At St. Ives, last week, a young man, named Edwards, ac-
cidentally shot his sister dead, not knowing that the gun
which he presented at her in sport was loaded.

So great is the drought at present in the island of Wal-
cheren, that it has been found necessary to send a vessel to
Holland for a supply of water.

It is reported that Lady Caroline Towneley, sister to the
Earl of Sefton, has recently become a convert to the doctrines
of the Church of Rome, and made her first communion.
Early in the ensuing week, Lord Einlyn will be united to
Miss Cavendish, who, as maid of honour to her Majesty, re-
ceives the royal dowry of £lOOO on her wedding day.
The Rev. Edward St. Lawrence, the venerable Arch-
deacon of Ross, and son of the late Lord Bishop of Cork,
expired suddenly, in a fit of apoplexy, on Tuesday last.
John White, Esq., of Park Hall, Derbyshire, and of Sale,

ROYAL VISIT TO WARWICK.—It is expected that the
Queen and Prince Albert will visit the Earl of Warwick, at
his magnificent baronial residence, at the close of the season
in town.—Birmingham Advertiser.
A new pier has been begun by the London and Brighton
Railway Company in the western arm of Shoreham Harbour,
for the accommodation of steam vessels to and from France
and the Channel Isiands.—Brighton Gazette.
A female, of the name of Ann Greenwood, murdered her
infant child last week, at the village of Shelf, near Bradford.
She has been committed to York Castle for trial at the
assizes.

CAUTION.—The British barque Hincloo has been libelled,
and duly seized at New York, and the barque Science, of
Philadelphia, for bringing more passengers than allowed by
law.

Monday, the sth of September, is fixed upon for holding
Preston Guild. A committee of the council has been ap-
pointed for the purpose of celebrating it with the usual
magnificence.

An attempt was made on Friday to rob the house of the
widow of Daly, the murdered policeman. The thief, doubt-
less, supposed that the money subscribed for her, amounting
to £llO, was in her possession.
FATAL COAL PIT ACCIDENT.—On Monday forenoon, an
accident occurred in one of Mr. Thomas Case's coal mines,
called the Ross-bridge colliery, in Ince, near Wigan, by
which two boys lost their lives.

if rhubarb seed is not wanted it is a mere waste of the
powers of the plant to allow it to flower. For the same
reason asparagus should not be permitted to bear berries, nor
sea-kale flowers and seeds.

TOWN-CLERK FOR THE CITY OF LONDON.—The poll for
the election of town-clerk took place on Thursday morning.
The contest terminated at half-past three o'clock, when the
numbers were—Merewether, 106 ; Pritchard, SO ; majority
for Merewether, 26. The Lord Mayor declined voting.
During the week, from the 10th to the 16th inst. inclusive,
the number of passengers between France and England, who
embarked from and landed at Boulogne-sur-Mer, was 1034
of carriages 18, and horses 4. At Calais, the number during
the same period were, passengers 371, carriage 1.
We are glad to perceive, from the country journals and
other sources of information, that the recent seasonable rains
have been pretty general throughout the country, and that
the accounts from all quarters agree in anticipating the pro-
spect of an early, good, and abundant crop of almost all
things designed by Providence for the nourishment of our
fello w-creatures.

The Mauritius papers of the 18th of February, are quite
barren of news, and the Buenos Ayres papers of the 2nd
of April are very little better, as they only note the conti-
nuance of the exchange at 30. per paper dollar, and the
local stock at 60 to 65. There were 80 vessels in port at the
latest date. Her Majesty's frigate Viper had sailed for
Monte Video and Rio de Janeiro.

