Afterwards , and when I had t r la custody , she Bald Bhe would not lose her hust- : for . the world , for they had been married twenty-V- - e yens . I searched the house for poison , bat did r : find any . I brought the prisoner to Stockport As "B c were coming , she said she had been at Manchester
\ - - week . ~ befo » , and had gone by the railway . About 8-: > : o ' clock the atme day , Sergeant Hough and I went E .- _ ln to aearch . tae prisoner ' s house for poison .

We f vd some matttfn oa a shelf in the pantry , which I t- -2 ht to Stockport , and showed it to the prisoner . I \ sked her if that waa part of the mutton , she used to ir " re that pie *; and she said it was . I then gave the
xrirrcn to ill . John Raycer the u * xt morning . On t _ r rth Angust , from what I heard , I went over to 8-t-s- w xnp prisoner , Wffliam Witkins , and charged him v : a assisting- his mother to poison his father . He r pied that he never did . I then asked him if he had r : ' . said to several persons that his father would not liTe long ? H « said he had . I asked him his reason £ ¦ : -j saying . He answered , " Why , my father drinks l ~ 1 goes on so . " He said he had eaten some of the p ¦ = .- « las mother bad made on the Sunday , I had seen tLc prisoner , Wm .

ti - . rtrqniitt any « Jaik > r » fe « eieses on his part , yet it ¦» si uteesauy-that fce- * fct « dd make a few observations o ^ th e fcxU as they stood . The first question was , wLa-t coulAtiBtbe-iriofcive of the wife attempting " the life of h » -j owa latAnd . It had been used in argument a ^ -icst tha wotate , that the -motive vat assignable to a - - ailty comtction she bad-with KebsaU Vaod that the lu ;'' jcad wa ** afcHf * & * & * " *^ <* ber iMdt intercourse , to " : t he iTuS gW to fiad to * ftere was no evidence of any importmee whatever to ehow 6 at there w&s any criraiml ixtereoarse existing between them . Kelsall hi-J . lEoreorer , been discharged . In looking over the eTiti-. nce , it was perfectly true that one night Kelsall be : np rather late in Watkins ' s house , as neighbours w ^ re wont-to do in country villages ; but the husband
burg up stairs , came down to request his wife to come U- brd , and he returned up stairs . Had she been guilty of sxy imgrsFHtteiy , her husband was there and must tu- - e beard it ; and it was not likely that she would do aa . j-Uiuig of the kind in his hearing , almost in his own Bight . Ke&alli mother , too , came into the house , and ttl . l Mm fisa * . it was time to come home , and if there b--J ' -& = n any thing " extraordinary in his conduct , it was a .. * Vitly that she ¦ wonld ha-ro been contented -with aiir-. /? y selling fier son t » come home . Tka Bench—But WitkniB and his wife have h ad a qt ^ T : el abont her connection Vith " KelsalL Mr . W . VirGHAS thawed the Beach for the re-SB-. ri ; but it was in the evidence of her husband , that n- th r he nor his wife had had any particular
disagri ^ ruait duriug the twecty-three years they had been BinifjO . -It was txue that they had had ~ ih the e ^ - : ^ of that period a few words—and he had yei £ o hear tell ot a , man and wife -who had been ni-ittd twtenty-three yea * s , and bad not also bad a ic v flying expressions at sane time or other . Then e&--e the motive that the woanjn could possibly have in punning her husband under any possibility . On the <* arr ^ ry it was her iBterert to faep him alive for the sti . of tbeguinea which he earned every week for the support of the family . That she had altawoR with KS&U , he took H for granted was utterly refuted , bt uuse the evideaee already addurod in that court was too -treak to be . sustained , and he had been , accordingly ¦ di ^ cl ^ r ged : It also came oat in evidence on a former
