PRICE OF SUGAR.
The Average Price of Brown or Muscovado Sugar, for the
week ending July 16, 1844, is 325. 2id. per cwt., exclusive
of the Duties of Customs paid or payable thereon on the im-
portation thereof into Great Britain.

FATAL OCCURRENCE.—In consequence of the work-
men at the Garscube coalworks, the property of Messrs.
Barclay, having been off work on Monday and Tuesday,
on the afternoon of the latter day, Mr. Alexander
Foulds, the foreman at the works, accompanied with
another person, went down to inspect and see if they
were free from the carbonic acid gas, or choke
damp, so that the men might go down safely on
the day following. On arriving at the bottom of
the pit, the air was at once found in so impure a
state that the lights went out. Though this took
place, Mr. Foulds, in his desire to satisfy himself
further, resolved to creep along the floor of the pit,
while his companion waited for him at the bottom of the
shaft. He had not proceeded far when he was heard to
give a moan ; the man accompanying him immediately
went to his rescue, but; before he found him he also was
nearly overpowered. He found Foulds insensible, and
being unable to carry him out, he was obliged to go to
the surface for assistance, when every means was taken
to infuse fresh air into the pit, but it was next morning
before this was accomplished, so as to permit a descent,
when the sufferer was found lifeless.—Scotch paper.
CLYDE IMPORTS.—We observe from the Clyde Bill
of Entry of Saturday last, that the foreign imports into
the Clyde during the two preceding days (viz. the 11th
and 12th) have been of a very extensive kind, and larger,
we believe, than during any similar period for the last
three years. They amount to 17 vessels, nine of which
came to Glasgow, five to Greenock, and three to Port-
Glasgow. They bring cargoes chiefly from our North
American Colonies. Amongst them, however, are three
vessels with guano, two from Ichaboe, and one from Pau
de Asucar, containing upwards 1,000 tons of this .valu-
able fertiliser These foreign ships were accompanied
by a large fleet of coasters. On the three preceding
days of the same week there were nineteen arrivals from
foreign ports, two of the ships being from Ichaboe, with
1,250 tons of guano.—Scottish Guardian.
INVERNESS, JULY 13.—Our market this year has
been well attended. Perhaps there never was so large
a number of southern dealers present ; and business has
been transacted at an earlier period of the market, and
with much less trouble than in former years. The ex-
tent of business and the rate of prices are no less satis-
factory and cheering. The average price of Cheviot
wool last week was 11 s. per stone, the average price this
year is better than I6s. Some lots have been sold at
175., and even at 18s. Cheviot wethers from 225. to
275., with the exception of two lots at 295. Cheviot
ewes from 14s. to 16s. ; one lot sold at 17s. Cheviot
lambs average Bs. 6d., but some lots have fetched higher
prices. Black-faced stock has also sold well ; the we-
thers have not advanced in proportion to the Cheviot,
but ewes hare been in good demand, at from 7s. to 10s.
The weather is highly favourable, with seasonable
showers, which are bringing on the turnip fields and
grain crops in a manner that makes the farmers here
rejoice.

'CITY ANTIQUITIES.—On Thursday, at the end of
Little Trinity-lane, Upper Thames-street, while the men
were excavating the ground for the formation of a sewer,
they found a large quantity of human and animal bones,
and which were mixed with the earth for several feet up the
lane. During the last fortnight, in Huggin-lane and Bread-
street-hill, being adjoining to Little Trinity-lane, similar
excavations are going on, when very extensive foundation
walls of Roman construction were met 'with, traversing
Bread-street-hill, and passing up the entire length of
Huggin-lane and Trinity-lane. In some places they were
so strong that they could not be broken but by the applica-
tion of iron wedges. In other places they were composed
of chalk. Several silver and copper Roman coins were also
found, fragments of fresco-painted walls, square fiat tiles
about twelve inches square, with inscriptions on them, and a
quantity of tesselated and common Roman pavement. In
this neighbourhood the Commissioners of Sewers for the
City have contracted for the erection of about 6,000 feet of
sewerage.
ti Tna PITMEN.—Nearly 200 Welsh pitmen arrived
in this town by railway on Tuesday evening, and on the
following morning they proceeded to the colleries at
Seghill and Hasting's Hartley. The old pitmen obsti-
nately adhere to their wrong-headed course, and the
families of many of them are encamped in fields and
bye-ways. The funds appear to be nearly exhausted,
for groups of men are daily singing through the prin-
cipal towns; and their dress and appearance belies many
of the complaints they have brought against the coal-
owners. What makes the evil more grievous in a moral
point of view is, that the women have become beggars,
and the children paupers.—Netrcastle Advertiser of
Thursday.
We have authority to state that Lady Brougham's
party, announced for Friday, the 26th, takes.place on,
Thursday, the 25th instant.
