LITERATURE.

THE ENGLISHMAN'S GUIDE TO CALMS.
Lownow, 1829.

This is a very beautifully printed book, and
of a useful practical character as regards its in-
formation. Travellers will find it just the thing
to suit them in a hasty ramble to Calais. The
extracts at the end of the work, from Froissart's
(the Coryplimus of chivalrous narrative) account
of the Siege of Calais, though somewhat ger-
mane to the business of the book, are highly en-
tertaining, and will be perused with interest.

SALMON FISHING.--In the northern rivers
this year, the fishing has been but indifferent, excepting in
grilse and trout. In the Moray Firth, a large descliption
of salmon has within these few days appeared, averaging
about 18 lbs. One was caught at Holm, weighing 34 lbs.
At Beauly, we understand, the take of grilse has been good,
and last week, in one day's fishing, from 700 to 800 were
caught, but only three Ltlawns— Caledonian Mcreur,y.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY).

CORN EXCHANGE.

The supplies of foreign Wheat and Oats continue consi-
derable, but of English Grain short. The weather being
changeable, causes the factors to ask more money for
Wheat, but they cannot obtain any higher prices than on
Monday, as not many buyers are in attendance. Barley,
Beans, and Pease, are dull at last quotations. Oats of
good quality alone command attention at Monday's prices.
In Flour no alteration.
