TWO O'CLOCK.
The Foreign Market continues very heavy.
QUARTER TO THREE.

The correspondence received by the Columbia steamer is
very voluminous. Generally speaking, the commercial ad-
vices do not seem to be of so decided a character as the last,
the markets being unsettled.
In Canada, domestic produce sold pretty well, but British
goods could only be got rid of at a loss. The Neilson " gang''
was determined. to be as troublesome as possible, but they had
lost their power.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.)
COLONIAL MARKET.
There was a fair amount of business transacted in most
kinds of produce, and prices were fully supported. The im-
ports were by no means large. For Raw Sugar the demand
was active, and rates were fully maintained. Coffee brought
full rates, but little business was done.
TEA MARKET.
The market was quiet, and prices were with difficulty sup-
ported. Company's Congou produced 2s. 4d. cash.
TALLOW MARKET.
Prices of Russian Tallow were steady, but the demand was
limited at 475. per cwt. The stock is larger than last year by
3,500 casks.
WHITECHAPEL HAY MARKET.
Our supply was rather short, the demand good, particularly
for the fine qualities, which fully realised our present prices ;
the middling and ordinary sort heavy of saie. Clover, 41. to 61. ;
Meadow Hay, 3/. to 51. ; Straw, 21. 2s. to 21. ss.

SUDDEN DEATH. Yesterday morning, at
eight o'elock, while Mr. Smith, belonging to the Court of
Chancery, was waiting for the Hertford coach at the Bell and
Crown, Holborn, he was seen to stagger, and fall very heavily
on the ground ; when lifted, he was found to be dead.
Last night, a few minutes past eight'o'clock, the
inhabitants residing in Coventry-street, Ilaymarlet, v Are
thi own into great alarm by the sudden giving way, in nume-
rous places, of the fronts of two houses, Nos. 26 and 27, Co-
ventry-street; No. 26 in the occupation of Mr. Cordwent, a
cheesemonger, and No. 27 in the occupation of Mr. Taverner,
bread and biscuit-baker. Immediate prevention must be takon
by shoring them up, otherwise they will fall before the inmates
can remove from out of them. The houses are particularly old,
and in a very dilapidated state.
GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—A of
the trams for some hours took place on Thursday in the Box
tunnel, owing to some of the carriages going off the line. The
passengers continued " boxed up" during the whole time, to
their very great annoyance and terror. —.Bath Journal.
