Public attention is naturally directed to the continent of India, in these times of speculative enterprise, as a new and unexplored field for the investment of capital, from the conviction that the yet unde veloped resources of its wealth, its industry, and its productive power, will richly and amply remunerate the speculator. _ _ The'rnillions who people that vast and fertile region of the globe, only require the impulse of enterprise to cal/ ftertia thus almost _bound less riches that immediately surround them; and were they possessed of that great artery of civilisation —railroads —the current of their political and industrial strength would instantly become enlarged, not only hi volume, but hi richness also. If we glance at the continent of India, 'we find our power mainly toncentrated on three points on the coast—Calcutta, Madras, and ;3ombay, which form an irregular triangle, the base of which may be termed Madras and Calcutta, and the apex Bombay; and the :treat bulk of the wealth and physical power of India is inclosed within that figure; therefore, it becomes a inciter of the primest im portance to have the intersecting lines of our empire as perfect as nossible, so that our power may be felt at every point, and our in fluence extended to every part. From the want of this concentrative power, India has become almost a burden to the mother country, barely paying its executive administration hi lieu of being a lucrative possession - a wealth-yielding appendage. To obviate this great and glaring defect in our Anglo-Indian em pire, it is only necessary to extend to her the same means of com munication that we possess at home ; to bring, in short, the great centres of her internal power nearer to each other ; and, Instead of depending upon her rivers as lines of traffic and intercourse, she ought to have a well-arranged network of railway extending over her surface; then she would increase in power, and augment in riches. The Direct Bombay and Madras Railway is projected to carry out, In part, this noble scheme ; and a single glance at the map must convince the most cautious calculator that the project is well founded, and the line of route happily chosen to effect its purpose; as it will intersect the most wealthy and industrious provinces of the continent of India, the Carnatic, and the Mysore, which abound in natural nroductions, in manufacturing industry, and in agricnitural wealth. The two great Presidencies s , f Madras and Bombay will be brought within a few hours' journey of each other, and not months, as here tofore ; and, in lieu of vessels making a long and dangerous voyage of some 5,400 miles half round the entire peninsula of India, their )stly cargoes may be easily conveyed to Bombay for shipment, in a less number of hours than the voyage occupies days; thus avoiding all risks of damage, peculation, wear, and tear, Sre., which in general characterise these voyages. The saving of insurance will also be immense—a matter of first-rate importance. In a political and military point of view, the line must be of almost incalculable importance, as it will intersect the great depots of the East India Company, and afford at al times a ready and prompt conveyance for troops, baggage, stores, artillery, and that cumbrous materiel which invariably attend their march ; and, above all, it will prove of the utmost utility to the Indian Government, in the distri bution of their forces among the various military posts of the three Presidencies, and for their rapid concentration on any required point, the watt of which was so distinctly shown in the late calamitous events on the Sutlej, and the consequent fearful sacrifice of life. The district traversed by the Direct Bombay and Madras Railway contains upwards of 30,000,000 of inhabitants ; and the wants and industry of this large body already yield a considerable tonnage, al tough in a comparative state of barbarous communication. In the report of the Bombay Chamber of Commerce, we find that the traffic to and from that City amounts to 187,343 tons annually, con sisting chiefly of cotton and salt. These two items form merely a fraction of the requirements of the Indians. Bombay is unapproach able except by a dangerous and