_Spy Wednesday._--I observed the other day, under the Spanish News in _The

Times_ of Wednesday, the 14th April, 1852, the following paragraph:

"It being _Spy Wednesday_, the Bourse remained closed."

Can any correspondent inform me the meaning of "Spy Wednesday," it being a

term I have never yet heard so applied?
