COCOA is a NUT , which , besides farinaceotis substance , contains a bland oil , less liable than any other oil to rancidity . Possessing these two nutritive substances , Cocoa is a most valuable article of diet , moro particularly when , by mechanical or other means , the farinaceous substance is so perfectly incorporated with tha oily , that the one will prevent the other from separating . Such a union is presented in the Cocoa prepared by JAMES EPPS . The delightful flavour , in pa-rt dependent upon the oil , is retained , and the whole preparation is one suited to the most delicate stomach . Is . 6 d . per lb .

"I feel , however , some diffidence in venturing to fulfil your request by giving you my opinion of tho quality of tlio oil of wluoli you gave mo a sample ; because I know that no one can be bettor , and few so well , acquainted with the physical and chemical properties of this medicine as yourself , whom I regard as tho highest authority on tho subject .

Tho oil which you gave mo waa of tho very finest quality , whether considered with reference to its colour , flavour , or chemical properties ; and I am satisfied that for medicinal purposes no finer oil can bo procured .

MADEMOISELLE CLAUSS'S CONCERT . On Saturday last , this darling of the musical and the fashionable public , tave her annual concert . The large room in King- street was filled to overowing by a brilliant throng ; and the quality of the entertainment prepared for them , was calculated to deepen the enthusiasm of the most enthusiastic among her admirers . The most important compositions performed were Mendelssohn ' s Quartett in B minor ; in which Mademoiselle Clauss played the pianoforte , and Ernst , Piatti , and Hill , the stringed instruments ; and Beethoven ' s pianoforte Sonata in B flat . This latter chefcTceuvre is calculated to exhibit the perfection of Mademoiselle Clauss ' s style of playing ; indeed , it cannot be well played by pianistes whose method of execution and musical organisation are not , in some measure , akin to hers .
perfectly at ease throughout the composition , giving the most trying passages with no more apparent effort than the easier ones , and calling forth the whispered words " beautiful ! " " wonderful ! " from the entranced or excited listener . The only composition she played which we heartily wished out of the programme , ( because , though very wonderful , it is not at all beautiful ) , was Liszt ' s difficult fantasia from the finale in Lucia . We can only suppose that it was performed " by particular desire " of some injudicious admirer who thinks that genius like Clauss ' s cannot make too much noise in the -world . For our own part , we would almost as soon hear her play a Persian solo on the Shah ' s biggest gong , as desecrate her high office by playing so poor and pretentious a thing as that insane fantasiawhich Liszt could only have written to " split the ears of the groundlings . "
With the exception of Halle , we question whether any other public performer could have gratified us in the Adagio movement and final Rondo of this Sonata half as much as Mademoiselle Clauss did on Saturday . We never heard her play with more exquisite feeling , or with more delicate finish of touch . The very keys seemed to forget that they were -wood and bone , " the work of men ' s hands , " and spoke out beneath her fingers as if each had received a living soul from her touch . In Mendelssohn ' s Quartett her excellence was of another kind . Here the rapidity , vivacity , and fantastic delicacy of execution required by the composer baffle most performers—at least , before a public audience ; but this gifted artist was
Chopin ' s Nocturne was as sweet , and quaint , and fantastic , in her hands , as I in his own ( alas ! that they will draw music no more from earthly instrument !)—As a striking contrast to all these other striking contrasts , Mademoiselle played a suite de pieces of Handel ' s in a style to satisfy the most rigorous Handelian of the Georgian sera . To hear that grand old monotonous rhythm springing up beneath those delicate fingers , was like seeing Uaa stroking the lion ' s mane . The vocal performers at this concert were few and well chosen . Miss L ., Pyne , Madame Amedei , and M . Jules Lefort , are each good , as all the world knows , and they sang their best on this occasion .

MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE Friday Evening , June 30 , 1854 . CoKSOtS have osculated about 1 per cent . —between 935 94 J —during the week , but there has been little business , speculative or real . Railway shares , particularly the heavy shares , have been , greatly in demand ; and a report industriously circulated that London and North-Westorn will pay a dividend of 5 } per cent , has brought in many buyers . Looking at the 'weekly traffic list and the expenditure , we cannot see that they will have 5 £ per cent , to divide—if even 5 . Crystal Palace shares have been flat all the week , and we question much if we shall see any riso in them . Foreign shares in railways remain quiet and at excellent prices . Some activity has beea evinced in Antwerp and Rotterdam , tho line opens for about 30 miles to-morrow , July 1 ; tho shares at present
see them at SI . per share premium . Mines are flat , and but little doing ; United Mexican have ben a i per share better , and Imperial Brazil havo been very muoh better , but have again receded . Peninsulas , awaiting advices from Captain . John Hichens , continue firm . Obcrnhoffs are singularly unsaleable , but there is a reason for this ; eventually they may be worth par . Pontgibeauds have published excellent accounts of this prospect , but their price doe 3 not much improve . Tho markets are a little flatter this afternoon . Consols opened at 91 S 4 | for tho oponiug ex div ., and closed at 93194 . Russian Fives 99 .
