FREIGHTS.

Arrivals having of late been far from numerous, and there
being at present but few vessels available for Great Britain,
rates have advanced to our quotations, which will, we think,
be fully maintained, should arrivals continue on a moderate
scale for a short time.

Opium—We believe there have been no extensive transac.
tions in this drug since our last, and prices have kept re.
markably steady. Benares, however, which was compare.
tively lower than usual, has advanced about 40 rupees, while
Patna remains as before. The stock in the Company's Go-
down on the evening of the sth was as follows, viz. :—Patna,
1,390 chests ; Benares, 824 chests ; total, 2,214 chests. The
second Government sale of the season is advertised for the
10th inst., when 1,800 chests of Patna and 850 Bonaree will
be brought forward.
Cotton—There has been scarcely anything doing in this
staple for some time past, and shipments to China are quite
unimportant, being in all January only 1,257 bales, and from
the Ist inst. up to date 100 bales.
Rice—The continued high ruling of freights (with every
prospect of a continuance) has at last somewhat checked
purchases for Great Britain, but shipments still go forward
freely without alteration in price, and from the Ist inst. up to
date amount to 14,000 maunds. We have of late noticed
considerable shipments to the Red Sea, Bombay, Gulfs, and
other parts, which in January were as follows, viz. :—80m-
bay,17,159 bags ' • Red Sea, 26,261 bags; Gulfs, 13,949 bags;
Bourbon, 10,000 bags ; and other ports, 15,000 bags.
For Mauritius a moderate amount of business continues to
be done, but from the let inst. up to date the exports amotmt
to only 400 maunds.
Oil Seeds—ln Linseed we have not heard of any transac•
tions for Great Britain, but the extensive purchases for
America have caused prices to advance somewhat. No Sales
of mustardseed have been reported lately, but we notice,_ a
shipment to London. Exports from the let'inst. up to date
have been as follows :
Great Britain. France. North America.
Maunds. Maunds. Melinda.
Linseed
Mustardsced

Jute—Good jute continues to sell at about 1-12 to 1-14 per
maund, or 8-8 to 9 per bale; and shipments go forward to
Great Britain to a fair extent at 41. ss. to 4/.los. per ton.
Exports from the Ist iust. up to date amount to 9,893
maunds.
Safflower, Munjeet, Ginger, and Turmeric—Saillower, no.
thing doing; munjeet, without report of sale ; ginger, in
moderate demand fur America ; turmeric, in fair demand
for France.
Exports from Ist inst. up to date are as follows, viz.:—
Ginger, North America, 129 maunds ; turmeric, Fraxice, 902
muds ; North America, 101 maunds.

THIRD EDITION OF « THE SUN."

Ks have received many complaintsfrom Subscribers who are frequently
disappointed in not receiving the Third Edition. The fault rests en-
tirely with the News-agent who serves them, and who thereby not only
injures the paper, but does injustice to his customer. This injustice is
still further aggravated by an extra charge of a hajfpenny (the Post-
office fee) being made for NOT supplying the latest or Third Edition.
This Edition contains the Latest News: Parliamentary Debates up to a
Quarter to Seven—The " Gaiettes" on Tuesday and Friday, together
uith the " Prices Current" of all the Markets, as well as Officia
Prices of Shares in Radical's, ,Lc. &c.—The Beling at Tattersall's on
Monday and Thursday—The latest (closing) Prices of the Funds—
The Proceedings in Railway Committees up to the close—and all other
news arriving in London after three o'clock in the afternoon, when the
Second or Evening Edition goes to press.
In distant parts of the camtry, the Third Edition contains news TWELVE
HOURS IN ADVANCE, a matter of importance to those who want early
intelligence.
In those places "here the evening mail arrives in the middle of the night,
Ole " MORNING SUN," containing ALL the Debates, &c. &c., will
answer best, and Subscribers can suit themselves accordingly.
Respectable Agents will always supply the proper paper; but where any
wilful neglect is experienced, we recommend parties to write to " The
Sun" office, 112, Strand, where prompt attontion will be paid to their
representations.

