MARKET NEWS.--(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-FRIDAY.

Compared with those of the preceding week, the arrivals of Eng-
lish Wheat up to our market since Monday have been tolerably good,
though by no means large. The weather being fine for harvest work
in the north, and the stands better filled than for some time past, the
demand to-day for Wheat of home produce was in a sluggish state.
The finest qualities of both Red and White, however, sold at the late
advance in the quotations; but the middling and inferior kiNds must
be considered Is per quarter cheaper, and a clearance was not effected.
Of fine foreign Wheat the show was small, nevertheless, the sale for
it was heavy, at an abatement of Is per quarter. 'lhe inquiry for
Wheat under lock w s trifling, hence holders were more moderate in
their demands. No new Barley at Market. Grinding sorts were in
request at full prices, but other kinds hung on hand. The demand
for Malt was not so active as on Monday, but we can notice no alte-
ration in value. Nearly 30,000 quarters of foreign Oats having come
to hand, the Oat trade was dull, and the inferior parcels had a down-
ward tendency. Beans and Peas supported Monday's quotations, but
Flour hung on hand.

~FJd.~'i'I3PIL~m.

The supply of Beasts being seasonably large, and the attendance- of
buyers small, the Beef trade was in a very sluggish state, and Mon-
day's prices were- with difficulty supported. From. Holland and Ger-
many we received 110 Oxen and Cows, 400 Sheep, and 13 Calves.
Sheep—the number of which was small—sold briskly, and previous
rates were readily maintained. In Lambs a steady business was
transacted, at full prices. Calves moved off slowly, and the quota-
tions had in sonic instances a downward tendency. Pigs were quite
as dear. Mulch Cows were selling at from 161 to 191 each. Suckling
Calves. 18s to 30s; and Quarter old Store Pigs, 16s to .21s each.
Beasts, 713; Cows, 98; Sheep and Lambs, 6,620; Calves, 342;
Pigs, 291.
NEWGATE AND LEADENNALL,

There Was rather more doing here, and prices were well supported.
1130110ITGLI HOP iviAnzzr.

Since picking has been commenced, about 2,000 pockets of New
Hops have arrived here from Keht and Sussex in good condition.
Nearly the whole have found buyers, at from 6110 s to 71 for Weald of
Kents, and G 1 Gs to Gi 14e for Sussex. In Yearlings a steady business
is doing, at full prices. The duty is called 165,0001 to 170,0001.

COLONIAL.
SUGAR. —The demand has rather fallen off, owing to the
very large arrivals. The fact is, however, that the contrary
winds have for a long time kept out supplies, and now they
are all coming in together. West India sorts are rather cheap
this week ; 100 hhds. Barbadoes went at 54s to 55s 6d for
fine yellow, and at 49s to 51s for mid. East India Mauritius
has been dull of sale, and rather lower, and Bengal does not
support previous rates, being at present in but limited
demand.

REFlNED.—Standard lumps have been 67s to 6Ss per cwt.,
and brown grocery lumps 66s to 66s 6d per cwt.
FOREIGN.—These samples have been quite neglected.
CoFFEE.British Plantation sorts are held for about pre-
vious rates, but there is very little doing. Low and mid
sell best ; ord to fine fine ord Jamaica has been taken at
72s to 75s per cwt. Ceylon has been dull of sale at 47s to
49s for low to good ord pale, but at auction 635 bags were
taken in at 47s for low good ord. Mocha has been in
some demand, but the supply is very limited. Fair and mid
clean garbled has been sold at 62s to 66s per cwt. Java, and
foreign sorts generally, have been dull.
COCOA.—Triuidad has been taken in at 42s 6d to 44s 6d
per cwt.
SPICES.—There has been a good inquiry for Pimento, and
full prices have been obtained. Low to fine is 3d to 33%d per
lb. A good demand has been experienced privately for Black
Pepper. Sumatra has realised 2%d to 2%d, and Malabar
31. Aid to 3%d. 2,512 bags Penang partly sold at 21/td to 3d
for damaged. Cassia Lignea has been quiet.
Rum.—There is not much doing.
SALTPETRE.—Thera is a full supply of this article, and
prices, therefore, are rather heavy.
RlCE.—Less animation has prevailed in the demand for
this article, and consequently prices are barely so high.
Bengal, low to fine white, has realised 19s to 23s per cwt.
Abroad the quotations keep up.
TALLOW.—There has been a firm market for P.Y.C., which
is in good demand at 41s 3d to 41s 6d per cwt on the spot
for new, and at 40s 9d to 41s for old. Town has been
41s 6d to 42s per cwt nett.
TEA.—The market has been steady, but there is not an
extensive business doing.

