MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.
To-day's market was very scantily supplied with an
kinds of English wheat. Good and fine qualities moved
off steadily, at priced quite equal to Monday. In other
kinds only a moderate business was transacted, on former
terms.
There was a full average suprly of foreign wheat on
offer. On the whole the demand for most descriptions
ruled steady, at full quotations.
Barley changed hands steadily, at full prices, and WO
was a better feeling in the malt trade.
We had a slow sale for oats, at the late decline.
Beans supported Monday's currency. In the value of
peas and flour no change took place.
.The imports of the
latter are only 500 sacks from the oontment.

SINGULATI DEATH OF A LICENSED VICTIIALLEB.---
Yesterday, Mr. Wakley held an inquest at the Bank of
England, Praed-street, Paddington, on the body of Mr•
James Seymour Lane, aged 42, landlord of the Star and
Garter Tavern, Reading. It appeears that on Frills,'
evening, a few minutes before seven o'clock, an omnibus
arrived to meet the train jest starting for Reading. The
deceased, in attempting to get off the roof, appeared to
miss the handrail, and fell over on to the pavement. Ife
was immediately picked up, and being found quite in'
sensibly he was conveyed at once to St. Mary's MA"
pital. Verdict, "Accidental Death."
VICTORIA STATION AND PIMLICO RAILWAY.--The
Bill for this very useful undertaking (an outline of the
proposed plan of which appeared a few months mince)
ha-1 passed through the Standing Orders of the House 01
Commons, and it is stated by the half-yearly report of
the Brighton directors that their company has been the
first to consult the public convenience by securing the
URA of the terminus. There seems, therefore, every pro-
bability that this scheme will be speedily carried into
effect ; and, as the accommodation offered will not by
any means be col.fined to the Brighton Company, but
be available for all other metropolitan lines south of the
Thames, particularly those that lead to the Continents
that porti of the public which resides westward may
now reasonably expect that the want of a general West'
end station, so long complained of, will be supplied'
while a public benefit will be conferred by the relief
which such a station will give to the overcrowded
streets which form the only access to the London-bridge
terminus.
