ade by them to
the Government for information on the subject of
raising the blockade of Buenos Ayres by the British
and French naval forces in the river Plate :
"Foreign-office, Sept. 2, 1847.
" Gentlemen,—l am directed by Viscount Palmer-
ston to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the
Ist instant, in which you request to be informed
whether her Majesty's Government has received in-
formation as to the point of the reported raising of
the blockade of Buenos Ayres by the British naval
force in the river Plate, and also whether Lord
Palmerston can inform you if the French have con-
curred in that measure and were pursuing the same
Course.
" I am to state to you in reply, that her Majesty's
Government have received a dispatch from Lord
llowden, dated off Monte Video, the 15th of July
last, in which his Lordship reports that he had autho-
rised the commander of the British naval force in the
river Plate to raise the blockade of Buenos Ayres, in
so far as the vessels under his command were con-
cerned. But her Majesty's Government have as yet
received no information as to whether the French
authorities in the river Plate have concurred in that
measure, and have raised the blockade on the part of
the French naval force.

Provost of Cupar, in the course of the entertainment,
expressed the thanks of his fellow-townsmen, and con-

acknowledged the Provosts courtesy in appropriate

SHOCKING OCC
LINCOLN;
BARTON•UPON-HUMI3ER, SUNDAY.
On the morning of Friday, the 27th ult., an Irish •
man, named Kane, had finished harvesting for Mr.
Spencer, a farmer, the overseer of Horkstow parish,
a.ud bailiff to the Hon. Mrs. Tufnell. Kane had with
him his wife and six children, four of whom, with the
mother, were ill of fever, and the poor woman was
also in the last stage of pregnancy. About noon on
the above day the woman, feeling the pains of labour
approaching, desired her husband to go to Mr.
Spencer. and obtain his permission or them to re-
main in the stable until the Monday morning.
Spencer refused to allow them to remain there any
longer, and, passing the stable door shortly after,
asked the woman whether she was brought to bed ?
She said she was not, but felt very poorly. Finding
herself worse she afterwards begged her husband,
" for the honour of God," to go a second time to Mr.
Spencer, and intreat him to allow her to remain.
Kane did so, and told him his wife was not fit to
be removed, and that she was very ill. Spencer,
however, again refused, made up the man's money,
and told him he should not have a farthing of it
until he brought his wife and family into the road,
and taken them fairly off the premises. Kane then
begged for a cart in which to take his wife to
Winterton, a neighbouring village, where he ex-
pected to find a lodging-house in which his wife might
be confined. Spencer said there was no cart to be
had, and mounted a stack which his men were making
in the rickyard, after again telling the Irishman that
he would not pay him for his reaping until he had
brought his wife and children out of the stable into
the road. The poor woman then made shift to get up
and walk into the road, and on seeing her there with
her six children, four of whom were shivering from
the fever, Spencer came down the stack and paid
the man the money owing to him, 11. l 9s. They had
not proceeded 20 yards before the woman felt so
much pain that she was compelled to sit down on the
roadside, and she told her husband she was afraid she
should be confined " before she got anywhere?' Two
Irishmen here came up, and, seeing her state, they
wanted to carry the woman back to the stable she had
left and force her in, even against Spencer's consent.
The miserable woman, however, again summoned
strength to proceed on her painful journey, but
before she could reach the next village, South Fer-
riby, about a mile distant from Horkstow, she was
forced to sit down two or three times by the way,
surrounded by her compassionating children and her
husband, who were compelled to he the witnesses of
anguish which they could do nothing to relieve. Be-
tween four and five o'clock the family reached South
Ferriby, and here in the middle of the public
street the poor creature was obliged to lie
down against the wall of a cottage, and
within five paces of the cottage door. The pangs
of labour came on, and the husband in the greatest
distress of mind hurried from farm-house to farm-
house, imploring permission to bring his wife into any
barn or stable. He does not appear to have thought
for a moment of asking shelter for his wife in any of
the cottages in the street in which she lay, nor was
any such asylum offered to her. The children of the
village, of all ages, soon drew round the wretched
woman, and gazed with curious and inquisitive eyes
upon throes and sufferings of which they could so
little understand the cause ; while she, with an in-
stinctive delicacy which every mother will under-
stand, even in that hour of nature's hardest trial,
stifled her cries as well as she could, out of a certain
respect and shrinking, from that young circle of spec-
tators. Some of the women of the village looked on
at various degrees of distance, but no one came to
render her any help. She called out, and one woman,
herself the mother of five or six children, at length
came up, but was too frightened to remain, and went
away "to get assistance," it being ten minutes, ac-
cording to her own account, before she returned !
For half an hour did this poor Irishwoman, accord-
ing to the statement which I received from her own
lips, lie in the High-street of the village, before
any one came to her assistance. When her
husband returned to tell her that he could not
get her an asylum even in a barn or a stable, the
woman had, alone and unassisted, given birth to a
female child, which she wrapped up and protected from
the cold as well as she could in her tattered garments.
Some of the cottagers at length came up, and the
mother and the infant, which gave no signs of life,
were removed to the stables of the Nelthorpe Arms,
a public-house in the village. No medical man appears
to have been sent for until 24 hours afterwards, when
gr. Morley, a surgeon of Barton-upon-Humber,
medical officer of the district, attended, upon the
order of the overseer of the parish of South Ferriby.
He found the woman very ill, and delirious from the
effects of fever, as well as from the circumstances of
her exposure, and he immediately ordered her re-
moval from the stable in which she lay with her
children to a room in the inn, where she now remains.
On the following day the poor woman was visited by.
the:Abbe Canut, the Roman Catholic priest of Barton-
upon-Humber, who performed the ministrations of
his church, and who has since manifested great sym-
pathy for the hapless family. Mr. Morley's attention
and humanity have also been highly praiseworthy.
Three of the children, of the respective ages of 10, 8,
and 2 years, were yesterday lying in the stable, help-
less, and shivering from the fever, covered up with a
few miserable rags, while a third hild, between 4 and
5 years old, is lying in bed with the mother, both of
them also being ill with the fever. To-day the
mother is somewhat worse, and she remains in a dan-
gerous state.

