Already we have commented upon the ex ertions made by that generous soldier in behalf of the illustrious captive, exertions which have hitherto proved ineffectual in bringing about the EMIR'S liberation. Again we have reason to refer in terms of the most earnest eulogium to another instance of similar magnanimity. Having awaited with no in considerable anxiety the results of his first energetic interposition, having found that the princely senti ments expressed by Louis NAPOLEON remained fruit less of the happy consequences anticipated, Lord LON DONDERRY has once more brought the subject under the consideration of the PRESIDENT of the French Re public through a letter evidencing in its writer an elevated sympathy for the unfortunate. The document is remarkable throughout for a vigorous and unaf fected eloquence, an eloquence resulting from the force of those emotions in which the whole of this ge nerous interference has originated. The effusion does honour to the heart of the old soldier : it speaks no less emphatically for his intellect : it betokens an entire abnegation of self in the pertinacity displayed in a renewed application, the precursor of which had been followed only by very grievous disappoint ment. Since the moment of his interview with the heroic prisoner in the Chateau d'Amboise the Marquis of LONDONDERRY has strained every nerve to fulfil the promise volunteered by him upon that occasion, the promise of using every means within his reach to effect ABD-EL-KADER'S release from incarceration. It should be borne in re collection particularly that the Marquis of Lola- DONDERRY was justified, perhaps more than any other man, in looking forward to the possibility of inter ceding effectively with the Republican Chief Magistrate. For a like interposition in behalf of Louis NAPOLEON, when confined in the castle of Ham, the Imperial Prince was nearly indebted for his emancipation, the word of the late KING having been pledged to the foreign intercessor, and only foregone because of an unlucky bullet fired im mediately afterwards by an assassin at Fontaine bleau. Strengthened by the remembrance of that brilliant testimony of his personal friendship for the Prince Louis NAPOLEON, and satisfied that his en treaties, more perchance than those of any other individual, would, under the circumstances, have weight with the PRESIDENT of the French Republic, the Marquis of LONDONDERRY pleaded with the more confidence the cause of the most chivalric captain of the age. It cannot be forgotten that the request laid before Louis NAPOLEON upon this matter was re sponded to in terms eminently befitting the nephew of the modern CHARLEMAGNE. Listening only to the dictates of: his own heroic and gentle heart, he avowed at once his solicitude to bring about the result besought from his Government, adding that negotiations were already commenced, on the part of the French Ambassador at Constantinople. Than this, of course, nothing could be more peculiarly satisfactory. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY, grate ful for the spirit and promptitude with which his appeal had been acknowledged, lapsed again into silence, confident that every reasonable delay would be compensated by the ultimate freedom accorded to the captive of the Chateau d'Amboise. Therefore it is that, impressed with this conviction, the noble advocate of ABD-EL-KADER has since then held his peace, awaiting anxiously, Out with a sentiment of security, the realization of his magnanimous hopes.; Yet, propitious as everything appeared at the outset of the interval which thereupon elapsed, doubts have gradually thickened over the future; and the consequence is that Lord LONDONDERRY has ven tured to address supplementary entreaties in regard to the EMIR to the Prince Louis NaroLEox as the head of the Republican Government. Employing in this renewal of his demand one of the most graceful and beautiful among the figures of rhetoric, he thus addresses himself to the PRESIDENT :—" In the intoxi cating fairyland of the Hotel de Ville, where hun dreds and thousands of souls poured the wide stream of flattery and incense around you, did the thought never occur, ' Where is ADD.EL-KADER ?' In the splendid array of the ilite of the warlike and noble army of France, in her Champ de Mars, amidst the enthusiastic cries of `Viva NAPOLEON 1' did no pang shoot across your bosom, ' Where was ADD-EL. KiDER ?' In the delicious groves of St. Cloud, sur- i rounded by the Commissioners of the Industry of all Nations, with flattery of diplomatists, and ladies hanging on your smiles, while the most conspicuous, from her temporary position, hung upon your arm, did it never occur to you, ' Where is ABD-EL-KADER ?" The emotionswhich those words cannot have failed to excite must have deepened still further the generous feelings with