THE HARVEST.

So much of national prosperity depends upon the
abundance of the harvest, that it is gratifying to notice
the really beautiful weather with which Providence
has lately blessed the nation. It has come at what
may be called the latter end of the harvest ; but it
must be remembered that this is of the greater im-
portance, inasmuch as it is the late districts which
ordinarily suffer most from unfavograble weather. It
has enabled the farmers to get in their corn in the
best possible condition, and at the same time to banish
those apprehensions which were at one time enter-
tained of the re-appearance of disease in the potato
crop. The latter esculent enters largely into the food
of the population, and whatever may be the statements
made by those whose interests are to keep up prices,
the public may judge for themselves of their falsity
by the quality of the potatoes which they consume.
These are notoriously what is called mealy, and it is a
well-known fact that the tendency of the disease is to
injure or destroy this quality ; so that it may confi-
dently be assumed that this crop has not been in better
condition since the first appearance of this mysterious
disorder about nine years ago. The effect Vial neces-
sarily be to diminish the consumption of wheat ; and as
the latter article has been kept at a high price, owing
to the demands for the continent, where the harvest,
though late, is new being gathered in good condition,
we may reasonably anticipate that recent high prices,
which have already begun to give way, will very shortly
be considerably reduced.
The reports from America concur in representations
of a most abundant yield of the wheat harvest, and the
price of flour in the New York market has very ra-
pidly fallen. The downfal of the Russian power in the
Black Sea will open the resources of the Danube for
large supplies from that quarter ; se.that, with our own
harvest, which is now acknowledged by competent
authorities to be above an average, in addition to the
much greater breadth of land in wheat, there ought
to be no Tears as to a sufficiency ef food for the popu-
lation. The fine weather will have added materially
to the resources of the country, enabling us so much
the better to bear the heavy burdens rendered neces=
sary by the war ; and even the pressure on the money
market will not be without a good effect, because it
will impose a wholesome restriction on the operations
of mere speculators, who look for their gains from 1
national distress.

CATTLE.

LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 24.—The supplies of cattle and sheep at
this day's market have been rather smaller, and there was a poor
attendance of buyers. Prime qualities of beef and mutton barely
maintained last week's prices, and other descriptions very dull at
a further decline. Beet, 6d to 60; mutton, 6d to 6d. Cattle,
2,358; sheep, 11,832.
SALFORD, SEPT. 19.—Trade was dull at a slight reduction on
last week's prices. A great number left unsold. Best beef, 6d to
7d ; middling, 5d to 50; cows, 40 to 4id ; best wedders, 6d to
7tt ; heavy weights, sid to 6d : ewes, 44d to 40 ; lambs, 6d to 7d ;
calves, 5d to 6.0. Number of beasts, 1,352; sheep and lambs,
8,570; calves, 67.
DUBLIN, SEPT. 20.—There was again a considerable supply,
the demand, however, being confined to prime meat. Middling
and inferior qualities underwent a reduction from this day week,
both as to cattle and sheep. The pig market was brisk at full
prices. Beef, sinking offal, 50s to 60s; prime, and single beasts,
63a per cwt. ; mutton, Sid to 6ici ; veal, 7d to nil per lb; pork,

PROVISIONS.

LIVERPOOL, SEPT. 21.—There is increased firmness and
rather more activity in the market for beef, chiefly in conse-
quence of a government contract (to be tendered for on the 12th
of November) being announced. In the early part of the week
some small parcels of western pork were taken for export, at
former rates, but since the announcement of the government con-
tract, holders have advanced their prices ; buyers, however, hang
back, purchasing only for immediate wants. Further advanced
prices have again been made for bacon, and the stock is reduced
to a lower point than for several years past. A fair inquiry exists
for lard, and very full prices have been paid, with sales exceeding
150 tons. There is less activity in cheese; but fine qualities still
maintain previous rates. Grease butter is still asked for.
SEPT. 24.—Butter was is very good demand during the past
week, at full prices. The supply is iiberal. Fine qualities are
scarce, and all good and middling descriptions meet with a ready
sale at 98s to 100 s per cwt. landed. Waterford and Dungarvan,
98s to 102 s; Kilkenny, Carrick. Wexford, Clonmel, and Carlow,
98s tO 995; Limerick, 93a to 98s; and Sligo, 94s to 99s per cwt.
landed. Imported from Ireland from the 15th to the 21st instant,
both inclusive, 13,633 firkins, 100 kegs, 331 crocks, 278 boxes, and

