THIS DAYS MARKETS.

CORN EXCHANGE.

THIRD EDITION.

SUN OFFICE, Seven o'clock.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were fairly sup-
plied with wheat in excellent condition. For most kinds there was
a steady inquiry, at full prices. Barley and oats realised extreme
rates, with a fair demand. All other articles were very firm in
pece.
The Contirental markets have exhibited very few changes of
late. The transae:,ions in grain for ship.vent have tot been to say
extensive. In the United States both wheat and flour have com-
manded very full prices.
The arrivnls of English produce up to our market last week were
only moderate. The imports from abroad were liberal, viz., 20,7 5
qrs of wheat, 15,05 i barley, 62,213 oats, 1,20 beaes, 1,215 peas, 5,200
linseed, 2,200 rapeseed, 10 mustardleed. 20 canary seed, 0,350 In-
dian corn, 120 sacks and 1,011 barrels of flour.
Fresh up, to-day, coastwise and by land-carriage, a moderate
supply of both old and new English wheat came to hand. The gene-
ral quality of the samples was good. For nearly all kinds the de-
mand ruled somewhat inactive, notwithstanding that most of the
millers hold very light stecks, even for the time of year, at prices
about equal to those current ou Monday last.
Good and fine foreign wheats were mostly disposed of, without
difficulty, at full quotations. In to s and damp qualities, the show
of wheat was large, very little was doing, on former terms.
The few samples of English barley in the market were readily
disposed of at full quotations.
Foreign barley was quite as dear as last week.
We had a fair inquiry for malt, and late rates were well sup-
ported. The show of samples was good.
The show of foreign oats was again very large ; nevertheless,
good sound corn changed hands freely, at full prices. Inferior oats,
from Russia, were less active.
Beans were in short supply and fair request, at full prices. The
supply of peas was limited, and sales were effected at full quota-
tions. The new samples of both beans and peas were in very poor
condition.

SPORTING NOTES.

RETROSPECT OF YORK AND EGIIA.M
ANTICIPATIONS.

