COUNTRY COIN MARKETS.

NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE MARKET—Jan. 17.
Our arrivals of Foreign Wheat emtinuing rely large,
make the smallness of the farmers' ,apply of little conse-
quence, and sales were heavy to-day a=t a decline of Is. per
quarter; of Oats the supplies were large, aml that trade
WaB extremely dull, at a decline of is. per quarter. Our
buyers of Barley and Rye have now -49 much choice of fo-
reign, that only the finest of either are in any demand,
the inferior samples of both being now totally unsaleable.
Malt dull. Little doing in Beans or Pease. Flour in
fair detnand.

MANCIIESIER CORN 11Al1ICET.-I.n. 17.
The trade throughout the present week has been in the
same inanimate state as last noted; and notwithstanding*
we had a fell attendance of country millers and dealers on
'Change this morning, very few sides have been made.
Wheat is 3d. per 701 b. cheaper. Grinding Barley Id.
to 2d., and Oats 41. to lid.. per bushel lower. There is
a reteil demand for Boiling Pease, and Beans nearly sup-
port last Saturday's rates. The demand for Malt is so
exceedingly limited, that this artkle has expeC.,
further decline of Is. per load. Flour is 2s. and
Is. below the currency of this day se'nnight.

SPIRIT OF THE LONDON JOIIINALS.

(FROM THE TIMES.)

• Our paper of to-day presents a more striking mag-
nitude of appearance than any thing that ever pro-
reeded opt of mechanical press, re was " taken off"
Atari a revolving cylinder. It is a double paper,
e:resisting of eight paws, and forty-eight. columns,
instead of four pages and twenty-four columns. We
'present it to the readers in as manageable a I:m*l'A Rs
pgsfilAe; being a folio, the leaves of vi,lhea may be
ternsea over after being cat like trose of any other
book of that size, at& the whole rit,zessei a kind of
book-firmness consisten,ey which cannot be im-
parted to two leaves. We think it necessary to state,
however, that the 'Timex will only appear its it's pre-
sent form occasionally during the sitting oi" Parlia-
ment, when the pressure of matter as well as of
advertisements may render such an increase of its
volume necessary. We have adopted the expedient
in consequence of the present state of the law with
respect to newspaper stamps; for though, when
-publishing a supplement, we always offered it
gratuitously to the public, GOrernmehr was not so
indulgent to us. The stamp of the second sheet
did not come gratuitously into our possession!,
eo
that upon every supplemental sheet we -sustained
the loss of the stamp. Yet is it lei': ?air to acknow-
ledge that the law, in its Prefr'ent state, is a great re-
taxation of that whiell sprevailed about two years
ago, when the dun;- on stamps of supplemental
sheets was reduce_4l 50 per cent. We still, how-
ever, avail ourselres of the power wltieh remains to
us, of plac;',ig under one stenw a larger sheet of
raper tiro, ever before tees manufactured.

(FROM THE 3-IWINING CHRONICLE.)
'We lay hercire teer Readers an ample Repoet of
the Proceeding• at the Meeting of the County of
Devon, on Friday last. At this Meeting, as at the
Kent Meeting, the High Aristneracy were nearly all
opposed to the Brunswitters. The gentry seem to
have l'een more evally divided; and the parsons
ate. rabble were, AS usual, on the side of the Brune-
-wicker& The latter had been tolerably drilled, and
on certain eigne being made, the speakers on the
heillertd side were drowned by discordant noises. On
she whole, there was a majority in faronr of the
lirunswickers, who were to their opponents as five
to four. The Brunswiekers in point of reesoning cet
a very sorry figure. Sir Thomas Lethbridge, from
Sornersetshire, came to their relief with a little
p;ood-humoured absurdity, Reel An argument to
peace that the Catholic-Association was a body
which was unconstitutional, and ought to be put
sloven, directed ad hontinein to Lord Ebringtoe, who
had subscribed to it. This Corypheits of the Brims-
teickers, however, had the merit of recommending
n intelttible enerse with reaneet to the Cat !t,.'tes
(in which respect he differed from his twaddling
brethren). " I agree," he said, " with there on
the other side When they say that things cannot re-
main as they are. Thanks to concession, and to
false Conciliation, our Roman Catholic fellow=
suitects of Ireland have assumed a position so dan-
erous to the existence of the State, that I defy it
to continue longer without imminent danger to the
Constitution, (Laughter.) The Constitutional
Association must be put down. (Great applause.)
The power of the Popish Priests must be get rid of,
they must not be suffered to coerce the people of
Ireland to vote against their dearest friends, their
Landlords, and against the interests of their conntrv."
This is intelligible language. If the Catholics had
-not been relieved from the most oppressive of the
penal laws, sad suffered to acquire propel ty, and the
feelings of independence which property gives, the
question with regard to them would not be so ur-
gent in the present day. The position of the Catho-
lics is one of imminent danger to the State; but,
unfortunately, the remedy for that danger, of putting
down the Catholic A.ls.elation, has been already
attempted without success. We suspect the other
remedy, of getting rid of the power of the Popish
Prieeta, will be attended with equal want of success.
Sir Thomas must either contrive to place the
Catholics in the state into which they were
before concession allowed them to become what
they are, or be must make a still farther conces-
sion. Between prostrate slaves and citizens with
equal rights, there is en medium. We confess,
when we consider the prejudices in which the lower
nrders of Englishreen are educated with respect to
Catholicism, and die obstacles in the way of their
obtaining in remote districts more enlightened no-
tions on the subject, we are rather surprised that
the majority on this oseesioe should have been so
small. Eden in the enlightened town of Leeds,
fifteen years ago, the opponents of concession, as
has been ahewn by the Leede Mercury, were fifteen
to one of the other party. By dint of discussion,
the adrocatea of concession have obtained a ma-
jerity there, as they litre in Manchester and all the
other populous and enlightened places. The Meet-
ing of the County of Devon, by drawing the atten-
tion of the people forcibly to the question, must do
good. When they have discussed it two or three
times, even the most stupid hinds must see that the
arguments of the Brunswickers at the meeting of
Friday were utterly irrelevant. They will ask them-
selves, are we to be heavily burthened year after
year to keep down the people of Ireland, to say
nothing of the imminent danger to the empire
at large from its unsettled state ? The Bruns-
vrickera propose nothing—they deal merely
in accusations against the good faith of
Catholics, and vague allegations of danger
to the PrOtestant Church and Protestant Con-
stitution. They do not tell us how Ireland can
be tranquillized without placing Catholics on a
footing of equality with Protestants in point of
civil rights, nor can they show how the Constitu-
tion or Church would be exposed to more danger
after than before Emancipation. Had this question
been agitated in Devonshire fifteen years ago, the
majority against concession would have been in-
finitely greater than it is now. God forbid that the
opinion .of Devonshire should be taken for the oei-
Mon of England generally ; but it is consolatory to
think that prejudices are fast giving way in that re-
mote part of the country. The conduct of the
High Sheriff seems to have been equally discredit-
able with the conduct of the Brunswickers. Though
he had promised to dissolve the Meeting if they
did net allow a fair hearing to the speaker, Sir Thos.
Acland, the County Member, was e ctually rert.sed a
hearing; and, instead of either insisting os this
gentleman being heard, or redeeming his pledge, he
had recourse to evasion.
