Extract from a letter received in Glasgow from New
York, via Liverpool :
0 New Yam, Ammer 16.—Priday eight cases of yellow fever
were reported to the Board of Health. Saturday only one rage
was reported, Monday one, Tuesday five Wednesday two, and
yesterday (Thursday) two—all these have been traced to Lumber-
street, the infected district; and strong precautions are now taken
to have it sufficiently fenced up and all its inhabitants removed.'
However successful the efforts to stop its progress may be, it has
given a blow to our trade for this year, from which we shall not
recover until the spring. The reports in the country are so ex-
travagant, that the greater part of the southern merchants would
not come into the city, but have gone to Philadelphia, Boston, Etc:*

Calcatta Papers to the 6th of March have arrived.
According v. advises from Lucknow, a letter had
been received there from Major FAlTHrues camp,
stating that the fortified village of Buragong. late in
the pos-ession of QUASIM ALES KHAN had been taken
by the English troops, alter a short conflict, attended
with some loss. It is added, that the proprietor of
the village, rendered desperate by the oppression
heaped on him by AGA Masa, and the appearance of
a British force, had burnt no less than six or seven
towns previous tohis being attacked. Lady HASTINGS
had suffered from severe indisposition, but was re
covered. The Governor• General was at Barrackpore.

Sir WILLIAM Annus is now making a two months'
tour on the Continent, for the purpose of visiting the
various foreign Ophthalmic Schools,;and establishing
a correspondence with them for advancing the know-
ledge of Diseases of the Eye. The Schools of Ger-
many are said to be superior to those of any other
country ; and there is reason to hope the happiest
results from the proposed interchange of information
apon the subject of that delicate organ.
Miss STRPRENS, it is now said, is expected to be
engaged at Drury-lane Theatre at twenty:five pounds
per week. Mr. LIsToN, it is said, has. been offered
the same sum.
The Marchioness Dowager of HERTFORD is sup-
posed to be the richest Widow in the kingdom. Her
Ladyship has Four Hundred Thousand Pounds in
money, and One Hundred Thousand in land.
Sunday last the banns of marriage or one solitary
couple only were published in Maidstone Church,
a circumstance quite novel at this season of the year,
having often before been as many as twenty or even
thirty couple asked there on a Sunday. Such are
the dreadful consequences resulting from the New
Marriage Act—an Act which has struck more terror
into the hearts of his MAsztry's loving subjects than
any Bill passed by Parliament for many years.
The great difficulty of the New Marriage Act was
very materially felt, a few days sirce, by a Gentle-
man who went from Hastings to Kingsee, in Devon-
shire, for a certificate of his baptism, and from thence
to Ilminster, in Somersetshire, for a certificate of the
Ladyc baptism, to whom he was going to be married.
New difficulties still occurred, and a license was re-
fused at Ilminster : he was referred to Chichester,
when the Registrar could not grant a license for
Hastings ; from thence he went to Lewes, where it
was at last obtained. He had travelled nearly sex
hundred mike to accomplish it 1
WEST LONDON THEATRR—The performances at
