EARLY CHERRIES.—In the garden of Mr. Kellie,
Auldgirth-bridge, there is a May Duke cherry tree, on
which may be seen ripe cherries, others fast approaching
to maturity, and, at the same time, branches in full
flower. Last season, Mr. Kellie had ripe cherries on the
same tree, a week earlier than this season.—Dumfries
Courier.

FATAL COLLIERY ACCIDENTS.—On Faturday week,
an explosion took place at the Mynyddnewdd colliery,
near Swansea. by which five colliers lost their lives.—
Yos,erday (Monday) week, another similar accident oc-
c:iered at Penydarran Mountain pits, where two men were
hurried into eternity. Neither of them were burnt, and
death apparently resulted from suffocation.
ISLE OF MAN.—James Grellier, Esq., late editor and
proprietor of the Manx. Sun, has obtained a verdict of
40s. and costs against Messrs. Penrice and Wallace, pro-
prietors of the Manx Liberal for a libel. The plaintiff
has appealed to the llouse of Keys against the smallness
of the damages, and the defendants have applied for a
trial.—The regatta in Douglas Bay is fixed for the
7 !, Sib of July.

Ft n ')a Saturday week, an alarming fire broke out
in ktich,t. :1-:d Brewery, Kilmarnock, the property of
George Paiton, Esq. The fire commenced at the malt.
kiln, and consumed the whole range of granaries and
malt store, containing about a £lOOO worth of malt and
barley ; besides destroyinz all the malt in operation on
the ground floor. The loss of grain, buildings, &c., might
be estimated at from £2OOO to £3OOO.

A STRANGE PLACE FOR A BIRD'S NEST.—In a gar-
den belonging to the Rev. W. Snowdon, rector of Swil-
lington. a few miles from this town, one of our feathered
songsters has actually built its nest in the hollow of the
pump. The nest rests upon the piston, and contains four
or five eggs; the rev. gentleman kindly allowing the poor
bird to r main an undisputed tenant of the singular situa-
tion.—Wokefield Journal.
On Sunday week, a serious affray took place at Shields
harbour between a party of Italian seamen and some po-
licemen, arising out of one of the sailors being taken into
custody for a riot. He was rescued by bis companions;
but the policemen being reinforced, the prisoner and se-
veral of the sailors were scented and taken to bridewell.
During the riot some of the policemen received severe
stabs with stillitrs.

Sir John Ross, the Arctic voyager, appeared in the
Bankruptcy Court, last Wednesday, and obtained his
certificate without opposition. The bankrupt stated that
he had not been reinstated in office as consul at Stock-
holm, a Mr. Pringle having been appointed. He ex-
pressed his willingness to go thither for the benefit of his
creditors, and arrange to get some of his valuables, which
were in the hands of persons residing there.
BIRTIS EXTRAORDINARY.—A poor married woman,
of the name of Mason, residing near the Pound, Brom-
ley, was on Monday evening evening (May 18) safely de-
livered of fcur sons, all alive and well, by Mr. H. V.
Garnan, jun., of Bow-road, Middlesex. Tha interesting
little strangers have since been christened by the liev.
Mr. Boyle, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. It is gra-
tifying toadd that the mother and her sons are going on well.
Mr. Smith O'Brien still vegetates Diogenes-like in tub
—cellar we meen—where like the goose in the fable he
lays golden eggs for his master the Serjeant at-Arms, in
the shape of fees, the amount of which already incurred is
said to he enormous—more than sufficient to purchase an
Irish principality. But Mr. O'Brien started wi,h the de-
claration that he would pay no fees, and if he does not
choose to pay them, who will do it for him I be may pause
long enough for an answer.

Tne MINISTRY.—On Monday, in the Lords, a Minis-
terial measure, the Charitable Trusts Bill, introduced by
the Lord Charm.,llcr, was rejected by a majority of 1, and
on Tuesday night, in the Commons, the numbers were
equal on a motion relative to the Bridpoit election, and
ministers were saved only by the casting vote of the
speaker. On Friday night, the second reading of the
Faetory Bill was negatived by a mrjority of only ten, in a
house of neatly four hundred members, ministers mus-
tering all their force against it.
SEA GOING SPARROWS.—Last week, on the Aurora
leaving the Broomielaw for Belfast, a sparrow's nest was
discovered in the rigging, but the birds did not choose to
accompany their nest, on that occasion, to the Green Isle.
on the return of the vessel, however, the sparrows again
visited their former abode, which had not been disturbed
by the voyage, and deposited an e g in it, which attached
them so much to it, that they valorously left their native
land, and sailed with the Aurora for lreland.—Glusgow
Chronicle. _ . .

