MOSES' prime dress for son or sire, Is everything that we require. In MOSES' Clothes we may admire, All that a person can desire. In vain does rivalry aspire To raise the summer garments higher, In estimation with the bur er. .All competition must retire, Nor ever dare to be a vier With Messrs. MOSES, near the spire. No 2.—HATS, dr.e. The famous Hats and Caps displayed At Messrs. MOSES' house of trade, Are really elegantly mode. Many who near the shop have strayed, Admiring on the spot have stayed, The Hats of MOSES, when surveyed, Cast every other in the shade. Their shape is good, their nap well laid, From top of crown to edging braid, And when you view the prices paid, You'll never feel the least afraid, To lend E. M. and SON your aid. No. 3.—ROOTS AND SHOES. It is a fact which none deny— A fact on which you may rely— That MOSES' Boot and Shoe supply Stands foremost in the public eye. No matter how you test and try, You'll find these Boots and Shoes defy Whatever you may judge them by. A pair I lately bought; and I, Am very glad I went to buy, For not a fault can I descry ; They suit alike both wet and dry, And raise the Mart of MOSES high. No. 4. - HOSIERY, SHAWLS, &c. The Shawl and Hosiery Depot, Whose numbers you will find below, By MOSES is conducted so, That thousands are induced to go, Their lib'ral favours to bestow. j. t.i, From what I've prov'd myself I know •i; That, let you wander to and fro, You'll never meet with such a show, I therefore trust you'll not be slow In buying goods for prices low ; For much to MOSES do you owe As instanced at their famed depot. - LIST OF PRICES. =AD!

M One half the world are desolately single, and the other apposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a tense et right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em .itter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea 3f caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un varnprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, Ind broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness tnd social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set tlement. Honour andjusticedemand that health shouldform an item In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er teglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if these surmises concern you, procure Dr. CULVERWELL'S little MEMOIRS "On Single and Married Life, " pub. in 2 vols., Is. fl.ch (by cost, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let no imaginatively refined, or prudish feeling deter you, by their titles, nor be hindered misinterpretatior. of their supposed contents, from obtaining there. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but far the closet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom trey are offered as antagonistic to the empyrical trash put forth on the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or ogether, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other ittle publications claim your attention (same price ls. each, by post ls. Gd.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and kvoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volume, nor are they the mere ephemeral scribblinge of the hour, but the study of the author's life whl owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob servanc3 of the maxims he would inculcate—to do unto others as he would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always n the " sunny side of the way."

Barley but little on offer, and late rates supported. Beans, peas, and oats, short supply, and fully support the prices of last week. LIVERPOOL, MAY 11.—At this day's market these was a thin attendance of the town and country trade, and a limited business was done in wheat at about Tuesday's prices. Oats and oatmeal were not much inquired for, but an advance of id per 401bs was demanded for the former article. Barley, beans, and peas moved off slowly at late rates. Barrel flour was in brisk request, and towards the close of the market was gene rally held at 23s per barrel. Indian corn met with a slow sale, and a reduction of 6d to Is per quarter was submitted to in the sales made. Prime yellow Indian meal could hare been bought at 15s 6d per barrel. EXETER, FRIDAY.—CattIe—The market was again heavily supplied with all descriptions of stock, rather an unusual oc currence on the market- day immediately preceding a fair. The best fat beef, in a few instances, was worth 8s 6d per score, but a large proportion sold at 7s 6d to Bs, and some of ordi nary quality, at 7s. Cows and calves were a complete drug, and although in one instance 141 was obtained, the best articles generally could be bought at 101 to 121 each, and some were sold under 71. Very good barreners fetched 5s per score, but articles of inferior quality sold at 4s 6d. Yearlings were offered at 41 to 4155, and two and three year old steers at 6/ to 81 each. The supply of butcher's calves was very large, and sold at 44d to bid per lb. There was also a large supply of sheep, the large fat sheep being nearly unsaleable; in one in stance a lot of naked fat wethers and ewes, estimated at 241 b the quarter, was offered for 34s 6d, a little more than 44d per lb, but that price was refused. Wethers in their wool, were worth bid per lb, and ewes ditto, 4id to sd. Store hogs sold at 20s to 28s each, and couples 32s to 425. Lamb 7d per lb. A moderate supply of store pigs. Pork Carcases—The supply was, larger than that of last week, by about '2O pigs.

