By l an d- carr i age the supply has been trifling.. To-day several of Monday's unsold samples were on offer. and the demand I.nr all descriptions of Wheat of home pro. duce was excessively heavy. Where sales took 'place, prices - ruled the turn in favour of the buyers. Upwards of 8,000 quarters of Foreign Wheat have come in, chiefly from the near continental purts. Fine parcels ruled nominally Mt same as on Monday, but the middling and inferior kinds were Is. ,per quarter lower to purchase. Barley—the supply of which was seasonably large —was dull in the extreaat_, and Is per q uarter cheaper. Scarcely a transaction took place in Malt. Good sound Oats were scarce, and hrld at late rates. Damp qualities were quite neglected. Beaus ruled heavy, at late rates. White Peas and Indian Cora were Is per quarter lower. In Flour rent to nothing doing. Several large parcels have come in from France. ARRITAL3 TM'S WEgFr.

The board of guardians was liberal ; medical r,lief was af forded in 829 diarrh(Eacases. A;,,1: he r, l 4l.strar believes although they " were guided by higher and pu-er motives than those of a s rdid and calculating eco nomy, that the recent epidemic has cost them much less than it would have done had they locked their coffers against preventive measures, and confined their attention exclusively to burying the dead, and providing for the dependent survivors." The effects of crowding are shown in North Witchford ; in the sub district of Chtteris the deaths in the quarters, December, 1845-9, were 33, 39, 41, 42, 73 ; in the last quarter the tenements were crowded by labour ers on the river works. sanitary improvements have, it is said, been made at Cambridge.

It also publishes an or.ler from the MhJster of Public Instruction, ili-clarin 4 that dl demands for scientific nils:ions shall henceforth be referred to the Institute and Academy, a committee of which will report on the merits i f the demand. The Assembly on Wednesday passed the Bill authorising the purchase of the racing stud at St. Cloud, for the State, by a majority of 500 to 96. The General commanding at Lyons has ordered all copies of the speech of M. VICTOR Hoco, on Public Instruction, which arrive in the city during the con tinuance of the state of siege, to be seized. The part-pretre find it easier to suppress than to answer the eloquent and convincing speech of the poet• statesman. The responsible editor of the Liberij, M. MOUILLARD, has been condemned to three months' imprisonment and 4,000 f. fine for publishing a seditious libel. The Ordre says :—" Several journals have repeat edly stated that the idea of a parliamentary club, composed of a great number of the members of the majority, who do not belong to the legititnatist party, had been abandoned. We have already corrected this error. The club is constituted ; it is now com posed of 200 members, and the first meeting will pro bably take place on Thursday evening."

[ADvERTHEmENT. J—A 1.1,L (I Leg of a very ean (Tereus nature cured by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—Mrs. Poole, of No. 2, Mermaid-court, Borough, had suffered for a very long psriod with a dreadful sore leg, which baffled the skill of many of the most eminent surgeons in private practice, as well as in the hospitals and dispensaries, under whose treat ment she had been, none of whom, after repeated trials, could effect the least good. The use of Holloway's Ointment and Pills alone has been the means of curing this extraordinary bud leg, to the %wattles and astonishment of all who have seen it, as Mrs. Poole is a person far advanced in years.—Sold by all Druggists and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London, mAttatAGEs. 67,578 persons were married in the quarter which ended on September 30, 1849. It was the time when the cholera was ripe; yet the marriages exceeded in numbers—and even in proportion to the population— the marriages in the corresponding quarters of 1848 and 1847, and in every quarter since the summer of 1838, except the summers of 1839, 1844-5-6. The excess was chiefly in London, Middlesex, Surrey, Norfolk, Herefordshire, Leicestershire, Nottingham shire, *Derbyshire, Cheshire, Lancashire, the West Riding of Yorkshire, and Cumberland. The marriages were stationary or decreased in Kent, Hampshire, Berkshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Suffolk, Devonshire, Corn wall, Somersetshire, Gloucestershire, Shropshire, stageri*re, Warwickshire; Rutlandshire, ,Lincoln shire, thkEaskitiding'of Yorke, Durham, North, Nimbei . lariftt itigi*NesflisofehitAL-44 t i thEr4ow4a and manufacturing aistricts, 'the miiillriages as a general rule increased; in the agricultural, coal, and iron districts they decreased ; but the deviation from the average was on neither side considerable. At Sr. George's Hanover-square, the marri ages were 238, or less than in the same season of 1845-6-7 ; in the Strand, Holborn, St. Luke, Shoreditch, Beth nal-green, Whit ec h a p e l, Bermond sey, and Lam beih districts the marriages exceeded the average. In Brighton the marriages (163) were considerably above the average; in Cheltenham o suffered the marria ges i n th e fi ve sum m e r quartersw.erl i c f lr lB4 5 - 9 were 112, 99, 90, 90, and 99.

