They all pleaded through c * the _iiitcri-rct-cr , Not Guilty , 'i'he jury being sworn , J Mr . ( _-odsO-v opened the case on the part of the proei jfratitm . L Lieutenant Stupart was then called . He stated as il _f-llows : —I was on board of the AYasp in _Febniaiy of I- -tie year . We werc near Lagos on thc coast of Africa , - engaged in preventing the slave trade . On February , ' fi , wc saw a strange sail , and went in pursuit of her . [ p Aot being able to come np with her in the brig , by i Captain _tsner _' s orders 1 went into a boat and gave i _; chase . I liad both thc gig aud cutter with me , one i liebig in charge of 3 Ir . llockin and thc other of Mr .

      : 3 ' _,-dmer , the deceased , who was a midshipman on 3 _L-wrd tho Wasp . We came up with the Tcsscl about t tight o ' clock at night , and took possession of her . i She proved to be a schooner sailing { under Brazilian s _cc-lours , and __ cvidently fitted out fov the _traivspovt of ! _-jlnvcs . This was manifest , as she had a slave deck , : * ai _. l also from the quantity of water and provisions Ttiich she had on board , the latter being tlic _proviaons given ioslaves . She had a crew of twenty-eight liiCii , aud Captain Don Antoniodi Cirqueira . There ¦ pere no slaves on board , but the place where she was i _» Wn is where _tcsscIs come and cruise till they can fcke tlieir slaves on board . It was in latitude C derres north of the equator . The name of this vessel _vastbc Felicidade . Abouttwo hours after her

      capture I sent a report to Captain Usher , and received ciders to take out thc men in her and send them on ton * . ! the Wasp . This was done , butafterwardssomeof _tkllU- _'llWCreseutback . Iwentonlxwirdin the cven-Ini ' _. aiul gave up command to Mr . Roberts , onr maslit . Eventually , Cirqueira and Majaval werc left _gj board the schooner . Towards the evening I stiit on board again , and Mr . Palmer with me , and _as _K-eii men in the jolly boats . Roberts returned to ik _" " •** . Wc had five cutlasses and two pistols re , fcardwitii __* . Shortly after I received orders fnw theeaplain ofthe Wasp to chase in a particular _kuivo . I could see no vessel , as wc were too low to do i jfc 1 olieycd those orders , andgavc chase , but did sot fane up with any vessel that night . In the morning

      ] lacked and stood towards Lagos . On thc 1 st of _Jl-irch I saw a brigantine , when I hoisted colours as * _, went alongside ofher . She hailed to know what in * were , and I replied English . On hearing this _* wade sail and got away . _Kcxfc night I saw her Ersai , and gaTe eliase . Wc came up to her , and I _iktia-iit a boat to her . 1 did not go In thcbo . it , _toisent Mr . Palnicr with her . She proved a _ rapjliiii brigantine , called the Echo , with 434 slaves in ha * . 1 had seen her before several times , aud carryhc _Urazilian colonrs . Mr . Palmer boarded her _carrnar l _* ritish colours flying . lie was In his uniform _ a British officer . I had frequently boarded her kke , and they knew mc . Sebastian de Santos then actctl as her commander , and he knew me verv well .

      J wa * - in my uniform on those occasions . lie had a a _in *» r of twenry-thrcc men . I was obliged to divide my men in order to secure this "vessel . I put Mr . Palmer in charge of the Echo , and returned to the _i ' _t-liwdade . 1 left with him all thc aims except a _tuiiass , which , had been lost overboard in boarding . About nine o ' cloek in thc morning I returned to thc l " c ! io , and sent Mr . Palmer on board the Felicidade , and intended to return there myself when I had got afew things done on board thc Echo , which itwas messary should be done . I left nine of our men * _«* i Mr . Palmer , The slaves were greatly in want if fool , and I had them fed . Whilst this was going ai . 1 perceived thc Felicidade coming down upon us , villi _L-razilian colours flying . She hailed , but not caJen-tanding Portuguese I did not understand what - jj- siid . I saw Serva aud Francisco on board . I olaot heave to , and she came up and fired a gun _ m , and nineteen shots were lodged just above

      the boom . 2 _So one was hurt . She kept on , and dieu sho came athwart our bow she hrcd again . She km on our bow a short time , then tacked , and l-rc away . There werc eight of the crew of the Mo in my vessel at that time . They had been in tht boat , at thc stern , towing , but I ordered them in anil sent them below . I could see that thc Felici dade was retaken , as she came down on us . as there _wasiinneofourmen tobe seen in her . I followed "• era . * * _fon-r as I could , bat as she sailed much better -an the Echo on a wind she got away from us . The nest day 1 fell in with the "Wasp .