ST. PETERSBURGH, APRIL 27.—Messrs. Brandt and Co.'s circular states that the weather continues to be very mild, and the ice on the Neva is expected to break up very shortly, but it may be a long time yet before the shipping season opens at Cronstadt. The following transactions took place during the last week in exports :—Tallow—The continued flat advice. from England as well as the reports of a large supply this year of nearly or perhaps more than 150,000 casks, have affected our prices very much, and obliged our Russian dealers to give way considerably, in consequence of which much business was done this week, and 2,50 u casks were sold altogether (per August, at 112 roubles, with all money down for first common Y. C. tallow, at 36A, 33115. 7d per ton, free on board exclusive of interest and del credere, and 500 casks were done even at 110 roubles, all money down, 36a, 3314. per ton free on board, ex clusive of interest and del credere, 116 to 115 roubles with handmoney, 107 roubles, with all money down for soap tallow ; per June. at 113 roubles, with all money down, 363, 341 1. 10d, for first Ukraine Y. C., and at 115 roubles with handmoney ; but as the most needy sellers have thus provided themselves with money, 1 rouble more is demanded; however, there is no reason to believe this would be granted ; on the contrary, a further fall of prices is very likely, if the article should not be come firmer again in England. Hemp—Prices of this article have likewise receded materially during the last fortnight. Clean hemp for June and July delivery has been sold at 77 76 roubles, all money down (at 36a, 23118 s 10d, 231 13s 2d per ton free on board) 410 roubles with handmoney. Ontshot we could buy at 74 roubles all money down, at 76 roubles with handmoney. Half-clean we could buy at 67 roubles all money, down at 70 roubles with handmoney. The supplies this year are *expected to be very large, and estimated up to nearly 1,800,000 poods. The quality is reported to be inferior to that of the supply of last year. The purchases on contract up to this date amount to about 800,000 poods. MINING INTELLIGENCE COPPER ORES SOLD AT REDAUTII, MAY 10.—Total, 2,5.44 tons.

'ALS. S MAY 12, 1849. A letter from Leipzig, of the 9th, in the Korner Zeitung, states' that the city of Dresden capitulated On the afternoon of that day. FRANKFORT. In the afternoon sitting numerous questions were put to the Ministers on the events in Saxony and the Bavarian Palatinate. The President of the Council said that the Government was without news of im portance from Saxony, and the Minister of War announced that the Commandant of Landau had declared that town in a state of siege, and that the Central Government had sent troops to his assistance. This caused great dissatisfaction to the Liberal party, and a proposition was made to impeach the Minister of War forthwith, for not having encouraged the insurrectionary movement at Landau. The Assembly, however, negatived this. A proposition was then made that, at ;an early sitting the next day, the Assembly should take into consideration a proposition declaring that the Assembly was decided to support the•popular movement in Bavaria and Saxony in sup port of the constitution. Madame Rothschild, mother of the Rntlisdilds, died•at Frankfort, on the 7th. aged 99. , South Wheal Frances held their bimonthly meet ing on Monday, when a dividend of 101. per share was . declared for F e b ruar y an d M arc h , l eav i ng a b a l anc e of 723/. ss. 10d, in the banker's hands.