DRIJRYLANE THEATRE.—We are most gratified
to hear that every prospect presents itself of this establish-
ment being highly patronised during the ensuing season,
boxes and stalls being already secured by her Majesty and
her Majesty the Queen Dowager • by the Dukes of Devon-
shire, Leeds, and Beaufort; by the Lords Chesterfield, Shel-
burne, Seaham, Munster, Glamis, Suffield, Erroll, Dupplin,
Pembroke, &c. ; Count De oailles, Count Kielmansegge ;
Sirs C. Shakerl-y, Henry Webb, John Gerard ; Hon. D. Put-
teney ; CoL and Mrs. Fitch; Major White; Messrs. Baring,
Spencer Cowper, Errington,F.Gower' Da Bathe, C. Seymour,
Cunningham, Williams, Salomons, Goldsmid, Arcedeckne,
Twiss, Clayton, Hume, Beech, &c.
NEW SHELLS AND GRENADES.—Captain Billette, of
the French navy, has recently invented -new shells and
grenades, which are said to have greater destructive powers
than any hitherto known. These projectiles, when fired at a
ship, do not pass through her side, making a simple hole, but
explode in the act of striking, and cause a large rent, and
spread a combustible matter in every direction which it is
impossible to extinguish, and the ship struck cannot escape
from being burnt. Captain Billette has been appointed to the
command of the Meleager, in which he is to go into all the
ports of France to form depots of his shells and grenades,
and give instructions as to the mode of using them to the
mariue artillerymen.

WOOLWICH, SEPT. 25.—(From our Correepon-
dent..)—Th. Draw. isagie 2411. D. D. Owl.,
commander, left Woolwich at twelve o'clock to.day, with Rear.
Admiral William Bowles, one of the Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty, for Sheerness and Chatham. The Monkey steam.
vessel, Mr. Bryant, master-coinmander,left Woolwich for Dover
and Plymouth, and conveyed the party that brought the Dragon
steam-frigate to the river back to Plymouth on their return home.
Vice. Admiral Richard Matson visited Woolwich Dockyard to.day,
to witness the progress of the works on the Grampus, 50 guns, and
the Terrible steam-vessel. The latter is having her masts put up.

CRERTSEY FAIR, SURREY.--Yesterday, this autumn
fair was held in the usual fair-field at Chertsey. Although not
large, this is considered a good market for the sale and purchase of
lean stock. The supply of cattle this year was tolerably good, and
made the following prices :—Cows (with small calf), 15/. to 17/. ;
ditto down calving, 121. to 141.; heifers, from 71. to 91. ; boast,
grass-fatted, averaged 141.; lean stock, for stalling, from 6!. to 101.;
good Southdown ewes (early lambing) worth 265. to 28s. a head ; old
ditto, 17s, to 20s. ; wetherS, two guineas ; tags, '2ss. ; lambs, 16s.
There was a good sprinkling of horses, which, young and lit far
farming purposes, fetched 18 to 2eguineas ; inferior ditto met with
a dull market. • • , _ _ _ _

-ST. JAMES'S PARK.—During the last few days a
large number of workmen have been busily engaged in laying
down new iron pipes in St. James's Park, for the purpose of fur.
nishing Buckingham Palace and several of the Government offices
with a more abundant supply of water.
MONUMENT TO LIEUTENANT WYLDE.—We under-
stand it is the intention of some of the friends of the late Lieu.
tenant Wylde, R.N., to erect a suitable monument in Dunbar
churchyard to his memory, and that of his gallant associates, who
lost their lives in the cause of humanity on the 20th ult.—Edinburgh
Witness.

