The Markets.
OATS. | The demand for oats in England was, at
last advices, fairly active, but without much |
|prospect of a rise in prices. Maize has | been falling in the British market for some time, and if it reaches a lower priee than at present, it will have a tendency to depre- ‘cate the oat market. The price obtainable \for oats on the 20th ult., for France, was 20s. 3d. per quarter of 304 lbs., including cost, freight and insurance.
POTATOES,
By reference to statistics pubiished Wed- nesday, it will be seen that a large quantity | of potatoes was exported from Queen’s and King’s Counties during the month of Octo- ber. The quantity was 111,222. bushels, valued at $44,489. From these figures the activity of the market in October may be ‘judged, and it may ke predicted that more activity will charaeterize the market of November. The potato market in Boston on the 29th ult., was steady. Receipts were equal to the de- mand and prices were as follows :—Aras- took Rese, 90 to 95 cents per bushel; M. ©. Rose, 85 to 90 cents; Northern Roze, 85 to 90; Jacksen’s, 85 cents ; Prolifics, 85 cents. From a Baltimore circular of the 29th inst., we quote :
Receipts of New York State per rail were very large the past week, and prices favored buyers slightly. Wequote for lets at depo 97 cts. to $1,05 per bus., covering Rose and other varities. The impression obtains among the trade that as the eeld weather appreaches higher values will be reached ; but in this there may be disappointment, as current prices are attracting attention from abroad, and ven- tures will doubtless be made from unexpected quarters in the hepe of realizing a good profit at lower prices than are now current.
FLOUR,
A reliable cireular of the 28th frem Gault, Ont., reports a dullness and in- activity in the flour market all the week, and prices have been nowinally unchanged; but the market has been very weak. In Montreal on the 3ist the market was quiet with an easy tendency. One hundred and twenty-five barrels of choice superior were sold there at $6.40, and superior was offered at $6.20. The following are the Montreal quotations :—

lots as a few weeks ago, but stocks of all kinds are light and the market sustains a firm tone. Receipts of mackerel at this port for the week foot up 9,955 bbls., in- cluding 1,845 from the Provinces, nearly all of which have been dis- posed of. The Shore fleet landed 14,000 barrels at outports here which is about 400 barrels more than last week, but many of the vessels have made their last trip, and the whole fleet will soon be hauled up for the winter. The catch is larger than fer several years, and the season for our shore fishermen has been more prosperous than the average. No stock of any censequence remains in first hands, and dealers are only moderately supplied. Threes are neurly all sold out, and what remains consists principally of 2's and 1's. Fair prices of Shore Mackerel are nemimally $6.50 for 3's, $8.50 for 2’s, and $17 for 1’s. Separate lots of 3’s not to be found under $8 per bbl. P. E. Island Mackerel are net se quick as previously, but the stoek is small and receivers are not anxious to sell at any lower prices than last week. The queta- tions for 3’a is $8, and 2’s at $10 and #11 per bbl, but forced sales would not realize more than inside figures. Codfish have been in fair demand, with sales of dry Bank at $4.25 to $4.50 for large, and $2.37 to $3.50 for medium; pickle cured Bank at $4.124 te $4.25 fer large and $3.374 for medium; and Bay trawl and Shore at $1.75 to $5.00 per quintal. We notice sales of 846 quintals Nova Scotia codfish at $4.50.

GiapsTone says: It has been no common half century in which 1 have had the honor and privilege to serve my country, for | believe that in its history there has been no period of time, extending to the same dura. tion, which has been marked by so many legislative labors, by so much—among, per- haps, assumptions that may not in all points be justified—of real and substantial progress in the greatness, happiness, and glory ef our common country.
Pror. Macoun has retarned to Ottawa from the North-West, where he has been engaged in exploring the district north of Fort Pelly as to the productions and adaptability of the soil for agricultur 1 purposes. He reports a flooding ef Lakes Manitoba and beac on but net of a permanent character. This he attributes to an unusual rainfall. He feund extensive deposits of salt in Winnipeg, and for at least 150 miles along the lakes in a north and south line, and on tributary streams. The salt fossils obtained in the rocks in the vicinity will be placed im ‘the geological museum. The country traversed was almost altogether a thick forest,and where not marshy the trees were of large size and much superior to any hitherto seen in the North West. The soil in every case was found to be rich, and ‘vegetation most luxuriant. |

