REVIEW OF THE CORN TRADE.

(►ro. the Nark Lane Swam.)

The early part of the month wee favourable for
field labour, and farmers were busily occupied on the land
Up to the clue of last week. The immense quantity of
rain which has dna fallen has however, put a total stop
to ploughing, sowing, &e., and these operations (previously
somewhat backward for tho period of the year) mast now
be deferred for a time, as it will be impossible to work the
laud advantageously until it shall have been freed of super.
aeons moisture. The wet weather must be considered as
very unfavourable In another respect, inasmuch as the effect
of so humid a state of atmosphere cannot be otherwise than
detrimental to the condition of all kinds of grain in suck;
and there Is, consequently, little chance of any improve-
ment taking place in the quality until an interval of frost
shall have been experienced. Under these circumstances
farmers will not, we thick, be disposed to thresh freely at
present, and those who ere in a position to wait will, no
doubt, do so • but many, we fear, will not have the option,
limey certain of obtaining more remunerating rates fur
their produce after It shall have been hardened and im-
proved by frost.
The tone of the wheat trade has not varied materially
sines our last; the firmness we then noticed has in no way
diminished ; but, on the other hand, there has been no in-
crease of activity. The opinion that prices will undergo a
moderate rise has gained strength; still purchasers have
not deemed it prudent to add materially to their stocks,
and it has, consequently, been very difficult I. establish any
advance. The arrivals of breadotufa from abroad have
rather exceeded expectation, which has certainly tended to
cheek the upward movement.
A large fleet of vessels, laden with wheat and Indian
corn, arrived oil the coast in the early part of the week
from the Mediterranean and Black Sea, and the receipts of
flour from America into London, Liverpool, he., have also
been considerable ; besides which, a fair supply of wheat
has come to hand from the continent of Europe. The
greater part of the Black Sea supply has been ordered to
different porta in Ireland, where the want of wheat and
Indian corn appears to be very urgent. Tito shipments
of Hour from Liverpool to the sister isle also con-
tinue, and this extra demand has absorbed a large propor-
tion of the supply which would otherwise have some upon
the English markets. That the cultivation of wheat in
Ireland must have lessened very materially cannot be clues-
doped, and the probability is that she will continue to re•
quire considerable importations of that article, a circum-
stance which is likely to have a material influence on the
future range of prices here.
For the moment there is no want of foreign wheat on
this side of the Channel, but our stocks are nut particularly
heav) ; and as it cannot be denied that the soft condition of
one new wheat will render an unusually large mixture of
old necessary, a falling off in the arrivals from abroad would
be soon felt. The quantity on passage from the Baltic is
not now very great, and as prices there are relatively higher
than in this country, the shipments will in all probability
be comparatively unimportant till next spring.
Freights and the premiums for insurance ate rapidly
rising, which must throw impediments in the way of con-
signment: or the execution of the orders which may be sent
out on British account. It appears, therefore, that after
what may still be in the way from ports east of Gibraltar,
and America, shall have reached our shores, we may calcu-
late on a break in the regularity of the foreign supplies ;
and we certainly see no reason to expect lower rates than
those now current ; on the contrary, we feel tolerably well
satisfied that the valueof wheat has been at the lowest for
the present, and should certainly not be surprised to witness
a moderate advance.
It may be regarded as a somewhat singular fact, that the
upwardoheinmgodvemeom iontwtiocrildthluseve co,“mtmiesnereedpoirntetllouto tear::
given the most favourable results. This has, nevertheless,
been the case thus far; business having for some weeks past
been much more active in [kedged, Ireland, and also in
some of the northern markets in England, than in the
south, where the mischief occasioned by the unpropitious
weather in August was unquestionably must severely felt.
The only way 311 which this can be accounted for is by the
pressure of foreign supplies the greater part having been
directed to those places at which the wants would, it was
presumed, prove the greatest.
Business at Mark-lane has maintained a decidedly firm
tone, but the supplies of mat articles have kept pace
with the demand, and prices have undergone little or no
change
The arrivals of wheat coastwise have been small, only
4,935 qrs. having been reported during the week ending
this (Saturday) evening.
The show by land-carriage samples from the neighbour-
ing counties has been equally unimportant ; the Essex and
Kent stands being nearly bare en Weanerday, and only a
few small lots being exhibited on Friday. The offers from
Lincolnshire Cambridgeshire, and that neighbourhood,
have also Win small, prices having lately risen there fester
than with us. . . .

The millers have throughout the week acted cautiously,
and, though the tendency of prices has been rather upwards,
no quotable advance on last Monday's currency has been
established.

