FLOUR AND GRAIN.--There is a much better de-
mand to-day for flour, and Genesee sells readily at
"a SIT, and Michigan at "a S13 a "a S7J We no.
ticc sales of 1000 barrels for England at a S7t In
Southern there is not much doing. New is worth
"a S7l rs for Georgetown and Brandywine.
Wheat is in good demand, but there is not much
here of good quality. Sales of Southern of poor
quality at 80 cents. Rye is in good demand for
export at 10 II cents. Corn is scarce, and we
quote Northern and Southern at go cents per Sc lbs.
Canal oats are in better request at 40 cents South
ern are worth 80 34i cents.
MONTREAL MARKETS, OCT. z.
Ashes are very dull to-day, and the transactions
quite unimportant. The high rates of freight now
paid for grain operate very much against shippers Of
ashes this fall and both sorts are quite neglected
FLouR.-An advance has taken place since the
arrival Of the mail; but, owing to the small quantity
Of shipping -four now on the market, very few sales
have as yet been quoted, and as freighs have
advanced materially to-day,-the rise on flour
will be consequently checked. A large quantity is
reported at hand, and at Kingston. A sale of 1000
of"Don" mills is quoted to-day at 2Ss. Cd. unin-
spected; but buyers generally are holding off.
We hear of no transactions in grain as yet this
week.

THE WORKING CLASSES IN ENGLAND

THE WORKING CLASSES IN ENGLAND.
Mr.. Willis, in letter to the Mirror, gives the
following account of the working classes in Eng.
land:
"During the four or five hours that was plav
ing the hanger-on to a vulgar and saucy custom
house officer at Liverpool, one or two contrasts
crept in at my dull eyes contrasts between what
had left and what was before me. The most strik.
ing was the utter want of hope in the countenances
of the working classes-the look of logged sub
mission and animal endurance OF their condition of
life. They act like horses and COWS. A SNOWY
equpage goes by and they have not the curiosity
TO look up. Their gate is that of tired donkeys
saving as much trouble at leg-fting as possible.
Their mouths ana eyes are wholly sens nal, ex-
pre- sing no capabty Of want above food
The dress is without thought Of more than
covering, drab covered with dirt Their voices
nrc half tone hove g'unt. Indeed, compar-
ing their condition with the horse, | would rather
be an English working horse. Aud you will easily
see the very contrast there is, between this picture,
and that OF the lively working men Of Gus country.
"Another contrast strikes probably all. Aaerl
cans on the first landing that OF feHahle, ffess.
The entire absence ofthe ornamental-of anything,
indeed except decent GOVERN i'm al classes be-
Now the wealthy, is parucu'arly English and par
'llculary un-Amelican. | do nst believe you
would find ten female servants in New York with
out pardon my naming it) "bustlo." Yet saw
MS many us two Hundred women in the streets OF
Liverpool AMI not one with a hustle! saw some
ladies get out Of carriages who wore them, SO that
it is not because it is not the fashion, but simply
because the pride (of those whose backs form but
one line) does not outweigh the price of the bran
They wore thick shoes such as scarcely q uan
would wear with us, no gloves of course, and theii
whole appearance that of females in whose
minds never entered the thought of ornament or
week days. This trhng exponent of the condition
of women in England, has large field of specua
ton within and around it, and the result OF phi
losophizng on it would be vastly in favor of ou
side of the water"

ANECDOTE OF THE LATE SENATOR
pNRTER

A correspondent of the New-York Spirit of the
Times, writing from Attakapas, relates the follow
ing an 'cdote of the lamented Judge Porter, man
whose wit aud presence of mind never deserted
him on any occasion. We give the story in the
words of the correspondent who signs himself NJ
Some years since the Judge was prosecuting an
individual of the most daring and reckless charac-
ter for burning the gin and otherwise inlurng and
destroying the property of his client, and in the
fearless and independent discharge of that duty il
became necessary to comment in strong terms or
the conduct and habits ofthe defendant The ev
drnce however, not sufficiently strong to bring
the facts directly home to him, and he was acquit
ted.
In the evening after the trial, the Judge was sit
ting on the piazza of the tavern entertaining TIT
court the Jury and the bar with some Of his mex
haustlblc fund of anecdotes when the defendant
looking as black thunder cloud ready to burs
on his devoted head, requested moments private
COW ersatoh with him. The Judge, although full
aware Of the nature OF this conversation, instantly
followed him to retired spot, under the shade 0
some lilac trees, when the substance of the follow
ing conversation occurred:
Sir you used such expressions o-day abou
me no gentleman can stand, and am determin
ed to have an apology or take instant satisfaction
'Why, SIR said the Judge, my client lnstructe
and paid to say these things, and you had bette
see him-and you ought to be satisfied that he di
not prove them'
Sir, your client is pitiful, sneakng scoundre
and nave thrashed him three times and intend
ed thrash all the endorsers of his Internal lies
WELL said the Judge, do you know what yo
remind me Off
No! und id if want to know
! But hear me-you have plenty of time
Say on then, be quick
! why, you remind me Of dog'-(here the de
PENDANT made an involuntary motion with his han'
- of dog that pursued and bit the stone that h
him, instead of the hind that threwit.'
Defendant, scratching his head, Il wish | ma
be shot if don't believe you are half right An
turning away must go and whip that fello

