BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, OCT. 29.--We have to
report rather an improved feeling in our sugar-market
this week, and although the sales have not been large,
still this arises more from the disinclination on the part
of importers to sell at present rates, than from any want
of confidence in this article by the dealers. Bum con-
tinues very dull.—Bristol Mercury.
WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, PRIDAT.—To-day
we have to report a good arrival of wheat, but there is
only a moderate show of good fresh samples, for which
there is a free sale at an improvement of 2s. per quarter.
Barley, from its scarcity, supports its late value. Oats
and shelling are sold on rather easier terms. Beans in
retail demand at late prices.

RAILWAY AcciDENT.—Yesterday afternoon, about
four o'clock, an accident occurred at the St. Leonard's
depot of the Dalkeith Railway, in consequence of two
carriages accidentally coming in contact, whereby a
person of the name of Thomas Valiance got his leg
broken. He was removed by the police to his own
house, Pleasance.—North Bri!ish Mail of Friday.
FAsT-DAY.---Yesterday, being the sacramental
fast-day, was observed in Edinburgh and vicinity with
the usual solemnity, the shops almost without exception
being closed ; yet the fineness of the day seemed to
tempt crowds to embark in all sorts of pleasure ex-
cursions, and early in the afternoon signs of drunken-
ness became apparent in Leith-walk, on which 20 or 30
omnibuses plied assiduously. The railways were in full
operation. The numbers who passed along the North
British line were 2,870; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 1,400;
Edinburgh and Granton we have not ascertained.—North
British Mail of Friday.
TUE LATE ACCIDENT ON TILE LANCASTER AND
CARLISLE RAILWAY.—The owner of the cattle lately
ki!led by the railway accident, near Mtinthorpe, has been
paid the full value of his stock thereby destroyed, by the
Lancaster and Carlisle Railway Company.—Carlisle
Journal.
