MANCHESTER, SEPT. 8. For the very choicest
descriptions of flour a rather better demand has been ex-
perienced during the. week at prices varying but little
from those current on the preceding market day; and
for a few parcels of new, and partly new, a tolerably
free sale was found at extreme rates. For middling
kinds, however, the sale has continued exceedingly
slow, whilst in proportion as the quality was inferior or
doubtful the depression and difficulty of disposal has in-
creased, and the little business transacted in such va-
rieties could only be effected by accepting offers at low
and somewhat irregular prices. Oatmeal was in very li-
mited request, and further receded in value. Coastwise
and from Ireland the arrivals at Liverpool still come for-
ward very sparingly, but from abroad the imports of
wheat and barley are to a moderate amount, and liberal
of Indian corn and barrel flour. Our market this morn-
ing was of a lifeless character, and wheat must be noted
ld to 2d per 701 b cheaper than on this day se'cnight. As
respects flour, the state of the trade is exactly described
in the above remarks,.to which we have nothing to add.
Oats and oatmeal moved off very slowly, and were each
rather easier to purchase.
COLCHESTER, SEPT. B.—Harvest being over, large
supplies of wheat are brought into this and other markets
of the district, the greater part of the new crop, and
there has been a further decline this week of from 2s to
35 per quarter. The quotations here to-day were—white
wheat, 47s to 503 ; red, 40s to 47s ; best barley, 30s
to 325.
At Chelmsford yesterday, the deline in wheat was Is
to 125, and the supply large. All other articles were
without alteration.
In Suffolk the supplies of new wheat sent in have also
had a considerable influence on the market.
At Ipswich the best samples were 2s cheaper, and the
inferior scarcely saleable.
There is the same decline for new wheat at Wm.:l-
I bridge, and old was full 4s per quarter lower.
A few samples of new barley have made their appear-
ance in the markets of the county, the quality good—in
fact, in some cases fine, hut were not sold.
WORCESTER, SEPT. 8.
There was a limited attendance of farmers at market
to-day, and although the neighbouring markets have
exhibited during the week a downward tendency in the
price of wheat, prices were fully maintained at to-day's
market, the demand being quite equal to the supply.
The samples of new English brought to market are not
so good in quality as had been anticipated, and it is a
curious fact that while last year.'s produce exhibited a
great superiority in the quality of white over red
wheats—as much frequently as 3s and 4s ber bag—the
contrary is the case with this year's produce, and red
wheat is almost as valuable as white. Best samples of
new white were worth about 16s, and old 17s per bag ;
new red 15s 6d, and old 16e per bag of three bushels ;
foreign from 15s to 16s per bag. Barley in moderate
r• quest, grinding. qualities realizing 3s 4d per bushel,
and.malting 3s 6d on an average. Malt. 78 6d to 8s per
bushel. For old English oats 3s 6d to 4s per bushel was
obtained, while new ranged from 3s to 3s 6d ; Irish new
in hand at 35,. Old beans (English), 14s to 15s per bag;
foreign, 4s to 4s 3d per bushel. Grey peas, 4s to 4s 2d
per bushel ; and boilers, 5s to 5s 4d. Spring vetches,
5s to 6s per bushel. New rye, 4s to 5s per bushel. The
last averages show the price of wheat at 21 5s per
quarter; barley, 1/. 6s ; and beans, li. 9s. 4d.
At Stourbridge market yesterday the supply of wheat
was also limited, and no alteration can be quoted from
last market-day. Barley more in request at fully late
rates. Beans and peas as before. Wheat averages
215 s 7d per quarter.
Stratford-on-Avon market yesterday was flat, and last
week's quotations hardly supported. The top samples
of white wheat fetched 16s 6d per bag, but the average
prices ran from 15s to 16s per bag. New barley 26s
to 28s, and old 28s to 30s per imperial quarter. Beans
lower, and 13s per bag the ruling price.
At Wolverhampton market there was a further reduc-
tion in prices, millers being unwilling to purchase except
at a decline. The farmers were obliged to submit in
order to effect sales, but they declare that ruin must
'follow. Most .of the wheat in this district is now got in,
and beans and barley are being reaped. Preparations are
makini, in the hop country for commencing picking
about 'Wednesday next. The weather has been rather
against the plant for the last three or four days. The
potatoes are being raised very generally. Very few are
blighted. The prices were from 8s to 103 per bag, ac-
cording to quality.
DCALIN, SEPT. 7.—The harvest proceeds with
changeable weather. Supplies increase, and prices con-
tinue to give way. At this morning's market wheat was
offered 2s to 3s below the rates of last Friday. Oats and
barley lower in the same proportion. A slow sale for
Indian corn, without change in price. Flour droops, and
both firsts and seconds are 6d to is lower. Oatmeal, of
course, follows. Foreign white wheat, per 2801 b, 25s to
275; red, ditto, 21s to 245; Irish white wheat, per 2821 b,
20s to 225; ditto, red, 17s to 21s; old oats, per 1981 b,

week-17,143 cwt of flour received; 11,205 sold-6,138
increase. Average, lbs 6d per cwt.
MONTROSE, SEPT. 7.—We had a very thin attendance
at market to-day, and not much business doing.— Wheat,
421b5., 45s to 46s 6d; barley, 531b5., 225; oats, 401 b,;.,
17s 6d to 18s per quarter. The weather has become
very fine for harvest operations, which is now general
in the immediate neighbourhood.
GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 6.—Our cattle
market to-day was largely supplied as to numbers, but
the quality very inferior. By tar the largest proportion
of cattle shown were half-fed Irish bullocks and cows.

