GALASILIELS.- LARGE STOCK SALE,

On Friday last, one of the largest and most im-
portant Border stock sales of the season came off at
Galashiels, at the auction ring of Mr. Henderson.
The stock belonging to Mr. James Leithead, farmer,
Lan ghaugh, consisted of both fat and extra grazing
sheep and cattle, and the sale drew together a great
attendance of farmers, dealers, and butchers, from
Fife, Edinburgh, Kelso, Hawick, Musselburgh,
and the neighbourhood, all of whom were bent
on doing business. After lunch at twelve, served
in a large marquee on the ground, where the
chair was taken by Mr. Peak of Craigend, judge
of the sale, and " Success to the Sale" having been
pledged, the company adjourned to the pens, and
the half and three-part fat hoggs were first brought
into the ring, numbering 350. These were in prime
condition, and were quickly sold in fives and tens at
an average of 445. 6d. per head, the top price being
475, The competition for these lots was very close,
and a good number was knocked down to Mr.
Buosie, Fife. The half and three-parts bred
grazing hoggs, in number 600, were next put up,
and excited even a keener competition than the
former. These were sold in scores, and re-
alised prices ranging per head from 325. to 360.,
the average being 345. 6d. Next. came the short-
horned and polled fat cattle, twenty of which were
knocked down at an average of £l5 10s. The
demand for the grazing cattle was very brisk, and
these ranged from £9 to £ll 15s. But the greatest
attention was directed to the young or ono-year-old
shorthorned bulls, of which kind Mr. Leithead is a
well-known successful breeder. Nino beautiful
animals, both as regards symmetry and colours,
were turned out, which were quickly disposed of at
prices from £ll to £l6—the average £l2 15s. The
whole of these large lots were passed under the
hammer in little more than two hours.—Scotsman.

Tll.O ROYAL EXBIBITION COMMIS-
SIONERS AND TILE .REPRES.ENTA-
TIT)-ES OF THE 10BEIGN PRESS.

1 The Yord of yesterday has the following :—"We
are informed that the Royal Commissioners of the
London Exhibition have refused to grant tickets of
admission to the representatives of foreign journals'.
We must be permitted to remark on this singular
proceeding. We are aware that, notwithstanding
the act of union,British hospitality is quite distinct
from the disinterestedness proverbially attributed
to Scotch hospitality. In London, if you wish to see
the monuments, museums, churches, &c., you must
pay for passing from one room to another, from ono
story to another. The trafficking genius of the mo-
dern Carthage is to be discovered in this extremely
inconvenient union of fiscal formalities and national
memories. But if there was an occasion in which
these utilitarian habits should be departed from,
it was this of the Universal Exhibition—this con-
vocation of the civilised world, who were asked to
bring
to the capital of Great Britain the tribute of
their sympathy, and the treasures of their LtboLr.
If any
,privilege was allowable it should be in fa-
vour of those, without whose publicity the grandest
and most encyclopaedic exhibitions would be itc-
stricted and confined. Surely the Universal Exhi-
bition has not been designed for some hundred
thousand visitors, All Europe ought to participate
in the information to be derived from this ecumeni-
cal council of contemporary art and industry. And
who but the press will set loose and give wings to
this information P In denying to the representa-
tives of the press of Europe facilities to which they
are fairly entitled,there would be at once a shocking
want of logic and a pitiful shabbiness. If the London
Exhibition be only a speculation, if it be not a
monument raised to intelligent and liberal Eng.-
land, as well as to laborious Europe, we no longer
recognise in this congress of manufacturers,
merchants, and artists, assembled from all parts
of the globe, guests invited to a pacific
tournament—to an interational fete—but merely
supernumeraries, who have come unwittingly to
give a varied representation for the benefit of
England.

A correspondent of the Opinion Nationale remarks
on the too pronounced desire of the Exhibition
commission. to make money out of an undertaking
which ought tti have been conducted in a more
popular and generous'sPirit. The writer concludes
his letter by saying, "the English can study with
profit the finest contributions cent to the Exhibition
Palace, which, built of brick, surmounted by two
glass bells, is in most horrible taste. Perhaps them
never existed anything more ugly. Thi,`, is not an
individual and French opinion—it is unanjmous.
The English themselves go so far as to say it is a
stable."
