      REGISTERED AS THE ACT DIRECTS . STEPHENS' IMPROVED PARALLEL RULER . —In the use of the common Desk Ruler every person knows that there is a constant motion of the fingers to accompany the revolution of the Ruler ; this motion , besides the inconvenience to the operator , occasions it to roll out of the parallel , and lines so ruled do not in any length of surface correspond . Another inconvenience in the common Ruler is , that , by its contact with the Pen , ink stains are left on the sides of the Rulers which , in revolving , soil the fingers and the paper ; both these inconveniences are removed by the above-named improvedRuler , which having the rollers underneath a flat upper surface , rolls over the paper without coming in contact with the fingers ; and by a peculiarity of formation at the ruling edge the Pen is kept from contact with the ruling parts on the paper , so . that soiling the fingers on the paper is completely prevented . Rulers of various lengths , from seven to eighteen . inches , at prices varying from 2 s . 6 d . to 5 s . ¦ Manufactured and Sold by the Proprietor , HENRY STEPHENS , 54 , Stamford-street , Blackfriars-road , London . Sold by all Booksellers and Stationers .

      CORN MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday Evening , Dec . 23 . mnxT Trade . —The supplies of English wheat during the «« ££ have been insignificant , but liberal of foreign wheat nrl of Irish and foreign oats . The trade in all articles is firm at Monday ' s rates . TTroATiNG Tbade . —Out of thirty-two arrivals reported « ii « week only about nine remain for sale . The general win in prices throughout the country ^ and the firm tone of ffin French and Belgian markets , have not been without influence on the value of floating cargoes . Since our last , iileshave been made at an advance of 2 s . per qr . It is an important feature in the trade , that after a temporary denression arising from immense supplies , the markets in the advance tnac

      south of Europe nave again oegun jo , so mere Is at present , no reason to expect that cargoes originally destined for Mediterranean ports will be sent forward to * his country , as was feared by some persons about three weeks ago . We have certainly more inquiries for wheat from Ireland as well as England this week . The stocks of this article in the former country are getting very low , and we expect before long to have such a demand from thence as shall mako up , in a great measure , for the want of a French demand , should this fall off as some persons seem rather disposed to anticipate . The shipments from Odessa continue in the same proportions as before to the Mediterranean and this country . . .
