WAKEFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JAN. 13. We had a large supply of Sheep at our market this morning, with a fair show or B..lasts, and a good attendance of buyers. Beef, 6s. to 6s. 6d, ; a few prime, 6s. 9d. per st. Mutton, 6d. to 64d. per lb. Sheep, 6500; Beasts, 500. We had a large sup ply of lean Cattle and Calvers. THE IRISH GRAIN MARKETS. These markets continue in a most excited state, supply being difficult to be ground to meet the immense consumption. The extreme price of Wheat is now 50s. ; of Barley, 30s. ; of Oats 235. ; of Oatmeal 275., and of Flour 28s. per cwt.; Bran is Ba. to 9s. per cwt., being nearly equal to that of course Oat meal in former years. WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JANUARY 15. The arrival of Wheat is large, yet the deurand is proportionate, and a further improvement of 2s. per quarter is obtained. Barley is Is. to 28. per quarter dearer, mid Malt is 3s. per load higher. Oats and Shelling are ready sale at last week's rates. Beans are held at Is. to 2s. advance. LEEDS CORN MARKET, JANUARY 12. We have- a large supply of graM to-day, except Beans. We have experienced a steady sale fdr Wheat, at last week's prices; in some instances rather better prices have been obtained for 'choice dry samples. Barley sold at 3s. per quarter advance, but the prices asked check the demand. Beans Is. per quarter dearer. Oats unaltered in BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, JANvAity 13. During the present week there has been less anxiety to pur chase Wheat, though an advance .of Is. to 2s. per quarter may, in some instances, have been obtained. Malting 43arley held for an improvement of 3s. to 45. per quarter, Which checked the sale. Beans and Peas Is. to 2s. per quarterdearer. For Oats Is. to 2s. per quarter more money obtained. HULL -CORN MARKET, JANUARY 12. At this day's 'market we had a show df Wheat from the farmers, but -chiefly in bad condition. High and irregular prices were asked, but on the business doneve quote 2s. to 3s. per quarter aavance. A similiar advance was asked on free foreign, but the transactions were but limited. For Spring Corn there was a good inquiry. Barley 'very scarce, and 2s. to 3s. per quarter higher. Oats Is. to 2s. 'dearer, and a similar advance paid on Beans and Peas. LINTIMPOOL CORN EXCM'%_NGE, JAN. 12. The importsN;eei'sl 3 large oneof Flour and Indian Corn, ehiltt the exports chiefly to Ireland continue on a liberal scale, and the demand for the two first-named.articles for our local consumption, as well as that of the interior, seems to have materially increase d o f l ate weeks, , reainst our diminished ability to meet it. From Friday last we have had a continued extensive demand for Wheats and Flour, both free and in bond, to dealers and specule.t.ors, at further improving rates; and to-day we have a confirmed advance of 6d. per 701 b. on the former, upon a large sale of all descriptions.—Bonded Flour commands active atteition, and 425. per barrel - readily obtainable for prime Western Canal. Free Flour saleable at a corresponding amend ment, for both sacks and barrels. . • We must again quote higlier4a Ines for Malting Barley and Malt 35., English iteims and _Pease 2s. per quarter, and grind ing Barley 3d. to 41,_per 60ibs:.over the termsof this day week, each being in fair request. Oats were also taken more freely, bringing Id. per bushel more, but Oatmeal rem a i ne d unvaried in - price, having scarcely anything on hand. Indian Corn has advanced Is. to 2s. per quarter, and the market pretty well -cleared. Meat, '44 701 b.