SHOCKING DEASH.—Last Monday evening, as a fisher-
man, named Salmon, was tanning some fishing nets, he ac-
cidentally fell into the tan tub, which was boiling at the
time ; another man who was with him was unable to get him
out, and a considerable time elapsed before the unfortunate
man was extricated. The sufferer expired in about six
hours. A coroner's jury, which sat on the body on the fol-
lowing day, returned a verdict of " Accidental death."—

Leeds paper.
SIIOCKING DEPRAVITY.—A wretched man named Cor-
coran, who by habits of vile profligacy became reduced from
comfortable circumstances to beggary, and was lately ad-
mitted into the Fermoy Workhouse, gave an instance on
Saturday last, of the uncontrollable ascendancy, which vice
long indulged, gains over human nature. This hoary mis-
creant, who is on the verge of SO years, was, on the day
above-named, discovered in the act of violating an infant
child only four years old !! ! He was instantly sent to Bride-
well, and on Monday brought up for examination before the
Fermoy bench of Magistrates, who, from the clear evidence
given of his guilt, had him committed for trial to the next
assizes.—Cork Paper.
THE CONFECTIONERY TRADE.—We regret to state, that
whatever hope may have been entertained as to the continu-
ance of this trade in Guernsey is now at an end, it having
been stated by the Earl of Ripon, the President of the
Board of Trade, to a gentleman who waited on him in Lon-
don, on Friday last, that this trade would he stopped on the
sth of next month (July), by the operation of the tariff,
which imposes a duty of 6d. a-pound on all foreign confec-
tionaries ; and the Guernsey confectionery comes under this
category, from being made of foreign materials. Confec-
tioneries intended for " exportation" may still be manufac-
tured in Guernsey, as at present; but we understand that
the export trade of these goods is not sufficiently extensive
to support the expense of separate establishments.—Guern-
sey paper.

On Sunday afternoon the county of Radnor was visited by
a storm of thunder, lightning, and rain, which has been most
destructive in its effects. The lightning is represented to
have been most terrific, while the rain, which came down in
torrents, and which was accompanied with hailstones of large
dimensions, poured down the mountains, and having col-
lected in the plains, entirely overflowed many hundred acres
of ground. Several farmers have lost a quantity of cattle.
In a field belonging to Mr. Lloyd, of Llandive-hall, fifteen
head of cattle had sheltered themselves under an oak tree in
the centre of the field, which was struck by the electric fluid,
when it was shivered to pieces, and all the beasts were struck
dead. The loss to the owner is about £3OO. Many fields
had the seed washed away, while a large quantity of grass
was broken by the hail.

STORM AND FATAL ACCIDENT AT NESSCLIFF.--At about
half-past seven o'clock on Monday evening the village of
Nesscliff was visited with a most tremendous thunder-storm ;
for about ten minutes the rain came down in torrents, wash-
ing large quantities of sand into the roads from the adjoining
hills ; many parts of the roads were knee-deep in sand, and
in some places almost impassable. A servant of Mr. Wall,
of Shotatton, (who had been working in the fields with a
horse and cart during the day,) on his return home at night,
proceeded to the cart-house for the purpose of putting the
cart under cover; whilst he was so engaged, a most terrific
clap of thunder was heard, which so startled the horse that
he suddenly sprang forward, and thereby crushed the poor
fellow so dreadfully between the cart-shaft and post, or wall,
that he was unable to speak afterwards. He expired soon
after the accident occurred.—Salopian Journal.

BETHNAL-GREEN CHURCHES.—The fourth of the ten
new churches proposed to be erected in the populous parish
of Bethnal-green is rapidly approaching completion, and will
be consecrated by the Lord Bishop of London so soon as the
necessary arrangements can be made. Many of the seats
will be free and unappropriated, and the others are to be let
at a price which will bring them within the means of the
tradesmen and artisans who reside in that neighbourhood.
Three years have elapsed since the Bishop of London issued
his proposals for ten additional churches, school-honses, and
parsonages in this vast parish ; £75,000 were required, and
£63,000 have been already subscribed. Three churches have
been consecrated, four more are in progress; eight sites out
of the ten have been procured, and the sum of £12,000 only
is now required to complete the work of giving churches,
clergymen, and schools, to a population of 74,000 souls, who
have been hitherto almost entirely destitute of all external
means of spiritual and moral improvement. The congrega-
tions of the churches already built are extremely large, and
the Sunday, daily, and infant schools are well attended. The
Principal and Fellows of Brasenose College, Oxford, patrons
of the rectory, have vested the perpetual patronage of eight
of the new churches in the Bishop of London, and have given
him the nomination to the remaining two.

