SEED.

The speculative demand for Canary Seed has sub-
sided. In prices, however, we have no actual decline to
notice. Most other Seeds are dull, at last week's quota-
tions. Cakes support late rates. The stock of Clover
Seed in bond, on thu sth ult., was 43,624 cwts.

Compared with those of several preceding weeks, as
well as with those at the corresponding periods in 1847
and 1848, the importations of foreign Stock into London
since this day se'nnight have been extensive, and, on the
whole, of somewhat improved quality. The total supply
has amounted to 6,590 head, against only 3,901 in 1848,
and 4,582 in 1847.

HOLLAND.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 6.—The Ministerial crisis still
continues. Their deliberations respecting the new
combination were again continued with much
energy. Yesterday several conferences took
place, in which M. DORKER CURTIUS; M. Tnon-
BECKE, and several other gentlemen took an active
part. It is asserted, with every appearance .of
probability, that the new Cabinet will be com-
posed as follows :—Foreign Affairs, Lightenvelt;
Interior, Thorbecke ; Finance, Von Bisse ; Colonies,
J. C. Band ; Marine, Van Den Bosch ; War, General
Knoll; Reformed Religion, Baron Hemsha ; Roman
Catholic Religion, Matsherts ; Justice, Severnstern,
Procurator• General of Groningen. Up to this mo-
ment, however, this intelligence has not been officially
confirmed, but it is confidently expected that the above
list will terminate the Ministerial crisis.

A long conference had taken place between the
Minister for Foreign Affairs and the French Ambas-
sador, after which the Ambassador set out fur Paris,
at two o'clock in the morning. _

The Stoats Courant publishes a Royal decree,
which fixes the number of Protestant ministers in
the Netherlands West Indies at twenty. They are
to receive a stipend of 3,600, 4,800, and 6,000 fl zins.
M. PFELIPORE has been appointed ruler of the Uni-
versity of Leyden for the scholastic year 1849-1850.

ITALY.

The Chamber of Turin has rejected the credit of
sixteen_ millions destined for the payment of the first in-
stalment of the Austrian indemnity, on which M.
D'AZEGLIO resolved upon a dissolution of the Cham-
ber, with the view of having the Constitution revised.
The French Ministerial journal in making this an-
nouncement says—
" The firmness of the Cabinot saves the country, and
saves true liberty; our warrant is the liberal sentiments
of the Piedmontese Ministry, and especially of its chief,
the Count D'Azeglio, whose noble antecedents place
him in the first rank amongst the regenerators of Italy."
The Chambers will, it is said, be immediate dis-
solved, and a charte octroyee published.
The Piedmontese Gazette of the 2d announces in a
postscript that a telegraphic dispatch had just brought
the news of the arrival off Spezia of the Monzambano
steamer, with the body of CRAELES ALBERT on
board ; the Monzambano was waiting. for orders to
proceed to Genoa. The Ministers were to leave
Turin for Genoa on the evening of the 2d.
The Riforma of Lucca states from Leghorn, 29th
ult., that the British Consul had protested in the
name of the English merchants settled at Leghorn
against the forced loan which the Chamber of Com-
merce had directed to be levied upon merchants.
The English are ready to pay the taxes, but refuse
to contribute to the forced._ loan. The goods of
several have been destrained upon in consequence ;
some have paid and protested at the same time.
The whole affair has been referred to the British
Government.

CENTRAL GERMANY.

--- -
PROBABLE AGREEMENT OF AUSTRIA AND
PRUSSIA ON THE SETTLEMENT OF THE

GERMAN CONSTITUTION.
The following reached Cologne on Friday evening
by the Berlin electric telegraph, and was immediately
forwarded to the French Government :
" VIENNA, OCT. 2.—The resignation of Prince
Schwarsenberg is considered likely on account of the
disposition manifested in a high quarter to come to a
settlement with the principal Governments of Germany
for the establishment of a German constitution, and it
is affirmed that Baron de Schmerling, who had been the
Prime Minister of the Archduke Vicar-General of
the Empire, at Frankfort, will succeed the Prince
Schwarzeaberg.

