-v_a_ to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, in the
month of January, (unless an acceptable offer be previously made
by Private Contract),

situate in the High-street, Lowestoft, and carried on successfully
for many years by Messrs. G. and W. Everitt, but in consequence

industry only would be required in the management to
realise an extension of the free and private trade, which is
at present considerable. The home premises comprise an
excellent residence, brewhouse, with tun rooms and stores,
yard and stabling. The fixed plant, which will be included in
the purchase, Consists of a 15 quarter tun, two brewing coppers,

PARIS AND STRASBURG LINE—RHEIMS BRANCH AND
SARREBRUCE. EXTENSION.—III the terms of the conces-
sion of this line, the company must construct a branch
to Metz, and extend the line to Sarrebruck. The follow-
at Longeville, or in front of the village of Ars; a stone--
bridge of twenty-one metres over the Rue de Mad, near
Amaville; another bridge of 140 metres over the Mo-
selle, in front of Frouard; two bridges over the Canal
le la Marne-au-Rhin; seven viaducts, and thirty-six
level passages across common roads. As the Metz line
is traced in the valley of the Moselle, the gradients will
be very slight, except at the approaches to the bridges,
.ind also the approaches to the principal line. But for
:hese, the gradients would not be more than four milli-
metres in a metre.
LUBECK AND SCHWERIN.—.A. letter from Hamburgh,
of the 2d of December, states that the decision of the
\feeklenburg Chambers regarding the Lubeck and
Schwerin projected railway, is anxiously awaited in that
:own. The complaints of the towns of Wismar and Ros-
tock, the letter also states, find no echo in Hamburgh,
.where the opinion was, that instead of suffering any in-
jury from that railway, they would derive from it as
much advantage as any other towns.
SCHWERIN, DEC. I.—HAGENOW AND SCHWERIN
DlNE.—Opprations on this line have commenced to-day,
'tear the "Field Gate" of this city ; Baron von Lutzow,
he Minister of the Interior, raising the first sod of earth
al the presence of the Town Council, the Directors of the
railway, all the officers employed in the department of
Public Works, and an immense assemblage of the inha.-
eitants of the city. The sod having been raised, M.
Irndt, the architect, wheeled the first barrow of earth.
I'he line will be 20 miles in length, and the expense of
.aeh mile 150,000 Hatnburgh marks. Few difficulties pre-
.ent themselves between Hagenow and the Ostroff Lake..
mince there will be but few cuttings and embabliments,.
mad those of no great magnitude. In the vicinity of
Schwerin, however, several natural obstacles will have to
be surmounted. Tne Schwerin station, the length of
which ail' be 2,400 feet, and the breadth 960, must, to
.Kt placed on a level with the road of the Lubeck, bet
oink twelve feet into the ground. From the station the.
'ins will proceed partly through and partly round the
town, making occasional curves, to Lake Ostroff. Cut-
tings of 6,000 feet in length, and 30 feet in depth, will
acre be repaired. The ground from these cuttings will
le made use of for the formation of the great dam to be
made across the lake. The other works of art which de-
.erve mention are a bridge over the river Sucle, and a
unnel under the road of Wittenburg. This town,
being the central point of all the Mecklenburg railways,
a manufactory will be built at the station for the con-
truction of the engines, the cost of which is estimated
at 200,000 Hamburgh marks.

