CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY Notwithstanding the arrivals of English Wheat since Monday have been very small, and the show of samples here, to-day, was trifling, the demand for all descriptions—arising from the thin attendance of buyers—was in a sluggish state, at the late depression in value. In Foreign Wheat, the sup ply of which was small—next to nothing was doing, at almost nominal currencies. The Barley trade was unusually dull, and prices were with difficulty supported. Alait moved off slowly, at unaltered figures. Scarcely any Oats were on show; nevertheless, the trade was dull, at previous quota tions. In Beans, Peas, and Flour, we have scarcely any sales to report.' ,Indian Corn was held at full prices. ARRIVALS. E Wheat. B ar l ey. Oats I Flour. "• • • 2,280 qrs. 940 qrs. 1,310 qrs.

CAMBRIDGE, TUESDAY EVENDIG. I do not exaggerate the state of affairs in remarking that the most intense excitement has prevailed in the University during the whole of this day, in consequence of the course of proceedings which Prince Albert's supporters have deemed it expedient to adopt with reference to the forthcoming election. During the day large numbers of members of the Senate have been flocking into the town, and even at this early stage are exhibited all the indications of a determined and vigorous contest. Indeed, the election of a Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, as you remark in your leading article this morn ing, has assumed altogether a new character. Since Prince Albert's formal refusal to be put in nomination quietness has prevailed throughout the University and town, but the de• termination of the Trinity men to persist in placing his Royal Highness in the false position you so powerfully condemn, has excited unlimited disgust amongst the resident graduates and the members of the University generally. This is suffi ciently evidenced by the conduct of the Rev. Dr. Webb, who indignantly withdrew his name from the committee so soon as he ascertained his Royal Highness's views on the matter. Several other influential members of Prince Albert's commit tee have followed the example of the Master of Clare Hall, and have expressed their intention of withholding their votes altogether in the approaching election. The meeting held in London yesterday, of which the Pest of to-day contains the proceedings, has excited consider able discussion, and without any desire to cast undeserved reflections on the conduct of some of those whose names appear for the first time in connexion with that committee, I may state that certain Right Rev. Prelates, who " have pledged themselves to secure a result so honourable to the University," as Prince Albert's return, have come in for a fair share of criticism. The resident graduates feel some thing like anxiety to learn what circumstances have prompted the feelings of deep gratitude with which the meet• ing, as affirmed in the resolution moved by the Lord Bishop of London, heard that his Royal Highness Prince Albert had been pleased to express the pride and pleasure he would have in filling the office of Chancellor of the University of Cambridge, and still more surprise has been created by the fact, that the Bishop of the metropolitan diocese, who has always proved so lavish in his praises of the Earl of Powis, should at this moment so suddenly turn round, and oppose his appointment to that high office, to which the Noble Earl, in consideration of his untiring exertions in behalf of our na tional Church, has so strong a claim. Motives are imputed, but I will not advert to them. Between one and two o'clock to-day it was rumoured that the Earl of Powis had intimated his intention of resigning, having a personal objection to being brought into collision with the Prince Consort. As the same false report has doubtless been circulated amongst members of the Senate, not at present in the University, I may state, that under any circumstances the Earl of Powis will contest the election to the last.

