The St. Domingo Mahogany comprises logs and curls of the most approved dimensions and figure ; chiefly for tables and veneers. The Cuba is for the most part of large size, good colour, and roe, and from the best cutting districts of the island. Two of the cargoes of Honduras Mahogany comprise every variety of useful quality, and range from the smallest size up to 10 tons weight in the log. The Satin Wood is new, tolerably sound, with the best roe and mottle in curl and log. Though some are 181 inches deep, the logs are generally small in size. The Havana Cedar is very fresh, sound, and well squared, varying up to 281 inches, and averaging 16 inches in depth. The Pencil Cedar averages .8 inches, and ranges up to 184 inches square, and although some of the parcels are of mid dling quality, others are of the best and largest description of wood. The Rosewood, in sawn and split planks, is fresh, and of good quality and figure. The Rio averages 3c 23, and the Bahia, 3c 1 3, each plank. Of the Lignumvitte, 26 tons are mostly from 5 to 7 inches diameter, and 36 from 5 to 9 inches. The whole, choice City St. Domingo. The central situation and mode of business of this market, have established it in the estimation and preference of the trade ; but, the above selections of the more esteemed ship pers—instance, 942 logs and curls City Wood, merit, in a more marked degree than any sale heretofore,the attendance of all parties interested in Mahogany and other Cabinet and Machinery Woods.

A T a period like the present, when such efforts are being ri made, on all hands, in support of Church extension, when a cry has gone throughout the length and breadth of the land for Scriptural Instruction, it is truly gratifying to know that in Liverpool a strong feeling has been exhibited in this good work, proportioned in some measure, to the bless ings with which its own commercial interests have been attended, and certainly not inferior in point of energy and perseverance to that of any town in the kingdom. In proof of this assertion it may be stated, that for the last thirty years Church accommodation has been on the in crease at the rate of one thousand and some hundred sittings annually ; that in the year 1809, the provision made by the Establishment for the public worship of the Almighty con sisted of some ten or twelve Churches, capable of contain ing not more than so many thousand individuals ; whereas now, in 1839, the cloud which for a time overshadowed the land has in our days begun to drop fatness—to pour forth its showers, so as to leave few parts of this town unrefreshed by , its mild and genial influence—there being at present in Li verpool and its environs, upwards of forty Churches, con taining an average of twelve hundred sittings each, in con nexion with our Protestant Episcopal Establishment; so that from the extreme limits of the Borough. north and south — from Kirkdale to Toxteth Park—there exists a chain of Tem ples for the worship of the TRIUNE JEHOVAH, and at such convenient distances as to leave every man within that range inexcusable who neglects to hear the glad tidings of a Saviour. But it may be asked—What of those other districts not less important and more populous than any to which notice has been hitherto directed? What has been done in fur therance of this " good work" in the neighbourhood of our shipping stations, along the densely-crowded shores of the Mersey? What for the large and rapidly-increasing popula tion of Windsor and its precincts ? We reply that, as to the Christian nothing seems done whilst anything remains to be done so these .truly important and populous districts have not escaped the notice of the Christian philanthropist, as is abundantly testified by the exertions lately put forth in their behalf by the Clergy and their several congregations, and with such triumshant success. It is hardly necessary to advert to the formation of the Liverpool Church Building Society, since which time the erec tion of several new Churches has been decided on ; funds to a very considerable amount have been raised; suitable situ ations for some of the intended Churches secured ; the work now proceeds briskly and auspiciously —and all within the short space of a few months. When, in addition to the above, it is stated that, in the neighbourhood of Windsor, also, a large and beautiful Church is now in progress of erection, and that thus no chasra remains to be filled up, every man, who is really a friend to the Church of our Fathers, to a pure, chaste, and Scriptural system of Religious orship and Instruction, must in his heart rejoice, seeing that " this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes." It now remains briefly, but specially, to notice the new Church of St. Saviour, Windsor, with a view of enlisting the sympathies of the Protestant public in its behalf. For many years past various efforts have been made to secure to this portion of our town the advantages of adequate and convenient Church accommodation; but from one cause or other, these efforts, it is to be lamented, have proved abortive. The difficulty of procuring land of good title and satisfactory tenure, want of