PnonucE.---There has been great activity in the
Sugar market, at prices in favour of the eon Pr. and a
large quantity has changed hands. Molasses has
been eagerly bought at an advance of 2s. per cwt.
For Coffee an excellent demand at ls. to 2s. per cwt.
higher prices. Tea in steady request for ordinary
qualities, but fine more difficult of sale. In Rice no
alteration to notice, but a fair business done at steady
prices. Rum has brought full rates. In Palm Oil a
further advance. Tallow in limited request, without
change in prices ; P.Y.C., 595. to 60s. per cwt. To-
DAY, there has been a steady market for Sugar, and a
strong speculative inquiry has prevailed, resulting in
the sale of 900 mats and 200 tons Mauritius, to arrive,
the latter chiefly at 28s. 6d ; 3,500 bags Pernams on
the spot at 275. 9d. to 28s. 3d., with 2,600 bags, to
arrive, chiefly at 28s. for brown, and 295. 3d. per cwt.
for low white, all in bond. 200 tons Cuba Muscovado
Molasses, for arrival, have been purchased at 235. per
cwt., and 40 puncheons Porto Rico Rum, on the spot,
at s. 7d. per gallon. There continues a very good
inquiry for Coffee, nearly 800 bags Rio being reported
at 395. 6d. for low to 455. per cwt. The Tea market
is not active, owing to the shortness of supplies
available for the wants of the trade. There
has been an excited inquiry for Rice, and the
transactions are extensive, comprising 8800 bags
Bengal at 15s. 6d. to 16s. 4d., with 50 tons broken,
to arrive, at 145., 28,500 bags Arracan, chiefly old,
from 12s. to 12s. 9d., and 350 tons, to arrive, at 12s. 9d.
to 12s. 101 d. per cwt. At auction, 60 tons Jamaica
Log wood brought £5 12s. 6d., a small lot of Jamaica
Fustic £5 17s. 6d., and 25 tons Nicaragua Wood £l3
per ton. 150 tons Calcutta Linseed, for arrival, are
reported at 735. per quarter, c. f. and i.

WOOL.-- -There has been a fair business doing in
Levant and Mediterranean Wools, but the smallness
of stocks continues to be a great drawback to any
large operations. Several sales of Egyptian Wool
have been made, to arrive, at very firm prices, and the
market is barely supplied with this description, a.swell as
the finer classes of Turkey Wools, which are still much
wanted for the army orders now in progress. Donskoi
is also rather more inquired for ; but, although stocks
are very light, we cannot quote any improvement in
this description. The imports for the week are 1,562
bales Peruvian, 1,360 East India, 616 Mediterranean,
220 Portugal, 146 Iceland, 88 Buenos Ayres, 57 Aus-
tralian, 8 Jamaica, 18 Scotch, 17 Irish, and 10 Coast-
wise; total, 4,101 bales,

DR. AN T R OBUS'S PERSIAN HAIR
d
RESTORATIVE, AND HAIR DYE.
These Articles are without doubt the most extraordinary in their
Under
powers t 11 em i
ever m
submitted e
to be appreciated, admired, and continued.
The RESTORATtVE strengthens the hair and prevents it
falling off after every other means have been resorted to unsuc-
cessfully ; it cures baldness and creates a natural curl, and by
its use myriads of persons of both sexes are indebted to having a
good head of hair at the present moment. Its efficacy is therefore
undoubted, and the whole world is challenged to produce an
article to equal it, either for beautifying the human hair or pre-
serving it to the latest period of life. For the production of
Whiskers or Moustache it is infallible.
The qualities of the HAIR DYE are decidedly superior to any-
thing of the kind ever attempted, and the whole surface of the
head can be changed into a most natural black or brown, within
five minutes after using it, so as to defy detection from the greatest

' as the Russians have nothing remaining to them but
the few forts on the north side of Sebastopol harbour,
and their means of receiving supplies must have been
considerably shortened since the destruction of the
large depOts in the Sea of Azoff. It is said that there
is more than one way open to the Allies to follow up
their victory, and it is rumoured that detachments of
troops have been sent to intercept the anticipated
retreat of the Russian army. Nothing positive, how-
ever, is known, and we must be content to wait until
the detail of some fresh exploit shall be received, with
additional zest, because unexpected. We have, at
least, the satisfaction of knowing that the great
obstacle to final triumph has been removed ; that
Russia, whether she will acknowledge it or not, has
received the heaviest blow which she has ever been
called upon to endure ; that her influence in the Black
Sea has been demolished; and that a further continu-
ance of the war must only lead to her further prostra-
tion. The Allies have the game in their hands, and
it would now be folly to relax their exertions until
Russia has been compelled to sue for peace, and con-
cede all the demands which the alteration of affairs
would justify.

