—Civil Service Gazette.

STEPHENSON AND BRUNEL.—In accordance
with a very generally expressed wish Mr. D. Brucciani, of
Little Russell-street, " formatore" 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'shandiwork 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.—Her Majesty's Emigration Com-
missioners have given notice of their intention to receive
tenders on Thursday next, the 19th inst., for shipping to
convey liberated Africans to the West Indies from Sierra
Leone and from St. Helena, at each of which places there
are now about 400 Africans. One ship will be required to pro-
cced 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. Helena. 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 for at the rate of £2 per
heal.
MINES.—This week, the buoyant appearance ofthe
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 large investments
have been made in both copper, tin, and lead mines. Specu-
lators, and those who prefer progressive mines for a rise,
and far early dividends, have been buying largely in such as
Cook's Kitchen, Calvadnack, Treloweth Wheal; Unity,
Wheal Grenville, Tolcarne, East Russell,StrayPark, North
Itoskear, West Trevolyan, Cystanog, Great Troveddoe,Red-
moor, North Robert, Gonamena, Pendeen, Wheal Harriet,
East Rosewarne, North Frances, West Frances, Holm-
bush, North Downs, Crowlwm, South Basset, Dave of
Towy, West Stray Park, and a few others. Among divi-
dend mines, C,litford, West Seton, Devon Consols, East
Basset, South Frances, West Camden, Trelawney, Kelly
Bray, South Caradon, lierodsfoot, United Mines, Provi-
dence Mines, St. Ives Consols, Wheal Seton, South
inquired
for; and others, have been most
and some of them, as will be• seen, have
had a considerable rise in market value. Wheal
Clifford have advanced to 320, 330; the accounts at the next
meeting will show a credit of about £11,280, and a dividend
of £lO, or probably .£ll, per share will be declared. United
Mines have been done at 110 to 1121, but leave off bettor,
at 110 to 120 ; the 220 fru. level is 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
as high as 110, and leave off 13:5 to 110; we do not hear
of any change or improvement in the Mina, nor can much be
expected till the lode is cut in the 90, Gr
0.

St. Aubyn haw been flatter, and leave off 57i to
Bray have advanced to 41, 41, and a gout demand. Tor-
came have reached 5; at the meeting a call of 2s. was
m: de. In the adit level a good coqrso
ore was gone
through for several fitthonia, 11.4 c 1 N.4,in4e sinking below
the edit, 20 fins. east of the shaft, is reported worth 5 tons
fm,the mine in depth fulill the promises held
out at the tulit (anti this wir4o looks well for it), it will soon
take a good position.--.ltiiiing /mom/ of this 7 cay.
