FRANCE. telegraphic despatch on the 6th announced that the / t re nch government had forwarded passports to the two 48S ian Plenipotentiaries, and further stated : , Count must have already left St. Petersburg. Baron Prunow leaves Frankfort on the 7th, and M. de Bourquency `"fives Vienna on the same day. The Plenipotentiaries will be lodged at their respective em (Tales, Lord Clarendon residing at the Hotel Cooper in the amlYs Elysties. v i rile sittings, it is believed, will be held at the Ministry fo r h(lreign Affairs, and the period of the labou r s of the Con g ress ~.estimated at from twelve or fourteen day s to three weeks. • The Conference is expected to open about the 20th or 23d 148 t4nt. 41though Prussia is not mentioned in the list of represen res by the Moniteur, the Pays states that in case of any ' .. 2111 ge in the present situation, M. d'Alvensleben and M. de ..._TiVny, with M. Balau, would represent Prussia. Warlike preparations were still pushed forward with great I !goar at Cherbourg, and the sudden depa rture of General 4 Pinasse, in command of the third division of the French s' is nlY in the East, had created some reniark. The Constitutionnel, in a semi - official a rticle, has stated ghat the allied powers have resolved not to demand pecuniary %111 1 3 ensation from Russia, pointing out that the increased e ' 3l7ll niercial developments of France and England are sufficient 151111)ensation. AUSTRIA. t jhe preliminary protocol was signed at Vienna on the Ist, on French and English ministers having received instructions a ccordingly the day previous. At noon o n the Ist, Sir "Atnilton Seymour, M. de Bourquency, Izam Bey, and Prince Gortschakoffmet at Count Buol's, and signed t h e document. aans Bey signed first, then Count Buol, Sir Hamilton Sey !flour, M. de Bourquency, and, lastly , Prince G ortschakoff. The text of the document is as follows : In consequence of the acceptance by their respective courts or the five propositions contained in the document hereunto annexed, under the title of " Draft of Prelim inaries," the un 'eraigned, after having paraphed it, conformably to authori sation received to that effect, have agreed that their govern roonts shall each nominate plenipotentiaries, who, furnished .With the full powers necessary for proceeding to the signature of formal preliminaries of peace, shall conclude an armistice and a definitive treaty of peace. The said plenipotentiaries will have to assemble at Paris within the term of three weeks dating from this day, or sooner if it can be done. Done at Vienna, this Ist day of February, 1850. (The Five Signatures.) A telegraphic despatch from Vienna, on Saturday night, stated that Prince Gortschakoff, when signing, requested that 'Prussia should be invited to take part at the conferences. Count Buol supported the request. The Fre n c h and En g lish jib:Asters took notice of it ad referendum. The object , of Austria in laying the propositions before t he Frankfort Diet , believed at Vienna to have been with a view of giving 'Prussia an opportunity of declaring her intentions. PRUSSIA. Intelligence from Berlin states that Prussia, sooner than introduce any fresh subject of contention between the allies, -will relinquish all claims for admission to the conferenc es. The Gazelle de la Croix of the 3rd maintains that Prussia Will continue in her neutrality in the face of the conferences, and will enter into no engagements tending to support the Western powers against Russia. A fresh issue of paper to the amount of ten millions was under consideration. SPAIN. The government has presented a demand for 16,000 men for the army. This has created some sensation, but it is stated th e men a re required for the service of the Peninsula. At Valencia and in some other towns of Alicante, new attempts at disturbance have been made, but they have failed in pre sence of the energetic attitude of the authorities. SWEDEN. Letters from Stockholm express serious apprehensions on the part o► the people if the Aland Isles are allowed to be retained by Russia. The chamberlain of the King's Cabinet, Count Bijonstjerna, set out on the 29th ult. for London, to present Prince Albert With the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Seraphim. TURKEY. Advices from Constantinople of the 28th nit., state that the Sultan has approved of the plans of internal reform proposed at the Conference, involving a complete social, judicial, politi cal, and military reform, and placing the Christian and the Moslem subjects of Turkey on an equality. As the Morning Post remarks —Mahomedanism and Christianity• have been thou g ht too antagonistic to go on openly together. This is now changed. Christians are to be formal l y admitted to hold places in the civil government—not only those high posts in Which they have been hitherto employed, but they are to dis charge, evenly with Mahomedans, all public functions. The pleasure which has been agreed to and passed is, in short, a Christian emancipation act. There can