The late of mortality that now rules is not high , as compared with that of previous seasons , although it has lately shown th . at tendency to increase which is to be expected at a period of the year usually th « most fatal to human life . —Last week , the births of 879 boys and 883 girls , in all 1762 children , were registered in London .

      CORN MARKET . Mark-lane , Friday , February 6 , 1857 . Since our last report , we have received no flour , and only 620 quarters of Wheat have arrived from abroad . The exports this week from the port of London will , therefore , considerably exceed the imports ; nevertheless the "trade is most inanimate , though holders will not submit to any decline . Maize continues in demand for France and Spain , but there is nothing offering . With moderate supplies of Barley and Oats , the trade is slow , and prices are barely maintained .