Wheal Trelawny held their meeting on Tuesday, when a dividend of 3/. per share was d&— lured for the quarter ending February, and a balance of 8321. 13.. 9d. carried to the credit of the next account. The profit on the three months' working amounted to 1,062/. 12, 7d. The mine is represented to b e i n a ver y i m p rov i ng position. At the Mary Ann meeting, on Wednesday, the balance in tavour of the company was about 5001.; the usual statement of accounts has not yet been received. At the meeting of the lleignsto❑ Down Consuls, ail Tuesday, a call or ss. per share was made. The report of Mr. J. H. Ilitehins is highly encouraging, and holds out the most sanguine expectations of having some very early and important discoveries. At the Wheal Lovell meetir g the statement presented showed a profit of 5091. 9s. 2d. on the workings of De cember, January, and February. The balance against the company at the previous meeting, is now lessened to 8121. si. 9d., and we learn the prospects of the mine are highly encouraging. At the North Wheal Friendship meeting a call of 10s. per share was deemed necessary to pay off liabilities and for further operations. The agent's report repre sents the present position and prospects of the mine as very favourable. liingsett and Bedford . Company held their account meeting on Monday last, the 7th inst., when a call of sa. per share was made. The rt.ports of Capts. Spargo anti James are encouraging. In foreign mines the buiness done appears to be confined to St. John del Rey ; Australian, Bulanos, Alten, and Guadalcanal, and the transactions in each have not been numerous. The Imperial Brazilian Mining Association have re ceived dispatches to the 23d February, advising remit tance of about 901bs. of gold (value 4,0001) which is daily expected. the returns from February 13th to 22d are—Gongo, 4 lbs. 2 ozs. 2 dwts.; Banana), 9 lbs. 6 ort. 15 dwts.—total, 13 lbs. 8 ozs. 17 dwts. The total from the Ist January is 56 lbs. 1 oz. 18 dwts. The manager's report of the underground operations is not very en couraging, although we consider the prospects are more favourable than last advices. We learn that the appoint ment of Captain Joel lilitchins, to supersede the present commissioner, has recently,taken place; we therelbre, look forward with much interest to the period when he will commence his operations at the mines, deeming this selection, from his lung ability and practical experience, to be a laudable act on the part of the directors, and considering him the most probable person to bring this valuable property into profitable working. By letters received from South Australia, we learn that the Kapunda Mines are now in an efficient working order. The shafts are down to the 30 fathom level, and preparations being made to commence the sinking to the 40. The ores hitherto selected have been such only that would pay fur transmission to Euglaud; but the ur• rangements that have been made for smelting copper ore in toe colony will enable the proprietors to turn to ad vantage the immense quantity of lower per centege ores, which they can readily supply, and, consequently, work to a large monthly profit. A smelting company has also been established in Van Diemun's Land, where coal can be raised in abundance at 2s 6d per tun. In cous,quence of receiving the Copitipo report last week, we omitted to give a summary of the gold and silver mines of that company. We find that at the Al Fin Hellada Silver Mines, in taking down the lode which had been desued for 3f varras, about nine to ten tons of silver ores were broken, estimated worth 6,0001.; the lode in the bottom and end was considered then of a richer quality. The San Jose del Carmen is equally productive, but the scarcity of water and labourers have retarded the operations, inasmuch that the value of the produce cannot be ascertained for a time. In the Mercedites, Carmen Alto, and Loreto Mines the lodes aro represented as being rich and productive. The produce of the Al Fin Ballade and San Jose del Carmen Mines for the month of February to the company's pro portion is about 7 tons of silver ore. In the Esperunza Mine these lodes form a junction at about 30 fathoms in depth, where a bunch of gold ore is expected; from some samples tried, a produce of 5 ounces in the ton has been realised. The Mercedites and Santo Domingo Mines are producing rich gold ores; iu the former, the lode, or veins, are from 21t. to 3ft. wide, with very superior samples. Other sets, in which the company are more or less interested, may be considered of great importance. These mines must prove a valuable acqui sittun to the company, and will, no doubt, soon place them in a position of resuming dividend:, LAW TELLIGEN CE. covief OF COMMON PLEAS, May 11. (Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westmicster, before Mr. Jus tice AlAumE, and common juries.) BARTON