MARK-LANK—THIS DAY.
The weather for the last few days hat been remarkably
line with a high temperature, which will prove very ben.-
ficial Ito the growing wheat crop*. The quantity of
English Wheat from Essex this morning was one of the
smallest upon record, and that from Kent was like-
wise trifling. The demand, hawever, was far from
brisk, and, although factors were willing sellers at last
Monday's rates, some p mion of the supply remained unsold
at a late hour. Very little business was done in foreign
Wheat and Flour, and their value remains nominally the
same as before.

Barley was in short supply, which enabled factors to ob-
tain former prices. Notwithstanding only moderate as.
rivals of Oats during the put week, the trade was very
inactive this morning, and it was quite impossible to obtain
any advance in price.
Beans and Peas continue scarce, and were folly as dear
as dear as last week.

having completely terminated the delicate mission
which had been confided to him in Egypt, he had an
interview with the Sultan, and received from his
Highner an expression of his entire satisfaction at
the manner in which he had acquitted himself. Abbas
Pacha still persists in demanding the definitive ex-
pulsion of Said Pacha from Egypt. Lord Stratford
of Redcliffe had his farewell audience of the Sultan
on the lath, and was to leave on the 20th. His
audience was of the most cordial kind, and was ex-
tended far beyond the ordinary time for such recep-
tions. It is also said that, after the official audience
had terminated, Lord Stratford had a private con-
ference of some duration with the Sultan.

SUPPOSED MURDER NEAR GLOUCESTER.-111 the
midst of the bustle et electioneering, a painful sensation
has been excited in the city by the discovery of the body of
a respectably-dressed man in the Gloucester and Berkeley
Canal, about a mile out of the city. The body was brought
to the surface of the water by the swell occaaioned b the
paring of a steamer, and on being picked up it was disco-
vered that the hands were tightly tied together with a
pocket-handkerchief, the head frightfully awoUen and cut,
aad black with what appeared to be bruises. No money
or watch, was found epos hint ; indeed, the pockets con-
tained nothing hut a knife, two kej K, and a comb. The
head had no covering ; but a hat, supposed to belong to the
deceased, wee picked up in the canal near the same spot 3 or
4 days previously. The body was conveyed to the nearest inn,
when as inquest was immediately opened before Mr. Love-
grove, the coroner for Rest Gloucestershire, and, after the
examination of two or three witnesses, was adjourned to
Monday. The body is stated by two or three people to ho
that of Captain Um, late master of the City of Worcester
steamer, which runs between Gloucester and Dublin, and
who disappeared from Gloucester in a most mysterious
manner some eight or nine weeks ago. Mr. Urn had on
the day before he wee mimed transacted business and ar-
ranged his money matters with the owners of the ateimer,
Messrs. Webb, and left his vessel, which was Is ing in
Gloucester Docks, in the evening, apparently for a stroll.
A person answering his description was at a house id• ill
fame the same night in Gloucester, sad left there about
three or four o'clock in the morning. Sin
nothing has been heard of him.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
•
LAMPETII.
Tho restart is this borough appeared to be com-
Oately ended with the retirement of Mr. Harvey ; but on
Saturday last Mr. W. A. Wilkinson suddenly announced
his intention of beennitog a candidate. As Mr. Wilkinson
professes precisely the same principles as Messrs. JYEyn-
court and Williams, bis attempt to create division by ap-
pearing in the ticld at the eleventh hoer, is received with
moth dissatisfaction. There was no reason to suppose
• '

that Mr. Ilarvey could have even approached success,
and there is no chance of Mr. Wilkinson ob-
taining as many votes as would have been re-
corded in favour of his predecessor bad he gone to the
poll. The result of a careful curate, and the unanimous
testimony of fourteen crowded meetings, held in all parts of
the borough, leave no doubt that the old members will be
triumphantly supported, and a very little inquiry would
would have shown the present opponent the folly of his
attempt. A bill which was issued on Saturday evening
must create no little amusement. It calls upon the electors to
support Mr. Wilkinson because he is a county magistrate,
and because his property is valued at 100,0001. ! Mr. Wilkin-
son is surely not a man to relish the vulgar impertinence of
holding him up as a golden gorse ; but this little incident
may serve to open his eyes to the character of the parties
at whose instigation be has placed himself in a
false position. The readiness with which libe-
rals can be induced to oppose each other and
their apathy in fighting against the common foe,
are among the worst symptoms of the times—but the men
who are so indiscreet as to rush into these suicidal contests
are clearly undeserving the confidence of any prudent con-
stituency. Should Mr. Wilkinson be ill-advised enough to
go beyond the nomination, the polling day will bring a just
retribution, and although his friends may give him credit
for integrity of motive, the readiness with which he has
given credence to misrepresentations of the state of the
borough cannot fail to destroy confidence in the
solidity of his judgment. Some of his placards state that
Mr. Harvey retired in his favour, but this is obviously un-
true, as Mr. Harvey's resignation was published before
Mr. Wilkinson had consented to stand, and after the men
who have brought him forward had put up the name of
Lord Palmerston, and Mr Alderman Wire, and scoured Lon-
don in all directions in search of any one who would keep Mr.
Harvey's 160 committee rooms going at the rate of expense
which they had been enjoying daring that gentleman's con-
test. Mr. Wilkinson's party exhibits very little activity; but if
there is to be a poll, the electors must not be deceived by,
an appearance of quiescence, but bestir themselves early,
and act with sufficient energy to p a recurrence of
their foolish pranks on any future occasion.

