CORN EXCHANGE.

but not dearer. The imports are, 5,330 quarters, chiefly
from New York. Floating cargoes of grain were held on
higher terms.
We had a good demand for barley at fully Monday's cur-

rency.
Malt sold to a fair extent at late rates.
There was rather more doing in oats at full prices.
Beans and peas unaltered.
The top price of the best town-made flour was 77s per

BELGIUM.

BRUSSELS, Nov. 3.—The King of the Belgians
this day opened the Chambers in person. His
Majesty spoke to the following effect :
" I receive with gratification continued proofs of
the sympathy and the confidence of Foreign Go.
vern ments.

" My son, in his recent visit to several European
nations, has also convinced himself of the high rank
which our beloved country holds among the several
nations.

" The necessity of alleviating the sufferings and
supplying the wants of the poorer classes of my sub-
jects induces me to claim your support for measures
to control the high prices which so severely press
upon the humbler people.
" I have to congratulate you on the high distinc-
tions earned by the specimens of Belgian art and
industry which our countrymen have contributed
to the Exposition Universelle, about to close in
Paris.

"\\Te have commenced the 25th anniversary of
ourindependence. If that independence has pro-
duced happy results ; if it be respected and viewed
with a friendly feeling by all nations, we owe that
friendship and sympathy to the moderation and
,traightforwardness which form the bases of our
national character, and to the policy we hare
hitherto pursued."

THE NEW COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF.

A telegraphic communication has been received, intl.
mating the willingness of Sir William Codrington to
accept the command-in-chief of the British army in the
Crimea, which the increasing delicacy of Sir James Simp-
son's health had induced that offici.,r to resign. Sir Wit.
!lam, therefore, now holds the command of the army, and
was gazetted last night to the local rank of General.
The delay in apprising Sir W. Codrington of his appoint-
ment to the chief command was caused by an accident
on the Marseilles railroad, which prevented the messen-
ger who was carrying the despatches from arriving at
Marseilles in time for the steatn-boat. A week was thus
lost, but during the whole course of the war, with a re.-
gular service of messengers between London and Con•
stantinople, this is the first interruption that has oc•
curred.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, Tuesday.—The active demand of tho
past week, and the enhanced prices of the raw material
still steadily maintained in Liverpool, together with the
easier rates for money, all tend to a very firm feeling,
which is manifested in this market to-day both for goods
and yarns.

HIGH PRICE OP SUGAR.—Saunders' News says :—" It
is understood that many families in Dublin, Cork, and
Belfast are about to cease using sugar until the present
feverish monopoly comes back to a fair and moderate
test. A similar mode was adopted in the year 1796 by
the friends in both countries of the great Wilberforce, to
check the slave trade, and abate its tortures on the naked
back, which had a powerful effect. If the inhabitants of
towns in Ireland would adopt the same remedy the end
would be answered. It is worthy of remark that tea with-
out sugar is more wholesome, and the celestials in China
never put in sweets, but drink the tea in its original
purity, '

%IR. HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
IL street, has introduced an entirely new desclption of ARTI-
FICIAL Till F,TH, fixed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
perfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
the original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of !vets, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guatanteed to restore articulation and mastication. Decayed teeth
rendered sound and useful in mastication.--52, Fleet-street. At

BOW-STREET.

THE WATCH ROBBERY IN THE STRAND.
This morning the two men, named Joseph Levy, and
George Purser, a waiter out of employ, were placed at
the bar for further examination, charged with being in
possession of a portion of the stolen property.
It will be recollected that at the last examination,
when the man Purser was placed at the bar, that be
was apprehended at the shop of Mr. Tomlinson, a pawn-
broker, pledging a watch from which the name of
Milleret was erased. The account given by Purser of how
the watch came in possession of the prisoner was that
while he was in the shop of a man named Charlton, in
Holywell-street, a man whom he did know came in and
offered him half a crown if he would go and pawn the
I watch kr him, and that the priacuere Wfre man*

for the production of the man Charlton, who had ab-
sconded.

Inspector MackenziP said that, he had not yet been
able to discovi r the retreat of Char:ton, and he must
therefore ask the magistrate for another remand.
An application was here made for the admission of
Purser to bail.

Mr. Henry said that at present he must decline
taking bail, but if the case was not complete by next
week he would then think of it.

The prisoners were then ordered to be brought up
again this day week.

