CATTLE.

LIVERPOOL, JULY 30.—We have a very considerable increase
in supplies of stock at this day's market, with a good attendance
of country buyers. The demand for Beef ruled less active, and
prices in favour of buyers. The supply of sheep and lambs was
the largest by nearly 3,000 ever offered at this market; prices,
consequently, ruled lower than of late. Good mutton and lamb
id and middling id per lb. Beef, 64d to 6id ; mutton, 6d to 7d ;
-lamb, 6d to 7d per lb. Cattle, 1,717; sheep and lambs, 20,953.
SALFORD, JULY 25.—Beef trade steady at former rates.
Sheep sold slowly at id per lb. lower. Lamb sold readPy at full
rates. Best beef, 6id to 7id ; middling, sid to 6d; cows, 4d to 5d ;
best wedders in wool, 6id to 70 ; clipped, 6id to 62d; ewes, 5d
to s#d; lambs, 6d to 7id ; calves, 5d to 6id. Number of beasts,
741; sheep and lambs, 10,274; calves, 120.
DUBLIN, JULY 26.—Short supply, and prices very brisk from
the attendance of London dealers and butchers—prices are now
the highest yet had. Beef, 60s to 68s; top, single beasts, 705 per
cwt, in sink. Mutton, 6id for ewes, to 7d per lb. for wedders;
lambs, 6d to 7d ; veal, lid to 8d per lb. Nothing whatever to

" An easy, pleasant fitting Hat, ventilated on a new and
correct principle."—Practscal Mechanics' Journal.

The only Hat which combines a light, gentle-
manly appearance, with thorough ventilation, advantages
obtained by forming an air chamber immediately around
the head, permitting a current of air to pass imperceptibly
or without draught, from thence through and out at the
top of the flat; and the value of this principle is best ap-
preciated when walking, riding, and in all cases where
continued exercise renders the ordinary Hat both un-
healthy and cumbersome.

Valuable BUILDING SITES, Modern RESIDENCE, and Two
Semi-detached VILLAS, in the Hamlet of THINGWALL, near
ROBY, in the Parish of WEST DERBY. _ ..............

M„__ES
SRS. THOS. WINSTANL EY and SONS are
instructed by the Proprietor to SELL by AUCTION, on
THURSDAY next, the 2nd day of August, at Half-past One, for
Two o'clock precisely, at the Clarendon-rooms, South John-street,
subject to such conditions as may then be produced,
Several important and eligible Plots of BUILDING LAND,
in the much-admired and beautiful Hamlet of Thingwall. The
Plots, as shown on the Plan, are all delightfully situated, and
most pleasantly adapted for the purposes of building single or
detached Villas, and are surrounded in part by the Land of the
Earl of Derby, in other part by the tastefully laid-out Grounds of
Samuel H. Thompson, Esq., of Thingwall-hall, and of John Dug.-
dale, Esq., of Dovecote. Also, a Detached modern RESIDENCE,
called " ASHFIELD-HOUSE;" and Two Semi-detached VILLAS,
which have been recently erected, at considerable outlay, in Pilch-
lane, Roby. A part of the above Property, Ashfield-house, is a well
built, convenient, and commodious Residence, with Stabling,
Coach-house, Sitippon, Barn, &c., and fitted up with Hot and Cold
Baths, is well supplied with Spring and Rain Water : the Grounds
are tastefully laid out, and are at present in the occupation of the
Rev. G. F. Green.

The semi-detached Villas are finished in the best style, have a
similar accommodation in Baths, Water, &c., and are kept pur-
posely unoccupied for the accommodation of Purchasers.
The Property is within fifteen or twenty minutes' walk from
the Roby and Broad-green Station; four miles and a-half from
the town of Liverpool ; and from the increasing demand for Resi-
dences in this attractive and healthy neighbourhood, this oppor-
tunity will be found a most desirable one, either for the invest-
ment of capital or for parties wishing to build in a retired pleasant
locality. There is a good supply of Clay and Sand for Building
purposes on the Land.
The whole may be inspected any day previous to the Sale, and
further particulars and Plans may be had on application to Mr.
SMITH, 20, Church-street; SEPTIMUS BOOKER, Esq., 46, Castle-
street; Mr. HENRY SUMNER, Architect. Royal Institution;

