Tr et the Jiwk-lasw Ewes.. _ BRITISH. After a period of upwards of three weeks of nearly uninterrupted fine weather, a change has taken place, and heavy showers have fallen in di6•rent parts of the kingdom since our last, by which harvest work has been more or less retarded. As yet the rain has probably done little or no harm, but a continuance of wet would prose injurious to the corn still out in the north. It is difficult to obtain definite informa tion as to what portion of the crops has been secured, anal how much remains abroad, as the proportions arc constantly changing from day to day. In the southern, the midland, and many of the eastern counties, the gnat bulk of the grain has been got into the rick yards; and even in the north cart ing was commenced a fortnight ago; and, considering the extraordinary fine weather experienced, it ix reasonable to infer that considerably snore than half of the total produce of the United Kingdom must have been saved. The whole of %hat Max secured previous to the commencement of the I week now about to terminate was carried in splendid con dition ; and, as the shower, have been partial, with intervals of dry weather between, the work has not been wholly sus suspension. There is, however, still quite sufficient corn remaining in the fields to render the weather a matter of anxious consideration. The manner in which the northern harvest may be finished is likely to make just this differ ence : in case the whole should be well got, the total yield and quality of the cereal products of the British island, would probably excel in both respects the growth of average seasons; while a coutinuanco of inauspicious weather would have the effect of so far injuring the quality, slid causing a leas of qquantity in that portion of the corn not yet carried, p metro s the general malt vadteisatly to Wog dew! the crops to a bare average, or perhaps somewhat under. The changeable weather experienced for some days past has consequently been productive of some uneasiness, and the trade assumed a firmer tune at several of the provincial markets held toward, the close of the week. We have continued our inquiries as to the yield of the different kinds of grain; and the information which has reached us since our last, from those quarters where the tot of thrashing has been tried, agrees with what we had previously learned on the subject. The quantity of spring corn hitherto thrashed has been too small to be taken as a criterion of the produce ; but farmers generally express themselves satisfied with the return, or, at all events, there is an absence of complaint, which may be regarded as a pretty sure indication that, as far as the matter has hitherto been investigated, there has been no great cause to find fault. Wheat is sail not to produce quite so well from the straw as had been expected, and we have heard instances of country millers having bought by sample before the bulk bad beeu thrashed out out, in which the quantity delivered into the mills has proved below the estimate the farmer had formed. We are, however, still of opinion, after a careful consideration of all that we have been enabled to learn, that in the principal wheat geowing counties the sercable yield will prove fully an average, and the quality wry superior. The principal markets of the agricultural districts have net hitherto been largely supplied with new grain of any kind, the low range of prices having held out little induce ment to bring corn to market. There can, however, be no doubt that the pecuniary position of many of the smaller far- , men (sebum capital has been rapidly reduced by free trade) will compel them to sell, in order to raise the needful to! meet current expenses. Of this the millers are well aware, and they are consequently not very anxious buyers at pre. sent. Meanwhile considerable supplies of foreign bread stuffs continue to reach our shores, and unless an impetus should be given to business by some unforeseen circum stance—such as a loss of a portion of the grain crops in the north by bad weather, or the spread of the potato disease— higher rates than those now current are not likely to be ma- 1 used by our growers. The advices from Scotland will for a time be regarded with more than usual interest, comparatively little erotic laving as yet been harvested in that country. The weather appears to have become cold and wet there earlier than with us, and along the western coast the crops are said to have been lodged and beaten down by the wind and rain very extensively. On the east side tile weather does not seem to have been so bad, and letters dated Wednesday state that in the Lothians harvest had not been mate rially interrupted. That no great alarm had been caused by the rain, may be inferred from the fact that business remained quiet both at Edinburgh and Glasgow on Wed nesday, with prices rather tending downwards. A letter from Arbroath states that symptoms of the potato disease had shown themselves in that neighbourhood, and it was feared that a