MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS

THURSDAY.

POST.—The news from the East caused some addi-
tional depression in the Stock Markets this morning, and,
until after the separation of the Bank Directors, who held
their weekly court to-day, there was still an apprehension
of a further advance in the rate of interest and discount,
which necessarily tended to keep down the quotations ; but
it was ascertained some time before the close of business
that the charge of 51 per cent. would not be disturbed for
the present, and subsequently to this there was a trifling re-
action. Consols left of at 93! to i for the opening ; Ex-
chequer Bills 255. to 275. prem. ; and Bank Stock at
191 to 2.

FALL OF SNOW.—On the evening of the
27th, between the hours of six and seven o'clock, there
was a heavy pealing of thunder and an exceeding great
fall of snow on the mountains of Latera, opposite Castleot-
way. The fall of snow was limited to an extent of throe
quarters of a mile, and it was about four inches deep.
.Nenagh Guardian.

The wheats and barleys are now very generally
in ear; at the Park, Summerfield, Conheath, and other
localities, the oats are also fully shot, and although this is
not generally the case, there will be lots of corn ragging to
greet the anniversary of Kelton hill fair. —Dunyries
Courier.

CURRICULUM.—A unique and matchless eques-
trian morning fete took place on Tuesday at Vauxhall.
The arena was most tastefully formed in front of
that part of the Gardens where the Grand Nassau Bal-
loon ascends from the interior, forming an eques-
trian promenade, the exterior gracefully decorated with
emblematical devices, denoting the starting and winning
posts, &c., the pedestrians having the grand gallery in
front, affording a beautiful view. Between two and there
o'clock the Gardens (which, for the short time, have been
wonderfully improved) showed symptoms, by the elegant
and numerous assemblage of visitors, that the proprietors
had something like a bumper, and then, in all the splen-
dour of the olden time, came forth the Ducrow, glittering in
gold, with his splendid stud of unrivalled beauty. All that
Italy could do in races, when this now wealthy empire
was but little known, was here shown to-day. Steeds un-
rode by men, and two-wheeled chariots driven by Africa's
sons was gallantly contested by those of paler hue. Danes
as fair as Britain's isles produce, rode the circles in gal-
lant contest for the bay-wreath prize, and the four-in-hand
unharnessed steeds, models fur the sculptor, the gallant
guider standing on the rear horses, bravely driving the
leaders in noble contest, with their courageous competi-
tors. This, to be believed, must be seen ;itis a noble
and manly exhibition of each rider, conducting four horses
in a well contested race. Some beautiful ponies, rode by
infants, afforded much amusement, and at this season,
when our juveniles are at home, would afford them great
delight.

ORANGE PROCESSION/.—The Dublin Even-
ing Post after expressing a hope that the Orangemen of
Ireland will not :disturb the peace, says " From accounts
received last Tuesday morning from various quarters, we
feel almost satisfied that we shall not have to record any
breach of order in the north of Ireland."

STATE AND PROSPECTS OF THE IRON
TE&DR. —We learn from a very elaborate paper read by
Mr. J. Johnson before the Liverpool Polytechnic Society,
that there are at this time in Scotland fifty furnaces in blast,
five out, seven building, and twenty-six contemplated. In
South Wales, 122 furnaces in blast, seven out, thirty-one
building, and ninety-one contemplated. In 1740 the
annual produce of the kingdom was 17,350 tons of cast
iron. Mr. Johnson thinks it probable, from the above data,
that in 1842 Scotland alone will produce upwards of
360,000 tons, and that within five years 1,000,000 tons will
be produced annually in South Wales.-211anchester
Guardian.

ALARMING OCCURRENCE.—On Tuesday night,
about eleven o'clock, as a young lady named Watson was
dressing for a party at the house of Mrs. Phillips, in Up-
per Harley-street, she accidentally set fire to the bed-
hangings, and it was a most miraculous circumstance that
she escaped without any personal injury ; two constables of
the D division, who were called in, extinguished the
flames, which fortunately did no great mischief.
A GIPSY MARRIAGE.—A novel and' some-
what interesting spectacle was, a few days ago, exhibited
in the Muir of Stracathro,--namely, the celebration of a
marriage among that ancient and mysterious race, the
gypsies. They sought no matrimonial certificate, nor were
their banns of marriage ever proclaimed,--neither were
nuptials solemnized by the sacred sanction of parson,
priest, or prelate,—yet they were happily united, though
we know not the condition of the engagement. The
scene, though humble, had its eharms. The party, all
dressed out in their best attire, gathered round the patriarch
of the clan, who, acting as priest, united the loving couple,
to the satisfaction of all present. The ceremony over,
the feast was spread, " not in the hall," but in the open
air, on a heather carpet.—llfontrose Review.
Friday last, being the anniversary of her Ma-
jesty's Coronation, was appointed for the dinner of the
Kidderminster Working Men's Association, which i
n favour was

tended to operate as a powerful demonstration
Reform. We rejoice to say it has fully answered
of p principle
e"
.
pectation of its projectors ; and, the d
it elicited be but carried out in practice, Mr. Godson will,
to a certainty, at the next election, give place to a sound
constitutional Reformer.— IVorcestershire Chronicle.
THE LATE MURDER IN CADOGAN-PLACE.
—lt is very generally believed that the reason assigned by
IVarchant in the statement he bas made for the commission
of the dreadful murder in Cadogan.place is not true; in.
deed it is even said in quarters most likely to be the best
informed
on thi„ubject, that he has made another and a
very different confession. It is, however, a singular fact,
that when the body was viewed by the Jury at Mr. Edgill's
house, and some of her clothes cut off, the garters were
nowhere to be found, nor has any discovery been made of
them up the present time.
THE IRISH Poo R.—The poor of Ireland are
in great distress, owing to the scarcity and dearness of po-
tatoes. Lord Leitrim, we learn from the Dublin Evenino
Post, has contributed largely to alleviate the sufferings of
his destitute fellow-countrymen, and the laity as well as the
clergy of both persuasions are uniting on this neutral ground
of benevolence. A resident proprietor, however, of the
Cloone parish has declined giving any subscription on ac-
count Of the (falsely stated) lawless state of the peasantry
there for the last two or three years.
