THE WAR.

The Times' Paris correspondent repeats that, of the main
fact of the complete success of General Canrobert's mission to
Sweden, there can be no doubt whatever, and affirms, on
authority—which he states, if he were free to name, few would
hesitate to accept as one of the best, if not the best—that the
general's mission was not solely the presentation of the riband
and star of the Legion of Honour, but that it was with a view
to an arrangement with the King of Sweden ; and that he has
succeeded to the satisfaction of his own government, and has
concluded a most satisfactory arrangement with reference to
the eventualities of the war.

The Paris correspondents of the Independence Belge and
the Emancipation also re-affirm their previous statements as
to the success of the mission. The latter says—" As to the
Scandinavian powers, their co-operation is a fact placed beyond
a doubt, and which cannot but be of immense importance when
we consider that Sweden alone can put on foot an army of
60,000 good soldiers, and furnish 200 gun-boats."
The Times' Paris correspondent also repeats his assertions
positively, that an autograph letter was addressed by the King
'of Prussia to the Emperor Alexander, urging terms of peace.
The Ost Deutsch Post states that prodigious exertions
.were being made to render Nicholaieff impregnable.
In different magazines in the Crimea are provisions for
right months.

THE FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET.
The English Funds opened steadily, and an advance of
nearly 1 per cent. immediately ensued.; money purchases
were in excess, and the decline in the Corn Market probably
assisted the rise ; later, however, there was less firmness, and,
before the close, prices showed a partial reaction. Railways
generally .supported ; Caledonian Stock freely pressed, and
the price receded 1 per cent. Canada Railway Shareabetter ;
Eastern Counties good. Land, Bank, and Foreign Stocks
are more active, and close with an upward tendency.

LONDON CORN MARKET.—(From Kingsford and Lay's
Circular.)—The supply of Wheat from Essex and Kent mode-
rate, but having the addition of that left over from last week,
the whole made a fair show, and the condition being generally

wretched, the great bulk remained unsold to a late hour,
although offered at a decline of 3s. to 4s. per qr. The few
sales in Foreign were at former rates. A good supply of
Barley, which met a slow sale at a decline of fully 2s. Beans
and Peas 2s. per qr. cheaper. Oats dull, and last week's rates
barely supported. No alteration in the value of Town-made
Flour, but Country 'Marks 2s. per sack cheaper.
