A gentleman farmer in Worcestershire, renting from
800 to 1,000 acres of land, and having an estate of his own
which he had granted a long lease of a short time previous
to the importation of free corn, has now cancelled the
same. In addition to this, he has reduced the rent to his
tenant 20 per cent.

'emale searcher, however, thought that the bulk was
able without the attendance of a midwife; and,
accordingly, eased the defendant in a short time by pulling
a large bladder filled with brandy from the front of her
person.

On Saturday night week, some burglars broke into the
house of Mr. T. Dixon, at Yeadon, near Leeds, and stole
a silver watch, two hams, and other articles. The hams
were hung in a room near a bed occupied by two of Mr.
Dixon's daughters ' • but the thieves contrived to take them
without disturbing the sleeping girls.
The aggregate quantity of grain and meal of all sorts
imported in 1859, amounted to 10,753,755 quarters, the
largest proportions being supplied by Denmark (1,320,571)
Prussia 0,364,694) ; Russia—(northern ports 343,124,
ports within the Black Sea) 577,633) ; France (1,025,009);
and the United States of America (1,834,000).
The liberal Anti-State Church party in Bristol have
intimated to Mr. J. E. Lunnell that they think he had
better retire from the bench of magistrates because he, a
dissenter, has signed some church-rate summonses. Mr.
Lunnell has publicly stated that he does not intend to
comply.

One of the chimneys of Mr. Edgeley's dwelling house,
at Westmains, near Lauder, was on fire on Saturday
week, and some of the sparks were carried by the wind on
to the neighbouring cattle sheds. The thatch instantly
ignited, and the flames speedily consumed four sheds, in
which 27 ewes, 50 lambs, and a sow perished.
AWFULLY SUDDEN DEATH.-011 Thursday, the 4th
inst., as Mr. Dickinson, farmer, of Quernmore, was
superintending some thrashing operations in his barn,
he reeled suddenly to the ground, without having pre-
viously exhibited the least symptom of indisposition, and
instantly expired.
KNIGHTHOOD OF THE MAYORS.—We believe it is now
no longer a matter of doubt that ten of the leading
mayors, 'who were present at the late banquet, will be
knighted, in consideration of the aid they have given to
the projected Exhibition of All Nations. Foremost in the
list will be the chief magistrate of Bristol.
The payment of the quarterly dividends is already
adding to the glut of money in the metropolis, which is
rather earlier than usual. All the banks connected
with the country districts continue to increase their
surplusses for the present, there being a complete
paralysis pervading the agricultural classes.

- THE POISONING AT STOW.—There is every reason to
believe that this melancholy event was entirely accidental
—that the poison (arsenic, of which Mr. Page used a
quantity for sheep-washing, &c.) was laid in a closet in
the kitchen, where the tea things used to stand, and thus
became, probably, mixed with the sugar, the packet being
disturbed in looking for something else. A packet of
arsenic, which Mr. Page's shepherd had given to his
master in October, was found in this closet. Providen-
tially there have been no more deaths.
MURDER THROUGH JEALOUSY.—At Sudbury, on
Saturday week, a man, named Charles Piper, was fatally
stabbed by another man, named John Agar, a friend of
the deceased. The parties, along with others, had been
at their club-room, and on leaving they fell into company
with some young women, to one of whom Agar was pay-
ing his addresses. In walking along, Piper placed his
arm around the female, which so enraged Agar that he
drew a knife and thrust it into Piper's bowels, which
caused almost instant death. Agar has been committed
for trial on the capital charge.

THE TEETH.—how Oftel7do we find the human face

ments, and the breath made disagrees o companions
by non-attention to the teeth ! T gh perfect in their
structure and composition, to k them in a pure and
healthy state requires some li e trouhle ; and if those
who are blessed with well-fogged teeth knew how soon
decay steals into the mo h, making unsightly what
otherwise are delightful t admire, and designating un-
healthiness by the im rity of the breath, they would
spare no expense to ase away these fatal blemishes.
