The exorbitant price of music has long been n subject of just and general o mplsint, and yet Pile or nothing has been done to remove it. While every claw of literary publication has been brought more and more within the reach of the whole read ing public, musical works continue to be sold an n ally luxuries, be pied the means of thousands who, from ta• te and education, are per fectly able to use, appreciate, and enjoy them. To remedy this great evil, and to render the supply of music of a high class mere propor tionate to the daily increase in the demand for it, caused by the 'mow ing love and knowledge of the art among the educated censers of society, is the professed object of this new periodical. For the com plete fulfilment of this object, the Best number, just published, fur nishes an ample pledge. It consists of a song. Sing, Maiden, Sing,' the poetry by Barry Cornwall, and the ruusicby Balk ; which, minted in the same st3k elegaece, weuld have been told at a music-ahop fur five times the price. ilalfe's melody is in his best manner —well suited to the poet's Imaginative verses, exceedingly flowing, eraceful, and singable, with Anne happy touches of novelty, partleukrly the prolonged note on the last bar but one, forming a beautiful clone. The instrumental accompaniment, in arpeggios of triplets, is very ele gant."—Daily News. " We hail this number as the first instalment of a debt long due to the music-loving millions. The exorbitant price of all mss cal pub lications has hitherto had the effect of confining to the privileged few an enjoyment intended by Nature for the many. The prevent under- Viking is therefore entitled to the mos'. unqualified pmise of those who love the art, and are desirous that others should love it also. We have, in the number before ue, an original, and exceeding) pretty song by Palk, accompanied in a simple and unaffected style. The melody is one which is destined to haunt tin in our quiet hour,. The work is beautifully got up ; and, although tweed at no low a price, the engraving of the mune is fully equal to that printed by the first mimic pnbliehers in the metropolis. We cordially recommend • The Munc Book' to all who witted wish to town a valuable modern musical library at an exceedingly small outlay."— Douglas Jerrold's News pa "This new lyrical publication will be most extensively popular. It contains a delighted song. • Sing, Maiden, Sing,' by Barry Cornwall. the Intrie, original, by Balk. The names of the bmtmadern musicians and poets are mentioned as contributors to the work. The specimen before us is faultless. The designs on the wrapper, by Richard Doyle, are chefs-deeuvre of artistic invention and execution."—Bell's Life in London A New Weekly Original Periodical has just been commenced under the above title, and it promises to be a most interesting and spirited undertaking. The tint number, now Wore us (published in a loose and very cleverly designed wrapper, exhibiting mu is under all circumstances, and in every Flume, from • old Orpheus,' with Ws lute, 'atrung with poets' sinews,' to the in derv organ-grindee), contains a new song, by Balk, with words from the works of Barry Cornwall. Judging from the tint number of the work, extensive popularity and rapport must, in all probability, attend its progress. The promisee, too, held out of future compositions which ate to appear in • The Music Book' are admirably varied and attractive."—Mors lag Advertis•r. ' This seems to us one of the most novel and pleasing extensions of the now prevailing nyetem of cheapness. Excerent original mune IS here proposed to be presented to us, with no abatement even in the elegance of its petting forth, at one-filth of its usual cost. Both songs in the numbers before us are pretty, and likely to be popular; and the Salle. actually announced as contributors to the work carry with them the best promise. We shall see the success of an undertaking like this with peculiar sadefaction. It Ia the wider diffusion of an ele gant and hunianbing luxury, hitherto for mere trade purposes most absurdly limited. If the public second such an effort, they will gain by it much mote than its immediate advantages."—Examiner. " This Li another of the landab:e endeavours which are now made to reduce the extravagant price of musical publications, and to bring the works of our best composers, which are at present one of the ex pensive luxuries of the rich, within the reach of the meat body of the educated public. The first number, now before us, is a sati- factory specimen of the work. Printed in the same handsome manner, its price at a music-shop, instead of sixpence. would be lialf-a.crown; and moreover the wrapper, designed by Belle, is so full of fancy that it has no small value as a work of art —John Bull.