—Foreign wheat has come forward rather more liberally
thea expeeted, 29,906 qrs. having been received at this port
daring the week. A small portion of this supply has gone
direct to millers, and the remainder into the hands of those
who are not disposed to make any surifice to sell from on
board .hip. There have, consequently, been no pressing
sellers; but the demand hu, on the other band, been of •
retail character, buyers having in (general declined to take
more than they have needed for immediate use. In this
position of admire, quotations have undergone no change,
and we consider that purchases might have been made on
as favourable terms for the buyer on Friday as earlier in
the week.
The arrivals of wheat off the coast from ports east of
Gibraltar have been large of late. Many of the cargoes
were, however, disposed of before they reached our shores,
and several have been height for Irish account. Pre-
vious prices have, notwithstanding the liberal character of
the supply, been exceeded in some instances ; and for the
cargoes remaining on sale very full terms are demanded,
say Foliate Odom 38.. 9d. to 395. 64., and 421. to 42a. 61.
for the finer descriptions.
The inquiry for town-manufactured flour has not been
particularly active, but the top price has been steadily sup-
ported, and fresh country marks have brought quite as
mach money as previously. From America we have re-
ceived 36,000 barrels; having, however, in addition to a
good consumptive demand, had some inquiry from parties
intending to held over ; former rates have been well main-
tained. Moderately good qualities have sold at 21s. to 225,
and extra superfine at 28s. to 24r. per barrel.
There was not • large display of English barley either on
Wednesday or Friday, and the demand for fine malting
sorts being active, very full terms have been realised for the
best qualities. Secondary sorts have not sold so freely, but
in the abeam of supplies of importance, quotations have
been steadily maintained. The market is, and has for some
time been, nearly bare of good old grinding barley: the
only kind of which any quantity remains in warehouse is
Egyptian. The demand for Danish and similar sorts of
barley has been lively ; and Egyptian, owing to the scarcity
of other descriptions, has been taken to a fair extent, at full
terms.
Malt has been held with great firmness, and needy buyers
have experienced some difikulty in purchasing at former
rates, • small advance baring berm pretty generally in-
sisted on.
The arrivals goats cemeteries hays been small, but from
Ireland 25,000 quarters, and from abroad 8,000 quarters,
have been received ; there has eeusequently been no scar-
city of this_ paia. The demand was not particularly Wive
either cm Wedaesday or Friday, the principal dealers pay-
ing late rates with more or less relartanee. There sou,
however, not the slightest dispoddon on the part of factors
to give way, and we consider that prier wt ea quite as high
at the close as they were In the beginning of the week for
fresh old ewe.
Beano have net maenad wash attention, and their value
has undergoes no change.
Peas of ell eons have commanded menthe rates.
In Indian earn a large helices, has been done, and pe-
eler's prises haulm many uses been exceeded by Is. per
gutter.
FOREIGN.

The advicee from abroad are of mach the suet character
this week as before. The tendency of inioes appears to
have continued upwards at all the leading Deltic ports,
and purchases in that quarter cannot now be effected at
anything like prime to have a margin for profit in our
markets.
Dane( letters of the MU October inform us that some
further purchases of wheat had been made there at very full
terms, and that buyers bed bad to pay as meek as 44.. to
44e. 6d. per muter Ikea onboard for flee hlghlrelzed quali-
ties. eats hod heleght eserespostling rates.
Vessels were seance, sod freight@ • portion of the
wheat sold was believed to ban bola taken on amount of
the parties who have lately been operating In the Dutch
markets.
Konigsberg advice., of the 26th ult., state that a lively
demand had been experienced there, and that surly
everything which had come forward bad met a ready
sale, at advancing prices. High mixed wheat, old and new,
weighing 6141 u. per bushel, had sold at 425. Bd., and new
at 445. per qr. free on board, and other sorts at correspond-
ing rates. Stocks were small, sad the supplies from the
grower., which had been tolerably good the week before,
hisillr:jaan fallen off. Of spring core scarcely any had ap-
p . For white peas Rs., and for beans 30s. per v. free
on board had been obtained without difficulty. Freight to
London or Hull was 3s. 9d. to to Scotland 3.. 6d. to
94., to the west eout 4.. 9d. to 65., and to the Channel
4.. 6d. per qr. for wheat.
From Stettin we learn that the supplies of grain had sot
kept pace with the demand. A disposition to speculate
in grain evidently prevails at that place, and stocks being
small, prices are high there, say 40s. for fair red Pome-
ranian wheat for shipment In spring; and for d 2 lb.. new
barley equal to 20.. per qr. had been veld for local oossamp-
don.
At Rostock rather large transactions appear to bare
taken place in wheat, partly for immediate shipment to
London. Holders bad been encouraged therefore to ask
higher terms, and it had become impossible to put fine
qualities on goard below 41s. per quarter. The deliveries
fram the growers had increased, hut the demand had been
sufficiently active to take off all that had been brought
forward.

