Thuniday.- There was a very large supply
of cattle at the market to-day. considerably exceeding
the quantity at the two previous m kets. There was
an unusually large number of Irish cat.:e, including
risen, heifers, and sheep. There was on the whole •
good variety of different qualities of beef, sonic of it of
an excellent description, and the heif,rs were of choice
weights. The sale was sluggish, and a large number
could not be sold. The supply of mutton was alao veq•
large, and the quality was all that could be desired,
there not being many oier-fat sheep. The sale was
tolerably brisk, and but comparatively few were left
unsold. There was • great market of cows and calves,
the two stalls appropriated for their sale being quite
full. The sale was brisk, and the prices were very
high, and, of course, varying very conskierably according
to age and condition. There were • few calves sold, but
the demand was and ha. been slack for some time past,
rind consequently but few are brought to market. The
supply of pigs, fat and store, was large, and • fair
amount of basilic-gra transacted. There were not
any very heavy fat pigs, the majority b. ing of medium
sire. The prices remained as last week. There were
but few hones, and but little was done. Prices

THE PANIC AT TRINITY CHURCH,
BRIDGWATER.

It will be in the recollection of our readers that on Sunday
week greet alarm was occasioned in Trinity Church on
account of • mound resembling that of • fearful rent
underneath being heard in the gallery. The pastor,
desirous of ascertaining the cause, and of easing the
minds of his parishioners of fear of serious isonsequences,
Issued a notice, requesting them to meet him and the
ohnrehwardenc in the lamed edifice, in order that the
report of Mr. Hetehings, who surveyed the structure,
might be so far publicly read, and the advisability of •
careful examination be considered. Accordingly on
Thursday morning several persons weeded their way to
the church to attend the proposed meeting. Them
having assumed a settled aspect, on the motion of Mr.
J. L &ALT, the &v. Mr. Dela Hook waa requested to
take the chair.

The CHAIRMAN said the congregation last Sunday
were exceedingly alarmed in the gallery, aod under
those circumstances he had thought fit to issue a bilL
(The notice concerning the meeting was then read.) He
thought, however, that something more than that should
be done, and that the meeting should have mate in-
formation— correct if possible—upon the matter. He
therefore sent to Mr. Martin to forward the report of
Yr. Flutchinp on examining the church.
From the report it appeared that a careful examina-
tion had been made, and Mr. Hatchings stated that on
proceeding round the structure he toned that the side
walls had gone out of the perpendicular. The stone-
work was in good condition, with the exception of a few
creeks. In the interior the side beams of the gallery
had started from the wall, end some ot the iron pillars
were oat of the perpendicular. He recommended that
bars of iron should be placed right through the church,

RP EXPRESS rf ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.

(FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.)

m. arrivals of English wheat splo our markets,
during the past week, have been oa a limited stale,
and the demand for both red and white qualities has
ruled steady, at an advance in the quotations of from Is.
to 24 per quarter. Tu. imports of foreign wheat
having been small, the show of samples has fallen off,
and all kinds have *old somewhat freely, at fully Is per
quarter above prevents .reek's currency. Malting barley
has changed hands eomeebat briskly, at extreme cur-
rencies ; bet grinding and distilling sorts, owing, in
110131111 mowers. to their abundance, have met aglow sale,
at late rates. The malt trade has continued in a healthy
state. In prime, however, very little change has !aeon
g= Fine Data have advanced Ad per quarter; but
temples have commanded very little attention.
Beam have realised Is per quarter more money, and
the same amount of improvement has been obtained for
peas. The transactions have been far from numerous.
The sale for both English and foreign flour has been
moderately
__active, and American qualities have
advanced fully 6d per barrel, making the rise from the
Lowest point about 2.64 per barrel.
The markets on the Continent have been Arm for
most descriptions of w beat, and prices have had an upward
tendency. Spring corn and flour have commanded
more attention, with a fair consumptive demand. The
latest advice. from New York bring less activity in the
demand for breadstuff..
The Scotch marketa have been moderately Arm for
wheal and most other kinds of produce. and Priem,
almost generally, have shown a tendency to advance.
In Ireland, One wheat, barley, and oats have pro-
duced rather more money, with • good trade. All other
articles, however, have met a dull sale, at late rates.

