THE CORN TRADE.

GLASGOW, OCT. 4.—We have bad much wet during
the week, and this day is very rainy. With some isolated
exceptions the crop of this and the circumjacent locality
is housed. The yield is reported as fair, save that of
wheat, which is represented deficient in quality and
quantity; potatoes are near being exhausted, and likely
shortly to become a luxury. We continue to be well
supplied with Wheat both coastwise and from abroad.
At Grangemouth the foreign arrivals for the last eight
days amount to about 9,998 qrs. of wheat, 4,321 qrs. of
barley, 790 qrs. of oats, and 398 qrs. of beans. The
business effected since last week was in retail for imme-
diate consumption, at barely the rates of this day
se'nnight. Most of the new wheat offering is ill-con-
ditioned—soft and dampish—averaging from 581 b. to
601 b. per bushel, and ruling variously in price from 225.
upwards per 2401 b. At this day's market there was a
thin attendance, and the dealings were trivial. We
quote:—Wheat and flour 6d. to Is. per boll or sack re-
spectively below the currency of last Wednesday; barrel
flour, owing to the light stock thereof, scarcely cheaper.
Barley dull of sale, at a reduction of Is. per 3201 b. Oats,
new, yielded 6d. to Is, per 2641 b; and oatmeal Is. per
2801 b. Beans and peas declined 6d. to Is. per boll. In-
dian corn and meal scarce, and unchanged in value.
BIR➢IINGHAM, THIIREIDAY.—At Gloucester market,
on the 30th, the wheat trade ruled dull, with the turn in
favour of the seller. At Worcester, same day, an ad-
vance of ls. per quarter was realized. Barley Is. per
quarter lower. Oats, being in short supply, maintained
their value. Peas unaltered. Beans rather cheaper.
During the present week, owing to the decline in the
leading markets, the wheat trade ruled dull, but lower
prices have not been submitted to on any description.
More doing in the heavier descriptions of barley, but
light is difficult to dispose of in quantity. Oats offering
at a reduction of 6d. to Is. per quarter, and beans at a
greater decline. Grinding peas in demand, and fully
as dear. At this day's market there was a fair supply
of wheat, which found buyers readily at rather over the
currency of this day se'nnight. but we make no altera-
tion in our quotations. Barley nominally unaltered, but
low qualities were unsaleable. New Oats Is. per quarter
lower. Old ones fully as dear, and fine qualities scarce.
Beans Is. to 2s. per quarter lower. Peas maintained
their value.

THE REGISTRATION.
EAST SURREY.

Mr. Fish, the revising barrister, held a court on Wed-
nesday, at the Town-hall. Reigate, for the purpose of
going through the lists for that district.
No agent attended on behalf of the Conservative
party, but Mr. Russell and Mr. Jervis appeared for the
Liberals. There was only one objection made by third
parties, which was taken by Mr. Russell, on the ground
that the voter had disposed of his property, and this
upon the hearing was allowed, and the name was ex-
punged.

The :revising barrister sat yesterday at the Town-
hall, Kingston, to revise the lists of the parishes of
Kingston, Ham, Hook, Kew, Long Ditton, Malden,
Petersham, Thames Ditton, and Richmond.
Messrs. Russell and Jervis again attended on behalf
of the Liberal party, the Conservatives apparently not
taking the slightest interest in the proceedings, and no
agent appearing for them.
There were not any objections or fresh claims except
those made through overseers, and nothing of the
slightest interest occurred, the whole of the business
being gone through in less than two hours.

SOUTH LONDON MEDICAL SOCIETY.—Last night
the anniversary meeting of the members of this society,
which was established in 1844 with the view of advanc-
ing medical science, was held at the Southwark Literary
and Scientific Institution in the Borough-road; Dr. H.
M. Hughes, the President, in the chair. The chairman,
in opening the business, briefly recapitulated the objects
of the association. By means of correspondence with
country members, the reading of papers upon the sub-
ject of medical science, and the exposition of the prac-
tice employed in the various diseases to which flesh was
heir, they hoped in a short time to gain an amount of
information which would be almost invaluable. At the
present moment, especially when there was every fear of
the cholera visiting these shores, it must be obvious to
every one that the society might be the medium for con-
ferring immense benefits upon humanity. Mr. Hicks,
the honorary secretary, read tho report of the council
and the financial statement. It stated that during the
past session 18 new members had been admitted, and
though the attendance at their ordinary meetings had
not been so large on all occasions as they could have de-
sired, many valuable scientific papers had been laid
before them and discussed. The finances were in a satis-
factory state, there being a present balance of 811. Bs. 9d.
On the motion of Mr. H. Crellin, seconded by Dr. Lever,
the report was unanimously agreed to. Mr. Hilton,
F.R.S , was elected president for the ensuing session;
and after the appointment by ballet of other office-bearers
the meeting separated.
FATAL ACCIDENT TO A RAILWAY GUARD.-011
Tuesday forenoon, about forty minutes past ten o'clock,
David King. aged twenty-eight, the guard of the express
passenger train, was killed instantaneously about 1,200
yards past the Ferriby station, on the Hall and Selby
line, N 1 hero there is a bridge, on approaching which
Twist, the other guard of the same train, called on the
deceased to beware of the bridge. King was at that
moment strapping the luggage. As soon as the train
had passed through the bridge Twist missed King, and
looking round saw him lay upon the line. The train
was brought up, and King was picked up quite dead.
No one saw him go in contact with the bridge, nor from
subsequent examination of the corps were any marks
found which would render the opinion conclusive that
ho had been struck by it. It is possible he might have
fallen. He lived in Hull and was married but had no
family. _

THE SEWAGE MANURE COMPANY•—FINE OF 5001.
REMlTTED.—Yesterday, ;at a special court of the Com-
missioners of Metropolitan Sewers, held at Greek-street;
Lord Ebrington, M.P., presiding, the fine of 5001. which
had been imposed upon,the Metropolitan Sewage Manure
Company, for conveying away the water of the IKensing-
to❑ Canal, was remitted, and permission was given them
to replace their pipes, under the superintendence of the
surveyor of the commissioners, and subject to the appro-
bation of their consulting engineer.
NEW CAB, OR HACKNEY CURRlCLE.—Yesterday
another new vehicle made its appearance in the streets
of London. It is called the " Patent Curricle Tribus,"
and has seats for three persons, the front of the carriage
being open, like Hansom's patent cab, and the driver
sitting at the right corner behind. Unlike other hack-
ney carriages (the old coaches having long since disap-
peared), this is drawn by two horses, though only cab'
fares are charged. Some improvements have been made
in the harness, one of which is a steel bar fastened hori-
zontally across the backs of the horses to keep them
closer together—a great advantage in driving through
the crowded streets of the metropolis. The new curricle
has an elegant appearance, and excited much curiosity.
