Great inactivity prevailed in the demand for wheat in most of the country markets held on Saturday. In prices, however, no mAterial change took place. The barley trade ruled dull, at barely stationary figures. In other kinds of spring corn, as well as in flour, only a moderate business was doing. Most of the Continental markets have been rather (lull for wheat and other articles, and prices have been with dif ficulty supported. High rates for both wheat and flour con tinue to reach us from New York. The Warden,. By Anthony Trollope. 1 vol. Longman and Cc. r. , ,,ndon N. L. &N.W. E. Un. E.

The Warden is a Mr. Harding, a gentle, honourable, and esti• mable clergyman, who has been appointed by his old friend, the Bishop of Barchester, to the war denship of an establishment called Hiram's Hospi tal. Twelve old men of the town of Barchester were, by the will of one John Hiram, entitled to be maintained, clothed, and lodged in the hospital. As, in the case of many similar bequests, the value of the property had greatly increased; and, though Mr. Harding on his appointment aided twopence a day to the men's allowance, still a great discre pancy existed, the pensioners receiving each one his e s ,Wsivrhi Warden's i dat n eesh g nne sixpence. l3 l o:fit: tvbruyhtoi. tbeeas,rtsyiwi,ahtAii position,tanaehdrlkto aarse Ac a oluieinl cdi c co. lblcebdai high-soundingoleat y .: befaecdo , toi would.

The task was the less incumbent, upon n old h is ho dai l ous t etsdly a r :e a nit i vols c oli e sepet h nce ; enod e ne ( iy i .o d taeasirusornoe o t :afgli o f tgdnc. tniiihtattti in security tcswivi ß heo chi ef h i ceir s lue. h vdnri o Hiins p t C psyca i I neur a do(d a ti r fedi a n nd: C e d iig t nii(m e s:n such course would be the sure modec; : i encouraging the Church's enemies, and be deserting his post in the hour of danger. Poor Mr. Harding endured it for some time, but at length, driven desperate by two articles in a leading newspaper, he escaped the vigilance of the Archdeacon, rushedto London, and resigned his lucrative but most unenviable position. By this time, however, John Bold had consented to the entreaties of the fair Eleanor Harding„ to aban don the.ca.use, and so both sides , left the matter where it was. The hospital is deserted and ne glected, the old men die off and are not replaced, and the survivors find to their- dismay, instead of each man having the hundred' a year they had ex pected, they only lose the twopence a' day Mr. Harding had given them. The ex-Warden retires to a quiet lodging, to the disgust of the Archdeacon, and his daughter becomes Mrs. Bold: This is the substance of the book, but it gives a faint idea of the.keen *observation, knowledge of life, and satiri cal sketches contained in it. Some well-known characters are introduced under very transparent disguises. Few will fail to recognise Carlyle and Dickens among them, and the graceful testi mony to the part the " twenty shilling num bers" have taken in the reformation of many great abuses, will be generally appreciated. Bar chester and its dignitaries are evidently in tended for portraits ; but the unsatisfactory point it was simply intended to exemplify the frequent of the book is its having seemingly no •object. If misappropriation' or such funds, and the inconsist ency of the guardians of such establishments being rich men, while keeping strictly to the letter of the will, and not either enlarging the number of recipients or increasing their allowance, the end would be easily attained. If, on the other hand, the author was opposed to innovations, lie might easily have taken the other side and made out a more favourable case for the delinquents, repre sented the danger of alterations, &c. But he does ydgteee e : neither one nor the other, or rather he does both. He says that the old men had all that they wanted, were quite happy, and succeeds in giving the im pression that John Bold did a great deal of harm and no good by his meddling, while the injustice of the case is evident. With this exception, most readers will derive pleasure from its perusal, from its lively satire, its clever delineation of character and sketches of real life. t. 7 - 99 ,99 - 101 A.Nrti ICaldonian 133 - 135 irt.

