LIVERPOOL CORN.—TUESDAY. Wheat in very moderate demand at ONE PENNY to, TWO- PENCE PER CENTAL DECLINE since Friday last. Flour dull, and nominally unchanged. Beans Sd. per qr. cheaper; Saidi, 34s. to Ms. 3d. Oats and Oatmeal neglected. Indian Corn in tolerably fair request at 3d. redaction; ftoand Yellow, 26s. 6d. to 26s. 9d. LONDON, MONDAY.—Last week's supplies were generally moderate. Exports: 205 qrs. Wheat, 60 qrs. Oats, 860 cwts. Flour. English Wheat 6,726 qts., foreign 12,408 qrs. There was a better show of English samples this morning, both as respects quality and condition. Yet business was very dull at ONE SHILLING DECLINE. The foreign trade appeared also affected by the change of weather unfavoorably, and was quite Is. perqr. cheap- er to sell as regards all qualities. Country Flour 20,682 sacks, foreign 2,592 sacks 6,365 barrels. Business was certainly Is. per sack lower to sell, as far as country sorts were concerned. Foreign were also in very small demand, both sacks and barrels, and in buyers' favour. Town sorts were unaltered. Maize 16,506 qrs. This trade with good arrivals was dull and quite 6d. lower. British Barley 2,831 qrs., foreign 1,425 qrs. Malting sorts, unless choice, were very dull and rather lower, grinding were 6d. cheaper. In Malt there was again extreme heaviness. English Oats 424 qrs., 29,054 qrs. foreign. Business was very quiet and generally 6d. per qr. lower for all qualities. Native Beans 942 qrs., foreign 5 qrs. Trade was very dull, especially for new Eng- lish. English Pf-as 619 qrs., foreign none. Peas were unaltered; but sales difficult. CURRENT PRICES OF BRITISH GRAIN AND FLOUR IN MARK LANE.

CARLISLE, SATURDAY.—There was an average supply of all kinds of grain. Wheat met a slow sale at a reduction of fully 6d. per bushel. Oats met a good demand at last week's rates. In barley no change. DONCASTER, SATURDAY.—The market was fairly supplied with wheat, which met a slow sale at the quotations of last week. Barley dull of sale, and Is. per qr. lower. Oats, beans, and peas in retail demand at last week's current rates. No change in other Articles. WORCESTER, SATURDAY.—At this day's market there was a full supply of wheat, and the trifling advance of last week was lost. Barley unaltered in value, but ruled dull. Oats again 6d. per qr. lower. Beans held for last week's rates, there being more inquiry for seed; and same applies to peas. LEICESTER, SATURDAY.—Wheat was in short supply, and the demand ruled active, at prices about the same as last week. Meagre show of barley, the trade for which was quiet. Oats and beans made high quotations, and difficult to dispose of. BRIDGNORTH, SATURDAY.—At the close of the market the following were the quotations:—White wheat, 6s. 8d. to 6s. lOd. per bushel of 721b; red wheat, from 6s. Od. to 6s. 6d. per bushel of 721b. Malting barley, 5s. 4d. to 5s. 6d. per 38qts.; grind. ing barley, 14s. 6d. to 15s. per lOsc. Beans, 15s. Od. to 16s. Od. per bag of 10sc. Peas, none offered. Oats, 12s. Od. to 15s. Od per bag of 8sc.

SHREWSBURY, SATURDAY.—The following were the prices:— White wheat, 6s. 10d. to 7s. 3d. per 751b; red, 6s. 4d. to 6s. lOd.; oats, per sack of Use. 101b, 18s. Od. to 19s. 6d.; beans, per 12sc., 19s. Od. to 19s. 6d.; peas, per Use. 101b, 17s. Od. to 18s. Od.; bar- ley, malting, per 38 quarts, 43. lOd. to 5s. 4d.; grinding, per 13sc. 101b, 18s. to 19s.; malt, per imp. bushel, 8s. to 8s. 6d. A rather thin attendance, and business dull. WELSHPOOL, MONDAY.—Quotations:—Wheat (per 801bs.) 6s. 6d. to 6s. lOd.; old ditto, Os. Od. to Os. Od. Barley (per 40 qts.). 4s. 9d. to 5s. 3d.; Oats, (per bag), 17s. to 203. Od.; Eggs, 14 for Is.; Butter, Is. 5d. to Is. 6d. per lb.; Fowls, 3s. 01. to 4s. 6d. per couple Ducks, 4s. Od. to 5s. 6d. Potatoes, 3s. Od. to 3s. 6d. per bushel. Turkeys, 7s. to 8s. 6d. each.

