TILE FLEETS AT DOVER.

DOVER, THURSDAY, 10 P.M.
The English fleet has been compelled to weigh a,:clior
in consequence of the strong easterly winds which ,prang
up, rendering the exposed anchorage in the roads un-
safe. The Vice-Admiral, with the large ship has pro-
ceeded to Spithead, and the remainder of the fleet to the
Downs. It will no doubt be all assembled in Dover
Roads by Saturday, with perhaps the irovrtant
of the Du'i-e of Wellington, 131, and St. George, 120,
to do honour to the Emperor and Empress on their
departure.
Admiral Chabannes crossed over from Calais this
morning, and saluted the Port. The salute was reterned
from the Drop Redoubt on the
_height:, with if guns.
The Admiral afterwards proceeded by the 12 o'clock
train to Windsor.

It is exceedingly gratifying to observe the entente
cordiale that subsists between the French and English
naval services. English naval and military officers may
be observed daily visiting the French ships of-war in
the Roads and harbour, and it is needless to say they
are received with every demonstration of co.,:rtesy z.nd
cordial good-will by our gallant allies.
London, England, 1855-04-20

BOROUGH HOP.

Only a limited business is doing in our market, and
some few sales have been made on easier terms. The
imports are only 13 bales from Hamburgh. Mid and East
Kent pockets, 141 to 20/. ; Weald of Kent ditto, 131 10s to
151 108; Sussex, 101 108 to 121 12s ; and yearlings, 01 Os to
0/ per owt.

COLONIAL.
MU...The auctions have progressed slowly, and some
kinds have deolined.
SUGAR—There has been a good inquiry for British
plantation at full rates. Barbadoes fine yellow, at ano%
tion, realised 37s to 38s, mid to good 33s 6d to 36a 6d, and
low 31s to 335. Crystalised Demerara sold at 35s 6d to
38s 6d for mid to good yellow. Bengal brought 35s to 37s
for yellow to good Benares, 34s Gd to 35s for good yellow,
and 36s 6d to 40s 6d for mid to fine grainy yellow. Ma-
dras was taken in freely at 26s to 26s 6d for Native brown,
but good grocery yellow was taken in at 36s to 375. Man.
ritius has gone steadily, viz., common brown at 25s 6d to
29s 6d, mid to fine at 27s to 30s, low to good yellow at
30s Gd to 35s 6J, fine at 365, refining at 29s to 355, grainy
' brown at 29s 6d to 33s 6d, yellow at 343 to 355, and fine
do. at 40s 45s per cwt. Manilla sold briskly at 26s 6d to
275, washed at 26s Gd. Low Havannah 32s per cwt. Cuba
went at an advance of 7s per cwt, viz, at 31s 6d to 38s 6d
for yellow, and at 303 to 31s for brown. Refined brown
lumps have ruled firm at 44s to 44s Gd per cwt.
COFFEE .—A fair business has been done at full curren-
cies. Plantation Ceylon, at public sale, brought in some
instances is per cwt advance, viz, 65s to 70.3 and 72s for
good qualities, 618 to 64s for mid to good mid, 58s 6d to 60s
for low mid, 55s 61 to 5Ss for fine ord, and 42s to 52s for
triage. Good ord Native Ceylon sold privately at 47s to
478 lid, and at auction was taken in at 47s per cwt. Mocha
has been taken in publicly at 755. East India sold at 56s
'to 77s per cwt.
RICE. —This article has been heavy. Bengal was taken
in publicly at 13s to 13s 6d for mid white, and Java at
26s to 30s for clean.
SPICES.—White Singapore pepper is rather cheaper,
being 7d to lid per lb. Pimento brought Sid for mid.
Zaubar cloves went at bd to bid, and China ginger at
6d to Bd.
Rum.—Not much has been done. Jamaica has realised
full prices.
SALTPETRE.—The market has been heavy. A small
quantity of Bengal brought 23s far 11 per sent, and 231 6d
per cwt for 9i per cent refraction.
INDlGO.—Guatemala went at 2s 9cl to 4s 11d.
ARROWROOT.—St. Vincent's obtained lid for good per lb.
TALLOW.—P.Y.C. has advanced to 51s 6d per cwt on
the spot.
GREEN FRUIT. - The demand continues good, and the
stock of oranges being diminished prices are well sus-
tained. Two cargoes from St. Michael, sold by Keeling
and Hunt, went at an advance of 2s to 3s per box ; Lisbon
in proportion. The low price of Seville sours has induced
the confectioners to clear the market of the article. Nate
without alteration.