Mr. E. begs to state thar, in producing a really good Daguer-

stances are required, deprived of which the Art sinks to the
insignificance justly belonging to the very many wretched dis-
torted abortions, claiming the name of Photographs, and are to
be seen in almost every street.
Mr. E.'s long practice in the above Art has resulted in the pro-
duction of Portraits as much superior to the ordinary Photograph
as the leading artist is to the street miniature painter.

on
her marrying another man ; and an evening was appointed on
which the gentleman was to be formally introduced as her
suitor. Lady Caroline, whose affections the dashing states-
man had secretly engaged, was at her wit's end to know how
to baffle this interview. She had evaded the choice of the
family as long as possible, but this appointment looked like a
crisis. The gentleman is to come in the evening ; the lady is
to prepare for his. reception by a more than ordinary attention
to her toilet. This gives her the cue to what is to be done. The
more than ordinary attention is paid ; but it is in a way that
rerders the interview impossible. She has cut off her eye-
brows. How can she be seen by anybody in such a trim?
The indignation of the duke and duchess is great ; but the
thing is manifestly impossible. She is accordingly left to her-
self for the night ; she has perfected her plan, in expectation
of that result ; and the consequence is, that when next her
parEnts inquire for her, she has gone. Nobody can find her.
She is off for Mr. Fox.

IVERPOOL ROYAL INFISMARY.---It is
with much regret that the Committee fitd themselves com-
pelled to make an urgent APPEAL to the Pubic on behalf of this
Institution. Owing to the serious diminution in the Income, from
a falling off in Donations and Legacies,which amounted,in 185 2;
t 0.2.219 ; 1853,e1,315; 1854,775; andthehighpricesofalt

of nearly El ,400, which is daily increasing, from :he same causes
being still in operation. Unless this be checked by timely suc-
cour, no alternative will be left but to curtail the Relief hitherto
afforded to the Sick and Disabled Poor of the community; a
course much to be deprecated, and one from which t4e Committee
hopefully trust the Public will spare them the necessity of re-
sorting.

GENTLEMEN,---The Safe you fixed here some
years ago has, indeed, proved a good one, and done
gond service. Last week some thieves broke into our office, and
tried their hands upon your Safe. First they seem to have used
their crowbars, and then gunpowder, but both proved vain : for
Money, Bills, and Deeds were all safe enough in your " Safe," and
under your lock and key. We have great pleasure in informing
you of this, of which you can make any use you please.—We are,
Gentlemen, your obedient servants.

to located that they cannot conveniently procure the mann-
fictured superphosphate of lime—others, who could obtain i t
madily are fearful of putting a spurious or adulterated article.
ani many others who would make it themselves if they knew
exactly how to set about it. I have seen several direction's at
various times, and in various publications, but they have
lacked precision, and omitted some point or other in the
maul ulation of more or less importance. Raving given the

IRELAND.

REMITTANCES FROM FROM AMERICA.-Notwithstanding the di-
minution of the emigration drain from Ireland, the influx to
Ireland, of American money, is on the increase. In 1853, the
amount of money sent home by Irish emigrants was £1,439,000;
but, in 1834, it reached £1,730,000.
JUDGE JACKSON, in addressing the grand jury at the Lime-
rick county assizes, said that, during forty years' experience
of the Munster circuit, both as a practising barrister and a
judge, he never knew such light calendars. Limerick city can
boast on this occasion of a maiden assize, there not being a
single case for trial.
REFORMATION IN DUBLIN.—On the 20th instant, four
persons renounced the errors of Romanism under the instruc-
tion of a reformed priest of the " Priests' Protection Societ "
and made and signed the usual declaration in such cases.
One
of them had been a noviciate in the Jesuits' College at Rome
y,
for the last six years, and intended for a priest of that order.
MR. JOHN DALTON, an architect, and who had hitherto
borne a most irreproachable character, was convicted at the
Clonmel assizes of forging the name of the Marquis of Water-
ford to three bills for £1,300, and negotiating the same.
Strong affidavits in mitigation of punishment were put in, and
the court, having given them a favourable consideration, com-
muted the prisoner's sentence to four years' penal servitude.
THE HARVEST.—The broken weather of the past week
appears so far to have done no damage to the cereal or green
crops. Indeed, competent judges affirm that even more rain
would be rather serviceable than otherwise. Friday there
were several heavy showers, accompanied by a gale of wind
and frequent peals of thunder and vivid flashes of lightning.
Saturday's agricultural reports from the provinces are fully
as favourable as those of the previous week. The potato holds
its ground, and there is not a solitary complaint of the appear-
ance of the fatal blight. Already the markets are teeming
with this year's produce, and the price is such as to place
new potatoes of the best quality within the reach of the hum-
blest consumer.
EMIGRATION FROM IRELAND.—Notwithstanding the pros-
pect of an abundant harvest, and the comparative prosperity
of the agricultural classes, the emigration from several quaer:srs.
The Clare Journal, of Monday, says:—"We ollse
mania has
of Ireland is proceeding almost as rapidly as in fornirveer,
ywith
some surprise and regret, that the emigration