At the near ports quotations have, it appears, been well
supported. llawourg fetters of Tuesday report a good
steady Mummies in wheat at full terms, say for new red
upland, on the spot, weighing Gil lbs. per bushel, 425. 6d.
lo 425. 9d., and old red wheat of 61 lb.. weight, free on
►eard, at Lower Deltic ports, at 40s. 61. to 41$. Gd. For
sprhig delivery higher ratee were asked. The demand for
barley had continued active, and for new Danish 235. per

quarter had be truly offered, bet sellers had not felt
disposed to accept below 235. 3d. to 23e. 6d. New 38 lbs. to
39 lbs. oats, from the Danish islands, had found purchaser,
at 15s. to 16e. per quarter, free on board.
From Holland we learn that the same parties whose pur-
chases created so great a sensation some time back, had
again begun to buy wheat for shipment to England, at
prices out of all proportion to those current here. At
Amsterdam equal to 395. 6d. per qr. was paid on Monday
' fur red wheat of 56Ibs. weight, and 48e. 6d. per qr. free on
board for 60 to 601Ibe. mixed Dansig. At Rotterdam some
sales were also made at high rates, the buyer being, it was
believed, the same as at Amsterdam. Oats keep up in
price in Holland, and the latest adviees from Groningen
quote 40 to 421bs. Polands 17s. to 17s. 9t1., and 55 to 3718 e.
black teed 14s. ld. up to 15s. per qr. free on board. Vessels
were scarce, and freight rising.
From Franco we have nothing new to communicate;
prices being relatively higher there ,than with no, no ma-
terial supplies from thence can be calculated on. At the
chief markets in the Mediterranean a moderate extent of
business hu been done in wheat and Indian corn, at full
prices.
The most recent accounts from America do not report
any material change in prices. At New York, on the 2let
ultimo, good shipping brands of Flour No. 1 were Ohtani.
able at 18. s. Bd. to 19s. ld., and pure Genessee at V.. Id. to
21s. 10d. per brl. The expos is during the precedinst fort-
night had amounted to 17,871 brio. ll•ntr, and 2)5,650
bushels oc,lndian corn to Liverpool; 26,595 brls. il.tur, and
35,674 bushels of wheat to London.

PLYMOUTH AND TAVISTOCK RAILWAY.

A general meeting of the parties interested in this
proposed railway was held at Plymouth, on Friday, to ra-
ceira a report from the provisional dirtetors ; Mr. 1. in
the chair.

The report' stated that tke tint publication of their pros-
pectus was on the 25th of May, and that of the rival com-
pany, called the South Devon and Tavistock Railway Com-
pany. on the bth of July. The shares were commenced to
be allotted on the 3Uth of July, and in cousequeece of the
rival scheme being in the field, • portion of the allottece
had declined to pay the deposit, but the direcore were
neither surprised nor discouraged at this result. The at-
tention of the directors had been called to the enlergent.nt
of the scheme by en extension of the proposed Pis mouth
and Tavistock line to OkeLamptou, North Tawton, and
Coleford, where it will form a Junction with the North
Devon line, and will open a new communication with Easter
and the north of Devon. To the residents of Tavistock and
its vicinity it states that such a line will be of great ad-
vantage, by bringing them 30 miles nearer to Exeter. In
conclusion, it states that the extension scheme is c i:culated
not only to insure success, but will also confer ineolculable
benefits upon the port of Plymouth, as well as on the whole
of the north of Devon. The directors therefore recommend
that the present scheme should be merged into one for a
railway from Plymouth to Eider and Barnstaple, via
Tavistock, Okehampton, and North Tawton.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said he held is his hand a list of nearly all the landowners
uawnho had promised ntinsedemtonntadkesat6beaavnalue
of Ter• the
proposedlanel lice,shares d many bed
for additional shares. There was only one dissentient land-
owner on the line between Plymouth and Tavistock, and
they impeded eventually to obtain his anent. The traffic
return' they had reason to expect would be above 18,0004.
Mr. J. BATLY stated that the population of Tavistock bad
increased considerably during the last few years, in conse-
quence of the mining operations in its neighbourhood; and
he congratulated the shareholders on the prospect of having
a cheap and useful line of railway.
The report was adopted, and after • short conversation
the meeting separated.

SPORTING.

TATTERSALL'S—MoN DAT.

A heavy, and if we may speak from the complaints that
reached us from all quarters, a very unsatisfactory settling
on the Newmarket races, prevented any regular ill:Mille=
on future events. All that we could mike out on the
Epsom Autumn Handicap was that The Varmint, Tested,
and Hobbie Noble were nominally at 6 to 1, and that 700
to 60 and 1,200 to 1011, were laid against West Australian,
and 3,000 to 100 against Pharold fur the Derby.
Nothing farther has been done in the Trinket affair.

