DUTY ON CATTLE.

The Duke of RICHMOND presented petitions from
Kirkmichael, and other places in Banff, praying
the House not to pass the tariff without giving proper
protection to the agricultural interests, more particularly
as referred to the impOrtation of live stock. He very
much regretted that his Noble Friend had not paid some,
attention to what he stated yesterday, and on previous
occasions, relative to the agricultural interests ; he viewed
with a great deal of anxiety the great changes which had
been made in the tariff;, inasmuch as the proposed
alterations could not be of benefit to, but must
very much injure the agriculturists. He was sure that
farmers did not wish for their own aggrandisement.
at the expense of other classes of the community ; but.
he was afraid that this running from 'one extreme to
another would cause the lowering of wages to a great
extent, and that much misery and distress must neces-
sarily be entailed on that very valnable class of people,
the agricultural labourers.
The Earl of RIPON said he was of opinion that the
proposed alteration in the- tariff would not at all affect
the interests of the agriculturists either one way
or the other. He spoke on this subject from a
very considerable experience in the matter. He
remembered at' the time when the market was
about to be opened to the admission of cattle from
Ireland, great fear; were entertained by his constituents,
and representations to that effect were made to him ; he
did not apprehend anything from it himself, and ho told
them so at the time, and the result had proved that he
was correct in his ideas. His reason for making this
alteration in the tariff was because it was impossible
le maintain a prohibition upon any principle that
could be understood,-,-(Hear, hear.) It was considered
necessary, looking at the daily increasing population,
that some means should be taken to prevent food from
rising-too high, without inflicting great -injury on the
-agriculturists. Then the quarters whence cattle could.
be exported to England were only two, viz. a portion of
the kingdom of Denmark (the Duchy of Holstein), and
a portion of the kingdom of Holland. In France, and
in the German League, comprising a population of
26,000,000, meat was imported because it had arisen to so
high a price; when, therefore, it was considered that there
wald be 91,000,000 of people, all competiting to obtain
this small quantity of cattle which could be expected

The most rational motives to Lzfe Assurance are found in
the plan adopted by this Society ; viz. joined to a secure
provision at death for inheritors of the Assured, the Society
affords succour to the Assured himself (proportioned to pre-
vious payments) in the event of unforeseen reverses.

All the advantages peculiar to mutual Lite Assurance, aris-
ing from a division amongst the assured of the whole of the
mutual Profits, and that security and freedom from responsibi-
lity which Proprietary Companies can alone afford, are com-
bined by the constitution of the London, Edinburgh, and
Dublin Life Assurance Company, which is the only guaranteed
Mutual Society. The rates of premium are somewhat. lower
than in most of the mutual offices, and for the non-participating,
and for those who effect assurances for temporary purposes, or
debtor and creditor transactions, Tables of Premium have been
prepared, by which a less immediate payment is required than
by any other plan.
By a half premium credit system one-half of the premium•
may be retained for the first seven years, and repaid at Coe con-
venience of the assured : and by the Ascending Scale a greatly
diminished rate of premium is required for the first twelve years.

Especially to that Important Class of Assurances effected as
FAMILY PROVISIONS.
A, in January, 1820, being then 38 years of age, insured his
life for 3,000/. paying an annual Premium of £93 is. 6d.
He is now 60 years of age, and has an actual vested Bonus or
Addition, declared and attached to his Policy of £1,035 125.,
which, with the 3,0001., the original sum assured, shows the

full amount of the sum presently contained in the Policy to

be £4,035 12s.
He may if desirous receive an Advance or Loan, on the secu-
rity of his Policy, (the only expense being the stamp for the
Promissory Note), to the amount of ...... ..£1,440.
Were A to die after Payment of his premium for the current
year, the sum payable under the Policy would be £4,358 9s.
Were he to die, in 1845, after payment of his premium for that
year,the sum payable under the Policy wouldbe£4,6oo 11s. 641.
Or if it were an object to him to reduce his present annual
contribution, he ms,lht, by giving up his Bonus, reduce his
future premiums from 93/. 7s. 6d. to • £22 9s. 6d.
Or if he preferred receiving immediately the present value of
his Bonus, he would, by surrendering it, be entitled to a

From the above it will be observed, that a policy steadily
kept up during a prolonged life, will not only at death prove a
very valuable inheritance indeed, but may also during the life-
time of the party, be useful, especially to those engaged in mer-
cantile pursuits, and be made available to the most valuable
purposes.

Egypt is still suffering from the murrain among the
oxen. The loss is estimated at 150,000 head of cattle.
Next year's crops are likely to be seriously affected
by this loss. The cavalry and artillery are dismounted,
and the horses sent to the shifflicks to assist inlagri-
culture.

POTATO MARKET.

