GREEK STATUE TO BYRON.

The statue erected by the Greek nation in honour of
Lord Byron was unveiled on Sunday at Missolonghi,
where he died.

Numerous invitations had been issued to distin-
guished strangers, as well as natives, to take part in
the proceedings, and though not a few persons were
prevented by unfavourable winds from reaching the.
town in time, the ceremony passed off with great
eclat. The authorities, in fact, omitted nothing to
render the event a success, and to show the gratitude
with which Greece regards the memory of the great
English and Philhellene poet.

THE MARKETS.

MARIi-LASE.-MONDAY.

The grain trade at Mark-lane has been dull, and prices
teml in buyers' favour. The weakness of New York prices
causes flatness here. Supplies of English grain are short.
There is a good show of foreign wheat, but of other articles
the receipts have not been plentiful. For English wheat
the demand was inactive, and prices were rather easier
than on Monday last, say 6d per qr. Foreign wheat
was purchased rather slowly, at 6d to is per qr.
less money for East Indian qualities. The flour market
was dull and weak. As regards barley, there is nothingnew
to notice. Fine malting produce continues to be well held,
but st coudary samples, as well as grinding, have been lower
to sell. Oats are steady, with the prospect of diminished
foreign supplies. Prices may be quoted 3d to 6,1 dearer on
the week. Maize was a slow sale at about late rates. Beaus
were steady, but peas dull anfl weak.

METROPOLI CAN CATTLE MARKET.-MONDAY.

A dull tone characterised the cattle trade. The mild
weather and the heaviruss in the dead meat market have
combined to produce heaviness and limit dealings About
an av( rage supply of beasts came from our own grazing
districts, and there was again a liberal show of Irish. The
demand was on a limited scale, and the tendency of prices
was in buyers' favour. The bests Scots and crosses made
5s (id to 5s Si per Sib. From the midlands home counties we
received about 1,300, from Scotland 70, and from Ireland 1,000
head. On the foreign side of th., market the supply of beasts
waslimited, and the demand was heavy at drooping prices.
The sheep pens were only moderately well filled. The trade
• was dull, and. less money was taken. The best Dawns and
half-breds made 63 Sti to (is 10d per Sib. Calves and pigs
were disposed of at about late rates. At Deptford there
were about 3,000 beasts and 8,000 sheep :—Coarse and
inferior beasts, 4s to 49 61; second quality, 4s 6d to Is;
prime large oxen, Is 41 to 59 61 ; prime Scots, 5s 6d to

THE YORK TOWN CELEBRATION.

A grand banquet to the Delegates who attended the
Yorktown celebration was given last Saturday night
by the members of the New York Chamber of Com-
merce.

The Rev. Dr. Storrs, in responding to one of the
toasts, said—" The chief significance of the victory at
Yorktown was the birth there of that spirit of freed.,m
which unites nations., and makes Americans admire
the reign of that one Royal woman in the world,
whom every American heart regarded with feelings of
confidence and affection—Queen Victoria."

Mr. William M. Evans Faid—" The granddaughter
of George 111. was bathed with the sweet incense
poured out by America in paying to her, as a noble
woman, the tribute denied to an inherited Sceptre and
Crown."

RE3IOVAL OP THE PRISONER.

The condemned man was removed at five o'clock on
Tuesday evening from Maidstone Gaol to Lewes
Gaol. He was accompanied by two warders, and
conveyed in a cab to the South-Eastern Hallway
Station. On alighting from the vehicle he was
hurried handcuffed into ale middle compartment
of a second-class carriage, where four prison
officials took their seats beside him. He was
attired in a black frock coat and silk hat, while
his handcuffed hands were hidden by a thin overcoat.
Reaching the station just before the train started, the
carriage containing him was taken some distance up
the line to hide him from the view of the large crowd
which had assembled, despite the efforts made to keep
his departure secret; and at the time for departure, ten
minutes past five, the carriage was brought back and
coupled to the train, and the journey commenced.
At each station on the route large numbers of spec-
tators assembled in hope of catching a glimpse of the
prisoner, but the blinds being closely drawn, they
were disappointed. It was expected that he would
change carriages at Tunbridge Wells, but instead of
this the South Eastern carriage was detached, and
attached to the direct Lewes train on the Brighton
line. On reaching Lewes he was at once conveyed to i
the prison n a cab, attended by two warders. A large
mob had assembled, and they greeted him with groans
and jeers.

A BACHELOR'S BLESSING.—A latch key.—Judy.
AMERICAN APPLFS.—It is satisfactory to learn that
the apple crop in Vermont is excellent in quality as
well as quantity. There is a great demand for winter
apples at Boston, whilst, strange to say, thousands of
bushels of choice pears are rotting on the trees for
want of a market. An orchard owner in Chittenden
County has sold over 5,000 barrels of apples at 3 dols.
per barrel. Second quality apples are sold at 1 dol.
50 cents per barrel, to be used in the apple.drying
establishments. The same cheering account comes
from California, from whence the amount of fruit
shipped during the present season will bring about
2,410,00041915. profit to the.Stata,c: ..Ir,hio.u-alLaffike up

THE IMPRISONMENT OF THE REV.
S. F. GREgN,

A meeting ur Churchnien, convened by the Church
Of England Working Mcn's Society, to protest against
the ContiMied imprisonment of the Reverend S. P.
Green, and to proniote_his release, was held in London
on Monday night e.t the Ca:imon-areet Hotel. The
hall was crowded,. and an oovi ,rneeqng was held
in a room below by those who could ±4.ot get into the
large hall. The chair at the principal meet,Fho *ad.
taken by Sir Percival Heywood, patron of the living Of
St. Johns, Niles Platting. Deputations attencltd
from many provincial toms. Resolutions were passed
repudiating the recent judgments by which it was
declared that the plain directions of the laws of the
Church laid down in the Book of Common Prayer had
been set aside, expressirg regret that the Public
Worship Regulation Act had been passed, and sym-
pathy with thoge who suffered for the confusion
caused by it, and praying the Queen to order the rs-
lease of the Reverend S. P. Green during the deli-
b:2rations of the Royal Commission lately appointed.
The secretary said that the Archbishop of Can-
terbury had promised to present to the Queen a
laymen's petition for the release of Mr. Green, which
had received a large number of signatures.