MR. E. T. SMITH AND HIS AFRICAN TWINS.—It Will
be recollected that Mr. E. T. Smith, the lessee of Drury-
lane Theatre, some days ago made an application for
advice as to the best means to be adopted to recover
the possession of two African children that he alleged
had bee❑ clandestinely removed from the custody of
their guardians. The children in question were two
little negro girls, united in a similar manner to that of
the Siamese Twins.

This afternoon Mr. Smith waited upon Mr. Henry,
to inform him that in Scotland he had obtained posses-
sion of the children, and thinking he (the worthy ma-
gistrate) would like to see them, he had taken the
liberty of bringing them into court for his inspection.
The children were here carried into court enveloped in
a large carpet, which upon being removed discovered
two little negro children, apparently about five years
old, dressed in amber coloured frocks and blue satin
bonnets. Upon a portion of the dress being removed,
the cause of union was plainly visible. Mr. Smith then
told one of the children to sing a song to the gentlemen,
upon which she began singing the negro ditty of "Oh,
/Susannah, don't you cry for me." She had scarcely
commenced her song when the other child began singing
the same melody, which seamed greatly to amuse tb♦
worthy magistrate, as it did the few persons who hsp.
pened to be in court. Upon being again re-covered with
the carpet, the magistrate asked if that was the usual
way of travelling ?

Mr. Smith—Oh, dear no—it is only adopted in order
to conceal the children from the crowd collected outside.
Mr. Smith then, with his tender charge, withdrew.
There was an immense crowd collected outside the
court immediately it became known that "The Siamese
Twins," as they are called, were inside the office, but the
euvious carpet prevented their curiosity from beim,
gratified.

SFATE OF TRADE.

IMI CIIESTEB, Aug. 30.—The fine weather has bad aLI
good influence on the market this morning, and, with-
out attaining higher prices, goods are firmer. A fair
business is doing for shipping, but the home demand i 3
sluggish, and is likely to continue so while the present
high prices of wheat are maintained.
NoniscHAll; Aug. 30.—We have no alteration to
report in the state of the. lace trade, business having
been very quiet this week. A revival however,
looked forward to in a week or two. The hosiery trade,
although not to say brisk, is much better than it Las
been for some weeks past. This circumstance is attri-
butable to the recent good news from, the Beat of war,
the encouraging harvest prospects, and the relaxation in
monde matte's. There is no alteration in the rice of
niat?riale.:- :Yarns were probably urrer styfet. p

Last night Auber's opera of Musaniello was produced
at this theatre and met With complete success. The
music allotted to the part of the hero was very tastefully
sung by Mr. E. Galer, and Miss Lanza gave the music
of Elvira with her accustomed intelligence and feeling.
The choruses were steadily given, and the dances very
prettily arranged. The directors of the operatic specu-
lation seem determined to bring their season to a close
with eclat, for although within a week or two of its ter-
mination we see they have announced Il Trovutore, and
several other highly popular operas for representation.

PAUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin, of the 27th, says :—"Count
de Nesselrode, the nussian Chancellor of State,
has just addressed a frosh despatch to all the Rus-
sian embassies. In this document the Count repeats
the willingness of the Cabinet of St. Petersburg to
accept honourable propositions for peace, and re-
commends that no opportunity shall be neglected
of reminding the Cabinets to which the ambassa-
dors are accredited of the pacific intentions of the
Russian Government."

" The King of Prussia," says the Cologne Gazelle,
"left Sans-Souci on the morning of the 27th for
Sohenkendorff, to be present at the manoeuvres of
the guard. His Majesty will pass the night at the
residence of Major de Gortmke at Gross Beutens,
and return to Sans-Souci on the following day.
Part of the men employed in preparing ammuni-
tion are to be dismissed to their homes, but the
remainder of the troops will still be kept on a war
footing."

A letter from Berlin, of the 27th, says :—" The
Saxon Government has just contracted a new loan
of fivemillions of thalers, which were all subscribed
for in three days, the Prussian capitalists having
taken a considerable amount. It is positively
stated that the efforts of the Prussian Government
have led to an arrangement with the city of Bremen,
by which that city will now form part of the Zoll-
verein. This result is very important for Ger-
many, as the Zollverein will possess a port. It is
said that all the other German States have adhered
to the treaty of 29th June last, between Prussia,
Belgium, and France, on the subject of interna-
tional telegraphic communications. The ratifica-
tions have been exchanged."
The Duke and Duchess de Brabant arrived at
the palace of Laeken on Tuesday. Their Royal
Highnesses, who are in excellent health, set out
the next morning in a special train for Hasselt, to
meet the King and the Count de Flandre, on their
return from the camp of Beverloo.
