LAST NIGHT'S MAIL.

The address to her Majesty by the Mayor and Corpo-
ration of Dublin, on the subject of the food-laws, is the
theme of general comment in the city, and it appears to
be the prevalent opinion that it will materially strengthen
Sir Robert Peel's hands in repealing the duty on corn,
should he be so inclined.

Martha Browning and Samuel Quennell were executed
yesterday morning.

MARK LANE CORN MARKET-YESTERDAY

At this day's market there was a short supply of English
Wheat, which enabled factors to realise a further advance of Is
per quarter ouer the currency of this day week.
_ _

Free foreign goes off in retail at late rates. Bonded held
firmly, but few transactions were reported.

There was no change in the value of barley, malt, beans, or
pease, all steadily maintain our previous currency. _

Our arrivals of oats are small this week. Neceisitous buyers,
in partial cases, had to pay 6d per quarter more money; but
all buyers act so completely on the reserve that the

can hardly be quoted is getieral

SMITHFIELD MARKET YESTERDAY

Since this day se'nnight the imports of live stock into Lon-
don have been moderately good, they having amounted to 40
oxen and cows, together with 114 sheep from Rotterdam ; while
from Schiedam, per the Attwood, we have received 47 oxen, 30
cows, 1 bull, 300 sheep, and two pigs, in for the most part fair
average condition. To-day we bad on sale 40 foreign beasts
and 190 sheep. The former found buyers at from ..el6 to .4'22.
the latter 35s to 34s per head. At the outports 70 beasts and
100 sheep have been received from Holland.

From our own grain districts, the arrivals of beasts fresh up
this morning were moderate. The beef trade was somewhat
inactive, at about stationary prices.
The bullock droves from the northern counties comprised
1000 short horns; from the eastern districts 300 Scots, short-
horns, &c. ; from the western and midland 900 Herefords, De-
vons, runts, &c. ; from other parts of England, 400 of variousbreeds ; and from Ireland 120 beasts.

The numbers of sheep were again limited, owing to which
the mutton trade was firm; the best old Downs producing 5s 2d
per lib.

Calves were in short supply, and steady demand, at very full
prices.

The pork trade ruled steady, but no improvement can be
noticed in the value.
