September, 1853?) A STRANGE Fisn.—On Wednesday morning, while a lad was dabbling in the mud under George's Pierhead, he was terrified at a voracious attack made upon him by one of those uncouth monsters of the deep known amongst sailors as a " devil-fish," which strove hard to appease its hunger by a tit-bit from the lad's bare legs. The young ster, however, was nimble of foot ; and, some boatmen coming to the rescue, the fish was speedily taken captive. STEAMERS FOR THE BRAZILS.—The new screw steamer Olinda, Captain Haram, one of the vessels recently built for the Smith American and General Steam Navigation Company. arrived in the Mersey, on Friday, from the Clyde. The Olinda was built by Messrs. John Reid and Co., of Pcrt Glasgow ; and as she is of the same dimen sions and power as the Braziliera, built by Mr. Laird, of Birkenhead, it will be interesting to see who can turn out the best vessel. The Olinda will go into the Birkenhead Dock to nceive cargo for the Brazils and River Plate, for which places she will take her departure on Saturday week. THE A3NUAL COONTY SESSIONS were held at Preston, on Thursday, the Ven. Archdeacon Brooks in the chair.

The Clerk of the Peace announced that he had received a notification that there was a vacancy in the office of surgeon of Lancaster Castle. The amount of salary was fixed at £BO. The public accounts were allowed after some further conversation respecting the cost of " the Ramshay feed," which it was finally decided is to be paid out of the rate. After a prOtest by Colonel Austen against investing the superannuation fund in any thing but the public funds, the following resolution was passed :—" That at the request of the magistrates of the Kirkdale division, the sum of £7OO be advanced out of the County Constabulary Superannuation Fund, on security of the rates of the Kirkdale police division, at 44 per eettum per annum, for the purpose of erecting apolice station at Garston, for the use of the said division."

Mr. Gladstone hoped the borough engineer would soon favour them with a report , of the cost which they were put to by the gas company. If the £253,000 spoken of in the Council on the-previous day, was applied'for the purchase, or part purchase of the gas works, anal'ihey could get them under their - control, with the assistance of the borough engineer, no doubt they would be enabled to supply the toWnwith gas at a very small cost.—A communication was' - rcad from the Rev. George Dover, calling attention to the state of Kirk dale, where a large population had been43rought by the new do&s, and praying that it might be-tarveyed with a view td'being sewered.

Lister, one or m the edical officers, to reade at the fever hospitaL Mr.i.Farnall stated that the Poorr , law Board had otherwise they would have met the views of th .uardians the matter could not be managed in a waysatisfactory to all parties. After speaking of Mr. Lister as a valuable officer, he added that, before the new hospital could be made efficient, it would require a better staff of officers than they had at present. He would suggest sx hether, supposing they coniti arrange with Mr. Lister to obtain a qualified assistant, who should act as surgeon, and be master of the house, eay at a salary of £3oper annum.with -"rations, that would meet the object the board had in view. :lifter some discussion, 3fr. Lister was called in, •and said it was probable he could get such a man for £4O or £5O per annum with rations ; ; ,and he added that, if he relieved him, he had no objection to allow him something out,of his.own salary. A committee was then appointed to re port upon the subjeet to the next meeting.—Mr. Brown, the government inspector of schools, attended the boarO, and stated the result of an examination of the three schools attaelted to the Workhouse. 'The infant school was in a very satisfactory state, and creditable to the teachers; but the boys and girls' schools were not equally so. There was one point to which he wished to call attention, and which he tegretted to have to remark upon, and that was the large :lumber of children who absconded, amongst them some of the pupil teachers. Ie suggested that West Derby should.crect a similar establishment to the Kirkdale Industrial Schools, but the proposition was not enter tained.—The office recently held by Mr. Stanfield Deane, as medical officer, having become vacant, it was agreed that the necessary steps .be taken to appoint a successor. —The contracts for provisions, &c., for the workhouse and hospital, being about to expire, the clerk was instructed to issue the usual advertisements for fresh tenders. EXTRAORDINARY COE.