SWITZERLAND.

BERNE, MAT 4.
The Federal Council hu commenced the publication
of the report of its administration for 1851. In the
political department, this report states that external
relations have maintained a pacific character through-
out the year, a character which even the affair of the
refugees did not alter. It alludes to the cordon
neditaire placed by the Austro-Italian government
on the frontiers of Piedmont and Switzerland, osten-
sibly to repress smuggling, but perhaps also to hinder
dangerous political communications. This step, so
close to the Swiss territory, unfortunately still
litigious and complicated in dicers points,
had inevitably produced conflicts. The coun-
cil had at first endeavoured to appease them,
but they became so alarming that it became neces-
sary to send a commissary to the frontiers of Tessin
and the Orisons. The report then alludes to Col.
Bourgeois' mission, and enters into details already
known of the diplomatic correspondence between
Austria and Switzerland. On the events of Dec. 2
in France the report speaks as follows :
A fundamental change in the constitutional system of
France having taken place in December, 1851, Bwitserland
naturally respected the right of freely choosing its con.titu-
tion, which belongs to all independent state., and which
she herself has exercised. But the developments of the
new governmental regimo of France, and its consequence,
for Switzerland, belonging to 1862, the Federal Council
must reserve for its next report what it may hove to observe
upon the subject.

-----
The Czar Nicholas and the Empress of Russia
arrived at Warsaw on Sunday evening last. The
Empress was to meet her royal brother on the Prue-
sian frontier, and accompany him to Potsdam, while
the Czar would proceed to Prague, the residence of
the ex-Emperor Ferdinand, where the Emperor
Francis Joseph would meet him.
The New Prtsesian Gazette states that Marshal
Kempen, the Governor of Vienna and Commander
of the Gendarmerie, is named Minister of the Aus-
trian police. All unions, guilds, and associations, u
well as tho entire press, will be subjected to his au-
thority. Up to the present time three various
authorities have assumed to exercise a control over
the daily newspapers, viz., the Minister of the In-
terior, the City Marshal, and the Military Governor,
so that it has often happened that for a single petty
offence an editor has been summoned to three bureaux
in one morning.
The Cologne Gazette states that the betrothment
of the Emperor of Austria and the Princess Sidonia
of Saxony will shortly take place, and be closely suc-
ceeded by their marriage.

Berlin letters mention rumours that the reigning
Duke of Brunswick is on the point of marnage,—a
fact not without importance in the politics of North
Germany. The present duke has no issue, and the
reversion of the ducal crown belongs to Hanover, the
Duke Charles, now living in England, having been
not only ousted from his states in 1830, but declared
by the Germanic Diet incapable of reigning. The
psespective aggrandisement of a large protestant
stale in North Germany is regarded by Austria with
dislevour, and any tendency to preserve the duchy of
Innswick in its present separate state, is certain to
end encouragement from the wort of Vienna.

These returns are satisfactory, as proving that the
shipping trade of the country is in a state of great
activity, in which British vessels fullyparticipate.
The returns of the vessels engaged in the coasting
trade show a steady increase.
The amount of bills drawn by the East India
Company on their respective presidencies, from the
24th ult. to the 7th inst., is as follows :

Total
The total drafts since the 7th May, 1851, are thus
raised to 2,787,1331. 13s. sd. The amount advertised
by the company as being required during the
financial year ending the 30th April, 1852, was
3,000,0001. For the year 1862-53, the amount which
the company propose to realise by the sale of their
bills on India is 3,500,0001.
The demand for bills on foreign places was very
limited to-day, owing to the continued and increas-
ing scarcity of bills on London at most of the con-
tinental bourses. No better evidence than this could
be afforded that the balance of trade with the con-
tinent of Europe is decidedly in our favour. The
importations of corn and wool from Germany for a
long time supplied the continental bourses with bills
on London and other British ports: but these have
now greatly decreased, and the void is not supplied
by extra movement in other articles of import.
Short Paris was higher to-day, closing 25.45 to 471;
ditto 3 months, 26.80 to 621. Amsterdam was in
demand at 12.2. Hamburg, coming 'chilling

PRUSSIA.