On Thursday the King of the French, attended by
General Ayinard, the Count de Strada, and two orderly
officers, left the Palace of the Tuileries for Versailles,
stopping in his way at the Chapelle St. Ferdinand and
St. Cloud. At six o'clock his Majesty returned to the
Tuilerit s.
M. Gautier, Peer of France, has been appointed Pre-
sident of the Read Commission of the Invalides, in
place of Baron Portal. Another vacancy as member of
the Commission has been filled up by the appointment of
Count Beugnot, Peer of France.
The Imaum of Muscat has presented to the King of the
French four magnificent Arab stallions of the purest
blood and of great value. The King, in order to keep
up the breed in France, immediately ordered four mares
of the same breed and value to be purchased for him on
the spot, and brought to France at the same time. In-
structions to this effect were transmitted to the French
Consul at Zanzibar.
A camp of 30,000 men is to assemble next summer in
the neighbourhood of Bordeaux. The Duke d'Aumale
will take the command. The Duke de Nemours will re-
view the troops, and some other members of the Royal
Family will be present to see the evolutions.
The spectators at the promenade of Longchamps on
Friday, says one of the Paris journals, were most numer-
ous, as the weather was mild and the sun at length made
his appearance ; but the equipages worth looking at
were very few, the new fashions by no means remark-
able, and the crowd would have had nothing to see had
not General Tom Thumb condescended to honour with
his tiny presence and proportionate vehicle the avenue
of the Champs-Elysees ; the hero of the day was es-
corted by a detachment of Horse Municipal Guardv.
Mr. Walker and his confederates have appealed to
the Court of Cassation against the judgment pronounced
against them by the Cour Royale upon the charge of
cheating at cards.
The Swiss Diet assembled on the 18th inst. to discuss
the reports of the Committee on the three projects
submitted to it on the sth. Contrary to the general
expectation, the Diet could not come to any final resolu•
tion, for there was not a sufficient majority present for
either of the three propositions.
The Russian Government, says the Consaaionnel, has
banished from Georgia all the Italian Capucine monks,
because they refused to admit the supremacy of the Pa-
triarch.
The Akbar of Algiers, of the 13th inst., states that
the clearing of the ruins of the late disastrous explosion
was still going on. On the 11th, the labourers in this
sad duty discovered a party of mine soldiers, who were
crushed while playing at carols. Some of them still held
the cards in their hands.

Lord Seymour sailed from Malta early in the present

LONDON. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1845

The meeting of the Anti-Corn-law League, held at Man-
chester on Tuesday, was a proof, if any proof could be wanted,
of the sttong feeling against the duty on corn which pervades
the inhabitants of that great mart of industry and the populuus
regions which surround it. It was attended by at least
seven thousand persons of both sexes, and, as was justly
said by Mr. COBDEN, might fairly claim pre-eminence over
all:others of the kind, in its numbers, intelligence, and power.
When we look at the state of the country, at the deficient
crops of almost every description, the rise in the price of pro-
visions, and the sad winter prospect of the labouring classes,
we may'only feel surprise that the assembly was not larger,
that the language used by the speakers was not more strong,
and the excitement against the obnoxious impost on the staff
of life was not more visibly manifested. But these very cir-
cumstances only afford the greater hope and consolation.
The people of England are not easily roused to mutiny
against their rulers—they are not carried from their
purpose by an ephemeral passion, nor inclined to dis-
turb the Government, so long as they can place any con-
fidence in its good intentions. For reasons such as
these they wait only fir a demonstration on the
part of the Cabinet, and every report furnished,
either by the opponents or the advocates of
the corn-laws, leads to the conviction that many days cannot
elapse before the country shall know the whole secret.
The people, therefore, wait patiently; and we only say
let the Government beware, lest they try this
patience too long, and rou•.e not only our working
population, but the whole of the middle classes,
to a state of excitement which may be directed against
other monopolies than those in favour of the landowners.
There are many other heavy and unfair taxes, of which they
have reason to complain. Tea and sugar, almost as ne-
cessary as bread for the great bulk of the people,
are enormously taxed, and these taxes fall chiefly
on the industrious and ill• paid labourer. Why should the
West India interest, to whom the enormous sum of twenty
millions sterling has been paid as a set-off for all claims, be
still a:lowed exclusive privileges, and draw out of
the pockets of the people sums even still more enor-
mous ? Or why should tea be taxed a hundred
per cent., that tax, too, falling almost entirely upon
the unrepresented classes? The sums contributed in taxes
like these to the Exchequer by the laned proprietors is a
mere trifle. The question, in fact, will not bear examination,
and we cannot therefore for a moment doubt the course
which Sir ROBERT PEEL will take as rega7ds the present
exigency. With the exception of France, all the States on
the Continent—despotic as well as free—have already '
made provision against famine ; they have thrown
open their ports ; they have issued ordonnances
for admitting vessels carrying human food into their
harbours free of port dues. Kings and Emperors
have exhibited a paternal sympathy for their people, and

EXTENSIVE SALE OF PRINCE ALBERT'S LIVE
Sxocs.—WINDSOR, WEDNESDAY.—The annual sale of Prince Albert's