Otc-Jon , test KfrlwJl was a member of the Primitive Mtiti > diri : Gonneetiott , at Compstall-brid ge , and was -w . ihJa picms and a reSgioaa character . [ Here the Be-6 h smiled ] He percett ^ d Uiat a smile prevailfci in tbc Ojurt as it did wben ditBtatement was first made ; but rareiy if Mrs . Waikins preferred that her ddldren « t .. u ; . l go to Qiis school ; Krisall ' s good character should not be brought up as a-matter of speculation against him . TS hli regard to the pie , the prosecutor < if he m % ht leriE nim H » taBWit wasCompsteJl-brid ge wakes on the St ^ - Viy in " question , when something extra : w ' ould be nqcred in the house for friends and visitors , ( for at tfc-JK .- times the greatest hospitality prevailed in the h -i-esof the villagers ) , and his wife , finding that he hid brought nothing with him from Stockport on the
&tr ^ iay evening , reminded him ef the omission , and lie promptly and of Ms own accord proceeded the next moirung is far as Marple Bridge , where he purchased a :. * uab ' s head and some mutton . The lamb ' s head was ma-ie into a pie for dinner ; and four smaller pies were made of portions of ttie mutton . Considerable stress was iedd on the evidence upon the circumstances that they -were made in the back room ; bat there was notbi& £ extraordinary in that , because she usually did ev > rvthing there in the shape of cooking . Tbs hnsband di . i not suspect anything ; and he ( Mr . W . V . ) believed thit tie result of this trial would prove that he had no reason to suspect anything . They -were all very happy thst day ; and they retired to bed in the utmost zood
fe-. ! : ng . Ko burst of passien—no an ^ ry word prevailed to p ^ jmpt her to commit the act with which she was efc ^ rged . The following morning he got up first and came down stairs , to prepare for his journey to Stockport ; and she did not get up at all until he had left tl . e house for some time . He feund the pie exposed on the table where it had lain during the "Whole of the Snr ' -ay- E » d site bad a gviitj miad Bile WOUid not bare allowed- ife-to have so remained , lest some of the ehii-jen might have got hold of and eaten of this soxlous pie . In fact , she had asked him for a portion on tbe Sunday ; but he refused - to break into it If othing " particular tranqdred . She gave him a shilling , n his application , knowing that wh en he arrived at lib work he might be in the receipt of more money .
The Bench—It is also in evidence , that the reason be wanted some of her husband ' s pie was , because she thought it was richer . Now , why should she make his richer than the three others which she said were Bttde at fo *» ttsie frjynA ? Mr . W . Vaughah replied that , because she loved ber hnafcwd best of all , the « u desirous that be should bring thfrfrefrplo of the four for himself to Stockport Be Mmte £ i £ tafttiog the meat for them , and knew of what they ** % * e made . On a former enquiry , he ( Mr . W . Y . ) asked particularly the form , the length , and breadth of the pie , and it was for the purpose of ¦ bowing thai the pie was made in ,-a vessel , and not "nited" as neb . plea nasally were , the object being to show that the pobxm might erigin&Ily . have been in the Teasel in which the pie was baked , or by Mine other easnalty ; beeaus * he believed that it , would torn out thai the poison got into this pie accidentally .
