MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DA Y.

CORN-EXCHANGE-FRIDAY..
Since Monday last, the arrivals of English Wheat fresh up
to our market have been only moderate. The samples left
over from that day having been mostly disposed of, the show
was by no means large. The demand, however, for all de-
scriptions, was in a very sluggish state, and previous rates
were barely supported. In foreign Wheats next to nothing
was doing, although the holders were disposed to take less
money. Barley was very heavy in sale, and the turn lower.
Malt might have been purchased at a further decline of from
Is to 2s per quarter. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour, were a
mere drug, and somewhat cheaper.

The supply of Beasts was only limited, and, comparatively
speaking, of very inferior quality, while the Beef trade was
exceedingly heavy, at barely the late depression in the quo-
tations. We had on offer 140 Scots from Aberdeen, and 15
Oxen and Cows from Ruttenlana—the latter being in very
poor condition. Tile numbers of Sheep were small, owing to
which the Mutton trade was active, at fully iilonday's pnces.
With Lambs we were abundantly supplied, while the side for
them was in a very sluggish state, at barely stationary
figures. Calves were in full average supply and heavy de •
nand. The prinnest qualities of Veal were quite as dear;
but other kinds declined in value quite 2d per 81b. In Pigs
next to nothing was done. Mulch Cows sold at from 161 to
191 lOs each.

The reports which continue to arrive from East Kent are,
on the whole, somewhat favourable, but those from most
other quarters state that the bine is looking unpromising.

On Monday evening the King and Queen of the French re-
ceived Marshal Soult, the Minister of Public Works, the
President of the Chamber of Deputies, Rear-Admiral Leray,'

The Duke de Nemours will not set out for the camp of
operations of the Moselle before the Bth or 10th of next