We have to report a moderate arrival of potatos,
from all quarters, since our last; yet as the supply on
hand is large for the season, the demand has again
rated dull, at but little variation in prices. A few tons
have come to hand from Ireland, but they have pro-
duced low figures. Our present rates are as follow—
York reds, 55s to 60s per ton ; Scotch ditto, 45s to
50s ; Devons, 45s to 50s ; Kent, Essex, and Suffolk
whites; 40s to 455 Wisbeach, 38s to os; Jersey

whites, 30s to 35s ; Jersey and Guernsey blues, 40
to 455; Yorkshire Prince Regents, 45s to 50s.

WOOL 1191.11.RICET.
The Wool sales, so far as they have proceeded, have
proved satisfactory to the importers, the prices realised
having exceeded those of the preceding auctions by
about id per lb. The imports in the week have been
small, they having consisted of about 400 bales, chiefly
from the East Indies. Our private contract demand,
for the best British Wools, is somewhat more ani-
mated; but in foreign lambs exceedingly little is doing.
TALLOW
Since our last the market hasecontinued firm, and
the price rather on the advance ; the delivery is also
better. The last advices from St. Petersburgh state
that there were several vessels driven back, and that
about 1,500 casks would certainly be detained by the
frost, and about 13,000 casks remain over. The total
shipments this season about 111,000 casks:

JOSEPH JENKINS ; or, Leaves from the Life
of a Literary Man.
By the Author of " Random Recollections," " The Great
Metropolis," &c. &c.

" The extraordinary exposures which Mr. Grant has here
made respecting the corrupt state of literary criticism in Lon-
don, will spread dismay among the parties implicated, and ex-
cite a sensation in the literary world."
" This is not a novel, but, like all the author's other works,
a book of enduring interest. Mr. Grant has daguerrotyped
society. We are indebted to him for the fullest and fairest
pictures of metropolitan life in all its aspects ever given, or
which could even be gathered from all other works put to-
gether. No man has been more behind the scenes of busy life;
and no man has better preserved his impartiality in the con-
templation. "—Met ropolit an.

BOROUGH HOP MARKET.

We have had a very heavy inquiry for each kind of
Hops during the past week, yet we cannot call the
prices lower. For shipment to France a few bags of
old Hops have found purchasers at very low rates.
The supply of new Hops on offer is large, which
move off at the following rates :—East Kent, in
pockets, 51 lOs to 6/ 6s ; Mid Kents, ditto,
Si 5s to 61; Sussex, 41 lOs to 51 8s ; Farnhams, 81 to

DEATII OF THE COUNTESS OF MUNSTER.—This la

mented lady has not long survived her ill •fated
hus-
band, having died at her house in Portland-place on
Saturday last. Her Ladyship, Mary Wyndham, was
daughter of the late Earl of Egremont, and married
her late husband in Oct. 1819, whom she survived not
quite nine months. Several children, including the
Earl of Munster, who is in his 19th year, survive their
parents.

- REVIVAL OF THE SERGE MANUFACTORY.--We are
happy to find that the good news from India and China
has had the effect of reanimating the serge manufac-
tories in Devon, which had been drooping for some
time past. The extensive factories for this article at
Ashburton and neighbourhood, have been set upon full
work this week; and we are informed that the inha-
bitants seem inspired with a new life, at the prospect
of a revival of the exportation trade to the East.—

INCENDIARY FIRE AT S E VENHAMPTON, NEAR

HIGHWORTH. WELLS.—One of those diabolical acts
which disgrace the poorer Englishmen, has been com-
mitted on the farm in the occupation of Mr. Chilling-
worth at Sevenhampton. A fattening stall, contain-
ing seven fat cows for the Christmas market, was dis-
covered to be fired on Saturday night, about seven
o'clock; and, in consequence of a quantity of straw
and haulm being in and near the stall, five of the
beasts were burnt alive, and the other two so much
injured, that they were obliged to be killed. In addi-
tion to which, a large hay rick was destroyed. From
circumstances that have transpired, there is a hope of
the villain being discovered. The crime is aggra-
vated by the fact of Mr. Chillingworth being a good
master, and a kind humane man. We are happy to
state he is insured.

We understand that it will be found necessary to
take down and rebuild several of the bridges on the
Eastern Cuunties Railway: The third Kelvedon-
bridge has exhibited symptoms of insecurity, and the
Boreham bridge is shored up to prevent its falling.—

MARKET NEWS.

CORN EXCHANGE-MONDAY.

Since our report on this day se'nnight, we have re-
ceived a very moderate time-of-year supply of Eng-
lish Wheat, coastwise as well as by land carriage,
and samples, and we had scarcely any put up to-day,
from either Essex or Kent.