funds and other impediments, have stood in the way of their accomplishment ; but it is matter of thankfulness to be enabled now to announce, that these obstacles have been almost wholly surmounted ; that, land, freehold of inheritance, has been purchased in a most desirable situation ; that a plan has been adopted, a Com mittee formed, Trustees named, and the work of building already in so advanced a state, as to justify the hope of its being opened for public worship early in the summer of 1840. In behalf of this Church an appeal is now made to the In habitants of Liverpool ; and when it is considered that thus an elegant and convenient place of worship will be afforded to the wealthier portion of the community—that the same advantages will be extended to the middling classes, and at moderate expense—that four hundred sittings will be appro priated to the use of our poorer brethren, and that the bless ings of a solid and Scriptural Education, through the medium of Sunday, Daily, and Infant Schools, will, with God's assistance, be put within the reach of not less than ONE THOUSAND CHILDREN, it is hoped that this appeal will not be made in vain, remembering that "there is that scattereth, and yet inereaseth ; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty." The foundation stone of St. Saviour's Church was laid by the Rev. AUGUSTUS CAMPBELL, on the 15th April last. Contributions in aid of the prosecution of the work will be received at the BANKING HOUSES previously named, and also at the STANDARD, COURIER, and LIVERPOOL MAIL Newspaper Offices. MESSRS.

The style of preparing PRIESTLEY'S SEIDLITZ POWDERS is peculiar to himself, and combines scientific skill with great accuracy, and although numbers of people acquainted with the business, and others, have of late years attempted imitations, they have invariably been found to be spurious compounds, neither pos sessing the agreeable flavour nor the Medicinal properties of the Seidlitz Waters.

GEORGE ROBINS has just received the final .04. instructions of the Trustees, acting under anIRRE VOCABLE power of Sale, to OFFER by PUBLIC COM PETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, on HURSDAY, the 22d instant, at Twelve o'clock, in ONE T, THE GLANBRANE ESTATE AN ER PARK, near to the MARKET TOWN OF LLA DOVERY, in Carmarthenshire, South Wales. This valuable Property is all Freehold, and, from its extent, may be accounted one of THE LARGEST PRINCIPALITIES IN THE COUNTY, indeed it is recognised as THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF WALES. In respect to the Mansion it may be well to observe that it needs a considerable outlay in the shape of ornamental repair and decoration. It is a stone edifice, and therefore needs but little substantial aid. Its architectural form has always been highly appreciated, and the situation cannot be too much panegyrised—surrounded by a landscape of incomparable beauty and extent, and screened from the cold by luxuriant plantations. The Estate consists of FIFTY-SEVEN FRREHOLD FARMS, Two Water Corn Mills, THE MANOR OF NEWCHURCH, AND THE ADVOWSON AND NEXT PRESENTATION to Llanwetyd, in the County of Brecon. There are SEVEN HUNDRED ACRES OF WOOD LAND, which are exceedingly ornamental, besides finding never ending enjoyment to a sportsman. THE GLANBRANE RIVER, celebrated for its trout fishing, intersects the property, and is a great auxiliary in irrigating the RICH AND VERDANT MEADOWS IN THE VALLEY BELOW. THE DOMAIN EXTENDS OVER A TERRITORY OF TEN THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED ACRES, with the turnpike road passing through it. There are besides, in and near Llandovery,__ TWO VILLA ABODES. with ten residences, occupied by the principal tradespeople of the town. The-present rental is obviously low, arising out of previous circumstances that could not be controlled ; happily, all dith cultivs have at length succumbed to the activity and energy that has been brought to bear, and it may_ now be recom mended as free from doubt or hazard, and the most timid may safely approach this sale. THE ANNUAL RENT LAST YEAR _ _ exceeded Three Thousand Three Hundred Pounds. It has been accurately surveyed and valued this spring, and the result is that a rental of FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS A-YEAR is placed beyond doubt. It may almost be called EXTRA PAROCHIAL, inasmuch as the poor-rate is quite nominal. AN EAST INDIAN NABOB, who is desirous of extending his influence, and AIDING MATERIALLY HIS LEASE FOR LIFE, will do well to make a searching inquiry into every fact con nected with this immense sale, and if he is ambitious of A SEAT IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, and in his politics be inclined to support the Church and State, he would assuredly append the dignity of M.P. to his purchase. Particulars are preparing, to be had at the Castle Hotel, Brecon ; Llandoverv, Abergavenny, and Monmouth ; Plough, Cheltenham ; White Hart, Bath ; Bush, Bristol; Messrs. Roy, Blunt, Duncan, and Johnson, solicitors, Lothbury ; of Philip Vaughan, Esq., Brecon ; of Mr. Mulliner, surveyor, Old Broad-street ; the Mart, and at Mr. George Robins's Offices, London.