sier, and a numerous staff.
On the evening of the sth, as Marshal Gerard was pro-
ceeding from Paris to his seat at Villers-St.-Paul, his horses,
in passing by Nogent-les-Vierges, came on a piece of the
road under repair, and the wheel catching on a large stone,
the carriage was overturned. The Marshal was thrown out,
and fell on a large heap of stones, which slightly wounded
him in the face. Dr. Cazauvieilh was soon called in, and
gave the necessary attention to the Marshal, who is now
nearly recovered.
The members of the Council of Discipline of the order of
Advocates met on Tuesday to deliberate on the subject of the
decision of the Cour Royale. At the close of the discussion
the whole of the members, including the batonnier, gave in
their resignation. The advocates are to meet on the 13th to
proceed to a new election. It is said that an appeal is to be
made to the Court of Cassation against the decision of the
Cour Royale. The Gazette des Tribuneaux announces that
the advocates of the Cour Royale still refuse to plead before
Baron Seguier, the First President. On Monday, M. Se •
gaffer, in refusing to postpone a cause on account of the
absence of the 'counsel, said, " The avoues have given proof
of good intentions, and, I must add, of talent. We will
'profit by it." The advocates may find to their cost that the
Court can do without them.
The Spanish Government is at length seriously preparing
to make war against Morocco. An army of 6,000 men is
under immediate orders for Ceuta.
According to accounts from St. Petersburgh of the 24th
ult., the health of the Grand Duchess Alexandra continued
to improve. Nothing is said respecting the rumoured severe
illness of the Empress.
A violent storm occurred in the night of the 16th, in the
province of Padusi. It uprooted large trees, threw down two
substantially-built houses, four barns, and a mill, destroyed
the sluices, and carried away two vessels on one of the rivers.
Two young girls were killed, and 22 persons more or less in-
jured, by the falling of the houses.
The number of passengers _conveyed by the railroad from
' Naples to Capua, in the month of May, was 67,062. The
number by the railroad of Castellamare and Nocera was
102,013.
A letter from Alexandria, of the 18th ult., says :—" Mehe-
met Ali is endeavouring to dispose of his stock of cotton. At
the request of the Marquis de Lavalette, he has consented to
adopt a new mode of sale. Hitherto he has allowed the pur-
chasers only eight days for payment ; they are in future to
pay only one-fifth in eight days, and the remaining four-fifths
thrrty-two days afterwards."
maw AND POLXCZ.
Mr. Justice 'Williams opened the commission for the Nor-
folk circuit at Buckingham on Wednesday. The criminal
calendar is very short, and the crimes charged are by no
means of a serious kind, with the exception of a charge of
murder, in which the deceased was a gamekeeper. The
number of prisoners is only 14.
At Abingdon on Thursday, Chief Justice Tindal heard
some cases in the nisi prius court, but they were without in-
terest. In the Crown court Joshua Ware, 19 years of age,
was convicted of a burglary, on the Ist of May, in the house
of the Rev. G. H. Hodson, at Cookham, and sentenced to be
transported for ten years.
In the Court of Bankruptcy William Bromley underwent
another examination, which disclosed facts of a most painful
nature, and frauds to an enormous extent. The debts and,
liabilities amount in round numbers to about 140,0001., prin-
cipally through breaches of trust, and some of them appeared
to have extended as far back as 1824. The case is given at
length under the proper head.
John Warringham, a waterman, who resides near Horsely-
down, was fined 40s. at the Mansion-house for serious ob-
struction to the navigation of the river Thames, which is at
the present time crowded within the port of London with ves-
sels of all description's.
At Marylebone, Frederick James Reynolds and Jane
Thompson, both of .whom were respectably attired, were
charged with having, by means of begging petitions of a fic-
titious nature, obtained various sums of money. In conse-
quence of a begging petition and a fictitious certificate, the
list of subscriptions was of considerable length, and among
the names, many of which are supposed to be fictitious, was
that of the Rev. Dr. Spry fur 5L ; and there was also an item
" voluntary subscriptions in the neighbourhood, 151. 10s. 6d."
They were both remanded.
James Mitchell, a determined-looking fellow, was brought
up for final examination before Mr. G. Clive, the sitting ma-
gistrate, at Hammersmith, on a charge of having committed
a murderous assault upon a female, named Fanny Pearce,
who was in attendance. She appeared very weak from the
effects of the injuries she had received, but upon being called
upon to take the oath she refused,saying she had no charge to
make against the prisoner. Mr. Clive, nevertheless, said—l
think it my duty to send the case to the sessions, and I shall
also report the case to the Secretary of State for the Home
Department, as it is now done in cases of most serious assails,
in which it is essential to the public interests that a convic-
tion should be had. The prisoner was then ordered to enter
into recognizances, himself in 40/., and two sureties in 20/.
each, to appear at the sessions.
At Union Hall, a woman named Brown, in the service of
Charles Conolly, a newsvender. of Duke-street, London -
bridge, was brought before Mr. Cottiugham, charged with
robbing her master of 1851. in Bank of England notes and
sovereigns, and four other persons, a man named Buckley
and his wife, and two women, named Quin and Wigzell, were
charged with being concerned in the offence. All the pri-
soners were remanded.

THE LATE WILL FORGERY
CASES.
It will be in the recollection of the readers of The Sun that
we inserted two several declarations which had been voinn-,.
tardy made by Fletcher, after the embarkation of himself
and Barber on board the Agincourt, convict ship, for the pens/
settlements in Norfolk Island, in which Fletcher declared the
innocence of Barber in any guilty knowledge or participa-
tion of the forgeries -which had been committed. In The
Sun of yesterday we also published a letter sent by the con-
vict Barber himself, immediately preparatory to the sailing
of the vessel on Monday. Yesterday, Mr. Peckham, Bo-
ber's attorney, received the following document, which hag
been forwarded to Sir James Graham, the Home Secretary
" I, William Sanders, now under sence of transportation
for seven years, and about to leave my country, and desirous
of reiterating all my former statements of my firm belief and
conviction of the complete innocence of William Henry Bar-
ber of any participation or guilty knowledge whatever of the
late transactions in which I or my wife, Lydia Sanders, were
concerned, or that he received one farthing more than his pro-
fessional remuneration.
" William Henry Barber was an utter stranger to me, until
introduced to him by Joshua Fletcher as Thomas Hunt; nor
did I after see him, or have any subsequent communication
with him until my examination at the Mansion-house.
" I make this declaration from an unfeigned desire of doing
all the justice that in my power lies to one whom I have been
instrumental in placing in a position of the horrors of which
I am now too painfully acquainted.