— On Friday, at the Police Court, Agnes Morris, 0. respectably dressed woman, was charged with picking a lady's pocket, in Bold-street, on Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Theresa Rebecca Smith, from Stoke, Staffordshire, who Is staying at Seacombe, stated that, In company with two other ladies, she was looking in at a shop window, in Bold street, when she felt some one pull her shawl. She turned round and saw the Prisoner standing beside her, and immediately missed her purse, which contained £1 12s. 81 She felt so satisfied the prisoner was the person who had robbed her, that, along with her friends, she followed her through the Arcade into Renshaw-street, where the latter went into a shop. On her coming out again, Mrs. Smith taxed Morris with having her purse, which the latter who was much excited, admitted, and gave it u p. Mrs. Smith, at the earnest appeal of the prisoner, was inclined to let her go, but her friends called a policeman and she was given into custody. Mrs. Smith, in reply to the magistrates, said the money appeared to have been disturbed, as a sovereign was taken out of one end and put among the silver. The prisoner acknowledged the crime, but said it was her first offence, and begged hard for mercy. She stated that she followed the business of an embroideress, at St. Alban's and had only come to town the d a y b e f ore, having been induced to accompany a gentleman, who had since de serted her. Not having any resource s t o get back again, she had been tempted to commit the cr i me. The magi:_ ' trate said 'he saw no reason to doubt h er s t ory, b ut her disgraceful position had arisen through her having trans gressed in the first instance, and she must go to prison for two months. The prisoner was removed, sobbing bitterly. She was evidently a novice, from the clumsy manner iu which she had performed the theft.‘ THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL Mr. JAMES DOUGLAS KELLY, of Liverpool, and MT John Holmes Jephson, of Birkenhead, pass minations on the science and pi' heir exa to Mr. Clark( examination of pupils belonging . academy took place on Tuesday, in the presence of a number of the parents and friends of the pupils, and we understand the display was most gratifying as indicative of the successful modes of tuition adopted by the teacher.

THE SOVEREIGN OF THE SEAS.—On Wednesday this celebrated clipper took her departure from the Mersey, for Australia.

AN ABSCONDING APPRENTICE.--011 'Thursday, John Bowen, a shipwright's apprentice, was charged under the following circumstances : Mr. Batchelor, his master, stated that About twelve months ago he gave the prisoner money •and goods to the value of £l4, and sent him from Cardiff for Liverpool, with_orders to ship in the Regent, a vessel bound for California: Since that time he had seen nothing of him, but had ascertained that he did not pro ceed-in the ship. Being in Liverpool on business; he met the prisoner the previous day, :in the neighbourhood of the docks, and gave him into tmstody. The prisoner said that when he arrived at Bristol he could find no con veyance to Liverpool, and he 4as detained there until the Regent had sailed. As the case was one which could only , be decided by the magistrates at Cardiff, the prisoner was .ordered to be removed thither in custody. HEALTH OF THE TOVV:N.—The medical officer of health reports that the deaths , from all causes registered in the borough of Liverpool during the week ending September 3 were 181. The past week gives three cases less of deaths from diarrhoea than the previous, and 7 less than in the corresponding week or any year since 1848 ; of those who died during the past week 35 were infants and•childrea. Typhus fever caused:three deaths, scarlatina 2, measles 2, disease of the lungs 31, smallpox 1. One 'death Thom cholera was registered last week. This was the .case alluded to by Di. "Duncan in his last report. Since 'then three fatal cases had occurred ; two in the same haxse as the first-mentioned, the third in the Emigrants' Home, Moorfields. In all those cases the sufferers were German emigrants, recently arrived from the continent, and no doubt they were suffering from the disease inssoue of its stages prior to their arrival in Liverpool. gIiRiWZDORY AND BIBMINGRA.M RAIL'WWF.