METROPOLITAN CATTLE.
The supply of foreign beasts here to-day was limited ;of
foreign sheep tolerably good. In the quality of tho stock,
however, there was no improvement.
With English beasts the market was Tory scantily sup-
plied. From Scotland the receipts were very moderate—
viz., 64 Scots and crosses from Dundee, and 199 from
Aberdeen. The show from Ireland was limited. All breeds
of beasts sold briskly, at an advance is the quotations com-
pared with Monday last of from 6d to 8d per 81bs. The
best Scots and crosses sold at 5s 8d per 81bs.
The attendance of butchers from Liverpool, Birming-
ham, and Manchester was large.
The purchases of sheep, thiefly woolled, were extensive
for those markets ; hence, the mutton trade was active, at
very high rates. The best Downs and half-breds in the
wool sold at 7s to 7s 4d per Blbs. For clipped sheep the
demand was quiet, but firm, on rather higher terms.

Naval and Military Intelligence.

Col. Yorke, Royal Engineers, Inspector of Studies
at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, during
the past seven years, and Second Commandant a
considerable portion of that time, having obtained
his promotion as major-general, vacated his post on
Saturday last. He will be succeeded this morning
at the Academy by Lieut.-Colonel Field, R.A., late
Acting Governor of the General Hospital at Wool-
wich. Gen. Yorke, whose term of office has been
marked by various circumstances requiring the most
experienced judgment, has had the satisfaction of
meeting with the approval of the entire Council of
Education, the Commander-in-Chief having per-
sonally thanked him in his own name as President
of the Council and Governor of the Academy. He
now retires on full pay into private life.
Capt. Whinyates' battery, now A of the Bth Bri-
gade Royal Artillery, formerly K of the 4th Bri-

parade, and was carefully inspected by Major-Gen.
Warde, commandant, accompanied by Col. Anderson,
C. B. , commanding officer of the brigade ; Major Hay,
brigade-major; and Capt. Nangle, deputy-assistant
quartermaster-general. After the inspection, the
general addressed the battery in most complimen-
tary terms, informing them that they would carry
with them to their new station a character which he
was always glad to recognise publicly. Their con-
duct, he said, had been invariably good. The gene-
ral will inspect Lieut.-Col. Turner's battery of the
same brigade this morning at 10.45.
Capt. Dunlop, commodore of the second class, and
Superintendent of Woolwich dockyard, having suc-
ceeded to his flag appointment, was on Saturday

MARK-LANE.

The trade for wheat in the country markets held on
Saturday was firmer, and, in some instances, prices ad-
vanced ls. per qr. Barley ruled firm, at fully late rates.
For oats, beans, and peas, the trade was steady ; but the
flour trade ruled quiet.
On the Continent, the wheat trade is very quiet, at about
stationary prices. Spring corn is steady in value. At
New York, the business doing in wheat and flour for ex-
port is small.
The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
were but moderate. The imports consisted of 17,948 quar-
ters of wheat, 9,899 barley, 32,327 oats, 769 beans, 113
tares, 2,924 linseed, 10,022 rapeseed, 1,440 maize, and
2,198 sacks of flour.
Fresh up to our market to-day the arrivals of home-
grown wheat was moderate, but the condition of the pro-
duce was very middling. The few dry samples on the
stands were purchased somewhat readily, at fully late rates.
As regards damp qualities the trade was slow, but factors
were firm in their demands, and last Monday's currency
was supported.
The market was moderately supplied with foreign wheat
In most descriptions about an average business was trans-
acted, and prices ruled firm.
Floating cargoes of grain were in fair demand, at ful
currencies.

Barley was in somewhat increased supply, chiefly as re-
gards foreign qualities. The trade ruled heavy, at a de-
cline of ls. to 2s. per quarter. _

Malt was in short request ; nevertheless, prices ruled
firm.
The supply of oats on sale was tolerably large. For
most qualities there was a moderate demand, at last Mon-
day's currency.
Beans were in fair supply, and the trade was slow, at a
decline in prices of is. per quarter.
Peas moved off slowly, at late rates. The supply on
offer was only moderate.
The flour trade was quiet, at the prices of Monday last.

GOVERNMENT PROPERTY.

Mr. Alderman SALMONS moved for a return of the
appropriation of the whole, or any part, of the sums voted
in aid of local assessments for the relief of the poor on cer-
tain descriptions of Government property, specifying the
amount paid in each district up to the 31st day of March,
1866.—The return was ordered.
THE PROBATE COURT.

