Although we have to notice a decided increase in the
arrivals of foreign stock for our market since Ibis day
week, they have been but moderate, the time of year
considered. The total importation has amounted to
3,187 head, against 3,640 head at the corresponding
Feriod in 1848, and 4,129 head at the same time in 1847.
We may observe, however, that the improved condition
of the stock has fully made up for the falling-off in
nurnt,er.

' Scuts sold at 3s 10d, but the general top figure for Beef
did not exceed is 8d per 81bs. At the close of
business a good clearance was effected. From Nor-
folk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we re-
ceived about 1,600 Scots, homebreds, and short horns;
from the Western and Midland districts, 380 Pere-
fords, runts, Devons, and Irish beasts, from other parts
of Evg,land, 600 of various breeds; and from Seotland,
320 burned and polled Seot,,. We were very largely
supplied with Sheep, as will be seen on reference to our
returns at foot. The primest old Downs and the best
halt-breeds were in moderate request, at stationary
Iricee. All other breeds of Sheep moved off heavily, at
barely last- week's currencies. Lambs, the supply of
which was extensive, were a slow inquiry. In value,
however, we have no charge to notice. There was a
large number of calves on offer. All kinds of veal ruled
heavy, at, in some instances, drooping prices. The Pork
traclewas in a very inactive state, at previous quotations,

IJoo "1-zi FROM DROWNING BY A NEWFOUNDLAND
ow Wednesday week, two young men from
for s Theatre, in Chadwick Orchard. had hired a boat,
turti%silort excursion on the river Ribble. On their re-
lark; ‘43, commenced the dangerous practice of " sky-
of when suddenly one of them fell backwards out
Peri," boat, and immediately sunk. Fortunately, a
the ./ on the shore perceived the accident, and almost at
Isiel'ae moment when hearing the plunge, a powerful
the 8 °Lindland dog sprung into the river, and reached
r_sePot just as the body rose. On the cap of the man
nting itself to view, it was seized by the dog, but
lee 7 loosely tied it gave way, and the body sunk a
his 91 time. The dog, however, finding be had missed
"
t), object, abandoned the cap, and barking furiously,re-
tned • •
he
arltiltin time to seize the drowning man by the arm as
rose to the surface. This hold he cautiously
"I.l._'n.qutshed, and the collar of the young man's coat was
with him,
grasped in the dog's powerful jaws, who swam
vlll him, keeping his heed above water till he re ached
"e shore. Atr.-Samuel Wild had by this time gone in
to the poor fellow's assistance, but the dog was before
1,714, otherwise he would have inevitably been drowned.

Tali CLERGY OF CANTON.—In Canton there are
one hundred and twenty-three temples, dedicated and
e"seerated to the three heathen sects, namely, Taou,
li
---ucl(lb, and Ju-kea-sta or Confucius ; to these various
tinges belong about 2,000 priests, and 1,000 nuns,
re are maintained out of the funds appertaining to the
:era' places of worship, the revenues of which ari:e from
Z,tes, and money testowed hy the Emperor, and wealthy
leviduals for the maintenauce of these temples of sin
And vice. The priests and nuns are a vile, dissolute,
c,rfufligste, illiterate set, the former frequently seeking
th;;Igo in a temple, and becoming priests to avoid paying
Penalty of theft or murder; whilst others will ern-
if,„pr
bracei, the priestly profession, having no other means of
e;,„,tu°od. and from being too lazy to work. The
rpriests, set aside for the maintenance of temples,
and nuns in Canton, exceeds 108,3351.—China
and the Chinese.Gothi
Gothic exemplars multiply apace, and architects
are entured a sate road, though it be a low one, and are
,r.ed the trouble of thinking. Soon there will be no-
thing left to draw but the nail-holes, and this will pro,
4°137 be done, so that the mediaeval disposition of these
mayte_ be rigorously followed. Ragardt das evidences of
.;-!c spirit in which the Gothic architects proceeded, and
illustrations of the principles which guided them,—as
materialsof for us to work with, and suggestions by means
which we may proceed onwards, these illustrations
are of great value ; but if used only for the purpose of
servile imitation, as is too much the case, so far from- ad.
vaneing architecture amongst us, they will necessarily
tend to stay its progress. Nothing great in art can be
_done without progressive efforts; retrogression, except so
far as may be necessary to get out of a wrong road into
the right one, is not the way forward.—Builder.
A CHINESE Hoc ARTH.—Upon closely examining
these drawings, their manifold beauties became more and
more apparent,and the opium smoker's progress would not
disgrace Hogarth, either for conception or handling; this
series is painfully correct in all its details, as those who
have watched the career of art opium devetec can testify;
the accuracy and fidelity observed by Chinese artistsgene-
rally, contrasts strangely, and at times amusingly, with the
a#l attempts made by our own artists, to represent Chinese
customs and manners. Lutn-qua pointed out these ex-
traordinary discrepancies in an English work, saying,
" Suppose Englis man no plenty know why for talk lie
pigeon all some dat ; me tinh he plenty footo: Chinaman
no all some foolo, what see can do, what no see no
can do;" and in these sentiments we coincide with Lum •
qua, the Sir Thomas Lawrence and the Jlogarth of
Uhina.—China and the Chinese.
