1-xscx, Nov. 30.—The first of our monthly markets,
for the season, was held here on Monday last. The
supply of cattle brought forward, came fully up to ex-
pectation. Although the quality in general could not
be compared to that of the corn:spending period of last
season,lfor reasons obvious to those acquainted with such
matters, still, it gave ample evidence " of better things
to come." Not a small amount of business was trans-
acted by a numerous and respectable body of dealers;
some of the choicest lots reaching from 15/. to 201.—one
superior animal brought 231. There was a fair demand
for grain, prices from 14s to 16s, according to quality.
111oNamosu, DEC. I.—We had a dull market to-day,
but prices were not much lower, excepting wheat, which
was down 2s to 3s. Wheat, 621b5., 50s to 51s; barley,
531b5., 25s to 265; oats, 401b5., 17s to 183 6d; peas, 25s

DVERTISEMEN T —Bowel Complaints and Cho-
lera do not always arise from foulness without the sys-
tem; if the liver be in a sluggish state, or if the diges-
tive functions be improperly performed irritation of the
bowels is sure to ensue; and if the blood be not properly
decarbonized, in consequence of the lungs being ob-
structed by impurities, that vital fluid passes through
the system charged with a disease engendering principle.
The Vegetable Restorative Pills, prepared by John Kaye,
Esq., of Dalton-hall, near Eluddersfield, have become
celebrated throughout the world as the most effica-
cious medicine ever discovered for ridding the system of
all impurities, for opening obstructions, for removing
acrimonious and redundant bile (the chief cause of cho-
lera), and for causing the fluids to flow in a healthy and
natural order. At the same time, these Pills strengthen
the stomach, aid digestion, and renovate the whole sys-
tem. None are genuine unless Mr. Kaye's coat. of-arms,
and a fac simile of his signature, are printed on the di-
rections for use wrapped round each box. Price Is. lid.;
2s. 9d.; or 4s. 6d. each box. To be had of all Medicine
Venders.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]--A Wound in the Leg Cured
by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—Extract of a letter
from Mr. Edward Nichols, 34, Rose-street, Covent-
garden, to Professor Holloway, Sir,—For years I had
a bad leg, and about four years ago an abscess formed
which the treatment adopted by several medical men
failed to heal, and I despaired of a cure; lately my friends
recommended your medicines, and by their use alone I
soon found a great improvement, and in a few weeks my
leg was perfectly cured. I can now walk ten miles a
day with as great ease as when I was twenty years old,
and now lam fifty. Sold by all Druggists and at Pro-
fessor Holloway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London.
THE RUMS OF ALLINGRAM CASTLE:—One por-.
tion (that next the Medway) is converted into a farm-
house for the cultivation of 300 acres; the other was
also a farm-house for some 100 more, but lately this
latter has been dismantled, the roof torn off, the floors
taken away for cattle-sheds, the windows demolished,
and the materials converted into peasant cottages ! In
the refection hall there yet remains the mantle-piece
where once the faggot blazed, and on the entablature,
T. W., 1586, denotes the spot where old Sir Thomas
Wyatt warmed into verse. Within the court are pig-
geries and fowl-yards, cow-sheds, stacks ! I—and yet
remaining in its chiselled groove the old portcullis shuts
in all the hoard, an orchard fills the moat, ;and satcrile
gious hands have robbed the structure of its onward-
show. This is the property of Lord Romney.
TILE WINTER ASSIZE.—We are enabled to state
that an official communication has been made by Sir G.
Grey that a Winter Assize will be held only in three
northern counties, and consequently there will be no gaol
delivery either in this county or in Essex until the
Spring Assizes.—Uertford Mercury.

celled by the far. famed Hampshire breeds. This day
the fair was Well tilled with sheep and attended by
buyers. The quantity exceeded by sumo thousands the
average number; yet all were sold, or nearly so, at ad-
vanced prices of from is to 3s each, according to their
size, age, and quality. Some very splendid Southdown
wethers, said to be from the socks of Henry Hippisley,
Esq., sold at 50s each; some bred by Mr. Matthews, of
Chieveley, made 48s ditto; the sheep from the famed
flocks of E. Tull, Esq., of Peasemore, Mr. Humfrey, of

greatly decreased in this county among the flocks, nearly
all graziers taking home their flocks in wet weather as
at night, giving them corn, chaff, and other dry food, as
well ss green feed. Cattle sold better than for some
weeks past at other fairs, many finding purchasers at the
full prices asked. Horses for riding and farmers' work,
if warranted sound, made fair prices; all others were
not saleable, though offered at very low figures.