The Baltic : its Gates, Shores, and Cities ; with a notice of the White Sea. By th© Rev. Thomas Milner, M.A., F.R.G.S. Longman and Co. The interest with which, until the formal an nouncement of the return of our fleet from the icy waters of the Baltic, everything connected with that sea was regarded, is reviving, and likely by all accounts to reach its culminating point during the present year. The appearance, therefore, of the work before us is very opportune, while, irre spective of such a consideration, it cannot but be welcomed as containing useful information respect ing a region eminently deserving of attention, on account of its remarkable physical geography, active and important commerce, and historical and scien tific associations. As the author remarks—" Few parts of the globe ha're a more unique natural cha racter, or can boast of such a catalogue of illustrious names connected with their shores." These furnish topics which are illustrated with much ability, and possess a permanent interest. The Microscope : its History, Construction, and Applications. By Jabez Hon'. M.R.C.S. The volume before us is a familiar introduction to the use of the microscope and the study of mi croscopical science, and the public is largely in debted to th e au th or for a work on the subject, so easily to be understood, so amusing and instructive. With considerable clearness and skill he lays before the reader the history and construction, and points out the various applications of this wonderful in strument, to which every department of art and science has in turn been indebted. Some readers, enamoured of the subject, may deem the work too succinct, but we think the author has wisely re frained from composing too bulky a book, and has thereby added to its practical value by insuring its popularity. Every one, after reading it atten tively, will know how to use and manipulate the instrument, and few but will be better informed as to its scope and practical utility. Hardly less wonderful than the telescope, it is shown to carry equally indisputable proofs of skill, design, and infinite wisdom in creation. Books treating on subjects that do this deserve, despite a few faults, to be recommended to the public. The present volume is illustrated by no fewer than 500 en gravings. Pater families and youngsters, think of that ! five hundred well-executed engravings ifs some 440 pages, exhibiting minute natural objects of all sorts, and some of the most curious con struction. We cordially recommend the volume to our readers. Some Memoirs of John Hampden, his Party, and his Times. By Lord Nugent. Chapman and Hall. A third edition of these memoirs in which such brief omissions have been made as Lord Nugent contemplated, with a view, we are told, to its ap pearance in its present form. Nothing of the strictly biographical portion of the work has been touched, but where the historical description too much encumbered or overlaid it, this has been slightly compressed with advanta ge , we agree with the editor in thinking, to the general effect of the narrative. The most interesting feature, however, of the present edition is a brief memoir of the deceased lord. Our readers do not require to be told how-meritorious his lordship's memoirs of that illustrious patriot and model of English coun try gentlemen, Hampden, are. The general approval they have met with sufficiently demon strates that. It is a book to which E ng lishm e n s hould give an honourable place in their libraries, and refer to again and again. If it does not tell as much as could be desired of Hampden, it tells as much as was accessible, and without flattery, all redounding to his honour. Though not a great historian Lord Nugent was a faithful one, and the high integrity which characterised his life is equally observable in his work. His lordship was the second sou of the first Marquis of Buckingham, and was born at Kilmainham Hospital, Dublin, in 1789, during his father's viceroyalty. His title was derived from his mother, who, in childhood, was the playmate of. Goldsmith, and played on the simple-minded poet, and moralist the harmless practical joke attributed in the comedy of " She Stoops to Conquer" to Tony Lumpkin. Passing with some distinction through his undergraduate ship at Oxford he left it with the reputation, which he always maintained, of being a fair classical scholar. He subsequently passed two years with the army, and, on his return, received the Uni varsity degree of D.C.L., having previously de feated Lord Eldon and the Duke of Beaufort in a contest for the Chancellorship of Oxford. The war of liberation excited his intense sympathy, and he rushed into print to commemorate the wrongs of Spain and Portugal, and to express his cordial admiration for the genius and exploits of the hero of Torres Vedras, Badajoz, and Salamanca, who, it is gratifying to be assured, cordially reciprocated his kindly feeling. On the death of bis mother h . e merged the name of Lord George, Grenville in the title by which he was afterwards known. Shortly after Mr. Perceval's death he was returned for Aylesbury, and in the September of 1813 he was married to Anne Lucy, the second . 4daughter of Lieutenant-General the Hon. Vere Poulet, to whom he was devotedly attached. It is not our intention to particularise his subsequent career— in general terms we may say of it, it was that of a conscientious and high-spirited Liberal, even in times when to be so was to be stigmatised with the most opprobrious terms, and to incur real danger. With the struggles of the Catkolic body for eman cipation, he warmly sympathised—the oppressed slave found in him a ready and constant champion, a . ed Parliamentary Reform,. and the r emoval of t disabilties were greatly, promoted .by his strenuous exertions.' To the List he wtis thefriend of the oppressed, and the Hungarian exiles in this country found in him a liberal and steady friend. 3c,lford and Ride 'Any Buckg.hamsh. Clydesda' a.Tc. Col. Stour Vy.

