otice. Business has been moderate in them all, and the slackness of the one week has been counterbalanced by the briskness of the other. Sales and purchases were chiefly for local consumption, and hardly any were made on speculation or for exportation. The Corn Market has been generally well supplied, and business has, upon the whole, been very fair. Prices have been moderate, and the duties of foreign Corn rather steady throughout the month. The last average duty on wheat was 24s. 8d. The wheat supplies have amounted to about 12,000 quarters of English, and 16,000 quarters of foreign wheat, and about 25,000 sacks of flour, chiefly English. In the Liverpool Corn Market the imports have been rather limited, excepting in oats. The transactions have been of a moderate extent, but the holders have generally evinced great confidence in every article of trade. Most of the surrounding markets were scantily supplied, and therefore were high; that circumstance induced a hope in the Liverpool holders that business will shortly become active. The defective quality of the Irish new wheat caused the sale of that grain to be more than usually dependent on the actually consumptive demand of the millers, a very small proportion having been fit for storing. Sack and barrel flour has been sold readily, and atfull prices. A cargo of Odessa wheat in bond was disposed of at 78. 2d. per 70lbs. a price not quite proportioned to the last quotations of that article from Odessa, at which place it had experienced a considerable rise in consequence of foreign demand. Foreign arrivals have not been important. They have chiefly consisted in flour from the United States. The Hop Market has been ull, owing to a want of spirit and energy shown in trade through the country. The duty is expected out in a few days, and it is generally considered that it will be about 95,0007. Tallow continues to command high prices in consequence of the great deficiency in the season's whale-fishery, by the loss of a great number of vessels, and the rise in the price of oil. The prices are 41s. 9d. on the spot, and 41s. for Ja nuary, being 5s. more than last year. The stock at present is 26,329, and the delivery 2023. In despite of the general feeling of public indig. nation against the truck-system, the practice of paying wages in provisions, goods, and otherwise, has of late gradually and rapidly extended itself in every direction around the grand vortex of manufacture, viz. Manchester. Several tradesinen in the neighbourhood of Oldham, both in the cotton and coal concerns, are in the habit of slaughtering a beast or two weekly, and compelling their work. people to take a quantity. for the use of their families or friends, at such prices as they think proper to fix on, and which is generally a penny or two higher than the regular trade or market price. This practice, if suffered to continue, must prove injurious in every view. The Legislature ought speedily to interfere and arrest its progress. It may not be generally known among the manufacturing world, that, under the regulations of a late Act of Parliament, patterns may be conveyed through the post at a single rate, provided they are sent in an envelope, open at both sides, with no other writing or thing whatsoever than the address, the name of the sender, and the prices of the articles annexed. If the envelope be closed, or the patterns be accompanied by a letter or order, the whole is liable to a double rate; and, in either case, the weight must not exceed one ounce, or the packet is chargeable with the full rates as an ordinary letter. The Stock Exchange has experienced greater convulsions during the month which has expired than at any period since the close of the war. The circumstances attending the last settlement of accounts had rendered the market extremely feverish, and events have since occurred not at all calculated to restore that stability and general confidence which had so long prevailed there. In spite of the utmost efforts of the Jews (who had deeply speculated for the rise, and were extensively involved in the last account,) to maintain prices, the Bear party took a command of the market, which circumstances at one time enabled them to govern as they pleased. The price of Consols was pretty well sustained at about 84, until the tenour of the King's Speech at the opening of Parliament was known on the Stock Exchange. That speech produced an immediate depression, and the price gradually declined to about 80, until the 8th of the month, when the advice given to the King, not to dine in the City on the following day, was officially intimated to the public. The shock produced by that intimation on the Stock Exchange, as well as on the general mercantile credit of the country, is indescribable. No description of Government se. curities remained unaffected by it. Consols for the account declined to 77}; and they would have gone down considerably lower, had not a great number of persons chosen to avail themselves of the opportunity of low prices in the market to make investments. These became so considerable as not only to bring on a reaction, but also to produce, after every alarm had subsided, a great scarcity of money stock. The price of Consols for money has, therefore, been one eighth per cent, bigher than for the account during a great part of the month-a circumstance which has not occurred in the Stock Exchange for several years. A great number of sinister expectations had been entertained in regard to the settlement of the accounts fixed for the 25th of November; but, although very large amounts had been transferred to it from the previous settlement, and losses have been very great among speculators, the accounts were much more easily settled than had been anticipated, and no defaulters of any consequence were announced. In consequence of the continued scarcity of money stock, the price of it was on that day the same as for January, and both closed at 83 three-eighths. The transactions in the Foreign Stock Exchange have been almost entirely confined to Cortes' Bonds, being the only security in that market sufficiently liable to fluctuations to make it worth the attention of speculators. But the Constitutional cause of the Spaniard having lost every chance of success, for the present season at least, the price is gone down to 15, where it will probably long continue, unless it falls still lower. No investments have been made in this branch of the money market. The following list of the closing prices of the 25th, on the Stock Exchange, exhibits a general fall from the list appended to our preceding report: 536 ENGLISH FUNDS. Three per Cent.
