THE SUSPECTED FENIAN MAN-OF-
WAR,

Last night it was generally reported that a vessel
fully armed and equipped as a man-of-war had been
seized in the river Medway by the authorities of .the
Government on suspicion of being intended for the
service of the Fenians. The statement, however,
turns out to be nearly untrue ; the ship, instead of
being the property of the leaders of the Fenian
conspiracy, has been ,built in this country for the
Columbian Government, and as she was being fitted
out as a war frigate, the circumstance gave rise to
numerous suspicions. The statement that she was
intended for the use of the Fenians is without the
slightest foundation, and when the necessary proofs
of the intended destination of the vessel is laid
before the authorities, she will be at once released
from custody and allowed to proceed to her destina-
tion.

MARKETS.--This

MARK LANI.J.

We have again to report a quiet trade for all descriptions
of English wheat. The fresh arrivals, although only
moderate, have, together with the supply remaining un-
sold from Monday, been amply sufficient to satisfy the
wants of the few millers in attendance. The prices are
quite equal to those quoted on Monday.
In foreign wheat the transactions have been by no means
extensive, nevertheless late rates have been well supported.
The show of samples is tolerably good. For floating
cargoes of grain the demand has been inactive, on former
terms.

The barley trade has ruled quiet, at late rates.
Malt has been in moderate request on former terms.
Fine oats are firm in price, but heated and inferior par-
cels are difficult to sell.

Fer both beans and peas the inquiry is steady at late
rates.

Flour moves off slowly on former terms.