which, according to his own assurance, Louis NAPOLEON has hitherto continued to regard the heroic captive of the Chateau D'Amboise. Nor can they have failed the less in their effect from the circumstances that they are accom panied by expressions sufficiently indicating on th e part of the writer a gratifying appreciation of his own elevated and princely character. Having pic tured to the PRESIDENT the aspect which any evasion of the desired liberation would inevitably assume in the eyes of the people of Christendom, Marquis of LONDOND ERR Y exclaims, moreover, "thus you m ay l eave, under timid vacillation and fearful prejudices to some inglorious successor to supreme power andpower in France to Anr) ance the crown AD of Ea g , th lor w io i us sympathy which you might now decorate your fair and I still believe, faultless brow." Warned by these ' words, from the peril of allowing an opportunity so desirable to slip by unimproved, Louis NAPOLEON has re sponded to his friendly correspondent in lang uage worthy of his illustrious name, an d hi s unblemished reputation. He has reiterated with his " princely word," the assurance of his own personal anxiety to be in some measure instrumental in liberating the victim of so much treachery. His intentions towards the EMIR he still declares to remain unchanged ; added to which he distinctly observes that his ambassador has found the Ottoman P o rte ready to welcome AB D-EL-KADER within the Turkish dominions ; and that the imme diate liberation of the latter is only yet a while pro crastinated, because of certain temporary but insur mountable obstacles. After this interesting corre spondence, no doubt can any longer be entertained in re ference to the ultimate release of ABD-EL-K.ADER from emancipationofisn experi ence, of the mis er ' sympa thising in the man t r m .i en a t w , t a h re e i Prince PRESIDENT being indi viduallyo s olicitous to accomplish the work of his character of the Arab chie f tain. great captain shall find the doors of it must not be forgotten dumb and indifferent, the actuated by the feelings of from . his own personal les of incarceration, and sympa y noble and glorious phases in the Whenever that that t ors of his prison opened, m ;while others remained 4 'tills of LONDONDERRY, A gallant and veteran LONDON, soldier, exerted himself to strike off the fetters of cap tivity, and to give once more to freedom the gloriou3 chieftain of the Arabs in whose veins flows the blood of MAIIOMET Whatever may be the views and feelings of the Protectionist " rank and file," and of their would-be leaders, the PAUL FOSKETTS, CHOWLERS, et hoc genus omne, it is quite manifest that the more important members of the party have seen the utter absurdity of persisting in a vain struggle to bring back the de funct corn-laws, or to revive the infamous bread-tax. At every bucolic gathering we find the principal guests of the evening giving in their adhesion to the opinions recently put forward by Mr. DISRAELI at Aylesbury, and cautioning the tenant-farmers against indulging in any sanguine anticipations of legislative interference. They were earnestly advised to put their shoulders to the wheel and endeavour to overcome the difficulties and impediments of which they are complaining by their own exertions and from their own resources, and informed that if any aid is to be afforded, it must be sought for in the only legitimate quarter—from the proprietors of the soil, who should make abatements adequate to the exigencies of the case. This is as it should be. It is of the utmost importance that the British farmer should learn his true position; that he should prepare himself for the fair and open competition to which he must be exposed, and not waste his time in un- availing grumblings, or in unreasonable expectations which can never be realized. At Watlington last week Messrs. HARCOURT and HENLEY made clean breasts of it. They took the advantage of the opportunity afforded by meeting a numerous and influential body of their constituents to explain their tardy con- viction, to which they had at length unwillingly yielded. Nothing could be mere candid or straight forward than Mr. HARCOURT. After explaining the deep personal interest which he, as the owner of land in five different counties, must necessarily feel in all relating to the cultivation of the soil, and :the pros pects of agriculture, and briefly and gracefully touching on the sacrifices which he had felt it his duty to make in order to meet his tenantry halfway, and participate in their losses, he boldly confessed the error into which he had fallen in opposing the pro position of Lord JOHN RUSSELL for a fixed duty, and supporting the sliding scale in opposition. The Honourable Gentleman acknowledged that had he ten years since expressed that opinion, or voted with the