One of the women employed in cutting rags in the
mills of Messrs. Tanner, at Cheddar, lately made the discovery of
a 10/. note in ripping open an old pocket. It appears to have been
issued by Messrs. Cavenagh and Co., of Bath, who failed in 1P25.--

DEATH FROM EXCITEMENT.—Yesterday Mr. Baker,
held an inquest, at the Three Colts, Grove.street, Hackney.wick,
on the body of Mrs. Mary Harper, wife of a baker, residing in
Union.place, Betlinal.green. It appeared from the evidence of
the husband that the deceased had an interest in the above public.
house, which is to be pulled down for the formation of the Vic-
toria-park. A knowledge of that circumstance had unsettled her
mind, and kept her in suspense relative to the final disposition of
the property in question. On Sunday week last she was cupped
for pain in the head, and recovered sufficiently to attend to her
domestic avocations. On Monday morning she expressed a wish
to walk out with her husband, and just as he was ready, she was
seized with violent headache and pains in the eye. Her husband
immediately hastened for a surgeon, but she expired during his
absence. Verdict, " Natural death."

The Bishop of Exeter consecrated the new church
of Allhallows, Exeter, on Monday last.

DEATH OF Two BROTHERS BY DROWNING. —On
Thursday Mr► Baker held an inquest at the Duke of Sussex, Hag-
gerstone.bridge, on the bodies of Edwin William and William
Adolphus Payne, of the respective ages of eight and eleven years.
It appeared hem the evidence, that about half. past.one o'clock on
Wednesday morning, a man named Black was employed in paint.
ing and glazing at No. 9, Bridge.pllce, Haggerstone, when his
attention was suddenly drawn by observing' the head and hand of
a boy in the water:struggling beneath the arch of the !midge. A
lady who was also passing at the time gave an alarm. Several
persons immediately ran to the rescue, amongst whom was a young
man named John Devereux, employed in the East India Com-
pany's warehouses, at Poplar, who, seeing the danger of the chil-
dren, threw Mr his coat and plunged into the water. He dived
successively after the bodies for about two or three minutes, when
he was taken out in a most deplorable state of exhaustion. Both
bodies were ultimately taken out by a waterman by a boathook,
and conveyed to the Duke of Sussex, where several medical gen.
tlemen were promptly in attendance, who for upward: of two
hours ineffectually endeavoured to restore animation. How the
children came into the water was a matter of perfect conjecture,
and the jury, at the suggestion of the Coroner, returned an open
♦erdict in both eases of " Found drowned."

THE HAGUE, SEPT. 9.l.—Their Royal Hignesses
the Prince and Princess of Orange left the Hague the day before
yesterday for Stuttgard. The Goer Courant says the harvest of rye,
barley, wheat, peas, and oats, which was begun at a good time, and
in tine weather, has been almost wholly got in during three weeks,
in which the weather has been constantly fine. This is to be crate.
fully remarked, especially as we have now again much rain. The
quantity and quality are good. The S!ants Courant confirms the
melancholy accounts from Surinam. It says--" Billions fevers
have broken out among the new colonists, of whom 30 are dead,
and several others are confined to their beds," Later accounts are
rather more favourable.

TNE HAGUE, SEPT. 22.—We regret to say that
the day before yesterday, and yesterday in the evening, some acts of
violence took place against some mealmen. The police and some
military were soon at hand. Some persons, as we hear, were
arrested. To.day the mealmen's shops were again opened.

the Channel upon such a stormy night ; but they were soon
happily relieved by the courtesy of the committee, who de-
termined not to return till the next morning at half-past
nine o'clock, which gave them the greatest_ satisfaction, as it
enabled them to refresh themselves for the passage home,
and, as it turned out, in the morning the gale had not de-

THE UNITED STATES.
LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 25.—The packet ship Sea, Captain.
Edwards, arrived in the Mersey at an earl• hour this morn-
ing from New York, which city she left on the 3d inst.
The aspect of affairs had not undergone any change from
the date of our previous advices. The movements of the
United States' troops towards Texas are noticed in the
journals, but the details are uninteresting here.
The quotation of exchange on London on the 2d was
1091 to 110. Money continued in moderate demand at 6 per
cent. per annum.

The native American steamer Marmora, W. A. Page com-
mander, had sailed from New York for this port, on the
afternoon of the 2d inst., with 16 cabin anti 24, steerage
passengers. We have not received any intelligence of her.
The :ollowing is from the Nay York Herald:
E WAR.