Original hods. LATEST INTELLIGENCE. THIS DAY, Four o'Clock. By the packet-ship Rochester, Captain Button, ar rived last evening at Liverpool, we have papers from ' New York to the 22d ult., being one day later than those received on Saturday last, by the Joshua Bates. The commercial accounts from this country, conveyed outwards by the Caledonia, were received just pre vious to the departure of the Rochester, but at the period of her sailing, su ffi cient time had not elapsed to show the effect of the advices from England on the corn and flour markets. There was report in New York of another en gagement between the Mexican troops and the United States' forces in which the former were said to have been again defeated. No particulars hul been received, nor was it by any means certain that there were good grounds for the rumour, which had found its way from New Orleans, and was thus noticed by the Baltimore correspondent of the Express. The New Orleans papers of the 13th inst. bring the wel come intelligence of the safe arrival at that port of the steamer Neptune, which, it was feared, had been lost, with all on board, on her passage from Galveston. She succeeded in reaching New Orleans, in a leaky and somewhat crippled condition, on the 12th. A bearer of dispatches from General Taylor to the govern ment, who had arrived at Brawn Santiago, reported that in the battles of Monterey no lees than 2,000 Mexicans were killed and wounded, while the American loss in killed and wounded was only 500. The story, however, was not cre dited. The Mexican forces had all withdrawn from Monterey, and left General Taylor in sole possession of the city and its fortifications. The New Orleans Delta gives a rumour that, after the armistice agreed upon by the two armies, and whilst the American forces were reposing in fancied security upon the good faith of the Mexicans, the latter made • sudden and desperate attack upon them; that the Americans suffered a large loss, but eventually dispersed their faithless and trea cherous assailants. The following is from the New Fork Express of the 22nd alt.: " There continues to be the greatest anxiety throughout the country, particularly in quarters where volunteers have gone, to hear further from Monterey. The absence of the full returns of the killed and wounded throws us upon con jecture, and conjecture in such a case is often worse than reality. Ampudia, it would appear, after he was driven from the heights, the Bishop's 'Palace taken, and his forts abandoned, concentrated his remaining force in the Plaza and adjacent houses, where be was capable of making a stout resistance, by defending himself from houses, as was done at Saragossa. This, indeed, is the Spanish mode of defending their towns. The houses are strongly built, and constructed of stone ; the roofs are flat, and communicate with each other, after the Moorish fashion. From these and from the ,vindows an assailing enemy is fired upon as from a masked battery. Every house becomes a little for tress and ob.tinacy of defence is one of the characteristics of the Spanish race. It •as in this state of things that Am pudia sued for a cessation of hostilities, and offered to sur render the town. The s4/bion, the organ of the British population in this country, thinks thst,. under the circum stances, Gentral Taylor was wise in giving Arapudia the liberal terms he did. . „ . iaoo le,.* Iwo 2000 1000 2000 t P. d.

He doubtless considered that if he lost 600 men—supplsing the loss to be only to that 'mount—it would cost him 400 more to take the remaining part of the city, making a total of 1,000. To advance to Sahill° with any safety, it would be necessary to leave 1,000 men in garrison at Monterey.. This I would reduce b*.m army to 4,000, and with such a diminished force it would be madness to go on—he must wait for rein forcements, even if successful, and lose one of the great benefits of his victory, viz., taking advantage of the enemy's' panic. All these considerations, no doubt, influenced the mind of General Taylor. He al so considered that the armis tice of two months would give him the advantages, first, of being joined by General Wool, who was advancing by the road of St. Antonio de Bear; secondly, of receiving succour from the United States ; and, thirdly, of giving his government an opportunity of negotiation with Santa Anna. " From what we have seen of the spirited resistance that will probably be made by the Mexicans, it does not seem safe for General Taylor to advance on Ssltillo with a less effective force than 10,000 men. This would be necessary with or without the armistice; and the armistice, in our opinion, is no lee favourable to the one party than to the other. The American commander, then, we think, cannot be justly censured upon the strength of the information that is before us." - - . A letter from Matamoras says : A glance at the list shows the terrible suffering of the 3rd Infantry. Five officers were killed, and but 71 of the rank and file of this entire regiment were left untouched. This terrible fighting was in the streets of the town, which were barricaded and defended by artillery. The fight, too, was carried on from house to house. Many were killed in ascendin g . to the tops of the flat-roofed houses occupied by Mexican shooters. Two of the officers that fell of the 3rd, were New Yorkers, Captains L. N. Morris and G. P. Field. (Captain Field is a native of the village of Black Rock.