The DAILY MAIL contains all the News 'of the day,
condensed and selected from the principal newspapers, as
well as correspondence from the various districts of the
country. To Local News of every kind a large space is
devoted; and it contains exclusively the Latest Intelli-
gence from all parts of the Continent received by Submarine
Telegraph, generally a day in advance of other papers
It has been for some years the leading and most influentia
Journal in the West of Scotland, and has at present a cir-
culation greater than that of some of the London Morning
Journals; but as a large increase will result from the re-
duction in price, no better medium exists for such Adver-
tisements as are addressed to the wealthy and influential
classes of - Glasgow, and the wide-spread, populous
manufacturing districts around and dependent upon the
western Capital.
To all places where Railway or Steamboat facilities ex-
tend, arrangements will be made to send the DAILY
MAIL in parcels, Unstamped ; but if the post-office is used
for transmission, the Papers must be stamped, which will,
however, entitle them to retransmission as often as desired

GUARDIAN-OFFICE; 11, FigiIIEIIQATR, pit,E,sTeirt

was received from Mr

, on behalf of the

3-tug proprietors, requesting to be informed of the name
_ party on whose authority they assert that steam can be
kept up, and smoke at the same time consumed, in order that
a tug-steamer may be placed at his disposal to pr )ve the
assertion. It was referred to the smoke sub-committee.
Mr. Beckwith said he did not know what to do with it,
and he would, therefore, suggest that it be allowed to lie on
the table. (No, no.)
Mr. Ilaydock brought under the notice of the committee a
nuisance arising from a slaughter-house in Plumb-street. It
appeared, however, that the place had been licensed by the
Council, and that the medical officers approved of the site for
the purpose;
This concluded the business.

Taglioni has just quitted Vienna for St. Peters-
burg, after a stay in the former capital of two months.
Baron Parke has not been gazettPd, and there are
doubts whether he will take the title of Lord Ampthill. It
is believed that he will take his title from some place in the
North of Et)glnd.

RicENT. Wri.m.—The will of Major-General James
Bucknall'Esteourt, whO died in the Crimea in June, has
been proved in London under £16,000. Also the wills of
Rear-Admiral James Prevost, and Stephen'Kennant Chap-
man, Captain and Brevet-Major, 20th regiment, Sebastopol,
£3,000. Alexander Lumsdale, Commander R.N., £25,000.
Joseph Toplis, auctioneer, £20,000. James, Yo'wig, M.D.,

Woodbridge, ironmonger, £35,000. Stephen Winckworth
Silver, of Cornhill and Carshalton, clothier and outfitter,
£120,000.

INTERESTING RACE.—An interesting race was run in the
middle of last month at Cairo, between an English mare
and an Arab horse belonging to Ilaleem Pacha, when the
former thoroughly beat the, latter. The length of the race
was eight miles ; the time occupied by the mare 183
minutes, over a rough; gravelly, and sandy road. The same
race has 'been offered for the 'last' two years against all
England, for !10,000 sovereigns, with the same horse, and
not accepted. The, Egyptian princes are now convinced
that their Arabs can be beaten by English horses.. The late
Viceroy, Abbas Pacha, had offered to stake any amount Up
to £150,000 on his own horses against any others that
might be,brought to run.

CHANGES IN TILE HOUSE OF PEERS.—The following
members of the peerage of the United Kingdom have died
since the Ist of January, 1855 :—The Dukes of Manchester,
and Somerset, the Marquis of Thomond. the Earls of Sefton,
Leitrim, Caithness, Caledon, Stanhope, Carysfort, and
Antrim ; Viscounts Boyne, Ponsonby, O'Neill, Lifford,
Hereford,. De Vesci, and Strangford ; and Lords Raglan,
Decies, Kenyon, Erskine, Wharncliffe, Delamere, Ravens-
worth, and Truro, together with Baroness Basset. Of these
the Marquisate of Thomond, the Viscounties of Ponionby
and O'Neill, and the Barony of Basset have become extinct.
During the same period the Earldom of Seuthesk, a Scottish
title attainted in the rebellion of the last century, has been
restored in the person of Sir James Carnegie, Bart. ; Mr.
Edmund Burke Roche, late M.P. for County Cork, has been
raised to the Irish peerage as Lord Fermoy, and Mr. Baron
Parke has been created an English peer by the title of Lord
Ampthill.
MANUMISSION or A SLAVE.—At the Mansion House,
London, on Wednesday last, the novel and interesting cir-
cumstance of emancipating a slave took place before the
Lord Mayor. The Secretary of the British and Foreign
Anti-Slavery Society said the slave in , question, Philip
Bailey, was a native of Maryland, United States, and had
been a doinestic slave. During the last five years he had
been engaged as steward on board one of the American ships
sailing from Liverpool, in 'which ' capacity he shad saved
200 dollars with which to purchase his freedom, and which
had been negotiated by the society's agents. The object
of the applicant in handing the document of manumission
to Bailey in public was, that in the event of his losing the
document he mighi, -be able to refer to the newspapers of
the country as proof of his having obtained his freedom.
The Lord Mayor said it afforded him much pleasure at
witnessing such interesting ceremony, and he had no doubt
the press would give publicity to such a novel and humane
circumstance. Bailey, an intelligent young Dian, with an
appearance very prepossessing, and far superior to his class,
received the document wiih feelings of satisfaCtiOn and pride)
and having thanked his lordship) retired,
