CORN EXCHANGE. The supplies of wheat on sale in the leading country markets held on Saturday were somewhat on the increase. For all kinds the demand ruled heavy, and prices had a drooping tendency. In the value of spring corn and flour very little change has taken place. Most of the continental markets are firm for wheat as to price, but the business doing in it is only moderate. Spring corn has undergone very little change. In the United States prices continue to rule high. The arrivals of home-grown produce up to our market last week were moderate. From abroad the imports were rather limited for the time of the year—viz., 5,051 qrs. of wheat, 3,900 barley, 34,514 oats, 2,307 beans, 2,604 peas, 27,790 linseed, 11,454 rapeseed, 40 sundry seeds, and 150 sacks of flour. Fresh up to-day, the arrivals of English wheat, coast wise and by land-carriage, were only moderate, and the show of samples was consequently rather limited. Fine samples of both old and new wheat, which were very scarce, were disposed of at about last Monday's currency ; but low and damp qualities moved off heavily, at a further decline in the quotations of from lc to 2s per quarter, at which de cline sales progressed with-cliffieulty. • We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily, supplied with foreign wheat. Good and fine samples sold on former terms ; but other kinds were very dull, and drooping in price. Floating cargoes of grain commanded very little attention The few fine samples of barley in the market realised very full prices. All other kinds were dull, but not cheaper. There was a slow inquiry for malt, at last week's currency. We had a fair demand for oats, and prices generally were well supported. Beans were firm in price, but the demand for them was by no means active. In peas a moderate business was transacted at full quotations. The flour trade was heavy, and country marks were rather cheaper. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

A fair average supply of home-fed beasts was received up this morning, but its general quality was by no means first-rate. Prime Scots, crosses, Devons, &c., were in fair request, at prices equal to Monday last ; but inferior breeds moved off slowly, and in some instances quotations had a drooping tendency. The general top figure for beef was 4s 8d per 81b. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, we received 2,200 shorthorns and crosses ; from other parts of England 700 of various breeds ; from Scotland 100 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 360 oxen and heifers. Some of the latter were remarkably good. With most breeds of sheep we were extensively supplied, and there was a slight improvement in their general condi tion. The primest Downs and half-breeds sold slowly at last Monday's currency, via., 5s 2d to, in a few instances, 5s 4d per 81bs. Otherwise, the mutton trade was rather heavy, on easier terms. The supply of lambs was rather limited, yet the demand for them was less active, at about the currencies realised on this day se'nnight, viz., from 4s 8d to 6s per Sibs. Calves—the show of which was tolerably good—were a dull sale, and td per 81bs lower than on Thursday. We have to report a dull inquiry for pigs, at late rates.

TIIAMES. DARING ROBBERY AT THE LONDON DOCKS —A man named Donovan was charged with the following robbery of brass beams, in conjunction with other persons not in cus tody. It appeared from the evidence that on the afternoon of Saturday, one of the prisoner's companions was observed to be passing the beams under the Shadwell- gate of the London Docks. The prisoner was outside the gate, and observed to a man who was watching there that if he (the man) did not leave he would do for him. The prisoner went away, but was joined in a few minutes by his com panion, and they both left the neighbourhood. Shortly after the prisoner was observed on Shadwell-bridge, at a short distance from the docks. He was shown to a police man as one of the men concerned in the robbery, and was given into custody. The man who was seen at the dock gate with him made his escape. The engineer of the company said that the the brass beams were for the engine in the engine-room, and were worth about £3. There were three other sets of brass beams missing. He did not know the prisoner. The prisoner denied that he was the guilty party, and said that the witness was mistaken as to his identity. He was not near the dock gate at the time of the robbery. He called two females in support of his statement. The evidence of his witnesses went to show that at the ime of the robbery he was with them near the Minories. Tho prisoner was committed for trial. TILE AMERICAN PRESIDENC'T. On the subject of the next presidential election and the political prospects, the New York Herald of the 23d ult. says : The organisation of the new House of Repre; sentatives in December next will involve amost ex traordinary conflict of sections,parties,and factions in reference to the presidential succession. It will be the opening battle of the campaign, and its re sults will go very far to determide the organisation of parties and their relative strength in the general November election of 1860. The following table exhibits the strength of the Republicans, Demo. crats, anti-Lecompton Democrats, and Southern opposition factions respectively, in the elections which have been made to this new Congress : Rep. Dem. A.L.D. S. Opp. Maine Massachusetts Vermont New York New Jersey 3 0 2 0 Pennsylvania. 2O 2 3 0 Ohio l5 6 0 0 Indiana Illinois Michigan 3 Wisconsin lowa 2 Delaware ..

