The Stock Market is very good again to-day. Con-
sols have been 831 to 84, although business is not active
at those prices. The arrangements for sealing the
account tell against the Bears, and hence the improve-
ment, even in the face of the accounts
from Germany, which appear to excite some
anxiety, and the doubt respecting the turn
which matters will take in France and Italy. The

The Foreign Securities have been rather fluctuating.
Spanish Five per Cents. have been 134 to 12k, and the
Three per Cents. 234 to t 4. Portuguese Old Stock has
been at 70. Brazil Bonds have been quiet at ;
Mexican are 16i k ; and Peruvian have touched
30f to 30i, the Committee of Spanish Ameri-
can Bondholders having received a favourable
e,.mmunication from their agents at Lima, which
holds out the prospect of an early arrangement of
the claims of the bondholders. Grenada Stock is at
about 14 to 154. Dutch Two-and a-Half per Cents.
have been 43 to 4, and Russian Bonds 86 to 87k.
In Railway Shares a fair business is doing, and prices
are firmer.

The Brazil mail furnishes no intelligence of parti-
cular interest, the items being given in another column
of 'I he Sun. From Buenos Ayres we are advised that
the war in Corrientes was at an end, and that General
Urquiza had returned. Some relaxation of the rigorous
measures adopted against the shipping of Paraguay had
been permitted by Roses, and it is devoutly to be
wished that the River Plato may shortly be re-opened
to the commerce of the world, and relieved from the
petty vexations of blockades, &c.
At the Cape of ~Good Hope, up to March 8, there
was a continuance of tranquillity on the frontier. The
colony had been greatly refreshed by abundant showers.
The commencement of the blockade of the Elbe, &c.,
is of bad augury for the merchants connected with
foreign trade, and causes much disappointment after the
recent confident assurances of Lord Palmerston.

British mercantile marine. During the year 1847 there
were reported inwards 538 ships, of 191,170 tons, which
had been absent from the United Kingdom more than
twelve months. Some of the vessels were away thirty
months and upwards, and a large number about two
years. The number of British registered vessels
which made voyages to and from the ports of the
United Kingdom in the year 1846, excluding repeated
voyages, and all vessels not liable to the payment of the
merchant seamen's dues, was 2,410,939 tons. The num-
ber of apprentices on board these ships. was 20,202.

and colonial trade.

Although the quantity of Barley on show was small,
that article, from the malting season having been
brought to a close, and the distillers and others being
fairly in stock, was a slow sale ; yet last week's prices
were fairly supported. We have again to notice a very
inactive inquiry for all kinds of Malt. In prices, how-
ever, no change took place. The quantity of Oats on
sale being by no means adequate to meet the wants of
the dea!ers, the Oat trade was somewhat active, at an ad-
vance in the currencies paid on this day se'nnight of
from 6d to is per quarter. Beans were in moderate re-
quest, at about last week's currency. The supply of
English was small, that of Foreign tolerably extensive.
Very few Peas were on offer. All kinds were firm, at
very full prices. Indian Corn and Meal were held at
late rates. Flour was a slow inquiry, but not cheaper.

At Hull, and the various other outports, about 550 head
of each kind of stock have been landed in fair average
condition, chiefly from Hamburgh and Rotterdam. The
. supply of foreign stock on offer, to-day, was somewhat
extensive, and of fair average quality, especially as re-
gards that of the Beasts and Calves. All breeds met a
very dull inquiry, at drooping currencies. With home-
fed Beasts we were heavily supplied, even the time of
year considered, while their quality was exceedingly
good. Although the attendance of both town and
country ht.!). ers was large, the Beef trade, owing to the
large number of Beasts on offer, and the prevail-
ing warm weather, was exceedingly dull, at Friday's
decline in the quotations of from 2d to 4d per
Whs. The highest figure for the primest Scots
did not exceed 4s per 81bs in any instance. At
ethft_close of business, a large number was turned out un-
sold. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridge-
shire, we received about 1,600 Scots and Short horns ;
from the North
900 Herefords, lien), Western, and Midland Districts,

NEWMATE AND IMILDENI3.OII.I..
During laot week, the arrivals of country killed meat
for these markets were on a very limited scale. From
Hamburgh 10 baskets came to band. The supplies on
offer slaughtered in London have been comparati%ely
small, if we except those of Beef and Veal. Beef has
met a very slow inquiry, at a decline in the quotations
of from 2d to, in some instances, 4d per Blbs. Other-
wise the demand has ruled steady at very full prices.
Nearly 600 carcasses of foreign meat, killed in London,
have been disposed.

BOROUGH AND SPITALPIELDS.
The imports of Potatoes last wet k were confined to
only 200 tons from Antwerp. Coastwise, and by land
carriage, the arrivals have been seasonably good. Prime
qualities have moved off steadily, at extreme ratesl but
other parcels are a dull inquiry.

11023.011GH HOP MARKET.
The plantation accounts being considered somewhat
more favourable than last week, the demand for even
the finest Hops of last year's growth is in a very inactive
state, and prices, from some of the holders being anxious
sellers, are with difficulty supported.

WOOL.
Large public sales of alum' Wool were commenced
on Thursday. The quantity advertised is about 20,000
bales. So far as the auctions have as yet progressed,
the biddings hare been somewhat active, and, in most
instances, prices have been supported. The sales will
be continued during the whole of the present week. The
imports since Monday last have been confined to 55
bales from Antwerp, 28 ditto from Calais, and 28 ditto
from liamburgh.

TALLOW.
Our market continues in a very depressed state, owing
chiefly to the present warm weather, and the prospect
of heavy arrivals from Russia. Prices have fallen fully
Is 6d per cwt. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted at 48s per
cwt. Rough fat is selling at 2s 9d per albs.

HOUSE OF LORDS.—(THIS DAY.)
The house resumed the hearing of appeals to-day
after the Easter recess. The Peers present were—the
Lord Chancellor, Lord Campbell, the Earl of Yarbo-
rough, and the Bishop of Hereford (Dr. Hampden).
ROWLEY V. ADAMS.
Their Lordships were occupied the whole morning
with the arguments in this case, which came before their
Lordships upon appeal from the judgment of the Master
of the Rolls, before whom it was argued for several days.
The case appeared likely to occupy their Lordships for
some time, and we refrain from entering further into it
till the arguments are in a more advanced stage.

VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY.)

His Honour did not sit this morning till eleven
o'clock.
