LATEST N E WS. MARSEILLES, SIINDAT. The Carmel has arrived, having the Duke of Newcastle on board ; his Grace was received by the Sultan before his departure. She left Con- stantinople on the 22d. The German Legion had been decimated by the cholera, but having shifted its encampment the epidimic ceased. Since the sanguinary conflict which took place at Constantinople, the inhabitants of the city go out armed. Crimes of violence have much de- c reaped. The explosion of the 15th of November was caused by the firing of 25 barrels of powder. The park called " the Windmill" exploded afterwards. It was at first taken for an earthquake by those at a distance. The losses amount to 250 men killed and wounded. The first cause of the mis chief is not ascertained. At the date of the departure of the mail, th Russians had'redoubled their fire from the north side. The greatest possible security exists in the va rious camps of the Allies. The amount of pro- visions and stores of every description is immense, and the camping and hutting have been organised in the most perfect manner. The Russians are fortifying Nicolaieff, as we as the embouchure of the Bug. Twelve thousand Turks have sailed to Kertc to reinforce General Vivian. Omer Pacha is rumoured to have suspended his march upon Kutais, awaiting the arrival of a con Toy of money for the payment of his army. Two millions and a half of francs have been sent to him from Constantinople on the 21st of November. The news of the reduction of Kars was circulated by the Greeks in Constantinople, but is not confirmed by the journals. Vassif Pacha has set out to carry decorations to the gar rison of Kars, in reward of their glorious defence in the assault of the 29th of September. Mr. Maogregor, the Director of Hospitals to the German Legion, has died of cholera. The Motebello has arrived at Toulon. FRANCE. PARIS, SUNDAY. Lord and Lady Lyndhurst, with the Hon. Miss Copley, their daughter, were received on Saturday by the Emperor. The Moniteur gives numerous promotions in the navy, army, and Legion of lionour. DENMARK The Moniteur of yesterday (Sunday) publishes the following, under date of Copenhagen, Novem ber. 27: " General Canrobert was received yesterday at four o'clock in a private audience by his Majesty the King of Denmark. " The General was taken to the Palace in one of the court carriages, in which was M. de Moltke, aide-de-camp of his Majesty. More than 200 per sons assembled in the court of the hotel, and cheered him as he entered the royal carriage. The audience lasted for half an hour. "After the audience Count de Bondy, Secretary Imperial Legation, and Baron Duperre, comman der of the Pelican, were presented to his Majesty by Dotezar, the French Minister. "At five o'clock the corps diplomatique (with the exception of the Russian Chargé d'Affaires), the members of the Cabinet, the high dignitaries of the Crown, the commanders of the army and navy, and the most eminent functionaries wqra invited to a banquet given in honour of the General. General Canrobert sat next to the King. " In the middle of the repaselhe King, who wore the insignia of the Legion of 'Honour, pro posed the health of his Majesty the Emperor, and at the same time the music struck up the national air Partant pour la Sy,ria." " In the evening ,the General attended a ball given by the Laudgrave William, in honour of the birth of his son. M. Dotezar presented the Am bassador Extraordinary of the Emperor to the Royal family, all the members of which received him most graciously. " To-day General Canrobert visits the military establishments of the capital, accompanied by the Minister of War. His Majesty has, it is said, sig nified his intention of doing the honours of the Ar senal. The General, after an audience of the Queen Dowager, will, it is said, attend, with the members of the French Legation, a dinner given to his Honour by the heir apparent, and will after wards pass the evening at Prince Christian's of Denmark." PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Nov. 29.