" Madam,—l have just read a letter written by you, de-
tailing facts connected with the past and present circumstances
of. Mrs. Dwyer, a very near connexion of the late Sir Sidney
Smith. The means at my disposal, being confined to limited
donations from a fund called the Royal Bounty, are very re-
stricted, but such as they are they shall be applied by me with

:o her. relic

" I think it probable that they cannot be so in a manner
more acceptable to her feelings than through your interven-
tion ; and if you will permit me, I will place the sum of £l5O
in your hands, to be applied for the benefit of Mrs. Dwyer.
I will write to Lord Haddington with respect to her son,
and mention the general purport of your letter to Mr.
Emerson Tennent.

I have the honour to be, Madam,

At this day's market the Wheat trade remained in nearly
the same state as described in the course of last week : having
again to notice a limited number of actual buyers, and the
millers, as usual at this season of the year, purchasing barely
sufficient for immediate consumption, all descrietions of fo-
reign free Wheats, for which the holders continued to resist
any further decline, appeared to remain unaltered in value;
and whilst English, principally restricted to moderate delive-
ries from the neighbouring growers, hardly maintained our
last' quotations, Irish samples, though in tolerable request,
were ld per 701bs cheaper.

Prime marks of English and Irish Flour, upon a moderate
demand, sustained former prices, but all tender and doubtful
samples met a very difficult sale, and were decidedly lower ;
good Foreign brands, at the same time, moving gradually, on
the terms last noted.

Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, with very little apparent
demand, scarcely supported late prices.

Oats, although by no means in lively request, were rather
more saleable, and realised the rates of this day se'nnight.
Oatmeal, on the contrary, was taken off sparingly at a de-
cline of 3d per 2401b5.
