In Russia coffins are generally brown, but children have
pink, grown up unmarried girls sky blue, while other fe-
males are indulged with a violet colour.
POTATO BRANDY.—Dr. Kane states that potato starch
is readily convertible into sugar, and this sugar, by fer-
mentation, yields spirit. On the continent, the manufac-
ture of sugar from corn is almost abolished. Potato spi-
rit is almost universally used, and, in flavour, it so resem-
bles brandy, that it is well known that a large quantity of
the French brandy brought into London, is potato spirit
from Hamburgh, coloured with burned sugar.
FEROCITY OF THE PHEASANT.—The cock pheasant
sometimes exhibits marks of great daring and fierceness,
even attacking man. I was once staying with a friend,
who had a bird of this chaucter in the plantations near
his house which was aceustaried to make frequent sallies
upon persons passing near the place of its resort. I saw
it myself fly boldly at the proprietor of the grounds, who
purposely approached the spot, in order that I might wit-
ness the extent of its courage and ferocity ; it commenced
pecking his legs, and striking with its wings, pursuing him
for a considerable distance down one of the walks. He
said that he generally carried a stick to beat it off, when-
ever he went that way. Some wood-cutters, who were at
work close by, were in the habit of protecting their legs
with strong leather gaiters from the attacks of this bird,
which was constantly interrupting and annoying them in
this manner.—Rev. L. Jetayne Observations.

GENERAL ANNUITY ENDOWMENT
ASSOCIATION,
40, KING WILLIAM-STREET, LONDON.

Established in 1829, with an accumulative Capital, at present
exceeding £200,000, invested in Government Securities, to
provide Annuities for the Nominees of deceased Members.

THE Public are particularly invited to examine the
principles and regulations of this Association. The
Annual Payment for each Annuity is 10s. for a person un-
der 21 years of age, and augmenting 2s. for each additional
year which the party may have attained at the time of his ad-
mission. Persons are permitted to subscribe to the extent of
12 shares. The amount to claimants for each annuity is .4.1.7
6s. Ad. The fundamental principles of this Association are
such as to enable it to pay agreater amount of annuity for the
premiums received than any other office. As one of those
regulations it may be mentioned that the annuity is suspended
to females during marriage. Further, by its being enrolled
under the Friendly Society Acts, 10th Geo. IV., c. 56, and 4th
and sth Wm. IV., c. 40, many advantages are obtained and
expenses-avoided.
Prospectuses and every information may be obtained on
application to Dr. HANNAY, Birkenhead.

The greatest

sufferers are, perhaps, the curers a

enterprise to French industry, but is sadly cramped b 1
this monopoly; and the Chamber of Commerce has ad-
dressed a memorial to the Ministers of Commerce and
Finance, with the object of obtaining permission to use
foreign salt during the season of 1847; the object being
to employ salt from the ports of Portugal, which can be
obtained for 10s. sd. per ton ; while, in France, it
40s. At present no notice has been taken of this memo
rial; but the Minister of Marine has announced, as usual,
that he should be ready to receive contracts for 200,000
tons of salt, to be delivered at the port of Brest. Salt is
annually getting more and more scarce in France, and the
greatest exertions are required to keep up a supply equal
to the demand, even at the present exorbitant prices.
Some rumours are afloat, of the probability that the tax
will be greatly reduced in the next session, and the jai-

port duty on British and Belgic salt repealed—the Minis-
ter of Commerce wishing to show some signs of attention
to petitions so respectably and numerously signed.

SPAIN also has severely suffered and still suffers from
the royal monopoly of the manufacture of salt ; through
it a considerable portion of the fish of the Atlantic and
Mediterrantan is entirely lost, which, in a Catholic coun-
try such as Spain, would add amazingly to the national
food ; and, surrounded as she is with prolific fishing
grounds, she is actually obliged to resort to England and
Newfoundland for salted codfish, an indispensible article
for the fast days of the people. The following extract

them are in Andalucia, Valencia, Catalona, and Majorca.
The salt works of Matra, in the kingdom of Valencia,
would easily furnish 1,500,000 of fanegas, of about 100 lhs
weight, which, could they find a market, would, at 22

News OF THE ORIENTAL—Those who have not yet
visited the Oriental Divan, Clayton-square, should not
omit an opportutunity,. for the arrangements not only
surpass those of every similar hotel, but the viands are of
the choicest kinds. An excellent steak, cut in the London
style, with all the etceteras, is charged Bd., and it may be
finished with half-pint of splendid amontillado sherry, or
fine flavoured port, for one shilling. This is but a single
article, but others are charged proportionately low; in-
deed, so low and so excellent as to have called from the
local press the following notices :
"The elegance with which it is fitted, the promptitude and
neatness with which every thing is served up, render it the
most fashionable restenrant."—Standard.
"The dinners and suppers cannot be excelled for variety, or
lowness of charges."—Albion.
It consolidates the reputation of the proprietor as a caterer
"
for the public."all—Mail.
"Suitable to classes—the wine is undeniable."— Times.
Connoisseurs in oysters are invited to taste the supply,
received every morning fresh from London, ls. ad. per
score. Dinners every day from one to five o l
ock. Scale
of charges laid on each table. Splendid private and
public billiard-rooms attached

