REMARKABLE CIRCUMSTANCE. —On Saturday
evening fait :e.eral of the inhabitants of Penzance wore
not a little startled on witnessing an otter marching
down Chapel-street, with the utmost sang froid. He
approached a female, who was unconscious chat she was
in such compiny, and by getting in contact with her
et, nearly threw her to the ground. A man who
lodged at the Turk's Head Inn brought out a large and
powerful bull-dog, whin a severe encounter ensued be-
tween the dog and otter, the result of which was for
some time doubtful, but ultimately terminated in the
death of the latter, which was subsequently purchased
by John Richards, Esq., of Poltair, wno, we understand,
intends presenting it, after it shall have been stuffed, to
the Museum.— West Briton.

INTRODUCTION OF THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH INTO
LIVERPOOL.—A gentleman was in Liverpool, on Satur-
day last, making arrangements on the part of the Electric
Telegraph Company for introducing that wonderful
mode of communication between this town and the me-
tropolis. He had previously made similar arrangements
in Manchester; and from the information which he gave
us, we trust that both these capitals of Lancashire will
be connected with Lond, in, and with each other, by means
of the electric wire, within three months of the present
time. As the same company has already communica-
tions with most other parts of the kingdom, Liverpool
will be at once connected with a great variety of places,
including most of the sea ports on the south and western
coast. The manner in which the information received
in Liverpool, from London, Manchester, and other sta-
tions, is to be made available, is as follows:—A large
room is to be taken near the Exchange News Room (if
possible in the same building), into which tee wires and
the while apparatus are to be introduced. Here all
information of public interest will be received, and be
immediately deciphered, and posted up. for the informa-
tion of the subscribers to this telegraphic news room.
'Fhe yearly subscription will be from two to three
guineas, and for this sum the subscribers will be entitled
to see all intelligence relative to the arrival of the East
and West India mails, markets, to political events of
importance, as decisions in Parliament, to the arrival of
Liverpool vessels at other ports, and whatever else mey
be thought deserving of transmission by telegraph. The
company will also convey private communication, at so
much per dozen words.—Liverpool Times of yesterday.