—Eda.) The latter had been slightly wounded, and was being carried to the rear by two men, when a party of the Mexican rancheros rushed upon and savorily murdered him. Major Barbour was a nephew of Arise Barbour, of Virginia. He was a native of Kentucky, mai was brevetted to a majority in August, fur his gallant melees in the battle of Resace. Lieutenant D. S. Irwin wee the adjutant of the regiment, a universal favourite with the army, and a most promising officer. Lieutenant Hazlett, graduated at West Point, in 1843, and served in the 4th In fantry until November last, when he was promoted to the 3rd regiment. ..:aptain M'Kavett, of the Bth Infantry, is likewise a New Yorker. He fell in storming the en my's batteries on the right of the town. Captain Williams, of the Topographical Engineers, was killed in the streets. lie ex posed himself to the enemy's fire with the most absolute contempt of danger. He was a man of many accomplish ments, and great eminence in his corps. Lieutenant Hus kips was adjutant of the 4th Infantry; and Lieut. Woods, of the same regiment, was another of the gallant men who had been rewarded for services in the former battles. It will be remembered that he was conspicuous at Resaca, in which' battle he took a piece of Mexican artillery, though it was obstinately defend. d. " In the midst of our triumph over the victory, let us bestow a thought upon national justice and gratitude. Most of these officers have left their families, and it is for these I would appeal to every patriot and st atesman in the land. Give, by your legislation, to the dying warrior, the consoling thought that his life was not surrendered in the cause of an ungrateful people. Invite him to leave with confidence to your care and protection those whose support has been taken away in supporting you. " General Taylor had his horse shot under him alter enter ing the town. He continued dismounted for the remainder of the day's fight, exposed to the hottest fire from the house tope and the heads of streets." The government had received dispatches from the army of the right, by a courier arrived at St. Louis from Mazatlan, the Ist June; Chihuahua, the 15th July ; and Santa Fe, the 6th September. The follow ing is his report : General Kearney, with 1,000 men, left Santa Fe on the 3rd, for the settlements below on the Rio Grande, intending to erect a fortification at Socorro, also to visit Albuquerque. 75 miles below Santa Fe, the residence of the ex-Gor rnor Armijo, whose "whereabouts" is unknown. General Kearney was to be absent about 20 days. The murder of Arm ijo is contradicted. About 300 men, with their horses' and rattle, were ordered to the Calestello-ereek, 15 or 20 miles below Santa Fe. General Kearney was crectinga fort on an eminence to the north-east of Santa Fe, to command the whole. The Mexicans are becoming much attached to him, as he promised them protection from the Indians. They are quite pleased with our government of them. On the arrival of Colonel Price's regiment, and the battalion of Mormons, General Kearney would set out for California. Monterey is to be the place of destination, a distance of 1,200 miles. The Arkanmsriver,fnr the whole route, was dry.' According to the New York Herald, the utmost activity prevailed in organising the naval resources of the country. The Ohio line-of-battle ship was equip ping at Boston, for active service; the Pacific squadron was to be cugmented, and that in the Gulf increased, so as to allow of an immediate attack on the fortress St. Juan d' Ulloa. The Herald says: The resolute prosecution of the war will soon bring the Mexicans to terms. We rejoice to perceive that the govern ment have aroused to a thorough sense of what is due to the national honour, by going in earnest to work. Our navy has been neglected a good deal of late years, though pos sessing as gallant spirits as in its palmiest days. In our revolutionary struggle and subsequent wars, it has won imperishable laurels, and it is due to that gallant force to give It an opportunity of sharing in the glory already won in our struggle with Mexico. We feel a deep confidence in the successful operations of our navy in any demonstration made upon the celebrated fortress opposite Vera Cruz. Alluding to the exhausted state of the treasury, the same journal remarks: We learn from our Washington correspondent, under date of the afternoon of the 20th, that the cabinet were in session. and among other business before them was that of raising additional means fur carrying on the war with Mexico, and for obtainine the necessary means for the support of the ge neral government. The Treasury department is not only embarrae.ed, hut begins to suffer from its embarrassments. How could it be otherwise with such a war as we have, and such financiers as those who have originated the suh-trea sury law ? COLLISION AT SEA.