DENMARK.

The Danish Popular Chamber, in its sitting
of the 47th, voted, after a long and stormy discus-
sion, an article of the Conscription Act, declaring
that the troops raised in Denmark should never form
part of the German Federal Contingent. This ram-
lotion is in direct contradiction with the principle of
the unity of the monarchy, which has lately been se-
muted at so great cost.

AMERICA.
ARRIVAL OF THE NIAGARA.
LIVERPOOL, MONDAY.
Shortly before 12 o'clock this forenoon the British
and North American Royal Mail steam-ship Niagara,
Capt. Stone, arrived in the Mersey from Boston and
Halifax, the former of which ports she left on the
10th and the latter on the 12th inst. The Niagara
brought 38 passengers and 15,000 dollars in specie.
The Niagara experienced very strong easterly
winds during the greater part of her passage, which
occupied 11 days 18 hours mean time.
The Royal Mail steam-ships Africa and Canada,
hence with the mails, had arrived—the former at
New York on the 4th, and the latter at Halifax on
the 11th inst.

The intelligence by this arrival is three days later
than that brought by the Washington.
We learn from Nassau, N.P., that the cholera still
lingers upon the island. The mortality has been
very great.

▪ Advice' from California had arrived per the Star
of the West to the 16th October, two months later

Westing. Great excitement existed among the
hankies and merchants of California, in consequence
of the adoption of the Treasury order refusing the
ressipt et Assay ingots in payment of the public dues
—4 sesseere which m calculated to operate injuriously
NNW dill interests of the mercantile climes. A pub-
lie muslin of the merchants was held at the Ex-
change, in San Francisco, for the purpose of protest-
Mg against the action of the Treasury department,
and a vigorous discussion took place, in which ex-
Governor Smith and Hon. T. Butler Xing, collector
of the port, assumed an active part. Mr. Hum justified
his action on the ground of adherence to
orders from the government, which he did
not feel at liberty to transgress. He made

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH AND FOREIGN
CORN TRADE DURINGI TUE PAST WEEK.

(From M XOt•Lot SzprrU.)
BILITISII.

No material change bas place in the position
of the grain tr .d • sieve our last, nor has anything ocr tarred
esleuleted to pro Int • any alteration in i public opirai re-
electing the protest?... future course of peseta. Considerable
craihd.-nee is telt by bold. is of wheat, bat buyers have net
select m 'niftier: I any desire to parcasse more than they
brie deemed suilkiest to provide tor immediate neceseitiee.
The supplies have conoequently about kept pace wish the
demand. and it has been dilikult to esiabliab any ukases
en previous prices. The tendeney ha., havrever, been de-
cidedly uperarle, and it is tolerably certain that if the arrivals
from abroad (which have hitherto been on a liberal scale)
should fall if seateri .11y, and the principal ports be freed
from the prewar* of deign, prices would improve. The
question 5... adore is m, will, any rho es
in the impet it ions take
place The anew,' is more difficult than would at first
sight • 'par. That it lebuld not par to buy abroad sad
at the 1.341, LAW current at our markets is quite certain ;
but pa:chain Lave been made at eta. n of ports on the con-
tain-at tar mantis. post, for shipment to England—princi-
pally for Load in—at prices considerably higher than those
obtaineble here. These operations appear to have been
carried on without any regard to profit or loss, and it is
akciefore imposeible to jailers whether they will or will not
be coat n red. What the object iu view may have been is a
mystery, but that the effect has bei n to depress prices cannot
be donated. We are, however, now approaching a period of
the year when natur_l °tweet's are opposed to shipments
from thc nr et hens ports. Winter had already set in with some
asiv.ri.y in Itassi.i, by the last accounts; and the pro-
bability is ilia. the navigatiun of the Baltic will be soon im-
peded by ice. We may sbo sprit to hi ar of the clooirg of
the iala: it navigation of the American canals and water-
course., and from the Black S.:a shipments usually cease
ere Has time. Unless', therefore, the weather should
prove very mild and open, further foreign supplies of con-
sequence cannot reach us after those still ass passage shall
have Conir to hand, and we are ineliaed to agree with those
who calculate on a moderate rt., is quotations during the
winter. The country markets haring been less plentifully
supplied than Landon, base taken the lead in the upward
tcodeney, and shirt prices hate remained stationary, er
nearly so. at Slerk•lane, they have crept us in other
parts of the kingdom. The Oh et of this is likely to be
that of checking supplies of home-grown wheat to the
metropolis, and draw lug buyers of foreign from different
quarters.
At Liverpool both wheat art flour have for some tins.
commanded better prices than in Landaus, and this week a
farther advance has been establis-ed there. On Tacsday
the former article was quoted 'A. to 3d. per 701 be., and
fl tar fully Is. per barrel, higher than on that day week.
Oa Friday three was again a good demand, and a further
rise of W. per 701 h.., and Gil to 9d. per barrel, was realised.
Shipments of wheat, flour, and Indian corn to Ireland con-
tinue, which, with a good local demand, has imparted con.
siderahle activity to business at Liverpool for some weeks
past.
The advises from Yorkshire report a large consumptive
damned for wheat; and thoeuili this seems to bate been
freely met by sclera,
aced, what had been need . At Hull, as well as at Leeds,
prices of both new and old wheat were quite as high on
Tuesday as on that day sennight. At the first named pl-ea
an arrival of 5,000 barrels of superfine American flour bad
tam place, which had found buyers at 265. per barrel.
The reports tram Bristol. Birmingham, and that neigh-
bourboad, are likewise of a tiers tone, and an advance of Is.
per qr. was established at the last-nanma place on Thursday.
The weather has continued changeable ; there was some
appeSt.lOte of improvement on Thursday, and on Friday
morning there was a white frost, but since then we have
bad a ri torn of wet.
Field labours have been quite out of the question, and it
Is now tolerably certain that wheat sowing will not be com-
plete) until a much later pi rind than in ordinary WWII..

