MARKET NEWS.-(YESTERDAY.)

CORN-EXCIZANGE.
Since Monday scarcely any fresh English Wheat has been
received for our market, coastwise or by land carriage, eon'
sequently we had an unusually small quantity on offer.
descriptions commanded a very steady sale, and in some on
stances a further slight improvement in value was obtaineu
far selected parcels of both white and red. Owing to the
high rates demanded by the holders of foreign Wheat, the
amount of business doing in that article was small, yet Pre.
vious rates were firmly supported. Barley moved off free] ,lY
at the late advance in the quotations. 'The show of NA''
being trifling, the factors refused to sell except at a rise of le
per quarier. Oats, Beans, Peas, and Flour were in slue
supply, and fair inquiry at Monday's prices.

DETERMINED SUICIDE.—On Monday rnornirs be'
tween twelve and one o'clock, a young man, named ;•P
nista
Mooner, residing with his parents in John's-court, Golden•
square, committed suicide in a most determined manner,-try
strangling himself. The deceased had been for some time in
a desponding state, owing, it is supposed, to some love affair.
On the previous night he returned home apparently in better
spirits, and shortly afterwards retired, as it was thought, to
his bed-room. At the hour above-named the deceased's bra
ther, on entering the water-closet, was alarmed to fin d him
suspended by a silk handkerchief from an iron hook, with
his feet touching the ground. He immediately cut hint
down, but life was quite extinct.
BURGLARS DISTURBED.—On Monday morning the
family of Mr. Forman, a tradesman, residing at No. 16,
Surrey-row, Blackfriars, were suddenly alarmed by burglars'
About half-past, five o'clock, Mr. Forman hearing a noise it;
the room where he was lying, suddenly rose up in bed, Oa
was much alarmed by seeing two men walk into the apart'
ment. He leaped out of bed, but the thieves effected their
escape, leaving much valuable property behind them which
they had tied up ready for carrying away. They had 1?!.1:1
sacked the drawers in the upper rooms of wearing SPP'
and other things. They left behind them a skeleton kept.a
quantity of lucifer-matches, and various implements used 11/

soon after five o'clock in the afternoon, just as the cottun
factory had given over working, a number of boys and girl'
went to have a slide on a pond formed by what is tenor

were unavailing. As more than half an hour elapsed bulb"

STATE OF THE NORTH OF SCOTLAND.—SiRee Otir
last, we are happy to state that no farther disturbance hal
occurred in Inverness. No grain, however, has been shipped;
and the Morayshire sailed on Friday night without
completed her loading. To be prepared for any emergency
that might occur, the magistrates on Thursday swore 11!
upwards of 200 special constables, but their services have not
been required. Over the north generally quietness has been,
restored. This has been accomplished, in the majority of
instances, by assurances being given to the people that Meal
will be placed, in ample quantities, within their reach.
at fair prices. Morayshire.—Order has very generally been
restored in Morayshire, though it had been judged necessary
to procure the presence of military from Edinburgh,haVlnq
in addi.
tion to those from Fort George, 100 of the 76th Regiment
having been brought by steamer and landed at Burghead on
Monday morning. The shipment of grain was then resumed,
and the two vessels, the loading of which had been inter-
rupted, were got under weigh. At Garmouth two or three
of the rioters (women) have been apprehended.—lnverness
