The Market for Public Securities presents a very f
heavy appearance, owing to some large sales of :t
New Three per Cents. An unfavourable effect is
st
also produced by the expected negotiation of
new loans. Consols, consequently, are rather
depressed, being 931 ex dividend. The New si

Best Booms.—For our own part, we think
there is somethingperfecty terrifying in being
askedaars
into a fine, stately drawing-room, the polishe
shining with unnatural brightness the fire-irons
arranged in stiff angles, evidently never WT.'
priated to their purpose—the tables viost geometrically
studded with glossy, unread volumes of rubbish, and the
besilked and betasselled sofas looking as if they were in-
tended for anything but sitting on. We give an involun-
tary shudder as we are left to gaze upon costly chimney-
ornaments and japanned screens, whi' e the lady of the house
is, most probably, making a rush to execute the metamor-
phose of dress and cap. We would much rather have been
introduced to the common parlour, where we should have
beheld some signs of social vitality, and thawed ourselves
into good-humoured cheerfulness ; but then and there we
might have seen a basket of stockings and socks undergoing
the process of repair ; the youngsters might have been lug-
ging.the chairs about, and left a tailless horse and wheelless
cart in the foreground. We might have formed suspicions
that bloaters had been among the matin condiments, and
oh I most dire of all I we might have found the mistress in
a somewhat rumpled morning wrapper and a " fright of a
cap ;" still we should greatly prefer the risks of breaking
our neck over Noah's ark, sitting down on a heap of un-
darned hose, and encountering a fifth-rate head-gear, to the
petrifying,
topsirit-damng fifteen minutes we are often
sentenced in a "bet room." The children, if there
happened to be such humanising things in the esta-
blishment, look upon the walls with a sort of reli-
gious awe. They never " play" in the " best room ;"
they never dream of clutching at the splendid bell-rope ;
they never have the most remote idea of making Lord
Ma or" s coaches of the embroidered footstools ; they never
ma of playing " 80-peep" behind the richly-fringed
damask drapery ; they never dare to speculate as to whether,
with a stout pin, they could pick out the eyes of the queer
little man on the Indian card-box ; mirth and mischief are
thoroughly mesmerised, and the little darlings sit or stand
as though their life-tide had been suddenly manufactured
into the " best starch."—Elica Cook's " Jottings from stay
Journal."