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON, NEWBURY, AND BATH DIRECT (KENNET
AND AVON COMPANY).
SWINDON, TuasDAY.—A meeting of the proprietors of the Kennet
and Avon Canal Company and projected London, Newbury, and
Bath Direct Railway, took place this afternoon, at the Queen's
Hotel, Swindon station of the Great Western Railway, pursuant to
requisition, for the purpose of receiving, considering, and deter-
mining the course to be taken with regard to a report intended to
be laid before them as to the propriety of adopting the suggestion
of Mr. Walker, the engineer, to construct the proposed London,
Newbury, and Bath Direct Railway, so
.as to maintain the naviga-
tion, and to take such. steps with regard to the present position of
the undertaking as should seem desirable.
T. R. WARD, Esq., in the absence of Admiral Dundas,
the Chairman of the Company, was called onto preside. He said
the subject they had met t• consider was one of the greatest interest
to the western counties, and he sincerely regretted the absence of
their excellent Chairman, Admiral Dundas, who was compelled to
leave England for the Continent, owing to the serious illness of
Mrs. Dundas. The purposes for which they had assembled were
'to consider the report of a committee on the suggestion of Mr.
Walker, the engineer, with reference to the construction of the
London. Newbury, and Bath Direct Railway, and at the same time
to preserve the navigation of the Kennet and Avon Canal. As
the report contained the principal topics which would have to be
discussed, it would be unnecessary for him to offer any comments
upon the subject.
Mr. MERRIMAN then read the following report :
" The Select Sub-Committee appointed by the Committee of Ma-
nagement of the affairs and business of the Company of Proprie-
tors of the Kennet and Avon Canal Navigation, at the meeting at
Marlborough, on the 15th of July last, beg to report to the pro.
proprietors at large—
" That since the special meeting of the proprietors, which was
held at Reading, on the 9.6 th of August last, your Committee
have been making arrangements to apply to Parliament in the en.
suing session for powers to carry into effect the instructions of that
meeting. With this view, the Committee have offered to the pro-
prietors of shares in the Kennet and Avon Canal two new shares
of 154 each in respect of every old share, and the Committee have
the gratification of stating that this option has in almost all cases
been accepted. Your Committee have also by the issue of such
shares as were declined by the proprietary, and by means of the
small number which remained at the disposal of your Committee,
after allowing two shares for each one old Kennet and Avon share,
raised a capital sufficient for the purposes contemplated.
' " Your Committee beg further to report that Mr. James Walker,
the consulting engineer of the Company, has made a report, in
which he recommends that the line et the canal should not be de-

SINGULAR ACClDENT.—Yestorday morning a loaded
coal.waggon was proceeding down Fleet-street towards Chancery-
lane, when it suddenly fell over sideways in consequence of the
sewer (just completed) bursting in, the mortar not being dry enough.
The ground fell three feet below the level ; the cost of the repair-

MAI?YLEBONE.

BURGLlM—Yesterday Charles Mitchell, alias Darby Kelly,
James Brake, alias JVouldcr, and John Grogan, all of them con-
victed thieves, were charged with having been concerned in a bur-
glary at the house of Mr. Clarke, cheesemonger, &c., No. 6, S ilia-
hu ry.street, Portman•niarket.
It appeared from the evidence that on the same morning, about
three o'clock, the prisoners were taken into custody by Sergeant
Harrent, and other officers, for a murderous attack upon a man
named Francis, in consequence of information received with re-
gard to a barglary at the house above alluded to. The prisoners
were searched, when a coNor French coin and a brass imitation
penny piece were found on Grogan and Burke. These pieces had
been stolen from Mr. Clarke's house, an entry into which nad been
made by a back window. Three tills, all of them empty, were left
upon the counter, and it was further stated that numerous articles
of silver plate had been carried off. A constable of tte D division
stated that a few hours prior to the robbery being discovered the
prisoners were seen together in the immediate vicinity of Mr.
Clarke's premises.
Inspector Brown said, that in the course of a few days the
officers would, in 'all probability, obtain some information as to
the stolen plate ; and, in order to afford time for inquiry, the pri-
soners were remanded till Tuesday next. _

ItAtcrr DISTILLATION.—YcAerday ITillam Caleb Thomas was
charged with the illicit distillation of spirits, for which offe,.,ce he
had, under 7th and Bth Geo. IV., cap. 53, sec. 32, rendered him•
self amenable to a heavy penalty.

Frederick Pargeter, an officer of Excise, deposed that on the
previous evening, between five arid six o'clock, he entered the
house, No. 2. Payne-place, Kentish-town, the lower part of
which was inhabited by defendant. Witness found in the two
kitchens a forty-five gallon still, containing a quantity of molasses'
wasb, and some spirits had just before bean run off. The two
kitchens were fitted up in such a way as to lead to the supposition
that the illicit trade had been carried on for a long while. The
prisoner, on being given into custody, said that the house he in•
habited belonged t• a beer-shopkeeper in the Newington.road.
The prisoner was fined 301., and in default three months' im-
prisonment.
