we learn that an outbreak had taken place among the prisoners
at Norfolk Istand, which was not put dawn until four police-
officers were killed.

M. de Fabron, a passenger from Guadaloupe, has been dele-
gated to advance the money for compensation on the emanci-
pation of the negro population in the French islands.
The news from the other islands is unimportant, excepting
the favourable reports generally as to the growing crops. The
41ith Regiment at Jamaica and the 71st at Barhadoes hake re-
ceived orders for Cork, and the Vengeance and Belleisle are
acketed out to take them.

We have our usu,.. a papers by the Forth, by
which we learn that the House of Assembly had been opened
by the Lieutenant-Governor, in the absence of His Excellency
Sir Charles Grey. There is like to be a brisk session. A bill
has been brought in forreducing all the salaries of public offi-
cers, including the clergy. The subject of proposing an in-
come-tax had been suggested. The agitation on the Sugar
Duties Bill was kept up,, numerous meetings had been held in
different localities, and resolutions had been passed by the
Assembly to the effect, that the policy pursued by the Imperial
Parliament towards the West India colonies has been most de-
trimental, and that the Sugar Duties Bill passed last session
must tend to cemplete their ruin. They also express their
strong conviction, that, with a limited protection, and a fair
measure of support from the parent state in procuring free
African labourers, the colonies might have been restored to
prosperity, but that the withholding that assistance will aggra-
vate the misery of the African race, and endanger the colonies.

DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 17

Our markets are again higher than the three preceding mar-
kets. Wheat as well as Barley having advanced Is per barrel,
and Oats 6d. Wheat is now worth afis, <Vs to 44s 6d per barrel;
Barley, 24s to 275; Oats, 185 to 21s; Flour, '2ss to _ss; and
Oatmeal, 23s to 25s ; the last being the highest we remember
Oatmeal to bring. It must be admitted, from the extent of the
consumption—there being now double the number of bakers'
shop:- that were six months ago—that relief must only he looked
for in direct importations from abroad, and that of Indian Corn,
to supply the loss of the Potato crop. We need hardly inform
our readers that while the direct irrnacrtations into Liverpool
and other E giish ports are taken up at the price of the day for
France and Belgium, where the free importation of Wheat and
Flour has just been permitted. it is in vain to look for lower
prices for, we fear, some time to come.

Our notice of " Rowland Bradshaw," cannot appear until next

We have received from T. R. £l, for the destitute Irish, which

deserves agitation. _

We had marked for insertion the letter of " S," but we hope the

fisi its postponement

We will ende'avour to answer next week the string of queries
sent by " A constant reader." We had not time yesterday
for the necessary references.

In the first week of January, the STANDARD will be

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, DEC. 19

The past week has been one of great excitement in the Corn
trade, and every article connected with it has been eagerly
sought after at rapidly advancing prices. The demand for Ire-
land continlzes on a most extensive and unprecedented scale,—
the wants of that country daily developing themselves with
more urgency and force.
At Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday, a large business was
done, at greatly enhanced rates.
We have a good attendance at this day's market, and Wheat
of all descriptions is readily saleable at an advance of 6d to 8d
per bushel. The stock of free Flour is much reduced, f r all
qualities there is a good inquiry, and we raise our quotations
4s to is per sack, aini 3s per barrel. Scarcely any Oats or Meal
offering, the former 2d to 3d per bushel, and the latter 3s per
load dearer. Barley for grinding is 6d per bushel. Egyptian
Beans 35 to 45 per quarter, and Boiling Pease fully as per
quarter higher than this day week.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, DEC. 18.
The market opened on Monday with a very animated demand,
an additional impulse being given by the arrival of the Great
Western, with accounts of very small shipments, and a confir-
mation of the previous low estimates of crop ; the sales on that
day amounted to 45,040 hales. During the 1 st two or three
days there has been less animation, au•d extreme previous rates
have not been maintained, and the market closes with some ir-
regu'arity. establishing an advance of id to id upon American
and Brazil, id to id for Surat, and id per 10. for all other tle-
scr ptions. IVO Sea Island and Stained were offered by auction
to day, of which 740 sold at full prices. Speen' ators have taken
76,80 u American, 12,0110 Maranham, tore Bahia. 400 Pernam, 100
West India, 2,500 Egyptian, arid 12,600 Surat, and Exporters