LONDON, FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 1855.

Our anticipations as to the cordiality of the re-
ception-about to be accorded to the Emperor and

Empress of the FRENCH have been fully and com-

pletely verified. Every one, from the Peer to

. _
the peasant—nay, more, from the SOVEREIGN of

the United Kingdom to the humblest inhabitant
of the metropolis—have earnestly concurred in

the endeavour to render honour to those by whom
it had been so richly merited. The rapturous
and enthusiastic applause by which the august

couple were greeted at every stage of their pro-

gress was the more flattering, inasmuch as the
English are not a demonstrative people. They must
indeed be greatly excited before they can shake off the

habitual coolness of their temperament. Our

French or Hibernian brethren could be more

easily excited to the boiling point, but the feel-

ing must come from the very heart of hearts be-
fore such an exhibition could be produced from
the comparatively phlegmatic people of England.
Yes, it was emphatically the people of England
that on Monday welcomed, and on Thursday ren-
dered an ovation, seldom, if ever, paralleled in
the national annals, to their illustrious guests.
It was undoubtedly partially an expression
of genuine kindliness to their French

MARKET

'HIS DAL)

CORN EXCHANGE.
During the present week the receipt of English wheat
has Leen on a very moderate scale. Fresh up to-day the
supply was small, and the show of samples was limited.
Although the demand was somawhat firmer than on Mon-
day the amount of business doing was limited at that
day's currency.
The imports of foreign wheat have been rather over
5,000 qrs. The sale for all descriptions ruled dull, but no
change took place in prices. Floating cargoes were held
at extreme rates.
We had a very dull sale for barley, and late rates were
with difficulty supported. The supply was good. Malt
moved off heavily at last week's currency.
The oat trade was dull. Inferior oats were the turn
lower. Beans, peas, and flour were dull, at previous quo-
tations.

THE NEW LOAN.

This morning at 10 the leading capitalists at-
tended at the Treasury to bid for the new loan,
and among those present were Baron Lionel and
Meyer Rothschild, Baron James Rothschild, of
Paris, Sir Isaac Lyon Goldsmid, Mr. T. A.
Hankey, Mr. James Capel, Mr. David Stern, Mr.
Laurence Cazenove, Mr. L. Cohen, Mr. B. B.
Williams, and others.
The Premier arrived shortly before the hour
appointed, and soon afterwards entered the Trea-
sury Chamber.
The Chancellor then stated the purpose for which
they were assembled, and after some observations
from Mr. Capel as to the footing upon which the
annuity was to be placed,
Baron Rothschild passed a letter to the Chan-
cellor containing the tender, and it appearing that
no other party offered, the communication was at
once read by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who
previously placed on the table the sealed letter con-
taining the minimum.

The letter was as follows :
" London, 20th April, 1855.
" Sir,—ln conformity with the public notice issued by
the Treasury, we have the honour of submitting the fol-
lowing offer for the loan of sixteen millions.
We agree to take the whole of the sixteen
millions 3 per cent. Consolidated Annuities, with
dividend from the sth January last at par, payable in in-
stalments at the periods stated in the said notice, upon
receiving for each 1001., an annuity of 14s. 6d. (say four-
teen shillings and sixpence) terminable in 30 years, to
commence from the sth inst., payable half-yearly, and
we are accordingly ready with the required deposit on
the same.— We remain, sir, very respectfully, your obe-
dient servants,

"N. M. ROTHSCHILDS, AND SONS.

"To the Chancellor of the Exchequer."
The terms of the contract were then read, and
were in conformity with the proposals originally
submitted by the Government.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer said that, as
the terms were above his minimum, it would be
unnecessary to open his sealed letter, and the
tender was accepted.
The proceedin 4s then terminated.

TILE FLEETS AT DOVER.

