CORN EXCHANGE• The leading country markets, held on Saturday, were moderately supplied with wheat, and the trade ruled firm, at fully previous, to, in some instances, slightly enhanced rates. Barley was dull, and prices had a downward ten dency, Oats, beans, peas, and flour fully supported pre vious currencies. Owing to enormous importations of produce, the French markets continuo heavy, at depressed quotations. Large shipments of wheat and flour are still being made from New York. Up to our market, last week, the arrivals of English grain were very moderate. From abroad we received 15,509 quarters of wheat, 5786 barley, 19,'164 oats, 1,928 beans, 50 tares, 5,470 linseed, 3,154 rapeseed, 180 maize, 270 seeds, 6,274 sacks and 12,808 barrels of flour. Fresh up to this morning's market the arrival of Eng lish wheat were very small. The quality of the samples, however, was fine. The demand, both for red and white qua'ities, was by no means active; neverthless, last Mon day's currency was well maintained, and nearly a total clearance was effected at the close of the market. The show of samples of foreign wheat was moderately extensive. For all descriptions the trade ruled firm, and the quotations current this day se'nnight were fully sup ported. In floating cargoes of grain a fair business was trans acted, and prices ruled firm. The finest malting barley sold steadily at fully previous rates; but medium and inferior parcels were a slow sale on former times. Grinding and distilling sorts were not in active request, yet no change took place in the value, com pared with Monday last. Fine new malt moved off steadily at fell prices ; other. wise, the malt trade was in a sluggish state at late rates. In oats sales progressed steadily, and no quotable alters• tion was observed to have taken place in the currencies o of this day se'nnight. Very few beans were on offer, and prices were fully main. tained. Peas were scarce, and quite as dear as last week. A fair average business was passing in flour, an the quo. ,ations ruled firm.

With home-fed beasts we were fairly supplied, and there was a good arrival from Ireland. The attendance of buyers was tolerably numerous, and all good and fine breeds moved off steadily, at, in some instances, an advance in the quotations, compared with Monday last, of 2d per Blbs, the primest Scots and crosses having realised 5s 2d per 81b ; otherwise the beef trade was in a sluggish state, on former terms. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received about 2,500 shorthorns, &c. ; from other parts of England, 500 various breeds; from Scotland, 80 scots and crosses ; and from Ireland 830 oxen and heifers. There was rather a limited show of home-bred sheep, chiefly in middling condition. For all prime breeds the demand ruled steady, at very full prices —the best old Downs having realised 5s 8d per 81bs, whilst other breeds moved off slowly, at quite last week's currency. Calves—the supply of which was only moderate—were in good request, at very full prices, viz., from 4s 4d to 5s 4d per 81b. For pigs the demand ruled steady, and late rates were well supported.

THE MURDER OF A GAMEKEEPER AT 0 TLEY.— The inquest on the body of William Smith, the unfortunate gamekeeper, lately in the employment of Mr. Timothy Horsfall, near Otley, who was shot by a poacher on Tues day morning last, as detailed in our columns, was held on Friday,"and a verdict of " Wilful Murder" against James "Waller, the poacher, was returned. The jury suggested the offer of a reward for the apprehension of the murderer. A MAN AND Two HORSES DROWNED.-011 Tuesday night a young man named Abraham Walker, ser vant of Mr. Thomas Layfield, farmer, Hartwith, was drowned in the River Nidd, and also two horses belonging to his master. He was returning from Dorley corn mills, and his nearest way home was to cross the river at a wath. It bein g dark he was not aware that the river had swollen with the heavy rains that had fallen during the day, and it is supposed that when he was - crossing the wath the cart wheels stuck fast against some stone steps. Calling for help, and being close to Mr. Layfield's house, another ser vant went to assist him, but after yoking his horse he found they were all going down the river, and he therefore jumped off his horse into the water, and caught hold of the bough of a tree. The other man (Walker) and the two horses were carried down the stream, The body of Walker had not been found on Wednesday. How THE WORLD TREATS DISCOVERERS.