Accounts have arrived from India by express rio Marseilles with news to the following dates : Bom bay, Nov. 16; Calcutta, Nov. 8 ; Madras, Nov. 13; and Hong Kong, Oct. 30. The annexed is a list of the Nasengers who proceeded to Suez from Bombay on the 19th November, by the steamer Cleopatra:— B. L. Jenkins, Esq., - Bombay Civil Service ; Lieutenant 8. Bashby, 33d Regiment Madras Native Infantry ; Liens. T. C. Rigginson, her Majesty's 62d Regiment of Foot ; avid C. J. Cromwell, Esq., merchant. To Aden—The Rev. G. P. Badger and family. The following is the list of passengers, per Lady Mary Wood, who sailed on the 30th of October from Hong Kong : For England—Sir William Hoste, W. li. Medhurst, Esq., sad Captain G. Balfour. For Alexandria—E. Garrets, Esq., sad Bev. Joseph Gabet (2d ague). For the following we are indebted to our morning tentempo aies : The news from the kingdom of Lahore and the new kingdom of Jamoo represent them as both propped up by the British troops. In Jamoo there are four armies besides the troops of numerous mountain Rajahs. The four armies are, first, thatof Gholab Singh, who is strug gling to obtain possession of his purchased sovereignty, composed, as it is, of the most discordant materials; second, the army (the strength of which is unknown) of the Sheik Emauni-ood I)een, who, secure in the vale of Cashmere, refuses to submit to Gholab; third, the force under the Lahore general, Tej Singh, which has gone on the (to them) most repugnant mission of fighting for the traitor Gholab ; and, fourth, the two British divisions commanded by Generals Littler and Wheeler, who are in possession of Jamoo, the capital, which they have undertaken to protect for Gholab while ire himself is engaged in the field. The position of Gholab is ludicrously critical. He has no right or title to the sovereignty of the Hazarah (or hill-country), save that he bought it from the British, who were never in possession of it; and as he is looked upon as a traitor by the Sikhs, and as an infidel by the Mahomedans, he can have no hope, ex cept through his money (the spoils of Runjeet Singh's treasury), and through the protection of the Bri tish. He has bought and paid for the Govern ment, but the hill tribes, who are Mahomedan, refit! allegiance to him. The British authorities cannot waste blood and treasure in putting him in possession of mountain districts which he will not be able to hold. He is 'aecoming daily more and more embarrassed and indebted, and will have to yield the rule of the newly acquired country to other Petty sovereigns, who may, perhaps, pay him tribute for a few seasons. Sheik Emaum-ood-Deen, whose resources appear not to be understood, has contrived by various shifts to put off the day of surrender, until the snow HI in November. The latest news from Sir John Littler's force, which was encamped at Bukreewallah Chat, on one side of the Chenab, and Brigadier Wheeler on the other, is to the effect that they were it disappointed of the non-surrender of the Sheik, *eh ought to have been effected before the 30th, be had not taken place. The united Lahore and latish forces were delayed several days by heavy Us. The Governor-General has lately published extracts from a dispatch of the Court of Directors, authorising the erection of a column in Fort William, in com memoration of the late victories, and in honour of those who fell during the campaign. Mai joiner is to be encased, and otherwise ornamented, with metal of the captured and surrendered Sikh guns. Little more is known of the palace revolution at Khatmandoo. The Maharanee and her party, to whom the commotion gave the reins of government, still continue to hold them, although it would ap pear that the Maharajah had at length ventured from his hiding place. The lady, it seems, denies having instigated the murder of the Choumatra Prime Minister, his family, and party. There is no other political news from Madras, but the excitement consequent on the removal of the Sadder judges had not passed away. An address, signed by above 12,000 natives, protesting against the proceed ings of the executive, has been presented to one of the displaced judges. Sir Walter Scott, of her Majesty's 15th Hussars, whose health had been in a most precarious state, was rather improving. The insurgent Polygar, in Cuddapab, whose cap ture was made known by the last mail, has, in his confessions, implicated the leading men of the Nizam's country as abettors of the revolt. This co-operation on their part was before spoken of, but the best informed Europeans gave little credence to it, believing that the Hyderabad government would scarcely run the hazard of participation in a movement so impro bable of success. It does not appear that they were , suspected, even after the Polygar's aasertion, although no doubt existed of his having the sympathy, at least, of all the lawless spirits in the Deccan. In