DEATH AT THE TOILET —On Wednesday as the servant
of Miss Wallis, an elderly maiden lady, residing in Trinity-
street, in Bristol, was engaged in attending her mistress's
toilet, and whilst in the act of brushing her hair, to her
great horror, the unfortunate lady suddenly fell off the
chair and expired.
The West India Royal Mail Steam- packet Company
have at length determined on building timber, and not

Five flax-dressers of Montrose got into a crazy boat
last week for the purpose of fishing. They drifted out to

Mr. Farrands, of Basford, Notts, was waiting in a
plantation near his house yesterday week, when he was
startled by the furious bellowing of a bull in the next

spite of all his efforts to disengage it.
Al Darl:ston six hundred gun-lock filers have struck,

to tax their wages to the still greater amount of 25 per
cent. additional.

A flourishing trade has sprung up recently at Newcastle
in rats, which are said to be used for matches in rat-killing
with dogs. Little urchins may be seen almost daily fishing
for them with baited hook and line through the grating of
the street sewers, and it appears they find a ready market,
so much as three-pence ner head being paid for them.
ALARMING COACH ACCIDENT.—The Retaliator coach,
returning from Writtle races on Tuesday night, on its way
to Romford, was overturned near Shenfield toll-gate, and
the passengers, about twenty in number, were precipitatei
with great violence to the ground. Though many sustained
bruises, happily not a bone was broken. The vehicle was
shattered.—Chelmsford Chronicle.
Last week, while a young man named Fish, who
carried a large hayfork in his hand, was descending a
ladder from the top of a hayrick, in a field near Romsey,
Hants, he slipped and fell upon the points of the fork,
which entered his abdomen, and wounded him so fright-
fully that he died after enduring excruciating agony for
about thirty hours.
A farmer named Belton, living at Hemingsby, Lin-
colnshire, lost a cow some five or six weeks since, and in
spite of an active search he failed to discover what had
become of her. About a fortnight ago, while passing
near a stack in his yard, he smelled a strong stench, and
upon a close examination the remains of the cow were
found between the joints of a straw stack, where she
seemed to have jammed herself.
A few days since, two boys, who were bathing at Cove
Haven, near Arbroath, narrowly escaped from a large
shark, which turned upwards to seize one of them, at a
moment when they were scrambling on a rock to avoid
his pursuit. Several sharks have lately been seen on the
coast in the neighbourhood of Arbroath, which they are
supposed to have visited in pursuit of the young her-
rings which now abound in those waters.
While some children were amusing themselves by leap-
ing from a stile over a stick fixed in the ground, at
Hardendale, Westmoreland, on the 18th ultimo, a little
girl, named Bainbridge, only four years old, fell upon the
stick, which pierced the flesh below her elbow, and broke
her arm. She lingered for several days, but at length
mortification appeared in the wound, and she died on the
following Saturday.

MAJOR EDWARDES AND THE CORN LAWS.—We find
the following in the Morning Herald :
Next to Sir Robert Peel, Mr. Eisenberg claims the gratitude
of England for repealing our oppressive Corn Laws.
June 21, 1850. HERBERT EDWARDES.
Now the gallant Major is a Protectionist, but his eulogy
of Mr. Eisenberg is accounted for by the fact that that
personage had the honour of operating on the feet of the
Major. Ife is a corn Doctor !
Some thieves broke into the Blue Posts Tavern, South-
ampton-buildings, London, a few nights eince, and stole
a cash-box, containing about £5 in silver coin, and some
dock warrants and other securities. On the following
day, they returned the cash-box and the papers, which
were useless to them, through the parcels delivery com-
pany; but it is needless to add that the cash was retained
by the thieves, whom the police have hitherto failed to
discover.

While a chimney-sweeper was sweeping a chimney on
the roofs of a building in Rose-street, Glasgow, on Sa-
turday week, the pot broke, and he rolled down the roof.
In his despair he clutched the gutter at the end of the
roof, and hung by his hands for several minutes, until at
length his grasp relaxed, and he fell from a height of
three storeys, into the yard below, sustaining very severe
injuries from the fall, though hopes are entertained that
he will recover.

