THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY)•

CORN EXCHANGE.
The market to-day has presented a small show of all descriptions
crf Grain, and there is not much Flour reported. The shortnesf
of the supplies occasioned our buyers to hesitate : very little
business has been transacted to-day, and Monday's prices have bee!,
supported. Rather more money is obtained for Ship Flour, lA`
the top price reinains

THE FUNDS-(THIS DAY).

CITY, T IVEL V E O'CLOCK
Launceston papers have been received at the North an
South American Coffee Hove to the 11th Sept. We extracV
the following from the Australian of the ith of that month
" The public will have seen from the Report of the Caw
mittee of the Legislative Council, appointed to take into
consideration the memorial of the merchants and shipowner°
of Sydney, respecting port dues and pilotage, that the Cora'
mittee were of opinion that the trade with Van Dierneo
Land should not be put on the same footing with the coasting
trade, or the trade with any other place having a separate
Government, such as the Mauritius, &c. This appears to be
just and reasonable. They have, however, recommended that
vessels constantly trading between New South Wales arir,
Van Diemen's Land should be exempted from pilotage, whie'
was the chief subject of complaint in the memorial, on the
very proper ground that the masters were in consequence 0
well acquainted with the navigation of the ports, as to render
that assistance perfectly unnecessary. This will be a veil
f
great burthen reriumeLl from that trade ; for the charge
pilotage in and out is 41. 10s. for vessels of 90 tons, and these
vessels make, perhaps, ten or twelve trips a year. There;
no doubt that the Government of Van Diemen's Land
effect the same desirable improvement.
" WRECK OF THE WALLACE.—The hope that a portion at
least of the cargo of this unfortunate vessel would be save!
has been disappointed. Notwithstanding every effort by thrf
numerous boats and vessels that surrounded her at the time °A
the catastrophe, only a portion of the passengers' luggage hi'
been rescued.

" SYDNZY MARKETS, AUG. 22.—Flour remains steal':
6,500 bushels of wheat have been purchased this, wee"'
Highest, per bushel of 60 lbs., 9s. 6d. ; lowest, Bs. 6d. ; nit;
rage, 9s. At the sale of Crown lands, which took place 10";
week, several allotments near the Court-house at Maitland
were bought at the exceedingly high price of 2201. per acrei'
The grass has hardly yet began to spring, and the Till
country is consequently in a deplorable state. A bullock die
of actual starvation this week."
Additional news received from Sydney, of Sept. 4, is, W 0
regret to say, of a very unsatisfactory description. The lonr
continued drought had the effect of seriously affecting the
prospect of the farmers, and produce of all kinds was
an enormous price. Good beef could not be obtained at le s:
than 6d. per lb. ; wheat was up Ms. per bushel ; and free
butter 2s. 6d. and 3s. per lb. The epidemic among the sheep
was spreading its fatal ravages in all directions, and mai°
ad'
the most wealthy stock-owners tremble for the result. In a/
dition to this, the outrages of the aborigines on the one Will,
and the offences of the runaway convicts, rendered the state o'
things in general far from satisfactory.
Our arrivals this morning are one French mail, and Air
letters from Chirizt, Pernatnbuco, Rio Janeiro, and Van Di'
men's Land, of Sept. 11.

Mr. Douglas has been appointed to the office 1f
Justice of Peace Clerk for the County of Latiark. 4
choice does the highest credit to Lord Melbourne's aa°l-(i
nistration. No man in the west of Scotland has labni'„,fre,.
in the public service for a greater length of time than .
Douglas, with so much zeal, and with so much ability. 11 0:
is well worthy of any mark of respect which the Reform
Ministry can bestow upon him, and this appointment ola
not only afford them the satisfaction of rewarding a trice,
friend of the people, but also of conferring an important
nefit on the city and county, as no one doubts that IV e
Douglas will make the Court to which he is nominated 011
of the best in the kingdom.—Glasgow Chronicle.

Dr. Paganini, the brother of -the celebrated viola°st
who lately died at Geneva, was himself a great admirer 5
music, and has left behind him a singular collection of musicie
instruments, which are said to have cost him a consider
sum. In addition to several Stradivariiof great value, there
,
is a violin, richly inlaid with mother of pearl and eb°rYi;
which belonged to a late Shah of Persia ; also the violir
which was the favourite instrument of Lord Byron ; annth.,!4
of Stanislaus, grandfather of Louis XV. ; another of Chary
IV. of Naples ; also one belonging to Don Manuel Godo,l
Prince of Peace, and several other instruments which ha
belonged to celebrated historical characters. Some YeA.rg
back the deceased adopted two youths, to whom he gave of
musical education ; one is at present chef dorchestre
the Opera at Vienna ; the other fills a similar situation
Turin ; he has left to each of them 10,000 francs.
FRACAS.—There has been a row at Brighton. be
tween the Master of the Ceremonies and a London lc:,
tioneer, in consequence of the latter being refused ad'n 0
Sion, with two ladies, his wife, and another relation, t°
ball at the Old Ship.
