FOREIGN CATTLE AND PROVISIONS,--The importa-
tion or foreign cattle and of salted provisions is in-
creasing, and there is every reason to expect that this
will become a very great trade. Hull, which
is so conveniently situate with regard to Hamburgh,
is the chief place for the importation of the former,
and Liverpool for the latter. The number of cattle
imported into Hull alone has now increased to about
250 head a week, and it will increase steadily, and
ultimately become very large. The countries from
which live cattle have been received up to the present
time, are Holstein, Hanover, Holland, Belgium,
France, and Spain. The places from which salted
provisions have been received are the United States,
Canada, Hamburgh, and Archangel, in Russia. Pre-
parations are also making to send large quantities from
Buenos Ayres. This trade also promises to become one
of great extent, although the quality of the greater part
ofthe salt meatyet imported is indifferent, and the mode
of preparing it is bad. If, however, the Americans and
others can improve the quality of their meat as much
as they have improved the quality of theircheese, some
of which is now equal to excellent Cheshire, the de-
mand for it will be immense. Even now it is bought
up eagerly, not because it is very good, but because it
ismuch better than none at all. Owing to this com-
petition,hasfelled i

GLASGOW.—The magnificent works which for
three or four months past have been going on at that
part of the Monkland Canal which unites the Forth
and Clyde with the Monkland, are on the eve of com-
pletion. They have totally changed the appearance of
that quarter, which will not easity be recognised by
' those who have not seen it for some time. From
Port Dundas, eastward to St. Rollox bridge, there has
been constructed on either side a substantial wall and
breastwork, where the largest vessels that enter the
canal may load or disembark. On the south side this
wall is almost continuous along the whole length of
the line, affording excellent harbourage at almost
every point : the north line has more frequent inter-
ruptions, that side requiring fewer facilities for the
landing of vessels ; but wherever a break occurs, the
vacant space is occupied with a firm and enduring em-
bankment of earth. The canal has been greatly widened,
and spacious docks for float timber, &c., have been con-
structed along the line. The whole works do the
utmost credit to the enterprise of the canal proprietors
and the skill of the engineer. The brief period they
have occupied is not more surprising than is, we un-
derstand, the economy with which they have been
effected. The works were so far advanced at the
close of the week, that it was thought probable
the water would be let into the canal last night.
We observe that the Garnkirk and Glasgow Railway
Company have commenced their preparations for
laying down a continuation of their line westward
from the present terminus to the neighbourhood of
Port Dundas, running nearly collaterally with the
canal.—Scottish Guardian.
FATAL ACCIDENT.—WhiIe a number (4 workmen
in the employment of Mr. Croaker, the builder,
were pulling down some old houses in Jacob-street,
Dockhead, on Saturday evening, a stack of chim-
neys against which they were forcing a beam of wood
about fifteen feet long, broke_ through the middle, and
the weight falling upon the beam forced it back upon
the workmen, bruising all,
and William
Cox, aged thirty, upon the hest:Cilkinagndoll%
ck with
great violence, laying his skull open, and breaking
his spine. The unfortunate man was immediately
conveyed to Guy's Hospital, where, after lingering
some time, he expired. Mr. Payne, the City Coroner,
held an inquest upon the body yesterday evening, and
after a full investigation, the Jury returned a verdict
of " Accidental Death."
DREADFULfew wools
vsi neDe aEATIL—It will be recollected, that a
girl was apprehended at Cardiff
going on board one of the Bristol packets in sailor's
attire, on which occasion she stated that she was going
to America to see her brother. We lament to state

that the unfortunate girl, whose name was Ani;
Rees, and who was about 21 years of age, was burnt
to death at Merthyr, on 11 ednesday last. It appears
that the poor girl, who is of weak intellects, had come
to -Merthyr in search of employment, and, not having
money to par for her lodgings, she went to rest in
one of the night lodging-houses, in which there is
generally a fire, and having fallen asleep her clothes
ignited and were entirely burnt from her person
before her cries brought any person to her assistance.
Surgical aid was immediately called in and she was
removed to the police-station, where every attention
was paid her, but after lingering in the greatest agony
for twenty hours, she expired.—Welsh Paper.
