Ttu'tenhall Rectory, June 27, 1853,
DEAR S.-1:—I have mushpleasUre in reccr ding my estimate
of the ta-st'Examination ofAht oft's Grauge.School. It differed
from some ef those at which' I have heen present at Tarvin-
Hall in this respect, that'the interest, instead of being centered
in one or•twe leaders, •was snore equally diffused throughout
the School. I consider the-general standard of scholarship and
intelligence In be, on thevivhole, superior to what of any former
year.
But the.special merit•of the School-isfia my opinion, the
combination of a very wide range of subjects with a sound sys-
tem of liiglt classical instru•ction. In the .present day we can
dispense,Mth neither. Leernestly trust 'that you may be ena-
bled to maintain the nobletpost you havelser,allantly occupied.

PROVISION MARKETS

LIVERPOOL, JULY 29.—There is rather an improved feeling
towards Beef, and an increased demand is looked for. In Pork
there is also more doing both for export and for stores. Bacon
is firmer held, the demand this week having been rather active;
and, as the import has fallen off, present prices are likely to be
sustained. Shoulders at the decline are rather more looked
after. At an advance of 6d. to Is. per cwt. there has been a
large business in Lard, the sales reaching to about 300 tons.
Holders now ask a further advance. The late arrivals of Cheese
are well cleared off at full prices, especially for the finer sorts
Grease Butter is very scarce.

Auo. I.—There has been a fair demand for Butter of all
descriptions since our last report, and in consequence of the
high prices paying in Ireland, and the healthy tone of the
London market, prices have advanced fully 2s per cwt., and the
dealers have some difficulty in supplying tl.eir wants, owing to
the smallness of the stock. Middling and low qualities are
much in request. The most favourite brands of Waterford,
Carrick, and Clonmel, may now be quoted at 90s to 93s ; Kil-
kenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 90s to 925; Belfast, 89s to 91s;
Limerick, 86s to 888; Sligo, 86s to 885; and pickled Cork
seconds, sGs per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the
25th July to the 30th July, both inclusive:—]2,113 firkins, 185
kegs, 662 crocks, 466 boxes, 305 bat rels Butter; 10 bales Bacon;
3 hogsheads Hams; and'49 kegs Lard.

ARRIVAL OF THE LADY EGLINTOUN

The screw-steamer Lady Eglintoun, Captain Paton,
arrived on Thursday, after a passage of 111 days from
Quebec.
The coroner's inquest on the persons killed on the
occasion of the Gavazzi riots at Montreal had been
brought to a conclusion, but the jury were unable to
agree upon a verdict. Instead of a verdict, special re-
turns were handed in by the divided jurors. The result
had caused great excitement at Montreal.
The Hon. Sir James Stuart, Bart., Chief Justice of
Canada, died at Quebec on the morning of the 16th.
Her Majesty's steamer Devastation sailed from Quebec
for the fishing grounds on the 16th. Her Majesty's
frigate Leander was also b leave Quebec for the Gulf on
the 16th.
A court-martial had been commenced at Montreal on
the 15th on the officers and men engaged in the Gavazzi
affair.
The lion. John Ross, Solicitor-General for Upper
Canada, had been returned for the town of Niagara
without opposition.
The woods in the neighbourhood of Bytown had been
on fire for several days, and it was feared much property
would be destroyed.
A severe hailstorm occurred about seven miles west of
Toronto on the 15th. Hailstones two inches long and
one inch wide were picked up.
The steamer Empire, on her trip from Albany to New
York, on the 16th, was run into by a sloop, off Pough-
keepsie, and one of her boilers thrown overboard. Eight
or ten persons were badly scalded and two killed.
The weather had been delightful in Western Canada.
The wheat was nearly ready for harvesting, and the crop
would be a large one.
Breadstuffs had considerably advanced in Montreal.
Flour was quoted 225. on the spot, and 235. 6d. per
barrel for August delivery. Wheat had also advanced
still more in proportion ; and, if tonnage were abundant,
the market would be quite active.

LAUGHABLE ADVENTURE.—During the past winter, a
reverend clergyman in Vermont, being apprehensive that
the accumulated weight of the snow upon the roof of the
barn might do some damage, resolved to prevent it by
seasonably shovelling it off. He therefore ascended it,
having first, for fear the snow might all slide off at once,
and himself with it, fastened to his waist one end of a
rope, and giving the other to his wife, he went to work ;
but fearing still for his safety, " My dear," said he, " tie
the rope round your waist ;" no sooner had she done this,
than off went the snow, poor minister and all, and up went
his wife. Thus on one side of the barn, the astounded
and confounded clergyman hung, but on the other side
hung his wife high and dry, in majesty sublime, dangling
at the other end of the rope. At that moment, however,
a gentleman luckily passed by, and delivered them from
their perilous situation,—Pennsylvanian Freeman,

the large safe you recently supplied us with, although exposed
during Sunday last to a fire which destroyed the larger part of

has in many parts melted the outside of the safe.

