'aIAILTET NE WkS—(T.ELIS DAY.;

CORN EXCHANGE.
Most of the country markets held on Saturday were dull
for wheat, on lower terms. The barley trade was heavy,
and prices had u downward tendency. Malt moved off
steadily, at very full prices. The oat trade was less active,
and the quotations were barely supported. Beans, peas,
and flour commanded very little attention.
Most of the foreign markets have ruled steady, with
only a moderate business doing on English account. Ad-
vices from New York to the 9th iust. state that both
wheat and flour were very dull, and lower.
Up to our market last week, the arrivals of English
grain were very moderate. From abroad, we received
2,191 quarters of wheat, 130 barley, 6,865 oats, 5, 598 beans,
1,260 peas, 665 tares, 5,844 linseed, 546 rapeseed, 112 mus-
tard seed, 295 sundry seeds, 658 sacks and 300 barrels of
flour.
The arrivals of English wheat fresh up to this morning's
market, coastwise and by land carriage, were very mode-
rate, but in good condition. The show of samples of both
red and white was small compared with some previous
Mondays. About au average business was transacted in all
kinds, at prices equal to those obtained on Monday week,
viz., the 6th inst.—in other words, the fallfrom the highest
point lately paid was from 2s to 3s per quarter. At our
quotations most of the samples changed hands.
With foreign wheat we were rather scantily supplied ;
but the arrival during the past week of several vessels off
the coast laden with grain from Alexandria, and the aboli-
tion of the corn monopoly in Egypt, had considerable in-
fluence upon the trade. The business doing was limited,
at the prices of Monday se'nnight—the late advance havinc,
been lost.

We were fairly supplied with barley which moved off
somewhat steadily, at about last week's quotations.
The malt trade was considered steady, on former terms.
We were extensively supplied with oats, especially from
Ireland. A steady business was transacted in good sound
corn, at extreme rates. Damp qualities gave way 6d per
quarter.

We had a steady sale for beans, at an improvement in
he quotations of is per quarter.
The sale for peas ruled heavy, at is to 2s per quarter less

THE REINFORCEMENTS FOR THE

It is computed that, within a week of the battle of the
sth instant, Lord Raglan must have received reinforce-
ments to the amount of 5,000 men—namely, throe entire
battalions, the 46th from Woolwich, the 97th from the
Pirmus, and the 62d from Malta. In addition the Queen
of the South took out' 1,100 and the Jura 1,250 in detach-
ments to the several regiments on the ground, all of whom
would in the natural course of things have arrival, giving
a substantial addition of 5,000 infantry. Advises from
Constantinople of the 6th state that 5,00) French troops
had left for the Crimea ; General Mayran's brigade is
probably reckoned in this enumeration. A corps of 2,500
Tunisian troops, capable of rendering good service to a
general acquainted with their character and capabilities,
has been detached from Mustapha Pasha's command in
Asia, and added to the army in the Crimea.
Advises from the Crimea, which, it is hoped, may lie
subject to correction, state that General Sir De Lacy Evans
will be compelled to relinquish the command which he has
held with so much distinction to return to England. A
Sunday contemporary states that a message was received
at the Horse Guards, on Saturday evening, to the effect
that the gallant General had died on board ship, but it is
satisfactory to know that the report is open to great
doubt.

Besides the three generals slain in the battle of the sth
inst. there were as many as five wounded. Happily some
of the wounded are still able to keep the field, and will
profit by their gallant conduct.
Owing to the lamented decease of Sir George Cathcart,
the formation of a new division and the return to England
of fir De Lacy Evans, and probably of Sir George Brown,
some considerable changes must tako place in the com-
mands in the Crimea. It is stated as most probable that
Major-General Bentinck and Major-General Sir Colin
Campbell will be appointed to the command of Divisions.
In the event of General Bontinck's promotion, Major-
General Coth ington, who commanded the Ist brigade of
the Light Division at the Alma, will, in all likelihood,
have the brigade of Guards.
