THE CORN TRADE.

MARK LANIC, Friday.—Owing, in some measure, to
the prevailing line weather, and the favourable advice*
from most parts of the United Kingdom in reference to
the appealance of the grain crops, the demand ter
English wheat has been in a most inactive state this
week, and the quotations have had • drooping
tendency. Foreign wheat—the imports of which have
been seasonably good—has moved off slowly, and
inferior kinds have been offered on easier terms. There
has, however, been a good consumptive inquiry for both
English and foreign barley, at extreme currencies. In
the value of malt no change has taken place; but the
transactions in that article have been somewhat
restricted. Oats, if of sound quality, have commanded
very full prices; and both beans and peas have changed
hands steadily, at quite previous rates. At our market
the value of town made flour has fallen 4s. per 280 lbs.
Most of the French markets have been moderately
well supplied with wheat, which has changed hands
slowly, at the recent decline in the quotations. Most
other ,produce has realised former currencies. The
latest accounts from New York bring lower rates for
both wheat and flour, owing to the large supplies on

offer.
In Scotland, low and damp wheats have 'moved off
heavily, on easier terms. Spring corn has commanded
quite as much money as of late; but flour has changed
hands slowly.
The Irish markets have been scantily supplied with
wheat; yet the inquiry has continued much restricted,
at about stationary prices. Indian corn and flour have
sold heavily; but other descriptions of produce have
sold in moderate quantities, at late rates.
FRIDAY NIGHT.—At Mark-lane, to-day, there was a
somewhat increased, though by no means extensive,
supply of English wheat on offer, and the trade for all
qualities ruled heavy, but without leading to any
quotable change in prices, compared with Monday. In
foreign wheat— the show of which was moderately good
—a limited business was transacted, and the currencies
were barely supported. Oats were rather less firm,
owing to a large importation ; otherwise, the valne of
spring corn was well maintained. Flour, both English
and foreign, moved off heavily, at Monday's reduction
In the quotations. The top price of town made Was
Ms. per 290 Ihs. This week's imports amount to
8,920 quarters of wheat; 13,910 barley; 17,980 oats;
and 230 sacks of flour.
The corn market at Liverpool this morning was
inactive, at about Tuesday's currency.
YEOVIL MARKET, Friday.—The Corn Lichange WAX
very thinly attended weather fine. Sales were
dull. To effect these a, slight reduction on late prices
had to be submitted to. Thera were 200 Pigs on offer.
Bacon 7d. per lb., Best cheese, 565. to 70s; household

THE RIGHT OP A GAMEKEEPER TO SHOOT DOGS.—
At the West Riding police-court, hell at Doncaster on
Saturday, before Mr. William Aldain and a bench of
magistrates, an important question was tried as to the
right of a gamekeeper to shoot dogs. A young Ivan
named Smith, gamekeeper in the service of Hr. Chance
Thellusson, of Brodsworth-hall, was charged with shoot-
ing a dog belonging to a man named Strong; and from
the evidence it appeared that Strong's dog got away
from its 'caster's house on the 7th April last, and wan
Basil by Smith at Brodsworth, three miles and a half
distant, the same day. He went after it, and while it
was on the highway he fired at it twice, then chased it
a mile, and fired again twice, killing it at a place called
the " Three Lane Ends." The defence Bet up by Mr.
F. W. Fisher for Smith was that the case could not be
maintained, inasmuch as the defendant was acting, as
lie believed, in the due execution of his duty, and had •
right to shoot the dog. He called evidence to show
that the dog had been on the estate previously. The
Bench decided that the keeper had exceeded his duty in
shouting the dog upon the highway (which Passed
through his master's estate), and a fine of £2 was in-
flicted, and costs, together with £2, the value of the
dug tiO destroyed.

