CURE FOR DEAR BREAD.
YELLOW BUTTER FOR EIGHTPENCE,
AT
KELLY'S BUTTER PLACE.

HOW TO PRESERVE THE PEACE OF EUROPE.

The aspect of the Continent
Now fills us with alarms,
When we behold Sardinia, France,
And Austria in arms.
Not that we tremble for ourselves,
Here in our home sea-girt;
Yet still we would the scourge of war
From other lands avert.
The skilled n foreign politics
Their brains are racking now
Peace to preserve in Europe
By all means, no matter how.
A General Congress they propose,
By means of which they trust
The various points of difference
To speedily adjust.
With all respect for such wise heads.
I rather think I can
Propose a much more simple
And a much less tedious plan.
The self-same plan which I propose,
When Indic rebelled,•
Which plan was then adopted,
And behold the mutiny quelled.
Let every one who peace desired
To Kelly quickly hie,
And him beseech each army
With his butter to supply.
On tasting which all thoughts of war
Within each breast would cease,
And every voice bieak forth in praise
Of butter and of peace.
And tell me, would each hostile host
A whit more glory gain
By struggling like " Kilkenny cats."
Till tails alone remain l
The brilliant suggestion referred to appeared thus, in June,
1857 :

.‘ In re"—greased cartridges—
". 'rhe Government should really send to Delhi,
" Some Butter from the celebrated Kelly,"
And we all know what followed.

As some uneasiness was felt by the people of Liverpool,
with respect to a continuation of this yellow Butter at Bd.,
we beg to inform them, we shall have quite enough to meet
the demand to the 12th May.

NO SHIP SHOULD GO TO SEA without one of Saunders
and Co.'s Patent Selt-cleansing Charcoal Filters, cased and
fitted-up expressly for use on board ship. Note the address,

It is a well known maxim that "time is money"—the
terms are relative •so to save one is to save the other. We
save both time, and economise patience, and present good
tempers, when we have a good PEN —a bad one upsets pati-
ence and temper. Preserve all, then, by purchasing your
steel pens and other stationery, at E. T. Hall's whole-
sale steel pen warehouse. 23, South John-street. John

pens at is per gross. Good Pen Holders 2d per dozen.
To S MIPPEUS AND EXPORTER& A most profitable
article of export, to warm climates especially, are the Self-
cleansing Charcoal Filters, patented by Messrs. Saunders
and Co., of 16, Parker-street, Liverpool—in fact they are
invaluable wherever there is bad water. S. and Co. allow
a liberal discount on export and wholesale orders.
EXTRAORDINARY AND USEFUL INVENTION.—There is
nothing that housewives complain of with greater truthful-
ness, than the breaking of some favourite piece of glass,
valuable china, or earthenware. In hundreds of cases such
things cannot be matched, and of course cannot be mended.
The latter want has been obviated by an extraordinary and
effective invention, by Mr. Adshead, of Derby Pottery, near
Derby. It is a cement that may be said to heal, in a per-
fect manner, all cracks and breaks in the articles spoken of ,
and not only in these, but in marble, alabaster, &c. The
benefit of this article need not be dwelt on. We have seen
some of its effects at Mr. Hall's, our neighbour's, and the
glass that has been cemented by.it is stronger in that part
than in any other. The article is very cheap, and no house
can be long without it. Mr. Hall is the agent for its sale
in Liverpool, and all interested can judge for themselves by
looking in at his establishment. Agent for Liverpool, E.
T. Hall, 23, South John-street. Sold in bottles, is each,
or sent free on receipt of sixteen postage stamps.

