SUPPLEMENT TO THE oof :-)tartbarb. SECOND EDITION. STANDARD-OFFICE, JUNE 6, Two O'CLOCK, P.N. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET.—Tnis DAY. Our fresh arrivals are exceedingly light ; except a few thousand quarters of Maize, we have nothing in from America the, past seven days. The trade has been firm since Friday, with a fair business in Flour, large transac tions in Indian Corn, and the Value of each rather higher. At the market this day there was a good consumptive demand for Wheat, Flour, and Indian Corn. Wheat sold steadily at the rates of this day week ; Flour may be quoted 6d. to ls. per barrel dearer ; and Indian Corn was ls. per quarter in advance. In other articles there was apparently little doing, without alteration in prices. [BY ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.I THE WAR. VIENNA, MONDAY -- E V ENING.-it is reported, from Russian sources, that, on the 29th, 30,000 Russians made a fresh and vigorous attack on Sili stria, but were repulsed, with the loss of 3,000 men. The eldest son of Count Orloff was among the slain. The troops are to be in their positions on the Galician frontier by the 19th instant. Provisions have been made in Galicia for 120,000 men and 40,000 horses. The immense magnitude of the armaments of Austria in Galicia and Transylvania, and the accumulation of stores and provender for troops in the field appear to an nounce that before many weeks have elapsed the conduct of that power will leave no further room for uncertainty or distrust. Odessa letters repeat that no blockade was considered to exist. A Times leader says, according to a Bucharest despatch, of May 31st, the Russians had withdrawn out of gunshot range of the walls of Silistria, and it was thought some weeks would now elapse before the fortress could be re duced. The Times considers it improbable that Omar Pasha and the allied generals contemplate an immediate advance, unless the late events before Silistria should have altered the arrangements made at Varna. The position of the Russians becomes more uncertain and perilous on their flank and rear. ATHENS, MAY 28.—Canaries refused to enter the new ministry. The arrival of Mavrocordato is expected with impatience. There was a report in Paris yesterday that the Swedish squadron had received orders to combine its force with the allied fleets in the Baltic, and that the Swedish minis ter at St. Petersburg had demanded his passports. PARIS, MONDAY. - All securities lose considerably. Funds closing 74.95, and 994. The Times city article says, it appears the recent rise in Peruvian stock has been caused by an attempt on the part of the government of that country to induce the English bondholders to promise £1,000,000 sterling of home debt, lately created under circumstances of the most flagrant character, to be introduced on the London market, in consideration of their being allowed to participate in the proceeds of an extra sum of 15s. per ton put upon the price of guano. It seems, however, hardly possible that the new device should meet with more success. With regard to the complaint of the scrip for the new bonds being in inconvenient amounts, it appears the issue was made, after full consultation, with the leading persons in the market, and in express conformity with their wishes. When the scrip receipts are exchanged for bonds, the latter will be in various amounts, analogous to those of Exchequer Bills. LONDON STOCK & SHARE MARKET. —This DAY. NOON QUOTATIONS.