      was tipsy , another was midships asleep , and the other was placed as sentry over the hatchway , but _wasaslee" _* . There were no more Englishmen , but the two Ivroomcn were there . At this Serva . went to thc hatchway and called t ' : c men to come up and commit the murder . 1 was aft , bat cainc forward , seeing Serva at the hatchway , and having suspicion . I caught Serva by thc hand and said , " Don't be foolish . " Serva was still callin « - tho men to come up . When I saw they were determined I made a sign to the quartermaster and Mr . PaluM _** . The quartermaster ran and caught a bar of iron and struck Aires on the head , and then caught him up and flung him overboard . When struck down he fell on the fore part of the deck , on thc starboard side . Alvcs was coming up to the hatchway when he was struck , with

      a knife iu his hand . Alvcs was the first , but was on the deck when the quartermaster struck him . As soon as he had thrown Alvcs overboard he took a handspike and began to defend liimself . They wcre all upou _dcekatthattime , except two or three who stopped below , saying they werc poorly . Antonio Joaquim , Santos , and Jose Antonio , were on the deck before , on thc plea that they were poorly . I never saw a knife in their hands , but they had got knives in their belts . Antonio Joaquim was lying down forward . When the men came up they all began with iheir knives on the quartermaster . There wcre four or five upon him . Majaval was not there * he was aft in thc cabin , making bread . Francisco Martinis and llibeiro both had knives . The- fell on the quartermaster . He was

      trying to defend himself with a handspike , but they wounded him with their knives . In the meantime Serva called thc men out of the boats , and Majaval ran up out ofthe cabin with a long cooking knife in his hand . He went up to Palmer and struck him on the leftside . He fell on the gumvhalc of thc vessel . Then Majaval caught hold of his feet and pitched hini overboard . After that hc went and gave his assistance forward . The next man was killed by onc who killed himself afterwards . He lulled onc of the men lying down . The men forward werc cutting and slaying fovwavd . The T _ an they had been cutting was lying outside thc vessel , and had hold of thc fore sheet . This was the sentry . Some struck him on the head with great pieces of wood , but he did not let go . llibeiro then cut his _finders off and

      hc sunk . I cannot tell who killed Mullins , the quartermaster , as they werc all upon him , but hc was killed aiid thrown overboard . The two Kroomen jumped overboard themselves . Serva was standing on the deck , having taken command , calling out" Killthcm ; kill them , and fling ' em overboard . " After all were killed and thrown overboard , Serva ordered the peak of thc mainsail to bo lowered as a signal to his brother-in-law to rise and lull those in the Echo . Hc then gave orders to hoist thc Brazilian colours , which was done , and they made off to the Echo . They shipped the gear on thc side next thc Echo , and placed them in readiness to fire . Serva ordered me to point the gun . All the men were standing behind mc . I was obliged to do this . I elevated the gun , but did not fire . One of thc

      pri-I soners fired . Then Serva gave me orders to hail the Echo to heave to , and likewise to holloa to his _brother-in-law , that all the Englishmen were dead . 1 did -this . I saw Lieutenant Stupart , an English sailor , Serva ' s brother-in-law , and another prisoner , who ran np in the fore-top . Wo sailed on till we came to the bow of the Echo , and then fired another gun . This was done by Serva ' s orders . After firing the two guns , finding thc brigantine did not heave to , we made off . Some time after Serva said , as tllC vessel was taken by him from the English , he considered the vessel was Lis . The decks were eovered with blood , and it took aboat an hour ' s scrubbing to clean them . Two days after I asked Serva where he was bound . He an _. wered " Rio Janeiro , because it was his vessel , as he took her from th 6 English . "

