CORN EXCIIANGE,,AIancIi 1:- .
The arrivals of Wheat and Flour last week were tolerably
good, but. of Barley and.. Oats the quantity was very large.—
This morning the fresh supplies or Wheat, Barley, Beans, and
Pease, from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, are..only :.moderate,
and there are a good many more vessels frc,lf up with Wheat
and Oats front northern ports. Prime samples of Wheat are
still scarce, and such have rather exceeded last.week's prices,
but in othet qualities there is not much business doing. Batley,
except of superfine quality, is Is. to 2s. per qr. cheaper; Beans
Are very dull in saki and such parcels as are tlamp Have sold
at Is: per qr.-lower. Pease sell heavily at no alteration in value.
—Oats are abundant, anti the sale .is very slow, so that this
article is repOrted full, ls. per qr. lower than last 11onday., In
the Flour trade there is no variation.

STEAM-BOAT ACCTDENT.,-,--011- Monday morn-
ing the steam-boat Alice,: the property of Mr. Parry, of Sea-
combe-ferry, took fire by some accident, whilst at anchor of that
place: As soon as the fire was discovered, the men endeavoured
to extinguish the flames ; but, finding their efforts unavailing,
they determined to scuttle the vessel, as the only chance of
saving her from total destruction. She was immediately
scuttled, and sank opposite to the hotel. As ~she lay on the
edge of the bank, the ebb tide, which was remarkably strong,
forced her over into deep water, where she now lies.--(Devon-
port Courier. )
