NEW POWER.—The Quarterly Journal of Agri-
culture," just published, contains the following announcement :
We have reason to know that a new motive power, not yet
made public, has been discovered, which will prove cheaper,
simpler and more effective than steam. This new motive
power has been satisfactorily tested ; and we have no hesita-
tion in saying that it is the most important discovery ever made
by man.

On the evening of the 13th of February, two young
men of excellent character, both named John M'lsaac, bro-
thers' children, were attending a marriage settlement on the
Mainland, Moidart. Ere they left to return home, the tide
had made in the narrow channel which divides Island-Shona
from the Mainland. Being fearless young men, they dashed
in, one of them being a good swimmer, but unfortunately they
were both drowned. What makes the case more afflicting is,
that both were to have been married the following week, and
a messenger who went to invite them to the meeting of the re-
latives, (which usually precedes a marriage in the Highlands,)
found the bodies in the sea-weed close to the shore, one of
them apparently assisting the other to safety. Their friends
and relatives are in the deepest distrees, and the people in the
district of Moidart, who had just been engaged making bon-
fires and holding merry meetings to celebrate the return of the
Right Hon. Charles Grant, M. P., deeply sympathised in their
affliction. On the 16th their funeral was attended by all the
gentlemen and people of the district.—Greenock Advertiser.
EFFECTS OF TIIE LATE STORM.---During the
whole of Sunday week, and up to the evening of Monday, we
had a violent gale in this neighbourhood, (Liverpool) ; and it
is much to be feared, that when the melancholy detail shall be
fully developed, a great loss of life and property will be found
to be the result. The Cheshire shore and sands, from the
mouth of the Dee to the rock point, yesterday, exhibited strong
marks of the fury of the storm. The wreck of a large vessel
was seen on East and another on West Hoyle. In the neigh-
bourhood of Hoylake not less than seven vessels were on shore,
more or less damaged. Various articles of furniture and pieces
of wreck were floating in the Channel, and the shore was
strewed with fragments of a fir-built vessel, supposed to
be the Norah, from Demerara, which had been beaten to
pieces on or near East Hoyle. The wreck of the Superb
steamer lay on the Brazil Bank, opposite New Brighton,
about a mile from the shore ; whilst the Rescue, a Torquay
schooner, flour laden, from Ireland, was stranded a short dis-
tance from the Red Noses. On Monday, the scenery on the
coast from Hoylake to the Red Noses, would have furnished
a thousand sketches for the pencil of a Hogarth or a Cruik-
shank.

THE LATE SToßm.—On Tuesday last, during the
violent storm of wind, a melancholy and fatal accident occur-
red at Nuttall Mills, near Bury, the property of Messrs.
William Grant and Brothers. The concentrated force of the
wind, rushing up the glade through which the river runs,
struck against the wall, and the whole fell, without a moment's
warning, with a tremendous crash, and the floors of the whole
five stories and the attic, and their contents, together with the
roof, lay in ruins, burying three human beings, who had been
employed in the attic. As soon as possible, every exertion
was made to rescue the sufferers. James Duckworth was
taken out first, much cut about the neck and head, and bruised
on the left leg, and in about an hour the labourers came to the
body of a little girl, named Hamer, eleven years of age ; and
after labouring hard for four hours, they succeeded in taking
out the body of her brother, twelve years of age, both quite
dead. They were the oldest of a family of eight children,
and had not been in the room more than ten minutes previous
to the accident. The children were nearer the exterior wall
than Duckworth, and when .the floor gave way they both cast
an imploring and terrified look at Duckworth, and both perished
while the agonising scream for help was on their lips. The
little girl was found with its health still grasped in its hand,
and the boy was found in the water, collected at the bottom of
the excavation made for the engine. An inquest was held on
the bodies on Thursday ; verdict " Accidental Death."—
Duckworth is fast recovering.—Liverpool Chronicle.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, MARCH 9.

The House met for public business at five o'clock.
The Earl of RO SEBE RR Y moved for an extension of
time for the Judges of the Court of Session in Scotland to give
their opinion upon certain questions submitted to them by this
House upon the subject of the Law of Entail.— Granted.
The Marquis of BUTE presented a petition, signed by
1,223 landowners of Banbury, and its neighbourhood, praying
for protection to the agricultural interests. He had great
satisfaction in finding that the petitioners did not consider the
repeal of the malt tax a means of affording them protection.