the interior of India tranquillity prevails. The Nizam's Government is undergoing a filvourable change. He has at length named as Dewan, or Minister, the native nobleman whom the British Resident had previously proposed, but to whom the Nizam had refused to grant powers. The new minister is Sooraj-001-Moolk, and is described as' being possessed of great administrative qualities. From Bombay we learn that the new Chief justice, Sir David Pollock, was sworn into office under a salute of seventeen guns from the battery, on the fore noon of the 3rd of November, in presence of a nume rous assemblage of European and native gentlemen, congregated to witness the ceremony. The whole pf the gentlemen of the bar WOO present, dressed ni their robes. The Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of Bombay returned to the presidency from Mahabu leshwur on the 6th, in the enjoyment of good health. Archdeacon Jeffreys was to leave for England by the steamer of the let of March. Her Majesty's 22nd had been suffering fearfully from fever in the Colabah bar racks. We take the following from the Telegraph: " We continue to receive most melancholy accounts of the state of her Majesty's 22.1 Regiment in the barracks at Co labah. The hospital, as well as five tents pitched outside, is full of sick; and the total number of sufferers from fever now amounts to no fewer than 183. Besides this, there is scarcely a man really well in the barracks. The number of admissions into the hospital daily . is 2-5, and the men de scribe the fever to be the same m form, duration, amt severity as that from which they suffered at Sukkur. The total strength of the companies at Colabah is 650 men, and there were 750 admissions and re-admissions from fever during the past month. At the last weekly health inspect . tion of the so:diers by the surgeon of the regiment, only 24 men of the Grenadier company paraded, and those sickly, the remainder being still all in hospital. On the 15th of August last this company, in strength about 100, marched out of Poonah in perfect bealth and efficiency, and were admitted by all to be as fine a body of men as any in her Majesty's service. The families of the soldiers suffer in the same degree as the men ; even children at the breast, we hear, are afflicted with fever and ague. At this moment the small Female Hospital appropriated to the reception and treatment of sick women and children of the 221 and Queen's Depot, is crowded with inmateQ. The space available is said to be extremely small. There is only one room, 30 feet by 14; and in this contracted space, women during their arcouchement have likewise to be accommodated. Attached to this miserable building, there is neither kitchen, lavatory, nor other conveniei,ce. " The order for the removal to Poonah of her Majesty's 22d Regiment having been received, the bulk of the corps will now take their departure with all possible dispatch. Such is the condition of the regiment that although govern ment was urgently desirous to retain 500 men for garrison duty, that number could not possibly be allowed to remain behind: 400 were as many as could be permitted to stay. The subscriptions to the new loan in Bombay are said to amount to 10 leas ; but sums subscribed in the interior were not known. They are supposed to be, at least, equal to the former amot&t. From China the news is interesting. A conflict had taken place between the Chinese and Portuguese at Macao, in relation to fiscal and general regula tions, in the course of which several of the Chinese "fast boats" had been burned and sunk. Order had been restored in consequence of the firmness of the Portuguese Governor. The Chinese have always looked upon the Portu guese as tenants-at-will, and denied their right to exercise authority over the sons of Ham, resident within the settlement, who own subjection only to their own Mandarins. The attempt to saddle them with taxes for the support of the Portuguese govern ment was, firmly resisted—many of the traders pre ferring to remove their goods and leave their shops empty to paying the income tax. The same passive resistance has not characterised others of their countrymen, the owners of the fast passage-boats employed on the river. The sum of a dollar a month was propescd to be raised from each of those running to and from Macao, the amount to be applied to keeping their wnarf in repair. Along with this a system of registration was to be intro duced, in order to have some check on the lawless fellows who occasionally join themselves with the boatmen. Senhor Joao Muria Ferreira do Amaral, upon the first refusal to obey his order, seized two fast-boats, and made prisoners of the men on board. Upon this the boatmen set about collecting and or ganising a large mob of their countrymen, who landed in the inner harbour, and commenced a violent attack, opening a fire upon the Portu guese