NOTTINGHAM, SATURDAY.—There was a fair supply of beef at market, which met a quiet trade, at prices ranging from 61d. to 7d. per lb. Small show of mutton, which made a little more money. Pork realised high quotations, while veal sold at higher terms. PETERBOROUGH, SATURDAY.—Prime qualities of beef were disposed of at rather more money, viz., 61d. to 7d. per lb. Very little doing in mutton, which made from 8d. to 8ld. Pork was a dull sale, and quite as dear. Very little doing in veal, for which higher prices were obtained. DONCASTER, SATURDAY.—There were at market 25 beasts, 15 sheep, 2 calves, 177 lambs, and 281 pigs. There was a poor show of beasts, and late prices were fully realised. Of sheep there was a fair show, but trade ruled slow at about the prices of last week. There was a good show of pigs, but the trade was slow. METROPOLITAN, MONDAY.—The total imports of foreign stock into London last week amounted to 7,195 head. The heaviness prevalent in the dead meat market, together with the receipts of an average supply of Btock, had a depressing effect on the cattle trade at Islington to-day, and there was a decided tendency to lower rates. From our own grazing districts a fair show of Beasts came to hand, in somewhat improved condition. There was a poor attendance of milkers, and no disposition was shown to purchase freely. The trade was dull at a decline of 2d. per 81b. The best Scots and crosses sold at 5s. 2d., but a large number of really good serviceable beasts were disposed of at 5s. per 81b. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received about 1,750 Scots and crosses; from other parts of England, about 530 of various breeds; from Scotland, 170 Scots and crosses; and from Ireland, about 820 oxen. A fair supply of Sheep was in the pens. Sales progressed slowly at about Monday's quotations. The best Downs and half-breds sold at 6 s. 6d. to 5s. 8d. per 81b. A few Lambs were offered, and mostly sold at about 8s. per 81b. For Calves the demand was inactive, at drooping prices. Pigs were dull and easier in value. LIVERPOOL, MONDAY.—The numbers on offer, which were about the same as last week, consisted of 2,451 beasts and 7,943 sheep. There were about 200 Spanish oxen in the market. The demand was slow on account of the high prices. Buyers very numerous from the country, and nearly all the stock was sold at the close. Quotations:—Best beasts, 7id. to 8d.; second best, 6 £ d. to 7 £ d.; inferior, 4d. to 6^d.; sheep, 7|d. to 9 £ d. per lb.

LONDON HOP, MONDAY.—Our market is quiet for every description of hops, and the transactions of the week have been exceedingly limited; but the short supply of new hops tends to keep prices firm. Yearlings are difficult of sale, even at lower quotations. Continental markets are reported quiet, and currency nominal. New York letters to the 18th inst. report the market as very dull, and holders firm. Mid and East Kent £ 7 0 £ 9 15 £ 13 6 Wealds 6 0. 7 5. 8 0 Sussex. 5 12 6 10 7 0 Bavarians 6 10 8 8 10 10 French 5 5 6 0 7 0 Americans 5 5. 6 0 610 Yearlings 2 0. 2 16 4 4 WORCESTER HOP, SATURDAY.—Messrs Piercy, Longbottom, and Faram's circular says—"Our market to-day was only a nominal one, as there are no new hops left with planters. Year- lings are unaltered." LONDON SEED, Mo"A.Y.-Very little English Cloverseed yet comes out, and fine qualities command very high prices. Foreign red Cloverseed was in steady request, at quite as much money. Fine white Cloverseed remains scarce, prices fdr such tending upwards. Choice English Trefoils were held higher, and fine foreign qualities were quite as dear. There was nothing passing in brown or white Mustardseeds to alter their values. Canaryseeds, both English and foreign, commanded quite as high rates. LONDON WOOL, MONDAY.—The wool trade has remained in a quiet state during the past week. Transactions in all descrip- tions have been neither numerous nor extensive, but prices have been supported for all qualities. Choice English lustres are scarce and comniand very full rates. The next series of London Colonial wool sales will commence on February 12th. CURRENT PRICES OF ENGLISH WOOL. S. d. to s. d: FLEECES—Southdown hoggets per lb. 1 1 1 11 Half-bred ditto 1 s £ 1 41 v Kent fleeces „ 13 1 3{ Southd'n ewes and wethers „ 10 1 l| Leicester ditto 1 2J 1 8i SORTS—Combing 1 0 1 5 Clothing 1 0 1 4A HALIFAX WOOL & WORSTED, SATURDAY.—To-day's market is something flatter than last week's. There is no demand for wool, and the quantity changing hands is very little. Only the best descriptions maintain their price; other sorts are a shade easier. The position of both the spinner and manufacturer is to them an unsatisfactory one. Generally the market is depressed; why, it is not very easy to see. LONDON POTATO, MONDAY.-The supplies of Potatoes are less extensive, and the trade is steady, at our quotations. English Shaws 70s. to 85s. per ton. English Regents 100s. to 110s. „ English Rocks 60s. to 75s. „ Scotch Regents 90s. to 105s. „ French 60s. to 65a.

