MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

Notwithstanding the arrivals of country-killed Meg,
have been very limited since this day se'nnight, we have
to report a heavy general demand, in consequence of the
large supplies offering slaughtered in the metropolis.
However, the primest Beef and Mutton have, in some
few instances, supported previous rates; but other kinds
of Meat have declined 2d per Ribs. A few carcases of
foreign Beef and Mutton have sold at previous rates.

BOROUGH AND SPITAIMIELDS.
The arrivals of Potatoes, owing to the contrary winds,
have been very limited during the week, from which
the demand here is steady, and some holders have ob-
tained a trifle more money for good qualities. About
40 tons have come to hand from Rotterdam, and
which have sold at 35s per ton. Per ton :—York Redo,
608 to 75s ; Perth ditto, 50s to 55s ; Early lli-vons,

BOROUGH HOP 71SARILBT.
Since our last report there has been a very active in-
quiry- for all kinds of hops, at in some instances, further
improved rates. The duty has not yet been declared,
and it is nominally estimated as last week. The show
of new Hops is good, that of old one's very small.

WOOL ErIARMET.
The imports of Wool, since our last, have been un-
usually small, they having amounted to only 200 bales.
Although the supplies offering in the private market are
by no means extensive, the demand for all descriptions
of Wool is in a very sluggish state, and prices are not
supported.

TALLOW IVIALRICET.
This market is not so much affected as might be ex-
pected from the sudden and heavy arrivals which have
come in within the last three or four weeks ; neither has
the delivery for the past week been so large as was anti-
cipated ; yet the market may, under all circumstances,
be considered firm, prices for the spring being 41s 3d--
rather buyers than sellers. Up to the time of our writing,
the mail due has not arrived ; but there are upwards of
2,000 casks included in the stock of this day, the advices
of which had not reached the parties to whom they are
consigned. Town Tallow is 41s 6d nett cash.

DEPARTURE OF THE COURT FROM WINDSOR
CASTLE.—WINDSOR, SUNDAY EVENING.-Her Majesty
and his Royal Highness Prince Albert will take their
departure from the Castle for Buckingham Palace to-
morrow morning, between eleven and twelve o'clock, a
special train having been commanded to be in readiness
at the Slough station, at noon, to convey the Court to
Paddington. The Court will leave Buckingham Palace
at an early hour on Tuesday morning far the Euston-
square terminus of the Birmingham Railway, and thence
in the state carriage of the Company, by a special en-
gine. to the Weedon station. From Weedon, where her
Majesty's carriages and horses will be in waiting, the
royal cortege will proceed through Northampton and
Kettering to Stamford. The route from the Weedon
station to Burleigh house will be divided into four
stages, for the first three of which relays of her Majes-
ty's horses have been stationed on the road. The horses
of the Marquis of Exeter will convey the Court the last
stage on to •Burleigh-house. Her Majesty: and the
Prince will, according to the present arrangement, return
from Burleigh on Friday next.

DALSTON AND KINGSLAND.—A large and influen-
tial meeting of the inhabitants of the above district was
held at the Tyssen Arms, Dalston, on Thursday evening,
the 7th instant, for the purpose of taking into considera-
tion the best means of establishing a Literary and
Scientific Institution in the neighbourhood. The room
was crowded to excess, and the utmost unanimity pre-
vailed, one and all agreeing that such an institution would
be of great advantage. Resolutions to this effect were
passed, and a number of gentlemen added their names to
the previously formed Pr,visional Committee. We
wish the above project all success. Such institutions do
indeed confer advantages on the neighbourhood in which
they are established, and society in general but too little
appreciates the good they produce, the evil they pre-
vent. Many and many a thoughtless youth, who would
have run riot in dissipation, has, by being brought
within the influence of such establi.hments, been saved
from degradation—from vice—from infamy. It is an
almost imperative duty on all to further the advance-
ment of such institutions. Fathers should do it for the
sake of their children—young men should assist for
their own as well as their companions' sakes, and even
the magistracy should reflect that" whateier does good
debars evil," and hence they too should add their aid
and influence. The above institution, we observe (from
the circular sent to us), is based on the broadest liberal
principles, and we congratulate the projectors that they
have had the good sense to avoid those sectarian limits
which have, unfortunately, in too many instances, ruined
the best intentioned schemes.

