SHEEP AND HORSES POISONED.—At Firbeck,
bear Tickhill, Mr Singlehurat, farmer, has sustained a
;110$t serious loss by reason of having upwards of 40 sheep,
Besides several horses and cattle, poisoned. It was at first
LuPPosed that they had been killed by electricity during the
Zinn which raged with great force over the neigh-
unrhood on Wednesday morning last ; but from seve-
ral sheep, horses, and cows having died suddenly, since
all investiolition has been made, which leads incontes-
tably to the belief that they have all been poisoned by rape
Ire Which had been forwarded to Mr. Singlehurst from
I'1"rerpool as manure but was used as food for cattle. An
,11alysis of the cake shows that it contains mineral poison.
4-Notwithstanding the heavy loss already entailed upon the
°wner it is feared that this will be increased by several
others, as both sheep, horses, and cattle are affected to
B°°ll an extent that they are not expected to recover.
CHRISTMAS-DAY IN THE WORKHOITSES,—Yester-
jutY being- the anniversary of Christmas, the poor, noc alone
;tithe metropolis, but throughout the kingdom, were either
-is the means of parochial taxation, or of private and
public benevolence, made participators in the usual festivi-
es adopted by the English nation in commemoration of
' Ile atevent. Among the gratifying features of the report is
fact that there will be found, as compared with the cor-
- li:Pending period of last year, a vrst decrease of pauperism.
easealinost. every parish and' district this is found to he the
• , and in the few instances where the contrary exists, the
Increase is so trivial is to be scarcely worth mention. An-
otis_th,er point is, that in most of the parishes there is a feeling
r„Ltne poor, in consequence of Christmas-day falling on a
4,PuIY, should not be denuded of any extra indulgences,
Li therefore in most instances additional allowances are
Znle, and the festivities kept up in most of the workhouses
au unions this day (Monday). The entire returns are
loloost satisfactory, and the diminution of poor is no doubt
'rnensequerit en increased commercial prosperity, affording a
ciaBa_ns of greater employment to the industrious and poorer

g traces,

' but was immediately stove in. A second was got
ready, but before she could be got launched the ves-
sel had so far settled down that the sea swept her
away, most of the crew holding on to her. She (the
Lady Franklin) soon afterwards eapsised,when the
deponent (Matthews) clung to the first portion of
the wreck he could lay hold of. The master and
passengers were endeavouring to launch the gig,
when the barque went down, head foremost.
About an hour afterwards he fancied he heard some
some one hailing, to which the deponent responded;
from which time till daylight he neither saw nor
heard anything. At daylight he distinctly saw a
man clinging to a plank not far off him, but he dis-
appeared soon after. About 9 a.m. next day, Nov.
30, he was picked.up by the Marley, screw steal's-
ship, of and from London, in lat. by account, 48 52
N., long. 60 40 W. ; wind at the time strong from
west north-west, with heavy, high, and very cross
seas. The deponent's limbs were much benumbed
by the cold, but after having a hot bath and dry
clothes soon recovered. He arrived in Cadiz
horbonr on the sth inst., and was brought to the
Consulate this morning, when he made this decla-
ration. " CHARLES MATTHEWS.
" Sworn before me this 9th day of Dec., 1859.
" J. M. BRACKENBURY, her Britannic Ma-
jesty's Consul."

Evans, merchant, of Royal Bank-buildings, Liver-
pool, and has been almost altogether engaged in the
South American and Liverpool trade. She cleared
at Liverpool on the 20th of November, and sailed
at 10 p.m. on the 24th ult. The following are the