      He also said , " that I had allowed myself to be taken with thirty men under mc , by two boats , and thathe had retaken her with his four cats . It WilS Ills vessel , _andheskonld take hertohisownerat Rio , instead of thc Echo , because he bad lost a deal of money by her . " I answered , that if tbat was the case , I hoped hc would put mc on hoard thc first vessel we met , or on the first land wc made , as I would rather pay my own passage than remain on board . Four days after we fell ia with the Star . About three or four o ' clock , the Star took possession ofher . During the chase Serva gave orders cither to luff or keep away , as thc cause required . When hc found he could not get away , he began to drink rum and wine . The Star , when she came up , fired ten muskets and a gun , and then took possession of her . As soon as thc Star came alongside thc men began to stow themselves awav . except Serva and the man at the helm , who

      remained on deck . Serva was drunk . All the men were taken on board thc Star . When I came on board , Serva said , " You say that I am a passenger . " They gave thc commander the name of Virginia as the name ofthe Echo , and desired me to say the same . In the course of four days I communicated to the commander what had happened . lie ' _wpsverykinu anil free , and Ithoughtjustice would be done . I thought an unjust crime had been committed . I waited four days , because I was in fear , not being sure whether the officers would he kind or rash . The witness was cross-examined at great length by Mr . Serjeant Manning and Mr . Collier , in the course of whieh he stated that—When Aires was thrown over , hc got-into the boat and remained ihere until it was all over . When he came on board hc took up the blood from the deck in his hand and drank it . lie did this because he had not had his

      revenge . E . F . Rozegrcs was then called , and proved the most handsome and intelligent black ever seen . — At the time of the murder of the Englishmen , he was in a boat towing at the stern of the Felicidade He gave the following account Of what he witnessed Saw two blacks come overboard , who swam away . I saw two white men in the water who disappeared all in a moment , and there was blood in the water . This noise lasted a good half hour , if not three-quarters I heard a voice say , "kill , kill . " I could not see Serva . I think the voice was Serva ' s , but I could not swear to the voice . The first onc who called to mc and others in the boat was Serva , to come on the deck . He told us to come on deck as thero was nothing more to fear . We went on deck . I found all thc prisoners on board , but could not swear they

      were on _' deck . Alvcs was on thc deck , near the main hatchway . Four were wounded and covered with blood . The blood came from their heads . I did not sec Mortinos at first , but saw him three or four minutes alter . He was coming from the fore-parfc ofthe vessel . Thc same day I learned that hc had been wounded . I saw them dressing their wounds . Thc blood was spread in different places on the deck , and af terwards it was trod about by the feet , There Were footmarks . Serva was on" board . Every one was giving orders , but under the orders of Serva . He was the principal person . Serva gave orders to steer down alongside the Echo . We went down . There was a shot fired at the Echo in midships , and another on the bow . I heard some one speak ; it was Serva . He said , " Jove , throw yourself in the sea . " That fear

      was his nephew . He said , " there is no , there are no more English on board . " I did not see any colours hoisted , but I saw them afterwards lowered down and put away . After they fired , they hauled up thc boat alongside , and sailed away . _ By the Judge—Did not see Alves in the water . There was only one boat attached to the vessel . I saw Alves when I came on board , standing bythe hatchway . I did not observe his dress . I saw that he was wounded in the head ; the fore part ofthe head . His face was covered with blood from that wound . He had nothing in his hand ; lie was washing himself . I did not go tip to him . Directly I went on thc deck I went forward . Majaval was at the helm when I went on board . Ribeiro was on deck when I got on deck . I saw no . one come into the boat whilst I was tliere at the stern . If one had come into the boat I roust bave seen it . The boat was

      hauled astern , and I got up by the painter . They all climbed up that way . I was thc fifth that went up . Thero were three whites in the boat . They went up first , and then a black . Then I went . Two blacks who were in the boat came after mc . I did not sec Alves . I cannot say for certain that Alves did not come up , but I did not seo him , * Alv < -sdid not appear weak , as noticed . I cannot say whether hc was strong enough to climb the painter . Shortly after he washed Mmself he went to bed . IdidsecAlves ' s head the next day , but I cannot tell the size ofthe wound , because it was covered with a cloth . I cannot say in what direction the wound was . Did not see whether his dress was tret or dry . Serva gave me orders in Rio in the Portuguese language , and 1 understood that . The crew talked in the same language , except onc person , who was a Frenchman . I had no conversation with them , but I understood manv words they said .

