MARKETS.--(This Day.)

CORN.

The trade continues very firm and healthy in its gene-
ral aspect. The continental accounts from the shipping
ports are very firm in the quotation, and there were very
few additions to the number of grain cargoes on passage,
which is now worked down to a level with that of last
yoar at this time.
From the country markets the report speaks of con-
tinued firmness in the currency, with light supplies. Al
Mark Lane this morning the attendance was small, and
buyers operated with their wonted caution, but the sup-
plies of all kinds of both English and foreign grain were
extremely light, and the tone in consequence firm.
English wheat was purchasable only at the extreme rates
of Monday last.

Foreign wheat on stands quoted fully as dear although
purchased sparingly. For cargoes off the coast, of which
36 are on sale, stiff rates are demanded.
Flour purchased sparingly, but quite firm.
Barley scarce, and tending against buyers.
Beans and peas unaltered.
Oats in steady demand.
Malt firm.
NEWGATE AND LEADENEIALL.

MEAT—The trade throughout looks very healthy with
an improving tendency. Demand is good, and the mar-
kets cleared off. Fair but not heavy supplies
.sent. up.

improvement.

THE JONGHMANS"FESTIMONIAL.—We are pleased
to hear that through the exertions of the honorary secre-
tary, Mr. Vandervell, the subscriptions to this testimonial
have now reached to nearly £lOO. On reference to our
advertising columns, it will bo seen to whom donations
may be foi warded.
The Publishers' Circular mentions an incident at
the sale of the library of the late Mr. Windus, of
Tottenham, as showing the increasing value of choice
books. One of the gems of the collection was a copy, on
large paper, of Dr. J. T. Dibdin's
" Bibliographical, Anti-
quarian, and Picturesque• Tour in France and Germany,"
illustrated with etchings, India proof engravings, private
plates, original drawings by Lewis, Pugin, and others, ex-
tending the three volumes to tix. The copy was formed
by Mr. Eyton, and at the sale of his library 20 years
ago it was purchased for £63 by Mr. Lilly, who disposed
of it for £lOO. The same book was knocked down a few
days since for £240 to Mr. Harvey, of St. James's-street
the next bidder being again Mr. Lilly, its former pos-,
sessor. This sale afforded many other exemplifications of
the same fact.

The Australian papers contain lengthy accounts
of the funeral obsequies of the late Governor-General, Sir
Dominick Daly. The funeral took place on Saturday, the
29th of February, and was of a most imposing character.
The solemn dirge was sung by the Rev. G. A. Reynolds,
in the Cathedral, Adelaide. The Rev. Father Smyth
preached the sermon. At the conclusion of the sacred
ofllce the body was borne to the cemetery, attended by
the Bishop of Adelaide, a great nutnbir of the clergy, and
and all the leading persons in Adelaide. On Sunday the
death of this distinguished man was alluded to in terms of
the deepest sorrow in every church and chapel in Adelaide.
lie was universally respected, and the clergy of all deno-
minations united iu paying a last public tribute to his
memory.

There was once an Irish Protestant bishop of
benevoleat disposition, says the Saturdag Review, who was
much given to investigating the condition of the Catholic
children on his estate ; and being of au inquisitive turn of
mind, he was anxious to ascertain their views about what
the Record would call his "eternal prospects." Su ho one
dAy popped the question to a curly-headed little urchin,
who was a special hymn-Re, as to where ho expected him,
the bishop, to go to when he died ? To his considerable
surprise tho young catechumen replied that he hoped his
lordship would go to heaven. "But, you know," said the
bishop, " I am a heretic, and all heretics go to the wrong
place, don't they?" "Oh no, not you," was the artless
rejoinder; your lordship is so inconceivably ignorant.'
" Invincibly ignorant" the child had been taught to say,
but both words being equally beyond his comprehension,
ho naturally took the first that came to hand.
The young girl MargaretlYalsh, the pupil teacher
in a C..tholic school at Westanr3ster, who was charged
with putting one of the pupils, a child four years old, into
a copper of boiling water, was tried at the Middlesex Ses-
sions on Friday. The defence, as when thb ease was be-
fore the magistrate, was that the child was not intention-
ally put into the copper, but fell in by accident. She was
acquitted, but the Assistant Judge warned her to be mono
careful, in future.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —Holloway's Pills.—The diseases
common to winter, and endangering man's physical con-
dition, will always exist strongly, though many may bo
mitigated, and their effects removed by timely aid, appro-
priately applied at the beginning of spring. Holloway's
Pills are ucknowledgedged fur and wido to be the most
effective purifier of the blood, the most certain regulator of
disordered organs, and the Most innocent aperient that can
be prescribed. This medicine is applicable to all alike,
young or old, robust or Vicate. It increases the appetite,
and controls all derange ent of the bowels. After the
disorder is subdued, occasional doses of these pills will
prevent any relapse, and moreover secure, promote, and
intensify the good result's which flow from perfect purity
and regularity.
