week, and the trade has had rather a languid aspect, still we have
no alteration to report in the value of any description. Imports
this week 45 bags, previously this year 233 bags ; total 283 bags.
Foreign there was a fair inquiry for most sorts, and a slight re-
duction in prices would have induced more extensive sales, but
holders, looking to the present stocks, do not appear willing to
accept lower terms. Imports this week 1;3 bags, previously this
year 1132 bags, total 1330 bags.

RESPITE OF FROST, WILLIAMS, AND JONES.

The Attorney and Solicitor-General, and some of
the Judges, had an interview with Lord Normanby,
at the -Home-office, last evening ; after which a respite
(we understand) was sent (by post) to Monmouth, for
Frost, Williams, and Jones. It is expected that their
fate will be finally settled at the cabinet council sitting
to-day. In the course of this morning an immense
number of petitions, praying her Majesty to spare the
lives of the prisoners, were received at the Home-office
from all parts of the country.—Standard of yesterday.

LIVERPOOL MARKETS.-THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE.

Although the late high winds have materially abated, the
arrivals of Wheat and other Grain into this port are still
unimportant ; about 6000 sacks of Irish Oatmeal, and 6000
barrels of American Flour, forming the principal supplies
fresh up for to-day.
Since our account of Tuesday last, the proceedings in the
Corn Trade here have been generally upon a limited scale.
The leading articles, nevertheless, continued to be held with
rather more firmness ; and for Wheat, in consequence of the
gradually decreasing stock in granary, somewhat higher prices
were required.

The duty on Oats is increased to 12s. 3d., on Beans to Bs.
per quarter, and upon all other Foreign Produce remains un-
altered.

At our market this morning, upon a slender attendance of
buyers, and the millers, having bought freely in the early part
of the week, evinced little disposition to purchase extensively
to-day, the transactions in Wheat therefore were only mode-
rate in amount; without any diminution in the confidence
of holders, however, all descriptions of old fully maintained
the rates of Tuesday, and in a few partial instances such ob-
tained a slight improvement in value, whilst the general
qualities of new being mostly damp and ordinary, were very
difficult of sale and rather cheaper..

In English and Irish, Flour continued to meet very little
notice, and scarcely supported former prices ; foreign, duty
paid, on the contrary, commanded fully as high terms as be-
fore, and 3,000 to 4,000 barrels of States Flour have again
changed hands at about 30s. _ _

Barley, upon a moderate demand, sustained our last cur-
rency ; and Malt, being scarce, was quite as dear as on Tues-
day.—Beans and Pease in slow request, and the turn lower.
Oats being rather more saleable, realized a small advance ;
but Oatmeal, in the absence of country dealers, met a very
dull sale at a slight depression in value.

THE CHARTISTS AT MONMOIJTH

Mr. WARLEY presented a petition from 40 persons ap-
pointed at a public meeting to constitute a committee on the
subject respecting the chartists of Wales, convicted of high
treason—namely Frost, Williams, and ones, praying the
house to adopt an address to her Majesty to give effect to the
recommendations of the juries for mercy. The hon. member
said that it was not his intention to found any motion on the
petition ; he should leave the subject in the hands of the Go-
vernment. 'The petitioners represented that they urgently
approached the house; because they had heard with some
consternation, that preparations were making for the execu-
tion even during the time that arguments were proceeding be-
fore all the judges in Westminster Hall, on the point of law
reserved by the judges of the special commission on the trial
of the prisoners.
Most of the notices that stood on the paper were then de-
ferred, in order to make way for the motion of the evening.
Several questions, however, were then put.
Mr. FECTOR asked whether Government had taken any
part in the negotiations of Begara ; and also whether they had
sanctioned in any way the detention of Don Carlos ?
Lord PALMERSTON, in answer, said that any direct part
had not been taken by her Majesty's agents there ; but that
the British officers in the north of Spain had rendered assist-
ance in bringing about the communication that led to the
convention referred to. He also stated that Government
had undoubtedly expressed an opinion that Don Carlos ought
not, for the general interests of the powers, to be left free to
return to Spain, without some previous arrangements be-
tween him and thopSpanisb government.
Mr. MACLEAN asked whether Captain Elliot, in China,
had issued a notice demanding the delivery of opium into the
hands of the British superintendent, &c. ?
Lord PALMERSTON stated that he had, and that the papers
relating to the subject would be produced—viz., those moved
for by Mr. Crawford.
In answer to another question from the same gentleman,
Lord PALMERSTON said that it was not the intention of
government to propose a vote for the payment of claims, and
that he was sure the house would excuse further explanations
of the course to be adopted, at least at present.
Lord SANDON having asked a question respecting the Bri-
tish claimants on Portugal,
Lord PALMERSTON stated that the Portuguese govern-
ment appeared desirous to satisfy them, and that her Ma-
jesty's Minister at Lisbon had received instructions upon the
subject.
Lord PALMERSTON was understood to say (in answer to .a
question from Mr. Maclean) that no measures had been
adopted to secure the payment of the debt due from Spainto
this country.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.-TUESDAY .

