Many persons,no doubt, are surprised we've not written Concerning our Monarch on board the Great Britain ; And, perhaps, they have thought that we meant to let slip, The honour thus paid to the giant-like ship. But no, we an humble endeavour have made, To suggest a few hints in the way of our trade. When the Queen walk'd the deck of the wonderful barque, And waited Its mighty proportions to mark, She was just as much struck with the progress of art, As if she had visited MOSES'S Mart. The Great Britain ship, as it lay in the water, Was an object of wonder to Brunswick's fair daughter, And the gaze of the Queen would be equally won, fly the mighty Columbus of MOSES and SON. The Great Britain ship, and the Groat British Mart, May justly be teres'd the Twin Wonders of Art. And while the Great Britain is King of the Sea, MOSES' Warehouse shall boast of an equal degree. Yes—its commerce shall happily rise and expand, While thousands proclaim it The King of the Land.

The Proprietor had the honour of submitting the Model to his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and he is delighted to say it met with his most decide and perfect approval, and from the more than usual care which has been observed in its execution, he points it out as the happiest production of Mr. Danson's pencil.

JONATHAN SHARP; OIL, THE ADVENTURES OF A KENTUCKIAN, WRITTEN BY HIMSELF.—After Colonel Crocket and Sam Slick, we sadly wanted a new specimen of an American literary hero, and Jonathan Sharp has done wisely in presenting himself as an adventurer of a different type to those with which we are already fami liar. Our Kentuckian has gone through a series of ad ventures of the most exciting character, in Cuba, in 1 Mexico, in Texas, among various tribes of Indians in the neighbourhood of the States, as well as some of a less startling nature in Europe, and has written his history partly %ith the object of displaying to his countrymen the deplorable state in which society exists among them, and partly to make the European reader acquainted with the true state of affairs in Texas, &c. His narrative is w3rthy of De Foe. It is full of romance from beginning to w oeunl not TThere i e m s a s a c e ar t c h e e l y a fortune rt ane chapter in h of a m t o d e o w r n o r k a o t v h e a l l o i f s t t , h t e lar ß a w co h a e n t h e eerra o tt f ie the au ll th a o v r an b n e a exploring y ri t n h g e haunts among the trackless prairies of Tex as , dwelling with the hospi table m planters ornion nd a n la!

But even this grant is not to be made with out a display most offensive to the nation and disgrace. ful to humanity. A Tory Government proposes a heal ing measure. Any other Government might have tried the experiment, but the experiment would have failed. The Tories were blamed, and we blamed them among others, for their harsh proceedings towards the Irish nation—for withholding their just rights—for treating them as slaves—for calumniating their religion, and making them aliens and outcasts in the first empire of civilised Europe, which they had ennobled by their deeds. A Tory Government has admitted the grievous error—it wishes to make atonement, and begins with a grant about one half in amount of what is given to the Pres byterians of the North. But the amount is nothing in the question ; the principle is everything ; and in what a miserable plight does principle appear. In the esti mates for the present year arc the following grants :—For the Professors of Oxford and Cambridge—the richest Universities in the world-2,0061. ; Universities in Scot land, 7,3801. ; University of London, 4,540/. ; Public Education in Great Britain, 75,000/. ; British Museum, 100,277/. ; and other items of the same amount for ob jects of education to Catholics as well as Protestants, but when a Tory Government proposes a grant, nct a new grant, to Maynooth—simply an increase of 17,0001. for the education of some 2,000 priests to administer the consolation of religion to 7,000,000 of our fellow-sub jects—many Protestants who bad been petitioning the same Tory Governent for years to obtain a boon for themselves, in the shape of a remission of church-rates, exclaim in the most violent language against the measure, as if it were a crime of unspeakable enormity. The Irish Catholics remember, though others forget, the circumstance, that the Protestants of the north of Ireland, who are as good Christians, and hate establish : ments as much as the Dissenters of Yorkshire and Lat.