—ID com pliance with a circular issued by Mr. Joseph Scott, of Stourbridge. a meeting of the shareholders in. the above line was held in the George Hotel, Dale Street, on Thurs day, Mr. Elias Arnaud in the chair. After a few pre liminary.Aservations from the chairman, 11:r. Scott pro ceeded to detail at length the whole -circumstances of the dispute :between the directors and a great part of the shareholders, on the question of amalgamation with either the London and North-western, or the Great Western lines. Referring to the , late -dispute, which has resulted in the company's books having been handed over to the:custody of the police,-31r. Seott , said the directors were to blame for not knowing that such fraudulent transactions were going on in their office. He charged thoalirectors with acting in such a manner that the share ' holders were fraudulently prevented frau recording their votes at a late meeting. He believed the company had been entirely sacrificed in consequence of its mismanage ment, and he charged the directors with ruining their property. The directors had surreptitiously put a clause in their act of parliament that no...person was eligible to be a director, unless he gave wnotice a certain time pre vious to the election at their office. He thought that, if they passed that clause, they would': have it all their own sway. He believed if this clause had not been discovered fit was the intention of the directors to call a meeting on the earliest day possible in-August, that they might take "them by surprise, and elect whoir they chose—directors hostile to their (the shareholders') interests. A meeting had been held at Wolverhampton, and the directors re . . quested to call a meeting •at once; but, instead of doing so, they were putting it off till ithe end of September. They were making use of this time in going to the Great Western Company, to try .and make an arrangement with them ; but he (Mr. Scott) warned the shareholders that, if the line passed into the hands of that company, they . would never get a return fortheir capital. He called upon any gentleman who was. favourable to an alliance with the Great Western to .point out whether it was likely that any agreement with that company would he, carried out properly by a .board . directors like •the pre. sent. • He did not tldnk welt °fa competition between the two great companies. No line -.could be worked indenen- dentiy better than theirs. People might talk aboutil; amount of through !traffic to .Liverpool and Birkenhead that would be brought if they had an arrangement with either of the. companies ; hut - Aheir home traffic, if pro perly managed, was a much •better traffic, in consequence of the excellent districts with , which their line was con nected. He concluded hy . movitw, the following resolu-, tion :—" That this txteeting is:of epinion that the question of amalgamation, .or a .traffic :arrangement with either the Great Western or the Londerrand North-western Railway Company, should not be entertained until after the general half-yearly meeting, when_ mew directors will have to he elected; and this meeting :farther resolves to support at that meeting the election of-4meh directors only as will pledge themselves mot to enter into any agreement with either company except on thet terms of a guaranteed divi dend of four per cent. per,annum." The motion Ives seconded by Dr. Bickersteth,..and after . some discussion was carried unanimously. Several proxies were handed in to that gentleman to beamed-at the half-yearly meeting at his discretion; and, after thanks to the chairman, the meeting separated. GENERAL A.

In the private audience, which Mgr. Gonella obtained, in order to present this precious relic, his Royal Highness was much affected at the present made to him by the Pope." DREADFUL ACCIDENT.-A blacksmith, named Wind mill, was employed, a few days since, at the ironworks of Mr. William Haden, near Dudley, in assisting to raise a large vessel called a ladle, containing four tons of molten iron. The ladle was overturned, and the liquid iron flowed over him, and so burned him that he died shortly afterwards. THE HON. Mats. NonroN.—The Times of Thursday contains a letter from Mr. Norton, in reply to that by his wife. Friday's paper contains a final rejoinder by Mrs. Norton, in which she thus concludes the correspondence : —"And now I will answer Mr. Norton no more. There is no story so false, no scandul so foul, that it shall wring from me any further reply. I have too strong a faith in English justice to deem further reply necessary." SIIICIDE.—Two men, Thompson and Jackson, were arrested for a burglary in Pall-mall, London. Thompson was remanded by the .Marlborough -street magistrate ; but Jackson had committed suicide at the station-house he wrenched an irou tip from the heel of his boot, and with this had divided the arteries of his arm, so that he had bled to death ha the cell. EITINCTION Or BARTHOLOMEW FAIR.-011 PRESday, the saint's 'bell of St. Bartholomew the Great sounded the expiring knell of Bartholomew fair, which is now actually abolished, after having existed for 750 years, the charter having been granted in the year 1133.