GEN. JACKSON ON PREACHING.

correspondent Of the Boston Post relates the
following anecdote Of the Genera:'
"In the winter of 1892, President Jackson con-
ferred the mission to Russia upon justly dlstln-
gulshed son of Pennsylvania. Before the newly
appointed minister however had departed on his
mission, he deemed it due to the President to ask
his counsel in reference TO the selection of Sec
retary of Legation. The President declined all
interference and remarked that the U. ). Govern
nent would hold him responsible for the manner
in which he discharged his duties, and that he
would consequently be at liberty to choose his own
Secretary.
The minister returned his respectful acknowl
edpenents but before taking leave, sought his
especial advice in regard to young gentleman
who was highly recommended by the (then) Secre
tary General Jackson promptly SAID, Il advise,
Won. sir. not to take that man, he is not a good
iudre OF preachingn The minister seemed puz-
zIed, and observed that the objection needed ex-
planallon,
IL am able to give it, SAID the old hero and he
continued; 'On Sunday morning | attended d.
vine services in the Methodist Episcopal Church in
this city. There listened to soul inspiring SER
mon from Professor Durbin, one of the ablest pull
pit orators in America. Seated in a pew near me
observed this identical young man, apparently an
attentive listener On the following day he came
into this Chamber OH public business, when | had
the curiosity TO ask his opinion of the sermon and
the preacher.
'And what think you, sir? the young upslart,
with consummate assurance, pronounced that ser
man all froth, and Professor Durblin humbug
took the liberty Of saying to him NY young man
you are hlmb'g, yourself and don't knoic il p
'And-now,' continued The venerable old man, his
eyes lighted up with intense animation rest assur-
red, my dear sir, that a man who is not better
Judge of preaching than that, is wholly unit to be
your companion And besides he added, if he
were the prodigy the Secretary of State represents
him to be, he would be less anxious to confer hi;
services upon you-he would be rather anxious &c
retain them HIMSELF The Presidents advice was
of course followed by the Ambassador, and The
young mans subsequent career of vice and folly
proved that the Generals estimate of his character
albeit founded upon common place occurrence, was
substantially correct"

nROTIIER AND SISTER.

Mrs Child relates the following pleasing anec-
dote in one of her New York letters to the Boston
Courier:

She stopped, looked up in my face SO rosy and
happy, and laying her hand upon her brothers
shoulder exclaimed earnestly"

warm gush into my heart Blessings on all unsel-

all into tune. Only by losing ourselves can we

Seruref one of Napoleons abest officers, gives
in his Military Memoirs the following sketch OF
scene after the battle of Austerlitz "At the

THE GIRL AT HER DEvoTloNs.

But wiring the heart that at the last they bruuk.

Her uyc is on picture, wo thaLovot
Love should thus struggle with viin endenyOr
Against itselr it Is common tale,
And ever will be while earth soils prevail
Over oarth's happiness it tolls she strovc
With silent, secret, unicquiled love-
It mqttois not its history love has wings
Like lighiniui swiG and fatal, and 1t springs
Like wild flower where it Is least expected,
Existing wheh her cherished or rciCctedj
Living wilh only but 10 be contcnt,
Hopeless, tor love is its own clement
Rponiring nothing $50 that it may BIO
The mar ,r of its fond fidelity
A mystery thou art, thou mighty one
We speak Thy nauc IN beauty, yet We shun
TO own thee, Live, guest; the poets songs
Are sweetest when their voice 10 tho belongs,
And hope sweet spiate, tenderness, delight,
Arc terms which thy own peculiar right
Yet NIL deny their mustef,-who will own
His breast Thy tootsool, and his heart thy throne

Too d. zziug to be scanned. the naughty brow
Seems to hide something 1t would not dvow;
But rainbow words, light laugh, aud thoushtess jest,
These are the bars, the curtain to the brcust,
That shuns scrutiny aud she, whose form
Now hcuds in grief beneath the bosOm's Storm,
Has hidden well her wound,-now none nigh

Strikes at the root of its best happiness,
And muckCry is wormwood,) she may dwell
