The leading markets held on Saturday were fairly sup plied with wheat, in somewhat improved condition. Most kinds changed bands slowly; nevertheless, very little alteration took place in the quotations. Fine barley and the best oats were very firm, and most other kinds of pro duce realised quite previous rates. . The continental markets are firm for wheat, on higher terms. Spring corn continues to sell freely. In the United States both wheat and flour have produced more money. The arrivals of English produce up to our market, last week, were very moderate. The imports from abroad amounted to 11,363 quarters of wheat, 5,770 barley, 15,747 oats, 180 rye, 674 beans, 3,207 peas, 246 tares, 9,415 lin seed, 930 rapeseed, 260 sundry, 1,992 eacks and 6,495 bar- rels of flour. Fresh up to-day the arrivals of wheat both from Essex and Kent were very, limited ; but the general quality of the samples, owing to the late severe weather,' exhibited a decided improvement. Factors, generally, were very firm in their demands ; nevertheless, millers operate cautiously, and the small business transacted both in red and white samples was at prices equ it to Monday last. The attend ance of buyers was much restricted. _ _ There was no particular pressure of foreign wheat on the stands, yet importers were more willing sellers, at last week's quotations. The transactions were for the most part confined to moderate qnantitios for immediate con sumption. There was some inquiry for floating cargoes, but the number on offer was limited. We have to report a good consumptive inquiry for all good and fine barleys at quite last week's currency. Low parcels of foreign were a dull sale, but not cheaper. The malt trade was tolerably firm ; but we have no advance to notice in the quotations. Oats were in steady request, and the late advance in the value of fine qualities was well supported. The few beans on offer commanded extreme rates. Peas moved off steadily, at very full prices. There was a fair demand for both English and foreign flour, at fully previous rates. Some of the holders of Ame rican refused to sell except on higher terms. CURRENCY PER IMPERYAL ',METRE.

This was an application to discharge the bankrupt from custody. Mr. Jones, for the bankrupt, stated, that in January, last year, the bankrupt came up for his certificate, which was refused, and protection withheld for twelve months. The bankrupt had not avoided his creditors, and had taken a situation as clerk to enable him to support his family. Although he had not kept out of the way he had only lately been arrested, and he trusted, as he had suffered considerably from this absence of protection for a long time, that he would now be discharged. Mr. Cox, for the creditors, said that the bankrupt had carried on business at Pall-Mall, and had once called upon him (Mr. Cox) in reference to a sum of money due from Mr. Bernal Osborne. He wished him (Mr. Cox) not to in terfere with the sum owing by Mr. Osborne. A witness having been called, His Honour characterised this as a most impudent ap plication. One of the charges against the bankrupt was concealment of property, and he (the Commissioner) had no hesitation in saying that had the bankrupt been prose cuted in a criminal court penal servitude for a very long period would have been the result. By a trick and specious statement the bankrupt had obtained from a poor old lady overx farthing she was worth, and his conduct in that affair was cruel in the extreme. It was a most impudent application, and would be refused with costs. POLICE IN7ELL.VT'ENCE—(27tis say). MARLBOROUGH-STREET. BEGGING AT THE CLUBS.-Two powerful .looking men, having the appearance of excavators, named Benjamin Correll and William Brown, were charged before Mr. Beadon with begging of several gentlemen in Regent street, and also at the Parthenon Club. M'Bean, 332 A, said that a little before seven on Satur day evening, a gentleman came to him and told him that the two men were demanding money of him. He went up Regent-street, and saw them stop a gentleman near the Parthenon Club, and afterwards the servants of the club came out and told him the men were in the club-house begging. They then came out, and he then saw them place themselves in front of another gentleman and demand money. They had been drinking, and had been at other club-houses. One of the men said they were going out to the Cape, and that he had a wife and three children, but on account of the weather could get nothing to do. Mr. Beadon said they could get something to drink. The other man said they ought to have been at Mr. Broadhurst's office that morning. They were going to work on the Capetown Railway. They were both from the country. Mr. Beadon said he did not like their losing their pas sage as they were going to the Cape, so he would discharge them. The men thanked the magistrate for his kindness. RURAL LABOURERS IN SCOTLAND. The condition of the rural labourer in Scotland has for some time attracted great attention, chiefly owing to the large per tentage of illegitimate births disclosed of late years in the registration statistics of some of the agricultu ral