portion of the crop would he lost. Tbe accounts from Ireland in re and to the potato blight have again become less favourable than they were eight or ten days ago; but no influence had, it appears been pro 'laced by . the reported spread of the disease, the corn mar kets having remained inactive. The weather had been Mania to that experienced on this side of the Channel, and an me nit had fallen in some parts of the island as to put • Mee le torten operations. The quality of the oats se lasud the wet set in is highly spoken of; and if that portion remining in the fields should be tolerably well got, the yield evald, it was thought, prove large. Ihe amitrals of Wheat coastwise into the port of London show a mall increase, compared with late receipts ; the supply has nevertheless been small, only 3,025 qrs. having been reported during the week ending this (Saturday) evening. The show by land-carriage samples from the neighbour ing counties has been quite trilling since our last. On Wednesday scarcely a sample was exhibited either from Essex or Kent, and, in the absence of business, quotations remained nominally unshed. The somewhat threatening weather subsequently experienced caused increased firmness an Friday, and the few small lots brought forward were easily placed at rates fully as high as those current in the beginning of the week. The receipts of foreign Wheat have been smaller than In any previous week for some time past, viz., 8,297 qrs. What was previously received has now been mostly landed, and there has consequently been less pressure to make sales from on board ship. Matters remained in a very quiet state in the early part of the week, and there was not much doing on Friday, but holders were evidently more confident, sad we question whether it would have been possible to have purchased on as easy terms on Friday as earlier in the week. The arrivals from the Levant off the coast have been moderate of late, and there are not many floating cargoes of Wheat undisposed of. Within the last few days there has been rather more inquiry for Polish Odessa, and similes' sorts, and a few humans have been concluded during the week; 325. per qr,, coat, freight, and insurance, has been paid for Polish Odessa, and 275. per qr. for Ibraila. The millers have not made any alteration in the to= tation of town-manufactured flour. Really fresh q of French have been in fair request, and have brought fill terms, while the unsound and inferior descriptions have been slmost wholly neglected. The same may be said in segued to American, a considerable proportion of the supply from thence having consisted of low qualities. The receipts of Barley have been very scanty, only 144 qrs. having come forward coastwise, and none from abroad. The misters have taken the few small lots of new which ham hitherto appeared somewhat eagerly, and fine malting lase not been sold below 30s. per qr. Tho demand gm trsefgs Barley has been of a retail character; there was, however, rather more doing on Friday than earlier in the week, and fresh Baltic qualities were held at prices fully zlititmo those previously current. The late arrivals of n barley have been mostly landed on importers' Otaient. The Inquiry for malt has not improved since our last, but I good qualities have not been sold cheaper than before. The supply of oats coastwise has consisted of only 70 qrs. From Ireland 3.5 qrs. have been received since the close of , last week, and from abroad only 11,460 qrs. The falling off in the supplies from Russia, and fears created by the unset tled state of the weather for the outstanding crop in Scot land and Ireland, have caused sellers to regain erne degree of confidence, and there has certainly been less disposition to force sales than was the ease last week. On Wednesday there was a better demand, but former rates could not be exceeded; since then. however. an advance of 6d. per qr. has been very generally established, and a tolerable extent , of lualluest was dace at the improvement on Friday.

The operations do not appear to have been important at any of the leading , markets, holders having refused to make much concession. There had at the same time been an absence of activity, end the prevailing opinion had, it appears, been against making purchases at the terms asked for Wheat. Letters from Dantsic, dated the 23rd inst., state that the ! last sales had been at prices about la. per qr. below those obtained in the beginning of the week. The total quantity which had changed hands in eight days bad amounted to only 5,000 qrs. Vessels were plentiful, and there being com paratively little corn to ship, few holders being disposed to consign to the English markets, freights were receding. Charters had been closed for London at 2s. to 2s. 6d., to Liverpool at 2s. C.d., and to Gloucester at 3s. 6d.per qr. Accounts had been received from Poland stating that the harvest had been finished in that quarter. The quality of the new Wheat would, it was thought, vary materially, but in quantity the return would be good. In the neighbourhood of Dantsie harvest had only just com meueed. The potato disease: was not spreading in that im mediate vicinity, but in Poland it was said be very gene- ral. The latest quotations from Dantsie are, Lower Polish common high mixed wheat, of 611 In. weight, 38s. 6d. • line mixed, 375. 