Mr. LOCKE asked the Secretary to the Treasury the
reason of the delay in giving effect to the suggestions
made by the Judge of the Court of Probate to the Lords of
her Majesty's Treasury, for the future regulation of the
salaries and emoluments of the clerks and officers in the
Principal Registry ?
Mr. CHILDERS said letters had been received by the
Treasury at the commencement of the year to the effect
stated by the hon. and learned gentleman. The officers of
the Court of Probate were appointed at fixed salaries for
fixed duties; but the mode of remunerating those officers
was now under the consideration of the Treasury, and he
hoped in a short time some final decision would be ar-
rived at.

ARMY SURGEONS.
Mr. O'BEIRNE asked the Secretary of State for War
whether the system hitherto followed in promoting assistant
surgeons to battalion surgeons iu the Foot Guards had
not been regimental ; whether there was any intention to
change that system ; and, if any change was to be made,
under what warrant ?
The Marquis of HARTINGTON said the system in the
Guards with respect to the promotion of the assistant-
surgeons was a regimental system, but a warrant had been
issued in 1860 which gave several advantages, and also
enacted that promotion should be for the future by seniority.
A question afterwards arcse whether it applied to the house-
hold cavalry. After some consideration, her Majesty, by the
advice of tho authorities at the War-office, had directed
that the promotion of assistant-surgeons to the rank of
surgeon in the household cavalry should be by seniority.

WOOL.

Owing to the large import of cotton and the fall of id.
to id. per lb. in prices, the wool trade has been somewhat
quieter, and buyers have shown less disposition to operate.
The market, however, must be considered firm, at fully
late rates. Last week's import was about 15,000 bales,
chiefly from Australia.

temper of the Radicals is moderating, or they are
becoming sensible of the public feeling against them.
Affairs in the South are going on safely and
quietly. General LEE, in his evidence before the
Reconstruction Committee, declared that there was
no sentiment of hostility to the Federal Government
in Virginia. The people, he said, were disappointed
and saddened, but had accepted their fate. It re-
' mains for the Congress to decide whether they shall
profit by this quietude to rebuild the prosperity of
the Union, or degrade and insult the Southern
people until they irritate them into a fresh revolu-
on.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE.

GEE 1T NORTH. OP SCOTLA:Sp.
The half-yearly general meeting of this
j p
company
was held on Thursday at Aberdeen— ir J. D. IL
Elphinstone, the chairman, presided.
The report, an abstract of which has appeared in
The Sun, was taken as read.
The CIIIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, expressed his regret that they were not able
to pay more than half per cent. on the B preference
shares, being the same amount as that paid in the
preceding half year. The high rates of interest
and other matters had been the cause of the very
small dividend referred to. There had been an in-
crease in the receipts for goods traffic of £1,893,
and a decrease of £l6 in the passenger traffic, leav-
ing the net increase of £1,877. The extreme rates
is
of interest had absorbed a very large portion of to
increase in the revenue. The reduction of fares
which the company had made last year in April had
operated against the company in respect to receipts,
but the number of passengers in consequence of the
reduction in fares had increased 10 per cent., the
total number carried having been 340,313 in the past
half-year, against 294,198 in the corresponding half
of the preceding year, showing an increase of 46,115.
(Hear.) The effect of the cattle plague had also
been injurious
to their traffic. They were promot-
ing a permissive Bill in Parliament for the purpose
of authorising an amalgamation of the branch
undertakings with their own. They hoped to come
to a mutual understanding with those companies so
as to facilitate the operation and reduce working
expenses. The most important feature of the Bill
was that it provided for the amalgamation of the
Strathspey and of the Keith and Dufftown Railways
with the main line, which would give them through
communication with the western portion of the ter-
ritory and with Perth by the Highland line. It
-would also accelerate the traffic from the Western
-Highlands by the junction line which they expected
would be opened by the month of May. The Scot-
tish North-Eastern Railway Company were op-
posed to the proposed amalgamation, which was
merely for the purpose of dealing with the internal
affairs of the company. The Scottish North-East-
ern Railway Company had a Bill in Parliament to
authorise the amalgamation of their undertaking
with that of the Caledonian, which, of course,
would be opposed by the Great North of Scotland
Company as being detrimental to their interests.
Mr. J. DUNCAN, deputy chairman, seconded the
motion for the adoption of the report, which was
agreed to, and the proceedings terminated.

MELLIS AND EYE.
The contract for the construction of this line has
been let to Mr. S. C. Ridley. The works have been
commenced, and are to be completed within seven
