to be new scenery . The earnest , easy , conversational manner of the lecturer , . who-. chats as freely from his little platform as across a table , is certainly a great contrast to the usual desk and water-bottle •' 'business . The third portion of the tour brings us to the village of Sinjplon , from which spot we proceed to the Gorge of Grondo , and then to the Pont de Crevola , from which we get the first glimpse of Italy . This view , and .. that of the Lago Maggiore , are two as beautiful pictures as Beverley ever painted .., But there is a bit of portraiture by Albert S mith , which would make the
third part worth staying out , were all else barren . The perfectly Sliaksperean sketch of the English engineer who , in the secret retirement of his engine-room , and the general conviction that Austria isn ' t England tells a story without a climax and beginning with " No , sir !

Corn" Market. Mark Lane, Friday, Decembe...
CORN" MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday , December 9 , 1853 . Local Trade . —The supplies this week of air Grain are smaller than for some tims past , and this , together with an increased demand for the Continent , causes great firmness in the Wheat trade . Barley meets a slow sale at rather lower rates . Oats dull without alteration . Fi-oating Trade . —The arrivals for the past week consist of 22 cargoes of Wheat and 1 of Maize . The cargoes mentioned in oars of last week are nearly all sold , or otherwise disposed of . ' The markets in the North of France have somewhat recovered ' ' their late dulness , and though the Belgian markets are not actually dearer , a better feeling- begins to prevail . At Marseilles i there has been but little alteration since our last . Arrivals continued large , but the demand from the ' interior was such as to prevent any further decline . The Italian markets remain unaltered . In England , at most of the country markets , prices were Is . to 2 s . lower ; but supplies from the farmers had not been so large as was expected . Prices in Ireland are influenced by the reports from England . The shipments of pojfcatoes continue to be very extensive , and we shah" not wonder if it be found , later in the season , that substitutes arc required to make up a deficiency caused hereby . From Scotland we hear that the Oat crop in many districts turns out worse than was expected .
