THE PENINSULAR MAILS.
SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY MORNING.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam-
ship Iberia, Captain Burney, with mails in charge of
Mr. Lantos, Admiralty agent, has arrived. Her
dates are—Gibraltar, October 26 ; Cadiz, 27 ; Lisbon,
29; Oporto, 30; Vigo, 30. The cargo consists of
forty-eight packages of specie, and a general cargo
of fruit, wine, &c. She brings sixty-six passengers,
amongst whom is Dr. Affonsica, Member of the
Portuguese Cortes for the Island of Madeira, charged
With dispatches.
Her Majesty's ship Polyphemus, the French brig
of vvar l'Aigle, and a French steamer (name unknown),
Were at Gibraltar. The usual Portuguese squadron
Was at Lisbon.
The Iberia spoke with the Peninsular and Oriental
Co
umpany's steamer Montrose, in Vigo Bay, on the
20th lt.

At Gibraltar an order was issued from the Govern-
!Dent on the 26th ultimo, that all ships arriving from
England after that date were to perform 15 days'
quarantine.
The Ripon was expected, and the passengers would
"ave to comply with such order.
All quiet in Portugal.
Count de Thomar left Lisbon for Madrid on a spe-
cial mission, and is expected to return by the 2d of
January for the opening of the Cortes. It is also
said that a revision will most probably take place in
the English treaty with Portugal.

- ROBBERY AT BRIGHTON BARRACKS.--An extensive
robberalry was committed on Thursday evening at the
Cavy Barracks. Cornet Chichester, after returning
,frorn the races, dressed for me-s, and left his room about
u, lif-past six o'clock. The key was placed beneath a
large chest in the passage, into which the various doors
of the officers' rooms open
to be ;Ind the spot was supposed
known only t.) Mr. Chichester and his servant.
About nine o'clock Mr. Chichester catered his room for
4 Moment, and he was then absent till one o'clock in the
morning. On returning he discover( d that his drawers
had been forced, and that his clothes, military and pri-
'ate, a g
Mother old hunting watch, a gold pencil-case, and a
araall sum in silver, had been carr'ed off. There was
gold watch on the mantel:3l)(T; belonging to a
brother officer, which was not taken; but the valuo of
~hat was stolen was not less than MI. The key must
have been taken from its hiding-place and replaced by
the thieves, who, it is conjectured, perpetrated the rob-
btbery between seven anal Line o'clock. No clue has been
abied likely to lead to the apprehension of the thieves.

seeded in procession to the courts of law at Wes
minster.