GROWTH OF MANGOLD Wunrm.--At the meeting of
the Royal Agricultural Society, Laid at Hanover-square,
last week, Mr. Frere brought before the notice of the
society, the question of the gro nth of mangold wurtzel
with artificial and other manures. He said he applied
4 cwt. of Lawson's guano, and 4 cwt. of the Peruvian,
mixed with 4 cwt, of the common salt. 'llbese were
strewed on to the ridges before the ridges were split in
the apring. One cwt. and a half of superphosphate
with 15 bushels of burnt ashes, were drilled in with the
plant; mei alongside of these were tried 10 tons of
farm-yard manure, also with the addition of 4 owt of
salt, and a mixture of 6 tons of farin•yard manure and
2 cwt. of Peruvian guano. When the crop was taken
up three drills were selected on each piece, and they
ineasu,ed 17 poles. The weight per acre was, under
Lawson's guano, only 14 tons 18 cwt.; under the
Peruvian guano, 22 tons 2 cwt,; uader farm manure
16 tors 14 cwt. ; and under the mixture of guano and
manure, 11 tons 15 cwt.

WOOL MARKETS.

LONDON, Friday.—The demand for low descriptions
ef English wools lies somewhat subsided, and the market
is in a very quiet state ;no alteration in prices. The
public sales of colonial wool commenced to-day. Fair
attendance both of home and foreign buyers. Com-
petition brisk. Port Philip of better aorta sold without
change ; inferior and faulty Id. lower. Other descriptions
sold Barn* as last sales.
. _

BRAD/ORD.—In anticipation of a heavy clip, and of
the extraordinarily large sales in London, staplers
evince an anxiety to sell the stocks of wool they hold.
Buyers, on the other hand, appear to expect a fall in
price from the came causes, and hold aloof from baying
more than will supply present requirements. The
price of the heavier descriptions of wool must la quoted
a shade in the buyer's favour, but fine qualities, certain
sorts of which are very scarce, maintain their price with
firmness. _ _ _

LIVZSPOOL, Friday.—Our public sales of East India
and other low wools have been brought to a close this
week. The former were eagerly competed for, and
realised an advance of a. penny per pound on the rates
obtained in last January auction sales. The sundry
kinds did not engagi so much attention, and were to •
great extent withdrawn.

grain ant) Comma.

The Board of Trade returns for the month ending
Mai oh 31st were published on Wednesday, and show a
decrease on the exports as compared with the same
period last year of £1,286,000. It is gratifying to ob.
serve that on almost every article exported to France
there is • large increase.

The scene at Glyn's Bank on Wednesday was perhaps
one of the most remarkable that has ever occurred in
Lombard-street. This being the day for the delivery
of the scrip of the Turkish Loan, so numerous was the
attendance of parties desirous of paying up in full that
the bank appeared almost in a state of Beige. It was
found impossible during the ordinary hours of business
to deliver the scrip to all the applicants. Altogether
no leas than .C 2,700,000 had been paid up in full when
the bank closed.

THX DISTRESS IN LANCASHIRE,. —The distrees in
Preston in rpeorted to be on the increase. The number
relieved by the guardians lately was 3,535, more than
treble the number relieved at the correspondence period
last year. The public relief fund has now been expended.
The expenditure of the relief committee in Wigan is
still slightly on the increase, the sum in one week being
about £230. The out relief given by the board of guardians
is also slightly rising. Within the last few days
another firm has stopped its mill in the town, and 600
more operatives will thereby be thrown out of employ-
ment. A second firm, employing about 240 hands, who
till now have been working three days per week, are
now only running their mill one day. It is not probable
the distress in Wigan will ever be so extensive (even in
proportion to the population) as it is in Preston and
Blackburn, as many of those families suffering from the
stoppage of the mills in the town have still mosey

CATTLE MARKETS.

