DISCOVERY OF SEVEN STATUES ON

THE MANOR SHORE.

The workmen employed by the Yorkshire
Philosophical Society, haVe this week brought
to light some of the most valuable relics of an-
tiquity found since the ground was excavated.
In forming a road in the pleasure grounds, on
the scite of the south aisle of the church, they
came in contact with the foundation of a wall of
immense magnitude. It was no less than ten
feet thick, and was wholly composed of the
moulded and carved stones, that had at one time
formed part of the Abbey. This induced them
t o take it up, when it showed clearly that it had
been built out of the ruins of the Abbey after
its demolition. The stones were then carefully
removed; they extended to the depth of six feet,
and were principally the tracery of the windows,
in nearly as perfect a state as if they were just
from the hands of the workmen. Two or three
of the magnificent windows of the Abbey may
thus be completely restored. Under this solid
mass of masonry, which was firmly cemented to-
gether, were found seven large statues, each five
feet nine inches high, They are of a remarkably
strong and robust appearance, and are clad in
antique drapery. The inner vest of one of
them was richly coloured with purple, on
g which were sprigs of gold. The outer vest
appeared to have been covered with gold,
and the face was of a flesh colour. The garment
of another figure was of crimson and gold. All
the figures have been splendidly coloured and
gilt, but not much of it is now discernable, being
removed by the damp and the cement in which
they were imbedded. One of the figures un-
doubtedly represents Moses; he bears in one
hand the tables of stone, and in the other the
brazen serpent. The beard of Moses has been
richly gilt. Two of the other statues bear books
in their hands ; one of them is supposed to re-
present St. John. Two other figures are with-
out the heads, which have been searched for, but
have not been found. The drapery of one of
these figures is remarkably freely and finely cut.
They are all barefoot, and five of them have been
got out in a very perfect state. They will be a
very valuable acquisition to the extensive mu-
seums of the Society. The most probable sup-
position is, that they have formed the screen be-
tween
the nave and the choir, as they have been
too richly painted and gilt to have been placed
in any exterior situation. We understand that
the workmen have been discharged this week, as
the funds of the Society will not warrant any
further expenditure by the Committee, unless
further assistance be obtained from the public.
We regret sincerely that this is the case, as in
all probability many interesting and valuable re-
lics must thus remain buried in the earth.—
York Chronicle.

A wild swan, measuring seven feet seven inches
from the tip of one wing to that of the other, and five
feet in length from its bill to its tail, and weighing seven-
teen pounds, was shot by the gardener of James Lo.h,
Esq., in a field near Jesmond-grove, on Saturday.— Tyne
Mercury.

SUGAR.—The demand for Muscovades has been
general, and.on an extensive scale; the request has
been chiefly directed to good and fine Sugars, which
ure so scarce that the holders have obtained an ad-
vance of Is. per cwt. The low descriptions are
more inquired after, and are now Saleable, which
was not the case two weeks ago, but there has been
no advance obtained on the ord. brown. At the
close of the market the estimated sales this week
are 3,000 hhds. and tres.; to-day the purchases are
not extensive, on account of the frost stopping the
inland trade. In the Refined Market the transac-
tions have been so extensive that goods are becom-
ing scarce, and the prices obtained are a shade
higher, but no marked advance can be stated. Mo-
lasses are without alteration.

FOREIGN SUGARS.—In Foreign Sugars no trans-
actions are reported.
EAST INDIA SUGARS.—In consequence of the
scarcity of coloury West India Sugars, Bengals,.
mid. and good qualities, have been in great re,
quest. At public sale on Tuesday, 536 bags sold
with great briskness—white good 365. a 38s. 6d.;
middling 325. bd. a 355. A parcel of Siam Sugar
was offered, but met with no buyers. By public
sale this forenoon 1,584 bags Bengal Sugar,_ white
good 38s. a 3Ss. 6d. ; middling 345. 6d. a 335. .6d.
The whole sold with briskness at very high prices.
WEST INDIA MOLASSES.--There are no purchases
of any extent to report ; the very ord. sell at 228.,
the good 245. 6d. a 255.
COFFEE.--The only parcel of Coffee of any con-
sideration brought forward early in this week was
600 bags very good ord. Ceylon, which sold with
great briskness at 365., which may be stated to be
2s. per cwt. higher, and such was the avidity with
which the whole was taken, that three times the
extent might easily have been sold at the same
rate. The remainder of the Coffee consisted of
small parcels of Jamaica, Dominica, Demerara, and
Berbice, which all sold, and with briskness, at prices
ls. a 3s. higher. There were no public sales this
forenoon. By private contract, some good ordinary
St. Domingo has been bought at 375. and 375. 6d.;
but the holders now ask 395.

RUMPRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.--A Government
contract for Rum is immediately expected in the
Market. There are no purchases of spirits to any
extent, the prices remain nearly nominal.
HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLOW.—The demand for
Tallow has been brisk and extensive early in the
week, but we think the request was not so general
during yesterday and this forenoon, the prices are in
consequence a shade lower. There is little variation
in Hemp or Flax. The letters from St. Petersburgh
are dated 3d inst. Exchange 11d: 1-32.

COTTON.—The Cotton Market continues dull.
The sales for the week, ending last night inclusive,
are limited, they are 200 Surats, at 31d. a 4d.; 300
ditto, by public sale, at 3id. a 4id.; 600 Pernams,
at ?id.; 90 Bovveds at W.; and 150 Carthagena,
by public sale, at 40. a 4id.
INDIGo.—The East India House sale of 5,740
chests Indigo commenced on Tuesday last; it has
gone off irregularly, brisk and dull alternate days ;
the fine at last sale prices, the other descriptions
chiefly at 3d. and 4d advance on the last sale. At
the close of this day 3,014 chests have passed the
sale, and the prices of the first day have been fully
supported, say from last sale's prices to 4d. advance,
and in some instances 6d.; whilst Madras sold with-
out spirit at from last sale's prices to 6d. discount,
and in some instances 9d. The quantity bought in
by the proprietors is about 200 Bengal, 100 Madras.
TOBACCO.—There has been a general and exten-
sive demand for Tobacco; the quantity of Strips
which has changed hands is about 600 hhds., chiefly
at 6d. and 6d.; about 100 Mids.. leafy Tobacco
have also been sold. •

FRUIT.—The demand had rather improved, but
the present hard weather has rather checked it, in
consequence of the conveyance by the canals having
been stopped. A large parcel of new red Smyrna
Raisins has been taken off for shipping at 425., and
some as low as 415.; and there are more orders still
remaining on hand, but the holders now Nvill not
sell under 435. A parcel of fine new Zante Currants
has been taken off by the trade at 875.; in other
sorts there is no alteration.—By public sale this
forenoon, 69 butts old Currants sold at 84s. a 88s.