— Probably Lord Byron, smarting under the attacks of his adversaries, really thought that all England was furiously raging against him ; but the sale of his works, and the in fluence of his genius on contemporaries, suffice to keep us from such an error. So far from its being true that the world treats great men with injustice and ingratitude, wit are of opinion that, on the whole, justice is meted out, and gratitude is freely given, whenever it can reasonably be ex pected to exist. This last clause is added, because it is surely preposterous to expect that a public, which feels no benefit, should be grateful for that benefit which escapes its appre ciation. The profound thinker may detect a truth which will hereafter benefit the human race ; but if his contemporaries cannot see that truth, cannot realise the oenefit, how should they be grateful for it ? The truth will be seen by a chosen few ; they will be grateful for it; posterity will be grateful when posterity has grown to fuller vision ; but so long as the truth remains unappreciated, either through the igno rance of the publie, or the imperfect presentation to the public which the thinker has given of his truth, there must neeessarily be neglect, But this, if a reproach against the intelligence, is none against the gratitude of the public. = Blackwood's Magazine. SlAM.—There is one peculiar feature which iso lates it from every other empire of the earth ; Siam has no cities I No strong-built, well-fortified, elegantly-con structed towns and cities, with suburbs and suburban villas. The pagan in liindostan rivalled in the architecture of hie temple the most splendid efforts of Greece in her sunniest days. The Taj Mahal was something exquisite in the con ception of the brain that first conceived its existence in embryo. China and Japan have noble specimens also of architectural beauty, and all Christendom and the Ottoman Empire have something to show in the shape of what con stitutes a city. The tent of the Arab of the desert and the floating-house of the Siamese are very much assimilated. Now they are swallowed up in the vortex of some town or city constituting an item either central or suburban. Now they are isolated and lonesome. In fact, the Siamese may be called the Bedouins of the river. Whilst the Arab's faith clings tightly to his mare, on whose back he may fleetly traverse the sandy wastes pursuing or pursued, the Siamese relies upon the excellence and swiftness of his canoe, which constitutes his all in all, whether for pleasure or for flight, or for the remunerative services it renders him in fishing or in the conveyance and vending of the produce of the soil. As in the desert we may encounter the solitary tent of an Arab, his spear stuck into the ground and his well-beloved mare fastened thereto, so, in desolate portions of the Menam are to be encountered single floating houses with the indispensable canoe chained to the front, and here: in fishing or some other occupation, the inhabitants pass the time in undisturbed tranquillity. The capital of Siam. Bangkok, is gothing more nor less than a congregation of wooden huts or cabins floating upon strongly constructed bamboo rafts, any score or two of which may at any given moment be loosed from their moorings and shift the scene of their future homes either farther up or lower down the river, thus weakening the city in the number of its houses and inhabitants. Or else, as is not unoften the case, some thousand-ton ship or junk of huge proportions swings sud denly to the tide, carrying away a small colony of houses, which drift away rapidly, to the astonishment and terror of the yelling inmates. With the exception of a few palaces and watts, and a few monumental pillars and European re sidences, Bangkok has nothing subs t a ntial about it, and so me unusual floodtides might any n i g ht swee p away th e g reater mass of houses and population , and leave the astonished inmates of the more solid fabrics on terra firma positively alone in their glory.—Colburn's New Monthly Magazine. A gentleman collected a number of young people around him, and began to teach them what was meant by faith; and, to make it more clear, the gentleman had pro vided himself with an egg and a cup ; and, after talking for a long time, he said to the children, "Look at me. What is this in my hand ?" "An egg, sir," was the reply. 1 " What is this ?" he said, holding up the cup. " A cup, sir," all cried out. "You see the egg, do you not ?" " Yes, sir." He then placed the cup over the egg. "Do you see it now ?" "No, sir." "But you believe it to be there, although you do not see it. You believe it without :seeing it, do you not f" " Yes, sir," " Very good, very good. Now, my good children, tell me what faith is P" "If you please, sir," they cried, " it is an egg under a tea cup."—The Quiver.

The quotations annexed on the Liverpool Cup only show that towards the close such prices were taken and offered as are affixed to the different horses, but cannot convey an idea of the business done, for with the exception of Lady Ripon and Russley, who remained nearly stationary, the price of everything varied with every quarter of an hour. The Prince of Denmark appeared very firm at 10 to 1 taken, then receded to 100 to 6 (offered), and to a small amount 20 to 1 was laid. Petra went to 25 to 1 (offered), then no higher price than 100 to 6 could be obtained. Millionaire came with a rush to 15 to 1 (taken), then 25 to 1 (offered), and finished as near as we could make out at 20 to 1 (offered). The 50 to 1 Wildman of yesterday finished at 14 to 1 taken.

