WORCESTER GREAT FAIR.
WORCESTER, WEDNEALLY NIGIEIT.—The annual fair
for hops, stock, cheese. arid other agricultural' produce
of the district, was held here to-day. There was a very
limited supply of new hops brought to market, in con-
sequ-nce of the lateness of the season, picking having
only commenced in this county and Herefordshire (com-
prising the " Worcester district") last week, while many
yards have been left entonehed until the present week.
Hence the ustrd crowding of the hop pockets in the Hop
Market and adjacent streets is this year reduced to a
very limited supply, not sufficient to afford a basis for
fixing the price of the year's growth. The weather was
very fine, and there was a very large attendance at the
fair. Business, however, was very fist. About 200
pockets of new hops were brought to market, and the
general price asked Teas 7/, per cwt., though in the frelc s
effected, not more than 61. 10e. was obtained. The
sample web kenerally goods. but the crop is said to come
down light, and the duty is now estimated as low as
8,0001. in the district. The current prices to-day were
—For 1849 hops 6/ 6i•to Cl 108; 1848, 414 s to Si; 1846,
2l 8s to 31 ss. The cattle market was by no means
fully suppliA. There were 4,585 sheep penned, and
about 330 beasts, and 300 horses, and a tew pigs. Bee .
rather improved in price, Si to sid being realised;
mutton, 50. The cheese fair was well supplied, and
an average amount of business was done. Best 569 per
cwt., two meal 465, aud• family cheese from 30s to 351
per cwt.

SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY MORNING. —By the
steamer From Havre this morning accounts have nached
us that little or nothing was doing 3esterday in the

ST STEPHEN'S, WALEttooK.--Yesterday an ad-
jonrned meeting of the vestry of the joint parishes of
St. Stephen's. Walbrook, and St. Benet% Sherehog. was
held for the purpose of considering the necessity of dis•
continuing interments in the buiial ground attached W
the church and under that sacred edifice. Mr. Flight,
one of the churchwardens, being called to the chair' let"
ters were read from the Bishop of London and the Rev
Dr. Croly, the rector, approving of the contemplated
removal of interments. The closing of the ground and
church for burials being carried, measures were adopts('
for the purchasing of ground in some ot the c-metertis
in the outskirts of the metropolis, for the proper inter-
m. nt of the dead of the parish. The usual compliment
being paid to the chair, the meeting broke up.
TEE BLACK FLAG OF ST. SAVIOUR's.—We are
convinced that " truth " really " is strong, —straeget
than fiction." It is written in the Times that, at a vestry
meeting of St.
toedSaviour', Southwark, there was passed
del,berate resolution isobey an order of the Board of
Health for the closure of a certain graveyard in that
dint: called the " Cross-bones " burial ground. Vim"
existing circumstances, that this Vote can have
been
carried is less credible than the greatest lie in "
chansen." Perhaps some future historian, of more idle;
gination than chronology, will relate how the name of
St. Saviour's was given to this parish by popular irony
during the epidemic of 1849, and will cite in supp9ll Of
his conjecture the astounding fact above recorded.
The vestry men of St. Saviour's have made a bold stand
indeed against their sanitary aggressors. Of course
their motto is "No Surrender," meaning " won 1
give up our charnel!" Of course, also, they bare
nailed their flag to the mast, and it only remains for us
to observe that this flag is the " Death's head and Cross'
bones."—Punch.
BOLTON.—THE CASE OF CLAIRVOYANCE.--The
extraordinary recovery of 650/., through the alleged
agency of clairvoyance, has excited considerable interest,
not only in this bprough, but throughout the whole
oluntry. Mr. P. R. Arrowsmith, Mr. William Lomas,
his cashier, and Mr. Frederick Jones, of Ashburner-
street, have had many communications from different
parts of the country, from parties who have lost money
and are anxious fur its recovery. A person from Man-
chester, who was 101. deficient in his cash, has been at
Bolton, to obtain the aid of Mr. Haddock's clairvoyant
patient; but Mr. Haddock, who is an apothecary, has
his own business to attend to, and therefore declinr:l to
interfere in the matter. With regard to the discovery of
the 650/., there is no doubt whatever that is was sent to
the bank by Mr. Lomax in an envelope; that it was by
some means laid aside unopened, and got mixed up with
some loose papers, and that when application was made
at the bank (which was not until the expiration of five
weeks, when Mr. Lomax was balancing his cash), no
tidings could be had of the money. Mr. Lomax had no
evidence that he had sent the money ; and, although Mr.
Arrow.qnith had unlimited confidence in his integrity,
yet his state of mind may easily be imagined. He con-
sulted his friend Mr. Frederick Jones, who went with
him to the clairvoyant p vient of Mr. Haddock (who is
stated to have been the means of reenvering a cash-box
lost some time before, by Mr. Wood), and that the in-
formation she gave them led to the discovery of the
envelope and its contents, Broom; some waste paper in a
back room at the bank.—Monehe-ter Guardian.
