MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'ilLoch. The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed with a firm aspect, but without any change in prices from those current on Friday. The sales ►ere 12,000 bales, 2,000 of which were taken for export, and 3,500 on speculation ; comprising 90 Pernam and Marauham, at 70. ; 100 Bahia, at 64d. ; 400 Egyptian, at 6kd. to Id. ; 1,500 Surat, at 4d. to sd. per lb. The Railway Share Market was firm, with but little business doing. Advices from the silk markets on the continent report no actual change in the prices of the raw material, but from the disinclination on the part of manufacturers to purchase, at their present high rates, beyond what their necessities require, the prices are almost nominal, and present a down• ward tendency. At Avignon, in Trance, Ist quality of threads was quoted at 109 to 110 per kilogramme, and unspun silk 86 to 94 fr. At Valencia there was no alteration in prices, but sellers were demanding, with great tenacity, the advanced quotations. The last market at Aubenas was very quiet, and a few bales of Italian silk were disposed of at 100 to 108 fr. per kilo. At Zurich the manufacturers were buying a little more freely, and had watched with anxiety the changes in the market at the close of the :last month. Meanwhile the accounts from Italy state that a reaction in the state o f the markets had commenced at Turin on the .20th inst. It is the general opinion there that this scarcity of silk will, to a certain extent, prevent any decline in prices, but the diminished supply of money, caused by the restrictive measures of the bankS, would tend to reduce the high prices. Added to this, letters have been received from America announcing the sale of silks in that mar ket mach below their value, and the advices from other markets stating that the manufacturers have stopped work, while the orders were daily diminish ing. f:These circumstances have influenced the raerchants, and they have agreed to lower their prices from sf. to 10f. per kilo. on the rates of the previous month. Later intelligence has been received from Ame rica, per steamer Persia, which has arrived with about 312,719/. in specie. The Money Market at New York was rather easier, the banks having made a slight pause in their restrictive policy. No change is reported in the general state of trade, and the imports continued much in excess of the exports., During the week ending the 12th inst. the shipments of merchandise, including specie, Were valued at 3,472,8771. On S atur€lay Mr. Harding, of the firm of Har ding and Pullein, accountants, was appointed special manager of the affairs of the Royal British Bank, under the Winding-up Act. Thera is an active demand for money in all directions, and a general impression prevails that the Ba - uk rate of discount will be raised next Thursday. On the Continent the pressure is very severe, and great inconvenience is felt among the mercantile community, and fear is expressed that money will become still tighter and trade more de pressed, but at the same time there appears to be much 11 nnecessary alarm as to the future course of affairs. Then) is a fluctuating market for the English 10 4 =174,, and symptoms of much feebleness are exhi bited. After the commencement of business there was a drop in prices of about -a per cent. ; but the market„ though still depressed, has since slightly rallied. Among the many causes now operating adverse ply on the market, the continued decline in the value of the Funds at Paris is exercising a decided influence, and the fall this morning has been chiefly attributed to that circumstance. In addition to this the unsettled aspect of the Money Market is also prejudicial to values. Consols have been de alt in at these prices :—for money 921 92f I s and 92i ; for account, 93, 92i t, 92f. They are now 921 I, and 92t respectively. Exchequer Bills have descended as low as 9s. to 12s. premium, and the Bonds are 991. East India Stock is 229. The Foreign Market is also very heavy.

The East Indian and Canadian are also heavy. nines and Banking Shares rule dull, and the Col onial are depressed. Canada Land are 106, bein g 21. to 41. lower.

The first or second floor could be fitted up for the accommo dation of readers, and thrown open every evening, say from 0 to 10. At present, books could be obtained by day in the usual manner ; but ultimately duplicate cata logues might be lodged in the supplemental reading. room. The difficulty for those who do not attend in the day might in the meanwhile be diminished if one of the Museuim attendants were permitted, for a small fee, to receive from the evening readers orders to seek the books -needed. The risk of fire would then be limited to the fen' volumes sent over to the night reading-room. " &MEAT TTILES."—NOTICE.—Mr. E. T.