—T0-day being appointed for the opening of the two Chambers here, the King opened them in person in the White. Salton of the Palace. Before eleven o'clock, the time appointed for the ceremony of opening by the King, the two galleries of the White S,tloon of the Palace were filled, the one by the numerously represented corps diplomatique, and the other with the wives or families of the members of the two houses and a numerous attendance of everybody of note or eminence. A few minutes after 11 o'clock the King entered the saloon, the President of the Council having just previously left the Assembly as though to fetch him. The Ministers w..re already stationed in a line to the left of the Throne ; the Princes and Adjutants who followed in his Majesty's suite occupied the chairs (or rather stood iu front of them) to the right of it. The King en tered the saloon in full general's uniform, and car rying his helmet in his hand, which he waved to and fro in acknowledgment of the " Es lebe der Konig hod!, !" which was given in a poor imitation of our three times three. After mounting the throne, the King received the written speech at the hands of the President of the Council, Baron von Manteuf fel, and read it in a distinct but somewhat thin voice, after having first put his helmet on his head. It was perhaps owing to the presence on this occa sion "of men who have themselves formerly been Sovereign Princes and of others wh ose f a th ers were so that the King to-day did not first seat him self on his throne before commencing to read his speech, and evidently it was in reference to those gentlemen that the speech itself, instead of com mencing with " Gentlemen," began as follows— " Illustrious, noble, and dear Sirs of the two Houses of the Diet." REFORMATORY SCHOOLS. • -- We understand that the Roman Catholics of London and of the central districts are at length beginning to take up the movement already eo widely spread on be half of these excellent institutions. A large house ad joining the Training College at Brook -green, Hamm er . smith, has been taken by Lord Edward Howard, the Rey. Dr. Manning, and other private individuals, and is now being adapted to the reception of some twenty-four inmates, who of course will be mostly poor.lrish Roman Catholics. The management of this Reformatory School will be in the hands of the "Brothers of Charity," who direct all these institutions in Belgium, four of whose members, including one English brother, have recently arrived in England for this especial purpose. The order of the " Brothers of Charity" is of recent date, having been founded in 1835 by the Rev. Dr. Scheffers, one of the canons of Malines. This Reformatory School will be at once commenced, as soon as the Inspector of Pri sons has certified it in his report. Another institution of a similar kind is about to be estahlisbel in connection with the monastery of Mount St. Bernard, which was founded in 1840 by the late Lord Shrewsbury, in Cbarn wood Forest, Leicestershire. It appears that this step is the result of a suggestion from the late vicar-general of the order, who established a reformatory school with the assistance of the Emperor Louis Napoleon, about two years ago, at La Grande Trappe, on Mount St. Bernard, in the Alp 4. The reformat,ry will he worked under the care of the abbot of. Mount St. Bernard not, how.vPr, by the choir or lay monks, but by " brothers of the third order of St. Benedict," who will have a special code of regulations drawn up for their use. Ore of the fathers of the abbey will have the immediate superintendence of the institution, which is to be commenced immediately at the Abbey Grange, distant about half a mile from the pre sent monastery. The boys will be partially employed with the monks in silent labour on the adjoining bleak a 1 .1 Larr e! o l il nrri Tworn , nent in.poef.,r •in v r .: re h Ave pronounced t'uerv..,loituaL6ry in.LiLute of La Taappe one of the best in that country, and second only to the I one established at Muttray. _ Tri S (IN. LONDON, MONDAY EVEN AND CO M. INTELLIGENCE. The accounts from New York state that the up ward movement in the Stock Market continued. The prevailing buoyancy was not caused by any financial or political change, but merely resulted from the speculation for an advance, and a reaction was soon expected. Owing to the limited export of specie, and the large arrival of that article from California, the amount held by the banks bad, for the last month, steadily increased. During the week ending Nov. 16th, the excess of the exports over the imports was 518,509 dollars. The ship ments of merchandise consisted principally of wheat and flour to France and England. On the Paris Bourse the first operations of the present month opened at a decline on the closing quotations of the last. The 3 per cent. Rentes fell during Saturday 40 centimes for the account, and 50c. for money. The 4i Stock rose 25e. for the account, and remained without variation for money. In the Share Market there was little change, excepting in shares of the Credit Mobilier, which exceeded 12fr. 50e., in consequence of the downward movement in the Rentes. The price of bread in Paris has been fixed by the Government for the month of December at 50 centimes per kilogramme for the first quality, and 42c. the kilo. for second quality. Some interesting intelligence from Spain has just reached us, to the