YEARLY CORN CIRCULAR OF FRANCE.

We have been favoured by Messrs. T. Tipping
& Co. with a copy of the following circular, from
Messrs. P. Lacarde Aine & Co., of Nantes, dated
the 3rd instant

The export of Grain and flour is allowed for one
month more at the lowest duty from all the ports on the
western coast of France between Nantes and Bayonne.
As we do not foresee a material rise upon Wheat, it is
probable the export duty will remain the same for
December. The want of vessels, and the high rates of
freight which have been the consequence,. have much
reduced the exports of Grain for a fortnight past, which
otherwise would have been very large, as the demand is
good, and the offers from the farmers very liberal. The
first shipments of new Wheat have arrived in England
out of condition ; but during the last three weeks the
weather has been dryer, and the quality of both coast
and Loire Wheat is much improved. The weight is
good, and the colour fresh and bright. We regret we
cannot say the same for Bailey, which is yet rather damp
and brown. Barley has nevif been exported at so high
prices as this year, and the quality has seldom been
worse. Old Corn of every description is exhausted, and
millers now do not mix one-fourth of old wheat with
the new. We suggest the propriety of not keeping long
in store the flour which has been shipped from hence
since October. Beans have been bought largely, and
are nearly exhausted. White Beans and Buck Wheat,
which are very large crops this year, have been badly
harvested, and cannot be exported before the ;tinter.
Now that all our crops are secured, upon the whole we
must consider that our harvest was a very good one,
Wheat being fully an average, and some spring crops
much over. A large breadth of land is already under
wheat ; and the last few days of fine weather have
proved highly favourable to the grain sown, which is
beginning to sprout with great vigour. The current prices
now for all descriptions of grain are highly remunerative
for the farmers, and will bring to our port large supplies
from the interior. We quote Lucon white Wheat 53s to
53s 6d; Mayenne, 53s 6d; Coast red 51s 6d to 525; Saumur,

NEWS OF THE DAY.

The future proceedings of the 'French Neapolitan
squadron, and the corresponding attitude of the com-
mander of the Piedmontese fleet, have ceased to
be the subject of interest, exactly in proportion as
the chances of Francis 11. become more and more
desperate. According to the Pays, the remnant of the
Ropal army cannot be depended on ; and if this be the
case, the advisers of his Majesty are quite entitled to
declare, as it is said they have done, that " the game
is up."
• Lord John Russell's last exploit as our Foreign
Secretary consists of a private letter which he has
written to Count de Persigny, at the request of the
Lord Mayor of London, entreating the count to "waive
ceremony" and come and take his place as usual at the
banquet at the Guildhall on Friday next. It is under-
stood that Lord John's personal solicitations have not
been disregarded, but the French ambassador will avail
himself of the opportunity of justifying his unaccus-
tomed
coyness.

More recent dates from China invite the inference
that negotiations between the Chinese Commissioner,
whose arrival at Tien-Tsin we repeated Yesterday, and
the allied Plenipotentiaries were not progressing
smoothly. For our parts we are not sorry to hear that
such is the case, as we have all along clung to the
belief that in Pekin alone, and in presence of the
Chinese Emperor, can a satisfactory treaty of peace and
a termination of the enormously expensive war in which
we find ourselves engaged in this remote part of the
globe, be looked for.
The recent financial distrust at St. Petersburg seems
to have partially subsided, and the existing demand for
Russian produce, combined with the result of the har-
vest in that country, is likely to have a powerful effect
in restoring confidence.

Mr. Saunders continued his investigation on
Tuesday into the circumstances of the Road murder.
At the same time a meeting of the Trowbridge bench
took place in that town. Mr. Stock, who conducted the
recent prosecution of Elizabeth Gough, stated that the
Attorney-General was of opinion that the inquest had
not been properly conducted, and that it was a proper
case in which an application should be made to the Court
of Queen's Bench to order a second inquest under a
special writ. The magistrates concurred in such a

course, and affidavits will be immediately prepared in
support of the application.
Viscount Bury has addressed a letter to the Times
respecting the excursion of volunteers to Paris, showing
why he considers this project extremely inexpedient.
The Times, in a leader, ridicules the idea as bad in
taste and absurd in purpose.

The Board of Trade intends to institute an inquiry
into the explosion on board the steamer Tonning, when
twelve lives were lost. The seven injured men at
Yarmouth Hospital are doing well. The coroner's
inquest is adjourned for a week.
Her Majesty's Government, in reply to a communica-
tion on the subject of the funeral of the late Earl of
Dundonald, stated that her Majesty's Ministers " had no
power to grant a site for the sepulture of the noble earl's
remains in either of the national mausoleums, but that
application should be made to the cathedral authorities."
This permission "was courteously conceded by the Very
Revs, the Deans of Westminster and St. Paul's ; and it
was considered by his lordship's family that it would be
more appropriate to inter their late venerable head in
that metropolitan district which had so nobly. supported
him under unmerited difficulties, their decision was in
favour of the abbey. The result has been communicated
to her Majesty's Ministers, with whom and the public it
rests as to what further steps may be taken in the
matter. Whatever may be their determination, the
ashes of the late earl will nevertheless repose amidst
those of the illustrious dead in the abbey.
The Rev. John Coleridge Patteson, M.A., formerly of
Merton College, Oxford, son of Sir John Patteson, late
one of her Majesty's judges of the Court of Queen's
Bench, is to be consecrated as missionary Bishop of the
islands of the Pacific, at Christmas.

The convict Mullins, sentenced to death for the murder
of Mrs. Emsley, is to be executed at Newgate, on Mon-
day, the 19th instant. This is a departure from the
ordinary course, which is, that a prisoner sentenced to
death in London shall be executed on the Monday fort-
night following the conviction. Mullins was convicted
on Friday, the 26th of October, and, if the practice
which has prevailed for many years had been carried
out, the day of his execution would have been Monday
next, the 12th instant. Mullins is, therefore, allowed a
week's longer lease of life than his predecessors in the
crime of murder. The reason of. the change has not
transpired, but the sheriffs have officially communicated
to him that Monday, the 19th instant, will be the day of
his execution. .

It is stated in. the commercial circles of 'Nottingham
that the mode in which duties will be levied upon
Nottingham hosieiy goods will be ad valorem, and that
on woollen, merinos, and mixed goods, the duty will be
15 per cent. ; the same rate also upon cotton goods,
with a prospect of all these duties being ultimately
reduced to 10 per cent. Both the mode and the rate
will be highly beneficial to the Nottingham trade.