districts. The great strides of agricultw-e in many quarters appear to have had a prejudicial, not a beneficial, effect on the farm-labourer, and various associations have been formed with the view of elevating his social condition, one of the most important of these being the Association for the improvement of Agricultural Dwellings. On Wed nesday last a meeting was held at Edinburgh to consider the whole subject of the rural labourer's condition. Mr. Stirling, M.P., presided, and among others present were— Mr. Dunlop, M.P., Sir W. Dunbar, M.P., Mr. Wemyss, M.P., Principal Sir D. Brewster, Sir John S. Jorbes, and many of the leading proprietors and tenant farmers in Scot land. The chairman remarked that within the last G or 7 years the Association for the Improvement of Agricultural Dwellings had doubled the number of good cottages in Scot land, and the Legislature had shewn its anxiety to promote the object in view by passing almost without remark a bill for facilitating the erection of cottages on entailed estates, a measure for which the thanks of the country were due to Mr. Dunlop, the member for Greenock. Though much had been already done to improve the condition of the agricul tural labourer, very much still remained to be done. He thought, however, that some of the accounts that had been lately given of the farm labourers of Scotland were charged with too gloomy a colouring. From some accounts given of them a stranger would be led to suppose that the pea santry of Scotland were a demoralized and decaying race. He did not deny the fidelity of some of the pictures that had been drawn of the barbarian of the northern bothy, which had lately surprised the public; but he believed the case described was exceptional, just as the beautiful picture of the cottar drawn by Burns was also exceptional. The rural labourer, like other classes,was subject to temptations which frequently he was unable to resist; and his two vices were drunkenness and adding to the register of illegitimate births. But drunkenness was . now almost banished from the better classes, by the introduction of higher amusement and pur suits, and the operation of the same causes might perhaps in course of time also banish it from that class. In regard to the question of illegitimate births, he thought this fact might be plainly stated, that the law of marriage in Scotland taught the people almost a different morality from that of England. In England a man who stamped on his offspring illegitimacy inflicted on them an irreparable in jury. In Scotland, the injury was reparable, and was very frequeni ly repaired ; and he did not think it would be main tained, on comparison between the registers of illegitimate births in Scotland and in England, that that comparison was so much in favour of England as might naturally be supposed, owing to the difference between the laws of the two kingdoms. The chairman concluded by pointing out how much the welfare of the farm labourer was in the hands of the classes above him, and by remarking that, while nothimg could be done by the latter to improve his condition without cost, the benefits that would result to both tenant and proprietor were well worthy of the cost. The meeting was then addressed by Messrs. Maelagan, Simpson, Cowie, Hope, and other farmers, and by several land proprietors, and the following resolutions were unanimously adopted : " 1. That, taking into consideration the general improve ment in agriculture in Scotland, it is most desirable that increased attention should be directed to improving the condition of the rural labourers. 2. That as comfortable and commodious dwelling great tend to promote morality, delicacy of feeling, and sound bodily health, this meeting, while cordially admitting what has been already done in this direction, would earnestly call the attention of landed pro prietors and farmers to the necessity of increased efforts to provide these in greater numbers than exist at present, and to the facilities afforded for this purpose by recent Acts of Parliament enabling proprietors of entailed and unentailed estates to build and to improve cottages. 3. That as im proved cultivation necessarily implies an increase in the amount and quality of the labour employed, it is the duty and interest of both landlords and tenants that a sufficiency of cottage accommodation be provided on every farm, thus removing at the same time an impediment to the formation of those domestic and family ties so essential to the happi ness and welfare of the human race. 4. That this meeting recognises the necessity of greater attention on the part of proprietors and farmers to the importance of education, both juvenile and adult, and do not merely recommend the regular attendance at school for the former, but that a sup ply of wholesome literature be constantly disseminated among the latter, and especially to the disadvantages con ; netted with the ;practice of taking away children from school during a pressure of field labour." A committee was appointed to take all practical steps thought expedient for the elevation of the farm labourer's condition. WIND AND WEATHER REPORT.

