GERMANY.

The accounts from Berlin give yet more favour-
able statements as to the KING'S health ; his MAJESTY
having been able, for the first time since the attempt
on his life, to attend Divine service in the chapel of
the palace at Charlottenberg. On the following
morning thy KING was greeted by a grand perform-
ance of music under the windows of the palace, as a
congratulation on his recovery. Subsequently the
Court removed to Potsdam.

Tne new law,on the press and public meetings has
been already enforced in the seizure of the National
Gazette, and the dispersion of a democratic meeting at
Magdeburgh.
General VON RAUCH, one of the Adjutants of the
KING, died recently, after a long illtie-s ; though
holding no political office, he had considerable poli-
tical influence. The funeral was to take place on
an early occasion, in the churchyard of the Invalids.
The Austrian Lloyd's states that—
"There was a talk last year of negotiations having
been opened by our Government with the Egyptian
Government, for the purchase of a part of the
fleet of the latter. The question is now revived, but
it is probable that it will ciitu to nothing, as Eng-
land and France will persist in their opposition to the
arrangement."
HAYNAU is still continuing his butcheries among
the unfortunate Hungarians, as may be seen from the
following diplomatic statement :--
"The enormous lists of condemnations arising from
the late Hurigsrisn r• volution are still unhappily being
added to. Within the last few days a number of sen-
tences passed by the courts-martial of Pesth, Grospdar-
den, and Klauenberg, have been again published.
They consist either of impri.ontnent, dta,:h by powder
and shot, or hinging, the sentence of heath being ge-
neraliy commuted into several years' fortress impri-
sonment It is somewhat remarkable that there is a
great difference made in mitigating the sentenc- of
death, it it is to be by powder and shot, or by banging.
In a, recent instance., Field-Marshal Haynau mitigated
the sentence, of death by hanging to eight years' "Pri-
.otiment without irons, while two persons who had been
sentenced to be shot were condemned to 13 and 14 years'
imprisonment with irori.F."
It is stated in the Cologne Gazette that is believed
that, contrary to the interests of the country, the
Government of Sjx,,ny
is about to contract a mils=
tary convention with Austria, similar to what that
power concluded with Tuscany- The entry of the
Austrian troops is expected into Saxony, because se-
veral of the districts of Bohemia where they are con-
centrated, are in want of corn, whereas they were tor-
merly able to export it to S exonys
The Congress of States at Frankfort has resumed
its sittings ;
the entrance of the Plenipotentiaries of
Hesse Daru.stadt and Strelitz has been announced ;
Bavaria has withdrawn her declaration of reserve, or
objection to the admission of the Plenipotentiary of
the Grand Duke of Holstein-Lauenburg (the King

A private letter from Eckernforde states that on the
clippletion of the coast batteries mounted with the
18-punders taken from the Christian VIII., General
Wu.Liszzi ordered the officers left in curnmAncl to fire

RUSSI A.