THURSDAY.-To-day's market was rather scantily
supplied with beasts, and all breeds were in fair re-
quest, at fully Monday's currency, There was a eteady
inquiry for sheep, at full prices. The best old Downs,
in the wool, realised 5s 6d. per Sibs. Although the
aupply et lambs was rather extensive, the lamb trade
ruled active, at an advance in the quotations of 4d. per
Ms. Prime calves moved off readily, at an improve-
ment in value of 4d. per 8113 s.; but inferior calves were
a dull inquiry, at late rates. Pigs were heavy, but not
cheaper. In milch cows very little was doing. Total
se_ipply-Beahts, 980; sheep and lambs, 5,790 ; calves,
190; pip, 312. Foreign supply-Beasts, 180; sheep,

he had gone there under the idea that "all's right,"
he very soon found that it was all wrong so far as he
was concerned, for sefusing to leave when requested,
he was locked up. The Bench fined Matthew in the

years I learned had devolved the real work—they
are now worn out and require help. Those entirely
ineffective should not join the rest in attempting
harmony on Sundays. Old Time will not be denied.
All honour, however, be to them for the past. If
they have worshipped in spirit and truth, a more
glorious reward than mere mortal approbation awaits
them!

3.—The three full choral servioes are too laborious
for the strongest voice; no other choir attempts it.
Satoh duty is too hard to enable • fair performance—.
one plain service should be bad. The men are
clearly, in many, kept from undertaking solo
anthems. The nominal Wary of £25 keeps away
any but local choristers ; but in • population of 2,000
surely every five years fresh additions meld be
obtained,

Poole, August 25, 1862. --
THIS SKRVICK9 AT ST. JAMES'S CHURCH.
§li a pity that your correepondent " Verax" (1)
had not made himself more acquainted with fade,
before he sent his letter to your ',epee. He states
that the intonation of the litany on Sacrament
Sundays lam been discontinued by the new rector of
Poole. If he had attended service at St. James's on
the last oosaaion of Holy Celebration he would have
beard the Litany intoned, bat not (as usual) chanted,
which tends to lengthen the service. In the
Hymn Book now in use at St. James's the Psalms of
David occupy more than one third, and are fre-
quently sung, and no one could wish to cling to the
old-fashioned use of Tate and Brady. It is univer-
salist confessed that the change of the Sunday
evening service from 6 to half-past is infinitely
more convenient as affording longer time between
the afternoon and evening services. We have yet
to learn that the removal of a heavy and old.
fashioned sounding board, and closed back to the
ynifyill, affects the services of the church. The 6th
alteration mentioned is" Doing away with the
vehicles and responses," plainly proving that
" Vera:" (f) does riot attend the church, or he would
hese them intoned ha usual, and would not be foolish
enough to ascribe to the rector what would inevitablar
deprive a clergyman of his gown. If you wish to
bear of other 'changes" effected by the rector
you may learn that in the afternoon service the
Canticle. and Gloria Petri after the Psalms are now
chanted. That the alms at Holy Celebration are
now collected by the churchwardens during the
reading of the offertory sentences, instead of being
dropped into two plates suspended from the alter
rails as each person approached ;—that now on
Sainte' Days and other festivals the Communion
Serviee is read from the altar, instead of (am formerly)
the reading desk ;—that 300 seats have been made
free for the poor ..—tbat the Te Deum is chanted as
a rule Matsui of tieing occasionally sung to a service;
—that the Holy Communion is administered every
month and on all the great festivals ; and that the
visible result of these "alterations" is a marked
increase in the congregation and in the number of
communicant& Those who are anxious for oongre-
gational singing, will not fail to perceive that
" plain and easy hymn times" are far more likely
to produce the desired effect than laboured perfor-
mances with two or three solos in each verse,
prolonging the hymns to a moat wearying length—
such as are now only heard in obscure country
villages, where the love for good church music has
not yet penetrated. Hoping that another time
your correspondent will take more pains to prove
lime right to the mane of Verax.—l am, Sir,
ONB ON THE SPOT.