THE INQUEST.
An inquest was held on Thursday last, at the Nel
thorpe Arms, South Ferriby, before Mr. G. Marris,
coroner, on view of the body of a female infant, the
daughter of Andrew and Mary Kane, when the fol-
lowing evidence was taken :
Andrew Kane, of the county of Mayo, kingdom of
Ireland, labourer, upon his oath saith—l am the
father of the infant the jury have just now seen lying
dead in the parish church of Ferriby. My wife was
brought to bed on Friday last about two o'clock in
Ferriby town street. I was not present ; I was
looking out for a barn in which to place my wife. I
and my wife had been working harvest in the parish
of Horkstow, under Mrs. Tufnell's agent, Frank
Spencer. For the last four or five days prior to her
confinement my wife had not been able to work ; she
was poorly on Friday last. After I had finished my
job about noon my wife told me she thought she
was going to get her bed, and she desired me two or
three times to go to Frank Spencer to ask leave for my
wife to remain in the barn. I told Spencer my wife
was too unwell to be moved. I went twice to Spencer
for the same purpose. Spencer refused to let my wife
remain in the barn, saying they were not his stables.
The stables are on Mrs. Tufnell's premises in Hork-
stow, and Spencer superintends them. I, my wife,
and six children, had been lodging in that barn ten or
eleven days. Four of my ;children were then un-
well. On the Friday in question Spencer came to
the barn; and asked my wife whether she was poorly,
and whether she was brought to bed there. My wife
replied she had not got her bed, but she was poorly.
I don't know by the word " poorly" whether my wife
meant that she was unwell merely, or that she was in
the pains of labour. Spencer then desired me to go
out and get the land measured that I had been shear-
ing. Spencer went with me and measured the land
for me, which occupied about half an hour. The
money amounted to 11. 195., which I had to take.
Spencer then said to me, " hen you have brought
your wife and children out of the barn, and go on the
road, I will give you your money," and he said he
would not give me a farthing of it until I had taken
my family out of the barn. I then asked Spencer
where I could get a cart, and he said there was
no cart to be had in that town, that I had
better take my family on to Ferriby, and that I
might get a cast in a carrier's cart to Winter-
ton. I had previously asked for a cart to go to
Winterton. I then took my family out of the
barn, and Frank Spencer came from a stack, and paid
me my money. The first day we went to work under
Frank Spencer, Mrs. Spencer said to my wife, " You
will soon get your bed, I think ?" My wife replied,
" No ; I don't expect my bed until Christmas." Hav-
ing left the barn at Horkstow I and my family went
towards Ferriby. My wife had not proceeded more
than twenty yards when she was obliged to sit down,
and she told me she should get her bed, she thought,
before she got anywhere. My wife got up again
and proceeded towards Ferriby, and she ultimately
got her bed as before described. I don't know
whether Spencer could see my wife when she first
sat down on the road after having left the barn. I
can't say that Spencer knew my wife was about to get