      Jt now being late , thc Court adjonraed till Fi > day SecoxdDav , _Jt-tv 25 . Thc same intense interest which was manifested yesterday was increased rather than diminished today . Thc first witness called this morning was Saberino de Gosta . This witness was as stolid and repulsive looking a negro as the last was intelligent and handsome . He stated that he was born in Africa , and was a slave there : he went aboard the Echo as part of her crew ; he then went on to give the same

      evidence as before given of the capture of the Echo . I went on board the Felicidade with the other prisoners , in a boat under the command of English sailors . I was put down with the others in the forecastle . 1 saw Majaval looking down the hatchway , conversing with , the other prisoners below . I also saw Cirqueira in tLe schooner in the morning . Majaval was the cook . Francesco and Alves werc talking below ; I could hear what passed . All of them were pitssent , and could hear . . Either Alves or Fransaid to the other"Ohgo up and

He afterwards consented to go . Rioeiro said . _aftcrsoine time , "Well , when you are ready , 1

" Francesco then said" If you don't go J' )] kill vou . " lie then described the mode m which they did their knives , and went on deck . He thai heard a noise ns of scuffling , and Liberie came below , where he ( the witness ) had remained , with his head cut open . He then weiitoil deck , tllC appeavar . ee of which lie described m die other witness had done , and went on to confirm him in reference to the other events which immediately followed . The witness was cross-examined as to his understanding the nature of an oath , and gave much better answers than we have frequently heard our own countrymen do .

      lhoinas Lethbridge . —I was as corporal on board the Star . On the Cth March we were returning from 1 nnce ' s Island to Lagos . We saw a sail and gave chase . Sent boats under thc command of Lieutenant Etheridge , who took her . She proved to be the Felicidade . The crew were below , and werc about twenty men . They were all sent upon deck . Thc ten prisoners and three witnesses were there . I found in the after cabin a book . It was a volume of tho Cabinet _Cyclopedia , with the name of R . IX Stivpart in it . I found also some duck bags , flannel , and serge , and a pair of clews . I found also a fishing line , with a boat ' s anchor and awning with the broad arrow on tliem . There were stains of blood onthe

      deck . The creiv had been sent on board the Star at this time . I returned then and remained till the 22 nd March . Saw the prisoners there . Four of them , Alves , Ribeiro , Francesco , and _MartillOS , had wounds . They were the ' 7 th sabre cuts and were fresh . They were put in irons . They said the wounds were occasioned by the falling of a mast . Lieutenant Etheridge asked the name of the vessel , and was told the Virginia . I was sent with the prisoner and three or four other men on board the Penelope . On the 5 th and 6 th of May they werc sent on board tbe Rapid , where I found the prisoners , and came home with them to Plymouth . I found a shirt in the cabin , with No . 40 on it .

      Thomas Wood and Lieutenant Wilson werc next examined ; their evidence was not important . Lieut . Stupart was recalled and gave some additional evidence . Louis Hastzleti stated that hewas keeper of the papers in the Foreign Office , and produced the Brazilian treaty , and proved thc signature of Don Pedro annexed to it . By the first article of this treaty it is declared that any Brazilian or English subject engaged in any way in carrying on the slave trade shall be guilty of piracy . Cirqueira also was recalled , to speak to th * . blow which he stated he saw the quartermaster give to Alvcs . He said it was with the stancheon , and that the quartet-master swuiig it , aud then let it f all , as he thought , rather gently on his head .

      Onc of _theforeignj urymen , a Frenchman we believe , put some questions to him , at which another juryman complained , saying it was a waste of their time . But the foreigner persevered , saying it was a most fearful responsibility wliich they had cast upon them , and he wished to satisfy his mind on every point ; a declaration which was warmly approYcd of by the learned judge . He elicited that Cirqueira had not seen three of the prisoner * , take any actual or decisive part in thc murders . These wcre Santos , Jose Antonio , and _Manoel Antonio . Mr . _Gonsox informed the Court that this wns the case on the part ofthe prosecution .

      Mr . Seijeant _Maxmivg then rose , and submittted to the learned judge that there was no case to go to the jury . The offence with which thc prisoners stood charged was alleged to have been committed on the high seas . It was a clear proposition of law that offences committed by a foreigner , out of thc jurisdiction of this country , were not cognisable in our courts . Onc Brazilian could not be tried for the murder of an Englishman , unless that Englishman at the time was in the Queen ' s peace . Here the offence , if committed at all , was committed on board a Brazilian vessel , wrongly detained , as he should clearly show , by the officers ofthe Wasp , and consequently for the purpose of jurisdiction , must be considered to be done in the territory of Brazil , as one

      power had no jurisdiction or Control 0 VC 1 ' what took place m the , vessels of another , although such vessels werc on the high seas . It was not enough that they wcre on the high seas , as before remarked , they must be in thc Queen's peace , which was synonymous with thc Queen's jurisdiction . Being in the peace of the Queen meant only being in her jurisdiction or under her control . The learned gentleman cited a number of precedents insuppor t of liis vien * ofthe question ; lie contended that both thc Felicidade and the Echo , according to the terms of the treaty with Brazil , had been illegally captured . Ifthcse vessels were wrongly taken , then it would follow that the prisoners were illegally imprisoned , and in such a case they had a right to use all thc force that was necessary to escape

