ARSON AT WARRINGTON.

Samuel Great head, 18, was indicted for baying, at War-
rington, set fire to a stack of bay belonging to James
Gibson.

Mr. Drinkwater prosecuted and Mr. Brandt defended.
The haystack was the property of James Gibson, a far-
mer, residing in Warrington ; and, about ten o'clock on
the morning of the 10th of November, the prisoner was
seen to stoop down by the side of the stack. Almost im-
mediately after smoke was observed to issue from the hay.
and the prisoner, on being arrested at the spot and asked
who had set it on fire, replied that lie had ; that he was
starving ; that his father would do nothing for him ; and
that he wished to get out of the country. About one cwt.
of the bay was consumed. The prosecutor gave it as his
opinion, from the sneering countf-mance of the prisoner at
the time of the flames, that he was insane. His father, a
schoolmaster and preacher, from Dewsbury, having very
clearly established the fact of his insanity,
The Jury acquitte4dOm on that ground.
The JUDGE said thirlffect of the verdict was, that the
prisoner would be confined for life and prevented from
doing further mischief.

LONDON CORN MARKET', DEC. 9,

The frost still continues, and tl.e weather is intensely cold,
with every appearanc e of the navigation being stopped to the
interior. The condition of the English Wheat being greatly im-
proved, the trade was brisk at an improvement of Is. per qr. on
best samples. and fully as goo i for other descriptions. Free
foreign maintains late rates, with a moderate sale.
The best descriptions of Malting Barley have recovered the de-
pression that existed during the week, but secondary descriptions
are still difficult of sale and Is. cheaper.
We have no additional arrivals of Oats from Ireland since last
mirk et day; but the supplies of foreign are liberal, and a few
additional cargoes have got fresh up this morning. The coun-
try demand has greatly abated. Sales made to-day were only
to a limited extent; but last Monday's prices were fully sup-
potted.
Beans and Malt Is. lower. Peas unaltered.

FRIDAY.

Tie arrivals are this week short of all grain, both English and
Poreign, and there is no Irish Corn reported. X% heat and Bar-
ley continue as on Mi nday. Oats, on account of the frost
indicating a stoppage of the river, are looking up in value.
Beans, and Pease, and other articles unaltered.

FORGERY AT ORMSKIRK.

James Clarkson, aged 32, was indicted for having forged
a certain promissory note for the payment of £lOO, with
intent to defraud James Peel and others.
Mr. Monk conducted the prosecution, and Mr. James
the defence.

It appeared that there was a lodge of Oddfellows held
at Ormskirk in the year 1839, and that the prisoner was
a member, as were also several other persons. The pri-
soner made an application to the lodge at that time for a
loan of £lOO, which it was agreed to advance, provided
he gave a promissory note and two securities. He accord-
ingly proposed as security the Messrs. Rymmers, of
Snape-green, brothers, and a day was fixed for them to
come and subscribe their names. The day passed over,
and they not appearing, it was agreed that the money
should be advanced, provided the signatures of the pro-
posed securities were written in the presence of an attest-
ing witness, a member of the lodge. Shortly after the
prisoner produced a promissory note, signed by himself,
and purporting, also, to be signed by the two Rymmers,
and John Clarkson, a member of the lodge, as attesting
witness. The note was accordingly handed to Mr. Peel,
the treasurer of the lodge, and the £lOO was lent. The

prisoner paid interest for the money, but, when the prin-
cipal was applied for, it turned out that the note had
never been signed by either the Rymmers or Clarkson.
The prisoner was convicted, but not sentenced.
BIGAMY AT BLACKBURN. _

John Jackson Morgan, 36, was found guilty of having,
at Blackburn, feloniously married Elizabeth Southworth,
his former wife, Matilda Allen, being then alive. He
was sentenced to four months' imprisonment and hard
labour.
The court adjourned at ten minutes after four o'clock.

