In addition to the ruddy, fat coachmen, th" Hostlers, Regen, y huck-s and pretty barmaids -trawl, by M . Thom? son, we have a long series of sn-ulies of English inns, manor houses, college halls, churches, aud similar suhjeets by Mr. Railton. If Mr. Thom? son is to be tuleen as typically It-jHsls, Mr. Kail ton may be accepted as an c\_iuple of foreign influence upon English stock. The inrluenre in this case seems to be that of France, or more particularly of the. Ernnco-S|?nish illustrative, art of which Vierge has been held up os the chief prophet. Among our own artists Mr. Pennel might bc taken to show rbis influenr.??, and certain re? semblance*: may be traced in Mr. lui ikon's manner of aimiug at cxpres.-ion in the language of sug? gestion, or Uiore definitely drawing with the broken line, and leaving broad planes of white, and black, with lightly-sketched outlines to take the pince of details, Hie results may sometimes lack the color and vivacity characteristic of this school, but the work lg usually admirable, and as a whole certainly satisfactory. This charming book incline*, ns to join Mr. Ruskin in reviling railways. As one old coach? man staid, more moved by pi.tctieu'. than fwst.hetic considerations, " You got upset in a coach or chaise, and there you wBM. You get upset in a railway and where are you?" Alas! "Them wa- 'apps/ days for old Hengland, but, coaches is done forever, and them as 'ave- seen coachet 'ave seen something worth remembering."' Nco pnbI;catioiu. -rjIFT BOOKS WORTE HAVING. MOTHER HOMF.

The legitimate bosinesa of the Stock Exehiinge ts tu finnish a market lor tli" Interchange of in t-estments. Bo the speculation actiYe or dull, there ta11 the time is a changing of investments in progress. The origin ?f ;>" tho raids on iiorl. Island was thc ?ils of a hlock of stock that had been neld I long t;__e. The slock thus sol,! u.i> ibao-bed and taken core of within a range of 2 r*- cent. It was a cha?ge in -.vestment, and 11 an ordinary market subject to natural causes would have uttia. ted m, attention. Hut the .stuck liii-'ket fur a long time has been the football of wreckers, and the. ordinary sale if 1 lie Btoek referred to was made a levrr against he whole market. Every speculat.*. " bul!'' vho has engaged in helping to depcess the price if l.o-k Island for tho 'inn- being has expended 12 un hi> ?' lons.'' to make 51 out of thf decline n Kock bland, The subsequent raids made on he stock have lie eu for the purpose of depressing be whole market. They undoubtedly, together 1.1th the newspaper ucl given, have brought to uurket some further amount of "long'1 6tock. ititi, il.,- fuel remains timi thc depre-sion baa cue Irum a pressure of ' short" sales. The st. ck o?day was in borrowing demand, till a late miir. "Hat." From 1"? down to 95 B market ms been lound, not only lor the " Iun^;'' s?iek old, bul al.so ior thousands of shares ot '"short*' tock yel to be delivered or settled for. To-day's market opened Hat, with de-lines of --ai-'j per cent from last evening's figures. .oniii,n, apparently, was an -arly seller and later 'uiver at nigher prices. So much for the London illiien,c The market ruled extremely dull, bul arly developed a resistance that tin-- time, unlike I.,inlay's market, did Dot proceed fruin a covering t * shorts." The * bear* took iiu-ar inninp in he Brat fifteen minutes, made the low prices, and raited results. The nsult was a slow and steady ardening of values on a moderate demand, io hat prices generally reached to snd alni*,' Mon ay's beal fi uro. with total tranaactions in only ',',.:;7 .hares, against -21,800 shares on M.'n ay. To-day's b st prices were not made by shart' covering aa they were on Monday. i is difficult to locate the buying thai did ft. ufricien1 thal .t waa done without a "short*' quidntion, and with dulness tbe accompanying uture. Thc morning's loan market reflected ttl,- (-henge in the speculative situation; f. ,v orrowed stocks were returned, and the new de? land for all the favorites was gund.