FATAL SEWER ACCIDENT.—TWO MEN KILLED.—.-
Yesterday afternoon, shortly before four o'clock, a deplora-
ble accident occurred upon the premises of Messrs.
Williams, the soapinskers, of Compton-street, Goswell-
road. For some days men have been at work connecting
the new drain in the street with Messrs. Williams's pre-
mises. Abutting on the latter stand a number of small
dwellings, workshops, stables, sheds, de., the defective
drainage of which has for a long time been a nuisance to
the whole neighbourhood, and against the back wall of
Messrs. Williams's premises are several if the cesspools.
The men on Saturday had, in carrying back the new drain,
which has been dug a considerable depth, come in close
'proximity to one of these places, as was evidenced by the
damp oozing through the mould, and they were told to be
most careful how they proceeded in their operations. Not
any danger being apprehended the operations were pee.
ceeded with, avoiding the direction which had threatened
to break in. They continued their work until the after-
men when some water was seen pouring along the bottom'
of the drain, the men being out of it at the time. Upon
making this discovery one of the men, although warned
I. be careful, descended the ladder, but had not got far
down when, overcome by the dreadful stench that
was emitted, he fell into the drain quite senseless.
The poor fellow who stood next to him on the
bider instantly descended, in the hopes of rescuing him,
arid he in the same manner fell wakeless. His brother,
elm woe standing by, attempted to dWicend, having a rope
to wise Islas; but he had not got far down when, from the
same emu, he fainted, and was drawn up by those above,
and heed to be in a dying state. He was instantly taken
to a pahlhhouse opposite, and emedical gentleman sent for,
who had him put to bed and every attention paid to him,
but all efforts to restore him to consciousnessfatled. Whilst
this was going on a fourth man essayed to go down, but in-
study became quite insensible ; and, upon being got out,
was, by the advice of the medical gentlemen who were pre-
sent, sent in a cab to Saint Bartholomew's Hospital. After
a lapse of about a quarter of an hour, the intensity of the
vapour having somewhat abated, the two poor fellows who
first wont down were got out quite dead. The one that
had been taken to the public-house having somewhat reco-
vered, but still in a state of insensibility, was placed upon
a bed and cionteyedlo the hospital.
DARING ROBBERY IN MONMOLTREUIRE.— Off
Wednesday evening, the 21th ult., between fi and 7 o'clock,
the dwelling-house of Mr. George Window, of Lansabbsth
Farm, in the parish of Llanover, which adjoins the seat of
Bir Benjamin Hull, M.P., and is three miles from the town
of Abergavenny, in the county of Monmouth, was entered
by six men, five of whom were armed with bludgeons, and
the sizth with a large pistol. Four of them had handker-
chiefs tied over their faces, and the others used no disguise.
A niece of Mr. Window had charge of the house, Mr. and
Mrs. Window being absent on business; and this young.
lady, on encountering the ruffians in a passage of the;
house, succeeded in escaping, and ran to the dwelling of the
Roy. J. Evans, in the immediate neighbourhood. The
rev. gentleman, on learning from her that thieves had en-
tered her uncle's house, proceeded thither, and found that
the male and female servants had been made prisoners, and
were placed in a corner of the kitchen, with their faces to
the wall. The robbers immediately pounced on the rever-
end gentleman when be made his appearance in the house,
and having deprived him of his money, amounting to about
201., placed him also in the corner with their that
hatch of prisoners. The next person captured was a
Mr. Prince, the village miller, who, observing that some-
thing unusual wu going forward on the premises, looked
in for the purpose of satisfying his curiosity, when he was
instantly collared and forced to join the others in the corner.
In the meantime the cry of " Thieves " had been raised in
the village, and three men, a farm servant, sn under gar-
dener of Sir B. Hall, and the village harper, proceeded to
the beleaguered house, but they were instantly seemed,
and compelled also to stand in the corner with their facie
to the wall. Three of the robbers were employed in guard-
ing their numerous prisoners, while the other three ran-
sacked the house in a leisurely and effectual manner,.carry-
ing off a considerable quantity of property of a =smile,
nevus description. They remained in the house about half
se hour. The fellows are believed to be Irishmen and
navigators.
lltearrutT or A DEAD BODY.--On the 30th
September, 1842, a foreign lady and two porters called at
Messrs. Brownlow, Pearson, and Co.'s wharf, Iligh.street,
Hall, and left there a large chest, which was directed to be
kept until called for. It has remained there ever since
until Friday last, when the Messrs. Brownlow, being about
to remove from the premises, the cheat in question was
opened, and a wooden coffin found in i - the '
inscription, " Sasebo) Walter Sourin, c
aged nine menthe and twenty-five d
was deposited a leaden coffin, and wi,