The Company of Fishmongers dined together on S ttur day night—the Prime Warden in the chair. ;The speeches of the members were of the usual character, and would hardly have deserved notice but for the circumstance tbat among the guests of tho evening were the Hoa. Dudley Mann and the Hon. W. L. Yancey, the plenipotentiaries of the Confederate States .1 America. Their health was proposed by the Prim , I .74iden, and Mr. Yancey replied. . _ Mr. YANCEY said—Li :on the part of Americans I sin cerely respond to the sent in.ent just expressed by the Prime Warden for the restoration of peace in America, Such a wish proclaimed by a company of intelligent Englishmen must kindle a corresponding spirit in the bosom of every enlightened and impartial American. The name of American no longer represents a united people. There exists now two American nationalities—the Confederates and the Federal Americans. I—as you may, perhaps, be aware—am a Con federate, or—as the Federal American, unmindful of the character of our common forefathers, disdainfully terms me, a rebel. But the justice and the sense of right of this great government, promptly coincided in by France, and Spain, speedily wiped out that stigma from our brows, and my countrymen are acknowledged here, at least, to be bellige rents. Though indebted to an enlarged and enlightened view of the public law, and not to the mere grace or favour of England for this acknowledgment of our unquestionable rights and lotus standi, I must freely express here to-night that deep sense of thankfulness, which I am sure all my countrymen feel, for its early public avowal—" Vie dat qui silo dat." (Prolonged cheers.) From no other power could it have come so gracefully. In this—" the old country"— the principle of self-government is recognised and prat • tised, however blended with the prerogative of the Crown and the privileges of the aristocracy. To your institutions Americans are indebted for the chief of those vital prin ciples which have caused them to style their republic— " The land of the fr e And the home of the oppressed." Such invaluable rights as the old English writ of habeas corpus, of a speedy trial by jury, of freedom of speech and freedom of the press, are the main pillars of American con stitutional liberty ; and I am both happy and proud to say are observed at least throughout the Confederate American states as vital and practical rights, even during their stern struggles to preserve their "national life." (Hear, and cheers.) I feel how unbecoming it would be in me to intrude upon such an occasion as the present any merely partisan views of the causes which have broken up the late Federal Union. No matter what they may have been, one thing is clear and that is that the contest now going on is upon the part of the people of the Confederate states for the right to govern themselves and to resist subjugation by the North. (Hear, hear.) They occupy a territory as large as England, France, Spain, and Austria together—they are ten millions in number—they are chiefly producers of important raw materials, and buyers of every species of manufactured goods. Their pursuits, soil, climate, and production, are totally different from those of the North. They think it their interest to buy where they can buy cheapest and to sell where they can sell dearest. In all this the North differs totoccelo from ahem, and now makes war upon us to enforce the supremacy of their mistaken ideas and selfish interests. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) In defence of their liberties and sovereign independence the Confederate states and people are united and resolute. They are invaded by a power numbering 20,000,000 ; yet fur eight months has the Confederate Government successfully resisted—aye, re pelled—that invasion along a military frontier of 1,000 miles. Though cut off by blockade from all foreign trade, their internal resources have been adequate to the equipment and maintenance in the field of an army of over 250,000 troops. Can all this be, and yet these 6,000,000 of whites be divided ? The idea is preposterous. So much has been said about our efforts to obtain foreign intervention that I may be allowed to declare emphatically that the Confederate States have neither sought nor desired it. They can maintain their in .o f o .A s o u to their d r e e c s o i r g e - . n p i e t n i o d n e nbcye theintact w b e y r s t h o e f i t r b o o w w n n s r ti l d e , n t g b t a h t They are a peopl e, a nation, exhibiting elements of power which few states of the world possess. But they have no reason to complain, nor do they feel aggrieved, because these great powers see fit for a season to defer their formal recog theirthatb such action by recog nition and reception into the family of nations. How ever they may differ with them as to the period when ree,ognition is should take a place,question o the y fully t bedetermined those countries each for itself and with reference toits own interests and vows of publi c policy. Other nations having trading relations with us have quite as much interest to send ministers and consuls to us as we have to send such representatives to them. (Hear, hear.) Why then, shall there not be a peace ? Simply because the North in its pride will not admit that to be a fact—a fait accompli— which Old England, followed by the first powers of Europe, has recognised, and which the Confederate