish coloury Plantation kind 755,
fine ordinary bold pale coloury 66s to 675, pea berry
80s, and triage 50s per cwt, being the former worth, and
merchants are not inclined to press sales, although
there is a great increase in the stock as compared with
that of last year, and prices much higher than they were
at that period. Of Bengal 28 bags at 4d per lb were of-
fered at auction, sound was taken in at 57s for pale,
rather broken, sea damaged, however, sold at 51s 6d,
ditto and repacked 45s per cwt. Of other East India
sorts none has been brought to public sale, and the busi-
ness transacted privately has been extremely limited
This afternoon there was no public sale of any descrip-
tion of Coffee, and the purchases made privately were
extremely limited in all sorts ; Ceylon of good ordinary
quality, however, could not generally be obtained under
57s per cwt. Mocha could only be disposed of on lower
terms. Of Foreign Coffee some parcels are offering at
easier terms.

TEA.—importers am more inclined to realise, and
several parcels have suddenly been declared for public
competition. To-day 1,016 pkgs of Assam Tea were
offered at public sale, and nearly all disposed of ; Con-
gou at 10d to 2s 9d, chiefly at is to is 7d. Souchong
fetched 2s to 3s Id, low mid, and Pekoe 2s 4id to 3s
lid per lb. In the private market there was little busi-
ness done in any sort. The trade waiting for the auc-
tions of 10,000 pkgs, declared for to-morrow.
SPICES —Prices are net so firm fur Jamaica Ginger,
and the public sales of 185 pkgs went at a decline on
former rates of 5s to lOs per cwt, low to fine quality
selling at 31 lOs to 11/ 13s per cwt. This afternoon
sales of Cassia Lignea were made privately at is to 2s
per cwt advance on the rates of the last public
sales. Of Cinnamon small parcels have been
sold at prices rather above those that prevailed
towards the close of the last quarterly auctions.
RUM, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—FOr Jamaica pre-
vious improved rates are fully sustained, and a good
business has been transacted to supply home and export
orders • the operations are three hundred puns, at
35 10d to 4s 6d for mid to good quality 30 to
36 per cent 0. P.: of fine and high flavoured
sorts there are scarcely any in the market at present,
and they are much wanted. Leewards at 2s 5d to 2s 5d
proof strength, and good brown ditto 2s 6d per gallon.
Calcutta at 2s 3d to 2s 3i-cl proof with certificate. Deme-
rara 3s 2d to 33 6d for good and fine. Of Jamaica the
arrivals are large since this day week, but of
Leeward Island small. For common sorts of
Brandy prices are kept up by the short supply.
Cognac best brands of the vintage of 1838, hhds 5s 2d,
puns 5s ; 1839, hhds 58, puns 4s 10d ; 1840, hhds 4s I Id,
puns 4s 9d ; 1841, hhds 4s 10d, puns 4s 8d ; 1842, !Ads
4s 7d, puns 4s sd, and mid to good mid 3s 4d to 4s per
gallon. Geneva is not so much wanted for shipping,
Is 10d is the value ; of fine fit for duty prices are steady at
2s 6d to 3s 6d. English Corn Spirits lOs 4d per gall, cash.
To-day a good demand existed for Leeward Island and
Calcutta Rum ; sales of the former were made at 2s 5d
proof, and the latter at 2s 3d per gallon. Jamaica was
not so much in request, and there is a large quantity of
mid qualities on the market ; however, holders generally
are not inclined to take lower rates, as arrivals are nearly
all in for the season.

RlCE.—Holders of Bengal show firmness, and have
refrained from offering any at auction ; by private con-
tract there has been a much better demand, and the
rates paid are rather above those previously quoted.
To-day a good demand prevailed by private contract for
Bengal and middling white was not to be purchased
under 11s per cwt ; but at auction the sound of I,ooo'
bags was taken in at 12s to 12s 6d for fine bold clean
white, being above the value ; a few lots of sea damaged,
were however sold at 11s for first class, 103 for second
ditto ; and 8s per cwt for third ditto.
FRUIT.-445 to 47s is the value of Patras, and 38s to
41s per cwt for Zante and Cephalonia. New Muscatel
Raisins have been sold, boxes in layers at 955, half-
ditto 100 s, and quarter ditto 120 s per cwt. Valentia
Raisins are much wanted. In other sorts of Fruit
scarcely anything has been done.
SALTPETRE.—Importers of rough are not inclined to
submit to any further reduction in prices, and none has'
been offered at auction ; privately, however, there has not
been much business transacted ; we quote low 23s 6d to
245, middling 24s 6d to 255, good 25s 6d to 265, and fine,
26s 6d to 27s per cm ; rather under these rates, there
are, however, some orders in the market. English.
Refitted is not much wanted, 29s to 29s 6d per cwt is the
value.

