nominated a provisional government of his own at Gaeta.

TURKEY.

Constantinople is notorious for the frequent recurrence of dreadful fires; 150 houses were consumed on the 2nd Nov. in Awan Serail. Another terrific fire broke out on the 12th at Pera. The museum, mosque, hospital, medical academy, and nearly 280 buildings were destroyed, at an immense loss.

UNITED STATES.

General Taylor has been elected President of the United States, and Mr. Fillmore Vice-President. General Taylor and General Cass had each fifteen States in his favour, but the number of votes were 163 to 127. Mr. Polk has taken leave of the Presidentship in a Message of unequalled extent. He boasts that the conquest of Mexico has added 1,193,000 square miles to the American territory, 66 a space nearly equal to the whole of Europe." He directs attention to the gold country of California in terms which will assuredly induce no small number of his countrymen to emigrate to that district, and he states that a national mint is to be at once

established there to work up the precious material. On the question of slavery, Mr. Polk is vague and unsatisfactory; but it

is left an open question as regards the new territories. The reduction of duties on imports has been successful beyond anticipation. Mr. Webster had said that the imports must rise to 140 millions per annum to make up for the revenue lost by the alteration, and this he contemplated as impossible; by official tables it appears that they have actually risen to 155 millions.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.

Letters have been received from Sir H. Smith, which describe his complete success over the Boers, and the pacification of the extensive district which threatened so lately to be the scene of a protracted war. Sir H. Smith has imposed

a contribution upon the Boers, which would defray the commissariat expenses of the troops employed.

CEYLON.

The Legislative Council was opened by Lord Torrington, on the 2nd Oct. with a speech congratulating the Council on the capture of the Native prince who recently pretended to the throne, and the suppression of the rebellion; and intimated his desire that martial law should be put an end to. Twenty-one insurgents had been summarily convicted and shot at Matelle, and others at Kernegalle.

DOMESTIC OCCURRENCES.

NORTHUMBERLAND.

The conservators of the river Tyne have for some years been engaged in deepening the river and removing obstructions to the shipping. One of the most formidable bars, which has long defied their exertions, was Cockran Sand, about five miles below Newcastle. The removal of this sand exposed a stupendous oak tree; which, after being skilfully and securely chained to a vessel at low water, was at high tide weighed and carried to Newcastle, where, by means of a powerful crane, it was raised and laid on the quay. It measures 16ft. 16in. in circumference by 18ft. long, and it is conjectured that it must weigh at least 15 tons. A tree of such dimensions (and this may be considered but a moiety of the length of the stem) must lead us back to a very early period. Certain it is, that from the appearance of decay it must have been many centuries in its late position. Before it bowed its leafy head it must have been at least of from 400 to 500 years' growth.

The surface of the side on which it lay is covered with a metallic coating of iron pyrites, which, with another scaly covering of pyrites, forms a kind of gallery, in some parts in. to lin. apart, having in many parts the intermediate space filled up with beautiful crystals of pyrites of minute size, like needles. It appears clear that the tree must have fallen or remained in the position in which it was found; as below it and embedded with it were quantities of small pieces of branch wood and hazel nuts, most of which were perforated at the top, and empty. The wood or bark below the pyrites appears to the extent of in. completely charred; and for 3in. or 4in. further the wood, although it has not changed its colour (the laminæ being distinct), is yet quite decayed. After this part is removed the rest is quite sound.-Newcastle Guardian.

SOMERSETSHIRE.

The parish church of Abbat's Leigh has been rebuilt at the expense of William

Miles, esq. M.P. The old church was destroyed by fire. The tower and chancel were not injured, and the new erection has been designed to make the whole of the building an uniform perpendicular structure, consisting of nave, north and south aisles, tower, sacristy, and chancel. The exterior of the building is faced with the old red sandstone of the neighbourhood, with Bath stone dressing. The accommodation has been much increased by the new arrangement of single, low open sittings. The roofs are open, and have traceried ribs and cushed braces. The old belfry

arch is opened into the tower, thereby exposing the western window. The pews in the chancel have been removed, new stalls substituted, and in the whole of the windows are inserted ornamental glass.

SUFFOLK.

Dec. 11. The Norman Tower, Bury St. Edmund's, on the restoration of which so much labour has been bestowed, was simultaneously opened to the public as a thoroughfare, and to its use as the belltower of St. James's church. For the latter purpose an assemblage took place of the ringers of Ipswich, Lavenham, Sudbury, Bildeston, Stowmarket, and Soham, and a few from Norwich and London. The Bury company rang the opening peal of "Grandsire Caters" in very good style; a piece of "Kent Treble Bob Royal skilfully performed by the Ipswich company; and various other peals were rung by the combined companies during the day, in the course of which they were honoured by visits from Lord Arthur Hervey and his family, and many other persons of respectability. Great admiration was expressed at the beauty of the tower, and at the tone of the bells, and the satisfactory manner in which they had been hung by Mr. Hurry, of Norwich.

SCOTLAND.

was

Nov. 29. The estate of Birkhall, adjoining Balmoral, was exposed for sale in Edinburgh, and taken out at the upset price, 14,900l., for Prince Albert. At the same time the life-rent of the entailed estate of Abergeldie, another adjoining property, was put up for sale and taken out for the heir of entail, Mr. Gordon, jun., of Abergeldie. It is understood that negotiations are in progress whereby his Royal Highness will become lessee of Abergeldie. Balmoral is a portion of the Earl of Fife's entailed estates, but it is believed legal authority is to be procured for selling it to her Majesty or the Prince. From these circumstances it is but reasonable to conclude that Balmoral will hence

forth take its place in the same category with Osborne and the other royal residences, where her Majesty regularly spends a portion of each year.-Aberdeen Herald.

IRELAND.

Into

Dec. 2. A most frightful catastrophe occurred on board the Londonderry steamer, by which 72 human beings were suffocated. The steamer Londonderry, one of the vessels belonging to the North-West of Ireland Steam-packet Company, left Sligo for Liverpool, with a general cargo, a large number of cattle and sheep, about 175 steerage passengers, emigrants on their way (via Liverpool) to America, and two or three cabin passengers. As she proceeded on her voyage, the weather becoming foul, it was deemed expedient to put the steerage passengers below. a space not more than 18 feet long, by 10 or 12 in width, and in height about 7 feet, 170 human beings were packed together, and soon after, lest the water should get admission, the companion, the only vent by which air could be admitted, was closed, and a tarpaulin nailed over it, thus her. metically sealing the aperture, the gangway being at the same time stopped by ropes, preventing the possibility of any renewal of the exhausted atmosphere. At length, one man contrived to effect an opening, and, pushing himself out, communicated to the mate that the people in the steerage were dying for want of air. The mate, obtaining a lantern, went down to render assistance. Such, however, was the foul state of the air in the cabin, that the light was immediately extinguished. On the tarpaulin being completely removed, the real nature of the catastrophe exhibited itself. There lay in heaps the living, the dying, and the dead, one frightful mass of mingled agony and death. the vessel putting into Derry, seventy-two dead bodies of men, women, and children, lay piled indiscriminately over each other, all presenting the ghastly appearance of persons who had died in the agonies of suffocation. Nearly all the steerage passengers on this most fatal voyage were poor farmers from the neighbourhood of Sligo and Ballina with their families; there were about an equal number of men and women, and a considerable proportion of children, many of whom are now left fatherless and motherless. The coroner's jury, which sat on the body of one of the sufferers, found that death was caused by suffocation, in consequence of the gross negligence and total want of the usual and necessary caution on the part of the captain, the first mate, and second mate.
