and other Officers to attend upon the KING during
the sig=ning of the marriage contract.

The French Journals are indignant at the report of
some proceedings slated to have taken place at a
secret sitting of the Spanish Cortes on the 15th and
19th inst. According to a current, but unfounded,
rumour, M. CALATRAVA read a note from the Spa-
nish Ambassador at Paris, dated the sth inst., in which
the King of the FRENCH and his Cabinet were repre-
sented as laughing at the quadruple Alliance, and as
'preferring DON CARLOS to the heroes of La Granja,
with such persons as CALA TR AVA and MENDIZA-
13A L at their head, with much more to the same effect.
The Cortes were indignant, and, according to the
same report, menaced France with a declaration of
war However, the Madrid Gazette of the 21st, de-
nies that any such note was read in the Cortes, or that
any censure was attempted to be cast on the conduct
of the French KING and Cabinet.
TOULON, MAY 23.—The Sphinx steam-boat left this
place on the 16th, for Civita Vecchia, with dispatches for
the French Ambassador at Rome, which, it is said, related
to some permission to he obtained frpm the Pope for the
marriage of the Duke of Orleans. That vessel reached its
destination on the 18th, and the Commander immediately
proceeded post to Rome, to execute his commission. He
returned on board the 20th, and set out on the same day kr
Toulon, where he cast anchor on the 22d. Titus, thanks
to the rapidity of the steam-boats, the Government received
on the 22d, by telegraph, an answer to a dispatch sent
from Paris for Rome on the 16th. It would have taken
12 days, and been more expense, to send an express.

By the Havre, which arrived at Liverpool on
Friday, we have received a file of New York papers to
the 4th inst. inclusive. The effect of the proposal of
the Bank of England to the United States Bank was
not known when the Havre sailed for England, as the
Directors of the United States Bank had not had time
to pronounce an opinion upon it. In the commercial
world, the aspect of affairs was not more cheering on
the 3d, than at any time since the commencement of
the present monetary 'difficulties. Several extensive
failures occurred on the Ist and 2d inst., and among
them a house carrying on an extensive silk trade.
Many other houses were obliged to suspend payments.
The accounts received in New York from the south
were nearly as bad as they could be. The cotton
market in Mobile, Charleston, Savannah, and New
Orleans " had gone to the dogs." Two large cotton
houses in New Orleans had stopped payment, and
others were in the utmost difficulties. Cotton had
become a mere drug in the market. The public meet-
ing which was to have been held at Philadelphia, on
the subject of the general commercial distress, was
postponed till after the arrival of the decision of the
Bank of England, in order to render its resolutions in
some measure effective.

THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Last week the arrivals of most descriptions of Corn were
moderate, and of Flour there was a fair quantity. The trade
throughout the week was languid for every article, owing to
the favourable change in the weather. This morning the
fresh supply of Wheat has been good, and of other Grain
moderate. The weather continuing fine has caused consider-
able dulness in the Wheat trade, and the prices are declined
2s. per quarter from the terms of this day se'nnight. There
has not been much trade for Barley, and the prices are unal-
tered. Beans, being rather scarce, have obtained a little more
money than last Monday, as also have Grey Pease. Boiling
Pease are unvaried. There has been a moderate demand for
Oats this morning, and last week's rates are fully supported.
The Flour trade is very heavy, at no alteration in value.

NEWCASTLE-UPON.TYNE CORN MARKET.—May '27.
1 1 Our supply of Wheat was moderate to-day from the grow-
ers, but the arrivals from Norfolk and Suffolk this morning
were considerable, and the whole met a fair demand at an ad-
vance of 2s. per quarter on last Saturday's rates. Barley con-
tinues in limited request at our quotations. Oats were in
small supply and a brisk sale at Is. to 2s. per quarter more
money. Malt is exceedingly dull, and none but the finest
samples saleable. Rye is a free sale at our quotations. There
is no change in Beans or Pease. For Flour there is a good
demand at an advance of full Is. per sack.
