STEPHENSON AND BRUNEL.—In accordance
with a very generally expressed wish Mr. D. Brucciani, of
Little Russell-street, " formatoro " to the British Museum,
the Royal Academy, and the Department of Science and
Art, engaged to produce a pair of busts of these great
engineers, and the friends and admirers of the illustrious
departed will be glad to hear that the task has been success-
fully completed. As works of art they have been pro-
nounced perfect. A day or two ago we were favoured with
a private view of M. Brucciani's handiwork which excited
our highest admiration. The likeness in both is most
striking, and the delicacy of finish remarkable. In a few
days we believe it is intended to issue casts to subscribers,
but arrangements have also been made by which parties
desiring to possess so interesting a memento in either
bronze or marble, can have their wishes realised, and that
in the highest style of art.
EMIGRATION.—IIer Majesty's Emigration Com-
missioners have given notice of their intention to receive
tenders on Thursday next, the 19th inst., for shipping to
eonvey liberated Africans to the West Indies from Sierra
Leone and frimi St. Helena, at each of which places there
are now about 400 Africans. One ship will,be required to pro..
mad to Trinidad and another to Grenada and St. Vincent.
The tenders must specify the rate per adult of ten years and
upwards (half-price for children), also the earliest day at
which the vessel would be ready to embark the passengers
at Sierra Leone or St. llelena. Payment will be guaran-
teed at the rate named in the tender on 300 passengers, if
the vessel can legally carry so many, but if more should be
embarked the excess will be paid fur at the rate of £2 per
heal.

MIN ts.—This week, the buoyant appearance of tbe
Mining Share Market, which we noticed in our last, has
rather increased. The further rise in copper has given a
greater stimulus to dividend stocks, and largo investments
have been made in both copper, tin, and lead mines. Specu-
lators, and those who prefer progressive mines for a rise,
and for early dividends, have been buying largely in such as
Cook's Kitchen, Calvadnack Treloweth Wheal; Unity,
Wheal Grenville, Tolcarno, East Russell,StrayPark, North
Roskear, West Trevelyan' Cystanog, Great Treveldoe,Red-
moor, North Robert, G on.imena, Pendeen, Wheal Harriet,
East Rosewarne, North Frances, West Frances, Holm-
bush, Nerth Downs, Crowlwm, South Basset, Wave of
Towy, West Stray Park, and a few others. Among divi-
dend mines, Milford West Seton, Devon Consols, East
Basset, South Frances, West Caradon, Trelawney, Kelly
Bray, South Camden, Herodsfoot, United Mines, Provi-
deuce Mines, . St. Ives Consols, Wheal Seton, South
Tolg tl:4, and others, have been most inquired
for ; and some of them, as will be seen, have
had a c.msiderable rise in market value. Wheal
Clifford have advanced to 320, 336; the accounts at the nest
meeting will show a credit of about £11,280, and a dividend
of £lO, or probably Lll, per share will be declared. United
Mixes have been done at 110 to
.1121, but leave off better,
at 110 to 120 ; the 220 fm. level ia said to be yielding
22 tons of copper ores per fathom, but is within 20 fathoms
of the boundary of Wheal Clifford. • East Basset have been
a's high as 140, and leave dif 135 to 110; we do not hear
of any change or improvement in the mine, nor can much be
expected till the lode 19 cut in the 90. Grambler and
St. Aubyn have been flatter; and leave off 571 to- 60. Kelly
Bray have advanced to 41, 41, and a goOd demand. Tol-
came have reached 5a ; at the meeting a call of 2a. was
made. In the edit level a good purseo 014 was gone
through for several fathoms, and a whiz° sinliing below
11w sa 1, 0 fins, fi4st of the shaft, is reported worth 5 tons
per fm. Bhonld the nine in depth f 14141 the promises held
out at the edit (awl this wp.4e looks well for it), it willsoon
take a good pokitioller-sginztig lOurnal of this clay,
