A 11111111M1r of persons have seceded from the ; dab church of Caine, in Wilts, in consequence of the P:wyite tendencies of the vicar of the parish and the of Salisbury. The seceders are about to build a i2ilireh where an anti-ritualistic form of worship will be rued. Ter PRINCESS of WsLas.—Several almshouses were recently erected in Margate to commemorate the •J. arrlv.l of the Princeas Alexandra off that port prior t., her marriage with his Royal Highness the Prince of Woks. A bazaar is about to be held in furtherance of the o , ..ects of the charity, and her Royal Highness the Prio r of Walex, in a letter enclosing a cheque for 211., .I.hes "every suecesa to a charity the foundation of which • connected with so interesting an event in her life as her tut arrival off England." E AewßJs n ur or YORK.—The Archbishop of 1 . /: will leave England for the Continent on Tues4lay, 6th of August, and will be absent for about six weeks. IPENINI3 l/F rug OYSTER SzAsox.—The oyster esaoo prnper, which commences on the 4th of August, nil closes on the 12th of May, was opened this morning at billing..gate. The ancient duty imposed on the clerk of the market of ringing the bell was observed at 5 o'clock, Aid the market was then proclaimed open. Thirty-four riars ago there were no leas than SO boats brought along tillingsgate and in front of the Custom-house Quay, .:en with oysters ; but gradually the number became re 'aced to 20 or lta, and this morning only six vessels ale their appearance. This diminution is due to the ',,t of large quantities being conveyed to London per rail ~ roughout the year, irrespective of the " season.” Hence `e mall sea-borne supply, and the extraordinary prices The real Whitstable " natives" fetched - this . . . -urniug RI. per bushel, being an advance of IF. compared nth last year's prices ; 50s. were asked for " pearls," gainst 445. last year ; " collies" sold at 405., last year's :oration being 35i. ; and " commons" and other inferior Ids realised 14s. the bushel. Several West-end trades tea had previously given their orders, and in other re flects the purchasers were not numerous. At the retail star in Fleet-street the price was Is. 4d. per dozen. Uotoset. A KROYD, M.P., AND THE REFORM E:LL-112 the course of a letter to the Halifax Working Men's Conservative Association, in response to a vote of thinks for assistance rendered to the government in passing tie Reform Bill, Colonel Akroyd says :—" The assistance I tendered was perfectly independent of party. I felt that the time had arrived when party should give way to pgriothsni, and when the first interests of the country demanded the prompt settlement of the long.pending ;oration of reform ; and I believed that such settlement mold, under the present aspect of affairs, be best scomplished under the present government. With but giving my unqualified approval of the bill as it now Kande, I accepted it along with a majority of the House `Commons as the best practical solution of the many disliculti es which beset the question. This conclusion lull, I think, ultimately gain the assent of the bulk of the liberal as well as the conservative party. Constitutional government, under any ministry, is not an easy task— !nth a factious and determined opposition it might be fpossible. I consider it, therefore, the bounden duty the opposition fur the time being, to extend to the Isa.lees of the government a generous forbearance, and to assist in passing useful measures; whilst, on the other hand, it is not less their duty to stay the progress of me se legislation." HALP A YEAR'S RAIN,—Tho variation in the quantity of rain in different s u, of the kingdom is shown In the returns just published the Registrar-General. In the first half of the year 1 20•5 inches of rain fell at Erste!, 201 at Glasgow, 181 at Sheffield, 15•5 at Bir beighain, 15:4 at &Hart, 14'1 at Manchester, 14 at Edin- Lugh, 131 at Dublin, 13 at Leeds, 12* at London, 10'1 at Liverpool, and onle . ft at Newcastle, PERSONAL AND KRAL PROPERTY.—MT. Plunket tee hardly done justice to this last-mentioned quality of ha grandfather, and in conclusion we beg to offer him an 'nenlote not recorded in his book. An aide-de-eamp of Led Wellesley's had recently published his travels in the tot, under the title of " A Personal Narrative of a Jour. WY from Bagdad, kc."

