We read in the Moniteur, under date Bucharest,
August 13
:
"The Ottoman troops, on entering our capital on the
Bth inst.; were saluted with loud and sincere acclama
tions. The Russian party did everything in their power
to create alarm and induce the inhabitants to fly on the
approach-of the Turks, but failed in their attempt. On

I3arcaneseo, J. Alexander Philippesco, Secretary of
State, and J. Philippesco. Minister of Finance, repaired

MEDICAL GRADUATES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LON-
I'ON.—The new act to extend the rights enjoyed by the
graduates of the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge,
in respect to the practice of physic, to the graduates of
the University of London, has just been printed. By
virtue of this act, graduates in the University of London
are called to practise physic in the same manner as gra-
duates of the other universities. Those graduates who
have acted without obtaining the authority of Oxford or
CaMbridge, belonging to the University of London, are
indemnified from law proceedings.
PAROCHIAL SCHOOLMASTERS IN SCOTLAND.—A some-
vvbat curious act of Parliament, passed in the last ses-
sion, has just been printed. In the reign of George 111.
an act was passed to regulate the salaries of the paro-
chial schoolmasters in Scotland, and they were regulated
according to the average price of " the fiar's price of
oatmeal." Such price was struck by the Barons of the
Exchequer, in 1828, at 171. 2s. 2d., and the act expired
last year. It is now enacted that the fiar's price shall
continue till Martinmas, 1855, and the salaries are to be
regulated in accordance with the same.
TEE MARKETS OF TEE WEST.—The cheering anticipa-
tions of a bountiful harvest in the West of England
in Devon, Somerset, Dorset, and Cornwall—have had a
powerful influence on the various markets in the several
counties. Wheat, a few weeks ago, was lOs 6cl and lls
per bushel, and the four-pound loaf was 9d, the dearness
of ,:vhich was, of course, very keenly felt by the working
classes. Since then the price of corn and, consequently,
bread has been considerably reduced. In some of the
largest markets in Devonshire—in Tiverton, Totness,
Barnstaple, Torrington, Newton Abbot, &c.—the price
of Wheat last week was down to 7s 6d and 8s per
bushel ; and bread is now selling at 'T,d per four-pound
I°4, and is likely to be further reduced. The price
of animal food is not so high as it was, and, judging
from the luxuriant appearance of the green crops, it
is likely to be much cheaper. Prime beef has been
selling in several markets at 10,4. per score ; and mutton
is about 6d per pound. In many instances farmers have
held large stocks of wheat, in the expectation that the
war with Russia woull have enabled them to command
higher prices, but in this they have been disappointed,
and are still likely to be, for the prospects of the harvest
are most (ratifying. The weather has been delightful,
and a very large quantity of wheat has been cut in De-
vonshire and the other counties. In the former county
a considerable quantity has been saved in excellent con-
dition, and, if the present fine weather continues for a
abort time longer, the wheat harvest will very soon be
satisfactorily completed. New barley was sold in the
Exeter market last Friday at 4s. to 4s. 6d. per bushel ;
and'new oats at 3s. per bushel. Some samples of new
wheat were also exhibited.
DUBLIN CUSTOMS.—The Customs duties received at
this port during the past week show an increase of 6601.

Last week several millowners and manufacturers of
lleckinondwyke were greatly inconvenienced by the
noti arrival of their workpeople, several hundreds of
N9,ll°lTl had gone to Liverpool on the Saturday pre-
v` ou`` by an excursion train, which train was announced
14: return on the Sunday and Monday afternoons, at five
Sungk each (IV. Accordingly, at the time stated on
Live poay, several hundreds were waiting at the station at
trai of to return home, when they were told that a
,
to would return that day ; consequently they had
Beek accommodatien for the night, and wait till the
Mondaygreatc afternoon. Many of them had to endure the
4t, privations owing to their not having calculated
oiben Staying longer than Sunday, and to depend on the
liberality of their companions in misfortune.
