C OLONI A.L.
TEA.--The dealings have been of a very limited descrip-
tion. Prices, however, are generally well sustained. The
public sales of Assam commenced to-day.
SUGAR.—OnIy a moderate business has been reported on
West India, and there is little change of importance to
notice in prices. Business in the refined market has been
confined principally to immediate home requirements.
COFFEE.—For Plantation and Native Ceylon there has
continued to be a fair inquiry at full rates ; other descrip-
tions remain without change in values.
RICE.—The demand has been rather more active, good
and fine descriptions of East India having realised fully
previous quotations.
SALTPETRE.—A rather large business has been trans-
acted, and the tendency of prices has been upwards.
TALLOW.—The advices from St. Petersburg, coupled
with the unsatisfactory state of political affairs in Poland,
has caused considerable agitation in the tallow market, a
large speculative business having been done for forward
delivery. P.Y.C. on the spot is quoted 435. 9d. to 445.,
and last three months' delivery 40s. 6d. per cwt.

Prince Frederick William of Prussia, cousi
to the King, is seriously ill. The last bulletin
published states that the Prince has not slept so
tranquilly as on the preceding night, but otherwise
there is no change in the situation. The Prince still
possesses all his faculties, but does not speak. His
sons, the Princes George and Alexander, have ar-
rived at Berlin.

A SUFERANNUATED POST-CHAISE.—It WaS
post-chaise taken off its axletree and wheels, and
plumped down on the clayey soil among a ragged growth
of vegetables. It was a post-chaise not even set straight
upon the ground, but tilted over as if it had fallen out of a
balloon. It was a post chaise that had been a long time in
those decayed circumstances, and against which scarlet
beans were trained. It was a post-chaise patched and
mended with old tea-trays, or with scraps of iron that
looked like them, and boarded up as to the windows, but
having a knocker on the off-side door. Whether it was
a post-chaise used as tool-house, summer-house, cr
dwelling-house, I could not discover, for there was nobody
at home at the post-chaise when I knocked, but it was cer-
tainly used for something, and locked up. In the wonder
of this discovery, I walked round and round the post-chaise
many times, and sat down by the post-chaise, waiting for
further elucidation. None came.—Dickens's " All the
Year Round."
Bloodin left Southampton for Gibraltar in the
Ripon steamer, and from Gibraltar the hero of Niagara will
prooeed to Cadiz.