Whig Minister, it would have led to the termination of his connexion with the constituency of the county of Oxford, but he at the same time asserted, that had he then entertained his present views, he would have delivered his senti ments fearlessly and unequivocally, without reference to the personal consequences. He then declared that "the state of things as they were in 1846 and 1847 could not have existed," adding, "it was essential something should be done." Warming with his subject, and encouraged by the cheers with which his previous statements had been received, the Honourable Gentleman expressed his belief that " one of the worst votes he ever gave, and which was most calculated to be prejudicial to the interests of the agricultural community, was in the year 1815, when he voted that no foreign corn should be introduced unless the price was 80s. That year the price was 803.,' but the distress prevailing everywhere was such that nothing since had equalled it. The next year it was 608., when the formers were almost ruined." Should not these unquestionable facts, established by the testimony of a trustworthy and unimpeachable witness, induce the farmers to pause and investigate the real causes of existing difficulties ? From the examples cited by Mr. HARCOURT, and many others that could be adduced, they may see that " protection" did not help them in the olden time. It was the tampering with the currency that led to the distress in those days, and nothing but the removal of the unjust restrictions since imposed, which the regulators of the circulating medium were then preparing for, can provide a fitting remedy. Let them, if they really wish for relief, look to an alteration of the monetary code, ;which would indeed afford protection to every species of British industry. If Mr. HENLEY did not quite agree with his Hon- Colleague in regretting his past votes, he was at least equally explicit as to the future policy that should be pursued. Without expressing any:approval of the change that has taken place, his complaint was rather that the question had not received " a full and free in vestigation," than that, the decision then arrived at was erroneous ; but with respect to that decision he said—" I see no signs whatever, so: far as my ob servation enables me to judge, that would enable those gentlemen who represent you in Parliament, with any chance of success, to ask for a new trial and a new verdict. I know I am speaking to parties who have had an adverse judgment given. The judgment has been given against us. lam speaking technically, of course. You cannot get that judgment set aside unless you can carry facts to found a new trial upon. I say, at present we have not these facts. When we have them we shall know how to deal with them. But it is useless for gentlemen to expect their representatives to make out a case, if that case is not supported by facts out of doors. You must take facts into Parliament, nothing else is of any use there, and what is more, these must be of a nature to show that they are at least emanations from a majority of the people." These open confessions were received, like Mr. HARCOURT'S, with considerable applause. The farmers of Oxfordshire clearly acquiesced in the views of their representatives as to the uselessness of making any further struggle to bring back protective laws, and the ab - solute necessity of accommodating themselves to the present circumstances of the country. In Berkshire, too, Mr. PALMER, M.P., told the assembled agricul turists that, "with the present House of Commons the restoration of protection was altogether out of the question ; what might be done, if the country at the next general election should speak out, no man could say, but if, on the other hand, the result of the next general election should be to confirm the policy adopted in 1846, the county Members could not help it, and their constituents must patiently accommodate themselves to circumstances." With such indications, it requires no extraordinary foresight t o p re di c t t h e course t h at w ill b e pursued It b it y o ni s the ef r faPencryoutyencoct corn-law, e o na n -rl i a s t t wh s tnotehfxeta questionsession h 00 0 fw f et hy P ee a r r r l t i re a is m flt e nr n ga t : . on food, is thrown overboard for the present. The real contest will take place when the dissolution o f Parliament renders an appeal to the country neces sary, and if the Free-traders are then worthy of themselves, if they duly appreciate the inestt • • mable blessing of " a cheap loaf," the h muc -vexed ques tion will be at once and for ever set at rest. he HER MAJESTY'S JOURNEY SOUTHWARD. --It IS expected that her Majesty will arrive at Edinburgh on the evening of Tuesday from Balmoral, and that she will leave the Caledonian Railway station, Lothian-road, next morn ing, between eight and nine o'clock, on her way south Luncheon has been ordered for the royal party at Lan caster, on Wednesday the Bth instant, at two o'clock. The journey thence will likely occupy from four-and-a-half to live hours, the distance being 170 miles.