Sunday two of the felons confined in Chester Castle
fought in the Court-yard of that prison, when one of
them plunged a knife so deep into the bowels of his
opponent that he is not expected to recover.
Monday a warrant arrived at Chester for the exe-
cution of /War, who was convicted at the last Assizes
of uttering forged Bank of England notes. Allen
was previously to his trial regarded as a respectable
farmer, but had been a kind of wholesale dealer in
forged notes.

of the Devon County Gaol, charged on suspicion
of High Treason."--Their names are John John-
stone, Sarturel Drummond, and Joseph [leaky, the
14tter is a surgeon, and all are of respectable appear-
ance ; they are from the neighbourhood of Manches-
ter, hut came last from Dorchester, where the Prison,
ii appears, is too full to accommodate them in the
way Government wishes to have them treated, and
which the crowded state of the gaol at Exeter will
also render equally difficuv-.

rent general demand ; on Thursday 617

of the very ordinary qualities, a ccmsideral
sion took place ; generally every description

Dutch, with colour, sold higher in proportion titan
any other quality ; the request for Coffee was,bef.
ever, both general and extensive ; the whole of dx
quantity brought forward went off freely ; the de-
cline may entirely be attributed to the large sales
brought forward—good ordinary Jamaica Coffee,
formerly 745. and 745. 6d. sold at 725. to 72f. 61
every other description nearly in the same proportias.

AftttsarCatt INTILLIGINCR.--The news received y"
terday from the United States, to the Ist ult. is cot
favourable. Trade has considerably revived, sad
English Cotton goods, Woollens, Iron, and Earthen-
ware, were all selling at a considerable advance. The
following is an extract of a letter from New Nees;
" NSW OILLIANS, FaIaVAIT SC--Only about SSOblitla ai
Sew crop Tobacco have yet arrived, and that sold fer .iett
Lars, it was of the very best quality. The quantity expected ato
ring the months of March and April is About 4S to 50.0,01t534
and prime will, no doubt, be as low as fire and six dollars. FAI
is now sellinz at 17 dollars, and not more than £OO barrels hi hit
bands : the cause of so little Flour being in tLe market is the ex;
treme cold weather, which has frozen the wtsterri waters, 31'3
prevented the boats from descend:rig—in a abort dine, I:were.
we expect abundant suppli,:s, and a Coaftquent reducti,,n in pro
will take place. Our crop of Cotton has, no doubt, heels matr
natty injured in quantity and quality by the roe, r.c 1 it will xftt
exceed A) or 60,000 bales, more than half of which a Alread,
