SPLENDID INTERVIEW.—It is stated in a
private letter, that RUNJEET SING was advancing to the
camp with 60,000 men and 150 guns, a formidable dis-
plsy, to meet the Governor-General in all honour and
courtesy.— Calcutta Paper.

Yesterday morning a Kingston barge, heavily
laden with malt, proceeding down the river with a rapid
tide, struck upon the ruins of the south pier of the centre
arch of old London-bridge. The concussion was so ♦io•
lent that the hick of the barge was broken. Owing to
prompt assistance the lives cf the men were Laval, and the
major part of the cargo preserved.
A Lincolnshire man observed in company,
that in some parts of the county of Lincoln the soil was so
prolific, that if you turned a horse into a new-mown field
at night, the grass would he grown up to his fetlock
joints next morning ! " Ram !" says a Yorkshireman,
‘' if you turn a horse into a new-mown field at night, in
our county, you can't find him next morning ;"—The

LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY EVENING.-
Arrived the Orion, from Mobile ; Czar, from Charleston ;
Vanguard, from Lisbon, sailed the 6th instant; Bispham,
from Ales.ina; and Zaherewsky, from Uleaborg. Passed
Holyhead, the Robin Hood, from Charleston ; Dorothy,
from Bombay; Virginia, from Charleston ; Frances
Ann, from Calcutta; and Miramichi, from St. John's
New Brunswick.

More than half the number of pitmen on the
Tyne and Wear, we regret to state, still remains unem-
ployed. The coal-owners have sent for about 200 lead-
miners. Early on Thursday morning last, from 100 to
150 men proceeded in disguise to Messrs. Bitaiirmixo's
colliery at South Shields, and by throwing down the shaft
corves, tubs, &c., did damage to the extent of about 2001.
A reward of 100 guineas is offered for their apprehension.

TRADE OF BARNSLEY.—We rejoice to
learn that the linen trade of this place is much improved.
Nearly all the weavers of character in the town and neigh-
bouring villages are employed. The bleaching grounds
begin to exhibit their wonted colour; and other symp-
toms of animation are visible in the town and neigh•
bourhood.—Manck ester _Herald.

A STRANGER AT HOME.—An accident of
a droll and rather a novel character, took place in the me-
tropolis on Saturday last :--A man passing through Ox-
ford-street with his caravan, in which a large assortment
of animals of a shelving description were congregated,
when, unluckily, the axletree broke, and all that the vehi-
cle contained was dislodged in the street. Several mon-
keys made their escape in various directions ; one of them,
(a monkey probably who had seen the world) took shelter
in a cook's shop, and established himself before a large dials
of plum-pudding, of which he devoured several slices, in
spite of all the efforts of master and twat to prevent him.
At length the showman appeared, and July), not without
difficulty, was secured, and carried off vi et al-11as.

APPRENTICES TO INSOLVENTS.—It has
been recently decided by the Justices in Session, that an
insolvent, atter his discharge cannot require his apprentice
to continue to serve him, he not having tools and business
to properly teach the boy his trade, and the indentures
were ordered to be cancelled.

The Moniteur publishes a statement of the
receipts of the first three months of 1832 compared with
those of 1830 and 1831. There is in 1832 a diminution
of 10,636,0001. as compared with 1830. With respect
to thi., it should be remarked that the lowering of the
tariff of liquors from the lot of January, 1831, has reduced
the receipts compared with those of 1830, by a sum
total of 32,400,000 f., which presents on the first quarter
a ditninution of 8,100,000 f. The diminution, inde-
pendent of this special cause, is therefore 0n1y2,536,000f.
The receipts of 1632, compered with those of 1831,
present an increase of 5,047,0001., which is principally
in the registry And stamp duties, mortgages, salt, indirect
tax,.s, public coaches, nivigation, sales of snuff, postage,
money sent by the post, &c. There was a considerable
diminution in last March compared with the same month
in 1530, arising from the fact of the produce of the month
of March, 1830, having been much greater than that of
the same month of the preceeding years, owing to the
great frost, which had considerably lessened the produce
of the months of January and February. The produce of
the duties and indirect revenues during the first three
months of 1830 was 139,961,000 f. In the budget of
1832, as originally framed, the duties and indirect reve-
nues had for basis the receipts of 1830, with a diminution
of 32,400,000i' on liquors, on account of the lowering of
the tariff, and of 2,04`2,000f. on the lottery, making to-
gether 31,412,000 f. The produce of the first quarter of
IS3O must then be reduced by one-fourth of this sum in
order to be oampared with the same quarter of the year of
1832. On deducting, therefore, 8,610,000 f., there re-
mains to be compared 131,3f#1,0001. The first quarter
of 1832 having produced 129,328,000 f., the real diminu-
tion is only 2,026,000 f. This diminution appeals in the
.‘ll-oniteur to be 2,536,000 f., because the reductions con-
templated in the lottery are not there taken into account.
