MARKET NE WS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY

The present week's arrivals of English Wheat having been on an
unusually limited scale, the stands were scantily filled with sam-
ples. On the whole the demand for that article was firm at, in most
instances, Monday's advanced currencies. In Foreign Wheat very
little business was transacted, yet the holders were firm, and would
not sell except at-extreme figures. Bonded Grain was a mere tirtf.r,
almost nominal in value.' The sale for Barley was tolerably firm,
and previous rates were well supported ; but Malt commanded very
little attention. Oats moved off firmly at rather more money, while
Beans and I'eas were held at extreme rates.

DEATH OF SIR ALEXANDER MONTGOMERY CUN-
NINGIIAME, BART.—We have to announce the demise of the above
baronet, who died on Monday week at Skaldon, Ayrshire. He was
son of the sixth baronet,whom he succeeded in 1837. The late baronet
was one of the claimants to the dormant earldom of Glencairn. His
brother, now Sir Thomas Cueninghame, succeeds to the family ho-
nours and estates.
THE ASH AND THE OA R.—A correspondent, who last
year anticipated a wet summer, because the usual prognosticator of
such a season had appeared in the ash opening its leaf before the
oak, expresses conticleice in the prevalence of dry weather generall3
throughout the summer, because he has this year, as on many similar
occasions, observed the oak to be considerably in advance of the ash.

FIRE AT DEvoNronT.—At half-past three A.M. 011 '
gunday, a fire broke broke out in the molt-house of Mr. Thomas
Hosband's brewery, at Morice Town. Engines from the dockyard,
Caledonia, and belonging to the town and fire-offices, were soon in
attundance, and the suction hose of the dockyard engine having been
placed in a large tank on the premises, the delivery was so powerful
that the slates were driven off the roof by the concentrated body of
water, and the flames were speedily extinguished, the damage,
which might have been most extensive, being only between 3001•
and 4001.