V. HUTCHINSON. This was an action of indebitatus assumpsit, on an alleged contract, by which the defendant was to pay 3001. to the plaintiff, for certain improvements effected in a gas-meter, of which the defendant was patentee. Mr. Sergeant Byles and Mr. Ilawkins appeared for the plaintiff, and Mr. Sergeant Wilkins and Mr. Wise fur the defendant. The defendant, it a pp eare d , was t h e ass i gnee o f a patent in an improvement in gas.meters, called the Bri tish patent dry gas meter, which, in 1845, he sold for 3,000/. to a company, which was after wards incorporated under the Joint-stock Companies Act, under the style of the British and Foreign Gas -meter Company. The de fendant was appointed the engineer of the company, and also became a shareholder. Before the complete registration of the company, the defendant informed the Board of the provisional committee that the plaintiff could effect some improvements in the meters, and upon the defendant's recommendation, the plaintiff was employed, on the terms that he was to re ceive 3/. per week and a commission upon the sales of the meters. This arrangement continued till the pro ject failed, and then the plaintiff made the present de mand for his services and commission. Fur the defence it was contended that under the 25C - 1 section of the Joint-Stock Companies Act, the contract was made with the company, and nut personally with the defendant, who had only acted as the agent of the company in the transaction. The Learned JUDGE left it to the jury to say whether the plaint fl' had proved a contract between him and the defendant individually, or between him and the company of which the defendant was a member. The Jury found a verdict for the plaintiff, damages 2301., and that the contract Via 3 made with the defendant LOVELL V. BARTY. In this case Mr. Sergeant Wallinger and Mr. Locke appeared for the plaintiff; and Mr. Prentice for the de fendant. The action was in trespass, for false imprisonment and charging the plaintiff with larceny before a magistrate; to which the defendant pleaded a justification, that the plaintiff stole his dog, and that he gave him into custo dy and made the charge alleged in the declaration in cons( quence. It appeared that the plaintiff was the toll-house keeper at the Manor-house toll-gate, ut the Seven-sisters road, Holloway. The defendant was a person of re spectability, residing at Nark-cottage, Tollington-park, liornsey-road. On Saturday, the 3d of February last, the defendant's dog—a largo black Newfoundland dog— followed the patrol on duty there, and the policeman, thinking it belonged to some one living in the neigh bourhood, and that it would soon be owned, left it in the care of the plaintiff at the toll-gate. The plaintiff locked the dog up in his yard. The defendant soon afterwards hearing that the dog was there, early on Sunday morning took a policeman with him to the plaintitra house, and on asking for the dog, it was shown to him, and he then gave the plaintiff into the custody of the policeman on a charge of stealing the dog. The plaintiff told the de fendant that the dog had been given into his charge by oue of the M division of police until it was owned, but the defendant persisted in giving him in charge. He was then taken to the Clerkenwell station-house, and given in charge for having the defendant's dog unlaw fully in his possession. On Sunday night, the 4th of February, he was bailed out. The case was heard the following day before the magistrates of Clerkenwell police-court, and the charge was dismissed. In conse quence the plaintiff lost a week's employment, besides the annoyance he had been subjected to. This was the plaintiff 'a case. For the defence it was contended that the d efenda nt's deftehnedant dog step 's to son having been refused permission whichhe away, the defendant was justified in the took, and that any damage the plaintiff might have sus•. tabled would have been amply satisfied by proceeding in the County Court. The Jury found a verdict for t he plaintiff—Damages, 251. letter . which gess, of lloxton, future a g wellare of this unfortunate young h n t a l s e m w a r n i t te w n h o t o h l' a I s ar. taken much woman, t - her benefit to send her, under the pro subscribed for that it is the intention of the parties who have interest t h eE iliilsLhiYonpStolheNNl).---- appears, fro ilro; : : . 1 tection of an elder brother, to one of the West In dian colonies.

There were altogether twenty- four different cases against him, and by each' of which tie rendered himself liable to a penaltyof2 o /. The defendant complained of not being suppli ed with th e necessary information by the Crown to enable him to conduct his defence, and that he had been prose cuted a second time for the same offence, the flidt action cise, having f a il e d, an d o b liged to incur in enormous ex p ense .

