MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

The arrivals of English wheat up to our market this
week have been moderately good, but in very middling
condition. The show of samples of both red and white
hero to-day was by no means extensive ; yet the demand
for all kinds ruled heavy, at barely Monday's quotations.
Upwards of 27,000 quarters of foreign wheat have come
to hand; that article met a very dull inquiry, and late
rates were with difficulty supported. In floating cargogs
very little was doing.
_

Vine malting bailey changed hands at full prices. In
grinding and distilling parcels very few sales took place.
Malt was held at extreme rates.
The imports of foreign oats have increased to 24,740
quarters, and the supply of English was moderate. The
trade was heavy, and damp parcels were easier to
purchase.
Beans, peas and flour were a dull inquiry.

THE WAR-OFFICE.—Some of the daily and weekly
• ls have, within the last three days, been announc-
ingjourna the issue of a warrant from the Horse Guards, to
the effect that her Majesty would be pleased for the
future to allow a gratuity of 1501. to cavalry soldiers,
and 1001. to infantry soldiers for outfit, on rising from
the ranks to a commission. Without going into further
detail, we may only inform our readers, that the warrant
in question was issued so far back as 1845, although some in-
genious individual has thrown a little novelty into the sub-
.) ect, by concocting a paragraph from a bill which may be seen
in every bnrrack-yard in the empire. When the warrant
in question was issued, the Right Hon. Sidney Herbert
was Secretary-at-War, under the late Slr Robert Peel,
and to that gentleman is due all the credit of modern
regulation, for improving the condition of the soldier.
It was he that established the normal school at Cneisea,
for the education of military schoolmasters, &ce
~ and
hence Lord Aberdeen's request that he would one again
resume his position at the War-office--a position which
he so worthily filled, and it is but justice to add, that the
present Lord Panmure (Fox Maule), did his utmost to
carry out the right honourable gentleman's views.—
