There was a rule in an old debating society which

Yesterday morning while a man was ploughing in
a field near the Prince Albert public-house, East Surrey-
grove, Peckham, he turned up a gold coin, weighing half an
ounce, and bearing the following inscription :—loAtorEs V.
D• G. Yowl.. ET ALCM. Rim. R. 1747 (John V., King of Portu-
gal and Algarves, reigned 1747). The coin had evidently,
from its appearance, lain a great length of time in the

Tim NEW SHIP AMERICA.—This fine specimen
of Canadian ship-building, commanded by Captain Andrew
Crawford, arrived in the Mersey, on Friday morning, from
Quebec, after a rapid passage. Captain Crawford parted
with his pilot in the River St. Lawrence on the morning of
the 16th ult., and took his Liverpool pilot on board on the
morning of the sth instant, thus making the passage in the
remarkably short space of twenty days, with a heavy cargo
of timber and flour, drawing 22 feet water, The America
is 1,183 tons register, was built at Quebec, and launched last
May, by the eminent shipbuilder, Mr. G. H. Parke, of
that city, under the special superintendence of Lloyd's sur-
veyor. Tne construction is of that superior order which can
only be appreciated by experienced parties after a personal
inspection ; but the form and finish at once strike the eye of
the beholder, producing the instant conviction that the vessel
has claims of no ordinary merit, and will no doubt prove to
the satisfaction of any unprejudiced person that our Cana-
dian shibuilders can produce ships of a model, quality, and
nut to be surpassed by those of any other builders,
either in the colonies or the United States. She had a
large number of cabin passengers, several of whom are
en route for Australia, and whose chief regret was that they
could not proceed in the ship.— Liverpool Albion.

complaints to the parochial authorities of the daily inter-
clients that take place in the churchyard, which is literally

burials, and on the southern aide, near the railings, opposite
Essex-street, there is a deep grave or fosse, some 20 feet

untouched that can receive a corpse. The overseers and
guardians of the Strand Union are trying to form a General
nodal Committee or Board for the whole of the parishes in
the city of Westminster, and to purchase a site of ground
at some distance, but much opposition is shown by the
tFochlal authorities of St. George's, Hanover-square, St.
Itargarst's and St John's, Westminster, and other parishes.