And what ant « t * ongly confirmatory of this position was that the poison was not scattered over the meat like salt or pepper ; but ( according to the evidence of the surgeons ) was in the fat , and , by the process of baking , had communicated with the crust Now , this fat might have come in contact with the arsenic , it was probable , and at all times possible—for it was a very common thing for batchers to scatter poison about for the purpose of destroying flies , and such might have been the ease at the butcher ' s shop at Marple Bridge , whence Watkins purchased the antton . There was no nenic secreted in tbe boose , nur any trace of poison , although Walters had searched the house directly after the pies had been eaten . At present the case was entirely a dreamrtantia . 1 one , the evidence being wholly of that character—and the case must still be guided by drcumstanoea . Thtsae , then , were the points which he felt it hi * duty strongly to urge on behalf of the primer . She had been married to her * " , **<«** twenty-

three year * , bad had sevwteen eMdreu to him , and , up to the morning in question , wen living in the ut-™ o «* harmony and good temper ; nor did sb * « rge any partteular course to be adopted by him with this particalar pie , as a guilty party would do . She could not hav « intended tofcaye poisoned Set own children , taoagh , from the exposed stantion in which' it was placed , any of them might haw eaten of it , as well u herself , but he would not allow her . And , therefore , if she did not care for her own children partaking of it , or anybody else , she would tot have left it on the table until the next morning , ' unless she had malice tn »»» Tfiri , hart h % r \ wnTiintm « 1 i till 111 tn Mim I ml
against all mankind . The police bad certainly taken mor * eare to get up this case against the prisoner than he ever recollected on sny previous occasion ; and the country had been actually scoured , in vain , to find the person who sold the poison . After fhis lengthened investigation , and etfnfldent that they could not make out a case against her , he hoped and trusted that if the Beneh entertained the slightest doubt in the matter , they would give the prisoner the benefit of it , and not let her remain for six months in Chester Castle , with the horrid charge © ver her bead of attempting to murder he * husband , "by whom she had had seventeen children .
The TOWM Clerk observed , that the husband had denied peppering the pie , or assisted in making it in any wjiy . * The prisoner wept bitterly during the delivery of Mr . Vaughan ' s address ; and made one ot two injudicious efforts to say something more in her own behalfbut she was dissuaded by her advocate . The Magistrates said they had given the case a very patient investigation ; but as the evidence had been given at different periods , they considered it necessary to go through the depositions again ; and , therefore , proposed to retire to their private room for that purpose , before they could give a deliberate decision in the matter . They then retired .
After an absence of some time , the Magistrates retnrned into Court . They said they had carefully examined the Whole of the points for and against the prisoner ; and although they admitted that there were portions in her favour , they considered there was sufficient to justify then in committing her for trial for the oiteinpiea murder . The prisoner was then committed for trial at the next Ohester Assizes on the charge . Placards were issued last week for the discovery of the place where the prisoner purchased the arsenic in Manchester , about a month ago ; but the document being insufficient in all the more material points , of course it produced no result It described the very reverse of the fact It was , moreover , ambiguons , indefinite , and ludicrous , xhe Idea of placarding an immense population like Manchester , in order that some person in a druggist ' s shop might possibly recollect selling two-pennyworth of arsenic , about a month ago to a woman . How ridiculous !
Counterfeit Coin—William Chandler aged 12 , aud Joan Prince , aged 10 , were charged with uttering base coin ; and Jam es Wood and Ann Arnold fadults ) trcre charged with coining . A boat nine shopkeepers and tradtiimen were examined as to several counterfei t sixpences paid to them by the boys at different periods since the 1 st of August , they receiving copper in return for the trifling articles they purchased . Many of the pieces were detained , and the boyB went away te fetch the woman whom they pretended had ¦ enttbem . The coin * were then laid carefully by . Hr . W . Vanghan , who appeared for the prisoners , crossexamined the witnesses as to the natare of their identity of the pieces which they took so much care of and producing them after a lapse of three weeka . One of
