The fairs of Frankfort and Leipsic have 'hewn
what a pre-eminence the u►unufactur►s of Germany
and Switzerland have attained over England during
the time of the continental prohibition. With respect
to primed cotton goods, the manufacture of the
Continent had this time the first rank, and the Eng-
lish ►hewed themselves inferior us well in the choice
of the patterns, as to the taste and beauty of the
work. The English themselves who were at these
fairs, could not conceal their adn►in►tiou, and many
articles were bought by them, which they have sent
to England to setae as patterns. The English mer-
chants had not yet produced in our market the
Merino articles, with coloured designs (rove
d'Adrianopk) which are so much in vogue, nor
double Merinos, of two different reds, and with
coloured branch of industry which, for
some years past, and teen at present, belongs ex-
clusively to the Confluent. The stuffs of the fol-
lowing colours, six. crimson, poticests, soul pur-
ple, in particular, were extremely beautiful, and
writ all bought up during the first week of the fair.
Other new productions ut a sorted nature obtained
good prices, mid were ►oon entirely bought up.
The carpets or the first manufactories of Switzer-
land and Germ:my wire fir superior to the English
carpets, both iu the elegance of the patterns and
the brilliancy of the colours. The continental
goods rioted on the cylinder of the best u►suufac-
tories, rivalled those of Esigland, and the latter
were in part sold at low pliers. The English
goods of superior quality m+tintaiued their prices,
whereas ordinary goods fell in large quantities into
the bands of several speculators, who hawked them
about ; the Lime thing happened to German
piloted good* of ordinary quality. In general,
smee articles of good quality were sought after, and
liberally paid fur. The German public u►ust be
every clay more and more conviticed, that when the
prices are equal, the English goods are always in-
ferior in quality to those of Germany, and that the
solid productions of the latter are always cheaper
than those of England.— ( AI/gelatine %tilting.)

Our enlightened Government throw', no obstacles
in the way of the emigrations. which have hitherto
been mold iu Wirteinherg almost every year, and
which were permitted also by the ancient Constitu-
tiou of Wirtemberg ; but it at the same tune takes
wise incisor's that those desirous of emigrating
may not be deceived by impostors, who try to take
advantage of the natural thoughtlessness and the
ignorance of the common Swat Lien pea!aut•. Cure
is taken, by means of publications adapted to the
people, that those who nave a mind to emigrate
should be better informed respecting the nature of
the count ries to which they propose to remove, and the
situation of the settler* of the Wirtetubergen, who,
confiding in the vain promises of rapacious specu-
lators, emigrated to Poland. Russia, and the Cri-
mea, many have returned, whose accounts of what
happened to them are the best antidote to the

its great utility, is greatly approved and extensively

a great error who ascribe the annual emigrations,

Private accounts from St. Maurice say. i• The
lake is entirely drained ; the torrent carried away
fifty-two houses of the tillage of Champsal, with
all the soil, all the barns, and a fine wood. the
inhabitants are obliged to seek elsewhere au abode
and subsistence; We houses of Have, and some
at St. Branchier, have also disappeared, at the
latter place five meadows have been washed away
down to the very rocks near St. Bratichier to
Moistened). The torrent drove before it the forest
which accumulated to the height of • high
bill, and every thing that was in its course. The
wire manofuetory of M. Kolb, of Geneva, con-
sisting of silt buildings, which lay fifty feet above
the level of the Menu, were carried away in
an instant ; five persona perished. At Mastenach,
the stream rose to the first floor of the houses ; se.
veral houses, trees, and many barns are carried
away ; numbers of people and cattle perished. On
the 21 it, the positive details were not known. The
country for three leagues round is covered with
slime and wood. On the 20th, the overseer of the
Convent of St. Maurice, attempted to go to
Mosteitach, but he perished in the Dranu. On
the 21st large quantities of provisions arrived
at St. Maurice, from the Canton of Vaud, for the
unhappy persons, who, cut off from all communi-
cations, are in danger of perishing by famine (their
cries of distress are said to have been heard from
afar), bait they could not be conveyed to them—
