TUE STAR OF THE EAST.—This fine vessel, under the
command of Capt. Christian, arrived in London from
Shanghai yesterday morning, bringing 2,419 bales of silk,
valued at £250,000 ; also 15,665 chests of tea, and 179
packages of sundries.
DOVE, TUE PoisoNErt.—This criminal, so little less noto-
rious than Palmer, and whose case excite-I so much public
attention, may be seen, as life-like as it is possible for art
to make him, at Alsop's Gallery, in Lime-street. It has
surprised hundreds, who have seen the original, that the
statue could be so perfectly like it. As a work of art, it is
worth seeing, even without other interest which attaches to
the likeness.

THE BOY ROCITE.—BENEVOLENCE.—A lady, a subscriber
to the NORTIIERN TIMES, has kindly forwarded to us
£1 for the benefit of the boy Roche, who escaped from
the late fire in Shaw's Alley. We have handed the amount
to Mr. Crossley, of South Castle-street, who has taken so
much interest in the poor boy's welfare ; and that, along
with other sums received from benevolent persons by Mr.
Crossley, will be properly applied, and according to the
kind and charitable intentions of the donors.

THE WEATHER.—VIOLENT GALE. —On Monday night
the town and neighbourhood was visited by a violent gale,
from a point south of west, and such as is quite unusual at
this time of year. It resembled a fierce equinoxial storm,
and continued from about five o'clock in the evening up to
nine yesterday morning. We have not heard of any damage
done by the gale, but we fear the result. The weather,
yesterday, was dry and fine, with a brisk breeze, and we
understand, that in our local districts everything looks
favourable for the harvest.

BANKRUPTCY COURT.—( Before Mr. Commissioner Perry.)
—ln re John Brundley, of Abbott's Grange, Chester, and.
formerly of Tarvin Hall, schoolmaster.—This was an
adjourned meeting for the bankrupt to pass his last examina-
tion. Mr. Aspinall appeared fir the bankrupt, and Mr
Conway for the assignees, who examined the bankrupt at
considerable length, touching his receipts and expenditure
since 1850, the date when his balance sheet commenced.
After some observations from Mr. Conway, the bankrupt
was allowed to pass, and the 22nd of September was fixed
for the certificate meeting.
ARRIVAL OF TILE STEAMSHIP ANGLO-SAXON AT
CANADA.—The Canadian Royal Mail Steamship Anglo-
Saxon, Captain M'Master, anchored off Indian Cove, at
the entrance to the harbour, before midnight on Saturday,
and arrived at this port yesterday morning at five o'clock.
She sailed from Liverpool on the 30th ult, at 10 a.m., and
has thus made a rapid run of ten days fourteen hours (in-
cluding detention by fog at the entrance to the Straits of
Belle Isle. The passage is, we believe, the fastest on record
via St. Lawrence. The intelligence to hand by this arrival
is four days later from Europe than that brought by the
Asia, at New York, whose mails reached Quebec only on
Saturday afternoon. The passengers proceeded by express
train to Montreal, and thence to Brookville and Toronto,
accomplishing the distance from Liverpool to Toronto in
twelve days. When the Illinois Central Railway is com-
pleted, the voyage between Liverpool and New Orleans
will -be made in fourteen days by the Canadian route.—