IMPROVED SODA POWDERS. . _ It has been observed, that the Soda Water, when kept in jars, parts with its carbonic gas ; that carriage of it to a dis tance has been attended with risk and considerable expense ; and that from these inconveniences, its use has been confined chiefly to large cities and their environs. To obviate these objections, and to extend the use of this agreeable and effica cious Water, the ingredients for making it are offered to the public.—Sold in boxes at ls. 6d. each. FLUID EXTRACT OF SARSAPARILLA. _ In this preparation are concentrated all the Medicinal Pro perties of Sarsaparilla Root. To persons, therefore, who, from various causes, would experience great inconvenience, or with whom it would be utterly impossible to prepare the Compound Decoction, the Fluid Extract, which possesses the advantages of portability and of keeping in any climate, will be found a most desirable mode of employing this much esteemed Medicine. Two teaspoonsful of the Fluid Extract, put into a wine glass full of water, makes a preparation equal in strength to half-a-pint of the Compound Decoction, formerly prescribed by the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Pharmacopoeias. The diseases in which it has proved most beneficial are those of the Skin ; such as Scorbutic Affections, Eruptive Diseases, Secondary Symptoms, &c. arising from a diseased state of the system at large. For removing Blotches, Pim ples, &c. from the Face, this Medicine has no superior. The extensive use and high reputation of this preparation has led to numerous imitations, disguised by the name of Syrup, Essences, &c. The whole medicinal virtues of the Sarsaparilla consist in its extractive matter, and it possesses no real property in the form of essence, while the Syrup is injurious to the digestive organs by causing acid fermentation. Sold in bottles, at 4s. 6d., 7s. 6d., 10s., 155., and 21s. The larger sized bottles are the cheapest. VEGETABLE HAIR OIL Is allowed to be an excellent discovery for invigorating and renovating the human Hair. It eradicates the scurf, nourishes the Hair, prevents its falling off, produces a most beautiful natural curl, and gives to artificial Hair a peculiar softness of texture, and luxuriaut appearance.—Sold in bottles at ls. 3d. and 3s. each. CHEMICAL MARKING INK. For Writing on Lineu with a Common Pen. This is very superior to the generality of what are called Permanent Inks. It gives a most brilliant black, which cannot be removed by acids or any other causes, without at the same time destroying the linen. Families may be accommodated with the improved Permanent Ink and Preparation separately if required.—Sold in Cases, Is 6d, and 3s. VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER. A pleasant Tonic Tooth Powder, which simply removes all tartarous incrustations from the enamel ; and b - its peculiar properties preserves that necessary covering.—Sold in Boxes, 2s 6d. FURNITURE OIL, For Cleaning and Polishing Furniture. DIRECTIONS.—First clean the Furniture from wax or other composition that may have been previously used, then take a little of this Oil, and with a soft piece of Flannel apply it all over ; and for the first time let it remain on twelve hours. After wiping it off with another piece of soft Flannel, continue rubbing it till a beautiful polish is produced. A little used twice a week is sufficient to ensure the brightness and durab ility of the Furniture.—Half-pint Bottles is, pints is 9d, quarts 3s. GENUINE METALLIC LUSTRE. This article is recommended to Housekeepers for cleaning all manner of Gold and Silver Plate, Metal Teapots, Pewter Mersuies, Brass Fenders, C an dl es ti c k s , St a ir Rods, Brass Plates on doors, Tin Covers, &c. &c.; with half the usual labour which is generally required with other preparations, the above Lustre leaves a beautiful polish on. the Metal. It will also be found useful in the Stable department, for clean ing Brass mounted Carriage, Gig, or Coach Harneac—Sold in squares, at 6d and is each. _ SCOURING DROPS. The purpose of this useful article is for taking Grease Spots out of Silks, Stuffs, fine Woollen Cloths, &c., without in juring the finest fabric or most delicate colour. The best method of using the Scouring Drops is, to spread the Silk, &c., on a table, with a clean napkin under it, and put a few drops on a bit of new or very clean Flannel, and rub the spot until it disappears; then with a clean napkin rub it till quite dry. It leaves no more stain than a drop of water, which hanging a few hours in the air, or a few days' wear, will take away.—Price ls. ESSENTIAL SALT OF LEMONS. For taking Iron Moulds, Ink Spots, and other Stains, out of Linen, Muslin, Lace, &c., and for many other useful pur poses.—Price Is. per Box, or Three Boxes for 2s. 6d.