—Scotsman. ACCELERATION OF THE NORTHERN MID-DAY MAlL—Yesterday the merchants and men of business in the City were somewhat agreeably surprised by receiving, at two o'clock, instead of past three o'clock as usual, their let ters and newspapers from the north, thereby enabling them to write off their replies, and leave the ledger an hour earlier. The convenience is the result of an acceleration of this mail from the let inst., by direction of the Postmaster- General, the mail having left Liverpool at 4.15, instead of 6, Aag. LIB SWELL/. ROCKS.—When Lord John Russell inspected the Britannia-bridge, during his recent visit to Wales, his attention was drawn to the Swells Rocks by Mr. T. Assheton Smith, and it being at the time low water, his Lordship had an opportunity of . seeing the great obstruction which they form Lordship seemed impressed with the importance of the sub ject, and it is confidepntl de' ermined upon. If empected that their removal will be these rocks were blasted, nearly the whole of the Irish trade south of Wicklow-head would find a direct passage through Straits at a great . saving of time and distance. The question excites deep interest in the lo cality, being of the greatest importance, not only to North Wales, but also to the whole oftoehwesterr!, coast of Eng ,of Ficeisuti.ttm land. The Premier and family proceeded to the delightful vales and.Tanyb g Ileddgelert, wich, and having visited the principal objects zw o l ae e n c g t ts of interest, and attended divine service on Sunday church, passed through Rhyl, to honour with a visit thweTgord.Liett tenant of the county, the Hon.

They contain little of interest. The question of the revocat:on of the Electoral law of 1850 is the chief subject directly or indirectly commented on. The democratic Socialist journals avail themselves easily of the arguments brought forward for the repeal by the 7ortstittaionnel in oppo sition to the Dibats and nearly all the other Conser vative journals, which declare that they regard the maintenance of that law as the best, if not the only guarantee against anarchy. 11. VERON continues his arguments i❑ favour of the repeal of the Electoral law, and against the candidcteship of the Prince DE JOINVILLE. In an article of nearly five columns of the Conatitutionnel of Thursday he enters upon a re view of the claims and chances of the Prince, and also of the prospects of the Cunt DE CHAMBORD, and concludes by declaring that if the Electoral law be repealed LOUIS NAPOLEON oust be re-elected by the people by an overwhelming majority.. It is thought that the election for a representative of Paris, in place of Genera MAGNAN, who has re signed, will take place at the end of the present month, or in the beginn.ng of November. The Prince DE JOINYILLE is confidently spoken of as a candidate. The French Government refused to allow Kos- SUTH and his companions to pass through France on their way to England. Cotnt BATTEIYANI is the only one who is allowed to reside in France. The attempt made by the Turkish Government to prevent the Pacha of EGYP^ from making a railway from Alexandria to Cairo hes not met with such una nimous sympathy in France as those who have coun selled the Porte to take thit step probably expected. Even the organ of M. Tunas (the Ordre) speaks of the note addressed by the Turkish Minister to ARRAS PACBA as an attempt to deprive the successor of MEEIEMET Au of all independence. The Union also supports the Egyptian Govern ment, and the only papers that have hitherto said anything in favour o the Turkish note are the Constitutionnel, the organ cf M. BAROCHE, and the Debuts, of which M. DE LAVALETTE was long an editor, and to which he is probably still a con tributor. The Prefect of Polite has caused to be removed from the windows of several shops the licentious prints which were exposed in them, and has com menced prosecutions against the exhibitors. The Messager du Midi says that Admiral DUN DAs, one of the Lords of th e Admiralty, had arrived on his way to Cette, from whence he at w aMontpellier, proceed by an English steamer to inspect the fleet commanded by Admiral PARKER, which is now off Barcelona. Public securities again declined at the Bourse. The Five per Cents. opened at 91f. 80c., and closed at 91f. 55c. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 55f. 65c.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 856 f. 25c.; Rouen, 557 50c.; Havre, 215 f.; Great Northern, 455 f.; Pierson, 420 f.; Basle, 1481. 75c.; Bordeaux, 3821.50 c. ; Paris and Strasburg, 3501.; Tours and Nantes, 261 f. 25c.