" BERLIN, OCT. 4.—We learn that the reply of the
Austrian Government concerning the important question
of the German constitution, reached Vienna to-day.
Austria proposes some new modification to the last pro-
ject of our Government. The Council of Ministers is
now actually sitting in deliberation on these proposals.
It is considered most likely that the two principal Sove-
reigns of Germany are on the point„of coming to an un-
derstanding on this grave question.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY.
The Austrian Lloyds announces that the Austrian
fleet in the Adriatic has been ordered to sail for the
Dardanelles. The rumour of the assassination of
GEORGET is contradicted. SCHWARZENDERG is, it IS
said, to retire from the Ministry, and SCUMER.
LING is to be called to the head of the Cabinet, of
which COLLEREDO is to be a member. COLLEREDO
has for months past been in London intriguing with
our Tory reactionaries, and with the other enemies of
liberty, who, like METTERNICH, have taken refuge in
this country. The appointment of a Schmerling
and Colleredo Ministry is equivalent to a withdrawal

THE BOARD OF HEALTH AND THE BOARD OF GUARDIANS.

Captain HOLLAND, RN., drew the attention of the
vestry to tho sanitary report furnished to the Board of
Health by the district registrar of All Souls, which
threw a slur upon the parochial authorities, and which
contained many statements at variance with facts, and all
extremely exaggerateJ.
After some observations by several speakers, the con-
sideration of the question was adjourned, to enable lir.
Skase and the other parochial officers to reply to the
district registrar's charge.

ing a certificate, incurs a penalty of 201., and is also liable to be sur-
charged in double the amount of the certificate duty.

quisite, not only that ha should bedeputed by some lord or lady of n
manor or reputed manor, but also that such deputation should bo re-
gistered with the Clerk of the Peace, or the gamekeeper will be liable
to be surcharged In double the duty of V. Os. 10d., and also to be pro- '
scented by any common Informer for the penalty of 201.

venue to publish in a separate List the names and residences of all
persons surcharged in double duty for sporting without certificates.

13ADEN.

The official Carlsruhe Gazette contains a pro-
visional law relative to the war tribunals and courts-
martial. It is thus worded :
" The Minister of War will confirm the sentence with
reserve of our sanction, Ist, when the tribunal of war
shall pronounce any penalty or sentence of ignominy
against an officer or other official having the rank of au
officer; 2d, detention in the house of correction for ten
years at least against other military individuals in active
service.

" The Minister of War is authorised to mitigate the
sentences passed by the tribunals of war, and which he
is called upon to confirm."
The same gazette publishes another provisional
law on the composition of a tribunal extraordinary,
charged with deciding on affairs of honour that con-
cern Baden officers and military officials. This
tribunal will consist of 15 members, from the rank of
lieutenant-general to that of lieutenant, both inclu-
sive. The half of this latter grade may be chosen
from the army of any other German state.

We understand that the future receipts of stock frosu
Spain, unless, indeed, prices should materially improve
here, will be very small, as the importers hase euff2red
heavy losses from the whole of those as yet at hand this
year. With foreign Beasts and Sheep we were yell sup-
plied to-day, but the number of Calves from abroad was
very moderate. The arrivals of home-fed Beast, fresh to
this morning's market were again seasonably large; but
at least three-fourths of them were of very middliug
quality. The weather being favourable fur slaughtering,
and the attendance of both town and country buyers
good, the priniest Scuts, home-breds, &e., moved off
steadily, at fully Friday's advance in the quotations, the
top figure for Beef being Os 10d per Blbs. In all other
breeds a moderate business was transacted, at last week's
prices. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Nurthaucp-
tonshire, &c.. we received shout 2,000 Short- horns ;
from the Eastern, Western, and Midland Districts, 800
Scots, Short- horns, Herefords, Runts, Sec.; and from
other parts of England, 400 of various breeds. The
remainder of the Bullock supply was derived from
abroad and the neighbourhood of the metropolis.
There .was a further slight falling Of in the supply of
Sheep, yet it proved extensive, the time of year consi-
dered. Fur most breeds, especially the finest Dawns,
which were very scarce, the demand was steady, though
not to say brisk, at 2d per Blbs above the curreneiee paid
on this day se'nnight. The highest figures for Mutton
were from 4s to 4s 2d per Blbs. The quality of the
Sheep was by no means first-rate. There was a slight
improvement in the Veal trade, and prices ruled from
2d to 4d rer Blbs higher than cn Monday last, and at
which a good clearance was effected. We were hut mo-
derately supplied with Pigs, which were mostly held at
very full price s.
nonouGa AND SP:ETATAPIELDS.

