The number of beasts is large ; notwithstanding the fa vourable weather, trade is very dull, and Monday's prices cannot be realised. The supply of sheep is by no means large, but it far exceeds the demand. A. few of the choicest qualities make nearly as much as on Monday, but inferior are very unsaleable. Good calves are readily disposed of at fully late rates. Our foreign supply consists of 132 beasts, 820 shelf, and 124 calves.

Emigrants arrive at the rate of 1,000 to 2,000 per weak ; of these many live in tents. Cones' Town, near Melbourne, consists of many hundreds of tents fanning regular streets, and when all sorts of trades are ear ned on. Houses of all shapes and sizes risi with • rapidity and in numbers sufficient to cover several miles of the land near Melbourne. They are built of every sort of material ; many most substantially of stone or brick, but very many more of sheet-iros or sine, or tin, and eves old packing eases, and some oiturt en mad. More than two-thirds of these built within the piet a:a /ear are wooden.houres, slay of which are im complete and ready lot Ming. These arebuilt upon blocks, and a cottage of two to fear rooms may, by • couple of handy workout, be begin and finished in • week. Of course these hasty erections will be short-lived, and require binning over again in:a year or two. Of the new-arrived pw•ple many are disappointed, and sick at heart with their vent are. These ere those who love comfort, and enjoyed a pool home is their native place, and who moot bear the hardship sod rough laborious life so emus= here sad who cannot afford the heavy expenses attendant ou making a comfortable home, or who cannot readily find a light MI6 ployment. To others it is very different. A good farm fee garden labourer, or bricklayer's labourer, or bandy spades. tau, can go to work and earn from 10s. to 14s.Ad i z and if a sober, hardy, single man, content with and bard lodging, he may save two-thirds of 111 samaggs.

Clothing, shoes, and tools are getting much cheaper; and I cannot think that rent and wages will maintain their present rates long. It may surprise you, after the above statements, if I say I would advise every man who is doing pretty well at home to remain there.

The directors offered to take the lay mail be tween the Waterford sad Limerick Junction at the rate of Is. per mile, the same as paid to the Great Southern and Western, and at a still lower rate. provided the Post-office would send the night mail also at a moderate rate. The sum received by the Great Southern and Western is ss. per mile for the night mail, or 801 per day, being 20,2001. per annum. The Postsouter-General's reply ii to the effect that the demand of la per mile by the Waterford and Vistula Company very far ezeeeds the amount which the correspondence to be benefited would justify, and that the auth.•rstses regret under the circumstances they will be unable to meet the wishes of the memorialists by establish ing a day post between Waterford and Limerick. There is no doubt that many of the railway demands on the Poet office arc esorbitaaL THE SciIooLKAsTER ABROAD. —The following carious incident is reported from Lauver Bavaria:—A peasant died, and was laid out for burial. His niter, who lived in the house, watched an opportunity when she be• lieved no owe saw her, and then stealthily pinned a letter to the grayeelothes. That letter was addressed to her mother, who , lied 14 year. ago, and it was the poor woman's belief that her uncle would find means to deliver it in the land of the deed. It is to the following purpose Dear Mother.—As there is now such a good opportunity, I send you this little letter, with the request that you will cause me to dream three numbers in the lottery, for I suppose yon ate aware that I am very badly off. Maybe that this piper gets rotten, but, as nothing is impossible with God, please to entreat our Lord (Md (Herrgott), end live me news of the three numben which are sure to sin, and so, I remain, your faithful daughter.—Maria." The direction was, " To my dead Mother in Eternity.”— !Wrier &dung.

At 4 o'clock the pries had rallied to 941 to 1. The advance in the middle of the day appeared to be mainly caused by purchase. to cover previous speculative sales, and was followed by some influential selling. Money was in _more active demand in the Stock Exchange to-day. The official business report is as follows:-Three per Cent.

In creased firmness was temporarily given to this stock yesterday afternoon, by a purchase of 20,0001. in the Five per Cents., an operation conducted on a foreign order, and believed to be on account of the Russian government, which is anxious to support the price. Spanish remains flat. Mexican and other specula tive securities showed dulness. Peruvian Four-and a-Half per Cents. declined 1 per cent. At 4 o'clock Mexican Bonds were quoted 243 to I.

In Mincing-lane to-day, native Ceylon coffee ad vanced about 6d. per cwt. Letters have been received to-day from Odessa to the sth inst., but the only fact of interest men tined in them consists in the arrival of no less than ND merchant vessels at Constantinople from the westward, the greater portion of which will pro-1 bably find their way to Odessa, to load grain, unless Weal political considerations should render such • 1 Nein inadvisable. The Commercial Bank of London has given notice that it will pay in due course the half-yearly divi dend, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, on the Ontario, Simooe, and Huron Railway bonds, falling due on the Ist January. A half-yearly dividend, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, is advertised as payable on the stock of the National Provincial Bank of England on the 13th January.

