THE DEAD OF THE MEDITERRANEAN. —The whole channel of the Mediterranean must be strewed with human bones. Carthaginians, Syrians, Sidonians, Egyptians, Pei csians, Greeks, and Romans—there they lie, side by si do, beneath the eternal waters ; and the modern ship 'a at fetches freight from Alexandria, sails in its whole c ourse over buried nations. It may be the corruption: of the dead that now adds brightness to the phosphor of ;cence of the waves. Ali told me that in the East ti tey have a superstition ou this subject, which repres( is the spirits of the departed as hovering, whether on 'la nd or water, over the spots where the ruins of thei r earthly tabernacles are found ; so that in ploughing th e Mediterranean we sail through armies of ghosts more multitudinous than the waves. These patient spirits , sometimes ride on the foam, and at other times. repose in those delicious little hollows which look lik e excavated emeralds, between the crests of the waves. It is their union and thronging together, say the Orienta is, that constitute the phosphorescence of the sea, for whit Tever there is spirit there is light, and the billows fin ,sh with luminousness of vanished gene rations, that co ncentrate, as ib were, the starlight on their wings. [ADVERTIFCR BENT.]—A LIEUTENANT OF DRAGOONS CURED OF iLt LEUMATISM BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.— -T his officer, who is in the Dutch army, states that loway's Pills and Ointment have cured him of rheum at ism, which appeared to be incurable, as neither sea-ba . th ing, vapour-baths, nor preparations vaunted as sure remedi le 1, did him any good, and the treatment of the doctor, afi ;er several months' trial, was without sue-' cegs. At this Juncture he commenced taking these Pills and rubl:ing th e Ointment into the complaining parts twice a day, v rh ich effectually oured him in the course of six weeks. The truth of this statement can be vouched for by Mr. J. B. St ratman, of Bois-le-Duc.—Sold by all drag. gists • and at erofessor Holloway's establishment, 244 , Strand, Lomb THE CB °LYRA. ( Frotn the General Board of Health.) METROPOLIS. Returns made to the commissioners of Metropolitan Police by the superintendents of the D, K,. L, M, N, S, T, and V divisions of police, state that between the 24th ult. and the 2d inst. there have occurred in those districts 15 cases of cholera, 12 of which terminated fatally. Death ensued in several instances after very short illness ; for example—in Bi, 13i, 22, and two in 24 hours after attack. The returns 'describe the locali ties in which deaths, have occurred as almost invariably in a very dirty and neglected state. Another death from cholera in Millbank Prison is re ported as having taken place on the 2d instant. This makes the seventh death from cholera in the Penitentiary since the 20th August, out of 12 cases which have occurred there in that period. DARLINGTON. Nov. 3.—Diarrhoea (death) ... GATESHEAD.

On Thursday evening a coroner's inquisition was holden at the Chest Arms Inn, High-street, Chatham, before Thos. Mills, Esq., coroner for this district, for the purpose of inquiring into the cause which led to the loss of life, and the explosion on the premises of Mr. Henniker, gun smith. The Coroner, in his remarks to the jury, observed from what he had heard respecting the cause of this fright ful accident, that at the time of the explosion Mrs. Henniker and her sons were doing an unlawful act, and which makes the party committing the offence liable to fine and imprisonment, under the act of parliament 6th Wm. 111. cap. I—making and selling fireworks. ,He understood that at the tim e o f th e ex pl osion b e t ween 601 b, and 701 b. of gunpowder were o n th e p rem i ses , an d if that quantity had exploded the fatal consequences both to life and property would have been great. He hoped that this sad and painful event would be a warn ing to all those who make and sell fireworks. Both making and selling fireworks was illegal. After evidence had been received detailing the facts of the catastrophe already published, The Coroner observed that the inquiry could not be carried further. It appeared that Mr. Henniker was not on the spot, as he was up stairs ; and the three sons were not in a fit state to give evidence, they being much burnt. The Jury said they were agreed that it was an acci dent, and it was probable that neither of the sons could state how the explosion took place. The following verdict was unanimously agreed, on : " The Jury find a verdict that the deceased met her death from the accidental explosion of the preparation of gunpowder used in making fireworks; and the jury consider that the making and selling fireworks in pri vate establishments is highly reprehensible." At ten o'clock, one hour before the inquest had closed, the second son, Peter, aged about 16 years, died after much painful suffering. Both of his arms and hands were burnt to a cinder. The eldest son, William, is not expected to live. PRICES OF SHARES. IN BANKS, ASSURANCE, AND OTHER COM PANIES' STOCK. From the Official List. PUBLISHED EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY EVENING.

ENCOUNTER WITH IL PANTHER.—A day labourer of Liria, near Valencia, in Spain, on going to work in a field at an early hour, about ten days ago, saw a strange. looking animal advam :e towards him, showing its teeth. The man stood his ground, and the animal stole on until pretty close to him, and then it made a bound and roared terribly. The man, who had a sickle in his hand, struck the beast in tle. neck, inflicting a deep wound. It fell bathed in blood,, and roared ,fearfully. He then slew it. It turned out to be a panther, escaped from a travelling menagerie.. He placed the animal on his back, and bore it in trint uph into the town. —Galignani. HORSES SOLD.—Mr..
