MAILLANE, MORoar, August 21.
The arriv of English wheat fresh up to oui market
ig very this morni were only moderate. Amongst them
were 'eve paresis el new from Eases, Kent, and
Suffolk, in middling condition. Fine dry wheats
of last year's growth were, therefore, in fair request, at,
in some instancee, a slight advaoce in the quotations,
compared with Monday last, but new qualities snored off
slowly, at irregular prices. On the whole we may con-
sider the °attendee in favour of buyers. Good sound
foreign wheats were the turn dearer, although the sale
for them was not to say active. Inferior parcels were
dull, at late rates.
111 New English barley realised 325. to 35e. per quarter,.
but its quality • was seoondarY. Old parade self freely,
and prima-bed an up card tendency. Floating 'cargoes
of grain were held for higher rates.
Malt was in full average supply and fair request, at
full quotatione. The supply was seasonably good.
Although the imports of foreign oats have been ex-
tensive, the oat trade was firm, and sound corn pro-
duced 6d. Tar qr. more money.
Beans Were held for higher rates, with a moderate
inquiry. '
New prim, in good condition, were held at 38.5. per qr.
Old foreign were rather dearer.
There was a full aterage business doing both in English
and foreign flour, and the quotations tended upwards.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET, August 21.
The supply of foreign stock in to-day's market was

quality of both beasts and sheep there was a decided ion-
provemeet.
arrivals of beasts fresh up from our owe
&Arleta, as well as from Ireland and Seotland,
, agate limited, and, with very few exceptions,
.c middling condition. Prime Soots, crosses, Devons;
Hereto*, and shorthorns moved off steadily, at In
quotations, the top figure being ss. 44. per 81b. Other-
wise, the beef Ueda was heavy, at barely late rates.
The emir of English sheep was very limited, and the
number of prime animals was small. The mutton trade
was ve7 firm at an advance in the quotations, com-
pared with this day fortnight, of 2d. per 81b. The best
Downs and halthreds realised 6s. 6d., in some MU,

We were tolerably well, but not to say heavily,
supplied with calves, whihc changed hands slowly, on
former terms.
There was a steady inquiry for pigs, and the quota-
tions were well supported.

OF

THE

load-star of her life. It so happened that
coming of age of Her Majesty's second
the young Prince Alfred, who is heir-
prtsumptive to the Dukedom of Saxe-Coburg,
became an incident of the present visit; and
he was formally hailed as such by the State
officials, in conformity with the ancient
custom of that illustrious house. That the
young sailor whose destiny precluded his
acceptance of the throne of Greece should
thus again be saluted as the heir of a sovereign
principality is something more than strange;
and without being superstitious, one can
scarcely help wondering what future there
can be before a Prince to whom fortune is so
persistently presenting crowns; something I
preferable surely to the sovereignty of a
German Dukedom which may any day bel
absorbed in a Federal Union—though not I
improbably a Union with the son of the
Queen of Great Britain at its head.
ll.—The Diocesan demonstration at Salis-
bury in favour of the principal Foreign
missions of the Church was marked by a
series of very gratifying circumstances; the
first was an imposing Cathedral serviee, con-
ducted, strange to say, amidst the din of the
restoratiens, which by some sort of incon-
gruity would seem to have. failed to be sus-
pended for the day, although assuredly the
workmen, who continued their clamour out-
side during the perfbtmance of the anthem,
consisting of selections from Handel ter-
minating in the glorious Hallelujah Chorus,
-
might, without great violeoce to Christian
charity, have been so. The eloquent Canon
Claughton, Worcester, preached a forcible
and somewhat fluent sermon, in which he
supported chiefly th e cause of the Society for the
Promotion ofChristian Knowledge,and treated
of matters of the educational rather than the
missionary platform; taking care to admin-
ister a stinging rebuke to those who, if they
subscribed slightly to the society's funds,
took care to reap a profit by obtaining cheap
bibles and prayer-books in proportion. It
was well that the rev. canon dwelt thus ex-
clusively on that branch of the matter, for
the evening meeting the Society for the
negation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts
had the whole say. The ishop of Oxford
even surpassed himself—though evidently
not in the most robust state of health—in
advocating the reclamation of "all the ends
otthe earth." Nothing more emphatic was
probably ever heard than his sweeping demo-
lition of the pretended spirit of toleration
which in our day would proclaim, if passible,
an &Dianne between, light and darkness—
nothing more terrible- than his whimpered
threatenings of coming judgment and
palamity—nOthing .mor tender than his
Weals on behalf of the Hawaiian Mission;
with Queen Emma as his own guest for the
time being at Cuddesden Palitee—tiothing
more manly and British than his reference to
, our unholy war just terminated in New
Zealand. Mr. Walpole's speech too, in its
way, wa!la reasterlyeummary of the lights of
our Divinity; the right hon'gentleman came
obviously prepared to cap theological know-
ledge with the whole bench of Bishops had
they been there present. The epeaking as a
whole was far above the average. The apart..
ment thoughinconveniently small was also
inconveniently crowded. Yet surely the
collections must have been far from realising
in a. pecuniary sense the expectations of the
zealous promoters of such a cause. In most
of the parishes represented, however, by
clergy- or-laity at the Salisbury meeting, an
opportunity of repairing omissions of this
sort, we are glad to say will imam=
diately be afforded; indeed We Antic* that
in All Saints', Dorchester, the annual col-
lections for the Propagation Society are ap-
pointed for Sunday next. We 4n 'holy say
that if ever a case for increased liberality
towards the Church's Foreign Missions was
made out from the platform it was established
lafitThursdiv at Salisbury,and we refer tosuch
outline of the proceedings on that occasion
as our space enables us to afford, assured that
it will still call forth the needful response.

