still the most difficult to dispose of. The arrivals have been
370 puns and hhds since this day week. For East India lower
rates by 2d to 3d per gallon have been submitted to, proof

total sales have been 280 puns ; further parcels have arrived,
and several others are near at hand ; for proof Mauritius
2s 7d has been taken. Holders of Brandy for the most
part display firmness, but the operations have been only

lower prices; we quote Cognac first brands of the vintage

TALLOW.—Prices continue to improve for Russian Tal-
low, and now rule 6d to 9d above those of this day wock ;
there has been an increased desire en the part of the
trade to purchase P. Y. C. on the spot, and from the
chandlers there has been a brisk demand ; the soap make rs
have been buyers to a fair extent, and prices have aj-
vanced to 48s to 48s 3d, at which rates holders are by to
means desirous to realize, nearly all the vessels from S t.
Petersburg having arrived. For delivery in spring months
a good many contracts have been entered into, at the im-
proved rates of 48s 3d to 483 6d. Of South Americara
several parcels have been disposed of at 43s 6d to 47s
for ord and good.quatity. Town Tallow has sold treeiy.
To-day the demand was good for P. Y. C. on the spot
and for delivery in spring months and the rates quoted
above were fully supported.

mon descriptions of Fish Oils. For Seal and Southern

come the above-named distinguished traveller and philan-
thropist to his native land (as a response to the manifesta-
tion of feeling which greeted his arrival in America). on
which occasion the honourable and talented gentleman will
give a detail of his labours in the temperance cause during
his three years' tour through the United States. The Pre-
sident of the Society will take the chair at six o'clock pre-
cisely ; doors open at five.
WALSALL.--We have just learned that there 13
a vacancy in the representation of Walsall, in consequent.
of the retirement of Mr. Finch ; and as it is said that the
friends of monopoly are in the field, with the intention of
trying to strengthen the landlords' interest in that strong-
hold of our manufacturing industry, the Council of die
League have determined to send a deputation to meet the
electors. Whatever may be the politics of the winning party,
we feel confident that his banner will be inscribed with the
motto "No bread-tax."--Anti- Corn-law Circular.