from a four-pounder they had brought with them. The governor thereupon ordered out the troops, who speedily dispersed the assailants, killing ten or twelve of them, and destroy ing all their fast-boats, of which ten were burned and eight sunk. The Chinese then resorted to a favourite manoeuvre of theirs, to close their shops in the bazaar, to starve out the enemy. But tae determination of the governor speedily overcame this difficulty, for ho announced that if by a given time the bazaar was not opened and furnished with supplies, he would fire upon and destroy it. This had the desired effect, and all was again quiet. According to the following, which is given as an *act from a letter, said to be written by an officer a Sir J. Littler's staff, and received in Bombay when tte mail was closing, the troops advancing on Cash are had been ordered to fall back, in consequence, it tas supp‘e.ed, of a satisfactory conclusion of the ar angements with the insurgents. " The bricale under Brigadier Wheeler, C.B , marched Gm the right bank of the Chenab towards Bheembur, on he p"waine of the 31st October, and at the same time the de, with division head-quarters, commenced crossing enter ; the 12th Native Infantry and .ith troop Ist brigade me Artillery, crossed on the 31 , t; next ally the 2el COM.. • 6th battalion Artillery, with No. 9 light field battery, ademweel, and were marching to camp, when an order as received directing them to tetras& The 424 Regiment tl4 Infantry ‘48.4 stopped in the act of crossing, and 'arched back to camp. No doubt Sir John Littler has had Pa tant and satkfactory news from Colonel Lawrence, Mahwe hop , ha, been able to arrange matters between arajah GoolabSingh and Sheik Emaum-00-deen. Should is be the ease, we may look forward to the evacuation of e Punisub by our troops before New Year's-day. It is a 14 tract of country about Sealkote and westward in the tins of Illieemur, the climate in October very peasant tents, nights cold, with a bracing wind and cheering wof the snow-capped mountains to the north. It is Tbahle that Coo dirmsion will fall back on Lahore, via utzetrabad." 411 Singh, who is Vizier at Lahore by tho per ission of the British, lately succeeded in bringing to t capital the Nazira of Moultan, from whom he ed in obtaining promissory notes to a large aunt; he then bestowed various honours on the timm, and gave him leave to go home, where it is table he will speedily contrive some means of oidi a g Ltte payment of the notes.

He has a splendid fo rce in and about the Punjab, espable, if needs be, to put down the most formid able outbreak should any occur--though the unsettled state of Affghanistan affords little probability of any hostile demonstration from that quarter. The safety of Lords Elphinstone and Arthur Hay, the Hon. Captain Hardinge, and other gentlemen who were supposed to have been seized and murdered by the Cashmerees, has been proved by their return to Simla after an unmolested and interesting tour among the hills and valleys of that beautiful region. The latest news from Cabool is to the 24th August, bat of no great moment. The country seems in a most.miserable condition, with, as the Delhi Ga:elte's [ correspondent says, an impotent ruler, a cruel Wuzeer, a starring army, and merchants ruined by the plunder of their kafilas." The marriage of Akhbar Khan with the daughter of Yar Mahomed of Herat had been celebrated with as much pomp and fes tivity as the poor court of Cabool could corn [ pass. Ent the bridegroom was afflicted with sore I eyes, which made him more than usually irritable, and the fruits of certain evil deeds of his were now springing forth in the shape of an insurrection among the Ghilzies ; and thus, partly from bodily suffering, and partly from the mental pain arising from his father's reproaches, and the maledictions of the people, the time must have been one of anything but pleasure or happiness to Akhbar Khan. From Scinde there is no news of importance. Sir Charles Napier was at Kurrachee, where the climate was pleasant. Preparations are going forward for the removal of five native regiments from Scinde in the, course of January or February next, unless their presence should be required by any disturbance with out the frontiers. It will speak volumes for the system of Sir C. Napier, if, after the settlement of the Punjaub, such a la rge force can be removed from Sciatic without any disturbance being created there. Sir Charles presented colours on the 4th of November to the Ist Bombay Fusileers. His address was most effective. There is nothing important eon , — Calcutta. rtLA No. 102.] LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, DEC. 28, 1846. [3d. THE PUNJAUB AND CASHMERE. (From the Butnimy Times.) The tranquillization of the discontented Sikh dis tricts, which promised to advance favourably at the date of last despatch, has all but realised its