There was a very limited quantity of English wheat on offer here to-day. Yet, as the weather has heroine favour able for harvest work, the demand for all kinds ruled heavy, at almost nominal prices. To have forced sales, lower fates touht have been submitted to. The show of foreign wheat was good: Selected samples were held at full quotations ; but all other kinds were offered on rather easier terms. Foreign barley commanded extreme rates, with a fair inquiry. No English was brought forward. The malt trade WAS in a sluggish state, on former terms. The supply of malt was moderately extensive. Selected oats were steady in price, but heated samples were very dull. Beans sold at late rates, with a fair demand. White peas were hell at Is. per quarter above the rate. current on Monday last. O rep and maple qualities were firm. The flour trade was very quiet. The floating grain cargo trade has undergone much fluctuation owing to the changeable state of the weather. For fine cargoes of wheat late rates were steadily sup ported. hut inferior parcels could only be disposed of on easier terms. Taganrogr:hirka was especially lower as the quality of these shipments is much below their usual standard, the wheat being largely mixed with rye ; prices consequently, have declined le. to 2s. For future delivery there has been a fair demand at late rates. Several cargoes, originally in tended for the English market, have been taken for the Continent. We quote Berilianaki, 44)5. ; Ghirka.

We have a larger supply of beasts, and trade is dull. Prices for all kinds are lower, and several remain unsold. There are only • few more sheep, but the demand has considerably decreased. It is difficult to maintain late prices for the most saleable descriptions, and other kinds are lower. Lambs are now selling at about the came price as sheep, we therefore cease to quote them.

THE HARVEST IN THU ICAST.—Harvest operations will be in full swing in the eastern district in about ten days. In the neighbourhood of Halesworth wheat pro mises to be a fair although not a bulky crop. Barley on I mixed and well-farmed soils in the earns district looks well, bat on the strong soils the prospect is not so good, and an 'average crop is not anticipated, either as regards quantity or quality. Beans are a fair crop, and peas are about an average. In Norfolk wheats are strong and bulky, hut the quality of the sample and the weight of the grain will depend on the weather of the next month. Barleys have somewhat improved, but are not expected to prove a liberal cro_p_. Oats, beans, and peas will be a full average. METROPOLITAN FREE HOSPITAL, DEVONSHIRE SQUARE, Crrr.—The aggregate number of patients relieved during the week ending August :1 was—Medical, 940; mar gieal, 740 ; total, 1,685 ; of which 782 were new mica.

There is an demand to-day fur public securities, and the gomeral tendency of prices is upwards. Purchases, both fide and specu lative, have been induced by the absenee of un favourable political news from abroad, the fine weather, the indisposition of the public to support new foreign loans, and the announcement of the shipment of a further sum of 200,0001. in gold from New York for Europe. Consols have im proved A per cent., Briti di railways to ii, and the speculative f..reign stocks !, to I. Russian securities, however, are still offered. Attention will be directed duriir: the next few days to the monthly sett:cm:nit in the English fundr. There is n. change in the discount market. The supply of money is still sett' large, while few bills are being oth.red. The rate is 1:! to per cent. The charge for short loans in the Stock Exchange is IJ, per cent. Consols are quoted 94i to f., 1 for money and next Thnrnlay's settlement, and 941 to 4 for the new account (Sept.). The Three per Cents. Reduced and New Three per Cents. are firm, at 931 to 94. The railway market is firm, with a fair amount of business. Caledonian stock has improved A per cent. ; Midland, ; Metropolitan, Great Western, London and North Western, and Lancashire and Yorkshire,i; amid South Eastern and Great Eastern,! • London and North Western stock is quoted 1114 to ; Great Western, 42 to A ; Midland, 1161 to A ; Lancashire: and Yorkshire, 128 to A ; Great Northern, IIOA to 111 A ; ditto A, 111 to 112 ; Great Eastern, 2% to 4 : South Lastern, 64g to ; Caledonian, 110 to 111 ; North British, 31 to 32 ; Metropolitan, 121:j to 1221 : London, Chatham, and Dover, 16 to A ; and London, Brighton, and South Coast, 404 to A. Turkish bonds of 1863 and Spanish Passive are in request, and have risen } per cent., the present prices being 3t): to 31, and 21i to respectively. Spanish Certificates and Italian of 1861 are better; the former are 4,,l"ted. 1I to ; 2 ,, and the latter, 48 to 1. Turkish of 1862 are called 561 tol; Greek, 13„ to t*: ; and Mexican, 15} to ft, being