DESTRUCTION OF CARTON HOUSE BY FIRE.—A destruc tive fire broke out on Friday morning at Carton House, the residence of the Duke of Leinster, near Maynooth. From the length of time during which it raged there is much reason to fear that a very considerable portion of the building has fallen a prey to the flames. The fire was discovered about four o'clock, and up to nine o'clock the ravages of the flames were not subdued. Every man in the town of Maynooth, with the students from the college, and great numbers of people from the surrounding country, were on the spot, and under the di rections of the Duke himself, and of the Marquis of Kildare, or Lord Gerald, every possible effort was made to stop the conflagration and to remove the valuable property in the house to a place of safety. The gale, which blew with con siderable violence at the time, spread the fire, and fed its fury with more effect than all the exertions that could be made were able to overcome. The Duchess of Leinster having been confined for some time from illness, it was found necessary to remove her Grace to the steward's house. The house was insured. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. THE CHASE.

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD CORN. LIVERPOOL, DEC. 21.—We bad a limited attendance of either the local or country trade at our market this morning ; wheats have found a difficult sale for consumption, tut the transactions have been at much the same rates as on Tuesday for prime qualities, the turn ld to 2d per bushel in favour of buyers for secondary and inferior descriptions; we had some speculative inquiry, but holders not sufficiently giving way, it resulted in very little business. The sale for flour has been very flat, and the value nominally somewhat easier for both sacks and barrels. Barley and beans dull, with previous rates barely maintained. Oats and oatmeal held about Tuesday's currencies, but scarcely anything doing. Indian corn is also exceedingly dull, and a reduction of 6d per quarter submitted to. BRITISH. FOREIGN.

In the value of all other articles scarcely any change was observable, and therefore previous quotations may be repeated. PRESTON, DEC. 22.—There was a good supply of English wheat at the: Corn-exchange this morning, which met an active demand, and although there were no fine samples of either white or red to command the extreme quotations of last Saturday, yet the general qualities in most instances exceeded the prices obtain able on that day. Parcels in granary very firm. Flour unchanged. Beans ended flat at an abatement of Is per windle. Oats con tinue neglected though offered on rather lower terms. English oatmeal Is. 6d., per load lower. Irish nearly unsaleable. --- • ------- - • WAKEFIELD, DEC. 21.—The wheat trade was slow; best qualities were held firmly for l as t wee k' s rates, b ut other sorts were rather cheaper. Fine barley maintained its price. Other kinds were in limited demand. _ln oats and shelling no change occurred. New beans were rather lower. WISBECH, DEC. 22.—T0-day there has been a good quantity of wheat showing, which all handle better by reason of the keen frost, best runs are Is to 2s, and common runs 2s to 3s cheaper. No alteration in beans, oats, or peas. CORK, DEC. 22.—A week of very bad weather has greatly interrupted business, and flour sells slowly at the late reduction. Foreign wheats are held rather firmly, few buyers appearing. Indian corn continues dull, with light consumption. DUBLIN, DEC. 21.—The supply at the Corn-exchange to-day was extremely dull, and the only alte ra ti on we h ave t o re port in prices is in oats and Indian corn, which must be quoted 6d lower than on Tuesday.

LIVERPOOL, DEC. 25.—The supply to-day, though small, was suited to the demand, which took off all at unchanged prices from those of last week, there being no very superior meat shown. Beasts, 1,636; sheep, 6,101. SALFORD, DEC. 19.—We had a good show of stock, comprising some of excellent quality, which brought good prices. Middling no change in value. Best beef, 6d to 7d ; middling, 5d to 6id : best wedders, 6d to 7d ; heavy weights, 5d to bid ; ewes, 4d to Sid ; calves, 5d to 7d. Number of beasts, 1,519; sheep, 7,555 ; calves, 146. DUBLIN, DEC. 20.—The supply was considerably less than last week, being chiefly for home use. The demand for prime good and tops higher. Beef, sinking offal, 56s to 604 per cwt. for ordinary; 60s to 62s prime : middling, 50s upwards; slaughter, 45s to 465. Mutton at all prices from 40 to 7d per lb. with fewer sheep for sale. Veal, 7d to 70 per lb. in sink. Pigs, a good inquiry for the Engiish market, at Is to 2s per cwt. advance— say 47s to 495. PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, DEC. 21.—There is rather more doing in beef and on medium qualities a concession of about 2s 6d per tierce has been submitted to ; the light stock, however, imparts confi dence to holders. In the absence of assortment of American pork, the dealers supply thomselves with Irish ; for such rather advancing rates are asked. Irish bacon is a little firmer, which will be in favour of early arrivals of new American. Small sales of lard are reported at full prices, and there is now no stock left in first hands. The cheese market is very flat ; fine qualities, how ever, are less difficult to sell than ordinary descriptions. ST.

Mr. Fox, in a letter, has declined to take advantage of his tenants' liberality, urging them to improve their farms. As a mark of their gratitude, the tenants have determined to have their landlord's portrait painted, with the intention of presenting.it to Mrs. Fox. SHIPPING NEWS.

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—The mani fold advantages to the Heads of Families from the posses sion of a Medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sick ness, occurring in families more or less every day, are so obvious to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every housekeeper in the kingdom. They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor, and invigorate the spirits, and if taken atter an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. " For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of Winchmore Hill. Middlesex,) I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief ; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health. which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it." Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddi ness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills are truly excellent, removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very pre valent with the sex; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Ner vous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken ; and for children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they unite the' recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required.

JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its virtues and juices having all evaporated; while it often becomes mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for use, _ _ ENGLISH TESTIMONY. We give a few of the many communications we have received since we have been in Englund, from those who have experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must have some weight in convincing the public of its great value. 49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1. 1851.
