MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY

CORN EXCHANGE—WEDNESDAY.
Notwithstanding that the supply of English Wheat on
sale in to-day's market was very limited, the demand
for all descriptions, owing to the thin attendance of
buyers, was i❑ a depressed state, at about Monday's
prices. Nearly the whole of the country markets held
yesterday were lower, for both Wheat and Barley. The
show of Foreign Wheat was again moderate; neverthe-
less, the amount of business do►ng in that article was
trifling, at barely late currencies. Floating cargoes were
in fair request chiefly for Holland. Fine Malting Barley
realised full quotations; but grinding and distilling
sorts, including Malt, commanded very little attention.
We were scantily supplied with Oats, for which the
inquiry was tolerably firm, at full prices. Beans, Peas,
and Indian-corn were dull, and almost nominal. Flour
moved off heavily, yet, as an advance of three francs
per sack has taken place in the quotations in Paris,
holders refused to submit to lower prices.]

CLERKENWELL.—(THIS DAY.)
William Henry Boreham was placed at the bar before
Mr. Corrie, charged with being drunk and making a
disturbance at Sadler's Wells Theatre, and also with
assaulting the constable.
Mr. Reynolds, the constable at the theatre, stated that
last night the prisoner, in company with some others,
went to the boxes of the theatre, and being drunk,
shortly after their entrance, began to make a disturbance.
Upon being remonstrated with the prisoner refused to
desist, and ho therefore proceeded to eject him, when
the prisoner became very violent, and struck at him
several times. In the course of the struggle the prisoner
tore the prosecutor's coat across the arm, and inflicted
other injuries. There were several other persons present
who witnessed the assault, and who also complained of

WORCESTER CATHEDRAL.—The numerous little
spires which once gave a peculiar character to our Cathedral
have now all been taken down except one, and that is also to
be removed shortly: They had become so dilapidated as to
rock to and fro, and threaten imimnent danger to the struc-
ture beneath. We believe it is the intention of the Dean
and Chapter, if not to replace the spires (which, probably,
