LIVERPOOL MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY.—The duty upon Colo-
uial Wheat and 'Flour having again further advanced.
is now at the highest point prescribed by the existing
Corn Act, viz. ss. per quarter, and 3s. per barrel, re-
spectively ; upon Foreign Wheat also it is raised to
18s., on Oats to Bs. per quarter, and on Flour to
10s. 10d. per barrel, being a virtual prohibition of
their release for home consumption.
The general imports of the past three days are ex-
tremely light; notwithstanding, we have continued to
experience a heavy sale for all articles of the trade in
the interval from Tuesday last, though at no percepti-
ble difference from the currency of that day.
llaving no lively reports from London or other
markets to animate the trade here, and the millers
teginning to receive rather better supplies of new
Wheat direct from the growers, enable them to pro-
ceed with a less portion of old. At our Corn Ex-
change this morning, therefore, all descriptions of
Foreign seemed to he nearly without demand, receding
in value at least ld. to 2d., and Irish new, 3d. to 4d.,
in some instances Gd. per 701bs. below the current
rates of Tuesday; whilst English new, although very
few samples appeared, was decidedly cheaper.
States and Canadian Flour, upon a very limited in-
quiry, was Gd. per barrel lower; but tiglish and
Irish, being scarce, remained at late prices. •
Of Malting Barley we have no supply; meantime
Grinding qualities continue in slow request,•on the
terms last noted. Malt, Beans, and Peas, exceed-
ingly dull, and each Is. per quarter cheaper.
Oats were taken off very sparingly, at our last
quotations : and Oatmeal, attended with a slow, lin-
gering sale, declined Is. per 2401bg.
COTTON MARKET, THREE o'CLocK.—The dreadful
fire, which has devastated more Cotton than any
other produce, consuming, it is estimated, fully
50,000 bales, has caused an uneven sort of market
to-day, many parties refusing, 'or perhaps being un-
able, to show their stocks ; notwithstanding, 3,000
bales have been sold at the full prices current during
the week, and in some instances a slight advance has
been paid. The sales .of the week are again only
12,710 bales, principally taken by the trade.

THE PREMIER IN A DILEMMA.

The position of Sir Robert Peel, in reference to
the income tax, and his ,intended reduction of the
import duties, is far from being an enviable one;
nor is it much to be wondered at that he should now
and then, under the baiting of his opponents, exhibit
a degree of ill temper rather unbecoming in a
Prime Minister at a crisis like the present. On
the one hand, he is anxious to allay opposition to
the income tax, by expatiating on the probable
cheapness of provisions, in consequence of his pro-
posed alteration of the duties on certain articles
of food, and the removal of all prohibition on the
importation of other articles. But, unfortunately,
in his attempts to show that the cost of living will be
considerably reduced by his alteration of the tariff,
he finds that he is awakening the fears of the mono-
polists, on whom he mainly relies for support ; and
therefore he is obliged to contradict on the one even-
ing, what he has been most vehemently asserting on
the other. Thus, for example, on Friday last, in the
course of his speech, he is reported to have spoken as
follows :—" If my whole plan be adopted, there will be
a diminution of the cost of living, which will repay
to the contributors' to the income tax a large propor-
tion of the money they are called upon to advance:"
But, unhappily for the Premier's consistency, he
does not agree with himself. In his reply to a ques-
tion put to him on Monday evening, as to what
would be the probable amount of revenue derived
from the importation of foreign cattle, Sir Ro-
bert Peel said, " He had no -fear that the
tion of cattle, fat. fat
,Or, lean, would materially, if at
all,:injnie. the home grazier." But, if this is to be
the sase, __what becomes of the much-Vaunted reduc-
titin in the cost of living,• which; according, to his
O rf, nkilt the -i,'iAli;tSke i onsbr,l
tO be nearly equal to the whole stun each person
would have to pay in the shape of an income tax ?
Who can wonder at the disinclination of the Right
Hon. Baronet to answer every question respecting his
financial, scheme, which his indefatigable opponents
may propose, when his complaisance is continually
liable to place him on the horns of a dilemna, such
as the one we have pointed out ?—Manchester
Guardian.
London, England, 1842-03-28

THE PREMIER'S INSTINCT.