The Republican managers, however, cal culate in.the house organisation upon the cordial co-operation of such anti-Lecomptonites as Clarke and Haskin, of New York ; Adrain, orw Jersey ; and Hickman, of Pennsylvania. With the office of house clerk to Forney, and the printing to some such firm as Blair and Rive, it is probable that the Republicans may secure their Speaker." 9(1'..; pieces and locks, is 3d to is 9d; unwashed, lld to is td.

SPORTING NOTES. LOOMING IN THE FUTURE. The St. Leger is rapidly approaching, and yet speculation is scarcely stirred. People watch the daily returns of quo tations until they become tired of the monotony which the same figures present. Promised Land holds his pride of place, and the most determined opposition is seemingly un able to sink him in the price current. Marionette has superseded Trumpeter, whose " linked sweetness long drawn out," is not likely to be very much relished by his backers. Summerside has returned to her old price, and the reports which were industriously circulated in Bell's Life about her "putting out curbs," is, I am informed, all bosh, and merely a weak invention of the enemy. The ranks of the outsiders have received an im portant accession in Comforter, who, I trust, will be to his backers what his name implies. From those ranks, how ever, Burgomaster has been removed. He has broken his leg and has been destroyed. Really I cannot find more trustworthy outsiders than Defen3 er and the best of John Scott's lot—perhaps Phantom. The Warwick Meeting excites little expectation. The supply of sport will be meagre, and the racing unmarked by any incident of importance. Still a good muster of turfites will be present, and they will be on the tiptoe of curiosity for the weights for the Cesarewitch and Cam bridgeshire Stakes. Doubtless several horses will "per form" in anything but their true characters, but "the Admiral" is not likely to have his weather eye closed as to their true merits. Until the last day or two no decided demonstration was made in favour of Independence for the Leamington Stakes—he was rather nibbled at, than swallowed out right. Now, however, money has been invested on him in earnest, and I am induced to share the confidence of his backers. Gaspard is not a good horse. He possesses a negative merit, but he seems to " stay" pretty well. Still I fancy the deep, flat, and heavy course at Wolverhampton was more adapted to him than the up and down hill at Warwick. Commodore is entitled to notice, simply on ac count of his lenient impost. His success is not improbable, and I shall therefore couple him with Independence to re present my interest. The results of the minor races cannot be distinctly-sha dowed forth. Either Pandora or Lady Eglinton ought to win the Short's, but the two• yr-old has so many engage ments at this meeting that one is puzzled to determine for which she may be intended. Orleans may win the Avon Stakes, and his party—unless he possesses more merit than has yet met the eye—may not be sorry to part with him for the stipulated " century." He must hare cost them enough in all conscience. For the Castle Park Stakes I shall select Cheesecake. Newcastle has shown so much form lately that I am compelled to trust him for the Warwick Cup, especially as he has been so much "exposed" lately that his running cannot aft his weght for the autumn handicaps. The Members' Plate will perhaps be won by either Theodora or Orleans, and for the Town Plate I shall select Bel Esperanza and Conqueror. I know so little respecting the probable starters for the Nursery that I have a diffigulty in making a selection; however, I feel inclined to pay court to Lady Eglinton. Yellow Rose may winthe County Stakes and Lord Berkeley the Welter Cup. A FRESH MAN. THE HOUSE dF' LON&MAN AND' Co The retirement of Mr. Brown, and the death of a former partner, Mr. Orme, have naturally directed attention to this, with one exception, the oldest house in the trade in London. Like some of our other well-known institutions, its origin is lost in obscurity, although, unlike many of them, we are able to trace the founder, or, at any rate, the first of the dynasty, in the person of Mr. Thomas Longman. When the house commenced business we know net ; the first time we find the name is on the title-page of " An Inquiry into our Ideas of Beauty and Virtue," published in 1725 by J. Osborn and T. Longman; and the same year we find a book of. Whiston's bearing the same names. At this time the sign of their house was the' Ship," which in 1730 became the " Ship and Black Swan." What became of J. Osborn we cannot tell ; but in 1736 we find Thomas Longman alone in business, which he appears to have carried on very success fully until his death in 1755; his widow survived