The Osservatore Romano quotes a letter from For-
tici, of the 21st ult., announcing the return of M.

ANTONRLLT, and the preparations for the
Porn's departure have since then been
pressed with greater alacrity. On the other hand,
the correspondent of the Statuto of Florence writes
from Rome, 24th, that serious apprehensions are
entertained of the POPE'S changing his mind again.

advices from Bahia to the Ist of Alarch, and from Rio

LORD JEFFREY'S MONUMENT. About 2,0001. has

Sixteen human skeletons, of apparently full-grown
persons, have lately been discovered in a field belonging to
:
Mr. William Niger, of Upton, in the parish of Long Sutton,
by a man employed in cutting a ditch. They appeared to
have been buried in nearly a straight line, ranging from
north to south, and they were laid in cavities about three
feet in depth, cut in solid rock at irregular distances from
each other. It is but a few years since that several human
bones were discovered in a field about two hundred yards
from this spot. There can be no doubt of their being the
remains of some
bold but unfortunate warriors, who fell,
probably, in battle centuries ago, but on what occasion his-
tory does not record.—Bath Chronicle.

INFLUX Op Su/pp/NG. The large number of 129
vessels reportel at • the Custom-house on Saturday last as
having arrived from foreign and distant parts with cargoes
of general merchandise • and 56 vessels also reported on
Monday as having arrived
in the port of London from abroad.
These numerous arrivals comprised some not only from almost
every continental port of Europe, but also from the East and
West Indies and SJuthAmerica,and some witk various descrip-
tions of merchandise from every quarter of the globe. The
arrivals have lately, in consequence of the prevalence of
easterly winds, been in a great measure limited to steamers
from the continental states of Europe, with French, German,
and other produce; and to vessels with grain, &c., from
those and the adjoining states; and this Sudden influx of
shipping from all
arts of the woed will have the effect of
giving the required impetus to the jetport trade of this vast
p
metropolitan port, and create a great deal of bustle at the
docks and other places at the water-side.
