BORTHERNDISTRICT OF BURGHS.—Mr. Demp-
ster, of Skibo, county of Sutherland, has at length an-
nounced his intention of contesting the representation of the
Northern Burghs, on Conservative principles, at the next
election, with the present Member, James Loch, Esq. The
burghs are Kirkwall, Wick, Dornoch, Tain, Cromarty, and
Dingwall. It is said that in Tain Mr. Dempster has secured
a majority, but that in Wick (the principal burgh of the dis-
trict) there will be an overwhelming majority for Mr. Loch,
whose re-election is considered certain. The Honourable
Member, however, should not repose on this assurance, but
be active, attentive, and vigilant with respect to his constitu-
ents and their local interests. It is admitted on all hands
that no Member of the Liberal party is more attentive to his
Parliamentary duties.—lnverness Courier.
MANCHESTER AND STOCKPORT RAILWAY.—
The Stockport length of the Manchester and Birmingham
Railway has been commenced by the contractor, Mr. John
Brogdon, of Manchester, in good earnest, ne,rly half a mile
of ground from Blaebrook to this town having already been
broken. About 150 men are engaged in the cutting ; and
already has one of the main depths of 22 feet been obtained
and cleared out a considerable distance, in which temporary
rails arc being placed for the purpose of carrying the super-
fluous soil away towards Manchester, where great quantities
will be required to fill up the declivities. Mr. Brogc'e t's inten-

twenty months. The immense viaduct over Heaton-land and
the liver Mersey is to be proceeded with immediately; and
the line to the point of junction with the Grand Junction Rail-
way, at Chebsey, near Stone, is to be now pushed forward as
quickly as possible.—Stockport Advertiser.

Last night, at seven o'clock, an inquisition was
taken before Mr. Stirling, Coroner, and a respectable Jury,
at the Buffalo's Head, New-road, on view of the body of
Joseph Phillips, aged 40, who was found drowned in the
ornamental water in the interior of the Regent's-park. On
searching the body three receipts for wages, signed " Joseph
Phillips," also a paper on which was written " E. E. Wheate-
ley, Esq.'s footman," and 9s. 3d. in money, were found upon
him. There were no marks of any violence on the body.
Mr. E. 'Watkins, of High-street, surgeon, said he attended the
deceased professionally for some months past; be was labour-
ing under delirium tremens, produced by excessive drinking ;
in witness's opinion he was at times of unsound mind. Ver-
dict—Temporary mental derangement.

A gentleman left Greenock on Tuesday, 13th curt.
by the City of Glasgow steamer, at half-past 2 P.m., arrived
at Liverpool next morning at ten, attended to business there
during the 19th, and started at half-past 3 for Birmingham,
remained three hours, and proceeded for London at midnight;
was in London from half-past 6 A.M. till half-past 8 1.. M. of
the 20th, and returned by the same route to Greenock, stop-
ping 31- hours at Birmingham and 2 hours in Liverpool, and
arrived at Greenock, per the Unicorn, at half-past 8 A.m. on
Saturday.—Edinburgh Evening Courant.

CURE FOR HYDROPHOBIA.—In Poland, when a
man is bitten by a mad dog, a minute examination, instituted
a day or two after, will bring to light a small red swelling, or
a collection of minute pustules, under the tongue of the pa-
tient, which should be cut out, and strong caustic applied to
the part. Our Consul is acquainted with individuals who have
repeatedly witnessed the success of this mode of treatment ;
and if it appear incredible, it is not more so than what is here
asserted with confidence—the effect of cold water on the head
as an antidote to prussic acid.—Elliott's Travels in Austria,
Russia, and Turkey.