him, and died in 1762. On the death of the first Thomas Longman, a nephew of the same name suc ceeded to the business. He is said to have been a man of most exemplary character, and universally esteemed for his uprightness in business and for his benevolence in private life. He died at Hampstead, Feb. 5, 1797, leaving two sons ; George, the second one, M.P. for Maidstone, was a stationer in partner ship with John Dickinson ; Edward, the youngest, was drowned at sea ; Thomas Norton, the eldest, succeeded to his business and to many good points of his father's character. The business, previous to this time, had been much increased by the purchase or acquisition of some of the best copy rights of the dap, and by opening accounts with a large number of the best houses in the provinces; it had also b ee n l arge l y engaged in the American trade, and, to the honour of the booksellers of that country be it said, that after the declaration of in dependence they did not repudiate the debts in curred as colonists. Mr. Owen Rees entered in 1794, and soon afterwards became partner, and the business was carried on as Longman and Rees till 1804. Mr. Rees retired from the business at Mid summer, 1837, but died Sept. 5, in the same year. In 1804, Mr. Cosmo Orme, a valued assistant, had entered into partnerships with Mr. Thomas Hurst, who had got together a large country business ; but it was thought desirable to retain his services, and the firm became that of Longman, Hurst, Rees, and Orme. From this time may be dated the great rise in the fortunes and business of the house. They published large and expensive works, and as sumed the first position in the trade, a position they have kept ever since. About this time they also engaged largely in the old book-trade. We have before us at this moment one of the catalogues for the year 1813, containing enough articles to enable Dr. Bandinel to commit a breach of the tenth com mandment, although he has the whole Bodleian library to himself. In this scarce and curious quarto volume we find the celebrated "Roxburgh . Ballads," now in the British Museum ; a Pennant's " London," marked £3OO ; a Granger's " Biographi cal Dictionary," £750; a Lyson's "London," £650; Pilkington's "Dictionary of Painters," £420; two volumes of " Cromwelli ana " £250; an extraordinary assemblage of Caxton's, ) Wynkyn de Worde's and other early printed books, one sup posed to date from 1446 ; a unique assemblage of " Garrickiana," and many other articles of a matchless character. But this old-book room is of the things of the past. We re member the last of it at Sotheby's. In or about the year 1794 the business of Mr. James Evans, a wholesale bookseller in the Row, who failed, had been acquired. and this, with the business brought by Hurst, placed the house of Longman in the front rank not only of publishers, but as wholesale book sellers, as at this time their country, business was one of the first, if not the very first in the Row. Mr. Hurst unfortunately got mixed up in some bill transactions with other houses in the trade, and was compelled to leave. He left the house in the early part of 1826, and died an inmate of the Charter-house, June 2, 1847, aged 72. The year 1811 ushered in another partner in the person of Mr. Thomas Brown, whose retirement was gazetted so recently as June last. Mr. Brown's father, Mr. Christopher Brown, was, like himself, well known in the Row, by having passed all his life there; he was apprenticed to Mr. Richard Baldwin, but left that house for Longman's when there were but three other assistants ; he remained all his life, and there " never was an as sistant in any establishment that possessed more assiduity and integrity, or with an acuteness of feeling for the interest of his employer that could be exceeded ; the business he got through, even at an advanced period of life with clearness, precision, and expedition, was truly astonishing," and, as may readily be supposed, he was a great favourite with Mr. Longman, who left him a small legacy when he died in 1795. But Mr. Christopher B rown's great friend was Mr. Thomas Evans, a testy Welsh man, who carried on a large business at No. 32, in. the Row, having begun life as porter to Mr. J. John son of Ludgate hill. On magazine nights, Mr.Brolvn, after leaving Longman's, used to assist him ; they appear to have been of kindred habits, and Evans left him the bulk of his fortune when he died in 1803. He, however, did not long enjoy it, for his death took place in 1807. His son, the present Mr. Thos. Brown, who received his education at Christ's Hos pital, where he was the contemporary of Chas. Lamb, Lloyd, Coleridge, and Le Grice, entered the house as a lad in Oct., 1792, and was apprenticed in Dec., in the same year, and in 