[TUF TIMES.]

The intended sale of Indigo- yesterday by the
India Company exhibited a scene very curious
and unprecedented ; and perhaps we might add,
not easily to be explained upo,n any general
whicit govern commercial markets. It,
appears from statements made at this meeting, as
well. as irOtri what had trantwired previously,
thitt thR greater poi lion of ,those, individuals, both
In town sod country, who carry On the indigo
intae, bmi concurred in solicitations to the 'Com-

pony to postpone the 4uarterty sale appointed to
take place yesterday. The Company refus-
ed to comply. The sale came on. Two thou-
sand five hundred chests of indigo were with.
drawn from the market, chiefly by three great
houses. Of three thousand seven hundred
chests which remained, seven hundred only
belonged to the Company ; and on the ap.
pointed moment of the sale commencing, which
was but a quarter of an hour before the regular
time of closing, not a single purchaser was to
be found ! To us, who are not in the secrets of

the trade, the curious part of all this appears to
have been, the apparent unanimity (with one sale
exception) of buyers and sellers, in their desire
to postpone the sale. We have on one side seve-
ral extensive holders of indigo, and on the other
Mr. Christie, who, if we may judge from his argu-
'ments, represented a class of intending pur-
chasers, equally urgent with the Chairman of the
meeting to adjourn the market to some period
when trade should have recovered from its ex-
isting depression. The scarcity, therefore, of
money, and the precarious condition of credit,
were the arguments for this departure from
the regular proceedings of the Company ; and
for one division of the parties interested—that is
to say, for those who had indigo to sell—there
could not be more reasonable grounds on which
to rest their proposal. No sensible snun will, if
he can avoid it, part with his property when the
times are bad. But again, every man who wishes
to purchase will choose a moment of general,
though transient difficulty, and of reduced value,
' for effecting it. We see, however, but a solitary
instance of the operation of this rule in the trans..
actions of yesterday. A Mr. Fosse!, a dyer,
stated that he had come up from Frome to buy,
and would be disappointed, as would his country
friends, by a postponement of the day's business.
This we can understand, though not the inacti-
vity of the, same person when the goods which he
wanted were offered afterwards, and he wbuld
not purchase.

Tl FROST.—The coachmen on the several
roads, particularly on the western and northern
roads,' say, that they do not remember a severer
frost than they experienced on Sunday night and
Monday morning. Those who rernembPr that of
1814, when the Thames was frozen ober, awl
booths raised on the ice, declare that they did
not feel it so severely, it not hav big come
on so suddenly. The houses and trees in the
country had a singular appearance on Mon-
day, owing to the combination of frost stud
fog, the trees, and fronts of houses, and even•
the glass being covered with thick white frelPt,,.
and the glass being no more transparent than
ground-glass. Ilalf the shops in featly of the
country villages were partially opened ; shops
that depended on showing their goods found it
useless to remove alt their shatters, as the thick
frost on the glass rendered it impossible for them
to he seen. The frost has also had a serious ef-
fect on may articles of food. Oysters are not to
hr. obtained ; at least, though a barrel may he
wanted to send into the country, the dealers will a
not warrant them. Many of the butchers, particu-
larly in the suburbs, where the frost of course is
felt more severely than in the metropolis, are,
obliged to keep their shops shut in order to keep
out the frost ; but many of them also carried the
meat into their parlours, and kept it folded up in
cloths round the fires, and unfolded it us their,
customers might come in and require it. The
market gardeners have also felt the severity of
the weather—it has stopped their labours; molar

EMOUNI NG CIIRONICLt.]

