Markets.

BRITIsH CORN TRADE.

Attention has been directed to the differences In
farmers' wheat and that imported; the first is 'tom-
pandits), km and held by obstinate ashen—using the
word " obstinate " technically, and not offenalveiy—
whilst the hAders of Foreign Wheat, especially
American, exhibit a weakness that has, in reality, gives
way in 13d. and is. falls, to a total of about 51. from the
let of teat month. linglish Wheat, on the oontrery,
(Mx 81. at the end of Deeember, was 63.. 01. at the end
of January, and if now difficult of sale yet it has not
receded but to 631. 23., much leas to 56.. 81., which
will ma the corresponding figures. TIAN simple fact
shows that the present position of the Wheat Market is
uneasy, foreign Infirmness tending towards • farther
fall, and home influences towards firmness. The
callable season, mildness and rain, preceded and
followed by sharp frost, further meats, unsettled
markets, and the open water of the Amerisan lakes, a
most unusual occurreeoe, sots strongly on affairs in
New York, whence, this week, have came orders lower
than have hitherto been sampled. Already we bear of
Australia having shipped her first wheat cargo from the
recent harvest, so that millers will soon be refusing
other wheat, awaiting the favourite samples from our
oolony. German Wheat, at 665, is just now thought
to be relatively cheaper than lingliab, allowing for
weight and quality, bat the quantity of this on offer is
very limited. The corn trade in lie other branches,
beside wheat, is also mirth depressed, Midas and Gate
being irregularly lower in vales; Malting Barley remains
soars* and high, but grinding aorta are easier to buy in
moat markets. Generally we may remark that buyers
are very unanimously agreed that there is more stook
than is muffloient for immediate consumption, end this
is, for winter time, very small, owing to the abandons's"
and eheapneas of potatoes, and the increased power,
given by higher wages, of the working .lames to buy
meat and other food than bread. The lm orte of wheat
and flour during the week ended February 14, aroonnted
to about 168,000 qrs., a deelded falling off as compared
with the arrivals of the week previous. The arrivals
of oat, were about 124,000 qrs., and this Imam in
of aboat 71,000 quarter'. Tbe following are the
quantities sold and average prices for the past six
weeks :

MORI HORSE STEALING.

The enquiries made respecting a horse stolen from
Warwickshire and eaptured with the suspected thieves
at Dorchester has brought to light another daring emes
of a similar character. Some four months back a Mr.
Bailey, of Chichester, missed from his farm • valuable
cart horse, and oould learn no tidings of it till last week
It wee f mitt at work on Mr. It. Genge's farm at
Watersoo, near Dorchester. It is believed to have
been stolen by the men taken to Birmingham for the
other robbery we have mentioned. 'The animal was
offered for sale at Msrtinatown fair but November,
where Mr. Genge bought it for £3O odd, the vendor
driving a hard bargain. A warranty was given with
the animal by the seller, sad also what purported to be
a warranty he reosived from the person of whom he
said he purohased it. To. price was paid by oh, que
p,yable to order, and therefore is endorsed with the
name of the payer. Whether thin m.y ac.ist to bring
the men to jostles we don't know, for although swit a
cheque is popularly supposed to be some asfegusql
againi.t loss, • ease recently mentioned in a London
polioe.court tends to disabuse the public mind of the
notion. However, we underatend, Mr. Genp will be
able to identify the sellers, so that they ro,y 5.4 their
career isf horse stealing stopped for • art lie. The horse
has been sent beck to CLichester, under the charge of
Superlivtendent Pratt It seems the animal was stolen
, on the night of the 30th Nov,mber, two days before

1 LADY'S APPEAL.

The eigh,eenth anniversary festival of the Dramatic,
Musical, aid Equestrian Sick Fund Association WWI
held on Wedceaday at Willis'arootto, under the prod.
denoy of Mr. Oxenford. The tout of the evening was
responded to by Mrs. Stirling, who in oonolutliog her
speech, said :—ln those days of nomination speeches,
which had now fortunately come to an end—(bear,
hear), and "stomp" speeches, she would now also
" stump;" and some people would think that this would
have something to do with the "magpie," for muples
have • character for chatterint--(lnughtsr). There
were no spoons there that evening probably, eroepted
plated spoons, for Mr. Willis, knowing that they
belonged to • class of vagabonds, would not trust them
—(laughter), so there) was only "property" plate. Ti,.
'adios were spouse, and they miziat ho trusted to take
care of them—(renewed laughter). But bar mind was
not upon the spoons, but, Ike Mr. Odgor, for an
attack upon their sovereigns—(hear, hear, and cheers),
and the more of them she could curry off curl secrete in
the treasury b,x of the society the better. In these
days of general elections she would announce herself
us candidate for their vote and interest ; they would
be pleased to observe that candidates never 'ought
then own intereet—(langhter), for they were lly
so disinbarested—(reneered laughter). As their hes&
were full of the Gold Coast expedition, they would not
be surprised at her starting tor "Tom Tiddler's
Ground," where she hoped to pick up • lot of their gold
before they met King Coffee. Let them follow her
then, to the region of bank-books and breeches pockets
—(laughter), which she hoped would yield as readily
as Ooomassie had done, its brave commander proving so
successful with a mere handful of red jackete—(cheers).
In conclusion, she would say, help their funds to put
their sick and wounded in such • condition ea they
hoped that the sick engaged in the Ashutee wax would
be placed in; arid finally. she would ask them I. lay
their left bands on their hearts, the right on their
Cr:s, and lot one do the silent bidding of the other.

A REMARKI OPER TROUPE.

- - - -•
An extreordinary public entertainment has been pro.
dared in Lola, Peru, by an Italian named Contarini,
who proposes to bring his exhibition to Europe. He
ham taught and trained, by dint of great patience and
perseverance, an opera company, made up of 30
parrots and parcuets, lab] perform two of Bellinfe
operas, '' Norma" and 0 Sonnambula," on a miniature
stage, with full chorus and recitative. The director
and manager accompanies the artistes on a piano
harmonium, and the perfection with whieh each bird
sings his part and the excellence of the °horns are
prodigious, The daat of his lyrioo-ornithologiosl
company in "Norma" 1.11.11 attended by the wealth and
fashion of Lima. When the paroquet that sang the
cow ralto had finish, d the allegro to the "Salutation to
the Moon," such was the enthusiasm, the shouting, and
the applause at hearing tbe bird sing the "Casts Divt"
that the bird company, affrighted, took flight, and
sought refuge ano-ng tho side science. This interrupted
the performance for full a quarter of an hour, and
Signor eontarini had to Ira, quilixa the "artists" by
giving them bread soaked in wine. Henceforth the
expressions of approbation were moderated, in order
not to spoil the play. It syrears that the bird artists
have now became accustomed to the applause. The
eorrectness and propriety with which they give (*dein
parts of the opera are wonderful. The prime tenors
possesses all the airs graces of the school of Mario, and
the ladies of Lints have named the prima donna, Patti.