TELEGRAPHIC DESPATCHES.

The Paris Moniteur of Thursday announces that the Mi•
nister of War has received the following telegraphic despatches
rom Marshal Pelissier

SEBASTOPOL, Sept. 17.
In their work of destruction the enemy respected the docks
(which are magnificent constructions), the establishments in
the vicinity, the barracks of Fort Nicholas and the Quarantine
Fort. - _ _

_
The Anglo-French Commission appointed to draw up a re-
turn of the materiel left by the Russians at Sebastopol has
commenced its labours. The result may be summarily stated
as follows :

We have found in the town about 4,000 cannon, 50,000
cannon balls, a few hollow projectiles, a large quantity of
grape, a great amount of gunpowder (despite the explosions),
600 anchors (half of which are excellent), 25,000 kilogrammes
of copper, two steam-engines of 30-horse power, a considerable
number of masts sawn in two for defensive purposes (blind-
ages).

,
SEBASTOPOL, Sept. 18.
Our Generals and superior officers wounded are doing as
well as can be expected. There need be no anxiety on their
account. ---

BERLIN, Thursday morning.
The Emperor of Russia has, it is understood, abandoned his
intention of visiting Poland.
It is now said that, accompanied by the three Grand Dukes,
he will proceed to Moscow and Nicolaieff, on his way to the
Crimea.

WAR DEPARTMENT, Sept. 22

Lord Panmure having, in consequence olnumerous inquiries,
asked Gen. Simpson to report upon the condition of the
wounded officers, has received by telegraph, dated the 20th
inst., 8 a.m., a satisfactory account of their progress towards
recovery.

The Paris Moniteur of Saturday announces that the
Minister cf War has received the following despatch from
Marshal Pelissier

SEBASTOPOL, Sept. 19, 5 p.m.
Of the 4,000 cannon found at Sebastopol at least 50 are of
brass.

Others werethrcmin into the roadstead at the time of the
retreat. I have ordered them to be sought for.
We have already taken 200,000 kilogrammes of powder
away from the place, and there is still more to be found.
The number of projectiles will exceed 100,000.
A despatch from Admiral Bruat, of the same date, an-
nounces that the vessels of the allies destroyed in the Sea of
Azoff, between the 6th and 11th of Sept., five fisheries on the
cost of Semviank, and 68 in the lakes and rivers of the neigh-
bouring coast; they burnt 31 storehouses, containing nets or
provisions, and 98 boats laden with provender and other pro-

Ix St. Ann's parish, New York, the rector has a service in
the afternoon for the deaf and dumb, using the sign-language
which they are taught instead of the voice; and a church
is
projected specially for the purpose. The New York Church-
man says—" For nearly three years this undertaking has been
characterised by gradual yet steady growth, and everything
now connected with it seems to point towards permanent
success. By the side of the proposed church it is designed to
have a building which shall contain a lecture-room, reading.
room, and library, that thus the gratuates of the institutions,
as they settle down in this city to gain their livelihood, may
be encouraged to make advances in intellectual persuits."
THE REV. JAMES MARSHALL, incumbent of Christ Church,
Clifton, who died at that place on the 29th of August, was
brought up a Presbyterian in Scotland, his native land, and
was ordained a preacher in the Establishment to the congre-
gation that met in the nave of the old cathedral chnrch of
Glasgow. He was afterwards presented to the Tolbooth,
Edinburgh, one of the three divisions into which the cathedral
church of that city has been separated. Previous to the great
disruption in the established body, the existing state of things
led him to inquire more deeply into Church polity, which endedanc
in his being convinced of the divine right of Episcopacy,
his breaking his connection with the Scotch Estab

The claims of this society to a liberal measure of public
support are so well known as scarcely to need special advo-
cacy. It has been the great pioneer of civilisation, extending
the knowledge of salvation over the globe. It demands, as we
trust it will receive, the support of all Christians ; and we
have no doubt that the contributions at this anniversary will
not only be worthy of Liverpool, but of the interesting occa-
sionovhen we must feel thankful for the success vouchsafed
to Hi MAJESTY'S arms in the Crimea.