      from sueh imprisonment . And even if these circumstances should not justify the violence altogether , they would have thc eflect necessarily of reducing the offence of the prisoners from murder to manslaughter . There werc , therefore , three objections—first , there was no jurisdiction , as the offence , if any , was committed in a Brazilian vessel by a Brazilian , over whom , under such circumstances , tlic laws of this country did not operate ; secondly , the prisoners were not in lawful custody , and consequently had the right to use violent means to relieve themselves from tlieir false imprisonment ; and , thirdly , in any event these circumstances would reduce thc crime to manslaughter . Mr . Coijj-sb followed on the same side , contending that the Court had no jurisdiction , and insisting jt would be an act of injustice to try parties by laws of

      which without fault they were utterly ignorant , and which might be altogether opposite tothe laws under which they lived . Mr . Gonsox and Mr . Cockbckx replied . Mr . Baron Plait ruled that those vessels were clearly engaged in the slave trade—that their being so made them guilty of an act of piracy—and that they were , therefore , legally captured . It was now veiy late , and the learned judge , addressing Mr . Serjeant Massing , said as this was a trial ofthe most serious and important character , if it would be any accommodation to him hc would stay over to-morrow , and postpone thc case till then . Mr . Serjeant Maxnixo expressed his gratitude for this indulgence , and the Court was thereupon adjourned .

      Thikb DAr , July 2 G . Mr . Serjeant Manxixg and Mr . Couikr severally addressed the Jury , at considerable length , this morning , on behalf of their respective clients . Air . Godsos then replied on the par t of the _fjtOVrA Mr . Baron Puit _sunwoed np the case most carefully and minutely , going over every fact given in evidence , and commenting upon each at considerable length . His lordship was nearly four hours in the discharge of this duty . The Jury retired from court to consider their verdict . They wcre absent about half an hour , and then returned , when they pronounced a verdict of Guiltt against seven of the prisoners , and acquitted the other three , who were Sebastian de Santos , Manuel Antonio , and'Josc Antonio . The crier demanded thc usual silence , which being obtained ,

      Mr . Baron Piatt , in an impressive manner , sentenced these seven miserable men to be hung , holding out no hope of mercy to them , Majaval , through the interpreter , then requested that he might be permitted to inibrm tho Queen of Spain of his situation , and complained that justice had not been done to him . The learned Judge said he might ask for any indulgence of thc government , about wliich he would not at all interfere . The prisoners were then handcuffed , and removed from thc court . It was stated that Serva was a man of considerable property , and that Majaval had belonged to a good family in Spain , from wMch country he had been obliged to fly .

The very first dose afi ' orded much relief , and he lias found them move serviceable than any other medicine lie has taken . He always resorts to them ou finding any symptoms of the complaint coming on , and they invariably relieve him . Thc attacks have been _niut-h less frequent since taking Parr ' s Fills , aud he believes by continuing their use his _comi-lnint will entirely leave him . Dated April 2 Cth , 1 S 40 , From Mv . Vf .

      _Losnos Con . v Exciiaxge , Mo . way , Jui . t 26 . —The arrivals of wheat coastwise were quite moderate during thc past week , whilst of spring corn and pulse of home growth thc receipts were trilling . From Scotland a small quantity of oats , and from Ireland a few thousand quarters ol ' that grain and a couple of hundred sacks of Hour , constituted the entire supply . The arrivals from foreign countries have been rather liberal , particularly of oats . At this morning ' s market there was " a small show of wheat by laudcarriage samples from Kent , and only a moderate quantity from Essex and Suffolk . Of barley , beans , and peas , the display of samples was by no means large , but of oats the quantity on sale was abundant . Theinercisingly unfavourable reports received from different quarters respecting the appearance of the wheat crop ; caused factors to demand very high prices for that article ; but the day being fine , " tlic millers paid the advance rather reluctantly , and at 2 s . per qr .

      rise business closed somewhat dull . Foreign free wheat must also be quoted quite 2 s . per qr . dearer ; the inquiry , however , was not lively . For bonded samples extravagantly high terms were asked , which prevented extensive " transactions . At tllC close of the market _tks millers succeeded in establishing ftti advance oi' 4 s . per sack on town-made flour . Barley ivas hold for rather more money , but no actual rise on , last Monday's quotations could he established . Malt was fully as dear as on this day se'nnight , Tho continued arrivals of foreign oats caused the trade in this grain to open heavily this morning , still line corn was not cheaper than on Monday last .