THE CONVICTS FRANCIS AND COOPER.—The day fixed
by the sheriffs for the execution of the two culprits now
under sentence of death in Newgate is next Monday, the
4th July. The fact was communicated to them yesterday
morning by the chaplain of the prison, in presence of the
sheriffs and other authorities. Francis, who has been in a
very dejected state since his conviction, appeared much sur-
prised at the awful information, he having indulged in the
belief that the sentence would not be carried into effect.
On becoming a little more composed, he declared in the
most solemn manner to his attendants that he had no inten-
tion to do her Majesty the slightest injury, and that there
was nothing in the pistol but a little powder and a piece of
paper. The father of the miserable youth has petitioned the
throne for a commutation of the sentence. Francis has
also declared that his only motive for making the feint, as
he calls it, was, that he might gain an asylum where he would
be relieved from the harass and suffering attendant on
poverty. Although he suffers extreme mental anguish, his
bodily health does not appear to be at all affected. On the
intelligence being communicated to Cooper, that the day was
fixed upon when he was to die, he received the information
to all appearance as a matter of course. He has become
very humble, and conducts himself in a becoming manner.
He still remains in the infirmary, where he has been ever
since his committal to prison. He suffers a great deal from
his feet, in which the effects of the poison he took has
lodged.
DESPERATE ENCOUNTER WITH A BURGLAR, NEAR
BRADFORD.—CAPTDRE OF THE ROBBER.—The most daring
but 4-I,try we ever remember to have happened in this neigh-
b,elrhood, occurred on Sunday night last, and fortunately
ended in the capture of the thief, and for the most part the
defeat of his nefarious design. Mr. Joseph Bailey, waste
dealer, resides in Spring Row, Manningham, near Bradford ;
and, on the evening in question, retired to rest about ten
o'clock, having previously suspended his watch, according to
custom, over the bed-head. After being asleep for some time
he was awakened by hearing, as he thought, some one moving
itsakeingyes saw a man's hand
his watch. astbroeutothtehde
orvoeormdmahneddoinn othpeenaictitgoht.
With-
out saying a word, or making the slightest exclamation, he
sprung out of bed and seized the intruder by the collar. A
desperate struggle ensued, both being powerful men, and
pretty equally matched, until at length they came to the edge
of the chamber steps, when they both rolled to the bottom.
Although severely bruised in the descent, Bailey never re-
laxed his hold of the robber ; and the struggle was continued
with equal determination on both sides in the lower floor for
some minutes. At length they got out into the garden in
front of the house, when Bailey broke the silence, and by
came
not repeated cries alarmed two of the neighbours, who
uot in their undress, and assisted him to secure the thief.
In the space of a few minutes the constable was brought to
the spot, and effectually secured the prisoner by handcuffing
him. Seeingthi

who up to
lA, silence, exclaimed, " Well, it's a done job." The pri-
soner was now searched, and upon his person were found no
less than thirty-one skeleton keys, for opening cupboards,
desks, &c., two brace bits, one of which fitted a hole newly
made in the back door, and a dark lantern. The drawers in
every part of the house had been ransacked, and a number
of articles were packed up, ready to be conveyed away. The
watch was found on the chamber floor ; and a pocket con-
taining £3O in cash, wrapped up in a waistcoat. As some
things, but none of material value, were missing, it seems
more than probable the man had one or more accomplices.
Entrance had been effected through the window,one square
of which was broken, room for a hand was thus obtained, the
latch unfastened, and the sash gently raised. Having thus

GREAT FIRE.—On Tuesday_ morning last at one o'clock,

a fire broke out at the house of Mr. Taylor, a plumber and
glazier at Lambourne, Wilts, which spread with such fear.
ful rapidity that 13 houses were destroyed.

