MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN-E 1 [CHANGE-FRIDAY.
A decided incre. Lae has taken place in the arrivals of
English Wheat up to our market this week, coastwise as
well as by land ca triage. The show of samples here to-
day, however, was not large, but full equal to the demand,
as the attendance )f both town and country buyers was
limited. Selected . parcels of both red and white were
in moderate requ, ast, at about Monday's quotations. In
the middling an& inferior kinds, very few transactions
were reported, yet we have no actual fall to notice in
value. From AI!, )ad, we have received 6,860 quarters
of Wheat, chiefl• j from Dantzic. For most descriptions
the demand was fn a sluggish state, at barely stationary
prices. In floatit ig cargoes no sales. Malting Burley
hung on hand. 17his may be attributed to the low prices
at which old Malt; is selling. Grinding qualities sup-
ported late prices, The supply of Malt was not large.
All kinds were a dull inquiry at unaltered quotations.
From Ireland 6,6; 30 quarters of Oats have come in this
week. The suppl y from other parts is small. Selected
samples were ate ady, at full prices. Damp qualities
were neglected. Beans, Peas, Indian-corn, and Flour, as
on Monday.

HAYMARKET THEATRE

-
Mr. Shirley Brookes has given us another laughter-
moving, witty, and in every sense of the word,
original farce, under the title: of the Guardian Angel,
which was produced at this theatre last evening with
the most marked and deserved success. The Guar-
dian Angel, of whose protecting influences Mr. Shirley
Brookes has made himself the chronicler, is a certain
Moggy Snaggs (Mrs. Keeley), who to a devoted
faith in fortune-telling by cards unites an ar-
dent love for a certain Mr. Dulcimer (Mr.
Keeley), who at the commencement of their
acquaintance was a humble clerk at eighteen shil-
lings a week. Dulcimer having had some property
left him, becomes proud, apes the great, aspires to
genteel society, and deserts Moggy. She, however,
will not desert him ; she determines to be his guardian
angel, and to watch over his morals ; and accord-
ingly, no sooner is Mr. Dulcimer installed in a
lodging-house than we find Moggy there also,
officiating as maid of all work to the esta-
blishment ; consulting her cards, which she
always carries in her pocket, upon every
emergency, and guarding Dulcimer's morals by
intercepting every letter which is addressed to him in
a female hand. There are other lodgers in the house;
there is a Captain Myrtle and his wife (Mrs. Buck-
ingham), and with the latter a certain Mr. Delamere
Lazytongs, who is also a lodger in the house, is
endeavouring to carry on an intrigue, while Captain
Myrtle is devoting himself to gain the good graces of
Miss Kate Swynnerton (who found an admirable
representative in Miss Emma Harding), the cousin
of Mr. Delamere Lazytongs. Through the meddling
protection of Moggy, Mr. Dulcimer becomes involved
in these intrigues, and is suspected, and at last
denounced by everybody, when Moggy comes for-
ward and explains all, and Dulcimer marries his
guardian angel. The whole weight of the piece fell
on the Keeleys, who were both admirably fitted, and
acted as though they liked their parts. The applause
and laughter were uproarious and continuous, and at
the conclusion Mr. and Mrs. Keeley were called be-
fore the curtain.

We understand that the Government have serious
intentions of taking into consideration the question of
removing Smitbfield•market, and that a committee,
composed of practical men, will be directed to report
upon the practicability of such a course, after the fullest
investigation into its several bearings.

The Kolner Zeitung contains the following electric
dispatch :
•' The Committee of Administration, with the excep-
tion of the representatives of Hanover and Saxony, are
agreed that the elections for the German Parliament
shall take place on the 15th of January. Baron Wan-
genheim and Baron Zeschau, Plenipotentiaries of
Hanover and Saxony, have informed the Committee of
Administration that urgent business will in future pre-
vent their attending the sittings of the said Committee.
" In the Lower House of the Prussian Parliament the
King's Commissioner, Baron Radowitz, replied to a
question which has lately been put by M. Beckorath.
In spite of the protest of Wurtemburg, Bavaria, and
Hesse flomburg, the Prussian Government insists on
fixing the 15th of January, 1850, for the general election
of members for the German Parliament. The Parlia-
ment is to sit at Erfurt."