M U RDEA.—Nine weeks ago several Irishmen created a
disturbance in New-street, Wakefield, by parading the
street armed with sticks and pokers. apparently deter-
mined to murder some one. In their course they met
with a man named Harry Skelton, accompanied by three
men from Stanley, whom they attacked and beat very
severely, especially Skelton, who lingered until Wednes-
day, when he died from the wounds he had received. At
the inquest a verdict was returned of "Wilful Murder
against John Sepiron end others at present unknown."

THE CORN BILL IN THE. HOUSE OE LORDS.—The or-
ganisation of the country party opposition in the House
of L'trds has been, we believe, completed. The number
of peers aelually pledged against the Corn Bill is said to
be 170; these, it is confidently expected, will be rein`orred
to about 210. The number believed to be committed to
the minister is stated 156; ten of the bishops we regret to
say are included in this nureb,r. A greater number of the
right rev. lords, however, will certainly oppose the bill ;
the opinions, or rather, the probable votes, of five or six
prelates are still unknown.—Standard.
On Tuesday, Mr. Pullen, the auctioneer, sold by pub-
lic auction the Church of St. Benet Fink, Threadneedle-
street, the interior fittings of which wt re some time since
similarly disposed of. The church was erected by Sir C.
Wren, in 1673, and is to be removed for the purpose of
forming the approaches to the Royal Exchange. The six
stone columns with carved capitals, placed along the two
sides of the building, and surporting the roof, realised
£ll 18s. 6d. ; and the altar windows at the east end, hav-
ing in the centre a coat of arms iu stained glass, with the
date 1695, brought £2.
At the Mansion House, on Saturday, a poor girl named
Glynn, was brought up by one Bennet, charged with rub-
bing his family ; this man's daughter and nephew attend-
ing to substantiate the charge, but it came out the accused
had been cruelly seduced by the nephew, and she informed
the magistrate (Alderman Gibbs) to their faces that they
were worthless characters, the former, as she said, keep-
ing a vile house and the daughter superintending it, and
that this trumped up charge was only a device to get rid
of her. The complainants cut a sorry figure, and the
worthy Alderman disnaissod the charge.
DREADFUL SHIPWRFCRS.—On Wednesday last, two
shipwrecks occurred off Harwich, in which fifteen or twenty
persons have perished. One of the vessels lost is the Alert,
of Whitby, Eskdale, master, bound from Oporto to Lon-
don. At ten o'clock on Tuesday night she struck on the
Long Sand, and capsized at six on the following morning.
The master and five others saved themselves in the boar,
but seven passengers and two seamen were drowned. The
other vessel, name unknown, but apparently of Danish
buld, and laden with oats, was wrecked on the Gut.fleet.
It is found that the whole of her crew are lost.
POTATO DISEASE.—As a proof that there is no
natural disease in potatoes, but that the visitation of last
year arose from the damp sta e of the weather and the
hoar frost, -we may mention the results of an experiment
tried by the gardener to Robert Wrigh;., E-q , a Castle
Head, near Windermere. He took a quantity of potatoes
in a very bad state, cut out the worst parts, and planted

up quite strong, and produced an excellent crop, perfectly
sound and abundant in quantity. They were of the Ash-
leaf kidney description. This quite falsifies the assertion

3e disease had been api,roiching for years

On Saturday a curious case occurred in the Court of
Bankruptcy, in an opposition to a country bankrupt. It
appeared the solicitor to the ast.ignees was unAle to leave
Southampton, and sent uo the grounds of opposition
through the medium of the electric telegraph. It was

reduced into writing at the Nit,e Ehn Jati;,o, end for-
warded by exprt-Es to Mr. Smith, of Serjeant's-it,n, who
attended before the commissioner and read the corothu-

nication, and the case was adj,}urntd

SMOKING IN LONDON.—The number of tobacco pipes
used in London last year was 364.600 gross, 52,416,000