be no doubt of the be nefits which this great advance in the east of Europe will con fer on the Christian subjects of the Ottoman empire. They will no longer be an excluded race, doomed to un d e r g o a feudal despotism, to languish under injustice and sudden op- Pression, to suffer wrongs which they cannot make heard, and 'injuries which rest on the conscience of him who does them. They will stand openly and straightforwardly on an equality with their Mahomedau fellow-subjects, and will be eligible, equally with them, to fill all public places, to discharge all Public functions. We believe that this measure will be of the utmost benefit to Turkey itself, just as it will be of the greatest -advantage to the Christian subjects who form, at present, so large a portion of the dominion of the Porte. It will im mensely improve the condition of the most active and intelli geatcapitalists ; it-will increase the fair and even administra tion of justice ;_it will do away, by degrees, with that insane bigotry which has been the curse, and very near the destruc tion, of Islamism ; it brings to Turkey the dawn of a new and -a brighter day than she yet has seen; it gives her the right - to a place among the nations of Europe. RUSSIA. Letters from St. Petersburg, dated the 31st of January, describe increasing confidence among the merchants and a further improvement in the rate of exchange. An erroneous announcement that an armistice had already been concluded, appears to have given a new impulse to the markets. Accord. lag to the views of intelligent persons, there could be no doubt that the Austrian intervention to bring about terms was origi nally concerted at St. Petersburg, and its success is hailed as a triumph of skill, by which the exposure of the actual condi tion of Russia and the degradation of suing for peace have been averted. Peace, it is said, is no longer a question for consi deration, but an absolute necessity for the country ; and this fact is so thoroughly recognised that every one believes it to be the firm intention of the Czar to meet the allies in a manner to make sure of the war being brought to a close. The pride of be fanatical party is, however, to be soothed by the idea that the submission, although now inevitable, need not be per manent. The famous saying of Catherine, that Constantinople, as regards Russia,is "the key of the house," is notto be banished from recollection. A period of repose must be had at any cost, and it is well to have secured it while Cronstadt and Sweaborg can still boast of impregnability. But this policy is only "for the present." No Russian, it is affirmed, gives up his views on Turkey, and " they now say they must get the English to build public works and railroads, and also to find the capital to enable it to be taken at a more auspicious time, when France may have troubles at home." Hence for the future the di plomatic tone will be Altogether in favour of the arts of peace, the cultivation of commerce, and a limitation of be empire. Immediately, therefore, on a treaty being concluded the Go vernment will grant cessions and give guarantees of interest to English companies for the construction of railways all over the country. It is the appropriateness of these designs that is said to have converted the Grand Duke Constantine to the aide of peace, and this conversion is accepted by every true Russian as a sign that nothing is really intended to be aban doned. He will not give up, they say, the duty that was im- Posed upon him when he was christened, anti for the fulfil ment of which the studies and habits of his life have consti tuted a continuous preparation. AFRICA. By the mail packet Retriever, which arrived at Plymouth an Thursday, we have received intelligence from Africa to the 234 ult. At Sierra Leone trade from the interior continues steady, notwithstanding the unsettled state of the country, and gold and other products are brought in daily in small quantities. War has recommenced on the Nunez between the Landon- Inas and the Nalons. Fernando Po was very unhealthy, business brisk. The disturbances at the Cameroous had stopped the trade there. Mr. Stanton, the surgeon, and Mr. Barry, chief officer of the Merchant ship Hantz, had died of fever at Old Calabar, where it was very severe. Oil ranged from £lB to £24, and at Ronny £l7. There is promise of a good season at Lagos. Loud complaints are made at Cape Coast Castle against the additional import duty. Mr. Benson, the newly elected President, was drily installed at Liberia on the 15th of January. The Governor of Bathurst left on the 22d of Januury for Jpalla, to conclude a commercial treaty with the king. Her Majesty's steamvessel Bloodhound, 3, Lieutenant Com mander Williams, from Lagos, arrived at Fernando. Po on the '-3d of January, for the purpose of taking the newly-appointed Consul on a visit of inspection to the Bights. The steam-sloop Hecate, 5, Commander Gordon, was at Lagos on the 7th of January. The steam-sloop Alecto,s,Commander Phillips, from Quetta, arrived at Accra on the 9th of January, with the mails. The steam-vessel Myrmidon, 3, and the Childers, 12, Com mander Hickley, were at Liberia on the 15th of January. The steam-ship Scourge, 6, Commodore Adams, was at Sierra Leone on the 18th of January, waiting for the outward mail. She had on board, besides her own crew, a number of volunters to man gunboats, and was expected to be relieved by the Salamander. The American mail steamer Gambia,from Plymouth, arrived at Sierra Leone on the 18th of January. The steamer Parana put into Madeira on the 28th of Jan., fro m stress of weather. After receiving a supply of coal, she proceeded on her voyage the same day. CHESHIRE AN]) WALES. TUE £lOO ROBBERY.