LIGHTING OP ST. MAEGARET'S CHURCHYARD. —0 wing
to the frequency of garrtte robberies in St. Margaret's
churchyard the attention of the parochial authorities
was directed to the fact, that many of them were occa-
sioned by the want of proper lights in the neighbour-
hood. In consequence of this intimation, workmen were
yesterday busily engaged in erecting numerous gas
lamps across the yard.
Advices from Elsinore of Aug. 31, mention that on
that day four Russian vessels of war anchored off there,
coming from Archangel ; they were long three-masted
schooners, that had been built in Archangel, and were
on their way to Cronstadt to take in their engines and
full complement of guns, and where they will also be
fitted with screws. Several more vessels of the same
class are expected shortly to pass through the Shund
bound from their building yards in Archangel to their
port of completien, Cronstadt.
