At a meeting of the commissioners of the 
Forty-foot Drain, held at Donington, for the 
purpose of taking into consideration the pro- 
posal made by the promoters of an intended 
canal between Stamford and Boston; the pra- 
position of rendering the Forty-foot servicea- 
ble to the junction projected was acceded to; 
but the commissioners refused the application 
to allow the new cut from Stamford to fall 
into their canal at the point proposed by Mr. 
Telford ; declaring that they would not suffer 
a junction to be formed between the new cut 
and the Forty-foot at a greater distance from 
the outfall than Hale Fen. ' 
At a late common hall of the corporation 
af Stamford, a petition respecting the ap- 
‘pointment of a new place for holding the 
» corn market, was taken into consideration. 
The petition recommended the area under the 
ote the new shambles, as a space pre- 
erable to the present market-hill, as it was 
under shelter, was large enough for the pur- 
‘poses of the-market, and had several recesses 
or boxes, which would be conyenient to many 
persons, and be rented on terms of profit to 
the corporation, After some discussion, the 
question of the petition was put to the vote, 
and negatived. The corporation, however, 
desirous of doing all in their power for the 
Feasonable accemmodation of those frequent- 
ing the market, immediately entered into a 
Subscription among themselves (individually ) 
for erecting a colonnade, or covering of some 
Sort, over the market-hill, to obviate the 
anconvenience at preseat complained of,

A party of 13 persons lately assembled at 
the dwelling-house of a person named Vel- 
dum, (an overlooker on the farm of Mr.

incident tothe killing of a large pig. he 
Mother of Vellum had prepared some yule 
fakes, of which the party partoole freely at 
tea. In ashort time they all complained of 
being ill; and it was discovered that, in 
Peking the cakes, Mrs. Vellum had mixed

up with her paste a plateful of what she took 
to be simple flour, which she found on a shelf, 
but which her son declared to have been prin- 
cipally white mercury, mixed fer sowing with 
wheat, on his master’s land. Their horror 
may be faintly conceived, Despair seized them 
all ; and mental anguish adding to their bodily 
suffering, they Jay down about the house, 2@ 
they believed, todie. Medical assistance being 
procured,however, their lives were preserved, 
with the exception of one person whom the 
surgeon found dead ; but it is expected to be 
some years before the others perfectly reco~ 
ver from the effects of the poison.