6d. to 385.; and mixed, weighingtihibs . to ellbs., 365. 6d. to 375. per qr. free on board. Advice' from Konigsberg of the 22nd of August speak very despondingly respecting the state of the potato crop in that part, describing the disease as more general than in previous years. holders of wheat and rye had consequently asked full terms, and prices were relatively higher them than at Hamitic. Accounts from Stettin of the 22nd ult. state that the har vest was fast progressing, and a good return was expected, the weather having for two or three weeks been highly aus picious. Under these circumstances, buyers had declined to act, and the general tendency of prices had been down ward ; good qualities of red were they obtainable at &Is. per qr. tree on board. At Rostock, little or nothing appears to have been done in wheat; holders of granaries' parcel+ had shown consi derable confidence, but the land supplies had been offered I at 375. to 38s. per qr. free on board, weight 62lbs. to 621145. per buAel. The accounts from the near continental ports are of a similar character. From Hamburg we learn that hardly a sale of wheat has been made since the previous post-day, the export demand having almost wholly ceased. Good 60lbs. red Upland was then quoted 365. Sd. and from the Lower Baltic ports there had been offers of GI to 6111bs. red wheat nt 375. to 375. 6d. per qr. free on board. Barley had met with less attention than before, which was, however, in a measure attributed to the high pretensions of sellers. Now Seale, weighing .5111 s. per bushel, had been offered, deliverable in September, at equal to 255. 9d. per qr. free on hoard, without meeting with buyers. In oats nothing of interest had trawled". The advice' from Holland do not speak very favourably , of the result of the harvest in that country; still, prices of ' wheat were Is. to Is. Bd. per qr. lower at Rotterdam on Monday *lssas that day week. From France we learn that the supplies of new Wheat had begun to increase, and that the value of the article had consequently given way more or less at several of the agricultural markets. At l'aris, on Thursday, business in flour was dull, but prices were not lower than before. From the Ilesliterranean ports the isavicca arc at present without interest. _ . The most recent reports from America infant us that the wheat harvest had been nearly completed in the United States, and that the yield was larger than had been secured for year.. Indian corn was not so well spoken of. At New , York and the other large shipping ports the supplies of breathautf, had more than kept pace with the demand, and prices had suffered some further reduction. Shipments on rather an extensive scale were being made for Grcat Bri tain, and we may calculate on receiving regular supplies front the other side of the Atlantic till winter puts a stop to the navigation. THE COLT AND FLOUR TRADE. " The millers have not, as yet, lowered the top price of town manufactured flour."— Times, Aug. 25, 13;51. TO THE EDITOR UP THE EXPRESS. Silt,—l have taken the few words above from the Times of bat Monday fur a text, and it is a subject I could preach a long sermon upon; but I shall only make a few brief remarks, which, if you think worthy public observa tion, you will please to give insertion in the columns of your favoured journal. We are blessed with a bountiful harvest, and I hope God in his mercy will continue to us, a little while longer, fine weather to house and complete it. We are at all times bound to submit to Ills good providence, but it often be comes grievous and disgusting to submit to the grinding impositions of man towards man; and although the com munity have for some time enjoyed the comfort and satis faction of cheap bread, or a big loaf, still, from my own ob servation, there has been of late just grounds of complaint against the miller and baker. I believe London is accounted the most honourable and just in relation to trade and com merce of any town in the kingdom, perhaps too of the world, in all respects and every bearing, and it may be fair to ex pect that the metropolis of England takes a pride in setting a just and bright example for all the empire. But I do con fess myself angered and surprised when I read this week that ' the millers bare not, as yet, lowered the top price of town-manufactured flour." Surely something is wrong, unjust, and grievous towards the vast population of London, for I have often heard it spoken that trade and business affairs there do always move with the market.; that is, rise and fall to gether, go hand-in-hand honestly ; as wheat rises or falls to Mark-lane, so does the price of flour the same day ac cordingly. This I may say is the ordy true