BRUTAL ASSAULT.
Three huge individuals, who represented themselves as
shipwrights, were placed at the bar, charged with having vio-
lently assaulted Sarah Lloyd, and broken her ribs, and also
with having assaulted several other young women.
A female who resides, as we understood, at a house of ill
fame in Brooks'-alley, stated, that on the preceding night, at
nine o'clock, the three prisoners went up into the chamber
where she and her child were in bed, and after beating her
severely, they dragged her out of bed, and at length took her
up by the heels and threatened to throw her out of the win-
dow. They had been at the house before that same after-
noon, and had so ill treated a girl named Sarah Lloyd, that
her life was despaired of. She of course could not attend to
give evidence.
Another girl belonging to the house, who had also been ill
treated, corroborated the above.
The prisoners vehemently denied that they had ever been
in the house at all. It appeared, that they were apprehended
by the police-officers at a public-house hard by. The officer,
(No. 147,) who had been first called, said, that they had all,
since they had been placed in Bridewell, completely changed
apparel with each other. The officer minutely pointed out
what articles of dress-each had worn that were now worn by
his companions.
Mr. Rushton ordered that they should each pay a fine of
£2, and costs ; in default of payment, to be imprisoned for a
month.

THE " LIVERPOOL CHRONICLE."

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.
Six,—ln the Liverpool Times of Tuesday last, there are
some curious disclosures respecting the corductors of that
scurrilous print the Liverpool Chronicle. I have, in com-
mon with many others, long thought that the best certificate
of any man's character for gentlemanly conduct and honour-
able principles, was, his being abused in that scurrilous and
trashy publication, and you may set it down as an established
maxim that those who have had the honour of their abuse,
whether Conservative or moderate Whigs, are men of stand-
ing,37, who are so far above the talent, and respectability,
con-
ductors of that paper in character, as the Andes are above
mole hills. The editors of the Times deserve the thanks of
the community for their effectual exposure of these slander-
ers, who have done more to damage the cause they have es-
poused than they will ever do good, if they live to be as old
as Methusaleh. You will probably recollect that some two
or three years ago a publication called the Brazen Head was
circulated for about twelve months, full of the most abo-
minable ribaldry and coarse personal abuse. Sir Thomas
Brancker, Mr. John Wright, Mr. Samuel Holme, Mr. Jas.
Aspinall, and several other gentlemen were libelled in this
infamous publication, week after week, with a malignity and
brutality that was most disgusting, and it was currently re-
ported that a Mr. DIGNAN was its editor. Can you inform
me whether this Mr. Dignan is the same writer who is de-
' scribed by the Times as being now editor of the Chronicle?
And can you also inform me who " the Parson" is whom the
Times so cleverly unkennels ? Alas ! for the Church of Eng-
land, when one of her ministers is found in such company
and so employed. Alas ! for the cause of reform, if it re-
quires to be supported by slander and propagated by infamous
Yours, &c
abuse.

