CATTLE.

BRISTOL, Tnt RSDAY. —A large supply of beef,
and there was a good attendance of buyers. A large
proportion, however, of the meat on offer was of an
indifferent quality, and for which there was but little
demand. Bat descriptions sold very well at from 82s
to 845 per cwt, and middling sort, were only disposed
of with difficulty at from 65s to 70s. We had also a
large supply of sheep, but trade was quiet. Best
wethcrs changed hands at from Bed to gd per lb., and
heavy ewe, from 7fd to 8.1. Lamb was plentiful and
trade quite active, the average quotation being is per
lb. There were about 600 store cattle from Ireland,
but trade still continues very dull, and a good many
were left unsold. Prices, however, remained un-
altered. Milch cows were in good supply and at late
rates. There were about t,600 pigs on offer, and
trade was rather quiet. Bacon pigs fetched Its gd
per score. The market was rather overdone with
porkers, and to effect a clearance holders had to sub-
mit to a slight reduction, the average quotation being
the same as bacon—t Is. gd. per score.
METROPOLITAN, THURSDAY—The supply of
beasts is short, especially of good qualities. Trade is
active, and Monday's quotations are well maintained
throughout. We have a fair supply of sheep; the
demand is also good, and prices are not lower. Choice
lambs are scarce and rather dearer. Calves are plenti-
ful ; trade for them remains unaltered. There are
only 35 English and 60 foreign much cows on offer;
trade is more active at somewhat higher rates. Our
foreign supply consists of 240 bents, 4,490 sheep,
and 520 calves.

the Town Clerk (Mr. H. W. Dickinson) have had inter-
views with the directors and the general manager of the
London and South Western Railway, in reference to the
alleged non-fulfilment by the company of conditions hu•
posed on them by Art of Parliament, the object of which
was to give greater railway facilities to the town of Poole.

London, have Got been made public, but we have been
informed on good authority that the company have con-
ceded all that was asked for. Thus much litigation and
expense will be spared, for the Town Clerk was armed by

A SMALL INSTALMENT OF JUSTICE To
' FARMERS.

There has been an oppression in some parts of Norfolk
that Mr. r. S. Read, Parliamentary Secretary of the
Local Government Board, ought possibly resign his ap-
pointment in consequence of the views which he enter-
Seined with regar.l to the Duke of Richmond's Agricultural
Holdings BM. Mr. Read, however, writes to Mr. Gordon,
President of the Norfolk I handler of Agriculture, that
there seems no option but to accept the Duke of Rich-
mond's Bill as a small instalment of that justice which
the law hill so long denied to the fanners. "There
seems no chance," adds Mr. Read, "if the Agricultural
Holdings Bill is rejected, of any better legislation from
the present l'arliament."

hate recently issued a fresh printed statement of the
Chancel Voluntary Restoration Fend to Easter, 1.175.
The debt which waS at one time considerable, has shrunk
back to VI 7's 1.1. The voluntary outlay on this good
work has been .1:01. This does not include the seven
memorial windows, the new communion table, andedher
gifts. When ti the :thove are added the new roof and
some :substantial repairs executed by the lay rectors liable
for the fabric, there has been • total expenditure during
the past six years of more than CSIIOI ui this fine Early
English chancel. The with has been costly owing t, the
unusually large dimensions of the chanrel and the fresh
Parbeek marble required in the east and smith windows
' to keep them in harmony with those on the north side.
In the th windows the marble shafts, capitals, and
bases were so dilapidated that they had to be entirely
replaced: the floor has been paved throughout with
encaustic tiles (rein the Benthall works in Shropshire : the
scats and other fittings are of oak. All has been done
under the superinten.lence of Mr. T. H. Wyatt, the

SEEDS.
Owing to the improved weather there is now less
excitement in the seed trade ; all descnptions are,
however, held with extreme firmness, and although
the brisk speculative demand of last week has abated,
there are no indications of values going away. In
trifolium inmrnatum there is a for steady trade
at( ull prices ; of fine, bright, good conditioned seed
supply offering is small. In consequence of the
unfavourable reports of the new crop a good deal of
attention continues to be given to trefoil seed. There
is also some business passing in red and white clover
seed. Two or three samples of new English rape
' seed of excellent quality have been shown in Mark.

getting round the straight near !Anther Couinion at a

Be (witness) sounded his whistle and put on the break.
The first waggon was too near to be pleasant, but got
across, and then he saw another waggon of hay, which on
!swing over was nearly caught by the engine, sow of tAs
hay king knocked olby it. It was a narrow escape both
for himself and the passengers in the train. Defendant

was that two waggons had to cross. The driver of the
second opened the gate, and the other led the horses over.

point to be debated, after admitting the necessity, is
whether an artificial port should be ens-toil or a natural
one adopted which happens to lie already In existence.
I believe the cost would be infinitely less and the satis-
faction more complete and general, if the entrance to the
already land-locked roadstead of Bninksea were opened
from Studland Bay than if a lireakwster were formed in
swanage Bay. We are all proud of great national

LATEST NEWS.

REVIEW OF THE CORN TRADE.
There has been continued firmness in the wheat trade,
and at Mark-Lane to-day an advance of Ons Shilling per
qr. was demanded, but not generally obtained. Agricul-
tural prospects are favourable, and the probability or the
short supplies held causing any important advance is thus
lessened. Buyers are still operating merely f row hand-to.
mouth ; but the consumptive demand is of sufficient
magnitude to itupart steadiness to quotetime.
The quantity of wheat now on passage to the United
Kingdom is estimated at 1,307,000 qrs. against 1,330,000
qrs. at thbt time last year. There is a large surplus in
America available for export; and as soon as the season
Is a little more advanced we may expect that there will
be a decided augmentation of supplies, from the South
Russian ports, when the difficulties of transport have been
minimised.
Barley has been dull, and prices have been nominaL I
Oats have risen One hhilling. and maize has ruled sixpence
