Not less than £150,000 worth of Scotch salmon is sold an-
nually in London, apart from what is consumed at home. Of
the exact value of the myriads of oysters which are annually
gobbled, or served up as sauce to sister and brother tenants of

order of the commissioners."
THE PEEL B•NQUET.—We understand that the Right Hon.
Baronet will be accompanied by one of his brothers or some
other relative. Sir Robert will, in all likelihood, arrive on the
Monday previous to the Festival, and intends to proceed direct
to Blvthswood House, which will he his temporary residence
during his necessarily short visit to Scotland. The tradesmen
engaged in construct►ng the Banquet Hall for the dinner to
Sir Robert Peel are getting on pretty well, the whole of the
side walls and part of the ratters being already up. Every part
will be finished in a most substantial manner—and we have no
doubt it will, when completed, exceed the expectation of the
most sanguine, for neatness and tasteful elegance.—Glasgow

MYSTERIOUS A FFA IR.—A family consisting of four individu-
als, a father. two daughters, and a mother, went to bed, in a
room in the Wallace Fens, Dundee, on Monday night. On
Wednesday, one of the daughters awoke, but could not awake
the other members of the fatuity. She immediately procured a
light, when shocking to relate, she found her lather and sister
dead, and her mother dying. The mother is since dead. The
daughter who awoke onWednesday morning from her protracted
sleep of thirty-two hours, becoming again lethargic on Wednes-
day night, was removed to the Infirmary, where the proper
means for her recovery were promptly and successfully applied,
and we understand that she is now almost well, The circum-
stances attending this mysterious affair are uudergoing investi-
gation by the proper authorities.—Wasgow Courier,
THE MISSING WHALERS.—The condition of the two ves-
sels belonging to Dundee, the Advice and the Thomas, as re-
gards provisions, has naturally enough been the subject of
anxious inquiry. Repotts, too, have gone abroad to the effect
that the companies to which they belting had stinted them,,Or,
at least, had not prtivided for such an emergency as has occur-
red. 'On inquiry we find that the Thomas was provisioned at
full allowance for nine months and a half front the date of her
the beginning of April, and the Advice fur twelve months
from the same date. Bight mouths have now elapsed, so that
the condition of the Thotnas, as regards provisions, is alarming,
unless the crew at an early period had been placed On Short al-
lowance. It is supposed that such an arrangement would be
alopted in September when the prospect appeared of detention
in the ice. If so, the provisions may hold out -sill May. The
Advice. having originally twelve months! provisions, will be in
better Circutnstances.---Dundee Advertiser.. •
CitaosioNtenres.--The officers of the surVeying ships, Ad-
venture and Beagle, have made some very interesting observe
thins on the effects produced upon chronometers by different
circumstances. It has. been ascertained that temperature is the
chief, if not the only cause of Marked changes of rate, and -that
the ordinary. motions of a ship, such as pitching and rolling
moderately, do nut affect tolerably good chronometers, which
are fixed in one place, and are defended from vibration and
concussion. It often happens that the air. in.port or near the
land, is at a temperature very different frotn that of the open
sea in the vicinity, fr',m which arises the difference sometitnes
found between harbour and sea rates. A cushion, wool, hair,
or any such substance, is preferable to a solid bed ; but the
chronometers never go better than when the boxes are bedded
in saw-dust, and the watches move freely in welt oiled jimhals.
Suspending them in cots not only alters their rate, but makes
them go less regularly, and, when fixed to a solid substance, . .

they feel the vibrations caused by people running on the decks,
b♦ shocks, or by chain cables running out. Magnetkui, al-
though supposed by so►ne persons to. affect the rate of going of
chronometers. is yet very difficult to detect.—Athenaum.

