THE BRAZILS.

FALMOUTH. SUNDAY MORNING.
We have had most awful weather here for the greater part of
last week, and there is no doubt that many wrecks will be
heard of by coming arrivals. The foreign schooner Elizabeth,
Elleatsen master, from Revica, bound to Bergen, was lost on
the western coast of the Lizard, and two men drowned. The
French barque Victorine, Daubourg master, from Havre for
Valparaiso, and the barque John Hayes, Wilson master, of and.
from London for Alexandria, have both put in here with da-
mage, and some others more or less, with loss of spars, sails, &c.
Last night, her Majesty's packet Penguin, Lieut. Leslie, ar-
rived, having sailed from Rio de Janeiro, Oct. 3; Bahia, 15;
Pernambuco, 22. She had on freight about .4'16,000, more or
less.

The Griffon arrived at Rio from the River Place on Oct. 1, in
thirteen days from Monte Video, but brought no mail or news
thence. The Griffon was being overhauled previous to her
sailing for England. The Dido had arrived at Rio from Cork,
and was refitting previous to her going down to the River
Plate. There is nothing learnt further by this packet of the
state of affairs in that place.
The merchant ship Posthumous put in on Sept. 30 at Rio,
having on board the commander and part of the crew of the
late British brig of war Osprey, lost at New Zealand ; and on
Oct. 15 the hired barque Palestine, having on board Sir George
Gipps and family, also had another part of the crew of the
same ill-fated brig.
The Devastation, bearing the pendant of Sir Chas. Hothani,
had sailed from Bahia, for Ascension, on the coast of Africa;
and the Grecian had left for the Cape of Good Hope and China.
The Antelope, being the first of the line of Liverpool steamers,
arrived at Bahia on Oct. 12, being the 29th day of her voyage,
and left next day for Rio.
The crops promised a fair average yield. The transactions
of the market for produce had been to a fair extent since the
sailing of the Gorgon ; in other respects business had been li-
mited for the same period. Coffee had further declined fully
50 reis, sales brisk. Sugar had had an advance on previous
prices. A fair business in freights.

Lord John Russell has accepted the Lord Rectorship of Glas-
gow University.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE.—YESTIADAY.
At this day's market there was a more liberal supply of
English Wheat, which met a brisk sale at an early hour at is.
per qr. over the currency of this day week. Free foreign was
held in many cases for a similar advance, but buyers generally
made their purchases at the previous currency for fine qualities,
whereas low sorts have been more in request for shipment to
Ireland, and a slight improvement realised. There is a good
export demand for bonded, but so little here the demand can-
not be satisfied.

During the week a considerable business has been done in
floating cargoes of Indian Corn, and there was a good inquiry
this morning. The Barley trade is steady in value. Malt a
slow sale. Beans and Peas without alteration. Our arrivals
of Oats being now moderate, enabled factors to proceed in
sales without any further decline, and there is less pressure of
foreign, and the trade wears a more steady aspect.
SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET.—YESTERDAY.
With home-fed beasts we were bnt moderately supplied.
The few prime Scots ou offer commanded a very ready sale at
prices fully equal to those obtained on this day se'nnight, but
the middling and inferior breeds, which formed the bulk of the
supply, were very dull, and somewhat lower.
The numbers of Sheep were moderately extensive, and of
prime quality. The best old Downs sold at late rates ; but all
other breeds were quite 2d. per Sibs lower.
In Calves only a limited business was doing at last week's
prices.

The Pork trade was dull at late figures.,
MONEY MARKET.—YESTERDAY.
Some of the weekly papers state that the Caledonia steamer
took out a large quantity of specie on Thursday on her voyage
to America. We have made inquiry in the proper quarter, and'
find it altogether untrue. In fact, she took out far less than
usual ; all on board was under seven thousand pounds.
The approach of the Consol account is rendering the market
rather feverish, but the price has been upon the whole rather
firmer this morning. The range has been from 944 to h, and
the gresent quotation 945. The rate of continuation is lower,
the price for the January account being buyers at 94k. Reduced
Three per Cents, were last sold at 930, the Three and a Quarter
per Cents 95g. Exchequer bills 912 pm., and India Stock 154.