wet must hay • had on the cJo titian of the wheat of this
year's growth,
expected;been itits aof worked far better than could have
very large mixture dhas
been
latter
rendered neeemary, and the atoelu of the oi
in granary
bate therefore not accumulated so much as, from the liberal
character of the supplies, might have been expected.
In Scotland old foreign wheat appears to be wanted ; and
at Edinburgh, on Tuesday, a large business was done, at an
advance of le. per qr. At Glasgow prices were also higher
than on that day week.
Tim wants of Ircland are unquestionably great; and, not-
withstanding an excellent crop of oats, the shortness of the
produce of wheat, and the extensive Ices of potatoes, will
cause the sister isle to require continued supplies of bread-
stuff. front this side and from abroad.

The /minds of wheat coastwise into the port of London
have again been on a limited s-ale this week, and the quan-
tity brought forward at Mark-lane by land-carriage samples
from the neighbouring counties has been very small. The
milers having, however, (-inducted their operations with
extreme e salami, the supplies have proved sufficient to satisfy
the demand, and factors have been unable to succeed in so
tablishine any advance on previous prices.
0a Wednesday the transactions were quite unimportant,
and tho bu-isesv done on Friday war not by any means en-
tensivc ; but sellers generally manifested greater confidence
on the Uttar occasion, owing to the continued rise in quo-
tations at the principal provincial markets.
Most of the shipments of Wheat from Lincolnshire, and
that neighbourhood, have, for some weeks last, Wen

From abroad we continue to receive pod menthes, and
6,000 qrs. have I. en received during the week ending this
(Saturday) evening. Importer shave, however, meelfested no

FOREIGN.
Tho somewhat firmer tone of the adriees from
hence Appian to have had more or less imamate abroad,
and holders on the Coidineut seem to reckon with mine
confidence than ever on an eatenslve British demand during
the winter and spring. This Ilea is very generally enter-
tained at the leading Baltic ports, and paces have for some
time past been creeping up iu anticipation.
Letters (runs Danzig, dated Monday last, state that frost
had been eaverienceil during the preceding e eek, end it
was therefore deemed probable that further supplies from
the interior might be cut ntf. About 2,800 qrs. wheat had
been bought the week before, for Which full prices had been
realised—•.v .12. to 41s, for flue mixed and high mixed,
awl up to •Itie. tor a superior parcel of the bitter. Charters
had been dosed at se. 6.1. for Lundell, and Q 5.3,1. for
Belfast.
At Korth...Owns, on the 15th November, wheat was in
lively request, and the sentiency of prices was deer .edly
upwards. The best qualities of new were quo:, d 440. fur
immediate, and 46c. Gal. are qr. free ou board for spring
shipment. Of barley and oats no supplies bad come for- '
ward, and beans and peas were very scarce. The former
article was quoted 355. Gel., and good boiling peas could not
have been bought below 325. 6d. per qr. free on hoard.
Veval. were %seated, and freights were advancing: for the
cast coast 50., for the channel ss. fal., ant for the west coast
Gs. per qr. had been paid.
Stettin tideless of Tuesday, inform us that a lively specu-
lative demand fur wheat delivereb:e in spring had been ex-
perienced, and that as leech as 425. 64. per qr. had been
paid for tine GI to 62110. qualities. For immediate ship-
went prices were nut so high, GI to Gt lbs. Pomeraeian and
Marls* having been offered at 41s. Gd. per qr. free on board.
Some purchases were believed to have been made on Liver-
pool account, %Melt, with the speculative inquiry, bad ire-
parted a brisk tone to the trade. In spring corn there had
not been much doing; but previous prices hail been well
supported, 51 to 52 lbs. ba.ley being quoted 255. to rrs. Gt.,
oat. lds , and peas 32.. per qr. free on board.
At Hamburg, on Tuesday, there was. a good demand fur
wheat for spring shipment ; 425. to 42.. tide per quarter,'
fro on board, had been paid for Glib,. to 61illse. new Up-
land, on the 'pet ; w Inlet fur 611 b.. quality to be shipped
from Lower lialtie ports in spring, 43e. to 445. per quarter
had been demanded.
la the Dutch and French markets no particular change
appears to have taken plate in quotations ; and by the
most recent advit.s from the Mediterranean we learn that
comparatively little had here done in wheat for shiptnent.
Letters from Alexandria, of the sth instant, state that a
large bannen had been transacted in wheat and beans fur
ehipment to Great Britain ; and there were then 28 vessels
heeling for ditkrent British Torts. For Saidi wheat,
295. thll. up to 315., and for SJidi beans 264.3 d. to 26a. Ad.
per quarter, free on board, had been paid. Debars
wheat had sold at 275. lid. to 295.; and ditto beans at
22e. &I. to '23e. Gd. per qr., free on board. The latest
rharters had been closed at o. Gd. to Ge. per qr. its full for
United Kingdom.
From America we learn that an active demand for wheat
and flour fur shipment hadreaused • further rise in prices.
Storks at the shipping ports were not heavy, and an early
closing of the inland navigation was deemed probable.
New leek &deices of the 3rd inst. state that the supplies of
wheat had scarcely sufficed to a ai.l the demand, and that
the value of the article had risen two cent' per bushel
within the week. Flour had oleo been taken freely, and
had risen 12j cents per brl. Shipments to some extent
were still in progress, and freight to England was ad-
vancing.