On Sunday evening last, from some cause not yet ascer-
tained, some of the extensive plantations of Sir G. Tapps
Gervis, Bart., near Poole, caught fire, and continued burn-
ing all the night, nearly 100 acres of fine young plantations

being consumed. -
In the village of Cucklington, near Bristol, a few days
since, some boys were throwing stones at each other, when
one of the party, the son of Mr. Cross, was struck on the
pit of the stomach, and killed instantaneously.

the sons of a man named Cahel, in the parish of Kilmichael,
county Clare, were killed by lightning.
The munificent sum of £lO,OOO has been collected in the

A. gentleman named M`Carthy, of Loughrea, swam across
the lake of that town, at the broadest part, a distance of
three miles, on Monday last—a feat almost unparalleled in
aquatics, since the famed one " o'er Helle's wave," in mo-
dern times accomplished by the late Lord Byron.
On Tuesday afternoon, two young gentlemen, sons of Jo-

seph, May, Esq., who were fishing in the river Test, near
Romsey, took shelter from a thunder storm under some trees,
when, melancholy to relate, the youngest, George Wilson
May, aged about fifteen, was struck by lightning and killed
on the spot.

Two BOYS DROWNED.—On Friday se'nnight several
youths took a boat without the liberty of the owner, and were
amusing themselves in the bay near Smallmouth sands,
coast of Dorset, when slime of their companions on shore (to
frighten them) told them the man belonging to the boat was
coming, on which two of them jumping out, were drowned.

A NEW FEATURE. IN COMMERCE.—On the 17th instant,
at ten o'clock in the forenoon, Messrs. Wade, Sons, and
Co., of Hull, received an order from a correspondent in
Birmingham, for between forty and fifty tons of deals ; the
whole were sent off by the Hull and Selby Railway, the same
afternoon, and reached Birmingham the following day, being
a saving in time of at least fourteen days over the usual
water conveyance.

THE PORT OF NEWCASTLE.—During the year ending
with November last, there were imported coastwise into this

port, 4,595 loads of Scotch timber, 21,832 dozen of pit props,
68,556 sacks of flour, and 76,109 qrs. of grain. The quan-
tity of foreign grain imported during the same period was—
of wheat, 122,122 qrs. ; barley, 18,290 qrs. ; oats, 7,309
qrs. ; rye, 5,955 qrs. ; pease, 9,069 qrs. ; beans, 4,226 qrs.
tares ; tares, 1,426 qrs. ; and of foreign flour, 613 barrels.
Prussia, Germany, and Denmark are the states whence these
imports were derived.

IMPORTANT TO THE CORN TRADE.—Since the printing

of the bill for the new tariff of duties on the 17th instant an
important relaxation has been introduced by the committee
of allowing corn in the bonding warehouses an allowance for
natural waste, viz.:—lf warehoused one and less than three
months—wheat, bariey, and rye, 11 per cent; oats, 21 per
cent. Three, and less than six months—wheat, barley, and
rye, 2 per cent. ; oats, 3 per cent. Six and less than twelve
months—wheat, barley, and rye, 21 per cent. ; oats, 41 per
cent. Twelve months and upwards—wheat, barley, and rye,
3 per cent. ; oats, 5 per cent. Except on Spanish wheat,
barley, and oats, and on wheat and barley kiln-dried abroad,
which are to have only half the above-mentioned allowances ;
and none is to be made on kiln-dried rye.
THE STRAWBERRY-HILL COLLECTION.—Among the loti
sold on Tuesday at the sale of the Strawberry-hill collection
of curiosities, was a copy of The Times newspaper, bearing
date January 25, 1793, with a black border encircling the
whole of the pages, as applying to the details of the execu-
tion of Louis XVI. contained therein. The following is a
literal copy of the first paragraph of the leader on the sub-
ject:—" The present moment of all others is the most
favourable for declaring war against France, and we have
pretty sure grounds for believing that it will be proposed in
parliament early next week. It has been perhaps a matter
of prudence and sound policy to delay this declaration to
the present moment, and we will venture to say that no war
was ever undertaken with the more general concurrence of
the people than that in which we are about to engage."
MOST MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT ON LANCASTER SANDS
—On Monday evening last an accident of a truly distress-
ing character occurred upon the Lancaster Sands. Two
persons were observed coming over the sands towards Hest
Bank, and when arrived within a short distance of the
breakwater they appeared to be in distress, the tide flowing
about them. On seeing this the good people at Hest Bank
rau down to the sands, and having procured a boat pushed
off to the help of the unfortunate men. Gestures were made
with a view of inducing the poor fellows to fall back (as the
sand banked higher in their rear) and wait for succour, but
either mistaking these instructions or being over anxious to
reach the boat, they made towards it and unhappily sank
amid deep waters never to rise again in life. One had
stripped off part of his apparel, in order, as we suppose, to
swim, but it does not appear that he was able. Search was
made, on the reflux of the tide, for the bodies, but they were
not found till next morning.
A letter was found in the
pockets of one of the men, addressed to some parties in Li-
verpool.—Lancaster Guardian.