The average rate of marriage in the 11 preceding summer quar ters was .747 ; in the summer quarter of 1849 it was •756 per cent. ; somewhat .therefore for the whole country above the average. Winter and summer are the seasons in which the fewest marriages are cele brated in England. BIRTHS. 135,481 births were registered in the quarter which ended on December 31, 1849. The births in the corresponding quarters of 1845 8 were 131,219, 139,349, 127,267, 133,204. So that the proportion of births to the population is 3 . 022 per cent. in 1849, or greater than in the correspond ing quarters of 1847-8 ; it is less than iu the De• cember quarters of 1843-6. The births in the year 1849 were 578,087, which is the greatest number ever returned in one year. The number of births in 1846 was 572,625, in 1847 only 539,965, and in 1848, 563,205. The estimated proportions to the population in the six years 1844-9, were 3.263, 3 . 236, 3 . 364, 3.181, 3 . 223, and 3.264 per cent. The latter proportion is equal to 1 in 31 (or 30.64) of the population ; 1 in 15.67 of the female population i • and 1 in 7.33 of the woman at the ages 15-45. Tne number of per sons of the ages 15 and under 45 in the country was the England; fi e rrnie against nn tbhee which i omiddlenging t on July 2, 1849, not more tha n 3,955 ,299 men, and 4,238,481 women, showin g an excess of 283,189 women of the at agebett 1 5-45 a ncountry in a o England, PlrtY of bu the army,slea from seaman, of the year, have to be placed. The births, in the metropolitan districts of Surrey, in Liverpool, and in Hull, where cholera was so fatal in the summer quarter, were fewer in the December quarter of 1849, than in the corresponding quarter of 1848. BIRTHS AND DEATHS. -MOVEMENT OF POPULATION. Tue births registered in the last quarter of 1849 Isere 135,481, the deaths 97,688 ; so that the natural increase of which there is a record was 37,793. But 46,136 persons emigrated in the quarter from 11 ports at which there are Government officers, and 41,845 of the number left the three English ports of Liverpool, London, and Plymouth.* All the births in England are not registered, the emigrants of lieglish birth are not distinguished, no account is taken of the immigrants into England, and S.:otland and Ireland still remain almost the only parts of the civilized world in which the births and deaths are unregistered, so that the accurate statement, which might otherwise by proper arrange ments be so easily made of the movement of the population of the United Kingdom, is impossible. The excess of births over deaths in the year was 578,087-441,458=136,629. STATE OP TIIE PUBLIC HEALTH. The deaths in the last quarters of the five years 1845-6-7-8-9, were 80,681, 108,937, 103,479, 92,447, 97,775. The rate of mortality in the quarter was 2'lBl per cent. ; slightly in excess of the average rite (2.165) of the 12 December quarters 1838-49. The lowest rate of mortality (1 . 898) was experienced in the December quarter, 1845 —the highest (2529) in the corresponding quarter of 1846. of the 10 byo If we take the compl e t e years—the deaths re gistered in the five years 184 5-6-7-8-9, were 349,366, 390,315, 423,304, 400,060, 4 41,458. The deaths in 1849 exceeded the deaths in c mortality f the 12 years 1838-49, years 92,92. 1838-47 wasaverage a 2 g . The a 2 e l3 annual per 2-243. The annual mortality was lowest (2.080 per cent., or lin 48) in the year 1845 ; hig - hest (2 . 493, or lin 40) in the year 1849. The high rate of mor tality set in with an epidemic of what was called diarrhosa and English ch o l era in the summer of 1846; it was succeeded by influenza at the close of 1847 and the beginning of 1848; the Asiatic form of cholera first distinctly showed itself in October, 1848, and raged in many places with great violence in the months of July, August, September, and a part of October, 1849, when it generally subsided. The returns of the other States of Europe are still so much in arrear that there are no means of com paring them with those of England, but it is worthy of remark that the mortality of England in 1849, when cholera was epidemic, scarcely exceeded the mortality of France and Sweden in ordinary years, en 1 was much less than the ordinary mortality of Saxony, Prussia, Italy, luatria, and Russia. I. LONDON.—The deaths in London from specified causes were 12,818 ; of which 3,227 were by diseases of the zymotic class, 2,035 tubercular, and 2,133 by pulmonary disease. Of the deaths 494 were by cholera,; 482 by diarrhcea. All except about 20 of the deaths from cholera occurred in October. 