On Friday an inquest was held, by adjournment
from Wednesday, to investigate the circumstances of
the extraordinary case of the bead of a child being
discovered in the mouth of a dog (see our paper of
Tharsday last,) when, after a patient investigation, It
clearly appeared that she had been delivered of the is-
lent whose mutilated remains were then before them ;
but their being no proof that the child was bora alive
the Jury returned the following verdict—Tot she
had couceakd the birth of her bastard child; and
upon this finding, the Coroner has issued his warrant
for her committal to York Castle. Upon this commit-
tal we beg leave to remark, that the Judges, both
in their charges to the Grand Jury, and in trials of
warder to the Petit Jury, have declared, again and
again, that concealing the birth of a bastard child is not
an offence for which a person can be indicted, and that
it can only be reached through an indictment for mur-
der, when the Jury, if they acquit of the murder, may
find the prisoner guilty of concealing the birth ; and
that all committals for this specific offence are illegal.

COIX•EXCIIAN4II, .1 AN. 7.—The arrivals of all Grain
last week were very large, and we had considerable sup-
plies fresh in this morning from Essex, Kent, and Suf-
folk; yet prime Wheat sold from 2s. to 3s. per quarter
higher than last Monday, the quantity of th3t desrrip.
tion being small in comparison with that of inferior
quality, upon which there is no improvemeot in prices ;
but the sale of it was rather brisker than it had been for
some time past, although the arrival of Floor from the
coast has been insmease.—Fine Malting Barley is Is.
per quarter dearer; but the second and inferior sorts arc
cumaleable.—Beata are Is. per quarter higher, and fine
samples of old were In demand at that advance.—The
supply of Oats within the last few days has been very
considerable, bet fine fresh Corn fully supports last
Wednesday's prices.—ln Peas and other articles there
is no alteration.