gravelled, and fresh turf laid dews The &Hoge of
the surrounding trees serve to make it one
of the most picturesque of village Aura:
yard, though they also in a great part hide the
church from any distant view. Prayers wore read
by the Rev. Rev. Robert Farquharson, the rector
the lessons by the Rev. Prebendary Watts and the
Rev, W. Marie; the Communion Berries by the
Bishop and the Hon. and Rev. W. H. Soo* the
Bishop's chaplain. The sermon was preached by the
Bishop from 1 Kings, viii. chap. and 18 verse.—
"I have surely built thee an house to dwell it:,
and a settled place for thee to abide for ever." The
holy sacrament was administered after service, and
in the afternoon the Rev. J. S. Raddack, formerly
curate of Blandford, preached to a large congrep.
don from Isaiah linchap. and3l verse.—" They that
wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up on wings as eagles."

FRANCE TO ITALY.

Italians, you but waste your breath,
The right you cry for stands no chance :
You raise the shout of "Rome or Death!"

And " Death !" is the reply of Prance.
Yes, death, my friend, for I am strong;
France is resolved to have her way;
Her will is law, which, right or wrong,
The weak must perish or obey.
Tour olaim of Rome I most refuse,
Pot! don't want you to become
Too independent, and I chooee
To keep you underneath my thumb.
But death's a boon I wont deny,
If you desire to bite the dusts
Brave, then, the might of France, and die ;
If die you will, then die you mutt.
My Bourbons I dethroned, 'tis true;
But therefore cherish not the hope
That I shall ever suffer you
To do the like, and doff the Pope..
His power it suite me to maintain,
My cannons guard the Papal chair;
You pray for liberty in vain •
Attempt to win it if you dsxe.
The Eldest Daughter of the Church
Must needs defend her parent's Head,
And keep the Pontiff on his perch,
Although upon your necks he tread.
Creeds may by her be turned to sport,
Or dogmas carelessly ignored,
But France must Popery support,
As an Idea, with the sword. _
To suppliants what I did not grant
Claimants from inc shall never wring;
To stern demand of course I can't •

Think of oonoeding such • thing.
Honour forbids me to concede.
To menace, what is justly due;
Then how you strike for Rome, take heed,
Death is your portion if you do.
A generous nation am I not?
Of progress don't I lead the van'
Befriend the struggling patriot?
And vindioate the Rights of Man?
Ah I yes, but I must domineer,
So cannot call my forces home;
Then Death to every Volunteer
So bold as to advance on Rome !—Pwncli.

CHOIRS AND CHORAL SERVICES.

ST*,—A few Sundays since I visited the beautiful
Minstar at Wimbonie. With all the fervour of an
affectionate devotes to char& music do I ask you
to ineert two or three practical remarks, ealled up
by what I saw and heard there regarding, the
service.

I. —That there sbeuld be always provided a
reserve, say rife: boy., to BIT any accidental vacancies,
so" that the present inefficiency of tone and tune
would never occur.

- -
2.—The same as regards the men choristers,
on three or four of whom during the last fifteen
Yearn I learned had devolved the real work—they
are now worn out and require help. Those entirely
ineffective should not join the vest in attempting
harmony on Sundays. Old Time will not be denied.
All honour, however, be to them for the past. If
they have worshipped in spirit and truth, a more,
glorious reward than mere mortal approbation awaits
them

ll.—The three fall choral services are too laborious
for the strongest voice; no other choir attempts it.
Bach duty is too hard to enable • fair performance,—
one plain sorties should be had. The men are
clearly, in mercy, kept from undertaking solo
anthems. The nominal salary of £215 keeps away
any but load chorister.; but in a population of 2,000 I
rarely every five years fresh additions could be I
obtained.
4--The unseemly noises by the boys when finding
out the services in their books were remarkable. The
verger's stick should care these.
The recent seneatiou meetings at fiherborne,
Devisee, and Wimborne, at all of which I was pre-
sent, show that the peggiet.still love good church
music. .

Choristers should consider the deep responsibility
oonnected with their sacred duties. The special in-
vocations by uplift voices to the throne of God, ear-
ronedad se theft is by the perfect praise of angelic
b9ste, should ,at all times imprees a Christian bay.