99 deaths from small-pox, 338 from measles, 486 from scarlatina, and 273 from hooping-cough, were registered ; the numbers are below the average. Metria, erysi pelas, and syphilis, were less than usually fatal. The deaths of the mothers in and after childbirth, were 116, or one death of the mother to 1,168 children born ; a small proportion, not so low, perhaps, as it should be, but much lower than it has been at the, same season in London, or, perhaps, in any other city. We death f rom hydrophobia was registered in the December quarter, 1845 ; none since. The registrar of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, Charing-cross, remaks Cholera has disappeared, but there is an extensive field for improvement in the dwellings of the poor, as well as in the drainage ; and a supply of water in a state fit to drink, instead of the disgusting fluid now so highly charged fir, is loudly demanded.' ir. SOUTII-E ASTERN DIVISION. Measles and scarlatina prevailed in some of the parishes of Epsom ; typhus and influenza in Guildford ; at Farnham, Dorking, and the other districts of Surrey, the mor tality was below the average. The registrar of Friinley only registered six deaths. " Tais is lower," he says, " than I ever remember it to have been. Owing to the alarm of the cholera, the people in this district have been more guarded in their manner of living ; and in consequence of the low price of almost every article of food and clothing, the condition of the labourer is considerably improved within the last six months." The general mortality in Kent, Sussex, and Hamp shire is lower than it was in 1848 ; yet small-pox, scarlatina, and measles prevailed in many districts. In Abingdon, Bradfield, Reading, EAsthatripstead, and Windsor (Berkshire) the mortality was in excess. Scarlatina and small-pox prevailed in Reading ; measles, hooping-cough, and small-pox in Windsor, where 23 deaths from cho l era were registered—the last on October 31. 111. SOUTH MIDLAND DIVISION.—The mortality was lower than in 1848 in Middlesex and Bucking hamshire, slightly higher in Oxfordshire, Northamp tonshire, Huntingdonshire, Bedfordshire, and Cam bridgeshire. 'There was an excess in Hitchin from cholera and typhus; in Great Marlow, High Wycombe, from cholera, measles, and typhus. " The cases of V. SOUTH-WESTERN DIVISION.—The mortality in 1.849 was" generally lower in Wilts, and higher iu Dinetibire,..Devonahire, 'Cornwall, and Somerset 7s , shire, , thlin it was-la the corresponding quarter'sOf 1848. Scnall-pox prevailed in many districts where vaccination had been neglected. Scarlatina prevailed in Heavitree, where is "great destitution among the labouring population from want of labour." There were 2 deaths from cholera in St. Sid well, 13 in St. David, Exeter (the last on Oct. 30) ; and 18 from dysentery, in the Exeter workhouse. After the choli ra of the summer had extended over England—and smitten many thousands of the population in all unhealthy places—partial outbreaks followed in autumn, like the distant peals of thunder after a hurricane. The epidemic lingered in parts of Devon, Cornwall, and Somersetshire, an d b ro k e out fatally in Taunton workhouse and in Bridgwater. The deaths in Bridg water from all causes were 318 ; which is nearly at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum of the population. Cholera prevailed in Plymouth through October ; fever in Bath. VI. WEST MIDLAND DIVISION...-..The mortality was lower than the average in Gloucestershire, Here fordshire, Shropshire, and Warwickshire; higher than the average in Staffordshire and Warwickshire. Scarlatina was rife in parts of Shropshire and War wickshire. Several cases of cholera were fatal over Staffordshire. The deaths in Birmingham were 1,036, in Coventry 349, in Worcester 143, Stafford 115, Shrewsbury 122. VII. NORTH MIDLAND DIVISION.—The mortality in Leicestershire, Rutlandshire, and Nottinghamshire was above, of Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire below the average of the season. The mortality was below the average in Lincoln and Nottingham. The mor tality was the average in the Basford district, where were several cases of cholera as well as in Newark. VIII. NORTH-WESTERN DIVISION.--The morta lity in Cheshire and Lancashire is considerably below the average. Scattered cases of cholera oc curred over the counties—chiefly in October. The deaths in Liverpool and West Derby were 2,681, in Manchester and Salford 2,415. The registrar of Howard-street, Liverpool, says the sub-district is depopulated one-half from various causes ; no deaths from cholera occurred in the Manchester workhouse, containing 1,300 inmates. IX. Yoax DIVISION.—The mortality was above the average in the West Riding; below the average in the East and North Ridings. Cholera broke out in Knaresborough with some severity, and doubled the deaths in the sub.district. The epidemic cholera was fatal in Leeds in October. Bradford and other districts suffered more or less from the disease. Shef field was comparatively healthy. Hull suffered hea vily from cholera in the summer, and lost some in habitants in October, but the last two months of the year were healthy. In Rillington only four out of 4,000 inhabitants died from any cause in the three montk,. X. NORTHERN DiVISION.—The mortality of Dur ham end Northumberland was above, of Cumber land about, of Westmoreland below, the average . The cholera epidemic terminated in many of the dis tricts of Durham at the beginning of the quarter; the epidemic broke out at I3odlington in November, and killed on the hill-side 26 people in a short time. There is a want of drainage. Cholera also raged in Alnwick. XI. WELSH DIVISION.—The mortality was some what above the average in Wales; chiefly from cholera and scarlatina. In Merthyr-Tydfil the scene of the great tragedy in summer, the deaths were 470. * Return by Emigration Commissioners. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATT ERSALL'S.—YESTERDAY.

