THE LANCASHIRE ANDNORIISHIRE RAILWAY PORTERS
—The Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway porters at one
of the goods stations in Manchester had not asked 'for,
an advance of wages last week,• but were; no doubt
waiting to see what success the Other sections met with.
The zompany's manager, -Captain Laws; sent and offered
these men an -advance 'of .10 'per cent., which they ac-
cepted • and the others being informed of it, relinquished
.their daim t 0.15 percent., and acoeptedthe 10 per Cent.
advance.- The East -Lancashire porters have accepted
the 10 per cent. also. '•• ' ' ' • •
EMIQUATION., VIA LIVEREOOL.—The emigration from
this port during the past month has beengreater than in,
.the eerresponding month of any -previous year. The
number of ships which cleared 'out during the time was
54, carrying. ,20,888 emigrants, being 7,985 more th'aii
the preceding month of February. 'The passengers by
the vessels: which have taken their departUre hence for
the American ports have been composed - almost' entirely
of Irish, Germans, and Dutch. ' The German exodus
continues to roll on with increased bulk and rapidity.
YOUNG FRANCE.—In an order lately issued by the
prefect-of Calvados to close a low cafe, the following
reason for doing .so is assigned :—" Considering that,
amongst other facts which _have been clearly shown to
us, three children, aged _ seven, eight, and eleven years,
were served with 'coffee and. spirituous liquOrs for the
sum of 1f.'35e., and that the woman who keeps the Cafe
herself gave them a match. to _light their . pijies that,
furthermore, 'they were all drunk.when they left the pre-
mises, the eldest" having 'become se ill ,as to cause the
greatest anxiety to his parents; &c.
THE P.ARICS.— The princiPaLportion of. the footpaths
in. Hyde-park have received a fresh _coating of gravel,
&c., and pndergone. general. 'repair for . the ensuing sea-
.son. The small shingle which was at one time made use'
of for the 'purpose' has givenxise.to &mixture of gravel
and cinders, which is 'found to, harden the pathway in a
material' degree, and consequently- render the repairs
more durable and able to resist the effects of continued
rain. The change of wind, followed by general rains,
has already had the effect of altering the appearance of
the parks, and a .few days will doubtless, see the change
in the face of nature so welcOme and, gladdening at this
season of-the year.' •