THE NEW CANTERBURY SETTLEMENT.—It has been
determined that the chief town of the new settlement of
Canterbury, in the middle islands of New Zealand, shall
be called " Lyttelton," in honour of the noble lord who
is chairman of the committee. The seat of the new
diocese will be in that town, and Dr. Jackson, who is
about proceeding thither, will take the title of " Bishop
of Lyttelton," instead of " Bishop of Christchurch," as
was at first intended.

STEAMER BLOWN UP.—On the 10th instant, at Ply-
mouth, at a little before seven o'clock, the Queen stea-
mer, Captain Williams, blew up when lying off North-
corner-steps, Hamoaze. At the time of the accident the
only person below was a man named Lane, who was
carried away with the wreck. The after-end of the
boiler is blown completely out, taking with it the after-
deck and cabin, companion, seats, and all. Six persons
were on board; Lane is missing; Mitchell, the engineer,
seriously scalded ; James Smith, stoker, leg broken ; a
fourth man injured ; and two escaped without hurt.
THE MAD CHARTIST.—At Guildhall, on Wednesday,
the person who stands charged with using seditious lan-
guage, and who refused to give his name, describing him-
self as " a determined Chartist," was brought before
Alderman Salomons for further examination. The pri-
soner still declined to give any account of himself, and
during the reading of the depositions and doaiments
found on him (one of which, it will be recollected, was a
plan to set fire to the ladies' dresses at Kensington Gar-
dens,) frequently burst out laughing. Mr. Raven, from
the office of Mr. Maule, solicitor to the treasury, attended,
and said that the desire of the Secretary of State was that
he should be bound over to keep the peace in sufficient
securities. The prisoner entered into a rambling state-
ment, saying that he was anxious to serve out the aristo-
cracy, that he would think no more of killing 500 persons
than he would of killing a fly, and that he should take
time to consider the proposition as to finding bail. Ile
was then removed in custocli4

THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

A ROYAL PRESENT FROM NEFAUL.—Amongst the
treasures brought over for the Queen by the Nepaulese
Ambassador, are twelve cows' tails set in silver ; this gift
being considered by the Rajah of Nepaul as a mark of the
greatest respect. The Rajah himself only possesses eight,
and as the possession of these insignia of greatness are
considered a proof of the highest position, a presentation
of twelve was considered quite overwhelming. The value
of the gifts amounts, we believe, to about £20,0t49.
ISLE OF MAN HERRING FISHING-BOATS.—On Tues-
day night last, as the boats were lying with their nets
shot, a sudden gale sprung up, which carried away the
trains of nets from twenty boats. Some of the boats
were very nearly lost, as the sea ran high, it being off the
Calf. The loss of nets was estimated at £l,OOO. We
are happy to hear that the whole fleet of boats went in
search of the nets on Thursday, and recovered eighteen
trains : some had drifted as far as the Point of Ayr. In
consequence of this disaster, the fishing has been limited
this week.—Mona's Herald.
PERILOUS BALLOON EXCURSlON.—Lieutenant Gale
made his ascent from the Swiss Gardens, Shoreham, at
seven o'clock on Monday evening, and took a southerly
direction across the Channel, the wind at the time of the
ascent being very moderate. About nine o'clock, Lieut.
Gale was seen by the master of a Brighton plaasure-
boat, who had put out expressly to follow the aeronaut,
making rapidly for the French coast. Since the above
period nothing was heard of Lieut. Gale until two o'clock
on Thursday morning, when information was received
that he had effected a descent in the neighbourhood of
Dieppe.
USE OF CHLOROFORM.—A little girl, five years old,
daughter of a respectable inhabitant of the town, while
playing with another child, accidentally got a small
pebble about the size of a pea into one of its ears. On
surgical assistance being resorted to, it was found to have
sunk to the lowest part of the orifice, resting on the
tympanum, and owing to the smoothness of the stone,
the smallness of the aperture, and acute pains attending
the introduction of either forceps or probe, it seemed
next to impossible that it could be extracted. As delay
was dangerous, an experienced medical practitioner pro-
posed the use of chloroform, under the influence of which
the little sufferer sank into a short trance, and the slippery
substance was got out without any ill effects, except a
slight inflammation.—Gloucester Chronicle.
PEN AND INK PORTRAIT OF CAXTON.—A portrait of
William Caxton, the first English printer, has been exe-
cuted by Mr. Minasi, with pen and ink, which is really an
extraordinary work f art. It is elaborately finished, and
presents all the appearance of a line engraving, from
which, indeed, few persons could distinguish it. The
pen must have been used with a firm, soft, and skilful
hand, to have produced a work of such exquisite finish ;
and the power of Mr. Minasi over such an instrument as
the pen is the more remarkalqle, inasmuch as he is now far
advanced in years. The artist has copied a couple of
sentences respecting Caxton, which will apply with equal
truth to himself:—" His great age seemed not to have
abated his constant application at a period when nature,
worn out by the cares and trammels of life, seeks repose.
He continued indefatigable, labouring with the vigour and
more than the perseverance of youth." The portrait is
rather appropriately dedicated to the editors and printers
of England.