A large meeting of the Derby party was held on ' turclay night, at Mr. Disraeli's residence, to consider how to take advantage of the present crisis. His Excellency the Ambassador of France and the Countess Walewska entertained a small circle at dinner at Albert-gate House on Saturday, aid among whom were his Excellency the Austrian Minister and the Countess Colloredo, Viscount and Vicountess Palmer ston, &e. Miss Burdett Coutts has been staying on a visit during the past week, at Oaklands, Hants, the residence of Lady Napier. On Friday Miss Coutts visited H.M.S. Duke of Wellington at Spithead, Admiral Sir Thomas Coch rane having placed his steam yacht at her disposal. The advices from Adelaide state the John Hullett bad sailed for London with 25,000 sovereigns and a small quantity'of gold, making a total of about 20,0001. It is stated to be not improbable that the Earl of Cardigan will be the new Inspactor-General of Cavalry THE Fox CLUB.—The first meeting of the Fox Club. this season took place on Saturday evening at Brooks's.

DEPARTURE OF THE AMERICAN MAILS.—LIVERPOOL, Saturday.—The United States mail steam-ship Atlantic, Captain James West, sailed from the Mersey this after noon for New :York, with the usual mails'for the United States, fifty passengers, and an average cargo of mer chandise on freight. Prior to her departure Messrs. Willmer and Smith, of Liverpool, placed a large number of copies of the morning pipers of this date, containing the important proceedings of last night in Parliament, on board, for the mess-rooms of the Weston Continent. In consequence partly of the pacific tone of the St. Petersburg advices and the delay in thoßalticlalockade question, the price of tallow bas declined during the week to 565. per cwt., being 3s. below the quotation of a few days back. The existing Ministerial crisis is causing injury and disappointment in trade, from its in terference not only with the expected. settlement of the course to be pursued with regard to the overland traffic in Russian produce, but also from its being likely to retard the bill for the alteration of the law of partner ship.

GORE'S NEW NOVEL " MAMMON ; 0; THE HARDSHIPS OF AN HEIRESS." —This book, • taken as a picture gallery of modern life, is a very remarkable per. forinance. Such keenness of observation,' brilliancy of wit, and careful study of human character, have seldom been exhibited in a novel. Two or three of the sketches, such as that of the young roue, of Crockford's dwindled into the worldly old beau, and the Nestor of political, sporting, and fashionable life, consulted by all parties, public and private, for the better regulation of their own ai,d the nation's affairs, and the retired Q.C., witty, wealthy, and wise, are masterly portraits.