--BOTH VESSELS LOST.—The ship Roman, Captain William R. Drew, from Newburyport, and the brig Maria Spear, Captain Prior, of Boston, bound from New York to Londonderry, Ire Lind, came in contact at half past three o'clock, a.m., last Monday, bow to bow. and were both so much injured that they filled rapidly, and at nine o'clock were abandoned in a sinking condition. The crews were brought to this city by the Swedish brig Albion, from Bremen, which passed just in time to see their signals of distress, and give them the necessary relief. This the cap tain of the Albion generously and promptly afforded, and treated them with great killdeer*, though his vessel was small, and 120 passengers on board of her. The Roman was a new ship, in ballast, built with great care, and insured in three of the Wall-street offices, owned by Messrs. Gordon and Talbot, and named after a ship of theirs which was lost by a Amilar accident several years ago in the English Chan nel. Her spars were not much injured, but ten or twelve planks on her bow were driven in, nearly their whole thick ness ; the seams opened from the stem to the middle of the fore-rigging; and two or three butts started four or five inches; all on or under the water line. Great efforts were made to stop or lessen the leak by nailing on battens through tarpaulins and blankets, but they were found of no avail. The Maria Spear belongs to Boston, and ie probably insured there. She was two days out from New York, with a full cargo of grain. The concussion broke off her bow sprit and both masts, stove in her bow, and the man at the wheel, named Jordan, from Beaton, was knocked overboard and drowned. Both vessels, when left, were full of water, and rapidly settling ; the weather squally, and sea running high. It was a rainy and very dark morning, and though they discovered each other before striking, it was not in time to avoid the shock. The Maria Spear was nearly on the wind, and making about four knots per hour; the Roman nearly before it, and running at the rate of nine or ten knots The explosion of the Oakland County Bank of Michigan has fallen with great severity upon the poorer classes. This is the third hank in Michigan which has exploded within the last six months ; and, notwithstanding the warning s of the press generally, the public continued to take the issues of this institution. Many have paid dearly for their misplaced confidence, and we trust it will be a lesson they will never forget. We have so frequently exposed the rotten condition of such banks as the Saint Clair, the Oakland County, &c., that it is a matter of much astonishment that a single individual can be found who will ever receive them, to say nothing about keeping them. The indifference exhibited by the public generally in relation to the solvency of the institutions the issues of which they 'so freely take, is enough to discourage the press from taking airy further trouble to protect them from the swindling intentions of those engaged in sustaining these banks, until they reach a certain circulation and the most favourable point for an explosion. Most of the banks in Michigan and other western states, which have exploded within the past five years, have been in very bad credit fur a length of time prevines to the grand crash, and every effort has been made to put the public on their guard against their bills ; but, it appears, without avail, as in every instance the result has shown that a circulation to some extent has, in spite of the frequent warnings, been obtained, generally among that class the least able to bear the loss. It is full time for the legislature of Michigan to do something in rela- Von to the banking business of that state. It is full time that the most restrictive system of banking should he per (voted for the protection of that elms of the public who will not protect themselves. Michigan has long been celebrated for its wild-cat banks ; and for the credit of the state, and to remove, if pretailde, the stigma which it now bears, the most rigid investigation should be made into the condition of those institutions which are the least tainted, and a complete revolution should be made at the earliest moment in the system of banking generally. The pre,ent system is a curse to the state,and retards the prosperity of the people more than her public debt ever did. COVMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

