SALE OF TEIE HULL OF TIIE J&IIES BAlNES.—Yester- I
day the bull of the well-known clipper ship James Baines,
the famous Australian ship, was offered for sale at the i

lay, in the Huekiscon Dock, with 18 water-tanks on
f
board. The attendance was very large, including many

of the shipowners of the port. The first offer made was
5001., speedily followed by one of 8001., and after a few
advances it was knocked down to Captain Pace for the
sum of 1,0801. It may be stated that the James Baines
originally cost 35,01)0/. It is believed she will be re-
built, as her hull is in very good condition, being
heavily sheathed with yellow metal and copper fastened.
After the sale of the hull, the sails, chains, anchors, &c.,
were disposed of, and averaged pretty f sir rater.
Harvest operations have commenced in many of the
earlier districts of the West of England, and most kinds
of grain have already fallen to the sickle. We have
seen samples of new wheat from the neighbourhood of
Somerton and Cheddar, spring barley from Abingdon
and Teignmouth, and peas, winter beans, oats and
barley, from many pa,ts of Somerset, Gloucester, and
Monmouth.—Bristol Mirror.
A. LION IN Tan PATIL—Aa the diligence which plies
between Guelma and Bona, in Africa, was a few nights
ago proceeding along the road near the village of Pen-
tbievre, the horses all at once reared up and refused to
advance, and the driver perceived a gigantic lion seated
in the middle of the road. H. e at once inforried the
passengers, and they all manifested the greatest conster•
nation; but at his engestion t'aey lighted chemical
matches and burnt paper. The light of the moon was,
however, so strong that it paralysed the glare of the
flames, and they produced no effect on the lion. The
Iconsternation of the passengers was on the increase, when
the animal relieved them by walking slowly away.—
