QUOTED PRICES OF ENGLISH WOOL.—It not un.
frequently happens that the quoted prices of English
wool at Leeds and Bradford are actually lower than the
prices quoted for the same wool when sold at the Lei-
cester wool fairs. The cause of this is, tbat a usage
exists at Leicester, which has grown into a rule of the
fair, of making a return or drawback on the part of
the seller ; so that the price actually paid is less than
the nominal and published price. It seems that at
the lat fair, on the 26th ult., an increased draw-
back was asked for by some of the buyers ; whilst the
lion. Mr. Wilson and Mr. Chapman stoutly protested
against any drawback at all, saying that it was a childish
practice, and advocating its abolition. In consequence
of their refusal to make the drawback, they did not sell
their wool. It is evident that the practice which these
gentlemen opposed cannot have the slightest effect on
the price actually paid for the wool; if the seller knows
he has to make a drawback, he will, of course, ask just
so much the more in the first instance for his wool, and,
therefore, the drawback might be abolished without
making the difference of one farthing either to buyer or
seller, whilst it had the advantage of making the pub-
lished quotations of prices correct and consistent, instead
of being incorrect and puzzling„—Leeds Mercury.

raxsczmi..axamous.

On Saturday night a long inquiry took place at the Nag'e
Head Inn, Wandsworth-road, before Mr. Higgs, relative to
the circumstances attending the decease of Miss Sarah
Greves, aged 13, the daughter of Mr. Greves, a saddler and
harness maker, in the Blackfriars-road. The particulars of
this melancholy case have already appeared. After evidence
of the facts had been adduced, the jury consulted for a few
minutes, and returned a verdict of " Accidental death," with
a nominal deodand on the cart and horses. The jury ap-
pended to their verdict this remark :—" That we severely
censure the practice or custom of taking the bits out of
horses' mouths whilst in the public roads."
On Saturday the third and last exhibition •of the Horti-
cultural Society took place at the gardens at Chiswick, and,
notwithstanding the very unfavourable state of the weather
was attended by a very numerous and distinguished com-
pany. It rained almost incessantly after three o'clock, and
the beautiful grounds which, in fine weather, afford such de-
lightful promenades, became muddy and sloppy, and were al-
most deserted for the tents.

It appears from the weekly report of the Liverpool cotton
market, that the stock in that port now exceeds one million
of bales (1,002,920), being the largest quantity stored there
at any one time, and exceeding the stock of the correspond-
ing period qf last year (which, until this week, was the
largest upon'iecord) by very nearly 40,000 bales.
The meeting of the Protestant citizens of Dublin toprepare
an address for presentation to the Earl and Countess De Grey
previous to their departure from Ireland, was held on Friday
at the yotunda. The attendance could not be said to have
heerivery numerous, and certainly not so respectable as might
have been anticipated. The chair was taken at one o'clock by
the Dean of Kildare, and a series of speeches and resolutions
applicable to the occasion having been spoken and agreed to,
the proceedings terminated before four o clock..
The parish of St. Mary, Newington, is at present in a state
of great excitement, caused by the attempt of the High
Church party to levy a church-rate, against which the
parishioners have successfully contended for ;the last eight
years. The Church establishment in this parish is supported
at a cost to the inhabitants of upwards of 5,000/. per annum,
and yet the clergy will 'not attend to the spiritual wants if
the poor in the workhouse unless a large sum be paid for the
services of a chaplain. This, then, is the chief ground on
which the rate is called for. A poll has been demanded, and
will take place to-morrow and Wednesday, July 16 and 17.

EMIGRATION AND COLONIZATION.
Mortimer, London, 1844.

The Author 'of this work, which embodies the
results of a mission to Great Britain and Ireland,
undertaken in 1839 and the three following years, is
a gentleman named Iralph,Tate emigration agent for
the Government of Canada, who has' brought a vast
deal of practical knowledge, and experience to the im-
portant subject which he discusses in the present vo-
lume. His main object appears to be to show the ne-
cessity of emigration, chiefly to Canada and our other
American settlements, for the relief of the home po-
pulation ; and he states, towards the close of his work,
that there is an earnest desire on the part of the Ca-
nadians to receive emigrants from the mother-coun-
try, in proof whereof he instances the willingness, of
the proprietary to devote portions of their territory in
free' grant to actual settlers, adding that the combina-
tion of land, capital, and surplus population might be
rendered mutually serviceable and available in carry-
ing on a large, profitable, and creditable system of
colonisation. To those—and they are a fast-increas-
ing class—who are interested' in the question of emi-
gration, this work will be found exceedingly useful,
if only from the multiplicity and variety of the statis-
tical facts which it contains.