The case bad not concluded when we went to press. FRANCE. It was announced that the Governmert contem plated a coup d etat against the National Assembly. This rumour receives confirmation from the fact that General Foret refused to obey the orders of the President of the Assembly, by sending two battalions to guard it during its sitting —a breach of orders which was brought under the notice of the Assembly by M. Armand Marrast, and apologised for by M. Odilon Barrot. The debate on the conduct of the Ministry, in dis patching the expedition to Rome, was renewed yes terday. It was stated by M. Ledru Rollin, and not contradicted by M. Odilon Barret, who followed him, that the French army had been told that they were marching to expel the Neapolitans from Rome, and to defend the Republic, and that nothing could exceed the exasperation of the soldiers when they dis covered the shameful trick by which they had been deceived into shedding their blood in the cause of the reactionaries. M. Jules Favre said that the cornices of St. Peter's had been damaged by the French cannon-balls, three of which had been picked up and exyosed in the Quirinal, with this inscription—" En franchisement of Italy ! Homage of the French Pope—supporters to the church of St. Peter's I' M. Favre concluded by passing a vote of want of con fidence in the Ministry.

ALTONA, MAT 9, 11 o'CLocir.—One Saxon and one Prussian officer have conveyed the intelligence, in passing through from the north, that two skirmishes have already occurred between the Holstein insur gents, who have advanced towards Fredericia, on the one side, and the Prussian, Bavarian, and Hessian vanguard, who have advanced towards Veile, on the other, and the Danish outpost detachments. The Danish outpost entrenchments, in the vicinity of Alminde and Bramdrup, were taken by the Holstein forces, with no slight loss ; and among the rest Count Schlicfen, major of the 7th battalion of Holstein Jagers, has fallen. It was said that a further advance would take place immediately, so as to con fine the Danes to the fortress of Fredericia, no doubt, by this division ; whilst the auxiliary forces operated on the side of Veile, against the Danish corps of General Von Bulow. HALF PAST 12 O'CLOCIL.—At this moment my servant has arrived with the intelligence that an engagement of some hours' duration had been the result of the advance of the Holstein army upon the Danish lines of defence between Co fling and Fredericia, in which operation they bad been beyond any d ou b t successful, driving the Spanish army entirely out of their strong positions. There can be little or no doubt of the correctness of this information, as the people are cheering away lustily. lam further in formed that the Prussian forces have also had a brush, and were steadily advancing upon Veile. This even ing we shall have furthernews by the eight o'clock train from Rendsburg. From Saxony the accounts mention thus :—On the afternoon of the 7th instant the troops had nearly taken every post of consideration from the insurgents. A great number of Poles were anAvig these, and had given instructions in the art of preparing the barri cades. The members of the Provisional Govern ment had fled, and some of the officers of the Com munal Guard had been taken prisoners, among whom was said to have been Colonel Heintze. The Prussians had lost several officers killed and wounded. PRUSSIA. The news from the Prussian Rhine provinces, con tained in the last number of the .Kolner Zeitung, is of a very serious character. Almost all the principal towns in the districts of Cologne, Dusseldorf, and Coblentz have been the scenes of bloody conflicts be tween the troops of the line and the armed Landwehr. On the evening of the 9th instant crowds of people assembled in Dusseldorf, and a rumour was spread of their intention of attacking the residence of the military commander of that town. The garrison marched out, but at the same time the bugles of the Landwehr were heard in the streets. The pave ment was torn up, and barricades arose as if by magic in all parts of the town. The tocsin was sounded ; its larum was interrupted by the discharge of cannon and musketry. The barricades were fired at with grape and canister, and some of them taken by the troops. The combat continued all night. Th A e pause took place a t 3 o ' c l ock i n the mornin g of armed peasantry, w hi c h h a d co me to larum of the tocsin was a t l eng th silenctehe rescue d.iro o Troops the city, were pr even t e d f rom entering the gates, which were occ u pi e d b y t h e military. At length, at ten w