- cashire, are silent as death on the subject. Their principles cause no compunction of conscience in this instance; they are thankful for what they receive, and let principles look to themselves. The Church of Scotland, which receives a bounty of 10,0001. a year, is equally silent, and both these classes of reli- gionists would consider it a grievous insult if they were denounced by any body of Christians as less consistent, less holy, and less alive to the great principles of the Reformed faith, than the Wesleyans, and Anabaptists, and Independents. These are facts, and cannot be dis puted. They cannot escape the notice of Irish Catholics; and when they look to the ample provision made for the Catholic:worship in every colony belonging to the British empire, have they any grounds to be thankful for such a miserable pittance as this Maynooth grant, accompanied, as it is, with every possible insult from numerous bodies of Englishmen ? They are calum niated in Parliament and out of Parliament. The very Government journals, or journals that assume the name, brand them with infamy. English liberal journals, that once advocated their cause, have turned against them when there is a chance of success; and only two London papers adhere to their principles, and prefer honourable conduct to every consideration. For what then are the Catholics of Ireland to be thankful ? The proposed grant which has caused such violent denunciations against Popery, and . almost everything Irish, is the most insignificant trifle imaginable when compared with their just demands. The Protestant Establishment of course cannot be touched. Were a mea sure brought forward for destroying that mon ster" grievance in a Catholic community, possibly the Dissenters would be quiet; but would Sir ROBERT INGLIS and his party, or the Church of England, show the same forbearance? The present commotion convinces the Catho lics that they have no hopes from the great body of Eng lishmen, and that they must work out their own freedom. This is the real ground of the dissatisfaction. On re ceiving the first intelligence of the favourable change evinced in the minds of Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir JainEs GRAHAM they expressed unbounded gratitude, and anti cipated that this was only a beginning of justice, but the vile attacks upon their religion, and the unconquerable enmity displayed towards them by Englishmen, have blasted their hopes, and almost driven them to de spair. They wish to see their beloved SOVEREIGN among them, but they cannot repress their in dignation, and will not welcome her in chains. They have the spirit of freemen, and, if they acted otherwise, they would not deserve the name. Neither Scotsmen nor Englishmen would have submitted to such oppres sion as the Irish have suffered fur one year without bloodshed, and the Irish have now submitted patiently fur half a century, praying, and petitioning, and begging, for their rights in vain. When a paltry offer is made by their old enemies, their old friends rebel against it, and, because they resent the in sult, they are called ungrateful, and denounced as men that deserve no favour. Can we blame them for cr)ing out for repeal? They show a spirit which every impartial Englishman admires. The universal shout raised for liberty iii America found a response in this country which sealed the independence of the vigorous young colony, and Ireland may rest assured that, notwithstanding th e present lowerings in the political and religious horizon Englishmen will yet be true to their character, and side with the oppressed. It was once a proverb of approved truth that "ex amples teach where precepts fail." This proverb has outlived its reputation among us. Every day furnishes fresh and signal evidences of the fruitless influence of examples—in all their elements of the most impressive character—to read any lesson of wisdom to the preju dices of bigotry. But the case briefly put by Mr. RUTHERFORD, on Thursday night, in his wise, tempe rate, and philosophical speech, on moving for leave to bring in a " Bill to regulate the admission to lay or secular chairs in the Universities of Scotland," deve lopes this perverse insensibility to experience in a way that one should fain hope must prove irresistible from its truthfulness. It is really wonderful to note the timidity of modern statesmen about putting themselves at the head of, and thereby guiding and controlling, great movements of public opinion, instead of vainly attempting to erect dams against them, constructed with the crumbling masonry of obsolete prejudices; or apa thetically looking on, inactive spectators of the for midable current which sets right in upon their imaginary seat of refuge, and, if not diverted by timely and active exertions to divert its course into some new channel, must sweep them in its headlong impulse to destruction. The very Ministers who in their own persons have so often encountered this peril, and have seen their less for tunate predecessors in office actually overwhelmed through their want of alacrity in meeting it, seem already to have forgotten both the magnitude of the hazard and the miracle of their former escapes from it. '('hey deferred the repeal of the 'rest and Corporation Acts till the just indignation of the Msenting body all denominations throughout the United