PaoprcE.—ln most articles transactions have
been to a limited extent, there being a general
disinclination, to do business. For Rice, however,
the demand has slightly improved. Palm Oil has
been rather lower in price. In Tallow little or no
alteration, TO-DAY there continues a fair demand
for Sugar, at previous rates, the business, including
Saturday's sales, comprising 355 hhds. Demerara
at 31s, to 325. 9d., a small parcel of Jamaica, in
barrels, at 30s. 6d. to 335., 100 hhds. Surinam at
295. 6d. to 305., SO hhds. Porto Rico at 355.,
140 hhds. Cuba at 30s. 9d. to 315., and a small
mixed cargo of Pernams, afloat, for a near port,
at 17s. 6d. for brown, and 225. per cwt. for white,
both of low quality. We have nothing to notice
in Molasses, Rum, or Coffee. The Tea market
continues quiet, without alteration in prices.
There are no transactions to report in Rice or
Saltpetre. At auction, 40 bags Pimento brought
54d. per lb., 100 brls. Jamaica Ginger 465. to
50s. 6d. per cwt., and 10 tons Lima Wood £ll 15s.
per ton. We, have also to notice 40 chests Kurpah
Indigo at 2s. 9d. to 3s. 2d. per lb.
WooL.—During the past week our Wool mar-
ket has been a little less active, but former rates
are, however, filly maintained. English fleeces
are moving off freely at 121 d. to 131 d. per lb., and
Irish are also in request at 121 d. to 13d. per lb.
Foreign Wools,of the middle qualities,fit for clOth-
ing purposes, are much wanted, and realise high
rates, to supply present orders for army clothing.

METALS.-The market for Scotch Iron Itas
been much depressed during the week, and sales
have been made as low as 81s. 61 Since then,
however, prices have much improved, and the
market is firm at 83s. to 83s. 6d., cash, for store-
keeperg' warrants, f. o. b. at Glasgow. In other
articles very little doing, and prices without alte-
ration.

CURE OF ULCERS AND CIITA.NEODS DISEASES.—The
daughter of Mrs. Farlow, town carrier, residing in Maiden-
lane, Covent-garden, London, was afflicted for six years wits
ulcers on the right arm, and during that period she had the
best medical advice that could be procured, but without de-
riving any benefit whatever; her health suffered, and her
constitution became so impaired that no hopes were enter-
tained of her recovery. As a last recourse, however, the
mother tried Holloway's Ointment and Pills, and these un-
paralleled medicines in a short time completely cured the
.child, and strengthened her so much that she now enjoys the
best of health.

The letters have arrived. There is no additional politi-

The ship Nugent, with the head-quarters of the 25th
Madras Native Infantry, was missing; it was feared she
had been blown on the Andaman Islands.

The rumours respecting Russian intrigues in India now
attract little attention.

Prospect of crops good. Freights, £4 2s. Gd. to £4 7s. 6d.
CHINA, JULY 16.—Nothing had been heard of the
Russian fleet. The Pekin Gazette acknowledges the
formidable character of the insurrection. 40,000 rebels
had gone northwards from Nankin. The Abergeldie,
Rapid, and Hygeia had been lost—the latter had 500
emigrants on board, 370 of whom were left on the wreck,
and were supposed to have perished from starvation.

Thu inadequacy of the school accommodation provided
for the large and populous district of St. Mark's having
been long felt and acknowledged, the Rev. Wm. Pollock,
incumbent, has exerted himself zealously to have the de-
ficiency supplied, and, aided by the support of many in-
fluential gentlemen and ladies connected with the district,
has been so far successful in the object that a new school.
house is to be erected, the first stone of which is to be
laid by the mayor, this day, at two o'clock.
The intended structure is to occupy the corner of
Roscoe-street and Back Knight-street, and will be large
enough to contain daily, infant, and Sunday schools, to-

CAPTURE OF BOMARSUND.

AFTER a brave and obstinate resistance to the allied
forces, the fortresses of Bomarsund and 2,000 prisoners
have surrendered. The energy with which they defended
their position may be imagined when we state that, while
the investment commenced on the 4th inst., the capture
was not effected until the 16th inst. The land forces con-
sisted of 11,000 men under General Baraguay d'llilliers ;
and the bombardment by the fleets was conducted by Sir
Charles Napier.
On the 4th inst. the Phlegethon and Amphion, having
taken 'up a position where the enemy's guns could not
reach them, commenced a heavy fire upon one of the earth-
work batteries, and reduced it in half-an-hour, when the
men landed and spiked the guns.
On the sth the Stromboli, Amphion, and Phlegethon
directed their fire against the first round tower and long
fort, in order to distract the attention of the enemy and
permit the land forces of 11,000 men to secure their posi-
tion on shore. The centre wing of the army encamped
for the night in and around a large village at a distance
of two miles from the tower which they were destined to
attack. This tower, from its elevated position, commands
a great portion of the. surrounding country ; and here
General Baraguay d'Hilhers had determined to make the
first assault, as in the capture of this the key to the long
fort was secured. The small steamships were employed
all day in carryingprovisions, ammunition, &c., to the
shore. In the evening the Amphion moored in front of
the battery that had been destroyed, to prevent the enemy
reinstating their guns.

