There was Tory little business doing in wheat in the ]siding country markets held on Saturday, and prices were rather in favanr of buyers. Fine barley appears to be very scarce in most quarters. The value of that article, therefore, continues very firm. In other kinds of spring corn, including flour, only a limited business was trans - acted. BIRTH OF it, TRENCH PRINCE. 94 - 96 94 - A. Special Court c t the members of the Common Council was held this n lorning at the Guildhall, "to consider the proprietr ..of passing a resolution of con gratulation to their Lull serial Majesties' the Emperor and Empress of the Tie, cb, upon the auspicious occa sion of the birth of ars Imperial Prince." The Lord Mayor in the chair. Ti 'ere was a very full attendance of the members of the (to' art. 11 - 13 4k :. ii Most of the continental markets continue dull for wheat and other produce. Holders, however, are tolerably firm. Our New York advises bring very little change in prices. The arrivals of English grain lip to our market, last week, were limited. From abroad we received 7,783 qrs. of wheat, 40 barley, 16,832 oats, 24 beans, 357 tares, 2,882 linseed, 2,564 rapeseed, 10 sundry seeds, 150 sacks and 10,563 barrels of flour. Fresh up to day a ♦ery moderate supply of English wheat came to hand, coastwise and by land carriage. The show of samples of both red and white was therefore limited, though their quality was good. Owing to the holidays the attendance of both town and country millers was small, consequently the demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce ruled heavy, and where sales took place prices ruled from 4s to 5s per quarter lower than on Mon day last. With foreign wheat we were but moderately supplied. The finest qualities were held somewhat firmly, at full quotations ; but the business doing in all kinds was very limited, at barely stationary prices. Floating cargoes of grain were less active. Fine barley was very scarce, and quite as dear as last week. Inferior kinds moved off slowly, at late rates. Malt was tolerably steady, at the late improvemext in value. ... "". • • ... .... es 6 The LORD MAYOR at di 1, he felt certain no apology was needed for his them together that day, rela tive to the birth of a P 'rench prince, especially when they considered the cl bt le amity that existed between France and England, at td ' recollected the auspicious visit of their Imperial Majes tit is to this city. Hr. Deputy LOTT, in moving a resolution in accord ance with the purposes o f the meeting, briefly alluded to their Imperial Majesties? visit to this country, and re marked that the health .)1 the Prince was most auspicious being on the eve of heat e which all so ardently desired. He concluded by movin j the adoption of the resolution. 103 - 1:65 - 13 23; -24 i 107 - 112 2i - 2i 92 93 P in 55 132 --- iii 7f 7i_ 3f --2td, There was a fair show of oats, chiefly foreign. On the whole, the demand was steady, at last week's quotations. •We had a fair demand for beans , at lato rates. The sup ply was moderate. Peas changed hauels slowly, yet prices were supported. We had a dull sale for flour, and country marks were ra ther easier to purchase, the fall being fully 2s. per sack. 32 -- 73 T SHAR gb. 114 - 117 112 - 116 8 1 .: 86 CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE Wheat—Essex ro Kent, Red .... new 61s to 75: Ditto.. • • .... old —s - h Ditto, White new 61s 7Ss Ditt0........ old —3 —s Norfolk and.

The supply of Irish stock was only 68 beasts and 120 pigs, via Liverpool. From our own grazing districts the arrivals of beasts fresh up this morning were considerably on the decrease, and mostly of very middling quality. For all breeds we had a brisk demand, at an advance in the quotations realized on Monday last of from 2d to 41 per 81b, and a clearance was effected. The best Scots sold readily a t 41 103 per Sibs. The arrivals of beasts from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire were 1,800 Scots and short horns ; from other parts of England 300 of various breads ; and from Scotland 30J horned and polled Scots. With sheep we were very moderately supplied, and their condition was by no means first rate. The mutton trade was rather active at fully 2d per Bibs above the currencies realized on this day se'nnight. The best old Downs, in the wool, changed hands at 5s 2d, out of the wool 4s 6d per 81bs. There were very few lambs on sale, yet the inquiry for all breeds was heavy at 4d to 6,1 per Blbs beneath Friday's currency. Very few lambs made more than Ti 61 per Sibs. The supply of calTes was short, and the real trade ruled steady, at full quotations. The top figure was 6s per Sibs. Pigs were in moderate supply, and sluggish zequest, at barely stationary. prices. The market will be held on Friday next as usual. Per Sibs to sink the offals. s. d. s. d. I s. d. s. d.

Leng-woolled English fleeces have ruled somewhat briskly, partly for shipment to the Continent, short wools are steady, but not dearer. The supply in the market is limited. Foreign and Colonial wools are held for more money, and the market fox them is very firm. Last week's imports were 97 bales from Genoa, 24 from Hambro', 12 from Havre, 21 from Copenhagen, and 1,074 from Sydney. The following are the current rates of English wool : Down tego, is 3d to le 4d ; do. ewes, is 2d to ls 31d ; half bred hoggets, is 241 to is 3d ; do. wailers, is id to is 2d ; Kent fleeces, mired hog and ewes, 1 s 2d to is 3,1 d ; combing skin, is to is 3d ; flannel wool, is to ls . 3d ; blanket wool, 10d to is ld per lb.

