      London Cons Exchange, Monday, Jaxl-.Uiv ...

      London Cons Exchange , Monday , Jaxl-. uiv . 5 . — Tlio arrivals of wheat of home proiiuee up to our market during the whole of the past week , _drisiagchie _& y from the late boisterous weather , were on an uiiu .-. nal ] y limited scale , and of very iiiiildiiij _*** _ijiiality _* _. Of Eng ' lish barley , malt , oats , beans , ami pens , includin » flour , the receipts were again small . From Ireland very few oats came to hand , but from abroad the imports of wheat , barley , oats , and flour were seasonably extensive . Fresh up this day from our own coasts , as well as by l . uid carriage and sample , very little wheat came to hand , hence the stands were extremely bare of samples of that article . The attendance of buyers being tolerably numerous , the factors were very firm , and at the opening of the trade , succeeded iu obtaining a trifle move for ssleeted qualities of white . That slight advance was not , however , supported , and the market closed somewhat heavily for most descriptions , at about ki > t

      Monday ' s quotations ; still a fair clearance was effected . The show of free , foreign wheat was small , yet the amount of business actually transacted iu it was trilling , at unaltered currenccs . In corn uuder lock next to nothing was doing , yet the importers wcrcfirm , and would not sell except at extreme prices . There was a-full average quantity of English barley ou the stands ; but by lav tke largest portion of it was out of condition . The _bi-st malting qualities commanded a very steady trade , and must be _considered the turn dearer . In all other kinds -very little was doing , at late rates . Superfine malt moved oft' freely ; other kinds slowly , at late rates . The supply of that article on offer was comparatively small . The supply of oats from all quarters , but more particularly from Ireland , being small , the trade was steady at au advance in the quotations of Cd . perqr . Beans and peas seem in full average supply and heavy inquiry , at previous currencies . Flour was a slow inquiry , but not cheaper .

      Liveiipool Cor . v Maiikkt , A 1 o . vd . it , Jan * . 5 . — the chief arrivals during the past week are from abroad , whence wc have " received several _larce carg oes ot Hour and Indian coin from the United States , and two or three of beans from Egypt . The supply , ot grain , meal , and flour from Ireland has materially taller _, off , and , taken collectively , is the smallest since harvest . The demand fop wheat since last luesday has been mostly confined to onr own locality , and as the stocks in the hands ot the millers and dealers arc light , they have been purchasers to a moderate extent of both wheat Vnd at full

      flour , y late rates . Some quantity of those _arucies continues to be sent into the Manchester market from the neighbourhood of Birmin"hnm where prices keep under ours . Thoueh the sale of oats has been limited , the scanty _supph / of this article and oatmeal has enabled holders to obtain rather _beitcr prices for both . Barley , beans , and peas have moved merely in retail quantities , at the currency of ast j lies-lay . The transactions under bond have hew * several sales of United States sweet flour , at -. si . to 28 * . fid ., and one parcel at 29 < . per barrel , anu two or three purchases of Indian corn , for Irish _, account , at 33 s , to 31 s . per 1801 bs . -

Beans in good demand and but few offering . Oats and shelling each rather dearer . _Ala-t as before .

      Manchester Cons Maukkt , Saturday , Jan . 3 . — Notwithstanding the improvement wliich has taken place in the value of wheat in London and other influential markets , the demand for flour ( luring the week lias been of an inactive character , the dealers and _bakers purchasing merely for the supp _. _' y of their iwnvidiate wants , whieh they were enabled to do without alteration in prices . " Both oats and oatmeal have likewise cotnniaiulcd only a moderate degree of alteration , but the previous currency was maintained . At our market this morning the transactions in wheat were on a very limited scale , and no advance in prices could be realised . Flour also met a slow sale , at the _curvancy of this . day se ' nnight . There was rather an improved inquiry " for oats and oatmeal , and the former article must be noted the turn llearcr .

      Hull Corn Markkt , Tuesday . —The return of Sir itebert Feel to _oltiee has restored confidence to onr market during the past week . The trade , however , has been by no means bri _> k ; indeed we have had Let iittio business passing . What little quantity of free foreign and old _English wheat , however , has been sold was at full prices . Millers' stocks are very low , unit holders arc firm ; wc may , therefore , reasonably look for rather more doing after the turnof the year . At to-day ' s market the supply of both old and new wiieat is good , but owing to the farmers asking * very high prices , the business passing is but small , at Is . per quarter advance on the prices of last wetk . In _sprint corn tho _business doing is not great _,, and tiie supply only moderate . In linseed and rapeseed but little doing , and the arrivals are not large _. Linseed cakes continue in good demand . In rape cakes and bones little passing , and for the latter lower prices are taken . Guano dull .

      _Birmingham [ Corn Exchange , Wednesday . — During the present week there has not been much life in tke wheat trade , though an advance of Is , to 2 s . pel-quavter was obtained .

A _i-tbrxoox . —To-day , at twelve o ' clock at noon , - _vinau of the name of Woodward , a juiner , _rc-SKung at _Wellow , in the north of this county , was brought in the custody of the police to the county gaol , ehurged with having attempted to murder % t «! iale ofthe name of Him ! , a widow , wj . h whom lie had been cohabiting . Wellow is a village about ten aules _fiviii Worksop , aud tiic same distance from the t _nvns 01 ' Newark and Southwell ; and it appears that tor a length of time past the prisoner _i _* as been separate from \\\\ wife , aud lias resided with his ur . « _turum-ite victim . ' The horrible deed was evidently a premeditated act , from the circumstance of his taking with him , on going to bed on Mondav night

      last , a knife , which he * placed under his pillow . At hail-past six o ' clock in the morning tiic man and woman quarrelled , ivhim the wretch took the knife and indicted upon the poor woman a dreadful wound in her throat , whieh extended several inches from right to left .