expensive sea-board, and a cheap and safe communication can alone render available her internal resources. Cotton has now to be transported 500 miles to the coast, to reach Bombay for shipment. A railway would naturally obviate so cir cuitous and expensive a route. Some idea may be formed of the de struction and delay occasioned by these journeys, when we state that the cotton is carried on the backs of oxen, at the rate of 10 miles per day, which enormously augments Its shipment price. The present cost of conveyance from Nagpore to the port of shipment is from 141. to 2'4. a ton, and the charge by rail of 2cl a ton per mile would amount to 41. 3s. 44., a considerable difference. The same facts pre vail in regard to silk and other commodities, which are of the first importance to our manufacturing interests. This line will also bring nearer to us the fine island of Ceylon, with all its rich productions, commencing as it will at Madras, and taking in its course Arcot, Vellore, Banglore, Oscotta, Bangalore, Sera, Dodairee, Hurrioor, Ghittledroog, Myacunda, Anagee, Hurryhur, Shahnoor, Hullyhall, Hoobly, Dat - war, Taioor, Gohauk, Rybaugh, Meeruj, Kola poor. Satara, Poona, Poortah, Tulligaon, Singhur, Callianee, Basseen, Salsette, and Bombay ; thus absorbing the interests and traffic of up wards of 30 first-rate cities, and from 400 to 500 towns in the most densely populated part of India, facilitating the conveyance of cotton, coffee, tobaCco, opium, sugar, silk, ser•.na, gum, cassia, dye-woods, bides, furs, lac, betel nut, saltpetre, spices, fire-wood, charcoal, coal, corn, and various kinds of grain, indigo, &c., and the imports of treasure, manufactured and other goods, salt, ice, &c. The passenger traffic alone, according to reasonable and careful calculation, will yield an ample per centage on the capital raised ; and the immense tonnage of merchandise and raw produce must insure to the shareholders a profit beyond even the first-rate lines of England. _ - 1 7 1ae - iiiemeters of the present scheme have received intelligence ie from their agents that the line presents RO engineering d and that the cost of construction must be moderate, labour being plentiful, and the purchase of land comparatively trifling, and wood, coal, and iron abounding in the i mmediate neighbourhood of the vvhele line. The management of the Company will be vested in a Board of Di rectors in London, in connexion with an influential branch both in Bombay and Madras. Care will be taken, in the ac t c o n stitutin g the Company, that the responsibility of the Shareholders shall be limited to the amount of their subscriptions, and four per cent. interest will be paid upon the capital advanced up to the time of construction. The Directors also beg to call especial attention to the principle by which allottees in this Company are protected fiom an objectionable responsibility, by the l of t ai o lo p t a m y en the t de posits A reserve of 40,0 00 sh ares will be made for India, which the con dition that their app lication for shares will not be considered bindingreuqpuotnedthaetnti,h esltiiomuled specified they aft teiti wthaerdir decline letters i pro jectors have much pleasu re in stating will scarcely suffice for the demand already made.

Bermuda is always approached with more safety from the southward; and in running for it at night, or in thick weather, care should be taken not to get to the northward 0f32 deg; e Mir': lat. bettrre seeing the light of the land. In coming from the S.E., the light aliould not be brought to the southward of W. by S., or approached nearer than six or seven miles during the night; coming from the westward it should not be approached nearer than ten or twelve miles, until it bears to the northward of N.E. by E. With the light between N.E. and W. the coast is free from danger, and may be safely approached within three miles. Any vessel getting sight of the light from the northward had better haul off immediately, as the reefs extend all round from the S.W. to the N. and N.E. from fifteen to sixteen miles. The light will show a bright flash, continuing for six or eight seconds, and repeated once a minute, between the flashes. The light will be seen about ten miles distant.

