BISHOPRIC OP CHEETER.—Another name was added
yesterday to those wad to be under consideration—that of the
Rev. H. H. Milano. We incline, however to the opinion,
that the Dean of Durham will have the offer of the vacant
see.—Herald.
FUNERAL OF THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY.
—The remains of the late venerated primate were interred
this day, in a vault in the parish church of Addington, a
small village about a mile from Croydon, and closely ad-
joining the country midence of the archiepiscopate.

ildence, paid Id. to 2d. over Tuesday's rates, whilst good
foreign simples, thoaah not in lively request, were Id. per
701 b. dearer. States Hour, upon a fair inquiry, was held
firmly, at an advance of 6d. per barrel, but was
not taken freely at the amendment; home-madei
and Irish, commanding somewhat more attention,
realised a alight improvement in value. Barley and Ilelt,
exciting little notice, merely =stained our gooey/her
Beans, attracting a fair demand, fully supported late prism
And for Peas, rather higher terms were partially acquired.
Oats, coming very sparingly to hand, fully maintained our
last currency, and very fine well prepared mailers may be
deemed the turn dearer. Oatmeal ruled nearly the same
as last noted. Of Indian Cern, with transactions daily for
Irish account, the middle descriptions have obtained an ad-
vance of 6d. per qr. And Indian Corn Meal, continuing is
improved request, made 6d. to 9d. per barrel more mousy.

17th February, inclusive: Wheat, 5,843; Melt, 36 ; Oats,

COMMERCIAL ear MARKETS.
MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE.
Two &Clock. —The financial exposition of the
premier last evening, so soon as it could be read
and digested this morning, seemed to be felt as a
" heavy blow and great discouragement " on the
stock market, and more especially by the speculators,
who stand compromised by extensive operations
for the rise. Console, horn 891 to 891, de-
scended to 891 sellers at one time, but have
recently recovered to 897 to 1, as the now remain, both
for money and account. RucedThrees 891 to L.
'Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 901 to 1. March
Exchequer Bills advertised 235. to 275. ; the June
Bills, 28s. to 301. pm. Bank Stock, 200 to 202.
As we write, Consols are reported to be again on
the rise, and quoted 891 to t, with a firm market.
We are without any particular variation in foreign
securities. With the exception of Mexican, in which
some dealings are reported, and which were saleable
at 19, with a fair demand, we have little business
doing. Spanish are dull, at 201 to 1 for the Fives,
and 311 to 1 for the Threes ; Passive, 41 to 5. Por-
tuguese, 251 to 81. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents.,
531 to 41 ; the Fours, 8.51 to 1. Belgian, 89 to 91.
Brazilian, 85 to 7. Buenos Ayres, 30 to 3. Chiller.,
90 to 2. Venezuela, 38 to 40.
It is rumoured that the Bank, in concert with the
government, of course, is assisting the speculations for
a rise in the funds, so as to render the proposition of
an increased levy of taxation on property and income,
the latter especially, apparently less odious in the
eyes of the public than, had stocks been left to find
their natural level, would have resulted as the de-
claration of real feeling on the Stock Exchange. So
long as the Bank will advance upon stock, and money
is easy in the house, speculators will be enabled, by
borrowing, to carry forward their operations in sup-
port of higher prices, probably for the present account
at least.

WOOL.—Lorrnort.—There is a moderate business
doing in English clothing Wool, but combing descriptions
are still neglected, the state of the Worsted trade being so
unsatisfactory. Yarns cannot be sold at remunerating prices,
and consequently the consumption of deep-grown combing
Wools is so curtailed that the stocks of this kind are accu-
mulating. The growers throughout the country are unwil-
ling to give way in price, which renders the business of the
dealers and spinners very difficult at present. South Dawn

Skins, 71d. to Ilid. Flannel Wool, 9d. to Is. Blanket
Wool, fel. to 9d. Leicester Fleeces, 10d. per lb. The

of the better descriptions, the rise is new 2d. to 3d. per lb.,
whilst all other sorts are going off freely at Id. to lid, above
the last sales prices. The attendance continues large, and
the biddings animated.
Luaus, Feb. 18.—There hso been a little more activity in
foreign during the put week.
LIVZRPOOL, Feb. 17.—During the put week there hss
been an excellent inquiry for Wool, which having been
liberally met by the merchants, has resulted in several ex-
tensive transactions. Business altogether looks better, but
prices, though firmer, are no higher. Some larp•sales of
Alpaca have been made to Brad'ord. Laid Eligbland has
been sold at 6s. to 61. 3d. ,• the market is now entirely cleared.
Considerable parcels of Miagadore, Peruvian, and other low
Wools have been purchased for expert to the United States.

in demand ; prices u law week, from 201. to 27.. per qr.
Exgrea, Feb. 18.—We have had fair euppli' a of all grain
in our merlset to day, and every description sold freely, at
last week's prices.
Hine, Feb. 18.—Wheat is freely offered by the farmers,
and fine dry samples command last week's rates ; whilst se
oondary sorts are difficult to quit. Nothing doing in foreign.
All Spring Corn in very limit td demand, and lower rates
accepted where sales are effected. Rye Meal is quire neg-
lected. The weather, with the exct ption of a little friat at
nights, has iwen mild, clear, and open. Nitrate of Soda
moves off steadily, at 14.. per cwt. Linseed Cakes have been
rather slow oriels. although lower rates have been submitted
to. No Rape Cakes offering. Ouano meets a good sale ;
Peruuvian, 91. ss. ; other qualities down to 51. per ton, as in
quslity ; Pigeon Manure, 71. per ton in bogs. Bones are
sought after, and may be quoted 9.55. to 975. 6d. per ton.
The arrival of Linseed comprise 5.394 qrs. from Kertch ;
2,500 qrs. from Marianople ; and 4,000 qre. from Tagaerog ;
—together, 11,894 qrs. The market being well supplied,
prices have rather given way; and to effect sides, a resever,
lution
of Is. per qr. has been submitted to, without, however,
leading to much business ; for the crushertgeneril y have,eon-
tinued supplies of Black Sea dropping in, and are not, in
consequence, buyers on the spot. Fur Baltic Seed, in ware-
house, there is scarcely any niquiry, and it must oe quoted
Is. to 23. per qr. lower. We quote fine Black Sea, 445. ; the
best heavy Petersburg, 445., down to 38s. for inferior ; Rigs,
43s to 385.; Memel end Konigsberg, 4 down to 31'

A parcel from Petersburg offers at 251. 10s. per last.
Livearoor., Feb. 18.—A few parcels of Wheat, Indian I
Corn Foe Corn Meal, and a moderate supply of Flour from
the United States, with the addition of two cargoes of
Russian Wheat, and one of Egyptian Beans, form our main
supplies from abroad since Monday last ; the fresh arrivals
from Ireland end coastwise are, at the same time, trivial.
The American exports are not expected la ti
in
quantity until the opening of the canals in the States, when
it is probable their prices will assimilate more nearly in pro-
portion with ours than they have done for some time past.
Although we have not received any lively reports this wrek
from other markets, the trade here upon the whole
assumed • more firm tune during the past two daye,without,
however, any decided improvement in prices, axe pt for
Indian Corn and Corn Meal, which, upon a more extended
inquiry, have realised rather higher rates; good fresh pireeh
of American Flour have also found a steady sale, at the AM
prices of our last. The general bearings of the trade at our
Corn Exchange to-day appeared fully to confirm the fore-
going remarks. Er.glish and Irish Wheats were saleable to
a moderate extent, and the milltre evincing rather more coa-

Calves scarce and dear. The supply of Sheep was short,