FLOODS.—From Putney to Richmond the mea-
dows, gardens, end fiehls are covered, having all the
appearance of a 'eke. The toning paths up to and be-
yond Kingston, for miles, are flooded, so that trade on
the water is put a stop to; neither boats nor barges can
proceed, as horses cannot be used. At Thames Ditton,
Dalton, and near to other stations on the South- Western
Railway, thousands of acres of grass, newly sown wheat,
and ploughed lands, are inundated to the depth of several
feet. Beyond Winchester, to Bishopstoke, Romsey, and
Dean, scarcely a spot of dry land can be observed along
the valleys through which pass the rivers Test and
Itchen. For many miles below Salisbury, where the
rivers Avon, Abele, Nalder, Wiley, and the Bourne pass,
the surrounding country is Weeded. Between Hunger-
ford, Newbury, and Reading, through which the rivers
Kennet and Loddon take their meandering course, mad
beyond Reading to Twyford and Maidenhead, where the
Thames is again seen, there is nothing but a vast ex,
pause of water visible; yet we are happy to hear, up to
the present time, less damage had been done than might
have been expected.
MARRIAGE IN HIGH LlFE.—Married, yesterday,
at St. George's, Hanover-square, by the Rev. Charles
13ingham, Captain Kerneys Tynte, of the Grenadier
Guards, eldest son of C. J. Kemeys Tynte, Esq., M.P.,
and grandson of Colonel Tynte, of Halswell House,
Somerset, to Mary Sophia, eldest daughter and coheir of
the late Rev. G. Clutterhuck Fromo of Punknoll, Dorset.
After the ceremony a handsome dejeuner was given by
the bride's aunt, at her residence in Great Stenhope-
treet, and the happy pair left town for Burrhill Park,
Surrey, a seat of Colonel Tynte.
A SUBJECT FOR. ANTIQUARIAN SPECULATION.—
On Thursday last the workmen of Mr. Brownlio, the
contractor for the erection of the new quay on the south
side of the river, made a discovery while engaged in
excavating the ground fronting the Clyde there, which
we doubt not will open up a field of interesting inquiry
to antiquaries, geologists, and others. About 300 feet
from the margin of the present channel of the river they
came upon: a canoe imbedded in fine sand, at least 20
feet from the surface. The boat, when measured, was
found to be 19 feet in length by 2} feet deep, and 2i
feet wide. It has a sharp prow and square stern, and
has been cut out of the solid oak. From the length and
other appearances it would seem to be adapted for six
oars. The wood is in pretty good preservation consider.
ing the position in which it was found, but part of it was
unfortunately broken by the workmen in digging it out.
We believe it is the intention of Mr. Brownlie to have
the piece that has been broken off preserved, along with
the rest of the ancient-looking structure. In the mean-
time it may be seen at the works, on the south side, by
the curious, who have time, and are willing to trudge
through the mud and loose sand that lies in their way to
the spot.—Glasgow Chronicle.
UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH.—OPENING OF THE
WINTER SESSION.— OR Tuesday the winter session ~f
our university was opened in the chemistry class room
of the college, by the Very Rev. Principal Lee, D.D.
About two o'clock the Principal entered tha universi,y,
accompanied by the various professors, and, after a fer-
vent prayer, delivered a stirring and appropriate address;
the benediction was then pronounced, and the meeting
separated.—North British Mail.

Asuroup.—A brig built for the Earl of Winchilsea,
by Mr. Duke, of Dover, was launched at Eastwell-park,
last Thursday, The vessel is a perfect model, on the
veal° of an 18-gun brig of 382 tons; her length is 60
wet; breadth, 15 feet 6 inches; depth, 7 feet 6 inches.
The spacious lake in which this eleFant specimen of
naval architecture lies moored and rigged, is a mile in
length, and about a quarter of a mile in breadth, and
from the diversified scenery surrounding presents a view
of enchanting magnificence. The weather on the occa-
sion was very auspicious, the launch proved most satis-
factory, and Mr. Duke was highly complimented on the
successful production of so great an ornament to East-
well park. Among those present to witness the launch-
ing were—Lord Maidstone, Lord Sydenham, E. R. Rice,
M.P., and others.—Kentish Observer.

RUM.—The Government contract for 50,000 gallons
of ruin for the navy was taken yesterday by Messrs.
Lemon, Hart, and Son, of 59. Fenehurch-street.

THE WRONG Sow BY THE EAR.—An amusing
incident occurred some time since at the City Clerks'..
office. A stout Irishman came in at the same time with
an enormous dcg, and said to Mr. M'Cleary, who was at
his desk, " May it plaz,,, your honour, I want a license."
Mr. M'Cleary quietly wrote out the license and handed
it to the man. " And how much am Ito pay? " Two
dollars." " Two dollars ! A friend of mine got one
here only a day or two ago for fifty cents." "It must
be a mistake," replied Mr. M'Cleary ; "I have been here
a great many years and never issue I a dog license under
two dollars." " Dog ! " cried the Irishman ; "hang the
dog ! I never saw the baste before. I want to get mar-
ried ! "—Boston Atlas.

TREASURE TROVE. During the past week a
labourer found in Perry-wood, Shclwich, about five
pounds in weight of silver coins of Henry -V 111., and
Edward VI. They had been concealed in a crock just
below the surface, and it is supposed that the late heavy
rains had washed the earth from them, leaving them ex-
posol—Canterbury Journal.
