MARK LANE.—THIS DAY. Our market was fairly 'applied with English wheat this morning by land-carriage samples from Essen sad Kent, and there were also numerous offers from Cambridge and Lincolnshire. The condition of most of the samples wits indifferent, and factors bad consequently some difficulty in maintaining former prices. Foreign wheat sold in retail at late rates. Flour underwent no alteration. Barley met with little attention; at the same time its value cannot be quoted lower. Oats were in more request, and if any alteration, the turn was against the buyer. Beans and peas Is. to 2. cheaper. INTO LONDON FROM DEC. 25 TO DEC. at. Qre. English. Scotch. Irish.

'Butane dce• to-day. lie in, A NEW SIEGE Gute.—Goverament has instructed Mr. Numyth to make a cut-iron siege gun and another engineer proposes to make one of cast steel. We have, how ever, seen the model of a gun, which, we believe, will su persede these and all others now in use. This gun is the invention of Mr. Williams, formerly of Burton, Liverpool, 1 but now of Pembroke, and the contractor for executing the government works at Milford Haven. Mr. Williams's gun can be made either of wrought iron or cut steel, and of any size. fhe coot will not be great, the efficiency undoubted. But it has one most desirable advantage over all other guns. At Sebastopol siege guns were removed with great difficulty —in bad weather not at all. Mr, Williamss gun can be carried en men's shoulders ! It is made in pieces, which pieces can be put together in a few minutes by a mere la bourer, and when put together will be stronger than any gun cut er fabricated whole. The model will be laid before the Minister of War next week.—Litierpool Journal.

COLLISION IN THE CHANNEL. LIVERPOOL, SATIIRDAT.—The screw steamship Factotum, froa Olet nook, bound from Glasgow to Ham, put into this port to day. The Factolus returned from Tuskar for repairs, having bon in contact off that head on Friday morning at 2 o'clock with the American barque Young Brander, Capt. Hamilton, from New Orleans, which vomit also arrived to day. The dimmer lay to for do hours after the collision, but could not ascertain what became of the barque until the latter arrived.

Den Beglalsrld all 1 10.000 100 Tan DIomMILMSA 361 114 121 sgatons fact that Great Britain, after thirty-ni, =sof uninterrupted pesos, has resumed the sward s at this moment engaged in one of the important struggles of modern times--it is highly ratifying to notice that no serious derangement of tba monetary or commercial interests of the country l hbean produced, whilst the public credit never eideerd ape. a firmer basis than at the present thaa, lira national funds, with the exception of a mown. S depression, attributable almost exclusively to 10111111stivs operations, have ranged throughout the a level which has Waited general earpries. It is a remarkable fact that Consols were quoted to day only 2 per cent. below the price of the corresponding period of last year, when war, though anticipated, was not declared, and when necessarily none of its expenditure had been defrayed. In the face of a heavy drain of specie for extensive purchases of grain for the support of our large foreign expeditions, and for • Turkish loan of three millions sterling, money has continued fully supplied for the purposes of trade; and though the position of commerce and politics has enhanced its value, the rate of discount has never reached a level calculated to seriously check legiti mate enterprise. The present stock of coin and bul lion in the Bank is returned at 14,137,1041., against 15,832,5991. at the end of last year, showing a decrease of only 1,716,7951., in spite of the numerous causes of deduction above referred to. The large supplies of gold received here during the year from Australia and America appear, owing to the continued activity of our general export trade, especially with Australia, to have been chiefly transmitted to this country merely en route to those regions whence the raw material of our increased foreign commerce has been drown. The export trade of 1854 has fully maintained the enormous increase of 1853, and has necessitated an active demand for capital ; but, con sidering that we have no longer to meet a heavy expenditure for corn, hopes may be reasonably entertained that—apart from the monetary influence of the war, the extent of which will be dependent upon the character of the contest itself the course of the precious metals will be more in favour of this country in 1835 than during the year now closing. The financial demands of government have been supplied without begetting pressure or interference with the ordinary course of the money market. It is, however, strongly sig nificant of the prosperity of the nation that the willingsess to bear increased taxation has, so far, prevented the necessity of a loan for war purpoees. In fad, the national debt has, on balance, been rather diminished than increased, for against the creation of 6,000,0001. Exchequer Bonds must be placed the extinction of South Sea and other secu rities to the amount of upwards of 8,000,0001. The immediate state of the exchequer is also satisfactory, all things considered, as the last return of the Bank, of England shows upwards of six ands half millions standing to credit of government, despite the present heavy war expenditure. Should hostilities continue and loans be required, the market is in a peculiarly apt position to meet them, without leading to any senors disturbance of our monetary system or to apprehensions that capital will be absorbed to ea extent calculated to restrict the supply necessary for, the prosperous prosecution of trade. During the long' peace with which we have been blessed the riches sr the country have increased in a ratio which defies calculation, which will cause any amount of money to be readily furnished in prosecution of the present contest, the immediate burthen of which will also be materiallly alleviated by the bountiful harvest accorded to us. Trade, though less active, is sound, in spite of over speculation in a few branches. On the whole we take