BEALTJtl OF LONDON . ( From theRegistrar-General ! s Return . " ) A thousand ana fifteen deaths were registered in London in the week that ended last Saturday , a number -which ' slightly exceeds that of the previous week . Iri the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1844-53 the average number was 936 , which , if raised in proportion to increase of population , becomes 1030 . Hence it appears that the mortality of last week was belovr the calculated result , but differs from it only to a small ainount .

CORN MARKET .
Mark Lane , Friday Evening , July sil . Locai , TnADB . —Tho market continues in tho same quiet state na during tho last fortnight . Tho littlo disposition to purchase Wheat either by millers or dealers , makes holders unwilling- to talk about lower prices , and quotations must thoroloro bo considered nominally tho sumo as ou Monday . Barley and Oats remain precisely as at tho beginning of tho week . Since thia < Uy week the trade throughout tho country hag remained in tho quiet state which thq fine weather gave reason to expect . The general decline In tho value of Wheat has boon »» . to 4 s ., of Barley is . to 2 s ,, and of Oats is . por quarter . Tho reports of tho crops from oil parts of England as woll as from Scotland ana Ireland , vary but littlo . Tho Wheat looka well , but there is unquestionably a considerable quantity of blight of various kinds , which may prove sulllciont to prevent , tho orop giving a very largo yield . There is as usual nomo appearance of blight also among tho Potatoes , both In England and Ireland -, but as roBWrtH the latter country wo do not think thoro is reason for much approhennion on that account , us Potatoes are much Iohh of iiHtujilo than Pormorly . The reports froin Kranco are of a niinilar character . Tho harvest has Already begun in tlio midland dlstricto , and though wot \ v « ather may impair tho condition . It will sonruuly aifuel tho quantity of grain . Prices hnvo rather riaon In tho 1 ' wia disitriots owlnft to tho lighlncHM of HtockB , but it is not believed that this civn continue beyond a fow wooUh . Tho Fronch Govornmonfc baa made some purohaaoa of "Wheat , which has boon partly furntahod from tho London mnrkcl . Tho crops hi the north of Germany arc progresnins favourably . In tho absence of demand from this Hide , buHlnesn in the Baltio ports hns boon Hat during tlio lout wook . In Denmark iu-Icob have romaiued much as berore ( tho crops in that country look woll . In Amorlcn , tho state of tho Money Market ( owing to most extensive forgeries and tho accounts from tnlu aide ) ,
has caused dull markets both for WiKat and ~ ' Flourl The crops generally are , yell' spoken of , but iu Ohio some extensivedajnfcge has been done by wevil—to what extent is not stated , but the loss is reported to be undoubtedly serious . Notwithstanding the dull state of the trade , there have been a great number of sales at 63 s . for 61 lb . English for present delivery , whereas ' a week ago but feV persons had made up their minds to accept such prices . There has been some talk of farmers selling their new crops at 60 s . per quarter , and it may still be gathered from the general tone of remarks that tpis is about the price at which the new season is expected to open . It may be interesting to know that the quantities of a& /

MONEY MAEKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Priday Eveuing , July 21 , 1 S 54 . The settling on the July Consols account has passed off much more quietly than had been anticpated . Only two small failures , of an insignificant extent , have occurred ; and it must be now fairly presumed that the great Bear party , which held out so long and go obstinately , has at last given in . There has b ^ en a slight rise Within the last two days , owing to liner weather' and an easier state of the Money Market ; but so surely as Consols are forced up to beyond their value , than a new Bear party will arise , gathering as it grows , and send them down 8 or 10 per cent , again . The prolongation of this most unsatisfactory warthe miserable imbecility a id indecision of the Coalition Ministry—and the criminal apathy of the worst House of Commons that we have had since Walpole— -must make reflective men anxious and fearful .
] t would seem tbat even with the ~ active co-operation of the two Germanic powers the war must last over the winter , unless the cholera seizes the Czar , of which we presume there is a chance ; and a ' winter ' s delay will sicken the noncombatants , while it demoralises the actual combatants . Meantime . Nicholas will be gaining ground , and by the help of his active-agents—the Manchester school—in this country , may be in a better position at the opening of the next spring than at the close of the autumn . Whether this all-enduring country will quietly submit to a present disgrace and future danger , will be then the question ; judging from their present inertness , they will acquiesce and submit . The Funds meantime must undergo violent changes ;
and we still maintain that , with Consols at 94 , it is more prudent to be a Bear than a Bull . Shares have been weaker during the week throughout alt the markets- Prench shares still keep up . Since this morning thero has been a fall in the Piinds , despite of the fineness of the day ; perhaps some holders of Three per Cents . may not implicitly believe the . Coalition assurances that only 3 millions will be needed . JTearer 10 millionsi and a loan before Parliament breaks up , will let down the Funds 5 per cent;—and is it not possible f Crystal Palace shares have fluctuated ; there are buyers now at par . Some pood men believe that they will eventually-declare a good dividend . Mining shares are entirely neglected ; the traDfio in them has actually ceased , except in isolated instances . At 1 o ' clock the markets closed . Consols for account , 92 i 923 .
