CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of Grain reported this week are moderate,
and of Flour inconsiderable. There is very little good
Wheat offering this morning, and such sells. tardily, but
supports Monday's quotations ; in other qualities there are
scarcely any transactions to-day. Barley remains as last
quoted. Scarcey any Beans are here for sale. Pease are
as reported on Monday. More money is asked for Oats,
and Monday's terms can be readily obtained. Although
the top price of Flour is fully settled at 80s. per sack, yet
many of the millers do not refuse to make sales of the
best quality at 7.55. per sack. All the foreign markets
come considerably higher for Wheat, owing to the large
orders from both France and England.

ARREST OF JOSEPH HUNTON, FOR

FORGERY.

Capt. Sprague, of the Leeds, London lineof packet
ship, at Portsmouth, writes on the 7th inst., that two
Bow-street Officers had arrived from London in the
morning-, and taken out of that vessel a passenger
on a charge of forgery on the house of Sir William
Curtis and Co. He came on bow d the Leeds at
London, by the name of Wilkinson, and stated that
he was a merchant in Ironmonger-lane ;* his family
resident about four miles from London. Captain S. '
mentions--" I understand that his real name' is
Joseph Minton, and he is now lodged in gaol.—
They proceed for London to-night. It is fortunate
for the ends of justice that the vessel was detained
by contrary winds."
Hunton was a partner in a house of business in Iron-
monger-iane, independent
,of the shop he occupied in
Bishopsgate.street as a linen-draper.

His Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX
proceeded from Kinmel-park, on a visit to Penrhyn Castle,
thence to the Menai-bridge, Craig-y-don, and Bangor,
whence he retraced his route to Kinmel, and from thence
to Eaton-hall, the seat of Earl GROSVENOR. The Royal
Duke experienced a slight hurt on the knee while on a
shooting excursion during his visit at Kinmel ; but, under
judicious treatment, no material inconvenience resulted
from the accident.— Worcester Herald.

THE PROCLAMATION.—Defective in the
main point as Lord ANGLEsEA's Proclamation obviously is,
there is one point of view in which we are disposed to re-
gard it favourably, it sets the Government completely at
issue with the Popish Association. This latter body as-
sumes the Government of Ireland, and boasts that it has
become too powerful for the control of the King's Govern-
ment. It sends forth its deputy for a purpose which it
proclaims lawful, although the deputy himself be Lawless.
Lord ANCLESEA proclaims both the deputy and his objects
to be lawless, and that he will put a stop to the progress of
the ene and the accomplishment of the other. The Asso.

a quarrel took place at
On Thursday evening
the Penn Mill Inn, near Yeovil, between a journeyman
glover, named ALLEN, and an itinerant dealer in corks,
'famed SMITH, in consequence of which the former chal-
lenged the latter to fight; Stunt, Nvho was in some de-
gree intoxicated, was at first unwilling to comply, but,
provoked by his antagonist, and urged by his wife, be at
length entered into the contest, and in the second round
received a blow in the neck, which, in the state of excite-
ment arising from liquor and anger he was in at the me-
ruent, caused instant death. A Coroner's Inquest was held
on the body on Friday evening, by Mr. UPHILL, when a
verdict of " Manslaughter" was returned against ALLEN,
who has absconded.—Sherborite Mercuru.
