We regret to hear of the ilium of the noble ex-
Lord Chancellor (Lord Truro). His Lordship
has been for
some days confined to his bed. Yesterday he was rather
better.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer has reduced the
interest on the Government loan to the Great Southern
C
and Western Railway Company to 31,1 per cent., which
will make a difference of at least 7,000/. per annum in their
favour.

remains until the Ist of May, when she will clear out for the
THE GREAT BRITAIL—This
United States with a large number of passengers and an ex-
tensive cargo. She will have no steerage passengers. Her first
and second class cabins are replete with every accommoda-
tion ; her cuisine arrangements are most excellent : and the pro-
splendid screw-
visions for second-class passengers will not be inferior to those
of a mail steam-ship. Her owners made an application to
the Dock Committee, on Thursday, to be allowed to work
her screw in dock ; but, it being the opinion of the surveyor
that it might not be unattended with danger, the application
was refused.

EXTRAORDINARY SCENE AY COLNEY.ZATCH
RAILWAY IlozEL.—A singular scene of riot and confusion
occurred
at this village on Monday last, on the opening of
the Railway Hotel by Mr. Davis, on which occasion a ge-
neral feast was to have been given to the inhabitants, in the
old Homeric style, of roasting a whole sheep and an entire
ox ! As it was considered that the invitation to the good
cheer was general, so, as soon as the feast was ready and the
guests prepared, a arm)g party of excavators, mustering be-
tween thirty and fort
rushed like the " band of fierce bar-
barians," in Home's
pion I fills, but from the
railway works, and pounced upon the
roasted cat:le, carrying riot and devastation all before them.
The dkjAnted roasted ox was seized, the booths upset, and
a universal melee commenced. As there was but one police-
man at the station (who upon his appearance was greeted
with the most choice morsels of fat, some alighting on his
face and others on his retreating parts), the excavators had it
all their own way, and made a regular clearance of the viands
and other good cheer, and then departed, without any Norval
to follow. This disgraceful affair, the motives of which may
evidently- be ascribed to other parties than the excavators,
will of course undergo the strictest investigation by the
proper authorities.
