THE BAIONIA L AND ECCLESIASTICAL
ANTIQUITIES OF SCOTLAND.
By R. W. BILLINGS and W. BURN, Architects.
(From the " Quarterly Review," June, 1849.)
" The ' Baronial and Ecclesiastical Antiquities' of Mr. Billings is
the first work which, either i•i point of extent or of style, has any
claim to be regarded as a collection worthy of the remains yet spared
to Scotland. It u .der takes to give at least one view of every an-
cient edifice worthy of notice, while the more remarkable are to be
presented in the detail of two or more engravings. So far as the
publication has proceeded—and it has now been in progress for more
than two years—it is worthy of all praise. The plates are large
enough to admit of the distinct delineation of minute peculiarities.
Mr 1"; Rings is a masterly draftsman, well skilled in the history and
ch.iractcristics of architectural style, baring an excellent eye for
persp.tctive, an i uniting scrupulous fidelity to good tuote and a
knowledge of ant. His cngrevers do him juFtice ; and, altogether,
nothing can be more satisfactory than his representations.
" We return to Mr. Billings' work, to add au expression of hope
that it will receive that liberal patronage te, which its merit gives
it so just el lin."
The First Volume, comprising Parts I. to XV., is published, con-
taining Sixty Engravings on Steel, handsomely bound in cloth.
Price in medium 4t0., 21. ; in imperial 410., 111. 4s. ; India Proofs,
4/. 14s.

The Second Volume, comprising Parts XVI. to XXX., uniform
In size and price with the above, will be published on the Ist of
August.

The work will be completed in Sixty Parts. Four large Plates in
each Part, by J. 11. Le Keux, and other Artists celebrated for the
accuracy and beauty of their architectural engravings, illustrate the
more important subjects ; and nearly One Hundred Engravings on
Wood have been devoted to the minor Antiquities. The Plates are
accompanied by a Letterpress description, in which the history and
traditions of each edifice is briefly given, and reference made to
such passages in our Historians and Novelists as relate to them.

LAYS 01? THE SCOT FISH CAVALIERS,
and other Poems.

By WILLIAM E. AYTOUN,
Professor of Rhetoric in the University of Edinburgh.
(From the " Quarterly Review," June.)
" Professor Aytoun's Lays of the Scottish Cavaliers—a volume of
verse which shows that Scotland has yet a poet. Full of the true
fire, it now stirs and swells like a trumpet note—now sinks in ca-
dences end and wild as the wall of a Highland dirge."

(From the" Times," May 31.)
" Such lines fix themselves in the memory as the first-loved
melodies of childhood. We have read them with great enjoyment,
and now heartily thank the author for his delightful volume : the
prose notes and illustrations of which are as interesting as the verse
is admirable."

Wiliam Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh and London.

U' 1 E FREACII REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.

The Legislative Assembly, on the motion of Al. DE
MELAN, agreed to appoint a Committee to consider
what measures should be adopted with the view of
carrying out the 13th article of the Constitution
relative to public assistance to the destitute. lhe
result of their deliberations will probably be the
enactment of a poor-law.
The following motion of thanks to the army of
Italy was then proposed :—" The National Assembly,
on learning the success of the expeditionary forces in
Italy, passes a vote of thanks to the army and its
chiefs, who have known how to conciliate the rights
of war with the consideration due to the capital of
the Christian world."

AMERICAN NEWS,
LivEnroor., JULY 10.—By the Royal mail steam.
ship Cambria, Ciiptr.in Shannon, we have advices from
New York to the 27th, and Halifax to the 30th ult.
The 111ber;oa, Uaptain _one, arrived at NOW York
on the 30th ult.

The deaths in New York and o4:her parts of the
American continent from cholera were rapidly in-
creasing in number. In New York, from the 19th
to the 26th of June, there had been 159 deaths out of
333 cases.

The Canadian intelligence is very uninteresting.
St. John the Baptist's day was celebrated on the 25th
ult. with great eclat. An immense procession of
French Canadians paraded the city, and the Catholic
churches were crowded. We are happy to state that
no collision took place, all the reformers of French
descent behaving very peaceably. On the 26th, flour
was quoted 20 9, and exchange was 11 per cent. for
bank-notes.

