SALE OF AMERICAN HAY IN LONDON.

enterprising American merchants to ascertain how
far It is possible to supply the English market with
hay grown in the northern part Of the United
States, and considerable curiosity was exhibited
amongst dealers and others using great quantities Of
hay, who very narrowly inspected the samples
shown both at the Corn. market, Mark-lane, and at
the brokers' counting house. The quantity an
nounced was something like Is 1-2 loads, which
weighed on shipment $50 cwt., but which on land
ing had Diminished in weight to 2S1 1-2. The
quality appeared rather coarse to English eyes, but
the hay was, though somewhat reedy, sound and
well got. consisting chiefly Of bents and white clo
ver,with fair admixture of Timothy grass and the
common foxtail,-what would be called fair stock
fodderby an English farmer. A somewhat inferior
sample 81 this hay lately sdla at Liverpool for
Id to Sd. per stone, which would be about E5
per ton; whilst English hay Of the same quality
was fetching e5 los. per load of SO trusses weigh
ling 70 cWt., thus giving balance in favor Of the
present sale will determine the question whether
such description of produce can be'brought to an
English market at profit. The freight upon the
present importation is 25s. per ton, which would
be 22s Cd upon a load, whilst the duty upon the
load of IS cwt is 16s and per cent additional,
making together better than 3ss. Cd. independently
OF wharf charges, housing, &c. all to be deducted,
leaving the actual price something like from 5Osto
SOS. per load for the American shippers at New
York. A great difficulty, moreover, and one which
it would seem must have been attended with con-
siderable expense, was experienced in landing this
hay, as the docks cod not take It in or housc it,
owRiag to It's being combustible matter, which in
case of fire occurring from spontaneous ignition or
otherwise, would vitiate their policies. 1t was
therefore Of necessity discharged in lighters in the
stream, duty paid, and housed in private yard
In ahe event Of such an importation being paying
one, even in The slightest degree, it would be
useful freight for running ships al this period of
the vEhan Ofhor of1 fo

would be almost illimitable.- Wiinc,'s Neses Lett

Ps4eyism and tie Queen.--On her first visit to
Scotland, it win be remembered that the Queen re.
fused to attend the Presbyterian churches, and
when in place where there was no Episcopal
Church, had service performed in her own apart
merits: ahis was matter Of great rejoicing to the
true sons OF the church. though grievous to her
Scotch subjects. But during her late visit her
Majesty has taken better counsel, and, to the as.
constituent OF the Puseyites, actually attended the
PRESBYTERIAN service at Blair Athol, though there
was Episcopal service in the place of ihe same
