TfiE LEAGUE BANQUET.—The Hon. C. P. VinieD,
ALP., writes under date of Coblentz, that he will endeavour
to be present at the League banquet, but in his present state
of health it is very uncertain if he will be able to reach Eng-
land in time. He is at present under medical treatment in
the hands of a German doctor.

SERIOUS Loss.—On Saturday information was
given by a person named Long, at present lodging in Artillery
court, Finsbury, of his having been robbed of 1001. by a set
of well-dressed sharpers. Long states that he lately returned
to this country from America, where he had been resident
many years, but intended to emigrate again to Australia, and
on Friday was at the East India docks, making inquiries
about shipping, when the men, of whom he now complains,
entered into conversation with him, and eventually succeeded
in easing him of 100/.

FIRE IN BROAD-STREET, BLOOMSBURY.—Yester-
day afternoon, between the hours of one and two, a fire hap-
pened in the premises of Mr. John Wigman, known as the
B oomsbury dining-rooms, situate at No. 43, Broad-street,
near Endell-street. Upwards of 2001. worth of property was
destroyed, and unfortunately Mr. Wigman was not insured.

of dead letters have been opened at Washington, containing
about 11,000 dolls. a portion of which has been returned to
its rightful owners.
REJOICINGS AT SEAFORDE.—On Monday evening
last the pretty village of Seaforde was gaily illuminated in
honour of the return of the Rev. W. B. Fordo and family
from a lengthened sojourn on the Continent. A large arch
spanned the main street, from which floated two pretty flags,
bearing the appropriate inscription of " Caed Mille Failthe,"
and " Welcome Home," and two large tar-barrels blazed
adjacent to the arch.
DEPARTURE OF THE NIAGARA.—At twelve o'clock
on Saturday the British and North American royal mail
steam-ship Niagara, Captain Stone, sailed from the Mersey,
with the usual mails, a good general cargo on freight, and
a full complement of passengers, among whom was Mr.
Abbott Lawrence, late Ambassador to the court of St. James,
who was accompanied on board the Niagara by several of
the local magistrates, including Mr. William Itatlainne, and
wit, loudly cheered M WI departure,

MARKET NE WS-(THIS DA

CORN EXCHANGE.—MONDAY.
NE.
Most of the country marke MARK-LA
ts held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with English wheat, yet the demand for all
kinds ruled steady, at an advance of fully is. per quarter.
At the outports, fine foreign wheats were held for higher
rates. Barley, especially malting parcels, changed hand
fully at ls. per quarter more money. Malt, oats, beans, and
flour were quite as dear; but peas bad a downward tendency-
The latest advices from New York state that flour bad
advanced 10 cents per barrel. All grain was quite as dear-
In the Continental markets, the trade has ruled steady, at
full currencies, with fair average supplies on offer.
Up to our market last week the arrivals of English Vein
were on the increase. From abroad, we received 48,691
quarters of wheat, 5,638 barley, 23,776 oats, 366 beans, 1,911
peas, 94 tares, 9,429 linseed, 713 rapeseed, 158 mustard
seed, 478 sundry seeds, and 2,410 barrels of flour.
Fresh up. to-day, the receipts of English wheat coastwise
w ere very moderate. By land carriage the supply was 11
no means large, but in much better condition than of late-
On the whole, the show of samples —many of which wet°
left over from Friday last—was good. Notwithstanding
that the arrivals of foreigh wheat, last week, were extensive,
and that numerous cargoes are being bonded in warehouse,
holders of home-grown wheats were very firm in their de-
mands. The demand, however, was decidedly less active
than last week, and a total clearance was not effected till $
late hour. In the quotations we have not the slightest
change to report. A few parcels of wheat sold for forvrard
delivery, at late figures.
We were somewhat largely supplied with foreign
wheat, the general quality of which was far from floe
Good heavy qualities were taken to a moderate extent,
full quotations. Low and middling kinds sold heavily, bet
we have no alteration to notice in their value.
Floating cargoes off Falmouth were quite as dear as last
week—the demand on Irish account being steady.
Although the supply of English barley was rather extol'
sive, and in good condition, that grain moved off freely at
the extreme rates paid last week. Foreign parcels were yell
firm.
There was an improved sale for malt, the prices of which
were well supported.
The aggregate show of oats being large, the oat de v7OO
less active; nevertheless, late arrivals were a pported.
Beans—The supply of which was on the increase, sold tO
a fair extent, at full prices.
There was rather ore inquiry for all kinds at eas.