The inquiry created considerable interest, and the large club room of the tavern was densely crowded. Mr. Nicholas Miskin, surgeon, of No. 7, York-road, said that he had made a post mortem examination of the body of deceased. The countenance of deceased exhibited a degree of calmness and composure by no means indicative of suffer ing, rather implying that death was instantaneous. The body exhibited a large number of wounds, same superficial, others deep and penetrating. On the upper portion of the body were 35 wounds, 27 on the left side and 8 on the right, 18 of which were below the angle of the jaw. One scalp wound, two inches above the left eyebrow, exposing the bone. On the right groin and thigh were 45 wounds. The following gentlemen were present when he made the post mortem examination :—Mr. F. T. Buckland, Mr. J. Bush, Mr. Lawton, and Mr. G. A. Miskin. The deceased was about 5 feet 2 inches. On examining the head two large lacerated scalp wounds were found about 3 inches long, and four crossways 2 inches above the right ear, another 2 inches to the left on the top of the head with extravasated blood, another over the left eye half an inch long and denuding the bone of its perios seum. On removing the colvarium underneath the dura mater at the corner of the head considerabl extra vasation, to the extent of 4 inches in diameter, was found. By the Coroner—He attributed that extravasation to a blow. The brain otherwise had a healthy appearance. Examination in chief resumed—On examining the neck a deep-seated wound was found extending to the 6th cer vical vertebra) on the left side. On tracing this wound downwards a portion of the body of this vertebra) was chipped eff, the arsiculasion exposed, and the tip of the transverse process broken off—the animal's teeth having penetrated through the transverse to the spinal canal, causing effusion of blood between the sheath and the spinal column. The carotid artery and jugular vein sustained no injury. On the right groin were two wounds—one above the os pubis and the other below, extending deeply into the abdomen, and at the base of the wounds was a considerable effusion of blood by the side of the intestines, which were uninjured. The femoral artery and viscera sustained no injury, although they must have been in the animal's mouth, enclosed in a mass of muscle. The right lung was firmly adherent to the pleura and slightly congested. The left was perfectly healthy. The heart was healthy. The wounds of the body when dissected were of a much more serious character than their appearances first indicated.. The conclusions drawn from the wounds and their situations are, that the man was seized from behind by the claws of the lion and cuffed right and left, which produced concussion of the brain, and in all probability instant death. The lion bit him on the neck, which was a wound of a very dangerous character. The wounds on the groin and thigh were caused by the animal picking him up to carry him about. At this stage of the proceedings the Coroner and jury went to the theatre to witness the spot where the accident occurred. Upon the return of the jury the following evidence was taken : Robert Thomas Green said—l am in the employ of Mr. W. Batty, as hall porter, at the stage door of the Amphi theatre in Stangate-street. It is an entrance for the ser vants of the establishment only. I knew the deceased man. Last Monday I went on duty at a quarter-past seven o'clock. I got up about half an hour before that time, and went to the hall door, which was ajar. The deceased came in about 20 minutes to eight as near as I can recollect. I was in the little lodge where Mr. Batty keeps his coats, &c. It is on the left hand as you pass to the yard. I had left the hall door open. The deceased Jarvey, as he entered, said, " Good morning." I asked him why he came so early, and he replied, " Ile came to work." lle said nothing more . but passed me, and went down the yard towards the stables. I never saw him again alive. I don't think it was more than five minutes after I saw him that I heard a noise. I went down the yard, where a man was carting away the manure; he got off his cart, and with a'groom named Reynolds looked through the door with glass panels. They went to a door connected with the large gates, and then a remark was made, " The lion has got Jarvey." The Coroner—Mr. Batty, who had charge of the lions? Mr. Batty—Mr. Crockett. Coroner—Was he the only person P Mr. Batty—lie had an assistant named Brown. Mr.