her bed.
Elizabeth Skinner, the wife of Richard Skinner, of
Ferriby, aforesaid, shopkeeper—About six o'clock on
Friday evening last, having understood that a woman
was in labour in the High-street, Ferriby, I went to
the spot and found a woman with a newly-born child
upon her knee. There were several people there, and
some of them told me the child was dead. I put my
finger into its mouth ; the mouth was warm, but
there was no symptom of life, and I judged the child
had not been long dead. I can't say whether the
child was full grown or not. My opinion is, the
child was born alive, but I won't be certain. I have
occasionally delivered women, and I have been a
regular nurse fourteen years. I had no conversation

"My Lord,—The melancholy duty devolves on
me to announce the deaths yesterday morning of two
English gentlemen under very painful circumstances.
" I take the liberty of addressing you, instead of
writing to the addresses of the gentlemen themselves,
in order that the mournful intelligence may be com-
municated in as delicate a manner as the case will
admit of, and to prevent any sudden shock being
given to the relatives.
" The names of the deceased gentlemen are Wil-
liam Stericker, of 49, Fenchurch-street, and William
Henry Whitburn, brewer, of Esher, Surrey.
" I refer to the enclosed paper, containing the evi-
dence of one of the first persons who found the bodies
and which contains all the information I have as yet
collected. The report of the medical men is also en-
closed, agreeing that death occurred from natural
causes. I have not as yet ordered a dissection, and
will abstain from doing so unless circumstances of a
suspicious nature may emerge, but which Ido not
expect. The necessary attention to the bodies will
be bestowed, and I shall suspend all directions as to
interment until the pleasure of the relatives becomes
known.
" I proceed this evening with the procurator-fiscal
to the spot where the bodies were found, to prosecute
further inquiries.
" I have the honour to ,remain, &c.,
" ANDREW FRAZER, Sheriff-
substitute."
The evidence alluded to is that of W. S. Milner,
ensign in the 69th Regiment of Foot, who had been
residing with his brother at Kinlochbeg, 15 miles from
Fortwilliam, and it gives the following account :
" About eight o'clock this morning (the 2d of
September) one of the servants told me that a drover
said he had seen a dead man by the roadside about
two miles from Kinlochbeg. I immediately walked
to the spot, and found two men lying close to one
another about three yards from the roads on the low
side, quite dead. There was not the slightest sign of
struggling or of violence, and their appearance gave
me the impression that, having sat down to rest, they
became benumbed with the cold, and expired. Both
were dressed as if travellers, each with a small knap-
sack on his back. There was a small whisky pocket
flask, quite empty, lying near them. A waterproof
cape was lying about 400 yards from them, as if the
wind had blown it from them. Last night was very
stormy, very much so—wind and rain in great abund-
ance, probably the most stormy night we have bad
this year."
The statement then gives a particular account of
the property found upon the two deceased persons.
The medical certificate expressed the opinion that
death was caused by exhaustion and cold, from the
deceased having fallen asleep on the mountain on that
boisterous night.
The Lord Mayor, upon receipt of the communica-
tion on Monday, sent his chaplain to the friends of
Mr. Stericker, and one of the marshals to Esher, to
disclose the intelligence.
It appears that the two gentlemen were strangers
to each other, and had journeyed together acciden-
tally. Each had left his home for the purpose of en-
joying a pleasure excursion through the romantic
scenery of Scotland, and they had been seen on the
preceding night laughing with a milk girl, at no great
distance from the spot at which their corpses were
found. Mr. Stericker had written home on the 31st
of August, to inform his friends that he felt perfect
happiness in the enjoyment of the most romantic
country in the world.

CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday Mr. Baker held
an inquest at the Blacksmiths' Arms, Backhouse-15ne,
St. George-in-the-East, on view of the body of Eliza-
beth Abbey, aged seven months. The mother of the
deceased was compelled to go into service, when she
put her,child out to nurse, it being only four months
old ; from that time it gradually declined in health,
and on last Sunday morning Mr. Garrett, surgeon, was
sent for, who found it insensible. He prescribed a:-
aromatic medicine, but that had no effect, and it diet
in a few hours, being reduced almost to a skeleton,
Mr. Garrett said that death was caused from the want