CITY SHERIFP COURT. (Before Mr. Prendergast, Q.C.) KELLY V. THE GENERAL STEAM 17AVIGATION COMPANY- IMPORTANT TO RXCURSIONISTR. This was an action to recover damages for breach of contract under the following circumstances : It appeared that on the 17th August last plaintiff took a ticket for an excursion to M3,rgate and back by the Eagle, one of the company's boats. They reached Mar gate at 3 o'clock, and went ashcre for a short time and returned, when the vessel, on putting out from the harbour, ran aground, and the passengers had to be put on shore again in small boats, and a notice was put up that the Eagle would leave for London at 10 o'clock at night. Plaintiff, however, refused to wait, and took a ticket by the railway, as he was obliged to be at the Tames office at half-past four in the morning, being the manager of a news-agent at the West-end. He attributed the detention to the Eagle not going in to the jetty instead of the stone pier ; but this, he understood, was according to signal by the harbour-master. His Honour said that in that case the company were not liable, but the harbour-master, if any one. The captains were required by the act of Parliament to obey the harbour-master. The plaintiff asked whether he could bring an action against that officer ? There was negligence somewhere. His Honour did not know what course could be taken. There might have been no fault on the part of the har bour-master ; but these little disappointments were to be expected where the " wind and the waves" were con cerned. On ono occasion he was 37 or 38 hours coming up, instead of 7 or 8, as he expected, but he never dreamt of bringing an action. Plaintiff—Probably not, sir. It is different with me, working hard days and wishing for relaxation one day in the week, and I might have enjoyed it but for the neglect or carelessness of the company or their people. His Honour—Well, show me that. Plaintiff—They ought to have gone to the jetty. His Honour—Have you any witnesses Pl.i.tif£ N., I His Honour —Then I do not think you have made out a case. You must be nonsuited. Nonsuited accordingly. POLICE 1 INTELLIGENCE.— (This Day.) MARLBOROUGH-STREET. AN IMPUDENT THlEL—Brilliant Spencer Freeman, a wide-awake looking young fellow, with a wooden leg, was charged before Mr. Beaden, with stealing four sove reigns, belonging to Adolphe Drtim, waiter at the Hotel Provence, Leicester-square. It appeared that the prosecutor, on Saturday night, was much pressed for change, and in the absence of the regular porter of the establishment he gave the prisoner, whom he had known for some time, four sovereigns to get changed for silver. The prisoner, however, absconded, and prosecutor saw no more of him till the previous night, when he gave him in charge. Two former convictions having been proved against the prisoner, the latter said in both those cases it was proved that he was a servant at the time the theft was committed, but in this instance he volunteered his ser vices to the prosecutor. Mr. Beadon remanded the prisoner for a week. A MisosiEvous FREAL—Richard Southwell and Wm. Miletead, two decent looking lads, were charged with breaking a square of plate glass, value 101., the pro perty of Mr. James Wilder Adams, proprietor of the Hope dining-rooms, No. 41, Haymarket. Mr. Adams stated that on Sunday afternoon he was in his parlour, where some gentlemen were did' ing, when he heard a tremendous crash, followed by a shower of pieces of glass. He immediately went into the front room, and found a large square of plate glass, value 101., completely smashed. He went outside to discover the authors of the mischief, when he caught the two prisoners in the act of throwing stones at an old man. He directly collared them, when they ad mitted that one of the stones which they threw missed its mark, and went through his window. Mr. Adams added that he had seen the parents of the lads, and they had promised to make some arrangements to pay him for the damage he had sustained. He did not wish to be hard with them, and would get the window replaced as cheap as he could. Mr. Beadon said the boys deserved a pretty good flogging to deter them from throwing such dangerous missiles in future ; and they ought to be thankful to Mr. Adams for not pre , sing the case, for if he bad he (Mr. Beadon) would most assuredly have severely punished them. He should now adjourn the case for a month to see how they fulfilled their contract. MARK-LANE. In answer to a not very courteous communication from an Islington correspondent, impugning the accuracy of our Corn Exchange article on Monday last, we this day insert the circulars of three of the leading corn fac tors, which, it will be seen, fully confirm the accuracy of our statement, which was so strongly denied by the writer from Islington. (From The Sun of Sept. 22.) The demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was very much less active than on Monday last. In prices, however, compared with that day, very little change took place. At