      Losnox Smith-field Cattle _uIarket , Moxda y , July 2 S . —Since this tiny se ' nnight , up to Saturday evening , the imports of live stock , from abroad , into London , were exceedingly large , the Bataviei * arriving from Rotterdam with 73 oxen ami cows , and 50 sheep ; while the Ocean- and Giraffe have been reported—tho former with 7 _S oxcu aud cows , Gl sheep , 10 lambs , and 11 calves , —the latter with -ID oxen and cows , S sheep , and 25 calves . From Hamburgh , per the Neptune , wc have received 30 oxen , all in good condition . It will be perceived that the total imports for this market , for the week , have amounted to 230 oxen and cows , 119 sheep , 80 calves , ami 10 lambs . The principal portion of tliese supplies being disposed of on Friday last , the numbers of foreign stock on offer to-day were small- —viz ., 30 beasts , 50 sheep , and S calves , the whole of which i ' ouwl buyers at good prices . The imports into Hull have been 120 beasts and \) 0 sheep . These , together with the previous importations , form the foUowing totals for tho present

London ... 3902 — 1480 Liverpool ... 9 — — Hull 2330 ~ 200 Southampton 15 — — Total ... 02-10 — IGS 0 For thc time of year , wc had a very small supply of beasts offering this morning from our own grazing districts , yet there was a _slight improvement ill their general quality owing to whicli , thc increased attendance of buyers , nnd the dead markets being well cleared oftheir last week's snpplics , tho beef trade was active , at an advance , on the quotation obtained on Monday last , of from 2 d . to 4 d . per Sib , thc primest Scots readily producing 4 s . Cd . per Sib ., anil at which a good clearance was readily effected . From Norfolk , Suffolk , Essex , and Cambridgeshire we received 700 Scots , homebreds , and shorthorns from the northern districts 200 shorthorns , ite . ; from

      tho western anil midland counties , 500 llorefonis , runts , _Devens , _ c . ; from other parts of England , 100 of various breeds ; from Ireland , 30 beasts ; anu from Scotland , 300 horned and polled Scots . The numbers of sheep werc very limited , there being upwards of 10 , 000 less exhibited than at the corresponding market day in 1 SU . Although tho ("• uaJity of this description of stock was by no means first-rate , there was an evident improvement in it . All breeds wore in active request , at i ' _uJJy , but at nothing quotable beyond last week ' s currencies , the primest old Downs selling at Cs . per Sib . There were very few store beasts or sheep on sale , and for wliich extravagantly high prices were demanded . Thc supply of lambs was again small , while the lamb trade was firm , at full prices . Although { the numbers of calves were good , the sale for them was active , and the rates had an upward tendency . In pigs comparatively little _busmcsB was _doin-j , at lato rates .

The duty on _hewns has , declined , to 3 s . 6 d per ( _juarter , wliich is the only change in the scale on foreign produce this week . Throughout the week , the _weather in this quarter has been for thc most part line and dry , though cool . Thc accounts from the sonthern agricultural counties speak of worse weather , and state that the wheat p lant makes slow progress towards maturity . Considerable transactions have occurred in our market since last Tuesday , principally in wheat and flour , on speculation , both l ' roe and bonded , at improving prices . The best

      Irish red wheat has been sold at 7 s . ' 3 d . to Ts , Ou . per 701 bs ., which is an advance on the low rates of last May , of ls . per bushel , and flour is fully 4 s . per sack higher . The prices paid « for bonded wheat ivere 5 s . to 5 s . 3 d . per 70 JK for fair Baltic red ; good dry parcels are scarce , and would find a ready sale at much higher rates . In bonded flour , the sales of States , sweet , have been at 19 s . 6 d . to 20 s . Cd ., and 17 s . lis . 6 d . per barrel for sour . Nearly 10 , 000 barrels of Canadian sweet flour will have changed hands during tho week at 27 s . Od . to 28 s . per _lOOlbs . for superi ' mo brands . Tho limited supply of oats has enabled holders to obtain rather bettor prices , bu 6 oatmeal is unchanged in value . Wc haye more inquiry for barley , Indian corn , and peas , without leading to much business . Beans are offered the turn cheaper by tho reduction of duty good Egyptian beans may be bought at _3-3 s . to 38 s . Od . per 4801 b 9 .