rule, the golden ' rule " Do as you would be done by ;-'' and by this rule the fair trader and man of judgment deals, makes his bargains, and in the end reaps occasionally an advantage upon stock in hand, and that with credit to himself. But in the country the meal and corn trade we commonly find csrricd on in this way : the moment it becomes known that a rise of wheat has taken place in Mark-lane, the miller mounts his horse to inform the bakers that the flour is so much higher, and this is done on the strength of the rise at Mark-lane, before ever he goes to a market ; when the baker clam, on imme diately as much as he can upon his bread and flour, takes a beneht upon all his stock in hand. After a rise, Mr. Editor, as you very well know, there comes a fall, and what is the result ? The thing is so com mon in the observation of the consumer, and the people are taught to submit in most cases of injustice and imposition quickly, that it may be absurd to name or touch upon the subject. The facts are dew upon which lam referring at the present time :—Up to June 9th last, wheat was stationary I believe in all markets for many months; when, in Mark lane (a criterion for all others in the United Kingdom), we found a rise of Is. to 2s. per quarter took place, the next week,June 19. another rise of la. per quarter was established, and the following . week, June 23, again it went up Is. per ' quarter, so that it may appear, that in the fortnight from 9th to 23rd of June, wheat ruse Is. to 4s. per quarter; and simultaneously, with us, flour rose to the baker (as a baker told me) Gs. per sack of 20 stone ; and the baker raised the price of a 71b. or 711 b. loaf from 10d. to Is. So far so good, if the advance throughout is consistent. But when we look on the reverse, or the contrary turn of the scale, when honest John Bull looks for,snd expects, that every man will do his duty, I do affirm that sauce which is good for the goose ought reasonably to be good for the gander; or, if John is compelled to pay an advance of one penny for his loaf on the day wheat rises in Mark lane, who will not con tend that, by the same rule of honesty and fair dealing, John should get a reduction on the self-same day that wheat drops in price at Mark-lane ? But it is worthy of remark that when a drop after drop in the price of wheat takes place at Mark-lane, the country millers and bakers are not alive to it; and if they are told they say, "Oh, it is no use taking any notice of the London papers, for wheat wu fel higher at Warwick last market day. ' Sir, I do maintain that a gospel minister of Christ might very well spin a long sermon on the text that I have taken ; but in order that I may not weary your readers, I will con clude my epistle by remarking the facts as the y lately appeared in print, via. : In Loudon, at Mark-lane, on June 30, the market took a tura, and wheat was Is. to 2s. per quarter lower; and next market day, July 7 (Monday, I mean), another drop of Is. to 2s. took place, thus bringing the price as near as possible to the steady standard so long maintained previou sly to June 9. Now, by fair play, bread ought to be lowered from 12,1. to 10d. ; but on Monday, Aug. 1, in Mark-lase, wheat again dropped in price lc to 2s. the quarter; and 11th, Is. to 2s. more; and 18th, Is. more; and 25th, Ia more—thus giving a continuous drop from week to week amounting to Ss. per quarter ; and yet the dealers in flour, even by the Mark-lane Express, don't seem to know any thing about it. Therefore there is wine excuse for us poor ignorant country traders. Our bakers have only lately become awake to these matters, and they have really gone back from 12d. to 11d. Whereas, if John Bull pays any heed to the actual rise and fall, 1 think it would be right in attending justly to it, to advance from 10d. to I2d the household loaf of 71b. odd, and as directly to decline from 12d. to 10d., and ultimately from 10d. to Bd.—still we pay lid. sir, I submit these things, candidly, to the consideration of an enlightened and liberal public, whether these things ought so to be. Fur my own part it matters little, and I have through a long life, always thought that the labourer ' is worthy of his hire, and every fair trader entitled to a liberal profit; but I have never thought that John Bull should be saddled with the speculations of dealers in the " staff of life, and wait for a drop until the last sack is gone, bought in the face of rainy weather, or a famine, an error of jud g men t. dg s ment. remarks I feel are of no avail, will amount to no thing. Yet I still am of opinion that it would be wise to legislate upon them. But, who is to do it? We are bound by the law of religion to do good to our neighbours, and love our enemies. I think the French bakers will be the men to reform some of these injustices: I have expected to bear of hot rolls for breakfast in London and other places before this baked in France. Believe me, Sir, a sincere well-wisher to trade, Leamington, Aug. 28. LEICESTEItENSIS. REMARKABLE PIIENOMENON. SIIIPBTON - oN- Srona.