CORN MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday Evening , March 2 , 1855 . The disappearance of the frost , and the consequent reopening of water communication with the interior . has put an end to the complete stagnation which existed wnUe the frost lasted ; still the amount of business done m Wheat during the week has been very limited . The supply of Norfolk Flour has continued liberal , and on Monday there was a free sale at 50 s . per sack ; it is now held for is . to 2 s . more The value of Wheat in the Baltic and . Danish ports remains unaltered . In the present uncertain state of affairs there is little or no disposition for Spring business . In New York Wheat and Flour are held firmly , but trade is confined to the home demand . The French markets remain quiet , with very little alteration in prices . Barley has slightly recovered from the extreme depression of the last few weeks . The low price compared with Cake , causes it to be used more freely for feeding purposes , and there has been some little speculative business doinp ; for future delivery . The price is even now below Danish , which is held at 27 s . to . 28 s ., f . o b . in the Spring . With very small supplies , the chief part of which is by rail from the Eastern Counties , prices of oats have rather drooped during the week , buyers having held off as much as possible , in expectation of an arrival from Ireland .

DEURY-LANE . The production of the Etoile du . Nord , at Dbury-Lane , under the Smith dynasty , is a monument of audacity . But we are bound to say it is by no means so discreditable an achievement as . might have been feared by those who have seen the opera in Paris . Indeed , to those who see and hear the Etoile du JVord for the first time there is much even in the Drury-lane version to make a very passable representation ; ' so victoriously charming is the music and so triumphantly ingenious the libretto . Mr . Tux . i . y ' s orchestra is really to be commended for its steadiness and good intentions . Mr . Henry Dkayton cannot make much of the music , but his acting in the last two acts of the opera is intelligent and not unpleasing . Miss Jenny Bauer , who , for all her German name , speaks English with a thoroughly English accent , is agreeable and vivacious , although she cannot sing in tune . Mrs . Henry Drayton sings nicely , although the music is too much'for her . The other tenors are nasal , but painstaking . The choruses work with a certain air of correctness and precision . The scenery is tolerably effective . On the whole , we think , the general impression is just enough to excite interest in the production of the opera at Covent Garden this season , when it will undoubtedly be heard for the first time , in spite of the enterprise of Mr . E . Smith " . Let us take this occasion to remark upon the disreputable state of the approaches to the boxes , and of the boxes themselves in this flourishing national establishment . Mr . Sbiith , we know , pays his rent like a . man , but to a stranger , unaware of that important and interesting fact , the audience part of the theatre is the very impersonation of insolvency .

THE SPANISH DANCERS . Mr Bucks-tone has discovered the true diggings in Andalusia . The Senora PereaXna hafl madeamost brilliapt rentree at the Haymabkbt , attended bv a " new company bearing the most unequivocally Iberian names , and , we may Sw t \ Z Stunexc e ^ tionably Spanish eyelashes and ancles . To all who are Sck o " thSS a ^ d piro ^ ttL of the Vdinary ballet , with itsjncklv smiles and stereotyped contortions , these Spanish dancers , -so essentially realist , so ekSuent of Southern life and passion , are delightfully refreshing . La Perea Nena and her companions communicate enjoyment because they appear to teel enjoyment in those capricious , whirling mazes , and those twinkling arabesques . The " feeling is infectious , and you are carried away by the intense abandonment and the savage coquetry of these children of the Sun . The present troupe is a very decided improvement on the former company of the Perea Nena . The women are younger and more attractive . The men are more vigorous and agile , and , technically speaking , they execute the figures with more precision and aplomb . We are glad to find that the Spanish dancers have thoroughly taken hold of the English public , and Mr . Buckstone has the happiness of having first made them popular . A visit to the Haymarket is now as pleasant a way of passing an hour or two of an evening as can be imagined .

MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Friday Evening , March 2 , 1855 . Business has boon so dull during the whole of the week that it required something to give a pleasing variety for the moment . This afternoon a report , or rumour , in the Second Edition of the Times , via Berlin , to say that the Czar was so seriously ill that his life was despaired of , has positively raised the funds i per cent . This may turn out . probably will an enormous piece of blague ; but it docs its turn aa a kind of counterpoise to tho melancholy anticipations consequent on the projected expedition of Louis Napoleon to the Crimea . To think that not moroly property , capital , all that makes life valuable to your money-hunters , but that hundreds of bravo men ' s lives hang upon the life of cither or both of these saving their Emperorships ' , very worthless vagabonds . Consols havp absolutely not moved during the week until to-day . With now Chancellors , poradventure , will come now measures-a loan , porhaps—all or which wilf mako business brisker . Hence one of tho groat objections to Mr . Gladstone in tho City was his horror of all Jjoans—and thereby cutting off tho supplies from the traders and dealers in money—considered : hypothotically and not really . Railway linos show bad returns of traffics everywhere in England . Foreign railways maintain their price ; an amalgamation between Paris , Strasburg , and Great Luxembourg , has boon discussed ; this would improve tho tablo miKhtily . ^ Minos nothing doing . Wallers navo boon bottor sinco their mooting . Chartered Banks aro good . Crystal Palace shares still very Hat . Consols loavo off at 4 > o clock—for account March 8 th , 014 , Bl | .