A NEW ISLAND.—A very interesting discovery of a
large island, entirely unknown, we believe, to navigators,
was made in November last, by Captain M`Michael, of
the ship Montauk, on his voyage from Sidney, N.S.W.,
to Shanghai, in China. It lies between the Loo Choo
Islands and Japan, and occupies the positions embraced
by what are presented in the ordinary Admiralty charts
as three distinct and small islets, termed respectively
Harhor, Bungalow, and Crown Islands ; of which the two
first named have very nearly the same meridian, about
130 deg. 6 min. E. from Greenwich ; while Bungalow is
in 28 deg. 20. min., and Harbor Island in 28 deg. 20 min.
N. lat. ; Crown Island being placed more at the south
and west. It was, of course, the eastern front of the
island which was seen by Captain M'Alichael ; and so far
as he was able to observe, it extended from 27 35 to nearly
28 40 N. lat., and from 120 5 to 130 18 E. lon., through-
out which limits he coasted it, approaching sometimes
within ten or fifteen miles of the shore.

HARROW SctiooL,—The annual fete clay at Harrow
school came off on Wednesday, instead of the first Wed-
nesday in the month, when a most numerous and dis-
tinguished company assembled. Long before the hour
appointed for the speeches a vast number visited the old
school-room to see the autograph of the late Sir Robert
Peel, carved in the panel, one remove from the seat of
the head-master, and it was remarked that within the
two last letters of his name was the name " Percival," cut
by that unfortunate statesman. On the same panel were
the names of Sir Robert's three elder sons—" R. Peel,
1835 ;" "F. Peel, 1836 ;" and "W. Peel, 1837." Many
also paid a visit to the monitor's library, to see the re-
corded speech list of July 5, 1804, in which his name was
mentioned in conjunction with that of Lord Byron, and a
scholar of the name of " Lecke," unknown to contem-
porary fame. At the present moment when Sir R. Peel's
untimely death is fresh in the public mind, the follow.
extract taken from the speech list of the year before men-
tioned, may not prove unacceptable :
Lord Byron .. Latinus.
Lecke .. Dances. }Ex Virgilio.
Peel, sen. Turnus. _ _

GAS-BURNERS.—We have received from the commis-
sioners for lighting the parish of St. James, Westminster.
a report of the results of experiments made by Mr.
Leslie, at their request, in the presence of a deputation
from their body, viz.:—Lord de Manley, Hon. Frederick
Byng, Messrs. Bidgood, Clark, Gabriel, Rose, Sasse,
Tritton, and Woollams, as to the comparative value of
the gas supplied by the Chartered Gas Company and that
made by the Western Gas Company, from Cannel coal.
Each company supplied its own burners, and in every in-
stance the unanimous vote of the deputation decided the
point of equal illumination. These experiments show
several points. First, that although the illuminating
power of the Western Company's gas made from Cannel
coal is much greater than that of the Chartered, it is not
so much so as to enable the former to maintain the high
price they put upon it ; 2d, that the " hat's-wing"
burner is superior to the " fish-tail" and 3d, that Les-
lie's burner is to an extraordinary extent better than the
best of them. The evidence given to the House of Com-
mons on the Central Gas Company's Bill by Mr. Boken-
ham, the superintendent of the Inland Department of the
London Postoffice, is even more conclusive on the point.—
The Builder.