•Jas. Crockett was then called and was informed by the coroner that he need not answer any questions that might tend to criminate him should he need to give his evidence on oath unless he chose to do so. He, however, expressed a wish to give the fullest information, and also to give it on oath. He then proceeded :—I am by professien a lion tamer. I know there were three lions and a lionesslat Aetley's Theatre. I performed with them. They are tho property of two gentlemen named Sanger., I have exhibited with them all over the country for the last three or four years. I have have had them out without any guard or chain, one or more at a time. A Juror—Do you mean to say you have had mere than one lion on the stage at a time ? Witness—Yes. Coroner—Then perhaps they are very docile ? Witness—To mcperfectly so. Coroner—We will now go to Monday last. Witness—On that morning a 'lady came over from the theatre and informed me that the lions were loose. I dressed myself and proceeded immediately to the hall door of the theatre. I there seized a hay-fork and proceeded to the gates of the ride. Those gates were closed. There is a small wicket-gate that opens inwardly by pushing it. I opened that door, and when I had it half way open I saw one of the lions near to the stable door on the right side of the drive close to the gates. It was one of the male lions, and in front of him lay the body of a man whom I did not know. He was on his back. The lion was doing nothing with him. He was quietly sitting over him as a dog would a bone. I struck the lion twice with the fork, and he then left the man, who I im mediately picked up and took to the hall. I did not then see either of the other lions. I did not see any blood about the lion's mouth. The man, when I. first picked him up, breathed, and I directed medical aid to be sent for. I then recognised him as the person called Jarvey, who was tem porarily engaged at the theatre. I never saw him in the theatre in the day time. I did not know he had anything to do with washing carriages. On the Saturday previous to the accident three of the lions were exhibited on the stage—one loose, the other two in the cage. They were fed after they were exhibited. I feed them every night after the performance in the large den. The fourth lion on that occasion was separately confined in a small cage about 14 inches from the large den. The lion confined by itself had been unwell for about a fortnight. The small den had been in the position I have mentioned near the large one for about 12 days. The length of the large den is 17 feet 6 inches, 6 feet wide, and the same in height. It is made of iron cased with shutters. It is made precisely as a birdcage. The ends and all parts are of iron. The top is first put on, and then the shutters slide in a groove. The panels or shutters are all secured by iron pins. There aro five panels in front, five at the back, and two at each end. After having taken the deceased man away I then went to the den where the three lions were kept. I found nothing therein but the cloth. The fourth was still in the small cage. The deceased was about 50 yards from the lions' cage. There had been a cloth nailed over the fourth lion, to•Prc" tect the sick lion from the weather. That cloth I found the large den. I then noticed that the door had bse to n opened. One of the panels was dow n. It hadsloP:was the left, leaving the iron bars ex p osed, bat the d open. It opens inwards.

Any person could remove the keys from the sockets, but they could not be taken away, as they were attached to the cage by chains. I have an assistant. His name is Edward Brawn. I last saw the lions on the Sunday night, previous to the accident, about half-past eight. I gave some medicine to one that was unwell, and gave the others some water. I had to remove one of the panels to do so. The panel I found down was the neat one, on the left, covering the door. I replaced the door. Coroner—Having closed the door, are you positive you replaced the fastening key? Witness—Quite sure. I put in two keys and also used two ropes to secure the cage. • Coroner—What did you use the ropes for ? Witness—As an additional security. Corone r —Can you account in any way for the panel coming down in the first instance ? Witness—Not in any way. Coroner—Have you tried t o ascertain ? Witness—Yes, and I cannot discover any.

Sales, however, progressed slowly at barely last week's prices. We were seasonably well supplied with home-fed beasts, and the general quality of all breeds exhibited a further improvement ; whilst the general weight of the stock was a full average one. The attendance of butchers was tole rably good, and the primest Scots, crosses, &c., sold steadily at last weak's prices ; but all other breeds were a dull inquiry, and 2d per 81bs lower than on Monday last. From the northern districts we received about 900 short horns, &c., from the eastern districts, 1,200 Scots, &c.; from other parts of England, 800 various breeds ; from Scotland, 100 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 90 oxen, &c. Prime down sheep were very scarce, and in - fair request at full currencies. All other breeds of sheep which came to hand in fair condition were a dull ;inquiry, and 2d per Sibs lower in prices. The best downs were worth Os per 81bs. We were scantily supplied with calves; nevertheless, the veal trade was ill a sluggish state at last week's cur rency.