DOVER, THIIRSDAY,.IO P.M.

The English fleet has been compelled to weigh anchor
in consequence of the strong easterly winds which sprang
up. rendering the exposed anchorage in the roads un-

PRUSSIA.

A letter from Berlin of the 15th, in the
Debats, says :—"lt is singular that it should
be now said at Vienna, that the plenipoten-
tiaries have too little time to discuss the numerous
points on which it will be necessary to come to an
understanding. This evidently is only a kind of
feeler, in order to prep ire for a rupture of the
conferences, for if an understanding could be come
to on the principles, the points of detail would not
present any difficulties. Several German journals
have announced that the cabinet of Berlin had re-
cently addressed a note to the French Government,
in which it is said to have repeated, in the previ-
sion of the war being renewed, the assurance of its
strict neutrality. The Prussian, Correspondenice
of to-day officially declares that this account is en-
tirely devoid of foundation."
London, England, 1855-04-20

SWEDEN.

An article of the Svenska-Ticintngen, a Stock-
holm journal, the editor of which is believed to be
one of the King's aides-de-camp, has raised quite a
commotion in the Swedish press and army. That
journal declares that, for an offensive war, the
Swedish army is in want of a proper military staff,
of field equipages, a sufficient sanitary service, a
medical staff, numerous artillery, commanders—
in fact, of everything that is necessary for waging
war, with the exception of soldiers and arms. "It
is not, however, impossible," says the writer,
" that we may abandon our neutrality and join
the Western Powers, if they guarantee us the pos-
session of Finland and the re-establislim of
Poland."

they had been stolen. At the trial the jury returned a
verdict geovrally f‘v:oac of tit,' ,eteooaut,, but heave
to move

The Attorney-General now moved to enter the verdict
for the plaintiff, on the groui;d that it was against evi-
dence, two cicrks who had been called having proved
that hard cash had been givet, for the notes by Meyer
Speilmann, deducting the usual rate of exchange.
The court granted the rule.
Sir F. then, on the part of the Bank, moved for
a rule for a new trial, if their lordships should be, when
the other rule was argued, of opinion that the verdict
was against evidence.

Lord Campbell said it would be open to either side to
make any motion of the kind.

day, which, though made to the Corporation of London,
was in reality addressed to the whole British natian.
Great as has been his reception here, he had as yet
found no means of giving utterance to the feelings it
inspired, nor of offering to the subjects of his Royal
Hostess any pledge or guarantee of his present purposes
or future attitude. This he has now done in a manner
which will, if that he possible, raise him to a position
still higher than he holds at present in the estimation
of the people of this country.

SW EDEN.

An article of the Svenska- Tidningen, a Stock-
holm journal, the editor of which is believed to be
one of the King's aides-de-camp, has raised quite a
commotion in the Swedish press and army. That
journal declares that, for an offensive war, the
Swedish army is in want of a proper military staff,
of field equipages, a sufficient sanitary service, a
medical staff, numerous artillery, commanders—
in fact, of everything that is necessary, for waging
war, with the exception of soldiers and arms. "It
is not, however, impossible," says the writer,
" that we may abandon our neutrality and join
the Western Powers, if they guarantee us the pos-
session of Finland and the re- establishni of
Poland."
London, England, 1855-04-20

SPAIN.

The Madrid journals of the 14th contain nothing
of political importance. A great number of
anonymous letters were, it seems, sent to deputies
threatening them with death at the hands of " the
children of the people ;" in the event of their
voting for the bill on the national guard. The
Bishop of Osma had, after great hesitation, left for
Cadiz, in obedience to the orders of the Govern-
ment; on his departure a great number of persons
of different classes of society assembled to pay him
their respects. The biario says that the persons
who have requested the Government to be allowed
to receive enlistments for a legion for the service
of England are a deputy, and an ex-deputy, both
of whom are natives of Catalonia. The answer of
the Government has, it says, not yet been given ;
but when asked some time ago to allow a legion to
be formed, it said that it could not do so, as it was
itself in want of volunteers for the army.