IRON ORE.—IMPORTANCE OF AN INCREASED SUP-
PLY.—We have received a report, addressed to the di-
rectors of the London and Northwestern Railway Com-
pany, on the subject of iron ore, by Mr. Braithwaite
Poole, general goods manager of the London and North-
western, Lancaster and Carlisle, and Caledonian Railway
Companies. The object of the writer is to show the
value of iron ore to the iron trade generally, and the ad-
vantages to be obtained by the ironmasters of Stafford-
shire and Yorkshire in having daily supplies of ore, in-
stead of uncertain and irregular supplies, as at present ;
and he also urges the necessity of railway managers ac-
commodating and encouraging this trade, pointing to the
district of Furness, near Ulverstone, as a locality parti-
cularly worthy of attention, from the superior quality of
the ore which it yields. After expressing an opinion that
most of the coasting navigation trade is divertible to the
railways, he proceeded to point out the value of pig-iron,
" the basis from whie% evarything in mechanics is
made or constructed." Pig-iron, he tells us, is
chiefly made from the best iron ore ; and the
Staffordshire ironmasters have reef ntly had their attention
directed to the fact that the use of the haematite ores of
Furness imparts greater strength, greater power of resist-
ance to sudden shocks or strains, and will produce more
dense, solid, and sound metal thon any other ore of iron ;
their purity and easy fusibility rendering the use of them
very desirable and advantageous, especially in furnaces
where more refractory and less pure mineral is used, as
the rich ores assist to fuse, smelt, and separate more per-
fectly the iron from poorer ores :—" Taking a retrospec-
tive view of this trade in Furness, it appears that, half-a-
century ago, the total quantity of ore sent from Barrow,
say in the year 1800, was 1,200 tons, and last year (1849)
it amounted to 146,000 tons, as shown by the books of the
harbour trustees; and such is presumed to be the inex-
haustible supply in the Furness district, that double the
latter quantity might easily be obtained and disposed of
annually, if greater convenience of transmission be esta-
blished."

DOUBLE SUICIDE IN NEIVGATE—It is not often we have
to record a more awful effect of crime than that which
took place on Saturday. The two convicts, Walter Watts,
late lessee of the Olympic Theatre, and Donald Black-
staff Donovan, who was convicted of having thrown his
wife out of the window, committed suicide in Newgate,
both in a similar manner. The first-named W. Watts,
bad been ill for the last few week of his confinement, and
had been an inmate of the ward infirmary. The unfortun-
ate man had suffered severely from diarrhoea, and was in
the habit, during the night, of going to the water-closet.
A fellow-prisoner, who slept in the adjoining bed, having
perceived his absence on Friday night for an unusually long
period, thought that something wrong might have taken
place, and, having gone down to the water-closet, dis-
covered the deceased hanging to the bar of the window-
sill by a piece of rope attached to his cravat. He was
immediately cut down, and Mr. M`Murdow, the prison
surgeon, was called in, but the unfortunate man had
breathed his last. The deceased (Watts) for a long time
before he became mixed up with theatrical speculations,
was looked upon as a most singular and somewhat ex-
travagant person. He kept his town house and also a
country establishment : the latter was near Brighton, and
when he came to London, which was generally of a morn-
ing, he would have his carriage and servant in waiting at
the London Bridge terminus ready to drive him to the
Globe Insurance office, or any place he might wish to visit.
Although he enjoyed a good salary, it was a matter of
astonishment to many how he could keep up such an rip
pearance, more especially as he was in the habit of giving,
on frequent occasions, champagne breakfasts and other
expensive entertainments. Prior to taking either the
Marylebone or Olympic Theatre, he mixed frequently
with betting men, and, according to his own account, was
lucky enough to win considerable sums of money. From
what has since transpired, there is every reason to belive
that, instead of his gaining such large sums as he had re-
presented, lie was a considerable loser by his speculations.
His defalcations to the Globe Insurance Company reached,
it is said, to nearly £BO,OOO, a small portion of which will
have to be made good by his bondsmen. The career of
Donovan, who was termed an ex-pugilist,is shortly told.
His life wai one of great dissipation and riot, and in a
moment of great pass on he attempted to destroy the life
of his wife in the brutal manner already fully described in
the report of his trial, 11 throwing her out of the window.
After th 3 sentence of death was recorded against him he
passed the convict Watts on his way to the prison. He
was then placed in the cell appropriated to prisoners after
trial, and was visited several times by the officer in atten-
dance. About three o'clock the officer, upon going into
the cell, discovered that he had hanged himself by tying
his neckerchief to the iron bar of the window, and then
jumping from the beadstead. Winn taken down, ke wag
quite dead.—London Paper.

