The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office this morning :

MUNICH, JAN. 24.

Yesterday all the Ministers had teudered their
resignation, which, however, was not accepted by
the King.

The following are extracts from a private letter
dated Marseilles, 22d January, which has been
received at Mr. Reuter's office :

Business is very dull in grain. The rumours of
war which circulate here oblige our merchants to
be excessively cautious. They will also not under-
take for distant dates, or they demand prices out of
proportion to the quotations of the day.

Oats are in demand for March, lBfr. 50c., for 240
itres is offered, but our merchants hesitate to con-
tract even at 19fr.

Two thousand bales Yura flour, marked " Rene-
lain," have been sold at 39.50 ; the same mark of
an inferior quality was offered at 36.50. These
flours have been sold in large parcels to our bake.
houses, the former at 40.50, and the latter at 39.50.
I believe that it will interest you to read the
following list of the arrivals of grain which have
taken place during the past year. We have re-
ceived:—

Loads. Hectolitres.
Wheat. 1,850,000 amounting to 2,960,000
Oats.
Beans ..... 8,495 13,590
Maizo
Barley ..... 211,980 )7 339,160
Rye 32,710 52,330

T0ta1.... 2,634,695

4,653,596

The importation of grain has decreased in the
two last months. In the year 1856 we received
about nine million hectolitres of grain; the last year
about five millions and a half. Hero follow the
items of the preceding year, which may serve for
comparison :

_
Loads.
Hectolitres.
Wheat 2,524,432 amounting to 3,639,091
Oats 270,000 „ 650,000
Maize
Barley . 173,500 „ 277,600
Bye 129,885 ~ 191,816

T0ta1.... 3,456,960 „

5,333,135

From this list results that the arrivals of only
common kinds of grain have augmented in 1858 in
in consequence of the scarcity of crop.
There was last year a considerable trade in
flour. The corn measurers, particularly those of
Aix and Ailes, have worked without cessation, in
order to satisfy the enormous wants of Spain, in
part also of Algeria, and even of Corsica. The
measurers of Marseilles, who possess, altogether,
about 250 corn meters, have measured not less than
one million of bags of 1221,- kilogrammes weight
each. Independent of this enormous quantity, we
have received from the interior, and more especially
from Meld 'Or and the Jura, almost 1,200 bags,
which have been transported in great parcels by
the Lyons railway to the Mediterranean.
Russia is and will always be the granary of
Europe, it is from there that we have received the
greatest part of our wheat and oats. Our commu-
nications with the Black Sea, and the Azof are
also very frequent. Then comes the Danube,
Turkey, Egypt, Greece, Algeria, Lombardy, Tus-
cany, and the States of the Church, which have
only delivered insignificant quantities. These
supplies of grain have found a sale in Spain and
also in Provence, Languedoc, and some other parts
of the interior of France.

It would be difficult to conjecture to-day the
future as regards this article ; all what can be said
is, that the actual prices are too low, and will only
rise in the event of Spain enacting protective
duties, or in case of political events of importance
occurring to affect them.
Fresh recruits have arrived here to-day from the
Pyrenees. During the last two months 3,000 at
least have been despatched to Algeria, who had
been previously exercised here. It is said that
troops will be recalled from our colonies.

Our materiel are taken from the arsenals at
Paris, Lyons, Toulouse, Metz, and Lafere. We
have at present eight millions of cartridges, and
expect to receive four millions more.

The Minister of War has sent to Marseilles a
detachment of workmen, who will arrive to-morrow,
to erect ovens for the purposes of the army.
The naval commissariat at Marseilles has bought
rice, coffee, sugar, and has announced for the Vith
for public tenders—

50,000 kilos Sifted flour.
50,000. „ ....Rye flour.
20,000 litres ...Vinegar,
195,000 „ ...Wine (Yin de campagne).
This auction• is in no way connecteda with the
very important public auction which took place
at Toulon a ft; nac aff v.
