FRUIT.—For Currants there continues a good demand.
Valentias continue to be taken off steadily.
Oms.—Prices have further given way for Linseed Oil, in
consequence of some parcels from the country having been
pressed for sale.—For forward delivery.there are few sellers
at 24s 9d to 255, but few buyers at present to be met with.
Rape Seed Oil has been sparingly dealt in, although pale is
obtainable at 33s 6d to 345, and brown 32s 6d to 33s per cwt.
Of Foreign brown, large parcels have been disposed of at
32s to 32s 6d. For Olive Oil the market is dull. Cocoa Nut
is less wanted, and former rates are not obtainable. Palm
has been in excellent request, and prices are firm. Cod Oil
has been only in limited request, and holders show more de-
sire to realise. Southern has been in excellent demand pri-
vately, chiefly for home consumption in consequence of the
low rates.

respectable Holloway 's
PROVE3IENT OF THE LABOURIxG,
CLA3BES. n F *lay, the second annual meeting of this society was
held at the Queen's Concert Booms, Ilanover-square, Lord Ashley
presiding. A letter was read from his iZoyal Highness Entice Albert,
who inel sed 100/. as his contribution towards the funds. The Chair-
man explained that the society was established for preparing models,
&c., by which poor men would benefit, and from which those who
invested their capital would reap no small advan age. The report,
which was read by the Secretary, stated that the Bishop of London
hal presented 1001., Mr. Samuel Gurney L 01., the Bishop of Nor-
wich 201., and that many other ablutions had been received. The
Society had expended its funds in the erection of Its dwellings In the
Bagnigge Wells-road. Sir Digby Mackworth, in moving the adop-
tion of the report, referred at some length to the allotment system,
Which he had tried on his own land. He had found it to work ex-
ceedingly well, with the exception of some apprehension on the part
of the farmers, who thought that their labourers might become too
independent. The Lord Bishop of Norwich. the Rev. Thomas Dale,