A MOST EXTRAORDINARY Prs'n was caught in the salmon net of Mr. Hazlett Hal/Alton, of Bundoran, in the Donegal Bay, last week. It is aheautiful creature—the head, shoulders, and waist resemble a woman ; the lower part that of a salmon. When w saw it, it was alive in a vessel of salt water, and Mr. Hamilton hoped to preserve it alive in that way. The eyes were beautiful—its arms when touched became stiff, and the whole body appeared sensitive to the touch. Many persons considered it a young mermaid.—Bakyskannon -Perald. THE DETECTIVES. —A 'remarkable instance of sagacity occurred last week. A London clerk, named Revin, ab sconded wits £3OO. A detedive examined his lodgings, and found in them , a 'PertaAaw, Examining it closely, he noted that attlie poidtinarking the departure of the; 11.30 tram from London - to Paris, the page was turned down, and'thenote of thearrival of the boat at Lille wts similarly narked.

LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. ON Tuesday and Wednesday last, the sixth annual cattle show and trial of implements of this society took place at Warrington. The first day was devoted to the trial of implements, particularly to the operations of the various reaping machines, to which public attention has of late been so much attracted. These experiments took place ill several fields occupied by Mr. Warburton, at Bewsey-hall, and they were applied on . wheat, oats, and second-crop clover. The result of the experiments was reportedby the judges as not entirely satisfactory, and instead of awarding the prize - to either of the competing machines, they recom mended that it should be divided between the two. It was also remarked that, to ensure success in the application of reaping. machines, it would be requisite to attend to the preparation of the land in the first instance, with a view to the use of those machines. CATTLE AND. IMPLEMENT snow. Wednesday being the day set apart for exhibiting live stock and implements, the town of Warring its vicinity was in a state of bustle tou and and excitement from an early liour in the morning. • The show-yard, which was closely adjoining the railway station, was opened to the public at 10 o'clock, and from that hour and throughout the day it presented a gay and animated appearance, the ground being crowded by spectators of both sexes, in holiday attire. In the yard the collection of animals entered for competition or as extra stock was large, and admittedly superior, as a whole, to any which has been exhibited under the auspices of this society. Besides the stock of horses, horned cattle, sheep, and pigs, there was also an extensive collection of poultry, which attracted much .attention, and excited great interest among the spectators, particularly the ladies. The agricultural produce, seeds and vegetables, were likewise favoura bly looked on, and met with much commendation. In connexion with these latter classes of entries, we under stand that Messrs. Dickson and Co., seedsmen, of Man chester and Chester, forwarded a collection of choice seeds for -exhibition, which were entered at page 4 of the catalogue ; but, in consequence of some misarrangement on the part of the railway company, the seeds were not delivere r 4 till too late for exhibition, in compliance with the regulations, and they were therefore with held from the show. The implements were numerous and well arranged for display ; and conspicuous among them were many excellent specimens, the manufacture or inven tion of individuals or firms immediately, or almost imme diately connected with Liverpool. A lift-pump, or liquid manure spreader, manufactured by Messrs. Forshaw and Co., of Liverpool, attracted much attention, on account of its efficacy, and the ease with which it can be worked. In addition to its capabilities as a liquid manure spreader, it seems well adapted for the purposes of a portable fire engine; two men being able to project a powerful stream of water, by its agency , to a distance of about seventy feet. The feed-pipe of this apparatus is of corrugated gutta percha, and is said to possess peculiar advantages of an important kind. This lift-pump seems also suited for use in cases of fire on ship-board. The same gentlemen ex hibited a number of other