FR ONCE.

MM. Black and Durand, merchants at Constan-
tinople, who are charged with the negotiation of
the Turkish loan, are now in Paris, and have placed
themselves in communication with the Credit
Mobilier and M. Mires for that object. It does
not appear, however, that these negotiations have
as yet led to any definitive result. It is said that
a proposition to facilitate the loan was this day
presented by the Marquis de Lavalette, ex-Minis-
ter of France at Constantinople.
The weather has become for the last three or four
days intensely hot ; the accounts from the provinces
would show it to be general, and they also are
highly favourable as to the crops. If the present
weather lasts the harvest will bee abundant.
The accounts contained in the llioniteur as to
the progress of the harvest are of the most favour-
able nature. A considerable fall had taken place
in most of the markets, and the yield was expected
to be one-fourth more than the average.

The following are ti
receipts of the principa:

MARKET NE WB.--( T ILLS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

We had a very limited supply of English wheat in to-
day's market, yet so little business was transacted in it
that Monday's prices were nominally unaltered.
The show of foreign wheat was good; all kinds moved
sif heavily, and the quotations were almost nominal.
There was nothing doing in floating cargoes.
Barley and malt were dull, and most descriptions were
offering on lower terms.
There was very little inquiry for oats. Beans and peas
',ere excessively dull.
The flour trade was heavy, at Monday's quotations.
