HALF-PAST ONE.
We have received the Journal of Antwerp, of yesterday's
date, but it does not contain any intelligence worth notice.
From Amsterdam, of the 4th February, it is stated that the
'Change on that day was entirely different to the preceding one.
In Dutch Stoeks there were several sellers, which caused a de-
cline; with the exception of the integrales, business was animated.
The actions of the Society of Commerce, in consequence of
realizing, fell from 1741, and 175 fell to 1731. In the Foreign
Funds little was done.

On Monday or Tuesday an overland express is expected from
India, which is anxiously looked for, as no doubt it will bring
later intelligence from China.,

THREE O'CLOCK.
A notice has just been posted at the Mansion-house, by order
of the Lord Mayor, in which it is stated that, on Monday, the
10th February, the Solemnization of the Marriage of her Ma-
jesty, Queen Victoria, takes place; the Lord Mayor considers it
will be desirable on the part of his fellow-citizens, as a mark of
dutiful respect to her Majesty, that all business which can pos-
sibly be avoided should be suspended on that joyful occasion.
He also gives notice, that the Guildhall of the City of Loudon
will be closed.

The new play by Leigh Hunt, called " A Le-
gend of Florence," will be produced this evening at Covent-
garden. We have heard very favourable reports respecting it,
and cordially hope that its success will be commensurate with
the merits of it amiable and talented author.
Sir George Crewe, Bart., has directed his agent,
Mr. Muirclarke, to distribute the sum of 1001. among the
clergy on his Staffordshire estates, to be expended by them in
nothing.
FlRE—Great confusion and alarm were caused
here on Sunday evening by a cry of " Fire" in various parts of
the town. It was soon ascertained that the cause of alarm was
in the stable yard of Colonel Wyndham, where the chimney of
the "boiling house" had caught fire. The fire-engine of Pet-
worth House, and also that of the town, were instantly on the
spot ; and we are happy to say that the flames were suppressed
without extending further.
A report prevailed a few days back, in Paris,
that M. Jules Janier, the celebrated wrilitr of the feuilleiens in
the Journal des Debats, had been killed in a duel. In Mon-
day's feuilleton M. Jules Janier begs to assure his readers that
he is not dead, and trusts that they will credit his assertion.
THAMES TUNNEL.—Yesterday the Dundee
steam-ship, on her way down the river, about ten o'clock in
the morning, the tide having nearly run out, grounded upon
the Thames Tunnel, and created the greatest alarm to the spec-
tators on both sides of the river, both for the safety of the ves-
sel and the arch of the tunnel. The alarm on board the Dundee
amongst the few paasengers was also very great, from the
wind, shortly after the vessel had struck, heeling her over on
her starboard quarter; shortly before eleven o'clock, however,
the tide began to low, and the magnificent vessel was observed
getting her steam up, and shortly after slowly moving onwards,
when she preceeded on her voyage, without, it is believed, sus-
taining any serious injury. The crown of the arch upon
which this ponderous vessel rested is not supposed to be in-
jured, although the workmen in the Tunnel state that they
could hear her grating along the top of it. The Dundee is a
steamer of the largest class, and draws thirteen feet water ;
and the propriety of her proceeding down the river at low
water may be questioned, especially as it was only last week
she went on shore at Limehoase, and was not got off for nearly
an hour.
ALBERT BOOTS.—Messrs. Llewelly and Nash,
of Bristol, have recently manufactured a magnificent pair of
boots for Prince Albert. The legs are of morocco, turned over
with purple velvet, and elegantly embroidered with gold : in
the centre are the royal arms, surrounded by the letters V. A.
underneath are the words nous SeTVOII3, "we serve," on either
side the arras are wreaths of the rose, shamrock, and thistle,
which are ecntinued round the leg. The inside lining and
straps are of gold, and the lower part of the boots of patent
leather, beautifully stitched with white silk; the sole is most
exquisitely finished, and the heels are of silver, secured
with gold plugs, in the centre of which is a crown and the letters P. A. in gold. The box in which they are to be pre-
sented is of the handsomest mahogany, lined with crimson cloth,
and bears upon the cover the royal arms.
