EMIGRATION TO AUSTRALIA. The departures from
the port of London for the Australian colonies during
the past week show a considerable increase, and the
vessels, with one exception, have been of the larger
class. They have comprised four to Sydney, with an
aggregate burden of 2,676 tonnage ; five to Port Philip,
with an aggregate burden of 2,626 tonnage ; two to
Adelaide, with an aggregate burden of 1,252 tonnage ;
two to Hobart-Town, with an aggregate burden of 704
tonnage ; and one to Portland Bay, of 851 tons. Their
total capacity consequently was 8,109 tons. The ship-
ments of manufactures and ordinary descriptions of mer-
chandise have been large, and the rates of freight con-
tinue to exhibit a tendency to decline. The Emigration
Commissioners have advertised for n vessel to carry
emigrants to Melbourne and to Victoria. She is to be
ready for passengers on the Bth of August.
IMPORTANT DISCOVERY AND INVENTION FOR GRINDING
WHEAT.—We observe by the journals that Westrup's
conical mills are exciting great attention. A working
model was before the Institute of Civil Engineers last
week ; another is in the Dublin Exhibition ; a third was
in the Great Exhibition, and gained the prize. Mills
are already erected in London, France, Austria, Bel-
gium, and Mexico. The mills in London are working
night and day, grinding three times the quantity of the
ordinary mills, and yet unable to supply a tithe of the
demand. The eminent Dr. Thomson, F.R.S.E., has
certified from analysis that the flour made 2 mn the
conical mills contains one-fourth more of nutritious
matter—we presume gluten—than that produced by the
common process. We:observed one of the patentees
(Mr. Northouse) on the Bench yesterday at the Town-
hall, and infer from thence that as our town mills were
intended for the common good, that a system which
makes more and better bread will be adopted at Cam-
bridge. It is stated that the saving in quantity annually
from the wheat now consumed in this country would be
(in the event of the adoption of the conical principle)
not less than eighty-one million quartern loaves, which,
at 6d. each, makes the prodigious money saving of up-
wards of two millions sterling.—Cambridge Independent.

years old.—Extract of a letter from Mr. Illsop, druggist,
Lincoln, dated April 4, 1853 :—To Professor Holloway.
Dear Sir,—Among the numerous cures effected by your
valuable medicines, permit me to inform you of the fol-
lowing : Mrs. Mary Jackson, residing in this town, 75
years of age, had a dreadful bad leg for upwards of five
months ; there were three sores on it, and it was swollen
to an immense size. Every person that saw it thought
that she would not recover : however your ointment and
pills alone have perfectly cured it.—Sold by all Drug-
gists, and at Professor Holloway's Establishment, 244, ,