HERRING FISHING.
HOLY ISLAND.—Already are the fishermen actively
engaged in preparations for the herring fishing. This
season, new regulations have been issued by •the
CUstom-house, thq boats are all marked B. 8., and
numbered. There are only six boats taken here yet,
though greater accommodation for curing can scarcely
be found anywhere, and all without any charge.
EYEMOUT/L—All is life and activity here at pre-
sent in preparing for the herring fishing curers laying"
irk stock, and the fishermen are daily employed with
their boats and nets. For tackle and powerful seawor-
thy boats, especially_thelatter,,our fishermen are not
to be surpassed, scarcely equalled. There will he
upwards of forty boats from here this season, most
of which are almost new. None of our fishermen are
engaged as yet; indeed so far as we know none of
them have made any offer. Both parties are deter-
mined seemingly to take their chance of an every-
day market, and to let quantity, quality, and demand,
regulate the price, which is undoubtedly the only
fair way for both.. The fishermen intend to make
a start on Monday night first, when we wish them
every success. Indeed their hopes are most san-
guine, the appearance at present being good.
rim are to be seen sporting a few miles off shore,
an 4 the gannet, or solan goose, in great numbers
hovering about. Some of the fishermen were tempted,
by the appearances the other night, to make a trial
with the jiggers; they went off and fell in with a
very large shoal of herrings playing; they, however,
caught only a very few scores the quality of which
was much better than we have seen this season.
Owing to the recent improvements in the harbour,
there will be afforded, every accommodation both to
curers and fishermen.—Berwick Advertiser.

THE POST-OFFICE INQUIRY.

A further message from the Commons communicated
the permission of the Commons to Lord J. Russell to
attend before their Lordships' Committee.
The Earl of RAI)NOR had seen it stated in some of
the ilewbvapers that he had consented to have his name
omitted from that Committee. He thought it right to
sav that he felt he ought to have been on the Committee.
The Duke of WELLING TON had supposed that the
which he had proposed for the Committee was uni-
verb ally approved of.
CORN-LAWS.

The Earl of RADNOR presented a petition from
agriculturists of Wiltshire, complaining of distress, and
praying for the repeal of the corn-laws, and all laws
against the importation of provisions. Their Lordships
had repeatedly denied that there was distress ; and a
Noble Lord near him said there was none in Wiltshire,
but the petitioners who resided there were likely to know
better than the Noble Lord (Methuen), who seldom

ykited the county.—(Hear, and a laugh.)'
Lard METHUEN said he was well acquainted with

tfre county, but he might not know as much of some par-
tichlac persons as the Noble Earl, who went about in
every' corner searching for statements of distress.—
(hear, an,:l a laugh.)
The ',Nike of RICHMOND presented petitions in fa-
vour of racte&ion, and said that he would send down a
pamphlet to ahov,- the true state of the questions to the
persons who signed the Noble Earl's (Radnor's) petition
from WiltshireAbut it would be of no use, as many of them
could not read.—(Hear', hear.)
Earl _RADNOR said the petitioners should be allowed
to express their opinions of their own interests, although
they could not read.—(Hear, hear.)
The Duke of RICHMOND had only said that his
book would be of no use to them, as they could not read;
he did not deny their right to petition.—(Hear, hear.)

THE NELSON MONUMENT.—We are glad to find
that the Lords of the Treasury have, at last, an-
nounced their intention of recommending to Parlia-
ment a grant of money for the completion of the
monument to the greatest of naval heroes. In a
Treasury minute, dated July 5, 1844, they state, as
there is no probability that any additional sum can
he expected from the present contributors ; and as
the monument has been erected with the full consent
and approbation of the Government, in the centre of
a square, on the embellishment of which so large a
sum has been expended, it would not be consistent
with what their Lordships feel to be due
to the memory of such a man, if they were to permit
the monument to remain in its present unfinished
and unsightly state. It appears that the total sum
required for the completion of the work is 12,095/.,
namely, for granite steps, 3,095/. ; four commemorative
subjects in bronze, 4,000/. ; four lions, 3,0001., and
architect's commission, 2,0001. The Lords of the
Treasury recommend a vote of 8,000/., which, with
the subscriptions in hand, will be sufficient for the
purpose.

[ADVERTISBNIENT.]—The Atrapilatory, or Liquid
Hair Dye, the only dye that really answers for alt co
lours, and does not require re-doing but as the hair
grows, as it never fades, or acquires that unnatural red
or purple tint common to all other dyes, Ross and Sons
can, with the greatest confidence, recommend the above
dye as infallable, if done at their establishment ; and la-
dies or gentlemen requirinr, it are requested to bring
their friends or servants with them to see how it is used,
which will enable them to do it afterwards without the
chance of failure. Several private apartments devoted
entirely to the above purpose, and some of their esta-
blishment having used it, the effect produced can be at once
seen. They think it necessary to add, that by attending
strictly to the instructions given with each bottle of dye,
numerous persons have succeeded equally well without
coming to them.—Address Ross and Sons, 119 and 120,

mensurate with its specific properties of speedily eradi-

&c. ; and of preserving and enhancing the beauty of the
complexion by a congenial action upon the skin, as
perfectly innocent, as it is agreeable and efficacious.

THE SHOOTING SEASON.—As the result of exten-
sive inquiries throughout the north, we may state that
prospects for the moors have not been better for the last
seven years. The birds are very numerous, and the re-
cent rains have proved exceedingly beneficial, coming,
as -they did, at the peribil of the young ones breaking the
shell. We understand that most of the !Perthshire moors
are let, and the same is the case with our more Highland
ones.—Yorthern Herald.