BANKRUPTCY FIATS.—A. return of the number of fiats in bankruptcy, issued from the 11th January, 1838, to the 11th of January, 1839, has just been made ; by which it appears that during that period there were London fiats, 306, and country fiats, 781, making a total of 1087 for the year. Of the country fiats we find the following number attached to neighbouring places :—Manchester 82, Liverpool 44, Ches ter 2, Birmingham 54, Carnarvon 7, Holywell 1, Maccles field 5, Nantwich 1, Wrexham 1, Shrewsbury 5, Welshpool 4. The assizes at Huntingdon were maiden—not a single cause or prisoner to try, Justice Vaughan, in briefly charging the grand jury, congratulated them on the peaceable and honest state of things existing around them ; which he trusted would be as permanent as it was satisfactory. If he lived another month, he said, he should have travelled as a Judge thirteen years, and had attended more than a hundred commissions of assize, but had never before met with so novel a case as to have neither prisoner nor cause for trial. We learn from a correspondent in Sutherland, that the Moors were never in finer condition for the sportsman than they are at present. The birds are fully stronger than they were at the end of August last year, and coveys of eight or ten are very common. In some parts of the country, the dryness of the season led to more extensive heath-burning than usual, and this may have decreased the number of grouse in certain localities ; but on the whole, there will be excellent sport, and game of first-rate quality.—lnverness Courier. SUDDEN DISAPPEARANCE.—The attention of the "cake eating" portion of the population of Warrington has, within the last two months, been solicited to a very smartly fitted-up shop, opened in a very public part of this town, in the bread, biscuit, confectionary, tea, coffee, and snuff line. To all appearance the stock was extensive, and no difficulties were thrown in the proprietor's way in getting whatever credit he chose in Warrington, and also in the neighbouring towns of Liverpool and Manchester. His trade being somewhat con siderable, a considerable " indebtedness" as Brother Jona than would say, was incurred, and one Manchester traveller was so anxious for the settlement of his small account—some £4O, that he waited the proprietor's return from Manchester by the last train on Saturday night. They met at the station, and the traveller was quite rejoiced to hear that his debtor, like a good honest tradesman, had made a journey on pur pose to Manchester with the money, which he had paid to some little, short, oldish gentlema n a t th e t rave ll er ' s place of business. It is said that the traveller " cracked:" an odd bottle over the success of his expedition to Warrington, and remained in the town over Sunday. On going back to Man chester, he was rather surprised to find that his " client" had made a mistake, as his " little, short, oldish" gentleman at home had neither set eyes on him nor the cash. He again journeyed to Warrington, and then—the truth must be told —his customer was ascertained to have left the town with his family, in a car, at six o'clock on Sunday morning. The gas was burning both in the shop and parlour, and had set tire to the paper hangings. For the safety of the house and neighbourhood, a forcible entrance into the premises was effected. The trespassers immediately proceeded to take stock, of which the following are a few items :—Six large loaves of sugar, made of Northwich salt, thirteen large packages of tea, and some " finest Jamaica coffee," so many packages of sawdust, neatly tied up in brown paper, 601bs of crackers, and sundry other dozens of biscuits, all sawdust with the exception of one biscuit to each parcel; sundry butchers' bills, and a few stale cakes. The household goods consisted of a table, two chairs, a bedstead upon three legs, a flock bed, fender and tea kettle. The police are in search of the cake man, and no doubt he will before long be called upon to give his account of the affair.—Manchester Courier. BUCKINGHAM PALACE.