MISS CUSHMAN AND SHERIDAN KNOWLES.—Thi
accomplished actress, after delighting the Glasgow audiences
ror the last fortnight with her admirable and varied perform-
ances, took her farewell benefit on Saturd iy evening. The
performances were Sheridan Knowles's play of The Wye
and the last two acts of Guy Mannering. We were gratified
to see an
,overflowing house. We understand that she has
proceeded to Newcastle-upon-Tyne, to fulfil a short engage
tient in that town, prior to appearing in London on the 29th
instant. On this occasion she will perform the part of Romeo,
and her sister, a lady who is no stranger to the American
stage, but who is new to this country, will make her ap -
ince as Juliet. We should not omit to mention a little in-
cident which occurred before the curtain rose on Saturday-
Mr. Sheridan Knowles, whose great admiration for Miss
Cushman's acting is no secret, was observed to take his seat
in the boxes, and though he seemed to shun observation, not
to court it, he was observed by some persons in the pit. The
`act of his presence spread rapidly through the house and a
round of applause—renewed again and again— saluted the
poet, and showed in a most gratifying manner the respect
of the people of Glasgow for his genius and character.—
Glasgow Argus.
THE STAFFORDSHIRE POTTERIES.—The trade of
this district has never been, probably, in a more flourishing;
state than at the present moment. Every branch of " the;
potter's art" is in full work, and good hands are sought after.
We believe that without exeeption every manufactory is in
active operation, and it is satisfactory to state that compara-
tively little is doing for stock, but almost entirely to order--
Ste/Ton/shire Mercury.
COMPETITION CARTOONS FOR THE ART•UNION OF
LONDON.—In order that the Committee may determine what
accommodation will be required for the exhibition of the
cartoons to be submitted in competition for the premium of
500/. offered by the society, artists were each requested to
send to the office on or before Monday last, a sealed letter
containing his name and address, and having on the outside
the title of his intended painting, and a motto or device, by
which the cartoon must also be distinguished. In compli-
ance with this request, 26 letters have been forwarded to the
office, and the Committee are now seeking a fitting gallery to
receive the designs. It may be well to mention, that artists
who have not sent intimation of their intention to forward a
cartoon are not thereby disqualified ; this was simply a re-
quest, not a stipulation.—The Builder.
NEVER TRESPASS ON A RAILWAY.—On Friday
evening as the engine-driver of the Python, from Chester to
Crewe (Joseph Rhodes), was approaching within two miles
and a half of Crewe, with the mail train up, lie saw some-
thing lying en the down-line like a human being, which he
reported to the inspector at the Crewe station, who immedi-
ately returned with the engine and picked up the body of a
respectably-dressed woman, who had been struck down by
the second-class train. Her head was broken to pieces, and
her left arm and foot cut off. It appears that the deceased is
the daughter of a respectable farmer near Bolton. Her name
was Ann Gregory. She had lived with Mr. Hill, of Wor-
lastone Rookery, and it is supposed was repairing thither to
see some of her old fellow-servants. The deceased, to econo-
mise and reach her destination on as good a read as possible,
had chosen to trespass on the railway, using the precaution
to allow the express train to pass her, and, not being aware
that another followed so quickly, she fell a sacrifice to the
second train. This sad accident should operate to warn
every one not to trespass on the railway, which is more
dangerous than those unacquainted with the traffic may be
led to suppose. Let us reiterate, however cautious any one
may think himself, never trespass on a railway.—Liverpoot
Al/non.
DISCOVERY OF TESSELATED PAVEMENT AT COL-
CHESTEIL—During the past week another relic of antiquity
has been brought to light in Colchester, in the shape of a
Roman tesselated pavement, of considerable extent, of the
plain red description, without any variegated design. The
scene of this discovery is in a garden recently purchased
by Mr. Bryant, of High-street, in the rear of the line of
houses on the eastern side of North-hill. It was dis-
covered by a man employed in donble-trenching the
ground, who, finding his spade obstructed by some hard
substance, carefully removed a portion of the earth, and
then called the attention of Mr. Bryant, jun., to the circum-
stance, by whose direction a larger space was laid bare, and
disclosed a portion of the pavement in question. This
encouraged him to further excavations, and a space several
yards in length by two or three in breadth has since been
uncovered. In the course of this operation remains have
been discovered of fresco-painted walls, and from portions
of charcoal and other appearances it is supposed that the
building of which the pavement original!), formed a part
must have been destroyed by fires Portions of urns, the