SP OltiT ING INTELLIGENCE. MONETARY ANI) COMMERCIAL.
LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening.
The Liverpool Cotton Market has again been firm,'
and prices have still a hardening tendency, though
iofinng
the quotations to-day are not higher than yesterday.
The sales amount to 8,000 bales, and include 1,000
taken for speculation and export.
The improved tone of the Liverpool Share
Market not only continues, but has to-day been
increased, and there is much stronger disposition to
enter into more extensive operations than for some
time past. The quotations to-day show a considera-
ble improvement, as will be seen by the following,
which were the actual transactions : Caledonian,
74 ; Great Western, 51 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 86,
85a- ; London, Brighton, and South Coast, 1051; ; London
and North Western, 861, 87, 861, 864 ; ditto one-
eighth shares, 1 15-16 d ; Manchester, Sheffield and
Lincoln, 34, 331; Midland, 934, 931 ; 931 ; North
Eastern—Berwick stock, 84 ; South Eastern, 184,
18 7-16 ; Great Western of Canada, 13, 131.
There were only two transactions reported after
official hours, :and which were' in Lancashire and
Yorkshire, at 851; and Midland, at 931. The
final closing quotations were: -- Blackburn, 111,
1114; Chester and Birkenhead, 60, 61; Cale-
donian, 73, 741 ; Eastern Counties, 101,
10Z ; East Lancashire, 83, 85 ; Great North-
.

ern, 94, 96 ; Ditto A., 79, 81 ; Great
Western, 51, 511 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire
Stock, 854, 854 ; London and North-Western
Stock, 861 87 ; Ditto one-eighth shares, 1 15-16,
14 d ; Manchester, . Sheffield, and Lincoln, 33'4,
333; Midland Stock, 934, 931 ; North British, 51,
511 ; North Staffordshire, 44, 4,y d; North Eastern,
-Berwick, 833, 841 ; York and North Midland, 671,
681 ; Leeds Capital Stock, 42, 43; South Eastern
and Dover, 181 18 7-16 ; Dutch Rhenish, 7, 61 d;
Great Western of Canada, 13;3, 133 ; Do. New,

Trunk of Canada, 71 71; Lombardo-Venetian, 21,
21.,d; Do. New Shares, 3, 21 d.
The Manchester Goods Market still labours under
an almost suspension of business, but the feeling
to-day was more hopeful. The transactions were
however, very trifling, and prices quite nominal.
The downward tendency of the Corn Market
continues. At the Liverpool Exchange, this
morning, there was only a moderate atten-
dance, and to effect sales in wheat, a decline
of from is 3d to is 6d per cental had to be submitted
to. Flour was is per cental lower, and Barley,
Beans, and Peas were 6d lower. Oats declined 4d,
and Oatmeal 6d.
The. London Stock Market has shown considerable
buoyancy to-day, and with a strong disposition to
purchase and a scarcity of stock offering, prices have
experienced a further considerable advance. Con-
sols opened firm at a shade over the closing
quotations of yesterday, and rapidly improved until
noon, when they stood at 921 and after receding
a little again, became firmer, and finally left off at
911 to 92. The closing quotatiors for other Secu-
rities were-Consols, for Money and Account, 911,
92 ; Three per Cents., 901, 91 ; Bank Stock, 216,
219 ; Exchequer Bills (large and small), 17, 23, prem.
The London Share Market opened with a firm
tone, and a tendency to advance ; but under the
pressure of sales during the day the upward move-
ment was arrested, and the quotations at the close
were not quite so good as those current at an earlier
period of the day. The following were the final
closing quotations : -Ambergate, 51, ; Caledonian,
74, 75 ; Preference, 98, 100 ; Eastern Counties,
521, 531 ; East Lancashire, 84, 86; Edinburgh and
Glasgow, 67, 69 ; Great Northern, 94, 95 ; ditto A,
78, 80 ; ditto B, 124, 128 ; Great Western,
501, 511 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 841, 851 ;
Brighton, 105, 106 ; North-Western, 851,
861 ; South-Western, 85, 86 ; Manchester,
Sheffield, arid Lincoln, 33, 34 ; Midland, 92*, 931;

North British, 50, 52 ; ditto Preference, 103, 106 ;
North-Eastern---Berwick, 831, 84i ; ditto Leeds, 42,
43 ; ditto York, 68!',, 691 ; North Stafford, 51, 51 ;
South Eastern, 61, 614 ; Turkish Sixes, 63, 65 ;
ditto Fours, 98, 100 ; Great Western of Canada,
13%, 13Z ; new, 7, 61 die ; Grand Trunk of Canada,