. ,
Sir Robert Peel, like Sir John Falstaff, "will not give
a reason on compulsion ;" yet he hath ever ready some
" device,lc some " trick," some " starting-hole" to " hide"
him from open and apparent shame." " I was a coward
on instinct," quoth the fat Knight. " There is a keen
instinctive sense of What man is worth," quoth the
"buoyant" Baronet. "Beware instinct." "Instinct is
a great matter." Oh ! Dogberry, Dogberry ! hence-
forth art thou. naught. , Thou didst indeed discover,
that " to write and to read comes by nature ;" but what
is that to " the instinctive sense of what a man is
worth ?" No more than "an ancient and quiet watch-
man" is to a modern and bullying "Peeler." As they
value their science, let the Phrenologists look to it, and
lose no time in assigning to this "instinct" "a local
habitation and a name."

WORSHIP-STREET.

Edwin Reynolds and Fredericlt William Tattersall. two
genteel-looking youths, who were stated to be clerks in
a barrister's office, were charged with having uttered a
counterfeit shilling at the shop of Mr. Jennings, a baker,
in Hackney-road. Several respectable-looking persons,
the friends and relations of the accused, surrounded the
bar, and a solicitor attended to defend them. The tom-
plainant stated that the defendant Tattersall entered his
shop, and asked for a bun, in payment of which he ten-
dered a shilling, which witness perceived was a bad one.
The defendant said he had received it from his friend,
the other defendant, who was outside. The witness then
sent for a policeman, and had both the defendants taken
into custody. In answer to the charge, the defendant
Reynolds said he had received the shilling in change fora
sovereign, and had not the slightest suspicion oF its being a
bad one. The friends of the prisoners here stepped forward,
complained loudly of the harsh manner in which they had
been treated, and of the injurious effect such an accusa-
tion was calculated to have upon their characters, which
had been heretofore without a blemish.

Mr. BROUGHTON said that the prosecutor had certainly
acted in a very hasty and injudicious manner in giving
the prisoners into custody, the most respectable people
being liable t 3 have a bad piece of money in their pos-
session without being at all aware of it. He recollected
the case of a respectable married woman who was brought
before him some time ago on a similar charge, which he
dismissed, and her husband afterwards brought an action
against her accuser, and recovered 100/. damages. He
should discharge the defendants, and he strongly recom-
mended Mr. Jennings to endeavour to make his peace
with them, and thereby avert the unpleasant conse-
quences that might otherwise result from his hasty pro-
ceedings.
The prosecutor accordingly made a public apology to
tha defandants for the harsh conduct he had pursued to-
wards them, and, as a further atonement, he contributed
20s. to the office poor-box. The defendants were then
discharged.

STATE OF TRADE.—We much regret to have to
announce a further deterioration in the state of our
market. A complete gloom has pervaded things during
the whole of the week. On Tuesday it was hoped that
some improvent might have been felt, some realization
of previous hopes experienced—everybody; however, was
deceived. The business done on 'Change in yarns was
on that day limited to a degree, and prices of nearly all
descriptions fell full one-eighth per lb. In cloth a similar
effect was seen. Little .business was done, and where
sales were effected it was at a reduction in price, alarm-
ingly low though prices previously were. " Well!" said
a large spinner, a Conservative too, the other day," as
good 72 reed printing cloth as can be made may be
bought at ss. per piece, or is. a pound, and fair 40s'. mule
twist may be readily found `at 83-d. per lb. ; one half of the
spinners will be broken shortly, and then the other half
may hope for an improvement ' So much for the." im-
proved confidence," "'renewal of public faith," &c. &c.,

of the all-wise Peel Got ernment! When will the Tories
discover that we want sweeping measures rather than
plausible Ministers Y—Manchester Guardian.