— Elizabeth Farrclough, the girl charged with being concerned in the robbery of £lOO from her master's house (Captain Angell's), in Price-street, Birken head, was on Saturday committed for trial at the Knutsford sessions, a connexion having been traced between her and one of the robbers, a man named Doyle, who has absconded. A. nun= CASE which excited considerable interest was brought before the petty sessions at Overton, Cheshire, on Saturds.y. The charge was in itself a very simple one, the object being to try the whole issue of the right of the conser va;:ors of the river Dee to " take" salmon in the fence months, for the purpose of obtaining ova, for breeding, by the artificial Process. The charge having been heard at length, the bench , consisting of seven magistrates, came to a decision that " there Was no case whatever." Cris AT HOLYHEAD. — The lighting of the streets and houses with gas was inaugurated by a number of gentlemen dining together at the Castle Hotel. The Carnarvon Herald relates that, "On the day but one following the lighting, a countryman, with a sack upon his arm, leading a hone, was seen to stop at the office of the gas-works, and the fo llowin g colloquy topic place : Countryman : Is it here they sell gas?' Gasman : Yes ; what of that ?' Countryman : vaster has heard that it is cheaper by one-half than candles, and he has sent me here with money to fetch a sackful of it.' *roar of laughter was the result." NORTI:[ WALES 'MIMING COLLEGE.—The annual meeting of subscribers to this institution was held at the Chapel-rdom,. Bangor, last week, the Bishop of Bangor presiding. The. statement of accounts for the year 1855 showed a balance iii: hand of £426 16s. 4d. The committee was instructed to report upon the expediency of purchasing and adapting the two houses adjoining the Baths, at Carnarvon, for the purposes of the Training College. The committee was appointed, and a vote of thanks to the bishop closed the proceedings. WALLASBY BOARD OB HEALTII. — The monthly meeting of this board was held on Thursday. The Law-clerk submitted a report of'a special committee appointed to inquire how the interests of the parish would be affected by the Liverpool and Birkenhead Dock Bill; and a special parliamentary committee was appointed to petition the House of Commons, and take such other steps as might be deemed necessary in the matter. The subject of the ferries was afterwards discussed, and was also ultimately referred to a committee. HOLYHEAD HARBOUR WORKS. — On Wednesday, a monster blast was exploded at the quarry belonging to these works. A blast which had been formed with the labour of four or six men for the last ten or eleven months, and which required no less a quantity than six tons and a-half of powder to explode it, was let off in the presence of J. M. Rendell, Esq., the chief engineer; C. Rigby, Esq., the contractor, and a numerous staff of gentlemen connected with the works. The blast went off very satisfactorily, and it is calculated that the quantity of stone loosened by the explosion will be no less than about 60,000 tons !—Carnarvon Herald. A CHILD SCALDED TO DEATH. — An inquest was held on Friday, at the Durham Ox public-house, Jackson-street, Birkenhead, before Mr. Churton, coroner, on the body of William Lowe, aged seven years, who died on Wednesday. The deceased, who resided with his father, a labouring man, in Wrexham-street, was left in an apartment by himself, and, whilst attempting to reach something on the mantlepiece, he came in contact with a kettle of water which was on the fire, the result.being that he was severely scalded all over the body by the boiling liquid.. The youthful sufferer lingered for a few days, when death ensued. The jury found a verdict of " Accidental death." A TRW days ago, Mr. Charles Morgan, Cwrndwyfran, New church, Carmarthenshire, and Mr. James Hughes, of Treber sed, proceeded to Llanboidy, to enjoy the pleasures of a coursing meeting, and after the termination of the day's amusement got into a gig to return homewards. About eight o'clock in the evening Mr. Morgan was found lying on the road, in a state of insensibility, about a mile and a half from Llanboidy, and Mr. Hughes was lying near him, quite dead and cold. They had evidently been thrown out of .the gig, which had been overturned, and the horse had detached itself from the vehicle, and was quietly attempting to graze the frost bitten grass at the road-side. MELANCHOLY .DElTH.