THE YELLOW FEVER IN BERMUDA.

A private letter received at Plymouth, dated Halifax,
September 25th, states that, by telegraph from Balti-
more, they learn that, up to the 18th of September, 60
convicts and as many soldiers had died of yellow fever.
Colonel Phillpotts, the Acting Governor, many offi-
cers in garrison, and'. whole families of the principal
people at St. George were swept off. 160 soldiers -were
in hospital, and the disease was proceeding speedily and
becoming fatal. Medical assistance had been called for,
and was being dispatened from Halifax.
Colonel Phillpotts is brother of the bishop of this
diooese. His family were to have embarked from Eng-
land on the 22d inst.

Captain Hare, the ]Fort-Adjutant (reported as Hare-
foot), is son of Captain, Hare, of Hoor, near Plymouth.
In case of the death. of Major Pailey, who was among
the sick, the acting command devolves on Major Byles,
also of the 56th, the ()ally remaining field-officer.
Excepting Bahama and Grenada, the yellow fever has
now attacked every island in the West Indies.
Bermuda is distant .800 miles from St. Thomas, the
most northerly of tlb;ose islands. Exclusive of the
troops and convicts, it; contains 10,000 inhabitants ; the
principal town (Hamalton) has nearly 4,000. Ireland,
five miles to the north, where the dockyard, naval, and
convict establishments are situated, contains 500 troops,
and 1,500-convicts. sit. George, 10 miles east of Hamil-
ton, has a population of 1,000. Bermuda was visited
by yellow fever in 171)6, 1819, and 1843, when it was
oxticinciT fatal at Tr,aland, where Colonel Reid caught
the infection, and narrowly escaped. BY AA
it had not yet reached: that locality.

Notwithstanding that the supply of English wheat on
Ter here to-day was very moderate, the demand for all
kinds ruled extremely inactive, at, in some instances, a
Wight decline in the quotations of Monday.
The imports of foreign wheat having exceeded 47,000
quarters, the trade for that description of produce was
heavy, and low qualities were ls per quarter lower. to pur-
chase. In floating cargoes next to nothing was doing..
We had a large supply of barley, in which very little

of the liberation and return of the Hungarian
Martin Kossta from Smyrna to America. The
semi-official organ is at great pains to show that
the Austrian Government has not come off second-
best in this matter, but such is evidently the
case. The hope is indirectly expressed, that the
Washington Government will offer some kind of
apology for the conduct of Captain Ingraham.
The misunderstanding between the Sardinian and
Imperial Governments is greater than ever, and
Count Appony has returned to Vienna from Turin
with leave of absence for an indefinite period.
Austria demands the surrender of 43 of her sub-
jects, who, after having been concerned in the in-
surrection of February 6th at Milan, fled to Pied-
mont, but to this claim Piedmont turns a deaf ear.
The relations between Switzerland and this country
are exactly what they were three months ago.

'IS DAY.)

RN ANG.
Notwithstanding that the supply ofE English wheat on
offer here to-day was very moderate, the demand for all
kinds ruled extremely inactive, at, in some instances, a
slight decline in the quotations of Monday. Shr.
The imports of foreign wheat having exceeded 47,000
quarters, the trade for that description of produce was St.
heavy, and low qualities were is per quarter lower to pur- 20
elute°. In floating cargoes next to nothing was doing.
We had a large supply of barley, in which very little 14
was doing, on easier terms.
Malt was in moderate request, and the quotations were 31
well supported.
The arrivals of foreign oats having considerably increased, 27
the oat trade was heavy, at 6d to is per quarter less money.
New beans wore is lower. Old plrcels supported late 22
rates.

In peas, Indian corn, and flour, very fow transactions
took place.

SMITHFIELD.
To day's market was somewhat extensively with beasts,
the general quality of which was inferior. All breeds met a dull inquiry, and, in some instances, prices had a down•
ward tendency. Prime Down sheep were scarce, and held
at full currencies. Otherwise the mutton trade was heavy,.
at 2d per Sibs less money. The primest calves moved oft
slowly on former terms, but other kinds of breeds wore
very. dull, and 2d to 411 per Sibs cheaper. In pigs very
little was doing, at drooping prices.
Milch cows were very dull, at from 14/. to 191. each,
including their small calf.

ject. My employing him, or otherwise, will depend on
circumstances.
Mr. Elliott remarked that it was quite lamentable to
see a man like the defendant, who had the means within
his power of making himself and his family most com-
fortable, place himself in his present situation. It was
quite clear that he had been treated with every kindness
and consideration by his master, and that his 'conduct
therefore was most improper and unjustifiable. It was
at all times most unpleasant to him (Mr. Elliott) to send
a person in the defendant's position to prison, but he
should not be doing his duty on the present occasion if
he did not mark his sense of his misconduct, and bis
sentence was that the defendant be imprisoned in the
House of Correction and kept to hard labour for 14
days.