LIVER THEATRE.—The very humorous drama called
" The Soldier's Stratagem" has been very successful in
exciting the broad grins of the crowded auditors in this
theatre; indeed, the genuine acting of Mr. Rayner, Mr.
Tilbury, and Mrs. Barton, has made it irresistibly ludicrous.
The pleasing interlude, " You can't Marry your Grand-
mother," has been distinguished by the admirable perform-
ance of Mrs. Raymond, and of course it has given great
satisfaction. A new drama by Mr. Tilbury, called " The
Orphan and the Deserter," the title of which reveals the
nature of the plot, has been as successful as it was in Lon-
don. The entire performances are remarkably well " got
up," and deserve the support of the public. We perceive
that Air. Rayner takes his benefit this evening : we hope be
will have a full house. The managers have retained the ser-
vices'of Mr. Rice, the popular American, comedian, for a few
nights, previously to his departure froth England.

LIVERFOOL:CO-RN.MARKET, JAN', 28.

Since last Tuesday the imports of all kinds of grain from Ireland,
Coistways, and from foreign ports • has been very small, in some
degree owing to the boisterous weather which has prevailed the
demand has, however, been to a moderate extent ; the prices last
quoted have been fully supported, and in some instances a little ex-
ceeded here, but our country markets, and those of Yorkshire, have
been dull throughout the week. The duties on Peas and Beans
from foriegn ports have increased since Friday last Is 6d per quarter,
on all other grain there is no alteration. Several thousand barrels
of American Flour, in bond, have recently changed hands at 29s 3d
to 30s per barrel, and there is now a difficulty in buying any under
the latter price; there are no Oats in bond here, and of all bonded
grain the value continues nominally in proportion to the duty,
At this day's market there was a abetter demand for Wheat at, in
proportion to quality, Id to 2d advance on previous rates ; for Flour
in bond 20s 6d was obtained; for all other articles the sales were
very limited, and little or no alteration can be made in our quota
tions of last week.

DIALOGUE
B TWESN A PATRICIAN LADY AND A BOY FROM THE
MOUNTAIN, WHOM SHE WISHES TO ADOPT AS HER SON.

LADY.

" Why wouldst thou leave me, oh ! gentle child?
Thy home on the mountain is bleak and wild—
A straw-roofed cabin with lowly wall
Mine is a fair and pillar'd hall,
Where many an image of marble gleams,
And the sunshine of pictures for ever streams."

BOY.
" Oh! green is the turf where my brothers play,
Through the long bright hours of the summer day ;
They find the red-cup moss where they climb,
And they chase the bee o'er the scented thynie ;
And the rocks where the heath-flower blooms they know
Lady, kind lady, Oh I let me go I"

LADY.

" Content thee, hoy, in my bower to dwell!
Here are sweet sounds which thou lowest well ;
Flutes on the air in the stilly noon—
Harps which the wandering breezes tune ;
And the silvery wood-note of many a bird,
Whose voice was ne'er in thy mountains heard."
Boy.
" My mother sings at the twilight's fall,
A song of the hills far more dear than all;
She sings it under our own green tree,
To the babe half slumbering on her knee ;
I dreamt last night of that music low
Lady, kind lady, oh! let me go !"

•
LADY.
" Thy mother bath gone from her cares to rest !
She hath taken the babe on her quiet breast ;
Thou wouldst meet her footstep, my boy, no more,
Nor hear her song at the cabin door ;
Come, then, with me to the vineyards nigh, • •
And we'll pluck the grapes of the richest dye."
HOY.
"Is my mother brothersm her home away
But I know that my are there at play
I know they are gathering the fox-glovebell,
And the long fern leaves by the sparkling well ;
Or they launch their boat where the blue streams flow
Lady, kind lady, oh! let me go !"
LADY.

" Fair child, thy brothers are wanderers now.
They sport no more on the mountain's brow ;
They have left the fern by the spring's green hide,
And the streams where the fairy barks were tied ;
Be thou at peace in thy brighter lot,
For thy cabin home is a lonely spot !"
BOY.
" Are they gone—all gone from the sunny hill?
But the bird and the blue fly rove o'er it still ;
And the red deer bound in their gladness free,
And the heath is bent by the singing bee ;
And the waters leap, and the fresh winds blow,
Then, lady, kind lady, Oh! let me go !"

