where the demand for organs must be cou-
siderable, Telford and another are the on-

the ouly pianoforte -maker in Ireland, died
from an illness brought on y Lis anxiety to
exhibit in Hyde Park, and though a piano
of his own is shown in the present Exhibi-
tion, the manufacturer has ceased. '[here
is a solitary Irish harp and one small case
of brass wind instruments of native make

fair specimeus of harness and saddlery
and a little superior bookbinding. A good
collecliou of Irish clocks is shown, and
dressing case and portmanteau manufac-
turet,an excellent kitcken range by Hodges
and San, and two other or three indifferent
lamps and chandeliers. The only other
remarkable fe tures of Irish contributions
are shoes, blushes, bog -oak ornaments,
cork- models, rocking -horses, and wedding
cakes. Shoes are specially exhibited by
Baird of Dublin, made in a particular wav,
with wooden pegs instead of stitching, and
are said to be excellent.

\Ve received last evening the satisfactory

turn to thiseouutry from Italy proves how
faithful the people of the coutiueut are

have been in the power of scores, nay''
hundreds during his absence, to have be-
trayed him to Lis pursuers. But be a safe.
Another illustration of popular feeling in
the hands of Austria, is afforded by the
fact that the leader of the insurrection at
Milan was in that city three months be-
fore • the outbreak—Lis errand known to
hundreds, yet his presence not belrayet.
More tlau that, we are iuformed that he
rested securely in that city for a month af-
ter the insurrection had been supposed, and
left Italy w safety for Loudoo.—London

but did not return. On Monday of the
next week, at noon, the body was discov-
ered in the water, near the fountain quay..
'The features did not present the same ap-
pearance as is usual in drowned persons; the
face became entirely black. " A novel
process" was used for the recoecry of the
body by one of the coast guard. On Fri-
day monung, the circumstance haring, been
made known to hitn, he assured the by-
standers that if the party was drowses io
the neighbourhood, he would discorer the
body by mcans of a " new loaf of bread, in
-which should be deposited three ouuces of
quicksilver, when the loaf would float till it
rested over the place where the body fright
lay." liowever extraordinary it may ap-
appear, the experiment yeas ttied, and on
the loaf becoming stationery, a boat -hook
seas put over -board beneath it, and brought
up the body. The man states that tins is
the fourth instance in which the experiment
has been tried by Lim with success.

TIIE STEAMER NEW \ ORK.—This
splendid steamer belonging to the Ontario
and St. Lawrence Company commences
her regular ttips on the American Ex-
press Line one week from to-morrow.—
We paid her a visit one day list week, and
were very much pleased with the taste dis-
played in her fitting up. IIer saloons and
cabins bear the impress of experienced and
skilful hands, and the visitor is assured'at a
*lance that everything that can insure the
case, comfort and safety of the travelling
public, so far as the New York is concern-
ed, bas been attended to. The New York
has accomodation for about 300 cabin pas-
sengers. Besides 44 state rooms, she has
12 double rooms, all fitted up with superb
trimmings, gorgeous ru:tains awl costly
mirrors, and while everything had been done
that cdtrld be conceived to render a trip
cotplcrtable and luxurious, a double care
has been taken for the prevention of acci-
dents -and the safety of passengers. 'Ile
steamer is provided with three fie engines
one amidships worked by the engine, one at
each end of the vessel, made Stationary with
the auction hose passing through the boat
cemmenicating with the water, the leading
hose is ot sufficient length to reach any part
of the vessel, and always ready to work'—
About a hundred floats, of capacity to float
two passengers each, hare been provided
and arc rigged with cords so that the bold
may be preserved. The vessel is also pro-
vided with six small boatsfour of wbicb are
Frrncis' Metallic Life Boats, insiatruct,ble
by fire, and capable of carrying 40 persons
each. To all these precautions are'added 2
lite preserver stools to every state rooms.

TIIE ACLAND ENQUIRY COM-
MISSION.
This Commissiou held a second silting at
the British Exchange llotcl in this tows on
Monday the 27th. inst., for the purpose of
takiug evidence on the part of the defence.
The Commission opened at 9 o'clock
A. M. and closed at 3 1'. M. The Com-
missioner Mr. Bell and the defeudant's
Counsel Mr. Beecher leaving on the same
day for London where the Commission was
to have been opeued for au hour or so
on the part of the defeuce, and then to be
closed finally. We trust that Judge Ac -
land and his friends will not complain deny
want ot time being given them, as the
government extended the Commission two
months for the purpose of alloeiue the
Judge to put in any further defence Le
might desire,tbereby spiuniug out this inves.
tigation for a period of five montlu. We
were opposed to the extension of time al-
lowed under the Commissio-,•is every opper-
tunity had been„ giro!' for Mr. Acland'e
defence at its first opening and In our opin-
ion it was unjust to require the Commis-
sioser and C.onlpleioants Couusel to travel
over the ground a second time.
'I'be Commission having been extended and
the Judee's second defence basing been put
in, we now trust the Government will gite
the accused the full benefit of Lis deleace
and the advantage of every doubt, aid an-
swer the prayer of the Complainauts pe-
tition promptly by giting justice in the
premises. The people of Iluron have been
petitioning in this matter for two or three
years, and we may safely eoucbrdethat they
will not take it well of the 1 internment if
any more time iv lost in answering their
prayer.