Extract of a letter received at Lloyd's from their agent at St. Übes, dated June 6, 1846 : " I have to report that the rest of the salt appointed to the loading of foreign vessels has just been distributed to those now here. The large number that have unexpectedly crowded to this port, of which there is no example, have totally ex hausted the stock appropriated to them; the Salt Board has, however, made inquiry to ascertain the exact quantity that exists in the pans, and there is every probability that they may have to spare to foreign ships from 12,000 to 14,000 tons; but if they continue to come in crowds, this quantity cannot last until the new batch is ready, which is seldom tit for shipment before the middle or end of July. The price fixed and agreed by the owners of the pans, and the mer chants, many years since, still continues us altered at 1 dol. 500 f. my., weighing about 14 cwt." The agent to Lloyd's at Gibraltar, under date the 4th June inst., refers to the prompt assistance rendered to him by the Commanders and officers of her Majesty's fleet in the Mediterranean at all times when their aid has been re quested, in cases of British vessels being in distress in those waters. NOTICE TO MARINERS. BANKS' STRAITS. The following has been posted at Lloyd's : Post-office, Hobart-town, Nov. 26, 1845. A light is now, and will continue burning, from sunset to sunrise, on Swan Island (Banks' Straits), 104 feet above high-water mark. The supporting column is 74 feet 6 inches in height, the upper part coloured red, the lower part white. Its diameter is 24 feet 6 inches at the base, and 17 feet 6 inches at the summit. The lantern is 10 feet high, having a revolving light, which shows a bright flash of 2i seconds' continuance at intervals of a minute. It has been seen on either side from a distance of 25 miles. The following magnetic bearings were taken from the Light :—Peak of Cape Barren, N. 18 deg. 47 min. E. ; Look out Rock (Clarke's Island), N. 19 deg. 45 min. W. ; Reef, N. Westward of Swan Island, N. 46 deg. W.; Black Reef, S. 52 deg. E. It is also expected that the light now preparing on Goose Island will be ready for exhibiting on the Ist of February, 1846. Goose Island is the Western of the Chappell Islands. The column, which stands on the southern point of the island is in every respect similar to that which has been erected on Swan Island. The light will be a fixed light. The following magnetic beatings were taken from the Light-house, south-west extreme of Hammock, or Prime Seal Island :—N. 23 deg. W.; Reef off ditto, N. 20 deg.

The continued delay in the pass ing of the Corn Bill, and the near approach of Midsummer, when business is partially suspended for the purpose of stock-taking, both tend to limit business ; and transactions, whether in goods or yarn, have been only to a moderate ex tent. Prices, however, are generally firm. ROCHDALE, MONDAY, JUNE 15. We have had a very quiet market to-day, and but few pieces have been sold. In the vb 00l market there has been very little doing, with no change in prices. HUDDERSFIELD, TUESDAY, JUNE 16.—We have had a fair market to-day for the season, and there has 13 ,- en an abundant show of goods. Amongst the manufacturers of the district about Skelmanthorpo and Clayton West, there is considerable activity to complete American and other foreign orders. _ _ _ _ LEEDS, TUESDAY, JUNE 16.—Our this day's market pre sented no new features, and no alteration either for better of worse has taken place.

In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our own organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely. By such knowledge, and which is herein faithfully imparted, health will be found to be in our own keeping, and happiness within the attainment of all ; by the availment hereof in fulfilling our duty to ourselves, we secure the like advantages on our offspring to follow, and finally by the cultivation of our faculties, which is in consistent with degenerate health, the mind as well as the body may be exalted to the summit of perfection, as best becomes the highest of God's creations.

S N, JUNE 18, 1846. STEAM COMMUNICATION WITH PORT JACKSON via SINGAPORE. A letter on this subject has been recently addressed to Mr. Secretary Gladstone by Lieutenant Waghorn, R.N , detailing the plan proposed for establishing regu lar steam communication between Singapore and Port Jackson, and showing the advantages which must accrue, both to the colonies and to the mother country from its establishment. Befure, however, detailing his own plan Lieutenant Waghorn thus states his objections to a plan formerly proposed for establishing a route to Australia via Panama. " The possession of the Isthmus of Panama, for pur poses of transit, has, it is well known, b9en desired, with much eagerness, by successive French Administrations, almost from the day that the colonial and Indian acqui sitions of England began to be a source of jealousy to that country and to Spain. Whatever might be the actual value to France of a passage through the Isthmus, its agitation, at all events, served her views by en couraging the idea of that being the only route; because, by so doing, it helped to divert attention from the real route to be sought ; namely, one promoting a more inti mate connexion