Compared with-Monday last, the arrivals of beasts fresh up this morning from our own grazing districts were on the increase, yet the supply of that description of stock was by no means extensive. Its quality, however, was prime ; indeed, there were scarcely any inferior boasts in the market. The attendance of buyers was tolerably good, yet the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at Friday's de cline, in the quotations of 2d per Sibs. The highest figure was 4s 10d per Blbs. From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire we received 2,000 Scots and short horns ; from other parts of England, 600 of various breeds; and from Scotland, 300 horned and polled Scots. For the time of the year about an average, supply of sheep was on offer, in good condition. Ott the whole the mutton trade was firm, at prices fully equal to those ob tained on this day sennight. The primest old Downs were worth quite 5s per 81bs. Calves—The supply of which was very limited—moved off steadily, at full quotations, viz., from 4s 8d to 6s per Blbs.

His Parliamentary career, an interrupted one, was not brilliant, but he was respected by men of all opiions ; he' 'enjoyed the friendship of th e illustrious chiefs of the Whig party, and, according to Tim Bobns, "'he had more good taste than any man in the House.", He was the author of many eloquently-written Pali:1,010s, but Vs great work was that b e f ore us. .Takingiadvantage of some re pairs in the cliancel,of :Hampden Church,Jie ob tained thopermission of the Duke. of Buckingham for such possible identification of Hampden 's re mains as might clear up the question of the kind of hurt of which the illustrious patriot died ; and he, with others believed ; though he afterwards saw reason to change his opinion, that lie had gazed on Hanspden'S remains. Subsequently he had a monument erected by, 'subscription to ilanipden's meinory; and, next, we believe in these ,memeirs, testified the 'high veneration he entertained 'for it.

Porses and .Ijouncls.; a Practical Treatise on their Management. - 3iy Scrutator. Routledge aid, Cio. • • Who Scrutator is we do not pretend • to know, While willingly conceding to him the merit of hav ing written a very readable 'and instructive book, on a subject peculiarly interesting to a large and influential dais of 'readers. Evidently an' acute observer, ardently attaCheclto"the chase, and inte -r rested in all belonging toit, Scrutator has. given the world the benefit 'of a thirty 'years' g kperieilce; and must.be acknowledged ," a master". of the vena-, torial art. Every.detail of the stable and the kennel, seems familiar to him, and the instructions he lays -down for their-management commend' themselves. as being at once' practical and judicious. He ex presses surprise that, considering the demand for well-bred horses, and their high price, the breeding of this kind of stock, as a system, - has not been more genefally adopted by agriculturists, poi* is out mistakes. made in the selection of brood mares, and asser'fs thilimircluing inferior animals .is bad economy:. . He then proceeds to show what conditions are required to secure a good stock and a healthy and efficient stable. His remarks on ,the e breaking in and. working of colts especially deserve, attention. Tricks of dealers do not escape notice,, and valuable .hints are given to intending pur chasers. In short, all that can be expected in a popular and practioal treatise on the management of horses and hounds will, so far as . we can Judge,. be found in these pages, which are greatly eii liyened by original racy anecdotes, illustrative of the subject in hand. It may be interesting to add that the notion entertained by ,many that the in trodUction of railways would have suspended or materially diminished the use of horses employed for draught purposes has proved erroneous;: the number of cabs and omnibuses plying to_and from the railway stations having actually increased the demand ! In London, the increase, we are told, has been enormoug.