Accounts 543 10 7 Arrangoments have been made with the directors of the Eastern Counties Railway for running additional trains on Thursday, the day of nomination, and on the following days, if necessary. On Thursday, the day of election, a procession will be formed at St. Catherine Hall, the Master of which, the Rev. H. Phillpott, 8.D., is the Vice-Chancellor of the University for the present year, and will move at ten o'clock towards the Senate House, on arriving at which the Bedell will read the 33d statute of Elizabeth, "de electione Cancellarii." The Vice-Chancellor, the two Proctors, and the Junior Doctor in Divinity present (or, if there be no Doctor in Divinity present, then the Junior Doctor of Law or Physic will supply his place) will stand in scrutiny, and will give in their votes in the following form : "A. B. elegit in Cancellarium nujus Academia." The other two electors will then bring up their votes written in the same form, each of the candidates having a person standing at the table on his behalf. The other members of the Senate will then vote in the order of their arrival. There can be very little doubt, I apprehend, that the re sult of the election will depend mainly upon the nonresident members of the Senate, and as so much interest has been ex cited in all quarters with reference to our future Chancellor, a large number of votes will be registered. I have not been able to ascertain precisely how many members there are of the Senate—that is, persons entitled to vote—as the Univer sity calendar for the present year has not yet been made up. From the last calendar I am enabled to ?hake up the follow ing returns. The number of members of the Senate connected with the several colleges and balls are : Trinity College .. St. John's Colleg e 694 Queen's College 152 Gonville and Caius College Christ's College Corpus Christi College l2B Emmanuel College •••• St. Peter's College St. Catherine's Hall ..... . ..... al Magdalene College Clate Hall Jesus College ......... Trinity Hall Pembroke College King's College Sidney Sussex College . Downing College C9mmorantes in Villa 120 102 116 97 59 36 16 3,454 During the last year the numbers have, of course, mate terially increased, and I think I may safely say that the number now exceeds 4,000. Of these it is confidently anticipated 2,000 will vote in the course of the forthcoming election. 857 15 10 £23,009 18 10 W. WATSON, Secretary. HONG K SU ONG.

THE LIGHTS for FUTURE DAYS. All can now be pleased, whatever is desired in Light. The PEARL CANDLE LAMP is the perfection of Candle Lights, and must succeed ; its simplicity myriads will admire. To sell the ordi nary Candle Lamps is now impossible—the public have long enough been pestered with such rubbish. The DIAMOND CARCEL OIL LAMP is the best oil light In the world. The Camel Lamp is used in all the Palaces in Europe; this Is sufficient guarantee for all—it never will be out-done. The STARLIGHT NIGHT LIGHT is a beautiful little light to illumine the bedchamber. All other night lights will be used no more ; its economy and simplicity all will admire, for what can be desired more than perfection? To what concltpion can we come? Certain, henceforward the only lights will be—the Sun, the mighty gem of Heaven by day; the Pearl and Diamond Lights at evening; and the Star at night, to illumine the British territory. These splendid Lights burning continually at CLARK'S, the immense LAMP DEPOT, 447, West Strand, ten doors from Low. ther Arcade. DIAMOND CARCEL LAMP !

It burns oil, but is free from all imperfections of ordinary oil lamps ; burns from sunset till morning without attention. No cleaning required for years. Is so simple, it cannot be mismanaged. It never will be outdone. The Diamond Carcel Lamp is perfection in light. The public will have none ether. Designs the most chaste and elaborate to suit every taste.—To be had only, and seen daily, at CLARK'S, the Immense Lamp Repot, 447, West Strand, ten doors from Lowther-arcade.

" Dear Sirs,.—lt hag long been on my mind to write to you on the subject of your invaluable medicine, but my time is so fully occupied I seem scarcely able to do justice to the subject. We have now tried it, successfully, for every case of illness that has occurred in our large family during the last three years, and I am thoroughly con vinced of the soundness of the Hygeian theory ; and believe that if there be a curable complaint, the Vegetable Medicine' (Morison's Pills) will accomplish the cure. In November, 1844, our three youngest children had the measles ; we called in no doctor, but, in spite of the remonstrances of friends, persevered in administering regular but small doses of the pills, and they soon recovered their usual vigour, and had no unpleasant memento of the complaint re maining. In January last, one of our little ones began with the scarlet fever, which soon extended to two others, and they were very badly indeed, covered with eruptions, their throats very sore and mouths ulcerated, but all the medicine they had was two pills each morning, Nos. 1 and 2 alternately, and one day, when one of them was very ill indeed, she had three pills extra. We did not cease to administer the medicine until all gynip oms of the disease had left them ; yet this medicine did not cost us more than 2g. 6d. " Yours truly, " ALFRED HEWLETT. " To Messrs. Morifon, New-road, London." Messrs. Mrrison hereby inform the public that no Chemist or Druggist is allowed to sell the Vegetable Universal Medicine, which is only to be had of the Hygeian Agents, who are all themselves cured patients.

