MASH-LANG.—(TIrD3 DAY.)
Notwithstanding that only moderate supplies of ling-
limb wheat were on ode here to-day, very IFtue animation
p,nailed in the demand for either red or white samples.
The attendance of millers was limited, and sales were net
without difficulty ooncluded at Monday's decline in
value.
Full average supplies of foreign wheat were on the
stands. The transactions were in retail, at about late
currencies. Floating cargoes of wheat were difficult to
sell. Maize and other descriptions of produce afloat com-
manded full prices.
The barley trade was firm, and for fine malting reduce
as much as We. pat qr. wee paid. ("finding and diisti ling
sorts were unelterod in value.
Malt, the supply of which was seasonably extensive,
changed hands to a fair extent on former terms.
In oats sales progressed steadily, and prices were sup-
Beans were firm and quite as dear.
Peas sold at late rates.
The flour trade was heavy, on former terms.
On the whole, the market for seeds, as well as tikes,

MR. TRII'IIOOK AND MS CREDITOR.—" Septua-
" narrates an incident in the life of the old
Triphook. The well-known George liardinge,
who was many years ago iu parliament, and by no means
punctual in Ins payments, having contracted • debt with
Thphook, the bookseller applied for it ou several occasions
by letter, without receiving any answer. Triphook even-
tually sent a letter addressed to " George Harding.,
or his Executors," remarking that he had
several letters to Mr. Ilardinge, to which he had not re-
ceived an answer, and expressing his fears that he was
dead, concluding with the remark that "should the
melancholy circumstance be true, I hope his executors
will pay my bill." This letter was received by Harding°,
who wrote the following answer :
" Deer Mr. Ttiphook,
" What is feared by you,
" The melancholy circionstanoi is true—
" True I am dad ; and, more afflicting still,
" My IT' ashen will not pay your bill ;
" For, ;to tame it I ant broken-hearted,
"This transient life insolvent I departed,
" And so for you there's not a single farthing.
" For my executors and self,
" Gams Marino&

" You'll psy the postage which these lines will cod ;
" The dead their frankiug privilege hate krt."