We have received another letter from our cor.
respondent T. 13. in support of the existing Corn
Laws•--We are ready to admit to our corre•
spondent, that a change in our Corn Laws would
necessarily be productive of great inconvenience
to the existing race of agriculturists. "That the
whole agricultural tenantry of the kingdom would
be rendered insolvent by such a measure," us he
contends they would, we deem the language of
exaggeration. Four fifths nearly of the land of
England are held at will, and here, as far as rent
is cencerned, there would not be much difficulty.
The chief difficulty would be in the case of lands
held on lease, end in the decrease occasioned ny
reduced prices in the amount of a tenant's
assets, while his debts would remain at their
former amount. We do not wish to dissemble
the amount of evil which so important a change
in the system of this country would occasion,
and nothing but a thorough conviction of the still
greater evil we have to apprehend from an ad.
herenee to the existing Corn Laws, would induce
us to recommend any measure affecting the for-
tunes of a large body of the community. While
we say this, however, we protest against the idea
that a free trade in grain would be attended with
so very extensive a fall in price as our agricul-
turists suppose. The prices here and in the porta
of the Continent could not, it is true, vary much
more than the charge of conveyance from the
One side of the water to the other. But this
equalization would be produced by raising the
price abroad, as well as by lowering the price here.
That it would conduce greatly to the prosperity
of the country—that the price of food, which
enters for so much into the price of labour, should
not differ materially here from the price on the
Continent, cannot be doubted. So long as the
difference is so great as at present, there is the
greatest inducement to remove capital from this
country to the Continent, and indeed the progress
made of late years abroad, in many branches of
industry, in which we excel, has by all accounts
been very great. We are literally giving a pre-
mium to promote the prosperity of the manufac-
titres of our neighbours at the expellee of our
Own.

MOW LE, Dec. 6, 1525.-. Upwards of .900 bales

tained .by commerce in general is ascertained,
speculators will use the same prudence that has
induced them to suspend their operations thus

'lave continued to execute a few orders fur the
supplying of our domestic manufactures. The

Most of the Louisiana and Mississippi piasters
decline at present sending their cotton forward,
preferring to store it in their own warehous:.s.—
Plrom information gathered from the most respect.

crop.of the cotton growing states will fully equal
the quantity of the crop of last year ; and that

of excellent quality.—(Savannah Georgian.)

CITY LIBItAIt Y.

Mr.JoxEe presented a report from the Library Committee,
which stated that they had made considerable progress in the
formation of a library. Amongst other acquisitions they had
collected a considerable number of valuable works relative to
the antiquities, history, laws, manners, and customs of the
city and of the borough of Southwark. An opportunity now
presented itself to the committee of purchasing a set of the
London Gazette down to the; 171. e. The committee were
very desirous to purchase this &lament, which was of great
importance to the city, both in a commercial and historical
point of view, but the funds in the bands of the committee
were insufficient for the purpose. The sum required was AO
guineas.
The Court authorized the Committee to draw upon the Cor•
porarion for the sum required.
Mr. litcx observed, that various remains ofantiquity, which
had from tune to time been discovered in the city, had been dis-
persed for want of a proper place in which to deposit them.
He therefore moved that it should be referred to the Com-
mittee to provide a room adjoining the library, for the reception
of such antiquities as might be found or procured, connected
with the city or the borough of Southwark.—The motion was
agreed to.

INUNDATIONS IN THE SOUTH or FRANCE.

