Contrary to expectation the weather turned out very favourable,
and the course was in consequence very fully attended. The sport,
however was not good enough to require any particulars in addition
to those sent from the Heath. In the evening the Two Thousand
Guineas Stakes and the Portland Handicap were speculated upon
to a considerable amount, at odds differing materially from those
quoted at Tattersall's. The closing prices were as follow :

When Bacon's equestrian statue of William
was erected, a few years ago, in St. James's-square, an indivi-
dual, who was then intimate with an ultra Orange Peer, got
on the pedestal and commenced decorating the statue with a
profusion of orange. coloured ribbons, until his progress was
interrupted by the proper authorities, who obliged him to dis-
mount and take himself off with his laurel and ribbons : the
folly has not been since repeated.
By letters from Tarsus we learn that the cotton crop,
which in 1834 had been in the province of Adana to the extent
of 37,000 bales, of the weight of 80 to 100 ocques each, had
not exceeded last year more than two-thirds of that quantity,
in consequence of the excessive heat of the summer, and the
great drought that had prevailed during a period of six conse-
cutive months. It appears that the only French house esta-
blished at Tarsus, and which had been there during a period
of eight years, was about to quit it for the purpose of forming
sn establishment at Beyrout, which it was considered would
be an almost abandonment, so far as Europeans were concerned,
of the trade of the former place.
The Prussian commercial league of 11,800 square
miles (German) of superficies, and 36 millions of inhabitants,
which Germany possesses, the Customs' union now embraces a
superficies of 8,200 square miles, and 25 millions of inhabi-
tants.—Journal de Frankfort.
At the Aberdeen Synod there was a much larger at-
tendance of country members than usual, and the consequence
was, that the moderate party carried all before them. The
decision in regard to Presbyterial Visitations, adopted at last
meeting of Synod, was overturned by a majority of 47 to 18;
and the proposed alteration in the mode of electing Elders
was, by the same majority, and at the same time, condemned.
The moderate party, now that they have got uppermost, are
resolved to maintain their position ; and, in order the more
effectually to do so, they have appointed the next meeting of
the Synod to take place at Banff. Of course, this is to render
attendance more inconvenient to the Ministers and Elders of
Aberdeen, by whose numbers the moderates think they have
hitherto been swamped.—Aberdeen Herald.
A lamentable occurrence took place at Billericay on
Sunday, the 10th inst. A person, to whose care two children
about two years old were entrusted to nurse, having left her
house to speak to her sister who lives close by, on her return
found both the children enveloped in flames. One of the little
sufferers died in the course of the day, and the other is not
likely long to survive.—Essex Herald.
The Caroline brig sailed on Tuesday afternoon from
this port for Quebec : she is the first vessel this season, and
had only eight passengers. The early period of the season,
together with the present prosperous condition of the artizans
and labourers in the native country, may be assigned as the
apparent reasons for the limited number sf emigrants in the
Caroline.—Berwick Advertiser. _ _

