EFFECT OF FULLER'S EARTH.—A man at Bath,
who rents Fuller's earth pits, excavates them, and sells
the produce to the cloth manufacturers in the neigh-
bourhood, stated, a short time since, that, in excavating
this earth, he had a good deal of the small at the mouth
of the pit, which, finding it to be in his way, he distri-
buted it over the adjoining field, in which there was a
young crop of barley and seeds, and that wherever it
fell the crop was surprisingly flourishing.—Sherborne
Journal.
TURN-OUT OF COAL MINIUM—On Friday last, the
coal miners in the employment of Mr. William Wrigley,
of Lowe Siie, and Mr. Jesse Ainsworth, of Pit Bank,
who have lately been on the strike, resumed work, the
masters having, it is stated, agreed to their demands.
The turn-outs have, therefore, now resumed work at
seven of the collieries ; but the miners employed by the
two principal firms, Messrs. Lees, Jones, and Co., and
Messrs. Barker, Evans, and Co., and a few smaller con-
cerns, are still on the strike, without any immediate
prospect of a settlement of the dispute. 'rho present
number of torn-outs, men and boys. is probably seven
or Light hundred.-11fanchester Guardian.

equal in flavour to the French dried plums, and a mach
finer fruit.-4Vanchester Guardian.