The York committee will perhaps now set their wits to
work in revising their most unintelligible programme, and
in altering their equally incomprehensible conditions. All,
too, who participated in the tedious amount of sport run
through on the Thursday, will echo the cry that in order to
maintain the success of the meeting it must be extended
to four days. Admiral nous, in a letter to a
sporting contemporary, justly remarks, "some of
the York literary effusions require legal interpretation ;"
and the truth of this statement was strikingly exemplified in
the second North of England Biennial Stakes, wherein
Gildermire actually received weight from everything else,
because, although an extensive winner in 1857, the condi-
tions stipulated the allowance for " never having won in
1858," and notwithstanding that the York luminaries, when
they perceived their error, refused the allowance of weight
to Aldcroft at the scale, the stewards, upon being appealed
to, felt themselves compelled, according to the conditions, to
deduct the Sib. The loose wording of the penalties for the Ebor
also led to much discussion, and had not the Roman Candle
been scratched, the sporting press would have been endlessly
bored by countless questions and the time of the stewards
occuLied by numerous disputes respecting the penalties he
had incurred. Again, the handicap should not be published
earlier than at the most a month before running, whereas
the weights fer the Ebor appeared on the Ist July, and the
race was run on the 10th Aug. What has been the conse-
quence ? The Roman Candle wins the Liverpool Cup and
the Goodwood Stakes, and thereby entirely spoils the bet-
ting upon his York engagement. In the hope that the evil
may next year be remedied, I proceed briefly to consider
the issues of the sport. The first rubber was won by the
Melton Stable with the aid of Cheery Chap, and the open-
ing day's sport was further remarkable for the admirable dis-
play of jockeysbip by Sam Rogers upon the Argosy in the
Yorkshire Oaks. Waiting with extraordinary patience until
the centreof the stand enclosure he literally stole the race from
his opponents, and landed the popular alderman's colours vic-
torious, amid an ovation that Yorkshirernen only know how
to deliver. The American horse Babylon scored his first
win in the Chesterfield, and Rainbow failed to give Caven-
dish the weight in the Convivial. Fisherman beat Ignora-
mus, who was as " fat as a bull," in a canter, and Mr. Parr
must now see his error in not starting either Kelpie
or Odd Trick, to make 'tinning for the " old horse"
in the Stewards' Plate at Stockbridge. Thursday's
sport, as already remarked, was tedious in the
extreme, although productive of some interesting in-
cidents. The opening event—the Lottery Plate—was
notable for one of those glaring cases of " roping" which is
calculated to bring the turf into disrepute with the public.
The stewards at once suspended J. Snowden from again
riding at York, and it would have been as well had they
carried their prohibition to extreme limits. I cannot, sir,
understand, however, why the boy should be punished and
the trainer only " reprimanded ;" for on the delinquent's
own declaration he merely "rode to orders." Rainbow
having carried off the Rawcliffe Produce Stakes, the Ebor
Handicap stood next on the card, and 13 out of the 18
coloured went to the post. The result, as everybody knows,
was never in doubt, the favourite, who came away at the
mid-distance, winning in the commonest of canters, little
Challoner alone considerately making a show of a finish
upon Tunstall Maid, for the gratification of the "Tykes,"
whose ovation at the success of the "spots" showed
that Lord Zetland has lost none of his popularity. The two-
year-old race which followed was won by Indifference, the
only animal in the race who seemed capable of moving in
the dirt, and Lord Chesterfield's good-looking son of Orlando
carried off the Prince of Wales's Stakes. Sir C. Monck,
with the aid of Gamester, won both the next two events,
and Mr. Merry's Terrona filly having placed the
Sapling to her owner's credit, I left Knaves-
mire amid a most drenching fall of rain. Friday's
racing was remarkable for the dead heat between
Rainbow and Cavendish in the Gimcrack ; notable
also for a second display of Sam Rogers's skill ; but the de
ciding heat told the tale of Cavendish's want of condition,
which, with the extra weight, compelled him to succumb to
his grey opponent. Gildermire repeated her performance(!)
in the Dee Stakes, by allowing Tunstall Maid to carry
off the Great Yorkshire, and Lord of the Manor
won the valuable olt Sapling Stakes. The
future event bettiog calls for some notice. Toxophilite
received fresh support, and on Wednesday morning an offer
of 3,000 to 1,000 against him was eagerly snapped at. For
the Derby, Rainbow and Cavendish were brought to the
front list of quotations ; and Gamester, Volcano, Lord of
the Manor, and Malachite were also quietly nibbled at.
Egham commences to-morrow, and Mr. Edward Hibburd,
with his usual tact, has compiled an excellent programme.
Five races are set for each day. The Surrey and Middlesex
niche chief event, and should Relapse nst be again stopped,
I see nothing to beat her, although Courier's pretensions are
wor h consideration. King-at-Arms, with his slb allowance,
ought surely to win the King John Stakes, and the other
two-year-old race—the Barons' Stakes—locks well for Miss
Flatrnan o^ Press Forward. In the Runymede Stakes the
handicapper has tkalt lightly with Brit swick and South
Western, one of which will furnish tue wince; . Tut ci Lc:
races have yet to fill. I defer notice of Stockton, which
occupies Thursday and Friday, until my next communica-
,on

A FRESH MAN.

DEATH OF MR. J. P. HARLEY.