SPAIN. We have received the Madrid journals of the 27th ult. The Epoca states that the superior authorities of Cuba have proposed a plan for fortifying the island. The works will, it is said, cause an outlay of forty millions of reels, but half this sum may, in the opinion of General CONCHA, be found in savings which he proposes to make in the war department. The plan of fortifications proposed by General CONCHA has been submitted to a committee of general officers, who have reported favourably on it to the Go vernment. The Comercio of Cadiz says that a royal order has been received there, conceding to an English company the power to make a railway from Jerez de la Frontera to Andujar. The Barcelona journals are full of the reciprocal visits paid by the authorities there and the English admiral and commanders. General LA ROCHA was to give a grand ball on the 22d, to which the English officers and all the notabilities of Barcelona had been invited. The Duke and Duchess of MONTPENSIER had a levee at their palace at Seville on the 21st, the birth day of their eldest daughter. GERMAN Y. The Austrian Eurzaois left Monza on the 25th, and prodeeded to Lavono. After sailing about for some time on Lago Maggiore, his MAJESTY pro ceeded to Somma,which he reached the same even- , ing. At Serto alendo the imperial suite was joined by General WRANGEL. The prohibition which was imposed upon the Hun garian newspapers some time ago, not to insert any intelligence relative to the refugees, has been removed, and the editors enjoined to to careful in the insertion of articles of that nature, for which they are made responsible. The Duke of MODENA has subscribed for the new Austrian loan to the amount of one million and a half of florins, and the Cologne Gazette states that the houses of HOPE, of Amsterdam, and DE ROTHSCHILD have subscribed for the remainder of the loan. The most productive railway in Germany is that from Furth to Nuremberg, which is at the same time the shortest and the oldest of all the lines which exist on the Germanic territory. This line, which is only about a lea g ue and a quarter French measure (about 20 t 0 , 3 miles English), was constructed at a cost of florins (500,000 f.) ; th e gross rece ipt s , in 1850, amount ed to 58,338 florins, and the expenses to 31,471 florins; o leaving to th e s ha re h o ld ers a ne t profit of 2 6 , 861 florins, or 13 i per cent. on the capi tal. During the fifteen years that this railway has existed more than seven millions of persons have passed over it, out of whom only one passenger has met with any injury, and that was by his own im prudence. The Diet has decided that a contingent of 28,000 men shall be assigned to Frankfort as a protective force. Lord COWLEY, the British Ambassador, has been pam phlet on Naples am ong th e m em bers of very diligent in distributing copies of Mr. GLAD. SDTiOeNt. are I t is said that the w ith the express sanctio n o f L o rd P ALMER . various ambassadors to the tsh•reoN Diet,Bs disposed to repudiate thi s i n t er f eren ce of a foreign power in the domestic affairs of another kingdom. The fate of the projected German fleet seems to be decided, for the subject appears to have died away. It be a distinct Baltic flotilla, Prussia, which intend to main tain o h s s possible that ttuehsanttreiteaht fleets, andew mayipllrtuaske a no part. Prussia, on the conclusion of the Prusso-Hanoverian treaty, signified its readiness, though not in the ex press form of a secret additional article, to act in such a manner that the conduct of the Baltic flotilla shall be confided to Hanover. This, under existing cir cumstances, will, however, be very likely to create fresh jealousies and mistrust among the other midland states of Germany, if they are called upon, as they certainly will be, to contribute their share to the maintenance of thejleet in the Baltic. The opinion is uTanimous that Prussia has gained an immense increase of political influence by the conclusion of the treaty with Hanover. ITALY. There is a report that the little Republic of St. Marino is to be given to Cardinal ALTIERI, who has now returned to Bologna. Sardinian vessels will not in future be permitted to carry on the coasting trade