EAST INDIA CorroN.—We have been gratified by finding from a file of the Bombay Times, received by the last overland mail, that public attention is still strongly directed to the im provement of the cotton of India. We find the following passage in a report of the proceedings of the third quarterly meeting of the Bombay Chamber of Commerce, for 1830-40, held on the 16th of May last:— "Read a letter from G. Giberne, Esq. transmitting a bale of Toomeil cotton, grown by ArdaseerDunjeeshaw Bahadoor, y in a village near Surat ; requesting that the same should be reported on, as compared with other cottons received by the chamber, and put to the test of a public sale ; and stating that a considerable quantity of cotton of equal quality could be produced, if likely to be sold at a remunerative price. Read and approved, after examination of the bale, the fol lowing report to be communicated to Mr. Giberne :--` This cotton is, in the opinion of the members, superior to that re ceived from Dr. Burnes from Kaira,. to the samples of Dec cannee and Egyptian cotton sent from Rutnagherie, and to the fine Broach cotton, formerly shipped to England by Mer wanjee Hortnusjee : it is, however, inferior to the beautiful specimens of Conkanee and Sea Island cotton produced at Rutnagherie, and noticed in page 34 of the printed report of the chamber for the second quarter of 1839-40. The mem bers consider it, on the whole, as about equal to the beautiful but short stapled New Orleans cotton, grown at Rutnagherie, referred to in the same page of the report. It would be still more valuable, were not the staple in some degree artificially injured, apparently by having been cleaned with the bow.' " The bale, having been put up to sale, was, after a brisk competition, knocked down to Messrs. Gibb, Miller, £ Co., at rupees 160 ver candy. It is necess'ry to observe, that " Toomeil cotton" only means cotton of the first picking, and we presume that the bale in question was merely the indigenous cotton of India, cultivated and gathered with more than usual care. If the price paid for it was, as we presume, only what it was fairly worth in the market, it must be valuable cotton ; for the price of the best Broach cotton was only about 115 rupees per candy. If any considerable quantity of such cotton could be produced at a moderate price, it would soon diminish our dependence upon the produce of the United States : _ PLEASANT WEATHER AT BOMBAY.—We sometimes think that Manchester is pretty abundantly sprinkled with rain ; but what will our readers say to the following account, ex tracted from the Bombay Times of June 17 ?—" The weather, on which for months every year so little requires to be said in general on this side of India, becomes, at the setting-in of the monsoon, a subject of the greatest importance. We give therefore to-day a table since the first fall of rain on the 4th down to yesterday the IGth, at which date we were in the midst of very severe rains. From this it appears that within the last twelve days IS 29 inches of rain have fallen, of which rably more than one half within the last Lantity of rain which is here said to have _ , would be a very large allowance for two Lis at Manchester. • ave had considi two days."

The pestilence seems at length to have abated at Panwell, where health is reported to be in some measure restored ; but it has transferred its ravages in fearful strength to Mahar, on the direct route to the Marbleshuwr Hills, whence it has, within three weeks past, been sweeping the population before it. Here 300 persons are said already to have suffered. Parties returning from the hills, in antici pation of the immediate setting-in of the monsoon, have, in traversing this district, not only experienced inconveniency, but incurred the extremest danger. On Saturday last, two gentlemen, belonging to a large party, were seized with cho lera, with all the customary symptoms of severest malignancy. Nothing would induce the hearers to remain within the reach of infection. They fled, leaving the palanquins and their passengers behind them. Most providentially, one of the patients was still able to he removed in a buggy which hap pened to be at hand ; and his life, in all probability, was saved by the conduct and kindness of its owner. Of the fate of the other patient, no intelligence has reached us. The ladies of the party were for a time carried forward on bullock garries, until the bearers were induced to return after the infected region waa believed to be past, and the passengers were car ried forward on such temporary structures as the materials and workmanship of the time permitted. At Mahar, the dead were said to he strewed around the precincts of the habitations of the living, who feared nothing so much as to approach the men for interment.—Bombay Times, June 3. It is not generally known that the Grand Cross of the Bath conferred upon the Duke of Wellington was vacated by the Major-General the Hon.

