GLASGOW—WEDNEsDAY.

The weather has continued good. The foreign arrivals
consisted of only 1,820 qrs. of barley, 268 qrs. of beans,
707 sacks of flour; but the supplies by railway were liberal
of most articles. The business has been less active, with-
out materially affecting the value of wheat and flour. At
this day's market there was the usual attendance. Wheat
and flour, although quiet, were held at previous rates.

POPULAR PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITS.—A popular
singer or actor or a successful prize-fighter Will
sometimes have a run entering into tens of thousands of
copies; but the demand will suddenly collapse, and their
names will be heard no more. Public men, whose names
are distinguished in connection with the pulpit, with lite-
rature, science, or art, or in the legislature, are in constant
demand, notwithstanding that the especial rage of thin
collection of portraits has within the last 12 months con-
siderably subsided. Royal portraiture is always popular,
and perhaps nothing can more strikingly illustrate the
loyalty of Englishmen than the constant demand for por-
traits of members of the reigning family. Just about the
period of the marriage of the Prince of Wales, a photo-
- in Brussels had the good fortune to obtain sittings
from the Queen and several members of the royal family,
including the Prince of Wales and the Princess Alexandre,
and the sale of those portraits exceeded two millions of
copies. One photographer alone in this country 1339'
during the last few years, issued upwards of half a million
y early of members of the royal family. After the royal
.
family, the popular statesmen are the greatest favouritee•
Lord Palmerston during his life and for some little time
after his death being in greatest demand. If the sale °f
men's portraits afford any indication of the popularity
of their principles, it is tolerably manifest that Libe"
ralism obtains very strongly in this country, the circa"
lation of the portraits being in the ratio of ten of Glad.-
stone to one of Derby, who is, however, judged by 018
standard, the most popular of the Conservatives. On the.
other hand, the portraits of Louis Napoleon and Garibaldi
have about an equal popularity, the rage for the portraits
of the latter being more spasmodic, and of the former In°r
steady. After statesmen, popular literary men and clergy
men are most iu demand; and after these men of science
and artists ; and, lastly, popular actors and singer °.
Bishops seem to circulate in virtue of their rank, tb.
Archbishop of Canterbury having the most extended Or
culation, whilst clergymen and ministers are prized Ora_
in virtue of their popularity. Mr. Spurgeon was for
time in very large circulation; Mr. Binney less eaten'
sively, but more constantly.—British, Quarterly Bellew'