-,A. French architect in London, writing to his friend at Paris, gives an account *of this con cern, which would be sufficiently ludicrous if it were not, un fortunately, much too true. The letter opens as follows : " My dear sair,—l shall now give you an account of de Royal Palace, called here de Buck-and-ham Palace, which is building for de English King in de Jean Bull plum-pudding and roast-beef taste, for which de English are so famous. It is great curiosity. In de first place, de pillars of de palace are made to represent English vegitable, as de sparrow grass, de leek, and de onion; den de entablatures or freizes are vary mosh enriched with leg of mutton and de pork, with vat dey call de garnish, all vary beautiful carved ; den, on de impediment of de front, stand colossal figure of man-cook, with de large English toasting-fork in his hand, ready to put into de pot a vary large plum-pudding behind him, which is vary fine plum-pudding, not de colour of black Christmas pudding, because de architect say it would not look veil in summair time—it is vary plain pudding. Then de small windows of de kitchen on each side of de impediment at top story of de palace, have before them trophy of de kitchen, such as pot and de p an , an d ot h are t i ngs , w hi c h l oo k well at de distance, only de poker and de tong are too big. On de wing of de palace, called the gizzard wing (de othare wing was cut off), stand the domestique servant, in neat dress, holding in de trays biscuit and tart, and othare ting. De name of de architect is Mistaire Hash, de King's architect, .who, I was informod, was roasted vary much. De English people seem vary much to like dis palace for de King, and do laugh vary much. Dere is to he in de front of de palace vary large kitchen range, made of white marble, vich, I was told, would contain von hundred of goose at von time. Dc palace, yen complete, will be called after von famous English dish, de Toad in de Hole !"—Blackwood's Magazine. THE BOLTON CHARTISTS.—Meetings have been held dur ing the week, almost nightly, on some spare ground near the bedquilt shop of Jacob Lomax, Little Bolton, which that gentleman has been..pleased to honour them with, although he has no right to it. Some very violent and inflammatory speeches have, we understand, been made, and at the meeting on Thursday night, it was resolved to commence the holiday on Monday, (yesterday) which they term the sacred tmonth ; but which would be more properly designated as the diabolical month, as it can mean nothing but murder and robbery. These kind of proceedings have at length alarmed the mayor and borough justices, for on yesterday we perceived a placard posted and signed by nearly the whole bench, announcing that any breach of the peace, or neglect of work w ou ld b e promptly attended to and the parties punished ; and that if any intimidation were used it would also meet with its deserts. Shortly after the walls had been covered with this Mr. Cullen, one of the borough magistrates, and Mr. Simpton, the super intendent together with P. C. Polht, proceeded to the smithy of Daniel Cowle, in Great Moor-street,—the great pik e man ufactory—and seized upon two pikes being all they could find in the place. One of them was in a finished state, being neatly:polished, and had an axe at the bottom with a worm to screw into a staff; the other was in an unfinished state. Mr. Cowle happened to be conveniently absent, or he would have shared the fate of his pikes, and been taken to the police office. There is scarcely a doubt but an attempt will be made to get up a holiday which can on l y en d i n a b reac h o f the peace. The inhabitants therefore cannot be too vigorous in their exertions to suppress by every means the diabolical purposes of the chartist leaders. —Bolton Chronicle. (From the Preston Chronicle.) It being, as we stated last week, pretty generally under stood that the chartists of this town intended to visit the Parish Church, on Sunday morning last, agreat concourse of persons assembled, about ten o'clock, near the sacred edifice, to witness the proceedings. The chartists did not, however, as had been anticipated,, march in procession, but came straggling in small bodies, without any apparent pro-ar rangement, or organization. Most of them were in their working apparel, and on entering the church, they took pos session, in the first instance, of the pews in the middle aisle. The churchwardens and other gentlemen were indefatigable in their endeavours to afford accommodation to the im mense numbers who thronged the church ; and by the time for the commencement of Divine service, the large edifice was crowded to excess in every part. There could be no less than two thousand persons present, about one-fourth cf whom, perhaps, were char tists. Some, however, are of opi nion, that the number of persons actually belonging to the chartist ranks in Preston, does not exceed 300, and that the crowds generally attendant on their proceedings are indivi duals merely drawn together by curiosity. Very few ladies made their appearance at the church, and of those who did attend, all, with about half-a-dozen exceptions, took their seats in the gallery. We need scarcely state' that the con gregation presented a most curious appearance. While there was an admixture of something irresistibly ludi crous, it was impossible to look on without being deeply and somewhat