—Captain Maher, of the Glamor ganshire Light Infantry, who but recently succeeded Captain Gompertz in the command of the recruiting staff at Swansea, met his death on Thursday in a shocking manner. The captain went to a party on Wednesday night, and returned to his lodgings early on Thursday. About six o'clock a smell of burning linen was perceptible in the house. A gentleman nameeTomlinson, on entering Captain Maher's room, found it full of smoke, and the bed furniture on fire. When the flames were extinguished, the lifeless body- of Capt. Maher was found on the floor, and close beside him his favourite dog, also dead. It is supposed that while undressing himself on a chair the deceased, fatigued, with being up all night, had fallen asleep, and allowed the candle to fall against the bed curtains. Deceased was partially dressed, and had evidently been suffocated by the smoke. ST. JOHN'S CHURCIEYARD,CIIESTER.—IIITuesday's Gazette, amongst the orders in council, is the following :—As it seemed fit that so much of an order in council of the Bth February, 1855, as directed burials to be discontinued in the churchyard of. St. John the Baptist, Chester, from and after the Ist day of May in that year, which period has since been extended to the Ist of January instant, slmuld be varied ; it is ordered, instead thereof, that interments be wholly discontinued within the said churchyard, except in that part which is north of the church, and not within three yards of its walls , in w hi c h p art the following regulations shall be observed, viz.; that no new grave be made except in ground which has never previously been buried in; that no new grave be made within half a yard of any other grave, or except for the burial of a parishioner ; that no grave be re-opened except to bury the husband, wife, or unmarried child of those previously buried in it, nor unless such grave can be opened to the depth of five feet without exposing remains." SHIPWRECKS AND GREAT Loss OF LIFE.—A dreadful shipwreck occurred in the course of Thursday night or Friday morning, during a violent hurricane from the S.S.W., under St. Govan's Head, to the westward of Carmarthen Bay, by which a large American ship, of nearly 2,000 tons burthen, was totally lost, and bet Ween thirty and forty persons drowned. The ship proved to be the Great Duke, of New York, Captain Sampson, master, bound for Liverpool from New Orleans, and was laden with a cargo of cotton, &c., valued at £30,000. For some days previous, according to the statement of the sur vivors (only three in number, the chief mate and two seamen,) they had been unable to make an observation, the weather being so boisterous, when, on Thursday night, it came on a terrific gale from the S.S.W., and, in the course of that night, she was driven on the rocks, at the spot above named, when she was almost immediately dashed to pieces, Captain Sampson and upwards of thirty of his crew meeting with a watery grave. The coast for miles is strewn with her cargo of cotton, Indian corn, &c. In another part of the Bristol Channel another ship was lost, with all hands, (except one man.) She was the Catherine Jenkins, from Cuba, bound for Swansea, laden with copper ore. She was driven on shore on Amlwch Point, and when discovered on Friday morning was found a complete wreck. At Stranraer, on the night of the 7th, the brigantine Eugenia Widdicombe, of and from Liverpool, for Dordt, was driven by the gale into the foundation of the old pier. In a few minutes both masts fell over, and, the vessel drifting off, was dashed against a reef of rocks at the top of the harbour, and went to pieces. The whole of the crew, ex cepting one man, were drowned. WIRRAL AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT SOCIETY.—The monthly meeting of this society was held on Tuesday, at the Monks' Ferry Hotel, J. T. Danson, Esq.,.in the chair. The chairman, after a few introductory remarks, moved the follow ing proposition :—" That, as has already been recorded on the minutes of this society, the landowner who grants a lease for a term of years certainly has a right to ascertain previously that the tenant is possessed of capital, and has skill and integrity such as may warrant the trust reposed in him."