Kingdom con vulsed the Established Church to its very foundations; and they postponed the relief of the Roman Catholic disa• bilities until that delay of justice had almost produced a severance of the empire. In the same manner they seem inclined to treat the general feeling of Scotland upon that system of subscription tests which it has bee❑ actually attempted to enforce against one of the pro foundest professors of natural philosophy whom our age has produced, to the extent of expelling him from the chair he fills in that capacity. To the de mands of such a feeling, so reasonable, so just, in itself, there can be little doubt but that ultimately the present Government, strong though it be, must suc cumb. The mischief is that they will probably refuse to comply with it, until compliance will have lost not only the grace, but the preonce of favour; and the most serious mischiefs of disunion and decay shall have, in consequence, overtaken those time-honoured and admi rable institutions, the universities of Scotland. Mr. RUTHERFCRD showed that, by the Acts of 1619 and 1707, it was declared that no parties should be capable of filling any office in the universities of Scot land, without having first taken the oath of allegiance, subscribed the " Declaration or Confession of Faith," and signed a formula submitting themselves to the dis cipline of the Presbytery. The Right Hon. and Learned Gentleman bad good reason to say that these Acts had never been enforced in all the universities, nor, in their universal bearing, at any one of them. Let us pause, for a moment, to reflect how irreparable a loss the world of science and discovery would have sustained had the revelations and researches of such minds as HUTTON'S and DALTON'S depended on their implicit acceptance of formalised dogmas as old as the " Solemn League and Covenant." As inconsistency in practice is always the concomitant of an attempt to establish the uniformity of arbitrary rules, the requirements of these Acts have followed that law of moral compensation. In some of the Universities of Scotland they are enforced only as to the Professors ; in others only to the office-bearers. Could there be devised a more logical proof of their combined impropriety and inefficiency, than this fact? In what respect can the air of Edinburgh modify the necessity which exists in the Marischal College at Aber deen for an office-bearer to sign the formula and sub scribe that declaration? If it be necessary for a Pro fessor at Glasgow to submit himself to the discipline of the Presbytery, and attest, by his subscription, a Decla ration of Faith, how comes that obligation to cease when you are within 11 ach of the breeze that blows off the Frith of Forth? Or, take the converse of these liabili- ties ;—place Edinburgh in the room of Aberdeen, or Glasgow in that of Edinburgh —is the discrepancy one whit the less ridiculous? But here is the fatal fact: the absurdity is not only recognised, but consecrated by the usage; and not only is the usage consecrated, but it is exacted under penalties no less severe than the lia- bility to forfeiture and expulsion, in case of refusal to comply with such exaction. We learn from Mr. RUTHERFORD that in the University of Edinburgh, which has certainly produced the most distinguished men, this notable law has long been in abeyance, and never enforced at all against any lay professor. His object, ricrefore, was to do away, by his Bill, with the necessity, fur th© future, of any lay professor's signing either the Confession of Faith, or the formula of suh- mission to the Presbytery, not touching merely the theological chairs, but applying this provision and pro tection to those only devoted to literature and science. Whilst he felt it might be very necessary that those youths who were being brought up to the Established Church should be instructed in divinity, according to the doctrine and rule of that Church, by teachers who were bound by that rule and doctrine, he did not see the ne cessity for a similar restriction as to those other teachers who had nothing to do with divinity. It is honour able to the Scottish professors that a large majority of them at all the Universities had expressed their con current wish that the requirements in question should be done away with. If it be not, as Mr. RUTIIER FORD argued, carried, the Universities must break up as fearfully as the Church is breaking. Exclusive tests will work over again their old results in the destruction of the tyranny and folly which exact them; the tyranny and the folly which, a year ago, were not ashamed to do their utmost to oust Sir DAVID BREWSTER from St. Andrews, "as if (as it was well said) he had not distinguished the college ten times as much as the college could have distinguished him." We close with the most pithy anecdote we have met with for some time, for the digestion of your unyielding, uncompromising, unreasoning