"We have no further accounts from the seat of war in
Mexico or TexaQ, nor from New Orleans nor Washington.
Everything still remains in doubt, and enshrouded in mys-
tery, Rumours are thickening of every kind and variety,
but nothing tangible apppears on the face of them. Some of
the latest accounts state that the Meiicans have yet made no
appearance on the Itio Grande ; others fear that General
Taylor is in danger. It appears from the best information',
derived from various sources, that the War Department at
Washington has made some grave bluadera in fitting out the
expedition to Corpus Christi, where General Taylor has
fixed his head-quarters. It scents from this statement that
the artillery companies have been sent there without proper
cannons ; and that to render these troops of any service in
case of an attack "from the Mexicans this Government is
compelled to forward cancon fit fur service. • Strong com-
ments are made on this statement against the President ; but
we think with no justice nor discretion. If the fault has
been committed, it must rest with the head of the War De-
partment, Secretary Marcy.
"If there is any truth in the accounts we have received
from Vera Cruz, the Mexicans must have reached the Rio
Grande before this time. If they pass it, we may expect soon
to hear of some action of a very importalit nature between
the two armies. We hear nothing further of privateers, but
the anxiety of the republic is increasing every day, all being
eager to learn what will be the result of the declarations,
threats, and protestations put forth by Mexico, as well as
the preparations made by the United ,States Government to
repel attack."

EXPLOSION AT A FIREWORK
MANUFACTORY, AND LOSS OF TWO LIVES.
Between eleven and twelve o'clock yesterday forenoon the
inhabitants of Harlow West Marsh were alarmed by a loud
explosion, which was ascertained to have proceedod from a
manufactory of fireworks, carried on in a house situated in
a row of buildings known as the "Back-row." On arriving
at the spot alluded to, the spectators were horrified at per-
ceiving the scorched and mutilated remains of a man lying
in the yard of the house where the explosion had occurred.
The upper part of the house itself was on fire, but the flames
shortly afterwards subsided, and the lower part of the house,
the entire of which consisted of two stories, remained un-
injured. From an examination of the premises it was ascer-
tained that the explosion hadstaken place in a room on the
second story, carrying away the greater portion of the root,
and demolishing the wall separating the two rooms of which
the floor consisted. The two rooms presented a scene of com-
plete destruction, the furniture and other fittings being shat-
tered into innumerable fragments. Doubled up in a corner of
the room lay the body of a youth, dreadfully crushed, and
quite dead.
It appears that the entire house was rented by a man.
named Jackson, whose remains were discovered on the out-
side of the premises, and who, assisted by his son (the youth
whose body was found in the room), carried on the business
of a firework manufacturer. The workshop was on the upper
story of the house ; but in what manner the explosion oc-
curred, cannot, of course, be ascertained. It is a fortunate
circumstance that the explosion was confined to the upper
part of the house, as there was a large quantity of rockets
and other combustible material stowed away on the first
floor of the building. But little damage was sustained by
the adjoining houses, in consequence of the explosion having
evidently taken a perpendicular direction. An inquest on
the bodies will be held this day . (Friday), at twelve o'clock,
before Mr. J. Hammond, the deputy-coroner.

I DESTRUCTIVE FIRE—(Tan DAY.)—Between the
hours of four and five o'clock this morning a dreadful fire was
discovered in the shop of Mr. Wright, boot and shoe maker,
Wandsworth-road, known as the Railway Mart. The utmost
promptitude was evinced by the neighbours and police to
save the family, in which they succeeded, and in five minutes
the engine of Messrs. Beaufoy, chemical merchants, was In
full operation on the burning mass. Every exertion was for
a time useless, and the house from top to bottom was all ott
fire. The destruction of the adjoining houses was considered
inevitable, when, at this juncture, two of the London Esta-
blislnnent, with a West of England engine arrived. Water
was sufficient for all, and by half last four the fire was ex-
tinguished, but all the propertyof Mr. Wright was consumed,
and serious damage was also the consequence to the adjoining
houses. Mr. Wright is insured in the Sun and Iremit Fire:
offices.