Bost ox beef 493 to 525, second 47s to 485, cows 40s to

43s per cwt., sinking the offal. The supply of sheep was
also large, but still deficient in quality. Best aged
wethers sid, second 4id to sd, ewes 4d per lb., sicking
offal. Fine lambs were in great demand. Some lots
sold as high as 14s 9d. Prices may be rated from this
down to 3s.

Cons., SEPT. 7.—We have to report another wee-t,
quiet trade. Our market still continus devoid of life,
and the business doing in all kinds of grain is very re'
stricted. We have very little alteration to notice in Ike
price of wheat, but its value, owing to the bad COO'
Lion in which the article arrives to market has rather
receded than otherwise. In prepared wheat the business
doing is on the most restricted scale at the rates of last
week. A few barrels of new barley have appearea,Bt
market. Its condition however was soft, and the price
obtained low in consequence. The here arriving is takes
readily at late rates. Oats fully support late prices,
find ready purehaiPrs thereat; but their condition, Itl
that of the other descriptions of grain, has been 01°4
affected by the late heavy rains. We have to report .
continuance of a quiet trade in flour, which still MotPt'
only a consumptive sale at late prices. Indian corn al;
pears almost totally neglected, and, if we except a sa
ll
made at auction, we have bad only the veriest re
trade trade in the article. Indian meal meets no 11305;
Potatoes continue in:abuudart supply, and, except in vel

lESTIMONIAL TO GENERAL LORD GottGu.-e-We.
are, generally speaking, averse to testimonials bell
presented to great men on their retiring from office, ea
we have, not unfrequently, opposed them in these colueul
But, it ever there was an exception to be made, it 1.
fitting to make it in favour of the gallant old vete.re-
who is about to take his departure from these 8109;
He leaves us an ill-used man—one who was premature Jf
pushed from his stool to allay a panic in the wind „e
the British public. With that reason let his last crew-;
ing victory bear ample witness. Lord Gough lean
this country as the most hospitable and kindehuarg
person that ever occupied so high a position. His has;
pitality and kindness have not been by fits and starts %re
is often the case). They have been uniform from 1.1',„
commencement of his career to the close, and in niebiaei
those subject to his command happy at his board be uto
ever been cheerfully assisted by Lady Gough, who el-cl
long be remembered for her unaffected good nature a°..
anxiety to promote the social interest of all around 110
No Commander-in-Chief—no public functionary 151 d
world—ever excelled Lord Gough in good feeling 9°4
moral worth. A soldier from his boyhood to the preses
hour, he has carried the frank and unpretending'alanni
ners of the camp into the society he has moved in.; to
without laying claim to " those soft
parts of converee'lve
which chamberers have," he has
contrived to ettaes,' c
unto him all those with whom he has come in Oat%
What may be Lord Gough's personal wishes on thell.-;
sent occasion we have no means of judging, but we ineuglais
the desire of so large a body of officers who shared bo

trifling character) to do him honour on his departure
cannot be distasteful, or other than gratifying.--Weerli

GALWAY, SEPT. s.—The unfortunate man`,Core
mack, who was convicted at the last assizes for the
murder of Miss Prendergast, suffered the extrele
penalty of the law in front of our county prison on last
o,
Monday. At ten minutes to three o'clock the allf
the
tunate man, supported by the Rev. Mr. Commins,
Rev. Mr. Kearney, and preceded by one of the. taTe
keys, walked from the chapel to the check, where
of
shook hands with the governor and all the officers
t;: .
the prison. He here embraced his sister, who w 9
o
loud in her lamentations, and then walked up V) d
press room, where all knelt in prayer. When pinione_ci
the criminal rose and moved to the front of the drop, I°l4
the Rev. Mr. Commins, at his instance, then address
a few words to the crowd. He said, " Good people, that
l
unfortunate man has requested me to declare to you hat
he is about to suffer justly for the awful crime he cs,..wat
milled. He acknowledges his guilt, and declares tile
no other person was present at the commission of Pi
murder but himself." Tho hangman adjusted the "Pe,
about his neck, the bolt was drawn, and he died install
tai.eously and without a struggle.
THE DOUBTFUL ROCK NINETY MILES EAST
MALTA.—The surveying expedition under the comma')

of Sir James Sterling, dispatched from Malta by Vice:
Admiral Sir William Parker, in the Oberon, Rosamon°,,
and Spitfire, on the 21st of August, to seek for tho
hidden danger, whose existence has been as often Oa:
tradicted as affirmed, but on which a tew months It

several successive eays and during the prevalenee,
calm a eatber, run up the paraliels in which it has beef
reported to exist, and itrefully swept and dragged ith
it without success. No soundings were to be met vi
under 300 fathoms, and we think we may now P,retty

confidently affirm that no such rock exists. Inue:it,
