The consecration of the new church at Camberwell,
which has been erected from the designs of Messrs.
Scott and Moffat, of Spring-gardens, on the site of the
one destroyed by fire in 1841, is expected to take place
on Thursday week, and active preparations are being
made for that purpose. The appearance of the sacred
edifice, both internally and externally, is worthy the
opulent and extensive parish at whose cost it has been
erected.
A Correspondent suggests the employment of the light
obtained from electricity to illuminate mines, instead of
lamps and candles, electrical light being produced with-
out burning, that is, independently of air, and confined
in tubes hermetically sealed.
On Thursday evening a numerous meeting was held
in the New Hall, Leicester, H. F. Coleman, Esq., of
Evington Hall, in the chair, when the objects of the
British Anti-State Church Association were advocated
by Mr. Miall, of London. The meeting was further ad-
dressed by six Dissenting ministers, and resolutions in
favour of the measures sought by the Association were
unanimously adopted.
Her Majesty's buck-hounds have had three private
meets during this week, and on each day at the kennel.
An untried deer was turned out on Wednesday at King's
Beech, which, after doubling about fur nearly two hours
in that immecii3te vicinity, was run into and killed on Old
Windsor-common. The public meets during the season
will be thrice a week.
We hear that the mansion and estate of Longford
Hall, Derbyshire, the residence of the late Dowager
Countess of Leicester, has been bequeathed to her lady-
ship's second son, the Hon. Edward Wentworth Keppel
Coke, of the Scots Fusilier Guards.
Workmen are busily employed in preparing the Guild-
hall for the Lord Mayor's banquet on Saturday next, the
9th instant. During the last few days a wooden floor-
ing has been laid down, upon which is painted, in imita-
tion of a carpet, the arms of the Lord Mayor elect, the
Company to which he belongs, and those of the City,
the whole surrounded by a neat scroll work. The civic
procession will, it is understood, after leaving Guild-
hall, proceed through King-street, Cheapside, Manion-
house-street, King William-street, to London-bridge,
where the Lord Mayor, &c., will take water, returning
by the usual route, up Bridge-street, Blackfriars, Lud-
gate-hill, St. Paul's, Cheapside, to Guildhall.

HERRINGS.—So great was the glut of fresh her-
rings which were landed at Billingsgate from the smacks
throughout Friday that they were selling in Clare-mar-
ket at 30. per dozen, and were cried throughout the
various streets of the metropolis, being perfectly fresh
and in full season, at threepence per dozen, whilst fresh
pilchards, a fish very rarely seen in thl• London mar-
kets, were selling at the rate of three halfpence per
dozen ; and flounders were offered at the exceeding low
Frio of one penny per score.