LEADENHALL LEATHER, SATURDAY.—Moderate supplies of leather have been on offer. The trade has been steady, and prices have been well maintained. Raw market hides have been depressed.

THE WELSH IRON; TIN-PLATE, AND COAL TRADES. On the whole there has little change taken place in the position of the iron trade since last week, thongh home buyers still, in some instances, entertain sanguine hopes that they will be able to re-enforce the reduction of prices to what they were before the advance; still it may be perceived that a readier disposition to enter into engagements is making way amongst them, their stocks, as a rule, having been reduced to the lowest point, and purchases must be made to meet current requirements. The announcement of the authorisation of a new net-work of railways in Russia is one of considerable importance to this dis- trict, for in the past Welsh makers have not failed to secure a fair proportion of the engagements emanating from that empire; and it-may well, therefore, be concluded that large supplies will be obtained from these establishments for the construction of those new railways. In fact, the advices from most of the foreign markets indicate a considerable addition shortly to the inquiries for railway iron. The best brand cold blast pigs are selling freely at current prices. Increased purchases have of late been made in the tin-plate trade, and a decided revival ia looked forward to in the spring. Steam coal proprietors continue fairly placed for contracts, and prices are stiffening. House coal has, during the term of frosty weather, been in better request. In some parts of the district increased agitation is taking place for an advance in wages, and meetings have been held for the purpose of discussing the question. a ;) -l t ); ■■■yt Mil' i .¡ r

