"The political news is of some interest, if of no
great importance. The Commercial News from Eng
land, is, of course, always important to the United
States. The cotton market has been rather dull
since the sailing OF the Hbernia through there has
been little alteration in prices The price of provis-
ions continues very low especially of grain The price
OF money in the London market is as low as ever
The export of manufactured goods from England has
been very extensive, and there was a good demand
for most descriptions of goods.
The large amount Of specie which has been ex-
ported from England to the United States began to
command some attention The Continental Ex-
changes WERE however, so much in favor of England
as to more than fill up the gap caused by the export
to America

Inc following account ola Western wild Pigeon
koost, is from the Dubuque Miners Express:
"'lhere is an immense Pigeon Roost in the forks of
the Maquoketu in Jackson county, such has never
been seen in this country before. 1t is three miles
long and half a mile in width There can be no
estimate made of their numbers Their roosting
places are about mile distant from their nests and
feeding places, being three in number, and each one
covering section of land; and in passing to and iro
they darken the air with their number; break down
young trees with their weight; and hundreds ar killed
by getting entangled in the falling limbs and branch
es The people kill them with clubs land their noise
is so loud that when gun is fred amongst them, the
report cannot be heard ;and person can stand in one
place and shoot all day, the birds returning as soon
as you can load They are building their nests,
and the people are alarmed, lest they may destroy
their crops.''

cry was over, sentinel placed to guard the
bodies; when night came on he observed tho sentinel

with the poor unfortunate man, who brought
back, and Immediately shot a second time"

WHtery Potatoes Watery potatoes or those in
which carbon does not abound are always deficient
in nutrtve qualities, which depend on the presence
Of carbon. The latter cannot exist in lust propor-
ton independently of proper light and heat. Hence
potatoes grown in orchard are never good; the
light and OXYGEN which should act upon them, is in
terceped by the leaves of the various fruit trees the
deleterous portion of the carbon which the light and
oxygen would have have carried off, mixes with the
watery particles Of the vegetable, and becomes not
only deficient in nutriment, but absolutely unwhoc-
some.--Selecfed.