GENTLEMEN,—SOMe time back I was indebted to your
strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe for the protection of a
large amount of cash, against the violent and persevering
attempts of burglars at my steam-mills, in Woodstock-street,
and I have now the pleasure of informing you that I have
lately found the same impregnable security in the one I had
last trom you for my provision warehouse in Brownlow-bill.
The floor was all trodden over around the safe, as if the thieves
had beets at it for many hours, after which they got it out into
the back yard, and as it could not be picked or broken open,
they then filled the key-hole with gunpowder, thinking to gain
admission by explosion but in which they were again foiled.
"I feel it due to your invaluable safeguards to give you this
testimonial, and shall strongly recommend them to all my
friends. Please send one another of the same size for my house.

THE WEEK

THE react

nn after the excitement of an election
contest, and the season of the year when the order
is reversed and pleasure comrs before business, has
rendered the week very barren of incident, and left
us but little upon which to comment. The most

important topic just now is the weather,

as much

will depend upon the next few weeks as to the

ects of the coming harvest

Though not

much rain has fallen, the days have been cloudy, and
the absence of sun has delayed the ripening of the
fruits and rendered them al►rost destitute of flavour.

The corn fields are looking well and at present

promise abundance, but the sun's rays are re-

quisite to ripen the crop

The periodical election for members of the Dock
Committee in the room of those who go out by
rotation will take place to-morrow. An opposition
is to be made to the re-election of Mr. BOLD, in
order to demonstate a feeling of indignation at

his recent attempt to change the name of the
Bramley-Moore Dock. We unhesitatingly expressed

r objection to this course as unworthy of the

Conservative party; but the opponents of Mr

BOLD will be acting in a similar spirit to that for
which they condemned him, if they oppose his

re-election for no other cause. It will be admitted
that in every other respect he is well qualified for a
guardian of the Dock property, and the notice of
motion for which he is condemned can only be
considered as the ebullition of angry feeling arising
out of the excitement of a political contest, and with-
drawn upon reflection.

The great metropolis has been disturbed from its

propriety by a general strikd of the proprietors of
hackney carriages, known as "cabs," the sudden

and simultaneous withdrawal of which from the

d an immense amount of inconvenience
to the public, particularly the travellers by railway
who were incommoded by luggage. The ostensible

t.reets ca

cause for this extraordinary movement was the re-

nt Act, I

which the fares were reduced, and no

charge permitted for return within a distance of six
miles. The most humiliating part of the affair is

fact of a British Minister having condescended

PROVISION MARKETS.

LIVERPOOL, JULY 29.—There is rather an improved feeling
towards Beef, and an increased demand is looked for. In Pork
there is also more doing both for export and for stores. Bacon
is firmer held, the demand this week having been rather active;
and, as the import has fallen off, present prices are likely to be
sustained. Shoulders at the decline are rather more looked
after. At an advance of 6d. to Is. per cwt. there has been a
large business in Lard, the sales reaching to about 300 tons.
Holders now ask a further advance. The late arrivals of Cheese
are well cleared off at full prices, especially for the finer sorts
Grease Butter is very scarce.
Auo. I.—There has been a fair demand for Butter of all
descriptions since our last report, and in consequence of the
high prices paying in Ireland, and the healthy tone of the
London market, prices have advanced fully 25 per cwt., and the
dealers have some difficulty in supplying their wants, owing to
the smallness of the stock. Middling and low qualities are
much in request. The most favourite brands of Waterford,
Carrick, and Clonmel, may now be quoted at 90s to 93s ; Kil-
kenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 90s to 925; Belfast, 89s to 918;
Limerick, 86s to 88s; Sligo, 86s to 88s; and pickled Cork
seconds, 86s per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the
25th July to the 30th July, both inclusive :-12,113 firkins, 185
kegs, 682 crocks, 466 boxes, 305 barrels Butter; 10 bales Bacon;
3 hogsheads Hams; and 49 kegs Lard.

Companies against other Mutual Societies.
The Premiums ace low as those of the non-participating
scale of the Proprietary Companies. They admit of being so,
not only with safety, but with ample reversion of Profits to the
Policy-holders—being free from the burden of payment of
Dividends to Shareholders.
The principle on which the profits are divided is at once safe,
equitable, and favourable to good lives—the Surplus being re-
served for those members who alone can have made surplus
payments; in other words, for those whose Premiums, with
accumulated Interest, amount to the sums in their policies.
This principle, while it on the one hand avoids the anomaly
of giving additions to those policies which become claims in
their earlier years, secures, on the other hand, that there is no
member who has not been, in a pecuniary sense, a gainer by
the transaction, who does not receive a share of the Profits.
The practical working of the system has been, that at the
first Division of Surplus-15f years after the commencement—
Bonus Additions have been made to the Policies which have
come within the participating Class, varying from 20 to 54 per
cent. on the sumsassured.