BANKING INTELLIGENCE.—We understand that the chattered banks in Glasgow, in connexion with Edinburgh, have abandoned the intention of following out the notice respecting interest on depcsit a2counts lately advertised by them. We are glad of this step, as we are confident the change would not suit the meri dian of Glasgow.—Glasgow Herald. Intelligence has been received from Berlin to the ' 29th ult. In the morning sitting of the First Cham ber on that day the general debate on the Royal ' Message was concluded. As yet the following propositions have been adopted unanimously, in accordance with the Se cond Chamber :—Proposition I. (concerning- the Press); IL (Lanisturtn); 111. (Civic Guard); IV. (Term for the dissolution of the Chambers); and IX. (Electoral districts of the Second Chamber). Pro position V. (Ministerial responsibility) has been re jected. The Staats Anzeiger of Wirtemberg confirms the report that a German constitution has been drawn up by the Four Kings of the Secondary States. The Erfurt elections have generally fallen out, in the small states, in favour of the constitutional party. The democratic party has abstained from voting. The Saxon Government has laid before the Cham bers a Bill on the right of association and assembly. The Chambers have voted the removal of the state of siege at Dresden. The Danish poet OEHLENSCHLAGER is dead. The Wiener Zeitung publishes an ordinance, or ganising a gen-d'armerie for Austria. In Hungary the Austrian authorities are setting the condemned murderers and thieves at liberty, in order to obtain room in the prisons for the political prisoners. According to correspondence of the Augsburg Allgemeine Zeitung from Frankfort, dated 17th, fresh rumours are current in that city of a partition of Baden. The proposal is represented to have emanated from Vienna, and to be grounded upon a convention between the Cabinets of Vienna and Munich. Austria claims the portions formerly belonging to her Crown ; and Bavaria that part of the Palatinate which fell to Baden. Hess is also to get a bit of the spoil lying on her bonbon The Grand Duke of BADEN anti his successors are to be indemnified by possession in Franconia. Fresh changes ( f territory are to follow upon the execu tion of this plan, according to which Prussia is to be enlarged at the cost of the same Prince. RUSSIA AND CIRCASSIA. A private letter from the Dardanelles states, on the authority of accounts from Erzerourn cf the 13th of December, that instead of the great victory stated in the St. Petemburgh Gazette to have been gained by the Russians over SCLIANIYL in Daghestan, it was, on the contrary, the Russians who were obliged to retire after a heavy loss. GREECE. The Daily News publishes the following in a second edition : BLOCKADE OF THE PIRIEUS BY ADMIRAL PARKER. A letter from Athens, of the 19th (sent by our Malta correspondent), states that, "Immediately Vice-Admiral Parker received pratique be demanded from the Greek Govermment the payment, withir. 24 hours, of all moneys due to British, or protected British subjects, from Greece; also that the Islands of Sell entia and Cabrera, off the south west side of the Morey, and which form a part of the lonian Isles, should be immediately given up to him, threatening, in the event of refusal, to blockade the Piraeus and make reprisals. The sensation this message occasioned cannot be described. Otho, however, refused it in toto, and Admiral Parker has consequently taken possession of the men-cf- war in the Piraeus, and blockaded the coast. It was reported that the Admiral had declared war against Greece, but I should think the reprisals are so consi dered. Also that a mob at the Pirasus had burnt down the English consul's house. Here in Athens, we English are not a I:ttle alarmed. There is a council of Ministers now sitting. Those of Russia and Austria are also closet el.
