tance privately, and at previous prices holders were dis-
posed to sell.

CLEW BAY COPPER MINES, MAYO.—The operations
at these mines are maintained with increased activity
and promise. Captain Mates, in his last weekly report,
states—" Since my last report we have made great pro-
gress into the hill, and the appearance of the lode, which
is nearly a foot wide, would, I feel sure, make any
Cornish captain's teeth water ; for the rich purple ore
which came out of it yesterday (Wednesday) tells at
once the increasing value of this mine. The water spouts
out right well, and the mixture of quartz and splendid
greasy clay stamp it at once to be a mine that will ere
long pay more than its own working."
SURVEYOR-GENERAL.—We are enabled to state that
the office of Surveyor-General of the Ordnance has been
filled up by the appointment of Colonel the Hon. Lauder-
dale Maule. There will, in consequence, be a new elec-
tion for Forfarshire, but the return of the gallant colonel
will not be opposed. The new writ cannot be issued
until the meeting of Parliament a month hence.—Edin-
burgh, Courant.

SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.—It is a curious coinci-
cidence that two distinguished members of the present
Administration were born not only in the same street of
the same town, but also in the same house. It is well
known that the father of the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer, the late Sir John Gladstone, rose from small be-
ginnings to great wealth. When he "got above the
world" he built a substantial house on the north-west
side of Rodney-street, Liverpool, and there his dis-
tinguished son first saw the light. Subsequently, on
his removal to the suburban villa of Seaforth, the house
was tenanted by Mr. John Cardwell, of the firm of Card-
well and Co., of Blackburn, and soon afterwards the
present Right Eon. Edward Cardwell was born there.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Diseases of the Kidneys, Blad-
der, &c.—Dr. Denis Cronin has removed from Leicester-
place to 35, Bruton-street, Berkeley-square, where he
may be consuited, as usual, from ten till two, on his
treatment of affections of the kidneys, bladder, and
prostrate gland, in their connection with diseases of the
stomach and liver. 'Urinary Analysis (the importance
of which to the successful treatment of disease is now
fully acknowledged) conducted daily, in accordance
with Dr. D. Cronin's new tl'eory.
EXPORT OF COTTON AND YARN.—We have just been
favoured with a statement of the total value of cotton
goods and yarn exported from Liverpool and the Clyde
to Bombay, for each year from 1840 to 1852 inclusive ;
and it is curious to observe how stationary this branch of
our export trade has continued. In 1840 the total value
exported was 1,168,3241., and in 1852 it was 1,219,728/.
In 1842 the value was only 831,0241., and in 1844 it
rose to 1,588,304. The quantity, however, of the
different kinds.of goods exported shows a material varia-
tion in different years, which we shall take another
opportunity of adverting to.—Slipping Gazette.
