MANCHESTER, Feb. 19.
The show of samples of Foreign Wheat was liberal this morn-
ing, but the attendance of dealers was small ; it was offered to
deliver in a fortnight at 6d. per bushel lower than last week ; fine
English and Irish are each 3d. to 4d. per bushel cheaper. The
show of Oats was not large, however, last week's prices could
not be obtained. Boiling Pease are cheaper. New Beans are
Is. to Is. Gd. per quarter lower. Grinding Barley and M,lt are
dull sale. English Flour is full 2s. per bag, and Foreign Is. to
Is. lid. per barrel lower than last week. Oatmeal barely supports
last Saturday's rates.

No case worth reporting occurred in the
Courts of King's Bench, Common Pleas, or Old Bailey,
this morning.

" Tell your mistress that I have torn the
curtain," said a gentleman to the punning domestic of his
lodging•house. " Very well, Sir, mistress will put it down
as rent."

Mr. HARVEY, during his canvass, was asked
whether he was not a supporter of taxation. .1 Sir,"
replied the worthy candidate, " I am an attorney, and I
defy you to point out one of the profession to whom the
very word ' taxation' is not hateful!"
GOOD RECRUITING.-A serjeant who was
recruiting in Leicestershire last week, told his Captain he
had got him an extraordinary recruit. " Aye !" raid the
Captain, " what is he ?" " A butcher, Sir," replies the
serjeant, " and you'll find him very useful, for we have en-
listed two sheep-stealers in the company, before him."
A COINCIDENCE.—How similar is the Count
D'AaTots of 1799 to the CHARLES X. of 1830 ! BEZEN-
VAL, after describing the Prince's indignation against those
who sought to overturn the throne, adds, yet " without
forces, and above all, without experience, he allowed him-
self to be led by a man, the most incapable of good counsel;
one who was known to have failed, from his impudence,
in every thing that he undertook. This man, having a
great interest to make common cause with the Prince, re-
moved from around him all the friends who could have en-
lightened him as to his true situation. The Count n'Art-
' TOIS continued to consider himself chief of the party, be-
cause the Noblesse Caine universally to pour their pla'nts
in his ear. He always put one of them by his side at Ma-
dame Dr POLIGNAC'S, where he dined every day. [IC
courted and flattered them, as if men, money, or real suc-
cour could be thus obtained. Wanting these, he but
opened the eyes of the demagogues, and became not so
much the object of their fears as of their observation and
hatred."—Details Ilistoriques.
