368 6d to 378 per cwt, and there are not further sellers under
the latter rate.

Maunritus.—This afternoon the parcels sold privately
were at a slight advance in prices, 167 bags at public stile
went at 42s 6d to 45s 6d for washed, and at 42s to 47s 6d per
c•rfc for syrupy.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon Manilla sugar met with
more attention, and 774 bags at auction, duty paid, sold at
eti r rates ; strong grey-6h yellow fetching 48s to 48s 6d, low
47, 6d, and washed 45s 6d. Of Penang 57 bags were disposed
of at 41s 6d for good strorg brown but damp. Bengal of
all qualities was in good request privately, and brought stiff
rates.

FOREIGN'.--There has been more desire shown to pur-
chase yellow Havannah by ptivute treaty, but holders not
being dispased to take former rates; business t,f momeo! has
.been prevented. White is held with firmness. White Brazil
fias been more inquired after, but holders not baing dispesel
posed to accept previous plices, there has been little busi-
ness done. In Brown there has been more business
done, and at a slight advance in prices. Of Rico some parcels
have been sold, and at prices that could not I.e obtained ;pre-
viouslv. The market has decidedly an improving appear-
ance 'for Foreign Sugar. .

COFFEE.—This afternoon there was little desire shown to
purchase Mocha Coffee, and 122 pkgs at auction were nearly
all taken-in at 58s for middling greenisli which is above the
value: a part sold at 53s to 53s 6d for middling brownish. Of
Ceylon the quantity offered at public sale was very large and
amounted to 6,278 bags; the whole, however, found pur
chases. Plantation fetched full rates, but Native went Gd
per cwt cheaper, fine and fine fine ordinary greyish Planta-
tion sidid at Ms to 625.

TEA.—There has generally been more activity in the
market this week, but prices are prevented from improv-
ing for Black or Green by the large stock here. In Con.
you a good business has been transacted, in consequence
of merchants being willing sellers upon former terms.
Pouchong has been Kid to a fair extent at 4d to 10d.
Twankay is wanted, and prices ruled firm. For Hyson prices
rule low, the stock being very large,but several parcels have
been taken. Gunpowder is dull of sale, and there are sellers
upon low terms. Imperial has been purchased with caution.
In Scented Orange Pekoe there has been more business
transact ed.

SrJcEs.—This afternoon Nutmegs met with attention, and
10 casks at auction sold at stiffer rates, 9 chests of cloves
ere taken in at is lld for damp Penang. Pepper is only
in limited demand, and 880 bags Malabar at auction were
taken in at 3h, to 3i Of white 41 bags sold at 44d to
4gd per lb. Mace is rot much wanted. 46 bags African
Ginger went at 38s to 38s 6d per cwt.
RUM. BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—There has been a strong
desire shown to purchase all qualities of Jamaica Rum for
home consumption and exportation this week ; indeed the
market has been nearly cleared, and the rates paid exhibit an
advance on those previously quoted of ld to 2d per gallon.
Demerara is much wanted, and prices are still on the rise.
There are many purchasers of Leeward Island at stiff rates,
but the supply at market is not ample for the demand. Cal-
cutta is much wanted, and commands stiffer rates—sales of
proof made at is lld to 2s, and for 100 lihds of very
fine and strong 2s paid for proof strength.
The stock of all descriptions of RUfra is on the de-
crease ; whilst the deliveries are on the increase.
Brandy of all sorts has been purchased with increased free-
dom, and a large business had been transacted at higher
rates. The stock is still on the increase at Geneva. The ad-
vanced rate of lOs 6d per. gallon nett cash, which occurred
last week for British Corn Spirits is well supported. Gin is
fetching 8s lOd for 22, and 9s 4d for 17 per cent. under
proof, and the market looks very firm.
HOPS.—There has been only a limited business transacted,
but FaCtors sae undispesed to take lower rates; picking is
nearly finished, and the accounts relative to the yield are
mostly unfavourable. The new samples are not iu general
so good as could be wished—or as was the case in former
seasons.

shown to purchase Cochineal, and three parcels offered at
public sale, amounting to 139 bags, were all sold at very
lull rates.

with Rough, and two parcels were offend at public sale, con-
sisting of 3,529 bags of Calcutta; the demand was good, and
the principal part was actually disposed of at an advance of
3d per cwt. on former rates.

'seed Oil for home consumption, and further advanced rates
are given. Rapeseed has been in demand, and prices have risen.

advanced rates are given. Cocoa Nut has been in excellent
demand. For Olive prices are not so firm. For Seal Oil

lodged at his house, No. 19, New-street, Deptford. They
were at dinner in the kitchen. Witness was present smoking
a pipe at the fire-side. Prisoner and her husband were jar-
ring together. The prisoner had been out drinking some-
where before dinner. Her husband wag Otte sober. Afew
words ensued, when she seized hold of -the knife produeed
(a white-handled table knife), and without saying anything.
until after she had used it, siabbed him in the face, soaking
a wound several inches long. The cut went completely
through to his teeth. She then made a blow at his side with
the knife, saying that she would " finish" him. Thinking
that the man would bk murdered, he knocked the prisoner
001V11, mid forced the knife from her. Witness then ran and
called a police constab;e. The r oliceman and prisoner w ent
out, and witness accompanied the prosecutor to a chemst's
shop in Flagon-row, where he had prompt surgical

, .
Mr. Edward Dowling, police surgeon, attended the prosl-
cutor. The wound intlieted was a circular one of the • left
cheek, and extended through the cheek to his teeth, and
must have.caused a lea; ful loss of blood. It was doubtful for
some time after whether the pobr. man would survive, owing
to the great exhaustion from lo:s of blood.
..The prisoner was then fully_ committed to Newgate for
trial.
