JRIOUS DISCOVERY OF ORGANIC REMAINS

The workmen

ged in one of the quarries on Durdham
;ht since, came upon a number of bones

'f the fissures of the rock, at

about 30 feet below the surface. This had been going on for
some time, and a boy had collected some of the remains, and
sold them as old bones, before the circumstance came to the
knowledge of some parties connected with the Philosophic
Institution ; but it having come to the ears of the committee,
they voted a small sum of money to work that part of the
quarry, in order to ascertain whether a cavern existed there
or not, and also to collect such remains as might fall in the
way in the progress of the work. Accordingly an excavation
was made in the fissure, about 10 feet deep, or 40 feet from
the surf In tb •rse of

The principle of this Company is that of attaching all
importers and Exporters,by a Division of the Profits among
them, after payment of the Dividends, thus creating a com-
munity of Interests between the Shippers and Shareholders,
principle which will best guarantee to its Proprietors—
certainty of their Dividends, and to Shippers of all descrip-
tions of Goods and Live Stock the having a well-supported
Establishment of first-class Steamers, and the lowest rate of
freight compatible with due attention to their maintenance.

the family, at the last moment, that the arrangements which
had been previously made for the procession of the funeral

so sudden, and the grief of the family so great, that several
of its members were unable to attend, and this will at once

account for their absence. The poignancy of Sir Rowland
Hill (we retain that title to avoid confusion) was excessive
since the death of his uncle, and this further visitation quite
unmanned him, and heightened the anguish he had previ-

part of the time the Leigu
and showed increase,

but these slight

additions cannot explain such a
monstrous increase of expenditure. Where, then, has the
money gone ? What public proceedings of the Leaue can
account for a tithe of the expenditure ? We know not—but
we know, as everybody knows, that within the specified
period there happened two public events in which the League
took a great interest—the general election in 1841, and the
general turn-out in 1842—and until the Leauge shall give
(which it never has done since January, 1840) some detailed
account of its expenditure, we shall be justified in suspecting
that the general election (to say nothing of some separate
contests since) and the general turn-out have had something
to do with the disappearance of the £90,000.

A SLAP AT THE LEAGUE.—The following letter was sent
by Earl Fitzwilliam, in reply to an invitation to attend the
Leeds Anti-Corn-Law Soiree:—

" Milton, December 5, 1842.
" My dear Sir,—Saturday having been entirely occupied
ith public business, this is the first opportunity I have had
__.g your letter, and of expressing how much I feel
,noured by the invitation to the intended meeting, which I
would certainly have attended if I had been at Wentworth.
You are probably aware that I consider corn as fit as any
other article of import to contribute to the national revenue,
by a uniform duty levied for that purpose ; but this is per-
fectly consistent (and is so considered by foreign countries)
with the most perfect freedom of trade. Such a toll is no
more in contravention of free trade than the tolls or rates
paid by navigators, or passengers to the Aire and Calder
Navigation, or to the North Midland Railway. It is, in
truth, a payment in precisely the same character, viz., for
the maintenance of the establishment, and for the interest of
the debt of the community. I insist the more strongly upon
this, because I observe that some persons hold that there is

of answerin

ling peculiar about corn which gives it a claim to ex

contributions to public revenue

This I con-

to suppose that

'yep ought

to other purposes, and must be equally guarded agains_.
.1 advert to it, because I know that last autumn (I mean
1841), Leeds was not quite prepared to adopt the principles
of free trade throughout, and we also know that, at Lord
. I

.‘..-mection, a Mr. Brookes herd that certain
branches of manufacture could not do without protection,
Ind thereby gave Lord Stanley a great triumph. Now, all
-se reservations must be cast away, and the principle acted
"ithout exception, and I trust that this will be the tone
if it is not, the meeting will do more harm than
,00d ; but I hope all will be well.
" I beg to be believed yours faithfully,
FITZWILLIAM."
We would have travelled to Leeds only to see the long
faces of the league at the reading of this rebuff from such a
quarter.

SINGING FOR THE MILLION

'T will be a most harmonious state of things
When every one, instead of speaking, sings.
A dun will give a musical rat-tat,
And at his charges should the debtor carp,
The latter in refusing will be flat,
The former in demanding will be sharp.
The lawyer, though with music in his breast,
May leave his client to a prison's fate,
Where he may find, at least, a few bars' rest,
Unless he pays his bill in time, six eight.
Music already many comprehend,
To them its terms are practically known :
Andante, when they act to serve a friend ;
Allegro, when the profit is their own.
The singing for the million must, indeed,
Be in accordance with the Chartist's choice ;
For if the proposition should succeed,
All in the country then would have a voice.

beautiful songs, ballads, glees, and indeed

every description of musical composition which Mr. George
Hargreaves has published, entitle him to a high rank in the list
of English cor..posers, and that his works are appreciated by
all who possess taste and knowledge of music, we need not
tell our readers. In the above he has added to his long list

of works, another gem, and neither he: nor the poet will hise
a jot of their reputation in its publication. Of Charles
Swain as a poet, the success of his charming poem, " The
Mind" will speak at once of his ability; and we look upon
that man as totally unfit for decent society who cannot, in

reading his writings, declare that in them there is "a grace
beyond the reach of art." In " When our Friends are
