the United States or not. On this ques-
ton he must act on his own responsible
ity, and not upon the authority Of the re-
solutions of the Legislature. We are
not sufficiently conversant with the forms
of judicial proceedings, in cases of this
sort, to Judge how far it could be in the
power of the Judge to suspend the execu-
ton of the sentence, after the service of
the writ of error, if he were so disposed.

Lam, collector of the port of New Lon-
don, was in this city few days since.
We learn, from friend of Mr.. Lar,
that he is to be rlformed, by the presi-
dent, out of the office which he at pres
ent fills. This gentleman is one Of the
very few remaining naval officers Of the
revolutionary war. He was n midship-
man, and attached ~ the U. States ship
TRANQUIL, when she was captured in
1881, and was one Of the victims Of Brit
ish cruelty while prisoner on board the
old Jersey prison ship in this harbor.
Mr.. Low has been uniform demo-
crat, and is competent, faithful and in
defatigable public officer. His courtesy
and urbanity in the discharge Of his offic-
ial duties, as well as his gentlemanly de-
meanor in private life, have secured him
the respect and esteem Of oil who have
enjoyed the pleasure of his acquaintance.

The market for Flour in bond has become stiff.
fer again, and there are no sellers of really good
at less now than SIS. and even S5s6d is asked
for the best. There are buyers at Sia54s6d, but
they don't seem disposed at present to give more,
aud consequently there is but little doing. All
descriptions Of free Grain and Flour are howev-
er rather giving way, and the markets are ex-
ceedingly dull just now, in consequence of the
prospect Of all that is in bond, being likely to be
admitted soon at the lowest rate Of duty.-COt-

market has been heavy to-day. Some sales of
Western Canal and Philadelphia Flour have been
made to-day at SIS. and there are buyers of more
at the same price.
Another letter ofthe same date says-S5s is
now refused for -four in bond. Another men
tons the sale of 1900 brs to arrive, to be taken
from the wharf at S5s-this was Richmond
not City Mills.
A London letter Of the ed. quotes Flour at
Sos 4Os in bond Another London letter Of the
same date. reports the sale OF cargo at SIS; this
was New York city. Philadelphia, &c. On the
whole. the letters since they have come to hand,
put little better face on the corn business. The
English speak in the highest praise of our flour.
In the budget of the Chancellor Of the Exche-
quer, it was proposed to reduce the duty on Fu-

duty on the Canada timber from los Dos. A

but that was afterwards abandoned.
