BARNET GREAT CATTLE AND BORNE FAlL—This im-
portant and distinguished cattle fair, which is considered
the largest in England, and is held for three days, com-
menced on Tuesday and terminated on Thursday, much
to the satisfaction of a large class of salesmen and breeders
of stock. The demand from the opening to the finish
for the best store beasts of all breeds was exceedingly
active, the Devon, Hereford, and shorthorned beaats
being selected, and selling freely at 101. to 151. and np.
ward,. The horse fair was very attractive for carthorses
and colts. The best carthorses realised 115 to 65 ogaead
each ; middle-size, 30 to 40 guineas ; two-year-old colts,
25 to 35 guineas ; three-years-old, 30 to 40 guineas.
GRAPES.—There are three different kinds of grapes in
the vineyards of Tokay—the Furment, the Haslevelii,
and the Feber-Szollo. It is from the Furment that the
Tokay wine is made. It was at first supposed that this
grape was a native of Italy, but it, is positive that it be.
longs to the family called the mosler grape, which is
found throughout the whole of the Austrian monarchy.
and particularly, under different names, in the vineyards
of Hungary. It is the Fuiment which gives to the
Tokay its peculiar bouquet, but it more particularly
owes it to the soil.
MUNIFICENT DONATION.—The committee of the TANI'
don City Mission has acknowledged a donation of SOOT:,
