The Toulonnais says that orders have been sent to
his Royal highness the Prince de JOINVILLE to send
one or two vessels of his squadron to Portugal.
The Moniteur, as we stated yesterday, publishes a
telegraphic dispatch, announcing the capture of Count
DAS ANTAS, and the Junta of Oporto.
The Courrier Francais says—

" We are assured that the council has decided on the re-
placing of Rear-Admiral Montagnes de Laroque, Commander-
in-Chief of the squadron on the western coast of Africa ; and
already the choice of his successor is under consideration.
Several superior officers have been ordered to attend at the
Ministry of Marine with respect to this subject. It appears
that the Government is desirous of profiting by this circum-
stance, and by the documents which have reached it from all
quarters, to modify the plan on which the cruising station
was established, as well as the instructions given to the com-
mandant of the naval division."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, QUdkTER TO THREE.

There was an increased business done yesterday in the
Cotton market at Liverpool, the sales being 8,000 to 9,000
bales. A moderate business was done in Railway Shares at
slightly advanced rates.
The letters from the West Indies, delivered yesterday af-
ternoon, are of a favourable complexion generally, and there
was every reason to anticipate the realisation of the hopes
entertained with respect to the yield of the crops. The
various improvements in agriculture, and the introduction of
central factories, also afford brighter prospects for the future.
There appears to be no particular movement in Mark-
lane to-day. The contradictory statements respecting the
potato crops serve to make the holders firmer than they
might otherwise be.
From St. I'etersburgh the accounts to the end of May fur-
nish many interesting particulars relative to the corn trade.
The navigation had been open rather over a fortnight, and
there were 556 vessels in Cronstadt harbour, exhibiting,
as is stated, " quite a forest of masts." The number of ves-
sels from abroad was expected to be larger than for thirty
years. Upon the recommendation of Government, measures
had been taken to supply the poorer classes with corn at a
reduced rate, compared with the prices which foreign com-
petition would establish; but there would be every facility
afforded for exportation. The arrivals of all kinds of
bread stuffs, including meal, were 6,000,000 tschetwerts, of
which 2,300,000 were sold for export to England, France,
Holland, Belgium, Hamburg!), Stettin, and Holstein. The
largest purchases for delivery are said to have been on ac-
count of Stettin ; and rye and rye-flour had been taken to the
extent of 30,000 ships' lasts. This caused a rise from 18 to
28 rix dollars per 16 tschetwerts in the charge for freight, and
this was agreed upon for repeated jouruies.
At Riga and St. I'etersburgh, the purchases for
England and Prussia had been rather less than they
would have been, but for the expectation that
the quantity obtainable from America will prove very con-
siderable, and parties writing from St. Petersburgh express a
doubt whether we may not have reason to regret our tardi-
ness. Be this as it may, the letters state that further orders
from German and English houses received just before the date
of these advices for purchases of grain to be delivered
in June could not be executed from first hands, and that, in
consequence, many houses were making a profit by reselling.
According to one estimate before us, the Russian supplies
would afford a surplus equal to nearly one month's consump-
tion of the countries believed to be most in need thereof,
a quantity which, even allowing for a later harvest by two
or three weeks, would probably be adequate, now economy
in the use of breastuffs is the " order of the day."
The accounts received from Portugal have excited again a
very lively interest, and whatever may be the result, few
seem to relish the somewhat " tricky" manner in which Das
Antes and his force was captured.
The Funds have improved to-day, and have still rather an
upward tendency. Consols have been marked 88 to 88WI for
transfer, and 88.3 for July. Bank Stock is firm at 196.
The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have touched
883(4, and the Three per Cents. 8714. Exchequer-bills have
been marked 3s. to 6s. premium.
The Foreign Securities have been very dull again. Not a
transaction is officially noted in Portuguese Four per Cents.,
but the old Bonds have been quoted 80 en. Spanish Five per
Cents. are 22, and the Three per Cents. 34, being steady.
Russian Bonds have been 109;4 to 110. Dutch Two-and-
a-Half per Cents. brought 581/t
Railway Shares have been higher, with a moderate busi-
ness doing. The French lines are not so buoyant as our own.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

--
Very limited supplies of English Wheat have come to band
for our market this week, coastwise as well as by land car-
riage ; hence the show of samples of that grain was exceed-
ingly small. The attendance of buyers was by no means
large, yet the demand for all kinds of Wheat of' homeproduce
was firm, and Monday's quotations were steadily supported
in every instance. On the whole, a large business was doing
in Foreign Wheat, the imports of which have amounted to
11,540 quarters ; but, though some of the importers refused
to sell except at is per quarter more money, we can notice
no actual improvement in value. The quantity of Barley on
show was small, and the inquiry for that article may be con-
sidered steady, at full prices. Malt was in short supply, and
fair demand, at late rates. The Oat trade was steady, at very
full prices. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour, without
alteration.
