In answer to Mr. ROBERTSON C4LADSTONE,
The TOWN-CLERK said the Surveyor had assured him that
all his'available time had been devoted to the preparation of
the return of the Corporation property, which had been order-
ed some time since; but that it was a work of great labour,
which he could not commit to other hands, and would neces-
sarily take a considerable time to complete.
Mr. Sum, complained of the delay, and made some obser-

AGRICULTURE.

Fisll MANURE.—This subject now taking atten-
tion, in consequence of Professor Way's valuable
practical lecture (aiming, like his other lectures, at
truth and utility, without a thought of exaggeration
or display) I have a few observations to offer on the
question of supply, which seems to have escaped his
attention, In the oil fishery, the elastic whalebone
and the sealskin are also collected; but the carcases
and skeletons are turned. adrift. The seal carcases
will, no doubt, be now converted into manure in New-
foundland, by Messrs. Melon and Co.'s patent ; but
the whale carcases will still float about the ocean, as
food for' sharks and sea vermin. Of the quantity, I
cannot offer a trustworthy estimate ; but if the whalers
(or other ships on purpose) could carry rough bone-
breakers and convenient flesh-presses, these carcases
might be reduced to moderate compass : the press-
dried flesh would be probably half the value of guano,
and the skeleton bones as good as those of other
animals. In the present and increasing demand they
would probably fetch, one with another, £5 per ton,
which might be expected to pay. Then the sharks
themselves, which abound in some seas, and are not
worth fishing for the oil only, might pay in like man-
ner, if the entire carcases also were utilised; and,
whatever their quantity, would be more welcome
ashore than they are now at sea. Porpoises infest our
own coasts, damaginc, the mackarel, pilchard, and
herring fishery, and have been caught for their oil,
but would not pay for harpooning, and are unmanage-
able with nets ; but if the flesh comes for guano, and
the bones for phosphate, beside the oil, they may pay
for harpooning yet, and leave the smaller fish, which
they now destroy or drive away, to pay the net fishery,
and feed our people ashore, as well in the market as
in the increasing products of the soil.—J. PRIDEAUX.

PRODUCE.---The Sugar Market has been firm, parti-
cularly for refining descriptions, and prices are about
6d. per cwt. higher. Coffee in fair demand at full rates.
Little doing in Tea. Rice steady, but prices barely
supported. Rum in small supply. For Palm Oil an
increased demand, the sales being about 2,700 tons, at
£4O 10s. to £4l 10s. per ton. Tallow very firm ;
Petersburg Y.C. ss. to ss. 6d. per cwt. Jute improving.
To-DAY : The scarcity of Sugar in first hands neces-

the sale of 25 hhds. Porto Rico at 38s. to 394, per

about previous rates. No sales have taken place in
Coffee; several parcels of Jamaica will be offered by
auction to-morrow. 130 bags red Bahia Cocoa have
brought 365. per cwt. The Tea market continues
,
inactive, and prices are without change. The

rather of a conflicting character, it appears an admitted fact
that the quantity of useable Fruit will not exceed that of last
season ; and, looking at the great disparity between the stock
on hand now, which is under 400 tons against 1,600 tons at
this time last year, we see just cause to apprehend a great
scarcity may be felt even to meet the demand up to the end of
the year, and as a natural consequence prices may be forced up
far beyond present rates ; so that the present appears a favour-
able time to make safe purchases. A complete stagnation
appears to prevail in Raisins generally, and particularly for
Black, which were in general demand a short time back for
the French market, and purchases may now be made much
below former rates. Valencias show rather a more healthy
appearance, although still in only retail demand : other
descriptions not inquired for. We have lately had a tolerable
supply of Lemons from Sicily, and which have met with a
steady demand at improving prices. Very few Oranges now
now coming in, and a scarceness prevails.
WooL.---We have no alteration to notice in this
market during the week ; the attention being drawn
towards our public sales which commence this day,l
and at which about 6,000 bales, comprising East India,
Egyptian, &c., will be offered. The imports for the
week consist of 155 bales, Mediterranean ; 368 bales,l
Portugal ; 2 bales, United States ; 408 bales, Scotch ;
54 Irish ; and 10 coastwise ; total, 997 bales.
METALS.---There has been a very active demand for
Scotch Pig Iron at improved rates, the latest quota-
tions being 775. per ton for store warrants mixed
numbers f.o.b. at Glasgow. Manufactured Iron has
also been in good demand at a proportionate improve--
ment. Other Metals without alteration. The late

Owing to the entire absence of Speculative operations in
the Market, concurrently with an increase in the Imports,
and a marked improvement in the quality of good Medium
Tea, which has become the more observable as the season
has advanced, we are enabled to call the attention of
Families to the article which can now be furnished at
3/4 per lb.

Although the Duty upon Tea was raised 3d. per lb. in the month
of April this year—still, in consequence of a large Stock of Tea
having been pressed on the Market, which affords a wider scope
for the selection of suitable qualities, we are in a position to
supply Families upon unusually favourable terms.
The EFFECTS OF SPECULATION IN TEA HAVE BEEN LATELY
NO LESS CONSPICUOUS THAN DlSASTROUS:—Notwithstanding
the clearest practical evidence, which has been furnished season
after season, that England, as well as every other country, can
be abundantly supplied with Tea from China, of every quality

by the dire consequences which it has brought upon itself, we may
now for some time anticipate a healthier tone in the Market, and