pipes ; it requires 300 men, each man making 20 gross
four dozen per week. for one year, to make them, the
cost of which is £46,950. The average length of these
pipes is twelve and a half niches, and if laid down in a
horizontal position, end to end together, they would reach
to the extent of 10,340 miles 16+3 yards ; if tht y were
piled one ahove another perpendicularly, they would
reach 135.138 times as high as St. Paul's ; they would
weigh 1137 tons 10 cwt., and it would rtquire 104 tons
9 cat. 31 lite. of tobacco to fill them.
Hors —We had about 160 pockets of hops weighed at
the public scales on Saturday, which realised a small ad-
vance upon the rates of the previous week. There were
also some considerable transactions between merchants
and dealers ; and upon the whole the market was lively,
with a prospect of advancing rates. The duty is set at
£lB,OOO. and for the kingdom £170,000 is named. Pre-
sent prices :-1845, £4 10s. to £7, choice, £7 104. ; 1844,
£5 to £6 6d., choice, £6 15s. ; old hops, £2 ss. to £5,
choice, £5 12s. per cwt. The reports from all parts of the
plantations represent the trine as growing most luxuri-
antly, and at present there is no attack of fly to cause any
apprehension of injury to the crop.—Worcester Journal.
THE DEBATE IN THE LORDS.-With regard to the
duration of the debate in the Lords on the second reading

of the corn bill, which would commence last night, the
usually well•infortned London correspondent of the Dub-
lin Evening Mail says,--" The hill, as stated a fortrught
since would be the case, is to be read a second time on
Monday next. It is said that the debate will last for se-
veral nights. The House of Peers never sit on Wednes-
day, and the Restoration of King Charles (always kept as
a holiday) falls on Friday. It is, therefore. possible that
the debate may go over the Whitsuntide holidays—in fact,
such must be the case if tie protectionists choose to pro-
long the discussion. But lam biiund to tell you that it is
also said that Lord Stanley's purpose is to close the de-
base on Tuesday night, and that several peers are remain-
ing in town, and some coming over from Ireland under
that itrqression." _ .

VERY STRANGE IF TRUE.—John D;pby, a cottager,
of Buxton, in Norfolk, and the grower of fonr crops if
pntmtoe, in one year, in a letter to the Norinlk Chronicle,
will gather
produce the

fine-t p ,tato or potatoes in quality that ever were grown.
One quart of these berth s will produce as much as a
bus` el of our common po ato. T-ese berries sr, nf a
small sub-tarce, and are to he planted whole. Thee
must go through a regular process in the course of the
winter. which is scarcely any trouble, and of no expense.
I now have in my possession a quantity of potatoes raised
from these berries last year, and it i% my intention to grow
crop after crop this year, until the fourth crop. The size
of the potatoes raised from the berry the first year are
about that of a duck egg. The berries are so numerous
that all England can bes upplied.

THE CDT CURIOUS.—A funny recontre took place in
Palace-yard, the other day. Dan'O'Connell was wending
his weary steps to the house, along the pavement in front
of Canning's monument, and Lord Brougham was coming
in the opposite direction, on the same pavement. There
was no escape. Dan, seeing who was approaching, turned
up his nose a. little m )re than usual ; Lord Brougham
seemed to think fora second, and deliberately "bonnetted"
himself, that is, beat his hat fairly over his eyes, and ran
past O'Connell as if he were bewitched. O'Connell
laughed heartily, which was heard by Lord Brougham,
who afterwards complained of the " rudcuess."—Corres-
pondent of the Chronicle.
MESMERISM.—THE £lOO NOTE.—The six months
during which the .E,lOO was to lie in the Messrs. Ball's
bank, Dublin, to become the property of any clairvoyant
who should read the number, date, &c., of the note with-
out breaking the envelope, expired on the 18th April,
when the envelope was opened in the presence of persons
connected with the bank. The note proved to be a
printed cheque (No. 1.), is,ued by the house of Messrs.
Ball and Co., for £lOO, payable to (Edipus or hearer, and
dated the Ist of October,- 1845. The English words
(written on a separate piece of paper) were, "To CEdipus
alone." To most people the above fact will be conclu-
sive on the subject of the alleged faculty called clairvoy-
ance.

