London Shipping Gazette proves that our ma
rine progress is engaging the jealous observa-
ton Of our English contemporaries:
CAS- a matter Of fact we may state that, be-
tween the years 1855 and 1856, the number of
ships built in the United States exceed those
built in the United Kingdom by COS, represent
ing 49, 100 Of tonnage-an excess which would
no doubt have been continued buttor the com
merciaI disturbance of 1857. This fact is
somewhat significant, when we reflect that it
illustrates the activity Of our greatest rival on
the sea-a rival who excludes US peremptorily
from a most important branch Of his carrying
trade"

OBITUARY.

DIED, at her residence, near Kent County
Almshouse, on the llth day of November, l S57,
Mrs. ELIZABETH ALLABAND, in the 77th year of
her age.
Mother Allaband was converted in her 22d
year, and united herself with the NJ. L. church i,
she remained a faithful, consistent and exem-
plary member thereof during period of fifty
five years. Her experience in the things Of
God was of the most profound and fruitful cha
racter She was bright and shining light in the
pathway OF religion. Often, while in the SER
vice of God, she was filled with the Joy that is
unspeakab!e and full of glory.
She never allowed an opportunity to minister
consolation to the afflicted or distressed, to pass
by unimproved and it was ever her delight to
give to those who asked, Biblical reason for
theshope that was in her. She was called to pa ri
with her pious companion in the year 1928, and
remained widow till her death. She was af-
aicted with Asthma, of long standing, with
which she suffered much. About eight days
before her death, she was attacked with Fry.
spelas, and her complicated disease was very
painful but, in the midst of intense bodily sui
ferng, she ever manifested christian patience
and fortitude, till released by death. She left
six children, twenty-one grandchildren and ten
great. grand children. Let me Gle the death
of the righteous, and let my last end be like
hers" " The righteous shall be had in ever
lasting remembrance"

ever, is owing in part to the many garnishee

EUROPEAN NEws.-The Canada's mails ar
rived Saturday. The European aspect of alfails
is warlike. Sardinia and Naples are at open
variance, France and Switzerland the same
Russia is threatening Austria. Turkey, though
torn by her internal troubles, menaces Greece,
while Denmark will probably be invaded by the
forces OF the Germanic confederation, on ac-
count of Schleswig and IIolstein.
The news from India is important. The
British troops had made their grand attack upon
Lucknow, and the City had fallen. Tho rebels
fled from their strongholds in the greatest dis
order, and were holly persued by the British
cavalry and artillery.
Thee was not much hard fighting at the
capture, and the losses were light, the rebels
making but feeble resistance. At the latest
advices, the whole city was in possession of the
British.
There had been quite panic in Calcutta, in
consequence of a widespread fear of an out
break among the natives,-but it turned out TO
be unfounded.
There is nothing later from China.

The WEATHER AND THE FRUrr.-During the
past week we have had all kinds of weather.
damp, rainy, chilly, and cold, with an OCCASION
al glimpse of sunshine. In fact it has been
much more like March than April. On Sunday
there was a slight fall of snow for several
hours, followed on Monday morning by very
heavy frost and some ice. The prospect thus
far for fruit has been encouraging, but the heavy
frost on Monday morning must have injured the
young fruit exceedingly. In regard to peaches,
however, If one-half should be killed there will
still be enough left for fair crop.
The st. Louis NeWS says that in portions of
the West, the prospect for fruit the coming sea-
son is most encouraging. In some parts of the
country portion Of the buds were killed by the
frost; but the remainder will only be the better
for this. Throughout Missouri and Illinois.
there will be an abundant supply of peaches.
apples, pears and cherries of excellent quality.
The trees are now blooming, and promise CO.
pous harvest of juicy luxuries.
The frost in Pennsylvania Sunday morning
last was SO heavy as 10 freeze the ground-to
nip the blossoms and young oats-and serious
apprehensions were felt for the safety of the
