Two HUNDRED THOUSAND RHYMES
rERS.-ln the course of a speech de-
livered At the Burns Club annual dinner
at Edinburg recently, Professor Mason,
who proposed the toast, "The Poets OF
Scotland, " said he had made a calcula-
ton that probably in the British Island
at the present moment there are two
hundred thousand people writing verses.
Laughter. al stick to two hundred
thousand exactly. I cannot give you
the data on which l make my ~calcUla-
ton, but they satisfied myself at the
moment wheat Made then. And they
are not only making verses, but l assure
you making verses which would have at
tanned a reputation had they been writ
ten in the last century. The quantity Of
verses which is being produced in Eng
lish and Irish vicarages, in Scotch nam
ses, ana All sorts oil places, IS utterly
enormous. l DO not think it is any OBJ
lection to literature that it is becoming
v~oluminous, and that its practitioners
are becoming numerous. Perhaps IN
some fgtpre Tune tne distinction of q
man viii be-and he viii be pointed out
on The streets as a distinguished man
that hehas not written a book" Laugh

FINANCIAL.

Money matters still remain quiet and dull
in this market notwithstanding the reported
change in other markets. We say reported,
from The fact that the report received here by
telegraph and furnished 70 our Bankers and
merchants, have been ound so wholly unrelia-
bic that they have been excluded by the bank
ers as not worth the paper upon which they are
written, and they prefer 10 await the tedious
mails rather than base their operations upon
these very questionable reports
Exchange is sim in fair demand and no note
worthy Improvement IN the offerings, While
the rates are unchanged.
There IS no change 70 note In the Gold mar
ket, which remains steady at "a buying and ss
selling. Silver is in moderate demand at 81,
with but little in the market
Currency is rather easier than for the past few
days, though the Banks are still 10th TO part
with IL.
In Government stocks there is nothing do
ing.
There is a little more activity in Uneurrenf
Funds, and we heard Of one purchase OF the
notes or the Planters Bank OF Tennessee at SO.

The British steamers news so anxiousl,

Those who felt condden OF the advance Of tn,

Cotton during the week one-fourth OF a cent

heavily on many who have kept a firm conf

sign of the once absolutely expected " 80 cent:
for middliug, was a heavy trial, but when
March opens with a decline on the only ad.
vance Of the month, the effect is extremely dis
courasing. There was scarcely any inquiry
and offers were not pressed. In the morning
all were awaiting steamers news; in the even
