"GLASGOW, MAY 9.--The transaction, in oar

offered at auction, of which 2266 infetior to good
quality were sold et 101 d. a 13fd.,per lb. being a
decline of about lid. per lb. on the lower and mid.

.stave since been sold at 24. Id. a 24. 2d. per lb. The
tales by private contract were also coosiderable.-
Coffee has advanced §s, per cwt."
IRISH PROVISIONS, &c.-There it at present Witt
' demand for Bed or Pork for shipping ; no material
alteration in the prices can hotrever be stated.-
Bacon continues heavy, and the sales by private con.
tract very difficult to be effected.-The prices of
Butter are considerably lower. ,
Stnaos.-The demand for good new Sugars eons
tinged all list week ; there were, however, few of
these descriptions offering ; there is a very general
opinion enterteined, that the first arrivals to the es ,t
tens of 7 or 8000 hhds. of the new crop from Ja.
, mint aid the Island's will go off with much brisk.
litho, fully supporting the present currency : the rea.
son for this conclusion is, that both the wholesale
grocers sad refiners have been completely out of stock
for some weeks, having born divappointed as to the
time of the new crop arriving in England.
r There were no Muscovades. on *how this forenoon
on account of being a holiday. The Jamaica ships,
sod those from the Islands, now arrive daily ; to-day
nine or ten are stated at Lloyd's to have arrived in
the Downs or in the English Channel : there is an
doubt, that neat week the new Sugars from Jamak,
will be brought forward to immediate sale, arid from
the appearance of the market, there is little doubt of
their anteing a brick demand at. the present carrencyi
The Refined market since mar last has bees rather
#eavy ; the few purchaaes.made for exportation bees
been nearly exclusively for Bessie .. the prices are
ls. lower.-M olasses have been steacly.--There is tie
'business doing in Refined goods this forenoon on ect
tount of the holiday.
The East India sale on Friday consisted of 5162
bags ; the brown descriptions went off 2s. lower;
the better qualities without variation. • .
Come.-There were. no public sales of Coffee
brought forward last week ; the prices continue to
lbctuete greatly : towards Thursday the demand by
private contract gave way, and though the prices
took), not be stated at any reduction, yet the market
was very heavy ; at the close of the week the demand
greatly revived, and yesterday the business den@ was
reported rather estPtitive-for fin. St. Domingo 1234.
was in two instances realised, and one parcel report.
ed at 1234. 6d.; Cheribon sold at 1231. and for good
quality 1245. was demanded.; some fine middling De-
lmore!. in the market held at 1355. ; and, from the
scarcity, there appears every 'probability of that price
being realised.
To-day, though generally considered a holiday, yet
Coffee appear, still to attract so much attention, that
severs purchases continue
.te lie made; the business,
however,},, is not so general as yesterday-St. Domin.

day lest, sod the holders evince Rauh firmness, cal-
culating, that though the immediate imports may be
considerable, yet tbat the stock here is so much re.

series of years-that rise quantity held in 'Holland.,

The facts proved vieie these :—The Plitinlif had
taken his place in the IBA coach toleavelAndon,and

In a frolic the latter took the coat and hid it, and
the Plaintiff not being able to God it time enough for
his journey was pat to the sixpence of baying a new
coat; but the old one isasafttarlrairds matured In HIM
by the Defendant, without any apology, however,
for the trick. This action wee therefore broUght to
recover damages for the alleged injury and inconve-
nience which the Plaintiff bad sustained.
Mr. SCARLET?, fur the Defendant, put it to the.
Learned Judge, whether the offence imputed-te Kis
(tent mistst not be considered as somethintillsAll
thin a irespass? • . . •11.. ,
Mr. Justice BAYLEY said, that therewas nothing
that cnald give it the cwaracter of &lolly, as the coat
*as afterwards restored to the Plaintiff.
Mr. SCARLETT went telße Jury, contenting that
there wee no pretence for any Verdict with damages
against the Defendant.
The Jury found a verdict for the Plaintiff—Da-
mages Is.; and the Learned Judge said he should
certify that it was not a case for costs. Each party
will therefore have to pay his own costs.
GOYTON V. CUISIILINST.
This was an action to recover 51. 10s. for a public.
house score. The Defendant, it appeared, was a
Gentleman's coachman • the Plaintiff the landlord of
a public-house. The Plaintiff's demand was for rat-
ing and drinking, furnished to the Defendant during
a period of five months, namely, from April to
August 1811. The fact of furnishing the Defendant
with dinners, at the rate of ii. 31 and breakfast and
supper for the additional sum of Mi. was prOved.—
The defence set up was, that the pristipal part of
the Plaintilr s charge was for beer, furnished to an
old man named Joe, who used to help is the Plain-
tiff's stable, and which was alleged to hare been fur.
tabbed at the desire and by the authority of the De-
fendant, who denied ever having given such authority.
The defence, however, failed, and the Jury found ti
verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages 51. 10s. 4d.•-.-
Celts forty shillings.

nised to be the same woman who had lately made
several desperate efforts to gain admittance into the
Palace, saying, her thject was to have an interview