them admitted that she had not laid the sixpence up in mint or lavender until the apprehension ot the utterer nor had her husband ( to whom she handed another locked it up in a gold box & » Alexander the Great did the poems of Homer . ( Laogb&er . ) On Thursday evening P _ nne * was detained by Mrs . Fanner , shopkeeper , of Heaton-lana , while in the act of passing anether ban sixpence , and was given into custody ; and the next night , Chandler was similarl y detected and apprehended in Mrs . Sidebotham ' s shop , Hillgate , also in tha act of tendering a counterfeit sixpence in payment of a quarter of a pound of cheese . When Walker , poiiceman , was bnngiBg Chandler down to Sadler ' s Wells , and on being charged with uttering a base sixpence , he said a woman had given him a halfpenny to get it changed . He afterward said that a man gave him the sixpence ; but
desired him to say that it was a woman . His name WM J em . and he lived in one of Tommy Kenny ' s xomna . He had made sixty on the previous day ; and he ( Chandler ) had been employed to pay them , and that he had accordingly passed eleven that night , of which three had been paid in Edgeley , and eight in Stockport and Heaton Norris . Jem , he added , bad forty in hia possession ready to be sent out That officer and Tatton accordingly fwent to the room in question about eleven O ' clock that night The only person in possession was Ann Arnold , who it appeared cohabited with Wood , she being at the time in bed . On examining the room , some bits of white metal were found in a jar which hung up in the chamber , together with , portions vt rag for the purpose of cleaning the coin , portions « J metal being then apparent upon them . Two or three
iron spoons were afterwards discovered under the stair , case , ia which metal had been melted . Some plaster of Paris was also found . No other person but Arnold and Wood had access to the place . She denied all knowledge of the articles or of the coining . She was taken into custody ; and directly afterwards Wood was apprehended by the watchman , ia theHillgate , on his way to the above room . In answer to the charge be said that he had neither made them nor paid them . He was , however , confronted with Chandler in the Superintendent of Police ' s room ; where Chandler told Mr . Sadler , in Wood ' s hearing , that be had lived with him some time , and had be « n employed to pay this base money for him . Wood admitted it , urging that he had
done it for want Chandler said be had seen him make several sixpences . Mr . Sadler asked him where the mould was , and Wood answered that be had broken it and thrown it with a cumber of sixpences over Lancashire Bridge , on hearing that the police were after him . All the sixpences which had been paid by the boys appeared to be of the Batne mould , but of different dates . The metal produced was of the same description as counterfeit nmnay was usually made of ; and the plaster of Paris was also used for the composition of moulds for coining . There were twenty-five other eases of uttering not gene into . Prince , it appears , lived with Arnold ' s sister . ' The prisoners were then remanded to await the opinion of the Solicitor to the Mint .

A . Collins in tho chair , when we hsA a great accession of now members ; and the number would have been greater atili had it not been the annual least , whereby many who bad promised to join oar ranks were prevented from coming in consequence of having frienda from a distance . We are happy to Bee that in spite of the base tools of a baser government ; in spite of their prosecutions , their threats , and their opposition , that the spirit of liberty is again astir , that the friendB of the good cause , for which Hampden died in the field , and Sydney on the scaffold , are determined
u To have the rights of their birth By their very existence bestow'd , To choose who shall rule them while lingering on earth , And who lead their footsteps to God . " A number of subjects were brought before the meeting . A discussion took place on the necessity of forming a Town Council , and agitating the butrouuding villages , both of which questions were adjourned uutil next Thursday e ? ening . A letter was read Jrom our brave incarcerated townsman , William Ashton , which elicited great applause . It was resolved that it should be Bent to the Northern Star for publication . Wakefield , August 22 , 1840 .
