GUANO.—There has been considerable increase in the
demand for African, and a further improvement has taken
place in prices •, extensive parcels have been disposed of
on the spot and to arrive at £5 10s. to £6 10s., and noth-
ing is to be purchased now under £5 15s. per ton. The
consumption is likely to be greater than ever, on account
of the low rates that prevail, and this being the best kind
of manure the farmers can use, it will be the cause of
further bringing a large quantity of poor land into cultiva-
tion.—London New Price Current.
Mr. WlNTEunorrom.—On Friday afternoon, at sir
o'clock, the prisoner was brought up in custody at the
Court-house, before Mr. Alderman Baker and P. A.
Marsland, Esq. Mr. Bushe, solicitor, of London, ap-
peared on behalf of Mr. Ford, bill-broker, of London,
who, it appears. holds a bill for £3,000 which he had
discounted for Mr. Winterbottom shortly before he left
England. No charge was gone into, but after some con-
ference between the parties, the prisoner wac remanded
till Monday. This, we understand, is done with a view
to give time for Mr. NsVeinetrearl friendsobotftowmi'lsom,it
is
staoidc,oatnrec
f,,rward in his behalf, several
making active exertions for that purpose.—Mrs. Isher-
wood. of Marple, and her daugllters, and Capt. Jackson.
late of the Manchester and Liverpool District Bank, are
summoned to appear as witnesses, should the charge be
gone into.

PONE DUST ON PASTURE LAND.—There is, perhaps,
no county in England where the pasture lands (particular
the poorer soils) have been so much improved during the
last ten or twelve years as in Cheshire ; and this princi-
pally by the application of what is termed bone dust.
This extraordinary manure has a peculiar effect upon the
poor clay land pastures ; for, on the application of boiled
bones, a sudden change takes place in the appearance of
the fields, and instead of the carnation-leaved or pink
grass, which so much abounds on this kind of land, a
luxuriant herbage presents itself, consisting of red and
white clover, trefoil, and other grasses, of which the cattle
ate so fond that they eat up almost everything before
them ; even thistles and rushes are very much eaten off
by the stock after the pastures have been bone dusted.—
Mr. Palin on Cheshire farniing,in the English Agricul-
tural Srciety's Journal.
THE PATENT METALLIC CAPSULES.—we bad an op-
portunity afforded us on Tuesday of witnessing the inge-
mous process cf manufacture of this very useful article,
for which the public are indebted to Messrs. Betts, the
patentees. It appears that the adoption, by these gen-
tlemen-, of the clever contrivance of the Metallic Capsules
was solely the result of a determination to protect their
brandy from fraudulent imitations, and from the damag-
ing effects of evaporation. It had been in use but a very
abort time, however, before other merchants and trades-
men were desirous of availing themselves of the applica-
tion of the invention, which desire rapidly extended itself
to persons whose goods issued from the manufactory is
bottles, jars, &c. ; as fur instance, pickles, preserves,
chemicals, as well as wines and spirits. This has already
led to the manufacture of the article upon a large scale,
the machinery of which is said to have cost the patentees
some thousands of pounds, The great advantage of the
capsules in all cases such as we have named is beyond
question. It is manufactured of the celebrated fiance
tin, which is peculiarly free from oxidation, and is made
to fit the neck of a bottle of any size, as a cap to the cork.
which it completely covers. Ii is fastened to the boale
in a manner that defies any ingenuity or power to remove
it without destroying it, hence its security against fraud;
"while the contents of the bottle, hearing the capsule, are
hermetically protected from atmospheric influence: The
cork is also perfectly protected from the ravages of insects
or other causes of decay. Thus is the metallic capsule
alike protective against the unerring operations of nature
and the erring designs of art. The machinery by wheel&
the article is turned out is very cleverly contrived; the
whole manufacture—even to the extent of imprinting
the name or device on the top—is accomplished by it, Ina
continuousintervention; and
operations,lt
t withoutwen ty the
thousandia d ofc capsules
a.dly are thus produced in a perfect state to be placed on
the bottles. It is well the manufacture is so expeditious,
for there cannot be a doubt of the article soon k i VA
cue ofzeneral indispensable utility.—,SMAN .