with the Eastern or Chinese Archi pelago—whose islands are far too numerous to mention, indeed so numerous, that over many of them the British flag has never yet waved. " About seven years ago, the French engineers who then surveyed Panama, estimated the expense of cutting a ship canal through that mountainous region, at one hundred and fifty millions of francs, or six millions sterling—an outlay altogether and at once decisive against any plan involving it. But, independent of this insurmountable pecuniary objection, the first and only stopping place between Panama and Port Jackson is dis tant no less than 3,668 miles from the former, being one of the Marquesa Islands, where the French appear to be carrying on a second Otaheiteaffair ; and where, if the most recent and best-informed writers' are to be cre dited, the maintenance of a proper station would be all but imenssible ; in so barbarous a state are the natives, 'ilia - so utterly incapable of being taught acquiremenis that would be useful, or the abandonment of habits that would be destructive to a depot of Europeans. Objec tions to the Panama route might be multiplied; but his superfluous to add another. Everything is against it ; nothing is in its favour ; and it is to be hoped we have heard the last of any such wild and insane crotchet in connexion with England at all. Its fallacy and absurdity become transparent on a moment's examination; though it may look very well on the map, to those whose ac quaintance with the map is confined to the school-room, and who do not reflect that space is to be reckoned, not by rule and compass, but by the facilities or difficulties of getting over the distance." Having thus disposed of the Panama proposition, he proposes his own plan via Singapore, of which he gives the following tabular summary:— O • 8 . 3 0 . 2 •• 4, I 1 i r 4 IC' 5.., oi l 1:i , 0 Cn ° <4 a a et 74 0 - 0 0 0 ce 1 13, CO : ' 1 •^ 1 .E" 1 rs i ria 9:3 , 4 a. , b .4 a .L. 4 I 4" II 0 I co to q ,-• : o o ~....•-••, 1 S . at;ll4 • t: : g : !

Ca a : This plan he states has the unqualified approbation of Commander Stckes, R.N., who was for seven years cm• ployed in surveying the coast of New Holland, and of whom Lieutenant Waghorn speaks in the following laudatory terms:— " The of knowledge displayed in the published record of his explorations of Torres Straits and the adjoining coasts, within 500 miles in every direction, clearly point him out as the representative of Government in the organisation of the scheme suggested, in connexion with the Peninsular and Orietnal Com pany, for running steamers from Singapore to Sidney. None so fitting as he to be your agent; and, through you, the agent of the mother country, and of the great colony of Australia, with that Company, if they will take the contract, on fair and reasonable terms, for, say three or five years, after which retrenchment might, perhaps ; be judicially introduced." • . - Lieutenant W agho - rn thus proceeds:— " I am perfectly confident that, with a grant from the Crown, a monthly steam communication between Sydney and Singapore, and vice versa, may be entered upon by a private company of merchants, which would be forth coming in the City of London in two or three months. " And now as to the chief end and aim of this address —the amount of the grant. What is it? you will ask. It is 100,0001. per annum; and for that sum a larger equivalent is obtainable, all things considered, than the history of Government bargains with private Companies has yet afforded." Surely the Government will not hesitate to make so small a grant for such an important object. Once, by establishing steam communication, diminish the distance between England and Australia one-half; and " emigration would flow to Australia, where soil, and climate, and produce, and the currents of traffic, and, in short, every circumstance an intending emigrant should take into account, invite him to settle, and where nothing repels him but the distance and the evils this distance alone occasions. " The link that connects Australia with England by steam will strengthen the relationship between both, in a political as well as a social sense. The internal peace and quiet of such a colony may remain for ever undis turbed, if looked after with a maternal eye at home. No contaminating influences externally can ever operate to the prejudice of England's influence. Australia is es sentially English, and will ever remain so • and it will do so with mutual credit and profit to England and itself, in proportion as it participates in the onward progress of England's glory and prosperity, by being brought within its sphere by means of steam." The following are additional benefits which would accrue from the establishment of a regular line of steamers between Singapore and Port Jackson : " 1. By establishing steam navigation between Singa pore and Sydney, you at once create in that part of the world a steam navy capable of mounting guns of any calibre when wanted against an enemy, or of transport ing troops to Singapore, and to Hong Kong, China, or Calcutta, as might be needed. " 2. The necessity for fortifications in the South Pa cific and th e I n di an O cean wou ld be done away with by these steamers, which would be fortifications in them selves, carrying