A Corwin ENCLOSED WITHIN A SToNc.—We have
!reticently' bad occasion to notice the phenomena of
frogs and toads being found within the trunks of trees,
and even in rocks; and have now to record • curiosity
toesewhat similar of a Rheil.fisb. We have in our Fos-
...ohms stone (with which we have been favoured by
tl:e gard..ner of the Rev. Mr. Yates, Tnvteth Park,)
A:hich is coploqsly perforated with small holes, in
wltich snoll shells of fishes, of various kinds, are en-
closed. One of these holes, goes straight through the
:stew, is perfectly round, and has evidently contained
a scoop fish, the shell being. incorporated with the
„atone. flue the most remarkable is a cockle-shell quite
p^rfert, and apparently an inch in diameter, seen in
tht venue of the stone from an oblong hole not half an
i•:c1) in length. '[hi: shell, on the stone being shaken
vans end shuts as if it still contained the
hin lving iwasn-
habitant, rhich perhaps many years ago, wit
set small, was immured, and probably existed, within
its stony prison, imbibing its food through the aper-
tei,, until the shell (which has evidently accomudated
• i;self to the shape of the hole) could no longer increase
it size. The stone being accidentally broken, since
%.., rc"eured it, the remains of a worm are also dis-
. closed : the thitin is nearly perfect ; and it has described
tl:ruusb Ote.tnittere of the stone, various cvolutioils,
.whiela .irft IA A. appearance of a long and raveled
nett
/breed. This gives assurance that these shells Were

Iditiltriti, namely, whether they have, by the common

star it tot that rupee on foot and with bones and

pleas. At the trial before Mr. Justice Bayley, at the

verdict was found for the plaintiff on some of the
issues, anti for the defeadant on the rest, subject to
the opinion of this Came upon a case, which stated
its facts :—The question is point of law, for the
opinion of the Court, was, whether there was any such
common law right; the substantial point between the
parties, however, being whether the owners of the
hotel shall or shall not pay the plaintiff some conside-
ration for using bathing machines on the shore.
The COURT said. that as the case was of very great

COTTON.—The Cottonmarket has been without in-
terest ; parcels have been offered more freely, but with-
ut inducing the buyers to come forward.

SUGAR.—The market last week continued very in-
diff:rently supplied with good Sugars; the parcels of
the newly arrived brought forward met a ready sale at
full prices.—The market this morning remains in the
cattle languid state; the supply of new Sugars is not so
considerable as to induce the buyers to come and pur-
clia.e freely ; no alteration whatever in Ole prices can
Il be vated. The Refined market was very heavy last
week, and as the holders evinced a greater disposicti ti
oon
to sell, prices Is. lower were stibtuitted to; the redun,
however, had the effect of facilitating sales ; the pur-
chases reported *ere considerable. The accounts from
Ilamburgh state the markets fur Refined goods in a very
depressed state ; the unfavourable intelligence had an
effect npon the Refined goods this morally.; the n.arket
is exceedingly heavy, and purchases can be made at lower
prices than last week.
COFFEF..—The qnantity of Coffee brought forward
to ptshlic sale last week, 3sl casks and 207$ bags; in
the early part of the week the demand cont
ti
inued brisk
and eat-tisive, but from the large parcels connually
brought forward, the request towards the close of the
week gave way, and foe a large parcel of St. Domingo,
wily l Iss. Sid. was offered; the isultier., however, would
not sell under I 175.; and a pareel of good ordinary co-
loury was reported to he dirsed of by private contract,
at that price : Porto Rico Coffee gave way 2s. per cwt.;
good ordinary pale sold I His. a 117 s. line ordinary 120 s.
The Coffee market to-day may be states' uncommonly
heavy, and, notwithstanding the extensive quantity
brought forward, the lots sold are not sufficient to con•
stititte a market price ; the good middling Jamaica may
may he stated 21. a 3s. lower, hut, with this exception,
Coiree is nominally the same as last week, hut the market
is excl•edingly heave.
RUM, BRASOV, and lIOI.II.ANDS.—The Rom
market has been in a very depressed state for several
weeks. Today the market looks more gloomy than fur
a length of time past, one of the first houses in the spirit
trade having yesterday suspended their payments ; un-
til it is ascertained what quantity of Rum and Brandy
will be thrown upon the market by this event, our
quotations must be considered entirely nominal.
IRISII PROVISIONS. /So.—There is little alteration
to notice in the prices of Beef or Pork.—Foreign But-
ters must be stated at a considerable decline; no altera-
tion in the Irish descriptions.
II DI P, FLAX, and TA LlLOW.—There is little va-
riation in the prices of Foreign Tallow ; the principal
holders continue firm, and refuse to sell at the present
prices.—ln Hemp or fiax there is little variation.—The
last accounts from St. Petersburgh state the exchange
had risen considerably, it was a fraction above 98d.
TORACCO.—The purchases of Tobacco continue
confined to inconsiderable parcels of Virginia, for the
home trade, at 38s1. a 44. per lb.
OlLS.—There is little doing in Greenland Oil, either
forparcels here or for arrival • for c:agoes to arrive the
trade do not otter above•23/.—'South Sea is dull ; further
arrivals are daily expected.—Seed Oils are dull, and ra-
ther lower.

Scßnot, or Ants, FOR vim nrvit:a Ence.ivioN
or macHANics.—Ao association has been formed in
Etlinitr,b, under the anspires of Dr. Brewster, Pro
lessor Pißans, &e., for the purl use of enabling indus-
trious tradesmen to become win:tinted %%jib such of
the principles of mechanics, ellynaistry, and other
branches of science, a' are of practical application in
their several trades. It is intended that there shall
be Lectures upon Practical Mechanics and Practical
Chymistry, to be delivered twice a week, from S to 9
o'cloctc in the evening, front October to April. It is
also intended, that there shall be a collection of mo-
del' and instruments, and a library of hook' on me-
chanics and chymistry, and theft applicati in to the
arts, and on all branches of natural and physical
science, which shall circulate ant mg those who at-
tend the lectures, and be lent nut thronghoiit she whole
year ; and it is contemplated, if the funds permit,
to give, besides, instruction in mechanical and archi-
tectut al drawing.
MEETING sr BILLINCSII l'rE Waau.—lt having
been intimated by Sir W. Leighton that he inttnds to
resign his gown a' Alderman of Billingsgate Ward, a
meeting of the inhabitants was held yesterday at
Buteher'shall, for the ptirp.ote of considering of a
roper person to put in nomination to succeed him.
Mr. T. Hearsay proposed Mr. Anthony Brown, who
was seconded by Mr. B. Power. Mr. Piper said, he
could have wished to have hail Mr. Favell for his
Alderman ; hut, under present cirentostances, he should
not oppos:. Mr. Brown. After some further observa-
tions, the question was put and carried unanimonsly.

day was occupied in bearing the arguments of five
counsel upon the admissibility of votes. In this con-
test the ground is disputed inch by inch. There are
not more than about St) voters in this Ward. At the
close of the poll yesterday, the numbers were for Mr.
