with a market gardner's waggon. The animal was so dreadfully

who was pitched out and fell heavily on the road, sustained a severe

We regret to have to announce the death of
Lieut.-Colonel the Hon. G. Berkeley Molyneux, at half-
past three P.M., on Friday, August 27. He leaves a
widow and one son, who deeply deplore the loss of one
of the best of husbands and fathers. We know no one
whose death wolld be more universally regretted than
that of this high-minded, distinguished man. Ile will
be buried at Manchester by his RegimAit, with military
honours.

WHIRL WI ND.—At Matlock, Bath, on Wednes-
day week, about two o'clock, a great quantity of hay was ob-
served floating in the air, a portion of which continued for five
minutes falling to the ground. The elevation attained by some
part of it could not have been less than a thousand feet. It was
ascertained to have been taken up by a whirlwind from a close
in the occupation of Mr. F. Hartle, at Bonsai]. A similar
phenomenon occurred the same day in a field of Mr. Eaton's,
at Tansley. Here there was no wind at the surface of the
ear:h, but the hay, on attaining a considerable altitude, was
carried by a brisk upper current in the direction of Cromford,
being nearly opposite to that taken by Mr. Hartle's hay..—
Derby Reporter,
The prai3e of railway travelling was rather ori-
ginally advocated by a companion of ours whose admiration
was chiefly excited by its putting an end to high way robberies.
" Sir," sail he, " it has extinguished one of the most exten-
sive, dangerous, and worst species of crime. A footpad, Sir,
cannot put a pistol to the boiler, and stop the train by threaten-
ing to blow its brains out, so that the passengers may be
plundered at leisure."—Literary Gazette. [But footpads
can place some obstruction on the line, overturn twenty car-
riages, and rob 200 passengers at their leisure."
ACCIDENT IN HYDE-PARK.—On Saturday
afternoon, between four and five o'clock, an alarming accident
occurred In the carriage-drive of Hyde-park, between Cum-
betland sod Victoria gates, to Miss Amelia Claxton, 17 years
of age, daughter of Lieut.-Col. Caxton, residing in Connaught-
terrace, Edgeware-road. It appears that the unfortunate young
lady, in company with her father, was riding a high-spirited
horse round the park, when the animal suddenly shyed from
one side of the road to the other, at the sudden flow of water
from one of the water-carts, which was watering the dt ive,
throwing the unfortunate young lady with tremendous violence
to the ground. Immediate assistance was rendered, and she
was assisted up from off the ground in a state of insensibility,
and placed in a gentleman's carriage that was passing, and con.
veyed in it to her father's residence, having sustained sever
contusions on the head and body.
STATE or Stti,'KPOßT.—The population of
this borough, which ten years ago amounted to tiwvards
of 58,000, is now reduced to 40,40. Theile are in the
borough 10,890 dwellings of this number 2;053 were
unoccupied in June last. There are also ten eattott mills
and a print work totally thioNtipleci, and five mills hut
partially occupied. The number of empty dWellings is
803 more than in June 1840, The tottud an
average„ are worklag Abut tour days a week; and at
the present moment there are at least 1;50d flicibiy ope-
ratives out of employMent hilt pain of
these have only heed thrOwn out of employment this
week, in cfOrASNuence of the stoppage of an extensive
establishment for the purpose of making fresh arrange-
ments respecting partnership. It is, however, expected
they will resume work again in a few weeks.—Manches-
ter Times.

From Naples it is stated that the Government
has refnlved upon undertaking new excavations, on an exten-
sive scale, at Herculaneum and in its environs. With this
view, negotiations are already commenced for the purchase of
various estates in the neighbourhood; and the works will be
commenced sq soon as these shall have become the property, of
the State. The Minister of the Interior, in conjunction with
the Royal Academy of Sciences, is to appoint a Commission
of Archaeologists and Architects to preside over the excava-
tions..--To this piece of Neapolitan intelligence we may add
the announcement, on a kindred subject, that the Chevalier
Zlim, who, for the last seven years, has been exclusively em-
ployed in copying the most remarkable of the paintings found
in Pompeii, is about to publish his collection, at the expense
of the Government. To these engravings the Chevalier ap-
plies a new lithe-chromatic process, invented by himself,
enabling him to make use of oil-colours; and the early proofs
of four of his plates, obtained by this method, are now exhi-
biting to the public, and attracting much admiration.--