ITALY.
Colonel Cadoga,n, who has been appointed British
Commissioner to the Sardinian head-quarters in the
East, passed through Turin on the 15th, on his
way to Constantinople.
A letter from Rome, of the 7th, in the Milan
Gazette, states that the dispute which arose last
year between the Neapolitan Government and the
Order of Jesuits is far from being settled ; and
that, besides Father Curci, two Jesuits more have
been compelled to leave the kingdom. The Civilta
Catolica. the Jesuit paper which is published at
Rome, is still excluded from the Two Sicilies ; and
the letter adds, that the whole Order would have
been expelled by this time had it not been for the
exertions of Cardinal Autonelli, who had written
several letters with his own hand to the Neapoli-
tan Government to mitigate its reiolutions.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, April --The market continues quite
9.
firm, and, as the orders placed during the last few weeks
have been-considerable in amount, and will find employ-
ment for many of the mills for some time ftrward, there
is not much pressure to sell, either in cloth of yarn.
The fabrics suited to the Eastern markets are not in
much request, and rather easier to buy. Some of the
American houses are doing rather more business.
NOTTINGHAM, April 19.—There has been a further
improvement in the lace trade this week. It is princi-
pally for the home market (the genial weather having
operated favourably); the improvement is alf-x) of a more
healthy character than has latterly prevailed in this
branch of the trade. The jobbinoales having ceased,
what is now doing is in every respect in the legitimate
way of business. Foreign orders come in tardily. The
hosiery trade has decidedly improved, both home and
American buyers acting with increased spirit ; the la.
bour market is consequently more active. The prices
of silk materials have not rallied much from the lowest
point which they reached a fortnight ago ; nominal quo-
tations of is. 6d. per lb. have sinco then been mentioned.
In hosiery common materials, on the other hand, remain

sitti,c. of tb., congress. tho, plenipotentiaries of the
Western Powers hav - found that it was a waste of time
to enter into any discussion without some other combi-
nation, having for object the reduction of the Russian
fl et in the Black Sea. The Russian plenipotentiaries
having been asked whether according to the tenour of their
instructions, they thought themselves sufficiently autho-

their readiness to transmit the demand to their Govern-
ment ad referendum. If I am well informed, the total
number of vessels of war which Russia would be per-
mitted to keep up in the Black Sea would not exceed
eight. Will Russia subscribe to this condition of peace?
That is the question. Her reply, if it is to be purely
and simply negative, might have arrived at Vienna by
electric telegraph eight or ten days ago. It is there-
fore evident that the Court of St. Petersburg, find-
ing that the demand of the allied powers is categorical,
and that it cannot hope to effect any modification in it,
will not give a reply, without adopting some measures
to prevent the negotiations being broken off. It was
remarked that when M. Drouyn de l'Huys produced his
powers at the sitting of the 9th, Prince Gortschakoff and
M. de Titoff very minutely examined them. It is the
usual custom for a plenipotentiary to hand his powers
to the President, who afterwards passes them round to
each member of the Conference. In a general way, this
is merely a matter of form and with the exception of the
President, no one reads the terms of such powers,
as Prince Gortschakoff and M. de Titoff did on the
present occasion. The Russian plenipotentiaries pro-
bably wished to discover how far M. Drouyn de l'Huys
was authorised by his sovereign to declare the ans Ner
of Russia satisfactory or not, without being under the
necessity of referring to Paris. I may add that the
ful powers of M. Drouyn de l'Huys are as extended as
possible, and that he is duly authorised to affix his
initials to the preliminaries of peace, or to declare that
the Western Powers consider the Conference as closed,
according as the reply expected from St. Petersburg
shall be yes or no. M. Drouyn de l'Huys and Lord
John Russell have positively declared that the continua-
tion of the Conferences will be useless if the reply of the
Court of St. Petersburg be nut satisfactory. Before a
week, therefore, the question of peace or war will be
decided."

PRUSSIA.

