SUPERFINE PROOFS.— A Proof of Kindnen.—
Getting any one to accept an Art-Uniim engraving. A
Proof of Gratitude.—Getung a person, not only to accept
one, but actually to say " Thank Too," and afterwards to
frame it. A Proof of the latter is exceedingly rare, and
would, we are confident, fetch a very high price amongst
connoimenrs.—Purick.

fallen since Saturday, but to-day the air is much drier, and
with a tendency to ft,at. At our market this morning we
had a good supply of Wheat from the grown, and the arrivals
coastwise u well as from abroad (more especially from the
latter source) being liberal, any advance was resisted by
our millers but at the rates of Saturday a tolerable clear-
ance was effected; the best south country red makiisg 69a.;
choice new foreign, 58s. ; and Danish qualities, 660. to 67a.

• steady inquiry; favourite marks of households be

American our market is pretty well cleared. Rye excites
little attention, 346. being an extreme value for tine con-
ditioned Norfolk. Malting Barley in fair request, but the

Peas without change. Oats rather firmer.
