LONDON.
April 28. The wheat market is improving, and prices ar°. quoted at from Gd to Is higher. The New South "Wales contingent have accepted service anywhere they may bo required ; they will probably be brigaded with the Guards. The English Government are greatly pleased with tho open offer.
Tho consecration ceremony of the Rev. William Webber, recently appointed Bishop of Brisbane, will be performed by tho Archbishop of Canterbury, assisted by the Bishops of London and Victoria. Persistent rumors are afloat that a second engagement between the Russians and Afglians lias taken place, and that the Russians were defeated with a loss of 1000.
The Daily News hopes that tho courageous patriotism of New South "Wales offering the services of their contingent to go to India will bo imitated. The cost of the contingent, should they be transferred to India, will bo borne by New South Wales.
