Although there were very few samples on the stands, the demand for all kinds was very inactive. Nevertheless, Monday's prices were firmly supported. The condition of he supply was very middling. We were fairly supplied with foreign wheat, fresh as well as ex-granary. Fine dry qualities were taken off somewhat steadily, on former terms ; but other kinds moral off heavily, at late rates. The floating trade was rather homy, at about stationary prices. There was a steady sale for malting barley, at full cur rencies. Grinding and distilling sorts were very dull, and rather cheaper, owing to an immense influx from abroad. The supply of malt was seasonably good. Most descrip tions were in fair request. In prime, compared with Mon day, no change took place. Oats were in full average supply, and moderate request, at full quotations. The show of English was limited—of foreign, good. Beans were very dull, and, to have forced sales, lower rates must have been submitted to. The inquiry for peas was heavy, at barely late rates. The sale for both English and foreign flour was very quiet. The gnu:unctions in seeds were to a moderate extent, yet prices were supported. Cakes commanded full quo tations. CURRENT num. ENGLISH. Per Qr. 8. EMIL Kent, red, UM 65 to Oa Mr. Kerridge stated that be resided at 19, Cleveland ro.,.l. Islington, and was chairman and music a l director of the Raglan Music-hall. Last night, between the hours of 11 and 12, the defendant entered the hall and took a seat directly opposite to him. Near the end of the performance he (witness) turned to see if everything was right on the stage, when be was surprised to find the wLole of his music and the programme book thrown on to the stage. He turned and saw the defendant in the position as if he bad joist thrown the books. Some of the persons in the ball said that the defendant had thrown the music, and a police.tonstable was called and the defendant given into custody.

He says: "The blessing, which have arisen to the present gene ration of English churchmen from the teaching of Keble's hymns are so priceless, and those which it may confer on future generations so immeasurable, that Keble's executors will, I trust, retrace a step which will materially detract from the circulation of ' The Christian Year,' and impair the confiding love which is entertained for the name of its honoured author." Dean Ramsay, writing from Edinburgh, begs that, if possible, what has been done may be undone. " The alter ation, " he says, " was uncalled for : the general effect will be very sad. I am quite sure that in Scotland the effects will be what Dr. Pusey and Mr. Liddon would themselves be the first to deplore. The Christian Year' has ex ercised the happiest influence amongst us. It exhi bited deep and earnest piety in connection with church of England theology, but with no special mark of extreme opinions. Just as Watts and Doddridge wrote popular hymns with no savour of dissent, and as Toplady wrote hymns without the brand of his ultra-Calvinism, so Keble wrote beautiful and pious lines which were cordially received without suspicion by episcopalians of all shades of opinion and by many presbytmiana of all denomina tions. The whole aspect of the case will be changed by this alteration. Keble will be held up as the champion of the Romanist party in the church of Eng land. A few hesitating expressions of • man who had passed his threescore and ten will be made to counteract the happy effects of ninety-five editions of ' The Chris tian Year.' I had hoped to see a noble centribution from Scotland of a general character to the memory of the sacred poet. With the proposed alteration it cannot be — I speak at least for myself, and I believe I speak for others. Is it too late to recall the decision ? potato to S3l Scotch, teed Foal Per Qr. WHLIT. I.

Mr. Gibbons was counsel for the com plaining parties, and the defendant did not appear. In the first ease, " Houghton and Wife v. Balding," it ap peared that Mrs. Houghton was driving • cart and horse at Snetsham, Norfolk, where her husband was • plumber, when the defendant, • farmer in the neigh bourhood (whom Mr. Gibbons, in his address to the jury, described as being in a state of intoxication), ran with his horse and cart against her vehicle, end she was thrown out and much injured. Her appearance in the wit nees-box denoted that she had suffered severely, and her husband, who was also examined, said the defendant had paid the doctor, and he did not want heavy damages. He lost 201. by the accident, end the jury gave 301. damages. In the second case, " Parson, and Wife v. Balding," it appeared that Mrs. Parsons, the mother of Mrs. Houghton, was in the cart with her daughter when the collision occurred. She had suffered very much, and exhibited her arm to the jury, which bad been perma nently injured. She had, as well as her daughter, been attended by a chemist named Clarke, who was called as a witness. Mr. Gibbons told the jury that he was satisfied with the verdict in the last case, and he thought the awe of Mrs. Parsons was entitled to the same consideration. Mr. llnder S heriff i.;;lT•ripplaTingrhecasel;i;Wit; jury, said the accident WAS very severe to the old woman, who had been permanently disabled in ben right hand. The defendant did not appear, and had admitted. his Mill conduct, leaving the matter to the jury to amen the amount of compensation. The jury awarded 20f. In each case the damages were laid at 5001.

It is anticipated in most quarters that the Bank rate of discount will soon be reduced, notwith- ' standing the changes shown in the re turn just published, which are incidental to the period of the year. Next Wednesday the payment of the dividends will commence, and on that and the three following days the supply of money in the general discount market will largely increase.

The return of the Bank of England for the week ending Wednesday, Jan. 2, compared with that for the previous week, shows the following changes : Circulation issue £33,429,100 Increase £121,220 Circulation active 23,6,1445 Increase 1,363,480 Public deposits 8,162,130 Decrease 544,231 Other deposits Government securities is banking deportment 13,111,068 Increase 99,846 Other securities in banking department 22,816,503 Increase 2,575,247 Coin and bullion in Loth 1.7 departments Seven day and Mimi bills 458,443 Increase 7,833 The Rest 3,290,285 Increass 25,508 . - - Note. in reserve Total reserve (notes k coin) in banking department... 11,128,517 Decrease 1,185,977 This return presents numerous points of interest. The government payments at the end of the year have caused a diminution of 544,2311. in the Trea sury balance, and have of course tended to swell the circulation. During the week under notice, a sum of 800,0001. became payable on account of the dividend of 4a. in the pound to the creditors of Overend, Gurney, and Co., yet, owing to the anxiety of mercantile firms to have good balances at their bankers on the 31st December, the pri vate deposits have increased fully two million. At the same time the demand for money usual at the turn of the year has caused a sudden increase of more than two and a half millions in the advances on " other" secu rities ; but, viewing this item in connexion with the increase in the private deposits, it would ap pear that the demand is of a transient nature. The effect of these various changes upon the re serve is a decrease of 1,185,9771., but this decline is of no importance whatever at the present junc ture when the Bank is overflowing with money. It is somewhat remarkable that the increase in the coin and bullion more than exceeds the amount sent into the Bank from abroad during the week, so that the demand for coin for the multitude of small payments usual at this season must have been supplied from other sources.

In the first instance, with regard to the sensational water jump,' I certainly thought it extremely awkward, but fancied that mine being • young, fresh hone, and a very fine and bold jumper. would be sure to get over it. This opinion I considered myself justified in forming from the very tine manner he jumped at Chertsey, without a mis take, the week before, where he was second in • race the first day. and won a race the wend, in which every other horse fell. The result proved that I was wrong. I have only to add that two years ago a horse of mine which I considered more valuable than Voightlander ever was broke his back when walking over a small drain into a reed after hunting, and last year another horse had his leg broken by a kick when being led to exercise. I was just as much surprised at either of the latter results I was when witnessing poor Voightlander's sad fate from the steward's stand at Croydon, and I consider that myself and stud-groom, the riders in the last instances, are quite as guilty of cruelty to animals as the gentleman and fine horseman who rode Voightlaader for ma at Croydon. —I am, sir, your obedient servant, RICHARD COOTE.
