SECOND EDITION.

TUESDAY, FEE. 21, 1854, Two O'CLOCK, P.M.

LIVERPOOL CORN. MARKET.—Tirrs DAY.
The limited receipts into this port up to Friday last
have been increased by a tolerable supply of Wheat, Oats,
and Flour, and a further large influx of Oatmeal from
Ireland, and a few small parcels of grain coastwise, whilst
the arrivals from abroad during the week comprise a mo-
derate, quantity only of Wheat and Barley, a fair supply
of Indian Corn, with nearly 25,000 barrels and 836 sacks
of Flour.

The market to-day was well attended by country buyers,
and a fair amount of business was done in Wheat and
Flour at rather higher prices. Wheat may be quoted 3d.
to 4d. per 701 b. and Flour 6d. to ls. per barrel over the
rates of this day week. Indian Corn was about is. per
qr. dearer. In Oatmeal no change, and in that and other
articles very little doing.

THE WAR IN THE EAST.

PARIS, MONDAY.—The Moniteur says the Emperor of
Russia's reply leaves no chance open for a pacific solution,
and France must be prepared to maintain, by the most
effective measures, the causes for which the persevering
exertions of diplomacy have been unable to secure the
victory. The Emperor Napoleon reckons on the patriot-
ism of the country, on the close alliance with England,
and on the sympathy of the governments of Germany.
The Moniteur expresses hopes that Austria in particular
will act in a befitting manner.—Threes closed 66f. ; Four
and a Half per Cents. 95f.
VIENNA, MoNDA.r.—The Chronicle's correspondent
telegraphs that Bucharest advices state that the Russians
have destroyed a Turkish vessel in Rustchuk, it being
bombarded from Giurgevo. A revolt has taken place on
the borders of Albania, Macedonia, and Thessaly. Insur-
gents are nearly 40,000 strong—Arnauts and Greeks.
Janina has risen, and has been joined by the inhabitants
of Merzowa and Agraffa. The Turkish troops from the
Montenegrin frontier are marching thither. The Vienna
Paper Lloyd's learns from Odessa that the Russian fleets
continually keep the sea. The Riissian captains state
that for years they have not known the weather in the
Black Sea so favourable as at this season.
Odessa telegraphic accounts of the 13th report grain
dull and freights advanced.
The Cologne Gazette has a despatch from Constanti-
nople of 6th, stating that the united fleets have saved
Shefkatil from an attack by the Russians.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDA.T, FEB. 20.

Their lordships met at 5 o'clock.
In reply to the Marquis of Clanricarde, the Lord Cue x-
CELLOR said that the bill for the Reform of the Eccle-
siastical Courts did not extend to Ireland ; but the subject
of applying a measure in relation to the Ecclesiastical
Courts there was receiving his attention.
Lord BE,OUGHAM said there was a necessity for a mea-
sure in reference to Ireland, but it might not be expedient
to make it exactly of the same nature as the one appliable
to England and Wales.
Lord BEAUMONT gave notice that on Friday he should
move resolutions, to the effect that, in the opinion of the
house, the honour and best interests of the country re-
quired effectual means to be taken to repel the unjustifi-
able aggression of Russia upon the Porte ; and that the
power and influence of this country should be exerted to
place the relations of Russia and the Porte upon such a
foundation as would secure peace to the Ottoman empire,
and give it the opportunity of developing its resources.
The House adjourned at twenty minutes past five
o'clock.

on the spot, it seems to be the general opinion that in a
mine of such a great extent —one mile and a half from
the pit's-eye to the extremity of the workings —there
ought to be more than one air-pit, and that if this had
been the case, the accident would not have happened. It
is not, however, denied, that the general system of venti-
lation of the mine is good.
It will be recollected that this is not the first great and
fatal disaster which has happened at this mine. In March
last an explosion took place in the same pit, whn 50 lives
were lost. On that occasion a subscription was entered
into, and upwards of £1,700 were collected in aid of the
widows and orphans of the victims. A committee was
appointed to distribute the funds so collected, of which
Mr. Winstanley, of Wigan, was elected secretary. An
allowance has since been paid weekly to several widows
and orphans, Saturday being the day of payment ; and it
is somewhat singular that the usual weekly payments had
not been paid more than two hours on Saturday last,
before the present lamentable occurrence took place. In
consequence of several of the recipients of this fund
having from time to time obtained employment, not more
than one-half of the sum subscribed has been expended ;
and it will, very likely, to some extent, be made available
for the support of those who have been reduced to a state
of destitution by the terrible calamity which has now
taken place.
The proprietors of the Ince-hall Company are furnish-
ing coffins, and intend to defray the entire funeral ex-
penses of those who have been victims to the accident.