steady. Russian securities are heavy, and the scrip of the Orel Vitebsk Railway loan has fallen to 2 discount. Bank shales are unchanged, but the tone of the market is eat. ~n.e of the present prices are as follows :—Chartered Mercantile of India, &c., 25 to 27 ; City, 12 to 14; Imperial Ottoman, 21 to 11 dis. ; London and County, 55 to 56 ; London and Westminster, 98 to 99 ; and Union of London, 39 to 40. Very few• dealing.; have been recorded in financial shares, but Credit Foncier are 26.6 d. better, at 5 to g dia. International Financial are quoted 21 to 2.1 ; London Financial, 24 to 23 dia. ; and Gene ral Credit, 22 to 21 dia. American securities show steadiness. The 5-20 bonds are quoted 72,1 to 731. Erie Railway shares, 471 to 48i, and Illinois Central, 76{ to 77. Atlantic cable shares are without variation. Anglo-American are called 17i to 181, and Atlantic Telegraph 8 per cent, preference, 3l to I. The half-yearly meeting of the Dagenham (Thames) Dock Company will be held on the 28th inst., to receive the report of the directors and the balance sheet up to the 31st ult. A loan for Russia is not likely to be taken hero to an extent that can affect our money market in any appreciable degree. Tho same may probably be said with regard to the loans which Italy, Spain, and other foreign states are anxiously looking for an opportunity of launching. It is clear that the English public will only embark very sparingly in transactions of this nature, the chief object of which is to enable thriftless governments to post pone that reduction of armaments and general re trenchment which, in the common interest of man kind, ought long ago to have been carried out, Such states have no alternative but to bring for ward fresh loans every six or twelve months ; and, as a rule, each succeeding issue is offered at a price that lops off a large portion of the capital embarked by the holders of the previous loans. It is high time that so unfair and demoralising a system should be put an end to. A call of 10!. per share has been made in the matter of the Asiatic Banking Corporation, now in liquidation, payable next month. The directors of the Manchester and Liverpool District Banking Company have announced that a half-yearly dividend of 15s. a share, and also a bonus of ss. a share, both clear of income tax, will be payable on the 14th inst. The directors of the Midland Waggon Company have decided to recommend the usual dividend of 15 per cent, carrying forward a balance to the new account of 13,8611. The half-yearly meeting of the Northern and Eastern Railway Company is called for the 21st inst., and that of the North and South Western Junction Railway Company for the 23rd. The receipts of the Great Western Railway of Canada, for the week ending the 10th inst., were 12,3451., being 1,102!. more than in the correspond ing week of last year. It appears from a notice just issued by the Spanish Financial Commission in London that the Board of Public Debt, having been apprised of the discovery at Barcelona of forged bonds of Three per Cent. Consolidated Internal Stock, series D, E, and F, has ordered the description of the conspicuous defects which they contain to be published. The following gloomy remarks with reference to the condition of the iron trade, and of business generally, are from Ryland's Iran Trade Citraiar : We regret to my that business information from the *entree of commerce and manufacture in Loudon, Liver . I, Manchester, and Glasgow is, in every respect, of a esponding character. No complaint is made of depres sion in prices, but simply of the entire absence of sales and of onions leading up to the hopeful employment of cud. tad and the conducting of large works. That numerous great cools:nal will have to be stopped in the coming winter, and that great numbers of working men will be neoewarily discharged, appears now to be placed beyond doubt. What ever may be the ultimate result of present foreign compli cations. that which happened at the time when the Luxem burg question was under discussion is likely to recur again sa respect' the Schleswig-Holstein .Idficulty. The , ouutingency of dispute, tending to war, again occurs at the season previous to orders being arranged and given out, so that although hostilities may be permanently avoided, still the season is none the less spoiled. That the harvest will be short in France, only medium in England, defective in Prussia. awl bad in Reside is now sure. This, of course, , materially affects the internal welfare of the country ; as every shilling that goes out for wheat — beyond the ordi nary annual amount due to the inseam of our population —is just so much lost to the body of English farmer', who ought to have produced the corn for which it it paid. We ' may calculate, indeed, that the present prospects of bar- , vest will entail an expenditure