A BRA NDY-1300R.—A " brandy-boor" now came
on the mountain ; that is, a farmer with a waggon-load of
wine and spirits, who tried to dispose of " liquid damnation"
(as a fanatical person at the Cape used to term brandy) to the
Namaquas. This boor,was commonly known by the sobriquet
of Cobus Belle, as he was a big, red-faced man, with very
coarse manners. He sold his wine for a rix-dollar, or eigh-
teen-pence the bottle, and his brandy for two shillings. I gave
a hint to the corporal to look after the people, and prevent
their drinking at the brandy waggon ; and accordingly, Cobus
Belle wended his way from the station, complaining of the
badness of the roads, of the cold of the mountain, and, above
all, of the armoedigheid (poverty) of the people, which pre-
vented their dealing with him.—Sir James Alexander's Ex-
pedition of Discovery into Africa.
TEA-NI A K ING IN R USSI A.—Each country, almost
each province, offers peculiarities to the observation of a
stranger. Some of these are trifling in themselves, yet not
without interest. To this class belongs the habit, here pre-
valent, of substituting lemon for milk in tea. A slice of the
fruit is banded round with each cup, and the excellence of
the flavour thus communicated to the beverage attests the
good taste of those who adopt the custom. Some credit,
however, may be due to the tea itself; for it is certain that
in no country in Europe is the article imported in such per-
fection as in Russia. Conveyed by land through the medium
of the large fairs at Ladak and Nijni Novgorod, it retains the
virtue of which a sea voyage is said to deprive it ; while its
grateful flavour is much enhanced by the leaves of the olea
fragrans, with which the Chinese pack it for a land journey.
—Elliott's Travels.

There he sot, with his hat on, a cigar in his mouth,
his arms folded, and his feet over the rail, looking as sour as
unripe lemon. " Bring up them culprits," said he, and when
they were brought up, he told 'em it was scandalous, and only
fit for English and ignorant foreigners, that sit in the outer
porch of darkness, and not high-minded intelligent Americana.
You are a disgrace," said he, "to our great nation, and I
hope I shall not hear the like of it again. If I do, I'll i you
on your trial as sure as you are born. I hope I may be skinned
alive by wild cats if I dont."—Sam Slick.

Considerable sensation has been excited in Madrid
by a murder committed by M. Rodriguez, the Deputy, on the
person of his wife, a young and beautiful woman, to whom he
was married about two years ago at Seville. M. Rodriguez,
who is exceedingly jealous, accompanied his lady to a masked
ball, given by M. Vinadores. His wife's brother was amongst
the guests incognito, and wishing to cure his brother-in-law of
his failing, imprudently accosted him with an inquiry if he was
still as jealous as ever. " I am at all events not jealous of
you, beau masque," was the reply. " There you are wrong,"
said the mask, " for you have a very handsome wife, with
whose charms I am deeply smitten." "'So much the worse
for you," retorted M. Rodriguez. " By no means," said
the -brother, " for your wife returns my affection, and,
as a proof of it, I can inform you that she has a violet
mark under her right bosom." At these words M.
Rodriguez seized the stranger with the utmost violence
by the hand, exclaiming, " Your life or mine l Meet
me in a quarter of an hour at my house." He then tore his
wife from the quadrille which she was dancing, and, without
saying a word to her, hurried her home. On reaching his hotel,
he ascended the staircase with his wife still on his arm, dragged
her into his cabinet without procuring a light, opened his se-
scretary, and, taking from it a loaded pistol, placed the muzzle
close to his wife's bosom, and shot her through the heart. At
the report a number of domestics, accompanied by the ill-fated
lady's brother, who had been the involuntary cause of this
frightful catastrophe, rushed into the room with lights. On
witnessing the dreadful sight which met his eyes, the brother
tore off his mask, and proclaimed his near relationship to thes
victim. The disclosure deprived the wretched husband of his
senses, and he was hurried from the spot in a state of raving
madness, which the Madrid Correspondent whom w
e fears, but we might perhaps more charitably hope, he will not
survive. Galignani's Messenger. quoter

The weather during the early weeks of the month was pro.;
pitious ; brighter, warmer, and more genial than that of Sep.,
tember, 1837. The harvo2ting of corn went on cheerily, anct
the farmers, speaking of the spilng crops, were of one mi- -
and voice—" beautiful—abundant." The intervals of rai,
were propitious to turnips, injurious to notideg, unless;
cases where, hurried by their apprehensions, some rem
may hale carried a little wheat too soon, and which woul4
have lost in one day more the very slight degree of moisture*
that furnished a pretence for the outcry of kiln drying. The.
fine weather deserted us in the third week, and fogs, chi3iy
nights, and at length an abundance of rain, conferred on Sep-f,'
tember its true character. As respects the corn counties they
harvest is concluded, of which we shall report more particu.,
larly when we hear the results of thrashing. Some patches,
of wheat certainly never recovered plant, others wertl
ploughed up too hastily, and thus less has been grown ; but,
in general, the strength and bulk of plant and ears have corn*
pensated the effects of winter damage. We must POW adver4
to Scotland, whence, subsequent to our August report, Me,
have that of the Quarterly Journal of Agriculture. ne far
lo Is in g is a summary of its contents :--

