POSTAL TREAT' WITH PRUSSIA

The Gazette of Friday contains a Treasury warrant
for lowering the rates of postage betwixt Great Britain
and Prussia, in terms of the convention lately concluded
with that country, In this document the Commissioners
of her Majesty's Treasury announce, that on every
letter not exceeding half an ounce in weight, addressed
to any place in Prussia (ct vice versa), and conveyed
either by way of Hamburgh, the Netherlands, or BA-
glum, and by packet-boat or private ship, there shall in
future be levied an uniform rate of British postage of
6d. Letters to and from the British colonies to be simi-
larly charged, with the addition of the postage payable
between the colony from which such letters may be sent
and the British port to or from which the packet or ship
shall sail. In the above cases the Postmaster-General
may, at discretion, either allow the whole of the postage
to be charged to th, receiver, or cause it to be required
when the fetters are put into the Post-office; but in no
case is the sender to have the option of paying the Bri-
tish or colonial rates, and leaving the foreign postage to
be paid in Prussia. Letters exceeding halt an ounce in
weight are to be charged according to the scale of
weight and number of rates laid down in the Act for
the regulation of postages. British and colonial news-
papers, and such publications as are allowed to pass by
post as newspapers in the United Kingdom, are to be
charged when sent to Prussia, or to other foreign coun-
tries through Prussia, one halfpenny each. The same
rule is to apply to Prussian newspapers. Printed prices
current, commercial lists, and courses of exchange,
allowed to circulate by the post, unstamped, in either
Great Britain or Prussia, are to be charged ld. each.
Newspapers, &c., mast also be sent via Hamburgh, the
Netherlands, or Belgium. Pamphlets and periodical
publications (not newspapers) sent to and from the two
countries are to be charged as follows:—Not exceeding
two ounces, ld. each; above two and not exceeding
three ounces 6d. each; above three and not exceeding
four ounces, Bd. each; and for every additional ounce
above four, an additional rate of 2d. No pamphlet or
publication above 16 ounces to be forwarded ; and all
newspapers, pamphlets, &c., sent through a foreign
country, must pay the foreign postage payable thereon,
in addition to the British postage. Letters or news-
papers passing between Great Britain or Prussia, vier
France, are to be charged at the old rates of postage.
The above regulations come into operation on the Ist of
January next.

THE LOCOMOTIVE ESTABLISHMENT AT ASHFORD..-•-•
There can be no doubt that the approaching completion
of the Paris line to the coast will materially increase the
traffic of the South-Eastern Railway. It is not alone for
this increase of traffic that the company are, by the erec
tion of an immense locomotive establishment at Ashford,
preparing. The North Kent line to Gravesend will re-
quire a very large carrying stock. The immensity of the
river passenger traffic to and fro between London and
this town is too notorious to need particular remark.
Experience teaches us that a great portion of this will
inevitably pass over the South-Eastern Railway. The
directors are looking forward to the construction of the
stock necessary to work such a traffic. The ground on
which the ,orks at Ashford are being erected was origi-
nally a hollow, the surface rising in the direction of the
railway (east and west), and to the south. This hollow
has been filled up level with the rail. The works con-
sist of a large engine shed, a repairing shop, smiths'
and boiler shops and tender shed. The engine shed,
which is for the accommodation of 16 locomotives, with
their tenders, is 208 feet 9, by 63 feet, parallel with the
railway. Four lines of rail extend longitudinally through
the whole length of the building. The repairing shop
has room for 15 engines and tenders. The length of the
building is 395 feet by 45. Attached to the front of this
building is to be a stationary engine of 25-horse power,
for driving the works. A tranverse crane will move on
iron rails, longitudinally along this shop. It will be
capable of lifting 20 tons at its centre. To the south,
and parallel with the repairing shop, is the smithy. This
will contain 20 fires. It is 176 feet long by 45 wide, and
28 high. These and other buildings comprise about
one-half of the works that the South-Eastern Company
intend to carry out simultaneously with the construction
of their new lines.—Kest Herald.
The remains of the late Right Hon. Thos. Gren-
ville will be deposited in the family mausoleum at Burn-
ham near Dropmore.
VISIT TO THE HOT SPRINGS NEAR MONTEREY.—
MONTEREY, MEXICO, OCT. 28, 1846.—Last evening I
paid a visit to quite a notorious and fashionable place of
resort, called by the Mexicans Caliente Augua, or Hot
Springs. These springs are situated about six miles
from the city, and have of late become a place of much
attraction to the American officers and soldiers, as well
as Mexican citizens. The larger of these springs is
about ten feet square, the bottom covered with a beauti-
ful limestone, about four feet deep, and surrounded by a
substantial cemented wallof limestone. The water is about
milk warm, clear as crystal, oozing from the bottom. It
is one of the most splendid places in the world for bath-ing on a small scale. The other is about one half mile
from the first, and nearer the base of the mountain.
This spring is much smaller, and remains as nature left
it. The water is actually unbearable to the touch. I
dropped an egg into it, and in four minutes it was beau-
tifully cooked. 'This is what I call natural cooking.
What is very strange about this spring is, that there is
no steam rising from it, not even in the morning or
evening. The water, after standing over night, is de-
cidedly the best I ever drank—it is truly delicious. If
we have not the pleasures of Saratoga, White Sulphur'
Newport, &e., we do have the enjoyment Of Caliente
Augua.---LVew York Herald.

