for several days had its effect on the business at our market
yesterday. Wheat was taken sparingly by the millers, at the
rates of Tuesday. Flour was in better demand, but at no
change in price. Indian corn declined 6d per quarter, at
which a fair clearance was effected for parcels ready for deli-
very. Egyptian beans were held with mare firmness than of
late, and there were none to be had under 24s per 4801 b.
Oats, barley, and peas stand quoted as on Tuesday last. There
is no change in prices to-day.

MANCHESTER, JULY 14. Although the splendid weather
experienced throughout the present week has caused a less
animated feeling to pervade the trade, still the supplies of
choice fresh made English flour have been on so limited a scale
that a ready vend was found for such at full and improving
prices. Stale and inferior parcels were, however, quite neg-
lected. Oatmeal ha& continued to meet a slow sale at about
previous rates. At Liverpool the imports of 'oreign and Ca-
nadian grain, flour, and oatmeal, though less extensive than
last week, are still to a fair amount; but with the exception of
about 3.000 loads of malt coastwise, the arrivals of English and
Irish produce are very light. At our market this morning the
best descriptions of wheat were held for rather more money.
Prime fresh flour commanded slightly enhanced terms; but
for other kinds the demand ,was languid at the currency of this
(lay se'nnight. Oats fully supported their previous value;
whist oatmeal, on the contrary, meeting a very limited in-
quiry, must be noted the turn cheaper.

GLASGOW CATTLE MARKET, JULY 12.—The number of
cattle brought forward at our market to-day were—oxen,
612 ; sheep, 1,066 ; lambs, 2,467. Owing to the sultry state
of the weather, the market was inacti re, and sales were re'
ther in favour of the buyer. Best beef, however, maintained
former prices, viz., 50s per cwt, second quality realised front
42s to 45s per ditto, and inferior cow beef from 38s to 40s per
ditto, sinking the offals. The demand for sheep was dull, and,
owing to the scarcity of lambs, prices advanced is per head.
Mutton ranged from 41d to sid per lb.
BELFAST, JULY 12.—Wheat: parcels fresh off command
a small advance, whilst stale and inferior lots are difficult of
sale at former prices. Foreign sells at late prices. Store
lots of Irish, 91 155 to 10/ 16s ; Petersburgh, 81 15s to 9155:
Odesssa, 915 s to 10/ 5s ; Baltic and American, 10151 to 11:
103 per ton. Flour : coarse in fair demand at full price, whlls,'
fine is a slow sale. Barley continues in value, but very little
at market. Oats : fresh lots sell readily at former rates, wilds
stale parcels are a shade lower in value, and slow sale. Oat"
meal sells slowly at a reduction of 24 to 3d per cwt. Indiaa
corn sells pretty freely, at a reduction of 2s 64 on yellow, MT
5s cn white. Yellow, 8/ 5s to Si 7s 6d; white, 81 is 6d toy
lOs per ton. _ _ _

CORK, JULY 13. —The trade during the week, though
has been quiet, and we have little alteration to notice from tu"
quotations of last week. A steady consumptive demand is es.
perienced for Indian Corn, which moves off in moderate Val,"
tities, at late prices, for the supply of the districts in the
tenor. Wheat is firm, with an upward tendency, hold er.
influenced by the improved tone of the English advices, beii!g
disposed to look for higher rates, and being strengthened
this feeling by the fact that the stocks of the article of Teal
prime quality are very scarce here just now. As annatl;al;
consequence, it follows that we have more firmness in the fitLe
trade, and we find that an advance of 6d per cwt upon re
flours is generally sought for, while some of our millers ref
ers
to sell except at the improvement. As, however, the ba sre.
have not been obtaining prices for their bread sufficientlY wit
munerative to admit of their paying higher rates for the
material, a struggle is going on between the purchaser a.•
seller, and the result is a not very active business in the article.
We have but few foreign arrivals. Of home grain we ma,
say none comes in. Holders of wheat are firm, and demised.
higher rates, yet but little has changed hands. Of oats the
same may be said, as though there have been some inquiries
for the article, the pretens,ons of holder.; have checked hug'
ness. On flour an advance of 6(1 per cwt is asked. The trade,
is quiet, with a moderate business doing to supply present
wants. Coarse flours continue in request. With a fair trade
passing in Indian Corn, prices continue unaltered, 8/ 2s 6d 41.

DEFEAT OF A NEST OF GAMBLERS.—A short tide
since a young scion of the aristocracy, scarcely of age',
the nephew of au officer holding a high appointment
her Majesty's household, was entrapped into play at °"4
of the West-end clubs by a set of well-dressed sharper:
who, by some means or other, had "got access to the
place. The result was that he was plundered of all ",1
then possessed, and bills of exchange, to the amount
several hundreds, were extorted from him. These rie,,'B
considered " as good as the Bank," from the fear of tv
expc sure of the:young gentleman's relatives, partictOrlf
g
his uncle above alluded to. Owing to a dispute tol-,13h0
the members of the gang, as to the division 0',„," y
plunder, one of them disclosed to the loser the conspin;n
by which he had been defrauded. The young gentletnho
was on the eve of taking up some of the bills when foci
disclosure was made to him. lie then had the Vol
,sense, like the profligate son, to acknowledge his sins and
:transgressions to his friends, who have forgiven bin,'
