LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, J.N. 10

Although the supply of English Wheat was very small last week's
currency could not be maintained, and sales were made at fully Is
decline. Foreign is held at the same rates, and the transactions
are very limited, neither was there any inclination to purchase
bonded Wheat in granary or floating. There was a large supply
of Barley, and no progress could be made with sales, without sub-
mitting to is decline. Peas of all sorts are Is lower, and Bean do
not sell so freely as last week. The Oat trade continues ♦ery flat,
but not cheaper.

WEDNESDAY, Jan. 12.

The trade is exceedingly dull this morning, and the prices are all
nominally the same as on Monday last. The English Wheat,
though dryer in sample, is still an inferior article, and the millers
take only the most indispensable supplies.

to Mr. Hilton i❑ 183 G; could Mr. Hetherington then claim
to take it from him ? He cauld riot. The conveyance had
never been in the possession of Mr. Hetherington at all, and
he could not take it. he apprehended, unless he could shew a
good title to it. And how ti.d that title come ? Not through
Mr. 'Popha►n, for he had p arced with it in direct defiance,
and breach of his trust, and he could not give Mr. Hether-
ington a legal title to it. 1r Mr. Hetherington had it once
in his possession, it must have been a different case, but he
had not had it. Now it did'. seem to him most monstrous
and iiilegal to say, that who n Mr. Hilton had properly ob-
tained possession of the deed, Mr. Hetherington should step.
inrand assert the claim whir :11 he now set up.
11r. BAINES then proposed to put in the marriage settle-
Meta of Mr. and Mrs. Hilt on.
Mr. KNOWLES objected. to it, on the ground that the
plaintiff had nothing whatt ver to do with it.
The JUDGE said the sett lement proved that Topham was
the legal owner of the pro) rt y , and the legal holder of the
deeds. He commenced b.ring so in 1833, and be continued
till 1833, and he had made: a valid legal transfer of property
in 1835 to Mr. Hetherington.
Mr. BAINES contended it was not a valid legal transfer
under the circumstances, Mr. Topham, he apprehended,
could convey no title.
The JUDGE said Tophat n could have maintained an eject-
merit under the deed of 11136.
Mr. BAINES apprehended not, under the terms of his

THR INCOME TAX.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-11asr NIGHT.
In answer to a question from Mr. CUR.RIE.
Sir R. PEEE said the honourable gentleman had correctly
stated what fell from him the other evening. (Hear, hear.)
• •

He considered that he had proposed such an important
affair of finance—one so necessary to meet the exigencies
of the country, that if defeated on the question of an income
tax her Majesty's government (if, as be before said, they
were , defeated on such an important measure) would have
no option. (Hear, hear.) It would decide the existence of
the present administration. (Hear, hear.) The adoption of
an income tax teas necessary to carry into effect the other
.resolutions relating to alterations in the tariff. (Hear, hear.)
With respect to the general alterations of the duties, he
should at present reserve himself, merely observing that
it was his anxious wish and desire to do justice,—
equal justice to all classes, commercial as well as agricul-
tural. (Hear.) In answer to the hoti. gentleman he had to
say, that it was his firm intention to uphold and carry out
the general principles of the tariff which he had proposed to
the house. (Hear.) In the course of the discussion it was
probable slight modifications might be made in some articles
of duty, but he intended to abide by the general principle of
the proposals he had laid before the house. (Hear.)
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1842-04-05

STATE OF TRADE, MANUFACTURES, &c

Our Cotton Market during the past week has been marked
with extreme dulness, and the prices of the low descriptions
of American have given way to the amount of about id. per
lb., whilst the best qualities maintain their prices. Surats
have been in good demand; but, being offered freely, have
declined about id. per lb. The sales of the week were
18,940, including 1200 American taken on speculation, and
600 American and 450 East India for exportation, leaving
only 17,89 Q taken for consumption by the trade. The feeling
altogether in the trade is one of great depression.

The sales on Saturday amounted to 4000 bales, including
400 for export ; and yesterday fully 4000 were sold, the prices
of the close of last week being fully supported.

A considerable business has been done in Manchester in
Yarns, but at no improvement in prices. Cloth still conti-
nues heavy of sale, and little hope is felt of a speedy revival
of demand, owing in part to the complete stagnation of the
American markets. A better business has been doing in the
Country Trade. The accounts from the Clothing Districts
of Yorkshire continue of a more cheering character than from
the Cotton Districts of this and the neighbouring counties.

CHINA

The latest intelligence from China is to the 17th of Jan-
uary. The British expedition there appears to be waiting
for the reinforcement from England and India. Neverthe-
less, a sort of hybrid warfare was carried on. The British
Naval Commander at Hong Kong waseontinuinuthe seizure
of the Chinese junks. The Chinese at Canton were busy
in making the defences of that river as effective as possible.
They had three Dutch engineers, for which they sent a junk
to Java some months ago. It is not stated if those engineers
belong to the Dutch army, although it is presumed they do.
Their names are Van Scholte, Van Braam, and Van Schroek.
The Chinese Emperor is represented as incensed and
alarmed with the proceedings of the foreigners. Some of
the reports from his lieutenants in the provinces he had read
" with fast falling tears." Great preparations are stated to
be made in the province of Pekin, which is under his own
imperial jurisdiction, to resist the invaders, who are expected
there. - -

Large forces were collected in the neighbourhood of Ningpo,
and as Sir Hugh Gough thought more troops necessary in order
to maintain that position, the Admiral despatched a ship to
take about 800 Europeans from Hong Kong. Her Majesty's
ship Cornwallis had proceeded from Hong Kong to join the
expedition. The Clio had arrived at Macao..
In Amoy on the 2d of January, and at Chusan on the 24th
of December, the dates of the latest letters, all was quiet.
The steamer Madagascar has been destroyed by fire; the
crew, having taken to the boats, landed on the Chinese coast
and have been saved by the interposition of the Hong mer-
chants. There was some alarm respecting two iron steamers,
the Ariadne and Medusa, but intelligence has arrived of their
safety. Tne ship Viscount Melbourne, Captain M'Kerlie,
was lost between Singapore and Macao. Some of the crew
reached Singapore, from whence an armed vessel has been
sent to Sambas in quest of the remainder, who are supposed
to have proceeded thither.
The postscript of our Bombay letter announces, that an
express had reached that town from Madras with the news
of the arrival of the frigate Cambrian, having on board Lord
Eltenborough, the new governor general.