Coroner—How did you find the ropes ? Witness—Just as I left them. Secure around the cage. Coroner—Who fed the lions on Sundays? Witness—They are not fed on Sundays. They get some water. Coroner—Have you any doubt about the death of the man being caused by the lion? Witness—None whatever. Coroner—Now we will go back to the accident. Witness—After I had taken the body of Jarvey to the hall I got some lights and went in search of the other lions. I saw one playing with some flowers. I put them into the den, and the one that had killed the man followed me into the den like a dog. The lioness was in a private box. That I secured also. • Coroner—Have you any accusation to make against any body ? Witness—No. I cannot conceive how the shutters could slip down. lam positive the panels were safely put into the groove Coroner--You have no doubt of that ? Witness—None whatever. I am positive the panels were all safely secured. rhave no kind of doubt about it—not the slightest. Coroner—You say you have no charge to make against anybody? Witness—No. Coroner—Has anybody ever threatened either you or Mr. Batty ? Witness—No one, that I know off. I don't think I had an enemy in the place. No one had any ill-will towards • me. Quite the contrary. The evidence of the witness, which was given in the clearest and most unreserved manner, was then read over, and the only correction he made was, that he was not quite sure whether it was himself or his assistant that opened the shutter on the Sunday night. _ _ _ Coroner—You think, then, the door of the cage was ' pulled open by the lions in getting the cloth into the cage? Witness—Yes ; that is the only way in which I can account for the accident. A Juryman—Does not one of the lions now go loose upon the stage during his performance, and is not that the one that killed the matt ? Witness—No. It was the one I saw playing with tho flowers. It never does really go loose, for as soon as my man leaves go of it I take it. H e nry Golding, the watchman, was next examined. He said—MY duty is to look after the safety of the horse" and building. We hare no fires in the theatre. I was on duty as usual on Sunday night before the accident. Mr. Tames told me to go and look after the sick lion. I went, and then I did not notice anything the matter with either the large cage or cloth ; both were in the usual position. Reynolds the groom was with me. At about two o'clock I was called by Reynolds to help him, as one of the horses was kicking about. After that I went with him to look at the sick lion. The shutters were then quite safe, but, the lions inside seemed rather restless, but nothing fo create any alarm in my mind. I again saw the sick lion a little after four. All was secure then. The lions were then very quiet. By a Juror—No other person but myself was present at that time. Coroner—How many persons slept on the premises. Witness—Two or three. The stud groom Reynolds was one. The last time I saw the lions was about half-past six on Monday morning. The shutters were up and all secure. Coroner—Before you left did you admit anybody uncon nected with the premises ? Witness—No. Coroner—Then how did the countrymen who came for the manure get in ? Witness—l had left before they arrived. Reynolds, I suppose, would let the men in, but I cannot say for certain that he did. I had no fear about the lions being properly secured. I visit them now nearly every half hour. I don't know that anybody saw the sick lion after I left. I have a comrade, but he was not at the theatre after twelve o'clock on Sunday. . Mr. Batty—There are two watchmen on duty every evening except Sunday, and then there not being so much fear, one man gets a rest. Coroner—Have you, Mr. Batty, any evidence to give? Mr. Batty—No, sir, none. I agree with Mr. Crockett in all he has said. I know the watchman had properly done his duty, as I have the ordinary tell-tale clock in different parts of the establishment. The father of the deceased was called, and said his son's name was Edward Smith. The Coroner then summed up the evidence, at the ter mination of which the room wag cleared, for the purpose of enabling the jury to deliberate on their verdict. At the expiration of half an hour the public were again admitted, when The Coroner announced that the verdict of the jury was " accidental death." The jury, he stated, were of opinion that the cage containing the animals was not of sufficient strength. He need not make any observation on that part of the verdict, as he felt the opinion of the jury would be attended to as in the event of a second accident, if such was not the case, the verdict would amount perhaps to one of manslaughter. The jury, however, lip to the present time were of opinion that the owners of the animals were exempt from all criminal consequences. _ Dr. M'Cann, of Parliament-street, was in attendance on' the part of Mr. Batty, to give evidence as to the cause of death in case any doubt should arise in the minds of the jury. M. SCRIBE AND THE LATE MARSHAL ST AlticAU.D. In 1353 M. Scribe, the dramatist, sold a house and grounds called Montalias, in the neighbourhood of Meudon, to Marshal de St. Arnaud for 150,000 f., and in 1859 the marshal's widow sold them to M. Collineau, an ex-agent de change at Bordeaux, for 290,000 f. The deed of sale to that gentleman set forth that the park, kitchen garden, and four pieces of land which