Wellesley (afterwards c Duke of Wait panion for his servic from Earl C after stating that General Lake to the d had been pleased to pity of the peerage, his lordship went on to say, that in consideration of the eminent and bril liant services of Major-General Wellesley, his Majesty had not only directed that the insignia of the Order should be forwarded to him; but that he should be created an extra Knight Companion of the Order; and that his creation and investiture should not wait for a succession to a regular va cancy therein. The Marluis of Wellington was accordingly authorised to invest him, or to appoint any other person so to do. in October 1835 (says Sir Harris Nicolas), the Order and the country lost one of its brightest ornaments, by the death of Lord Nelson, at Trafalgar, and, it is remarkable, that the greatest military should have succeeded the greatest naval commander of the age in the constituent number of companions. a w v; i gation, had ARCHIMEDES SCREW ON THE GLASGOW AND PAISLEY CANAL. — Mr. M`Dowall, engineer, Johnstone, who is about teee the va id d e e a . ~a nto to apply the Archimedean screw to canal plated the plan so far back as 1834, Wliowall abandoned, in Consequence ,of the increasede,i rived from the use of Mr. Houston's light gigs. ley Advertiser says—" The new demand for increased spee d a excited by railway operations, has caused the idea a be taken up, and it is just the same plan which Mr. brought into operation in 1834, that he now proposes to carry more fully out. The engine to be applied on this occasion is one of ten horse power; but neither it nor the boat are very well adapted to the experiment; nor are they suited to each other ; but they will serve to give a fair t rial on a f ull work ing scale, and, if found to answer, boats and engines will be made suited to each other. The space of the boat occupied by this trial will be somewhere about twenty feet , but with engines properly suited for the purpose not more than fifteen will be required. With respect to speed, we may state that a rate of fro m thirteen to fourteen miles an hour is confi dently Johnstone Glasgown , wh t 0 A b i e ll e m n a a d b e l e withinthe hour,between in cluding all stoppages. ' ontem It would appear, that " on the arrival of the Archduke Charles in that town there was a general illumination ordered, which attracted many peasants from the neighbouring vil lages ; amongst others was a fine young woman, who wore a handkerchief round her head. She was accosted by a Jew, who pulled off the handkerchief and ran away with it. She followed him, whom she considered a thief, to the Jews' quarter, where she suddenly found herself surrounded by a number of Jews, and from that time she was not heard of for some weeks, nor indeed until she appeared before the com missary of police to make a complaint, which had been trans mitted to the superior court at Lemberg." " This is the young woman's account. She has identified the Jewish surgeon who bled her, and the young woman who examined her person, and the cicatrice where she was bled is visible. The criminal court has not yet decided on the case. The young woman has no witnesses, and the accused declare that the charge is false." We have before us the details of a somewhat similar oc currence at Iwaniska, in the palatinate of Sandemir, in Poland, some years since, and transmitted to us with the foregoing, in which, however, the alleged victim was a Chris tian boy, three years old, and who had been murdered. The narrator, however, states a circumstance irreconcilable with the story given in the Leipsic Gazette, namely, that the par ties guilty of or accessory to the murder required that the victim should be of the male sex. _ _ She states, that " when she was surrounded by the Jews, she was dragged into a house, and thence into the cellar, where she was bathed in a vat. A Jewish surgeon then came, and having carefully examined her person, he bled her in the arm, and preserved the blood in a vase. This operation was repeated on several days. The young woman, having ob served that she was carefully examined by a female to see whether she had any wound, or stain, or blemish on her person, before the surgeon bled her, determined to cause one, which she did by rubbing her knee against the bathing tub in which they placed her. The next time the surgeon carne he saw the wound, and declared (according to the Jewish phraseology) that she was unclean, and on the same night she was carried to, and left n, the churchyerd; where she was found the following day. —Times. REMARKABLE INSTANCE OF LONGEVITT.--A corre spondent informs us, that there is at present residing on the townland of Donorci, county Kildare, a woman who is ascer tained to be 144 years of age ! At her marriage, her husband took a farm of 30 acres of land, leased at 31 years, on the ex piration of which it was again renewed. The family has re mained in the possession of the farm, which is occupied at present by the grandchildren with shorn she lives, and the fourth lease of thirty-one years expired on the 25th of March and the woman herself told me, that she was not Tess than twenty years of ar, when she married."—Drogheda Argus. MODERN BURIAL-PLACES.—The John Bull, who has al ways some good to say about modern inventions, observes— " The prettiest gardens now-a-days are the cemeteries. The French taste has overrun English decency, and the frippery and folly have invaded localities iu which, to a thinking Chris tian, they are odious, desecrating, and disgusting. The very idea of joint-stock cemeteries' (putting aside the absurdity of the decorations') is repulsive and abominable ; and to see these fantastical Golgothas advertised in the newspapers —` graves, so much ;" vaults, so much ;' with a beautiful and extensive prospect of the surrounding country;' omni buses every half-hour from the bank, sixpence inside;' why, it is enough to make one's blood run cold with horror." Hors:—We have not for a series of years past seen the hop plantations in so wretched a condition as at this moment. Even in the best grounds the show of hop is inconsiderable, and at the same time extremely partial. Many grounds will not produce a single pound's weight, and several plantations that last year brought a fair average crop, are to be cut down immediately the corn harvest is over. The picture our once luxuriant hop fields presented, is this year a desolate wilder ness. The duty is backed at very little over £40,000. Throughout East Kent the late sunny days has benefitted the healthy hops, and completely dried up the plants which were looking sickly. The duty will be very low for this dis -Kentish Gazette. trict AFFECTING STORY.