MARKET .NEWS-(THIS DAY).

CORN EXCHANGE.

To day's msrket was very scantily supplied with all
kinds of English wheat. The demand, however, ruled
very dull, and inferior qualities were offered on lower
terms without sales being effected.
The show of foreign wheat was extensive. Owing to
the prevailing fine weather, the inquiry for all descriptions
was heavy, and the quotations were not supported.
Very few floating cargoes were on offer.
Barley and malt, the show of which was but moderate,
were dull, but not cheaper.
The show of oats was good, whilst the inquiry was con-
fined to immediate wants, on former terms.
Iu beans and peas very little was doing.
The flour trade was dull, and the top price of the best
Town-made was 65s per 2801bs.

PRICE OF GOLD.—The quotation of gold at Paris is
about 4 per mille discount (according to the last tariff),
which, at the English mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per
oz. for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.07 ; and,
the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.00,
it follows that gold is about 0.28 per cent. dearer in
Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburg the
price of gold is 422 per mark, which, at the English
mint price of 31. 17s. 101 d. per oz. for standard gold,
gives an exchange of 13.3 a ; and, the exchange at Ham-
burg on London at short being 13.31, it follows that

Lon-
don for bills at 00 days' sight is 1094 per cent., and, the
par of exchange between England and America being
109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is no-
minally 0.17 per cent, in favour of England ; and, after
making allowance for charges of transport and difference
of interest, the present rate leaves a small profit on the
importation of gold from the United States.
MELBOURNE MINING COMPANY.—AII action in the
Court of Queen's Bench on Monday, brought by a share-
holder in the Melbourne Gold and General Mining Com-
pany, against one of the directors and trustees, to re-
cover a deposit of 11. per share on 50 shares, on the
ground that the conditions of the prospectus had not been
fulfilled, was successful. A bill of exceptions, however,
was tendered by the defendant's counsel, and a new
trial is to be had before a special jury.
GEOGRAPHICAL CLUB.—The members of this club held
their last meeting for the session on Monday, at the
Trafalgar, Greenwich, Sir Roderick Murchison in the
e
chair, supported by Lords Sheffield and Overston .
annual grant of 5001. to the Royal Geographical Society
was also voted by the House of Commons on the same

evening.
CITY COMMISSIONERS OF SEWERS.—Yesterdaythe corn-
missioners assembled at Guildhall, Deputy Peacock in
the chair. The commissioners were some time occupied
in considering the course to be pursued with regard to
property needing, in the opinion of the medical officer of

done in cases wchere
hoowners es
where the tenants are of the lowest description, and psy
no rent to any one. Many of the commissioners objected
to lay out the public money in the improvement of such
property, and others of them were of opinion that the
necessary orders must be carriedinto execution as the
only means of providing against or remedying the evils
of disease. Ultimately, at the suggestion of the chief
clerk, the case was adjourned for a week, in order that
further investigstiou may be made. The contractor was
paid a second instalment for repairing the Fleet sewer ;
the whole of the repairs will, according to the statement
of the surveyor and engineer, cost the sum of 8,0001.
Several improvements, one of which was the important
improvement of widening Chancery-lane at the southern
end, were agreed to, and, after the transaction of othQr
incidental busineso the t
