MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-(FRIDAY.)
Very moderate supplies of English Wheat have come to
hand, since Monday. The demand for that article was steady,
and previous rates were firmly supported. Foreign Wheat
moved off freely, and full rates were obtained in every in-
stance. Very little Barley was on show, yet the inquiry for
it was trifling, at late rates. The Malt trade was slow ;
while in the value of all other grain, no variation occurred.

Although the supply of beasts was only moderate, we have
to report a very dull inquiry for Beef, and Monday's quota-
tions were barely supported. The numbers of Sheep were
again small, while the sale for them was active, and the prices
had an upward tendency. In Calves very little was doing,
and in some instances the rates were a trifle lower. The Pork
trade was firm, and the currencies were steadily supported.
Milch Cows were held at from 161 to 19/ 55 each.

BRAZILIAN MAIL.

FALMOUTH, FEB. 14.—The Express packet, Lieutenant
Herrick, arrived last night with the Brazils mail ; the dates
are—Pernambuco 14th, and Bahia' 20th November, and Rio
Janeiro 24th December. Freight, about 20,0001.
'The Petrel packet, Lieutenant Creser, with the outward
mails, was entering Rio when the Express sailed.
Ships of war at Rio Janeiro—Her Majesty's ships Curagoa,
Crescent, and Cockatrice ; American frigates Columbus and
Savannah, and corvette Warren. Brazilian frigate Para-
guassee.
Ships of war at Monte Video on the 18th of November—
Her Majesty's ship Alfred, Commodore Purvis, steamer Gor-
gon, Pearl, Daphne, Racer, Ardent, American frigate Co-
lumbus, Commodore Turner, and Enterprise brig, French
frigates La Gloire and Atalante, corvette Arethuse, brig
Dupetit Thouars and DaSsas.
General Rivera had issued some spirited addresses to his
soldiers, and was proceeding with his army, which he was re-
cruiting, with all possible rapidity towards Monte Video, for
the relief of that place ; a collision with Oribe was conse-
quently expected in a very few days, when something deci-
sive would most probably take place.

ARRIVAL 01, THE PENINSULAR MAILS.-SOUTH-
AmPToN, FEB. 14.—The Oriental Company's steam-packet
the Montrose, Captain Lewis, arrived in the docks this morn-
ing at half-past eight; from Gibraltar, and landed her-mails
in time to go up by the nine o'clock mail-train. She left
Gibraltar on the 4th instant, Cadiz the sth, Lisbon the 7th,
Oporto the Bth, and Vigo the 9th. She brings a full cargo
of fruit and passengers. The Montrose experienced very
thick NVeather during the latter part of the voyage. The
Oriental steamer, Captain Soy, has arrived from Alexandria,
and now lies at the Brother Bank. She is expected to be
released from quarantine to-morrow, and will land her pas-
sengers here, sixteen in number. The Pacha, Capt. Wilson,
will take out the Peninsular, Gibraltar, and Malta mails, to-
morrow, at 3 P.M. Very great uneasiness is manifested here
at the non-arrival of the Royal West India mail-packet, the
Avon; which was due at this port on the 4th instant. It is
supposed that being short of fuel she has been obliged to put
into some distant port for recoaling. The well-known lec-
turer, Mr. George Thompson, who contested the last election
of this borough with Lord Nugent as his colleague, is a pas-
senger by the Oriental, and is expected to make a stay in
this town for a few days.

COMMUNICATION WITH AMERICA.
Sir VALENTINE BLAKE gave notice of his intention to
bring under the consideration of the House a motion for a
Select Committee to inquire into the expediency of promoting
a more speedy communication between this country and Ame-
rica, by establishing steam carriages in connection with the
grand canal across Ireland, and thence by steamer across the
Atlantic.

Sir R. PEEL was understood to state that the discussion o
the question would be premature on the present occasion.
ARMY IN IRELAND.

Lord CLEMENTS gave notice that on Tuesday next he
should move for a return of the salaries and stations of every
officer who had been sent to Ireland on particular or
secret service. Also for a return of the expense

1843 ; also, for a return of the expense of erecting barracks

nected with the registration of arms in Ireland.

absent at the moment when the question was put, I did not
feel called upon to address your Lordships, but had any
charges been made upon us in respect to legal points in the
conduct of the recent trials, I should certainly have been ready
to meet them. That is the explanation I have to give.

THE MOORS.

