SUN-OFFICE, Querlow past Throe.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)

Lord ABERDEEN and Sir J. GRAHAM visited Sir
R. PEEL this morning, at his residence in Whitehall-

gardens.

The Duke of BUCCLEUCII will leave town for Scot-
land as soon as the new Ministerial arrangements are

completed.

It is rumoured this morning that overtures have
been made to Mr. GLADSTONE to join Sir R. PEEL's
new Administration, but nothing positive is known
on the subject.

In the Court of Chancery this day Lord Lynd-
hurst announced that he would deliver other impor-
tantjudgments on the first day of next Term, from
which we infer that his Lordship reckons with cer-
tainty that Sir Robert Peel will be able to reconstruct
his Cabinet.

®PROVISION FOR CHRISTMAS.-111r. Robert. ..-11..er,
poulterer, of Boston, has killed during the present weok, for
the London Christmas market, 2,400 geese. 1,000 ducks, and

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS.
CITY. QUARTER Ti) TRREE.
There was a quiet market for Cotton at Liverpool on Sa-
turday. Sales 3,000 bales without change in prices.
A considerable degree of excitement continues to be wit-
nessed in all circles here at the now turn that has taken
place in the Ministerial appointments. It will be seen below
that the quotations of the public securities have advanced
upon the probable return of Sir Robert Peel to power; and
all that is now most ardently desired Is that the "Great ques-
tion of the corn-laws may he settled with the earliest pos-
sible speed. Trade and commerce must languish until the
real intentions of the Government upon the matter has been
arranged.
The advices by the West India steamer, partly delivered
on Saturday afternoon, bring satisfactory intelligence, in the
main, respecting the condition of the principal islands. Slowly
it is true, but in a manner that promises an increase
hereafter, immigration was progressing from more
than one quarter. Sierra Leone continues to fur-.
nish occasional supplies of labour, and the Hill Coolies
are a resource to be depended upon, although it is com-
plained that their introduction was rather an expensive
affair, and that several merchants had obtained Madeira
labourers, quite as efficient, on more reasonable terms, and by
virtue of private engagements. The weather in Jamaica was
moister, and therefore better for the ensuing crop.
As yet there are no advices of the receipt of the American
President's speech. The heads of this document are under-
stood to have been in the possession of a select few here, but
as to the document itself all parties interested must await
the arrival of the next packet, as no doubt it will be received
by one of the liners.
Consols for the Account have advanced from 92% to
93%, and the market is new extremely firm. The last price
on Saturday afternoon was 92%, the opening value to-dav
was 93%. Now a few sales have made at 931 ; Reduced
Three per Cents. have risen from 92y to 93%; and the
Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. from 94i to 959%. The
advance in Exchequer-bills has been ut trifling. Bank
Stock has risen from 200 to 202.
The Foreign F.:nds are also firm to-day. Spanish at 2q74

There is a slight tendency in the Railway Shares to ad-
vance to-day; but very little business is in progress.