BATES AND WASH-DOUSES FOE THE LABOURING.
CLASSES.—Yesterday the baths and wash-houses for the
labouring classes in the parish of St. Pancras, now in course
of erection mound the base of the extensive reservoir be-
longing to the New River Company, in the Hampstead-road,
were thrown open for the inspection of the public. The site
for this building, occupying about 7,000 square feet, has
been handsomely presented to the committee by the Nevr
River Company at the nominal rent of ss. per year, and the
suns raised by voluntary contributions for the purpose of
the erection amounts to about 600/. The building (the
entrance of which is in George-street, liampstearl-read)
extends around the east, south, and northern .0-
reservoir, and tue tarangeuieuts made and rapidly pro-
gressing towards completion will provide 30 single baths,
20 for men and ten for wetnon, 5 vapour baths, and 2 large
plunging baths. In the washing department accommoda-
tion is provided .for 64 washing compartments, &c. The
whole of these compartments are exceedingly commodious,
having steam-pipes and all other necessaries for boiling and
cold water, as occasion may require. The plunging baths are
very capacious, the larger being 60 feet long and 30 feet wide,
and the smaller 40 feet by 20. To a poor man or woman the
charge for a separate cold bath containing 60 gallons of water
will be one penny, and a warm bath tw-pence, fresh water
and clean towels being provided for each bather. There are
a few higher priced ths, dif:ering only from the others in
having more expensive fittings. The charge for the use of
a double washing-tub, with an ample supply of hot and cold
water, of the arepers, drying-room, and ironing apparatus,
will be at the rate of one penny for three hours. There is
but little doubt the establishment, when completed, will
prove of great benefit to the poor of the neighbourhood.
The establishment is expected to be got into operation in the
course of a few weeks, although it is stated that 3001, more
is required to effect its completion.

SOUTH SEA. STocic:—Yesterday a Quarterly
General Court of the Proprietors of South Sea Stock was held at
the Company's house in Threadneedle. street, Mr. C. Franks, the Sub..
Governor, in the chair. The Court was very thinly attended.
The minutes of the last Court were read and confirmed. The
chairman then said that the present was a half-yearly general.
Court, held in pursuance of the charter, at which it was necessary
to elect a Committee of seven gentlemen to inspect the bye.laws.
He then read the names of the gentlemen forming the present Cam.
mittee, and said that each of them had the necessary amount of
the Company's stock (9,000/.) to qualify them to be on that Com-
mittee, and he should, therefore, move that they be re-appointed.
The motion was put and carried. The chairman then said that,
in pursuance of one of the bye-laws, an account of the bond debt
of the Company would now be read. The secretary read the ac-
count, after which the chairman said there was no other business
before the Court, and it was thereupon adjourned.
ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN ri,AILWAY..--
An accident occurred to the luggage train, which contained a great
number of third-class passengers, on Tuesday morning, on its
journey from Exeter to Paddington. One of the trucks, ladeta
with timber, became disconnected, by the brtaking of a chain, from
the truck in advance, and swerving acroFs the up and down rails,
caused a stoppage on the line for upwards of two hours. The lug-.
gage.train, which left Paddington at 'nalf.past six, and the halt-
past seven and the half-past eight o'clock down trains, wore de-
tained close to where the accidcnt occurred until past ten o'clock,
when the line was cleared of all obstruction, and they proceeded
onwards at an interval:of five minutes between the starting of
each. The up-trains were also similarly delayed. Considerable
alarm was occasioned to tint third-class passengers in the luggage-
train, who, fortunately, with the exception of a few slight buises,
escaped unhurt.

DARING AND ADROIT ROBBERY.—Yesterday, be-
tween the hours of ten and three o'clock, a most daring and adroit
robbery was committed at the house of Mr. Scargill, residing ill
Stanhor:,e.street, Hampstead.road. It appears that Mr. Scargill
and cis niece are at present staying at Southampton, the house
being left in charge of an old domestic. Yesterday morning he re-
ceived a letter as he supposed from his master, with directions to
be at the Vauxhall terminus between ten and eleven o'clock, at
which hour the letter stated Mr. Seargi.'d expected to arrive in
town. Thrown oil' his guard by what he conceived to bea
genuine document, the man was punctual to his time; and alterhaa
waiting till after two o'clock returned home,