useful implements, including a novelty in the form of a malt or oat crusher. Messrs. Richmond and Chandler, of Liverpool, Manchester, and Salford, exhibited a number of first-class implements, in- eluding a chaff-cutter, commended by the members of the Royal Agricultural Society ; and another, which took the prize of the Royal Agricultural Society, of the Royal North Lancashire Agricultural Society, of the Royal Agricultural Society of Ireland, and for six years at the shows of the Liverpool and Manchester Society. They also exhibited a root-washer, cheese-pressers, made by Messrs. Theidles and Griffiths, much approved by the cheese-makers of space prevents us from entering' at greater length into their collection. Turnip graters and slicers were nume rous, embracing one novelty in the shape of a grater, and a model of a cinder-drain, from Ireland, whence improve ments in agricultural implements or processes have not generally been looked for. Mr. Whitehead, of Preston, ex hibited-a thrashing machine ;an ingenious, though simple, turnip slicer ; a root, or chaff-steaming apparatus, of great compactness. He showed, also, some neat ploughs and heavy harrows, Besides those enumerated, there was also a very complicated collection of improved implements, by numerous well-known makers. A tent was devoted to the reception of glass vessels and implements, including various articles for dairy and horticultural purposes, This collection attracted much attention, and was crowded throughout the day. The poultry show was, as has been already stated, extensive, and embraced specimens of most of the favourite breeds. Among them were beautiful re presentatives of the Dorking; black, and silver Spanish ; Bolton grays; Bantams of much beauty of symmetry and plumage; and Cochin Chinas were also in great force, and of various degrees of excellence. There was likewise a choice collection of geese and chicks, of different kinds. The entries for exhibition amounted to 545, and the specimens were forwarded by 136 exhibitors. The stock consisted of 245 animals, of which 61 were horned cattle, 87 were horses, 67 were sheep, and 50 were pigs. Of the latter class of animals there were some admirable sped mens, both as regards symmetry and fat. The horse were generally good and received deserved comurndo'' I -- " dr the course of the day upwards of £2OO Was taken for admission to the show-yard, and among the distin guished visitors we observed the Right Hon. the Earl of Derby, who manifested a lively interest in the show.

He moved a resolution to this effect, and which embraced also the re duction of the passing fees. Mr. BRADLEY moved that the matter be again referred to the Finance Committee, and, on the vote being taken, the amendment was lost by 33 to 14. The purchase from Mr. Svvarbrick was sanctioned by the Council. It was understood that all the recommendations, except those relating to Messrs. Brade and Kaye, were to stand over for a month, according to standing orders. Ultimately, after some discussion, the recommendations were confirmed. Mr. Hounric explained that the deputation had come to an arrangement with the Woods and Forests, whereby the foreshore at Birkenhead would be secured to the Council indisputably, on payment of £4OOO. The Fmance Committee's general proceedings were then confirmd, as were those:also of the Watch Committee. TEMPERANCE PROCESSION.—The Maros read a letter from the Secretary of State, approving the conduct which his worship and his brother magistrates had taken in reference to the temperance procession. Door PROCEEDINGS.—The Dock Committee proceed ings were confirmed, the Chairman 'congratulating the COuntil on the facilities which would 'be afforded by the new Customs Bill in checking frauds. He explained that the baggage warehouse could not be erected until the position of the new Landing-stage, for sea-going steamers, Vas decided upon.—The 3.favos said that Sir William Mitt was preparing plans for the stage, which would be 'ready shortly. TOWN IMPROVEMENTS.