The Berliner Nachricliten states that there is a
good prospect of an agreement between Austria and

MARKETS.

COTTON.—Ltwattroot ' JULY I.—The sales of cotton
to-day are estimated at 4,000 bales, of which 600 are taken
for export, and 600 on speculation. The imports since this
day week are 40,000 bales. The market closes tamely.
Prices of American are little if at all changed, excepting the
qualities below middling, which are 111. per lb. lower.
Other kind+ unaltered. 300 hales Pernam and Maranhent
sold at Md. to 71d. ; 600 Egyptian, 70. to Md. ; and NO
Surat, Md. to Old.
MANCHZOTTII, JVLT I.—We have had rather a quiet
market in cotton yarns, with but few inquiries. In cloth
there was more business, and buyers were disposed to
operate at the prevailing quotations. Priem, both in yarns
and cloth, were quite firm.

HOSIERY AND LACE TRADES.—Norrtnottnn,
July I.—There is scarcely any change in the state of the
trade of the town for the last few weeks. The home busi-
ness is inactive in both hosiery and lace, but perhaps not
unusually so for the period. The demand for America
still continues pretty good ; the last accounts from thence
being very favourable for tho Bale of goods in lace and
hosiery. There is very little inquiry for goods for any other
quarter, but less for lace than hosiery. The price of hosiery
yarn is still high. and rather retarding export business for •
time, but fur which there is no immediate remedy. There
is some advance obtained on the price of lace yarn, but not
yet equivalent to that of the advanced price of the crop.—
Notts Journal.

MANUFACTUREB.—Bas,orono, July I.—Yarns: The
very decided advance upon wool during the past month has
canoed serious loss to the spinnen upon contracts made for
June delivery. An advance le now obtainable generally
upon yarns made from English as well as foreign wool; but
a further advance is inevitable, should wool continue to
command present rates. The shipping houses have been
doing but little of late, and should they require their tonal
supply, prices must continue to rise. P feces : There is a
full attendance of merchants at oar market to•day, and

THE DIGGLNGS.

Tho amount of gold brought by the Admiral from
root Philip is 30,840 ounces, valued at nearly 120,0001. The
captain of this vessel states that at the time of his departure
the difficulty of getting a crew was undiminished. lle was
to have sailed on the 31st of March, but was detained in the
bay till the 3rd of April, from the necessity of sending on
shore to get gold to pay his men before they would weigh
anchor. The rate of wages thus required to he paid in ad-
vance was 451. for the run. There were about 50 sail in
port deserted by their crews. The number of persons ar-
riving at Port Philip was about a thousand a week. A
piece of pure gold weighing 'Lilts., recently brought into
Melbourne, had been shipped fur Englund by the Posthu-
mous. The statement that the average production at Mount
Alexander was upwards of 12,000 ounces per week (or at
the rate of about 2,500,11001. a year) is confirmed. At Syd•
ney the quantities obtained were probably as large. The
accounts of the current scale of wages, however. are less
unsatisfactory than m.ght have been anticipated. Build-
ing, which had ceased at Melbourne, was recommencing,
workmen being obtainable at from UM. to 15s. per day.
tiltepht rds weir also being engaged .st (ram Xi/. to 401. per
annum, with rations, and many of those who had deserted
were returning.

COMMERCIAL AND MARKET&

MINCLNG-LANE-THIS DAY.

Stiian.—The public sales are progressing without spirit
to day ; the result of the week shows a fair amount of
business done, at prices which have averaged those of last
week : the principal feature of the market has been the sale
of seven cargoes of Brazil and Havanuali afloat ; the exact
particulars have not transpired, but priers are presumed to
shade in favour of the buyers. Relined quoted the
same as last week, .18s. to 60s.
CurrE.E. —The market is flat, in consequence of the un-
certainty which hangs over the chicory question; and sales
could not be made except at lower priers, which importers
and holders do Let appear willing to submit to, and nu sales
of importance have been made; the quotations of last we. k
are therefore retailed, but they must be comtdered nominal.

AMERICA.