The news from Cate linda and R.oussillon, speak
of the great disasters occasioned in these cent'.
tries by the overflow of the rivers. The same
misfortunes afflict the departments traversed by
the Agont and the Tarn. A port of the depart-
ment of Aude is also said, to have Suffered mach
from the overflow of a little river, celled Argent
Double, the bed of which is dry for the greater
part of the year. The correspondenee front
Bourdeaux has not reached Toulouse for eight
days past, and expresses sent to Langou htie
declared that it wits impossible to proceed
further. The great road of Lower Lao:
guadoc has been greatly damaged by the moult-
dations, and several less important roads have
been rendered impassable. The Garonne, in-
creased with the red %rulers of the Tarn and by
the avalanches which fall into it with astonish-
ing rapidity from the sutnmits of the Pyrenees,
again s overflowed its bunks, on the 6th of this
month, and soon rose to a prodigious elevation ;
in leis than four,and-twenty hours the plains of
Agen and Saint Cyr were totally submerged in
offered the spectacle of a vast sea. The inhabi-
tants of the villages, surprised by the waters in
the night, saved themselves with great difft.
culty ; but all has not escaped the ravages of
the inundation, for the immense bed of the
Garonne was covered with ruin ; stacks of hay
and straw were seen floating down with animals
on them, who bud fled thither for safety. It is
said that houses built in different places along
the bank of the stream have been washed
away by the siolence of the current. At
Agen, the Faubourgs St. Louis and St. An-
tome have been partly inundated ; in the Rue dcs
Chureiliers the water rose to the first floor of the
houses. It Wag
impossible to describe the con-
sternation of the poor inhabitants of that quarter,
who saw the rapid increase of the water. In
these sorrowful circumstances the Mayor of
Ages, has fulfilled the duties of a benevolent
and courageous Magistrate ; in a light boat he
successively went into all the threatened (par-
Wl's, and every where took the measures neces-
sary to insure help to the unfortunate inhabit-
ants. On the Btit a.t about four in the evening
the Garonne began to diminish, at first slowly,
:but in a short time tolerably quick, and it has at
present returned to its bed. The whole of lite
damages which this inundation has caused are ttot
yet known ; but they must have been,consider-
able, and it will no doubt be long before tkey
are; repaired, if the benevolent hand of , our
PrinCes is not• stretched to help the victims of
Ithis scourge.—(Consfittrtionnel.)

Mr. _Monty ti Tit presented a petition from between 40
and LA inhabitants of the above !Mined ward, praying that the
number of the rePresentatives of the ward in the Common
Council might not be increased.
Mr. STEVENS 13id, the petition was opposed to the senti-
ments of the majority of the inhabitants of the ward, Who ear.
nestly desired that the number of their representatives should
be augmented so as to bear some proportion to the numerical
amount of the electors. The petition plowded from the cne-4,
tales of refdrtn, and he t. as given toundit-stand that even the
few signatures which were attached to it were not properly ob-
taine.

Mr. RAVE Lt. thought that the petition should be referred to
a committee, that inquiry might be made as to the manner in
which it was got up.
Mr. STEVENS then presented a petition signed by 300 in..
habitants of the ward, setting forth that the number of their
representatives was too small, and praying that it might be

this morning and yesterday has been extensive, and the alarm
caused by the report, of a deficiency in the Revenue,, and the fun

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MANSION-HOUSE.—(Tnis DAY.)
PERPETUAL Movwx.--The Italian Doctor of Laws, who came
here for the purpose of making known his discovery of the perpe-
tual motion, waited upon the Lord Mayor.
A gentleman connected with the Society of Friends to Fo-
reigners in distress, stated that he had enquired into the nature of
the discovery, and it appeared ta- him to be something towards
perpetual motion.
The unfortunate gentleman was referred to Mr. Aikin, the se-
cretary of the Society for the promotion of Arts and Manufac-
hirers, as the best person to determine on the merits of his discovery.

GUILDHALL.--(Tots DAY.)
Henry Brio was charged with having received some pieces of
stolen iron, knowing them to, have Wen stolen bfa little boy, also
in custody, named Thomas Brent.
' Sir PITER, L.auttut committed Brigg for trial, but afterwards
Liberated him.= finding bail.
Paaivat.--.Thomas Courtenay Lloyd was charged with being
guilty of wilful and corrupt perjury.. Previous to the 20th of
September he went to nome . Worship street police-officers, and
stated he wished to give information against a person employed in
colouring counterfeit coin. He was taken.liy the officers to Mr.
Powell, the Mint Solicitor; subsequently he deposed before a Magi-
strate at G uild hall, that Francis Coleman, in a back-room on the first
floor in a house in St. Giles's (giving the number and street),
was in the act of colouring the counterfeit coin; that be had
been doing so, and that there was some of it in that room at the
time of making the deposition. A warrant was taken out to
search the house, when the officers accompanied the prisoner to the
house; in a few days afterwards they were told by him that
Coleman had removed to another place where he was at the same
act. Another warrant was taken out to search that place, gut no
such person was to be found there. The officers then began to sus-
pect that the prisoner had been deceiving them throughout, and
on going to the house in St. Giles's, they found that the house
described in the information, had no such back-room; that no
such person had lodged there, and that the occupier of it had
rented it for the last 20 years respectably.—Retnandeci till
Thursday.