The year has been unpropitious to field crops, with little
warmth, and a prevalence of rain and cloudy skies. Oats are,.
a fair crop every where; in the upper districts late. Barley
is also pretty good on dry easy soils—on poor soils thin. Po.
tatoes various, somewhat injured by stagnant water in places
where failures are spoken of. Swedish Turnips, sown early
before the rains began to fall intermittingly, may be a fair
crop, October being the swelling month for the turnip. On
the east coast all turnips are inferior to those on the west.
Wheat looks well everywhere, and, though thin on poor soils,
it is large cared. On examination, however, it is found to be
partially injured by the maggot of the turnip-fly, the ravages
of which are grievously complained of
_in the west and south-
west of England.

All the white crops are highly spoken of in the border coun-
ics of both countries.

We entreat the reader to consider the following short ex-
tract, because it points out the confirmed opinion of our acute
and persevering brethren of the North on the advantages se-
cured by agricultural improvements :—" This season is neither
so late nor so wet, nor the crop so bad, as in the years 1816,
1817. It approaches more in character to the season of
1828 ; and let us never forget that the improved condition of
the soil is now so much superior to what it was in 1828, and
much more so than in 1817, that the same degree of wet and
cold weather can never again produce the same injurious
effects." We trust that the beautiful and warm weather in the
last week of August, and which lasted so long in September,
' has changed the views of the Scottish agriculturist, and raised
his just expectations.
We never observed the soil so arid as it lately appeared to
be. Farmers complained that they could not plough ; and in
fact till the 18th inst. the quantity of rain amounted to little—
a, mere superficial moistening. Now, however, the soil is
brought into a mellow, working condition, and preparations
for wheat sowing will soon be in an active state.
Prices arc all high every where of live stock, as of grain
crops. The consequence has been, the demand for foreign
corn has rapidly raised prices in the foreign ports. As high as
655. have been asked at Hamburg. The crops and weather
in the north of Europe are spoken of as bad and late.
We repeat that the high prices of the necessaries of life is
a national calamity, were it for no other reason than that as-
signed by the Edinburgh reporter, namely, that it tends "to
excite discontent amongst that class of operatives who receive
the highest wages, and amongst manufacturers whose conti-
nual effort is exerted to reduce the wages of work-people, in
order to obtain the higher profits to themselves."
A few auroral and meteoric phenomena have occurred, and
persons, as we read, predict a very hard winter. If we are not
greatly deceived these suffusions are immediate precursors of
changes, being conditions of electrico-magnetic mutations.
Have not those observed been the agents of the late alteration
from drought to great moisture ?

HORTICULTURAL NOTICE FOR

OCTOBER.

The extremely dry weather that prevailed in September, as
far as we were enabled to observe, rendered the soil of some
gardens perfectly arid to the 21st of the month. Now, this
state did some injury to the American plants ; young kal-
mias, rododendrons, and azaleas drooped or lost their leaves ;
such, however, as were well and deeply rooted, suffered least.
Of garden vegetables, kidney beans were devoured by red
spiders (acarus), which have been locally prevalent of late to
a great extent. The early and September ripe potatoes have
generally been digged in prime condition—clean, dry, and
most abundant. The late rains have made the soil open and
free, and therefore the few operations of the season may, tinder
existing circumstances, be perfected.
As the potato plots are got ready, the August cabbage
plants can be introduced advantageously. October is the
season wherein the garden should assume that pleasing quiet
appearance of neatness and form which is so agreeable to
good judges. Ranks of young cabbages in drills. The early
spring trench planted brocoli properly earthed, winter spinach
plots hoed and hand-weeded. All the spaces between rows
clean, of a sober brown hue.

