MARKETS—This Day.

MARK-LANE.

The supply of English wheat on sale at Mark-lane, to-
day, was very moderate, and the condition poor. Dry
samples sold steadily, at full prices, but for damp produce,
the trade was dull, on former terms.
The supply of foreign wheat on the stands was moderate.
In most descriptions sales progressed slowly, at previous
quotations.

Floating cargoes of grain moved off slowly, at late rates.
The supply of barley on sale was tolerably high. The
trade for all qualities ruled heavy, at the late decline in

prices.
Malt was in slow request at late rates.
The market was moderately supplied with oats. The
trade for all qualities ruled firm at full currencies.
Beans and peas changed hands at quite previous rates.
Flour was in fair average request at full prices.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—There has been a good demand for shipping
qualities, chiefly for the now season's crop, and prices rule
firm.

SUGAIL—The market has continued very quiet, and
very little has been disposed of except in the private
market, which barely maintainod former rates. In the re-
fined market common lumps are quoted 44 per cwt.
COFFEE.—A good demand has been experienced for
colonial descriptions, and plantation Ceylon has brought
fully late values.

RICE.—The demand has slightly improved, but the high
rates required by holders has, in some measure, checked
business.

FRUIT. —At private sale there was a fair competition for
raisins and currants, but figs were dull and a shade cheaper.
TALLow.—The market is moderately active, and prices
remained steady. P.Y.O. on the spot is quoted 495, and
January to March delivery 49s 3d per cent.

THE MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCES/ ANNA MURAT
with the young Duke do Mouchy has been postponed in
consequence of an injury received by him when riding ;
it has been so often spoken of in the papers that it is now
in some sort a public affair. Besides the fortune bestowed
upon the lady by the Emperor, her cousin, which is said
to be considerable, lEs Majesty has presented her, as a
marriage present, a pearl and diamond necklace of the
value of 200,000f.—£8,000.—and the Empress a wedding
dress, the cost of which is 80.000f.—£3,200. Moreover
the Palace of Fontainebleau will be placed at the disposal
of the young couple. In spite of the alliance which the
Duke thus contracts with a lady so near the Throne, the
Duke's family, it is said, are anything but pleased, for they
affect to look upon it as a niesalliawe !

A DERELICT VESSEL—On Wednesday a steam-
boat belonging to North Shields put out to sea, with
the object of seeking for vessels making for the Tyne, to
tow them in. While east of the Cason about 25 miles, the
steersman descried a vessel to the east of them, apparently
in distress, and labouring heavily. Tho boat immediately
altered her course, and bore down upon the vessel, for the
purpose of rendering the crew assistance. On approaching
her they found that she was lying upon her beam ends,
and drifting strongly with the sea. They went alongside
and hailed her, but no answer was given to their cry, and
not a soul could be seen on deck. The captain of the
steamer then made the Olive Branch secure to the vessel,
and went on board, but no one could be found. He after-
wards took her in tow, and reached the harbour between
6 and 7 o'clock. She proved to be the Envoy, of Selby.
There is a deal of water in the hold. She is not an old
vesool, and will prove a rich prize to the steam-boat owner
and the crew.

OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW BETTER.—The Commis
sary of Police in one of the communes close to Paris
was summoned on Monday to take note of the self-murder,
by means of strangulation, of a person the initial of whose
name only is given, and who was 77 years old. Among
his papers was found a document headed, "The Mysteries
of my Life," with an introduction to this effect :—" I be-
long to a very good family. I was well brought up.
Fatally for myself, I adopted as my device tho Italian
maxim, ' Chi va piano va sane.' I know now that, on the
contrary, no man should leave for to-morrow what he can
do to-day. For my part, I believed that before doing
anything it was necessary to deliberate long and ma-
turely ; and the consequence was that all I took
part in turned out unsuccessful. By this mania of post-
ponement and this dilatoriness of execution I injured
my fortune, I forfeited an important situation, and I
missed ten marriages. 1 have broken with all my friends,
because I never could return a visit in proper time ; pay
back an act of politeness, nor keep an appointment; and I
was always an hour too late. I had excellent servants, but
I never was well served, because I never was ready to be
served. 1 thought myself extremely prudent, and I always
found myself in a false or a difficult position. After long
and profound reflection, I am now convinced that my con-
stant habit of putting off everything was but a pretext;
that my real character was one of selfishness and sloth ;
and that I sought to hide, or to cover, that double vice
with a fictitious virtue. I was deterred by the fear of
fatigue, by my disgust to bodily and mental exertion, by
