CEIURCH-11,1.1'31 CONTEST.- Oa Friday a vestry was held
at Alton, to ask for a church•rate of 4d. in the. pound.
The demand was resisted ; the votes being taken accord-
ing to Sturges Bourne's Act, the numbers were—For
the rate, 30 ; against it, 25. A poll was demanded,
which terminated at four o'clock on Saturday, when the
numbers were—For the rate, 138 ; against,
.77 ; majo-
rity for the rate, 61. A protest, in writing, against the
estimate, on the ground of illegality, was handed to the

so on the score of illegality.

LIVERPOOL, MAT 25.
There was a limited attendance to-day, and only a very
mod-rate business for the passing consumption resulted.
Common American wheat was offered at a reduction of ld
to 2d per bushel, but in the higher qualities no concession
was made. Flour stood ground better than wheat, and
was merely called easier. Indian corn had a fair trade at
Friday's prices. Nu other change in last week's quota-
tions for other articles.

LEEDS, MAT 25.
The arrival of wheat is large, millers try to buy on lower
terms, but any decline of moment is resisted—the trade
is, therefore, slow, and no advance on Friday's rates cap
be established. Barley unaltered. Oats and beans quite
as dear. Other articles as before.
Averages for the week : •
Wheaf., 43s 5d Oats, 258 'lid Peas, —s Od.
Barley, 31s OP I Beans, 43s 343 I Rye, —s Od.