A Denbighshire fanner writing to the Field says:—" I send you the account of a rnn with the B.C.C.H., which took place on Monday, the 17th inst. This pack only commenced hunting the districts round the Vale of Clwyd last year, and have had great difficulties to contend with. The sport last Monday was, however, most encouraging. The meet was at Haforlands, the seat of H. R. Sandbach, Esq., and as usual at this fixture a good fox was soon found in a likely looking gorse near the Llan- rwst Lodge. With scent breast high, the hounds rattled their fox over tne grass enclosures towards Llanrwst; but turning to the left ran a ring round to Cemmes Dingle, which they crossed at once, making over the hill at a pace which the field found it next to impossible to live with. The hounds raced this gallant fox over the open, and without a check up to the Coed Coch Woods; here, inclining to the left, they skirted the Dawn Valley, and, sinking the hill, ran into the rookery at the back of the house at Coed Coch where though the varmint had been repeatedly viewed close before the hounds, a most unaccountable check took place, followed by cold hunting. The right line was fortunately recovered, and the pack sticking to their fox with great determination, were soon on better terms with him; and after another ring round the valley this tough customer, a fine old dog fox, was run into in the grounds at Coed Coch. Thus ended in the most satisfactory way, this capital run, which occu- pied two hours and three quarters. The pace was great, con- sidering the severe nature of the country, the distance up to the first check (eight miles) being covered in thirty-five minutes. e g Men, hounds, and horses had quite enough." THE ALLEGED CRUELTY OF FOX HUNTING. (From the Sportsman.) It is,now just half a score years since Lord Redesdale submitted a Bill to Parliament entitled An Act to Prevent the Entering and Running of Horses carrying very Light Weights for any Plate or Money." One of the restrictions sought to be imposed upon owners was that no racehorse should carry less than 7st. Jockeys who lay on flesh," just as racehorses do during the winter recess, would have bailed the passing of such a law as a boon, and if the preamble of the Act recommending a return to the old weights and distances had been carried, such men as Wells and Aldcroft would be enabled to ride in a greater part of the events recorded in the Racing Calendar without "wasting," or what, in turf parlance, is sometimes termed having the "muzzle on." The penal- ties sought to be imposed upon persons who saddled their horses with a heavier weight than the impost named was 2200, and, in addition to this, the forfeiture of the horse, with an allowance of double costs to the informer, would have been insisted upon. Subsequent to the rejection of this Bill, some members of the House of Commons sought to abolish the running for Royal Plates, and attempted to convince men of common sense that "since the abolition of 12st. imposts and four-mile heats, our breed of horses had sadly deteriorated." After a Ion debate on this sub- ject, and many speeches" from honourable members, the majority of whom displayed a lamentable amount of ignorance on equine subjects, and racing in particular, General Peel and Lord Palmerston came to the rescue, and I quote from the Parliamentary report in the daily papers of the time, as follows: General Peel entirely disagreed from his hon. friend, that the breed of horses had deteriorated in this country; on the contrary, he believed there had never before been a breed possessed of so great powers of endurance and speed. He might claim to speak with some authority on that point, having himself been a breeder of horses for forty years. Lord Palmerston said he entirely agreed in what had fallen from the right hon. and gallant gentlemen opposite (General Peel). He differed altogether from those who contended that the breed of horses had deteriorated; on the contrary, he thought the general breed of horses was better as to substance and power ot endurance. Any one who went into a racing stable and noticed the size, build, and substance of the horses could hardlv wish for anything better in those resDects. The fact was that greater pains were taken in the present day to force on a young horse. But there was one immediate test, and that had been mentioned by his hon. friend. If the breed had deteriorated, foreigners would not come to England to buy our horses; but the complaint was that every year more and more people came from abroad to purchase horses in England. That was proof that the English horse was a good horse. We have now a lot of similar agitators preaching against the cruelty" of foxhunting, and if ever a Bill to suppress the good old sport be introduced into Parliament there would be a fine chance for Mr Chaplin to "guillotine" its promoters as effectually as Lord Palmerston and Gen. Peel did Mr P. Wyndham and his motion about the deteriora- tion of our racehorses. Amongst other questions in re- ference to the alleged cruelty" of breaking up a fox and extinguishing his life and his carcase almost as quickly as a flash of lightning, some fox-hunting M. P. would pro- bably ask what was proposed to be done with the foxes now in the coverts of our hunting countries? Whether they must be kept to breed from, and pampered with the game that supplies the London and other markets, or must the edict go forth to every gamekeeper in the kingdom to shoot, trap, and poison every fox found in their preserves or elsewhere, and thus set in motion the most cruel and horrible means of death to which the fox is now subjected by a class of people who have not the skill to ride nor the courage to hunt. When a fox is found in covert he has a chance afforded him to save his life by flight, aided by his natural cunning, and if he be fairly run into his fate is far more quickly sealed than when caught by the leg in a trap, or when he crawls away to his covert to linger and die of poison. Yet many years of such atrocious cruelty to the fox would be the consequence of any legislation that would put an end to hunting, and to the manly and healthy pleasure afforded in a ride to hounds until they break up their quarry in the open, or he fairly beats them in a run to ground. THE INTERNATIONAL WRESTLING.—This match came off on Thursday and Friday week, at the Agricultural Hall, in the presence of a vast concourse of persons. The competitors were M. Bonnet le Bceuf, of Gascoigne, and M. Dubois, of Paris, who represented France, and Wright, of Westmorland, and Jameson, of Cumberland, who represented Old England. The conditions were to wrestle two falls each in the French and English styles; and should both win in their own they were to toss for the final style in which the contest should be decided. The French $ T athletes were much heavier men than their opponents, while the latter had the advantage on the side of youth. Wright and Le Boeuf were the first pair, who contested m the English style, and the Westmorland soon brought the Frenchman to the ground i l • 9 f v ? Si.1 c'l.f. r J >;• ;j,

Play was then changed to the French style, and Le Boeuf threw Wright, after a severe struggle, by a side swing from the hip; and Dubois was equally successful in his, contest with Jameson. On Friday each wrestler gained a fill'in.his peculiar style, which made them equal, ana in tossing the Frenchmen won. The final fall was contested by Dubois and Wright, and in 2min. 25sec. Dubois threw Wright by a clean cross-buttock over the left leg, and won the match.