within them the means of destroying any enemy they might meet with. " 3. The navigation of Torres Straits and New Zealand generally is not sufficiently known. Steamers plying between Singapore and Port Jackson will easily make the passage. The only diverging difference in the navi gation of these Straits and coast is 160 miles more if you go outside the Barrier Reefs ; for it may sometimes happen that if you went inside you would have to anchor at night, and this must continue to be the case until lighthouses are established on the points, capes, and pro montories indicated on the accompanying map." On this subject of lighthouses, Lieutenant Waghorn strongly recommends the erection on the shores of Torres Straits and on th e coast o f New Holland of Mr. Bush's patent cast ir on li g h t h ouses, diagrams of which are g iven in the pamphlet, as also a chart of the proposed route. We hope that M r. S ecretary Gladstone will direct his best attention to this subject, and that a liberal grant for the establishment of steam communication between gapore and Port Jackson will be pro Pose cl inetit for we Govern ment during the present session of F_aroita by Si n be ' tter sp are convinced the public money could plied than in securing this important obit and thus developing the vast resources of one of most impor tant of our colonial possessions.

PRICE SD. THE LATE MR. CANNING. The following letter has been addressed to the editor of the Times : attention of your readers tO the ci Sir,—lt may perhaps be of some interest rchmsta h t ee o reeeoafl the opposition w hich was raised by the " violence of the v youngate letter M embers e o l fa thelate L Lord E ldon, I p d a o r h t T according tt , ;ainst t he Adminis tration t o of Mr. Canning in 1827. On First the Lordl2th of o f the April Treasury, a shry, and Canning in consequence accepted th offi z2e of vacated his scat in the House of Commons. An ad journment of the House took place on the same day to the Ist of May, for the purpose of giving Mr. Canning time to fill up the subordinate posts in his Ministry. - On the ist of May Sir R. Peel explained the reasons which had induced him to secede from Mr. Canning, and in his exposition avowed that " he had no personal objections to his Right Hon. Friend," and that " he was not actuated by any feelings of rivalry towards him." He gave Mr. Canning credit " for being actuated by the utmost honesty, sincerity, and zeal, in his efforts to pro mote the success of the Catholic question ;" and ex pressed his deep regret that he must " separate from one with whom he had formerly acted with so much cordiality." In the course of the debate Mr. G. Dawson, the brother-in-law of Sir Robert Peel, and his Under- Secretary in the Home-office, indulged in the bitterest sarcasms against Mr. Canning, for having formed with some of the Whigs " the basest coalition that was erer formed." Though at that time a strenuous opponent of the Catholic claims himself, he observed that if Sir Francis Burdett and his Whig friends did not " insist that the Cabinet should propose the granting of the Catholic claims as a Government measure, they would be parties to one of the basest, one of the most unna tural, coalitions that this country had ever witnessed, and would exhibit the grossest abandonment of prin ciple." After showing that the Protestants of Ireland could have no confidence either in Mr. Canning, or in Lord Lyndhurst, his Lord Chancellor, he proceeded to contend, that " if the Roman Catholics of that country should be deluded by the prospect then held out to them by those in power, he should hold the Government and the Ministers of the Crown, and them alone, responsible for every calamity that might overtake that country and be thereby entailed upon this." For this ebullition Mr.Brough am administered a severe castigation to Mr. G. Dawson, and advised him to indulge in future, as he hitherto had done, "in silent votes" rather than "in petulant sneers." • The debate was closed by a speech from Mr. Canning, in which he admitted that during the adjournment of Parliament for the Ministerial negotiations he had kept up with Mr. Peel the most constant and confidential in tercourse, and had found in him throughout the same candour and sincerity, and the expression of the same just feelings and a uniform exhibition of the same high principle to which he had laid claim in the address which he had that night delivered. He also made use of the following language relative to Mr. Peel and his late colleagues in the Administration:— " Between my Right Hon. Friend and myself it is almost unnecessary for me to observe, that upon every subject, in every discussion I can call to mind, upon all great questions of foreign or domestic policy and legislation—this one un happy question of Catholic Emancipation excepted—there has been that sort of general agreement, that I do not be lieve there exists the individual with whom my opinions are in more complete accordance. • * * But as to others of my late colleagues, I am not prepared to express an opinion on the proceeding they have adopted, because of its motives I am not aware." On the 3d of May Mr. George Dawson renewed his attack on Mr. Canning; spoke of " the political farce which the Right Hon. Gentleman had been carrying