In the fruit departments (where the berry-bearing tribes are
grown in plots) the surface should be digged and turned
over two inches deep ; in a word, all parts of the garden, as
the crops come off, left neat ; the soil trenched and ridged if
clammy, and turned with the spade if light and free. Some
persons sow early peas, magazan beans, salading, &c., and a.
crop may be obtained occasionally. It were wise to transfer
to a frame a good number of cos lettuces, small plants, and
where also a sprinkling of short-top or salmon radishes
may succeed well. Cauliflower seeding plants, raised in
August, for the purpose of going under hand-glasses or
into frames, should be transplanted before the 'last week.
Michaelmas cauliflowers have ,been coming on for some
time ; they are apt to be very foul with the caterpillar.
Celery is now large and fine, if earthing-up have been
duly attended to • repeat the moulding ridgways during
dry intervals. Endive plants are to be tied up, and others
moved to frames, for winter protection and blanching.
In the fruit garden the wall trees will still retain much fruit,
for the season is weeks in arrear. We do not recommend
pruning now, choosing early spring as the season of regulating.
Direct, useless, forerights may be cut off, and the trees left
with freedom f motion. Clear away litter, remove some of
the border soil, and substitute fresh turfy loam. Every kind
of tree will do well if carefully transplanted about the middle
or latter end of tie month.

Many vines will not ripen their fruit. Green grapes, with
white sugar only, will make one of the finest white 4ines ;
therefore let every vacant wall be covered with vines.
The flower garden must be well kept. Dahlias ought to
have three or four stakes, properly arranged, as props of
support against wind from every quarter. Chrysanthemums
are best trained to walls, Pinks and carnation plants
can be increased by taking up the old plants, slipping off
the best shoots, and planting them deeply in fresh-moved
soil, and surrounding the stems with road sand and a lit-
tle light leafy manure. Pinks frequently abound with fi-
bres ; we acted thus last year, having lost all the pipings..
Sow mignonette in pots to go into frames, sweet peas in rows
and patches. Pruning and removing litter, with raking or
Dutch hoeing, after the leaves are chiefly fallen, will render
the surface neat. .

If the greenhouse plants remain out no More time shouli be
lost. We have cause to remember what our Octobers of late
years have been capable of !
The store plants must have fire, but low temperature and
tcrpidity are preferable to high excitirg beat.
The vineries should be whitewashed, after inspecting the
flues ; the woodwork and lights plinted once or twice in oil.

A greengrocer named Hall, residing in Fan-street,
Aldersgate-street, was committed for trial from Guildhall on
Thursday, on a charge of violently assaultiug his wife. The
accused had been previously committed fifteen times for simi-
lar assaults. The wife thought his mind had become affected.
through excessive drinking.
A fellow named Campbell was on Thursday fined
la by the Magistrates of Lambeth-street, and in default of
payment committed to the treadmill for -two months, for seve-
ral gross and unprovoked assaults on persons residing at Strat-.
ford, where he had been the terror of the neighbourhood for
some time. He appears to have been the leader of a gang of
ruffians like himself, and backed by them, endeavoured to
resist the officers sent to arrest him.

Upon the arrival of the Rob Roy steam-ship from
Hamburgh, at Hull, on Tuesday morning week, Captain
Frost jocosely remarked to one of the boatmen of the Cus-
toms, as the boat boarded the vessel, that they were likely to
have an increase, not of smuggled goods, but of right legal
product. Without further ado, the boatmen were despatched
with all haste for Mr. Lowther, and within half an hour after
the surgeon's arrival on board, a passenger was safely delivered
of two female children, which the officers very unhesitatingly
refused to take to the Customhouse for inspection.—Leeds
Intelligencer.
Saturday morning, the men who were digging gravel
in the field behind the Royal Hospital came upon the remains
of a human body, about two feet and a half below the surface.
They were evidently the remains of an ancient warrior. Not
a vestige of anything like a coffin was discovered, but a sword
of above three feet in length was found. It is unfortunately
broken into three pieces, from the carelessness of firemen dig-
ging. There is the head of a spear, and the top part.a_!