along the Roman coast unless they pay the dues im posed by the Papal See. While the Mississippi was lying in the Gulf of Genoa KOSSUTU addressed a letter to the Government of Turin, requesting permission to rest for a few mo ments on the Sardinian soil. The Sardinian Go vernment replied that it did not wish to oppose the slightest obstacle to his staying there ; but that in the present state of its relations with neighbouring powers, it would remind him of the inconvenience that might result therefrom, and would leave it to his own conscience to decide whether, under such cir cumstances, he ought or ought not to invoke the hos pitality of Piedmont. This reply w:As approved by all parties, and KOSSUTH did not land. Signor SPINOL9, the Sardinian Charge d'Affaires to oththee same day hlolySee, arrived at Rome on the 23 d ult. Signor MARONGIU, the Archbishop of Cagliari, who was expelled last year by the Sar dinian Government, arrived at Rome from Leghorn. The Malta journals of the 25th ult. announce the departure of Mr. LUSEINGTON, the Chief Secretary of the island, for Naples, w here he is obliged to repair for the b enef i t of his health. The local journals express great regret at this gentleman's de parture. DEATH OF LADY SOPHIA. FREKE. — This lady died a few days since at Osmanby Park, near Lincoln. The deceased was born in 1795, and was married first to Sir Tho mas Whichcote, Bart., and secondly, in 1840, to the Hon. William Charles Evans Freke, a scion of the noble house of Carberry. Lady Sophia was 'daughter of the fifth Earl of Ilarborough. FUNERAL OF LADY ST. GrEOßGH.—Yesterday after noon the mortal remains of this. venerable and esteemed lady were removed from her residence, York-street, Portman square, for interment in the family vault at Kensal-green Cemetery. The funeral was as private as circumstances would permit.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were es timated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American were taken for export. The sales consist of about 4,000 American, 110 Pernam and Maranbam at 50. to 60., 20 Bahia at 60., 100 Egyptian at 50. to 71d., and 500 Surat at 3d. to 4d. per lb.—The Share market was rather firmer. There has been a cautious line of policy adopted again this week by holders of produce in not pressing sales, but this, perhaps, is as much the result of necessity as liking. The arrivals are increasing from all parts owing to the change of wind which has brought in so many vessels that have been long detained at sea. Buyers act as charily as ever, and it requires concession in price to induce them to operate at all freely. Cotton is not so brisk, and Indigo rules dull, owing to the large supply to be brought forward at the next auctions. Other sta ples consumed for manufacturing purposes have been in less request. Sugar, Coffee, Tea, and Tallow, have been taken sparingly. In Tobacco a moderate business has been done. The following is the report upon the London markets for the month by Messrs. 11. W. Jewesbury and Co.:— " The markets for foreign and colonial produce con tinue extremely depressed, notwithstanding the deliveries are upon the same large scale, and money is abundant for legitimate purposes; doubtless the failures which have taken place, and the rumours that have been in circulation, have tended to produce this result, together with an uneasy feeling that sooner or later produce to a considerable extent will be forced upon the market. Purchases are consequently made with great caution, and as much as possible curtailed i❑ their extent. The de mand for Indigo (chiefly Guatemala), Cochineal, and Lac Dye has been fair during the past month, and pre vious rates have been fully maintained; other dyes and dyeing materials are much the same as in our last. The reports from the continental markets notice only a moderato demand at former rates. The next periodical sale of Indigo will commence on Tuesday the 7th inst. The declarations reach the large amount of 21,389 chests. The effect of this large quantity being announced has been to prevent business to any extent i❑ Bengal sorts during the past month, and many orders have been withdrawn under the im pression that prices will rale lower in