effect that operations on a large scale will shortly be commenced for the purpose of exploring the mountains of the Sierra Nevada, to discover its mineral riches, with a view to their development. Au English engineer who visited this region lately, and who represented a company of capitalists connected with London, Paris, and Madrid, gave a very favourable report of what he saw and thought of the existence of such mineral deposits. From Berlin we learn that the recent decree which disallows the drawback on spirits for ex portation has caused them to fall in price, and influenced the price of grain unfavourably. Accounts from Algeria contain a report on the production of tobacco in that province, during the month of September, up to the time of the French Government passing a decree limiting the export of tobacco to the parent state. The value of that grown by the colonists amounted to 621,790 francs, and by the Arabs, 103,628 fr., and the average of ficial price was 93 fr. 90 c. the ten kilogrammes. The quantity sold during the year was 4i millions kilogrammes, and exceeded the demand for home consumption and export, so that stocks on hand are heavy ; and in the face of the late protective decree will be still more so in the ensuing year. It is considered a grave error of the Govern ment thus to circumscribe the export of this ar ticle of consumption to the present state, as there are many Arab tobacco growers who suffer thereby. The quality of the tobacco produced is likewise superior to the generality of tobacco consumed in France, and though not equal to Havannah, Ken tucky, or Maryland produce, is nevertheless pro.. nounced to be amongst the best continental-grown tobacco. The wheat trade is steady to-day, at fully last Monday's prices. The English Stock Market presents a quiet ap pearance, as speculative business is more contracted and money purchases are less numerous. Prepara tions, however, are in progress for the adjustment of the account on the 6th instant, and there is consequently a disinclination to enter into fresh engagements for the present. The " contang• " has rather increased, being now about per cent. Consols have been 89 and are now about 89g both for money and account. For January the quotation is 90 to The New Three per Cents. have been 881 to 89k, and the Reduced 88k Bank Stock is 209 k. Exchequer Bills are 7s. to 4s. discount. India Stock rules steady at 226. There is rather more activity in the Foreign Steck Market, and prices show an upward tendency. Turkish 6 per Cents, early in the day advanced to 844 and Bt, then became rather heavy, but have since again recovered, being 811 to 841. The New Scrip is flat at 3k to 3 discount. Spanish 3 per Cents, are 39a, and for account they are marked 40. The New Deferred ruled steady at 20i, and Passive at 61 to 64. Mexican Stock remains at 194, and bargains have been recorded in Bra zilian Small Bonds at 994, the New 4i per Cents. at 92 (ex div.), Peruvian 4i per Cents. at 744 to 75, and the 3 per Cents, at 53k. Railway Shares are without any general change of importance, but the Eastern Counties are a shade firmer. The North-Western and Midland are each ss. better than on Saturday. Paris and Lyons have improved ss. to 103., but the other foreign lines are mostly the same as previously. Great Western of Canada Shares are firmer. Mining and Banking Shares are quiet, and the latter are in some cases somewhat heavy. Crystal Palace are steady, and also the Royal Mail Steam. BRITISH FUNDS THIS DAY.-CLOSING PRICES.

The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed q'iietly but with steadiness, and compared with Fri day'sprices all descriptions were unchanged in value. The sales were 6,000 bales, 500 for export and a like amount on speculation, comprising in addi tion to American, 500 Pernarn and Maranham at Sad. to 6ad. per lb., 12013a!lia at 6c1., 70 Egyptian at s&d. to 61d., and 1,000 Surat at 3id. to 4.0. per lb. The Railway Share Market was rather quiet, and prices were rather Lowe, . The intelligence from Jamaica, by the West India packet, mentions that several petitions had been presented in the House of Assembly, praying for a reduction in the taxation, which pressed so heavily on plaxters and merchants, as well as the labouring classes. The commercial intelligence is generally unimportant. From the other Islands there are some item of interest. The financial condition of Grenada was attracting chiefly attention where an outcry had been raised against the asserted excessive expendi ture. In Trinidad, endeavours were being made to improve the sanitary condition of the colony. In Antigua the supply of labour was insufficient, and an attempt would be mad© to promote immi gration.

