A NEW AFRICAN DRUG.—The following is one of
the 234 resolutions which Lord George Bentinck pro-
posed for the adoption of the committee on sugar and
coffee planting:—" That the ncgresses, from the circum-
stances of the great preference for men, and the almost
exclusive demand during a long period of years for men
by the regular slave-dealers, very much outnumber the
negroes, and consequently glutting, are a cheap drug
in the African markets !"

THE BINGLEY RIOTERS. —On Monday last James
Bland, hanker, and a special constable, who was one of
the leaders of the mob who rescued the prisoners from,
and assaulted, the constables, was apprehended and
taken betore Mr. Ferrand. He was liberated on bail
b. ing entered into in a surety of 2001. for himself, and
in two bondsmen of 2001. each. Another leader of the
name of Whitfield, who represented the Bingley and
Keighley Chartists in the " National Assembly, and
who solemnly pledged himself to his deluded and plun-
dered followers that he would never desert them, has
absconded from the neighbourhood, and is reported to
have fled to America. The town is now perfectly quiet,
and the working men of Keiehley are conducting them-
selves in the most praiseworthy manner.
CANARIES.—The gentleman who, last year, reared
canaries in a state of freedom, has this year succeeded
in rearing two broods of these birds in nests built in his
garden—one of them in a cyprus tree, having three
young ones, the hen having been reared in the open air
in July 1846, since which time she has been generally
free to fly about at pleasure. Another nest was built in
a magnolia by a hen, tree from the time of her birth (in
May 1846), which contained two young birds, hatched
on the 15th of April last. The old birds and the young
ones also (with the exception of one that disappeared)
continue their flight about the grounds, coming in to
feed. Each hen has now a second brood, one consisting
of four and the other of three young birds, which are
expected to take flight in a few days.
FILTH AND FEVER.--A medical practitioner makes,
recently, a report to the registrar of his district, that
" the fatal cases of fever which have fallen under his
observation have all occurred in Louses exceedingly de-
ficient in drainage and ventilation." This statement re-
ceives strong confirmation from the fact, that a fatal and
prevalent fever has of late existed in Westminster, in
connexion with an unusually fetid state of the atmo-
sphere, created by alluvia from drains. At the present
moment many families (and especially children) are
affected with low fever, attributable to this cause.