—Mr. W. B. Burnham, the secretary, seconded the proposition, which, after some discussion, was carried. The chairman next moved the folloiving proposition : —" That a lease of land for agricul tural purposes should be for such a term of years that the lessee may apply to the soil all his capital required to develope its fertility, according to the best system of husbandry, and recover the whole of such capital, with a fair return for inte rest of money and for skill and labour, before the lease ex pires." This proposition was seconded by Mr. Lockhart, and was carried. The chairman next proposed the following reso lution :—" That the condition of the soil ought, with due re ference to other circumstances, to decide the length of the lease, and this scieiety is of opinion that in this district the term of twenty-one years is the one generally and justly appli cable." The resolution was seconded by Mr. B. Case. To this proposition Mr. Mills moved an amendment, to the effect, " That the rotations of culture to be adopted on the farm should regulate the length of time of the lease, and that a term suffi cient for three rotations should constitute the shortest term of lease." On a division, the motion proposed by the chairman was carried. The members then separated. GREAT SALE AT THE BIEKENUEA.D DOCK WORKS. — Messrs. Brassey and M'Cormick, having fulfilled their great contract at the 'Birkenhead Docks, by the completion of the embankment inclosing the south reserve, and the whole of the dock property having been purchased by the corporation of Liverpool, the immense stock of plant and materials with which the work has been carried on has been offered by public auction. The sale occupied the whole of last week, and the auctioneers were Messrs. Thomas Winstanley and Sons. The property comprised about a dozen valuable steam-engines, pile-driving and other machinery, railway plant, (including several hundred tons of rails,) wrought iron, engineering and surveying instruments, &c., divided into 770 lots. The auc tion was chiefly conducted in the Birkenhead Dock-yard, Can ning -street, and adjacent, but occasionally the auctioneer and bidders had to tratel a considerable distance to some of the lots. Among the conditions of sale were a deposit of five per cent. on the purchase, and clearance within fourteen days of the last day of sale. On Monday, the sale em braced property in the yard and smithy ; on Tuesday, the materials in the iron store, fitting shop, and pattern thorn were disposed of ; on Wednesday, a large quantity of wood and small tools were disposed of ; on Thursday, railway plant, travelling cranes, and steam engines in the dockyard and south reserve; on Friday, large quanti ties of timber in balks, more machinery, office fittings, and about eight or ten miles of railway (laid) extending round the works and up to the quarry at Flaybrick-hill, near Bidston ; and Saturday's sale consisted of the stock in the masons' yard, near Woodside Ferry, the surveying and engineering instru ments at the dock warehouses, and the railway waggons and machinery at Flaybrick-hill Quarry. The sale has been attended by dealers from all parts of the country, and the lots have generally brought good prices. Thursday's sale alone produced between £6OOO and £7OOO, and the whole pro perty realised about £14,000 or £15,000. The following were some of the most valuable lots : —440, a 40-horse power hori zontal engine, brought £llOO, or about £2B per horse; 447, three boilers, £210; 449, four pair mortar mills, £850; 517, thirty-horse high-pressure beam engine, £945; 518, a set of 14-inch iron pumps, £3lO. All these were knocked down to one party. It is believed that a considerable portion of the property has been bought for the corporation, and will remain on the ground. BIRKENHEAD COMMISSIONEII9. - At the monthly meeting of the Commissioners, on Tuesday, the Ferry Committee pre sented the following accounts :—Receipts for the month of January, 1855, £2,281 10s.; 1856, £2,231 Os. 11d.

The manager had been instructed to provide an assistant manager, he having represented that the increasing duties of his situation were more than he could fulfil alone. it was reported that the Woodside and Monks' Ferries Sick and Friendly Club was now in full operation, and that Mr. J. M. Craig had been appointed surgeon at a salary of thirty guineas annually, to be paid by the com missioners. Mr. Laird having sold the new steamer Em press Eugenie to government, it had been resolved that, when another new boat was required, she should be built of a lighter hull, and the engines of the Kingfisher put into her. The special sub-committee appointed to con sider the proposed amalgamation with Liverpool, presented the following report :—" 1. That the interest now due on the bonds, and to become due, up to the 31st December, 1857, be capitalized, and that no interest be paid in the meantime. 2. That the present bonds be called in, and new b onds bearin g date the Ist January, 1858, be issued in sums of £lOO each, bearing interest at the rate of £3 10s. per cent. per annum, payable half-yearly—the principal to be payable on the Ist January, 1865. That, in default of punctual payment of any half-year's interest, the interest for that half-year to be at the rate of £5 per cent. ; and . that when such arrears in any case shall amount to £25 or more, a new bond be issued for the same. 3. That the restriction imposed by the act of 1850, as to the price at which the commissioners are authorised to sell the land belonging to the township be removed, so as to en able them to sell or lease upon such terms as may be deemed advantageous. 4.