FUNERAL OF ThE LATE CAPTAIN AND' MR4: M'NEIL
AND THEIR Two DAUGHTERS, LOST iN THE ORION.—
The body of this unfortunate gentlemaii*iii•yvith that
of his wife and those of his two daughters; anieyed on
Wednesday by the steamer Briton, from Stranraer to
West Tarbet, where the vessel was met by a large number
of near relatives and friends of the deceased, and then
proceeded to the family burying ground on the island of
Gigha. On nearing that island each of the bodies was
placed in a separate barge, and rowed ashore. At this
time the neighbouring land was covered with multitudes
of Highlanders, who had come to see the last sad rites
performed over those whom they had revered and loved;
and the scene was a most painful and affecting one.
DETENTION OF A WIFE.—The Rev. Josiah Bartlett,
of lvington, near Leominster, in the adjoining county of
Hereford, has sued his brother-in-law, Mr. Boult, for
compensation in damages for having unlawfully induced
the plaintiff's wife to leave him in 1845, and keeping and
harbouring her ever since. It. was pleaded by the defendant
that the plaintiff's wife left him partly in consequence of
his own ill treatment of her, and also in obedience to
letters written by him, in which he ordered her to leave
his house and go to her relations. The reverend plaintiff
sued in forma pauperis, and the case was heard on
Tuesday in the Court of Exchequer, when certain docu-
mentary evidence being ruled by the court as inadmissable,
the plaintiff consented to a nonsuit.

ESCAPE FROM A NUNNERY.—The Roman Catholic
nunnery, which was commenced near Loughborough
some time back, is now completed, and is inhabited by a
number of ladies. On Tuesday morning, one of them,
who, it would appear, had become weary of such a se-
cluded life, by some means effected an escape. The
sisterhood were thrown into a state of confusion and
excitement at so unexpected a flight, and messengers
were speedily despatched in various directions in quest of
the fair fugitive. Before the close of the day she was
found at the monastery of Mount St. Bernard, near
Whitwick, and the following day was removed to her
former place of abode. Her escape must have been
effected in a manner somewhat irregular, as the building
is entirely surrounded by a high brick wall.—Nottingham
Journal.

DEATH ON A RAILWAY.—On the arrival of the up
mail train at Loughborough station, on Friday evening
last, a first-class passenger was missed from one of the
carriages in which he had been placed at Derby. The
telegraph was set to work to send a pilot engine from Lei-
cester station, and ascertain, if possible, what had become
of him. Notice was also given to the engineers of the
down mail train to be on the look out for him. There
was no spare engine to be got at Leicester, consequently a
telegraphic message was sent to Derby, and a pilot engine
was despatched from that town in quest of him. When
the down mail had got near to Kegworth, the passenger
was seen lying by the side of the rails. On stopping the
train, and proceeding to his assistance, he was found quite
dead : the train had taken off a portion of one foot.
Whether the unfortunate man jumped out through the
window (for he was locked in), or was leaning over the
side, and overbalanced himself, is not known, but the pro-
bability is, that it was intentionally done. We under-
stand his name to be Harley, a traveller for a London
house.

