ENGLAND.  Rsiipimss Trowsy.—l'lletove any person is now admltte4l to an one In the ‘Fealeyan Society," states the Stamford' Mercury," the question is put, ' If you should find anything you disapprove of in management or discipline, will yot quietly leave the body and not agitate?'" The Angel Hotel, Oxford, cost in the year 1829,4E22,500; ow, owing to railways, valued at £5,000. The Star , Oxford, cost £15,500; its present value figures A quarter share of the Queen's Hotel, Chelteuwhich was sold for £lO,OOO, is now only worth On the furniture alone £16,000 has been lost. d Hall and Potosi& Fann.—The claimant (Lamer) operty, with the lands attached, whom, it will be _ld, Bush endeavoured to entrap for the murders of 'ffialail:Jenny, has taken proceedings for the possession of the Wades. The case will be argued in one of the courts of law. Stanfield Hall and Potash continue tenantlesN presenting a wretched and desolate appearance. Several labourers have been offered sums of money to live in them, with their families, rent free, but in every instance the offers were refused. The solicitors, under the fiat of Rush's bankruptcy, have now possession of the blunderbuss delivered over to them by the High Sheriff of the county. It is said it is to be sold for the benefit of the creditors.  ogani of tbie  Pedestrianism—Race for .6100.—The match between Conway of London, and Hayes of Hawlshaw Moor, came off at the race-course, Aintree, on Tuesday, and attracted a very numerous assemblage. Both men have acquired considerable celebrity among that portion of the sporting world who patronise this species of amusement. Hayes was the favourite at 5 to 4; but the Londoners, nothing daunted, hafted their man with much spirit. The distance was four miles, and was performed in 19 minutes and 44 seconds. On starting Hayes took a lead of about three yards, which he steadily maintained till rounding the course the second time, when Conway put steam on, and assumed the premiership till turning into the straight running, when Hayes came with rah, passed his man, and improved his position till the finish, where he came in an easy winner by about 25 yards. The pace, as will be seen, was decidedly good. Sandwich Idands.—Advioes have been received from the Sandwich Islands, as late as the 17th November: According to these, the traffic between the islands and San Francisco continued very active, and it- was hoped that the prodta would soon cause a steamer to be put upon the service. Highly favourable accounts had been received of the quantrties of oil taken by the whalers, who had this season penetrated ea to an unusually high latitude in the Arctic It was estimated that not less than fifty vessels had pealed through Behring's Straits, although it is only two years since the fishing has been carried to that quarter; and there was reason to believe, from the average of thirteen ships already reported, that the total quantity of whales captured in 1849 would be 480, and the pro. duce in oil about 67,000 barrels. The Polynesian contains many documents in relation to the recent aggression of Admiral de Tromelon upon the islands, at the instance of the French Consul, M. Dillon. The wanton destruction of the fort at Honolulu, and the capture and removal of the King's yacht, after the Government, relying on what they regarded as the plain interpretation of the eakting treaty, had declared that they would offer no resiskasosa, had created a feeling of indignation which it woelibu-slifficult to remove. The conduct of the British Coosa in the matter appears to have afforded satisfaction; hot there seems some reason to apprehend that unto*, tlizoselt. the representations of the envoy of King Samebesmellsk mow in Paris, some guarantee be obtained against a repetition of such attacks, the attempt to maintain the independence of the islands may ultimately be abandoned by the people, and that they prefer to pass, for the sake of security, to the Government of the United States.