on with wonderful success for the last five weeks ;" declared that " Mr. Canning and his new allies had equally lost sight of every principle which ought to have been sacred to them; and denounced the conduct of the Premier (Canning) as dictated by no other motive than the grati fication of his own personal ambition." He added, that Mr. Canning " had not been over scrupulous as to the means by which his ambitious course had been pursued." Mr. Brougham said that a more violent and unhesi tating and unscrupulous party could hardly have been gathered together, than that which had broken ground two evenings before. He charged Mr. Dawson with urging on the tried friends of the Catholic question to do that very act which every rational man must see would be fatal to the Catholic cause at that moment. He who accused Mr. Canning of betraying the Catholics was their ancient and avowed enemy. Such advice as Mr. Dawson gave to the Catholic was the thinnest disguise he had ever seen thrown by a virulent faction over its naked depravity. Mr. Peel then made a speech in defence of his own policy, in which he aga;n disclaimed all personal ani mosity to Mr. Canning. Sir Francis Burdett remarked, in reply to it, that it appeared to him that Mr. Peel was inoculated with the virulence of the same spirit. He spoke at considerable length in reprobation of the course pursued by Mr. Peel and his personal supporters. Mr. Canning, in reply to Mr. G. Dawson (and not, as Mr. Disraeli asserted in his speech of Monday night, to his Right Hon relative), observed, that " be rejoiced to find that the standard of opposition was at length raised. Such an act is to me worth a thousand professions of qualified neutrality. In whatever mind the feeling of hostility lurks, let it come boldly forth, end boldly will I meet it." Mr. George Dawson closed the debate by declaring that— " Hai he thought proper to go into all the details which had been elsewhere alluded to, he might have recollected some passages in the past life of Mr. Canning which would justify some suspicions of that Right lion. Gentleman as a political character—same suspicions touching the manner in which he had got his present office." He added, that " after what had passed he must observe, that if Mr. Canning looked back upon his experiences in past days, his reflections on what had taken place in those days would be of no gratifying d escripti on ." Mr . . William Peel, on the next day, spoke strongly against the new Administration, and Mr. Canning as the head of it : " The appointment of Mr. Canning as First Lord of the Treasury increased his apprehensions. lie did not know how the coalition was effected, but he thought there must have been a sacrifice on one side or the other." _ ___ Of the effect produced by these debates I will give the opinion of Lord Eldon, as stated in a letter quoted by Mr. Twiss, in his life of that Nobleman, vol. iii., p. 1 : " The violence of the young Members of the House of Commons who are attached to the late Government has done the ex-Ministers, as I feared it would, some damage. John Bull don't like to see anybody too hard pressed, and his pity sometimes leads him to inclination which his judg ment would not have approved, if commiseration had not been excited." Shortly after the recess of Parliament Mr. Canning died ; and the public impression at the time certainly was that his death was hastened by the personal attacks so incessantly made upon him by the near connexions of Sir Robert Peel—whether with his approval or not, others will decide. It is quite evident, from a letter of Lord Eldon, inserted in the 3d volume of his life by Mr. Twiss, that the family of Mr. Canning considered him hunted to death by his political enemies ; for in a letter addressed to Lady F. Bankes, on the 25th January, 1828, his Lordship writes thus : " Viscountess Canning has written a strong letter, as Lord Ashley tells me, to Iluskisson, strongly reproaching him for joining (I use Ashley's own expression) her husband's mur derers." The charge of being privy to these attacks has bees repeatedly preferred against Sir R. Peel ; but he has always most indignantly repelled them. In his speech on the second reading of the Catholic Emancipation Bill he used the following language in denial of it : " Allusions hare been mado to the memory of my Right Hon. Friend, now no more (Mr. Canning), which have been most painful to my feelings. An Hon. Baronet has spoken of the cruel manner in which my Right Hon. Friend was hunted down. Whether the Hon. Baronet was one of those who hunted him down, I know not ; but this I do know, that whoever did join in the inhuman cry which was raised against him, I was not one. I was on terms of the most friendly intimacy with my Right Hon. Friend down even to the day of his death ; and I say with as much sincerity of heart as man can speak, that I wish he was now alive to reap the harvest which he sowed, and to enjoy the triumph which his exertions gained." Having thus furnished the public with means of de ofm o ciding on the point recently raised in Parliament as to Sir R. Peel's connexion with the party who are c h arge d with this cruel treatment of Mr. make any comments, or draw any ow n from it,. but subscribe my se lfy t June 16. YOUR CONSTANT READER.