The Hannoverische Zeitung publishes a declaration
of the dissentient Plenipontentiaries of Hanover and
Saxony, protesting that any decisive steps, such as
the Convocation of a German Parliament, must tend
to increase the difficulties and divisions of Germany.

CLERK ELECTION.—(THIS DAY.)
During the whole of this morning no slight excite-
ment has existed in this parish for the election of the.
" fortunate" candidate as Vestry Clerk of the parish.
By eight o'clock the friends of all three candidates- --
Messrs. Isaacson, Yonge, and Murrough were " up P.Ad
doing," and certainly they did not leave a stone 'au'
tamed fer success. However, by eleven o'clock,, the
time for taking the vote at the Vestry-room in New
Church-court, it was pretty evident that the first candi-
date, Mr. Isaacson, had but slight chance, and the rest
of the contention for the honourable post was left t°
Messrs. Yonge and Murrough.
It ought to be stated, that nothing but good humour
prevailed with both parties, and at eleven o'clock the
cumbers stood thus :

SECOND. SEPTENNIAL DIVISION OF PROFITS.

This Company, established by Act of Parliament in 1834, affords
the most perfect security in a large paid-np Capital, and in the great
success which has attended it since its c,,rnmencement—lTa ANNUAL
INCORR BEING UPWARDS or 99,0001.

that, date to 31st December, 1847, 214',7. per cent. per annum was
added at the General Sleeting on the 6th of July, 1848.
The bonus thus added to policies from :March, 1834, to the 31st of
December, 1848, is as follows:

AUSTRIA.

VIEISNA, AUGUST 21.—The Wiener Zeitung of this
day, in an article dated Stettin, the 17th, says that
Dr. John Jacoby quitted that place on the 16th for
Konigsburg, where he is to take his trial.
Field-Marshal Radetzky has been definitely ap-
pointed Governor-General of the kingdom of
Lombardy Venice. Before setting out for
Milan, for which place he left by a special
train, the veteran General had the honour
of receiving a farewell visit from the Emperor and
the Archdukes.

Lloyd says, that General Haynau is still civil
and military Governor of Hungary. The journal
which had announced the dismissal or deprivation
of the General, says that Coura Grame, aide de-camp
to the Emperor, has been removed from attending his
Msjssty, for not having accomplished his mission
after the siege of Arad, of prosecuting the prompt
execution of military justice. General Haynau,
during his stay at Vienna, did not speak of the in-
tended executions at Pesth and Arad. The Emperor
and the Ministry did not hear of it till afterwards.

CONSECRATION OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC BISHOP
OF DERRY,--On Sunday the Rev. Mr. Kelly, P.P., was
consecrated Roman Catholic Bishop of Dary, in the
room of the Right Rev. Dr. Maginn, deceased. The
Most Rev. Archbishop Mullahs was the consecrating
bishop. The Londonderry Journal says, " 'The Right
Rev. Dr. Kelly is the most youthful prelate in the Irish
Roman Catholic Church, and Was not more than eighteen
months a parish priest."

Prince NICHOLAS of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonder-
burg- A ugustemburg has just died at Berlin of cholera,
aged twenty.
The Cologne Gazette has the following from Berlin,
dated Aug. 30:--
" A definitive agreement has at last been come to
between Prussia and Austria on the German ques•
tion. There is to be a directory, consisting of seven
members, for the Confederation. properly so called,
proposed by the Cabinets of Vienna and Munich,
which will hold its sittings, at Frankfort. The
directory will not be a college of deputies acting
according to the instructions of their Courts, but
rather a permanent executive commission for the
common interest of the whole of Germany. It is not
yet settled bow the seven votes will be apportioned be-
tween the different states, but it is provisionally agreed
that the states who adhered to the restricted confedera-
tion under the direction of Prussia will have between
them three votes, and that Austria, Bavaria, Wurtem-
burg, and the other small states not included in that
confederation, will have together four votes. Such, at
least, is the proposition of Austria. The pre.
sidency of the directors will be ♦ested alter-
nately in Austria and Prussia. This will not
alter the relations as to the common legislation and the
executive authority vested in the chief of the Empire, in
the limits of the restricted confederation. This directory
not having to exercise a legislative authority properly so
called, no states will be joined to it. This central supe-
rior authority will only be installed at present provision-
ally. The Austrian Government engages to persuade
the Archduke John to resign his dignity of Vicar of the
Empire, who will announce that resolution to the Ger-
man people in a proclamation, as the result of a good
understanding between the German Governments."