government and armies have repeatedly demonstrated to be a stern and bloody fact—the fact that we are a belligerent power. There can be no basis for negotiations, or for peace proposals or consultations so long as the Confederates are deemed to be and are treated as rebels. (Hear.) But when our ad versary shall become sufficiently calm to treat us as a belli gerent power, the morning of peace will dawn in the hori zon. When that hour shall arrive I think I may say the Confederate Government will be inflexible upon one point ' only—its honour and its independence. For the gre,t a in: Iterest of peace and humanity it will y ield much_an!h _tel; merely material or of secondary importance. (Mr. 1 c sat down amid loud and continued cheeriAg.) • BAROMETER INDICATORS. At the last meeting of the National Lifeboat Institution, on Thursday last, the following communication was read from Captain Washington, R.N , F.R. S., hydrographer of the Admiralty, on Barometer Indicators, three of which the institution, in connection with its President, the Duke of Northumberland, and the Meteorological Society, has placed on the Northumberland coast : " London, Nov, 5. have taken advantage of a visit to Notthuniber land to inspect the lifeboat stations at Boulmer and Ali' mouth, and to examine the barometers and barometer indi cators at these two stations and at Amble. " The committee will be gratified to learn that on each occasion his Grace, our President, accompanied see, and evinced the same unfailing personal interest in this good cause that he has always shown. " I have some few remarks to make on the lifeboats, which may form the subject of a future letter ; for the pre sent I will confine myself to the barometers and barometer indicators, as I think it possible that these latter instru ments may be rendered useful to a greater degree, perhaps, thin any of us hitherto ha 3 ventured to anticipate. "And first I would tender my hearty congratulations to the committee on the admirable way in which the baro meters so liberally placed by our President at the different stations on the coast of Northumberland aro already work ing. The fishermen, lam told, take to them most kindly, and, notwithstanding the favourable appearance of tho morning, if the barometer has fallen much, they accept the warning, and remain on shore. lam assured that in all pro bability much property, and possibly life, has been saved by attending to those faithful monitors. Mr. Sopwith, presi dent of the Meteorological Society, and Mr. Glaisher, of the Royal Observatory, are entitled to the hearty thanks of the Lifeboat Institution for the trouble they have taken in setting them up along the coast. " With respect to the barometer indicators, I am happy to report that they are very popular, which is the first step towards their becoming useful. "At Boulmer the circular, or dial indicator, is placed high up against the sea front of the lifeboat coxswain s house. Its face is 8 feet in diameter and 24 feet in circum ference, and it shows boldly at a good distance. Each inch of the scale being magnified 48 times, and the pointers or hands being 4 feet long, it may be read as yon gallop along the beach. Coasting vessels have reported that they have distinguished it with a glass at two miles out in the offing. "At Alnmouth the single-faced upright indicator is placed against the gable end of the Coastguard houses front ng the sea. The scale here is five feet to the inch, or magnified 60 times, yet owing to its narrow face, it is not nearly so easily made out as the dial. I have desired it to be raised 12 feet higher, and the pointers to be made to project as far outside the scale as they do within it, which will render them more visible. "At Amble the four-faced, or Janus indicator (if the term may be permitted), placed on an isolated hillock, about 50 feet above the level of the sea, near the harbour, stands proudly, and, being surmounted by a agstaff, is a promi nent and a picturesque object as seen from every quarter. It se happens here that the harbour where vessels moor and the sea where fishing-boats ply their calling lie in differen t directions, and a single faced indicator would not be suffi cient fur both. The scale at Amble is 21 feet to the inch, or magnified 30 times; this is hardly enough, and in all future cases I would recommend nothing less than five feet, or, better, six feet to the inch. " The Coastguard, as usual, have stood the friends of the National Lifeboat Institution in working the indicator at Alnmouth, so also Mr. Layton, shipbuilder at Amble, and Stephenson, the fisherman, at Boulmer ; and the committee are much indebted to Mr. Buddle, of Alnxvick, for the in telligence he has shown in preparing and placing the instru ments. " At none of the stations had the men in charge any diagrams for registering daily the barometric curve, nor the instructions for their use, as at the stations of the Lifeboa Institution. Immediately on the receipt of the three sets so promptly sent me down from the institution I went over to the coast, and, although it was my last day in the country, I had time to explain their use and trace the curve for them for the last few days, and before I left had the gratification to see a party of sailors and fishermen crowd ing round the barometer windows and pointing out to each other the zigzag track, or, as they termed it, the 'traverse sailing course' of the