BRUSSELS, Nov. 18.—The average price of wheat in the
week ending on Saturday, the 15th of November, was 241.
73c., and that of rye 18f. 76c. The exportation of both wheat
and rye and of rye flour is prohibited.
The Chamber continues the debate on the address.

We are assured that the King has just invited the Com-
mercial Council of Brussels to make an arrangement with
the Government for the purpose of suspending the city toll
on butchers' meat, from the Ist of January to the 30th of
June, 1846.
The Rhenish Observer adds the following details relative
to the marriage of Mademoiselle de Rosny to those pre-
viously published :—" The Duke of Bordeaux, as the head of
the family of the Bourbons, presided at the ceremony, ac-
companied by the Duke de Blocas. The moment when the
Duchess of Angouleme gave her benediction to the bride, was
very affecting. The members of the Imperial family of
Austria were not present at the wedding dinner • they retired
immediately after the religious ceremony. The Empress is
aunt to the Prince of Lucca, and it is affirmed that she will
leave her fortune to him. The Correspondent of the Cologne
Gazette says that Prince Metternich was likewise present at
the marriage.
The Moniteur publishes an analysis of the various opinions
on the probable causes of the disease in potatoes, presented to
the Commission in the department of the interior by M.
Bourson, Minister and Secretary of the Commission.
MEMEL, Nov. s.—The lateistorms have caused considerable
damage on our coasts. Three ships have run aground, the
crews of which were happily saved. Two steamers, which,
onithe 30th of last month, fired some guns as signals of dis-
tress, were happily towed into our road by the Hecla. One
of these steamers was the Victoria, bound from London to
St. Petersburgh, with between thirty and forty passengers ;
it has suffered much damage, and had exhausted its stock of
coals. The other, the Smertz, of fourteen guns, 250
men, of the Imperial Russian navy, bound from Cronstadt to
Copenhagen, was considerably damaged.—Universal Prussian
Gazette.

The Earl of Radnor has given a donation of ten pounds for
the forthcoming dinner in aid of the Metropolitan Benefit
Societies' Asylum, with permission to add his Lordship's
name for a Vice-Patron. Dr. Bowring, M.P., has also sent a

DEEP SEA FISIIING.—A letter addressed by Mr. Demp
ster, to the editor of the Edinburgh Advertiser, on this subject,
appears in another column. It appears to us that Mr.
Dempster has well met the objections which have been made
to the project for organising companies for the prosecution of
deep sea fishing. It is of the utmost importance that means
should be adopted without delay, to provide for the defi-
ciency of the potato crop. A cheap and good supply of fish
woull go far to make that provision. We trust, therefore,
that these companies will be organised forthwith.

Miss Burdett Coutts, who has been on a visiting
tour in the North, previous to leaving Edinburgh, early in
the week plaeed 1001. in the hands of the Lord Provost, for
the benefit of the PM Of the city.