er o o 'c m l oacskt masters of the the to m o rn i ng n of tahe a lo e i t e h g inst.,rap c thedtroopsspatd i spa t ch , o from Berlin proclaimed the state of sieg e at Dussel dorf; and in the environs. At Elberfeld the troops were less fortunate. The at Landwehr of that district had assembled with a firm determination to repress any occupation of the city by troops of the line. On the 9th inst. the town was ctually entered by a troop of lancers, two com • f a te n r d w a a r r m ds e , d b a b r a r n i d ca s d f e r s om we s re ol e in re g c e t n e , d, R t e h me tocsin sounded, and armed bands from Solingen, Remsheid, panies of foot, and two field pi eces , an d almost imme and other places i n t h e neighbourhood, d R i o a n t e s l d y o ads, f commenced pouring in, keeping the soldiers at bay throughout the day. At ten o'clock i n t h e evening the military commenced its attack upon a barri cade near the Town hall, but the officer command. ing the storming party fell in the first onset ; and, after a fruitless contention, the troops were forced to leave the town and proceed to Dusseldorf. The city of Elberfeld was tranquil. Order was kept up by the officers of the Landwehr and the municipal authorities. _The Cabinet summons to the Landwehr to assemble in the district towns to be enlisted was lik ew i se re listed at bate enlisted. Neuss,where only one man presented him self The last news from Westphalia is such that there can be no doubt this ancient Prussian province will follow the example of the Rhenish provinces. Even the Landwehr of the Mark has ref use d to b e en listed, and the more than ridiculous attempt is being made to force them by the re g i men t s o f th e line. The meetings of magistrates at Paderborn, Munster, and Minden, have adopted the Cologne resolutions. The Mainzer Zeitung states that a large meet ing took place at Mannheim on the Bth instant. A battalion of foot was marched up to the meet ing, and the word to fire given. The order was obeyed by the sergeants only ; the privates ground arms, and it was found necessary to withdraw the battalion. AUSTRIA. A telegraphic dispatch was received on the 7th at Vienna announcing that the Magyars, 15,000 strong, had • advanced against Odeaberg from Raab. The Hungarian army at Raab consisted of 35,000 men. SAXON Y. Advices f rom D res d en ar e of th e morn i ng o f t h e 9th inst. All t h e c hi e f pos itions o f th e town were occupied by the troops on the morning of the Bth, and another detachment of 1,200 Prussian soldiers arrived from Berlin. The combat continued with great exasperation and perseverance up to the hour when the post lett on the 9th; but its general issue seemed to be favourable for the Toyal party. ITALY. The Nazione of Turin publishes an address of the municipality of Bologna to the Roman Constituent , Assembly, dated the Ist inst., in which the interven tion of the French in the Roman States is declared to be contrary to the law of nations ; and it is fur ther stated that the municipal council of Bologna, interpreting the wishes of the citizens, protests against the abuse of power, and declares that a cle rical restoration would prevent at Bologna, as well as in other towns of the State, the maintenance of order and public tranquillity. The Piedmonten Gazette of the 7th quotes a letter from Ferrara, of the Ist of May, stating that 3,000 Austrians, who had made every preparation to cross the PO, and join the troops that had previously ar rived at Ferrara, suddenly retired to w ard s Rovigo. This retreat was attributed to the serious losses the Austrians were said to have suffered before Malghera on the 27th and 28th. The Venetians, it was said, had also made a successful sally. On the morning of the 7th the sentence pronounced upon General Ramorino was posted in the streets of Turin. The Council of War had condemned him to degradation and death, on the following count : That on the 20th of March last he had knowingly omitted to take with the fifth division of Lombards, then under his command, a strong position at La Cava and thereabouts, on the left bank of the Po, as he had been directed by a written order dated Alessandria, the 16th of that month, from the Corn mander-in•Chief, and that he had remained, contrary to that order, on the right bank of the Po with the greater part of his division, thus permitting the en trance of the enemy by Pavia, and thereby endan gering the safety of the Piedmontese army. The King mitigated the sentence to that of death without degradation. THE ARMY AND NAVY. (From the United Service Gazette of this day.)

