FALKIRK SECOND TRYST.

MONDAY.—This great market commenced on Mon-
day last, the 13th inst.
The w?ather underwent a most agreeable change on
Saturday, and has continued, so that the cattle appeared
in the market under every possible advantage.
Monday being the day set apart fir the sale of sheep,
about from 26,000 to 23,000 were in the market, and
sales commenced briskly in the early part of the day;
and towards the evening it may be said all were sold. .
Amongst the lots brought for sale, we may state that
Mr. Sillers, from Sunderland, disposed of a very fine lot,
consisting of 1,000 white-faced Cheviot wedders, at
11. I Is. This was the top price of the market; his black-.
faced wedders sold from 11. to 11. Is. Mr. Scobi e
from Sunderland, sold a very fine lot of 600 white-faced
Cheviots, at 11. 10s. to a gentleman in Cumberland,
his Cheviot ewes from 16s. to 205.; and a superior lot
were disposed of at 275. Messrs. M'Farlane and Mitchell.
Argyleshire, sold 600 wedders at 225. ; 300 ewes at u s. ;
and 600 of the cross breed at 20s. per head. Mr. Roan,
Liverpool, had a superior lot of 1,100 whitefaced ewes,
from three to five years old, reared by Mr. Reed, Inver-
ness-shire. They were sold early in the day at about
13s. per head. This lot of ewes here allowed to be tip-
filiest in the market. Mr. Harris sold a fine lot of 156
blackfaced wedders at 235. 6d.- per head. About the
same number of the cross breed at 255. 3d. Mr. Murdiel
and Mr. Cameron, and Mr. Scott from
,Hawick, had also
several large and very fine lots disposed of at about the
above pricei.
A considerable number of Highland ponies were also
exposed in the market, a part of which were sold.
There seemed a demand for good draught horses. . A
good horse, say about six years old, brought about 2SI.
to 30/. _ _

On this day a fine hare broke cover, and made a
fine run through the Tryst ground, followed by a pack
of Highland collies. Puss took the lead for about a
mile, affording fine sport, and attracting attention to all
quarters of the market, until a young man belonging to
Denny carried her off in triumph, after having been se-
verely wounded.
TuEsDAY.—The morning was cold and cloudy, threat-
ening rain, but the day having kept up, no interruption
was offered to the market. _ _

Several lots of sheep, in all about 1,000, chiefly of
black-faced welders, remained unsold on Monday night,
but obtained buyers during to-day at from 11. to 11 2s.
About nine score of rams were in the market on Mon-
day, but few sold. Prices from 21. down to 11.
Mr. Methven,•Glasgow, had a lot of forty-six short-
horned nowt, fed by Mr. Cuthbertson, East Lothian, the
pick of which, consisting of twenty, were sold to Mr.
Allan Gilmour, flesher, Glasgow, fur 271. Weight about
fifty- Dutch stones.
Mr. Methven sold a lot . of the Fifeshire breed to Mrs.
Watson, Glasgow, for 21/
Mr. John Thomson, Whitefield-farm, Cupar-Angus,

field, to Mr. Roan, tlesher, Paisley, for 211. This was a
fine lot, averaging about forty-four Dutch stones.

breed, Argyleshire ; fifty stots were sold to Mr. ITTurk,
England, for 61. 6s. ; twenty queys at Si. 103. ; and
twenty do. at 51.
As usual, there were a great number of horses—sales
dull ; but the prices for good draught horses kept up.
A number of Highland ponies were readily bought at
from 31. to 61.

ANTI-CORN-LAW TEA PARTY.—The COM-
mittee of the Carlisle Anti-Corn-law Association gave a
soiree on Tuesday evening last, to meet the ministers of
this city and neighbourhood who attended the Manches-
ter Conference, and hear their report. Sir Wilfrid
Lawson, Bart., of Brayton Hall; was called to the Chair.
He regretted that some one more able to discharge the
duties of Chairman had not been selected, though no
one felt more strongly than he did the injustice of the
present Corn-laws. He said that the landed and the
-agricultural interest ought to be influenced in every
step they took, by the consideration that their interests
were identical. If one prospered the other must pros-
per, and they ought to go hand in hand. The. wretch-
Aciess of the country was so well known that he need
:lot dwell much upon it. The miseries of the poor w‘,,re
.laity increasing ; and if the present system of Corn-laws
.were continued, and our manufactures ceased to
orosper, and our operatives were thrown a burden upon
.he land, how deplorable must be the result I He be-
.ieved a repeal of the Corn-laws would benefit all par-
ies. But even supposing that the landed interest did
offer a little, he thought they were called upon to make
some sacrifices for the good of the thousands who were
suffering in so lamentable a manner. He was of opinion
that the Corn-laws were unjust ; it was unfair to impose
s tax upon the food of the poor—especially when that
:tx did not find its way into the Exchequer, but into the
ockets of a particular class—under the namb of protec-
ion. Believing the Corn-laws to be impolitic and un-
net, he was ready at all times to give his humble sup-
,ort in effecting their repeal. It was scarcely necessary
~hat he should remind the meeting to discuss the ques-
tion without reference to party, or to what was called
party-spirit. He would conclude by expressing. a hope
that a spirit of candour and Christian minty would per-
vade their proceedings. The ministers having made
their report, which was most favourably received, the
meeting separated.—Carlisle Journal.
SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—Between three and four
o'clock on Monday afternoon the following frightful and seri-
ous accident occurred on westminster7bridge :—Mrs. Sarah
Fool, a respectable msrru'd woman residing at No. 28, Tot-
tenham-street, was walking on the footway pavement with her
two children before her, a girl aged eight years and a boy aged
three, when, owing to the throng of persons pa•sing by, the
children were pushed into the road, and fell against the wheels
of a heavily-loaded flour waggon that was going along. The
shrieks of the mother caused the horses to start forward, and
it was at first supposed that they bath had been ten over, as
when raised up they were found to be bleeding and insensible
they were conveyed as quickly as passible to Westmins,e;
Hospital, where it was aseertained that the eldest had one of
her arms broken above the elbow, and that the wheel had so
violently grazed against it that the flesh was torn away from
the bone to a considerable extent ; she also received several
other severe contusions ; the youngest child was also lacerated
in different parts of the body and much bruised. Hops are
entertained of their surviving.