damages, and 6d. costs.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.--Hereford, Marcia 25

„
CROWN COURT.—(Before Mr. Justice URESSWELL.)
William Seale was indicted for stealing from George
Coleman. Esq., of Dilwyn, a bee-hive, his property.
Mr. W. H. Cooke conducted the case for the Crown ;
the prisoner was defended by Mr. Carrington.
It appeared that the hive was stolen from Mr. Cole-
man's premises on the sth March, and was found on the
16th, in the prisoner's garden. The prosecutor iden-
tified it by some marks which had accidentally been
made oa the straw.

Upon the hive being produced in Court for the pur-
pose of identification, some consternation and no little
amusement were occasioned, lest the angry tenants
should emerge from their frail receptacle, and wreak
" indignant vengeance " upon the assembled Bar
and Jury. The Counsel for the prosecution displayed
considerable ingenuity in his endeavours to foil
the eager 'curiosity of the Jury, who manifested
much anxiety to inspect the marks by which it
was said the hive could be known, but all his objections
were over-ruled, and the article in question was accord-
ingly borne by the constable (who evidently showed no
relish for the task) in a white linen cloth to the Jury-
box. Strong symptoms of disapprobation were audible
from within, which increased to an angry murmur when
one juryman bolder than the rest commenced unpinning
the outward covering. Several sapient suggestions were
advanced as to the means by which the ends of justice
should be satisfied, but none of them proved feasible.
Amongst others it was proposed by a Learned Counsel
to obtain a special order from the Court as the only pro-
bable means of enforcing the wishes of the Jury, and
obedience on the part of the unruly bees ; but as it is
generally known that the Judges are very reluctant to
direct any proceedings to be taken which they have no
legal power to enforce, this course was also abandoned,
and consequently the prisoner, much to his astonishment
and delight, was acquitted, there being no proof cf the
identity of the stolen hive 1

to lodgers, and the third was used by his mother.
Ile himself resided with his family about five miles
from Marlow ; but he occasioually slept in the room oc-
cupied by his mother, and the.furniture in it belonged to
him. The premises were valued at ill., but he hid let
a yard for 11. 12s. a-year.
The Committee decided that the vote was a good one.:

In the course of the day a long discussion—arose be-

NEW ZEALAND.

Intelligence has been received from Port Nicholson,
in New Zealand, to the 27th November. The second
colony sent .out by the. New Zealand Company has
arrived. It is headed by Captain Arthur Wakefield,
well known to his brother officers in the Navy for his
professional zeal and intelligence, and his general
popularity. Captain Hobson, the Governor of New
Zealand, who has been engaged in the attempt to
force into existence a settlement originated by him-
self, at Auckland, remote from the sites chosen by
settlers from England and New South Wales,
interferes in the affairs of other plantations
rather in the spirit of a rival colonizer than of a
British Governor anxious to promote the settle-
ment of the whole islands ; and in this instance
he interfered to prevent the second colony from set-
tling where the Company's officers intended, in
Cooper's Bay, on the west coast of the Middle
Island. The colony was therefore placed within the
limits of the Company's territory, but still in the same
island, at Blind Bay, on the southern coast of Cook's
Strait (the Northern coast of Middle Island). Here,
as luck would have it, they were compensated for the
loss of their first wish by finding an excellent harbour
and an ample tract of rich land; and the colony of
Nelson was founded with every prospect of the most
favourable career. All went on well at Port Nichol-
son.—Spectator.

A GOOD WORD AT , SUI'rOSED PARTING. Lord
Hill is at length about to retire from the army, and it is
but justice to say, that, he lays dow Ii his authority with
the respect and good will of all parties. No man hold-
ing like him a statio`n of great power and patronage for
so many years, and indepement of al! constitutional con-
trol, could have carried himself with more moderation or
less offence.—Dublin Monitor.

