MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was very scantily supplied with all kinds
of English wheat. Although the demand for that grain
was not to say brisk, Monday's improvement in value was
well supported.
Foreign wheat, the show of which was moderate, moved
off slowly, yet prices generally were firm. Floating car-
goes commanded extreme rates.
There was very little doing in barley, at Monday's quo-
tations. In the value of malt we have no change to report.
The oat trade ruled dull, but no change took place in
prices.
Beans, peas, and flour were unaltered in value.

THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS.—LIVERPOOL, Tuesday.—
The Royal mail-ship Lightning, Captain Enright, of tile
Black Ball line, Failed for Melbourne, at noon to-day,
with the usual mails, 370 passengers, and a full cargo
of merchandise on freight.
THE LATE ASSAULT AND "DUCKING" AT THE CAN-
TERBURY CAVALRY BARRACKS.—Some further steps
have been taken in this matter. The young man (Steer)
having addressed a letter to the Commander-in-Chief
(Lord Hardinge), fully detailing the particulars of the
treatment he was subjected to on the occasion in ques-
tion, his lordship has transmitted the communication to
the commandant at Canterbury, for the purpose of hav-
ing the allegations therein contained inquired into. That
inquiry is now going on, and the affair is beginning to
assume a somewhat serious complexion. The chief
object, therefore, of the investigation is, to ascertain
Who the parties concerned in
the " ducking " are, and
to what extent, if any, culpability is attachable to Lieut.
Anderson.—South-Bastern Gazette.