the close of business inferior wheats were certainly the turn in favour of buyers. From the Circular of Messrs. Giles, Son, and Barker, Corn Factors ) The best selected samples made about last Monday's prices, but the greater part of the supply was unsold at the clove of the market. (From the Circular of Messrs. Coventry, Sheppard, and Co., Corn Factors.) The best samples were taken by millers at the prices of this day week ; but inferior descriptions were lower, and sold at irregular prices. (From the Circular of Messrs. John Ashlin and Sons, Corn Tactors.) The finest runs were taken by the millers at about the prices of this day se'nnight. The secondary qualities were offered at some reduction, but they remained over unsold up to the time we write. MARKET NEWS.—(rbis Day.) tion. For all kinds the demand is in a sluggish state. Picked samples may be quoted at 85s to 90s; other kinds, 70s to 80s per ton. WOOL. English wool continues in good request, and prices aro well supported. Foreign and colonial parcels move off slowly, at late rates. Last week's imports were 10 bags from Jamaica, 155 bales from Mogadore, 103 from Ant werp, 1,071 from Sydney, 9 from Hambro% 167 from the Cape, and 6 from Ostend. The followin are the current rates of English wool Down tegs g , is 3d to is 4d ; Down ewes, ls 2d to is 3id ; half-bred hogs, is 2d to is 3 ; Kent fleeces, is 2d to is 3d ; Leicester do., ls ld to ls 3d ; combing skin, ls to blanket wool, 9d to is ld ; and flannel wool, ls to is 5d per lb.

EXTENBITS ROBBERY BY A CONFIDENTIAL SERVANT. — William ltPce, a man about 35 years of age, was brought before Mr. Yardley, charged with robbing his employers Mr. Binns, solicitor, stated the case for the prosecu- tion. The prisoner had been for five years in the employ of Messrs. Hazeltine and Matte, omnibus, carriage, and van manufacturers, in Lant-street, Southwark, and it was his business among other duties to supply wheels to the customers of the firm. The greatest confidence was placed in the prisoner, who had the opportunity of rob bing his employers to a large extent if he thought proper, and it was found he had done so, for it had been recently ascertained that he had disposed of wheels to the amount of 251. or 261. without the knowledge or consent of his employers, and had appropriated the money to his own use. A man named Patrick M'Cabe, of Devonport.street, Commercial road East, it had to been co ncerned in receiving the property, knowing be stolen, and he had absconded. Mr. J. C. Matte, one of the prosecutors, said it wAs the. duty of the pt-soner to change wheels at various places where the firm ha.fl contracts. A search warrant was recently obtained, M'Cabe's premises were searched, and five wheels and fastenings btgonging to him and his partner were found there. A set o; wheels were found on the van of a person named Riley, at:d another set on Mr. Dawes' cart. They all belonged to the firm, and had not been sold by them. The value of the stolen wheels already discovered was 251. or 261. The prisoner was remanded till Wednesday.

In prices, however, no material change took place. Barley mirranail4ll- Most other article■ ruled about stationary. Wheat is still selling at a comparatively high range in nearly the whole of the continental markets. From America the shipments of produce to this country continue on a liberal scale. Very moderate supplies of English grail were received up to our markets last week. The imports from abroad were 26,899 quarters of wheat, 14,175 barley, 6,301 oats, 730 peas, 1,481 linseed, 35 rapeseed, 70 mustard seed, 2,250 sundry seeds, and 11,748 barrels of flour. The quantity of wheat received fresh up to oar market to-day, both from Essex and Kent, was again very mode rate, and the condition of most of the samples was compa ratively inferior. The attendance of millers was not to say extensive, yet factors were very firm, and the whole of the best-conditioned wheats were taken off at prices fully equal to those realised on Monday last. Middling and in ferior parcels were less active ; nevertheless the quotations were supported, with the exception of a few low Kentish samples, which changed hands on rather lower terms. There was a slight increase in the show of foreign wheat, yet there was no disposition shown on the part of importers to give way. The actual sales were not extensive, yet late rates were well supported. Floating cargoes sold at full quotations. The supply of English barley was limited—of foreign, good. Fine samples sold steadily at full quotations. Most other kinds realised previous rates. Malt was in better request than on Monday last and prices were well supported. Very fine oats were in the market. Nearly all kinds sold steadily and late rates were well supported. The few beans on offer changed hands at full quotations. Peas ruled firm. In prices we have no alteration to report.' There was a fair business doing in tour at folly late rates. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURIS.