weather. The dark line on the diagram showing the sudden fall of an inch on the 11th of October last, and the word Storm' printed under it in strong black letters, evidently made a serious impression on them as to the utility a barometer might prove to them in their own special calling. " Having now seen all the three indicators working, and heard the opinions of fishermen and seafaring men on the coast, I think I may venture to assure the committee that the object of the National Lifeboat Institution, in placing these three specimens of different shapes at these fishing stations in juxtaposition, has been attained, and that in the generality of cases the dial indicator will carry the day. There may be places, such as Amble, where two or three, or even four, faces are required; and then the upright or Janus form is the,more suitable ; but, as an easily read and eco nomical instrument, I recommend the dial above all. It should, however, be 12 feet in diameter, and each pointer 6 feet long ; it would then be visible far and wide, and the fisherman, lying in his boat in the bay or tithing in the offing, s‘ ould be able to distinguish it without ;riving occa sion to come to the shore to learn the state of the weather. " One step more is wanting. The dial should be illumi nated by night. And why not ? If the illuminated dial of the Westminster clock is the first object to greet the tra vellerarriving in London by the South-Western Railway by night, why should not a similarly illuminated dial convey to the fisherman or passing coaster the intelligence he is de sirous to learn ? Such, I venture to predict, sill before long be the case. Public-spirited fishing ports such as Ramsgate, Hastings, or Penzance, with its numerous pil chard boats, will surely adopt it; and also on the eastern and northern coasts of Great Britain, as at Yarmouth, Scarborough, Peterhead, and Wick, in Caithness, which latter port, in the herring season, sends to sea over 900 boats, manned by 4,000 hardy fishermen, every night for three months in the year. These men are compelled to hover off the coast in pursuit of their calling, exposed to the pro verbially sudden North Sea gales. Why should not they have a friendly monitor in the shape of an illuminated barometer indicator, to tell them whether they may remain safely at sea, or should seek shelter against the ooming storm P "Again most cordially congratulating the committee on the successful result of the endeavours of the institution, " I am, Sir, "JOHN WASHINGTON." The Plenipotentiaries of the Confederate States, viz., the Hon. Dudley Mann and the Hon. W. L. Yancy, dined with the Fishmongers' Company on Saturday evenin e „, His Excellency the Russian Ambassador arrived at Chesham House on Saturday from visiting her Majesty at 'Windsor Castle. His excellency will give a grand enter tainment to their Imperial Highnesses the Grand Duke and Duchess Constantine on Tuesday next at Chesham House. There is a select circle invited to meet their Impe rial Highnesses. The Duchesss of Wellington arrived at Apsley House on Saturday from Windsor Castle. Her grace leaves town to day to Join the duke at his shooting -quarters in Norfolk. FOLKESTONE WiTs.—All sorts of curious stories are still told to illustrate the perfect guilelessness and crass ignorance of the ancient Folkestoners. Most of these tales are, of course, mere fictions and pleasant conceits of their enemies. The amusing ballad of the "Folkestone Fiery Serpent" humorous y recounts how the sagest municipal functionaries of the place, startled by the unwonted appari tion of a fine large peacock—a genus never before seen within their borders—took counsel together, before sallying forth to encounter it, as to how they could best capture or slay the terrible monster, which could not have struck greater terror into their hearts if it had been " Gorgon, or hydra, or chimera dire." This simple-minded, stay-at home race, were afflic'ed with none of your modern furore for travel. Any adventurous member of their body who had made a pilgrimage of fifteen miles to Canterbury was ever afterwards looked upon as an oracle of wisdom and knowledge, and in the local vocabu lary was dubbed "a foreigner,' by reason of his distant peregrinations. The same incurious people are said on cue occasion, when threatened with a visitation of small-pox, to have spread their fishing-nets over the town to keep out the malady—or at all events enablo them to catch it, and then drown it in the sea. Again, a parochial conclave, after grave debate, once issued a solemn order for having the parish church " white -washed blue," and then removed to a better site by pushing it isideways with men's shoulders.. But there is no end of the ridiculous stories which have been circulated at the expense of the Folkestoners—a plain honest people, like most other Kentish men, albeit now over.." bright" in intellect ; and it is difficult to conceive why they should have been specially singled out to be the butt of the local satirists. The malignant ingenuity with which they have been assailed may be judged of from the fact that a willing, centuries ago, discovered that the letters of which the word Folkestone is composed will, when trans posed, form the anagram of " Kent fools." Years have since then rolled on ; Time—the Avenger—bids fair to tar' the laugh against the scoffing rivals of the erst-despised n p er r i s e ed township.
