FATAL ENGAGEMENT WITH PIELATES.—A dispatch
from the Spitnish naval commander at the Philippine Islands,
of the 6th of June, mentions a sharp combat between five
Spanish feluccas, and four piratical vessels called pantos,
manned by Moors, which were captured on the 3d of May,
oft the Island of Paragua, being boarded by the Spaniards.
The loss of the Moors is calculated at a hundred men. One
of the Spanish feluccas blew up, occasioning a loss of about
twenty men, and there were two officers and eleven soldiers
and sailors killed, and one officer and sixteen soldiers and
sailors wounded in the action.

THE GREAT ORGAN FOR ST. GEORGE'S HALL.--
At the last meeting of the Town Council of Liverpool Mr. J.
B. Lloyd stated that after the most mature consideration of
the merits .3f various builders, and seeing the organ which
Mr. Willis had produced for the Great Exhibition, and the
novelties introduced into that instrument, the committee
had come to the unanimous conclusion that Mr. Willis
should be the person to whom the building of the organ for
St. George's Hall should be entrusted. The organ in ques-
tion is intended to be larger than any other in the world,
about twice the size of the famous one at Haarlem, and is
intended to be furnished with at least 120 stops.

We regret to learn that the Bishop of Bath and
Wells is in. a precarious state of health.

While some workmen were engaged in cleansing a
stream called the Swillgate, at Tewkesbcry, a few days ago,
they disc >vered a silver cup. When found it was as bright
as now. It is conjectured that it must have been there for
the last :WO years, as that time has elapsed since the river
has been cleansed, which is now being done under the direc-
tion of tike Board of Health.

AN ACCOMMODATING TRADESMAN.—An adver

tisement of " Boots wanted for a respectable hotel," at
Glasgow, produced the following reply from an enterprising
Crispinitrb at Kilmarnock :—" Gentlemen, I have just seen
an advertisement, and have to say that I am just your man,
and I trust the bargain will be for both our benefits. At the
sale of a man who brok lately, near haun this, I bought a
hunder pair, and they are at your bidding for three shillings
the pair a' o'er head. Your servant, J. T. N.B. I have
also on hand about fifty pair o' shoon, if they are wanted."—

long and consistent public career, and his many private
virtues, were unanimously adopted. A vote of thanks was
then passf:d to the Noble Chairman, at the close of which
Mr. J. Williams, M.P., announced that he had presided over
a meeting the previous day at St. Asaph, convened with the
same view as that at Rhyl, and as he was about to head a
deputation from the former place for the purpose of pre-
senting an address of congratulation to his Lordship, doubt-
less Lord John would receive both deputations at the same
time. The meeting then separated. On Thursday morning,

father, and was created a Peer of Great Britain on the 9th of
June, 1796, as Baron Dawnay; but, dying without issue,
that barony expired, and the second brother, William Henry,
succeeded to the title of Viscount Downs. His Lordship
died in the year 1846, leaving two sons and one daughter, of
whom the eldest son is the present William Henry Viscount
Downe, and the second son is the Hon. Payan Dawnay,
the present High Sheriff of Yorkshire. Mr. Langley was
unmarried, and is, we believe, succeeded in his vast posses-

THE BATEMAN CHILDREN AT ST. JAMES'S THEATRE.
—We perceive that her Grace the Duchess of Somerset spe-
cially patronises a " grand extra night " this evening, for
the benefit of Miss Ellen Bateman. The Batemans play
Shylock and Portia in the Merchant of Venice on this occa-
sion. Miss Ellen sings " Billy Lackaday "in Sweethearts
and Wives ; and the sisters afterwards play the various
principal characters in the petite comedy of Old and Young.
The success which has attended the performances of the
" Bateman Children" will ensure a full house for the benefit
of Miss Ellen.

SEIZURE OP THE NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY FOR
POOR-EATES.--We published last week a report of the pro-
ceedings of a special session held in St. Pancras, and the
granting of a warrant of distress by the magistrate against
the property of the London and North-Western Railway,
for the amount of a poor-rate of upwards of 1,000/., alleged
to be due from the North-Western Company to the vestry of
St. Pancras, for a poor-rate made on the 11`.2d of March last.
The warrant of distres3 was held over until Friday after-
noon, when Mr. Bedford, one of the
parochial brokers, took
formal possession of the Euston station. The company im-
mediately replevied, and the disputed amount was deposited
in the hands of the proper receiver in such cases for the
Court of Queen's Bench, in which court it is understood
legal proceedings will immediately take place to try the va-
lidity of the seizure, and the whole question at issue between
the St. Pancras vestry and the North-Western Railway
Company.
