BOROUGH AND SPIT.A.X.PIELDS.
We regret to state that several cargoes of diseased Pota-
toes have again come to hand, and been disposed of at mise-
rably low prices. Selected and sound qualities command a
steady, though not to say a brisk demand, at 95s to 100 s for
York Reds, 80s to 120 s for Regents, 80s to 90s for Scotch
Reds, and 75s for Jersey Blues. About 150 tons have been
imported from Holland and France, in good condition.
BOROUGH HOP MARKET.
For new and yearling Hops, in pockets, the demand still
continues firm, at fully previous rates. In bags, however,
comparatively little is doing.
WOOL.
The imports of Wool into London since Monday last have
consisted of 477 bales from Sydney; 557 ditto from Algoa
Bay; 64 ditto from Buenos Ayres; 100 ditto from St.
Petersburgh ; 30 ditto from Antwerp; 60 ditto from Ham-
burgh ; and 100 ditto from various other quarters. Privately,
the demand for both English and Foreign, as well as Colonial
Wools, is heavy, and prices have a downward tendency.
TALLO.
This market is still firm, andW
the demand very good •
there is not much doing prospectively, buyers keep aloof:
the prices for the opening being so much above those of this
day. The accounts of the total shipments at St. Peters-
burgh are not yet made up, but we hope to give them in our
next. The letters from St. Petersburgh bring very high
prices for Tallow for next year, and at which considerable
business is doing. Town Tallow is 42s 6d to 43s net cash.

QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings at Nisi Prius,_ Westminster Hall, before Lord
DENMAN.)
RITCHIE V. LUMING.
In this case it appeared by the evidence that plaintiff was
in the employment, as clerk, of defendant, who was a linen
draper; that he was employed by the year, at a salary of
401., but was discharged in consequence of some alleged irre-
gularity as to late hours, &c., which plaintiff denied, and,
therefore, sought to recover a half-year's salary. The case
occupied some time, and the defendant's witnesses hay-
ing been heard, the plaintiff's counsel, in reply, in the course
of his observations on behalf of his client, said, " I admit it
is never wrong to tell a falsehood upon any occasion."
COURT—" Never wrong to tell a falsehood upon any occa-
sion !"—(Great laughter.)
The jury found for the plaintiff, 17/. 9s. 6d., being the
balance of the half-year's salary due to him."

EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)
(Sittings after Term, before the LORD CHIEF BARON and a
Common Jury.)
BEATON V. TIMMS.
This was an action of debt for money had and received, to
which the plaintiff had pleaded that he never was indebted.
Mr. Jarvis appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Brauwell for
the defendant.
Mr. JARVIS stated the plaintiff's case. The plaintiff was
a gentlemen of property, residing in the Mile-end-road, and
the defendant an auctioneer, carrying on business in Char-
lotte-street, Fitzroy-square, but the real defendants were
Messrs. William and Henry Jubb, who had professed them-
selves to be the owners of certain copyhold property on the
west side of the Uxbridge-road. On the 16th of July in the
last year a portion of this property Was put up for sale by
auction, and the plaintiff became the purchaser of one lot for
1991. 10s., and in accordance with the conditions of sale the
plaintiff paid the defendant on the spot twenty-five per
cent. on the purchase-money, and a clear half of the
auction duty, and the two sums together amounted to
55/. 6s. The conditions of sale provided that an abstract of
title should be delivered to the purchaser within seven days
after the sale, and all objection to such abstract of title were
to be made within ten days after its delivery. The abstract
was delivered at the plaintiff's residence within the seven
days, but the plaintiff being from home at the time, the ac-
curacy of the title could not be inquired into,
or objections made to it within the specified ten
days. On his return home, however, the plaintiff forwarded
the abstract to his solicitor, who ascertained that Nichols,
the party from whom Messrs. Jubb purchased the property
was an insolvent at the time the sale to them took place.
They therefore applied to the defendant to return the deposit
money to the plaintiff, but it was urged that the objection
was not made within ten days after the delivery of the ab-
stract, and therefore the sale ought to be completed.
Evidence was then adduced to prove those facts, after
which

Mr. BRANWELL addressed the jury for the defendant.
He admitted some of the facts stated by his Learned Friend,
but denied that Nichols became an insolvent previous to his
transferring the property to Messrs. Jubb. The fact was,
that in 1833 Nichols, who was a tax-collector, was a defaulter
to the Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes to a considerable
amount, and the copyhold property in question, of which he
was then possessed, was sold by the Crown, as well as some
otherfreehold property, under a writ of extent. The wife, how-
ever, of Nichols, who bad an interest in the copyhold property,
refused to sanction the surrender of the copyhold property,
and her husband was thrown into gaol to compel her to
agree to the sale. At length she did consent, and, her hus-
band being liberated, the property was transferred to Messrs.
Jubb, and Nichols subsequently took the benefit of the In-
solvent Debtors' Act.

A number of witnesses were called to substantiate this
statement, including Nichols himself, who denied that he
ever made the arrangement alluded to by the Learned Coun-
sel ; but one or two of the witnesses positively asserted that
he did.

Mr. BEANWELL intimated that at the time this arrange-
ment was made, it was reduced to writing, and he proposed
to
_pat this agreement in.

NEVTGATE AND LEADENNAIM.
Although a slight increase has taken place in the arrivals
of country slaughtered meat up to those markets during the
past week, and the supplies of meat killed in the metropolis
have been tolerably good, the general demand has ruled firm,
and prices, particularly those of the primest Beef and Pork,
have been steadily supported. About thirty carcases of
foreign beasts and one hundred carcases of Mutton, have
been disposed of, at fair quotations.