advocates of the exclusive beauty and bene ficence of Church Establishments, and who denounce as timidity and folly all concessions to—all conciliation of Dissent. The Episcopalian sections of the Scottish people comprise, professedly, the wealthiest landowners and proprietors in Scotland. Some years ago they were eager to establish an Episcopalian College, but up to this time have not been able, with all their exertions, to collect more than 18,000 L in all that time for such a pur pose. What have those done who have separated from the Established Church ? They were anxious to found a College for their body. They asked, were there not enough among them who could subscribe 1,0001. each ? In less than three weeks 22,000 L were subscribed by twenty-two individuals, who were principals in this sepa ration. We add no comment on the fact. Madrid journals of the 27th ult. have been received. On that day a grand levee was held at the Palace, which was numerously attended. The concordat, it is said. will be signed on the 27th at Rome, and on the same day M. CASTILLO will officially present to the PoPE his cre dentials as Minister Plenipotentiary to the Holy See. Thus the relations between Spain and the Court of Rome may be considered as entirely re-established. • The QUEEN was expected to leave Madrid for Barce lona about the 12th instant. The Three per Cents were done on the Madrid Bourse on the 26th ult. at 35i, at sixty days; the Five per Cents. at 25i, at sixty days ; and the Debt without interest, at 8i at sixty days. The Paris papers are chiefly occupied with the cere monies observed on the occasion of the Kisio'sfite, and the debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the Jesuits. The PoPE's Nuncio, in the name of the Diplomatic Body, presented an address to his Majesty, in which he said :—" Your constant efforts, with those of other Sovereigns for the maintenance of order and peace, will continue to merit the benediction of Heaven." To which the KING replied :—" I receive with lively sa tisfaction the congratulations you bring to me in the name of the Diplomatic Body. I rejoice with you that my constant efforts, so happily in accordance with those of the other Sovereigns, have contributed to maintain the peace of the world. GOD will con tinue to bless them, and I have the fullest confidence that we are destined t o a l ong en j oyment of this great good , which is so previous for all na tions. lam affected by those wishes, the expression of which I love to receive through you, and I thank you for the sentiments you testify f or t h e prosper i ty of France and the happiness of my family." To the address of the Archbishop of PARIS, in his name and that of the clergy, he made the following reply : " 11 , Iy first desire is, as you know, that religion should be surrounded with all the veneration that is due to it. Thi s is it at once the duty of kings and the interest o f man ki n d. I take pleasure in ac knowledging how greatly the wisdom of the clergy of Paris has oftentimes seconded ine in this great task. Brought up under its eyes, lam happy in testifying to it the remembrance of this, which I preserv - e, and to thank it for the sentiments and good wishes which you in its name have expressed for my family and for myself." On Friday M. TntEas made a speech in the Chamber of Deputies relative to the Jesuits and the affairs of the Church, which lasted for two hours, and was listened to with deep attention by a full House and a most crowded audience. At the conclusion he called upon the Cabinet to execute the laws, and dissolve a religious congregation. which was the sole cause of the divisions that had lately manifested themselves in the Catholic community. The Minister of Public Worship admitted that the laws of the kingdom authorised the dissolution of all congregations existing without the sanction of the Government, but though the Govern ment had such a power, the :present was not a fit case for its application. " The Jesuits had acted imprudently; but it could not be seriously pretended that public tran quillity would be perilled unless the order was dispersed. The clergy, he regretted, had imprudent friends in the Chamber, who wished it to believe that any step taken against the Jesuits would be the commencement of, measures against the Church in general ; but it might be certain that the State would ever consider its protection a sacred duty." M. DUPIN maintained that the law, until repealed, ought to be carried into effect. " The POPE: himself had not hesitated to declare the order a dangerous body. The Govern ment knew its duty, but it could not fulfil it without the aid of the Chamber ; religion was honoured in France, but only religion as represented by her bishops and curt a, and the cutting off from it such eccentrities as the Jesuits, would go far to strengthen its cause." The Chamber then rose, and, at the sitting on Satur day, the discussion was resumed by M. BERRYER, who contended that such laws did not exist ; " but," conti • nued the speaker, " what I wish to demonstrate is the incredible extent to which such a principle might be carried—what I claim is she plenitude of the right of the Catholic Church—what I ask is whether our Govern ment be strong, enlightened, and honest enough to en• lure the liberty that exists in England and in the United States? And since I have just named England, remember what has just passed in that country. In England there is an established religion, and the Prime Minister of England has just demanded and obtained a grant for the mainten ance an d extens i o n of a religion differing from that predominating religion. 