We are informed, upon authority which we cannot
question, that the story of the Bishop of CuEsTaa's
having interfered, directly or indirectly, with the
amusements of a brother Prelate, is utterly destitute of
truth.

It is with regret we announce the death of JOSEPH
PLANTA, Esq. principal Librarian of the British Mu-
seum, which melancholy event took place at that
Establishment yesterday morning, at ten minutes
before ten. Mr. PLANTA was in the 84th year of his age.
This amiable man has :left behind him few com-
peers, he was well known to the writer, who, in all
sincerity of heart, regrets his removal from a situatinn
which he has so long and so amiably filled, although
he left the world in that state which bas ever been the
desire of all good men, frill of days, and full of honour.
able report. It must afford his survivors consolation
to understand, that this excellent man has not suffered
from painful illness, but Nature, apparently worn out,

Accounts from the Red Sea, received at Bombay,
state, that a serious disturbance has lately taken place

British ships of war were before the town, and, there-
fore, ready to render every protection to the Residency.
It was, however, thought probable that the Surgeon
would be obliged to quit Mocha altogether, as the
Turks continued to breathe vengeance against him, and,
it is even said, had dug a grave, and sworn to the Koran
they would bury him is it.

Brougham, of Brougham Hall, was found dead upon

been sent on horseback with a message to the latter place,
and not returning in the time expected, a messenger
was dispatched in search of him, and the unfortunate
man was found lying upon the road quite dead. It is
supposed, shat from the slippery state of the road the
horse had stumbled or fallen, and thrown him A

Suoanem-lithoogh towards the end of last week, particularly on
Friday 'Benton, some activity was displayed in the tiger Market,

shade higher. As the stock is small the holders are anticipating
high prices.
Correa.—Business In Coffee is rather on the increase; but the
prices bave not improved. The holders appear but little disposed
to part with their stock, under the impression that an advance will
take place at tha commencement of the present year. The
import of Coffee is leas at present by about 1,000 hhda. of British
Plantation, and by about 2,400 bags of Foreign, than up to this pe-

The business in Pepper is not extensive, and prices remain without
any material alteration.

The commercial advice' received from Hamborgh, representing
that colonial and other produce was rather higher at the date of the
letter than previously. Exports are making more freely to that port
as well as to Holland.

country 751. The number which had arrived out this year was,
754. But a very small quantity of the Tallow brought down
remained behind. The stock of Tallow in this country at present
is between 50,000 and 60,000 casks. The price remains heavy, and
a further decline is expected.
In Setremax there is no alteration, prices being steady.
To lion the same observation will apply.
