*hethestowed the warmest encomiums.

The King's Theatre is expected to be• more brilliant
during the present season than it has been for many years.
Laporte has engaged all the great artistes, both in song and in
dance, that were to be had in Europe, and by his admirable
skill and management they will arrive in England and appear
in succession. The season will extent to forty-five or forty-
six nights. Nearly all the principal boxes and many of the

The London and Westminster Bank have been
made returners of the excise revenue for Surrey and Rochester
in KCnt. The appointment has taken place under the sanction of
tho Board of Excise, who have this power, and has caused, it
is said, much mortification to the Directors of the Bank of
England, who have used all means in their power, whether
fair or unfair, to keep down this rising competitor. It is
stated that the business is to be performed on terms very
favourable to the public.
MONUMENT TO LORD MILTON.—A public
meeting was held last week at Barrow school, near Went-
worth, totally unconnected with political feeling, and without
the knowledge of Earl Fitzwilliam's family, in order to consi,
der the best means of raising a subscription for the purpose
of erecting a monument to the memory of the late Viscount
Milton, in testimony of his virtue, amiable manners, and ta-
lents-. The edifice, like the Wilberforce testimonial, is de,
signed to combine utility with ornament.
The Clergy of this diocese are to meet on Tuesday

EXTRAORDINARY CAPTURE.—On Wednesday
morning, as one of the men belonging to the Exeter Gas
Works was proceeding to put out the lamps in Dix's Field, he
was surprised to find the lower lamp had been extinguished.
. Upon going up to the lamp he found it occupied by a fine par-
tridge, which hid flown into the lamp by breaking the glass on
one side, and by its fluttering had pia out the light. The man
carried the bird home, and put it into the cage of a magpie ;
but such such was its dislike to its new habitation, that, in its
effort to escape, it threw the cage down, and the door spring-
ing open, the poor bird regained its freedom and its native hills.

ST. GEORGE THE MARTYR, SOUTHWARK, AND
Sr. GILES, CAMBERWELL —SALARIES UNDER THE NEW POOk
LAW AMENDMENT BILL.—Some idea of the moderate work-
ings of this Bill may be gleaned from the following ap-
pointments in the parishes of St. George the Martyr, South-
wark, and St. Giles, Camberwell John Fitch, clerk
to the board of St. George, 3151. per annum; second clerk
to ditto, 105/. ; Mr. Hooper, surgeon, 110/. ; Mr. Evans,
I of ; Huish, relieving ocer, loot. ; Caslake, relieving
officer, 1001 ; two collectors of the poor rate at two per cent,
on the amount of collection. In St. Giles's, Camberwell, the
first clerk to the board has 3001. per annum ; the second,
1201. ; the two relieving officers, 2101. ; three assistants to the
board at salaries of 70/. per annum-210/. ; and four medical
officers, whose several salaries amount to 3401. The immense
sums of money squandered in the introduction of the Bill, the
contested elections for bolrds of guardians, and other contin-
gencies, has made the economical portion of the parishioners
begin to look about them.—Morningrost.
Ve have much pleasure in stating that the Ho-
nourable Baronet M P. for Westminster is rapidly recovering
from the severe illness he has suffered in consequence of the
fall he had from his horse. His friends flatter themselves that
in a short time he will be able to reaumt his usual occupations.
EXETER TOWN COU'ioll,..—To THE KING,—
The ExetorTown Counsel have unanimously passed a loyal and
constitutional address. We feel proud of the distinguished
position which the adoption of this address gives the liberals in
t'iis hitherto Tory-ridden city. The Tories were seized with
a panic when the address was proposed, and it was not till
they were convinced that a stronger one would be carried by
the burgesses at large if they refused their assent, that they
gave way, and—
'Vowing they never would consent—consented.

The address prays for the completion of all those measures
premised in the King's Speech I
LONG CREDIT, SORE WORK; • AND LITTLE
PAY.— cow-feeder new tho foot of Sitltmarket, Glasgow,
is in the habit of serving a customer with a halfpenny worth
of sweet.milk daily, and, in order to accomplish this sale,
the milkmaid has to travel on the street a distaneo of' 550
yards, then up and down four long stairs, amounting to 152
.3teps; thus making altogether 702 yards each time ! As this
customer is of what is called the genteel sort, they are not in
the habit of paying their account until it amounts to the sum
of One Pound Sterling ; she has, therefore, to perform this
journey no less than 480 times, which, when multiplied to-
gether, amounts to 336,960 yards, or upwards of 191 English
miles, and extends to a period of one year, three months,
three weeks, and four days. _ _

HYDROPIIOBIA.—We stated last week that C4ll-
- alarm was excited in this town ( and neigh-,
bourhood, from several mad dogs having been seen to bite
cattle, &c. We are now compelled to add a melancholy in-
stance of an attaok made by one on a female. About seven
weeks since Elizabeth Rawliag, of Emneth, thirty-Aine years
of age, and who was her father's honsdionp.r, Was feeding
her geese early in the morning% and was seized by a mad dog,
which graspe4 her by the arm and pulled her down, and bit
Ler on the ieg. The wound on the arm was large, was stewed
up we understand by a blacksmith, and to appearance
healed. No medical assistance tya?4 resorted too, nor did she
live in the loot allPrchension of any fatal consequence. On
gowdoy last she felt rather unwell, but supposed it to ho
rheumatism I the disorder increasing, on Monday Morning a
medical gentleman was sent for, whom she was in extreme
agony, craving food and drink, bot usable to swallow the
smallest particla) this affection she first felt an Sunday at
ttkAppqr, Under all the dreadful eficts of hydrophobia she
continued till Tuesday evening, when it terminated her exist-
ence.— afig4). Ogg elgonick