---The Improvement Committee recorded recommendations to apply to Parliament for powers to widen Hatton-garden ; to make a new street from North John-street to the front of St. George's-hall, and to make the high bevel alteration of Shaw's-brow, shown by the plan proposed by the surveyor, and referred to in the report of the Improvement Committee of the 30th September, 1852. In consideration, however, of the urgent recommendation from the c omm ittee appointed at the recent town's mating to postpone the consideration of the new street, it was agreed to reconsideethe improve ment question at a special meeting in a fortnight. It was elicited that the cost of the proposed new street would be £235,700. The proceedings of the Markets, Education, Gaol and House of Correction, and Town:hall Establish ment Committees were then confirmed. HEALTH COMMITTEE': ME. LANGSDAIE AND MB. Fsurirrionan.--Tire proceedings of the Health Committee comprised : 1. Recommendation to increase the salary of Mr. James Neviiands, Borough Engineer, from £7OO to £l,OOO per annum; and a subs-equireat resolution recom mending such 'increase to be from £7OO to £BOO per an num. 2. Recommendation, to increase 'the salary of Mr. C. Davies, Assistant Local Surveyor, from £3OO to £350. The resolution if confid ence i n M r. Langsdale also formed a portion of the proceedings. The proceedings having been read, Mr. Dovra,- deputy-charman of if;e 'Health Committee, said, when Name into this room Iwas prepared to ex pect, on the part of several gentlemen who have unfortu nately mixed themselves up with events of the last Council, certain - concessions ; but T find that no proceed ings of the ',kind have taken place, and I am almost tempted to go somewhat out of mrway, because I am commissionecrby a gentleman, who is now absent (allud ing to Mr. LaNgsdale), owing to family afflictions. prepared to - make an admission and a , concession, though that gentleman, perhaps, in order, was not the first to offend, be is not unwilling to be the first to apologise. The .MA:ron. -I have - not the slightest hesitation in saying that the whole subject was to me a matter of the deepest regret, and I take some blame to myself—and I do so frankly and openly—that I did not, as the chairman of this couneil, • require an apology from both the gentle men, for both used language which I-eunsidcred was not justifiable. fI was, however, not willing to interrupt the full mid fair freedom of debate, nor do I think that a chairman lias a right to anticipate what gentlemen may be .goingLio say, although I did feel that it was very likely something of a personal nature would have oc curred. I -think, as Mr. Dover is nos' prepared, on the part of Mr-Langsdale, t- - ;the o wi, ~.,raw an expression mash ase of by Mr. Langsdale, which was notSjustified, whether called f0r0r , 324t, by the words which fell from Mr. Fer nihough, •-is not necessary for me to give an opinion; but I am satisfied of this, from what.has occurred be tween Mr. Fernihough and myself, tha if Mr. Langs dale is impart(' to withdraw that expression, I am sure Mr. Fernihough, in a spirit. of generosity, and for the purpose of rblieving this Council and myself from an un pleasant situation, and one which causes me very deep regret,—l am sure Mr. Fernihough will, in the same spirit, respond and express likewise his regret that any thing of the sort-should, unwittingly, and in the heat of argument, have-taken place. A 30- g pause ensued.—Mr. Ferniliong4whe sat at the foot of the long table, neither rose nor spoke. The _Mirou.—lf not, then we must go on with the proceeding Mr. DOVER then , proposed that the salary ,of Mr. New lands be increased;'from £7OO to £BOO per•unnum. Mr ed, as an amendment, that the salary be increased hy £3OO, making it £l,OOO a-yealb. After a good deal of discussion, the amendment was carriedrby 24 to 20 The increase of Ilr..Davies's salary was sanctioned with out opposition. HENDERSON It _ GSDALE DISPUTE. Mr. Dor= observed that he never felt himlklf placed in a more difficult situation. I almost wish (he,eaid) that I could use an 'influence which I do not possess over a gentleman near: me. Some people will say, I dare say, that I have gone rather too far already, and somewhat compromised the dignitynnd character of a gentleman we all know and respect, as vof.ll as that of the Health .Com mittee. lam Almost inclined to sit down again, to give the gentleman an • opportunity—[The speaker here sat down.