STATE EXHIBITIONS.—During 1849 no less than
168,000 visitors repaired to Hampton Court, and 137,000
to the Kew Botanic Gardens. In July, nearly 50,000
visited Hampton Court. To Kew the largest number of
visitors was in August, when 31,100 persons took their
pleasure in the gardens. The Tower does not appear to
be by any means so popular a place of public amusement.
The number of visitors to the Armoury last year was
45,000 ; the number to the Jewel House, 41,000. The
receipts, at 6d, each person, fell somewhat short of the
expenses. With reeard to Westminster Abbey and St.
Paul's, the total sum received for fees at the Abbey in
1849 was £96S Bs. 6d. Of this amount £739 was paid
to the tomb-showers, £34 was paid for cleaning the mo-
numents, and £195 was carried to the " Ornamental
Fund," from which, it seems, all the recent improvements
and decorations in the choir have been made. At St.
Paul's last year the amount of fees taken was only £430,
the whole of which is given to the vergers. Since 1845
the receipts bane fallen off every year, and last year they
had decreased £l5O upon the amount then received.
ImmeßsioN.—On Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Williams, of
Cornbourne, Goudhurst, had come from thence to Yald-
ing, to witness the ceremony of immersion performed by
Mr. Pryer, farmer, of this place, who is a Latter-Day-
saint, or Plymouth Brother. The company were pre-
paring to start for the river in Northwood, where the
business was to be transacted, and a Mr. Slade, of Goud-
hurst, was the person who was to be immersed, but the
ceremony was prevented by a most serious accident.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams had concluded to ride down to
the river, and had just got in a cart for that purpose
when the horse ran back into a very deep pond in Mr.
Pryer's yard, and horse, cart, and Mr. and Mrs. Williams,
were very quickly out of sight, and under the water.
The persons present, with great presence of mind, threw
into the pond a sheep gate, and Mrs. Williams came up
first, and caught hold of it, and then grasped her hus-
band by one arm, the party dragging the sheep gate to-
wards the yard, with Mrs. Williams and her husband,
and thus both were saved from their perilous situation.
The horse was drowned and the cart broken to pieces.—
Rochester Gazette.

A MAGISTRATE CONVICTING HlMSELF.—According
to the Bradford Observer, the following rich scene
occurred in the Police-court of that borough on Tuesday
last :—lt seems that the authorities have been waging
war against all parties suffering their dogs to go at large,
and in this anti-canine war Mr. Alderman Rand has
zealously distinguished himself, and won the thrnks of
many persons who stand in dread of hydrophobia. On
Tuesday, however, when Mr. Rand was on the bench,
policeman Dean came forward, and addressing Mr.
Rand, said—" About five minutes to twelve o'clock, on
the 2d of July, T saw your dog going at large !" Alder-
man Rand—" You saw Mr. Rand's dog going at large?
How far was it from his house ?" Policeman—" About
thirty or forty yards." Alderman Rand— " And are you
quite sure of that ?" Policeman—" I am quite sure of
it : I followed it to the back door of your house, and your
servant owned it was your dog !" The worthy magis-
trate, concluding that the evidence was dead against him,
proceeded to pass sentence upon himself in the following
terms :—" For this offence, Mr. Rand, you are fined ss.
and expenses 9s. (Laughter.) If not paid a warrant of
distress will be issued ; and if there be not sufficient
goods upon which to levy, you will be committed for 14
days to the House of Correction !" (Loud laughter.)