• THE QUARTERLIES. The. Quarterly Review. No. CXCI. The pleasantest article imaginable has been con tributed to the new number of the old Quarterly by Mr. Thackeray. The fact of: the authorship was first intimated in that agreeable column of literary gossip Which appears week after week in our intelligent contemporary ) th ;Illustrated Lon don .News. But without the aid of any such pre liminary announcement it would be difficult for a discerning reader to mistake 'the hand from which the paper referred to, as the charm of. the current number of the Quarterly, has emanated. It is from first to last altogether delightful. Genial, graceful, quaint, cordial, wise, and humorous. Through it the resiewer notifies to the world his complete sp preciation of the fun and frolio stored up as abun dantly as plums in a Christmas pudding—slice upon slice—in John Leech's Pictures of Life and Character." The whole criticism, or rather pane gyric, constitutes a splendid and eminently well deserved tribute to the artist—facile princeps among the collaborateurs of our merry little old " Lexdon Chariiari," Mr. Punch. A gentleman (Mr. Punch we mean of course, not Mr. Leech) whilom as " raffish" as latterly he has become well-to-do and reputable—one in regard to whose transformation of late years from squalidness to respectability the analyst of Snobbism here ob serves—" Time was, if we remember Mr. P.'s his tory rightly, that he did not wear silk stockings nor _well-made clothes"--adding, with- rlelirinns comicality—" the little dorsal irregularity in his figure is almost an ornament now, so excellent a tailor has he !" From which reference to the dorsal irregularity now become an ornament we might almost be induced for a moment to conjec ture that (wonderful to relate) the tailors .f this pink and pattern of fine gentlemen—Mr. Chariyari Punch—are no other after all than Messrs. E. Moses and Son, of Minories reputation. Conjec turing thus much at least from the only-couplet we can acknowledge to have ever derived amusement from out of these abominable brochurettes slapped in the face of her Majesty's lieges through cab win-, dows at any hour, on any day, when emerging from the gateway of any railway terminus in the metropolis—the poetic spawn and literary fry issuing perpetually from the garrets of Seven Dials among effusions' to be afterwards vended across the counters of Holywell-street. Perhaps the chinking rhyme of this same couplet may, as with us, have once upon a time caught the eye, and afterwards unconsciously lurked in the memory of Michael Angelo Titmarsh : to wit—' "Our fit is such that if you ha►e a hump Your dress-coat will conceal the ugly bump." Howaver this may be, the biographer of Jeames is strictly in the right—" the little dorsal irregu larity" in the figure of Mr. Punch has long since, according to his own showing, become beautified mad tailorised hat° an ornament. Yet more, as Mr. Thackeray tells us delectably through the grave old pages pf the usually sedate and sometimes (as those can best relate who have smarted most severely under the leaded lash of its ponderous and inexorable criticism) the grim, old, buff-faced Tory Quarterly : "He (Mr. Punch) is combed, washed, neatly clothed, and perfectly presentable. He goes into the very best company ; he keeps a stud at Melton ' • he has a moor in Scotland ; he rides in the park ; has his stall in the opera ; is constantly dining out at clubs and in private society, and goes every night in the season to balls and parties, where you see the most beautiful women possible. He is welcomed among his new friends the great, though, like the good old English gentleman of the song, he does not for get the small ; he pats the heads of street boys and girls ; relishes the jokes of Jack the costermonger and Bob the dustman ; good-naturedly spies out Molly the cook flirting with policeman X, or Mary the nursemaid as she listens to the fascinating guardsman." Beyond all this, he, the said Mr. Satirist Panel', has his well-selected gallery of pictures, " Pictures of Life and Character," the Will Hogarth contri buting to which gallery is none other than the inimitable John Leech, whose astonishing deftness of pencil has been at length becomingly celebrated through an organ no less important than the Quar terly Review, by a critic no less distinguished than the Harry Fielding, and something better than the Harry Fielding of . his day—William, Makepeace Thackeray. In this most charming commentary on the " Pictures of Life and Character," selected from Mr. Punch's diversified collection, how exqui sitely does Mr. Thackeray discourse with , the very driest, and yet, at the same time, the most refresh ing humour imaginable, upon the mere eminent among the motley race of our genuine English caricaturists., Caricaturists; both "literary and pie torialnow a Iluibury, and now a Pierce'Egan— passing in farikaitic' sequeroe un der review—Gill ray,,and Woodwa, andi Rovaaridson, and so on to our own time, through the days when Planeus .George IV., when, Prince (tra nsparently enough, Regent) lia,d tbefasces born before him! In testimony of the general tone in which all this is penned by Mr. Thackeray, .we cannot refrain from gratifying both ourselves'and our readers