The stands being very poorly supplied, and the
attendance of both town and country buyers rather
more numerous tthan of late, we have to report a
somewhat improved inquiry for all descriptions, and
the sales concluded were fully equal to those noted on
Monday last, while a fair clearance WM effected.
There was rather more inquiry for fine Foreign
Wheat at full rates of currency; but in bonded
parcels scarcely anything was doing. The
duty still remains at 20s. per quarter. We
had another heavy market for Barley, and the
quotations receded ls per quarter from last week.
Foreign Barley was little sought after. Good Ware
Malt was taken by the dealers at last currencies ; but
the middling and, inferior kinds were mending, and
might have been purchased on easier terms.
From Ireland, about 25,000 quarters of Oats
have come to hand ; but the arrivals of that article
from Scotland and our own coasts have been small.
The best Potatoe kinds maintained their value, but
other kinds were 6d per quarter lower. Beans and
Peas were very dull, and mostly is per quarter
cheaper. The Flour trade was inactive, at about sta-
tionary prices.

LONDON :
TUESDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 6, 1842.

We must warn our friends north of the Tweed
that a serious de sign is entertained of urging Sir
. ROBERT PEEL to. put an end to their small note
circulation. Theiir untiring and successful enter-
prise rouses the t aivy of their southern competi-
tors, and envy will not allow trifles to stop its
dogged course. 1n seeking for the causes of
their success only legislative peculiarities arrest
the attention of superficial minds. Superior edu-
cation is overlook:ed, and their success according-
ly is all attribut ed to their legal small bank-note
circulation. Such tricks hays been played by the
banking gentry i n England, that no hope can be
entertained of r e viving the small bank-note cir-
culation here, aca 1 therefore all the energy of envy
will be directed to put an end to the small note
circulation of Scotland, and place the competing
classes in both parts of the empire, as is said, on
the same footing.
The operatiom s have been commenced by flat-
tering Sir R. PEZEL. The currency, it is affirmed,
is in a state of confusion disgraceful to a well
regulated State. Such monstrous anomalies exist
AS a paper circulation in one end of the island
which is not allowed in the other, and which per-
petually causes a derangement in the whole
currency, peculiarly injurious to the south,
'where the payments are made in the precious
metals. Of coarse, this is fudge, for no payments
beyond ten pounds are ever made in coin in Eng-
land, and the bulk of all manufacturing. business
comprises much lihrger sums than ten pounds.
Nevertheless, in the present distressed and dis-
contented condition of the manufacturers and

i
,nerchants, they eagerly grasp at any straw which
promises to keep them from drowning. Hoping-

NEVIGATE AND LEADENNALL.

From Scotland, Yorkshire, and the west of Eng-
land, very large supplies of slaughtered meat have
come to hand since this day se'nnight, for the most
part owing to the mildness of the weather, in very
middling and inferior conditions ; and, in order to
effect clearances, the salesmen have, in many instances,
been compelled to accept of nominally low rates, in-
volving, in several cases, a severe loss to the owners.
The quantity of London killed meat, on offer, has
proved large, yet the finest qualities have ruled
tolerably steady, at about stationary prices, but,
otherwise, the trade has proved dull, and the curren-
cies have had a downward tendency.

The most rational motives to Life Assurance are found in
the plan adopted by this Society ; viz, joined to a secure
provision at death for inheritors of the Assured, the Society
affords succour to the Assured himself (proportioned to pre-
vious payments) i i the event of unforeseen reverses.

not at all consulted on it ; and I considered it was in such
good hands that I did not interfere.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—The language of the Act
was not very clear ; his motion was made in order to
raise the question, and he thought it could be much
more conveniently done in that Court than in the Court
of Chancery. His motion would be for a rule to show
cause why the cause should not be set down for argu-
ment in their Lordships' paper ; for he contended that
the record had been given up to the Court of Chancery
by a mistake, and that it ought to be restored.
Lord ADINGEA—The first decision upon such a case
ought to be made by the Lord Chancellor. Why should
we be called upon to decide a case in which we might
appear to be stretching our own jurisdiction. The Lord
Chancellor was perfectly competent to construe any Act
of Parliament ; he had experience in both Courts. They
would bow with deference to his decision, but they were
at present of opinion that all their jurisdiction had ceased.
However, if the Lord Chancellor sent back the record,
they would deal with it.—Rule refused.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Jan. 11
EDWARDS V. LORD GLENGALL.

This was an action upon certain bills of exchange,
drawn by the defendant. The cause was set down for
trial by special jury, in the sittings of last term.
In consequence of the non-performance of a peremptory
undertaking on the part of the plaintiff, in which the
trial was postponed, Mr. Sergeant Bompas obtained a
rule absolute for a nonsuit. But on the subsequsent ap-
plication of Mr. Sergeant Talfourd (upon affidavits that
plaintiff had not been able to find out some necessary
witnesses and obtain the attendance of others from the
Continent), the rule for a nonsuit was withdrawn, and
a rule nisi given for tho trial of the cause this term.
