" Any person of erdinary industry and intelligence,
from the Cato Major alone, in the course of six weeks or
two months, would acquire a knowledge of 'Latin, which
three or four years of erdinary school education rarely sae-
ceeds in giving."—Atlas.
" These keys are extremely well executed. With a se-
ries of such we have no hesitation in saying that a person,
by reading two hours a day regularly, may attain a compe-
tent knowledge of any European language in six months,
without encountering the irksome toil which renders the
study of a foreign language in the usual way so repulsive.
By the same process, we think as much Latin sniglst be
taught to a boy in two years as is now taught in five."—
Scotsman.

We know of no books so well adapted for rapidly com-
•municating a knowledge of language as these. The re-
marks which preface the Double Translation of Cicero's
most beautiful work, really convey more information to
the pupil than many whole grammars ; and the Transla-
tions themselves, both the free and the literal one, are exe-
cuted with very great ability. The books selected are ex-
tremely well chosen."—London Weekly Review.

HULL MARKET.--April 8.
We have again to notice a very limited supply of Wheats,
and the best qualities were in request at an improvement
of 2s. per quarter ; secondary runs also are free sale, and,
Is. per quarter dearer ; free foreign is held firmly at our
currency, but the sale is not brisk. Oats continue very
difficult to quit, and the transactions in them so limited
that our quotations may be almost considered nominrl.
Beans sell at last week's prices. Pease are very had to
quit, and rather give way in price. Barley to-day meets
only a limited sale ; some fine Norfolk was offering, but
we did not hear of any sale being made, we do not alter
our last week's currency fur this article. Rapeseed and
Linseed continue in very limited request.

CATTLE MARI:RT.—The show to-day consisted of 321
head of cattle, viz., 234 three-years-olds and upwards ;
22 two-years-olds ; 31 highlanders ; 26 queys, and 8
cows. The heavy cattle were a fine show, indeed by far
the best we have seen this season, and consisted of Runts,
Galloways, and Irishers. Dealing, although no better in
point of prices, was much brisker, and the Sands were
cleared at an earlier bonr than usual. We believe the
prices of those which took the market were as follows—
viz., for 50 Galloways, N. 10s. per head: 20 ditto, Si. ;
15 ditto, 81. ; 10 ditto, 8/. ;- 10 ditto, 71. 10s. ; 20
heifers, 71. 10s. ; 10 highlanders, Si. 10s. and 10 twd-
years•olds, 4/. A lot of 100 Angusshire runts, by far
the best in the market, which we heard estimated at 13/.
per head, were driven off unsold. We heard of no tran-
sactions in the Irishers, .ani few sales took place in the
cows.

Pow: MAIIKET.-Our supply of pork this week did not
exceed SO carts, which was all speedily sold off at from
55.9 d. to 6s. id. for superior pork, and from 58.2 d. to 50.9 d.
for inferior perk. Although the market was considered
brisk, prices were not so high as they were this ,day
week, but we heard this attributed to the limited at-
tendance of dealers, only two or three being in the market.

LIVE P1G5...—.1 carts ; the demand teas pretty fair, but
little business was done from the high prices.

ANNAN.—ApriI 3.
We bad a very thin bacon market to-day, the small
quantity which was exhibited for sale is not worth men-
tioning; eggs sold at 4d. to sd. per dozen ; butter at Is.
per lb.; hens at 2s. to 2s. 6d. per couple; potatoes were
retailed at the rate of is. 4d. per cwt. There were bui; few
live pigs in the market. and of an inferior quality; the
holders were asking 13s. to 15s. each for pigs of or about
eight weeks old.

That frying proof of the mutability of fortune,
Colonel GUSTAFFSON, has been resident lately at Aix •la-
Chapelle, where he lived in the utmost retirement ; but
has just left that city fir Holland. He travels generally
in the diligence, without rendering himself even there pro-
minent to 'the attention of such persons as accidentally
travel with him. It is melancholy to contrast things as
they are, with the animated description given of the youth-
ful Royal pair of Sweden, by Sir ROBERT KER. PORTER,
when he visited Stockholm. I have very frequently seen
her late MAJEsrY in her frequent visits to Switzerland ;
and the last time I beheld her (but a very short period be-
fore her death), I was much struck with " the dark eye
in woman," whose lustre neither years nor reverses had
tended to diminish, and which was formerly, if I remember
well, so much praised by Sir ROBERT PORTEA. There
was one trait in her character which did her honour,
and Could not but excite admiration. Whenever she
passed through the ancient but small town of Mondon,
in the Pays de Vaud, in her frequent visits to Lausanne,
she was accustomed to quit her attendants, for the purpose
of visiting the public cemetery, where she remained some
time alone and uninterrupted ; and, on her return, her coun-
tenance betrayed the melancholy feelings which possessed
her. It was over the humble and modest grave of Made-
moiselle DaRNELLIE, who bad had the care of her youth,
that she gave vent to her sorrow, and testified that neither
a throne, nor what is even more pernicious in that regard
than the throne itself--adversity—had cm rupted her heart.
..—Letter from the Continent,

Note.—The Licenses granted in Towns and Cities, ex-
cept London, cannot be distinguished from ethers. II
might be made up for the last year, only by reference to
the several Collectors ; but this would occasion very con-
siderable delay.
