QUEEN.—There is now no doubt that the contemplated
visit of his Majesty the King of the French to the Queen
has been postponed for about a month, if it be not alto-
gether abandoned. The middle of October, however, is
now mentioned as the probable period for the arrival' of
the French monarch in England. Her Majesty and his
Royal Highness Prince Albert, with a portion of the
infant Royal Family, are expected to set out on their
marine excursion between the sth and the 9th proximo.
The precise day for the departure of the Court from
Windsor Castle has not yet been finally determined
upon. Her Majesty is not expected to be absent from
Windsor Castle more than a fortnight or three weeks.
It is considered very probable that her Majesty and the
Prince Consort will visit Claremont for a day or two
previously to proceeding to the Isle of Wight.—Post.

A new description of goods waggon or box has
been in use on the Manchester, Leeds, and Hull Asso-

ance they are very much like a cottage placed upon a
truck, are about twelve feet long and six to eight feet
high, have, instead of the loose covers used on other
waggons, substantial sloping roofs, are completely
bearded up to the roof, hare a door in the middle of each
side, and a trap-door in the floor, They are at present
chiefly used for salt, of which each wagon is capable of
containing six tons, but they are loaded up to four and a
half tons.

THE MURRAIN.—This contagious pestilence makes
alarming havoc among the cattle of the several parishes
of Aberdaron, Bryncroes, Llanengan, and Lleyn in this
°minty. It is of so malignant a nature that every
animal attacked dies almost instantaneously. SOW
pestiferous distemper, of the like nature, makes a shock-
ing devastation among the swine.—Carnarvon Herald.