promise. We formerly noticed the simultaneous advance of the two large forces under Brigadier Wheeler and Major-General Sir John Littler— the former from the Jullundnr Doab, the latter frcm Lahore—both proceeding in the direction of Cashmere. The following notice of these movements, and of the present position of the troops, has been furnished to us by an officer with General Littler's force. It is later in point of date than any communi cation from the same quarter we have seen: "LATEST NEWS FROM HEAD QUARTERS OF THE PUNJAVII Divistost, °cr. 31, 1846. "Camp Bukree Wallah, left bank of the Chenaub. "81r John Littler marched from Lahore on the 15th inst., arrived at Sealkote on the 21st, and has commenced cross ing the Chenaub to-day. The 12th Native Infantry, sth troop of the let brigade of Horse Artillery, 2nd company of the 6th battalion of Foot Artillery, with No. 9 light field battery, are directed to crews today; Her Majesty's 80th Foot, the 42nd and 45th regiments of Native Infantry, and the wing of the second Irregular Cavalry, complete the bri gade marching with the Major-General, and which is com manded by Lieutenant-Colonel Huish. C. 8., senior officer present. The brigade under the command of Brigadier 'Wheeler, C. 8., is one march in advance, moving towards Bimbur. It consists of the 15th, 30th, and 33rd regiments of Native Infantry, 4th troop let brigade of Horse Artillery, and 4th Irregular Cavalry. Detachments of Sappers are with each brigade, and a large depot of medical stores—upwards of 100 camel loads—accompanies the division. The *noun lain tops to our north-west are now covered with snow?' Colonel Lawrence, agent for the Governor-General, it will be remembered, quitted Lahore on the 15th of October, with a view of joining the foremost of the advancing troops. He joined the combined Sikh armies of Gholab Singh and Tej Singh at Naushera on the 18th. His assistants, Cap tain Brougham, and Lieutenants Edwardes, Nicholson, and Wroughton, had arrived there before. Some daps before this, the leader of the insurgents, Sheik Emaum-ood-deen, had intimated his desire to submit ; anti in evidence of his sincerity ordered the sie e of Hanes Penns. Is• pearled, 09 ess Jaime troops were en gaged With the insurgents, the former being successful. About this time l'uqty, r Cola Khan, Chief of Rajouree, and son of Rnheem Ooh Khan, one of the most active leaders in the rebellion, surre..dered himself to Lieutenant Ed wardes ,at Neosho a, and it was intimated that on the 23d the Sheik himself was about to quit Cashmere with the inten tion of surrendering. It is probable his purpose might have been altered, and his departure delayed, sa he had not, ea far as appears, been heard of at the head-quarters of Sir J. Littler on the 31st. Extended information dispels the de lusion that the Cashmere insurrection was the result of any general feeling of indignation amongst the people, awakened by aversion to the rule, or hatrei of the oppression, of Gholab Singh. The excitement seems to have owed its origin to the machinations of two or three individual chiefs, who, caballing together for their own personal ends, ma naged to collect followers, and to incite all the idle, die honest, find discontented, to insurrection, who hoped to gain by any change. The cause has none of the dignity .if a war of independence; there is uo reasou to be lieve the Jamoo chief more tyrannous or unpopnlar than hie predecessors, and no grounds for our sympathy with those who have combined to resist his swum rity. With the surrender of the leaden there is every reason to expect that the rebellion will he quickly brought to an end. Matters have, at length, been finally, and, ap parently, satisfactorily settled with the Mooltan Chief, who has agreed to pay 35,0001. in the shape of arrears of tribute —one-third of the territory formerly under his charge to be formed into a separate province, to be governed by Misr Bhugwan Singh. The revenue of the remaining two-thirds was to be raised one-fourth above what was formerly charged on it. The father of the present Chief of Meehan, the sagacious Dewan Sawun Mull, was originally a councillor at the court of Runjeet Singh, and received the viceroyalty in consideration of his personal services and the regard entertained for him by his Sove reign. The revenue paid was fixed at a specified sum for , each particular district; and though 'a man of much autho rity and importance, he never had the slightest claim to independence. Successive usurpatious of patronage am! authority by degrees increased the power of the local go vernment, until the disorders of Lahore, and the weakness and dissensions of the Durbar, enabled the newel' hloolmj to brave them for a time with impunity. He will by this time have reached his own capital, formally re-invested with antho ri,y, and with every ground of jealousy and misunderstand ing removed.

