The 53d Regiment was presented with a splendid new

the fashion in garrison. After consecration by the
officiating Chaplain, the colours were handed by the
Lieutenant-Governor, General Sir John Don, to Mrs.
Ccinsidine, and she presented them, with an appropriate
address, to the two senior ensigns, who received the
standards bending on one knee, in front of the regiment.

REDUCTION OF RENTS.--We understand
the Duke of BUCCLEUCII has spontaneously made a reducT
Lion of rent to all his tenants on the estate of Dalkeith,
This has not been done on one year's rent, but the reduc-
tion is computed for the duration of the various leases.
We cannot too much applaud the liberal conduct of this
highly respectable young Nobleman.— Caledonian Men

—Mr. DOBELL, who holds an official sittiafriou wider the
Russian Government, is about to give to, the world the re-
sults of his experience in a work entitled " Travels in
Kamtchatka and Siberia, with a Narrative of a Residence
in China." His det,ails respecting the little-known regions
of SilnC,a are reported to be remarkably curious and,
minute; and the course of his progresa through that
country is said to include a certai,n district perhaps hitherto
untrodden by human feet save those of himself and the
wild Tongusees, His account of China, derived front n
abod3 at Canton of considerable duration at three diiTerent
p-eriods, can
soyaardly fail to be acceptableEct the present
érisis, when nxious an attention is directed towards
the state and prospects of our china trade.