MoNs..LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect-
fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver-
pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment
permanently at No. 38, SHEL-STREET, eight doors from
Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De-
cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the
least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in
an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre-
venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all farther pro-
gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction
unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell
into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping
up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of
he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth.
Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there
are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally
prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss
of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It
affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is
the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so
affected, Mons. La DRAY and Co. have to inform them,
that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint
by a single application, without the slightest pain.
Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed
from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots Or
giving any pain, without springs,wires, or ligatures, an-
swering all the purpoSeS of Mastication and Articulation,
remaining perfectly secure in their places,"and may be- taken
out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,—
at the following Paris charges :
A single Artificial Tooth £0 10 0
A complete Set
A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine
gold plate
An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal-
lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first
style, with tine gold sockets, usually
charged 40 guineas

Loose Tf;th fastened, arising either from age, disease, or
mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.
Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to tit the mouth,
and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original
state. Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays
from Nine till Two.
naar For the convenience of country patients, Monsieur
La DRAY and Co. are enabled to fix a partial or complete
set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or incon-
venience.

FROM THE LONDON PRICES CURRENT,
JANUARY 28, 1840.

SUOAR.—The merchants evinced much firmness, and the prices
established on Friday were fully supported, at which some of them
were not inclined to sell ; there was a brisk demand from the
grocers for all descriptions, and the refiners were buyers to a fair
extent.

FoßEioN.—There was much passing by private contract, but
prices underwent no change ; the public sale of 2000 boxes Havana
is put off: 40 chests brown Rio were offered, and sold at full prices,
viz. low yellow at 225 to 22s 6d, and ordinary to good brown at 20s
to 21s per cwt.
COFFEE.—There was much inquiry for clean West India Coffee,
bid the small supply prevented the execution of large orders.
There are few buyers of either St. Domingo or Brazil.
TALLOW.-- There was only a limited business doing in Peters-
burg Yellow Candle on the spot, or for delivery in the spring
months ; but there are no sellers under 49s 6d for the former, and
4.9 s 3d for the latter purpose.
RIJN', BRANDY, and HorLANDs.—For Jamaica Rum there has
been an active demand, and prices have further improved lid to 2d
per gallon. A government contract for 80,000 gallons of Rum
is declared for Thursday, Brandy has secured a fair sale ; first
brands of the vintage of 1830 at is Id to 5s 2d, ditto of 1837 4s 11d
to 5s Id, ditto of 1839 4s 7d to 4s 9d per gallon, and at these rates
holders are firm. Geneva sells slowly at 2s to 28 Id per gallon.
The demand for British Corn Spirits has been limited, and some
contracts have been made at gs 10d, but most of the distillers are
unwilling to sell under los per gallon, and even this price is unre-
munerating.

PRINCE ALBERT'S NATURALISATION BILL.

The I:o—a—D.--6;;;;-ci.Con:moVed the second reading of
Prince Albert's naturalisation bill, observing, that " one of
the objects of the bill was, to give Prince Albert precedence
next after the Queen. The, bill was framed on the precedent
of Mary and Philip."
The Duke of WELLINGTON observed, that he had supposed
this bill a mere naturalisation bill, as the noble and learned
lord had laid it on the table on Friday night, after the debate,
under the title, " An Act for the Naturalisation of his Serene
Highness Prince Albert of Sale Coburg and Gotha," and had
not said a word about this very important clause, which em-
powered her Majesty " to give to the said Prince Albert, for
and during the term of his natural life, such place, prece-
dence, and rank, after her Majesty, in Parliament and else-
where, as her Majesty shall deem fit and proper, any law,
statute, or custom to the contrary notwithstanding." He
had not been made aware of this clause till last night, and he
must ask that the debate on the measure be adjourned till
Friday, in order that be and other noble lords might have
time to consider it. The noble duke alluded particularly to
Lord Lyndhurst, who was not in town.
The LORD CHANCELLOR and Li rd MELBOURNE said that
although they had not expected the request for delay on any
such ground, they would not present obstacles in the way,
and thereby cause unnecessary division, although the seve-
ral branches of the royal family did not disapprove of such
clause.

Lord BROUGHAM said that he was not disposed to approve
of such clause, especially as it not only compromised the
rights of existing members of the royal family, but of
branches of it not yet born.
The second reading of the bill was eventually deferred till
Friday, after which their lordships adjourned.