'This is liberty in its plentitude.—(Clamou r and interruptions.) The question of the Catholic congregations is eminently connected by the Catholics with the liberty of conscience, and to the free exercise of their worship. With them a cloistered life is a pass to perfection. To suppress it is to attack their liberty. But let us not talk of dogmas." The Attorney-General rose to reply, and was left speaking. The following summary of the opinion of the press on this subject appears in Galignanrs Messenger : " The Dibats gives credit to M. Thiers for the moderation that he displayed, and says it will not suspect him of having brought forward this subject with a view to annoy the Go vernment. The ' clear a n d explicit ' declarations of the Minister of Justice in reply to M. Thiers, must, says the Debats, be regarded as satisfactory on this question. 'lf the Ministry would wish to retract, it cannot. That the ex istence of the Jesuits in France is illegatis a point which no longer admits of doubt.' The Globe says it agrees with M. Thiers in thinking that the Jesuits are dangerons to public tranquillity, but not on the same grounds as lie has taken. The Jesuits are dangerous, says the Globe, because the people dislike theni, and, therefore, are estranged from the .clergy. The Constitutionnel gives a glowing account of the speech of the ex-President of the Council and of the effect that it produced. Of the speech of the Minister of Justice, it observes that it is difficult to understand what he really means, but he seemed to promise that a negotiation for the shutting up of the Jesuit establishments in France should be entered upon with the Pope, and that whatever should be the issue of that negotiation the French Government would not the less adopt the measure in question. The Courrier Francais said the speech of M. Thiers displayed a seriousness and moderation which were in good taste. It was one of the most remarkable .4)2eches, says the Courrier, that M. Thiers ever pronounced; as to the Minister of Justice, never did he make a more wretched effort to produce effect.' The National repeats its arguments against the Je -1 suits as a political body, and as forming the corps d'elite of the army of counter revolutionists, of which it has so fre quently spoken, and expresses the highest admiration of the way in which the attack was made upon them by M. 'Thiers, who, it says, constantly commanded the silence, and capti vated the attention of the Chamber. The Quotidienne and the France believe, or wish to make the public believe, that the speech of M. Thiers was a failure. The Quotidienn', after alluding to the sensation which the announcement of this attack upon the Jesuits had produced, and the exces sively crowded state of every part of the Chamber of Depu ties to which the public are admitted, says—' A drama was expected, but M. Thiers with his little face and croaking voice disenchanted the brilliant crowd.' " The French Funds on Saturday were more firm. The Three per Cents. closed at 85f. 75c. ; the Five per Cents. at 120 f. 60c. ; Orleans Shares, 1,200 f. ; Rouen, 1,075 f. ; Havre, 860 f. ; Avignon, 1,005 f. ; Basle, 272 f. 50c. ; Belgian Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 62f. ; Spa nish Actives, 401 ; ditto, Three per Cents., 42 ; ditto, Passives, 8. NAMUR AND LIEGE RAILWAY.—We observe by L' lndependance Beige, that the Chairman of this Com pany, Mr. Spotteswoode, Governor of the Union Bank, Mr. B. M. Bates, of the firm of Strahan, Pauls, and Bates, Mr. Gurney Fry, Mr. W. Reynolds, resident director, accompanied by Mr. Rennie, the engineer, and Mr. Cary, the solicitor to the Company, had an audience with the Minister of the Public Works of Belgium, at Brussels. After which, those gentlemen set out for Liege' and Namur, and from thence they will proceed to Mons and Manage. The affair is proceeding most prosperously, the deputation having been most favourably received by the Belgian Government. THIS DAY'S NEWS. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton market at Liverpool on Saturday was very quiet. Sales, 3,000 bales at previous rates, but with an abundant choice. The Share Market was closed for a holiday.