The diseases in which the Cigarettes have been found so beneficial are, difficulty of breathing, tightness of the chest, spasmodic asthma, catarrhs, hoarseness, sore throats, aphony (loss of voice), ear-aches, rheuma tism of the jaws, tooth-ache, neuralgia, &c. In the first stage of consumption their beneficial effects are surprising, and in the ad vanced stages they relieve the cough, lessen the expectoration, check the night perspiration, and produce calm and refreshing sleep.

These Pills are a pure extract of camomile flowers, prepared by a peculiar process. by which all the medicinal properties of rather mure than one ounce of the flowers are concentrated into four moderate. sized pills, They are mild in operation, and have proved wonder fully successful in removing every sympton of indigestion, sick head ache, loss of appetite, giddiness, heartburn, costiveness, eruptions of the skin, and all complaints arising from a disordered state of the digestive organs ; they require no alteration of diet, and their opera tions will be found so beneficial in giving tone to the stomach, regu lating the bowels, and in promoting a healthy habit, as fully to con vince all who take them of their great utility. Persons who have suffered from indigestion for several years, have, by their use, in a few weeks perfectly recovered, which is a convincing proof that in the smallest compass is contained the largest quantity of the tonic principle of so peculiar a nature as to pervade the whole system, through which it diffuses health and strength.

Copy of a Letter from Mr. Blake, Kingscliffe, Northampton- shire:— "Kingseliffe, January 21, 1847 " Sir,—Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic Gut. I procured the best advice possible, but without deriving benefit ; and the doctors recommended me to go to the Stamford Infirmary. where I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit, and all hope of relief had ♦anished. " This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised m e to try Blair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock, of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I got rid of onc crutch. I then sent for another box, which enabled ine to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had such an attack. __"l am much exposed to cold ; but, whenever I feel symptoms of attack, I have recourse to the Pills with universal success. " I recommended the Pills to a gentleman who resides in this neighbourhood, and he has derived the most essential relief there from. and is now never without them. " You naay publish this for the benefit of those similarly afflicted. " I am, sir, your obedient, humble servant, "SAMUEL BLAKE, " Smith and Farrier." The never-failing effects of BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS in curing every description of Gout and Rheumatism, have secured to them a celebrity unequalled by any medicine of past or present times. They not only give relief in a few hours, but restore to perfect health in an inconceivably short space of time. They are equally speedy and certain in Lumbago, Sciatica, Pains in the ?lead or Face, and indeed of every Rhematic or Gouty affection ; in fact, sucn has been the rapidity, perfect ease, and complete safety of this medicine, that it has astonished all who have taken it, and there is scarcely a city, town, or village in the kingdora, but contains many grateful evidences of its benign influence.

Stu,—We note that a paragraph has been going the round of the papers, and among others was inserted in your publi cation, to the effect that 400 casks of French Vinegar had bee❑ recently imported from France, being the largest im portation yet brought from that country. In justice to our selves, we think it right to state, that since the reduction of the duty in 1844, we have each year imported Wine Vinegar of first quality from France to a greater extent. We inclose you particulars of two several arrivals, which were, inde pendent of others, of less important extent. Your notice, and that of other papers in which the before -named paragraph appeared, will oblige Your constant subscribers, W. and J. KENT and SONS. [The paragraph was copied from a Morning Contemporary. —ED. Sun.] MILAN.—At the Scala the only two operas yet given have been Attila and Prova d'un Opera Seria, neither of which has pleased very much. In the ballet we have had Fanny Elssler and the inimitable Perrot. _The theatre is crowded whenev er they appear. At Genoa, Mr. Jones, the furore basso, has created a in Attila, which is the more flat teriitg to him, as th e mus ic generally does not please. Mr. Leati, an Englishman, has made his first appearance at Pavia ' as Don Ca r l o , in Ernani, with the greatest possible success. He has a magnificent baritone voice. SOLAR SPOTS.—For a week past several groups of solar spots, in different declinations, and successively va rying their appearance, have presented a singular aspect on the sun's disc. Three of these now exhibit individual spots, on their western sides, of between thirty-five and forty thousand miles in diameter. Of these, the first, in about one degree of south declination, resembles a large parallelogram, with its long side westward, and nearly within one digit of the sun's western limb. The second, in about two degrees of north de clination, has its largest spot nearly round, which is followed, at regular intervals, by two others, varying frosts two-thirds to one-third of its size, this group being now about two digits from the sun's western limb. The third group, in the high declination of four digits, north, has its largest spots, now also neatly round, within two and a half digits of the sun's western limb. The fourth group, composed of smaller spot, is nearly on the sun's equator, and within three and a half digits of his western limb. Besides these now mentioned, one large spot has just made its appearance on the sun's eastern limb, thus showing us that the sun's inhabitants, whose existence is in ferred by analogy, are not deprived of the means of studying astronomy, which can only be done by viewing the celestial bodies through the clear sky afforded to them by means of those solar spots, which often remain for four, five, or more weeks, with little change, over the same opaque territories. onromi,—The lambing season has commenced in the eastern counties with a good promise of productiveness, though in some districts the number of stock ewes is not equal to the usual average. It is feared, however, that there will be a scarcity of food for the flocks as the spring ad vances. The turnips were affected by the severe frosts that occurred when there' was no snow on the ground to protect them; and there are now complaints amongst the farmers, r. part i cu larly in Norfolk, that the cr.p iQ rotting.

