There is no country in which people travel
less on foot than in England, yet no modern nation has
done so much to secure the 'comfort and convenience of
foot passengers.

Biggar Martinmas fair was held on Thursday.
A number of south country buyers attended, and the
market was well stocked with qucys and cows in calf
Fat beasts were in good request, but few of this sort could
be had. Fair prices were in most instances obtained.
Milk cows, newly calved, ran as high as 101., and those
with calf from 61: to Si. No sheep or lambs were sbewn.
The few horses produced sold well, and brought in general
from 201. to 301., aed, in a few instances, 35/. On the
whole, considering the low state of markets in general,
and the season of the year, a great deal of business was
done, and dealers went away in good spirits.— Glasgow
Chronicle.

In the middle of October a young woman
At-ho was washing linen in the Evgnes, at Nyons, depart-
ment of the Drome, fell into the river and was carried
down the current. A veteran, 70 years of age, who had
made all the campaigns of the Revolution, immediately
plunged in, and succeeded in pushing her upon the hank.
no strength of the old man being exhausted by the effort,
lsse sunk. At the cries of the spectators another veteran
hastened to the succour of his co'nrade, and brought him
to land, but he was a corpse.— Galignani's Messenger.
LILLYWHITE., our celebrated bowler, fre-
fluently after matches in Lorn's Ground earned several
pounds. As soon as a game was finished, several gentle-
men were in the habit of going up, and asking him to
bowl to them. One would place half-a crown on the
stumps for an innings ; another would offer ss. and even
10s. The highest bidder of course obtained precedence ;
and seldom had LILLYWHITE to bowl more than 10 balls,
unless the batsman was a very good player,—before the
stumps were torn up. One person saw LILLYWHITE get
as much in this way as 21. in less than an hour, so anxious
were the nobs to have "a touch of his bowling."—Zlrigl►-

The inhabitants of Brighton, less " liberal"
than their neighbours of Lewes, who resolved,--at least
signed a resolution,—that now the " Relief"_ Bill had
passed, the memory of Popish distinctions should also pass
away from the land, celebrated here on Thursday last, with
the usual warmth, the anniversary of" Gunpowder Plot."
An immense concourse of persons assembled in the even-
ing as usual on the Steine, to the largest enclosure of
which the fire-works were chiefly confined. As many as
six lighted tar-barrels were rolled down North-street from
the Church-•hill to the Steine, by an organized party of
about 30, composed apparently of bricklayers' labourers,
determined to keep up the " charter." They were dis-
tinguished from the rest by having their faces painted, and
wearing red caps. The High Constable, very commend-
ably, did not interfere with them. After the above dis.
guised party bad exhausted their tar-barrels, they assem-
bled in a body in front of the High Constable's house, and
sang after their fashion the Mitional Anthem ; they then
gave three huzzaa, and returned peaceably to their homes.
The evening passed without any accilent.—Brighton
Gazette.

Yesterday morning, while two young men
were walking by the side of the river, between Tradeston
and Govan, they observed a wheel-barrow, with two
small herring firkins, standing in the neighbourhood of
Mr. TODD'S weaving factory. This at first did not make
any particular impression on their minds; but they had
not proceeded above 200 yards farther, till they noticed,
lying close to the brink of the water, a pair of scales,
with some small weights. These they lifted; but continued
to walk on, and a little farther west, they found a checked
woollen apron, which bore evident marks of having been
violently torn from the person of the individual who had
been lately wearing it, a leather belt, and a small linen
purse. They became justly alarmed, lifted the different
articles, placed them in the barrow, and returned to the
GOrbals Police Office, where they reported the ease. A
party was immediately despatched in the direction, but
were not long in falling in with some individuals who
were in search of the person who was the owner of the
articles. They stated that he was in the habit of regu-
larly hawking herrings through Govan, Renfrew, and
neighbourhood; but that on his return home, a short
time ago, he had been robbed of 21. It is supposed, from
the quantity of herrings lie took with hint on Saturday,
he would be possessed of nearly the same sum of money,
and that he had been attacked by the same ruffians, who,
after having overcome him, had thrown him into the
river. Ile resided in Rutherglen Loan, Gorbals. He is
described to have been a stout man, about 32 years of age,
and not given to drink. So soon as the Procurator Fis-
cal, Mr. Siumow, heard of the case, he repaired to the
Gorbals Police Office, where he had a conference with the
poor man's disconsolate wife and other two individuals.
Enquiry has been set nn foot ; and it is to be hoped seine
light will soon be thrown on this mysterious atrair. It is
understood that two individuals, whose names are known,
had more than once threatened the life of the herring.
