FOREIGN

AND COLONIAL

MISCELLANY

Extract of a letter from Jamaica :—" The greatest exertions
are making here to place the Apostles Battery, Fort Augusta,
and all the other forts round the island, in a complete state
of defence, and in adapting their parapets to the traversing
platforms on which the guns have been lately mounted. A
steamer has been placed at the disposal of the island engineer
(whose zeal and exertions nothing can exceed), to enable him
more effectively personally to superintend these preparations.
Chain, shell, shot, carcasses, and Congreve rockets, have
been in large quantities conveyed to all the works, and there
is no doubt but that an enemy approaching the coast of
Jamaica will be warmly received. A reinforcement of two
companies of artillery are daily expected.

NAPOLEON'S REMAINS.—A letter from one of the officers
of the Astrolabe, written on September the 7th, while that
ship was still at St. Helena, says :—" An Englishbrig of war
has bean sent here, witn commissioners, to be present at the
exhumation of the remains of the emperor. All the prepa-
rations for delivering them up to the French are ready. We
saw near the tomb a tent, under which all the apparatus for
raising them was placed. It is hoped that the body may be
withdrawn without removing the immense block of granite
which covers the grave, as the English wish to preserve the
tomb as it is. They hope that the deserted sepulchre may
still attract, if not numerous pilgrims, at least some persons
desirous of viewing the spot where lay the man of much uni-
versal fame. I saw the funeral car which, is to convey the
body from the tomb to James-town. It is oblong, and co-
vered with a dome, supported on four columns, surmounted
by a funereal plume. It is entirely covered with black cloth,
ornamented with drapery in crape. It will be drawn by four
horses, dressed in funereal housings."
NEW ZEALAND.—The following is a copy of a letter from
Dr. Dorset, dated Port Nicholson, April 29, 1840 :—" I
have nothing to tell you in the way of news. We have now
settled down into a regular community, and I suspect my
adventures are all over. Enclosed I send you the first
[second, the first was published here] number of the New
Zealand newspaper, in which you will see better than I can
tell you our flourishing state and prospects. Every one is
sanguine in the extreme, The eighth part, No. 20, town
acre only, held by a Mr. Shan, has been sold for one hun-
dred pounds : such is the confidence people have in the place
succeeding. Sir George Sinclair's son, a few days after his
arrival, sold five sections for thirteen hundred guineas, and
he is now heartily sorry for the sale, the buyer of them de-
claring they are worth £lO,OOO, as they are mostly low num-
bers. Sections below No. 10 are not to be- bought for one
thousand pounds. The Tory sails to-morrow for Sydney at
break of day."
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1840-11-27

Foreign Flour, duty paid, continued to meet a fair inquiry,
and this, as well as approved marks of Irish and home ma-
nufacture, fully supported late prices.
Being still without arrivals of malting Barley, we have no
change to note in the value of that description ; but grinding
samples of Irish and foreign, upon a very languid sale, were
the turn cheaper.
Malt, Beans, and Pease remained unyaried. Oats and
Oatmeal, attended with a moderate demand, and very little
of each having arrived since Tuesday, the former was ld.
per 451 b s., and the latter 3d. to 6d. per 2401b5. dearer.

Important to those who use Steel Pens.
TARLING'S METALLIC INK,
Warranted to keep good in any climate.
THIS invaluble preparation needs only a single trial to in-
sure its universal adoption by those who use STEEL
PENS, as it will completely obviate all objections to that
useful invention. It flows perfectly free from the steel or
quill pen, the moment it is applied to paper, even of the most
inferior description, thus materially expediting the process,
as well as much increasing the pleasure of all writers. It is
beautifully black, and indelible.

PARISIAN BITUMEN PAVING COMPANY.

THE opinion of several eminent Engineers having been
taken as to the merits of the Bitumen of this Company,
the Directors feel justified in stating that it is capable of
resisting the effects of heat, wet, and frost, and is fully equal,
if not superior, to any of the Asphaltes now in use, while its
price, the carriage from London included, is considerably
less.

The Directors, before mentioning the various uses to which
Bitumen is applicable, have great pleasure in calling the
attention of parties interested in the subject, to a most mas-
terly exposition of the qualities of this celebrated Mastic,
delivered at the Architectural Society, Lincoln's Inn Fields,
by Mr. Tite, who brought to the task not only a compre-
hensive knowledge of what had been done, but a mind deeply
ittbued with the conviction that much yet remained to do
towards developing all the resources of which such a material
was capable.

The Directors are well aware that the qualities of their
Bitumen, to be appreciated, must be known, and feeling
that the public will soon be freed from those prejudices
against its use which carelessness of application has alone
generated, beg to say, that they have ready prepared a large
quantity of Bitumen of a proper consistency applicable to the
following purposes, viz. :
To the Covering of Viaducts, or Arches of Railways, Bridges,
Catacombs, Wine Vaults, Cellars, &c.
To the Paving of Pathways, Court Yards, Garden Walks,
Stables, Coach houses, Barns, Tun Rooms, Malt Houses,
Granaries, Warehouses, Wharfs, Esplanades, Cause-
ways, &c.
To be delivered in Liverpool or Manchester, at £3 per Ton,
cash price ; or
The Directors will execute any of the above Works, in Li-
verpool, Manchester, or the Neighbourhood, at ss. 6d. the
square yard each, inclusive of all expenses.
Directions for Use will be forwarded with any quantity.
And the Directors will guarantee the Durability of Works
executed by the Company.
J. DICKINSON, Secretary and Superintendent.

Varnish, and Lamp Black, in any quantities, at reasonable

LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, Nov. 26
. .