At a Court of Directors of the East India Company, held yesterday, George Russell Clerk, Esq., a mem ber of the government of India was unanimously appointed governor of Bombay. Mr. Billinton, a civil engineer, who has been en gaged in a survey of the Great Britain, thus reports in a letter from llundrum-bay : She is stranded on the sands on the north side of Dun dnim-bav, between two reefs of rocks, which extend a con siderable distance into the sea, about 1,000 yards asunder. Her position is north-west, with her stern to the sea, and about 130 yards above low water, and her stem 300 yards from shore. _ _ The sands average from one foot to three feet deep, upon blue gravel from nine ineht s to twenty inches thick, resting on blue mountain limestone rock, on which the hull now rides. The bay iv frequently very rough, and the vessel dif ficult to board during high ti des. The sands vary very little in this part of the bay, and whatever accumulation takes place from the southerly winds, is removed when the winds blow eastwardly, which increz:ses the facility of float ing her. On the starboard-side, the plates have been bulged, and the rivets sprung to a considerable extent, which admit freely the flowing and ebbing of the tide ; and several holes about one inch and quarter diameter have been drilled through the bottom in order to prevent her from lifting or beating. ' At spring tides there are from sixteen to seventen feet of water in her hold, and at low water she is left dry, with the exception of a small quantity of water in the dock she has naturally formed for herself in the sand and gravel, and about two feet in her bottom, and she oscillates freely during high tides. She appears much sprung and strained, has lost her rudder, and the screw propeller is slightly damned. The winders, pumps, &c., and part of the driving gear, are covered at high tide, and exposed to the action of the salt water. Her weight is about 1,600 tons (without masts, &c.), and the accumulation of wreck about 200 tons more. _ The sands on the beach at low.water are very flat, with an inclination towards the sea of about 1 in 750, and the coast barren of materials, except limestone. From the practical survey I have taken 1 am fully con vinced that the difficult task of floating her can be accom plished, and that respectable and experienced contractors may be found who will undertake to float her at a moderate cost. MANILLA TOBACCO. The revenue authorities having bad under their consideration an order of the Lords of the Treasury, dated the 22 ult., authorising them to give directions for the admission of Manilla tobacco when imported in illegal packages, eubject to thn conditions con tained to their torasuty.• o.dei or the tune or rsouary lam viz., upon payment of a fine on account of the irregularity, and upon condition that if the same be cleared for exporta tion it should be repacked into legal sized packages—orders have been issued to that effect to the several departments in the port of London, and the various outports of the United Kingdom privileged for the importation of the article, fur their information and future government. And these officers have further been made acquainted by the commissioners, that in the event of any importation of Manilla tobacco in illegal packages, they are to apprize the parties that they are at liberty to apply to the board for relief. MADAGASCAR.—A letter has been lately received from Madagascar via Bourbon, by a commercial house much interested in the opening of our trade with that country, from Captain Gevint, of the Ariel, dated from Sainte Marie. He announces that, on his arrival at Tamatave, where he had directed his vessel to make another ►ffort to obtain the merchandise which belonged to him, and had been in em bargo for more than a year, he communicated with the Hovel, and informed them that the intention of the French government was not to make war on them. They appeared much satisfied with this information, and recommended him to write to the Queen, as she alone could authorise the deli very of his merchandise. He therefore wrote to the Queen aY Imime, and sent the letter on the 18th of June, leaving Tamatave for Sainte Marie, and intending to return 20 days afterwards for an answer. The time which has expired since then leads us to suppose that he has not succeeded, and that the answer of Queen Ranavalo has not been favourable to his demand. We trust this supposition will prove incor rect.—Mauritian, July 31. COMMERCIAL 4. MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY LNTELLIGENCE.