LATENT lITATI OF Till DURUM
COllll. —The supplies of grain, both home and foreign,
have been moderate, and the market is proportionably
firm, with an upward tendency. The finer descriptions
of English anil foreign wheat fetched a somewhat
higher figure than this day week. Barley is about the
same as lamb week. Oats very firm at late rates.
CATFUL —The supplies upfrom Essex and the Midland
Counties have been limited. The market being short
the beet soils fetched the late high prices, via, Eine*
6e 24 small South-downs, tis 10d. Middling articles
were about the tame as this day week. Veal and pork
were rather firmer.

THE LEATHER TRADE.

(Prom J. Cairn" and Sou's Circular.)

Limns, Wednesday.—The morning being dulland wet
prevented • large attendance at our fair to-day. There
was oleo but • limited eupply of leather. The demand was
about sufficient to clear off moat of the goods brought
forward in the open market at late prima, the principal
inquiries bring for common and shaved hides, calf
skint, and offal. In the warehouses the trade was
not active, but beat Fa I. kip. would have found ready
aide, but were in very short supple. The prices of
foreign butts and binds were • little in favour of the
buyer, but an advance upon offal of all descriptions
was readily obtained. The sale of kip butts have not
been large; for ahoe butts and cordovan there Las been
more inquiry.

TEI LIGHTING OF THE HALL.

The Mayor said the next subject was to consider the
present lighting of the Townhall with • view to its
improvement. He stated that many complaints bad
been made about the insufficient lighting of that place,
and as some improvements were now going on it
would be a good opportunity for making the lighting
more efficisat.—Mr. Coombs surgested that the whole
of the present lights should be removed, and globe
lights substituted. He oonsidered four of them would
give as much light as the present gee in the Hall, whilst
six ghbe lights would afford ample means of illumina-
tion.— After a short discwaion the subject was referred
to the General Purposes Committee for consideration.

A meeting of the Connell was held on Monda7.
Present: the Mayor (.1. Biahow,Fuq.); AldermenGalpn

Mason, and Aldridge.

POLICII RAM

The Watch Committee's report was read and sp-
proved d, and a rate ordered to meet the expenses of
the current yesr of sd. in the pound. This increase vu
owing to the addition of another constable to the present
foree, on the resoinmendation of the Home-onloe, on
the taking of the last census.

was feceived and adopted. It stated that several
alterations had been effected by the committee with
reference to the roof of the Townhall.-11r. Aldridge
complained that such proceedings were irregular, and
ought to have been brought before the Council. He
thought if oommittee's were allowed to effect improve-
ments or make alterations in this manner it would be
establishing a bad prseedent. —Hr. Coombe remmked
that if a committee wee not allowed to carry out such
trifling improvements without the sanction of the
Council, they had better pot it to the right about.--The
Mayor remarked that in a pulshe body emergencies would
arise which would damage the public intercom, and in
that case it wee neemeary that they should be effected
by a committee.

THE lAII TIILD.
The Mayor said a letter had been received from the
Duchy office, which would make it] desirable that the
Council should consider the present state of the market
aud fair ground. The letter was in answer to • resolution
passed at • previous meeting of the Council, in which
the Duchy were invited either to lease or fee them the
present fair ground. It appeared that the Duchy were
disposed to entertain the question, and would give the
Council the opportunity of either leasing or purchasing
the land as they mighl decide. It was, therefore,
advisable that no debt, should take place, but that
immediate steps should be taken for obtaining the
ground. The question now was whether the Council
should memoralise the Dually asking them either to
Lease the ground or sell it. The Mayor then alluded
to the erection of the stalls in the fair ground, and
remarked that they were so far cow pkted as to be occupied
on Batuday. They were filled with stock, and the
parties who used them expressed great approbation at
the convenience afforded. It wouldbe necessary to make
other improvements there, sod that was one reason why
there should be no delay in scouring possession of the
ground.— In reply to • question, Alderman Galpin said
some time ago be, with other gentlemen, inspected some
land, sod a piece was selected between the railway and
she thalea,ead the question was diseased, bet the copy.