Almost the last of that refulgent phalanx of the drama,
wbo were trained up under the auspices of Kemble, at
Covent-garden, or on the opposite stage of Old Drury, and
were known as the Shakspeare School—almost the last of
this academy—expired yesterday at half-past four.
The public will learn with deep regret that the veteran
actor and popular favourite, Mr. Harley, was suddenly struck
with paralysis, while performing his character if Launcelst
Gobbo, in "The Merchant of Venice," at the Princess's, in
Friday evening, with all the vigour and briskness for which
he was noted, and which is so rarely met at the advanced age
to which he had attained. On leasing Oe s' age, at the con-
clusion of his scene in the second act, he was observed to
stagger, and, being about to fall, was supported by Mr. G.
Ellis, the stage-director. Medical aid was immediately pro-
cured, and he was conveyed with all care to his residence in
Gower-street.
He was fur a brief time sensible, si much so, indeed, as,
on being asked the name of his medical adviser, to reply,
" I never Lad a doctor in my life," but soon after being put
to bed he lost all power of consciousness, save an occasional
recognition of Mr. Ellis or his sister, whom he addressed by
a fond, familiar voice, and who, it is unnecessary to say,
though painfully affected, was unremitting in her attention
to the very moment of his death, which occurred yesterday
afternoon at half-past four o'clock.
Few men have enjeyod a longer life of unintrrrup'ed
Ilealth and spirits than John Pritt llarley. Born in Lon-
don in the month of February, 1700, he adopted the stage
as a profession at an early age, and after the usual appren-
ticeship to the stage through various country theatres, be
made his metropolitan debut at the English Opira House
(now the Lyceum), on the 15th of July, 1815, in the cha-
racter of 111arcelli, in the " Devil's Bridge," and Peter
Fidget in " The Boarding House." On the 16th September
following lie appeared for the first time on the boards of
Drury-lane Theatre, in the character of Lissardo in "The
Wonder." Since then be has ranked and maintained a high
position in the first theatres of the metropolis, as a comedian
of infinite fun and drollery. The last original character in
which lie appeared was Sir Peter Pounce, in Mr. Stirling
Coyne and Coape's farce of " Samuel in Search of Himself,"
at the Princess's Theatre. Mr. Harley was chairman of the
Drury-lane Theatrical Fund. He was never married.

NOVEL ROWING MATCII.—A grand sporting rowing
match came off on the 18th instant, at half-past five o'clock
p.m., on the Clyde, opposite Mr. Banks M'Neil's boat-
building establishment, Glasgow, betwixt two blind men in
one boat and two seeing sturdy young men in the other. The
length, from the starting-post to Rutherglen-bridge and back
was accomplished by the blind men, who came in before their
opponents about 200 yards, in 7 minutes 40 seconds. This
grand and long-expected match created much excitement
amongst the Green visitors and the spectators interested in
the match. Messrs. Banks M'Neil and Campbell afforded
the blind competitors every accommodation possible, beside s
giving every support and eclat to the rowing match, in
order to please the numerous spectatcrs assembled.
ENIIGItATION.—III the 43 years, from 1815 to 1857
inclusive, there emigrated from the United Kingdom
4,683,194. Of these 2,830,687 went to the United States,
1,170,342 to British North America, 613,615 to Australia
an 1 New Zealand, and 68,550 to other places. Of the whole
emigration more thou one-half, viz.,1,4-14,802, emirated
in the eight years from 1847 to 1854 inclusive. In 1855 and
1856 the emigration fell to 176,807 and 176,554 respectively,
principally in consequence of the demand for the army and
navy and the departments connected with themduring the
Russian war, and iu 1857 the numbers rose to 212,875.

of working the Atlantic telegraph ?vas thought of the phe-
nomena exhibited by a small portion of the old submarine
wire removed from one of the British Channel lines,
which was exhibited at the Society of Arts, we
pointed out the curious fact 11tat the copper wire
was subdivided or cut, as it were, into small
morsels in the midst. of the gutta percha, each morsel being
entirely separate from the others, and thickened at both
ends, as if some condensing.
or hammering preesss had been
effected on each separate piece. This we attributed to the
perpetual and uncounteracted operation of the positive elec-
tricity upon the wire, our purpose being to induce consi-
deration as to bow such disintegration should he obviated.
The alternate transmittal of the negative by turns with the
positive was an ob reu.ly probable way of counteracting or
preventing such
disintegration ; and we are persuaded that
it will prevent it in the case of the Atlantic telegraph, and
that other advantages will be found to flow from
this mode
of working the line. Yet we are not aware whether any
such advantage as that indicated has been thought of in this
case ; bat it looks as if such were one of
the purposes of the
resolution come to.—The Budder.
