A lady of Emsworth had the misfortune, on
Sunday evening last, to lose her chinchilla boa. She
set the crier to work, offering a reward for its restora-
tion. " Whereas," vociferated our official personage,
giving all due preliminaries, a lady has lost hpr

MARKET—June 7.

We had another small supply of Wheat from the farmers
to-day, with little in coastways during the week, and sales
of all qualities were brisk at a further advance of 2s. per
quarter, having had some fine rain lately. The speculative
demand for Oats was less lively, and that market closed
heavily at a decline of Is. per quarter. Malting Barley
nominal, grinding parcels ready sale. Malt in good de-
mand. In Rye the sale is steady. White Peas, if
breakers, wanted. Fresh Flour ready sale.

THE ORKNEY ISLANDS IN PAWN.-Mr.
Anker, on looking over some old deeds and records
belonging to the Danish Crown at. Copenhagen, has
found that Great Britain holds the Orkney Islands
only in pawn ; that they were consigned to England
in lieu of a dowry for a Danish Princess, married to
one of our English Kings, upon condition that these
islands should be restored to Denmark whenever the
debt, for which they were pledged, should be dis-
charged. Therefore as the price of land and value of
money have undergone such considerable alteration
since this happened, it is in the power of Denmark,
for a very small sum, to claim possession of the Ork-
ney Islands.

By letters from Bombay it appears that a
meeting of the subscribers to the steam-fund was held
there on the 28th of January, when a petition to Lord
Clare was drawn up, praying his lordship to represent
to the Court of Directors the enormous additional ex-
pense that would be incurred, without any adequate
return, by the proposed arrangement of substituting
the port of Calcutta, instead of that of Bombay, as
the connecting point between India and Europe. The
petitioners contended, that as the primary object in
establishing steam communication between India And
England was the conveyance of intelligence, the trans-
fer of passengers being of inferior importance, the 10,3,
vantages possessed by Bombay over Calcutta; from its
comparative proximity to Suez, was most apparent,
and stated various facts in corroboration of their asser-
tion. They also stated their apprehension that the
proposed arrangement would discourage the whole de-
iign, which was only in its infanoy, and check the
efforts of the public, who had already subscribed
28,0001, towards the completion of this desirable ob-
ject. So plain a case as this hardly needed, one would
think, the formality of any petition or memorial on the
subject, A glance at the map is sufficient to determine
what the course ought to be.

EXTRACT FROM ROBERT HALL.--.
Events have taken place of late, and revolutions have
been effected, which, had they been foretold a very
few years ago, would have been viewed as visionary
and extravagant ; and their influence is far from being,
spent, Europe never presented such a spectacle be-
fore ; and it is worthy of being contemplated, with
the profoundest attention, by all its inhabitants. The
empire of darkness and despotism has been smitten with
a stroke which has sounded through the universe. When
we see whole kingdoms, after reposing for centuries on

which age hath cemented and confirmed, which power

decay. New prospects are opening on every side, of
such amazing variety and extent, as to stretch farther
than the eye of the most enlightened observer can
reach."