The other day, as some parties were sawing an oak
tree into planks, at Willington Wharf, they discovered a
knife-blade embedded in the solid wood, 9f inches below
the bark. The tree grew on Needwood Forest, and, it is
Supposed the knife-blade originally belonged to some
deer stealers, who had stuck it in the tree and forgotten
it. Derby Reporter.

UNION HALL-THIS DAY.)

William Pace was charged with stealing a bay- mare,
the property of. James Thomas. The prisoner is a horse
' clipper ; and, on Thursday last, the complainant, a
tradesman in Lambeth-walk, went into a public house in
that neighbourhood, and seeing a man there whom he
previously knew, desired him to take the bay mare out
of the stable, and go and sell it at Smithfield market.
The prisoner, overhearing the conversation, went di.
rectly to the complainant's stable, and taking the mare
out, went and sold it to a horse dealer, and converted the
money to his own use. He was afterwards taken into
custody drunk, and a portion of the money for which he
sold the horse found in his possession.—Committed.

Robert Dell was charged-with breaking into the house
of his uncle, and stealing several articles.

The complainant stated that on the preceding night
the prisoner broke into his house and stole several
articles of ironmongery, with which he was in the act of
leaving the premises, when he was stopped by a police-
man, and the property found in his possession. The
uncle added, that the prisoner being his nephew he did
not wish to prosecute, but hoped that he would go to sea.
The prisoner having consented to enter her Majesty's
service, he was therefore given up to his uncle.

WORSHIP-STREET-(THIS DAY.)
BRUTAL ASSAULT.—James Le Mann, a fellow of dis-
sipated appearance, was charged with having committed
a violent and unprovoked assault upon Robert William-
son, a boy twelve years of age.
It appeared that the complainant was proceeding
along Goswell-street on the preceding evening, when
the prisoner (who was very much intoxicated)
crossed over from the opposite side of the way,
and without receiving the slightest provocation, com-
menced a violent attack upon him, and struck him
several blows in the face, the marks of which were
still apparent. The prisoner was immediately taken
into custody by police constable, G 30, who witnessed
the outrage, and whose attention had been pre-
viously attracted towards the prisoner in consequence
of the blasphemous and threatening language which
he used to other persons, many of whom ran into the
road in order to avoid him. The prisoner had been
several times in custody on similar charges, and It was
stated that his intellects had become impaired from the
effects of the long continued habits of drunkenness in
which he had indulged.
The prisoner was ordered to pay a fine of 205., or be
committed to the House of Correction for 21 days.

ELECTION COMMITTEES.
(THIS DAY.)
GREAT MARLOW.
The Committee met again this morning at eleven.
The sitting Member is still in a minority of one.
The vote of John Davis was objected to by Mr. Austin
on the ground of non-occupation and want of value.
The evidence in the case had not been gone through
at the hour of our going to press.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Two, young men 'of fashionable' appearance, whose
names were enteredlon the charge-sheet as Henry Smith
and James Jackson, but who are said to belong to two
very noble families, were placed at the bar, charged with
wrenching off knockers and ringing door-bells in Re-
gent-street, at two o'clock on Friday morning.
Police.constable, No. 81 of the C division, stated that
he saw the defendants walking together in Regent-street,
and overheard ono say to the other,'" I wonder Where
we can get some nice knockers to-night ?" which in-
duced him to watch them for some distance ; but they
somehow eluded his observance, and in a short time
afterwards he discovered that the knocker had been
wrenched from off the door of Mr. Gabriel, 135, Regent-
street, and broken, and the pieces left close by on the
pavement. In about twenty minutes after the defendants
again made their appearance in Argyll-place, and from
thence proceededinto Regent-street again, knocking and
ringing at several different houses on their way. Witness
having obtained the assistance of another constable,
followed and took them into custody, the defendant
Smith being at the instant in the act of endeavouring to
wrench off a knocker, and Jackson violently pulling the
bell. They were taken to the station house, but were
shortly afterwards liberated on bail.
Inspector Baker, of the C division, informed the Ma-
gistrate that the defendant Jackson was a short time ago
fined at this Court for a similar offence. He then gave
a different name.
Mr. Gabriel then came forward, and said he. wished to
charge the defendant with felony ; they had to all in-
tents and purposes, stolen his knocker, which would cost
him 10s. to, replace.
Mr. HARDWICK said he regretted that the evidence
was not sufficiont to sustain the charge.

