States and the Lumber Trade.

There is scarcely any one article of importation
to the British Isles in which the people should feel
a more lively interest as regards its future supply
than that of lumber. For many years there has
been a tariff upon its importation which happily now
does not exist, and no doubt there will, in future,
be a larger business done in lumber than hereto-
fore, and merchants engaged in this branch of enter-
prise will derive no little advantage by this
instalment of free trade. At the same time we
desire to call attention to a comparatively new
source of supply—a supply that is almost inex-
haustible in its quantity, and not less convenient
to the English nrarket than are the forests of
British North America, which are becoming so in-
accessible as to add very materially to the cost of
shipments. We refer to the immense and almost
unbroken forests of pine, cypress, oak, and ash—to
say nothing of the other valuable. timbers, such as
beech, birch, cedar, and plum—to be found in
the north of Florida, the South of Georgia, the
central portion of Alabama and Mississippi, the
western portion of Louisiana, and the eastern por-
tion of Texas. All of the above-mentioned regions
are penetrated by navigable rivers, downalse,wso bht

of Sabine Pass, Texas, alone imported over
1,000,000 feet of lumber, principally pine and
Cypress, during the year 1860, and could readily
have supplied treble that amount if a suitable mar-
ket had presented itself. The above statements,

A WEDDING AT AN HOTEL—fashionable or other-
wise—is rather a dismal business. There is a fatal air of
insincerity over the banquet, which has a " baked-meats"
air. The waiters eye the "happy Pale hungrily and with
competition. Rather they never lose sight of the happy
man for a second, fearful lest he should be plotting to de-
fraud them of expected bueksheesh. The landlord hovers
about, looking at the guests suspiciously, for they have
given no orders, and is thinking of what salvage he can
secure out of the feast. He is dissatisfied with any settle-
ment, for how can money make.. to him for the conspi-
cuousness of the proceeding, the idlers in the street, and

The following resolutiont
adopted —" That in the opinion of this Council a Confer-
e_nce of all the Reform Associations throughout the United
filingdom should be held at an early date, to consider and
adopt a plan of united action for the purpose of obtaining
a more complete, comprehensive, and satisfactory Reform
Bill than the very moderate measure introduced by the
Government; and which, moderate as it was, has been
obstructed and defeated by the sham Liberals and the Tory
faction in the House of Commons; thus showing their
hostility to allreal reform, and absolving all true Reformers
from further compromise with regard to the complete en-
' franchisement of the people." It was also resolved, " That
the secretary be instructed at once to correspond with the
National Reform Union, Northern Reform Union, Glasgow
Reform Union, and other associations, for the purpose of
arranging the preliminaries for such conference. The
meeting then adjourned to this day (Wednesday), at eleven
o'clock.