—lt is not a little remarkable that a second crop of wheat, which is now in flower, has sprung up in those fields that were either much injured, or entirely destroyed, by the late terrible hailstorm. And even iu those fields which were mown after the storm, a second crop has sprung up, and appears likely to be ready for the sickle by the latter end of September. In those cases where the first crop was left standing it is considerable, and the farmers are much puss.ed in deciding whether the first crop should be sacri ficed to secure the second, or the second to secure the first, as both cannot be secured. It unfortunately happens, in several cases, after the wheat was mown, either the ground was ploughed, or cattle were turnvd upon it to eat the springing blade. This was dune, of course, in ignorance of the extraordinary- compensatiog power of nature, in the tvegetable world, in the case of injury, or apparent destruc tiou.—Ozford Chronicle. RAILWAYS. THIS DAY. Two o•C Locw. The share market opened with a buoyant appear ance, quotations of most descriptions ru lin g higher, and, though a slight reaction at one time occurred, prices speedily allowed additional strength, and a general rise is now observable, in which all the lending lines, and most of the minor ones, participate. The business is not extensive, but the pressure of sales is no longer felt, and much more disposition to purchase at the present reduced rates is evinced. The statements of traffic continue good. The traffic receipts on the London and Brighton Railway for the week ending the 30th ult. being 14,480/., against 13,332!. in the corresponding week of last year, the increase is shown to be 1,1281., and the average return per mile per week 83.371. against 77.90/. last year. The South Eastern return is 20,038!., being 3,432'. more than in 1830, when it was 10,0031. Tho average return per mile is 70.83/. against 70.961. last year. !MAIMS AND sec' `KS UNOUARANTEED.

Under the influence of the customary renewal of investments by the government broker, this being the first public transfer day of the week, and with a decided disposition to purchase among the dealers, the home funds have worn a very firm ap pearance to-day, and prices are now quoted at an advance of per cent. With the return of confidence to mercantile circles, after the immoderate degree of apprehension so freely expressed, this result is but natural. Consols opened 1 higher than yesterday at 961 to 1 „ and they are now quoted 961 to '. The day's business figures are thus given in the official list : Three per Cent. Consols, 961, 96,96 f •, ditto for ac count, 961, ; 1, 1 . Three per Cent. Reduced, 96.1, 97,1. New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 98a, 1, I.

Tate unfunded securities are flat,and sales of Exche quer Bills have been effected at a decline of ls., all classes of bills being marked 455., 475. and 445. prem. India Bonds, 1,0001., have been sold at 48s. prem. Foreign stocks are quite neglected to-day. No disposition to take up n decided line of speculation in any description is evinced, and even the customary operations in the stocks held for investment arc to day absent from the market, so that, with a limited attendance of dealers, business in this de partmen is almost at a stand-still. Sar dinian Scrip remains week, and has to-day been transacted at a further fractional decline, though the present price of the bonds, in view of the tangible and improving character of the security given by the hypothecation of the railways of the state, is considered by ninny as offering a great temptation to investment, as compared with the relatively higher rates of other fo reign bonds, a rally in price being in eonsequcnce looked for. Still the contingencies of civil com motion in Italy, in many states of which the policy now pursued appears extremely likely to precipitate a crisis, form a consideration to which a due amount of attention must always be directed. Bargains are reported to-day in the fol lowing stocks only, viz.:—Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 921• Mexican Bonds, for account, 16th Sept., 281. Sardinian Scrip, 11 die. Spanish Active Five per Cents., for account, 20.4„ 1 . From the Committee of Spanish Bondholders we have received the following extract front a letter of Mr. Wcissweiler : I have since seen the Minister of Finance, and some of the members of the commission for the public debt, and I am glad to be able to inform you that the government agree to have the coupons of the new bonds payable in Lon don and in Paris in sterling money and in francs, as hereto fore. The measures for the conversion will be taken as soon as possible, and it is to take place in London, I'aris, and Amsterdam. For this purpose, Senor Borrego, who is actu ally here, is to return to Paris and London in the course of Lae present month, in order to come to an understanding with the committees and the financial agents abroad for a reciprocal satisfactory arrangement of the