MARKET ;NEWS.—(This Day). ___~_. _ 40 4 Zr • °TV CORN EXCFrANC E. The business doing in wheat in most of the country markets, held on Saturday, was small, yet prices were de cidedly firmer than in the early part of the week. Barley and most other kinds of spring corn, including flour, moved off slowly, and prices were barely supported. In the near Continental ports very little business hal been trans-,cted in grain on Englit,b account. From 11 America we learn that large quantities of grain and flour NS e re in progress of shipment. Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English grain were but moderate. From abroad the imports were 2,695 quarters of wheat, 185 barley, 20,341 oats, 130 beans, 1,655 pea', 735 tares, 1,057 linseed, 3,353 rapeseed, 15 mustard seed, 856 sundry seeds, 400 sacks, and 10,117 barrels of flour. The supply of English wheat received fresh up to our x d market to-day, coastwise and by land carriage, was mode rate, but the general quality of the samples exhibited an improvement over Monday last. For all kinds we expe rienced a firm demand, at vices fully equal to those realised on Monday last. With foreign wheat W 3 were - rather scantily supplied. Although the amount of badness doing in all kinds was limited, importers were firm, and prices were supported. Fine barley sold briskly, and, in some instances, the d quotations were the turn higher. All other qualities were quite as dear as last week. Malt, the supply of which was moderate, moved off steadily, at full quotations. The supply of foreign oats was good—of other kinds li mited selected samples changed hands steadily at full prices; but low and inferior samples were a slow inquiry. With beans we were scantily supplied. The demand. however, was by no means active on former terms. The sale for peas was steady on former terms. There was a fair sale for flour at full quotations. Flosting cargoes of grain sold to a fair extent on former terms. LIEUTENANTS. C. F. Smith, to the Conqueror. E. E. Richards, to the Conqueror. L, Geneste, to the Victory. MASTER.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff to recover damages of the defendant for criminal conversation with his wife. The Atterney General, Mr. Collin, Q.C., and Mr. Hawkins appeared for the plaintiff; Sir F. Thesiger, Mr. Slade, Q.C., end Mr. Kerslake, fir the defendant. The Attorney-General, in stating the case, said the plaintiff brought this action not so much for the purpose of obtaining damages as to enable him to obtain a final separation by divorce. In this case the plaintiff and his wife had not lived happily together, both possessing irritable tempers, and the consequence had been a sepa ration. A. reconciliation afterwards took place, which ended in another separation. He should be able to show them, although the parties were separated, that the wife possessed some affection for her husband up to the time of her acquaintance with the defendant, when thatlove and affection became obliterated. The plaintiff's wife was a Miss Polking, born a lady, of much beauty and personal attractions, and was a widow when mar ried to the plaintiff. Her first husband was Captain Murray, son of Lieut.• General Murray, who was killed in action. The defendant was a gentleman of some dis tinction, residing at Mount Boone, near Dartmouth, and was a married man, with a family. At the time of the intimacy complained of the defendant was at Ply mouth, attending to his duties as an officer of militia, and the plaintiff's wife was residing at Plympton, about , two miles from Plymouth. The learned gentleman, having detailed the circumstances he should lay before them, called the following evidence : Mr. John Williams deposed he resided near Clod leigh. The plaintiff was a respectable gentleman. In 1851 he married Mrs. Murray. Plaintiff is about 20 years of age. His wife was the widow of Captain Mur ray, son of General Murray, and was a lady of much beauty. The plaintiff was 22 years of age when he mar ried. They lived happily together for some time. After that they disagreed about trifles, and he was appealed to. The wife left her husband for a day or two, and then returned. He was appealed to on one occasion to interfere. ico separation took place, nor was any deed suggested to be drawn up. He thought they would continue to live together. Cross-examined—He was not present at the marriage. He thought there was a quickness of temper between them. /n February following, in consequence of a mis understanding between them, he was called in. He did not know if it was in consequence of Mr. Hawker's violence she had been obliged to escape from him. Thi was in February ; he was called in also in December She did not then complain of violence. The plaintiff was articled to Messrs. Lockyer and Bulteel. Mr. George Herbard Gyton proved the registry of marriage of the party and his wife, at St. Mary's Church, Marylebc‘ne, on oth January, 1851. Mr. Francis Bulteel, solicitor, of Plymouth, reativs of the plaintiff, proved the handwritings in the registry were those of the plaintiff and his wife. They lived hap pily until 1854, when the plaintiff and his wife were separated in consequence of rumours. He