HALF-PAST ONE.

We understand that an arrangement has been sanctioned
by the Colonial-office, that notes from the colonial banks will
be taken as current money in the West Indies. This we sup-
pose, has been the cause of the rise in the Colonial Bank
Shares.

To the present hour we have no further arrivals, and great
dulness prevails in the city, both in respect to commercial
affairs and operations in the Funds.

As a mason of the name of John Arnett was on
Friday last employed at a house in Clive-street, North Shields,
he accidentally fell from the fourth story into the cellar, and
was to all appearances dead. After being carried home, in a
short time be began to show signs of animation, and is now
quite recovered.—Tyne Mercury.
BALLOON ASCENTS.—These perilous exhibitions
are now becoming common in all parts of the country. Among
others, a Mr. Hampton, who, it may be remembered, nar-
rowly escaped with his life in an affair of the kind in Lon-
don, has been ascending at Canterbury, where, last Thursday,
he had another very narrow escape from destruction, the
balloon being dragged about two miles on the ground.—
Evening Paper.
STATE OF TRADE.—There has been no change in
our market for several days past. The demand for yarn con-
tinues languid, and the prices are consequently depressed ;
but there is a good demand for almost all kinds of piece
goods, at steady and remunerating rates.—Manchester
Guardian.

Adalbert Von Chamisso, one of the most popular
modern poets of Germany, died some days ago at Berlin. He
was buried on the 23d ult. by the side of his deceased wife,
who preceded him only by a few months.