Mr. Gabriel said that the housekeepers of liegent
street ought to be protected from the repeated acts of
damage and annoyance to which they were subjected.
Mr. HARDWICK said he should in all such cases deal
as severely with them a:: the law allowed.
The defendant Smith denied the charge altogether, and
Jackson said he was so much intoxicated that he did not
know what he did.
Mr. HARDWICK said he should impose the highest
fine 40s. on each, and he was surprised that persons who
called themselves gentlemen, and who from their age
ought to know better, should conduct themselves in such
a foolish, mischievous, and disgraceful manner.
The defendants immediately paid the fines, Smith
saying, "If it had been 401. we must have our lark."
And then addressing the policeman who took them into
custody, added, " Now, Spooney, what will you get by
it?—you have only been kept ot.t of your bed by meddling
with us."

head winds almost all the voyage ; she has 35 passen-
gers. The steamer Acadia arrived at Halifax on the
16th, in 12i days, and the Margaret steamer from
this port in 14} days. The Great Western had not
reached New York when the last accounts left that
city. The American papers contain the correspon-
dence between Lord Ashburton and Mr. Webster, re-
lative to the late treaty.
The Duke and Duchess of Leuchtenberg arrived at
Vienna on the 22d ult. They were expected to re-
main a fortnight.
A private letter from Madrid, published in the
Memorial Bordelais, says that the Spanish Govern-
ment will shortly publish a decree of amnesty, but it
will contain many exceptions.
The Italian Opera season opened on Saturday
evening at Paris.
The report of the death of M. Eugene Bore, the
Eastern traveller, turns out to be unfounded. He
arrived at Constantinople on the 20th August. Let-
ters dated the 6th ult. have been received from him.
The railroad from Berlin to Frankfort- on-the-

On Thursday the commanding officers of the regi-
ments in Paris gave a farewell dinner to his Royal
Highness the Duke d'Aumale, previous to his depar-
ture for Algeria.
A Paris letter in the Augsburgh Gazette, states
that the Duke of Orleans had executed, shortly before
his death, some excellent strategic maps of the two
sides of the Rhine and of the States on its banks, as
well as of all the projected railroads in Germany.
These maps have, it is said, by the King's orders,
been collected together at the Etat-Major General.
Workmen are employed at present in deepening
the bed of the river Morgon, which runs through
the town of Villefranche, in order to prevent those
inundations which have from time to time caused such
devastations. A few days since the workmen in
d'gging discovered several coins of the time of the
Roman emperors, a number of abbatial medals, some
small silver crucifixes, &c.
A letter from Rome states that the Papal police are
on the alert to seize copies of an Italian book printed
in London, and distributed profusely throughout Italy,
containing infamous calumnies upon the Church and
the Papal Government.
The Amsterdam Gazette publishes the Imperial
ukase of the Emperor of Russia authorising the raising
of a loan bearing interest at 4 per cent., to meet the
expenditure required for the execution of the railroad
between St. Petersbugh and Moscow.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.

A meeting was held last week at the Southwark
Literary Institution to oppose the Bill now before
Parliament, for removing the interment of the dead
from towns. Mr. Bradford said he was the proprietor
of the Lower-fields, Bunhill Burying-ground in
Golden-lane, which land had cost 20,0001., and an
additional 3,0001. had been expended upon the pro-
perty. There was a chapel capable of containing 500
individuals, under which there were large catacombs
and vaults. If this Bill passed, he should like to know
what was to become of this property?