of fifteen millions out of the country, that would otherwise have been laid out within it. It is curious to consider here an alliance between Russia , and Prussia might inconvenience us for the time to the, extant of from GO to 70 per cent. of our wheat supply, and that a general bad year with trade would have checked 86 I per cent. of our surplus fund This year the l'nited States will come to the rescue, and as they are our bw.t customers, we trust the iron trade will reap the benefits. With regard to the cotton trade, we find the sub joined remarks in a circular issued by Messrs Thomas Thorburn and Co., and dated London, Saturday : At the close of the season in America and Bombay (the two sources from which we draw our principal supplies of cotton) it should not be uninteresting to look at the posi tion of the article. Of statistics there are ply nty, showing— as compilers are sanguine or otherwise—results diametri cally opposed to each other. The unpreceds nteddeprerion and steady fall for the past few months may be traced to a variety of circumstances. The fears of an accumul►tion of stock such as took place last year—the lessee on cotton imported from America—the general neediness of ion- _ld Ii - xd _id 81 1 , 39} xdtts q I 081 0 8 id i 21 porters—the effects of the pani•.: of ia.t year, and hence the utter .learth of speculators, the scat cit) of credit in the market awl the caution of hankers—all these have an fa•ourably intluenced the market. The new maws ia India, whereby it i= feared thit the hanks will have mere control of the cotton than the real importers, ingrains the depression, becr...e bankers axe known to be free sellers, especially when the acceptors of the drafts can pay the lose. In regard to toe pre,eht price of cotton the grid question that occur, to us is whether the price of lOid. per lb. for middling Orle a ns is too high or too low, se exactly justified by the cost of production, and the pressed and prospective supply and demand. This is a problem of such difficulty, that ye can only attempt to give • partial solution, ly putting the following question sad stating the facts as to supply from all sources so fez as known. If with four millions of slaves, America could ship cotton from her ports at sd. per lb., which kit • fair profit to the plar.ter. at what price is it probable she can do it now., four ye de' war, the eiosnch ation of the :aforesaid alas", to; .1 disurgahisation of labour and niachinery, arid the ...Treat increase in the cost of all pro visions, to say uothini of cue temporary scarcity of grain ? There are those who attempt to prove that with the United States intern,' tax. there is no profit iu selling cotton at the ports at per 10.. and there ore others who argue that as ' , laurels are selling " middling " et 10d. or under, they cab aiford to do FO. It is probable the attempted proof is as wile of the truth as the ridicules, argument just stated. but one thing is evident, that whatever may be the cost of production, the quantity. cannot neat *caw!: coa.e near the out-turn before the war. &YUMA!

CArrAry 111.tnrrAr.—I often wondered where and when Marryat bad found the time to cultivate his own mind, for he had had but few advantages of actual educe tim. I suppose it was from the great power and habit of observation which herpoesessed that he learnt intuitively. There was hardly a scientific subject upon which I.e was not well informed, besides being, as all the world know!, a practically s cientific man. I have beard him regret that he was not born n century later than his tithe ; as he con sidered the worl.l in a scientific point of view .5 compare tively in its intincy. He used to prophesy of the great discoveries yet to be made in steam and in electricity. He took a great interest in magnetism and in phietiology, in both of which be was, lan sure, a firm believer. He bad been told by Townshend that be was hitaself a Ina erfal mesmerist ; but I do not think he ever tested his power. There was hardly a modern language of which be hail not some knowledge—grammatical knowledge I mein. So far as speaking them went, although he would rattle off unhesitatingly French, or German, or Itantn, or whatever was called fur at the moment, his thoroughly British tongue imbued them all with so much of the same accent, that it was dittidult to know what the langitih.e was meant for ; indeed, he used to tell a story of how an Italian, after listening to one of his long speeches in his purest Tuscan, apologized to him and said be did not un derstand English. Marryat ran away to sea at 12 years of limited so that at best his educAtion must have been very JLigaz.s, for August. ter ,ok- tho hers Lint, the two we f wt tont 114 rri pti- u4l' t of hen the noont ▪ the I Jobs A the . g woo friKht' it half there 'net ill 9 I ni 27 10 1 1- 11& Ilik id 4} zit xd al.
