Tnos*.s WHITE's BENrrrr.—This well-known
water man, who recently engaged in • gallant though nu.
successful contest for the championship of the Thames, has
secured 'alley's Royal Amphitheatre for a benefit to-
morrow evening. The performances will consist of an
equestrian entertainment, followed by the musical farce of
The Waterman, in which all the celebrated watermen of
the day will assist, each man attired in his coat and badge.
Then will come au Ethiopian Entertainment," followed
by Dibdiu's rouge, the whole winding up with one of those
brilliant displays of horsemanship for which Mr. Batty's
conApatty is famous.
THE GitNAT Easrearc—The arrangements for
winter are, we believe, as follows :—On sad after the sth of
November the ship will be under the charge ut Captain
Jackson, the ship's agent, who will be misted by Messrs.
Curtin and Archdeacon, and about ten men, including an
auxiliary engineer. The ship will remain open to visitors
during the winter, and it is expected that an average of '25
to 30 per diem may be calculated on. Some 30,000 persons
have visited the Great Eastern since her arrival at Milford
Haven. During the tuestb of September last the very low
fares of the South Wales Railway drew upwards of 19,000
excursionists alone to Milford Haven, exclusive of those
who travelled by ordinary trains at excursion once', and
would doubtless have drawn double that number bad the
~other not born so bad.

WILD FOWL IN THZ FINB.-111 Consequence of
recent wet weather the feue of Lincolnshire are producing •
larger supply than usual of wild fowl, which hes been for.
warded to the London market.. The county was formerly
celebrated for wild fowl shooting, but it hue of late years
been gradually decreasing as the drainage of land has ad-
vanced. Large quantities of wild geese have recently pared
over the fens, and their coming thus early from ties north
is said to indicate an early winter.
MEATH OF A LIVERPOOL DOCTOR BY DROWNING.
—On Saturday afternoon the body of an elderly man, re-
spectably attired. was found floating in the Trafford Dock,
LiverpooL On the body being taken to the dead house it
was examined hy several medical gentlemen, and ulti-
mately recognised as that of Dr. o&wur, of 19, Upper
Parliament-street. How the dipareed fell into the &r.. 1 In

I bruised. and the general appearance of the body indicated

EttIONATION FROM INZLILND.—The Western Mar
alleges that the exodus still matinees :—" Even at this late
petted of the season the • exodus' is warmly • whit abated.
The rash is still outward, and America seems to be the
err destination of those leaving the country. The Prince
Albert sailing from Galway on Tuesday last was unable to
accommodate tho numbers who applied for passages. Those
who leave by the Galway line are by no means the lowest
class of emigrants, the terms being much higher than in
sailing vessels. We had an opportunity of seeing some
of the passengers who left by that vessel and even those
who occupied the steerage had• comfortable and respectable
=Tnce--just such people as might be expected to do
home. Many of the steerage passengers were from
the province of Ulster, and some of them bad undergone
considerable hardship in reaching the capital of the west.
A large number of emigrants left this neighbourhood for
Galway on Monday List, and the stream of emigration rid
Livermad still 'retinues to flow almost as rapidly as in
June or July."
