CITY MARKETS, TWO O'CLOCK.

RAW SUGARS.—In consequence of one or two
houses having become sellers, there has been rather
more business doing this morning at a small decline
in price; the buyers appear rather more disposed
to pm chase where the holders show any inclination
to meet their views. The deliveries of last week
fell off upwards of 800 Mids.; the deficiency in
stock is now only 13,527 hhds.
FOREIGN SUGARS remain as last week.•

REFINED SUGARS—LOW Lumps continue scarce,
and in demand, and are eagerly taken out of the
market at 84s. to 84s. 6d. In low single Loaves
also there has been more doing at about 86s; in
crashed also there is rather more doing.
COFFEE.—There have been no public sales this
morning, and no purchases by private contract have
been reported; the demand continues exceedingly
languid ; a parcel of fair St. Domingo was sold on
Friday at public sale, 38s. to 38s. 6d.
FRUlT.—There is no alteration in the prices of
this article to-day, the demand for all descriptions
continues to improve ; there are some arrivals
of Red Smyrna Raisins, Figs, Currants, &0.,
but none are yet landing, the Red fruit continu-
ing to be much 'inquired after. A public sale of
Currants, part damaged, was brought forward this
morning, and went off, butts 88s. to 925.; and
Caroteels 925. to 945.
RUSSIAN PRODUCE.—The arrivals of Tallow have
within the last week been very great, as is usnal at
this season of the year. As it is expected that the
whole quantity remaining at St. Petersburgh will be
purchased and shipped before the frost sets in, the
stock of Tallow in this country at the end of the
year is expected to exceed 50,000 casks, or a greater
quantity by 20,000 casks than will be required for
consumption until the spring arrivals. The deli-
veries in the week ending last night, have only been
3,520 cwt. Speculation in this article is at present
unusually dull, but the demand for the trade is steady.
The price this morning cannot be quoted above.
Hemp and Flax are much the same, the former if
any thing rather lower.
Since writing what precedes, advices have been
received from St. Petersburgh to the 10th inst.,
which state the weather continued open, and the
loading of ships with Tallow, &c. was proceeding
with rapidity. It was expected that the whole of
the Tallow remaining would be shipped off.
In SPICES there has not been any considerable
dealings, but the deliveries from the warehouse are
on an extended scale. The low price of Pepper ren-
ders it a fair article for . speculation, and some few
parcels have been purchased under the idea that an
advance must take place. The exports of Pepper
to Germany, Russia, and Spain, have been large
latterly. The present price of Cloves is within the
East India" Company's limit. All descriptions of
Turkey produce are a shade lower, the effect of the
pacific character of the news from Constantinople.
.The same remark will apply to
SALTPETRE AND OTHER WARLIKE STORES.—
The deliveries from warehouse of Saltpetre within

the last seven days have been more extensive than
for a long time past, having amounted to 4,103 cwt.
The value of the article this morning may be quoted
from 6d. to ls. under the highest prices of last
week. Exports to the Netherlands and Italy have
been freely made. ,
Boys,--The business done since the declaration
of the duty has been inconsiderable.: Kent are steady
at from 84s. to 1055., and Sussek at from .80s. to
86s. per cwt.
Coirkw,v-' W00t..--Since the East India Com-
pany's sale, which consisted of 7,288 bales of Surat,
very little has been done in this article; as, however,
the accounts from Liverpool continue to advise in-

creased activity there more business is expected in
our market. The :
demand from the manufacturing
districts continues steady, but the prices, in general,
remain about the same as for the last. week.

We had a scanty supply of Wheat at market to-day, the
whole of which was taken off readily at last week's prices.
There was a good supply of Barley, for which there was
a good demand, at prices fully equal to last week. Oats
being scarce are about Is. per quarter dearer. Beans and

It is certain that active preparations are making
for the placing Mr. Gurney's Steam Carriage on
the line of road between 'London and Bristol.
The national advantages that must arise out of
the success of such an undertaking, excite for it
the most lively interest in the highest quarters ;
and it is said that the inventor has been invited
to proceed first to Windsor to gratify the curio-
sity of the Court. A few excursions in the neigh-
bourhood of London will afterwards introduce it
to the public, and it will then be sent forth as a
public conveyance.---Bath Journal.