the approaehing sale. It is currently reported that 6,000 or 7,000 chests will be withdrawn, either before or very early i❑ the sale; this would leave about 14,000 chests, of which the actual number sold will probably be about 7,000 chests. The stocks both at home and on the continent are known to be unusually small, yet the demand for con sumption having been checked by the advance i❑ Octo ber last, when prices rose Is. per pound, the trade have not recovered from the effect of high prices, and the substitution of other colours." Yellow Candle Tallow is quoted 395. for new, and 38s. 9d. for old 1850; but during the past month the price was higher, and 10s. to 15s. per ton above these prices have been obtained for several hundred tons. There is one feature in the market of very great im portance, i. e., the fact of the Russians, after refusing to sell their Tallow to the English houses at St. Petersburgh, having made arrange ment with houses in London to send on con signment from 35,000 to 40,000 casks, with an agree ment that the consignees are to hold it for 12 months, should the consigners desire them to do so. The Amsterdam Stock Market on the Ist inst. was brisk, and at one period prices were advancing for home Securities, though they closed a shade lower, Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. having been 58k. Spanish Bonds were animated, and Mexican more offered. The position of the English Stock Market has again improved, and, under the influence of the large bullion imports and the favourable reports of the East Indian and United States money markets, prices aro expected to go higher rather than otherwise. Consols have been 96i to 3 for Transfer, and 961 to 97 for Account. The premium on Exchequer-bills has been 435. to 465. East India Stook has realised 2601. The continued decline in the Bente.? at Paris seems to have no effect hero. Foreign Securities are generally firm. Spanish Five per Cents. have been at 204 3, and the Three per Cents. at 374 4. Mexican Bonds have been 27 to 274 nomi nally, being firm. Peruvian Old Stock is worth 834 ex. div. Russian Five per Cents. have been at 111, French Three per Cents. 56 25, with the exchange at 25 20, and Dutch Four per Cents. at 904 ex-div, Sardinian Bonds have been at 8* Railway Shares are much quieter, and in most in stances not quite so high, but no marked change has occurred.

CORN EXCHAINTGE-FRIDAY. Rather :a large quantity of English Wheat, 5,110 quarters, has been received up to our market this week coastwise. The supply fresh up this morning, by land carriage and sT.mple, was on the increase, and the stands were consequently fairly supplied. As the imports of French Flour, 7,760 sacks, are extensive, and as the attendance of both town and country buyers was limited, the demand for all kinds of Wheat of home produce was heavy, at prices barley equal to those obtained on Mon day. Needy 10,000 quarters of foreign Wheat, chiefly from the we3tward, and in low condition, have reached us. That article met a very dull sale, at barely late rates. Floating cargoes of Potish Odessa were offer ing at 298 per quarter, freight, cost, and insurance. The show of both English and Foreign Barley was on the increase. The trade ruled heavy, and last week's quotations wore not supported. In Malt we have very few transactions to notice. GC.3(I sound Oats sold at previous currencies, but low and damp parcels were much neglected. Beans and peas were very dull, but Indian Corn was held at full currencies. We had a mo. derate inquiry for Flour at late rates. ARRIVALS THIS WEEK. Wheat. Barley. Malt. Data. Flour. Qrs. I Qrs. Qrs. 5,110 1,550 2,140 Qrs.

The supply of Beasts on sale in to-day's market was seasonably good as to number, but very deficient in quality. Prime breeds sold at full rates of currency. Otherwise !he demand was in a very depressed state. Notwithstanding that the supply of sheep was small, the demand for that description of stock was heavy, at Monday's quotations—the extreme figure for the best old Downs being 4s per 81bs. We had a very dull in• quiry for Calves, the supply of which was limited, at about stationary prices. In Pigs, only a moderate bn•, siness was transacted, at our quotations.