Earl Fitzhardinge arrived at his residence, Ger-
man Cottage, on Thursday afternoon ; on which day the
Noble Earl's foxhounds met, for the first time, at Lit-
combe. His Lordship's return to Cheltenham for the
hunting season, was welcomed by a lung and merry peal
from St. Mary's bells. His Lordship, according to esta-
blished usage, will hunt the Broadway country to-day:—

CORN-EXCHANGE—MONDAY.
During the past week the arrivals of all descriptions of
Grain for our mat het have been on a very moderate
soak, but, fur the most part, of fair average quality.
Fresh up, coastwise, as well as by land eerriage, and
sample, the receipts of Wheat of home produce were by
no means large, while the show of samples was far from
extensive. There was a fair average number of buyers
in attendance, yet the general demand was far from
active. However, the best descriptions were mostly dis
posed of at prices equal to those obtained on Monday
last, but, in some few instances, the out of condition
sorts were ss. per quarter lower. Owing to the firmness
displayed by the holders, the transactions in fine foreign
Wheat were wholly of a retail nature ; but in prices
we have no variation to report. The quantities on
which duty has been lately paid have been extremely
small. So little business was doing in Corn under lock,
that the rates must be considered almost nominal. The
show of English Barley was small, that of Foreign tole-
rably good. The best malting parcels supported previous
figures, but grinding and distilling sorts were very dull.
Although the supply of Malt was small, that article met
a slow inquiry, at barely last week's quotations. The
Oat trade was comparatively steady, arising chiefly
from the short arrivals, and the currencies ob-
tained on this day se'nnight were supported.
For Beans there was a ready sale, at an advance of is
per quarter. In Peas a good business was transacted,
and the rates improved Is per quarter, at which a good
clearance was effected. The Flour trade was, on the
whole, heavy, yet the rates were unaltered. There was
a large quantity of Linseed offering, and which caused
the sale tor it to rule heavy, at barely previous rates.
All other kinds of Seeds were a dull sale.

slvErrarsELD.
Compared with that exhibited on Monday last, the
supply of Beasts offering was rather limited, yet it proved
tolerably extensive, the time of the year considered. As
has been the case fur many weeks past, the quality of
this description of stock was very inferior ; indeed, a
large portion of it was less than half fat. The attend-
ance of both town and country buyers being somewhat
numerous, and the dead markets being well cleared of
their last week's supplies, the Beef trade here to-day was
by far more active than for some lengthened period, and
in every instance an advance took place on last week's
quotations of quite 2d per Sibs ; the primest Scots rea-
dily producing 4s per Blbs, and at which a clearance was
readily effected. The imports of live stock under the
new tariff, during the past week, have consisted, for
London and the various outports, of 150 Beasts and 160
Sheep from Germany and holland. To-day we had on
sale 25 Beasts and 34 Sheep, in moderato condition. The
above arrivals, added to previous importations, form the
following totals for the present year :
Basts 3,550 head
Sheep 924
The northern droves of Beasts fresh up comprised about
1,600 short horns. 'Those from Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex,
and Cambridgeshire were 300 Scots, &c. ; from the
western and midland districts 400 Herefords, runts,
Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England 400 of vari-
ous breeds ; from Scotland 180 horned and polled Scots;
and from It eland 40 Beasts. The supply of Sheep was
moderately good, while the Mutton trade was steady, and
last week's prices were fully obtained in every instance.
Although the numbers of Calves were small, the sale for
them was in a v,ry sluggish state, at the late depression
in the currencies. In Pigs, the supply of which was
good, very little was doing, at our quotations.