1811 became partner. Un like most others, he has all along lived in one of the houses occupied by the firm, and although no longer a member cannot make up his mind to leave the domicile of nearly 70 years. During the term of his partnership Mr. Brown managed the cash department, and it is not too much to say that in no house in the trade has there been greater re gularity in the payment of accounts, and also in what is of so much consequence in a publishing house, in the keeping of authors' accounts, sd that there never was any shuffling or irregularity. An author could always learn, at stated times, what was coming to him, and when he might receive it. We hope for many years to come to see the well-known form promenading the shady court of the Stationers' Hall, or enjoying the quietude of Amen-corner, or studying the picturesque architecture of Warwick square. Mr. Brown is treasurer of the Booksellers' Provident Institution ; and has ever reprded the Booksellers' retreat as being under his especial protection. Perhaps nothing has tended more to raise the house to its present position than the plan adopted by the principals of introducing fresh blood from time to time—a plan which was carried out by the introduction of Mr. Rees, Mr. Orme, Mr. Brown, and in 1824, when Mr. Bevis E. Green, who had been apprenticed to Mr. Hurst in 1807, became a partner. This gentleman, who has had charge of the country department for may years, is the only remaining partner of the old firm of Longman , Hurst, Rees, Orme, Brown, and Green. Mr. T. N. Longman paid the debt of nature at his house at Hampstead, Aug. 28, 1842, in his 72d year. He married Miss Slater, of Horsham, and by her had a numerous family ; the personal property was sworn under £200,000. His son, Mr. Thomas Longman, entered as partner in 1832. William, another son, of considerable literary abilities, became partner in 1839, and more recently, Mr. Roberts, another gentleman who was appren ticed in the house in 1826, and who for many years represented it in the country, was in 1856 received into partnership. The firm now trade under the name of Longman, Green, Longman, and Roberts. —Bookseller. WILLS AND BEQUESTS.

Salamanca, the Spanish operator on the Paris Bourse, for constructing lines to Oporto and Badajos. The well-wishers of Portugal in England, and those most conversant with her true inte rests, regard this as a virtual handing over of the railways and communications of that portion of the Peninsula to Spanish and French influence. Under such circumstances, British capitalists, so many of whom have already a deep stake in the financial welfare of Portugal, will naturally be most charry in contributing pecuniary aid towards the transfer of our old ally, connected with us as she is by various ties, into a cat's-paw by her ancient enemies. In deed, it matter of serious doubt whether Portugal can reasonably hope to meet so large an outlay as is now pro posed in so short a time, the conviction of those most farni far with her resources and most skilled in the observance of railway developments in other countries somewhat simi larly circumstanced being that it would' be prudent gra dually to introduce the most needed lines only, in places where there is a primary requirement for them, the ground being previously selected by the most competent engineers, and the works carried out by thoroughly experienced con tractors, on economic, but sufficient, estimates. REPAVEMENT OF A PORTION OF GRESHAM STREET, ClTY.—This important thoroughfare, from Loth bury to King-street, has been relaid and fitted with new Guernsey granite channel stones. It is expected that the public will have access to the carriage-way this day or to morrow (Tuesday). DARING ATTEMPT TO ROB A MAIL.

Their appearance and manners at once excited him attention, and he determined to be prepared for them. As he neared them, he observed that they had divided, and so placed themselves that two would be on one side of him and one on the other ; and he also observed that one of the two took a position a little in advance of his com panions, and that they all three were preparing for simultaneous action. The driver carried a heavily-loaded whip, and twisted the thong of it tightly round his left arm, for he was left-handed. This latter circumstance, no doubt, greatly favoured the necessity of his defence ; for,,as the foremost fellow made a spring at his right arm, he dealt him a heavy blow on the forehead with the loaded end of his whip. The blow was so well aimed that the robber reeled and fell before his companions mulct succeed in their attempt to grasp the horse's head. The driver urged on his horse, and the animal sprang forward and broke from the fellows, the shaft knocking one of them over.