'THE CHURCI-I.—A rumour is very prevalent
among the clergy, that it is intended to make ap-
plication to the Legislature for the endowment
of a college in the metropolis, which, like the
other great universities, shall be under the, con-
trol, and dedicated to the purposes of, the Esta-
blished Church. Several private individuals
have already signified their intention; should the
Legislature adopt this idea, to found professor-
ships and scholarships, and to devote sums for
annual prizes. This establishment, the heads of
the. proposed arrangement for which, we have
reason to know, have been already submitted to
the hierarchy of the Church, is thought neces-
sary, in consequence of the determination of the
planners and promoters of the Dissenters' Uni-
versity to persevere in the prosecution of this
undertaking.—Evening Paper.

INMINfAN MURDER ON BLACKHEATH.

Yesterday evening- at five o'clock, .a jury were
empannelled before Mr. Carttar, the Coroner, at the
George and Dragon, at a place called Sots-hole, on
Blackheath, to enquire into the death of a fine boy,
named Henry Dale, aged 4i years, who was mur-
dered by his mother, Elizabeth Dale, under circum-
stances revolting to human nature.

The dreadful circumstance created such a sensa-
tion in the neighbourhood of Blackheath, Green-
wich, and the adjacent places, that all descriptions of
persons congregated in and about the house where
the inquiry took place.
Mr. CARTTAR having taken his seat, administered
the usual oath, and he, with the Jury, proceeded to , ,
'view the body, which was lying in the yard at the
back of the house. There appeared no external
mark of violence, and the poor fellow seemed as if he 1
was in a sound sleep.
On the return of the Jury the following testimony
was produced.
Mrs. Ann Dale, of Greenwich, deposed that the
deceased was her grandson, and his mother is hat
daughter. His reputed father is one Robert Halley.
A short time since she lived servant to Mr. Smith,
senior, coal-merchant, in Londor.-street. The last
time she saw the deceased alive was about a fort-
night since, when she gave him up to his mother at
Mrs. Halley's, in Thames-street, much against her
will, as she knew her general conduct to the child
was bad, and she never behaved like a mother to it.
Elizabeth Twyram, widow, residing in Mordan-
street, Greenwich, deposed, that on Thursday night
last, a woman brought a little boy, which she knows
to be the deceased, to her house. The woman had
slept at her house once or twice before, and she un-
derstood her name to be Elizabeth Dale. She told
her it was her brother's child, and that the mother
used it so bad that she was obliged to take it front
her. She slept with the child at her house that.
night, and at about a quarter past seven o'clock,
next evening (Friday) she took him away, saying
she was going to take him home, but she did not
say where that home was. Witness never saw the
child alive after. In about a quarter of an hour after
she left the house with her little boy ; she returned
without him. Witness asked her if she had taken the
child home, and she said she had given it to a wo-
man that she met to take home. She said no more
about it that night, but ate a hearty supper and
went to bed. Nothing more passed about the child.
She remained at her house till Saturday morning,
when she was taken away by Farmer, the officer.
When the child was taken away by its mother, it
was dressed in a buff frock; and wore a cloth cap
with a leather peak.
John Cattling Morris sworn.—He saw the de-
ceased in a piece of water, called Chocolate Pond,
in the valley leading from Blackheath to Croom's
Hill, Greenwich, at about nine o'clock on Saturday
morning. The pond was frozen over except where
the body was lying, and its left hand was sticking
out of the ice, about six feet from the edge of the
pond. Witness tried to get it out, but could not.
At length he got assistance, and the ice was broken,
and the child taken out, quite dead and stiff. He
had no capon his head, nor any thing about his
head. Witness did not. hear any thing about his
death, but happened by accident to be passing by,
and saw the deceased's hand sticking up; the ice
seemed•to have frozen over it since it had been in

