SONS OF THE CLERGY.—There wilt be no grand per-
formance this year in the St. Paul's Cathedral as
Paß been the custom for a century past. Objections. hav-
-Ing been made to the erection of scaffolding, which inter-
11Pted the daily service, the Archbishop of Canterbury,
acting under the advice of the Bishop of London, has de-
cided that the festival is to be confined to the performance
of one of the old services, with some increase of the choir.
THE TEA TRADE, March 4.—The deliveries of tea
last week were rather lower, being 435,8791 b., ; but the
Xeneral consumption for the present year has been very
good, having amounted to 4,351,0011 b. from London
71°11eincrease of nearly 300,0001 b., compared with
r"e corresponding period of last year. The stock, it
ust be remarked, is lower, being 25,208,0001 b. on the
ikt iost., against 27,532,0001 b. at the same date in 1843.
‘,7"e imports have been only 2,313,0001 b. this year, and
isebre 4+98.9,0001b. to March last year. Speculation in tea
; ecorning rather brisk ; and an extensive export demand
"8 lookedA for during the next two months.
OF THE FIRST SHIP-LOAD OF GUANO IN
jasinti.—We observe, from the Ayr Observer of
/411e,sidaY, that the Hamilla Mitchell, belonging to Bailie
'„.'enell, of this city, has arrived at Ayr with a
ielo cargo of guano from Peru. The Hamilla Mitchell
vet Valparaiso on the 7th November, and called off Li-
forlt:l°W orders on the 25th ult. This is the first ship-
,&„"t, 9f that valuable manure which has been. made to.
e.oit'e.e'd".l.re• Considerable difficulty, we believe, is experi-
,ll procuring guano, from the jealousy of the South
ItosetriFao governments in reference to it. Chili is the
h.beral. Native vessels bring it to Valparaiso, from
"Ich it is transferred to cur ,ships,—Girtr...tercrer.