suggested to the plaintiff a deed of separation, which lie strongly ob• jected to. (A letter from the plaintiff's wife, dated 7th March, after their separation, was put in and read. It spoke of her affection for him, and entreated him to live with her again.) The plaintiff amused himself with shooting, fox-hunting, and other hunting. He resided with his mother about two miles from Borrington Villas, where his wife resided since her separation. Roger Jervis, landlord of the Barrington Arms, near the Villas, deposed he was acquainted with Mrs. Haw ker by sight. She came to live there in March 1854. His house commanded a view of the one occupied by Mrs. Hawker. He knew Sir H. Seale ; he used to put his horse up at witness's house and then go to Mrs. Hawker's house ; he might have done so seven or eight times ; the first time he knew the defendant was when he saw him at Lord :11Iorley's at a dinner, when he acted as waiter there. He saw the defendant on one occasion leave Mrs. Hawker's house about G o'clock in the morning ; when he put his horse up he used to come for it about 12 o'clock ; on one occasion the horse remained all night and till 11 or 12 o'clock the next day ; the defendant came for it; his house was about 20 yards from the railway station ; on the occasion of the defendant's visits Mrs. Hawker's servant generally came for a bottle of wine ; she has done so at other times ; once the defendant told witness that he was going to dine with Mrs. Hawker, and if he was not back by a:certain time his horse was to be bedded up for the night. The horse was bedded up, and the defendant came for it the fol lowing morning. These visits spread over about six or seven weeks. Cross - examined—Mrs.Hawker came to live at Borring ton-villas in March, 1854, and remained there about 12 months. He recollected General Murray's son and an officer who kept cempany with Miss Polkingham, who resided with Mrs. Hawker, being on a visit there. Both the gentlemen slept at his house. About five or six months since a detective policeman, whose name he forgot, came to his house and made inquiries. A month ince Mr. Lockyer, the plaintiff's solicitor, came to him, These were the only persons who had made inquiries of Henry Pugh, porter at Piympton station, deposed seeing the defendant in the summer, jss4, arrive by the train and go to Mrs. Hawker's residence. He some times came by the 9 o'clock train. He bad never seen him go back by the train. He bad carried a portmanteau and othe r things for the defendant from the station to Borrington Villas. He arrived by the 9 o'clock a.m. train when he carried the portmanteau. He saw the defendant and Mrs. Hawker in Woodaford•lane ; th ey were talking together and smoking. (Laughter.) Both were smoking. (Renewed laughter.) Cross-examined —That was about four or fire o'clock in the afternoon ; there was the same entrance gate for the two villas. Re-examined —Mr. N orri ngton, an indep en d ent gen tleman, resided at the other house. He always took the things for Sir H. Seale ; it was at Mrs. H awker ' s. Elizabeth Spurling, in October, 1854, lived at No. 6, West Hoe-terrace, Plymouth, and let lodgings. She s (wit in the e ar l y part of October, ness) new Mrs. Her ; 1 854, k she took the w khouse, he was accompanied by 3lissPolkington, her sister, who remained about a week. she continued to occupy the house until March of this year. On the ground-floor was a dining-room and a drawing-room ;on the first floor Mrs. Hawker's bed room, an upper drawing-room, and what we called Sir Henry's dressing-room. There was a passage between the upper drawing-room and the bed-room ; the dress ing room adjoined the drawing-room. Witness occupied the attics. The dressing-room door was about seven fee l ! from Mrs. H aw k er ' s bed -room door. The second fir. o was occupied b y S arah Peen, Mrs. Hawker's 'rant, who wa i ted upon her mistress the knew the he er whole time Mrs. H aw k er resided there. Witness Hawker'a defend an t w h o w h o called the first day °f h 3 e lr irst came she rival at W es t H oe Terrace. e i m V W hen Would call on her in n said in all p ro b a bility a gentlem an iddle-aged gentl eman . the afternoon, he would be a ra our/ Witness was to show him into the drawing-room. Sir r 1* 11' I H. Seale was a middle -Reed A Y'eg:4 (e•e.e:e re 4 4 * , man. When the gen - tleman called he aseed if Mee. Hawker had Sr. rived. Mrs. Hawker was in her bed-rosin at the time ; witness showed him into the lower room. Mrs. Hawker met bins on the stairs. She said, "Do come up, and see what beautiful apartments I hare." He went 111 D stairs. He remained in the house till ten or hair-pent i s the evening. He arrived about four o'clock. Sir Henry callal almost every day. The dressing-room was kept locked cn the passage side, and my servant was forbidden to go into it. There was a door that communicated with the upper drawing -room and dressingroom. She did not know if Sir Henry's clothes were kept there. Ske had seen a cabinet box in the room with Sir Henry's name on it. Sir Henry dined almost daily with Mrs. Hawker, and remained until 10 o'clock, and sometimes 11 and past 12 o'clock at night. They used to dine