The Market. There were considerable OPP
erations in Flour yesterday after the receipt of
the Caledonia's news at SIS 6.
The Editors of the Journal of Commerce have
the following letter dated.
LONDON, July 14th
"The Corn market has advanced very much
during the past week; and American Flour is
! 4 . h.,nI md haar
ofa small lot having obtained SIS. 1t Is now
pretty certain that We shall have the duty at the
nominal rate Of Is per quarter on wheat, and I'd
per br. on Flour. which will make the latter
worth 4Os or ASS as compared with the English
sack of $50 lbs. at 60 65s. The weather has
been fine for the past two DAYS, but the long
prevalence of cold aud wet has injured the wheat
and we fear it will scarcely be an average crop
under the most favorable weather.
France is likely to want considerable foreign
supplies, and has already been purchasing in the
Nothern markets"
Extract from the Crcular Of .andrew Taylor j.
Co. dated
"LIvERPooL, 18th July, 1880.
There have been large operations in bonded
Wheat during the week, at an advance of fully
IS. per quarter, and the market still looking up;
the sales of Flour are over $4,000 brls. at 29s

INTERMENT AT SEA.-One of the most
solemn and gloomy sounds that arrest the
ear of man of wars man, is the voice
of the boatswain and his mates calling
'all hands to bury the dead 1t has re-
ally sense appalling sound. Immedi-
ately all the crew are seen Fastening on
deck, ,and assembling in the lee gangway.
The body of the deceased mariner
may be there seen, covered with the ma
tional jack, extended on a plank, the
ends of which rest on two short boxes, on
a level with the gangway. Should there
be chaplain, (and ifnot, some proper
person is appointed to read the burial
scrvice) upon his approach, the jack is
removed, and all heads uncovered. The
body is then seen, merely sewed close up
in a hammock; the poor fellows chief
possession when living, his only comfort
when turned in after stormy and tenn
pcstuous watch, and his winding sheet
when dead. In the foot Of it are enclos-
cd two 32lb. shot.
Upon coming to that part ofthe service
I'VE therefore commit his body to the
deep the plank is tilted, and the sue
ceeding splash soon warns us, that the
relic of mortality has entered its future ell
emcnt, never more to be disturbed by hui
man means. 1t always had remarka-