One of the most important features in the last accounts from Canada is the rapidly increasing disposition shown to extend public works, and form railways and harbours of pro tection on the St. Lawrence. We were previously advised that a project for the construction of a railway from the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic had been broached, and that a Bill for that purpose had passed the Legislature, and had received the assent of the Governor. Many of the Canadian merchants here were to be asked to join those in the colony in the under taking, the advantages of which cannot be too highly estimated as a means of developing the resources of British North America; but as this and other great works will give full employment to thousands of emigrants from this country, a northernly terminus of the Provincial line was to be established at Portland. It is to be hoped that the surplus- capital here will be directed to the carrying works of this kind to the principal British colonies, as well as to the East Indies, where a most ample field exists for extending internal communication. The rapidity with which schemes for continental railways are got up here ought to make monied men very cautious how they part with their cash, because if the plans do not succeed, their deposits will be pretty well sweated before the companies will be solved. We find that a suggestion we made some time since of calling for a deposit at the time shares are written for has been adopted. This will effectually put a stop, or nearly so, to persons applying solely for the purpose of selling their letters of allotment. Papers to the 12th ult. have come to handby the Washing ton, from New Ycrk. Money was rather tight, and tem porarily the stock market was affected by this circumstance. From Rio de Janeiro there is intelligence to the 11th of March, and from Buenous Ayres of the 22d of February. The political news is not important. The blockade by Buenos Ayres was being more rigidly enforced, and no vessels would be allowed to trade with the ports of that re public unless they could show that they had not touched any where within the Monte Videan territory. Some of the foreign railways evidently do not afford satis faction to the inhabitants of the districts for whose advan tage they are professedly concocted here. It is stated in ac counts from Belgium that the Louvain and Jemappe station at Havre is a quarter of a league from the town, and that of Jemappe, connected with the State railway, is four leagues from Namur, and four from Charleroi. In the City this morning very many anxious inquiries have been made to learn the full extent of the dreadful ac cident at Yarmouth, but there are not any facts of import ance known beyond those which appear in the daily papers. In the British Securities there has not been much busi ness done this morning. Consols for the Account have fluc tuated from 98 3 / to 98%, and for Money from 98% to 98% ; money is rather in request, but the rate of interest has not been advanced, as far as we are enabled to learn. The pre mium on Exchequer .bills is rather heavy at 555. Not a bar gain has been made in India Bonds. Bank Stock has fallen to 209, and India Stock, for the Account, is 290 1 . The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been in fair re quest at 100% %. The quotations of the Foreign Bonds were very steady this morning. The Spanish Five per Cents. have been done at 30% • the Three per Cents. 41% • and the Passive Bonds at 7 1 /;,. The Portuguese Converted have touched 67% to 67 1 4 for the Account. Russian are up to 118. Dutch Four per Cents. 97%. Mexican Stock for the Account has been steady at 37% to 37 3 / 4 . Columbian at 15%. The Railway Share market has been very varia ble to-day, with a considerable amount of business in progress. The principal alterations have been in the Great Western, which have receded, the London and Birminghams, which have advanced, as have the Newry and Enniskillen. In other shares not much change has oc curred. The French lines of railway are looking better—the demand for the best lines being on the increase—especially for the Bordeaux, Toulouse, and Cette, the Great Northern of France, and the Lyons lines. The National Bank of Ire land Shares have been quoted at par. BRITISH FUN DS TIII S DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK. (From the Official List.) Bank Stock 2lO 209 3 per Cent.