ANNUAL VAl,ce OF AGnIctli.TuRAL PRODUCE.—We have
. already seen that the yearly.yalue of the whole., agricultural pro-
"duce of England &Wales inav'be estimated about£l32,ooo,ooo,
j and that of Scotland at about £23.000,000, making a gross sum
of £155,000,000. Now, dedueting from this amount £12,000,000
for the value of the seed, and the sums required to keep up• the
stock of horses, tic., we have the sum of £143,000,000, as refire-
' sewing the entire value of the various articles of agricultural
produce annually consumed by man. At present (183(i) the
population of.Preat Britain may be taken et nearly 18,000,(0),
which, consequently, gives (14A-18ths) XS, very nearly, for the
average annual consumption of each individual; and it seems
to be the concurrent opinion of those best entitled to decide as
to such subjects, that this average is not very wide of the mark
We have estimated the value of the entire annual produce of the
land of Ireland at £55,500,000; but we have since been assured
by gentlemen intimately acquainted with thd:Stitte of that
country, and on whose judgement we are disposed place much
reliance, that this estimate is above the mark, and that the an-
neal value of the agricultural produce of Ireland does not ex-
ceed £15,000,000. Now, if we deduct from this L 6,000,000 :for
the value of seed, and of the sums required to replace horses,
&c., and £3,500.(X)0 for the values remitted in the shape of rent,
&c., to absentee proprietors, we have £35,500.000 to be distri-
buted among the resident population ; which as the latter. may

CounAGE6Os CONDUCT OF A MAGISTRATE,--On Monday
morning, a large concourse of people assembled in a field at
Mellor, in White Hamlet, where a pitched battle was appointed
to come off, but the circumstances coining to the knowledge of
mr. H. Medfield, a Magistrate, :he party were dispersed. The
!nob, about 500 in number, then adjourned to hawk-green,
near maple,. when' Mr. R. Simpson, of Melton lodge, one of
our Magistrates, was sent for. This gentleman quickly mounted
his nag, rode amongst and dispersed them. The conibatants not
having time to dress, took different directions, and Mr. Simpson
followed one of them, AbrahaM Barber, over hedge and. ditch,
for nearly a mile, when the man falling, he immediately closed
on him and put a handcuff on one wrist. As sir. Simpson was
conducting his prisoner, he was met by a mob of ZA) men,
armed with bludgeons, who demanded that he should imme-
diately given!) Barber, or they would force him, at the same
time using the most horrid oaths and threats towards him. Mr.
• •
Simpson told them he wain Magistrate, and dared them to at-
tempt to use violence to him; on which one man offered to strike
him with his•bledgeon. Simpson forced his prisoner through
tlpin, and took him into Mr. Eccles's house, where the mob
increased and tin eatcued to pull down the place. The man
was pUt into the stable, and Mr. Eccles went out to remonstrate
with the fellows, but was received with blows and imprecations.
'So violent (lid the mob becoMe, that the inhabitants were obliged
to use fire-arms in their own defence,. A party of constables
was *cured, and Barber, an Irishman named Murray, and
Hellen, the ringleaders, were apprehended and taken ander a
guard to Stockport, where they were examined-and committed •
to prison for re-examination.—fftoekport Advertiser.

Buell na La FLANNEL MAF:KET, oxiia a., Dec. 2C.—Thea
market to-day has been extremely du!! and thinly attended;
and very little business of any kind has been done. From.
Christmas day to the new market (which is always the first
Monday after the sixth d - of January) business is almost at a
stand here. For wool higher prices have been generally asked.
to-day, and parbaps some six or ten shillings more per pack
have been given for skin wool.
A NEW VELnIGPEDE —We learn from the Philadelphia Cen-
iinel, that one muddy day at the beginning of November, a huge
portly gentleman, having got into a,New York omnibus, the
flooring suddenly gave way beneath him, and with his head and
shoulderl in the omnibus, and his legs and feet in the mud, he
was constrained to run a considerable distance before the buss
could be pulled up. He now goes by the name of the "The
New Telucipede."
A recent letter from Grenada states, that several hundreds of
captured Africans have lately been imported into that island
who have been apprenticed out for three years, some in town-,
but inost,of them in the country. It is supposed they have been
brought from the American settienients on the Western Coast
of Africa. We could wish to know, by. whom these Negroes
were captured, and with what view ? And whether such im-
portation is not equivalent to the slave trade, although under
another name.