Dear Friends , — The enchantment ia broken onoe more . I have an opportunity of conversing with you , and that this is a pleasure I scarcely need say , as I feel confident that you are aware of it . I am in perfect good health , aud in as good spirits as I ever was in my life , feeling confident that everything is working for the best . Howevtr , dou't imagine that I am quite indifferent about everything and everybody else , for I beg to af sure you that I have been very uneasy about my dear boy , fearing that he might be left destitute of frieuds able to asssist him . This has been the cause < jf much concern to me ; but when thinking Of him sometimes I have derived pleasure iu tho thought that he will some day , when I am absent or in
prison , be able to defend my cause , and oppose the hydra-headed monsters that infest the land . Perhaps , like Amilicar , who was blest with his son Hannibal , I may yet have the joy in the bold , independent , and per severing spirit of my long neglected Bon . Thig ide * gives me more exhalted happinesB than yon can imagine ; but you will exclaim , surely , you wonld not be deBirous of seeing your son in £ risen ! No , surely , imprisonment is not always to e the reward of opposing oppression and abuse ; but should he fall a victim to honest opposition , to tyranny , I'Aould glory in him , and he wonld be endeared so my heart tenfold more , if it were possible . I doubt not but that you would be glad to
hear how I am created here . I cannot at present go into the particulars of the inhuman system adopted here ; but I am happy to inform yog that hitherto I have not been punished by solitary confinement , or any other mode except the general one . However , I may thank the Governor , as I have been reported several times for somewhat serious charges . I will , tor your information ^ give an instance or two . About a fortnight ago , I was < Jr » gj ; ed before the Governor ' s brother , a very amiable young man , and charged with laughiDg—a very heinous crime , having been charged with the like offence before . The case was adjourned till next day , when I was taken before the Governor , and , after a suitable admonition , I was dismissed to my room . The particulars were as follows : —The barber of the room could

not shave himself ; I wataskod to try and d « ft for him . I attempted , bat soon found oat th * t I could not shave him ! ft&d at th » moment it flashed across my mind about poor Mango P « rk . When be was a prisoner in the interior of Africa , Ali , the King sent for him to shave the head ' of hia son , In attempting to do which he eat the boy's head , and was obliged to tore his head part shaved . When I thought of this I smiled , and pat down the razor ; for this smile I -was bad up , as before stated ; and another thai I was charged with smiling at some mice , and with throwing them some crombs of fatead . These are specimens of the system , and what we have to undergo . With the various studied and degrading insults to which myselfin with the others »« . t iWm htdtuilf « T « rma makad to tr » and A * I * tnm
, general , are subjected , are the Bitterest ingredients in this galling confinement . However , I most , in justice to the Governor , observe , that he has uniformly treated me with kindness ; and whenever I have been brought before him , he has not added insult , by any imperious manner of speaking , bat , on the contrary , has spoken in the most affable manner possible . This has been some comfort , contrasted with the ignorant and brutish manners of the principal portion of the under officers ; bat I mast dismiss the subject at present by observing that custom makes almost every privation endurable ; in short , " use is second nature . " I have been travelling lately all over the world , and have visited several places of distinction , St . Petersbnrgh amongst the rest ; and I feel confident England will ere long have cause to deplore its growing power . There are scores of subjects on which I could like to say something , but I am
swelling the letter to an inconvenient length , without having said one word abont what I should . By the rules we are only allowed , after the first six months , and only to see one friend or relation once a month . I must not forget to return my thanks for the books that were sent . It is useless my naming the kind friends whose names are attached to them , and you must TOllecc me a few more , if possible ' * * What isi the Barnsley Qliver and his base compunions doing . But none of them areas bad as old M— . Because they weTe always crawling wretches ; but he is their master and teacher . Never on any account bend to one of them from the greatest-to the least , to obtain me any benefit . I hold them all at defiance and' in contempt ; cvo yeara will have an end like any other period . And will I then succumb , and be subservient to oppressors f No , never , tchile my heart beats . * * There are other thiuga I wish to say , but I must defer it to another time . Remember me to all frimids . ¦ ' ¦ v
I remain yours most affectionately , " William Ashton . BARjrsi . ET Charter Association . —On Monday night , a meecinj ; was heid , arid many members enrolled , under the instructions givenby the Manchester delegates . This Association , which never was dissolved until the formation of the new one , and always having for its object the enrolment of every honest friend to Reform , passed the following resolution uuanimously : — "That this Association will commence and correspond 'with the
Democratio Association now forming in Barnsley , on condition that they change their name to that of the National Association . " Upon this resolution being carried , Mr . M'Douall proposed that a deputation should wait upon them at their Committee-room , to disousa the propriety of the change . This buniness being disposed of , the Worabro'Common men enrolled themselves in a body . Dodsworth is doing gloriously , and we have bo doubt but all the adjacent villages will soon be as well organised as ever they were .