leave of ,the old year and enter on the new one with far more of hope than of apprehension. May these favourable prognosti cations be realised! Although at one period of the day a little flatness was sh3wn, the English funds to-day generally exhi bited steadiness, and the closing quotations were the same as those of yesterday. Business was very inanimate. There was again a very active demand for money in Lombard-street to-day. This state of things may perhaps continue till the 4th January, but the approaching payment of the dividends will tend to ease the market. The telegraphic advices from the Vienna bourse indicate no further change of moment. At Frank fort, however, Austrian sto(.1: has risen nearly 11 per cent. .The Amsterdam bourse also shows an advance in the leading stocks. Consols ranged between 911 and 914, and closed at 911 to lex div. for the 10th January. In the other classes of government stocks not a single bar gain was recorded. The official business report is thus confined to this one stock, viz. :—Three per Cent. Consols, for account, 10th Jan., 911, 1,1, ex div. Exchequer Bills remain quoted 41. to 7s. prem., and India Bonds 9s. to 121. prem. The extreme variation in Consols this week has been only 1 per cent., the highest price touched having been 911, and the lowest 911. The price closed to-day exactly the same as lamb Saturday. In the foreign stock market busilless was almost at a standstill, and the only quotable change in prices wu a slight increase of firmaeas in Dutch securities. Turkish scrip fully maintains its late ad vance. At 3 o'clock Russian Five per _Cents. were quoted 97 to 99; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 87 to 89. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., GI to 62; ditto Four per Cent. Certificates, 91 to 92. Sardinian, 83 to 85. Peruvian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 69 to 71. Mexican, 201 to 211. Spanish Deferred Three per Cents., 181 to Sales are recorded as follows :—Bnenos Ayres Six per Cents., 52, 51, 53. Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 911. Mexican Threer Cents., 21. Spanish Passive Bonds (Converted ), 41. Turkish Six per Cent. Scrip (paid in full), 751; ditto for account, l6th'Jan., 75-,1. The imports of the precious metals this week have again been very small, comprising only 100,000/. in gold from Calcutta by the Tagus, and 5,2301. in sovereigns, by the Pho3nician from Sydney. The Custom-house statement also records the arrival of four cues of specie by the Martaban from Calcutta and the Cape. The Custom-house statement of the exports of the precious metals direct from London during the week comprises 2,999 ounces of gold, and 202,581 ounces of silver, representing an aggregate value of about 62,0001. Nearly the whole of these supplies was despatched to Hamburg. The particulars are an nexed, viz.: Gold coin: to the Mauritius, 819 oz.; to Hamburg, 1,000 oz. Gold bars: to Hamburg, 1,180 oz. Silver coin: to Hamburg, 31,200 oz. Silver bars: to Belgium, 4,000 oz.; to Hamburg, 167,384 oz. The only other shipment officially reported consists of 71,6001. to the Peninsula by the Madrid, which raises the ascertained shipments of the week to 133,5001. It is known, however, that the shipments of gold on private account to the continent have continued, inclusive of some amounts drawn from the Bank. To-day further parcels were taken from that institution. At Amsterdam yesterday (Friday) the exchange on London was quoted 11.75, short ; at Paris, 24.95, short; at Hamburg, 13.31; and at Vienna, 12.18. The Committee of Anglo-Peruvian Bondholders have called general mating of their coostitoenta 107 z 4 .o the Admiralty on the nth January, for the supply of 20,000 lbs. of tea, 100 tens of sugar, and 10 tons of tobacco. The half-yearly meeting of the Paris and Rouen Railway Company is to be held at Paris on the 31st Jamey, at which it will be proposed to divide the present shares into shares of smaller amount. The half-yearly dividends on the stock of the United Ripples Life Assurance Society are to be payable en the 16th Jan. The shares of the Australian Agricultural Company were rather weaker to-day, other land stocks remain ing steady. Australian Bank shares in some cases showed Oatmeal, and a fall was established in the stocks of the Bank of Australasia and Union Bank of Australia. Crystal Palace shares closed at 31 to 3:. St. Katherine Deek stock has been dealt in at 90. Amara is an abstract of the commercial advice. received by Messrs. Draper, Piet'roni, and Co., from Galatz and other ports: Oar est advices from Galati bear date 2nd (14th) Decem ber, when our friends wrote as follows : We find it impossible to give you reliable information to the stocks of grain existing here and at Ibrail ; were we to Lizard an opinion it would be most inexact. We can, however, assure you tbat the stocks of wheat at lbreil are ex hausted, and purchases far the army are now being made in our market, from whence two cargoes have alreaol been shipped swiss to Ibrail ; the stock of wheat here is assumed to be 60,000 kilos, about 139,000 quarters, ircluding old and new wheats, and prices are quoted from 115 to 135 p., equal to 21e. 31. to 255. per quarter, free on board, in cluding warehouse rent to next spring. If it be impossible to name In figures the stock of Indian corn, we can ray that the quantity is enormous, both here and at Pared, being the greater part of the crop of 1952, that of 3553, which was small, and the abundant crop of 1854 ; of the latter pur chases are being made for delivery in May next, all cash down, at 66 to 63 p., equal to 13s. 101. to 148.41., free on board, in the spring. There are, however, but few sellers. As to tallow and linseed, we can say nothing, far there is none at all, the trade being entirely lost to us ; the former owing to the disease amongst the cattle, and as to the latter our gruwere have found it more advantageous to sow other seed or grain. Owing to the' disease amongst cattle it also is very difficult to get corn down from the interior ; had it been otherwise, we should have abundant SLOW in the spring.