A CHURCH BUILT IN A DAY.—The parishioners of
Rhynie, who had been denied by the lordly possessor of the
soil a rood of land on which to erect a tabernacle for the
worship of God, at length, recently, through the kindness of
Mr. H. L. Lumsden, secured a resting-place o❑ the confines
of the adjoining parish of Auchindoir. All that now re-
mained to be done Was to get the sanction of the General
Assembly ; and this was given in a way that marked the in-
dignation of that venerable body at oppression and its sym-
pathy with the oppressed. The 13th of June will be a day
long remembered at Rhynie. At one o'clock in the morning
a party in charge of thirty horses proceeded to the woods to
bring the timber that had been cut for the purpose. Others
repaired to the hills to fetch the stones that had been made
ready, and by the time the materials reached the appointed
site, a large company of masons and carpenters from the
parish of Rhynie and surrounding district had assembled.
Every one seemed animated with an ardour in the cause.
Their labour was gratuitous—their enthusiasm knew no
bounds. The erection rapidly proceeded, and by eight o'clock
in the evening a large, well-executed, and commodious
church was nearly prepared for the assembling of a congre-
gation. The work was altogether marvellous, and to none
was it more so than to those who had hitherto triumphed
over the parishioners of Rhynie. The server of interdicts
was upon the spot, but the interdict itself was wanting.—
Edinburgh Witness.

SUPPOSED WRECK OF THE PRESIDENT.—The papers far
and near are republishing a letter written by a gentleman at
Havannah, giving an account of a wreck encountered at sea
by a Spanish captain, in July, 1841, somewhere in the neigh-
bourhood of the Grand Banks. The Spanish captain went
on board the wreck, which is thus described :—He says it
must have been a very large vessel; and the things that first
attracted his attention were two large columns of wood (so
he called them), not very far apart, painted black about nine
feet from the bottom, and then white about three feet to
where they were burned off, and that there were marks of
fire also on the part left standing. These " columns" pro-
jecting above the rest of the wreck, had the appearance at a
distance of two small sails. He also saw on the bottom of
the vessel just under water, several very large timbers,
secured strongly together by iron clamps and braces of very
extraordinary size, and from these concluded that it was the
wreck of a large steamer, and that this bed was made to sup-
port the boilers. He also says, that the floor timbers of the
vessel were very heavy, some two feet square, as near as he
can remember, and very near together, not more than four
or five inches apart ; the ends of these, as well as the floor-
ing or ceiling in most places, were very much charred. The
head and stern were gone, at least the extreme parts, and he
could not tell how long she was originally, but he paced the
part remaining by stepping from one timber to another, and
thinks to the best of his recollection it was about 120 feet
long. He examined the wreck carefully to see if he could
find any paper or article by which to indentify her, but could
find nothing, and he tried to pry off a part of one of the iron
braces, but w ithout success. He further says, that the
wreck at the water's edge was about 35 to 40 feet wide, as
near as he can recollect, and that the copper on her bottom
was still in a good state of preservation. it is presumed
that this was the hull of the lost President ; but we entertain
no doubt, on the contrary, that it was the same wreck so
often seen and reported—not a steam-ship, and not the Presi-
dent. The conclusive proof that it was not the President is
afforded by the absence of all machinery, that could neither
burn nor in any way he separated from the hull so long as the
latter held together. It might be broken, and parts of it
might go overboard, but large portions would remain, even
were the hull to capsize. But there is other evidence also.
inches
apart. floor timbers .of the President were not four
apart. One of us was on board the President while she was
on the stocks, and saw the whole system of her construction.
The flooring was of solid oak with five kelsons, four of which,
were double and very large. Every piece of timber was se-
cured by iron braces and also with wooden trusses. Her
extreme length, over all, was 270 feet ; length on deck 215
feet ; breadth, inside of the guards, 41 feet. These dimen-
sions d o not at all agree with those reported by the Spanish
captain. —New York Gornmercial Advertiser.

