THE CUMBERLAND PACQUET.
Established 1774.
Published at 26, King-street, Whitehaven, by Robert Foster,
every Tuesday, price aid. ; or Stamped, lid. ; Credit, 6s. ;
or Stamped, 16s. ; or Ll per Annum.
THE CUMBERLAND PACQUET is a full-sized
paper of eight pages, containing forty-eight columns of
closely--printed matter, and its circulation extends throughout
the counties of Cumberland, Westmoreland, Lancashire, and
Yorkshire, as well as very generally over other parts of the
kingdom. As an Advertising medium, this journal cannot be
surpassed, being read by the leading gentry, clergy, agricul-
tural, shipping, and commercial classes of the district in
which it is circulated. The number and influence of its sub-
scribers renders it a most eligible medium for advertisements
of estate and other property ; and the commercial community
cannot avail themselves of any provincial journal better calcu-
lated to introduce their announcements to the class of news-
paper readers whose attention to such advertisements is sought
to be obtained.

THE MORNING CHRONICLE having, at the close
of last year, passed into the hands of a new Proprietary,
is now conducted under an entirely new management.
During nearly a Century THE MORNING CHRONICLE
has been the steadfast advocate of Liberal principles and
enlightened views ; always ready to support the Statesman
whose measures were calculated to promote the general inter-
ests—never the tool of Party.
Faithful to its old creed, considering judicious amelioration
to be the best Conservatism, THE MORNING CHRONICLE
earnestly supports our venerable Constitution in its essential
principles—principles none the less in in their practical
efficacy because brought into harmonious concurrence with th
genius and tendencies of the age.
Every department of this Journal has been remodelled. Its
Political Information is derived from unquestionable sources ;
and whlist_ it keeps its readers conversant with all important
occurrences, political and SiaoialTballit hole -and abroad-the
lighter, but not unimportant, claims of Literature and Art are
equally represented in its columns.
The constant aim of the present Conductors of THE MORN-
ING CHRONICLE is to make it an organ of influence amongst
Statesmen and public men of all denominations; and whilst
presenting-a faithful reflex.of the events and feelings of the
day, not to lose sight of the permanent interests and prospec-
tive destinies of society. um!

THE SOUTHERN TIMES, Dorsetahire Herald,
Weymouth and Portland Gazette, and General Adver-
tiser for Dorset, Somerset, Devon, Wilts, and Hants. Pub-
lished at the "Southern Times" Office, Weymouth, every
Saturday morning. Circulation extending over five Counties,
the Isle of Wight, and the Channel Islands, under one general
management with the " Dorset County Chronicle." (Dor-
chester, Thursday.)
The intimate connection maintained with the principal
places in the counties referred to is manifested by the amount
of local intelligence which flows in weekly.
Considerable interest has been, and will be, created by the
appearance in its columns of articles by the Editor (Mr. W.
W. Fyfe), affording development to the Channel Islands
traffic, to the Railway Communications and Connections of the
South-west, the general principles and the peculiar advan-
tages of Fire and Life Insurance, with reference to the position
and prospects of the various leading offices throughout the
United Kingdom; and also by the Educational and Agricul-
tural Series and ample Literary Critiques upon almost every
publication of note emanating from the Press. The Insurance,
Railway, Educational, Agricultural, and Literary Series are
now commenced; and as priority of attention will necessarily
be given to the claims of supporters of the papers, whether as
Subscribers or Advertisers, the present is a very fitting oppor-
tunity for securing an early notice, and also for commencing
Subscriptions with the new volume, which has in progress a
superb gratis reprint of Hitchin's scarce " county History of
Dorset," a work worth 70 guineas !

CIVIL SERVICES IN BOMBAY.—Lord Canning has
forwarded a minute of Lord Elphinstone recording the
services of several civil servants of the Bombay estab-
lishment during the period of the Indian mutiny. In
forwarding the despatch, Lord Canning says :--"• While
I entirely concur in the estimate which Lord Elphin-
stone has formed of the individual services of those who
were under the immediate orders of his government, I
must observe that to Lord Elphinstone himself, foremost
of them and above them all, is our debt of gratitude
due. I have long ago expressed my sense of the
degree to which India is indebted to the patriotic
and unselfish aid which came to us from the Governors
of the Cape of Good Hope and of the Mauritius—Sir
G. Grey and Sir J. Higginson—and it only remains for
me to declare my entire concurrence in all that Lord
Elphinstone and his council have said on this head."
The names specially mentioned in Lord Elphinstone's
despatch for the favourable consideration of her Majesty's
Government are those of Mr. J. N. Rose, chief civil
officer in Sattara ; Mr. Seton Karr, political agent in the
Southern Mahratta country; Major-General Sir H.
Roberts, and Brigadier-General Le Grand Jacob,
political commissioners in Guzerat and the Southern
Mahratta country, whose cases have already "been
brought to the notice of her Maesty's Government,
and have been appropriately (though in the case
of Brigadier-General Jacob inadequately) rewarded
with the honours of the second and third class
of the Bath ;" Sir Richard Shakespear, political commis-
sioner ; Majors Merewether and Green, political agents;
Captain Walker, superintendent of police at Tanna ;
Major Montgomery, lieutenant of police at Shikar-
poor when the Native Artillery at that station mutinied;
Lieutenant Naylor, lieutenant of police at Hyderabad ;
Captain Graham ; Captain Buckle, assistant political
agent in the Rewa Santa ; Commodore Wellesley,
C. 8., commander-in-chief of the Indian Navy ; Lieu-;
tenants Chitty and Sweeney, of the Indian navy
Captain Jenkins, C. 8., Colonel Davidson, commissary-
Ceneral ; Major Kane; Major Taylor, of the second
avalry ; Captain Birch, Candeish Bheel Corps.
After mentioning the invaluable assistance_ received
from his hon. colleagues, including Mr. Lumsden, who
has since left the service, his lordship specially recom-
mends to the favourable -consideration of her Majesty's
Government the services of Mr. H. L. Anderson,
secretary in the political, secret, and judicial departments.
In concluding the minute, attention is drawn to the
services rendered by some high officers unconnected with
the presidency, more especially the governors of the
Mauritius and •the Cape—Sir James Higginson and Sir
George Grey, the latter of whom, to meet the demand
for trained and serviceable horses, actually sent his own
'carriage horses to make, up
.the number required.

Chuich, and Mrs. Liddell, Sir G.' Wombwell, Mr.
Farquharson, and' Mr. 'Whately. The saloon was
brilliantly illuminated, -aigl-had a very imposing effect;
the table was luid out 'with eensurrimatet taste and
skill, the magnificent plateau in silver representing the'
first Duke of Marlborough on , horseback, writing his
' despatches in, pencil on a kettle-drum on the field of
battle, occupying the centre of the • table.' Silver can-
delabra, vases, statuettes, figures, &c., in alabaster, were
ranged artistically along the table, interspersed with
fruits, flowers, confectionery, &c. At each end of the
table were vases with pine-apples and clusters of grapes,
remarkable for their size and beauty. After the ban-
quet, the Duke and Duchess gave an evening party in
the splendid suite of rooms, comprising. the grand
cabinet, small drawing-room, large drawing-room, all
of which were illuminated, and had a most imposing
effect. The company—amounting to upwards of 300—
began to arrive about nine o'clock, and continued to do
so till nearly eleven o'clock.
