We understand the Lord High Admiral has
resolved upon fitting out another expedition to the North
Pole.

Peaches are so plentiful at Philadelphia, that
there-were 2,107 baskets of them at one market, and they
sold for 124 cents. (6d.) a bushel ! The price, at the
very same time, in New York, was about one dollar a
bushel.

The coach running through Windsor to Read-
ing was on the evening of Tuesday last overturned on the
footpath, near the entrance to Wokingham. The whole of
the fore carriage separating entire from the rest, the horses
turned round with it and galloped off at full speed towards
Bracknell, where they had been previously changed. The
turnpike-gate at Coppice-beech-lane being shot, three of
the horses leaped and cleared the gate, and with the fore
wheels and poles still attached to them, arrived at Brack-
nell, nearly four miles, passing two carts, a bridge, down
a steep hill, and several turnings. The fourth horse be-
coming entangled with the turnpike-gate was left behind,
and, as might be expected, they were all more or less hurt,
and greatly exhausted by the speed at which they had run.
There was but one inside passenger, who was fortunately
not hurt.

SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES OF AN AFFRAY.
—On Friday night, about ten o'clock, an affray took place
at the house of Mr. John Bailey, the White Bear Inn, on
Bradford Moor, between two men who were drinking.
During the scuffle it was intimated that there was not
fair play between the parties, on which, a brother to one
of them, named James Blaydes, a shopkeeper upon the
Moor, said he would go for something that would make
fair play. Accordingly, he went home, and procured a
sword-stick. On his return, a person named Win. Bower,
comber, of Horton, said if he (Blaydes) wished it, he would
stand as a match for him. They immediately commenced
fighting, and the former knocked the latter down. This
so much incensed Blaydes, that on rising, he stabbed
Bower with his dirk, under the left ribs. No hopes are
entertained of, the unfortunate man's recovery. Blaydes
attempted to escape, but was secured, and is now in cus-
tody.—York Chronicle.

A correspondent in the Farmer's Journal
strongly recommends the keeping of blood-hounds,. .to faci-
litate the detection of sheep-stealers, murderers, and othei:s.
As a proof of the sagacity of these animals, he relates the
following instance :—About IS years ago, a Mrs. Peaton,
near Lymington, llants, had a sheep shot about one o'clock
in the morning, as the report of the gun was heard about
that time ; and in the morning the sheep's paunch was
found. A person was sent for the hound, -to Mr. Edward
Toomer, keeper in the New Forest and before the hound
could be brought to the spot it was about two o'clock in
the afternoon, a space of time of 13 hou►:s. He was laid
on, and he followed :he scent, a very crooked road, to the
door of the culprit; the premises were searched in vain for
some time, but the hound could not be prevailed on to quit.
He at last went into the fuel-house, and then began scratch-
ing. On removing the fuel, a large stone was found,
which the hound scratched, and on removing which, the
mutton was discovered. A search-warrant was obtained,
the man taken before a magistrate, and sent to Winchester,
had his trial, and was transported.

The &Acid, Hearn, a missing ship from
Jamaica, has arrived off Cowes, and the follow-
ing letter from the Captain has been reeeived
" Sailed from Blue Fields, on the Ist of Au-
gust, with the ships Frederick Columbus, and
brig Enterprise. On the 24th and 25th of
August experienced a severe gale from E. and
E.N.E., which split main top-sail, laid the ship
to under main stay-sail, lost jolly-boat, and car-
ried away part of the bulwarks. On the 7th of
September a strong gale, which continued till the
10th, during which lost all three masts, and
chief mate and carpenter washed overboard ;
after which rigged jury-mast, and arrived off
Portland on the 16th inst. The gale com-
menced in lat. 39. long. 63."

SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.—Friday even-
ing, three females, of rather respectable appear-
ance, applied at the inn,`No. 70, Thomas-street,
kept by Air. William Power to lodge there for
that night.
They were admitted, and remained
for the night, 0, •
eupymg the same apartment.
In the morning they departed together; but had
not been long gone, when some person belonging
to the house on entering the room in which they
e, observed a small deal
rafter them. From some
boxhid slwieipicthtli theye i night ighhatdbleeffto
circumstances attending" the finding of the box,
curiosity, or perhaps rather suspicion, was ex-
cited respecting the contents. "lie lid was ac-
cordingly raised, in order to have a peep, when
the dead body of a new-born infant presented
itself to the eyes of the astonished beholders.
An active search was immediately instituted after
the lodgers, who were in a short time taken into
custody. They gave ,their names Anne Brien,
Bridget Brien, and Judith Kenney, the two
former being sisters. On examination, it ap-
peared that the parties were from the county
Carlow, from which they had travelled to town
together. The Briens, however, professing not
to have had any previous acquaintance with
Judith Kenney, and without whose knowledge,
although sleeping in the room with her, it was
ascertained, th:tt the latter had been delivered of
the infant, of which she had
gular a manner.