A fair amount of banners. continues to be done for Mamitlets and Bourbon, and prices of suitable descriptions have slightly advanced.

At the date of our last it was expected that Lord He/dingo would have left Simla on the 24th a October. His lordship, however, left on the 20th, proceeding to Kalka to join the camp formed for his escort, which place they would leave on the 2nd, taking the route of Loodaliana,Phulloor,and llosheear poor, to Jullundur. The 73rd Native Infantry were at Kalka, awaiting his lordship's arrival. The body guard reached Pinjore on the 30th of October. The Vice-Repl camp was expected at Loodiana about the Bth of November. It is reported that Lord Gough also proceeds to Noorpoor, in the new province, in the beginning of December. The lion. Cap tain Hardinge, Lord Arthur Hay, and Lord Elphinstone, have all reached Simla in safety from Cashmere. Large bodies of troops for the relief of the force now in theJullundur, and to replace those withdrawn from Ferozepore, continue moving towards the frontier, The 2nd European Regiment left Subathoo for Loodiana and Hosheearpoor in the 1)oab on the 24th of October. They reached the former station on the 2nd, in time to form part of the Governor-General's escort to the latter place, where they would probably remain to preserve the peace during the ensuing annual fair. The 57th Native Infantry reached Uclhi on the 23rd, in progress to the station of Noorpoor, in the Jullundur 1)oab; and the Bth Native Infantry on the following day, en route to I'hnlloor. The left wing of the 50th Native Infantry left Moradabad on the 23rd for the frontier ; and the 17th Native Infantry has been divided ;—the left wing proceeding to Jalown, the right to Hansee; the latter reached Kalpee on the 24tb. Her Majesty's 50th Foot left Meerut for Forozepore on 27th Oct. The 55th Native Infantry reached .Moradabad on 22nd. The 52nd Native Infantry was to leave Goruckporc on the 10th November for Jullundur. The 11th Cavalry marched from Loodiana on the 3rd for Jullundur. The 30th Native Infantry reached the same sta tion on the Ist, and was to leave for the same destination on the 4th. The 72nd Native Infantry reached Loodiana on the 2nd, under command of Cap tain Abbott. The head-quarters proceed on to Kangra, leaving detachments at I'hulloor and Hosheearpoor. The 15th Irregular Horse was to leave for Mookerian in the lloab on the sth. The "Regiment of Loodiana" was nearly formed, and were expecting shortly to leave for Meerut. Another Sikh regiment is about to be embodied at Loodiana, the Governor-General having determined on raising an extensive contin gent, formed entirely of Sikhs, for service on the frontiers. Large quantities of treasure and warlike stores are being sent to the frontier—the latter in case they may be needed. The whole of th^ troops beyond the Sutlej have been put upon Scinde pay and allowances. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Calcutta Englishman.) Many staples have of late been in better demand, and, but for the interruption to business caused by the intervention of several native holydays, it is probable we should have had a much more extensive business to report. In exports, with the exception of one or two articles, the business done has been limited, and will probably con tinue so until more satisfactory accounts are received of the state of the . home markets, as prices here remain almost stationary. Ex change has been steady at front Is. Ild. to Is. Ili& at 10 months' date; but netwithstseding the continued heavy remittances from home, neither drae ere nor purchasers have been showing much anxiety to operate. In Government securities there has of late been somewhat more doing, but without any general advance on their previous low cur rency. In bank stocks but few idles have been reported, but holders are firm for the rates quoted in our last. Freights have slightly ad vanced, and are now sumiy at our quotations, but their future ruling must in a great measure depend on the accounts we are to receive by the mail now considerably overdue; for, although there are at pre sent an unusually large number of vessels loading for Great Britain, the majority of them have the greater portion of their dead weight already engaged. Our money market has continued easy, which may in some degree be accounted for by the long period which h a s elapsed since the lam opium sale, and the consequent absence of any drain on that account ; we observe, however, that the monthly Wee of the season commence on the 30th, with one of 2,400 chests ; and it is said speculation is al ready rife in the bazaar as to the result. Isuum.