painfully affected by the spectacle. Of the ragged, the shoeless, and the unclean,—of the weak, the wicked, and ignor an t,— o f t h e good, the reputable, and the virtuous,—all were alike immortal, and all were assembled in the immediate presence of the great judge, whose office it will one day be to award the destinies of the immortal existence. How solemnly and how awfully then did the question force itself upon the reflecting mind, — how many of these immortals have come to the house of God, to worship, to honour, and to glorify Him,—and how many , alas! how many have come with the design of desecrating the temple, persecuting the disciples, outraging the ordinances, and insulting the very presence of their Maker. We cannot answer the question. The searcher of all hearts can, and the recording angel has already taken fearful account in the book of judgment. We dare not presume to decide that even one name has been written down for evil, but we dare scarcely venture to hope that the record is not taken as against many. The finger of omnisrienee is responsible for the. evidence; and there can, therefore, be no error.....'he Revererni-th5'51.4...., preached on the occasion, from the 84th chapter of Job, 29th verse—" When ,he giveth quietness, who then can make trou- • ' • ble ? and when he hideth hissface, who then can behdld ? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only." From these words the reverend gentleman deduced an appro priate and most eloquent discourse. He alluded to the un usual character of his congregation, and could not believe that the Almighty would view with approbation the conduct of those " who had scared away the regular worshippers of • the tabernacle." " There were unhappily to be found those, who neither fearing God nor regarding man, were willing to persecute the friends of religion ; their efforts were, however, vain, for when HE giveth peace who then can make trouble." The preacher went on to show that it was religion alone that, could satisfy those who were dissatisfied. Peace of conscience, and peace in outward circumstances, were alone the portion of those whose delight was in the ways of holiness, and nei ther one nor the other could be enjoyed by the worldly minded, the wicked, and the seekers of mischief. He then proceeded to state that it was the duty of ail to obey the laws of the na tion, and to practise all the social virtues, as being strict reli gious duties. Interspersing his discourse with several beau tiful and appropriate passages of scripture, he descanted upon the rewards in store for the righteous, and the punish ment due to the wicked, in the eternal world. Most earnestly and eloquently did he press the solemn question,—" who . shall behold Him," a question the deep and personal import of which appeared to produce a marked impression on the congregation. The rev. gentleman concluded a powerful and deeply impressive discourse by directing the attention of his hearers to the words of the twenty-first Psalm, besrimirig at the Bth verse, which had been read in the course of the morning service, and on again reading which he closed his sermon. The conduct and deportment of the congregation were in every respect unexceptionable,—in fact, we never witnessed a more decorous and becoming hearing in any congregation. It was an occasion which, to our humble comprehension, seemed emphatically calling for 'a special interposition of Divine influence, and really if there be any meaning or truth in appearances, it is the fact that the all wise master of congregations suited his spiritualising power to the occasion, and so effectually evidenced hi s p resence i n the midst of the people, and that to bless them, that many " who went to scoff remained to pray." We were exceed ingly edified at seeing numbers of the congregation, especially lads, join in the responses and the singing, with all apparent sincerity, modesty, end devotedness. We can only say, that if we are to regard last Sunday as a specimen of the worship of the working classes, may we frequently have them f or fellow worshippers, and may the holy unction of peace and good-will, and the spirit of harmony and brotherly kind ness, descend from above, as a rich shower of hallowipg dew.—An immense crowd assembled to witness the depar ture of the congregation, and everythinr , passed off:Wit,b. perfect quietness and order.—We learn e d yesterday, that the Parish Church is again to be visited by the chartists, to-morrow, and that they have submitted a text to the vicar, respectfully requesting him to adopt it as the theme of his discourse. We believe it is the 2nd chapter of James, verses 15 and 16. ECCLESIASTICAL AN D UNIVERSITY INTELLLIGENCE. (From the Oxford Hcrald.)

