TILE BUNGARIAN DIET.

The following are fuller particulars of the open-
ing of the Hungarian Diet on Saturday, as has been
briefly noticed in a telegram. The judex curia
Count Apponyi, standing on the lower step of the
throne, read the royal message, the substance of
which was that the King, having kept his word,
sent with confidence his greeting to the legislative
body of Hungary; he bad full confidence that there
was no obstacle, no misunderstanding which could
not be surmounted by good will and sincerity. The
King placed his hopes in the Diet which he had
convoked to re-establish the constitution, to consoli-
date it, and to adapt it to the needs of the time,
but particularly also to crown him, after he had
taken the coronation oath, with the holy crown
of the first King of Hungary. The King intends
fully to satisfy the just demands of the nation,
and expects from it that it will respect the
authority of the King and the maintenance
of the empire. The speech then dwelt upon the
ir development to be given to the diploma of
October and the extension of constitutional go-
vernment to the whole empire, the rights of Hun-
gary being guaranteed. The King expressed a
hope that by a pacific solution of a question so im-
portant to the people of the whole monarchy, the
Hungarian nation would follow the example of its
ancestors, who had always known how to adapt
the Hungarian constitution to the wants of the
time. The King regretted that he had not been
able to give to the re-establishment of the constitu-
tion all the extension that his paternal heart de-
sired. Regard to the unity of the empire required
that the views of the different nationalities should
be first ascertained. The questions relating to those
Hungarian laws which threatened the rights of the
sovereign and the safety of the monarchy were
provisionally suspended and those laws would be
submitted to the diet for revision. The speech
concluded by announcing the transference of the
diet to Pesth.

Many parts of the speech were applauded, but
those relating to the patent of February were re-
ceived with murmurs of disapprobation. All the
magnates and about 140 deputies were present at
the opening. Count Apponyi, M. Deak, and the
Primate were received with cheers.

THIS DAY'S MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was moderately supplied with English
wheat, and on the whole the samples on offer were in tole-
rably dry condition. For all kinds the demand ruled very
inactive, yet no further change took place in prices com-
pared with Monday last.

The show of foreign wheat was large. Buyers purchased
with great caution, and in some instances the rates obtained
were decidedly against the seller.
Floating cargoes of grain were in slow request, and the
quotations had a drooping tendency.
Fine barley moved off steadily, at full prices ; but all
other qualities were very difficult of sale.
In malt a limited business has been transacted, on former
terms.

The oat trade was dull, and, to effect sales, lower rates
were submitted to.

Beans and peas realised quite previous quotations, and
the demand for them ruled steady.
All kinds of flour sold slowly, at, in some instataces, rather
lower prices.