As the second cut of hay has proved extensive the supply of food for winter use is unusually large. There was an extensive show of foreign beasts and sheep in to-day's market, and their general quality was rather improved. For the time of year we received a full average number of beasts fresh up from our own grating districts, and their general condition exhibited signs of improvement. As the supply was considerably in excess of the wants of the butchers the beef trade was exceedingly depressed, at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday last of from 2d to td per 81bs. The highest figure for Scots was 4s 8d per gibs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire we received 2,600 short horns ; from other parts of England 500 of various breeds ; from Ireland 700 oxen ; .and from Scotland 40 Scots. Notwithstanding that the show of sheep was by no means extensive the mutton trade ruled heavy, and prices generally were 2d per 81bs lower than on this day se'nnight. The best old Downs sold at 5s per 81bs. Most breeds came to hand in but middling condition. From Ireland we received 800 sheep. I With calves we were scantily supplied, yet the veal trade ruled heavy at Friday's decline in value of 2d per Sibs. ' The top figure was 4s 8d per 8 lbs. There was a fair demand for pigs, and prices had an up ward tendency. Per 81bs to sink the offals. R. d. s. d. Interior Beasts.... 2 Bto 3 0 s. d. I.

Rae, the secretary to the directors and guardians of the poor, stating, in answer to a com munication which had been addressed to the board by the vestry, as to the flogging of certain females in the workhouse, that the board had the subject under its consideration, and that an investigation appointed by the Poor-law Board was about to take place, and that as soon as the proceedings were terminated a report would be furnished by the directors and guardians to the vestry. In answer to questions, the - Vestry Clerk stated that the poor-law inquiry had taken place and terminated, and that certain correspondence was taking place between the directors and guardians and the Poor-law Board, but ' that the communication he had read was the only one he had received from the directors and guardians upon the subject; Some conversation took place, and Dr. Bachhoffner, one of the board of directors and guar dians, informed the vestry that the proceedings were at present in an unfinished state. There was a correspond ence of no very friendly character going on between the Poor-law Board and the directors and guardians, and when it was completed no doubt the entire proceedings would be laid before the vestry. What had taken place was this. The Poor-law Board had appointed an in spector, Mr. Cane, to make an inquiry into the recent flogging case. That gentleman had made his report to the Poor-law Board, and upon that report the Poor-law Board had called upon the directors and guardians to dismiss the master, but made no reference to the porters, it having been understood that the two porters, Green and Brown, bad voluntarily resigned. A rather hasty resolu tion was some to by the directors and guardians, at once setting any authority which the Poor-law Board presumed they possessed at defiance. On Friday last the Poor Law Board had sent down to the directors and guardians of St. Marylebone a peremptory order for the immediate dismissal of the master of the workhouse. This, as a matter of course, w:as also set at defiance by the direc tors and guardians, and a communication directed to be sent to the Poor Law Board, informing them that the directors and guardians of the poor of St. Marylebone declined to carry out any such order. Thus the matter stood, and he supposed that the next communication they had from the Poor Law Board would be in some legal form, which it was the determination of the guardians to meet and contest. In the discussion which followed, Mr. Gliddon, Mr. Freeth, and other members of the vestry, expressed their great disap probation of the flogging of women in the workhouse. Mr. D'lffanger and Mr. Wingfield said that they very much deplored it, though they would support the ry guar dians in their resistance to the dictation of the Poor-law Board. Mr. Gliddon gave notice that next Saturday he would move a resolution as follows :—" That this board is of opinion that the untoward circumstances connected with the recent flogging of women in the workhouse de serve the severest censure of the vestry, as operating to lower the estimation of the parish in public opinion, and as giving occasion to the Poor-law Board to interfere, with a view to deprive St. Marylebone of the independent position it has hitherto enjoyed in the management of its poor.' 8 I BRUTAL MURDUR.—A. brutal ClOlO of murder, arising out of a pudic-hones altercation, took place at Pun doran, in the county of Donegal, on Thursday night. The quarrel did not actually come to blows, when one of the parties, a man named Patrick Couolly, who had re cently i:oturaed from .i.a.merica,produced a knife or dagger and plunged it into the neck of a young man named Francis Conolly, killinc him almost instantaneously, and kickin , l hire while he fell to the ground. in the confu sion and darkness the murderer made his escape, but was captured next morning by the police, and com mitted, on the verdict of a ooroner'e jury, for wilful • murder. fit. ill 25 50 a St. 10 St. 1( 10 31 20 1' 20 al 10 al St. 10 20 1 , 10 St. 1( St. 10 St 1.0 St. 10 10, OLD a St. St. I /0 1 25 1 , 25 St. 1. , St. t 25 2' 20 al 20 al 50 al 20 a 10 a, 5 al 5 IC 20 al 10 a', 20 al 10, a] 20 1 5 ai 20 1 18 a: iOt 6 a: 20 IC 20 : 1711 a 20 1! 10 f 11 20 2: zQ al 100 &I 100 20 2 1 10 1( 25 I a' 100 I. a 100 lo 20 26 I 1 20i 20t 100 tit 100 al 100 a 100 a: 2 2 6 1 el 20 11 20 al 20 I 20 ! 1011 20 I al 5 1 Et. 9n 20 al 20 1.1 8i r: 10 20 a 20 20 6 a' 6 a: 40 1 a 54i,} 4 15k 16 91 81 9 92 i 1i 21 80 631 3 i 95 i i i i iii I.oii 104 2 li 1031 4 '6l 7 6i i 6 7 79 8i 554 5 i 69 1 79 22 121 12 4 154 23 6i 7 RAILWAYS.