THE BURDENS ON LAND.—The committee appointed
by the House of Lords in the early part of the session to
inquire into the peculisr burdens, if any, which land has
to bear, have just presented their report. They recom-
mend an improvement of the law of real property ; that
counties and boroughs should be exempt from the portions
of expense which they bear for criminal prosecutions and
maintenance of prisoner', ; that owners of houses under
the value of £lO shall be made liable for the rates at which
they are assessed ; that the expense of supporting pauper
lunatics shall be borne by the public generally, as well as
some branches of the expenditure for the maintenance
and relief of the poor; that the militia rate periodically
cast upon the land shall be borne by government ; and
that the experiments for testing the process of malting
barley for the purpose of fattening cattle shall he repeated,
with the co-operation of persons of acknowledged skill in
agriculture.
THE i{OPE-MAKING TRADE.—We understand that a
bill has been brought up before the House of Commons,
for the purpose of exempting the rope-making trade from
the Factory Act, on the ground that the business is con-
ducive to the health of the workers; and the using of
steam or water power on• the premises is the only reason
assigned by the inspectors for placing rope-works under
this act. Also, that those roperies where manual labour
or horses are employed do not come under its meaning,
although manufacturing the same material, and on a simi-
lar principle. The petition also sets forth the injustice of
the private manufacturers being placed under the act ;
while the dock-yards at Chatham and otherwise, although
equally harsh, are exempt from its operation. A deputa-
tion from London. Liverpool, the Clyde, and Leith, had
an interview with Sir James Graham, on the subject, who
was understood to say that government would not oppose
the passing of the hill.
FATAL EFFECTS OF JESTING.—OH Friday. an inquest
was held at Lincoln, touching the death of Sarah Tustin,
aged 28, who had died from the eff-cts of taking oil of
vitriol. She had been cook at the Lincoln Asylum, and
left there on Tuesday, having hired herself for the next
year (after the usual May Day holidays) as conk in the
family of a respectalde solicitor in that city. It had been
arranged that she was io hate the company of her suitor,
a young man named Earn,haw, for the holidays, and she
went to the house of his sister on Niaud's Hill. On Wed-
nesday morning Earnshaw was prevented from going to

Lincoln, and a fellow -servant of his, who had accompanied
his waster to Lincoln fat stock market, had the crue!ty
and falsehood to tell her that she need not expect Earn-
shaw, as he was gone to spe.id his holidays at Boston with
another young woman. She immediately procured a quan-
tity of oil of vitriol, under pretence that it was for cleaning
brass utensils, and swallowed about an ounce and a half.
A surgeon was promptly called in, but medical aid was
vain, and she died the following night. Not long after
committing the rash act, Earnshaw arrived at his sister's
house, for the purpose of spending his holidays in the
company of the deceased, and found her in that dreadful
state which the burning acid would cause. The jury re-
turned a verdict of "Temporary insanity."—Doncaster
Gazette. _ _ _

CONSERVATISM AND RomANtsm.--One thing is plain
to the most cursory observation—the :tau to neyociale
with the Pope of RI me is made safe and ea,v, which by
our "rugged" ancestors was utterly blocked up and pro-

hibited. The Lord Chancellor of England who is a "con-
servative"! by the way—talks of the right and the pro-
priety of Roman Catholic subjects of the crown of Eng-
land `• moderalf ly and t(mperatelp maintaining the
see of Rome in matters spiritual" I 1 This, he declares,
cannot be considered any offence against the ,:onstitution
of England. It was become impossible to consider such
conduct to be any constitutional offence. Such a question
as the Pope's supremacy may, it seems, be "mooted" in
the present state of the law; and it also appears that the
supremacy of the' crown of England stands equally firm

on the ground of the common law, as if it were bolstered
up by a hundred statutes. But further, it appears. from
Lord Brougham's and other speeches, that the Pope's
supremacy is "a drtam, a fiction, a fraud, an impmture.
a nullity," and soforth; so that there is no occirion for
any act to declare or maintain either the supremacy of the
crown of England or the nullity and nonsense of the
supremacy of the Pope; though "moderately and tem-
p-7.0(4y' —that'a the phrase—papists !nay "moot" the

There was a great uproar one night last week at till
Opera, caused by the absence, on the plea of indisposition

assailed with mock salutations and tremendous hissing.
An occupant of the stalls called out "No Perrot." with
stentorian lungs, at which the feelings of the inventor of
the "pas de fascination" were so wounded that he lOst
his presence of mind, and he addressed the audience in
French, reproaching them for their ingratitude after he
had done his " possible" on their behalf, then tore his
hair in a rage, and rushed off the stage. This incident
stopped the ballet, and the uproar for " Lumley" was re-
newed. At this stage a diversion was afforded by a tre-
mendous outcry from the " omnibus box," a•kine " where
is Carlotta Grisi ?" but no reply was made to this query.
At last, M. St. Leon, the husband of Cerito, came for-
ward, and spoke in French, beginning. with the words
" Respectable public," which immediately commanded
attention. He assured the audience that medical men had
stated that his wife was incapable of fnllfillir.g her duties
on that evening. The uproar was not quelled till Lucile
Grab') made a pantomimic appeal to the gallantry of the
rioters by clasping her hands at the stage lamps, and the
emente continued with more or less force until the fall of
the curtain.