AMERICAN FLOUR FOR IRE QUEEN 0J ENGLAND

—Notwithstanding that the flour and other bread-stuff;
sent to England are of the purest quality, nevertheless
we learn from the Batavia Times, that Mr. Henry
Smith, on enterprising miller of that county, sent six
barrels of the choicest superfine Genesee flour, manufac-
tured at his mill -in Wheatland, Monroe Co., to Queen
Victoria. and for which, in due time, he received from her
Majesty the comfortable little sum of $3,000. The flour
was put up in highly finished barrels, neatly varnished,
enclosed in sacks, and forwarded direct to the Queen at
London. The fortunate experiment upon the appetite
( f royalty seems to have suited her Majesty's palate so
nicely, that in addition to the ample remuneration for his
first adventure, he has recently received an order direct
from London, for three thousand barrels more " of the
same sort," which he has promptly forwarded. We ap-
prehend that the article sent to her Majesty was more
carefully selected and fashionably put up than the thou-
sands of barrels sent down to the sea-coast, and the
Queen prefers it for short cakes or rout cakes; but gene-
rally speaking, our wheat and corn flour, our rye and
buckwheat meal, are beyond doubt the cleanest and
purest product of any country, and the fine brands may
be purchased with great confidence by any and all
classes of consumers abroad.—New York American Sun,
Nov. 30.
The Courrier of Lyons of Monday states that there
was a heavy fall of snow in the preceding night, which
froze and became so slippery that several persons fell and
had broken limbs.

ply of apples by both vessels is also particularly remark-
able. They comprise two descriptions—one called the
American new town pippin, and the other more recently
introduced, of a smaller kind, and having a beautiful ro-
seate colour, called lady's fingers, both being equally
esteemed for their excellent quality and flavour, and are

THE LARGEST MERCHANT VESSEL IN THE WORLD.
—The people of Liverpool have now an opportunity of
seeing the fine new packet-ship New World, which is
supposed to be the largest merchant-vessel in the world.
This magnificent ship arrived in the river on Thursday,
on her first trip across the Atlantic. She is under the
command of Captain W. Skiddy, and is intended to take
her station as one of the packet-ships between this port
and New York. Sbe is 188 feet long .between perpen•
cliculais, 196 feet from the stem to the taffrail, 42 feet
extreme breadth of beam, 28 feet deep, and is 1,818
15 95th tons, carpenter's measurement, or 1,511 31-95ths
Government measurement. It is estimated that she will
show 5,000 bales of cotton, or 3,000 tons of measurement
goods. She has three decks, the same as a frigate, the
upper one being as substantial, in proportion, as either
of the others. A full figure of Columbus ornaments
the bow, and an arch of carved work, relieved with gild-
ing, her stern. The after-cabin is 27 feet by 14 feet,
and contains six state rooms, each 9 feet by 10 feet
square.--Liverpool Albion.
