FREE Lscrunrs.—The Rev. J. Baldwin Brown,
8.A., gave an interesting and instructive lecture on "The
Early English Voyagers in the Arctic Seas," list Monday
evening, in the lecture-room of Clayland Chapel, Claphamo
-
road, The lecturer commeoced by briefly alluding to th
discoveries of Columbus and Amerigo Vetpseci, and then
went on to describe the voyages of Sebastian Cabot duriag
the reign of Hoary VIII. ; the disastrous voyage of Sir
Hugh Willoughby in 1553, when himself and hie crew were
frozen to death; and the several expeditions which were
sent out under the command of Sir Martin Frobisher, in
the time of Elizabeth, for the purpose of discovering a
shorter pump to the East lodise. This lecture formed
the second of a series of Monday evening lectures to the
working cleans to be 'fives in the above room during the
winter.
THE EXHIBITIONS IN BIRMINGHAM NEST WEEIL
The annul exhibitions in Birmingham, which surest so
much attention, will be held during the ensuing week ; the
cattle and poultry show, in Single, Hall, mid the exhibition
of sporting and other dogs, in the new Carson Hall, open-
ing en Monday next. The prey/dimes of disease amongst
stock has been a sourer, of considerable anxiety to
the promoters of exhibitions this year, bat, neverthe-
less, the entries do not appear to have fallen off mate-
rially. For the Birmiogham Show the number of cattle
entered has been 135, hut come of these Imre been since
withdrawn. Aa respects the other divisions of the show, she
prospects are entirely satisfactory. There are 90 entries
of sheep—a much larger number than on several recent
occasions, and above the average amount ; while in respect
to pigs, the catalogue will contain a list of wearily-one pens.
In the department for corn, forty-five entries have been
made ; end, although the season which has just dosed has
not been propitioas for roots, the judges will have to decide
upon the respective merits of no fewer than 110 different
lota. In other parts of the building the various clues' will
be amply filled. The feathered tribes will rooster in greater
force than usual, for the total of the pats, of poultry will
be 1,676, and of pigeons 3sl, the latter display being the
largest of the kind which has yet been witnessed. To all
these the implements, leedinens' stands. &c., must be added,
and when thins is clone. we have a bill of fare which can
scarcely fail to untidy the reasonable expectations of every
clam of visitors. The exhibition of sporting sod other dogs
appeals likely to prove highly interesting. The entries
are nearly 800 in Dumber, and all the leading breeds will
be exceedingly well represented. Some changes have this
year been made in the prize lista, the moat imortap nt of
which is the introduction of chasm for pens of four grey-
hound. pointer, setter, retriever, sod spaniel puppies. the
entries being two perm of greyhounds, twelve of pointers,
eight et setters, six d retrievers, rind eight of 'pedals.
The fruit sad chrysanthemum exhibition, in the Town
Hall, which has sew become nee of the permanest attests

next, the 2nd of December, and will does on Tuesday
evening, the Sob. We may add that the usual liberal
arrangements for special trains from all graders have been

The annual meeting of the legislature took plane
on the 7th inst., when the Governor made as
opening speech. He commenced by saying :

The valuable lives of many noble and plant men, whew
were ornaments to tee lead, have been sacrificed (whilst

State) by a most savage and cruel butchery, only to he

to murder the white sad coloured inhabitants of this
colony has been effectually subdued, and the principal
actors in and chief instigators of it have been brought
under the punishment of death, so justly due to their most
heinous offences. •33 widespread a rebellion so madly
and so effectually pat down is not, I believe, to be