A PRIVATE LETTER from a gentleman in Kingsten, King’s County, N. 8., says: It is slmost impossible to obtain barrels here of any kind at present; the orders for them being se extensive. There are so many speculators from the United States buying potatees, that the market is very brisk, $1.75 and even as high as $2 being paid. The best winter apples are worth $3 a barrel,
A St. Petersburg despatch says it has been decided to abolish the diplomatic mis- siens at Listen, Dresden, Weimar, Stutt- gart, Carlsruhe, and Munich, and to in- crease the consular establishments in the Asiatic states adjoining Russian, Central Asian, and the trans Caucasian possessions. It is expected that teu thousand pounds annually will thus be raised,
The annual review of the cotton trade just issued shows ihe year has been fairly satisfactory to English spinners. The Rus- sian spinners have been far more prosperous than any other, while France is rapidly re- covering frem successive seasons of depres- sion. The prospects of the new season are thought to justify the anticipation of a con- tinuance ef a healthy flow of business.
The French—30,000 strong—are advanc- ing on Kairwan the holy city of Tunis. Of course they will capture it, though possibly not without a struggle. The city ef Kair- wan is to the Mahommedans of the West what Mecca is to the Mahommedans of the East, and it is said that Mahommed gave a cemmand to ths effect that if ever Mecca should fall into the hands of the Infideis, Kairwan sheuld be henceforth the centre of the Mahomimedan world. It is prin- cipally famous as contsining the tomb of Sidi-el-Waib, the prophet’s barber. Its chiof mosque is said to be supported by 500 columns, and is built of stones, still bearing Roman inscriptions taken from the site of Vicus Augusti ow which the city stands.
The reception of King Humbert and Queen Margaret in Vienna has been enthusiastic, and itis within the beunds of reason to take it for granted that the visit hss political value. Nor is this diminished by the fact that the Habsburg empire is at present without a for- eign minister, Even Andrassy weuld prob- ably admit that the Emperor Francis Joseph
and dealers are not so eager io buy largé)is virtually his own foreign minister, and not
a poor one. The late Baron Haymeric, justly esteemed, was little more than his faithful aod capable lieutenant. The visit is a rough blow en the remantie and absurd escapades of the Italia irredenta, who cesly asked that Trent, Triest and other places be surren- dered to Italy, because the people involved epeak an Italian dialect. The v.sit will hardly please the French. But they have snubbed Italy more than once, and have no real grievances. Feeding Horses.
The horse has the smallest stomach in proportion to his size of any animal, Fifteen or ten quarts is its utmost capa- city. This space is completely filled by four quarts of oats and the saliva that goes into the stomach with them. Horses are generally overfed. anu uot fed often enough. For a horse with moderate work, six or eight quarts of bruised oats and 10 pounds of fine hay a day is sufli- cieut. This should be fed in at least three meals, and is better if fed in four.
A horse’s digestion is very rapid, and therefore he gets hungry sooner than a man. When he is hungry he is ineffec- tive, aud wears out very rapidly, Water fills the stomach, lowers out the temper- ature, and dilutes the gastric juce; therefore a horse should not drink im- mediately before eating. Neither should he bs watered immediately after eat~ ing, beeauss he will drink too mach and forca some of the contents of the stomach into the large intestines, which will cause scouring. Scouring is caused by too rapid eating. which can be pre- vented by putting half a dozen pebbles half the size of the fist into the manger with the oats. Give only a moderate drink of water to a horse. A large drink of cold water before being driven will have a very quieting effect on a nervous horse. A race horse always runs on an empty stomach. Digestion progresses moderately during exercise, if the exercise is not so violent as to ex- haust the powers of the horse.
I consider bruised oats worth twenty per cent more than whole. They are more completely digested. I prefer oats to any other grain for horses. Cracked corsa is very good under some circum- stances, but wouldn’t use meal or shorts. The disease called big bead is caused by feeding corn. When a horse comes in hot I would give him a moderate feed immediately. If the horse is to tired to eat, would take his feed away. A heated horse is a reason against watering, and for feeding, for the system is then just in the condition to begin digestion, A horse will not founder if fed moderately when hot. I prefer dry feed unless a horse has some disease of the threat or luzsgs. Do not consider it worth while to cut hay. I always feed hay from the floor ;1hen the horses do not get particles in their eyes.