THE FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET.

The favourable change in the weather had a good effect on
English Funds, and Consols rallied per cent. In Railways
heavy stocks were affected by a pressure of sales. Great
Western, London and North Western, Midland, and Lanca-
shire show a decline; Great Northern and Brighton are, how-
ever, a degree better. Land and Bank Shares are supported,
and show an upward tendency. Foreign securities are
generally firm.

LITERARY EXTRACTS.

THE FIRST OYSTER EATER.-It has often been
said tha,l he must have been a bold man who first ate
an oyster. This is in ignorance of the legend which
assigns the first act of oyster-eating to a very natural
cause It is related that a man walking one day
pickal up one of these savoury bivalves just as it was
in tle act of gaping. Observing the extreme smooth-
ness of the -interior of the shells, he insinuated his
firer between them, that he might feel their shining
sirface, when suddenly they closed upon the exploring
(*it, with a sensation less pleasing than he antler-
rated. The prompt withdrawal of his finger was
scarcely a more natural movement than its transfer.
It is not very clear why people, when they hurt their
fingers, put them into their mouths ; but it is very
certain that they do ; and in this case the result was
most fortunate. The owner of the finger tasted oyster
juice for the first time, as the Chinaman in Elia's essay,
having burned his finger, first tasted cracklin. The
savour was delicious ; he had made a great discovery;
so he picked up the oyster, forced open the shells,
banqueted upon their contents, and soon brought
oyster-eating into fashion. And, unlike most fashions,
it has never gone, and is never likely to go, out.—

The only Hat which combines a light, gentle-

obtained by forming an air chamber immediately around
the head, permitting a current of air to pass imperceptibly
or without draught, from thence through and out at the
top of the flat; and the value of this principle is best ap-
preciated when walking, riding, and in all cases where
continued exercise renders the ordinary Hat both un-
healthy and cumbersome.

SCIENCE AND ART.

Mu. Jour( B. GREEN E, son of an American banker, has suc-
ceeded, notwithstanding the difficulties attendant on clearing
away the palace of Medinet Habora, in discovering the cele-
brated Egyptian calendar of which Champollion could only
copy the first lines. A cast of this monument was taken on
the spot by means of a particular kind of composition. Dif-
ferent colossal figures, the upper parts of which were only
visible, have been now cleared away, and brought to light ; one
of them in excellent preservation shows the features of Rameses
111., and is about sixty feet high. The excavations of Mr.
Greene, which have just completely made known one of the
most important edifices of Pharaonic Egypt, will, by the nu-
merous inscriptions which they furnish, throw fresh light on
different points of Egyptian philology.
THE GAME AND PLAICE OF THE CHESSE.—Mr. Vincent
Figgins, well known as a typefounder, has done a very grace-
ful and well-meant thing for the benefit of the Printers' Alm-
houses, at Tottenham. He has reproduced, in black letter,
cast by himself, and imitated from Caxton's type, our first
printer's treatise on " The Game and Playe of the Chesse."
Of this work, it is known that Caxton printed two editions—
one with the date 1474, and the other without a date, but orna-
mented with various quaint and rude, but forcible illustrative
woodcuts—the general character of which was imitated in Dib-
din's imperfect facsimiles. Mr. Figgins has engraved all the
