MANCHESTER .CORN MARKET.—June 14.
The trade during the present week has been confined to
the needy consumers, who are forced to purchase for im-
mediate consumption, and the few sales effected were at
prices similar to last Saturday. We bad a full attendance
of millers and dealers at market to-day ; the show of Eng-
lish and Irish Wheat was small, Foreign appears in suf-
ficient quantities to supply the present demand : all sorts
of Wheat may be noted 2d. per 701 b. cheaper ; grinding
Barley is likewise 2d. or 3d. below last Saturday's rates,
and Oats are further reduced in price Id. per 451 b. There
is nothing passing in the Pea trade; Beans are also dull
sale at is. to 2s. per quarter below last Saturday's prices.
The hot weather contracts the present demand for Malt,
the brewers and dealers not caring to hold a stock; how-
ever the prices continue as last noted. The sale of Flour
is slack, and some millers are pushing trade at Is. below
last week's rates ; Oatmeal is full Is. per load cheaper, and
dull sale.

A SPQR INTELLIGENCE.—The
ffi
OE TRceXrsof
one rill Hussars are now training their
ctegers to -run on the heath at Hounslow. Major BACON
is preparing splendid dresses for the jockies. Some of the
Officers will ride their own horses ; they will run in Sep-
tember. Marquees will be erected, and a dejeune given to
the Ladies.

THE PARK AND THE GARDENS.--A visible
diminution was observed yesterday in the gay cavalcade;
yet still the fashionables of the highest order linger, as if
loth to depart. Indeed many have expressed an intention
of continuing in town till the ensuing month is far ad-
vanced. At five o'clock there was a double line of
carriages approaching Kensington Gardens : at the hour
of six, the Long Walk was nearly full. Great taste in
dress. We believe that fashion never presented a less di-
versified picture of caprice than at the present moment.
The magnificent hat now worn, although large, is so judi-
ciously formed and shaded by its ribbons of gossamer, that
the effect on the face is excellent.

HIGH OFFICES.—THE BISHOPS.—It has
been said (I believe by D'Alembert) that the highest offices
in Church and State resemble a pyramid, whose top is ac-
cessible to only two sorts of animals, eagles and reptiles.
My pinions were not strong enough to pounce upon its top,
and I scorned by creeping to ascend its summit. Not that
a Bishopric was then or ever an object of my ambition ;
for I considered the acquisition of it as no proof of personal
merit, inasmuch as Bibhopries are as often given to the
flattering dependants or to the unlearnPd younger branches
of noble families, as to men of the greatest erudition ; and
I considered the possession of it as a frequent occasion of
personal demerit, for I saw the generality of the Bishops
bartering their independence and the dignity of their order
prelacy,
for the chance of a translation, and polluting Gospel hu-
mility by the pride of ---,Bishop watson.