SIR R. PEEL AND HIS PORTRAIT PAINTERS.—We
have been amused with the different portraits which ex-
cited Protectionist politicians have recently drawn of Sir
R. Peel. Here are three samples :—Mr. D'l-raeli, in
his speech in the House of Commons on Friday night,
termed him " the burglar of other's intellects," described
his life as a " grelt appropriati.in clause," and declared that
" fr,im the days of the Conqueror down to the termination
of the last reign, you will find no statesman who has corn-
milted petty larceny on so great a scale." The Duke of
Richmond, in a similar strain, on Monday evening, ac-
cused the Premier in the House of Lords of political

cowardice and dishonesty, lending a sting to the accusa-
tion by regretting " the great distinction which some men
make between public and private honour." But the
editor of the Morning Herald, on Wednesday. put the
finishing touch to this painting in black. The Times
having, in its sportir•e phraseology, spoken of ''the ele-
phantine hide of the Premier's p litical conscience ;" the
former journalist declares the figure a mistake, for, says
he. the Premier " has not the hide of the elephant. 1-tE

there remains noshing more of which he can he accused.
AN F LOP EMENT.—Tne clandestine fight of MI,S Fanny
Wilkinson, of Gledhow Mount, near Leeds, with Mr.
J-shua Burton, Jun., on Monday night last, has been a
subj.-et upon which a great deal has been said and conjec-
tured in Leeds and the neighbourhood, during the last
few days. The young lady is highly respectable, being
the daughter of John Wilkinson, Esq.. one of our most
extensive and opulent flax spinners. The connexions of
Mr. Burton are also of very high standing, his father be-
ing a wool merchant doing a large business, and a bank
die ctor. The fair fugitive, we utideratand, is nineteen
years of age, and Mr. Burton is some few years her
senior. It is supposed that the young lady escaped from
her father's house very soon after midnight, accompanied
by a female attendant. Mr. Burton was of course near at
hand, and a carriage being in waiting in an adjacent road.
the party walked o'er one or two fields t.nd then reached
the vehicle. By means of this conveyance they travelled
rapidly to York, where they arrived sufficiently in time to
proceed northwards by a train to Neweas le, which leaves
the York station about five o'clock in the mot ning ; from
Newcastle, it is presumed, to Gren,a Green, the place so

note to that effect for his daughter, Mrs. Pestle, for that
purpose. It was considered necessary that the bodies of
three other persons should be taken up and examined;
and in order to allow time for this to be done, the inquest
was further adjourned. At the adjourned inquest a ver-
dict was returned, that there was no evidence to show how
the poison wd- administered.

PROTECTION ro BRITISH INDUSTRY.—A. special
general meeting of the various protection societies
throughout the kingdom was held on Thursday, at
Willis's Rooms, St. James's, London, for the purpose of
affording the tenant-farmers of Great Britain a further
opportunity of expressing their opinion on the commercial
policy of the government, and of offering a practical re-
futation of the statements which have been so indus-
triously circulated by their adversaries, that they have
become converts, or are reconciled to the free trade
measures of the minister. The chair was taken by the
Duke of Richmond, president of the Central Protection
Society. The large room, capable of holding 2000 persons,
as well as the passages leading to it, were crowded to ex-
cess by tenant-farmers and gentlemen interested in agri-
culture. Deputations were present from upwards of 200
country societies. The room having been found' much
too small to hold the number of agriculturists who flocked
from all parts of the country tc attend the meeting, a
large party of them ad ,pted the suggestion of the Duke
of Richmond, and adjourned to a lower room, where they
held a meeting under the presidency of the Duke of
Buckingham. We cannot give the speeches delivered at
these meetings, but we may quote with satisfaction one
announcement of the Duke of Richmond—" Lord Stanley
will he the leader in the House of Lords, and I will give
bail for his honesty as that leader." The meetings are
described by the Morning Herald as " the ' great, st fact'
of half a century." Lord George Bentinck and Mr.
D'lsraeli made excellent speeches on the occasion ;
and after the meeting had been addressed by agricul-
tural gentlemen from various countes, a scene .was
enacted, which was evidently copied from the theatre.
The favourites were called upon the stage. Lord G.
Bentinck came forward to address the meeting, and was
received with loud cheers. He was about to commence
his address:when the chairman suggested that D'lsraeli
also should stand forward. Mr. D'lbraeli accordingly

others, having come forward, the entire body of e. ntle-
men, formed a line in front of the platform. Lord George
Bentinck occupied the central and most prominent posi-
tion, about a step in advance of his colleagues, 'and
supported on his left by Mr. D'lsraeli. This arrange-
ment called forth the repeated cheery of the assembly.
