THE MARKETS.

CORN-EXCHANGE, AVG. lfi.
Our supplies fresh up this morning are by no means large,—
The Wheat trade is rather brisker, without any advance in
prices. The Oat trade still continues in a very stagnated state,
owing to the uncertainty of the porta opening for that article—
the buyers hold 'off purchasing until that circumstance is de-
cided. Deans,, Pease, and other articles, remain without
alteration.

His MAJESTY, on the occasion of laying the
corner stone of the new gateway at Windsor
Castle on the anniversary of his Birth-day, was
graciously please to grunt the distinction of name
to his architect by the change of WYATT to
WYATVILLE ; and It was a curious coincidence
that his son then attained the age of twenty.one,
and that he had present another of his offspring
one year younger, also born upon his MAJLsTv's
Birth-day.

have originated at
