THE DR .11-T 'PICK FORD'S.—PRUieESSaq

AND

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Six,—Might I ask the favor of a few lines of space
to contradict a report which is going the round of
the press, and i 3 likely to do me very considerable
injury. It is to the effect that all my paraphernalia
in its transit from Manchester was destroyed in the fire
at Camden on Tuesday night. Most fortunately for
me the report is utterly untrue, and must have arisen
among those of my friends who seem anxious to
crown me as the Fire King. The luggage trucks arrived
a few hours after the fire broke out, otherwise that which
is now an arousing fiction would have been to me
sad reality. Every article of my new fittings, every uew
piece of apparatus, and every new trick which I have
prepared, will he duly proiticed at the Standard Theatre
on Monday next.—l am, Sir, vont obedient i,ervant.
JOHN HENRY ANDERSON,
Wizard of the North.

MARKET NEWS.—(This Day.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Keepsake ....
Bannockburn.

Ahor.fran average supply of English wheat hag come to
hand this week, coastwise, viz., 3,950 quarter. Fresh up,
to-day, however, the receipts o that grain by land carriage
were limited, and the show of samples was, consequeatly,
small. The attendance of millers was far from numerous,
and we had only a moderate inquiry for all kinds of wheat
of home produce. Prices, however, were well supported.
Only 2,410 quarters of foreign wheat have come to hand
this week ; but the supply here, to-day, was extensive.
Sales of all kinds progressed slowly, yet prices generally
were supported.
Floating cargoes of foreign grain were held at fall quo-
tations. _ _ .

Fine malting barley was scarce, and quite as dear as last
week. Inferior plrcels met a slow inquiry.
No change took place in the value of malt, for which,
the demand ruled heavy.
Oats, beans, and peas moved off steadily, at very full
pricef.a. In the value of flour, no change took place.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The supply of beasts in to-day's market was only mode-
rate. Most breeds moved off slowly, at Monday's decline
in the quotations. We were fairly supplied' with sheep, in
which a steady buiiness was doing, at full prices. There
was a moderate inquiry for lambs, the supply of which
wai not extensive, at fully previous rttos. As the supply
of c dyes was large the veal trade ruled heavy, at a decline
in value of 2.l,per Sibs. Pigs were dull; but mulch cows
were in improved request.