SWEDEN. Those who take an interest in the affairs of the north of Europe have not perhaps passed unno ticed the fact published in the Swedish official jour nal of the appointment of a mixed Commission of six Swedes and six Norgewians to meet at Chris tiania under the presidency of the Viceroy, for the better determination of the act of union between the two countries. It is worthy of remark that, though the sister kingdoms have been upwards of 40 years under the same ruler their mutual obli gations, in the event of war, are still undefined. It is in order to supply this important omission, and to obviate any discussion that might arise in the hour of action, and prevent any fatal indeci sion in the time of peril, that this Commission has bees named. It is evident, from the serious attention given to the minutest details of the defence of the country, that the Swedish Government well understands the danger to which the honourable and independent position taken up by the signature of the Treaty of the 21st Nov., 1855, exposes it. Sweden appears well disposed to co-operate in raising a mighty bulwark in the Worth against Muscovite ambition, but she naturally expects that the sympathies of the Scandinavian people will be supported by the Western Powers, and allowed to develope them selves by a still closer union, and that statesmen will more fully understand the capabilities of the North, and its vital importance in the great Euro pean questions of the day. SWITZERLAND. The Gazette of St. Gali publishes the following : " M. G. de Petit.Pierre, Count of Wesdeblen, the poll. tical leader of the insurrection, ex-member of the Diplo matic Corps of Prussia, afterwards Councillor of State at Neuchatel, was in relation with the Berlin Court by his liaison with the Countess of Waldburg-Truch&en, of a mediatised family related to the Royal House. His completecorrespondence, consistingof 44 letters, has been found. They contain the idea and the plans of execution of the insurrection, which are stated with much clear ness. These letters will not be published till after the trial. The Federal Council has taken note of this cor respon deuce." TIIE NEW PUBLIC OFFICES. The specifications for the new public offices will be ready for delivery on the Ist of October. For them the Chief Commissioner of Works invites the preparation of designs for the concentration of the principal Govern ment offices on the site lying between Whitehall and the New Palace of Westminster ; and the other two designs are for buildings which her Maje-ty's Goverment have determined to erect forthwith, as parts of such general asherne-rione for the department of the Secretary of State fur Foreign Affairs, and the other for the Secretary of State for War. The general or block plans are intended to show the best mode of concentrat ing the principal Government offices on the site situated between Downing-street, Westminster Abbey, and St. James's Park and the Thames. The block designs ere also intended to represent any improvements which may suggest themselves to the competitors in the principal approaches to the New Palace at Westminster, as well as in the communication with the Surrey side of the River Thames, especially with reference to the situation of the New Westminster-bridge, the ultimate position of which must be considered in connexion with the de- • signs. The designs for the block plan are to he drawn on a scale of 44 feet to the inch, and the proposed im provements of the public thoroughfares on a scale of five feet to one statute mile. The proposed now - War and Foreign-offices are to be in Downing-street, and on the vacant space of ground which the government already possesses in that locality. Architects will, therefore, have to prepare their designs in accords ce with this ar rangement. A rchitects are also permitted to send in models with their designs, provided the models are on the same scale as the designs. The offices to be pro vided for are the Treasury, including official residences for the First Lord of the Treasury and for the Chan. collor of the Exchequer ; the Foreign Office, including an official residence ; the War Department, the Colo nial Office, the Home Office, the Paymaster-General's Office, the Exchequer Office, the Board of Trade, the Privy Council Office, the Admiralty, the Board of Control, the Poor Law Board, the State Paper Office, the Office of Worka, the Office of