BRUSSELS, OCT. 30.—The editor of the Moniteur
states that in giving the price of rye in the last report,
from the 18th to the 25th of October, there was an
error in saying it was 16f. 03c. per hectolitre. The
price was only 14f. 60e. Thus there was a fall of
72c. upon the price of the preceding week.
The determination of the Bank is highly approved
here; far from thinking it unnecessary, we wish that
it had come forward more promptly, by which much
evil would have been averted. Nothing can be more
evident than that the large houses are able to stand
and meet their demands; not only the small ones in
the country will do the same, but that the whole
commercial world is influenced thereby.
This we know is not the first time by any means
that a Government has stepped forward at such a
time. In 18E1, for instance, the French Govern-
ment came to the aid of the merchants by a loan of
several millions. In 1846 and 1847 the Austrian
Government put a stop to the powerful crisis in rail-
ways by purchasing a large number of shares on its
own account. We may confidently hope that as we
have been partially affected by the distress of our
English neighbours, so we may experience the results
of the favourable change there.
VIENNA, Ocr. 23.—The stopping of the Liverpool
bank has had a bad effect on Bourse to-day ; the
advices from London also continue unfavourable, and
one of the first houses is said to have been obliged to
discount (it is affirmed the sum of 400,0001.) at nine
per cent. at the London Bank. Although there is a
good deal of anxiety on our Bourse, we are, however,
very steady, and the only thing we can wish is that
the corn prices may fall, as this will obviate much
evil. The harvest was so unusually luxuriant, and
yet prices maintained themselves this week wheat at
15fl. to 16fl. per metzen ; rye, of which there
were very large amounts, a little lower than last
market day.
KONIGSBURG, OCT. 25.—Nothing whatever was
doing in the corn market in consequence of the un-
favourable reports from England and Holland, and
the prices have fallen considerably.
DANTZIC, OCT. 25.—Very slight variations have
taken place here last week ; the prices for rye, which
Wad fallen, remained steady. The prices of spirits has
risen again. We have had very unsettled weather;
sunshine, wind, and rain alternating with each other,
but the temperature has been extremely pleasant.
BERLIN, OCT. 27.—The money crisis in England
causes daily fluctuations here. In consequence of
the sums of gold forwarded to Hamburgh and Lon-
don the Friedricks-d'or and the Louis d'or, which had
risen respectively to 1-3 and a, suddenly fell last
week 1 per cent., which is quite an unheard of
event in our money market. The Hamburgh Bank,
which had sent quantities of gold bars to London,
has therefore required transmissions of silver from
Berlin.

THE HAGUE, OCT. 28.—8 y a royal decree of the
29th September it is stipulated that the decree of the
6th October, 1840, relative to the distillery of potatoes
shall continue in force till the 15th October, 1848.
THE CHOLERA IN MOSCONV.—ST. PETERSBURGII,
OCT. 21.—The report that the cholera had broken
out in Moscow has, we are sorry to say, been con-
firmed. Fifteen persons, viz., eleven men and four
women, have been seized with it. They belong
chiefly to the lower classes, and had been previously
ill from eating fruit, and being exposed to the wea-
ther; of these fifteen persons nine have died. A
week before it appeared at Moscow a case occurred at
Serpuchoff, in the Government of Moscow, for a
traveller from %Voronesch, who arrived there on the
23d September, sickened and died soon after. The
case, however, remained isolated, and from the re-
ports received by the Minister of the Interior it ap-
pears that, independently of the cases which have
occurred in Moscow, the epidemic has not shown
itself in any other part of the Government of the
same name.

Accounts from Warsaw state that the Emperor
Nicholas left that city on the 17th October, on his
return to St. Petersburgh.
CONSTANTINOPLE, OCT. 13.—Our local journal as-
sorts as a positive fact, that a dispatch has arrived here
from St. Petersburgh, fully approving of the last step
of the Porte in regard to the Turco-Greek differences,
viz., the demand made that the Greek Cabinet shall
make a personal apology to M. Mussurus, and the
enforcement of the compulsory measures in the event
of the refusal of the Greek Cabinet. The same journal
likewise states that a Russian note has also been re-
ceived at Athens, urgently recommending the speedy
termination of the dispute with the Porte, and the
adoption of decisive measures for the prevention or
suppression of the disorders in the interior.
PRAGUE, OCT. 23.—The works of the viaduct at
Karolenthall are proceeding rapidly. Eight large
arches of the two bridges from Jerusalem to Hertz
Island, and from thence to the left bank of Moldavia,
as well as eight arches on Hertz Island, and 27 from
the Causeway to the Karolin, are already finished.
On the whole there are 44 arches already completed.
The other 16 are being worked at with great rapidity,
and some are nearly ready. Two other large build-
ings in Karolin, viz., the gasometer, are almost ready.