The past week's arrivals of English Wheat have been, the time of year considered, moderately good, and of full average quality, while those of Barley, Malt, Oats, Beans, and Peas, have been limited. Of Irish Oats the receipts have been far from extensive; while from abroad the imports have been rather limited. Fresh up, only a limited quantity of home-grown Wheat was received; hence the stands were rather scantily filled with samples of both red and white. On the whole, the attendance of both town and coun try dealers was rather limited, yet the finest parcels were in steady request, at prices about equal to those paid on Mon day last. In all other qualities comparatively little was doing, yet the rates were mostly supported. At the clese of business a total clearance was not effected. We continue to receive very flattering accounts respecting the young wheats from nearly every part of the country. There was very little foreign Wheat on offer. Good sound parcels free of duty were in fair request, but all other kinds were a mere drug. In prices we can notice no variation. Bonded Grain was almost nominal. The Malting season being now nearly over, indeed, many of the large malsters have already ceased work, the Barley trade was very dull, at barely stationary figures. In Malt, the supply of which was small, we have very few sales to report ; but when they were pressed, lower rates were complied with. The Oat trade was steady at fully last week's prices ; while Beans and Peas were quite as dear. Flour and Seeds heavy, at late rates.

The num ber of foreign Beasts here did not exceed 25, and which mostly found buyers at full rates of currency—viz., from 161 to 181 per head. The Calves were worth 31 lOs to 415 s each. At the outports, no stock has been received from Holland, but several imports are shortly expected at Hull. It Kill be observed, front our weekly returns, that a very great increase has taken place in the importations of Dutch Beasts this season, compared with those of last ; yet we are quite of opinion, judging from the accounts which have just come to hand, that a further improvement will be noticed in them for some time hence. Although a portion of the Beasts and Sheep here to-day was suffering from the effects of the epidemic, the disease presented itself in a mitigated form, as very few losses have been experienced in transmitting the supplies to our markets. On the whole, the nutriber of beasts here this morning, de rived from our own districts, were seasonably extensive, while a slight improvement was apparent in those received from Norfolk. The dead markets being well cleared of their late arrivals, the weather somewhat favourable to slaughtering, and the attendance of buyers rather numerous, the Beef trade was active, at an improvement in the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight of quite 2d per bibs; the primest Scots and Homebreds rea dily producing 4s 2d per Blbs, at which a good clearance was effected. Mr. Vorley had on sale ten of the most extra ordinary short horns, fed by Mr. G. Everett, of Caslow, near Yarmouth, we almost ever recoll ec t t o h ave witnessed here atthis season of the year. These perfect animals, which weighed about, one hundred and forty stone, were disposed of at a high price, and dispatched per railway to Bristol. The supply . of store things was rather limited; while the transactions in them from the more plea. tiful supply of grass, were at somewhat improved quotations From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, were 1,500 Scots, Home- breds, and Short-horns ; from the northern counties, 200 Short-horns ; from the western and midland districts, 300 Herefords, Runts, Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England 250 of various kinds; and from Scot land 200 Scots. The most important feat ure in to day's market was the activity in the Mutton trade, and the great improvement in the currencies. For instance, the b es t old Downs produced 9 s per 811 T without difficulty, other kinds selling readily at a proportionate advance. It appears to be the pretty general opinion that a further enhanced value will be speedily realised. From the Isle of Wight we received 240 Lambs; but from other parts the arrivals were rather limited. The Lamb trade was active, at fully Friday's im proved quotations. The Veal trade was steady, at 2d per Sibs more money. Pigs, 100 of which were Irish, moved off slowly, at late rates. Per 81be. to 13111 t the offal, s. d. s. 0. s. d. to s. d.

Although a decided falling off has been apparent in the arrivals of slaughtered Meat up to these markets during the past week, they have proved seasonably extensive, and of fair average quality. With Meat killed in the metropolis we we have been fairly supplied. Yet the demand, especially for Mutton, has ruled active, at an advance in the currencies obtained on Monday last, of from 2d to 4d per 81bs, and clearances have been effected by the salesmen without difficulty. About 700 carcases of Lamb have reached us, per railway, front distant parts, and which have found buyers, at the above improvement in the quota lions.