The Ostsee Zeitung states that the unfavourable
reception of Prince SCIIWARTZSNBURG, the Austrian
Minister, by the Emperor of RUS,IA at Warsaw, was
not so much occasioned by any disapprobation felt by
the CZAR to the policy of Austria as by a cause per-
sonal to himself. The Emperor of AUSTRIA was in-
vited to Warsaw to meet his Imperial MAJESTY,
and accepted the invitation ; the Emperor of
RUSSIA was, therefore, both surprised and dis-
pleased when Prince SCIAWARTZENBURO arrived
bearing a letter of apology for the EMPEROR'S
absence.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TR 0 O'CLOCK.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 3,000 bales, and comprised 2,500 American,
100 Pernaw, deco., at lid. to 7-,Vi.; 200 Bahia, at 7Aft.;
and 200 Surat at 44d. 51d. tier lb.—ln Railway Shares
a good husiness was done, at firm quotations.
The Corn Market to-day bas been very quiet. The
arrivals of foreign wheat are 13,620 quarters, and of
English only 1,720 quarters.
In the markets for Colonial and Foreign Produce, a
good general business has been trrnsacted this week, but
soma concession in price has had to be made upon
sugar, coffee, and two or three other articles, the
arrivals being large. Shippers have operated rather
more freely, as the demand on the Continent is in-
credsing. The large wool auctions have commenced,
and 46,000 bales are advertised. The attendance is
good, and the biddings are tolerably spirited.
It appears, by the St. Louis papers, that the whole
western country is just beginning to feel the effects of
the failure of the wheat crop of last year. In Illinni
not more than one-third of a crop was raised, and in ether
states the deficiency was ♦ery great. The interior is
comparatively bare of breadstuffs, and it is expected
that many steam-boats employed on the western
rivers in the transportation of produce will soon
be laid up, on account of the absence of business.
Many flouring mills at the west have stopped
for the want of grain to grind, and will probably re-
main so until the next harvest comes in. This
state of things, in connexion with the enormous emi-
gration to California from the new states of the west,
have been the causes of the limited trade this year, aiA
the disappointment experienced by our merchants, in
not realising returns for their over-duo demands. Emi-
grants from the west to California have taken immense
amounts of gold, and merchants and others in the
country have, it is stated, departed from their legitimate
business, and made adventures to California, taking not
only all their entire capital, and means belonging to
others, but base involved themselves so deeply in debt
that the most favourable returns will hardly suffice to
extricate their embarrassments.

The committee of Mexican Bondholders have pub-
lished their report concerning Mr. W. P. Robertson's
mission and arrangement, and it may bo stated in general
terms that they disapprove of the mode in which the cot-
ton licences were sold, and doubt whether the amount
obtained was adequate, while they consider that the pay-
ment of various expenses incurred is contrary to Mr.
Robertson's oriOnal agreement, viz., to depend upon the
success of his mission, although they recommend
a liberal interpretation of that agreement. The new
proposal of the Mexican Government, as far as we can
judge, the committee very properly regards with disap-
probation. To allow of the cutting down of the in-
terest to three per cent. in perpetuity would be hold-
ing out, a premium to the future v►olation of engag merits.
"the pr,ci:e bearings of the last proposals of the
Mt xican Government are thus butumd up:—
Art. 1. Reduces the interest to 3 per cent. in perpe-
tuity; and
Art. 2. Prescribe that the present Five per Cent.
B ,nds shall be given up, and exchanged for Three per
Cents. _

In the Convention it was p.oposed to reduce the rate
of iutere,t to 31 per cent., fur ten years, ending ht Ja-
nuary. :859.

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

-
Notwithstanding that the arrivals ot English Wheat
during the pteiient week have been on the increase, -the
show of samples of that grain here to-day was small,
neverthelei,s, the demand for all kinds, owing to the
limited number of hu)ers in attendance, ruled very in-
active ai Monday's prices. From abroad 13.620 quarters
ot Wheat have come fresh to hand. 6elected qualities
changed hands to a fair extent nt full rates of currency.
In the middling and inferior kinds so little was doing
that the quotations were almost nominal. No English
Barley ,ffering, and the supply of Foreign did not ex-
cee i 6,210 quavers. Grinding parcels were quite as
tli•ar. In nr,dtirig ar,d dis,illing sorts very little was
doing. 111%4, tbe supply ot which was on the increase,
movk d off "lowly at. late rates. Good sound Oats were
quite as dear, and thN value of other kinds wrre fairly
supported. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and Flour, as
last advised.

Our market to-day was tolerably well, but not to say
heavily supplied with Beasts, the time of year considered.
The primebt Scots commanded a steady sale at Monday's
(potations. Otherwise the Beef trade ruled heavy, at
barely stationary prices. There was a considerable in-
crease in the numbers of Sheep, all breeds of which moved
off slowly, but we have no actual fall to notice in value.
The supply of Lambs was extensive, owing to which the
demand was in a very inactive state, at a decline in prices
of from 2d to 4d per Sibs. From the Isle of Wight 359
Sheep and Lambs came fresh to hand. Calves were in
good supply and heavy demand, at barely late rates. In
Pigs next to nothing was doing. Mulch Cows sold
slowly at from 141 to 181 each, including their small Calf.
