BOROUGH HOP.
With the exception of line yearling hops being in fair request, at
full prices, there is scamely any business doing in our market, and
the quotations are almost nominal. The duty is called £250,000,
and the plantation accounts are very favourable. Picking will
shortly become general.

BOROI7GII AND SPITALFIELDS.
Since Monday last the supplies of potatoes on sale here have
considerably increased. Although a full average business has been
transacted, prices have had a downward tendency. Regents are
selling at from 655. to 905.; Shaws, 555. to 705., and middlings, 355.
to 503. per ton. The accounts respecting the crop continne very
favourable. Last week's imports were only 40 bass from llambro'.

WOOL MARKET.
The public sales of Colonial wool have, at length, been brought
to a close. The quantity of wool offered was 77,536 bales Colonial,
and 6,030 East India and other low wools. Prices advanced Id. to
2d. per lb., and about 8,600 bales were taken for the Continent. By
private contract very little is doing on former terms. Last week's
imporZs were 1,300 bales from Algoa Bay, 564 from Port Philip, and
57 from biogador.

ROYAL GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION,

After the fall of the curtain, at the conclusion of the enter-
tainment on Friday night, Mr. and Mrs. German Reed
again appeared before the audience, in obedience to a most
enthusiastic call. The curtain descended a second time,
and the delighted audience began to leave, when Mr. Reed
ran abruptly on to the platform, and, in a comic tone, ad-
dressed the audience in the following quaint speech :
" Don't run away, ladies and gentlemen, I have to make a
speech ; now I detest long speeches as much as anybody can,
and am somewhat astonished at my audacity in thus detain-
ing you, for you must be tired of hearing and seeing me.
Why, would you believe it, I can scarcely credit it myself,
that for upwards of one thousand and forty nights I've been
trying to compose an opera for your amusement, and as
often failed, because you laughed so immoderately when Mrs.
Reed persecuted and interrupted me. By the way, I should
have brought my wife before you now, but when once a lady
Liegins to talk there's no stopping her ; now I don't mean to
detain you a moment, but every public office has its auditors
of accounts, and I want you to pass ours. There is a heavy
debtor and creditor account between us. Do let me just
thank you, heartily and unaffectedly thank you, in the
name of my wife and myself, for the capital you have sunk
for our advantage. We've been drawing on you now for
four years, and during the whole of that time you've never
once dishonoured our bills or notes, musical and otherwise.
We have very large bill transactions in this establishment;
our six months' issue (in the London season) is considerably
in excess of a million (sheets of paper! !); and such is the
confidence which you (our liberal patrons), have in those
bills (yellow and blue), that I cannot allow this, our last
night, to pass over without saying Ladies and —"
Here Mrs. Reed suddenly made her appearance, con-
stantly interrupting Mr. Reed in his address ; persisting in
having the lust word of every sentence: They then stated
that their town house would be closed after to-morrow
(Saturday morning being their last appearance in London),
and gave a general invitation to their friends to pop in on
them any time in the country, for " Its wather the wight
thing to do to droop in to the Weeds." Then followed a
very comical adieu. Mrs. Reed, after the curtain had
dropped, still insisting on having the last word, put her
head through the curtains to have the last " Good bye !"
amidst the farewell cheers of a crowded audience.

WIIITEHAVEN AND FURNESS JUNCTION.

.• _ _
The twenty-sixth half-yearly meeting was held on Thurs-
day, at Whitehaven, when Lord Lonsdale, chairman of the
b lard of directors, presided.
The SECRETARY read the report of the directors, an ab-
stract of which has already appeared.
The noble CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re-
pr rt, said they were now enabled to pay a dividend some-
what better than that declared at the previous meeting, and
he thought they were looking up. Their receipts during the
last few weeks had 21,-o been better. Their receipts for the half
year , had been £1,700 more than in the Corresponding period
of last year, and although their expenditure had also been
larger, it had not increased quite in proportion, the increase
being £6OO or £7OO.
The report was then adopted, and resolutions were passed
declaring a preference dividend of 01 per cent, And a dm,

THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTE.—
It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article
of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity
is world-wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled
many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet
when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our
wonder willeease. A. few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating
that he had a horse which was a " perfect bag of bones." Ho tried
all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain.
He then bought some of Thorley's feet; and he says the effect was
wonderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, amid in the course of a few
weeks had gained no less than Ls stones. Again we find at the late
agricultural show at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which
carried off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thorley's
food for cattle. Such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced
to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own in-
trinsic merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from
the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All
parties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply to 77,
Newgate-street, London, for a pamphlet which is sent post-free.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The lamb season is now nearly over, consequently prices rule
somewhat uncertain.
We were fairly supplied with calves, which sold slowly, at 4d.
per 81bs. beneath Thursday's currency.
Pigs e supply of which was good—moved off steadily, at fully
last week's prices.
To-day's market was well supplied with foreign stock as to num-
ber, but its general quality was very inferior.
The supply of home-fed beasts was seasonably extensive, and
there was slight improvement in their weight and quality. Nearly
all breeds met a slow inquiry, and in some instances prices were 2d
per Sibs lower than on this day se'nnight. It must be understood
that the extreme value of the best Scots was 4s. 10d. per 81bs.
From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire, we
received 8,900 shorthorns; from other par; s of England, 500 of
various breeds ; from Scotland, 60 Scots ; and from Ireland, 200
oxen, &c.
The arrivals of English sheep were only moderate, for the time
of year, and their condition was by no means first-rate. The mut-
ton trade ruled firm, at fully last week's currency. The primest

full prices, there is scarcely any business doing in our market, and
the quotations are almost nominal. The duty is called £250,000,
and the plantation accounts are very favourable. Picking will
shortly become general.

BOROUGH AND SPITALFIELDS.
Since Monday last the supplies of potatoes on sale here have
considerably increased. Although a full average business has been
transacted, prices have had a downward tendency. Regents are
selling at from Css. to 905.; Shaws, 555. to 705., and middlings, 358.
to 50s. per ton. The accounts respecting the crop continue very
favourable. Last week's imports were only 40 bags from Ilambro'.

WOOL MARKET.
The public sales of Colonial wool have, at length, bees Coloni en broughal,
t

and 6,030 East India and other low wools. Prices advanced id. to
21. per lb., and about 8,600 bales were taken to the Continent. By
private contract very little is doing on forcer terms.

Every guano island that is found is immediately repre-
sented here, demanding, through two or three different
claimants, the protection of Government. Anything
which offirs a basis on which to form a stock company
is at once incorporated, and Congress besieged for
assistance. Now, while the administration is fully deter-
mined to protect all the interests of our citizens both at
home and abroad, which are honest and legitimate, it is also
quite too well aware of its functions to allow itself to be
made the tool of shrewd speculators in fancy stocks or
bogus-paper mail routes. It will waste no more time in
such matters. There is some talk of the erection of a
new military department on the Pacific, to be composed
of the territories of Oregon and Washington, leaving
the State of California in a department by itself.
We have plenty of officers for the purpose, and it is
thought such a distribution of them will render their
services much more efficient. We have now in the Walla-
Walla country about one thousand men, including garrisons,
against whom there are about three thousan e warriors.
In agent has been despatched from Walla-Walla northward
to Colville, to treat with the hostile tribes and friendly ones,
and report to the superintendent the true state of affairs.
By the time Gen. Harney arrives there full information of
the disposition of all the tribes may be expected to have
been obtained. A. vigorous campaign will then be com-
menced and carried on against the hostile tribes till they
yield or are driven from the country."

Another Washington despatch of the 17th says:--
" The Indian Bureau has received a communication from
Brigham Young, in which he says he will give way to Dr.
Forney, and close his office as Superintendent of Indian
Affairs for Utah. He asks for an allowance of 51,300, to
reimburse him for food and presents to the Indians, in order
to conciliate and keep them in check until the peaceful re-
sults following the advance of the troops could be explained
to them. It is suspected by the Commissioner of Indian
Affairs that Brigham conciliated the Indians for his own
purposes, but finding he could not use them, wants the
Government to pay the expenses."

