society is indebted for these very interesting and valu-
able animals to the liberality of Lieut.-Colonel Butter-
.: ortb; the governor of Singapore, who availed himself
of the obliging kindness of Captain M'Quhae, to transmit
them in her Majesty's ship DadaltiF. The collection of
living animals which has been formed in Nubia and
f-3ena:)r, for the society, by the command of his Highness
Ibrahim Pacha, and which are now in Cairo, was in-
creased last month by the arrival of two antelopes. The
society received five ostriches by the last Peninsular and
Oriental Steam-packet Company's steamer, and have
athice of the arrival at Liverpool of a pair of tigers,
w!:ich were shipped some time since, at Bombay, as a
present from J. W. Hadow, Esq.
BOSTON.—OPENING OF THE GREAT NORTHERN
RAILWAY.—The committee of gentlemen appointed to
make the arrangements for celebrating the opening of
the above line, are exercising a most laudable activity.
and we doubt not the entertainments in progress for that
great occasion will prove in every respect worthy the
spirited and intelligent inhabitants of Boston. We last
week observed that no particular demonstration would be
made on the actual day of opening the line (Tuesday
next), but that the event would be celebrated in a be•
coming style on the Thursday week following. Invita-

CHARGE OF ROBBERY AGAINST A LETTER-CARRIER.
--Samuel Harrap, a proprietor of flys, and for several
years a letter-carrier of the Exeter post-office, was ap-
prehended on Tuesday by Peake, the officer, at his re-
sidence. Peake noticed that Harrap seized a reticulo
bag, which Mr. Peak() immediately took from him, and
in it and other parts there were found a variety of valu-
able articles, consisting of a reticulo steel clasp and
mounting, gold guard-chainF, pencil cases, gold rings,
brooches, seals, eye-glass, and cameo-lockets. The pri-
soner was immediately taken before the magistrates.
,where the authorities of the post-office attended, and
after examination was remanded.

THE WANT OF THE BALLOT.—Among the sufferers
by the improper interference of the Marquis of Exeter
in the Parliamentary elections for Stamford, there is one
upon whom misfortune has fallen most severely in con-
sequence of the vote he gave, and to whom the elective
franchise has in reality proved a curse. The man's name
is Littledyke—he is the individual who was discharged
from his work at Burghley after nearly fifty years' ser-
vitude, and the same whom the Noble Lord personally
repulsed when he assured his Lordship that he voted
against his nominee by mistake. This unfortunate per-
son, we are told, is now a recipient of parish relief ; he