DEATH OF THE FATHER OF THE ARMY.—We regret to announce the decease of General Sir James Stewart, Bart., G.C.H„ which took place on Monday last, at his residence in this town.' Sir James was the oldest officer in the array, having entered it as a cornet on the 17th March, 1761 : he was promoted to a captaincy on the 7th July, 1766, and eventually attained a colonelcy in the 2d Dragoon Guards; on the 12th of January, 1815. He was a brave and distinguished officer, and will lie widely lamented in the profession.- 7 Cheltenham Examiner. The twelve jurors, by whom the fate of Bolani was de tided, are chiefly farmers, brought from various parts of the county of Northumberland, and are understood to be very respectable and very intelligent persons. During their retire ment from the court to consider their verdict, which occupied about three hours, considerable diversity of opinion pre vailed amongst them, four being for an acquittal, one for wilful murder, and seven for manslaughter. • Eventually they all concurred in a verdict of manslaughter, to which course they were certainly directed by the judge, and it may be added, against the feeling and opinion not only of the law-men, but of the public at large.—Netreactle Jonrnal. STRIKING A BARGAIN.—III several parts of England, when two persons are. driving a bargain, one holds out his right hand, and says," Strike me," and if th e other strikes, th bargain holds ; wence the striking a bargain.—Aubers't, in the Camden Society's fifth publication ; to which the erudite editor, Mr. Thomas, adds, " A custom somewhat . analogous is said to exist in Westminster School, at the pre sent day, when two boys, who agree to fight, go through the form which they call chopping hands • and it is said that this f o rm.of accepting a challenge i s looked upon as so irrevoca ble, that there has scarcely ever occurred an instance of the combat so resolved upon not taking place." EXTRAORDINARY WHEAT.—A gardener, of Boston, has now in cultivation a mos t extraor di nary spec i es o f wheat, such as is not to be found in any other part of the country. Tile cars average about nine or ten inches in length, and the straw about an inch and quarter in circumference. One peck of seed is amply sufficient for an acre, the yield from which is truly astonishing. Notwithstanding the high winds and heavy rains which have prevailed, this surprising when has not sustained the least injury. The whole of the pre sent crop is the produce of a single grain which was sown three years ago.—Boston Herald. CITY OF PERTH REPRESENTATION.--TO the utter aston ishment of all except the few who have been in possession of the secret for some days, the inhabitants were made aware, only yesterday, (Tuesday) that anotner election for a Inern ber of Parliament is immediately to ensue. And if anything could exceed this surprise, it was the published announdemcnt of Mr. Oliphant of Condie, the former representativd, that he again aspired to the honor of that preferment. Wd - are'so imperfectly acquainted with the arcana of this triatectivie that we can in the meantime say little on the subject; ofThiit the Hon. Arthur Kinnaird has been badgered by the cliq6e. and very likely baited by the bandogs of the government; for endangering their stability by his vote on the education question, as well as for giving them the slip on several'in'e vious occasions, is generally blieved to have led to his resig nation. How Mr. Oliphant has submitted to become'the tool of the party, is not such easy matter of conjecture. has however, thrown himself into the hands of a factiou echo grievously maltreated him before, who have treated Mr Iciti naird no better, and who will again play the same ganio.With their new choice, the first moment they have an end to,'S*Ke by doing so. At all events, if he has unwittingly beeomiilielr rn dupe, he must ha ve consen t e d t o b e their impleent"o efibbt some ulterior purpose—neither of which is it verX,4l l 4g# l e positio'n.-;-Perth Constitutione, ' ! -~ LIVERPOOL MECHANICS' INSTITUTION.