That any moneys arising from further sales of land be added to the same fund ; and, so soon as it shall thereby amount to £lO,OOO beyond the original fund of £lO,OOO, the same shall be applied in paying off bonds, by THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD ballot. That such first-mentioned fund of £lO,OOO be apli cable solely to the payment of any casualty arising to the ferry-boats, and the interest on bonds, (if not otherwise paid;) and„if theland should be thus reduced below £lO,OOO, the deficiency to be forthwith made good in the same way as the original. fund shall have been formed. 5. That the bond holders annually elect one of their body to be a commissioner, who shall be ex officio a member of the Finance Committee. 6. That a full statement of the township accounts be annually transmitted to each bondholder. 7.

B.—Our market to-day opened exceedingly dull, and some few purchases of wheat were made a trifle under Tuesday's rates, but having more buyers, the tone subsequen tl y improved, and tliough altogether we are enabled to report only a moderate amount of business, the trade closed with more firmness. Flour moves very slowly, and at rather lower rates. In barley and beans we quote no variation of value, but the transactions are very limited. Prime oats support their previous currency, but secondary samples arc easier to buy; and oatmeal has again slightly given way, the country demand continuing unimportant. Indian corn is also 6d to 9d per quarter cheaper than on Tuesday, mixed American being sold at 355 to 355 Gd; white New Orleans at 35s to 35s Gd, and Northern white 37s to 38a per 4601b5„ the business altogether light.

We must again reduce our quotations 4s to 5s per quarter on English wheat, and 6d to 9(1 per 701 b on foreign ; 2s to 3 per sack on flour ; ld to 2d per 451 b on oats • 2s per load on oatmeal ; is to 2a per quarter on barley; and is to 3s per quarter on beans. WAKEFIELD, FEB. 8.-The wheat trade has been steady to day. Millers would buy at a decline of Is to 2s per quarter from the low rates of last week, to which factors only conceded in partial instances. The business passing therefore was of a retail character. Barley and all other articles rather cheaper. WISBF.CH, FEB. 9.—There was a small show of grain of all kinds at this market today. Farmers are more inclined to hold over, and are reluctant sellers of Cleat at the rates of last week, and but little business has been done. Oats and beans no alteration. PRESTON, FEB. 9.—There was a fair show of English wheat at the market this morning, but, owing to the weather, the con dition was not good, and a clearance was only effected by sub mitting in most cases to an abatement of la per whittle from last week's prices. Irish and Scotch, as well as foreign, 2d to 3d per bushel cheaper. Flour nearly nominal. Oats a slow sale at id to 2d per bushel less money. Oatmeal neglected though offered at a further decline of is to is dd per load. NEIVCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, Fah. 9.—At the market this morning we had a much less supply of wheat from the growers, and having several seed buyers in attendance, a clearance was readily effected at an advance of Is to 2s per quarter, extra sam ples for seed commanding even a greater improvement. In south country and foreign scarcely anything was done, the views of buyers and sellers differing tuo widely to lead to bus►ness. Flour was reduced by our millers to 53s during the week, but Norfolk households could be had in quantity at rather under thatfigure to-day. Rye unaltered. Malting barley still evinces a drooping tendency and is most difficult of disposal. Malt much as before. Beans and peas in limited request, and a trifle easier. With oats we were more sparingly supplied, and upon the whole a rather firmer feeling predominated, 27s being about the value of Scotch weighing about 40Iba per bushel. Extra higher. CORK, FEB. 9.—We have passed through another week of very great depression in markets. Flour is pressed at a further Mix non of 2s. dd, per sack, and yet sales are only diminished. In foreign wheat there is still a bad selection, and prices nominal. Indian corn declined sa. per ton, and has induced a few buyers to operate. DUBLIN, FRB. B.—The panic of Tuesday appears to have sub sided to-day. The market was generally firmer for every descrip tion of grain, and in some cases an advance of 6d per barrel was realised on the best descriptions of red wheat, and dd to is on Indian corn. Barley and oats fully supported their prices. . - I White Wheat... 33s 0,1 to 39s 04 Oats, new Ds Od to 146 03 Red do ..... 3.ts Od to 38s Od Rapeseed 001 Od to 006 Od New wheat . ... 00s Od to 00s Od Oatmeal.. l4s Od to 16s Od Barley, grind... 14s Od to 195 Od Bakers' Flour 2380 d to 26s 63 Bare . 00a Od to 00s Od I Indian Corn, Oats, old oos Od to 00a 04 per 480)....33: Od to 36s Od CATTLE. LIVERPOOL, FEB. 11.