WOOL DICARRET.

The imports of wool since our last have amounted to about
3,200 bales, chiefly from our Colonies. Privately, a full
average amount of business is doing both in English and
Foreign, and prices are well supported.
TALLOW.

This market continues firm, and the prices have rather an
upward tendency. On the spot it is difficult to get new
Y.C. at our quotations of 41s 6d, or good old Y. C. at 41s par
cwt. There is very little of the latter description on hand.
The price at St. Petersburgh has advanced a little; but there
is a large business doing, and the shipments are progressing.
The quantity for London up to the 20t1 of August was about
4,000 casks more than at the same time last year. Town
Tallow is scarce at 42s to 42s 6d net cash.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ENGLISH TALENT.—Letters
from Vienna speak in terms of high commendation of the re-
ception which Lord Francis Egerton has received during his
stay in that city, on account of his literary and artistic merits.
Thomas Austin has obtained the same civilities at Frankfurt.
WAKEFIELD CIIURCII-RATE CONTEST.—TniS con-
test, after having been continued during foarteen days, closed
on Tuesday last, with a majority of fifteen in favour of Inc
rate. A scrutiny was demanded of the Vicar, on behalf of the
anti-rate party, but this the Rev. Gentleman declined to grant,
so that for the present the High Church and intolerant party
seems to be victorious. An article in our Supplement explains
the discreditable manner in which the triumph has been ob-
tained. We were informed yesterday, upon very good aut.!'
rity, that Mr. Robert Hall, the Deputy-Recorder of
borough, has been specially retained by the anti-r.te party to
the purpose of contesting the whole ea,e through the Ecclesi-
astical Court, and in all other respects with a view to null.fy
the whole proceedings. We hear also that notices have been
served upon each of the churehwardens and vicar not to sign
the rate, on the growl of its illegality ; and that measures wit,
be forthwith adopted to contest every point before the justice.,
of the peace, should the Church party determine to enforce
payment of the rate.—Leeds Mercury.
" Any iron wheel may be made to travel almo3t
noislessly along a railway," says a distinguished lecturer, " by
inclosing,its two sides with boarding on thin metallic sheeting,
so as to confine a quantity of sawdust in contact with its spokes;
sawdust being anti-vibratory, will effectually prevent the wheel
vibrating, thus enabling it to roll without noise. All who are
interested in lessening the noise of railway wheels should make
this easy method as public as possible, so that railway directors
may be urged to adopt a plan so inexpensive, efficacious, aad
desirable,

ATTE:III'I'ED SUICIDE.—On Friclay morning a most
determined attempt at suicide was made by T. Heady, Esq., a
gentleman re.iitling in Clarendon-square, Somers-town. iilr.
H. has been in a very desponding state for some time past,
owing to losses by speculation in railway shares. Yesterday
morning the servant took him up the hot water fur shaving,
and as he did not come down to breakfast with his usual
punctuality, his landlady went up to his bed-room ;en entering
which she found Mr. Heady lying upon the bed, bleeding pro-
tuaely from a wound in the throat that he had inflicted with a
ras.ir. Medical assistance was obtained and the wound closed,
and none of the principal arteries being injured, it is expected
he will recover.