INDloo.—With the exception of small parcels of East
India taken for the Russian market, there has been little
business transacted ; prices however remain firm, and
there are no sellers but at prices equal to those of the
last quarterly sale.
TALLow.—lmporters of Russian are not inclined to
submit to lower rates, but at present there is only a
limited c'mand on the spot at 41s to 41s 3d for old,
and 41s 6d to 41s 9d per cwt for New 13. Y. Candle.
For delivery in the last three months in the
year the price asked is 41s 9d per cwt, but few con•
tracts have been entered into. South American has
sustained its former worth, and 502 pkgs at auction
fetched 34s 6d to 40s for common to fine; and very dark
and soft 29s 6d per cwt. Of Town Tallow the market
has been again cleared at 40s 6d to 41s per cwt nett
cash; there is not a large quantity being produced.
OILS.—For common descriptions of Fish Oils prices
rule firm, and a good demand has prevailed by private
contract at 34/5s to 341 15s for pale Seal, and 331 lOs
to 341 for Cod ; 60 tuns of Southern at auction fetched
301 10s to 3215 s per tun. Sperm Oil is still wanted, and
previous high rates are well sustained.
Linseed Oil an extensive business was transacted at 24s
6d to 24s 9d per cwt on the spot, and the market,has a
firm appearance. Rape Oil firm at 36s to 36s 6d for
pale, and 35s to 35s 6d per cwt for brown. Cocoa Nut Oil
at auction went at 261 15s to 271. Palm, good and fine,
at 26s to 27s 6d per cwt. Of Olive many parcels hare
been disposed of. Gallipoli at 441 to 454 Spanish 41/
to 431; the value of Barbary is 391 to 401 per tun ;
but the.quantity here is still small. Of American Lard
Oil some parcels sold, but not at better prices.

NEWMARKET IIRST OCTOBER MEETING.
The match between Mania and Caster is postponed t 0
Friday in the Second October Meeting.

HOP INTELLIGENCE.
MAIDSTONE.—The hops in Mid Kent are going. 4
with the red mould; in some gardens it is getting
very bad, and they want picking. It will make the.
very best samples more valuable. The hops called
Colegates keep by far the best this year. The pick"
ing will not close this week. We shall have very few
fine in colour ; there will be some very good bags.
EAST FARLEIGH.—The hops are, as usual in this
parish, very good, but in almost every case they3ega
to come down short of what was expected.
BRENCHLEr.—IIop-picking is favourably progress'
ing in this vicinity, and if the weather continues file'
will last ten days or a fortnight from this time. lue
quality and crop are equally good. We hear of 11°
sales of Brenchley hops at present. Our gorres-
pondent says—" You have heretofore reminded yar
friends of the propriety of keeping a tub of water
handy to their oast-houses. This is customary here,
by which fires have been extinguished when first di
covered.".

HurtsT-GREEN.---The accounts from most of our
hop planters is, that the hops came down much faster
than was expected, many grounds not producing °ye
cwt. per acre, and in general of a very inferior qualitt
Some grounds, that have not been affected by the
blight, will produce very good samples. The duty
130,0001. is thought much too high by our most av
perienced men.
HORSMuNDEN.—Picking in this parish is going 11,
rapidly, and some few small planters have finished• t;
the weather proves favourable it will be nearly ant
this week. The shortness of the fall may still be
tributed to the winds, notwithstanding they weer
well, and are of good quality. 'Jur correspondent tidal--;
As respects prices, it has been said in former years tu,11.,
the planters have it all in their own hands. That bell's
the case, how is it now? Supposing the mouldy and di
eased samples of the weak districts•to contain 50,000
the duty, there is only 80,000 left of sound good h°l39
fit to brew India ale, &c. These, added together
make nearly 30,000 short of a year's consumPti°;"
Not to "spoil a ship for a pennyworth of tar,
TM
be applied with as good a reason to not spoiling
hogshead of beer, good and strong, for a shilling;
the uttermost cost pricy would not be more than 2".
per gallon, at a good, fair, remunerating price to th.!
planter. I hope that those who can hold back will
take this argument into consideration.
TICEHURST.—The hop picking is brought to sell:
on several farms hi this parish. The general opine of
is that it commenced too soon, as the hops are 11,°,1
fully ripe, in consequence of which several nersl:4',
who have not finished have delayed for a few days/ 5

BATTLE.—The crop here is decidedly short ever' is
the small estimate at which it was put; the picking
finished.
BURWASH.—As the hop-picking proceeds, we all
as we last week anticipated, the crops in nearly ti,
our plantations considerably less than they were elm
mated at previously to its commencement.

weights, too, are not so good, generally, as they some
last week, more than 70 bushels having been, 41,,,t,
instances, required to the cwt. We have beard,si

71. Picking will be finished this week.

EAST HOATHLY.—Hop-picking is now in fa.l the
in this and the neighbouring parishes ; they for me
' most part come down shockingly bad, with s,
exceptions, as some few plantations will prove to ot,
fine average crop. With regard to weight they

pretty well to the scale.

quality, yet in quantity they will rather exceed

FARNHAM.—Hop-picking is now at an end 11 ev

their expectations. A few pockets have been 5°

MAYFIELD.—The hop-picking will be brogg bird,
close this week, and the crop will fall short one-t
The hops that are picked fully supported the c,2,t'ati
lations of the supposed deficiency—not one s°lloole
instance but must verify this. There have been sh 55
sales effected at 61. per cwt., and that is as ranch or
can be expected, the samples being very imP'eeahlf
indifferent as to quality ; but they weigh remarks 45
well, requiring not more in some instances than
bushels to the cwt.—some years it wants 80. believe
PEMBURT.—Though, upon the whole, we .e now
that we shall average last year's growth, yet , the
seems a good deal more damage had been donese,

in the more exposed parts of the parish; in others ell
hops came down in excellent order, and quite as