lll.—The sense of iiiipending danger rallied
round the flag of the Dorchester Farmers' Club
a large and crowded assemblage of agriculturists,
in the Antelope Hotel, do Saturday last. The
strongest instinct oflthe British farmer is by fel
means self-preservation"; he never co-operates
with his fellows except upon pressing emergencies;
or, if he does, it is less from selfish than from
patriotic impulses. Thus for years he has
devoted his energies, in combination with
modern science, until he has so much cheapened
cereal production that eorn priees have ceased he
remeneratiee, and live stoat: has become his
mainstay owing to the enhanced price of meat.
The gelsond public, already the sufferer from
this state of things, would still suffer
from the further disittrtilis tionjtinetion of cattle
pestilent% with the existing dearth. But the
farmer and grazier step in to the rescue, and by
the Providence of. God they may possibly rescue
the country from the Steppe Murrain, as by the
same help they did now some years gone by,
from the threatened devastation of small pox
amongst sheep, by firm flerisiVe atitiOn, and the
drawing of a cordon Sanitaire around the infected
districts. The preliminary meeting held at
Dorchester, on Saturday, did well, we believes
in referrinCettAa more authoritative county
gathering a Mater 'of such direful import how-
ever as this cattle plague. But the suggestion'
of the Bath and West of England 8°407
for calling into action the readrmaflp
organisatioU of the Union Poor Law BoMO
are not to be detpised far in defiling
and articulatelY frith 010 8%41 in detail, it
may etitirely depend on the course and progress
of the disease whether even these boards may be
numerous enough to meet and cope with it at
every point. Still, without a County erganiestion
it does bot appear that thefelitelti be "flops sell!.
cient for aliperadding the important element of
Insurance against loss, whereby pecuniary loss
resulting from this common calamity would de-
scend upon the district at large without involving
the ruin of isolated individuals. It is much to
the credit of Lord Digby, Mr, Floyer, M.P.,
and other landlords who attended the Dorchester
meeting, that they eihibited their willingness
, to come forward and manilliat their 4tilpathy
with the suffering agrisiuliiiiialsoof the county
but it it tihil, we believe, an index of a wider
and universal recognition which will doubt-
less be made at the county meeting of the claims
which the occasion raises for combined succour
and counsel in a case of general difficulty and
danger. The speech of Mr. Floyer, It P. *Ai
in his usual reflective menneti directed to reeoli,
cue the diffithilties of the Case, the due exercise
of precaution, with the allaying of unnecessary
panic. As regards panic, however, we hate not
the same objections to it perhaps aalutarY and
certainly stimulating influence as in regard to
an epidemic attaaking the human subject. There
the prostrating power of fear inevitably adds to
the mortality. But as cattle, though by no means,
exempt ' as we often see in the horse,
&fleeted by the discussion of
extent we may, we con-