Notwithstanding that the home-grownslVplri;—of
Potatoes on oiler are very moderate for the time of year,
the demand for them continues in a sluggish state, on
somewhat lower terms. It is worthy of remark, that
scarcely any diseased samples have made their appear-
ance during the whole of the season; indeed, the quality
of the samples now on show is unexceptionably good.
Regents are selling at from 31 55 to 41; Shaws, 3/ 5s to
3/ 15s; and Red Kentish Kidneys, 3/ 5s to 31 153 per
ton. Last week's imports into London were 460 baskets
from Rotterdam; 2 bags from Bremen; 60 tons from
Rouen; 216 bags from Antwerp, 103 ditto from Ham-
burgh; MI tons from St. Valery; 763 bags from Ghent:
281 sacks from Dunkirk; and 60 sacks from Havre.
Very large supplies are expected from the continent
daring this and the ensuing month. During the eight
months ending on the sth ult., the total iceportaduns
amounted to 747,076 ewis, against 260,405 ditto in the
same period in 1848.

TALLOW.

At length, something like au improvement has taken
place in our market. Notwithstanding the delivery,
last week, was only 2,192 casks, prices to-day, are
from 3d to 6d per cwt higher than on Monday last.
P.Y.C. on the spot, is selling at 36s 9d to 37s ; and fur
delivery up to Christmas, 36s 6cl. From January to
March, the quotation is 37s Ed per cwt. Town Tallow
36s 6d to 37s per cwt nett cash ; rough fat 2s Id per
81bs. The shipments at St. Petersburgh, as will be seen
by our annexed list, have slightly fallen off.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

MONEY MARKET.—Money affairs at New York con-
tinue to improve, and business; generally is in a more
flourishing condition. The fall trade is somewhat pro-
mising, and the influx of customers into New York,
Philadelphia, and the leading cities and port., was
considered larger than usual, attributable to the fear of
cholera having held back country purchasers till the
present time.
Breadstuffs—The market for breadstuffs was quiet,
and prices were without change. Western Canal flour,
was quoted 5 dolls. to 5 dolls. 12i-e. per barrel, and
transactions were steady. Genes see prime wheat ruled
at 1 doll. 200. to 1 doll. 22c. Fer 6011 m. Indian corn,
round yellow, 60e. to 62e.; marls.et steady. Ditto, fiat,
62e. per bushel.
Cotton.—The cotton market at New York is reported
as brisk, with a good average am ount of business doing.
Prices have slightly advanced, a will be seen from the
following quotations:—New Orleans and Mobile mid-
dling fair to fair kinds, 1 to 12c. per lb. Uplands
middling fair to fair, p 0 c. to like, per lb., being a rise
of above lc. Exchange on Loudon, 1691 to 109, with
an upward tendency. Ditto on Paris, 5.25, and the
demand was fair. Ditto on Hum:burgh, 35 to 354. Ditto
Br.men, 7i- to 7f.
Provisions have been without any particular interest,
the demand being mostly for home consumption, and
neither buyers nor sellers seem ,disposed to act.
Freights continue to be quoted very low, and tha bu-
sineis dono was triflinv.

