While 263,0491. of private deposits have been with-
drawn, the Bank has received nearly twice that
sum as Government deposits, but, owing to the
revival of the demand for money, as indicated by
the increase in the private securities, there is a
diminution of 137,742/. in the reserve. During
the week about 100,000/. in gold was taken out of
the Bank, against only 7,0001. sent in from abroad,

CHOLERA AT PORT GLAIR:I/W.—lt may be re-
membered that at the beginning of the year a sudden out-
break of cholera, resulting in a good ninny deaths, took
place at Port Glasgow. After the lapseof nearly two months
the diaease has spin appeared within the last few days,

young persons and an adult. The medical officer. report

curred at Murvine (Moselle). The cure had performed the

had died the previous night at the age of 71. and the men
had partially tilled up the grave, when all at once they
heard a dull sound, apparently arising from the coffin.
They fetched at once the person who lived nearest the
cemetery, and he in his tarn heard the same noise. The
mayor was sent for and gave orders for the exhumation.
The coffin was opened and the body was found to be warm
but no other sign of life was to be perceived. A medical
examination fixed the moment of actual decease at the
time at which the exhumation was being made.

been disposed to take offence at any feats of jugglery with
that dangerous weapon at L— there would have been
ample field for such exception. I remember on one occa-
sion (when it was my inestimable privilege to sup at the
serene table--an honour to which only twelve could be
admitted, because we fed off geld, and the service was
only made for a dozen)—l remember, I say, on that
august ocelsion nearly fainting with horror 11111' dismay
when I beheld an old man in • gorgeous suit of clothes
(painted, padded, dyed, and polished rarir, and scin-
tillating with orders), drinking gravy off a knife. A serene
highness is, I suppose, pledged to remain serene under any
provocation. Our serene highness watched the juggling
feat of this old gentleman with perfect placidity, but he
ate his own supper after another fashion.—CornAill Ato9a-