BARMQUTH JUNCTION. SIR,-Permit me by means of your valuable paper to call the attention of the Cambrian Railway Company to the state of their waiting room at Barmouth J unction. It is now being used as a lamp room, and is altogether in an unfit state for passengers to stay in. As it is necessary to wait at the Junction for some time for some of the trains, the filthy state of the waiting room encourages passengers to go for intoxicating drinks to the refreshment room close by, and this, besides the discomfort it gives to themselves, induces the friends of temperance to urge the company to build a suitable station there without delay. < I am, yours truly, A TRAVELER.

THE FESTINIOG RAILWAY. SIR,—I respectfully beg to call attention to the manage- ment of the passenger traffic on the above railway, and to the great inconvenience and annoyance caused thereby to travelers. I had hoped that after their new Bill came into force in August last, the company would more care- fully study the requirements of the locality, and arrange their traffic accordingly, but the reverse seems to be the case. The time bill issued this month is ridiculous. It is known that the company have two stations at Festiniog, namely, Dinas, situated in a corner of the neighbourhood, and Diphwys, which is a central place, and the terminus of the Festiniog and Blaenau Railway Company's line to the town of Festiniog. Now is it not rea- sonable and business-like that the company should run their passenger trains invariably to and from Diphwys ? I do not see how anyone knowing the district can have two opinions on the matter; but instead of that, the company run the 6 a.m., the 10.50 a.m., and the 3.20 p.m. down trains to Dinas, and the 8.22 a.m. and 1.7 p.m. up trains leave that place. The bulk of passengers traveling by this line are from Festiniog, Conglywal, Bethania, and Four Crosses: why compel these to walk from Diphwys to Dinas, and vice versa, a distance of about a mile, for no reason whatever? And note further, the 3.20 p.m. down train after its arrival at Dinas at 4.41 p.m., is imme- diately taken round to Diphwys in readiness to start up at 5.27 p.m. Such a ridicftlous regulation, I confess, I have never before noticed. It this arrangement is intended to accommodate the inhabitants of Rhiw and Glanypwll, why not do it at Glanypwll Station, which is on the Diphwys Branch, and as the up trains are, for some reason or other, generally stopped for a few minutes at that place, I do not see what objection the company can have to book passengers from there, which would be a great deal more convenient for the inhabitants of that district. I sincerely hope and trust that, for the benefit of travelers and the inhabitants of Festiniog in general, the company will soon abolish the present arrangements and run their trains to Diphwys, which, as stated, is the centre of the population, and the connection with the Festiniog and Blaenau Railway. Trusting you will kindly allow space for the above in your valuable columns. I remain, G. P. M.