in the dining-room. She had seen Sir Henry on the landing at Mrs Hawker's bed room door, and in the bed-room she had seen him several times, and had heard him in the bed-room when she had not seen him, the bed-room door being shut. She had seen him in the bed-room mornings and evenings after the door of the house had been closed. Witness went into the lower drawing-room where she saw the defendant lying ()tithe sofa asleep. Mrs. Hawker had gone up to her bed-room. On one occasion she saw Mrs. Hawker and the defendant quarrel. She or. dered dinner and went out, leaving Dr. Ring in the house, and did not return until nine or ten o'clook in the evening. Sir Henry also went away, and returned between six and seven o'clock. Seven o'clock AV ELS the usual dinner hour. Mrs. Hawker had not returned, and he waited dinner for some time, and then left. Mrs. Hawker's servant had also left the house, returned, and left again. When Mrs. Hawker. returned, Sarah Keen had not returned. She afterwards came in and was sent out, when she and Sir Henry came back together. A fly came up to the door, and she believed it brought him. He remained that evening about an hour. Witness had seen Sir Henry leave the house one morning between nine and ten o'clock. He bad been at the house the previous evening so late as eleven cr twelve o'clock, in the lower drawing-room with Mrs. Hawker. He went away in a fly. Sir Henry was in the habit of bringing and send-, ing sundry parcels, hampers, game, and suchlike. She bad seen a small portmanteau brought. Other hampers frequently came to the house. Sarah Been used to take up the breakfast, but witness had seen frequently two cups and saucers on the tray, with an abundance of eat. ables. (Laughter.) Sometimes she took but one up, and then came down and say her lady wanted another. The blinds of the Louse were always kept down—from morning till night—the same when Sir Henry was there or not. Sometimes when Sir Henry was not there, the drawing-room blind was drawn up a little. When Sir Henry has called at the house he has been told Mrs. Hawker was in her bedroom. He said, Oh, I'll go up to her, and had gone up and knocked at the door and gone in. Cross -examined—Witness had no:employment, a n d since she had left Plymouth she had been residing at Plumstead, near Woolwich, for amusement. She had spoken_ to her own servant about what had occurred be. tween Mrs. Hawker and Sir Henry. It was natural she should ; the house was taken at 31. 10e. per week. Had anything been unpleasant, Mrs. Hawker could have been got rid of. Sir Henry came before Mr. Hawker, and saw the lodgings. The South Devon Militia, she believed, was quartered the whole of the time at Plymouth and Mount Wise. Sir Henry dined and had luncheon almost every day. It was rather extraordinary, but she had let the house, and was paid her rent. It occurred to her something was going on im proper, but she did not know Sir Henry was a married man. She generally remained up until after Mrs. Hawker retired to see all was right. Witness answered the door occasionally, but Mrs. Hawker wished her own servant to do it. She could not say if the name, Sir Henry's dressing-room, was given to it before she knew his name. Mrs. Hawker called it so. She did not go into the room from cariosity. She did not listen at the door, nor put her ear or eye at the key-hole. Wit. noes heard him in Mrs. Hawker's room several times when she had been going to her bed-room at 11, half-past 11, and 12 o'clock at night. Shenever troubled herself to see who went in and out of the house. She did not concern herself much about what was going on, and she thought Sir Henry was a widower, and did not consider there was so much harm in it as if he had been a married man. (Laughter.) She knew Mrs. Hawker was living es parate from her husband. She never remonstrated with either, nor told Mrs. Hawker to leave the house. Witness and her servant, also residing at Plumstead, went to Plymouth to identify the defendant. At the request of Mr. Bulteel it was arranged a County Court officer, named Ambrose, should take them to Maker for that purpose. The case was not concluded when we went to press. FRENCH AND ENGLISH ALLI ANCR. NAVAL AND MILITARY COMMANDS, It is understood that the late visit of the Duke of Cambridge to Paris was principally in the nature of a military mission. Numerous communications have re cently passed between the two Governments on the subject of the naval and military commands. Our ally urges very fcrcibly the necessity of iistituting an ui divided command of the military forces in the Crimea, and, on the ground of the immense preponderance of the French army, proposes that a distinguished French officer should be appointed generalissimo. The Emperor• on this condition is quite prepared to transfer the French fleets in the Black Sea and the Baltic to the command of British Admirals. Of the practicability of carrying out this delicate proposal, it is premature to pretend to offer any remark ; but it must be said that the honour able spirit in which it is submitted to the British Go.: vernment entitles it to the most serious and favourable consideration.—Morning Achyrtisfy.

