LIVERPOOL CORY-RATIIAIVGE, FEBAUAWY 7.

The imports of Grain this week have been light, and the demand
limited, so that a further decline in prices is the result. arising from
various causes, and particularly the situation of the Money-market
and commercial distress generally. Although the attendance of
town and country dealers at our market this day was good, yet the
business done was not great. and that at a decline of about Id. on
Wheat and id. on Oats. In other enlace not much done; prime
nominally the saute as last week. 500 quarters of white and red
Indian corn declurcd for sale by auction next Friday.

Yesterday a Court of Dirrctors was held at the East
India Hoive, when the following commanders took leave
of the Court previous to departing for their respective des-
tinations, iz.:—Captain Edward Maxwell Daniell,
Duchess of 'Nihon, and Captain Alexander Chrystie, Tho-
mas Coutts, for Bombay and China; and Captain Thomas
William Barrow, George the Fourth, for Bengal and
China.

The Earl of Derby's stag bounds are appointed to meet
at Catterhato Common to-morrow.

Ds LA pro liiitti.—About half-past seven o'clock last
evening a fire broke out in the wood-yard of Mr. Jones,
timber-merchant No. 9, Duke-street,
Lincoln's-inn-
fields, which from thc inflammable nature of the materials,
burnt with a fury that threatened dcstructiion to the ad-
joining houses. But by the speedy arrival of not less than
fifteen assurance office engines, and a plentiful supply of
water, the fire was principally confined to Mr. Jones's tim-
her-yard, and the iron-foundry belonging to Mr. Carr, in
King's-head-yard, immediately joining Mr. Jones's. The
timber-yard and iron-foundry are now reiduced to a heap
of ruins. The fire communicated to the shop of Mr. Savage,
carpenter, No. 11, Duke-street, which, along with his
house, was considerably damaged. The other houses
escaped without any loss beyond that sustained in throwing
furniture out of the windows. The crowd was very great,
and the presence of a strong party of the Bow-sin:et [patrol
prerTrved the property of individuals from plunder. We
did not hear of any accident having occurred.
The official Journal of ‘Visbaden mentions, that at the
end of lan year, " the candidate H., (a young clergyman
without preferment) a native of iVisbaden, was condemned
to ten years' imprisonment in a fortress, for having been
engaged in relations tainted with high treason."