Grouse shooting commenced on Monday last, but
the wet weather of Sunday night and Monday morn-
ing prevented many of the sportsmen from going out
till nearly noon, when the moors were so wet as to
be unfavourable for the sport. The birds were
numerous and strong, and during the week very ex-
tensive destruction has been effected on the Yorkshire
moors. Leeds has been amply supplied, and yester-
day (and two or three days previously) grouse was
sold at six shillings a brace.—Leeds Mercury.
The Duke of Devonshire, on Monday, the 12th
instant, shot twenty brace of moor game in the Broad
Park, near Barden Tower. His Grace has had a
party of friends staying with him.
We hear from the moors, in the northen part of our
own, county, that the sport on the 12th was not so
good this year as the last, owing to the fact that the
young birds are quite strong, and that there having
been a shower on the previous night they were dis-
turbed, so that sportsmen could scarcely get within
fifty yards of them.—Derbyshire Courier.
The Aberdeen and Inverness papers give glowing
accounts of the sport in the north ; with which letters
before us (Ayr Advertiser) from the moor grounds
at Eaglesham, Barr, Portmark at the head of Loch
Doon, and the Stewartry of Kircudbri.ght, quite co-
incide. Saturday vouchsafed splendid weather for
sportsmen, with their dog-carts, keepers, and dogs
jogging along the hilly roads to quarters, and and thou
the
grounds were wet from =cent rain, the coveys sat
well, and what is still more to the point they were
numerous, and the birds strong on the wing. une
of our accounts states that two parties who met at
their match on hilly moors near Castle Douglas, at
two P.m., had not seen a single " pheeper," although
one party with two guns had bagged fourteen brace
since nine A.m., and the other with a single gun ten

THE AGRICULTURAL BALL.

One of the most brilliant—indeed, we may say, one of
the most agreeable, and in every way unexceptionable—
public balls given in the city for many years, took place
last night in the Theatre Royal, under the management

Among the company were the Earl of Leinster, the
Marquis of Kildare, the Marquis of Downshire, Lord
Castlemaine, Lord Crofton, the Chief Baron, Sir Percy

THE QUEEN—THE CORPORATION.
On Thursday there was a special meeting of the Cor-
poration, held for the purpose of adopting a congratula-
tory address to her Majesty on the birth of a Prince.
The Lord Mayor presided.
The address was adopted with much enthusiasm, and
it was arranged that it should be forwarded to Sir James
Graham, for presentation to her Majesty.
A Privy Council sat in Dublin Castle on Thursday,
his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, the Bishop of
Meath and Kildare, the Master of the Rolls, the Chief
Baron, and ex-Justice Moore were present. It was
ordered that the Archbishops and Bishops now in town
do prepare a form of prayer and thanksgiving to
Almighty God for her Majesty's safe delivery of a Prince,
and that such form of prayer and thanksgiving be used
in all churches and chapels in Ireland, upon Sunday, the
18th of August instant, or the Sunday after the respec-
tive ministers of such churches and chapels shall receive
the same.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

The details given in I;fetter by a Correspondent, relative
to a police case he ?nd decided on the 18th of last
month, are no doubt of a very painful character, and
must excite general sympathy for the unfortunate
woman, but it is difficult to give advice in such matters.
If she really is afraid of violence, however, from the
party when he is released from prison, let her appear
before a magistrate and make oath to the fact, and he
will protect her. The decision of which he complains,
strange to say, is of .yery common occurrence, while
many persons are tia:nspoyted for much smaller crimes.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.

To-night will be the last night of the Opera, and Mr.
Lumley, determined that the season shall end as brilliantly
as it was begun, and has continued, has concentrated as it
were, into one focus, for this the last evening, all the gems
ofthe season. First, we are to have the Barbiere with Grisi,
Fornasari, and Lablache. Then Un bat sous Louis XI V.
with the two Fannys Ellsler and Cerito—then Moriani,
the first tenor in the world in the last scene of Lucia—
the Fanny Ellsler and Perrot in La Esmeralda—then the
last act of La Cenerentola, with Favanti as La Ceneren-
tola, Fornasari as Dandini, Lablache, glorious Lablache,
as the Magnifico, and that promising singer, Corelli, as
Ramiro ; to conclude with selections from Ondine and
Alma, those two graceful creations of the fascinating
Cerito. In the course of the evening " God save the
Queen" will be sung by the united operatic force of the
company ; and to hear the national anthem given as it
will be given to-night, will be one of the greatest treats
that can fall to the lot of a lover of music to enjoy. To-
night concludes the present most deservedly successful
season. Mr. Lumley adopts the only method of com-
manding success—he shows the public that he deserves it.

SOUTHWARK COURT OF RE-
QUESTS-(THIS DAY.)