His Excel lency was received by a Guard of Honour of the Ist \Vest India Regiment, under Captain Craig, with the usual salutes. A GALLANT ACT OF DEVOTION.—A young officer, Mr. Fenwick, the mate commanding the Rolla, did a very gallant thing this week at Portsmouth. On Monday even ing, in hoisting up a boat on board the Rolla, at Spit head (it blowing hard at the time), one of the naval ap prentices was thrown out of her by the rolling of the brig, when Mr. Fenwick immediately jumped overboard after the little fellow, but as the tide was running very strong he had got some distance astern. The w eat he r being excessively cold the boy soon became benumb. d, and but for the encouragement given him to persevere in his attempts to keep above water, by Mr. Fenwick, who was near him, he would undoubtedly have perished. A boat was promptly sent from the brig and rescued both. The boy «as perfectly insensible when picked up. Mr. Fenwick having plunged overboard with all his clothes on found it a very difficult task to keep himself from sinking, and from this cause Was unable to reach the boy before the boat. Mr. Fenwick is a brother to the gallant Captain Fenwick, of the 30th Madras Native Infantry, who was recently so dangerously wounded in the first attack on the Seilths under Lord Gough. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal of this day.) Notwithstanding an apparent dulness in the mining share market during the week there has been, upon the whole, we find, a fair proportion of business transacted. Inquiries are being made for shares in several mines, which are held back for higher prices. West Caradon, Nest Buller, South Wheal Basset, South Frances, and Condurrow, are among those sought for. Holm bush is represented to have improved, the Flap• jack lode having been cut near the great cross-course, producing about 2 tons per fm. A large number of Camborne Consols shares have changed hands within the past few days, and we learn the prospects of the mine are highly - flattering. Shares in the following mines have changed hands during the week :—East Wheal Rose, Devon Great Con sols, South Wheal Frances, South Tolgus, West Setou, West Tolgus, Tincroft, Trelawny, Trebane, Bedford United, Camborne Heignston Consols, Mendip Hills, Trethellan, Mary Ann, CWm Etfin, Holmbush, Esgair Lli, Tamar Consols, East Tamar, South Ta mar, &C. The annual meeting of the Devon Great Consols Mines was held on Monday. The report furnished by the directors is a perspicuous and explanatory state ment of the proceedings during the past year, in which may be observed a laudable exorcise of prudent mea sures against the vicissitudes of future operations. The managing agent's report of the present position and prospects of the mines is characteristic—an elaborate, voluminous, and, at the same time, a highly interesting document, abounding in much statistical matter, accom panied by explicit tabular statements of the past year's workings. The balance-sheet of the company is made up to the Ist of March, and must prove the most grati lying portion of the whole to the shareholders, inas much that the profits during the year will enable the directors to declare an increased dividend, with a balance in hand of 17,257/. 175.. and ore bills due the 23d instant, amounting to 10,0241. lSs., with an increase of 16,9061. 16s. id. in the balance of assets over liabilities during the year. A dividend of 71. 4 10a. per share (or 7,6881.) will be declared upon the months of Jan. and Feb., immediately after the 23d inst. At the East Wheal Rose account. on Monday, a divi dend of 251. per share, or 3,2001, was declared for Ja nuary and February, carrying a credit of 2,7281.85. 9d. to the next account. 'rho statement gives the proceeds at 9,168/. 15s. Bd., and the profits at 2,4271. Is. 4d. for the above period. No agent's report accompanies the accounts for the information of distant shareholders, but we learn on private authority that they have " inter sected the Old Shepherd's east and west lode at a greater depth, where a fine and good course of ore has b e en found ; two men obtained 601. on tribute for one month, from the first pitch taken. This lode never made a permanent show of lead before in the eastern common . The lode extends 50 fms. in Cargoll, south west from the present workings, and a very considerable wa y after it has passed the Cargoll, ri g ht i nto and throug h the manor of Trehedra, south-east, where the principal workings of East Wheal Ros e are north and south.
