Transportation of the Convict Dalmas for Life.—Our readers may remember that Dalmas was removed from Millbank prison, by order of Sir J. Graham, Secretary of State, to Bethlehem Hospital, during her Majesty's pleasure. Since this period the public has heard little or nothing of the convict, and had ceased to take the slightest interest in him, save and except that they entertained an opinion that a great criminal had escaped the fate which his crime richly merited. It now appears that the convict is not altogether to escape punishment, for since his admission into the hospital of Bethlehem the medical gentlemen of that institution have doubted his insanity; in fact, they have stated that since his residence in that establishment, now about eight or nine months ago, he has exhibited no symptoms of insanity. This extraordinary circumstance has been duly reported to the Secretary of State, and the consequence is, that Sir J. Graham has issued an order for his removal from Bethlehem to his old quarters at Millbank prison, previous to his commuted sentence being carried into execution. The prisoner will now, consequently, be transported for life to one of the penal settlements. Joseph Hume, Esq., M.P. for the Burghs.—We congratulate our readers on having gained a proselyte to the good sound cause of Conversatism in the person of our worthy member, who voted, on Monday last, " with" the Ministry, and" against" his friend Roebuck and his old liberal acquaintances, on the motion to exclude "all trades, professions, and offices" from the operation of the incometax. Has our member really turned tail upon his old cronies, or is he supporting the Ministry for a con-si-der-ation ? Possibly his appointment as one of the Commissioners for the Harbour of Refuge on the East Coast may have smoothed down the" incorruptible" Joe.—Montrose Standard,  The Importation of Cattle.— A return has been printed of the number of oxen and bulls, cows, calves, sheep, lambs, swine, and hogs imported into the United Kingdom, since the sth and 6th Victoria, e. 47, anno 1842, specifying the total quantities in each year ending the sth day of January. In 1843, there were imported of oxen, and bulls, 3,166; cows, 1,038; calves, 70; sheep, 634; lambs, 10; swine and hogs, 410. In 1844, the numbers were respectively-1,114; 369; 39; 210; 7; 361. In 1846-3,710; 1,155; 55; 2,801; 16; 271. Total of the importations from thepasslog of Act (July 9, 1842) to January 5, 1846-7,980; 2,561; 164; 3,646; 83; 1,042.  Attempted Suicide.—Some boys, who were taking& walk on Sunday afternoon last on the north side of Tarvit bill, observed something dangling amongst a clump of trees. They took it at first to be a bogie, and felt sore afraid, but at length on more close observation, they saw it was a man suspended by the neck, and his feet at least his own length above the ground. They called to some men, who were returning home from church, who out him down by chipping the neckcloth by which he was suspended by means of two stones. He was instantly carried to Cupar, a distance of half a mile, and medical aid speedily procured. Though almost lifeless, by the aid of proper reauscitatives he gradually came round, and we are happy to state is recovering nicely. We believe the man's name is Duncan, and that he is of weak mind.— Fifeehire Journal.  Haddington— Resignation of. the Provost.—On Thursday last, Provost Lea of Haddington gave in to the Town. Clerk a written notice, in terms of the Act of Parliament, of his intention to resign the offices of Councillor and Provost of the burgh. This is said to be done on account of insulting language used towards him at the Council meet. jogs; and as he finds that since the last election the great majority of the Councillors are termed Liberals, and do everying to thwart him, while at the same time the language permitted is also of such a liberal description, that he can bear with it no longer.—Berwick Warder. Glass Manufacture.— We understand that the glass manufacture is shortly to be revived in this city. It is said that .£lO,OOO is forthcoming to be embarked in it. This manufacture went to decay in Cork immediately after iposition of duty from which it was before exempted country. This, together with the harassing regulations of the Excise, so discouraged the manufacturers, that they had to yield to English competition. At present there are some encouraging prospects for this trade, now that all duty is to be taken off, and "a clear stage and no favour" given to it in both countries. Surely, as far as home consumption goes, we ought not to fear English competition. In Waterford they can safely defy it, from the superior article there manufactured. Why should not the same happen in Cork ?—Southern Reporter.  the imposition  Romance in Me Life of a Factory Girt.—Miss Irene Nicholls, daughter of Mr. Nathaniel Nicholls, of Monmouth, Kenebec County, while at work in a factory in Dorchester, Mass., some four year since, was offered very liberal wages to go to Mexico, and engage in a factory just established there. She, with eight others, accepted the offer. While there, she became acquainted with Ferrero, the present revolting and successful General, with whom she contracted marriage. Ferrera is now President of Mexico, having his head-quarters at the national palace in the city, and this Kenebec " faotory girl" now " revels in the hall of the Montesumu." General Ferret% is of OW. man extraction.—Ken. Journal. the is..