Ti 'appear.: to me tube the duty of the Council. to ascertain that no resolu tions are placed upon the books of any of its committees whichii,oierfere in any way withits.ewll..functions. I am quite Sure that, in recording that resolution, the Health Committee did not intend thus to infringe ; and I am equally certain, if we. allow the resolution to remain on the books, we shall sanction the right to canvass the pro .c.?edings of the Council, and to enter into the discussion pof questions of order which can only with propriety be de tided by ourselves. If we allow. the Health 'Committee thus to intsrfeite with our functions, we shall'be establish ing a very injurious precedent, and for that reason, with out going into the question of the recent quarrel, I move that the resolution of the Health Committee lie not confirmed. Mr. BANNER seconded the motion. Tut; MAron.—When I saw that resolution of the .com mittee, it was clear to my mind that the Health Committee were unquestionably departing from the usual course. It is not usual for any committee to refer to what has taken place in the Council, and this resolution would amount to nothing, without it was (confirmed by the Council. I think the mistake has been here. If the gentlemen form ing the Health Committee, fn their individual capacity, had expressed their opinion of Mr. Alderman Langsdale's character, and had chosen to send it to him, it would have been perfectly right ; but I think it would be introducing a precedent -extremely dangerous for any committee to put resolutions upon their proceedings which came after wards to be discussed by the Council. I was, therefore, exceedingly desirous for the Health Committee to have expunged that resolution, and I now suggsst, and ask the members of the Health Committee to consent to its with drawal from their proceedings, and thus remove what I believe to be the bar to Mr. Fernihough making that apo logy which he authorised me to say he would make if it was removed. After a discussion, in which Mr. Beckwith, Mr. Bighorn, Mr. Holt, Mr..Picton, and Mr. Gladstone took part, The MAYOR took the votes on the motion of Mr. Hornby, that the proceedings of the committee be con firmed, with the exception of the resolution in regard to the chairman. The motion was carried by 25 to 13. Mr. FERNIIIOUGII then rose.—l congratulate this Council (he said) upon the firmness they have shown in preventing a precedent being established, that I believe would be fraught with the most serious injury to the _ future conduct and character of the Council. That I haie been the instrument of that firmness being maintained,,is to me one of the most painful circumstances that ever occurre d in my life; and had this censure been a matter T llv4rnp Ceixias.—The best bull of any short-horned breed, above two and under four years old, Mr. R.

Two BOATS belonging to the new steamer ;Bengal, which left Southampton, on the 25th alt„ for the Cope and India, have been‘washed ashore at Weymouth. As a portion of the davits are attached to the boats, it is evident that they had been washed away by a sea. A DESTRUCTIVE FIER occurred on Saturday morning at the extensive factories and buildings. of Messrs. Russell and Co., ironAhipbuilders and engineers, Mill-wall Poplar, as also the establishment of Messrs. Napier, engineers, of the same place. IRON LIGHWOUSE.—A new cast-iron lighthouse, in ,fendpa for the Falkland Islands , loos just been co . hated Messrs. H. and M. D. Grissell, of London.