The United States' Mail steam ship Hermann,
Lieutenant I I iggins, United States' Navy, commander,
arrived off Cowes last evening, after a passage
of twelve days from New York, and having
landed the English and French mails and passengers
proceeded on her voyage to Bremen. The llerniann
' left New York on the 19th ult., and brings time
days' later news than the last Liverpool steamer. She
brings 92 pmengers and a small quantity of specie
for Havre. The principal political news of iinerrst
by this arrival are the full details of the WhigNa-
tionalConvention,which was in session.

At Baltimore 31 ballotings had been held up t-)
the time of the steamer's sailing, but there was appa-
rently no chance of a choice.
The latest telegraphic despatches come down to
2 p.m. of the 19th, when the numbers were as fol-
lows : _

General Scott
Fillmore
Webster

A correspondent says:
The Fillmore men will hold on to their candidate so long
as a possible chance offers for his nomination, but as eon as
his ,prospects begin to darken they will very gent rally go
over to Mr. Webster. The friends of Mr. Webster, ia order
to defeat the nomination of Scott, should they ling Mr.
Webster's nomination out of the quession, will join the
Fillmore ranks. There is at present a better prospect sl the
nomination of either Fillmore or Webster than them is of
General Scott's, though the latter's friends, counting con-
fidently on help front Tenessee and Kentucky, say that he
will be chosen. The course pursued by Mr. Bolls with re•
gard to the private letters from General Scott is kokcd
upon as hurting Scott's prospects considerably. It a
rumoured that, should General Scott lose the 110MinatiOnt
when it could have been secure had there been (I more fair
representation from New York than that 'lie dele
gation will strongly protest against the noonu dams and
as not in any way binding. The Webster men held the
balacce of power, and would ultimately cast their stl'ngth
into the Fillmore scale, in which case Fillmore would be
sure to obtain the nomination.

The Temperance conventions are about to enter
the political arena openly.
The compensation to'Collius is likely to pa's the
Senate.
An arrival from lronduras brought news that the
island of Ruatan, as well as five other islands de-
pendent on Honduras Buy, bad refused to acknow-
ledge British authority, and claimed the protection
of the independent state of Honduras, shkh had
been accorded to them. Everything is represented
as being in a state of rebellion, and serious conse-
quences were anticipated.
Advises from Belize state that the mahogany crop
would be about 12,000,000 feet.
The screw steam-ship City of Glasgow arrived at
Philadelphia on the 18th ult. The Europa arrived
out on the 19th ult.
London, England, 1852-07-02

EGYPT.

The Constattteonnel states that by advises of the
lath ult. from Alexandria the government of Abbe,
Pasha had just terminated the MLitt of the settle-
ment of the inheritance of Mehemet Ali. The pri-
vate domain of Mehemet Ali had to be divided
between kis three sons, Said I'asha, Halim Pasha,
and Mehemet Ali Bey and his two daughters. The
heirs of the old viceroy demanded at first an
exorbitant sum, amounting to about four mil-
lions sterling. Fund Effendi was charged to
mediate in this affair, and succeeded beltire
his return to Constantinople in settling it.
The sum now agreed on between the contending par.
ties is 4,500,000 talaris, about 920,000/. Half a mil-
lion talaris are to be paid immediately; a million of
talaris are to be given in jewels; and the throe
remaining millions arc to be paid at intervals of six
months, within one year and a half. Several houses
of Alexandria have offered, it is said, to undertake
the payments in question ; but the Government is
expected to be able to effect the disbursement with-
out having recourse to such assistance.
The last accounts from Alexandria, of the Itch,
state that Mr. Murray, the English consul, who re-
cently lost his wife, had left for England to settle
some thruily affairs. M. de Huber, Baron de Pans,
and M. de Fork, the Austrian, Russian, and Pru-sian
consuls-general, bad arrived at Alexandria intrit
Cairo. M. Lemoyne, the French consul general, W,IS
daily expected.
It appears that the expense of the establishment
of the railway from that city to Cairo will only
cost 4,,i00,011f1fr., and that the works will be
completed in three years. As this money is only
required to be furnished as the works proceed, it
mill cause no embarrassment to the finances of the
country.

DENMARK.

The Danish constitution, as settled in Isis, has
been committed to four ministers—Count lte‘eatlow
Criminil, Count C. :Moltke, and MM. Bang and
Scheele—for revision. The ostensible reason fur
this proposed change is the necessity of adapting it
to the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein, %Inch
were in a state of revolution when the present fun-
damental law was introduced. It is, however, cx•
pected by the entire liberal party in Denmark that
the government is only seeking an occasion to
eliminate the democratic elements which were intro-
duced into the ecthstitution in the excited perind
referred to.
