IluussEts, Nov. 26.—The average price of wheat in the
week ending on Satarday, the 22d init., was '2sf. 25c., and
that of rye, 18f. 24c.
It results from the above average prices, as well as
from the laws of 31st July, 1834, and of 31st December.
1814, and from the proclamatioa dated that day, and the
11th of this month :

1. The exportation of wheat flour from the kingdom will
be prohibited from the 2d of December next. That the ex-
portation of rye flour continues to be prohibited.
The Minister of the Interior—seeing the laws of the
21st July, 1834, and the royal decree of 7th August, the
same year; considering that the law of 24th Sept., last year,
which prohibits the exportation of articles of food, has retained
the regulations respecting flour as under the law of 31st July ;
seeing the prices on the regulatory markets made out and
published for four weeks from 10th to 15th, and from 17th to
22d November, 1845; considering that the price of the
hectolitre of rye has during those two weeks reached the
rate of 24 francs—declares the exportation of wheat flour
from the kingdom is prohibited.

[* It seems that thi's should be wheat, rye not having even
reached the price of 20 francs. ]
This declaration which is to inserted in the official part
of the Moniteur Beige, and to be addressed to the Minister of
Finance for its execution, will take effect according to the
law of 31st July, 1834, on the 2d of December next.
Yesterday, in the opening of the sitting of the Chamber of
Representatives, the President communicated the King's
answer to the address.

FOOT RACE AGAINST TIME.EXTRAORDINARY
FEAT.—The long-expected match made by Mr. Bragg, the
proprietor of the North Star Inn, at Slough, with a sporting
character at Windsor, for a considerable amount, to produce
a man, within the present year, who would run eleven miles
within an hour, came off on Thursday afternoon, on the turn-
pike• road, near the King's Head, at Bedfont, between Staines
and Hounslow. The person who was named by Mr. Bragg
to perform this extraordinary feat was a celebrated runner
named Maxfield, known as the " North Star," who in May
last accomplished twenty miles in one hour, fifty-eight mi-
nutes, and thirty seconds. On Thursday the match was
performed over one mile of ground, in which, of course, there
were no less than ten turns. This was considered to be ra-
ther to the disadvantage of the runner. The start took place
between three and four o'clock. The result was that "the
North Star" gallantly won the match, but with only seven-
teen seconds to spare.
With deep reget we learn that another stoppage
has taken place—that of the respectable firm of Laberteuche
and Stafford, stockbrokers and notaries in College-green, and
that there are most distressing rumours of other establish-
ments, which, we sincerely hope, are void of foundation. The
than increase the ferment which unfortunately exists in the
object of every good citizen now should be to allay rather
money-market—more, we firmly believe, produced by panic:,
than from any real lack of funds or resources. There are
situations in which men become, spell-bound by the visionary
perils which enthral them; and
tear often effects more mischief than difficulties produce.—
in a crisis such as the present,

The works on the Salisbury and South-Western
Branch Railway are proceeding very rapidly. The line will,
it is believed, be completed by next April.—Wiltshire Inde-