Metropolitan and proxiacial turfites will enjoy their Easter week after their o wn peculiar fashion, and the sport which is provided for them at Catterick Bridge, Coventry, and Northam p ton, will enable them to in dulge their inclination to ..the top of their bent. Northern sportsmen only are lit ely to assist at the Catterick gathering, the racing not ;being of sufficient importance to excite general interes t. People, however, have no 'objection to be "sent to Coventry" for two days, be cause they can take the oi ty of Peeping Tom, en route to Northampton. At the 'fa at-mentioned town, however, will be celebrated the mee ting of the week, and accord ing to the advices which I have this morning received, a lire and busy gathering: may be calculated upon with certainty.'_ ; The Subscription Room, at the George Ho el; Willbe opened as usual, Fuller Andrews boldly undertaking to pievide the requisite accommodation at his Own risk and expens s. I trust the patronage which he seeks and deserves w ill not be withheld from him. The character of the e.ppointed sport has been already rendered familiar to the reader. I shall not, therefore, unnecessarily occupy sipace by expatiating ou the "features" presented by the programme. Although three nocnin at ions only are appended to the Trial Stakes, and although the probabilities are that the race will be reduced to a match between Tame Deer and Fisherman, the encounter is likely to be marked by pe culiar interest on account of the running of the above named horses at Lincoln ; where, it will be remembered, Tame Deer beat Fisherman at equal weights ; the former will, however, ao w meet Fisherman on 9 lbs. better terms, Mr. Parr's horse hay ing extra weight to carry to exempt him from being claimed for 6001. Fisherman was many pounds better at Warwick than when he ran at Lincoln, and I shall expect him, should he "perform" on Wednesday, to prove that his running with Tame Deer in February was "all a mistake." The support which Coal Black Rose has received for the Earl Spencer's Plate warrants the belief that she will not go for the Stand Plate, but that she will be entirely reserved for the " event" on Thursday. In her absence, therefore, I shall expect to see the Rajah, Com modore Charley, and The Flying Duchess occupy the most prominent places in the race for the Stand Plate. Could I calculate with certainty upon a start I should be inclined to "stand" Merlin and Amorous Boy for the Whittlebury Stakes. A man need indeed, however, be possessed of second sight to indicate the winner of such a race. The unlucky little King of Trumps heads the list of acceptances for the Nene Stakes. Still the character of kris probable ohonents seems so insignificant, that he will, doubtless, have little difficulty in pulling through. His most formidable competitors will perhaps be Master Slender and Noisette. I shall expect Queen's Head to beat Stork for the Racing Stakes. The betting on THE NOR,THAMPTONSIIIM STASES has not been characterised by particular briskness. Still the race is nob likely to bei &void of interest. Wiokfield has been steadily supported, and I deem him worthy of the trust reposed in him. In Little Davie, however, he will meet a most dangerous opponent. The running of this horse at Liverpool and Warwick is most satis factory ; and, although the course is somewhat too severe, yet with his comparatively light weight he will doubtless be enabled to "get home" with the foremost flight of competitors. Of Flatterer I, at present, enter tain no expectations. He, however, seems to me to be every inch a race-horse, and when not out of his distance, and when really backed by his party, he will be a dangerous animal to stand against. Paletot will, perhaps, ruu forward, but I doubt his ability to concede Sibs. to Basik a. In Puck's pre tensions I ha,ve no faith. The most formidable three years-old is, in my opinion, Smack, but whether this horse is really intended I am at present unable to deter mine. By the way, I had almost passed over Speed the-Plough, who is certainly entitled to notice, albeit the course will be too trying for him. The animals which I aa.i induced to select against the geld are WINKFIELD, LITTLE DAVIE, and SMACK, my preference being indicated by the order in which I have set down their names. _ The interest which attaches to Earl Spencer's Plate is deeper than that excited by the Stakes. A most ex citing race is likely to be occasioned. To select the actual winner is a task too difficult to be attempted. Cal. culating, however, upon a start, I shall take Flacrow and La Victims to represent my interest. Rohallion is said to be a "good thing" far the Al- thorp Park Stakes ; but I am disinclined to express a definite opinion on the comparative chances of " dark" horses. Fur the " Cup" my fancy points to Homily. Titormous and Prince's Mixture are the most entitled to notice for the Delapre Handicap. The respective partisans of Fly-by-Night and - Yellow Jack seem determined to sustain Vaeir opposing interest with spirit. At the Victoria Club on Saturday night renewed hostility set in against Fly-by-Night, who, it was jocosely remarked, had ob• tained the real carrot at last. 100 to 40 was laid three times against him, and at 2 to 1 backers► might have been accommodated to any amount. The last mentioned odds would have been taken about Yellow Jack. La Tic time was in much demand for the Chester Cup at 1,000 to 15 and 1,000 to 20, whilst a reported " break down" caused Ariosto to be " knocked out" of the betting for the City and Suburban Handicap. Some important movements relative to coming events may be made at Northampton, where backers of horses are likely to be assembled in large numbeis. I shall be " arnang them taking notes," and should any important demonstration be made, why " faith I'll Arent it." March 24. A FRESH MAN. MOVEMENTS IN THE CITY. 2 o'cLocx P.M. Flatterer has this morning again received powerful support for the Northamptonshire Stakes, and is almost as good favourite R 3 anything. Whether th 3 "demons tration" was genuine or not I will not attempt to deter mine. If Flatterer is really meant, ho will be a formi dable opponent. Ariosto has too, received considerable support, and the rumour about his " break-down" is said to be "all bosh." I, however, have no faith in "bottled up" horses. The opinions which I have given above I am disinclined to alter. A FRESH MAN. LATEST CITY BETTING.—SATURDAY.

THE 02E111. —Strange it is that no application what ever has been made to the lessee of the Theatre Royal Drury-lave by Mr. Gye, for the use of that national theatre for this season. It is stated that Mr. Gye ob jected on account of the number of renters who have free admission. This cannot be the cage, for, by an in spection of the renters' free admission book, it will be seen that few gentlemen have availed thems elves of the privilege, during the late prosperous season and pro tracted run of the pantomime at that theatre. —Sunday Tieze,s.