IR ET,ANti,

in a late Number we offered some remarks on the
state of the Protestant Church establishment in Ire-
hind. We are glad to find that our remarks have ex-
cited attention on the other side of the water, and have
beenlitn little amused to find the Editor of the
p Kil-
ken independent, in his gaper of Sept. 16, favour-
ing his readers with a truly elegant and most Hibernian
tirade against our article aforesaid. We must
lighten our readers with one or two of his las. lii
tire first place, ,the writer of our article in the Sun is
more properly 7 designated " the man in the moon !"
In the next place, we are accused of " weakness " in
heading our article with the intelligence about Dr.
Jebb ; and of " temerity " in asserting that he is the
author of his works. We are next informed, "the
Episcopal lands" are a curse, and 'an iniquitous and
and oppressive impost upon the country! and that
the Bishops possess thousands of acres, to therejti-
dice of the prosperity of the nation : (Quere, How?)
Furthermore the indictment saith, that we have main-
tained tithes to be a remuneration for services ; and,
in the same sentence, that we maintain a tithe-holder
to be virtually a /and-holder ; and, again, that tithe is
rent, not land : in either case, not a remuneration :
that is, that we maintain tithe to be a remuneration
and tio.t a remuneration at the same time. Further-
more, says Paddy, If the tithe he paid for duties an,
nexed,. it is not a remuneration : Quere, What then
is it,? He also conceives the advantage of:scholars
being resident in,the country, in reference to the diffir-
sion of civilization, to consist in their being able to make
and recite to the people Greek sapphics and Latin hexa-
meters ! And the reference we made to the civil ser-
vices which the Protestant established Clergy discharge
even to a Catholic population, he summarily discusses
as " a funny argument." To ourselves, we can only
say, his whole article appears much more thinly. The
next time he vouchsafes to notice us, on the tithe
question, we will thank him to give a distinct explana'
Lion of this point ;----when a person leaves an estate
charged with an annual payment (suppose for a cha-
ritable institution), is that annual payment the pro-
perty of such institution or not ? is it a tax upon the
owner of the estate, or upon the fanner who may rent
it ? has it any thing to do with rent or value, or any
other question in the whole range of political eco-
nomy ? Such, according to our ideas, is the question
respecting tithe, whether in England, Ireland, or any
where else.

POLICE INTELLIGENtE.

BOW-STREET...(Tuis Day.)
William Moore was charged by James Heard with an
assault. It appeared by the evidence that the father of the
boy had given 104 to the defendant to learn him the trade
of a cabinet-maker. When defendant received this sum,
he was working as a journeyman, and promised
to commence business for himself. Two years how-
ever, had elapsed, and he had continued working as a
journeymen ever since, and the only time the apprentice
received instructions was after the other had left Ins shop.
Moore was held to bail for the assault, and the Magistrates
advised the father to mike application to the Sessions for
the money to be returned and the indentures cancelled.
Sam id Robert Well:, the watch-house keeper of St.
Martin's watch-house, was summoned for refusing to take
a'eharge from a St. James's watchman.
The watchman stated, that on 'Wednesday night last
he was on duty on the St. James's side of the Haymarket.
There was a violent disturbance etl the St. Martin's side,
and he was told that if somebody did not go to the assist..
ance of the St. Martin's watchman, he would be killed;
witness went to his assistance and received two persons hi
charge, he took them to St. Martin's watch-house, but the
defendant, Wells, refused to take the charge, because the
watchman did not belong to their parish, and on the
watchman reproaching him with taking money of a pri-
soner on a former charge, he locked hut up for twenty'
minutes.
Wells stated, that the watchman had behaved very im-
opperisyrloner, and that there was no person to giVe charge of
pr
the
MINSHULL ordered the charge to be taken down,
and sent to the Watch Committe.

