METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Supplies of stock were much lighter this morning, and
trade consequently more cheerful, although the reports
from Nowgate and Leadenhall rather damped the rise in

prices.

Of beasts there were 60 from Scotland, 360 from Ire-
land, 1,910 from various parts of England, and 2,280 from
abroad. Of choice beef there was very little offering, and
higher rates were fixed. Middling also sold dearer.

The number of sheep was 24,330, and for good saleable
descriptions the demand was rather brisk. Large sheep
did not sell so well, but realised advanced prices, 46
calves on sale.

Pork ruled quito up to last quotations. Thirty-five pigs
at market.

Total at market—Beasts, 4,610 ; sheep, 24,330 ; calves,
46 ; pigs, 35.
Quotations—Beef, 5s 4d to 5s Gd; mutton, 3s 2d to 5s
4d; Veal, 3s Gd to 5s 10d; pork, 3s 2d to 4s 8d per stone

BOAT RACE FOR £4o.—This Day.

This afternoon George Shepherd, of Chelsea, and
Edward Eagers, of the same place, rowed from
Putney to Mortlake for £2O a-side. The men are
well known. Joh❑ helps, of Fulham, was referee.
After leading for 500 yards Shephrd fouled his
man, and continued it all the way, the decision of
the referee being in favour of Shepherd. He was
favourite at 6 to 4 at the start.

MARKE7 S-7 MS DAY.

CORN.

The general aspoct of the trade is without much varia-
tion ; but, if anything, the tone is barely so firm. The
country markets come mostly higher on the week, buy
finishing up at barely their best points.

At Mark-lane this morning there was not a large at..
tendance, and the trade was slow.
There was a good supply of English wheat which ren-
dered buyers more cautious. At the opening previous
rates were asked, but when sales were effected prices were
the turn easier.

Foreign wheat was also in good supply, and to effect
sales rather lower rates had to be taken.

Floating cargoes of wheat are in good demand, and fine
qualities command stiffer prices .Taganrog Ghirkas, at 49s
to 50s, c. f. and i., according to quality,/

The flour trade is dull, with quotations favouring
buyers.
Malt is a slow sale, but fine qualities quite as dear.
Fine malting barley firm, with moderate inquiry.
Grinding sorts rather quiet, without material change.
Beans and peas firm, with light supplies.
New oats Gd cheaper for the week. Other sorts unal-
tered, and the trade quiet.

WOOL.

The sales of colonial linen furnished 208,000 bales,
having been declared, 20,000 bales withdrawn, 80,000 bales
sold for export, and the remainder purcnased by the linen
trade. Prices compared with the previous series
are ld lower for good faultless wools, 2d to 3d lower for
middling, and 3d per lb for defective, of which latter a
very large proportion consisted. The decline is attri-
buted in some manner to the indifferent qualities of much
of the wool offered, but more particularly to the continu-
ously heavy supplies.

LAMBERT'S ASTHMATIC BALSAM.—AN
EFFECTUAL REMEDY, without confining the
bowels or affecting the head, truly efficacious and pleasant,
is admitted to be the .best medicine for immediately re-
lieving coughs, colds, confirmed cases of asthma, and inci-
pient consumption. It frequently cures persons whom the
faculty pronounce incurable, and admirably allays the
ticking which provokes frequent coughing. In approach-
ing consumption its effects are truly beneficial. Persons
deprived of sleep, or even lying down for fear of suffoca-
tion, may depend on relief in a few minutes after taking it.
Prepared only and sold by W. LAMBERT, Chemist, 8,
Bing William-street, Charing-cross, London, and by all
druggists, in bottles, 131 d., and three quantities in one,
2s. 9d. each. Be particular, and ask for Lambert's Asth-
matic Balsam. The name and address are engraved on the

THE REV. CANON MELv.r.qp: opt THE;
LATE DEAN MILMAN.

An immense congregation assembled in St. Paul's
Cathedral on Sunday afternoon, to hear the Rev. Canon
Melville. Every available seat was occupied, and hundreds
went away unable to obtain standing room. The great.
repute of the preacher, and the expectation that his sermon
would have reference to the death of the late Dean Milman:
was the cause of the unusual attendance. The pulpit, et:Mi.
munion table, and reading desk were draped in black. The
text was from the 13th and 14th verses of the Epistle of
St. Paul to the Phillippians. The preacher dwelt with
much eloquence on the character of the great apostle, and,.
closed his sermon with these remarks : " It would hardit,
become me to speak in this cathedral of a Christian
course that is going on to perfection, and to omit all men-
tion of 'that honoured and venerable man, the Dean of
St. Paul's, who has just gone hence to his everlasting
rest. A lengthened mention would indeed be better,
when the cathedral which he long dignified by his presi-
dency shall have received, as it soon will, his honoured
remains ; but 1 may not hesitate to express the deep
sense which all connected with St. Paul's entertain
of the irreparable loss which his decease has entailed.
Ills vast and varied learning, his extraordinat
diversified powers—the scholar, the poet, the historian,
the critic, the divine—his large and tolerant views,
his simple, unaffected piety—Oh ! where can we hope to
find again such a union? Better than all, better than the
accumulated stores of knowledge—accumulated but eve
ready to be communicated—better than the strivings of a
vigorous intellect, better than the soarings of a brilliant
imagination, better than all or any of these, was the simple
and childlike docility with which, as we believe, our dean
received the Gospel of Christ, and the firm, unflinching
faith with which he rested on Christ his Redeemer. Wei
shall lay him in his grave in the sure and certain hope
of a resurrection to eternal life, not because he has left
few to rival him in erudition, in sagacity, in large-
heartedness, and in acuteness, but because we believe that
as a Christian man he daily endeavoured to become more),
what a Christian should be, and that, conscious of
defects, but yearning after perfection, he would have
said to the last, in the words of our text, " Forgetting the
things that are behind, I reach forward to those which are
before.' "