The sale of Railway Shares yesterday, by Messrs. Lamond and Co., was firmer; and as the Budget has been brought out, more confidence was displayed; still there was no great change in prices. The following are a few of the principal sales : East Indian ...

The Overland Mail has arrived with letters from the In dian Presidencies and China. The political advices are of a favourable tenour, and there was some activity in the export market, while money was easier. In British manufactures the transactions were not extensive. There has been an arrival from the Cape of Good hope also, with intelligence to the 19th of December, inclusive, from the frontier. The Kafir war was fast drawing to a close, and Sandilla and Umbala, two influential chiefs, had submitted A Quebec contemporary, adverting to the Toronto mer chants, remarks that—" The annual report of the Toronto Board of Trade expresses the views of most of the persons engaged in trade in Upper Canada. We still think they ascribe too much influence to the navigation-laws in pro ducing high freights by the River St. Lawrence. The difference of the rate at New York, Montreal, and Quebec, at the close of the last season of navigation, has been considerable. Like every other commodity, freights are affected by the demand and the quantity in the market. The difference in favour of New York " generally" is to be ascribed to these circumstances, and the costs and risks of river navigation for 400 or 500 miles, and not, as asserted, to a tax on the produce of Canada by the British Parliament in favour of British shipping. If the Upper Canada merchants find it more advantageous to deal with New York, we can hardly expect that they will give a preference to the St. Lawrence ; neither do we blame the people of the United States for their efforts to bring the trade their own way. They have done ► great deal by their canals and railways to the Great Lakes, and by their drawback laws. They have canals and railways front Lake Erie to the Ohio, from Buffalo, and Rochester, and Oswego to the Hudson, and they now are about making a railway from Ogdensburgh, at the foot of the ship navigation of Lake Ontario, to Boston. They still contemplate the enlargement of the Erie Canal, and forming a railroad to Detroit to compete with the Canada Great Western Rail - way ; the effect of all which will be to cut off the trade from the St. Lawrence, unless it is counteracted by facilitating the communications along the lakes, and the navigation of the St. Lawrence, to its outlet. One of these essential faci lities is the diminution of charges and burthens on the trade of every description; and there is every reason to belie, that efforts equal to those of our neighbours would be suc cessful, seeing the natural advantages afforded by the St. Lawren re." The Funds opened to-day at an advance to 90% and 91, but have since receded to 90% % for Consols. Much interest is felt about the new loan, to be arranged to-morrow. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 93%, but are now 92% to 93. Bank Stock is worth 203%. Exchequer Bills have been 9s. to 13s. premium. There has been some uncertainty in the movement of the operators. The Foreign Bonds have been heavy. Spanish Fire per Cents. have been worth 2434, and Portuguese Four per Cents. 34 to 35 ; Dutch Four per Cents. have been marked 92!4 to 92%. There has been an improvement in the Railway Share market.