FRANCE.

A report having been mentioned in some of the
journals that the cholera had broken out at Nice,
the British Consul in that city, M Lacroix, has
written to contradict Ole -report, and enclosed
certificates to the Bain( ant from the two English
resident physicians, Doctors Travis and Gurney. The
Consul, after declaring that there was not the
slightest foundation for the report that the cholera
had appeged at Nice, adds, " It is the opinion of
the medicl? board that never was the sanitary state
of this place more satisfactory than it is at present.
It may also be mentioned as a striking fact that,
in the former outbreak of the cholera in this country,
whilst other places on the same line of coast were
severely visited by the malady, the average annual
mortality,of Nice was only increased by about twenty
deaths."

GERMANY .

The demand of Russia for the extradition of the
Hungarian refugees has created an intense feeling of
indignation throughout the length and breadth of
Fatherland. The whole population is with France
and England in this quarrel ; and even in the Aus-
trian dominions the people are most indignant against
their vassal EMPEROR, who has betrayed his country
to Russia.

HOLLAND.

TUE HAGUE, OCT. 6.—The Ministerial crisis still
continues. Their deliberations respecting the new
combination were again continued with much
energy. Yesterday several conferences took
place, in which M. DONKEE CUETIUS, M. Lion-
BECKE, and several other gentlemen took an active
part. It is asserted, with every appearance of
probability, that the new Cabinet will be com-
posed as follows :—Foreign Affairs, Lightenvelt;
Interior, Thorbecke ; Finance, Von Bisse ; Colonies,
J. C. Band ; Marine, Van Den Bosch ; War, General
Knoll; Reformed Religion, Baron Ilemsha ; Roman
Catholic Religion, Matsherts ; Justice, Severnstern,
Procurator-General of Groningen. Up to this mo-
ment, however, this intelligence has not been officially
confirmed, but it is confidently expected that the above
list will terminate the Ministerial crisis.

A long conference had taken place between the
Minister for Foreign Affairs and the French Ambas-
sador, after which the Ambassador set out for Paris,
at two o'clock in the morning.
The Staats Courant publishes a Royal decree,

WOOL.

The public sales hAfsinCecur last have been well
attended by buyers. About 10,000 bales have changed
hands, at fully previous rates. The auctions are ex-
pected to be brought to a close this week. In the pri-
vate market there is a full average business doing in
British Wools, at,fullprices. Last week's imports amounted
to 1,631 bales from Algca Bay; 498 ditto from Ham-
burgh; 75 from Mogadore; 630 from Port Philip; 62
from St. Petersburgh; 128 from Odessa; 726 from Eu-
patoria; and 107 bags from Lisbon. From the official
returns, it appears that the total importations into the
United Kingdom during the eight months ending on the
sth ult., were 48,470,0641b5, against 42,563,8111bs
during the same period last year.

Captain HOLLAND, R.N., drew the attention of the

Health by the district registrar of All Souls, which
threw a slur upon the parochial authorities, and which
contained many statements at variance with facts, and all
extremely exaggerated.
After some observations by several speakers, the con-

AUSTRIA.

Letters from Pesth of the 29th of September (pub-
lished in Lloyd), state that it was understood in that
city that the concessions to the garrison of Comorn
would include the granting of passports to foreign
countries to all those compromised in the rebellion,
it being obligatory upon the insurgents to leave Hun-
gary within 48 hours. There was also a report afloat
that 600,000 florins would be granted to the inhabitants
of Comorn for " the raising of that city from its
ruins ;" and it was even believed that some arrange-
ment would be made for the redemption of the paper
money in actual circulation.
The Ost-DeutsChe Post, on the other hand, states
that the troops in the garrison were to receive eight
days' pay, and that the compromised leaders were to
be allowed to depart. The same paper adds that the
capitulation had been already confirmed by the Em-
peror. According to the Breslau Zeitung there were
7,000 regular troops and 18,000 honveds in Comorn.