RecnumeG.--We understand that orders have been issued
by the commander-in-chief to the several reeiments of the line,
that on all future occasions recruits will-be admitted of the sta-
ture of five feet six inches, being a diminution of one inch from
the present standard. With regard to the household infantry,
the royeil artillery, and the cavalry, the standard Of height is to
remain unchanged—viz., five feet eight inches for the two for-
mer. and six feet for the latter.
MINERAL 'fa tLow.—Specirheni of this substance were lately,
found in a bog on the herders of Loch Fyne. This curious mi-
neral was first observed hy somepeasants on the coast of Fin-
land in 17W; afterwards it was found in one of the Swedish
lakes. A similar substance was found at Strasburg by Dr. Her-
man, and in this ciuutry he Professor Jameson. It has the
colour, end feel, and taste of tallow, but Without smell. It is as
volatile and combustible as any of the volatile oils or naphtha.
On Thursday night, a ball was given at the Lowther Rooms.
in King William-sfreet Strand, by a party of ladies and
gentiemen of the Jewish persuasion. Several ladies proceeded
to the rooms in the hackney-coach No. let'-1, taking with them,
in a brown paper pat eel, diamonds and other jewellery of the
value of near 1:2,0W. In their hurry, the whole of the party
forgot the parcel until nearly half an hour afterwards. Not
one of the ladies knew the coachman, the number of the coach,
or even the colour of it, and their consternation at their loss
was, as may be well imaeined, extreme.. The coachman, on
returning to his stand in Trafalgar-square, opened his vehicle.
and discovered the precious parcel. On ascertaining the very
valuable nature of its contents, he immediately proceeded to
the house from whence he had conveyed the ladies, and to their
great gratification returned the property.
NiGHTINGALES.—M. Alerveaux has communicated to the
French Academy of Sciences a curiuue circumstance respect-
' ing some nightingaies in his garden. They had built their nest
in the lower part of a hedge, when some water in the neigh-
bunrhond rose with such impetuosity as to inundate the garden.
Mer%eaux watched the nightingales with some anxiety, and
one day, when the water had reached to within six paces of the
nest, he only perceived two eggs. He at first thought that the
nest had been abandoned, hut coining to it very soots after, he
only saw one, and waited this time to see the result. He was
much astonished to behold the last egg disappear with the birds,
who, flying cautiously, but rapidly, carried it to a pew nest, at
the highest part of the hedge, where he saw all four eggs de-
posited
in safety; and where they were afterwards hatched. He
could not ascertain how the parent birds carried these eggs.
Hoax.—Some mischeivous wag has played °lithe fi wing
trick at Glocester, which has created much merritnen .n that
city. About six o'clock on Monday evening, a person passing
through the Fox Entry found a brown raper parcel. A young
man behind him called out " halves." They proceeded to open
it, when they discovered a packet inside, endorsed " To John.
Chadhorn, they
James \\Toed, Esqr.'s codicil." The lucky
finders were in ecstacies. With the visions of the £20,000 re-
ward before their eyes, they started off to Mr. Chad born, who
received them most courteously; but, wishing that all due
formalities should be complied with, he sent to several alder-
men and town-councillors to he present at the opening of the
packet. Fold of paper after fold were duly unrolled amidst the
most contending feelings of hope, fear, and breathless anxiety.
It cannot be expected that we should paint the last scene of this
eventful inquiry when out tumbled a piece of dirty oil-cloth.
which the wag had enclosed in order to create a sensation in the
city, in which he succeded to his heart's coutent.
SINGULAR CIRCUUSTANCE.—The ship Persian, Commander
Hopkings, for Sydney, New South \Vales, which encountered
the hurricane on Tuesday, the 29th ult., in the Downs, and which
induced ,
tne captain to cut away the masts, as the only means of
saving the ship, cargo, and emigrants, has returned, and has,
been hauled into the W.ast India Docks, to undergo the neces-
sary repairs. The following singular circumstance occurred on
board the ship whilst lying in the Downs during the gale:—
A few minutes before the cominencement of the hurricane, a
fine Newfoundland dog, which had been pursuing his gambols,
on the deck, suddenly commenced running furiously from one
end of the ship to the other, foaming at the mouth, and exhibit-
ing all the symptoms of hydrophobia, when stone of the crew,.
becoming alarmed, betoule.thein aloft for safety ; the animal
then descended below, where there were several passengers, and
ran through every part of the ship in the same violent manner,.
but, fortureitely, without doing any injury. The captain, in the
meantime, ordered the chief mate to f tliow the dog and destroy
it. The animal, again, suddenly made his appearance on the
dock, and. bounding towards the stern of the vessel, where a
boat is usually attached, leaded into it, gazed for a moment,
plunged into the foaming waves, and was seen no more.—Car-
out,ian.