- _
A letter from Berlin of the 15th, in the
Debats, says :—" It is singular that it should
be now said at Vienna, that the plenipoten-
tiaries have too little time to discuss the numerous
points on which it will be necessary to come to an
understanding. This evidently is only a kind of
feeler, in order to prepare for a rupture of the
conferences, for if an understanding could be come
to on the principles, the pints of detail would not
present any difficulties. Several German journals
have announced that the cabinet of Berlin had re-
cently addressed a note to the French Government,
in which it is said to have repeated, in the previ-
sion of the war being renewed, the assurance of its
strict neutrality. The Prussian, Correspondence
of to-day officially declares that this account is en-
tirely devoid of foundation."
London, England, 1855-04-20

Pixth sitting of the congress, the plenipotentiaries of the
Western Powers hay-• found that it was a waste of time
to enter into any discussion without some other combi-
nation, having for object the reduction of the Russian
fleet in the Black Sea. The Russian plenipotentiaries
having been asked whether according to the tsnour of their

CORN EXCRANGE. ;
During the present week,,time reeeipt of—Eaglish wheat
has been on a very moderate scale. Fresh up:to-day the
supply was small,- and- the shovi of saMples was limited.
Although the demand was somawhat firmer than on Mon-
day the amount of business doing was- limited at that
day's currency.
The imports of foreign wheat have been rather over
5,000 qrs. The sale for all descriptions ruled dull, but no
change took place in prices. Floating cargoes were held
at extreme rates.
We had a very dull sale for barley, and late rates were
with difficulty supported. The supply was good. Malt
moved off heavily at last week's currency.
The oat trade was dull. Inferior oats were the turn
lower. Beans, peas, and flour were dull, at previous quo•
tations.

There was a fair average supply of beasts on offer in to•
day's market, and the demand for most breeds ruled steady,
at Monday's advance in the quotations. We had a fair
demand for sheep, the show of which was moderate, at
very full prices. There was a good inquiry for lambs, the
value of which had an upward tendency. The primed
breeds were in some instances worth 61. &1. to 7s. per Sibs.
The show of calves was extensive, and the veal trade was
heavy, at barely stationary prices. In pigs very little
was doing.
Mitch cows were steady, at from IC to 201. oak, in.

huts in rear- of the 3d Division, at present in posses-
sion of the 14th and 39th Regiments, which would
afford comfortable accommodation for 480 ; and as
these huts are built on dry, elevated, clean ground,
with water not very distant, I calculate thirty more of the
huts might be given over in case of any very great emer-
gency, and the troops put under canvas, which would
afford room for 480 more. At the Sanitarium at Bala-
klava I calculate on accommodation for 200 wounded, in
addition to the convalescents there at present, when the
huts now in course of erection are completed.
From the crowded state of the general hospitals at Scu-
tari, the length of time they have been occupied, and the
amount of fever that has prevailed in them of late, I am
most unwilling to send wounded men there if I can possi-
bly avoid it ; but should necessity compel us to resort to
that measure, the

Steamers are already fitted as hospital ships, 'and would

The hospital establishments at Smyrna, Abydos, and
Gallipoli are full ; and as typhoid fever is reported to
have made its appearance in the hospital at Smyrna, it
would not be desirable to send wounded men there during
its continuance.

If compelled to form another hospital establishment out
of the Crimea, I should suggest, from what I have heard,
that Sinope be selected. I speak from hearsay, for I have
never been there myself. but perhaps the Commander-in-
Chief might be pleased to have it surveyed by some com-
petent person, and a report made of its capabilities.
Our accommodation for wounded, taking minimum
numbers, will therefore stand thus :

Before Sebastopol, April 7.
My Loral,—Some interchange of troops has taken place
sines I addressed your lordship on the 31st ultimo.
Battalions and considerable convoys have entered the
town, and other bodies of troops have been seen to leave
the north side. The garrison has teen constantly engaged
in adding to the works, and particularly in connecting the
rifle pits in the itumedi ,to front of our right attack ; and,
as we have pushed forward, the fire upon our advance has
occaQioned more loss, I deeply regret to say, than we have
sustained since the sortie of the 23d March.
Lieutenant Bainbrigge, of the Royal Engineers, was, I
lament to have,to add, killed on the morning of the 4th
April. whilst in the execution of his duty, by the bursting
of a shell.
He was a young officer of much promise, and though he
had not long been here, he had acquired the esteem and
good opinion of his brother officers, and his loss is greatly
deplored by all.
I inclose the return of casualties up to the sth inst.