BASINGSTOKE, Nov. 11.-This morning in the pitch market best white Wheats were from Is. to 2s. per qr. lower ; and red from 2s. to 3s. In the sample market in the afternoon the same reduction was submitted to. Good dry samples were firmer than the light and damp do. Best Bar• Icy sold at from 455. to 48s. per qr. ; good grinding, from 300 to 425.; and discoloured light samples, at from 30s. to 355. Oats was offered also at a decline of full 2s, per qr.; the best samples not making more than from 28s . to 305. ; good might be had at from 25e. to 28s. ; and moderate sam ples of black at from 245. to 255. Winter and summer Tares not much in request. Old Beans, 555. to 68e. per qr.; new, from 48s. to 523. Peas as before. NEWCASTLE, Nov. 10.-The weather has become very seaslnable; to-day we have frost, which is much in fa vour of seeding operations, with which our growers are busily engaged. At our market this morning we had a mode ' rate show of Wheat from the growers ; but, having several parcels offering from the coast, this circumstance, combined with the flat accounts received from Mark-lane, had a de pressing effect upon the trade ; and where sales occurred, a reduction of fully 2s. per qr. was submitted to. At this re duction, however, few transactions occurred, holders pre ferring to go to warehouse than to sell freely at such a de clension. Having some further accession to our supplies of Flour since Saturday, the trade ruled slow, and a concession of Is. to 2s. per sack had to be made to promote busineea, but the quantity here being considerable, we apprehend some portion will have to be landed for want of buyers. Rye is inquired for, and choice qualities are worth 48s. per qr. In other articles little alteration. BELFAST, Nov. 9.-The supplies of Grain since Friday have been moderate, condition rather improved with the weather, and prices unchanged. Indian Corn sells freely at former prices, whilst Meal is a slow sale. Wheat, per cwt., 12s. to 13s. ; Barley, Bs. to 9s. 6d. ,• Oats, Se. 9d. to lOs. ; Oatmeal. 17s. to 18s. ; Indian Corn, 13s. 9d. to 14s. ; Indian Cern Ideal, yellow, Ils. 9d. to 15s. ; white, lds. to 16e. 3d. DUBLIN, Nov. 10.-Our supplies this day are only very moderate, and the general currency of Friday wax fully maintained. In some instances Cal per barra agyance was realised on selected samples of Wheat. Prime Oats and Barley scarcely maintained former prices, and the inferior qualities of both were rather lower. The following were the rates to day paid to the farmer : Wheat, 335. to 375. for qe. "0- 4...0.4" "WO , . •-•.. IP. •n -/,'/Z 4, ISa pse Sabo. Barlc7,l7‘. to rs. per 2241tm. Oatmeal, 100. 6d. to 21s. per cwt. Flour, 20s. to 225. per cwt. for month. NEWSY, Nov. 9.—Grain of all lrinds sold without alteration from the prices quoted in our last. There was but a small supply of any dcacnption forward, but, nevertheless, there was a good deal remaining unsold at an advanced hour of the day. We quote white Wheat 13e. to 13s. 6d. per cwt.; red, 12s. to 13s. 6d. Oats, 15d. to 15Id. per atone, Indian Cara-meal is quoted 3d. per cwt. higher, the price being 15s. 3d. for both descriptions of white and yellow. Oatmeal at same price as last week. DUNBAR, Nov. 10.—There was a good supply of Barley (213 quarters) in to day's market. The other sup plies were moderate. Sales were brisk for Barley, but Wheat and Oats were not easily disposed off at the prices asked last week. Wheat, weighing 601, brought Ws., and prices to 425. Barley, weighing 551, brought 405., and prices to 28s. Oats, weighing 401, brought 295., and prices to 2,15. 6d. Beans and Peas, weighing 634, brought 23a. per boll. HAMBUGH.-The latest accounts state that Wheat on the spot was of larger supply, at 2s. to '2s. 6d. per quarter cheaper. In the outports there was also more offering, but held at high prices, except Denmark, where new Wheat was lower, being equal to 50s. 104. to 51s. 3d. per quarter. In Holstein, 621 b. wheat was held at 525. Gd. For pring delivery, Wheat was in the surrounding markets, 52a. 6d. to 545. 2d. Rye for the present delivery was quiet ; for spring delivery it sold at 47e. 4d. to 495. 10d. THE FOREIGN CORN TRADE.