J. FEIN", Proprietor,

SAGACITY OF ROOKS.—Rooks that are much shot at,
like those at Botisham, have the greatest possible dread
of a gun. Often, when walking in the neiglibourhond of
the trees, I observe they suffer 'me to approach within a
certain distance without taking fright, though they watch
my movements narrowly ; or are not much disturbed as
long as I i•ontinue walking on; but the moment I stop,
and put eves, a walking•stick to my shoulder, as if about
to fire at them, they are off direct!y ; and the distance at
which this will operate, often considerably mere than a
hundred yards, is quite surprising. It is also observable,
that when they would be frightened by any one walking
or stopping near the trees, they will often suffer a cart or
a carriage to pass immediately beneath them, without
taking the least notice. as if conscious that there was no
danger to be apprehended from such a source.—Rev. L.
,Jenyn 'tY Otiervations in Natural History.

a MESSUAGR or MANSION-HOUSE, with Outbuildings,
Garden, Orchard. and Fields, in the occupation of William
Mather, Esq. The FARM, with House and Outbuildings,

John Pcrwell. This Property comprises 180 A. la. 22r., statute

perty ; is five miles from the Liverpool Exchange, and adjoins

AS SUPPLIED- TO THE ROYAL TABLE.
VERREY'S MIXTURE OF 110WQUA TEAS.
VERREY and Co., of 229, Regent-street,
C • London, respectfully beg to inform the Nobility, Gentry,
and their numerous Friends, that owing to the difficulties expe-
rienced by them in procuring (in this country) a regular supply
of HOWQUA'S TEAS, equal in quality to the first importations
of that celebrated house, they have been induced to open a di-
rect correspondence with its present representatives, and in
consequence are enabled to pledge themselves to their numerous
patrons and the public generally, that their Mixtures of How-
q.ua's Black Teas will comprise only the very finest sorts con-
signed to Great Britain.

The anxiety felt by C. Verrey and Co. to secure a continuance
of the public preference will doubtless prove a sufficient guaran-
tee for the quality of their consignments, and they have no
hesitation in stating that their Teas will be found alike remark-
able for extreme purity, fragrant aroma, and extraordinary
strength of flavour.

In addition to the Mixture of Howqua Teas above recom-
mended, C. Verrey and Co. enjoy the exclusive privilege of
offering that very celebrated Tea, known as Howqua's Small-
leaf Gunpowder, which is only produced on the Estate of that
highly successful cultivator and Hong Merchant.

thii Tea has elicited the unqualified approval of all connois-
seurs, and is, in fact, universally admitted to be the finest arti-
cle ever submitted to the British Public, and, on trial, will be
found decidedly more economical than the description of Teas
in present use. _ _ _

Verrey and Co. have pleasure in adding that the whole of
their Teas are blended by themselves; and to prevent the pos-
sibility of any adulteration, as well as to secure to purchasers
the undoubted possession of their high qualities, they are care-
fully inclosed in packages impervious to the atmosphere; and
may be had of Mr. FEENY, Confectioner, St. James-street, their
appointed Agent for Liverpool.

not any longer to be under this degrading ban. This

e fragment; of marble columns, broken up, and put
down for repairs. And there is one beautiful, palace-
like, ancient Roman building, the name of which I at this
moment forget—the theatre of Marcellus, I think—near
the Sreta and the fish market, now abused by its being
turned into blacksmiths' shops and stables for cattle, and
it is well worthy of note, whether it be the Coliseo, Pan-
theon, temple of Claudius, tom, otAdrian, or arches of

I Constantine. Any and all of the ancient Ro-
man pagan structures are disfigured by modern inscrip-
tions, eulogising in Latin the pious Pope that has pre-
served and beautified these edifices (as our churchwardens
do our churches); and no doubt many good Catholics
believe the good popes built the said temples, tombs, and
theatres. Again the most beautiful churches are indebted
to the ancient Romans for their magnificent marble co-
lumns. In many churches, these noble columns are of
one entire piece of granite or marble, and from thirty to
forty in number. When the beautiful church of St. l'aul
was destroyed by fire, the fine marble columns only sur-
vived ; and they are now erected to decorate the new pile!
which church when finished will almost rival St. Peter's,
and which every
stranger at Rome should certainly not
omit visiting ; and it is a delightful drive of two or three
miles to its pleasant site. The population of ancient
Rome is variously stated, Tacitus asserting it to have
been eleven million one hundred arid fifty-twn thousand ;
another authority limiting it to twice the amount of our
metropolis of London—only four millions. My opinion