TELEGRAPH IN IRELAND.—The Magnetic Telegraph
Company have laid their wires over nearly the entire
of the Great Southern and Western line ; the telegraphic
communication is now in operation between Cork and
the Limerick Junction, and in the course of a month it
will be completed from Dublin to Cork. It has also
been established from Mallow to Killarney, and it is
the intention of the Magnetic Company to continue the
wires from Cork to Queenstown.
GAS LIME EXEMPT FROM TOLL.—An interesting
point was decided at the Worcester petty sessions on
Tuesday last. A toll-gate keeper charged Mr. Payne,
a farmer, of Henwick, with refusing to pay toll on a load
of gas lime. The defence was that gas lime is a che-
mical manure, which the statute expressly exempts ;
and, after a lengthened examination, and hearing scien-
tific evidence, the magistrates dismissed the charge,
considering this description of lime to be exempt.

Last Three Nights of the present Season.

The increasing popularity of the National Spectacle of the Battle of
Waterloo, which has now completed its 73d night, has by far ex-
ceeded the most sanguine expectations of the Lessee, who, anxious
to meet the public taste, has increased the attraction of that re-
nowned Spectacle of a Splendid Military Brass Band. In an-
nouncing the Grand Production for Five Nights more (when it
must be withdrawn to make room for the New Classical Burlesque,
conjointly with the Hippo Drama of Life on the Turf, which has
arrived at its 102 d night—a fact unprecedented), he feels confi-
dent that he is only meeting the wish of his patrons, who nightly
flock to this popular Establishment to witness their representa-
tion. To afford every possible Novelty, Mr. W. Cooke's Scenes in
the Circle are entirely changed each week. The return of Miss
EMILY COOKE from her Continental Tour was hailed with de-
monstrations of delight. She will repeat her matchless perform-
ance every evening. N.B.—Due Notice will be given of the
First Appearance in London of Miss KATE COOKE. The long-
promised Classical Burlesque will be produced on SATURDAY,
the 10th inst.

MIDLAND GREAT WESTERN.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on
Friday, at Dublin, Mr. John Ennis in the chair.
The Secretary read the report, an abstract of which
has appeared. The capital account showed that
2,038,2001. had been expended. The revenue account
showed that 62,6331. had been received on the 1261
miles of railway during the half-year, and 28,7841. ex-
pended, leaving a balance of 33,849/.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said the undertaking was as safe, as compact, and as
satisfactory a mercantile investment as could be found
in Great Britain. The west of Ireland, wherein
property some time ago was so valueless, was now
rivalling the most fertile districts of the north
and south—where but a few years since existed a
poor and almost houseless population. Men of energy
had now sprung up, and the consequence of this
change was to be seen in the increased and increasing
traffic upon the railway—a traffic that he believed was
in its infancy. In extending their line to Cavan they
not only wished to accommodate that northern district
with railway facilities, but to meet, as it were, Bel-
fast half-way, and bring her merchants and her enter-
prise to the United States. When the universal demand
was for quick transit all over the world they must con-
tribute their quota of assistance, and as a move still
nearer to Belfast, they proposed to assist in the con-
struction of a line from Cagan to Clones, which, with the
contemplated project between Armagh and that town,
would open up the country from Belfast to Galway.
They had made but a very small addition to the capital
account during the half-year, and, as the various works
upon the line were in perfect order, he did not think
there would be much difficulty in closing the capital
account. They had now an available surplus of
35,0001., and he entertained the strongest anticipations
that when they came to make up their revenue account
to December next they would, in common with other
railways, feel the influence that one man's munificence
had exercised upon all branches of industry, and have
a larger surplus to acknowledge at the hands of William
Dargan. He concluded by moving the adoption of the
report.
Mr. PERRY seconded the motion, which was carried.
A dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum was
then declared out of the net profits of the past half-year,
and the retiring directors were re-elected.
The meeting was then made special, and the directors
were authorised to subscribe 33,0001. towards the con-
struction of a line of railway between the towns of
Armagh and Cavan, or from Clones to Cavan.
A vote of thanks to the chairman concluded the pro-
ceedings.
