A sharp Yankee went into the shop of a dry
goods dealer down East, and thus accosted the pro-
prietor :—" Squire, do ycu trade P" " Considerable," was
the reply. " I mean do you dicker ?" " Some; whatye
get ter dicker ?" "A egg." " Whatyo want for a egg ?''

" Guess I'd like a darnin' needle." The required needle
was dickered for the egg, and the Yankee was going away,
when he turned and said, " squire do you treat ?" " Well,
I don't mind if I do," replied the good-natured tradesman.
They repaired to an adjacent tavern, and the usual Bour-
bon was produced. " Hold on," cried the Yankee ; "my
chist's weak, and I never could take whisky without a egg
in it." The generous shopkeeper handed him the dickered
egg, but without asking for his needle back again. The
Yankee broke the shell on the edge of the glass, when he
exclaimed " Geewilikins I this egg's g.t two yolks. Guess
you must gin me anDther darnin' needle, squire."—Zrew

'TIE LATE OUTRAGE EY BRICKMAKERS.—At the
Salford Town Hall, yesterday, Patrick Cullen, of
Openshaw, labourer, was charged with being concerned in
the late outrage at the briekcroft of Mr A. Ashworth,
Regent-road. Police-constable Keogh said he took the
defendant into custody in consequence of information
which he hod obtained.—A brickmaker, named Briscoe,
said—About twelve o'clock on the night of the 24th of
June, he, with several other brickmak,Ts went to Mr
Ashworth's croft to pass the night, He had been in the
habit of sleeping at the place. A short time after he had
arrived, he saw several men go towards the croft, with
some instrument in their hands, and commence destroying
a number cf the bricks. He recognised the prisoner. In
cross-examination the witness said that, although he had
seen the placard offering a reward of £lOO for the apprehen-
sion of the guilty parties, he did not inform the police, be-
cause he was afraid of getting into trouble. Mr Ashworth
said he visited the croft on the morning of the 25th of June,
when he found that about 70,000 bricks had been destroyed.
The damage amounted to £3O. The last witness had been
in the habit of sleeping in the croft. The prisoner was

At Paris, this day, according to Mr. Reuter's
telegram, the Three-per Cent. Rentes were 66f. 07c.
Several important alterations are exhibited in
the vveekly return of the Bank of France, mostly
favourable in their character. The loans have been
reduced £390,000, and the discounts £176,000; but
there is also a falling off in the bullion, the dimi-
tuition amounting to £40,000. The Treasury
belatices have been trenched upon to the extent of
£1,474,000. The notos in circulation have been
increased 1.:226,400, and the current accounts
£173,300.

Only a limited amount of business has been
transacted in the English Stock Market, and the
Operators are more engaged in discussing the pro-
gress of the debates than in opening fresh
engagements either for a rise or fall in prices.

but the quotation for the August account remains
steady at 901 f. The New Threes and Reduced
Annuities are 8911 ; the March Exchequer Bills
are marked 87 oiscount ; India 5 per Cents., 104 k
; and Enfticed ditto, 105.

Market have not materially altered quotations.