by transferring into the columns of The Sun the subjoined tribute to our dear old friend George Cruikshank Among the veterans, the old pictorial' satirists,. Nye have Mentioned the name of one' humorous designer; who is still alive and at work. Did we not see, by his•own hand, his own portrait of his awn faurons face and whis kers in the Illustrated London,News the other day ? There. was a print in that paper of an assemblage of Teetotallers in Sadler's-wells Theatre, and wo straightway recognised the old Rom an hand—the old Roman's of the time of Plancus—Qeorge Cruikshank's. There were the old. bon nets and droll fades and shoed, and short trousers an d figures of MO, Sure enough. And there was George (who has taken to the Rater-doctrine, as all the world knows) handing some Teetotalleress over a plank to the table where the pledge was being administered. How often has George , drawn that • picture of Cruikshank ! Where haven't Ave Been it? - How fine it was facing the effigy of Mr. Ainsworth, in. Ainsworth's , Alagazine, when George illustrated that periodical. How grantl and severe he stands in that design in G. C.'s Omnibus, where he repie cents himself tonged like St. Dunstan, and tweaking a wretch of a publisher by the nose !

AUSTRIA AND THE CONFEDERATION. The followino• is a translation of the secret de spatch of the Austrian Government to the States of the German Confederation. It is dated Jan. 14 :-- (Confidential.) _ _ " VIENNA, Jan. 14.—Vfe may still consider the ad hesion of Prussia to the alliance concluded by the treaty of the 2d of December as a probable eventuality, and for its part thelmperial Government will always consider it a duty to do everthing in its power to , put an end (one way or another) to the differences which, to its regret, unhappily now exist between the two grgai Gorman Powers. • • " If the hope of seeing Prussia adhere to the alliance should be realised, tho,complete and sincere concurrence of the two Powers in their quality of German Federal Powers would thereby be assured.' " Experience, however, bids us extend our provisions to the case that Prussia should attempt longer to per sist in her policy of indecision, and should even attempt to act at Frankfort in a manner to thwart our proposi tions upon the necessity 'of the Confederation being pre pared for war. " In such case, the Imperial Government would only the more resolutely desire to pursue, with the support of the other German Governments, the path traced by the Federal Constitution as regards the manner in which this great question ought to be considered, and it would regard itself as neglecting ono of the most sacred duties of its mission in Germany if it did not endeavour above all things to attain that the Confederation should take constitutional resolutions , and if, for its own part, it was not perfectly ready to take upon itself the conse quences of these resolutions. • , " Therefore at a moment when our confederates will have to decide upon their participation in events per haps decisive for the destinies of Germany, we cannot hesitate in putting the question to them, confidentially, as to how they will act in the case of being resolied to go in accordance with us, should a conformable resolu tioo not be obtained in the Federal Assembly. " We do not hesitate openly to ask our Confederates if, in that case, they will grant sufficient confidence to Austria to join her destinies • and if, in case all our endeavours to obtain a solid an d sure peace should fail, Austria may, in the most extreme eventuality, equally count upon their active co-operation. "The Imperial Court would, in such case, give the most solemn assurances to guarantee their territorial pos sessions and position against every eventuality, and, moreover, to grant them their shares of advantages 1:e -suiting from the war in proportion to the, number of troops employed. In exchange, Austria must put tho condition that a body of tr oo p s , to be deteimined dPob, should be at once made ready for service, and claim that -- [here comes the name of the Government of the State addressed] shall express to his Majesty the Empe ror the confidence of placing, in case of appeal, the direction of their contingent under the superior command of his Imperial Majesty. "We count upon a frank and candid reply, and it will give us great satisfaction to find that it ref ponds to our wish, as that will have the effect of throwing light upon our relations with the German Governments, and of consolidating them especially with - '(name ' of State), providing them with all the guarantees which the necessities of this grave epoch den - land.