Although nearly a week is wanting to the expi_ ration of the financial quarter, which will be made up to Friday night next, the sth January, 1555, we believe we shall be justified in congratulating the public by anticipa tion upon the gratifying results which the revenue tables will present. It will be found that upon el the great heads or revenue there will he an increase, both in the quarter and in the year. In the Customs the increase in the quarter's revenue will not fall far short of half a miii. n, attributable, for the most part, to the increased returns received from sugar. Under the great head of Luise an increase upon the qu: - ..rtir to fully the same amount may reasonably be anticipated— and to a much greater extent upon the year, u the additional duties upon malt and spirits have for several months past been in full operation. The items at :tamps and taxes will not present so much variation. Bet the ':roperty-tax will, undoubtedly, exhibit a very con siderable increase upon the year, and to some extent also upon the quarter—though it will be remembered that the period from Oct. 10 to Jan. 5, is the least productive quar ter cf the financial year to this branch of the revenue. IL in the quarter's receipt of the Post-office a slight decrease shall be apparent, the results for the year will more than eau:ma:balance any temporary falling-off on this head. we shall probably not greatly err, if we estimate the increase upon the quarter to be not far short of a mil ' lion, it it do not exceed that amount, and upon the year at fully double that sum. This is no bad balaace.she et for the end of the first year of the war.—Olatrycr. NEW CHRISTIAN CHURCH AT SMARR—It is known that the construction of a church at Scutari, in Albania, has been authorised by a recent resolution of the Ottoman Porte. The following are the pr,ccipal passages of the tirman addressed on this occasion to the Mussuiraan functionaries of the pachalic :—" The catholic population of the town of Scutari having implored my imperial remission to build a church in the interior of the city, in whioh they might perform divine service, I have issued in writing this sacred order granting that permission. It is useless to call to mind that the tranquillity and welfare of the subjects of my Sublime Porte are one of the dearest objects of my im perial soiicitude. I have, therefore, issued an order emanating from my imperial divan relative to the permis sion for building the said church. As soon as all of you, governor, n ib, and mufti, shall be acquainted with this imperial order, take care that no one opposes the construc tion of this church in a convenient spot ; and also take care that EU a farthing be taken from the catholics for that pur pose. Know this, and obey this imperial sign. Done in the middle of the sacred month of Zelhecij, in the year 12iO .—A 14:1)nouL MEDJID." TUE CUOLERA AT ATUENS.—The 2.lloniteur has a summary . of correspondence from the Baron de Forth- Rouen, Minister of France at Athens, containing a report on the sanitary state of that city. The progress of the cholera seems now to have been checked, and the number of cases and deaths has considerably diminished. Never theless, says M. Forth-Rouen, the aspect of the capital has not changed much ; there is gill the same consternation. The shops remain closed, and if there are a few open, it is through the intervention of the authorities, who have been compelled to have recourse to force. The police events have had to perform the office of butchers, and it is of them only that can be purchased the little meat contended for by a famished multitude: The conduct of the French troops in this desolation is admirable. _ _ IR.iN BOATS FOR THE BLACK SEA, BUILT IN MAN , Cligt. , rza.—Mr. Walter Mahon, of the Ardwick Iron W , eks., is conetructing four iron boats for the government, which it is beileved ere intended to be employed by the commissariat for landing stores in the Bleck Sea. The order was nctivcd on the 20th Nov. through Messrs. Whithall, Lennon, and Co., merchants, Liverpool; and the time allowed for its completion was until January 16th.