We understand that very large supplies, in good saleable condition, will be forwarded to Liverpool this month from Cork and Dublin. Tho show of Irish stock to-day was 1,000 sheep and 400 beasts, all in excellent condition. With foreign stock we were fairly supplied as to number for the time of year. The arrivals of beasts from our own grazing districts were again very moderate, and mostly in middling condi tion. As the attendance of buyers was good, the beef trade ruled steady, at prices fully equal to those realised on Monday last, the best Scots being worth 5s 2d per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton. shire we received 1,700 short-horns; from other parts of England 600 of various breeds ; and from Scotland 100 Scots. There was s decided increase in the supply of sheep com pared with Monday last, and the quality of most breeds exhibited a considerable improvement. The mutton trade was therefore heavy, at a decline iu the quotations of 2d par Blbs. We were very scantily supplied with calves, which sold briskly at an advance in the quotations paid on Friday last of from 6d to 8d per 81b3. The best calves sold at 5s 4d per 81bs. There was only a limited demand for pigs, at last week's quotations. The supply was rather limited. Per Slbs to sink the offal ! . s. d. s. d.! 8 . d . s. d.

Very extensive supplies of country-killed meat have been received up to these markets since Monday last, but those on offer slaughtered in the metropolis ar• ♦ery moderate, the time of year considered. A full average business is doing, as follows : Per Sibs by the carcase. s. d. s. d.

Prime samples move off steadily, at full quotations, but inferior kinds are drill, at barely late rates. Last week's imports were 59 bales from Rotterdam, and 121 from Hambro'. Mid and East Kent pockets, 4/ Os to 61 Os per cwt ; Weald of Kent, 31 103 to 4115 s ; Sussex, 315 s to 4110 x. BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS. Large supplies of potatoes have arrived up to these ruarke Is since Monday last, coastwise and by railway, but their quality has proved inferior. The imports have been trifling, viz., 5 barrels from Hambro', and 40 baskets from Rotter dam. Generally speaking the demand is in a sluggish state, as follows :—York Regents, 933 to llOs ; Scotch do., 80e to 95s ; middings, 6)s to 703; Essex and Kent, 80s to 9rai ; Blues, 80s to 90s; Simms, 70s to 803 per ton. WOOL. Short wools of English growth are in somewhat improved request, at full quotations ; but all other kinds move off heavily, and prices are barely supported. Last week's imports were only 171 bales from Madras, and 35 from Hamburgh. The following are the current rates of English wool : Down togs, is id to is 3d ; half-bred hoggets, is ld to is 2.1 ; do. wet:ler/4 18 Od to is ld ; Kent, fleeces, is ld to is ; combing skin, 10d to is ld ; Down ewes, is ld to Is lei ; Leicester fleeces, lld to is Oid ; flannel wool, is Od to is 2d ; blanket wool, 9d to is Od per lb. SEEDS. Canary and clover seed have moved off briskly, And prices have an upward tendency. Tares are dull, and lower to purchase. There is an active demand for linseed, at enhanced quotations. Cakes command rather snore money.