—A recent letter from Omek, in Si beria, relates the following affecting tale :—A young woman, only 20, of striking beauty, and one of the most distinguished females in St. Petersburg, was condemned, three years ago, to labour in the mines for the rest of her life, for having, in a paroxysm of jealousy, killed her husband. Her youth and mildness of character induced the go v e rn or, instead of se n di ng her down into the mines, to appoint her one of the superin tendents of the hospital at Omek. Induced by the great pro priety of her conduct, the gover n o r p e titi one d, some ti me ago , for and obtained her pardon. On this being communicated to her, she was overcome with gloom, and, in a few days after, was discovered in her room lifeless, having opened her veins by means of a large nail. She left the following written on a card :—" Death for death! Human justice pardons me, but divine justice never can. God calls me to him whom I loved, whom I murdered, but whom I still love. Adieu! Pardon me ! Pray for me ! pray for me !"—French paper. RAILWAY ACROSS THE DUDDON, &C.—We continue to receive the most cheering accounts relating to the opening out of a line of communication from Fleetwood to Peel, and across the ,Duddon into West Cumberland. The projects meets with the decided approbation of many influential parties, and we feel very confident will quickly be carried out with spirit and success. There was a meeting at Fleetwood on Monday, at which Sir Hesketh Fleetwood, the directors of the Preston and Wyre Railway, the directors of the North Union Railway, several capitalists from London, and some gentlemen connected with the committee of the proposed Furness and West Cumberland Railway, were present ; and at which the project of embanking the Duddon, and carrying a railway to Whitehaven,-underwent a lengthened discussion, and was most warmly approved by all present. The tide of opinion, we are told, is completely with us ; and that, if we now fail in getting a railway southward, the fault will be mainly our own.— Whitenaven Herald. EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.—Last week Dr : Ha milton, of this city, extracted a large needle from the side of a man about 45 years of age. The patient from whom it was taken, on applying to the doctor, stated that he had some time previously received a severe fall, and from the pain he suffered, lie conceived that one of his ribs had been broken. The doctor, on examining the part, found it much swelled, and to the touch it appeared as if a portion of the lower rib had been fractured. The sufferer anxiously entreated him to open it, but the doctor, fearing that such an operation might be attended with danger, refused - to comply. He had re course, however, to poulticing and other treatment, and i n four days after, on examining it carefully, lie discovered the point of a needle protruding, and succeeded i n ex t r i ca ti ng it without subjecting the patient to any vi o l en t pain. 'The needle does not appear much worn, but is greatly disco loured, being quite black—it is very smooth, and sharp at the point, and is supposed to have been swallowed, probably in food, four or five years ago. the man, on its removal, .felt at once relieved, and is now perfectly recovered. He had been complaining for eleven weeks before it was extract ed, and latterly was scarcely able to move.—Derry Sentinel. THE BRITANNIA, SUPPOSED TO HAVE FOUNDERED AT SEA.—We are happy to inform our readers that some trace has at length been obtained of the ill-fated Britannia ; and though little hope can he entertained that any of the sufferers survive, it must be satisfactory to the relatives to know that every possible means has been used to ascertain their fate. We are indebted to the polite attention of Capt. Lewis, the harbour -master, for the following particulars. Captain L. says—" The master of the Curlew, just arrived from Sydney, informs me that he fell in with the revenue cutter Prince George, Capt. Moore, at Twofold Bay, which vessel had been despatched by the Sydney government in quest of the Britannia, in consequence of some of the aborigines having reported at Twofold Bay that they had seen a boat stranded on the Long or Ninety-mile Beach, and had observed the print of white men's feet in the sand. The cutter repaired to the spot. described by the natives, where Captain Moore found a boat washed up on the beach, with the name " Sarah of Sydney," painted on the stern; and the master's name M`Pherson, on the inside. This boat Mr. Stafford, the boarding officer at William's Town, identifies as having been sold to the Britannia shortly before she left on her ill-starred voyage." Since the above was in type, we have seen Captain Watson, of the Curlew, who has informed us of the following additional particulars :—The boat when found by Captain Moore, had a mast in it ; it seems probable, there. fore, that the brig had foundered at sea. and that the passen gers and crew had taken refuge in the boat, but whether they reached the shore in safety, or swamped at sea, it is impossi ble to decide.

We have, in consequence of the very favourable weather, expe rienced complete stagnation in this, and in all the country Corn markets of the past week, the millers and dealers having continued unwilling to increase the small stocks, arid transactions altogether have been so trivial that we cannot quote prices very correctly ; we believe purchases might have been made at about the following decline, 3d to 6d per 70 lb. on Wheat, Is tid to as per barrel on Flour, Id per 431 b. on Oats, Is per 2101 b. on Oatmeal, and Is per quarter on all other Grain. The duty on Wheat from Foreign ports was decreased.on Friday last one step, say to 13s fid per quarter, and to Os lid per harrel on Flour, and on Peas to 2s per quarter, no alteration on any other Grain ; on Friday next the duty on Wheat will be further reduced to lOs 8d per quarter and 6s ad per barrel; and on Friday the 21st instant, it is anticipated that it will be further reduced to 6s 8d per quarter, and to 4s per barrel; some few speculative purchases of both articles in bond have recently been made at about our last quotations. _ _ _ _ Our supplies of Wheat Coastviays, from London, and from Foreign ports, have been a little increased by a change of wind yesterday, and there has been a little rain during the past night, which must have been very beneficial. At this day's market the languor above quoted prevailed, and sales only to a very trivial extent were effected of every article in the trade, at the above mentioned decline.