The retiring directors and auditors were re-elected ; and

ON TRUE and FALSE SPERMATORRIREA ;
with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors
in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De-
bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Ilypochrondriasis.
Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD.
" Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent
practical contributions to German medical literature. This
is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself
to the
last non-medical reader. We trust that this may not be the ,if he shall detect any other equally flagrant evil which it
may be in his power to correct."—London Medical Gazette.
" The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers
from this distressing malady by translating this little book,
and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified
adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they
know nothing, with no other object that to fill their own
purses. The difference between true Spermatorrheea and the
various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de-
scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of
the malady."—Medical Circular.
" We have delayed so long upon the contents of the preli-
minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for
any
thermnotce of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ;
but oderate price at which the brochure' is sold, places
it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."—

The following proclamation from M. Gery, the
new Prefect of Algiers, has been posted up on the
walls of that city :
" Inhabitants of Algiers,—Algeria has ceased to
be a colony. Under the generous impulse of his
Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon, a new organi-
sation has assimilated the departments in Algeria
to the mother country ; has imparted, by confer-
ring on them independence, greater energy to the
local authority ; has preserved as safeguard an
army commanded by one of the most illustrious
generals of the empire ; has left full liberty to in-
dividual initiative, and opened the way to many
important ameliorations. Called to the Prefecture
of Algiers by the will of the Emperor, I come
among you, without prejudice, to labour with all
my power for the triumph of those true principles
which ought to ensure the future welfare of Al-
geria. I ask the assistance of all well-disposed
persons. I appeal to all generous sentiments, and
I hope that soon, by the presence and the exer-
tions of the Prince charged to complete the work
of our glorious army, there will be realised these
words of the Emperor at Bordeaux We have
opposite Marseilles a vast kingdom to assimilate to
France.' "

ing Food is equally adapted to improve the stamina of ill-
conditioned Horses, Cows, Bullocks, Calves, Sheep, and
Pigs. It causes no extra expense, as it contains far more
and better nourishment than its cost of ltd. per feed sup-
plies in corn and hay ; hence ensures an actual saving in
the keep. But its principal advantages are a great improve-
ment in the digestive functions, the stamina and general
condition of horses enabling them to perform far more
labour without getting distressed. It imparts new vigour
to sick, debilitated, or old apparently worn-out horses, and
it puts rapidly the finest flesh on cattle generally, and im-
proves the milk in cows, as it enables them to extract the
entire nourishment out of everything they feed on. Raney

ANOTHER ACCOUNT OF THE STORM.

Capt. Russell, of the ship Cultivator, gives the
following account of the storm which wrecked the
Clara :—On the evening of the 25th the wind was
blowing stiff from the north north-cast. At two
a.m. of the 26th it was blowing a gale, and we took
in sail ana kept the ship under reefed topsails and
reefed foresails. Before night our foresail was
blown away, and the ship was then hard to steer.
At night the gale increased to a perfect hurricane
from the north and from the north-westward, but
we still managed to keep her before it. She was
now twenty-nine hours before the gale, and we
endeavoured to set a trysail on the mizen to keep
her steady, but it would not stand. We then
boarded the mizen rigging with planks to supply
the place of canvas. The starboard quarterboat
was now stove in by the waves, and the second
mate was severely injured by one of the pieces
striking him on the head. The cabin and galle!r
doors were also stove in, the rails of the poop were
washed away and the boat on the after house stove
to pieces. The maintopsail halliards were snapped
in two by the force of a wave which washed over
the ship and struck the block. I expected all the
masts to go over at any moment for twenty-nine
hours. On the 28th the gale declined and backed
towards the northward and north-westward, and
we got two reefed topsails set. Altogether, it was
the most terrific storm I have ever experienced.