THE LAND TAX.—The county of Middlesex, the real pro;
petty in which is stated at £5,595,637. per annum, pays £236,246,
or about 10d. in the pound; while in Lancaster it is £3,087,774;
and the land t4x. only £19,109, or about lid in the pound. The,
great county of York pays about 41d, while Bedford is near

ASCENT TO TUE TOP or THE PEAK OF TENERIPPE.--A
paper WaS read at a recent meeting of the Geographical Society
giving an account of a spirited asi:ent to the top of the Peak of
Teneriffe, by Mr. Leacock, of 11Iadeira. The ascent was ac-
complished in cue day, and that in the depth of winter—an ex-
ploit without parallel. Our adventurous countrymen arrived at

peak, tint were assured by everybody
that it was quite out of the question at that season of the year,
and that it would-be madness to attempt it. Being cleterratned,
at an events, to go as. far as they could, they hired horses, and
told the mein that they intended to go only part of the way, as
far as they could conveniently. The guide would not listen to
the idea of going to the top; Mr. Leacock and Mr. Veitch,
therefore, made their arrangements quietly, aad started from
Oratava about half-past four in the morning of the 28th of Noy.,
and arrived at the Ptimeira Estattga between nine and ten.
The peak here rises abruptly from an immense plain of pumice-
stone; the sight was beautiful—the day was remarkably fine,
and the sun was shining hrtghtly on the snow on the top of the
peak. The travellers asked the guide if he would go with them,
but he refused, and said he would not for all the world ; money
was offered him, but he still .refused. They• put or; some ad-
ditional clothes:without being observed, and then role on la
fast-as they could, which was only a walk after all, and left the
.rnenlehnid. They rode the horses up the ascent till they could
go up further, and .then dismounted, leaving the horses to them-
selves. As Mr..Leacock and Mr. Veitct, had na guide, they
went straight up the face of the peak, and got to the top be-
tween twelVe and one o'clock; they climbed on the highest
point, and gave• three cheers; in the act of which a stronger
gust of wind than usual carried away Mr. L.'s cap in the air,
and be saw no more of it. They descended into thecrater,
collected specimens of the scoriae, and of the sulphur, which
was quite hot, and then made the best of their way down, and
reached Oratava again, between seven and eight o'clock the
same day.—Literary Gazette.

A TRUE Sporty.—An elderly gentleman, of retired habits
and plain address, took up his abode some years ago at a small
inn in a remote part of the most Milesian counties of Ireland.
He brought no servant to publish his affairs, and his travelling.
supeller indicated nothing of more than ordinary means. The
Mllesian squires were hospitable, after their fashion; that is,
they entertained the militia officers and dashing tourists, until..
all their nieces and daughters were married off; and if $
stranger of any distinction or supposed wealth came among them
he was sure of good entertainment, and an' offer of a foundered'
horse at full price. The pedestrian sojourner
,f whom we
speak, however, possessed none of the talismans which awaken
Irish hospitality, and he wits permitted, dining several weeks of.
his abode, to creep about the roads—he had a hint not to tres-
pass upon the fields—as onregarded as the curate himself, ,
though the latter had nine children, and was, moreover, a
heretic. One morning, however, introdued a smart gig, car-
rying the gay person of a smirking lawyer, and the gig was
followed at a distance by two post•cha Iles !rpm the nearest town,.
filled with surveyors and surveyors' men, and surveyors' instill-
tricots. More vehicles of various kinds followed, bringing