The intelligence of the withdrawal of Lord to Palmerston from the Cabinet caused the funds to mi l open at a fall of Ito 1 per cent., but a partial rally in hu since ensued, and the present quotations are only 1 per cent. worse than they closed yesterday. The se tone of the market, however, is depressed. Money ILL is in demand in the English st ook market at 4 per cent. /0 and upwards.

HAIR AND HAIR-DRESSERS.—The importance of the trade in hair in this country, and the attention paid to its culture and due order, may be estimated from a glance at the statistics of those engaged in it in the metropolis alone. Pigoes Directory" for 1840, contained the names of 950 hair dressers in Londan, and about the same number in the provinces. According to the " London Directory" of the present year (1853) there are the fol lowing persons exclusively devoted to the speciality of the human hair:—Three hair merchants (large wholesale importers probably) ; 17 hair manage turers ; 24 artistes, or workers in hair—hair jewel. lees, or device workers as they may be termed— who elaborate the hair of our deceased friends and relatives into such memento mo, i as ring., brooches,tearrings, chains, end other fanciful ornaments; 660 hair dressers, barbers, &e., and 27 wig makers; besides hair manufacturers ; but I am doubtful whether the latter are merely preparers of the hair for the wig and artificial ringlet makers, or belonging to the former division of workers in hair. The law wig makers, who use horse-hair, are a separate class of the trade. The number of apprentices and assistants employed by these various persons in town and country it is impossi ble to estimate with any degree of accuracy.— Rowland on His Hair. ifill. OIL BAHL Pd.

ARTIFICIAL PROPAGATION OP SALMON ON THE Tax.—The ponds fur this purpose are situated on the river batik near Sioremountfield, the spawning boxes being 16 feet above the summer level of the river. The water which supplies the ponds is taken from Stortmouutfield lade (but owing to the impurity of the Tay during spates, a supply is also to be taken from a neighbouring spring), by a pipe with a valve into a filtering pond; from thence it is carried by a canal along the upper end of the spawning boxes, through which it runs. These boxes arc S 4 feet long by one foot six inches broad, and three feet deep. They are placed with a fall of six inches, so as to allow the water to flow freely through them, and are partly filled—first with a layer of fine gravel, next coarser, and lastly with stones somewhat coarser than road metal. In distributing the ova, it is gradually poured out of the vessel which holds it, at the upper end of the box. The water flowing downwards carries it amongst the stones, sud.x which it settles down, and by gently applying a few buckets of water at the upper end of the boxes the ova is taken down and distributed equally amougst the gravel. When the young fry are in • proper state they are allowed to escape into a pond situated at a foot lower level than the bases, where they will be fed and allowed to remain until sue time as they are in • fit state to be turned into the river. 'lbis pond is not yet made, but will be finished by the time the fry are hatched. Great care has been taken to prevent any animal entering with the water that would prey upon the young fish. Mr. Ramsbottom, from Clitheroe (who has experimented suc cessfully for the Messrs. Ashworth en the Lough Corrib waters, in Ireland), has the hole management of the Tay ponds. Saturday was a remarkably fine day for the season, and we we:e privileged in being peeve t at the eperation of stripping the fish. When we left the river side upwards of 400,010 ova in tine condition had been ..pained. In the math of March tho fry will have burst their shell, when we hope to report farther.—North British Mail. MATRIMONIAL TRADE.—Yesterday there were 111 proclamations for marriage in the barony parish, and 78 in the city parish—a number altogether unpr, cerleoreo i n one day. No doubt the proclamation trade would be propor tloaately elastic in the Govan and other suburban perishes. Despite the rise in the price of provisions, thW still be tokens a comfortable condition amongst the working classes, to which these parties, no doubt, principally belong, and who get proclaimed thus early in the month, that the knot may be tied before the old year has run its coarse.— Glasgow Herald. TRADE IN SOUTII CAROLINA.—The Charleston Mercury of Nov. 23 has the followinir news:—At a public sale of negroes yesterday by Colonel D. Condy very high prices were obtained. A girl of 16 was sold for 776 dole., one of 18, 790 dole.; one of 20, 760 dole. ; a man of 40, a labourer, 770 dols.; and a boy of 18, apprentice to $ tailor, 900 dole. We noticed also the sdeof a tract of lan in Christ Church, about six miles from Moult Pleasant, of about 320 acres, for 4,000 dais. Taking the stringency of the money market into consideration throe prices indicate as advat.eing tendency in both land and negroes. DUMAS IN AMERICA.— Alexander Dumas has written a letter to a friend in Net/ York, in which he says: —" Find for me on the borders of the St. Lawrence, the Hudson, the Delaware, or the Ohio. a center where, sur rounded by my chosen friends, I may spend my last dap, and die in tranquillity under the sun of liberty." It is stated that M. Dumas has already ',alibi. 0 several manu script weeks to the hands of his agsirs, who have esta blished a publishing house in New York, tor the purpose of brining them out originally and exclusively in this city. The manuscript ef hiecamedy,the " of Louis XIV.," which was prohibited at the Theatre Francais, is in the Ihands of his agents. Several of our in inn are in nego. dation for its production.—New York 7'r•eune.