—We have nothing new to report with regard to the pre sent crop, the whole of which must ere this have been housed, and therefore abide by our estimate of 90,000 until the invoices are re ceived, when an alteration of 2,000 maunds may be rendered °ems sary by the result of the weighing off. The October moorings for next season, on which the success of many concerns in lower Bengal in some measure depends, have been placed in jeopardy by unusually heavvyy and continued rains from the middle of the post up to the bgtmmng of the present month, which must have ruined a great portion of what seed has been put into the ground, and will delay the completion of sowing so materially, that, should the season prove at all cold, as some anticipate from the late rain, the result must be very precarious. Scene.—The unusually heavy stacks, and moderate demand exist ing for this staple about the middle of last month, rendered holders anxious to realise, and induced them to moderate their demands some whatconsequence or which, although the actual decline has been inconsiderable, purehasers have of late entered the market pretty AMERICA. By the packet ship Baltimore, arrived at Havre, we have recounts from New York to the 4th inst. The news is not important. Mr. M'l)uffie has been obliged, by the state of his health, to resign his scat in the Senate. The greet entertainment to Mr. IVebster had come off at Philadelphia. In his speech he passed in review the acts and omis sions of the Polk Administration, the conclu sion of the Oregon Treaty, the annexation of Texas, the adoption of the new tariff, and the war with Mexico, with much severity. He was received with immense applause, and it would seem that, both in Philadelphia and elsewhere, the prospects of the Whigs were good. We subjoin the latest commercial intelligence from the New - York Courier and Enquirer. The Stozk market was heavy this morning, and all descrip tions fill off in price. Exchanges were firm, without any particular demand. Currox.—The sales to-day have been moderate, in con sequence of the unfavourable state of the weather. Prices are very firm. FLOUR —The storm of rain and snow has retarded opera tions. 3,000 to 4,000 barrels Michigan and Geneve have been sold at a dais 23e. to 5 dols. 31;e. Common southern kinds are inactive. By our foreign express arrived this morning we have Paris journals of Sunday. They communicate nothing of importance. 'Clic rumoured indisposition of the King was understood to be without the slightest foundation. ANOTHER ACCIDENT ON TIIE EDINIWRGH AND GLASGOW RA ILWAT.—A correspondent who dates " Edin burgh, Saturday evening." writes as follows: " There has, I understand, been a dreadful sm►shing to-day on the Glasgow Railway. The particulars have not transpired yet." COMMERCIAL 4 MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'Clock.—There is very little doing in the English Funds to-day ; the market on the whole, however, is not quite so firm, Consols for the opening being 944 buyers. In the heavy stocks there is scarcely any business doing. Exchequer Bilis are quoted Ss. to 12s. premium. In the Foreign Market Spanish Actives are a shade lower, having been done at 251 to 4. Portuguese mark 384. In the other securities there is no change. Quarter to Three o'clock.—The stack market is flat. Con sols are now quoted at 91 to 1 ; Mexican Bonds, 241 to .1.

GUILDFORD, DEC. 26.—There was a large market of Wheat, with scarcely any demand. What sales were made were at a reduction of 2s. to 3s. per qr. front the ex treme rates of last week, but buyers were altogether unwillng to purchase even at this reduction. The be,t price realised was 20/. Barley was not so plentiful, and the trade had an upward tendency, the prices being 2s. per or, higher ; top, 495. Oats, 255. to 20s. Beans, 40s. to 455. Peas, 445. to 475. MASCIIESTIE, DEC. 26.-At our market to-day, there is more diopeeition for business on the part of hovel*, who, however, amply magjAnardllegir eat pretreat rates; Lai the fact is, that so lowldat mar 'stooks hfte, that there is comparatively nothing in the . 4ay of 6delror manufactured stuff to meet extmsive demand, and as the late foreign arrivals go almost wholly into bond, the stocks avaiable for consumption are httle, if at all increased. We make no particular alteration in our quotations, but the general tendency of prices is upwards.