THE EXHIBITION OF 1851.—The opposition to the
erection of the proposed structure in Hyde-park conti-
nues to be maintained by the press generally, even by
those journals who are friendly to the exhibition itself.
The Times especially devotes the service of its powerful
pen, day after day, to the defence of the green sward and
the elms of Hyde-park. The only exception of any
weight to this unanimity of sentiment is the Morning
Chronicle, which undertakes the advocacy not only
of the exhibition, but of its intended site :—" We
heartily congratulate," says our enthusiastic contem-
porary, " the country on the victory which justice, public
spirit, and common sense, have won over a little knot
of exclusives and obstructives. The great and noble
undertaking to which the name and honour of the nation
stand pledged will now go forward with the increased
prestige derived from difficulties surmounted and oppo-
sition subdued ; the Industrial Festival of 1851 will be
kept in a style befitting the m'ghty interests which it is
designed to promote ; and the hundreds of thousands of
hard-working operatives, who are husbanding their spare
earnings that they may participate in the triumph of their
" order" will not undergo the humiliation of being told
that the best of the London parks is too good for them,
and that wealth and fashion cannot even spare a corner
for the seemly and honourable accomodation of Industry."
The Daily News brings up the rear by declaring that
however it might have been disposed to discountenance
the site in question, the objections now come too late.
THE POST-OFFICE AND ITS ABUSES.—It appears from
a certain most extraordinary ledger which we were per-
mitted to peruse, that a portion of the public availed them-
selves of this inestimable literary indulgence with about
as much consideration as a herd of very hungry pigs might
be expected to evince on being allowed, for recreation, to
walk in a garden of beautiful tulips ; and, certainly, if the
ghost of our excellent old friend the late Sir Francis Free-
ling could by conjuration be made to read the list of the
" packets" which have been transmitted and delivered by
post, it certainly, like that of Hamlet, would exclaim to
our energetic Postmaster-General—
" 0 horrible ! 0 horrible ! most horrible,
If thou bast nature in thee, bear it not."
For instance, it appears that there have been transmitted
as " packets"—From Blackburn, in Lancash;re, to Spi
talfields, London, two canary birds, delivered by the post-
man alive and well. From Devonport to London, a pork
pie. To London, a woodcock, also a pair of piebald mice,
which were kept in the postoffice a month, fed, and at last
delivered to the owner, who called for them. From Man-
chester to Castle-street, Borough, two rabbits and one
bird—fifteen parcels of plumb pudding. From Bangor to
Plymouth, a lobster. In one day 31 letters containing
wedding-cake. On more than one occasion, without any
envelope, a bank-note (one was for no less than £5O), the
two ends being merely folded upon each other, wafered,
and the back of the note then directed ! Innumerable
leeches in bladders, several of which having burst, and the
water having wetted the letters, many of the creatures
were found crawling over the correspondence of the coun-
try. From Plymouth to " Hunmanby," a bottle of
cream. From a mother to her son, a pottle of strawber-
ries, which, being smashed in the bag, completely de-
stroyed a " packet" full of very valuable lace, addressed
to the late Queen Dowager. A ship-biscuit, the address
being on a very small piece of paper pasted thereon.
From Totness to Dublin, an uncovered bottle full of liquor,
merely labelled with an address and the words " sample
of cyder." From Exmouth to Hastings, half a pound of
soft soap in thin paper. From Bishop's Stortford to
Brunswick-square, a fish ; also several packages of plants
in wet moss. From Hastings to Bath, a bunch of grapes ;

LIVERPOOL CORN R.

:CHANGE, JULY 9.

The mail steamer Canada which arrived hereon Sunday last,
brings intelligence from New York to the 25th ultimo. In-
dian Corn•continued firm at 62c. to 63c. for mixed, and 64c.
per 561 b. for round and flat yellow.
Except Malt, of which we have a good supply coastwise, and
of Flouramounting to 2,088 sacks from Ireland, the receipts
from those sources into this port since this day week have been
trivial; from the North and South of Europe and Egypt; how-
ever, we have again to note a large supply of Wheat, a tolerably
good import-of other Grain; and thence, but principally from
the United States, 19,003 qrs. of Indian Corn, against nearly
14,000 qrs. of that article, besides other produce, shipped to
Ireland; •whilst of Flour from abroad the arrivals comprise
5,031 barrels of American, and 4.345 sacks of French. _

Redbreast, Williams, ancillero, Young, sailed from Charente
for this port 22th June.
Lerwick, Giffney, of •Dundalk, from Sydney, C. 8., to Fleet-
wood, was fallen in with, 18th June, in lat. 46, long. 42. and
the master, who was the only person onboard, the crew having
previously got on board the Camerton, for Quebec, taken off
by the Northumbria, arrived at Bristol.

Our market this morning was numerously attended by town
and country millers, who purchased Wheat more freely than
of late, and a tolerably extensive business was transacted in all
good qualities, at an advance of 3d. to 4d. per 701b5., and in
some cases still rather higher prices were obtained.
Flour was also in fair demand, and Is. per sack dearer.
Barley and Malt, although in slow request, were the turn
dearer.—Beans and Pease, attended with occasional sales, re-
mained steady in value.—Oats, upon a moderate demand, im-
proved id. per 461b.—Oatmeal, on the contrary, appeared nearly
without inquiry, but remained nominally unaltered in value.—
Indian Corn, although but in moderate request to-day, improved
a little upon Friday's advance, and was fully 6d. per gum ter
higher than on this day se'nnight.

