Mssmnatisx.—lt will be seen from an advertise-
ment in another column, that Miss Annie De
Montford, a lady who a short time: since gave a
lengthy series of very successful, Mesmgric enter-
tainments in Birmingham, will give the perfor-
mances in the Corn Exchange during the .week.
The Birmingham press speaks very highly of her
ability as a professor of the above pecular science,
and we have no doubt that those who visit the Corn
Exchange, to witness her performance will be both
a musedand instructed.

CHESS MATCH.—On Saturday last a match *as
played at Stourbridge, between eleven of the
Stourbridge Church of England Association and
an equal number of the Wolverhampton Church of
England Association. After a pleasant and well
contested game, the Stourbridge players proved
the victors. • Stourbridge being.l4 to the Wolver-
hampton 10, 4 being drawn.

he agreed he was to hate ..t2 2s per week, and give or

Is for his son, who was engaged at another engine.
No agreement was made for 14 dal s' notice, but the