HANDSAME BEQUEST.—The treasurer of the Phi-
lanthropic Society, of St. George's-fields, has just received
the handsome sum of 2,000/. from the late Mrs. Ann War-
ring, as a legacy on behalf of its funds. It was reported at
the last quarterly meeting of governors, held on Friday
evening last, that a donation of 50/. had been sent by Mr.
John Salte. Out of the 55 boys admitted during the past
year, all but four had turned out well, and a resolution was
passed to admit the children of convicts, recommended by a
magistrate, by the payment of their board only. The re-
form school and other buildings in the course of erection by
the society are now very nearly completed. There are at
present 70 boys in the institution wholly maintained and
educated.
THE SEASON.—We have passed suddenly from
the temperature of spring to winter. During the whole of
last week the Welsh and Yorkshire hills have been covered
with snow or sleet, and yesterday morning the ice was very
thick on the ponds. This severe weather will check, at least
for a time, the disease amongst the potatoes, and will improve
the quality of the corn brought to the market.—Liverpool
Times.
EXTRAORDINARY FORTITUDE.—The Edinburgh
Weekly Chronicle narrates the following extraordinary in-
stance of presence of mind and fortitude. A few days ago,
Samuel Mason, tenter in one of Mr. Swan's mills near
Kirkaldv, met with a severe accident in the following man-
ner :—Having observed a cord entangled with one of the
belts, he went up a ladder to relieve the same; but, on doing
so, the slack portion of the cord took a turn round his left
thumb and arm as it was drawn onward by the movement of
the belt. Being thus fixed, he foresaw his instant destruc-
tion if drawn up to the pulley by the belt, end with singular
fortitude and presence of mind, he grasped a column close by
with his arms and legs, and held on till his arm was literally
sawed and torn asunder. Being thus relieved, he slid
down the column to the floor, took off. his bonnet and clapped
it on the bleeding stump, holding it with his hand, rushed
out, and across the street to his father- in-law, where, ex-
hausted and breathless, he fell on the floor, before the engine
was set off, being the first means by which any assistance
could have been rendered
.him. An express was immediately
dispatched for surgical aid to Is-irkalcly, a distance of more
than two miles, when his arm .was amputated above the torn
part; but finding the bone so much injured, they made an-
other amputation a little below the shoulder-joint He stood
the operations well, though he must have been much ex-
hausted from the loss of blood and the unavoidable length of
time that elapsed before surgical assistance could be rendered.
Nevertheless, after being carried to his own house in a chair,
he went up his own stairs os his feet, and has since been
doing wonderfully well.
MEMOIRS OF LADY HESTER STANHOPE.—The fol-
lowing is the character of Lady Hester Stanhope, as drawn
by the Quarterly B.eview, in its account of the very interest-
ing memoirs of her Ladyship lately published, and which are
attracting so much attention :—" Lady Hester Stanhope was
the grand- daughter of Lord Chatham ; she had all his spirit
and fire, much of his penetrating quickness, some of his fancy,
not a few of his eccentricities. In the great faculty of seeing
clearly into character she excelled to the last, and was sel-
dom mistaken, unless when her temper or her prejudice dug
pitfalls for her judgment. Her courage was undaunted at all
times; her pride towering like that of all her house; her
honour, like theirs, pure from every stain.; her generosity so
boundless as to spurn all the limits which h
ever er means
pre
at-
scribed. In her ideas and projects there was somewh.
of the romantic—much of fancy—little of reason or reflection
i
—vet with all this, which points to the ideal and
mpractic-
able,' she acquired an influence, an ascendant, over those
with whom she came in contact, whether public or private
P artie., which seems all but fahnlous. She might well have
been the chosen solace of the private hours of Mr. Pitt. She
was the daughter of his favourite sister, and lived with him
for the last years of his eventful life. With her great talents,
her lively and various conversation, her admirable manners,
her frankness, so likely to relieve one whose shyness was ha-
bitual and painful—she became the favourite associate of his
leisure, and was pits necessary to his existence
