COURT MARTIAL.
Twentieth day-Friday, July 90.
The Court met at 10 O'Clock, Capt.
Biddle being excused on account OF
indisposition.
The proceedings of yesterday hav-
ing been read, and it appearing that
Commodore Porter was not yet pre-.
pared with the defence, the Court adj
journed until tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock. National Journal.
T,Uenty,frst day-Stwday, July 30.
The Court met at 10 o'clock, Capt.
Biddle being still absent from indispo.
sition
Commodore Porter exhibited a va
riety Of documents, and references TO
others to be supplied, which were read
by the Judge Advocate, and annexed
to the record.
The documents consisted Of letters
and extracts of letters which passed
between the Navy Department and
Commodore Porter, in the years 1928
and 1924; and one of the main objects
of their production appeared to be to
establish the fact that he had intimated
to the Department his intention to re.
turn to Washington, and had received,
in reply, permission to return, at any
time which would be least inconveni.
ent to the service, and most agreeable
to his own inclination. The anony.
nous note, also, which appeared in the
Nat. Journal, of June IA, and which was
admitted to have been written by
Richard S. Coke, Esq. was put in
by Commodore Porter, and annexed to
the record. Some of the other docu-
ments which he submitted having been
read in the course OF the previous pro.
ceedings, the reading Of them was a,
this time dispensed with. Amongst
the papers referred to, were the Mesa
ges of the late President of the United
States to Congress, at the commence.
ment of the LIST and I'd sessions of the
Seventeenth Congress, and the first oil
the Eighteenth Congress.
Commodore PORTER having nothing
further to present to theCourt,& having
intimated his doubts whether his coun
sci could be prepared with his defence
by Monday Morning, the Court ad
journed until TWO o'clock on Monday
to allow time for its preparation.

COMMERCIAL.

Flour has improved little since our last.
We quote the ordinary super6ne at 81 49,
A few loads of Shenandoah approved brands,
sold yesterday at 81 Sc to 81 65-very little
in market, and coming in slowly. We stated
on Saturday, that wheat was coming in plen-
tifully, but we learn since, that it was only in
wagons and small boats-no cargoes having
yet arrived. IS cents is still the current price,
which is low compared with the present rate
of -four, but may be accounted for by the in
capacity of the millers, (through scarcity of
water) to manufacture It Immediately /; and
All apprehension of decline in the foul mar
ket as soon as water becomes plenty.
Corn maintains its price, but not so active
K-It is the opinion of dealers that large arri-
walls would depress the price materially. Sales
Der cargo were last effected at 81 cts. with the
exception of very small load of superior
white Maryland, which brought IS. The last
several sales of Rye were at 80 cents, but not
enough coming in at the present moment to
make it an object for shippers to purchase.
Oats have become scarce--a small cargo sold
the last of the week at 80 cents, and few
bushels yesterday at 80, but 26 was offered
last evening, and we believe accepted.