The London Wool Sales have shown very little
change to-day in the value of any kind of Wool.
About 12,200 bales have been disposed of to-'.''.Y 1331
Messrs. Southey and Son, but the madings have
ruled inactive.
The Mermaid bac arrived from Melbourne with
13,479 ounces of gold, valued at 53,916/. The Sussex
has also arrived from Melbourne with 98,8001.
The extraordinary movement in the freight mar-
ket is thus noticed in the fortnightly circular of
Messrs. Sharer, Lamb, and Co.:—
( Since our last the freight market has been subject to the
most violent agitation, and it is still in an extraordinary con-
dition, although the fever is not so intense. In the course of
less than a fortnight an advance has taken place of 50 to 75
per cent. in Mediterranean coal freights, of 50 per cent. in
Black Sea homeward freights, and of 50 to 60 per cent to
and from some of the Baltic ports. The American and Baltic
wood, East India out and home, and indeed freights gene-
rally, though affected, are not enhanced to The same extent.
We refrain from making specific quotations, as the market
assumes so many phases in a limited time that the figures
of to. day are no criterion of what may be obtainable when
your offers reach us. We may mention' that within the
last few days the following have been current :—Malta,
341 to 351; Toulon, Algiers, Bona, Stora, or Cagliari, 341;
Carthagena, 171 10s to 181; Odessa and Azof, 50s and 60s
for backward ships, 62s 6d and 72s 6d for extremely
forward and Scandinavian ships, with intermediate rates
regulated by position for vessels on the way ; Danube, lls
to 6d ; Alexandria, Ss 6d to 6s ; Nantes, 3s 9d to 4s ;
Cronstadt, 2s 6d. Oats : Archangel, 4s 3d ; and Sundswall,
503. - P.S. The Corn Market has declined again to-day ;
grain chartering will naturally be less brisk.
The prospects of the Indigo sale, which commences
to-day, are referred to in the following terms by
Messrs. Layton, Hulbert, and Co., under date this
day :
that 7,990 chests should have been delivered within a
space of four months, and those monthsmarked by a general
depression of trade and the prospects of war, resulting in
actual hostilities, sufficiently evinces a wholesome and steady
consuption of the dye. It is to the early arrivals of the
Bengal crop, and the natural desire to secure a chalice of sell-
ing now that war has commenced, and the value of money has
risen; that so large a quantity as 11,664 chests is thrust into
the catologue for the sale commencing to-morrow. In these
circumstances it is not likely that the demand will be great,
and we may look to one-half the indigo being withdrawn as
the sale proceeds. The character of the new Bengals is, with
very few exceptions, exceedingly defective; attributable, no
doubt, to the very unfavourable season for manufacturing.
The stock, notwithstanding the early imports, is smaller than
on the Ist May in any year, but one, since 1844. About
8,000 chests only of the last crop remain to be taken into
our warehouses within the next ten months, and with the
present scale of delivery the stocks must undergo considerable
diminution in the latter months of the year.
The supply of Money has been much better, and
notwithstanding a fair average demand was yester-
day experienced at the Bank, the operations were
not important in the open market. The minimum
rate of 41 per cent. is, however, still charged in the
majority of cases, but it is evident, from the dispo-
sition manifested by the brokers to take in paper,
that without any unfavourable contingency arises
there will be less pressure encountered.
The £2.000,000 Exchequer. Bonds falling due
yesterday were discharged with punctuality at the
1 Bank of England, and the larger portion of the
capital at once found its way into the market for
re-investment.

A general improvement has taken place in the Stock
Exchange. The public are absorbing Stoek upon an
extensive scale. Consols have experienced the important
rise of per cent., and closed with firmness at almost the
best point ofithe day. The rebound from the lowest point
of the late depression is fully 3 per cent. In the other