Christenings . —Charles Key , collier , had hie son christened Henry Feargns O'Connor Key , on Sunday last . —Same day , Robert Moeley , boot and snoemaker , had his Bon christened William Tell Moaley ; John By gate , weaver , his daughter Martha Stephenson Bygate .

Doctor s short Btay amongst them to the beBt accouut . Biilg , informing the public , will be distributed during the present week , and we are quite certain that every man , who has any TeipecV for freedom , will assist in giving his wannest support to one of her bravest and best of champions . Two young Chartists , brothers , the one fifteen , and the other ten years of age , were baptised in the parish church , the eldest by the name of Raymond Vincent O'Connor , and the youngest by that of Heuben Feargus O'Connor . The vicar made no remarks , and the boys are quite delighted with their new and patriotic names .

STROOIV—Chabtist Meeting . —A meeting is h-. ld every Monday night at the Golden Fleoce , Nelson-street , when the attendance of all lovers of liberty are kindly invited to attend . We further hope you will give notice of the following plan of agitating the people ' s enemies , being , as we think .
au easy method of conveying our desires to the eye of the moneyocracy and aristocracy . On the reception of every £ 5 and £ 10 note , every one to write on the back , Universal Suffrage and No Surrender ; " Frost , the British Whigs' exile .

" u No rights for the poor—no pence for the rich . " M Annual Parliaments . " " No property qualification , " and " tha speedy liberation of all political prisoners . " This plan has been adopted in Stroud , and we find the few who wish to have all their own way , are a little displeased to have Chartism so boldly bronght before them ; by
adopting VMS plan , the middle classes will be every day put in mind of the poor persecuted Chartist , and will , in a short time , be lea to see the necessity of giving way to the rights of man—Universal Suffr age . We received a letter from Mr . Vinoent yesterday ; hois quite well and in good spirits , in full hopes of soon enjoying the fellowship of his true friends . He is desirous that all will be sober men , striving with all their might to obUin knowledge , The committee have sent him and Mr . Edwards £ l , ana are in hopes , by the assistance of their friends , to send more the next week , and for this purpose they wish to inform the readers of the Star , that the committee will thankfully receive any small donation for that purpose .
FEBTH . —Radicalism is likely to receive a fresh stimulus here , if agitation and novelty will tend to rouse the deadness of the Perth lieges , for they have remained in a state of torpor for , some time past , notwithstanding the repeated efforts of some of the more enthusiastic of our number' to lead them into action . They have drawn up a novelty , in the shape of an indictment against Fox Maule , which they intend to lay before a public meeting . The Democratic Society of Dundee have hired a steamer to convey their body to Perth , there to assemble , along with their brethren of that fair city , on the South Inch , and proceed to try this gentleman according to his actions ; more particularly wili he be libelled for hia acts of political persecution .