whole concern. This is very satisfactory, but we expect still more from the action of the committee, always supposing the committee is maintained. It may be thought by some that now the law for the settlement of the debt is passed it is not worth while spending a few hundreds a year to keep up a committee, and as many of the present holders will get rid of their bonds forthwith, they may support such a determi nation. It is, however, the duty of the committee appointed originally to protect the rights of the bondholders, to take care that proper measures arc adopted for carrying out the financial scheme ac cepted by them. After late experience it would be utterly insane to leave the bondholders without the protection of a permanent committee. There arc still many details to be arranged as to the mode of payment, and there are many occasions which will present themselves for corresponding with the Spanish government. On the one hand the finances of Spain may improve, and the proper time arrive for obtaining better terms on account of the coupons, or an advance in the deferred dividends, and on the other hand the Spanish government may get into difficulties which may threaten the safety of the dividend. If, as there is every appearance, Cuba makes good her independence, Spain will lose a very great financial resource, the surplus of the Cuban revenues constituting in fact a large part of the sum necessary to pay the agreed dividends on the foreign debt. If only as a means of watching the Spanish government, it is essential to keep up the committee, and the knowledge that there is such a constituted body will act very salutarily in preventing the go vernment from taking up measures of repudiation. Our Sardinian papers bring us the official publi cation of the decree confirming the Hamburg loan; and we have likewise received a circular of Mr. Lewis H. Haslewood, on the subject of the scrip and of the resources of Sardinia. We find by the decree that the loan dividends and sinking fund are reck oned in English money, and payable, at the option of the holder, m London, Genoa, or Turin, and within Sardinia, exempt from all taxes and sequestration, conditions essential after the conduct of the Portuguese government. Not only are the railways already constructed and yielding revenue made over as primary security to the bondholders, but they have the right, if they wish it, in case of the concession of the railways by the government, to exchange their bonds for shares at par. Thus they are guaranteed by the government 5 per cent. and the half-yearly redemption of the bonds; but if the railways shall pay more than 5 per cent., they have the option of taking the more lucra tive stock. We observe that the bonds are of various amounts, some of them being as low as 401. each. This is a good measure, as it will allow of the nego tiation of the bonds in Genoa, Turin, and other con tinental markets. By the general financial returns, we notice that the income of the railways already open, which was in the month of July, 1850, 5,907 f., in the same month of 1851 reached 8,3221., or at the rate of about 100,0001. a year. Within two years, these railways will be completed, and they will open the shortest route for the foreign trade of Switzer land, which is increasing, and now goes by the longer and not shorter route of the valley of the line. There will likewise be through the Sardinian territory tho shortest route from the Milanese to the sea. Genoa already carries on a large trade with the East Indies and South America, having hardy seamen and enterprising merchants, and the weekly returns of the National Bank, published by us this morning, show the ex tent of discounts, and thereby in some degree offer a means of judging of the trade of Sardinia. We therefore look upon the Sardinian railway system as one certain to obtain a large amount of traffic, being the natural outlet for industrious populations of nine millions, and having no rival water navigation, and communication with a port which saves the difficult voyage of the Gulf of Venice. It is more than pos sible the shares when conceded may be a valuable property, but at any rate the railways offer ample security to the bondholders, and place the stock in a favoured condition. The Netherlands Trading Company have fixed the following sales of Java coffee :—Sept. 4, 203,598 bales, at Rotterdam ; Sept. 8, 245,410 bales, at Am sterdam; Sept. 11, 20,220 bales, at Middelburg. The subjoined calculations show the rate per cent. per annum yielded by the various securities cited at the average of the pricea which ruled yesterday. Where the asterisk (*) is prefixed it is to be under stood that the share rate of interest is less the in come tax. It will be seen that in every ease we take the rate of interest last declared as the basis of our calculation. To render the calculation strictly aceti ' rate, the . proportion of interest which may h ave accrued since last dividend period should, ui each case, be taken into account: arse per Omar.

