BRISTOL ►SUGAR MARKET, AUG. 4.—We have had
a better demand for raw sugars since the settlement of
the question as to the duties on refined sugars, but the
market is still far from active. For crushed there is a
very eo.‘d demand, at full prices. Rum is still dull.--
Bri tol Mercury.
A GOLDEN DREAM.—A Northumberland hind,
named C— B—, stuck his spade into the earth, one day
this month, near to a certain t/60 by the side of a
brook, to test the truth of an alleged dream, that
a hoard of money was there concealed. His faith was
well rewarded; he turned up a pot which was full
of coins. Three of these we have seen; one of
them a penny of Alexander lIL, King of Scot-
land, who began hi; reign on the Bth of
July, 1249, and ended it on the 16th of March, 1286.
The other two were pennies of Edward I. King of Eng-
land, November 20, 1272, to July 7, 1307, struck re-
spectively at Canterbury and Dublin. We are inclined
to believe that the peasant really dreamt of his prize;
but wo cannot accompany Mrs. Crowe to the Night
Side of Nature in search of an explanation. He had
heard his father tell of coins in the neighbourhood of. the
tree; and nothing was mere likely, therefore, than that
he sh,,uld have the dream which sent him to the spot
with his spade. Five centuries have elapsed since the
treasure was buried. One mark of identification selected
by the owner remains to this day—the brook. We are
not informed that the tree bears witness to a like anti-
quity.= Gateshead Observer.
GAME SELLING.—Many persons entertain the idea
that the recent Game Act authorises any one to sell
hares without a game dealer's license. This is a mis-
taken notion, not a word is said in the new enactment
respecting game dealers' licenses.
Lord Blcho has left town for Scotland.