The Rhadamanthus struck the merchantman obliquely about the mizen chains, her bowsprit grazing the Miele length of her side. The vessel, however, appeared to have sus tained little damage, for she continued her course, al though the steamer followed her for an hour and a half, firing guns and signal lights. POOR NEEPLEWOMEN.—A large number of sempstresses employed at the most inferior description of under cloth ing have at length refused to work for the miserable pit tance doled out to them ; female waistcoat makers, and those employed in slop clothing, have also turned out for an advance of wages ; and the tailors, cap makers, and others employed in the large exporting houses, have made a demand for an increase of pay, alleging that the advance that has taken place in the prices of bread, meat, coals, and other necessaries requires that a proportionate ad vance should be made in their pay. CHOLERA AT NEWCASTLE.—Between twenty and thirty cases of Asiatic cholera have occurred in Newcastle and the immediate neighbourhood within the last few days, all terminating fatally. It appears to have broken out at a place called Bill Quay, on the south bank of the Tyne, towards Shields, the first case reported being that of a woman residing there, who was seized on Thursday week, and died the day following, shortly after she had been brought to Newcastle. Since then five more cases have occurred at Bill Quay. Diarrhoea is very prevalent in the district. POSTAGE STAISPS.—There is a provision in the new Stamp Act (16th and 17th Vict., cap. 59) which will take effect from the 10th of next month, to facilitate the pur chase of postage stamps or stamped envelopes without a license. It is provided by the 15th section that the Post master-General, in writing, may authorise and appoint any person in the service of the Post-office to sell postage stamps at any particular house or place to be specified for that purpose ; and also any messenger or other person employed in the delivery of letters sent by post to carry about for sale and to sell at any place postage stamps ; and all such persons shall during the, period that such authority and appointment shall remain unrevoked, without any license, be at liberty to sell at any house or place specified, or, if authorised, to carry about postage stamps, and shall Rot be liable to any penalty or forfeiture.. procured was conveyed 11031E0 .1A a chaise helor William Sadler, when a gurgeou Was .sent for found. that two . of her ribs i - f* . e, broken, b+ great paiu from the stingsof the wasps. ,e hildrelkwere also considerabl aceident.--Essez.

FALL OP A HOUSE IN THE STRAND.—A most ;alarming accident happened shortly after .8 o'clock on Thursday morning, by the fallingof a four-story house in the occupa tion of Mr. Thompson, situatein the Strand, at the north west angle of Arundel-street, London, ,by which three-of the inmates—consisting ,of .Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, and a young man, their shopman--lost their lives. The building has long been in a tottering•condition, through the pull big down of the adjoining premises, on the site of which the ground was being excavated, preparatory to erecting some large building. The excavators, it is supposed, partly :undermined the gable end wall of Mr. Thompson's pre mises. To that cause is the accident attributed. Mr. Thompson, with his shopman, were engaged in the shop at the time; and without the least warning the walls were een to collapse, and, w ith th e roo f, f a ll sinw adds, with p it p i ss a ers b loud crash. crash. It was near l y th ree h ours before the sufferers were got out ; they were shockingly mutilated„ and seemed to have been crushed to death. The servant girl had gone into the cellar under the pave ment, when the next moment the house fell in, but the arching of the cellar preserved her life; she was extricated in the course of an hour, and was found not the least in jured. Part of the gable end wall fell outwards upon some labourers engaged in the excavations adjoining the build ing, and one named Roe had both thighs broken, besides other injuries. TREASURES OF NATURE.—It has been well remarked, that there is not an imperfection that tie,h is heir to, for which remedy is not at hand, to discover which we have only to search the vast laboratory of Nature. A more apt illustra tion can scarcely be 'offered, than in the application of a natural production, of Ameri can growth, namely the BALM or COLUMBIA, in cases w h ere the human head has b een deprived of its becoming and natural ornament. As a_pro moter of growth, strethener and res t orer of the Hair, C. and A. OLDRIDOE'S BALM or CoLumnrk, is unrivalled, and in cases of baldness its virtues are inestimable. The further advantages of the Balm may be summed up in its freeing the hair from scurf, producing a beautiful curl, pre serving it from premature greyness, and its excellent adapta tion to the nursery, whi c h sliould never be without it, no climate destroys its efficacy, anti it has proved a most valuable article of .trading speculation.

He corroborated the remarks made by Mr. Sutton, as to the good understanding which existed between them in the performance of their ministerial duties in the district. Mr. IRELAND, one of the churchwardens, moved a vote of thanks to the Rev. Mr. Sutton, which was seconded by Mr. Br owiv, and carried with acclamation. Mr. J. M.