We have no later advices from California than
those brought by the steam. ship Crescent City. An
interAsting letter from General P. F. Smith, to a
friend in Washington, has been published in the
columns of the Union. The source from which it
comes gives increased weight and interest to its state-
ments. The following is an extract :

richly ro.warded as the most approved machines from
other countries. Good luck in the labourer choosing
his location has more than compensated for
want of skill. The real difficulties lie in
the hardships to be encountered in the remote
uninhabited spots whore the gold is found. Wa'st of
food, overworking, excited by success, bad water, expo-
sure, and dissipation—all combine to exact a heavy tii-
bute f.)r the wealth when found. All are not successful,
but every one works on, hoping that the next blow of
his pick will discover a treasure that will surpass all he
has hitherto heard of. Many die unheeded, many come

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, JUNE 27.
The Crops—Our season is propitious for the harvest—
after a cool, (imp spring, warm but bright weather,
bringing rapidly to maturity the wheat and other winter
grain, and favouring very much the Indian corn plant.
Our surplus of cereal grain bids fair to be very large.
Disney Market—Our money market is abundantly
supplied, and the prices of stocks are high. The demand
for Eurupean bills is not large by this packet, sellers
rather reserving theniselves for the packet of the second
week in July, when a conbiderable amount of dividends
to be remitted may possibly cause a better demand at
higher rates. Bills on London rule from 81 to 91.
United States Sixes of '67 bring 117; ditto Treasury
Notes. A loan of about 1,750,000 dolls. was negotiated
by the sta,ta of New York last wee k, on a 6 per cent.
stock of 16 years' interest, payable quarterly, which
brought on an average more than IQ per cent. prem.
More than eight millions were bid, and a larger amount
than the whole bum proposed to be borrowed was bid for
on foreign account. As it is Rothschilds took about
400,000 dollars.

Illinois Dividend—Notice has been given that a divi-
dend of " 5 dulls. on each 1,000 dolls." will be paid upon
the stock of the state of Illinois at the agency in this
city, on and after the 2d of July next.
PennFylvania Interest—The Philadelphia bulletin
says, that the State Treasurer has made an arrangement
with four of the Philadelphia banks, whereby the state
interest, due in August next, will be paid in par funds.
In order to carry this very desirable arrangement into
effect, it is understood that the collectors of tolls and
taxes throughout the commonwealth are directed to re-
ceive no notes in piyment except the relief issues and
the notes of such banks as will redeem the same in par
funds in Philadelphia.

Breadstuffs—There has been quite a moderate busi-
ness transacted in flour during the last fortnight, and
prices remain without any material change. The Eng-
lish orders are mostly limited at 25c. to 50e. per barrel
under our present quotations, and the principal transac-
tions on that account are for uninspected and fine at 4
dolls. to 4 dolls. 25c. per barrel. Indian corn is in good
request for export, and the clearances are large.
Present appearauces indicate that the coming crop of
wheat and earn will be an abundant one, but it is too
early yet to judge with any certainty. The exports
from this port to Great Britain and Ireland, for the
fortnight ending on the 19th inst., consisted of 30,320
barrels of 11 ..ur, 16,205 bushels of wheat, and 413,768
bushels of ludiau corn. Freights of corn are a trifle
better, the last engagements having been at 611 to 61d.,
and on flour Is, 6W per barrel to Liverpool.
Freights—To London, Vi e notice engagements of 2,000
barrels North County turpentine at 25.; 1,000 barrels
oil cake, 2s, 6d.; and 100 tons provisions, &c,, 305. To
Liverpool, 150,000 bushela corn and wheat, in bulk, at
641,1. to 6id.; 5,000 to 6,000 barrels flour (none yester-
daN ), Is. 6(1.; cotton, 1 doll. per bale and 1.1. per lb.;
an,' bacon, lard, &c., 22,4. 6d. To Ireland, we heard of

Governor Hinckley, for Iklfast, at 7d. for corn. 'To

of the AuteticA's litvourable adviser, when, with an an-
tiro demand, partly on speculation, prices advanced
fully *I% to ie. par lb , and our quotations now stand
that much higher than on the 15th inst. Since our last
there has continued a good demand, and the improve-
ment noticed above bas been well maintained. The
reuipta at all the shipping poi is are 2.635,789 bales
against 2,193,109 to same dates last year—an increase
this season of 442,680 bales. The total foreign export
this year is 472,932 bales more than last—say, 345,340
baks inerease to Great Britain, 62;081 increase to France,
49,277 increase to north of Europe, and 16 234 increase
to other foreign ports. The shipments from southern
to northern ports are 160,767 bales more this season
than last, and there is a d crease in stock of 105,913
bales.
