THE LATE WRECK OF THE NEW CosmEnclAL.—The
Committee of Lloyd's intend, at the next general meet-
ing of the members, to propose that the silver medal of
that distinguished body be presented to Captain George
Davies, R.N., of the Coast Guard-station at Penzince,
as a mark of their appreciation of his brave and humane
exertions in proceeding with the boat's crew under his
direction to the Bressons Rocks in a tremendous sea, at
the imminent peril of his life, and thereby being the
means of rescuing therefrom the surviving crew of the
schooner New Commercial, wrecked thereon on the 11th
instant.

CORK, JAN. 24.
The supplies of home grain this week are somewhat
larger, the receipts amounting to: —W heat 409 barrels at
16s to 20s 3d per barrel; barley 1,487 barrels at 10s 8d
to 12s 6d per barrel; oats 6,420 barrels at 8s 3d to 105
per barrel. Whew-, still manifests a declining tendennil
but oats and barley are unchanged in value. In prepared:
and foreign wheat there is no -business passing. Price

continue nominally the same as last quoted, but to effect
sales a reduction should be submitted to. A trillig
business has beEn done in prepared barley at late price:,
V, ry little has been done in oars also. Holders are more
firm in their demands, aed are looking for higher ra,„„tet
which has had the effect of checking operations. "
quote the value of black 9i 6d to 9s 9d, of white cats 109
6d to 10s 9d per barrel, free on bord. The flour tole
continues Exceedingly dull and languid, and the business
passing is of the most restricted ani retail character'
Prices continue nominally as last quoted. The demata
for Indian corn is very trifling, and the salts making 11.%-
altogether titer of a retail nature. Prices are the sewe
noted in our last, purchasers not coming for*ard so as '-
induce holdels to make a reduction. Indian meal id en-