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.

It was reported in Vienna that BEM had been
taken prisoner by the Cossacks of LUDERS, in Tran-
sylvania. We, however, attach no sort of credit to
this rumour.

The mother of KOSSUTH, and three of his children,
together with Madame GUYON and her attendants,
were arrested at Raab on the 27th, and conducted
as prisoners to Vienna. The gallant EMPEROR,
who continued tied to his mother's apron string
while KOSSUTH and GUYON were in the field, now that
they are fugitives, boldly ventures to make war on
their women and children.

Letters from Czernowitz announce the arrival of
DEmmNsiu at Widin, wh:.re he had placed himself
under the protection of the PACHA.
The following letter, from KOSSUTH to Count
CASSIMER ESTERHAZY, the commandant of Comorn,
leaves no doubt as to the fact that the Hungarian
cause has been betrayed by the foul treason of
GEOP.GEY

--_ .
" Dear Count,—You will receive this letter from
Colonel von Ralmany, who is charged to communicate
,ny wishes to you verbally. The apprehensions I stated
co you at Szegedin on the 23d of June have been real-
zed. Georgey's conquest of Ofen was the last gleam of
,he setting sun of the Republic, for immediately after-
wards Dembinski was defeated in the north and Perczel
in the south ; then Georgey fell into his fatal position
at Komorn, and, finally, Bern was compelled to retreat
adore Luders. My slender hopes of being able, by
resorting to extraordinary measures, to give our cause a
more favourable turn, have been wholly destroyed by the
shameful ingratitude of Georgey; for the sudden revela-
tion and execution of his plans, which I had long per-
ceived and feared, was a treason to the cause of the na-
tion, and inflicted on me, and through me on the Repub-
lic, a death blow. Our misfortune has cost us 200,000
cannon balls, and a flight already become daagerous is
the grave of so many glorious victories. i
" Our cause is now utterly lost; the mmense fatigues
[ have lat-ly undergone have wearied my spirits and
chattered my bodily strength; I sigh for repo
se. My
greatest consolation in my present critical position is the
knowledge that those most dear to me after my native
land—my family, are in safety:

At Arad the Count DE LINAGE and several other
Magyars of distinction have been shot, in addition to
A.umcii and VATTER, the old companions in arms of
G-EORGEY, who have been judicially murdered by
the Imperialists at Raab. May the guilt of the
shedding of their blood weigh heavy on the soul of
the traitor.

HORRIBLE MURDERS AND SUICIDE AT IPSWICH.
—Just as we were going to press we learnt from an
authentic source, that this morning, Graystone, an orna-
mental painter, at Rope-walk, St. Clement's, Ipswich,
murdered his three children, the one nine months,
another two years, and the third five years of ago, by
nearly severing their heads from their bodies withla
razor. He afterwards destroyed himself' in a similar
manner —Essex Herald.

rity, which we consider perfectly trustworthy, that
neither hrr 'Majesty nor Prince Albert are expected at

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
They are filled with accounts of the inauguration
by the PRESIDENT of the Republic of a portion of the
Strasburgh Railway at Epernay, and of the speeches
on the occasion. The eastern districts of France
have always been the strongholds of the Imperialists,
and, as might have been expected, the reception of
LOUI3 NAPOLEON was enthusiastic, and the prevail-
ing shouts were "Vive NAPOLEON !" " Vive Em-
pereur!" The cry of the National Guard, how-
ever, was " Vive la Republique !" It should
be remembered that the majority of those
present were ignorant peasants, that the district is
one of the most uneducated and unenlightened in
France ; and that it is one, consequently, in which
the. priests have immense power, and in which fana-
ticism is carried tolexcess. Now, the Parti-Pretre'
are for the present supporters of Louts NAPOLEON,
and will continue to support him so long as he re-
mains the obedient tool of M. De FALLoux ; it is no
wonder, therefore, that he should have been so cor-
dially received by the priest-ridden peasantry of the
eastern departments.
The Constitutionnel has a long article on the neces-
sity of union. This article is considered as a sur-
render at discretion on the part of M. THIEES to the
Parti-Pretre. _ . .