THE MARRIAGE OF MISS EDWARDS OF THE CALVINISTIC METHODIST COLLEGE, BALA. SIR, -I was greatly surprised to see a letter on the above question in your paper of the 29th inst., inasmuch as I thought all in connection with it had passed off per- fectly satisfactorily. But it seems that some unsatisfactory person felt it otherwise, and asks two questions with regard to it which I shall endeavour to answer. First—Why was there no provision made for the children of the National Schools on that day? Answer Beeause no one having anything to do with that school thought of providing for them. Secondly — Were they left out on account of their creed ? Answer—Certainly not; for I am positive that children of more than one creed partook of the tea, &c., on that day. Reference is made to what has taken place during the past ten years—the marriage and majority of Mr Price and Mr T. Anwyl, the majority of Mr O. Anwyl, and the marriage of a rector, &c. On all these occasions the dissenting bodies of this town subscribed handsomely, among whom was the Rev. Dr Edwards himself, giving his guinea and half guinea; and still the correspondent asks who are the liberals Is there any necessity of replying ? I should advise my friend, if he has been offended during the late contest, to fi something more plausible to grumble about. Two ladies, members of the Established Church, joined with us in providing tea for the children of the British School, and much we owe them for their kindness and liberality.—Yours, &c., Bala, Jan. 31st, 1870. E. EVANS. [Some words of our correspondent's letter were abso- lutely illegible, and had to be omitted.—ED.] SIR, -Your correspondent "Tory" complains bitterly in your last issue that the managers of the treat given to the children of the British School did not extend their bounty to the National School. He says, "May I ask on public grounds why was there no provision made for the National School on an occasion like this ? Were the children excluded on account of their creed?" With regard to the first question, the answer is very simple Had your correspondent taken as much time to ask a few of the friends of the National School to make tea for the children as he has taken to find fault with thosegwho did go to the friends of the British School, both schools would undoubtedly have had the same treat, as Dr Edwards has contributed liberally towards all the festivities alluded to by your correspondent. We feel sure that the objects of those festivities would have responded handsomely had he made the request. We are not a little surprised to find your high-bred correspondent writing in the strain he does, knowing that his fraternity claim a monopoly of good breedingandfinefeeling; and yet here we find "Tory" taking pains to point out to the managers of this tea party it is their duty to thrust themselves as patrons of the National School. This WE Liberals would call pre- sumptuous and what would a high-bred Tory" have said? His indignation would be unbounded; and yet here we have your Tory correspondent pointing this out as our duty. One word more on his first question. We were aware that Dr Edwards desired the wedding to Sass off as quietly as possible, and we were bound in eference to his feelings to make as little fuss as possible. Hence we took this course of only asking the friends of the British School to join in making tea for them. With regard to the second question, "Were the children excluded on account of their creed ?" we say emphatically no, because we don't believe that the children of either school have a creed of their own, and had we acted upon the suggestion of your correspondent we should have laid ourselves open to the severe animadversions of "Tory," as laying a bait to trap the children of the National School to the British School, and as we are no promoters of this doctrine, we trust that "Tory" will excuse us for not deDartinsr from the old rule. Your correspondent exuitingly quotes the many cele- brations that have taken place at Bala during the last ten years, and states that the objects of every one of these belonged to the church," and also asserts a very doubtful matter, that churchmen were the principal contributors. In the town of Bala it was not so. Nonconformists con- tributed more than churchmen hence they claimed it as a right and not as a favour that the good things which were given away should be given without distinction of creed. In conclusion, may I ask Mr Tory" and his friends what is the amount they have contributed to this celebra- tion, and if it is nil, what right have they to complain ?- I am, Sir, yours, &c., LIBERAL.

ROTTEN EGGS AND THE ADDRESS TO SIR WATKIN. SIR,-It seems that the conservatives are determined to make as much capital out of the rotten eggs affair at Bala, as they possibly can. This shows how very weak their cause is, and how short of material for accusation they are. The liberals, as a great party, do not want to justify the attack upon the baronet; but why make so much noise about a thing comparatively insignificant, and pass over the great injustice exercised on defenceless ten- ants on the other side ? Besides whatever discredit may attach to rotten eggs, it belongs quite as much to the con- servatives as to the liberals. In reality it was the tories who began that kind of disturbance by throwing their stinking missiles into the midst of the crowd from the windows of the hotel. One of the policemen on duty told me himself that it was he that put an end to it, by advis- ing the landlord to prevent such an attack on the crowd, for fear that his windows would be smashed. Everyone in the county knows very well how matters stand but to strangers the representations of the tories may appear very plausible. It was a happy idea to the originator of it to get all the tenants at Llanuwchllyn to signify their disapprobation of the treatment which Sir Watkin got at Bala by affixing their names t» a document got up ready for the purpose. But all who are acquainted with the circumstances will take the document with its signatures for what it is worth, for which would be the greater crime to withhold their vote from the tory candi- date or their signature from the tory document? We cannot, perhaps, decide upon the magnitude of such crimes, and therefore it would be vain to try to weigh the one against the other. It is notorious that the names of those two brave men who voted with the liberals are not among those of their fellow tenants. What can be the cause of this? Did they, and the one who remained neutral, refuse to have their names down ? Did they approve of the treatment inflicted on their landlord ? No, most certainly. They are among the best men, in every sense, which the baronet has on his extensive estate, and I may venture to affirm that they disapproved of the logic fof rotten eggs more entirely and emphatically than any of the others. How is it then that their names are not inserted with tne rest ? hr >• ".n 'A | .■ • •, X f>i ;• -ILI! -j ■ u? nrj.i » O liv-- !jce 1 Is it possible that the opprtunity of signing the paper wasr denied them, in order and for the purpose of increasing the odium attached to their independent and conscientiousr voting ? We will leave these questions to be answered for the public by the persons concerned; or else by the public. themselves. I beg to subscribe myself, CENSOR. [We have omitted portions of the foregoing letter, be- cause the statements made are hardly such as we can. insert under an anonymous signature. —ED.]