composed the domain were of about 11 hectares, but when he came to measure them he found that they were not very much more than half. Re accord ingly brought an action before the Civil Tribunal against Madame de St. Arnaud to get back part of his purchase money, and the singular discovery was then made that though since 1915 the domain had been possessed by diffe rent persons, the Duke de Bassano, M. Testu, M. Laffitte, M. Ch. Nodier (the author), &c., the park, kitchen garden, and land had never been measured, and had always been described as consisting of about 11 hectares ; it was also discovered that this arose from the four pieces of land having been by error described in a deed previously to 1815 as being of 8 hectares (the hectare is 21 acres, though in reality they were only of about 8 acres—the acre is 100 square metres). The tribunal held that, as the deed of sale executed by Madame de St. Arnaud did not guarantee that there were 11 hectares, M. Collineau's action could not be admitted. An appeal of this gentleman against the deci sion was heard on Saturday by the Imperial Court, but the judgment was confirmed. In the course of the pleadings the statement was made that in the park there is an old walnut-tree, under which, according to tradition, Rabelais wrote part of his works. The following curious letter from M. Scribe to Marshal St. Arnaud, showing the way in which the author drove a bargain with the hero of the coup d'etat, was read in court, and produced much amusement : "Montalais, May 4, 1853. " Monsieur le Marechal,—After your gracious visit the Council assembled for domestic deliberation, and the per sonage whom you so justly style the Minister of the In terior,' my wife, opened the debate. She entirely agreed with you that, its a matter of business, we must altogether leave out of the account the fact that this merely pleasure property cost us 100,000 crowns (300,000 f.) and that we should forget all the money expended upon it from fancy or caprice ; but at the same time she observes that the outlay which has really augmented the value should be taken into consideration; that the building hewn out of the rock whifh now forms the stables, coach-house, granaries, and e4r . r o ta n rooms, cost 30,000 f.; that seven or eight acreso f the _r garden and park, bought at 100 f. the perch— I.‘ t' too , are at bti:ildili v g, f. an th d e acre, cost—and a folly it was-80000f , but tha_ any rate honestly worth half the money; f t o ha r amottur taia i s , and my Mini sterthe original property, added to 30,000 f. t o 20,000 f., whicb. t 130,000 f. for 40,000 f. for additional lands, is the sum we originally asked fo o rltfe reducing that point at higgling, to 160,000 f. of the Interior argues thattition enable, and loyal manner, once of our own accord, without we are treating in a frank, , r. better than any ore else, must Minister also says, and your which you, M. le A x l e ag e h o a t i appreciate. My t at less than the real value in order real estate is always pu and that if Montalais were put up in notary will eolith.; her assertion, that the upset price of a d7.1:07600f. it would fetch by auction a third ails itapened only three days ago in the lustmaeore,oiNo. 34, Rue de Provence, which being put up tract case of was knocked down for 400,000 f., in. t three a bti at the teeth of our notary, M. Wasselin, who had offered on our account as much as 380,000 f. My wife adds, moreover, that the universal rise in the value of every de scription of propery, and the unheard-of prosperity of affairs in general,are owing to the events of Dec. 2, of which M. le Marechal was to a great extent the glorious author, and that he cannot complain of any augmentation of which he is the cause. For all these reasons, M. le Marechal, the unanimous opinion of the Council is that our proposal of 160,009 f. was really equitable, and that we must abide by it, hoping that your amiable and charming Minister of the Interior will deign to take into consideration all the reasons hereinbefore urged. It will always be understood, as we said yesterday, that half the purchase-money only is to be paid down, and the other half according to your convenience, even by monthly instalments if you like, so that you may scarcely feel that you are paying anything ; it is also agreed that our old furniture shall be valued at once, and that your will take hereafter only such articles as may suit you, but that you will do us the honour to make use of it for a year. Possession may be had to-morrow or next day if you so wish. It is with pain, I confess, that I leave Montalais, which' have inhabited for a quarter of a century, and where I have passed 25 of the most laborious, and at the same time the most agreeable, years of my life. But my regret is di minished by the thought that, thanks to my illustrious successor, Montalais, which I have so much loved, will be come an historical residence, and will never be forgotten. " Accept, Monsieur le Marechal, the assurance of my high and respectful consideration. " EUGENE SCRIBE, of the French Academy." Notwithstanding the ingenious pleading of M. Scribe's " Minister of the Interior," the Marshal made him strike off 10,000 f. from his ultimatum, and, as above appears, Madame St. Arnaud was fortunate enough to sell the Pr?: perty at the end of six years at a profit of 140,000,--nearlY cent. per cent. 1 i I