THE MAITLAND GRAVAL ROAD
COMPANY.
In our advertising columns will be found
a notice oftiie meeting of the Shareholders
in this work for the purpose of appointing-
Directors, &.c., for the road. It appears
that private enterprise has origluatcd a
Joint Stock Company, with the above de-
signation for -the purpose of making a
Gravel Road in conformity with the -Act
12 Viet. Cap. S1, to extend from the
Town of Goderich to a distance of about
six miles out upon the Iluron
'I'he stock is divided into four hundred
shares at £5 each, nearly the whole of
which are already taken up, so that the
work is secure of going into operation.
A large portion of the mud road which
tits undertaking will supersede, has long
been an eyesore to this neighborhood, as in
the spring and fall it is nearly impassable,
and even after an ordinary shower in the
summer mouths locomolien Is mucin re-
tarded by the tenacity of the soil. We
would have been pleased to have seen the
road undertaken as far as Clinton, but as
many difficulties and much delay would have
to be encountered in doing so at preach(,
probably the wiser course las been adopt-
ed, and an extension can isc an after con-
sideration. It is expected that the ria
miles w ill be completed during the preseet
season. Mr. George Brown, County
Treasurer, and tate other gentlemen who
have exerted themselves in this matter are
entitled to the thanks of the travellers on
this road, as are also the members of the
'Gown Council, which body has taken fifty
.hares in the undertaking; although the pro-
ject will undoubtedly be a paying one.
We are glad 'Lat a commencement is
abouts to take place io gravelling the lead-
ing roads of these United Counties, and al-
though the operations in This instance are
epos .leery limited scale, atilt we rejoice in
them as being the commencement of those
efforts which will ultimately secure con-
tinuous lines of good roads throughout the
Couutiea.
The coodiuon and prospects of our
Counties require efficient roads, and now
that Perth is oobly making bee own gravel
roads, we are in hope That the Counties
Commit will seriously entertain the sub-
ject, and we doers( not it might be success-
fully btought under notice, at its next
session. We believe the Gravelling of
the Iluron and I. nndon Roads could be
completed for £15;)0), or probably less,
and it is well knows that the Cantles aro
in fully as favorable a polities for undertak-
ing such weeks as the neighboring County
of Perth which kit already toted £20,000
f or that object, and we are co.vi.ced that
sepal enterprise word be mssifested
by the people of those Colm'ies, if the mat-
ter should be nsbmitled to then
FIRE.
The Tannery of Messrs. Oliver and
Bruce of this'1'uwn, was discovered to be
on fire at about two o'clock, oD the morn-
ing of Tuesday last, and' in a very short
apace of time eras burnt to the ground.—
The building was a frame one of consider-
able age. and it is supposed the fire origi-
nated from some defect in the flues. The
principal part of the stock was saved, be-
intl. mostly in the vats at the time. The
building was insured for £350. The w,a.i
was fortunately rely light or tie dwelling
house situated within a few feel of the
burnt building must have gooc likewise.
A large 13.11 to he rang upon the occa-
sion of fires, lee., is much needed, as io our
Town from its wide 'Spread location, a fire,
as in the present instance, may take place
without the majority of the nbantal,ts be-
ing aware of its (raying transpired until the
next day. Occasions may am! probably
will arise when the united excrtions.of the
whole inhabitants will be reginred to pre-
vent the spread of the destructive element.
We Lope that some efmt will be made to
secure the prompt co-operation of the pub-
lic at such disasterow times.
CROWN LANDS DEPARTMENT.
We find the following very imporlsat
(acts relative to this management of tho
Crown Lands department, in the editorial
correspondence of the Toronto "North
American" of of the 19th nit. 1l reflects
the very highest honor upon the dutingmab
head of that department, and will bo highly
gratifying to the whole conclry:
" ■STRt�Cnuasr ASD aaroau.
"1 Lave just seen a statement prepared
in answer to as Address, of the results of
the Hon. Dr. Rolpb's rmproremeots in end
niacin* el administration of the Crown
Lands Departrneot. It appears that the
average produce of the timber duties for
the last three years did oot exceed £25,000.
Last year, after allowing for all deducttona,
ieclnding the amount thrown off on account
of reduced duties, about which Bonito,
made an much noise, the revenue will
amount to upwards of Cb0,000. This in-
crease is chiefly owing to the vigorous and
eucceeeful dyer's of the Comm ,sioaer in
preventing frauds and evasions of the law.
Se much for bating an able, honest man at
the head of an important Department•—

TIIE TOWN COUNCIL.
The Town Council met on Tuesday
night last. His Worship the Mayor be-
ing absent, the chair was filled by Mr.
\\'allace, the Reeve. The following gen-
ttemen were present, Messrs. Marwood,
Story, Raltcubury, Ifolton, Watson,
White, Smith, llenky and O'Coonor.—
The discussion had principally reference to
the grading and gravelling of some of the
leading streets. including West street,
from the Ilarbor hill, the Markel Square,
Kingston, and portions of Elgin end'1'oroa-
to streets, to the old South Boundary,
which operations are to co.nmence as soon
as the necessary preliminaries are effected.
The Council also takes £250 stock is
the Gravel Road, for which a company is
now forming. 'fo effect these and some
other necessary improvements., including
the erection ot public Schools all of
which will greatly benefit the inhabitants
generally, the Council have wisely deter-
mined to raise money by Debentures to the
amount of £2500, instead ol £2000 as we
on a former occasion reported.
It also appeared to diaetrsion that the
Council had taken the fire Engine from
the hands of the Company which lately
held the same. We hope as Ibe Towi is