-The number of grain-laden vessels which passed the Sound and Belt for England, from the 28th of October to the 3rd of November, both inclusive, were 14 Wheat, 3 Barley, 4 Oats, 9 Peas, end 4 Tares ; of the foregoing, 10 visas were directed to Leith. The Baltic markets present but little of interest. In Dant:Lie the transactions of the week amounted to about 7,000 qrs. at pica varying from 51s. to 575. for high mixed, and Os. to 595. for mixed, according to weight and quality; these prices arc similar to those paying the preceding week. Let ters from Cracow advise a decline in prices, the previous re ports respecting the purchases of Wheat by the Austrian Government, proving erroneous, such purchases being con fined to the lower descriptions of food ; under these circum stances, a better supply than was expected will reach Dentine next spring; the quality of the upper Polish Wheat is spoken highly of, and, according ta present prices, will stand in 535. to 54e. free on hoard in Dantsic, in spring. Some very good Wheat may be relecetil among the present stock in granary in Dantzte, which can be held over until next spring for 41d. per quarter, offering a great inducement should present prices be thought worthy of attention. Peas were in request at 40s. per quarter for choice parcels. In the lower Baltic ports the transactions axe on a very restricted scale, and prices nominally unaltered. The sup plies are increasing, and, with dull accounts front this side, prices will probably decline. Prime new Rostock, 61 to 62Ibs. per bushel, is quoted 53e. to Ma. ; Barley, 28s. ; Peas, 40s. Freights 6s. 6d. per quarter to London. Letters from Paris report a continued advance in all the grain markets; the supply of Flour was cleared off immediately on arrival, at the advanced prices of 83 to 88 francs per 157 kilogrammes, according to quality. Leghorn letters report an active Corn trade, on account of favourable advice' from here and elsewhere. The purchases for England were 1,250 quarters of Wheat, and 3,560 qrs. of Indian Corn. The quotations are, Marianople Wheat, 51e. to 535.; Polish Odessa, 50s. to 525.; Indian Corn, 345. CA. to 355. 6d. for Tuscan, and 37e. 6d. to 395. for Black Sea and Danube. Freights, 7s. to Bs. to the United Kingdom. Odessa letters are to the 14th and 26th of October. A very large business had been transacted during the previous ten days, as much as 100,000 chetwarts being reported to have changed hands, at prices varying fiom 18 to 28 roubles, the latter price, equal to 41s. per qr. free on board, having been paid for a very fine parcel of new Wheat 64; lbs. per bushel. The majority of the sales were at about 355. to 38s. per quarter for fine new Polish 62 lbs. and 28.. to 355. for kessa rabian, and best parcels of old Wheat-some inferior stuff as low as 18 roubles, equal to 265. per qr. The arrivals con tinued very large, and the stocks in the interior arc reported to be extensive, so that purchases for spring are likely to be made on very favourable t rose. Nothing doing in freights for England, on account of the absence of English and Russian vessels. From America we have later letters by the packet-ship Joshua Bates,advising the arrival of the Caledonia at Boston, the accounts by which vessel had advanced the flour market 50 to 75 cents per barrel,'6 doh. 25c, having been paid for Genesee. Considerable business had also been trans acted in New York at the late quotations, but the (fleet of the Caledonia's advice' upon that market will not be known until the arrival of the next steamer.-Catlcy's Circular.

Fakbacon Hogs, killed, are selling at from 9s. Gd. to 11s. per score. A few lean Beast and Cows made fair prices. - - NEWCASTLE, Nov. 10.—A middling supply of Beasts, both as regards quantity and quality. Bather a Letter supply of Sheep than last week, and an unusual sup ply of Pigs. With the exception of Pigs, for which the demand is dull, all other kinds of stock are in active de mand. Prices have still an upward tendency, and the better qualities are a shade above our quotations. Prices . Beasts, neat cutters, 7a. ; Steers of the best quality, Gs. 61.; mid dling, Ga. 3d.

There was a large supply of Beef, but principally of an inferior quality, a great many Beasts changed hands. Prime fat Beef fetched full Gd. per lb. ; good barren Cows, Ileifere in calf, and anything with calf, were readily sold at good prices. The supply of good fat Mutton was rather short, and was soon bought up at from 4s. W. to ss. per stone. Store Sheep, for which there was a very great demand, were unusually plentiful, and commanded good prices. Nearly every pen was sold, and some, we understood, were sold twice over. In the Pig market business was flat. Store Pigs were plentiful, with few buyers. Towards the conclusion of the market several styes were sold at very considerably less prices than at the October market. Good English Hogs were worth 9s. per score. STEYNING Nov. 9.—A short supply of Beasts and Sheep, which sold: Beef, 45. Wcther lilutton, 6s. Bd.. ewe, 6s. Veal; 45. 6d. - - DUBLIN, Nov. 10.—In the Cattle market there was very little to notice. Some little in the contract way was done at 34e. The pressure of the country in causing more to be sold off this year than has been remembered by the oldest inhabitant. Contractors will therefore be able to purchase at leas prices than calculated. Mulch Cows are also lower in value by nearly 2135. a head on June prices. SHIPPING.