THE FUNDS.

CITY, Twelve o' Clock.
The English Market has been rather flat, Consols opened at
1401 but have receded to 80k, sellers are now buyers. In the
Foreign Market considerable hustle has taken place in Mexican
Bonds, caused by the receipt of a letter, addressed by a passenger
landed at Portsmouth from the Emmelitae, bound from New York
for Havre, which sailed from thence on the 29th Aug. This
gentleman has written that information bad been received the day
prior to their sailing, that intelligence had arrived of the landing
between 5 and 8,000 troops from the Havannah, at or near Tam-
pico; the consequence of which has been a reduction in price of
2 per Cent., in this security. The report is not generally credited,
although the party who brings it is a gentleman of the first charac-
ter : that something of the kind has happened may be true,
but not to the extant stated. Another point is the period of ite
arrival, the 28th August; at New York, as we have arrivals from
the Havannah of the Bth Aug., at which time Commodore La-
borde's squadron was quietly in port; and it is said that it would
he impossible for a fleet to go from the Havannah down to the
Mexican coast and accounts be received at New York in 21 days.
The effect is gradually wearing off, and Mexican Bonds are re-
covering their former price, they are now 61i 2. This account
has absorbed all the attention of speculators this morning, and every
Other security has been unattended to in consequence. Shares are
without business, and scarce a price quoted.

were indicted for assaulting William Nicholls on the King's
highway, putting him in' bodily fear, and forcibly taking
from his person IS. and some pence in copper, a hat, a
basket, and two cloths, his property.
The landlord of the White Lion, and some other wit-
nesses, corroborated several important parts of the prose-
cUtor's statement. When the prisoners were taken, they
had both marks of blood on their clothes.

`A surgeon who attended the prosecutor, proved that he
had been severely iitjured. There were several bruises and
and marks as of pinching with the fingers on the throat.
Both prisoners denied their guilt, and one of them
(Nichols) produced a man with whom he had been em-
ployed as a navigator (excavator), who gave him -a good

RUSSIAN CONSULATE, SEPT. 22.

SlR,—Raving received from my Government the en-
closed alterations regarding the admission of vessels into
Russian ports, when coming from the Havannah, and
other places where the yellow fever is known to be a
disease peculiar to the climate, I hasten to transmit the
same to you, for the information of the members of Lloyd's,
and others interested in the Russian trade.

" Russian Consulate-General, 29, Great Winchester-street,

" The Russian Consul-General has the pleasure to com-
municate to the gentlemen interested in the trade with
Russia, that his Imperial Majesty, always watchful over
their interest, and animated with a sincere desire to afford
every facility and despatch to the commerce of his country,
h; gratiously been pleased to approve of • the resolutions
laid before him by the Committee of his Majesty's Mini-
sters : which committee having taken into consideration
that the interest of those concert-tea in the trade and com-
nierce of Russia might materially suffer by the detention of
1`.2 days of observatimi,witietrvessels must undergo when cit.
tering the ports of Russia, and coming from Egypt or other
suspected places, where the yellow fever is known to be
a disease peculiar to the climate, did resolve to admit in
future, without any delay, all vessels coming from the Ha-
vannah, in the island of Cuba, or other ,similarplacei,
which were hitherto declared to be infected, when provided
with their regular quarantine certificates; but vessels com-
ing from Egypt, even if provided with the regular quaran-
tine certificates, must be submitted, previous to their ad-
mission, to the 12 days of observation. All other suspected
vessels must, conform to. the ..regulations published 'on the
26th of May, lBlt.
" His Imperial Majesty having confirmed the resolutions
of the said Committee, has further hen pleased to order,
that Egyptian vessels should not •be. admitted without' his
Majesty's decision having previously been obtained. •
