the English suppose that longevity
eres in the descendants of George Ill,
the WatcAman and Reporter, they are
,fotso we'll acquainted with the history Of
Nheir rulers as they might be. That mon
arch was the father Of fifteen children-of
whom Prince Alfred died in his second
wear, and Prince Octavius in his fifth
year. The Princess Amelia died just
after she had completed her twenty-sev-
enfh year. Prince Edward, Duke Of
Kent and father of Queen Victoria, died
at the opening Of his fifty-third year.
Prince Frederick, Duke of York, died in
his sixty-fourth year, and George ", the
oldest son and successor of George Ill,
died some weeks before the completion
Of his sixty-eighth year. Prince Angus
tus Frederick, Duke Of Sussex, died just
after the completion Of his seyentieth
year, and Prince Adolphus Frederick,
Duke Of Cambridge, in his seventy-sev-
enth year. The longest-lived Of all
George Ills sons was, we think, Prince
Ernest Augustus, Duke Of Cumberland
and King Of Hanover, who died In 1851
in his eighty-tirst year. Three Of George
Ills children died young, and only three
or four reached to old age.
In England no man Is held to be old
who has not completed his SEVENTEEN
year. The celebrated Princess Charlotte,
Oldest grandchild Of George III, died at
the close Of her twenty-second year. At
one time It seemed as II the line Of George
III. were about to become extinct, so few
Of his sons and daughters had children.
We should think the Prince Of Wales
life would be considered a bad one to
place in lease, for It is remarkable
fact that only four Of the English Princes
Of Wales ever reached TO the age Of sixty
eear1. Two Of these exceptions were the
inces who Afterwards became Edward
and George W, Deitber Of whom

The demand for domestic Wool continues steady
but moderate and pieces remain the same Dealers

ta1n and prefer to hold on to their Wool unless re-
sponsible buyers present themselves
In New York the market has not disnlayed anv
activity. though quite fair business has been in
small way. Prices continue very steady, though
slight concession would in all probability, be made
for prompt cash.
In Philadelphia the quetude which has marked
tine course OF the trade for time past still
tnues, with but little probability of any improve
ment until there is an increased demand and better
rates fol manufactured goods. Values, as rule,
eAhblt no important changes. Manufacturers IN
the present depressed condition of the Dry Goous
market manifest no disposition TO purchase except
for immediate necessities The recent failures at the
Eastward have in no wise effected the credit Of Phil
adeIphia houses, as the losses have been trifing.
