ACCESSION OF HER MAJESTY.—Saturday was thi
anniversary of the accession of her Majesty, and the morning
was ushered in by the ringing of merry peals from the
steeples of the various metropolitan churches. The royal
standard was hoisted at Somerset House, St. Margaret's
Church, St. Martin-in-the-fields, St. Mary Abbott's Ken-
sington, the Tower, Deptford and Woolwich Dockyards,
the Royal Arsenal, and Tilbury Fort, the various vessels
lying in the river being decorated with flags of all nations,
presenting a very gay and animated appearance, and at the
usual hour the Park and Tower guns firet.l a royal salute.
At the various law and equity offices, and also the Judge's
Chambers, the day was observed as a general hOliday. The
judges at Westminster sitting in Banco wore their crimson
state robes.
The thirty-first tri-colour banner, by the presentation
of which at Windsor Castle, on the anniversary of the battle
of Waterloo, the Duke of Wellington enjoys the splendid
estate of Strathfieldsaye, was deposited in the guard chamber
at Windsor Castle, on Thursday last, and placed' over the
bust of this distinguished military. commander. The
old banners are carefully preserved in the royal stores at
the Castle.
=DEATHS Br GLANDERS.—About three weeks ago
Messrs. Wing, grocers and druggists, of Melton Mowbray,
had a horse die, which they sold to a knacker named
Whitaker, of Melton Mowbray, for lice. Whitaker skinned
the horse, and a Jew days afterwards was taken ill, and kept
gradually getting worse until Tuesday last, when he died.
It appears the,horse died of the glanders, and NYhen Whitaker
was skinning it he accidentally rubbed his head with his
hand, having at the same time a small pimple ori his head,
which caused inoculation and its fearful consequei2ces. A
man named Pick, an old servant of Messrs. Wing, has also
died from the same frightful disease, he having had the care
and management of the horse until it died ; but haw the
disease was conveyed to him is not known. Another man,
named Hawley, who assisted Whitaker to skin the horse, has
been taken ill ; and it is much feared that his is the same
disease. It is also reported that sortie pigs, which had lain
upon some of the straw that had been used by the horse, had
manifested signs of the disease. The whole of the furniture
in the room where poor Whitaker died, &Insisting of two
beds, bedstead, &c., were burnt the same evening that he
died, to prevent, if possible, the contagion by order of the
surgeons who attended him.—Leicester Journal. iVe are in-
debted to a correspondent for the following additional pee-
ticulars:— The first symptoms of Whitaker having caught
the disease exhibited themselves when he was in bed the
following night. He complained that his head was "as
heavy as if a hundred weight was upon it, and that he could
not lift it." His wife paid every attention, and medical aid
was called in, but without avail. The second symptom.
were discharges of foetid matter from the eyes, nose, mouths
and ears, after which the body broke out all over like small-
pox, from which discharges were constantly taking place.
A short time before dissolution the body turned quite black,
thus exhibiting in every stage of the disease the virulent
nature of the infection. Hawley is, we understand, better,
but it has been found necessary to destioy one of the pigs.—
Notts Mercury.;

TAINDIENT TO HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE DUCHESS or

of plate, and the entertainment was altogether of the moat
sumptuous character. The Duchess of Gloucester was sup.

at the port of London of a quantity of cheroots, which the
' officers of the revenue found concealed within the hammock;
of some of the crew of a vessel arrived from Calcutta, tha
principal officers of the revenue at this port, and the collectors
the several outports and places throughout
and controllers at
the kingdom, have received direction ons to appriz
novele the officers
under their control and supervisi of this mode of
smuggling,and to enjoin them to use their best endeavours
to detect and prevent any smuggling which may be at-
tempted by similar means, taking care to acquaint the

brated literary club dined together on Saturday last. Tha

REPRESENTATION OF NV ALSILL.—JuNE 20. The
Hon. E. R. Littleton, the son of Lord Hatherton, in a circular
to the electors of Walsall, has a • nnounced his intention of
offering himself as a candidate for their suffrages
whenever
dissolution of Parliament shall occur. The Hon. Gentleman
says, " I shall then take the earliestof inimcg
opportunity
a statment of my opinions upon the various political ques-
tions now engaging pubiic attention, which I trust will justify
me in soliciting your general support, and secure to me the
honour I shall most highly prize of becoming your represen-
tative in Parliament." There is understood to be no founda-
tion in the rumour that Mr. C. Forster, the barrister soh of
the former Member for the borough), will offer himself.

arrived at the port of Liverpool, from Shanghae, China;,

DINNER TO LORD G. BENTINCK.—We understand it
is the intention of the friends of agricultural protection to
invite Lord George Bentinck to a public dinner at Lynn, as
mark of their esteem for his public integrity, and their admi.
ration of the great talent he has displayed in his place in the
House of Commons. We have no doubt that although this
feeling has emanated from Lynn, and the agriculturists of
that neighbourhood, it will be cordially responded to, not
only in this but in the adjoining counties. It is confidently
expected that the Duke of Richmond and other noblemen
friendly to agricultural protection will attend.—Lynn Adeer.
tiser of Saturday.
ROYAL SAPPERS AND MINERS.—WOOLWICH, Juni
20.—A detachment of Royal Sappers and Miners, consistinc
of seven non-commissioned officers and men, have been or.
dered to embark at Liverpool for North America, to be em-
ployed in the survey of the country between Quebec eta
Nova Scotia, a distance of six hundred miles, it being the
intention of the Government, it is stated, to form a line 14
railway between the two places.