THE RAILWA.Y. KING.—In the Court of Queen's Bench,
on Saturday, an action was brought by a French Count
(Seraincourt) against Mr. George Hudson, M.P., to recover
damages for breach of contract in the sale of 20,000 tons
of Scotch pig iron, for railway purposes in France. The
jury, after an hour's deliberation, returned a verdict for
the plaintiff, damages £4,000.

THE EASTERN WAR.

The first battalion of the Scots Fusileer Guards and the
third battalion of Grenadier Guards were inspected, this
morning, by Prince Albert, at the Wellington Barracks.
After going through their evolutions, the Prince ex-
pressed his extreme satisfaction with their efficiency.
Both battalions were in heavy marching order, and ap-
peared in high spirits. They leave on Wednesday
morning.

The answer of the Emperor of Russia was brought to
Paris on Sunday night, at ten o'clock. General Castel-
bajac has not yet arrived, and is not expected for a day or
two. It is again stated as certain that Prince Napoleon
Jerome will be appointed to the chief command of the
French expeditionary forces, which will consist of 45,000
men. In financial circles at Paris all hopes of amicable
arrangements are finally abandoned.
There was a rumour that Batoum had been bombarded
by the Russians, but its authenticity was doubtful.
The partial insurrections among the Greek population
are not deemed of much importance at the French Foreign-
office and it is expected they will cease when the Anglo-
French expedition appears in Turkey.
It is believed that orders have been sent by the Divan
to Omar Pasha to resume the offensive ; and it is ru-
moured he will make an attempt to cross the Danube at
Turtukai and Oltenitza, and make an advance on Bucha-
rest. Rifaat Pasha, who commands the army of reserve,
has quitted his head-quarters of Sofia for the right bank,
the point which commands Oltenitza. He was at the
head of 35,000 men, composed of picked regiments. It
was supposed from that movement that an important
operation was contemplated.
The condition of the Ottoman army was excellent. The
General-in-Chief had taken all his measures to repel the
Russians in case they attacked Kalafat; and the
Turkish Government had also made the most energetic
military preparations against the Russians, in the event
of their attempting to turn the position of the army in
the direction of Servia.

LIVERPOOL, FEBRUARY, 1854.

During the last nine months a great advance has taken
place in the prices of BLACK TEA, viz., in many instances
6d. to 9d. per lb.—this is accounted for—by the internal
revolution in China—and the progressive reduction in the
Import Duty on Tea in England. Consequently a formidable
spirit of speculation arose, calculating upon deficient supplies
in the face of increasing consumption.
Throughout the excited state of the market we neither ad-
vanced our prices nor altered the standard of our usual
qualities, aid have determined to continue the same till April
next—at which time a REVISED LIST OF PRICES will be fur-
nished according to the state of Imports from China.
As we confine our attention to the sale of Tea and Coffee—
observing QUALITY as a PRIMARY FEATURE in all transac-
tions—we are enabled to place these two very important
articles of domestic consumption before the Consumers upon
such terms that must tend to promote their interests as well
as our own.

GREAT FIRE AT THE GUTTA
PERCHA COMPANY'S WORKS, AND DEFEATED

BURGLARI ES.
THOMAS MILNER and SON have sincere pleasure in
communicating to their Friends and the Public the following
new endorsements to the claims of their HOLDFAST and
FIRE-RESISTING SAFES. The Fire at the Gutta Percha
Company's Works was of the moat intense character, as may
well be conceived from the nature of its food. Gotta Percha,
Oil. Naptha, reducing the buildings to a pile of gutted red-hot
walls. The Safe has been most severely tried, as theletter
testifies, and brought its contents out of the Furnace without
a singe upon them.
" Gutta Percha Company's Works,
" City-road, London, Bth June, 1653.
" St Its,—We consider it only our duty to inform you of the
entire preservation of all the books and papers* contained in
the large safe you recently supplied us with, although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of
our works. This is the more remarkable, as the intense heat
has in many parts melted the outside of the safe.
" We are of opinion that so successful a vindication of the
merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be too
generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty to use
th►s letter in any way you may wish.
" We are, Sirs. your obedient servants,
"THE GUTTA PERCHA COMPANY.
" HENRY FORD BARCLAY.
"To Messrs. Thomas Milner and Son,
47A, Moorgate-street, City, London."
* Including 5,000 worth of Cash and Bills.

"Scotland-road Mills, Liverpool, Bth June, 1853.
"GENTLEMEN,—Some time back I was indebted to you)
strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
large amount of cash, against the vit. lent and persevering
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had
last from you for my provision warehouse in Brownlow- bill.
The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves
had been at it for many hours, after which they got it out into
the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open,
they then filled the key-hole witl,l gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion ; but in which they were again foiled.
"I feel it due to your invaluable safeguards to give you this
testimonial, and shall strongly recommend them to all my
friends. Please send me another of the same size for my house.
"1 am, Gentlemen, yours respectfully,
"THOMAS LEICESTER.