—We had quite a retail trade in beef to-day, at lower rates, many buyers being induced to try the English country markets, where prices rule lower than here at present. There was no alteration in the value of sheep, but the trade was very sluggish. Number of beasts, 9,194 ; sheep, 6,970, SALFORD, FRB. 6.—The beef trade firm at former prices, and a good clearance made. Best beef, 6,1 to 7d • middling, 50 to 6d ; cows, 4d to 5 3 d ; best wedders , 6 d to 7 d ; heavy weights, 6d to 7d ; ewes, 5d to 6d ; calves, 3d to 7d. Beasts, 1,406; sheep, 5,801 ; calves, 161. DUBLIN, FEB. 7. —Small supply, with prices a shade better, especially mutton. A small market also of pigs, which were of a better finish than usual. Beef, sinking offal, 52s to 56s ; top, 60s per cwt. Veal, 7ad ; mutton, 5d to 62,1; top, 7d per lb ; pigs, 46s to 50s per cwt. PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, FEB. 9.—There is a moderate retail demand for American beef. Prices for line sorts are tolerably well supported, such being relatively scarce; but for ordinary descriptions a decline of 35 to 5s per tierce must be quoted. The late arrivals of new pork have proved of pretty good quality, and have found buyers at our quotations. Bacon moves off at full prices, as landed. With increased supplies, lower rates, however, must be expected. There is a healthier feeling towards cheese, and advanced prices have been made for tine qualities. • - - - FEB. 11.—There is no improvement in butter. Thu market continues rather quiet; the sales, however, during the last week were to a greater extent than for some time past, and generally at pretty steady rates, but in some instances sellers had to give way Is per cwt, in order to meet the views of buyers. The stocks held here are small, and all is likely to go into consumption at about the present prices. Waterford, &c., favourite brands, 105 s to 107 s; Kilkenny, Wexford, and Clonmel, 105 s to 106 s; Sligo and Dundalk, 98s to 102 e per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the 2nd to the Bth of February, both inclusive, 8,235 firkins, 28 kegs, 292 crocks, 3iB boxes, 30 barrels butter; 106 bales bacon; 6 hogsheads and 8 tierces hams ; 12 tierces and 60 kegs lard.

Various remedies, alleged infallible, were tried in vain, and for a long time I was never twenty-four hours without violent pain; indeed, I was unfitted for the performance of my daily duties. I was induced to try your Food. In less than an hour I found relief, and my recovery was very rapid. The duties which previously had become an intolerable burden, became a delightful exercise, and I have since aecomplished more labour with less fatigue than I ever expected to be able to perform. I have never had a return of my complaint. I remain, &c., D. Thomas."

JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its virtues and juices having all evaporated; while it often becomes mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for use. ENGLISH TESTIMONY. • - We give a few of the many communications we have received since we have been in England, from those who have experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must have some weight in convincing the public of its great value. 49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1. 1851. Gentlemen.—l have much pleasure in testifying to the nume rous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you require them. 1 am doubly pleased to be able to speak to the good effects 1 have seen myself produced by the Sarsaparilla; for I must confess that, although I was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its virtues, which I would not have believed it possessed, had I not seen it .-- I am, your obedient servant , JOHN JAMIXsOI4.

Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumulated corrupt matter copiously discharged, and I almost immediately obtained relief. I still continued its use for a time, and not only found relief, but a cure, and am now free from pain. I most sincerely recommend it to all who are similarly affected, Wm. HYDE. Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. - - - - - - 8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852. GENTLENIEN,—PIease send me again three quart bottles of Old Or.

London, June 10, 1852. Gentlemen,—My wife has been long afflicted with a 'nervous complaint, from which she suffered severely. Able physicians and many remedies were tried in vain, but I am happy to inform you that she has entirely recovered by using a few bottles of Old Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla. J. IL PETERSON. Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and CO. PIMPLES, BLOTCIINS, ERUPTIONS, &C. The same may be said of these as in the cure of the severer chronic maladies ; the Sarsaparilla and the Ointment will effec tually wipe off all disagreeable eruptions, and render the surface clear and beautiful. Ladies troubled with rough, pimply skin, or a gross, masculine surface, will do well to use these Medicines, if they wish clear, delicate, anti transparent complexions. Nothing can exceed their efficacy in this respect. CURE OF A DISORDERED STOMACH. Loeser Grosvenor-greet, Grosvenor-square, July 31, 1851.
