CORN EXCHANGE, FEB. 18.

A few parcels of Wheat, Indian CAirn and Corn Meal, and a
moderate supply of Flour from the United States, with the ad-
dition of two cargoes of Russian Wheat, and one of Egyptian
Beans, form our main supplies from abroad since Monday last ;
the fresh arrivals from Ireland and Coastways are, at the same
time, trivial.—The American exports are not expected to con-
tinue in quantity until the opening of the canals in the States,
when it is probahle their prices will assimilate more nearly in
proportion with ours than they have done for some time past.
Although we have not received any lively reports this week
from other markets, the trade here upon the whole assumed a
more firm tone than during the past two days, without, how-
ever, any decided improvement in prices, except for Indian
Corn and Corn Meal, which, upon a more extended inquiry,
'have realized rather higher rates ; good fresh parcels of Ameri-
can Flour have also found a steady sale, at the full prices of our
last.—The general bearings of the trade at our Corn Exchange
to-day, appeared fully toeontirm the foregoing remarks.—Ent,_
-a lighndirlatr wheats"were smeante-tird moderate extent, and
the millers evincing rather more confidence, paid Id. to 2d.
over Tuesday's rates; whilst good Foreign samples, though not
in lively request, were Id. per 70Th. dearer. States Flour, upon
a fair inquiry, was held firmly at an advance of 6d. per barrel,
but was not taken freely at the amendment : home-made and
Irish, commanding somewhat more attention, realized a slight
improvement in value. Barley and Malt, exciting little notice,
merely sustained our last quotations. Beans, attracting a fair
demand, fully supported late prices; and for Pease, rather
higher terms were partially acquired. Oats, coming very spa-
ringly to hand, fully maintained our last currency, and very
fine well prepared mealers may be deemed the turn dearer.
Oatmeal ruled nearly the same as last noted. Of Indian Corn,
with transactions daily for Irish account, the middle descrip-
tions have obtained an advance of 6d. per quarter ; and Indian
Corn Meal, continuing in improved request, made 6d. to 9d.
per barrel more money.

THE STANDARD AND THE MERCURY.

In his publication of Tuesday last, the Mercury. con-
siderably to our surprise—for we were not at all aware
that to anything that we had been doing could be attri-
buted that " wastyne sicknesse" under which his bulk,
strength, and lively spirits have been recently falling
away—fell foul of us in the following paragraph of his
notices to correspondents:—

"STANDARD MORALITY.-Our Crescent contemporary hag
adopted a mode of advertising, and especially of placarding the
town, which has for its object the vain attempt to palm off his
publication as the only Tuesday paper published; the only one
that can be read in Manchester that day; in short, to perpe
trate a practical hoax upon the public, under cover of a wink
quibble. The salvo to his very flexible conscience is, that he
uses the word "weekly"—as a distinction for fact's sake, but
not for the sake of the intended impression, as his typography
on the walls decidedly shows."
We dare say we should have foregone making any
reply to so trumpery an imputation as is here attempted
to be conveyed—set ii down as an ebullition of old womanly
spleen—and forgot all in an hour after its perusal. On
Friday, however, we found him reiterating his censure on
most immoral conduct; and even resorting to very myste-
rious threats of punishment. Then, and not till then, we
felt ourselves bound to say a word or two in self defence.
Our contemporary says—so far as we can understand
him—that "as our typography on the walls decidedly
chews, " it was our intention to have conveyed the idea
that he himself was defunct; that there was no Tuesdar'a
Mercury published. Our readers, if any of them are too
elderly to discern moderately-sized type, will perhaps. put
on their spectacles, and give us their opinion of the size
of the type in which this word "weekly" was given.
We only give one letter, for the word itself would not
come within the column—

This was an appeal from a decision of the Arches
of Canterbury, in which the Rev. James Shore, of Britea
town, Devon, who was ordained a priest of the Chug t
England in the year 1829, but in 1844 became a dissel,
ing minister, and took the oaths and signed the deeht',

of letters of request issued by the Bishop of Exeter, u,t

under the Church Discipline Act, (3d and 4th Victo
for having officiated in an unconsecrated chapel or b
hag without license or authority, and contrary to the 1;,
junction of the Bishop of Exeter, and admonished to a
stain from offending in like manner in future. The /I;
pellant, on the trial, protested against the proceedinge:4
the ground that he was not amenable, inasmuch as he IP.,
ceased to be a clerk in holy orders, having, from COescid

and become a Protestant Dissenting minister. The P'
test was overruled by the Judge, (Sir H. J. Fust) sn

Birkenhead, near Liverpool, Jan. 8, 1547.
Sir,—l have been-afflicted with a severe cough and shortness
of breath, for nearly eight years, and after trying various re-
medies, did ndt find himself better. I purchased a small box
of KEATING'S LOZENGES of you, from which I found great
benefit. The second box, 2s. 9d. size, completely cured me,
and I can now breathe more freely, and am a* free from cough
as ever I was in my life. Hoping that others, similarly afflict-
ed, will avail themselves of so certain and safe a remedy.
I remain, Sir, yours faithfully',

Pear Air,—l have much pleasure in testifying to the merits
of your Cough Lozenges, known as " Keating's Lozenges." I
have been troubled with a hacking Cough for many years past,
but at a recommendation of a friend I was induced to try your
Lozenges, and am happy to say after using two boxes of them
I find myself perfectly restored. I have recommended my
friends to use them.—l am, yours truly,

EXPRESS FROM PARIS,

The arrangements for' the Paris banquet have been de-
finitively made. rt will take place to-day (Tuesday) at
noon, in the Rue de Chaillot. Negotiations between the
liberal Conservatives and members of the Opposition for
having the banquet put off, had, after some promise of
success, failed. The way from the Place Vendome to the
Barriere de l'Etoile, Champs Elysees, through which the
procession to the banquet will pass, will be lined by,10,000
National Guards, unarmed, but in uniform, and all sym-
pathisers.

- The news from Italy is:important. The constitution has
been well received at Naples, and negociations were going
on favourably.
At Rome there was great agitation on the 11th. The
people want a constitution, which the Pope is not inclined
to give. Lombardy was generally agitated.

Wolverhampton to-day good dry Wheat realized last week's
prices, and in some instances for prime quality a trifling ad-
vance was obtained.