The supplies of -the last three days, taken altogetherare quite insignificant, ,a few parcels of Beans and Indian Cern constituting the bulk of our arrivals, not a barrelof Flourbeing reported from the United States or Canada ; upon a steady change of wind to the westward, however, we may look-for a fair increase in the quantity of produce from America. By the Boston steamer we have advices from New York to the 31st ult.; except in the remotest markets, where the ac count of advanced prices in England (by the packet of , the 4th December) had not , reached, renewed activity prevailed in the export trade to Great Britain at improved values for all Grain and Flour ; the orders for Indian Corn were upon an extensive scale, but the itocksof old were too much reduced tasupply them, and the new was hardly in condition to ship; this, with the,scarcity of tonnage and advanced freights, had checked further immediate shipments to a large extent,•while the de clining rate of 4axclinago had co-operated generally, in prevent ing so great an advance in produce as appeared to hawarranted by the advices received from this side. The export from New York to Great Britain, from the 11th to the 26th December, inclusive, was, of Flour 79,393 barrels ; Wheat, 106,970 bushels; Indian Corn, 118,458 iniehels ; Indian Meal, 10,677 barrels. • The trade here, in the interval from Tuesday, has•continued active for Wheatand Flour, and still higher rates paid.for the latter in bond. This morning's market was not so generally excited as some we have had occasion - to notice of late, still a good business was effected in Wheats for local and country consumption, some quantity waa taken for Ireland, and seveml large parcels of bonded on speculation, in aa which transactions 2d. per bushel over Tuesday's rates was realised.—Free FlourAwas held at Is. per sack and barrel advance, but did not sell readily ; bonded parcels were,- however, again parted to a large extent, both on the spot and to arrive, at that amendment, 43s..vbeing easily made for Western Canal. Beans and Prase- ware held for ls. higher.--In Barley and Malt no alteration, little of either being on sale.--Of Oats the market is nearly bare, and fine qualities were about 2d. en hanced in value; some fine Dutch brought as high as 6€. per 451b.—Oatmeal nominally dearer. Indian Coin must& quoted is.. to 3j. per quarter higher; few parcels now remain on sale. '"v LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, JANUARY 18. We have had a smaller supply of stock at our market to-day than last week, nearly the whole of which was sold at little or no alteration from our late statement. Beef, sicl. to 64d. per lb. ; Mutton, bid. to 74d. per lb. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, darn: 'l6.

MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, JANUARY 16. Great firmness and confidence continue to characterise the corn trade, and there has been a steady demand for each article during the week at gradually advancing rates. At our market to-day there is but a scanty display of samples of any article. Wheat is full 4d. per bushel higher. Flour meets a steady sale at an improvement of 2s. per sack, but it may be remarked that this applies more to the good, secondary, and lower qualities, than to the best descriptions. Oats 2d. to 3d. Or bushel, and Oatmeal ls. per load dearer, and scarce any of either. offering. Malt is held for advanced rates. Beans are Is. to 25., and boiling• Peas 3s. to 4s. per quarter higher. Stocks of free Wheat and Flour are rapidly decreasing, and the greatest confidence in prices is evinced not only in the markets of our own neighbourhood, but in the agricultilral districts. MARKETS FOR MANUFACTURES. MANCHESTEII.—The silk market still continues very dull, though no alteration has taken place in prices. Only a limited demand has been experienced for Cotton this week, spinners being very unwilling to operate, except at reduced rates. In deed, in many instances, a decline of Id. to gd. has taken pTace from the prices -current at the close of last week. The Cambria brings increasing estimates of the receipts at the shipping ports of the states, which, however, has had no material effect upon the mat ket. - Rociinal.a.---We had a somewhat better market this week than on the previous Monday, and for some sorts of tine and middle qualities a shade higher prices were obtained, but this was by no means general. Low descriptions and coloured flannels were dull, with prices unaltered. Wool, in some in stances, a•sliade higher, but manufacturers would only pur chase for present use. LEEDS:—The public-markets this week have not been so well attended by buyers as were those of the preceding week; nor has there been much business done in the warehouses. We understand that pretty large deliveries of Spanish Stripes, iSr.c., forthe4ndia and China markets have taken place during the last week or two ; and many of the larger manufacturers being fully employed in making to order, prevents their overstocking the market with other description of goods ; and in conse quence stocks are lower than might have been expected. Prices remain without alteration. HUDDERSFIEL]).