We find the following announcement in the Dublin
Pilot of Friday ; we know not whence the writer derives its
authority, and we give it without placing much credence in
it :—" Lady Mary Talbot, daughter of the Earl of Shrews-
bury, is about being united to the King of Naples."
The export of iron ore, slate, and copper ore, from
the port of Ulverstone, is, at this moment, unprecedeutedly
great.
A boy in the employ of Mr. S. Dark, of West La-
vington, whilst engaged in ploughing last week, by some means
fell, and the plough being dragged over him, injured him so
severely as to occasion his death.
English cookery is by no means agreeable, as every
body is obliged to bite and chew twice as much as in France,
Italy, and Germany, which is trying enough to young teeth,
but utter destruction to the old masticators.— Von Roomer.
On Tuesday night a meeting of the inhabitants of
Edinburgh was held in the Cowgate Chapel, for the purpose
of petitioning Parliament for the entire and immediate aboli-
tion of the Annuity Tax ; and also to take into consideration
the proceedings of the Edinburgh clergy, in regard to the im-
prisonment of Councillor Russell and Mr. Chapman.
There are large quantities of beef in joints and live
sheep imported into this country, and landed at the metropo-
litan wharfs constantly from Scotland, notwithstanding which
beef and mutton continue to rise in price. In addition to this
supply of food the importation of pork and butter from Ireland
is very great. Scotland and Ireland also furnish our fish
markets with abundance of the best fresh salmon, of prime
quality, when in season.
THE FRENCH MURDERERS.—At the meeting of
the Phrenological Society, held on Monday evening, Dr.-El-
liotson, the President, gave an account of his examination of
casts of the sculls of Fieschi, Lacenaire, A vril, and David, who
have lately been executed in France, under circumstances of
particular notoriety. The head of Fieschi was described of a
middling size, the forehead being poor and retreating, the co.
ronal surface sloping and bad, whilst the organs of firmness,
self-esteem, and love of approbation, were very large, and cau-
tiousness small. In David, the forehead was large, but rather
retiring,
and the organs of veneration, firmness, secretiveness,
and the love of approbation, were enormous. Laccnaire pos-
sessed a forehead distinguished for every intellectual quality,
but the animal feelings were large ; he was described as a man
of high classical and intellectual attainments and literary _
ac-
quirements, and to have reasoned himself to the commission of
suicide. In Avril, the forehead was low, exhibiting a wretched
,intellect and a low scale of moral feeling, quite inaacyceordmauneciel
with all his previous habits. These descriptionsg
isatisfaction to the members present, amor whom were some
of the most distinghished phrenologists o the metropolis.

• SCOTCH SEQUESTRATION. •
JAMES BURNET, bookseller, Leith, April 2.b and May 11, at
two, at the Royal Exchange Coffee-house, Edinburgh.

The Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, who came to town
to attend the meeting of Peers at Apsley House, left Mivart's
Hotel for his villa at Richmond Hill. His Lordship seldom
visits his residence Mount Edgcumbe, near Devonport,
where the chief portion of his estates are situated. A con-
siderable part of the town of Stonehouse, between Lime-
house, Plymouth-dock, and Davenport belongs to his
Lordship. Lord and Lady Valletort and family have arrived
at Mouut Edgcumbe from Geneva.
A few days ago, several houses were totally con-
sumed by fire, at Sommaing, near Cambray, in the North of
France, through the vengeance of a jealous wife. The spouse
Of a worthy weaver of cambrics, having become suspicious of
the fidelity of her husband, determined to put an end to his
wanderings by involving him and herself in one common de-
struction. With this intention, she set fire to a ciu laity of
straw in the garret of their dwelling, and then went down to
the cellar and turned the key upon the poor weaver, who was
busily employed at his loom. He was soon afterwards alarmed
by cries of fire ; but finding the door fastened, he called to his
wife to open it; she, however, remained industriously turning
I:er spinning-wheel, and replied—" No, no! broil, broil, you
gay deceiver ! We will both be broiled together !" The wea-
ver, however, succeeded in bursting open the door, and escaped
with his tender wife, just as the roof was about to fall in upon
them, and broil them to a cinder. The woman is said to be
c•ut of her mind.
BREAD, GIN, AND MUSIC.-oa. Saturday evening
a new baker's shop was opened in the New-cut, Lambeth. A
full band of music was in attendance, and each of the customers
eras promised a glass of something comfortable. Whether the
quality of the bread or the blue ruin were predominant is not
known, but from the time of opening (five o'clock) up to half-
past ten, the extraordinary number of 1,890 four-pound loaves
were disposed of. It is a positive fact, that during the evening
such a dense crowd of persons assembled in front of the house,
as to render the road next to impassable.
At some tavern brawl which took place near Hurlet,
on Saturday week, a man was so much injured, as to endanger
Ids life. Several persons implicated in the affray arc in cus-
tody.—Scots Times.
A great number of poor men, accompanied by their
v.ives and families,. have passed through this city, during the