DISCHARGE OF PRISONERS IN EXECUTION UPON JUDG-
MENTS FROM THIS COURT UNDER LORD BROUGHAM'S
BILL.
This morning a very full attendance of the Commission-
ers of this Court was held in the Committee-room, for the
first time since Lord Brougham's Act for the Amend-
ment of the Laws relating to Insolvency, Bankruptcy,
and Execution, came into operation, to take into consi-
deration the powers vested in the Commissioners by the
provisions of the Act to discharge persons under execu-
tion upon judgments from that Court, and also to con-
sider the various applications for discharge by prisoners
in custody upon such executions in Horsemonger•lane
and the Borough Clink prisons. After considerable de-
liberation, the Commissioners, acting under the
advice of their clerks, Messrs. Drew and Meymott,
determined to grant the applications in all
the cases in which the petitions presented
had been accompanied by a certificate of the gaoler that
the petition was the petition of the party presenting it,
and had been duly signed ; in seven cases orders of dis-
charge were made without any fee, and in the other
cases the petitions were sent back to be amended.
Mr. Keene, the humane Governor of Horsemonger-lane
Prison, was in attendance, and, with a kindness and ala-
crity characteristic of this gentleman, undertook to ob-
tain the evidence required, and enable the whole of
the applicants to be discharged in the course of the
day. 'The Commissioners also determined that all
applications for discharge under the Act should
be made by petition, to be presented on a Court-
day, e., on Tuesday or Friday, stating the
amount for which the prisoner was in custody, and at
whose suit, accompanied by the certificate or attestation
of the gaoler, that the petition was the voluntary peti-
tion of the prisoner, and had been duly signed by him
or her ; the reason for so doing was, we understood,
that in several instances, at other Courts, petitions
have been presented in the name of, and against the
wishes of persons who had been in prison nearly the
whole of the time deemed sufficient to satisfy the debt ;
' the consequence of which will be that the plaintiff, after
incarcerating his debtor for a number of days, can now
issue an execution against his goods.

The splendid freehold residence at Kemp Town
(vis- a. vis to the Duke of Devonshire), which was
purchased last year, when in carcase only, by Mr.
George Robins, is just completed, and, from the great
taste and style that is conspicuous, both within and
without, has become indeed a prominent feature to
this distinguished auxiliary town to Brighton. We
really find it difficult to do justice to the extraordinary
tact that is conspicuous everywhere. The windows
are all of large plate glass, which materially aids the
illusion. The architect and the builder both seem
to have contended strenuously for the ascendancy ;
and Reynolds, the renowned builder of Kensington
villas, at Bayswater, says he has won the prize; one
thing is qaite certain, that it has left all the mansions
of this scale in Kemp Town at a great distance—even
the Duke of Devonshire's must now hide its diminished
head. It has also the advantage over all others in
the situation—that it commands a view almost
interminable, extending to Portsmouth and the Isle
of Wight, with Worthing and Shoreham, and the
vast Ocean in the intermediate space. It possesses
also a very agreeable feature in having a westerly
view ; it is in no way exposed to the east wind, and
is entitled by the rules and regulations of a committee
of management to free access, at all times and at all
seasons, to the splendid grounds of Kemp Town, as
well as unlimited right to parade the Terrace
Walks to the sea, whenever it pleases the possessor.
We have inquired, and we learn that Mr. Robins has
no idea, as was generally reported, of occupying it
himself. It is erected with the sole view to let it.
There is abundant accommodation in the stable de-
partment for four or eight horses. Two double
coach-houses ; and over each range are four rooms
for the male portion of the establishment, by
which they are kept aloof from inconveniencing
the family. By the way, we were so struck
with the ensemble, that we took the trouble
to put down a little memorandum of its internal
capabilities. It is by no means so large a mansion as
it appears from its outward form ; but it has by far
the most imposing exterior of any house in Brighton.
The conservatory, opening on to the balcony,
with its elegant and tasteful viranda, seems
to leave all its contemporaries far away. The
rent required seems unusually moderate-250
guineas a year, to include four stalls and double
coach house. It is in perfect order to be imme-
diately furnished and occupied. There are magnifi-
cent chimney-pieces which adorn all the principal
rooms, with stoves throughout, of a superior kind ;
and a kitchen apparatus worths, of Monsieur Ude.
It seems to have been completed. at the very nick of
time, as there are no houses upon this scale to be had
just now at any price.

HEREFORD.

Nov. I.—The election of town councillors took
place in this city to-day, when six Liberals were
elected withuut opposition ; so that the whole of our
body corporate are Liberals, and have been so for two
years past. Our Members for the city are Liberals,
and also free-traders.
HERTFORD.
_

The following is the result of the municipal elections
in Hertford :—Tories—Mr. William Tisoe, 259 ; Mr.
Edward Lawrence, 223 ; Mr. George Folkard, 219 ;
Mr. George Ludlow. 208. Liberals—Mr. Young
Crawley, 202 ; Mr. John Jasper Gripper, 198 ; Mr.
James Hancock, 155 ; Mr. William Pollard, 145.
The Tories were consequently elected, but a pretest
was handed in, before the commencement of the
polling, against the nomination of Mr. Ludlow, on
the ground that, although his name was upon the
Burgess list, it had no business to be there, as he
was not a bona fide occupier, and that his claim as
such had been recently rejected by the Revising
Barrister.
