AUSTRALIAN CORDILLERA GOLD AND COPPER MINING
COMPANY.—The directors of this company will dispatch
from Gravesend, in the chartered ship Tory, their staff,
consisting of upwards of 100 men, together with ma-
chinery, practical engineers, and commissariat officers,
and have. appointed Lord Walter Butler, one of the
brothers of the Marquis of Ormonde, as their managing
director and chief agent in the colony, who will proceed
in the ship. They will proceed direct to Port Stephen's,
where the agents of the Australian Land Company will
Meet, and-convey them at once to the land, which they
will immediately commence working. The valuable pos-
sessions of the Australian Agricultural Land Company
will no doubt prove to them a rich and abundant har-
vest. More than 30 young and active men were Sent
to London by the secretary, Mr. W. A.' Hunt, from
this neighbourhood on Friday last, to join the expedi-
tion at Gravesend.—Plyinduth, Mail.
SUDDEN DEATH.—On Wednesday last, while Mr.
Thomas Campbell was attending the funeral of his son
in the Roman Catholic burial ground of this city, he fell
down dead at the moment the coffin was lowered into
the grave.—Derry Standard.
Naw MOON DIVINATION.—Being lately on a visit in
Yorkshire, I was amused one evening to find the ser-
vants of the house excusing themselves for being out of
the way when the bell rang on the plea that they had
been " hailing the first new moon of the new year."
This mysterious salutation was effected, I believe, by
Means of a looking-glass, in which the first sight of the
moon was to be had, and the object to be gained was
the important secret as to how many years would elapse
before the marriage of the observers. If one moon was
seen in the glass, one year ; if two, two years ; and so
on. In the case in question, the maid and the boy saw
only one moon a-piece. Whether the superstition would,
in this instance, be suggestive to their minds of anything.
to be deduced from the coincidence, I do not know ;
but as they were both very old-fashioned folks, I sup-
pbse the custom may not be unknown to those learned
in Folk.'Lore. What is the orthodox mode of conduct-
ing this kind of divination ?—Notes and Queries.
ROYAL ARCHERS.—We have heard it rumoured that
about July next, we will be favoured with a visit from
the Queen's Body Guard for Scotland, when the arrow
presented by the town will be competed for. It is said
that the meeting will be one of no ordinary interest, and
that several of the first nobility of Scotland will be pre
sent. —Mon trose Standard.