move off freely, at extreme rates, and the value of
inferior produce is well supported. The imports are

disgraceful state of the pavements in various parts of
the town, and contended that they, as the trustees of
the town, were not doing their duty in allowing them
to remain in their present oondition.—Mr. Hibbs said
Weymouth was becoming a 'rioter residence for the
aristocracy, and it was time something was done to ice.
prove the condition of the public footways. In order,
however, to entry out that object some money must be
borrowed, and to this course some of the member§ of
the Hoard were in favour, whilst others were not,
wishing that nothing should be done until Mr. Alderman
Eliot had brought forward his dreinage scheme, and
then money could be borrowed for both purposes. The
question, however, was whether that scheme would be
laid before the Board shortly.—The Mayor replied that
Hr. Eliot was only waiting for a little information on
the subject before be submitted his plan.-11r. Drew
said if the plan was adopted it would perhaps be 19
months before it was carried out.

• 13•18r..L. Thursday.- -The market to-day was plentb
fully supplied with beef, thanks to the largi number of
Irish beasts which, owing to their late arrival last
week, were left unsold. Thu quality of the beef, espe-
cially of some of the homebred heifers, IVY excellent,
but the sale was languid. The prices had advanced in
many cases Is per cwt, higher than last week. The
supply of mutton was moderately large, and included
some niomi,ised West Somerset sheep of excellent
quality, but the sale was exceedingly slow, and many
=pital sheep were left unsold. The cows and calves I
were not to numerous as list week, and of moderate
quality, consequently there was • slack sale, and but
few changed hands. The supply of pigs was as usual
large, and of every size cud quality, at exceedingly low
prices. Some very good remitted Berkshire pigs, which
a year or two ago would have fetched 245, were now
offered in vain at 12s, the markets throughout the
tiountly being evidently overstocked with pigs. There
was an average supply of bones, and, several dealers
from the west being present, • number were sold, at
(eonsidering the current rates) moderately high prices.

they descended was a frame, or "cage." which was 'as-
rthy six chains from a hook that was attached to

the shaft the cage, from some sags., tipped up at one
end and the inmates were shot out and precipitated to
the bottom, where they were dashed to pieces.

BOARD 0/ HEALTH.

Mr. Lock called the attention of the Board to a house
in Star -lane, in which fever prevailed, which he said •
medical man had infointed him was owing to the nuis-
ance arising from the stench from Mr. Hayward's
slaughter-house. He (Mr. Lock) therefore thought, u
the guardian* of the health of the town, they should
look into the matter, and endeavour to remedy the evil.
Mr. Coombs said the nuisance was owing to the great
quantity of aniinalsalaughtered, and not becausethe place
was not kept in • clean state. The only thing they could do
would be to indict Mr. Hayward; but before that could
be done a medical man mut state that fever was occa-
sioned by the stench from the slaughter hones. After
some other remarks the Inspector of Nuisances
stated that the slaughterhouse was kept SA clean
as possible, and that the nuisance arose from the
number of animals killed. In the summer time
the stench was awfuL The matter was left over
for further consideration until a report from •
medical man vu received as to the cause of fever in
the lane.—The Inspector reported some shoot nuisances,
which were ordered to bo remediod.—The Surveyor's
report stated that £3B IL 2d. had been expended in
public improveinenta.—The other business was very
unimportant, after disposing of which the Board
dispersed.