THE POTATO DISEASE.—A very important experi ment has just been completed by Mr. Selater of Summer lands. Last year he had a crop of ash-leaf kidneys much affected by the disease, and as they daily became worse, he caused all that were affected to be picked out and planted. This was in November, and though they have been three times cut down by the frost, still five-sixths of the sets prospered. A considerable, portion of the crop has been dug for sale, and in no instance is there the slightest appearance of disease in the new potatoes, which are excellent in quality. This, at least, proves that diseased sets will not necessarily propagate disease in the crop raised from them. It Is also a fact worth knowing in case of the re-appearance of the dieesse.— TAO Briton, Po] May tary. QHOWER BATHS with CURTAINS, 2s. ea c h. L.

A MOTHER DROWNED WHILST BATHING HER CHIL DREN IN THE WHARFE.—A distressing event happened on Thursday week, and one which excited more painful in terest in the town and neighbourhood where it occurred. than any that has taken place there for some years. On the evening just named, between six and seven o'clock, Mrs- Eliza Ackroyd, wife of Mr. William Ackroyd, painter, went with some others down to the river Whirfe, Otley, at the bottom of Mr. William Dawson's garden, for the purpose of bathing her own and some of her neighbours' children. She and a young woman pulled off their shoes and stock ings, and went a short distance into the water, and having bathed two of Mrs. Parkinson's children, she was attempt ing to dip an orphan girl, nine years old, of the name of Wilson, who was too strong for her, and they both fell head foremost into the river, which in that part is very deep. The shrieks of the women and children who were near arrested the attention of John Wilson, whitesinith, who had been bathing near there, and he rushed into the water up to the chin, eagerly attempting to lay hold of Mrs .Ackroyd ; but, being no swimmer, he wasobliged to give up the attempt of saving her. However, he fortunately caught the girl:by the hair of her head, by which means she was rescued from a watery grave. Mrs. Ackroyd appeared to struggle very much, and after floating several yards she sunk to the bot tom. Mr. William Dawson, hearing of the accident, ran immediately to the place, an d rushed into the river, but find ing that his clothes bore him down so as to prevent his swimming properly, be came out and undressed himself, and then went -in again, and swam in various direc tions, but could not discover her. At last he was directed to a place, where he saw her, and diving down, he attempted to raise ber up, but was unable. Two other men then went in to his assistance, and they all took hold of hands. He then made another effbrt, and caught hold of her dress,' 'and the three men pulled her out of the water_ on:to the batik. Mr. Spence and Mr. Shaw, surgeons, were in attendance. and bled her, and used ether means to restore animation, but without effect, for the spark of life- was quite extinct. This distressing event took place in the presence of her own three little children.—Leeds Intelligencer. COLLISION ON THE GRAND JUNCTION RAILWAY.—OR Sunday morning last, a collision took place on the Grand Junction Railway, about four miles beyond Crewe, which caused great consternation to a very long train of passengers, and resulted in a great many severe contusions and bruises; hat no life was lost, and we havo not heard of any fractures. It seems that the cheap excursion train, which "left Man chester for London on Saturday the 30th May, wise returning to Manchester on Sunday morning last, consisting of 39 first, second,. and third-class carriages, drawn by one engine. It was about six o'clock in the morning, the atmosphere very thick and misty, when the train came suddenly upon four or five stationary goods-trucks, some empty and some loaded, and by the collision with these trucks, the passengers were thrown violently against each other, or against the inside of the carriages; many receiving severe bruises on the head, face, shoulders, &c., and a number suffered from black eyes. One lady received a severe cut across the forehead. 