MINCING LANE.-THIS DAY. Sroan.—The tone of the market is decidedly improved— particularly for West India, which is relatively low. The public sales of Bengal and Madras arc progressing, without altering general quotations. Importers are firm. The refined market steady, at last week's prices ; grocery lumps, 451. to 495. COFFEE.—The public sales of 400 casks plantation Ceylon were chiefly bought in at high prices; the portion sold sus tained last week's quotations. Good ordinary native Cey lon bought in at 401. ; 395. offered. Mex.-2,000 bags of white Bengal sold in public tale at 9s. to 10s., which were last week's prices. SALTPETEN.-5.50 bags offered, and chiefly bought in; refraction 8:;to 9, 2fes.; refraction 18 sold at 255. to 255. &I. REM remains steady. Corrox continues firm, with a fair amount of business. In other articles no material alteration. WOOL MARKET.-THIS DAY. There is very little doing in foreign Wool, manufacturers in the country being well supplied with the Wools bought at the German fairs and the late public sales. Prices aro very firm and the stock in second hands very small. Trade in the manufacturing counties is very good,and there is every prospect of hands being fully employed through the winter, with provisions cheap fur the labouring man and his family. Messrs. W. Oreame and Co.notice the Liverpool market as fol lows, in their Monthly Circular :—" The activity noticed in the Wool trade at the date of our last report has been maintained throughout the past month, and the favourable result of the late public sales in London has tended to in crease the firm tone of the market. On the 20th ult. 3,500 bales Spanish, frontier, East India, and sundry low Wools were offered hero by public auction; the chief feature to remark in these sales was the very active demand for East India and other blanket Wools, which sold at id. to id. advance on late sales in London. We have no im provement to notice in English- combing Wools. Laid Scotch continues in fair request, without change in price. On the 12th instant about 2,000 bales will be offered by public auction, chiefly consisting of East India and other low foreign Wools." TALLOW MARKET.-THIS DAY. The market is without alteration. Advices from St. Petenburgh state that the price has again advanced to 120 rs, and the Russians now ask 122 rs. Present quotations are as follows:—Town Tallow, 375. ; l'etenburg Y. C. on the sat, 38s. ; last three months, ; January and March, BOROUGII MARKET.—THIS DAY. Messrs. Pattenden and Smith report that the first lot of four pockets of Hops, grown by /Ur. 1). Turvill, West Worldham, Hants, arrived in tho Borough this day, and were sold by Mr. Henry Snelling, Farnh.un and country hop factor, to Messrs. Pike and Leake, Borough. LOCAL SHARE MARKETS.

EVERT FARMER NIS OWN ICE-1101.73E.—1ce may be stacked—plain English ice, or snow well beaten down into a mass, after the Roman fashion, which answers for all economic purposes every bit as well. This is the mode of stacking ice or snow which has been found to succeed most thoroughly at Chatsworth. In the first place, let tho owner of the dairy farm select, not the coolest and shadiest spot, as he inevitably would do without better instruction, but the openeet and sunniest, because driest, bit of ground he can find—the sunnier the better. At Chatsworth the first trials were made in shady places, and proved far less satisfactory, because a dry place is required, and the dryness which the sun occasions more than compensates for the temperature of its beams. The platform having been judiciously selected, dig all round it a sufficient trench which is to contain the water that will, more or less, inevitably drain from the completed stack ; let the bank of the trench be lower on the outer trench, and, if necessary, a syphon tube may be put in to drain off any excess. The object of the trench is— firstly, to prevent any of the drainage water from spreading over the platform; therefore to keep the platform dry; and secondly, to preserve this drainage water, which is very cold, and can be used for making butter. Then lay inches thick. the whole platform a bed of straw , six or nine thick. Straw is a sufficient and convenient non-conductor, and ice wrapped in straw is tolerably well protected from external infiuenec. Upon the straw bed make your stack, b u ilding it with sides perfectly upright. The sides are to h e thus perpendicular, in order that whatever melts may flow at once into the trench, and not soak into and spoil the ice which remains otherwise unmeltecl. If the stack happen to be long, partitions of straw should be inserted at convenient di,tances, for the protection of one part while another portion is in use. The stack being erected in this manner, coat round the whole outside of it, and thatch it with a straw defence of eighteen inches thick. If you build the stack of snow, build in the same manner, but take care to batten it well down. A stack of ice or snow, so made and so defended, will remain good through the hot test summer, and will obviate necessity for any ice-house. Remember that all this will be done in mid-winter, when your labourers have comparatively nothing to do; when your horses are eating their heads off, and your cart-tires are rusting from idleness.—Dicketta's "Household Words.'
