IMPORTATION or TURTLE.—A vessel, arrived at the
port of Liverpool from Nassau, New Providence, has
brought an extensive cargo, consisting of furniture and
dye woods, cocoa-nuts, arrow-root, &c., and the large
quantity of 184 barrels of forbidden fruit, which is said
to be now made available for preserving, in a similar
manner to orange marmalade, and which will account
for the extensive importations of the article at the present
time, and 36 turtle, the produce of that quarter, of pine-
apple celebrity. The reason of our noticing this arrival
in this especial manner is that there is in connection
with it a circumstance of perhaps unprecedented occur-
rence, viz., the loss or abandonment of 50 turtles, which
large number had been thrown overboard, in consequence,
it is presumed, of the bad weather experienced on the
passage from the West Indies to this country. The loss
consequent upon such a course must have been consider-
able, independently of the peculiarly interesting nature
of the article, and particularly at the present time, when,
if they had been predestined to take a part on a late
festive occasion, the loss and inconvenience caused by
their absence, must have inevitably been, not to speak it
profanely, calamitous.
ELECTRIC TELEGRAPHS.—Yesterday, a deputation
waited on the Court of Sewers, at Guildhall, to make an
pplication for permission to lay down the electric tele-
graph in a part of the city of London. It was stated in
the court that for the protection of the City it had been
enacted that the consent of the commissioners of sewers
was necessary to lay down any pipe or tubes under any
street in the City. The deputation stated that the object
of the company was to unite the various lines of rails by
means of an electric telegraph, and that it had been in-
tended to make the central terminus at the West-end,
but it was now resolved to make it at Lloyd's, and the
company requested pei mission to take up the pavement
for that purpose. At present the plans of the company
were not matured sufficiently to enable the deputation to
enter into details. The commissioners, after delibera-
tion, granted the required permission, and Lloyd's,
therefore, will be the great central terminus of all tele-
graphic communication.
A MAN SHOT BY HIS COMPANION.— A fatal acci-
dent occurred! at Redditch on Monday morning last.
Two young men, named Thomas and Bartleet, accom-
panied by several others, were out shooting rabbits,
Bartleet using the gun. While at a rick, a rabbit started
out, and Thomas, who was on another side of the rick,
called out, " here he is," and sprang forward to strike it.
At the same moment the rabbit appeared in sight of
Bartleet, who instantly pulled the trigger, and lodged
the contents in the right side of Thomas's head, which
caused his immediate death. An inquest has been held
on the body, and a verdict of " Accidental death " re-
t urned.—Birmingliani Gazette.
„.7WRECKING.—More than twenty persons have been
summarily committed to Bodmin gaol with hard labour,
for from three to five months, for plundering from the
brig Samaritan and her cargo washed in by the sea,
wrecked off St. Eval, near Padstow, during the late gales.
