PATENT MACI-11N.ERY for COOPERAGE.
A very important invention, or rather a series of
inventions, for"making all sorts of casks and vessels,
employed by brewers, wine•merchants, or used in
the Royal or mercantile navy, has been patented by
a Mr. Rosenborg, and may be seen, in extensive ope-
ration, at the Patent Cooperage works, in ;the Wen-
loak-road, City-road, where, by means of steam
power, and by the manual labour of fourteen or fifteen
men and boys, upwards of two hundred hogsheads
are made every day, at a very great saving of time
and expense, a hogshead being completely finished,
from the raw material, a piece of American or Memel
oak, in the almost incredible short space of four
minutes. The machinery consists of circular saws,
of a perfectly novel invention, for jointing and
backing the staves ; and of a machine called a trussing
machine, in which the staves, when shaped, are
placed, and compressed, or drawn together into a
circle, over which staves, when so compressed, the
hoops are immediately placed, and the whole ope-
ration finished. The extreme neatness and accuracy
of the work is extraordinary, every stave and every
cask being as perfect as if cast in a mould. When it
is considered that the great brewing firms of this me-
tropolis, and the exporters of ale, &c., ,annually
expend in cooperage tens of thousands of pounds, some
idea may be formed of the importance of this inven-
tion, and of the sensation it is likely to make amongst
the " trade." It ought to be seen by every admirer
of the progress of mechanical art, and by all persons
interested in the progress of improvement.

The Grand Jury of Devonshire, at the late quarter
sessions, presented a written request to the magistrates,
to use their influence to procure the abolition of that institu-
tion, as being of no utility in the administration of justice.
CHANCERY APPOINTMENTS.—The vacancies caused
by the elevation of Vice-Chancellors Sir,J. L. Kniglit,Bruce
and Lord Cranworth to the offices of Lords Justices, it will
be seen,..have been filled, up by the appointment. of Master
Kindersley and Mr. James Parker, Q.C. The, vacant Mas-
tership in Chancery; it is believed, will -be conferred upon
Mr. Swanston Or Mr. W. M. James. The forrher gentlamaia'
was called to the bar so.long ago as -1813, and possesses the
highest reputation as a lawyer and a'scholar., The notes to'
Mr. Swanslon's Equity Rep its have always, been-cited with
the highest approbation, both on the bench and at the bar.
Mr. James was called to the bar in 1831, and has had consi-
derable practice at the Chancery bar, where he represents
the Crown in charity cases for the Attorney-General. lie
has also had an extensive practice on the Sou.h Wales circuit,
and is understood to be related by marriage to the present
Master of the Rolls.—Herald.

ANOTHER STRISS.—The example which has been
recently set by the workmen employed under Messrs. Jay,
the contractors for erecting the permanent terminus of the
Great Northern Railway at King's-cross, has, it appears,
extended to other parts of the metropolis from precisely
similar circumstances- No sooner was it known that the
men in the employ of the contractors for the works of the
Great Northern Railway had been successful in their de-
mands on Monday, than a general strike took place amongst
the large body of bricklayers and labourers in the employ of
Mr. Myers, the contractors for the erection of the New City
of London Hospital at Victoria Park. It is stated that a de-
putation from the East-end men met a number of the Great
Northern workmen on Tuesday evening for the purpose of

and twelve o'clock, on the arrival of the Hull steam-boat_
hior-
Newcastle, two women, who gave their names as Anne

bans and Mary Anne Miller, were given into custody
charge of causing the death of a child ten or twelve dayOsn.old.
The lwat left Hull about seven o'clock on Saturday night,the
with these two women and a child three years of age, to the
fore cab n, amongst other passengers. About eleven o'clock
in the evening the cries of another child were heard, and on
inquiries being made by the passengers respecting it, they
were told by the child wtio accompanied the prisoners that
she was the only one with them. At half-past eleven o'clock
as the cries were still heard, a search was made, when a
female child, which appeared to be ten or twelve days old,
was found wrapped up in a blanket, and the old woman Gor-
ham lying upon it. The child was taken out, but it died at
twelve o'clock. The prisoners, on the arrival of the boat at
Newcastle, were accordingly given into custody, but they
refused to give any account of themselves, and professed to
know neither where they lodged at Hull, the name of their
landlord, or of any shopkeeper or publican there. They said
they had no money, but on being searched 121. 10s. was
found upon Gorham, and 1/. 75. upon Miller. The prisoner
.V.lider claimed both the children, but there is reason to be-
lieve that she is not the mother of the youngest. They were
wrought up at the borough police-court on Monday, and re-