On Thursday ever.ing as well as yesterday a good deal of snow fell, since which it has been extremely frosty. This severe weather, erupted with the great wants of Ireland and Scotland, is calculated to sustain present prices, of all grain, should supplies not prove more liberal than hitherto we may even look for an advance occurring, the extent of which will be regulated by the dis position manifested to sell or otherwise. At our market this morning we hail a fair show of Wheat from the growers, and the arrivals coastwise are also pretty liberal, notwithstanding which, however, fresh thrashed samples were taken off readily at an adveucc of Is. to 2a. per quarto, whilst at the same time a fair business was done in south country qualities as well as free foreign at a similar im provement. During the week our market has been visited by buyers from Scotland, who purchised a few hundred quarters of foreign at 66e. for red, and 688. for Dantric, at which rate the buyers would have gone on, but holders were not generally willing to sell freely, from an impression that even higher terms will be acquired shortly for such qualities. For Flour there has been a steady though not beak inquiry at 50s. for choice households, and 525. for whites. Rye is much wateed, and must again be quoted 2s. higher. Upon malting Barley we raise our quotations Is. to 2e. per qr., but our brewers pay the advance with great reluctance. For grinding descriptions our quotations may be deemed quite nominal, there being nothing of this sort offering upon our market. Malt unchanged. Both Beans and Peas are attract ing more attention, and the latter article may be written Is. to 2s. per qr. dearer. Notwithstanding the supply of Oats from the country was large, sales were quickly effected at an advance of fully Is. per qr.

Nnitwicit, Dec. 26.-The weather, during the last few days, has been more favourable, and our rivers are now free from ice, therefore there has been a good delivery of Corn, &c. to the ships side at Yarmouth. The quantity of Wheat from the farmers on sale to-day is good, but there is not so much as usual by the rail, and the demand is very lively at rather higher prices than last week, especially for choice lots of white and red. Barley is the turndearcr again. Oat-, Peas, and Beans are also a shade higher in price, with a good demand. Flour the same as last week, and more iluing in this article. Free on board at Yarmouth.

READING, Dec. 26.-We had a fair supply of Wheat, which sold at the extreme currency of last week. Barley very short in supply, and full 2+. per qr. dearer. The same also applies to Oats. Beans and Peas of an upward tendency. St: NDERIAN 11, DEC. 26.-The weather continues intensely severe, and the farmers, having nothing to do but to thrash, have been tempted by recent high prices to do so freely ; and there was a plentiful supply of Wheat at market to-day, which was sold freely at but week's rates. There have been no arrivals from the coast. Fine South Country Wheats and good foreign are saleable at improved rates. The best prices to-day far country Wheat, 70s. to 725., and for good average samples, 645. to 665.; old Wheats obtain 50s. to 565.

WINCHESTER, DEC. 26.-The trade was dull, as the sellers were firm in demanding a further advance of from 10s. to 15s. per load for Wheat., which the purchasers were unwilling to tocede to ; the business done was, therefore, but small in comparison with other weeks. Some samples of best Wheats may be quoted as having , old at 2a. per qr. ad vance, yet much remained unsold. The best terms we observed was, 171. 10s. per load for white Wheats ; at from 15/. to 161. red. Good heavy Barleys were much in request, and very scarce: two or three best samples realised 50s. per qr.; and other descriptions may be stated 2s. per qr. higher. In Oats there was a brisk demand at an advance of from Is. to 2s. per qr. over last Saturday's quotations. Beans and Peas, the few sold were at a further rise of 2s. per qr.

'ORCESTER, DEC. 26.-We had very few far mere in our market to-day. What little business has been transacted was nominally as last week. In consequence of the severe frosts the inland navigation is again stopped, and, until an alteration takes place in the weather, the transit of grain hence to Birmingham and the district of South Staf fordshire will be comparatively but trifling. YORK, DEC. 26.-We have a small show of Wheat at market this day ; and, from the extreme prices Baked by our farmers, little business has been done.