RECALL OF HIS EXCELLENCY THE
FRENCH AMBASSADOR.
(From yesterday's Herald.)
We have it in our power to announce, in the most
positive manner, that his Excellency the Count de St.
Aulaire has been recalled from his high diplomatic duties,
as Ambassador from France to this country. by his
Sovereign. Although it was well known that the noble
count did not expect to remain here beyond two years
longer, his sudden recall has excited, perhaps unneces-
sarily, much speculation in the diplomatic circles.
His Excellency the Count de St. Aulaire is now in
Paris, and may be expected to arrive shortly at the
French Embassy from that capital, to have an audience of
the Queen to take leave of her Majesty, and to take his
farewell of the several members of the foreign corps
diplornatique.
In all future communications with the French Govern-
ment and Viscount Palmerston, the Count de Jarnac will
have to transact business as charge d'affiires, and will on
that account retain the possession of Hertford House. It
is generally said that some months will elapse ere the
Count de St. Aulaire's successor is appointed, and, en
attendant, the Count de Jarnac will discharge the diplo-
matic functions.

The Count Louis de Nosilles, the second secretary to
the embassy, is also about to leave this country for good.
We have been informed the count departs for France
early in January.
The Count de St. Aulaire has been ambassador here
since M. Guizot left this country to take office on the
dismissal of M. Thiers. Previous to that the Count Se-
bastiani was the ambassador extraordinary and minister
plenipotentiary.

. .
Other changes in the personnel of the embassy are
rumoured, but the above, we have not the slightest hesi-
tation to say, will be round strictly correct.

The Observer says that the Queen has presented to the
Duchess of Inverness a pension on the Privy Purse, and
there will therefore be no addition to the Pension List.
The Cambridge Chronicle says that Dr. Graham, Mas-
ter of Christ's College, in that university, has declined
accepting the bishopric of Sodor and Man.
The Hon. Grantley Berkeley has written a letter of apo-
logy to Mr. Visger, of Bristol, for the use of his intempe-
rate language to that gentleman.
RAILWAY NOTICES.—An extra London Gazelle, pub-
lished on Saturday, contains no less than 155 notices of
intended application to Parliament, during the ensuing
session, on the subject of railways.
The East India Company are now exporting large quan-
tities of London porter to the Indian presidencies, one
consignment alone being 1212 hogsheads, or 65,448
gallons.

A deputation on the subject of opening the ports for
the admission of foreign corn, duty free, had an interview
with Lord John Russell and tLe Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer on Saturday, at the official residence of the noble
lord in Downing-street.
CURIOUS INCIDENT.—On Monday last, as a train was
going to Didcot, a woodcock flew against the engine, and
was irorneuiately killed by the concussion; it was picked
up on the return of the engine, when its breast was found
with the skin torn off.—Oxford Chronicle.

ORIENTAL DIVAN.—Those who have not yet visited
this splendid establishment should not omit an opportu-
tunity, for the arrangements not only surpass those of
every similar hotel, but the viands are of the choicest
kinds. An excellent steak, cut in the London style, with
all the etceteras, is charged Bd., and it may be finished
with half-pint of splendid amontillado sherry, or fine
flavoured port, for one shilling. This is but a single,
article, but others are charged proportionately low; in-
deed, so low and so excellent as to have called from the
local press the following notices :
" The elegance with which it is fitted, the promptitude and
neatness with which every thing is served up, render it the
most fashionable restaurant."—Standard.

The dinners and suppers cannot be excelled for variety, or
lowness of charges."—Albion.

•• It consolidates the reputation of the proprietbr as a caterer
for the public."—Mail.
" Suitable to all classes—the wine is undeniable."— Times.'
In fact, it will be found that to every department there
is manifested a desire to accommodate the public, by the
proprietor, J. Feeny. A supply of London oysters re-
ceived daily A splendid new Russian bagatelle board f°r
sale.—Advertisement.