'and was in a state of insensibility for some time. ThiS accident caused a detention of about an hour and a quarter, and then the train brought all the passengers forward to Manchester, the carriages not being much injured. As to the cause of the collision, it seems a goods' train from Birmingham, which had preceded the excursion train some time, had, by some accident, lost or left a part of its trucks on the line. The stoker of. that train states that the waggons must have become accidentally detached tilltio b ni e th b e ad tr p a r i o n os w e r d i s n ome motion. He did not discover the loss dis tance on his journey, and he then ran back in order to make train. He had got between the sta alyye a t beenthe time, mn c o i r n t o h r e s too near to stop in time.. Fort unatel y , owin g t o t h e mist tsiiognnaari., to tr t a ic n lt 3 s - c° an m d ili t g he passenger train, but lie latter was s e rious. It is urged that it' the stoker's statement be c a n t n n i s o e s q p o l e i e n r c e p , s t h o e f t ti r i a e i l e i ol % li a s s io g n oi w n o g ul B d l"l ; cor rect, it does not exculpate the parties having charge of th e goods' train, as it proves that it was running without the necessary side chains being used to connect the trucks that were found detached with each other and with other trucks in the train. ROBBERY AT CHATHAM BARRACKS.—At the. county h pearedthat a highlanders.s he erom was h t. re s . mag i s trate's office, Rochester, on Monday, Ellen - Sears and Ann Partis, two respectably-dressed young w omen, Were t c harged with stealing some articles of pl a t e b e l ong i ng to statement e Pt (.retain o o h f n Ca ß p ar ta n i: Bunts,of e it 7B a t p h turning"from mess, accompanied by another officer, about 10 o'clock on Tuesday evening, on their wa to his a saw the two prisoners sitti ng on one of the y h qu rters they terrace. They asked him for • enches on the or some wine, and the other officer having lett him, he told them to come up to his room and he would give th em some. Whilst they were there he told them there was some ale in which he in vited them to partake ef', the c upb oard , the corkscrew them they . would find the corkscrew in the sideboard, where the plate was kept. After they had partaken of strawberries, ale, and wine, they left his quarters; he had never spoken to them before. The next morning his servant, Alexander Laing, told him that a tablespoon and a desert fork were missing from the drawer in the sideboard to which the prisoners had been. Laing identified the prisoner s as the parties who were in . his master's quartersp e the night in question, and for whom he provided wine-g las ses . On Wenesday morning the_prisoners went tot li eshop . of Mr. Stigant, a pawnbroker, in Chatham, to whom Sears presented a t bl • a e-spoon, and aske d him if be would lend her ss. on it, saying it was her o wn, and that she was a housekeeper, living on the Brook. Hav i ng given her a duplicate, they left the shop. She pawned it in her own name. The next morning the prisoner Sears offered the fork to Mr. Weekes, pawnbroker, for 4a. In this instance, however, she was not quite eo fortunate; foi he, having been apprised of the questioned robbery, her as to whom it belonged ; she replied, of no consequence to him ; she then said it was given to her by a young woman at Brompton. Howes, the constable, was sent for, and she was then taken into custody, when sbe said it was taken from an officer's quarters in a " spree," and that the officer knew of it.
