958 and the Ottoman Porte is expected to guarantee six per cent. to the Euphrates Valley Railway Company upon 8,000,0001. for ninety.nine years. The Revenue Returns for the quarter ending September 30, and the Board of Trade Tables for the month and eight months ending August 31, are both favorable. The provincial Trade reports for the week lead ns to believe that less manufacturing production has been going on than for some weeks past, owing to a scarcity of money and the high prices of raw materials. The foreign trade is very active. BANK OF ENGLAND. As Account, pursuant to the Act 7th and Atli Victoria, cap. 32, for the week ending on Saturday, the 27th day of Sept, 1850. HOME DEPARTMENT.

CORN EXCHANGE The present week's arrivals of English wheat up to our market, coastwise and by land carriage, have been very moderate, and the show of samples has been limited for the time of year. Selected wheats have mot ed off steadily, at very full prices; but inferior kinds have ruled inactive, on former terms.

Floating cargoes have continued steady, but we have no change to notice in their value. There hits b .en a slight improvement in the barley trade, and prices generally have been well supported. The malt trade has ruled firm, at full quotations. Oats, beans, peas. and flour —the supplies of which have been small—have continued in re quest, at last week's currency. b;t4ousH—Wheat, Essex and Kent red, 6311 to 695; white, 64s to 765; Norfolk and Lincoln red, 62s to 69e.