APPLICATION OF ETHER, TO BEES.—Some very

The apparatus used was very
placed in a glass vessel, to which apflexible tube was af-
fixed, which was introduced beneath the hive (a glass
one) through a small hole in the platform on which the
hive was placed. The glass vessel was then placed in a
larger vessel of warm water, by which the vapour was
subtilized. In seven minutes the vapour completely stu-
pified the bees, who fell inanimate to the bottom of the
hive. The hive was then removed. The atmospheric
air revived the bees in about ten minutes, and in a
short time after they were fully recovered. The same
effects were then produced by the fumes of burnt nitre
in another glass hive. The stupefaction of the bees was
more immediate, but their recovery on exposure to the
atmospheric air was obtained. Another experiment was
tried on a third hive, by igniting the species of dried
fungus called a " powder•puff," and the result was si-
milar. The use of ether, however, appeared more tract-
able, the strength being more capable of regulation than
that of either the nitre or the " powder puff." It was,
moreover, more cleanly, and less likely to occasion acci-
dents. The honey is not likely to be affected by the
vapour of ether. It is so extremely volatile that its
powers are dispersed by the atmospheric air almost im-
mediately. The great advantage is the simplicity as
well as the efficacy of the application, all

COAL-PIT EXPLOSION.—An inquest ti', as held on
Tuesday, before T. Badger, Esq., at tho 'Masons' Arms,
Worsbro' Dale, on the bodies of Jol`.n Cawthorne and
Daniel Beeves, miners, who died i.,i consequence of an
explosion of fire damp at the Darley Maine Pits on
Friday morning week. The two unfortunate men, in
company with another, had descended on the morning
in question, and when at the bottom their safety
lamps indicated the presence of foul air in the pit.
Cawthorne endeavoured to extinguish his lamp. The
current of air thus propelled drove the flame outside
the gauze frame, and an explosion was the conse-
quence. The deceased were both severely burnt, the
others escaping comparatively scathless. Cawthorne
died on Sunday, and Beeves on Monday. Verdict,

The new stamps, representing postage rates of
10d. and ls. each, are being prepared at Somerset-
house. The Is. stamps are ready for issue, and the
proof of the 10d. one has bee❑ approved of by the
authorities.
Both stamps are of the compressed octagonal form,
the same width as the embossed " heads' upon the
envelopes now in use, but rather deeper than such
stamps. The profile of her Majesty, which is most
accurately drawn, and exquisitely engravers, is deeply
sunk in the die, and consequently it stands out in bold
relief. Round the profile are the words " Postage,
One Shilling," or " Postage, Tenpence," as the case
may be. The colour of the is. stamp is green, and it
is intended for those of 10d. to use a brown ink or
composition. The stamps are struck on sheets of
twenty each, for the convenience of purchasers, and
well backed with adhesive matter.
These stamps will be valuable for parcels and
foreign letters. They are not to be confined to foreign
letters, but may be indiscriminately used for inland,
ship, or foreign postages, where the demand of the
office, either for transit or weight, reaches the amount
represented. To the merchant, or others, sending
foreign letters the convenience will be very great,
while the time saved to the office in the operation of
obliteration will be considerable.
The following instruction has been issued to the
deputy-postmasters :—" The Lords of her Majesty's
Treasury having authorised the issue of postage stamps
of the value of one shilling, a specimen is forwarded
separately to those deputies, &c., who obliterate
postage stamps, for the purpose of being compared, in
case of doubt, with the stamped letters of this de-
scription that may pass through the Post-office. With
respect to the issue of these new postage stamps to
postmasters, for:sale to the public, the distribution by
the Post-office will be confined, for the present, to the

subject of cancelling stamps, &c., contained in the

1846, must be carefully acted upon with regard to
the new stamps. Amended forms of accounts for
postage stamps will be transmitted to all postmasters,
and upon their receiving a supply they will return to
this department the present forms for stamps in their
possession.

ALARM OF FIRE AT THE STRAND THEATRE.--
Last night, shortly before ten o'clock, an alarming scene
occurred during the performance at the New Strand
Theatre. It appeared that the flame of one of the gas

burners on the stage had heated an iron reflector so as

This created the greatest l a arm among the visitors,
which was increased by the sudden fall of the curtain.
This was done that the stage-manager might inform the
audience that no danger was apprehended. It how-
ever had a contrary effect, and a general rush took place.
The man who first raised the alarm, on getting into the
street, again shouted " Fire !" This caused the rumour
to be circulated, and the engines, with a strong muster
of firemen, started to the spot. Fortunately their ser-
vices were not required.