Woods, Civil Ser vice Commission, the Charity Commission, the Ecclesi astical Commission, Copyhold, Enclosure, and Tithe Commission, and the Emigration Offices, Architects must, in addition to the offices above enumerated, provide for further buildings, to be appropriated as Government may hereafter determine, to such an ex tent as may be consistent with proper open space and thoroughfares. The prizes for this class of designs will be for the best block plan, 5001. ; for the second beat, 2001. ; and the third, 1001. ; the designs of the recipi ents of the premiums to become the property of the Government. The specifications for the new Foreign office state that the architects are to prepare designs for public offices, and an official residence. The drawings are to show a plan of each floor, longitudinal and trans verse sections, and elevations to a scale of 16 feet to an. inch. Architects are also to send in an elevation of one of the principal fronts, drawn to a scale of eight feet to an inch, and they will be at liberty to send in enlarged details of portions of the designs to a scale of friar feet to an inch. The plans and sections are to have the sites and heights of the rooms figured thereon, and are to be tinted in light brown Indian ink. The elevations are to be in line only—one perspective view, tinted with light brown Indian ink, may accompany the designs ; but models, bird's-eye perspective views, cad drawings in. frames (other than straining frames) and glasses will not be received. The Foreign 0,; ce, exclusive of the offi cial residence, will altogether consist of nearly 200 rooms, some of them of splendid dimensions. For in stance, there are to be two libraries, each 120 feet long by 30 feet. The building is to be fire proof, the rooms lofty, and the corridors wide. The official residence is to contain one state dining room to accommodate 50 per sons, with apartments adjoining for occasional supper and tea rooms, library, morning room, &c. ; five recep tion rooms as suite on the first floor, to accommodate 1,500 visitors ; one or more principal staircases to and from the reception rooms ; about 12 or 14 bedrooms, with a suitable number of dressing rooms, and all the other re quirements of a nobleman's town house. The proposed buildings for the War Department will be still larger, although there is to be no official residence attached to it. The number of rooms altogether will approach very nearly to 270. The dimensions of all of them are to be good, and especial attention is to be directed to their being constructed of proper heights, and with reference to good and sufficient ventilation. The whole of both the offices are to be warmed throughout by an apparatus below, in the basement of t he buildin g s. No restricti ons in the specifications are made as to cost, so that there is a wide margin opened for architects to indulge their tights of imagiestive genius. The prizes for the best designs are—for the two best designs for the Foreign Office and War Department, two premiums of 8001.; for the second best, two premiums 0' 5001.; for the third, two premiums of 300/. ; and for the fifth, sixth, and seventh best, there are two premiums of 1001. each. If the architect to whona a premium may be awarded in respect of the designs, or any of them, shall be employed to superintend the execution of tie work, he will not be entitled to receive such premium, but he will be paid a commission at the rate of five per cent. on the outlay. Such commission to include all expenses for measuring, superintendence, &c., except the salaries of the clerks of the works. Every design sent in is to be inscribed with a motto ; and an envelope with the same motto on the outside, containing the name and address of the com petitor, is to be sent in to the Chief Commissioners of her Majesty's Works and Public Buildin g s. The com missioners will not be answerable for any damage or accident that may happen to the drawings or models, so that architects need be careful. The Iverar , population of Genoa is 110,000 souls. The c?nsumption. of that city in 1855 included 121,337 hectolitres of wine (2,662,814 gallons), 13,080 do. Of oil (281,700 gallons), 2,164 oxen, 9,185 cow, 7,172 calves, 972 pigs, 1,330 quintals (cwt.) of hog's lard, 35,61$ sheep and goa ts, 17,980 lamt s and kids, 372,108 fowls of all kinds, 264,78 5 kilogrammes of dried fish, and 7,046 kilogrammes of cheese. 1 c. u 3t.