REVIEW OF THE BRITISH CORN TRADE. (From the Mark Lane Express.) We have had a continuance of wintry weather, -with,- some intensity of frost, and the like is reported in France-* and the northern parts of Europe. It has, however, been everywhere welcomed as giving a salutary check to the-- young corn, and swelling fruit buds, and enabling farmers, to get on with their carting, and other work. Holders of wheat hopeful that the hard weather would last long enough to bring an increased inquiry for foreign stocks, but Friday gave indications that it would not. We have, however, only got through one-third of the winter yet, I and we may have a few more sharp visits before the season.. has passed. There has been no decided improvement in the corn trade, and no quotable decline; but the week: closed very heavily in London, with a certain downward, tendency. Again we note a serious falling off in the Enga, lish deliveries, as compared with last year, say 18,378 qrs., which. must result either from shortened stocks or determination to wait; and as five months of the cereaL year have now passed, leaving still seven months to fill up, these seven, if furnished in the same scanty way, must, throw an increased demand upon the present surplus, granary stocks, and so help to dimini&h them. With an.. average price 10s. below the usual annual rate, well-to-do-C farmers, who are now the principal holders of English, may very reasonably expect some improvement; and aar they have no granary rent to pay, with an almost certainty that their samples will improve in condition and be more wanted by millers, they stand on a vantage ground not occupied by holders of foreign. In France, Belgium, and. some parts of Northern Germany, prices have somewhat, improved, but at Dantzic they have cheapened for inferior quality wheat, of which the bulk mainly consists. Should the frost only hold on for a month it would certainly give a tone to the markets, and with our own crop yet in its, infancy we are by no means sure either of an early of abundant harvest. What seems most against prices is the accumulation of stock in New York, the lake ports and., Montreal, as also at Odessa. The sales of English wheat noted last week were 58,4 qrs. at 43s. 6d., against 76,870 qrs. at 52s. 4d. in 1869. The imports into the kingdom for the week ending 20th. Jan. were 1,338,774 cwts. wheat, and 227,434 cwts. flour.

GEORGE PEABODY'S LovE. -The following episode is given in the life of George Peabody :—" A story has been- going the rounds of the newspapers, giving as a reason why Mr Peabody was never married, that he adopted a young girl, whom, after she grew up, he wished to make his wife, but, finding that she preferred a clark in his establishment to the chief of the house, he never told his love,' but calmly gave her up and saw her married to, another rival. Of the truth of that story I know nothing, but I can vouch for this that I am going to relate. More than thirty years ago, in the school of John Kingsbury, was one of the fairest daughters of Providence. Hep" school education finished, she went with friends to Europe, but, however, before having given her youthful affections to a young man whom she had met in a sister city. But before marrage adversity came upon him, and he found himself in no situation to marry. He was not willing that he should waste her youth and beauty in waiting throught long years, so he released her from her vows, and they parted, she going, as I said, to Europe. There she met George Peabody, then, comparatively speaking, a young man, but one who was already making his mark, and whose wealth was beginning to pour in. He saw her and was struck with her grace, her winning ways, and her loveliness, and he proposed.' Her heart still clung to her loved one across the wide Atlantic, but after some time, she yielded, perhaps to the wishes of her friends, perhaps to the promptings of worldly ambition; who can tell? She became the affianced wife of Mr Peabody. After a little interval she came back to this country, and soon after her arrival met her first love. At sight of him all her former affection came back, if, indeed, it had ever left her, and Mr Peabody, with his wealth and brilliant pro- spects, faded away; she clung with fond affection to her American lover, and she was willing to share a moderate. income with him. All was told to Mr Peabody, and he, with that manliness that characterised his every action,. gave her up, and in due time she was married. All this was talked over in a chosen circle of American friends, and also at a brilliant dinner party given by General Casa, in Versailles, it was thoroughly discussed. Whether, in his visit to this country, Mr Peabody every met his once affianced bride I cannot say. After several years of wedded bliss death took her husband from her side.— American Paper.
