MURDER AT LEITH,

Yesterday morning, Matthew M`Goohan, an Irish
labourer, residing in Redford's-close, Leith, was stabbed
near his own door by an Italian sailor named Antonio
Cheribo. M`Goohan was conveyed to the hospital, where
he almost immediately expired. The wound was inflicted
with a marlinspike. Cheribo, who is in custody, bears
marks of violence as though recently inflicted. The
murder is supposed to have been the result of a fight.

At a special meeting of the Cambridge Town Council,
held yesterday for the purpose of accepting a tender
for the erection of a new Corn Exchange on a site which
has been already paid for and cleared, the proceedings
were brought to a summary conclusion, in consequence of
a notice of application for injunction being served on the
Town Clerk, from the Court of Chancery, to restrain the
Corporation from proceeding on the ground of their
having no legal power to do so. It was resolved to
oppose the application, and retain Sir Roundell Palmer
on behalf of the Town Council.

The Prince and Princess of Wales visited the
Horse Show at the Agricultural Hall yesterday evening.
There was an immense crowd.

It is said that the Duke of Richmond has called a
meeting of the Conservative peers for next Tuesday to
consider their course on the Irish Land Bill in the Lords.
The charity children held their usual annual
meeting at St. Paul's yesterday. The Lord Mayor and
Sheriffs attended, and the Bishop of Worcester preached
the sermon. There were 5,000 children present.

The Sheerness people evince but little gratitude
for the solicitude of the Government in, protecting
them from an attack by Fenians, of whose existence they
appear somewhat sceptical. The number of troops
at present in garrison at Sheerness is under three hun-
dred, and the effect of the order to double the sentries
has been to keep the men out of bed four nights in the
week.
The great dome of St. Paul's Cathedral was yes-
terday the centre of attraction for a number of proces-
sions from the various London schools, headed by the
rectors, vicars, the curates, the churchwardens, and the
officials. Prominent amongst the officials were the
beadles, with their quaint apparel. The Lord Mayor and
sheriffs attended the cathedral in state, accompanied by
the civic dignitaries. The congregation included about
15,000 persons, of whom 5,000 were children.
HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—None except the
uncommonly hardy can hope to escape continued unsettled
weather without some bodily discomfort or actual disease.
Holloway's remedies have won a name and fame previ-
oualy unknown in medical science, for their ability in suc-
cessfully contesting with colds, coughs, quinseys, rheu-
matism, and neuralgia. This formidable list of dangerous
and painful affections is completely under the control of
these inestimable specifics, which used according to their
accompanying directions will soon mitigate the tortures,
suppress inflammatory tendencies, and secure the soundest
health. The very moderate price charged for these never-
failing remedies place them within the reach of the most
humble sufferers, whose ill-health, by producing poverty,
exaggerate his personal pangs,

MARKETS.--Tms DAY.
MARK-LANE.

The grain trade at Mark Lane to-day continued firm,
and a tendency to still higher rates was apparent. The
show of English wheat was limited. For both red and
white produce the demand was steady, and extreme prices
were obtained. There was a moderate supply of foreign
wheat, for which a healthy inquiry was observable, and
the quotations were well maintained. The show of barley
was moderate. The trade was firm at full quotations.
Malt was quiet on former terms. Oats were in short
supply and steady request, at fully late prices. Beans
were firm and quite as dear. Peas were steady in value
and inquiry. Flour was firm at late rates.