MANCHESTER CORN

MARKET. JUNE 25

Since our last we have had showers almost daily, which, with
intervals of warm sun, have refreshed vegetation and removed the
apprehension of injury, especially to the Spring crops, which a
longer continuance of drought would have occasioned. The trade
in the interval has been flat, and sales of each article have been
practicable only in retail quantities for present consumption. The
arrivals of foreign Wheat to Liverpool are very heavy, as will be
seen on reference to the list of imports ; of other articles they arc
moderate. Duties on Wheat, Oats, and Rye declined one step
yesterday, with a chance of a further reduction upon Wheat next
week. The Liverpool market yesterday was quite as firm as could
be expected, considering the pressure occasioned by the heavy
arrival of foreign Wheat. At Wakefield, also, the value of English
Wheat underwent little alteration. At this day's market Wheat
and Flour met a slow sale ; best qualities of each nearly support-
ing the rates of our last, while inferior descriptions are offered on
rather lower terms. In Oats and Oatmeal our quotations must be
regarded as almost nominal; and the business doing in either is of
the most trifling character, 30s being an outside quotation for good
runs of Meal, and 3s 3d to 3s 4d per bushel for Oats. Beans sell
slowly, and the turn cheaper. Malt without alteration.

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 24

Duties for the ensuing week are reduced on Foreign W heat
to 10s., on Oats to Gs., on Rye to 9s. 6d. per quarter, on
Flour to 6s. per barrel, and on Colonial Rye to ls. per quar-
ter ; remaining upon all other produce, both Foreign and
Colonial, the same as last week. _ .

The arrivals of English, Irish, and Foreign Wheat into
this port, within the last three days, are unusually abundant,
forming together 31,589 quarters, with a fair quantity of
Flour, and a moderate supply of Oats, but scarcely any
Grain of other descriptions, and no Oatmeal whatever during
that period.
In consequence of the foregoing large import of Wheat,
the continuance of showery weather, the daily improving
state of all the growing crops, the absence of speculative
operations, and moderate sales only to consumers, the trade
here was rather inactive between Tuesday and to-day ; im-
pressed, however, with the opinion that the principal bulk
of the supplies from the Mediterranean are already on hand,
holders evinced a tolerable degree of firmness, and refusing
to submit to lower terms, the general currency of our last
circular remained unvaried.
At our market this morning, upon a moderate demand for
Wheat from our local millers, and some parcels having been
taken by country dealers, importers continued to adhere
steadily to the current rates orruesday, which, for all good
and fair qualities especially, were fully maintained.
Flour was in limited request, and the turn cheaper ; but
not sufficiently so to reduce our quotations.
Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, appeared to excite very
little notice, and each may be considered a shade lower in
value.
Oats, the holders of which showing more urgent desire to
realize than of late, have declined ld to 2d per (nibs, and
few buyers appear at this abatement.—Oatmeal, being much
neglected to day, was nominally 6d to is cheaper.
In the bonded market, the only sales reported since Tues-
day are 1202 qrs. of Egyptian Beans, at 225. per qr., and
500 barrels of Orleans Flour, at 28s. per barrel.