The appearance of frost has a little affected the market, and we
think sto 2s per cwt. advance in price of the finer descriptions of
Butter is to be obtained. Pickled Butter is better,—the decline
in the Brazillian markets noted in one of our late reports being
local, (confined only to Maranham)—holders have become more
confident, and demand 94s per cwt. for seconds. Beef, Pork, and
Bacon. continue to wear a downward aspect.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, NOVEMBER 24.
(From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott 6r Son.)
Since Tuesday last, the arrivals of Oats and Oatmeal from
Ireland have been to a fair extent, but from the foreign ports and
coastways, the imports of Grain and Flour have been quite trivial,
and during the past week there has been a pretty fair demand for
Wheat and Flour at fully our last quotations. For Oats and Oat-
meal at a small advance, and for all other articles in the corn trade
to a very moderate extent, with little or no variation in prices.
The weather has been rather more favourable during the last
four or five days for the agricultural operations, but we fear little
progress has been made in Wheat sowing, the land being still very
wet.
The duty on Wheat from foreign ports has increased since
Friday Is per quarter, the duty being now 245 8d per quarter- and
141 10d per barrel on Flour; on Oats also it has increased Is 6d,
being now 13s gd per quarter ;on other Grain no change. Super-
fine sweet United States' Flour continues to find sales in bond, for
export, at 24s to 24s 6d per barrel; Grain in bond quite nominal.
At this day's market sales of every article in the corn trade were
effected to a very moderate extent, at about the prices of this day
week;—excepting Oats and Oatmeal, which were a little higher;
the former Id per 43 lbs, the latter 6d per 240 lbs.

RENOVATION OP THE ATMOSPHERE PROM

vitazivaia SOURCES

The total superricies of the globe is usually estimated a
about 200,000,000 British square miles, and the natural di
vision of this surface is into earth and water ; about seven
tenths of the whole being occupied by the ocean, and the re
maining three-tenths consisting of land ;
Or 140,000,000 square miles of water.
60,000,000 ditto, of land.

Total 200,000,000

From chemical analysis, sea-water is found to be composed
of the following ingredients :—Sea-water may be regarded as
one of the saline mineral waters. Its taste is disagreeably
bitter and saline, and its fixed constituents amount to a little
more than three per cent. Its specific gravity varies from
1.0269 to 1.0285; and it freezes at about 28.5 deg. F. Ac-

cording to the analysis of Dr.
from the Frith of Forth contain
Water 9 696.91
Common salt 220.01
Sulph. soda
Mur. magnesia 42.08
Mur. lime
If we consider that every eight pints in nine are composed o
oxygen, in water, and only one of hydrogen, we shall be
struck with the enormous quantity of that fluid in our globe,
for as stated above 140,000,000 of square miles, is the esti-
mated quantity of superficies of water, and every 9 lbs. by
weight contain 8 lbs. of oxygen.
Again, if we take into consideration the atmospheric air,
we shall find it also contains a large quantity of oxygen,
amounting to 21 pints in every 100. The other ingredients
being nitrogen about 79, and a slight proportion of carbonic
acid—about 0.049. The atmosphere is supposed to extend to
an altitude of about 40 miles. Its pressure is calculated at
about 15 lbs. upon every square inch of surface—
If the surface of a man's body be computed at 14 feet square,
the weight which he sustains will be upwards of 13 tons.
14 sq. ft. >4 144 in. =-- 1 sq. ft. >C 15 lbs. = 13 tons 10 cwt.
Water is taken as the standard for computing the specific
gravity of solids. One cubic inch, at 62 degs. F and 30 in.
bar., weighs 252.458 grs. Atmospheric air is generally used
as the standard for gases. 100 cubic inches, at 60 degs. F,
bar. 30, weigh 31.0117 grains, being 815 times lighter than
water.

All those instances, prove that water and carbon are the
principal constituents of vegetables.
I am convinced when a thorough investigation of the sub-
ject I have undertaken to prove in part, shall take place,
that we shall no longer wonder how the large quantities of
carbon, thrown into the atmosphere, become disposed of,
but almost be surprised that these facts have not led others
to the same conclusions as here advanced.
Another source of renovation of the air and waters of the
ocean, arises from the enormous quantities of carbon conti-
nually deposited in the form of carbonate of lime by the
corals in warm seas ; but as my present object is to prove
that the deterioration of the air by animal existence is essen-
tial to the healthy growth of vegetables, I shall not take into
consideration the quantities of carbon which become fixed by
animals themselves S. H. S.

insolvency of the South remains a matter of so much uncer-

will have a bad effect on the affairs of the United States Bank,
as Mr. Jaudon has thereby been delayed at least 14 days, at
a time when the affairs of the Bank are fast reaching a crisis.
He cannot now expect to be in London before December Ist,
and as the Bank is to resume in January, but two weeks re-
mains for negociations in a difficult market.
State Stocks in this market have been heavy at a down-
ward tendency since the arrival of the Acadia. A loan was
made by the State of New York, on the 7th instant, for the
Oneida River Improvement, to the amount of 25,000 dollars
five per cent. stock, redeemable in 1860, at 91 for each 100
dollars. The last loan previously made by the state, was
1,500,000 five per cent. 'stock, redeemable in 1858, at 91.

STATE OF TRADE

There is apparently an increasing amount of business doing
as the excitement attendant on the elections die away. There
are very many dealers here from the west, and along the line
of the canals, taking advantage of the unusually fine weather,
to complete their stock of goods, and get their produce to
market before the setting in of winter. The conveyances on
the North River are, consequently, in full activity, and our
city dealers seem to have returned to business with more
confidence in the future, from the result of the elections.
