DINNER TO ADMiItAL SIR C. NAPIER, 'C.C.S.—
Admiral Sir C. Napier, K.C.8., being at present the guest
of Sir Thomas Livingstone, Bart., of Westqusrtcr, Stir-
lingsbire, it was resolved by the inhabitants of Falkirk to
entertain him at dinner, in honour of his distinguished ser-
vices anti also to mark the high respect in which he is held
by the peo;le of the district. The gallant Admiral is a
native of the county—Merchiston, situated on the north of
the Forth and Clyde Canal, being his birthplace, where he
spent the early years of his life. The dinner came off on
riday afternoon, in the lied Lion Hotel, Falkirk, when
upwards of a hundred gentlemen were present. The chair
was occupied by Provost Adam, and the vice-chair by
James Russell, Em jun., banker, who were severally sup-
ported by Sir C. -Napier, Mr. Baird, M.P., Mr. Sheriff
Robertson, H.! Salmon, of Bonnyside, the Earl of
ictland, Colonel Dundas, &e.

WRECK ON TUE GOODWIN SANDS.—The loggers
which came into the harbour on Friday afternoon reported
a fearful lose, in the course of the night, on the north end
of the Goodwin Sands. At daybreak a wreck of a large
yowl was discovered on the Sands, fast breaking up. Her
masts were broken off close to the deck, and part of her
stern was gone. From fragments which wore afterwards
picked up there is reason to believe that the ill-fated ship
was the Edward and Sophia, from the north, for Southend.
Of the crew nothing has been heard, and we fear they have
all met with a watery grave.
STAFF APPOINTMENTS AND RETIREMENTS.—Cap.
taiu Hamilton' 71st Regiment, has lately become one of the
aides-decamp to the Governor-General of North America.
Lieut.-Col. Pritchard, unattached, has resigned the office of
Assistant Adjutant-General at Montreal. Captain Dick,
43rd Foot, has ceased to be aide-de-camp to the Gavernor

ment, has been appointed Fort Adjutant at Trinidad. Cap-
tain Gordon, 59th Regiment, has been appointed aide-de-
camp to Major-General Staveley, at Bumbay. Captain
Maude, of the 3rd Buffs, has been appointed aide-de-camp
and assistant military secretary to Lieut.-Gen. Ellice, the
acting Governor of Malta.
ADULTERATION OF CHICORY AND COFFEE.--The
Lewd of Saturday continues its publication of the reports
of the Analytical and Sanitary Commission on chicory and
coffee, and its adulteration.. The names of the persons
from whom the samples have been procured aro omitted,
exe:pt iu the case. of-proprietary articles. The conclu-
sion deduced from the analyses of 54 specimens of chicory
and coffee is, that out of the 18 samples of chicory procured
from manufactories, 5 were adulterated with roasted flour—
that several of the wimples yielded coloured ash ; and that
out of the 16 samples of chicory purchased at the establish-
ments of different grocers in the metropolis, one only was
adulterated with roasted farina. The ashes of several of
the !ample% were also coloured. Out of the 20 samples of
coffee submitted to examination, 19 were adulterated with
chicory.
PARDON TO AN ARTIST REBEL—A letter from
Zurich states that the King of S izonv has granted a full

who was coadenined by default to a long imprisonment, for
takinfrkpart in the insurrection of Dresden, is 1649, and who

;maiden of M. Liszt, the Grand Duke of Size Weimar has
just charged M. Wapner to set td music a grand new opera
in five acts, called " Young Siegfried," the subject of
which is borrowed front the Bautdiawsian Sagas.
