LONDON MARKETS. MARK-LANE, CORN-EXCHANGE, Dec. 31.The supplies of wheat fresh up to this morning's market were moderate. The principal portion was from Kent; less than usual from Essex; and trifling from Suffolk. The quality was generally not fine, and the condition affected by the weather. We had a thin attendance of buyers, and the transactions extremely limited. Wheat moved heavily off hand at the prices nominally of last week, though, if extensive purchases had been made, they might have been effected on lower terms. We heard of no business transpiring in bonded wheat. Kubanka was still held at 30s. to 32s. The accounts from the leading country markets received this morning, with the exception of Newcastle, state the wheat trade as firm at the former currencies, particularly the best qualities. The arrivals of barley have been rather considerable. Best malting qualities realised the quotations of last week; but middling and inferior descriptions were 1s. per qr. cheaper, with a dull sale. The supply of Scotch oats was good, but of English and Irish limited; the latter qualities were very dull sale, and Friday's rates barely maintained; but Scotch experienced rather a fair demand at former quotations. Old beans maintained their prices, but new were 1s. per qr. lower. Peas steady, with a moderate demand. SMITHFIELD.-Dec. 31. In this day's market, which was throughout but indifferently supplied, both as to numbers and quality, prime beef, prime mutton, and prime veal, met with a brisk sale, at an advance of from 4d. to 6d. Beef, mutton, and veal, of middling and inferior quality, 2d. to 4d. per stone. Pork was in steady demand, at Friday's prices. The beasts, a considerable number of the smaller kinds of which appeared to be the refuse of the whole year, consisted of about equal numbers of short-horns, and Devonshire (chiefly) steers and oxen, Welsh runts, and Irish beasts, for the most part from our northern and western districts, with perhaps 200 Town's end cows; a few Herefords, Sussex beasts, Scots, Norfolk home-breds, Staffords, &c., from various quarters. Full four-fifths of the sheep were new Leicesters of the South Down and different white-faced crosses, in the proportion of about two of the former to three of the latter; about a tenth South Downs; and the remainder about equal numbers of Kents, Kentish halfbreds, and old Leicesters, with a few horned and polled Norfolks, horned and polled Scotch and Welsh sheep, horned Dorsets, &c. Beasts, 2,064; sheep, 14,840; calves, 156; pigs, 80. MARK-LANE.-Friday, Jan. 4. The arrivals this week good. The market. dull, with rather lower prices than on Monday. THE FUNDS. 3 per Cent. Cons.

Sir, For ten years past I have suffered very severely from Gout, each year increasing in the frequency of the attack and intensity of suffering. My legs and hands became useless, rendering me incapable of attending to my affairs. In this situation I was recommended by a lady, last December, to try Blair's Pills, which I lost no time in doing, and happy am I to inform you that a few doses gave me essential relief, and less than two boxes completely freed me from this dreadful disease.