Copy of a Letter.
39, Kirby-street, Hatton-garden, Dec. 26, 1842.
Sir,—l was from my childhood afflicted with dimness of sight,
and as I advanced in years became almost blind. My husband
being a medical practitioner, every oculist of any eminence was
consulted, but unfortunately without any real relief. I was re.
commended by one of my friends, although a member of the
profession, who said he had taken it for a few ninriths with the
happiest result : he being relieved from inflammation after long
suffering, induced me to give it a trial. I have taken four 2s 4d
canisters, and shall continue to use it to the end of my days, for
I have derived so much benefit from using it, that I can now
read without the assistance of any kind of eye glasses. I shall
feel happy at any time to acknowledge the great cure your Eye
Snuff has made in my case. Make what use you may please of
this testimony, and remember, I am in my seventieth year, and
can read and ao needlework much better than I could for the
last forty years, without any glasses.
I am, Sir, yours gratefully,

HOUSE OF LORDS.-THURSDAY.

The Lord Chancel:or, Lord Wharncliffe, and the Arch-
bishop of Canterbury, having taken their seats as Lords
Commissioners, the Royal assent was given to the follow-
ing bills .-- I h,! Sugar Duties Bill ; the Vinegar Duties
Bill ; the Slave Trade Treaties Bill ; the Gold and Silver
Wares Bill ; the Forestalling Abolition Act ; the Night
Poaching Bill; the Assaults (Ireland) Bill; the Limita-
tion of Actions (Ireland) Bill; and a number of railway,
estate, inclosure, road, private, and naturalisation bills.
Lord WHARNCLIFFE communicated to the house the
report of the committee appointed to search for prece-
dents relative to the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor. The
committee found tha: the bill respecting the union of the
sees of St. Asaph and Bangor belongs to that class of bills
to which it has been usual to have the consent of the
crown.

Afrer a remark from Lord MONTEAGLE, the Marquis
Clanricarde, and the Duke of Wellington, the report was
laid on the table.

The Earl of RADNOR moved for a select committee to
inquire into the opening of letters at the PostotEce.

The Duke of WELLINGTON admitted the necessity of
inquiring into the subject, and would therefore assent to
the motion, if altered so as to coincide with the terms of
the motion agreed to by the House of Commons. He
was also willing that the committee should contain a ma-
jority of members from the opposition benches, and would
therefore suggest the following noblemen for its forma-
tion :—The Earl of Burlington, the Earl of Rosebery,
Earl Somers, Lord Cottenham, Lord Colchester, Lord
Brougham, and the Bishop of London.
After some discussion the secret committee was ap-
pointed ; and some bills on the table having been for-
warded a stage, their lordships adjourned.

Decrease on the Quarter .. 17G,299

The returns, prepared as the public has lately been to
expect improvement, will be found to exceed expectation.
The net increase of revenue upon the year amounts to the
large sum of £2,440,336, all arising from the ordinary
sources of revenue ; an increase which would appear
much greater were it not fur a circumstance to which we
shall presently advert. First, let us mark the increase
in the regular sources of revenue :

Customs
Excise ..
Stamps..

Tuxes....
Post-office

£835,349
420,073
72,693
6,387
34,000

£1,368,502

Here is an increase upon the regular revenue indepen-
dently of the property tax,—an increase of nearly one
millio►efour hundred thousand pounds upon those taxes
which we have been always accustomed to regard as the
indices of• national prosperity, or the reverse. "On the
property tax, however, the increase amounts to the vast
sum of £1,929,666, which, added to the increase upon
the customs, excise, stumps, taxes. and post-office—viz.,
£1,368,502, as above, gives a total increase from exclu-
sively native and regular sources of £3.2914,168, the actual
bond fide increase upon the pear. This, however, on the
face of the returns is diminished by a decrease upon the
miscellaneous or irregular revenue of £1,131,401. the
circumstance to which we have above alluded as requiring
explanation, but which is easily explained.
The China indemnity payments came into the April
and July quarters of the Last year, whereas they do not
upon the last quarter, wh il
come into the corresponding quarters of the present year,
which, as the sums were so considerable, accounts for an
apparent decrease
the other quarters of the year the customs, excise, stamps,
&c., present an increase, ever enlarging in proportion as
the time advances. Nothing can be more encouraging
than the whole return.