—A very fair amount of business has been done-in our market this week, and -prices are, if anything, a shade lower than they recently were. Stocks are not heavier than usual at this period of the year. " IaLIFAX.—PIECE.—Our market this week has been, upon 'the whole, a flat one. Although more goods have been sold, no better priceshave been obtained. YARNS, WOOLS, &C.—There is only a very limited demand, the price of Wool being very firm. Some parties are of opinion that Wool will be lower. 'BRADFORD.—WOOL.—The transactions during the week 'have been very dull, the recent advance having put a check to business. Noils and Brokes, firm the diminished quantity now making, are ready for sale at4m . proved prices. YARNS. — This branch of our trade continues in the same state as we have noticed for some time back. Wool continues very firm, and latterly higher prices demanded, while the spinners cannot get any corresponding increase in prices for Yarns. Low qua htiec, from 28 to 36's, are much inquired after, but required at such seriously low prices that there is no disposition to increase the production, which, from the great quantity of totally un employed machinery, and others working short time only, must be far less than at any period since 1837, and without a decided advance on Yarns, there is no prospect of our 'oper atives being better employed, - which is much to be regretted at this inclement season of the year. PIECE.—The year has opened with a fair business doing in plain goons, such as Or leans and Paramattas, and both last Thursday and to-day the sales have been greater than' the quantity at present brought to market, a continuance- of which will, and must, tell on prices, which are now favourAle to the buyers.

This great work of art, which we mentioned in our last; publication as about to be exhibited in Liverpool, is now on view at Mr. Grundy's repository of art, Church -street. Many of our readers will, doubtless, remember it as forming the principal attraction of the Exhibition of the Royal Academy, last season, and will be glad to have an opportunity of renewing their acquaintance with it. It is, we think, the greatest work of its great master, and will, whilst it endures, be one of the most conspicuous glories of British art. The subject of the picture is a noble stag, which hits " taken the water " in a highland lake, where he has been brought "to bay " by a couple of deer-hounds. The • more daring of them has already fallen a victim to his rashness, and lies in the agonies of death at the feet of his • antagonist, on whose left brow-antler a tuft of hair tells the tale of his prowess. The other hound being of a more prudent valour, and warned by the fate of his companion, bays the victor at a very discreet distance. Nothing that we have ever seen in art surpasses the attitude and expression of the Stag. He stands in the calm dignity of conscious power, his head thrown up w ith an air of defiance, that w on ld be scornful were it less kingly. Knowing his own power and his assailants feeble ness, he magnanimously forbears to attack,—yet knowin,,s also his foe's insidious cruelty, he maintains a dignified position of defence. Landseer has ever been famous for great skill in the technical qualities of art. Fine drawing, a singularly faithful representation of texture, brilliant and harmonious colouring, consummate composition, and arrangement of light and shade, and, above all, a power to animate his figures, and endue them with those subtle traits of ex pression anl charatt that constitute the individuality of living beings. In this work, however, we have the manifestation of a much higher power. He has inspired the mere " brute creature " with a moral sentiment truly sublime; and the vigorous impress of this on the canvass is the last triumph of art. The calmness which always accompanies con scious power, and the forbearance to retaliate outrage on the vanquished, which .only the truly great and naturally pacific can practice, and indomitable will pr .wailing even over physical weakness, seems to us the central idea of the work. And with what consummate art is this placed most prominently .before the mind ! The head of tbe stag, with its noble crown of antlers, is the most carefully elaborated part of the picture ; and, to increase its force, it is placed in strong relief against the lightest part of the sky, whilst every other part is subor dinate to it, both by a less elaborate handling, and lower power of relief. The character, too, and treatment of the accessaries, further enhance the value of the head's expression. The sky, made up of storm-clouds, flings its gloom on the lake, whose waters are smitten into myriad-waved commotion ; the blast-bowed pines that cover the rocky margin of the lake ; and a solitary eagle called by the storm from its eyrie in the far hills, careers on the tempest, all enhance, by contrast, the calm self possession of the antlered conqueror. The manual treat ment of the work is in fine harmony with the sublimity of the subject. All is broad, facile, and full-toned. Considered as a whole, it is undisputably one of the most epic pieces of " animal." painting in existence ; and whe ther we regard its technical or iesthetical excellence, is deserving of the careful study of both critic and con-• noisseur. The picture is being engraved, we perceive, by Tho mas Landseer, the brother of the painter, who, judging from the spirited etching exhibited with the picture, has caught the inspiration of his subject. We .understand also, that the painter, esteeming this his greatest work, retains an interest in the engraving, the only instance of )iis doing so. It will thus have a singular interest, as being wholly a production of that gifted family. We hold every great artist to be a public benefactor, and doubtless all who either honour genius, or feel gratitude for great public services, will manifest their sentiments by subscribing to the work. EFFECTS OF FOUL A/R. — The purity of the air we breathe; is quite as important as the wholesomeness of the food we eat. When air is loaded with putrid gases, from decaying animal and veg etable substances, it becomes an actual poison. When the air is very, foul indeed, it has been known, in some few instances, to destroy life in an instant ; and very often fatal disease is brought on by .exposure to such air, even for a short time. But the general effect of impute air is the gradual diminution of health and strength, not producing actual disease, but. rather that tendency to disease which renders every sick ness with which a person may be attacked, more severe, more unmanageable, and more frequently fatal.—Witn are Towns Unhealthy ? JW;EFII'S BODY BORNE FROM EGYPT. — Through what a land of poetry and peril was the dead body of Joseph brought out of Egypt ! What painter is there bold enough to grapple - with such a subject ? Amid all the plagues of Egypt, there stood the coffin, ready to be borne away-'-in the deep darkness which overshadowed the land it has not forgotten : the pillar of fire flashed upon it by night, and by. day it moved slowly behind the pillar of cloud: through the Red Sea it was carried between that high and terrible wall of waters, which, when it had passed, rolled hack and became the grave of the haughty Egyptians. Through storm and battle, and the perils of the wilder ness, and the thunder which shook Mount Sinai was the body of that dead man borne. When Moses held up his wearied arm and conquered Amalek, it was still there. On the waves of war it was washed to the Promised Land : it followed the Ark of God when Jordan was divided, and was at last buried in the field of Shechem, in the ground which Jacob had long before purchased of the sons of 'lemon—Pictures oj: a Country Life, by Thos. Miller • A REGATTA'AND AIR AT AtISTERDAM.—The water races went off most brilliantly • but you must look i n th e Amsterdam pape rs t o see who won and who lost, the prizes not being dangerously heavy in amount Generally speaking, as no one from Deptford is overlooking me-=-1. may venture to say that the speed of the Dutch boa ts , which we have been always used to consider safe, but slow, amazed me. Th e y seeme d b r i sk as well as ma nag e- - able. These yacht club s p or t s are new to the Amst erti6aut gentry. How odd it is, by the way, considering oarre - - potation for being the grumpiest nation under the suni-to • see how the terms of English sports are universally natu;-- ralised into foreign languages ! Club has become a cos mopolite word ' • the French hav e l a id h o ld of j9ckey: and here was the Dutch announcement so f u ll of Thames lan guage that I could make it out ! But more, no foreign fair now seems complete without an English clown. I saw the name of one (I forget it now), flaunting away in the bills of the fair at Bergamo, in 1845 ; and here is " Mr. Lavater Lee's company" in ell its glory, with dancing on the tight rope and slack wires ; and the first talent of England " induced to appear at a prodigious expense !" Among the riders, topers, and grinners through a horse collar, advertised, are Messrs. Keats and Macready ! And (as the world goes) many a fair matron and maid of Amsterdam will sleep the better for liming contented her Anglomania; since, should she cross, on some future day, the name of our great actor that was—or of our greatest that is—she can give her opinion thereupon as compla cently as Goldsmith'e Tenterden lady, —on the strength of "Mr. Lavater Lee's" booth ! Thus, too often, are made up our judgments of each other all the world over. The more one travels, the more cautious one feels in criticising foreign opinions and usages.—Abel Painter's " Sketches in the Lox Countries." in the People's Journal.