Manchester Corn Market , Saturday , Aug . 22 . —The expected reduction in the duty on Wheat has taken place , and it is now 6 s . 8 d . per quarter and 4 s . Jd . per barrel on Flour . From the English agricultural districts we receive favourable accounts of thn progress of the Wheat harvest ^ and it appears that the crops have not sustained any injury from the stormy weather experienced in the early part of the week . With a very moderate enquiry the value of Wheat and Flour remains without variation from the quotations of this day se ' nnight , and at this day ' s market few transactions were reported m either article . Oats and Oatmeal were likewise in very limited request , and only choice samples were saleable . The trade in Beans and Malt was languid without alteration in price 3 . f ' J ' ( ' ' '

Liverpool Corn Market , Monday , Aug . 24 .- — The week ' s arrivals of British Grain , &o . are light . The chief arrivals from abroad are 2379 qra . of Wheat , and 15724 barrels of Flour—1435 « " barrels of the latter from the United States , and 1574 barrels from Canada . Duties have been paid upon 380 quarters of Oats , 3991 quarters of Beans , 104 quarters of Peas , and 382 barrels of Flour . The , alterations in the rates of imposts are 4 s . per quarter less on Wheat , Is . 6 d . per quarter less on Oats , 2 s . * d . per barrel less on Flour , and Is . 6 d . per quarter more on Barley ; she respective rates are 6 s . 8 d . and 3 s . 3 < i . per quarter , 4 s . per barrel , and 133 . 4 d . per quarter . The wet stormy weather experienced in the beginning of the week caused considerable excitement in our grain market on Tuesday , and a large
business was done in Wheat and Flour , the better qualities of the former realising 2 d . to 3 d ., inferior descriptions of Foreign 4 d . to 6 a . per bushel over previous rates . Flour also bronght fully la . per brl . advance . Oats and Oatmeal still moved slowly , without change in value . The transactions in bond embraced several parcels of Wheat at prices ranging from 7 a . 3 J . to 93 . 3 d . per 701 bs ., and a little flour at 32 x . per barrel . The weather has since been favourable for harvest operations , and with this chan « e we have had less disposition to business . At Friday ' s market tho sale of free Wheat waa limited , at Id . to 2 d . por bushel below Tuesday ' s currency . Duty-paid i lour wa 3 also rather cheaper . Other articles of the trade nominally unaltered , Several parcels of Flour have been sold in bond at 32 s . per barrel .
London Corn Exchange , Monday , August 24 . — There was a fair quantity of Wheat offering thia morning from Essex , Kent , and Suffolk , with a limited supply of Barle y , Beans , and Peas , from these counties ; and of Oats from our own coast , Scotland , and Ireland , tbe arrival was very short . The imports of foreign Wheat and Oata during the past week were moderately good . The weather continued unfavourable here up to last Thursday morning ; since then it has been better , having only had occasionally slight rain , with a finer aspect this morning , but from some parts of the eountrv the accounts are not so favourable in this respect . Much of the new Wheat on sale at this day ' s market appeared to have been hurried and carried during
wet weather , the condition of the general supply being much worse than that of last week ; some from Kcnc was too rough for millers' use : fine dry samples realised the rates of this day se ' nnight , bat the secondary and damp samples were soiling on about as much lower terai 3 as the quality and condition was worse than last Monday . There was nothing of moment parsing iu foreign Wheat , either bonded or free , but prices were much the same as on thia day se ' unight . The average difference in the quality of new Wheat this morning must be quoted 3 s . to 43 . per quarter below that of last Monday ' s supply , and the sale * will probably be called as much lower on the aggregate generally . Flour was without alteration iu value . Good grinding Barley met a
tair demand at last week ' s currency . Malt was tally as dear . Beans commanded the rates of last Monday . Peas were Is . to 2 s . per quarter cheaper . There was a moderately fair demand for all good Oats to the consumer , and quite as high rates obtained for such . A small room of fine new Polands , from Boston , brought readily 36 s . per quarter , fully 44 lbs . per bushel . There was nothing' « moment passing in Linseed , and the sales of B » peseed were confined to the seedsmen . New winter Tares were still held high , and from their high value many farmers are reserving ' new Rye to sow as a substitute ; the latter article is consequently both scarce and dear . A few samples of new white and brown Mustard-seed Were on sale , but held very high .
London Smitiifield Markets , Monday , August 24 th . —In our market of to-day , the supply of beasts ' was extensive , but of very middling and inferior quality . Tbe attendance of both London and country buyers wag somewhat numerous , who pur * chased the lew prime qualities offering , briskly , at . fully the currencies noted on this day sennight , but , in order to effect sales of the secondary descriptions , lower prices were in some instances submitted to . Onl y eighs horned and polled Scots were received fresh up from Scotland . The numbers of sheep on the market were fully adequate to meet tbe wants w the dealers , and no fluctuation was noticed in the quotations . In lambs a limited amount of business was passing , and their value was with difficulty supported . Prime small calves went off steadily , ouier kinds of veal being a mere drug . In p igs no alteration .
