HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

We hear respecting the Ambassadors of the Powers who would not
agree to join Lord Palmerston in his answer to the King of Holland,
that it was owing to their wishing to have further instructions from
their different Courts on the subject. The Batavier has not as yet
arrived.

Since the early part of the morning an improvement has taken place
in the British Market. Consols, which wore Daft, are at present Daft
This may be attributed to there being bears in the above Stock. Exche-
quer Bills, 66 69 ; India Bonds, 73 ; Bank Stock, 2051- ex div.

THREE 0' CLOCK

FEROCITY OF RAVENS.—A few days ago some
ravens made an attack on the sheep of Mr. Watson, of Long-
thwaite Green, in Brackenthwaite, and actually pecked out
the eyes of five sheep, whilst Mr. Watson and his men were in
sight, and notwithstanding their utmost exertions to put these
formidable opponents to flight.—Manchester Guardian.
MUNINIERY.—We are informed by the Lincoln
Gazette, that on Sunday last (Palm Sunday), the ancient,
but assuredly extremely ridiculous, as well as most indecent,
custom of the whip-gad cracking was gone through, as usual,
the first lesson three loud cracks near the church door, in the
second lesson, the gad is held over the parson's head during
the time he is reading it.

The Somerset County Gazette says that at the
Assize Ball last week but few persons were present. This
fact is gratifying, since it seems to afford some evidence of im-
provement. There is without doubt an incompatibility, not
to say an indecency, in dancing and revelry at a time when
not merely the fortune and reputation of so many are at stake,
but the lives as well as property of our fellow men are in
peril.
STONEHAVEN.—We are sorry to say that small-
pox, in a good many instances, have proved fatal of late here.
IRISH TASTE.—Although his Lordship (says an
Irish Journalist) is not himself very savoury, he is a subject
that will keep.
