FANCY STOCKS.

`'PALL.STREET.—. STATE OF THE MARKET.—The Board
4.)f Brokers is shaved very thin, and its condition now is
nearly trapsparent. Our current notes are uncurrent, and
are oftener counted than discounted. Brokers are now
breakers, and many a floating capital has been sunk in them.
It was proposed at a meeting of merchants yesterday, that
a petition should be presented to the Common Council for
changing the first letter in the name of the street from a
W. to an F.

Dealers in hardware say they never found things as bard
as now ; that tin plates are fist, lead heavy, iron dull,
spades not trumps, and more rakes in the market than in-
quired after; brass is, however, in demand for politicians ;
brads are also in request, but holders cannot be got to
fork them out. Nails won't go by pushing, and have to be
driven.

The Dry Goods merchants say that their case is hard,
and complain that Feople prefer bank rags to theirs.
In Paints everything looks black, though many attempt
to varnish the thing over.

Shippers of Ashes have had to add sackcloth to them,
as prospects are by no means pearly, and prices are going
to pot.
The Timber trade is pining, and holders have to rest
upon their oars to stave off the pressure.
There is no spirit in the Rum trade, and holders of Vi-
negar look sour ' • Champagne, however, is brisk.
Rhubarb and Senna are quite drugs, but there is a con-
tumption of Brimstone for matches ; many having lately
been made.

Since the disposal of an article in the fur cap line at
the church door, we have heard of no further transaction.
Holders of indigo look blue, but those deep read are
not green enough to think that a symptom of the trade is
dykg.
Starch is stiffning, and paper is stationary.
In the meal market things are flowery, but the millers
say that the high price of wheat goes against their grain,
at which the bakers are also crusty. . . .

The grocers have got along pretty gingerly, but some,
having tasted spice at times, have become peppery.
Tare is no life in dead hogs, but some animation in
old ci eese.
Bills of exchange arc wanted ; those which have crossed
the Atlantic twice arc inquired after.—New York. Lite-
rary Gazette.

THE TREASONABLE ORANGE

CONFEDERACY.

(From the Militia Evening Post.)
The Daputy Grand Mabter of the Orangemen_ hasd
totailv failed in his attempt to prove that any political
euncederacy, in the form of Ribbonism, exists Ireland.
But, rogarding the treasonable Orange_arll.a Confederacy,
denounced havea );
denounced four years ago by P.
had abundant and indisputable evidence and, although
Lord Roden, and other leaders of the Conspirators,
"I solemnly assured the Legislature that the Orange
Soci,:ty has ceased to exist, and that there is no such
thing as' an Orangeman in Ireland, the functionaries
of the Society have thrown off all disguise, and are
proclaiming to the world that it is, and has been, all
along, in active operation. We copy the following from
the last number of the Limerick Chronicle:—
GRAND ORANGE LOLGE.—The Grand Lodge has
adopted the folloaing resolution :—" Reolved, That this
Grand Ledge do pledge itself collectively and individually,
and solemn), recommend to the brethren througho the
kingdom, not to support any te
at a
general elec-
tion, no• matter how high his pro'ession of Conservative
principles, who will not promise to oppose the annual grant
to Maynooth College, inasmuch as it is our decided and
diliberbte opinion, that a college est iblished for the disse-
• cf the degrading and soul-destr.ying doctrines of
nitriao-
pery, is not only a national disgrace, but a national sin.”
In addition, we learn from the .Newry Telegraph,
thgt.the Orangemen of Upper Canada have again placed
in •
communication with the Orange A„0.
themselves
ciation in Ulster. Of course renewed attempts will be
m tde to, spread treason amongst the Queen's troops in
hat Colony.