«CORN EXCHANGE. JULY 12.

'The stormyand wet weather of last week, combined with the
sudden rise in London and the high tone of continental hold-
era, appears to have produced a corresponding influence upon
nearly all the British markets held since Monday, especially in
relation to Wheat, which is not only reported to have excited
more active business in that Grain generally, but in many in-
stances an advance of at least Is. to 2s. per quarter.—ln Ire-
land .the Wheat trade, with scanty supplies, is also reported
Omer, and the markets there, dependent almost wholly on
extraneous support, moist necessarily follow in the track of
those on this side the Channel. We have received no Grain
whatever coastwise, and. carcely any thing worth naming from
Ireland since Monday whilst the arrivals into this port
during that period from abroad, are only moderate, consisting
merely of Wheat, Indian Corn, and Flour. Although the
transactions Ilene between Tuesday and to-day have not been
generally extensive, coufideure as to the future appeared to
remain unabated, and prices of all leading articles well sup-
ported.

PRICES OF PROWS]
MARKET,

s. d. e. d.

The millers and dealers having supplied their wants pretty
freely on Tuesday, and the weather having become exceedingly
fine and warm' we had a very slender attendance of buyers at
our market to-day, and upon a limited demand only for Wheat
of all descriptions, the advance noted in our last was barely
sustained.—Flour, on the contrary, met' an improved sale,
States and Canadian realising 6d. per barrel, and Irish as well
as French 6d. per sack over previous quotations.—Barley,
Malt, Beans, and Pease, although not offered cheaper, were
difficult to sell, even in retail quantities, at late prices.—Oats
being in moderate request were the turn deareri but in Oat-
meal there was not the slightest amendment—lndian Corn,
for which very few buyers appeared this morning, was taken
sparingly, and although importers were not generally disposed
to sell on lower terms, a decline of 6d. per
quarter was in Par-
tial instances conceded.

WAKEFIELD CORN MARKET, JULY 12.
The arrivals continue liberal. An advance of 2s. per quarter
is required on Wheat, which millers reluctantly comply with,
and the business limited, yet holders evince considerable firm-

STATE OF TRADE.

MA NCHESTEn.—A good business has continued in the yarn
market throughout the present week, with a gradual but steady
advance in prices. Spinners are pretty generally engaged to
•order ; and, with an advancing cotton market, are not disposed
•to place themselves under further contracts, at anything below
very full prices. In some quarters extreme rates are required,
which gives rise to same irregularities in the prices asked.
With a few exceptions, fully id. per lb. more has been obtained
since this day week, for most descriptions of yarns, and in
some few instances much more. Buyers who have held off in
consevence of previous advances, are now becoming more
desirous of placing their orders.
Root' D LE.—A good demand for flannels, and the manufac-
turers are wanting rather better prices. The wool market is
better; colonial wool much the same.
LEEDS.—The woollen cloth trade here continues brisk, and
prices, on account of the increased cost of the raw material,
have a slightly upward tendency.
BRADFORD.—WOOI : The attendance of staplers and spin-
ners at the neighbouring fairs and markets keeps new wools
well supported. Noils and brokes are good sale at 10s. to 20s.
per pack advance, and the stocks on hands small. Yarns con-
tinue in good request, both for shipping Lnd home consump-
tion, and late prices are firmly maintained, with a disposition
for a further advance. Pieces : There continues to be a brisk
demand for all kinds of goods suitable for the autumn ; and
the market being generally bare of stock, higher prices are
submitted to. The manufacturers complain greatly at the
very small margin of profit between the cost of raw material
and the -finishing of the cloth.
HA LI FAX.—No noticeable change in the state of trade here,
the chief inquiry being still for low lastings. Yarn trade brisk ;
and the quotations have undergone .a further improvement.
There is a large stock of wool in the market, and dealers are
buying largely.
111.70IIERSFIELD.—Tbe improvement of last week has been
pretty -steadily maintained. The price of wool has been ad •
vancing.

lowing inscription.:—" From the East India Company to Lieut.
