It is our painful duty to record in our obituary of
this day, the death of Lieutenant Edward William Sainsbury, of
Brynbella, Flintshire, who fell in the late insurrection of Cabul.
It is only a few weeks since that the coming of age of this gallant
soldier was celebrated with very great rejoicings at the family seat,
when all was gaiety and cheerfulness; but the scene of these festi.
vities is now turned into mourning. This brave and promising
young officer wall the eldest son of Sir John Salusbuuy ; and all who
were related to him, or shared his intimacy, are plunged into deep
affliction at his early and unexpected fate.—Carnarvon Herald.

MAIL TO LANCASTER.—Arrangements are
in course of being made for establishing a daily mail coach from
Newcastle-upon-Tyne to Lancaster, by Durham, the Aucklands,
Staindrop, Barnard Castle, Bowes, Stainmore, Brough, Kirby
Stephen, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Lonsdale, and so opening out an
important communication with Liverpool, Manchester, and all
parts of the west and south of England, as well as Ireland and
Wales• The Lord Exmouth coach has long been the only con-
veyance through this district, and save the Newcastle and Carlisle
Railway, the only way of crossing the country between the east and
west coasts. The post. office authorities have made arrangements
with the proprietors for converting the coach into a mail ; and it
will leave Newcastle about mid.day, and Lancaster on the arrival
of the London train at eight in the morning.—Manckesler Paper.