On the 10th the Penelope was placed in a very awkward
predicament. In attempting to thread the passage between
the two islands, she got on shore within range of the long
forts who played on her for two hours and a-half. The
Admiral had at once ordered all boats to her assistance,
and the Hecla and Pigmy came through the passage as
well, to attempt to tow her off. A signal to the Edinburgh
and Valorous caused them immediately to commence
throwing shells into the fort from ten-inch guns, which
they did with impunity, being without the range of the
forts. A little after twelve o'clock the Penelope was
removed from her critical position, the Admiral having
ordered all her guns to be thrown overboard, when the
Hecla at once towed her away.
On the 13th the first round fort opened on the Chassenrs,
as their field-pieces were crossing the valley. The French
now began the bombardment in reality. After half an
hour's practice they obtained a beautiful range, and kept
up all day a tremendous cannonade. By four p.m. they
had silenced three of the guns, and a flag of trace waa put
out from a port-hole : they demanded a two hours' truce
to bury their .dead, and made use of the one hour :Lila-

THE WAR.

A despatch, dated Vienna, Tuesday, says :—General Be-
butoff had defeated 60,000 Turks, near Kars. Three thou-
sand were killed ; 2,300 soldiers and 84 officers taken pri-
soners. Fifteen pieces of cannon, and the Turkish camp
fell into the hands of the victors.

[lt may be observed that this despatch gives no date,
nor even an indication of its route to the Austrian capital.]
A despatch from Warsaw, coming consequently from a
Russian source, confirms the news that the Turkish army
had been completely beaten and dispersed by General
Bebutoff, near Kars, in Asia.
Letters from Rutschuk, of the Bth, have been received
at Vienna. They state that 60,000 Russians were about
to be concentrated on the right bank of the Pruth, under
General Luders, in order to cover the Russian flotilla in
the Danube, which would be sacrificed by the evacuation
of Galatz.

Letters have been received from Berlin, of the 20th, to
the effect that, on the previous day, Prince Gortschakoff
had received the answer of the Russian cabinet to the
propositions of the other Powers. It is said that Russia
does not absolutely reject them, and even recognises them
as capable of being made the bases of new negotiations,
after certain modifications in reference to the common
protectorate of the Principalities, and the preservation, in
their integrity, of the privileges of the Greek Christians.
BRITISH HEROISM.—A Varna letter of the 9th con-
tains the following :—Mr. Burke's body was found after
the action in which he lost his life with no less than 33
wounds upon it. The Russians had taken his sword-belt,
but his sword was found hidden in some long grass close
to the corpse. The ring finger of both hands was cut off.
He was seen by the sapper who went with him fighting
desperately to the last, though surrounded by a horde of
Russians. When he first leapt on shore from the boat,
six soldiers charged him. Two he shot with his revolver,
one he cut down with his sword—the rest turned and fled.
While he was encouraging the Turks, who were in the
stream, to row quietly to the land, and forming them in
line as they landed, conspicuous as he was in full uniform
and by his white cap cover, a number of riflemen advanced
from behind a ditch, and took deliberate aim at him. Poor
Burke charged them with headlong gallantry. As he got
near he was struck by a ball, which broke his jaw-bone,
but he rushed on, shot three men dead at close quarters
with his revolver, and cleft two men through helmet and
all into the brain with his sword: He was then sur-
rounded, and while engaged in cutting his way with heroic
courage through the ranks of the enemy, a sabre cut from
behind, given by a dragoon as he went by, nearly severed

his head from his body; and he fell dead, covered with
bayonet wounds, sabre gashes, and marked with lance
thrusts and bullet holes. The sapper who was with him
stood by Mr. Burke till the last, but could not save him.
He is now only recovering from his wound and the effect
of his exertions."

WITH little to disturb the quietude which usually
prevails at this season of the year, with no accounts
of reverses from the seat of war except the apocry-
phal report from Russia which no one believes,
and with every prospect of realising the hopes of
an abundant harvest, the money market during
the week has been as favourable as could be
expected, and this has been evident in the gradual
improvement of the public Funds. It is, indeed, a
striking fact, significant of the vast resources of
England, that at a time when we are carrying on
a war requiring vast armaments in two distant
seas, the public securities bear a higher value than
they did for some time before war was declared.
Money also is easier for commercial purposes, and
though the Bank directors have made no change
in the rate- of discount, it has been reduced in
practice at least half per cent. during the week.
There have been reports of some failures in the
Corn trade, owing, no doubt, to improvident spe-
culations ; but the amounts are not large, and will
hardly affect more than the immediate creditors.
The Bank returns on Friday again show an in-
crease in the stock of bullion ; and the other items,
particularly the public and other deposits, also show
an increase, so that, so far as these returns may be
made up, it was

FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET

English Funds buoyant to-day. Consols advanced if per
cent. The continued fineness of the weather and the impor-
tant decline in Corn were the main causes of improvement.
Railway Shares opened quietly, and improved at mid-day
considerably with Funds, but at the close the highest prices
were not quite maintained. In Land and Banking descrip-
tions, transactions were not extensive. Turkish Scrip con-
tinues to decline—closing price, 54 pin. Foreign Stocks are
