COMPLETION OF MR. HOOK'S SAYINGS AND
DOINGS.—The October set of " Colburn's Modern Novelists"
will contain the First Series of " Sayings and Doings," com-
prising the Sfories- of Danvers, the Friend of the Family,
Merton, &c., in three vols. The Second and Third Series
have already been published in the collection, so that this cele-
brated work of Mr. Theodore Hook's may now be had com-
plete in 9 vols., at only 4s. per vol. bound. The principal
works of Mr. Ward, Lord Mulgrave, Mr. Lister, Mr. Gleig,

THE LATE FIRE IN THE " INNISFAIL."-The
hasty account which we gave in the Herald of Monday, of the
fire in the above fine vessel, we have since learnt was correct
in all the main particulars, except as to the loss of property,
which then could not be accurately ascertained. We have now,
however, the satisfaction to state that the injury done was not
so great as we were led to suppose at the instant, and which
the appearance of the flames indicated. We have reason to
believe that one thousand or fifteen hundred pounds will cover
the entire of the loss sustained by the shippers, and even that
sum is expected to be reduced. We regret, however, that
some of the exquisite paintings that have graced the walls of
Convamore, the property of that excellent nobleman, Lord
Viscount Ennismore, and which had been sent from Dublin,
after being renovated in their appearance, have suffered much.

There was a profusion of game exhibited in Taun-
ton market of Saturday last. Hares were very numerously
displayed, and sold at from 2s. to 3s. each.
A CONSIDERATE LANDLORD.—We are exceed-
ingly gratified to state that the difficulties which beset the
farmer—difficulties arising from defective produce as well as
from the unparalleled lowness of its price—are likely to be, in
a great degree, obviated by the kindness of considerate land-
lords. A few days since Lorenzo Clutterbuck, Esq., near
Caber, called a meeting of his tenantry, and announced his
intention of making a reduction of 25 per cent. on their rents
for the present year. The announcement was hailed with
enthusiastic gratitude, and we trust the noble example will be
generally followed.— Tl)Terary Free Press.

THE IGUANODON.—Some men, recently employed
in a quarry near Maidstone, discovered traces of bones in the
fragments of a large block of sandstone, which they had blown
to pieces in blasting it with gunpowder. Mr. Benstead, the
proprietor, had the scattered fragments collected, and upon
placing together such as would join, it was found they formed
a mass measuring eight feet by seven. The stones which en-
veloped the bones having been partially removed, a large por-
tion of the skeleton, of what has since been discovered to be of
the Iguanodon, was exposed to view. It has been purchased
by a number of gentlemen, and presented to Mr. Martell, by
whom it has been properly arranged, and placed in his beauti-
ful museum. It consists of many vertebrae of the back and
tail ; numerous toe-bones, some of which are 16 inches long ;
two claw-bones of peculiar form, two thigh-bones of great
length, one leg-bone, two clavicles, two bones of the chest,
and many which are so peculiar as not yet to be determined
on. It is said that this specimen exhibits many parts of the
osteological characters of the ancient monster not previously
known.

LITERATURE.—Among the interesting new works
and new editions which have lately appeared, particularly
deserving of public attention, we notice-1. Mrs. Gore's
best work, " The Romance of Real Life," published in
that popular collection " Colburn's Modern Novelists," at
only 4s. per vol. bound-2. At the same low rate, Cap-
tain Marryatt's best work, " The Adventures of a Naval
Officer," and Mr. Gleig's " Chelsea Pensioners," each in 3 vols.
—3. A new and improved edition of Lloyd's " Northern Field
Sports," with 33 plates, 2 vols. Bvo., 32s.—one of the most
valuable productions ever given to the Sporting World-4.
Mr. Fraser's " Highland Smugglers," 3 vols.—a story in
which we have the most animated pictures of hunting, of deer
stalking, of ptarmigan shooting, &c.-5. Mr. Carne's charming
" Letters from Switzerland and Italy, written during a two
years' residence in these countries-6. Mrs. Radcliffe's Poe-
tical Works, now first published in a separate form, 2 vols.—
and 7. Mr. Leigh Hunt's Prose Works, " The Indicator and
Companion," two admirable volumes, justly pronounced to be
worthy a place in the library next to the " Spectator" and
" Tatler."

BALLYSHANNON HARBOUR.—The progress in
the improvement of Ballyshannon harbour surpasses the most
sanguine expectations. A report from the working engineer
to the patriotic proprietor, Colonel Conolly, at whose sole ex-
pense the work is carried on, states that on the 10th instant,
being neap tide, two vessels, each drawing nine feet water,
had arrived there two hours before high water. The bar must
therefore be considerably deeper. The mate of the Elizabeth,
of Harrington, sounded the bar and the Patch while coming
in, on the 6th inst., and found them 16 feet four inches deep
in the shallowest part before high water. Mr. Stevenson, the
enb k and r 7 n"- - "Weer; had been daily expected to view the progress of the
wor
t thereon.—Enniskillen Chronicle.

pects of the farmer, which afe really all
appear to us of the most lamentable Rturn. As to the ave-
rage of rents being sustained under existing eircurastmiens the
impossibility is as evident as the distressed state of agTiculturists
is general. The most remarkable fact, llQWevor, is, that while
the farmer is selling his wheat at a non-remunerating price,
the people have not even the advantage of cheap bread, so
that the present position of affairs is doubly ruinous—it is
ruinous to the agriculturist, and presses on the labourer."