the water.
John Farmer, the constable of Greenwich, stated
that on hearing that the body had been picked up
in ChocOlate-pond, he set about making inquiries,
and ascertained it to be the son of Elizabeth Dale.
He went and apprehended her at her lodgings. She
gave very incoherent answers to the questions he
put to her, and appeared indifferent as to what had
become of child; she said she had left it with a
woman on Blackheath, it was so very cold, and she
had not seen it since. Witness said, " Ah, it is
colder now;" to which she replied, " I would sooner
make away with myself than my child." He had
never told her the child was dead, nor did he tell ;
her -for what he apprehended her. Witness found
the cloth cap which had been, produced in her room.
The unhappy woman was then ordered to stand
forward. She is rather well looking,' and apps-
' rently about 27 years of age, and six months ad-
vanced in pregnancy.
She answered the questions put to her with the,
greatest indifference, and, with the exception of the
exhaustion caused by the heat of the room, she did
not appear the least affected.
It being now halfrpast one o'clock this morning,
and all the witnesses being examined, the Coronet
summed up the evidence, and the room was cleared
of all strangers.
The Jury, after a long consultation, returned a
verdict of " Wilful Murder against Elizabeth Dale,"
the mother, and she was committed on the Coroner's
warrant to take her trial at the next Maidstone
Assizes.

The unhappy woman did not appear in the least,
on being told of the result of the inquiry, to feel the
dreadful situation in which she stood, and was taken
away by Farmer to the lock-up house for the night,
and will be conveyed to-morrow to Maidstone.

MONSIEUR DP. VILLELE

The; great measure- of dissolving the Cham-
ber of Deputies had not been deter-
mined upon in the Council of State until after
much discussion, and warm opposition front
more than one of the Ministers, but particularly
from M. de Chabrol, the Minister for the Naval
Department. M. de Villele's opinion, however,
triumphed ; and though he adduced many and
excellent reasons in support of it, his most
powerful . argument, after all, was the assured
confidence with which he asserted (trusting as
he did to the reports of the Prefects) that he
was certain of having three-fourths of the 430
Deputies, and that the Liberals and the coun-
ter-Opposition would not, with all. their efforts,
be able to muster more than from 110 to 120.
When he brought the Ordinance to the King to
be signed, his Majesty said' to hint, " Reflect
well upon it, M. de Villele. This is entirely
your own act. You are still free to recall it ;
and I am desirous that you should still. give the
question more thought. I Tat now going to the
chace. To morrow morning, if you still persist
in your resolution, I shall sign it." The
next morning M. de Villele again repeated
his positive assurances of success with re-
gard to the elections, and the Ordinance was
signed. After such preliminaries, it is easy
to suppose how great must be the disap-
pointment, at present of the ,President of the
Council, and how embarrassed he must find him-
self in the presence of the King, after the com-
mission of so gross an error in his political cal-
culations and knowledge of the country which
he pretends to govern. .But, all of a sudden,
the illuminations and rejoicings destined to cele-
brate the 'triumph of the . Constitutional electors
have been interrupted by commotions and blood-
shed. To the very natural, question of "In
whose interest have those commotions been got
up ?" the inevitable answer has been, " C'er-

the characteristic circumstances attending these
tumults were of a nature to strengthen these
suspicions. On the morning of the 21st the
eight newly-elected Deputies of Paris waited on
M. de Villele, to engage hint to adopt the most
efficient measures for the suppression of these
disorders, and the discovery of the re al
instigators.
M. Lafitte, who was spokesman on the occasion,
said to'M. de Villele, " You, are too much of a
statesman to believe that these troubles have been
excited by the Constitntional party. You know
well that they can gain nothing by them. The
legal triumph they have just obtained, is suffi-
cient for them. "I am totally ignorant, I as-
sure you," replied M. de Villele, " as to the
real instigators of these excesses. The only
thing of which I am certain is, that the Ministry
have had nothing whatsoever to do with them."
" Of that I am perfectly convinced," said M.
Lafitte, " but no doubt your Excellency has
sought to discover from what quarter the insti-
gators have come, ,and . in doing so, I have little
doubt but your regards have been turned on the
same direction as ours." To this, M. de Villele
only replied by a smile, and then added, " that
the Ministry was most anxious that the truth
might be come at, and that for that purpose he
would wish that a high judicial body, the' Cour
Royale of Paris should be charged with the ex-
amination of the affair, and that the administra-
would furniarflieni ii2ith_ all the means in
their power-of sifting' The matter to the bottom.-
M. de Villele, ou thiS occasion, was particularly
mild and affable, and though this interview with
the eight Constitutional
_Deputies of Paris of-
fered him the lively image of his defeat, he
felt, or affected to feel, the most complete tran-
quillity of mind. •
