ITEMS OF INTELLIGENCE. 



fVoTrrstrr i'tttth; Hlwio. The annual Cattle Show and 

 Fair, for the County of Worcester is held this day, 

 Wednesday, 8th Oct. 



The Newport N. H Spectator, of the 30th ult. says 

 *■' snow fell briskly upon the hills this morning. A trav- 

 eller, a few miles below, meeting another, covered with 

 snow, inquired how far he would go with wheels." 



A very respectable meeting was held on the 2d ult. at 

 Davis Ball Room. New Orleans, in pursuance of pre- 

 vious understanding, with a view to adopt measures to 

 decrease the number of duels. It is proposed to establish 

 1 " Court of Honor." with such other regulations and 

 by-laws as may conduce to the beneticial object in view. 



Steam jVar/tratlon in India. Among the supplies late- 

 ly voted in the British Parliament, was the sum of £20 - 

 .)U0, to assist in the experiment of a conimiiiiicitU^ wdth 

 India, by steam conveyances. Two routes are under 

 L'onsideralion for the regular line of communication ; 

 ine with Bombay through the Red Sea, the othVr by the 

 Euplirates and Persian Gulf The expense of the eom- 

 inunication is to be borne jointly by the British and In- 

 lia Governments. Tlie communication bv the Red 

 Sea is to be first established, but as it is supposed that 

 Iho other route, in certain seasons of the year may afford 

 superior advanlages, and as the experiments by the Red 

 Sea have been made by the East India Company, at an 

 expense of 00 or £70,000, the Committee of the House 

 rif Commons recommend the appropriation of the above 

 sum for experiments on the other route.
