GUANO.—The steamers, coasting vessels, railways,
&c., are in active operation in conveying this valuable
manure from the various cargoes that have recently ar-
rived into the port of London. There not having been
any importation during the last month along the coast
from Plymouth to Newcastle, except into this port, and
only two or three into Scotland, the demand is thrown
upon this market, and the rain so necessary to evolve the
ammonia from the guano, gives a further stimulus to the
trade, as this manure is so much wanted now for turnip
sowing and the second crop of grass. The only cargo
at Liverpool was for sale there on the 25th, and not a
single ship has been reported from either Cork or Fal•
mouth fur about a fortnight past, so that no further
arrivals can he expected for some time.

and Duchess of Cambridge, the Duchess of Sutherland,

hall on Friday evening.
