THE MINCING-LANE MARKETS. ....
LONDON, August AIN the Mincing-Lane
markets during the past week there has not
been much animation. Prices occasionally
favored BUYERS. There was very little dis
position to operate in sugar. Most descrip-
tions Of raw have declined; crystaliZed
steady. There has been good business in
refined at full rates. Rice continues firm,
although arrivals off the coast have been
extensive. Transactions have been at full
TO slightly advanced quotations. There has
also been more inquiry for parcels on spot.
The Improvement in medium to fine teas
has been maintained. 4 fine business was
done, but Foo Chow sorts are much ne
elected. Coffee sold at full quotations for
good and fine Calory; othery kinds difficult
Of sale unless at lower rates.
The Economist saws: Prices OF stocks
the past week have been moved upwards
and downwards by political events, but
business has been exceedingly small, though
below the surface there seems to exist dis
position to greater confidence. Reports
about Austria raising money and mobollz'
ing troops caused general decline early IN
the week. Then followed general rise on
the statement in the House OF Commons
on Tuesday last Of Sir Stafford Northcote,
Chancellor Of the ENchequer, that it would
not he necessary to submit any speclai
vote on account OF the recent dispatch
OF troops and fleet to the East, and that
it is very doubtful whether it would be ne
cessary at all to ask for any further sum In
the course of the year, which seemed to be
cxccedingIy-wcll received on the continent.
On Thursday, while foreign stocks de-
clincd, there was a considerable rise IN
home securities, the ability Of the Turks
to defend the road to Constantinople being
taken to indicate less necessity for English
interference. On Friday prices were well
maintained, the result being general rise
in home securities, rs opposed to a, slight
decline in foreign markets. American Sc
curties continued to recover on kilograms
reporting the repression OF the riot. -..

"TIMES'S" CORRESPONDENT on THE sITUA-
TON. -.--.
LONDON, August 4.-Thc Daily Ne1cS
states that tile Channel squadron has been
ordered south to Vigo. Whether it Will
proceed further to Gibraltar or the Medl-
terranean, or return home after cruise,
will depend upon instructions which are to
await its arrival in Spain.
The Iinaes'S Bucharest correspondent,
reviewing the situation, thinks the panic in
Roumania groundless. The Plerna defeat
will certainly be retrieved. Discussing the
Russian chance of holding the positions in
the Balkan, il obliged to retire to them, the
1Imes's correspondent, who recently pass
ed through the schipka Pass, telegraphs
that it is strongly occupied and fortified:
There are already within it many trains OF

MlLLEk'S PoST-OFFICE, Va,


August 4, 1877. : -a
Editors Dispatch: The gubernatorial
contest seems TO excite less interest this year
i'm our section OF Underwater Virginia than
any election SINCE the war, and perhaps the
chief reason is the fact that party spirit is
not so moved as when the lines between the
races were sharply defined. The colored
people seldom speak Of State politics, and
appear to feel no concern with regard to the
coming election. ...,e -
One OF the Lees has, to all appearances,
the chief place in the hearts OF our people,
and will probably receive majority OF the
votes OF their representatives in the Con-
vention on the second or third ballot
While there is no decided favorlte with
us, there is one candidate who, il he de-
pended for his nomination upon the voters
OF Essex and the ncighbOring counties,
would lead Il forlorn hope. Our people seem
not inclined to be adjusted" in General
Mahone's conception Of the meaning Of that
term. .... .'.""
Mr.. Beverly, Of Fauquier, has been named
for the nomination, but, while thls gentle
man is undoubtedly an admirable farmer
and capital financier so far rs the manage
mcnt OF his own estates is concerned, 1t
seems to the writer that Virginia's Cover
nor should unite with practical ability a cul-
tiyated intellect, and We have never heard
Mr.. Beverly spoken Of as an intellectual
man. . !.
We do not, however, wish to be deemed
bitter against the Fauquier candidate, and
he may possess all the splendid talents
claimed for him by his adherents.
Your correspondent had the pleasure OF
attending this week meeting Of several
days at the Reformed Episcopal church in
TINS county, OF which the Rev. James A.
Latane is rector.
The services were exceedingly interest
ing 'nd productive OF good results. The
four sermons preached by the pastor were
admirable pieces of composition and finely
delivered.
1t gives the writer the greatest pleasure
to mention the noble Christian spirit mani
tested by the distinguished minister named
above. During the last year or two MIR.
Latane bias received calls TO high and lucra-
tive positions outside OF Virginia ;sbut with
Il marked devotion to duty that does him
honor he remains with his flock here, who
are as yet very limited In humber and una-
bic .pecuniariiy TO reward; him us his high
merits deserve ys. !, s5#, !, 80. .

Campbell man, who has leased all the lands
in that vicinity, for a long term OF years,and
