PREPARED FOR THE GEORGIA TELEGRAPH.
Great Britain.—Severe storms raged along
the coast of England, resulting in many marine
disasters. The ship “Spendthrift,” bound for
London with a cargo of tea from Shanghai,
China, foundered near Dnngemess, only fifty
miles from the port. Daring the last hurricane
on tho Eastern coast ten fisher-boats, with a
crew of about GO people, men and boys, were en
gulfed by the furious waves. Numerous wrecks
of fisher-boats were seen near tho coast of Hol
land, and in the North Sea. The melancholy
fate of these hardy seamen has deprived above
thirty wives and sixty children of .their support
in Great Yarmouth.
A Congress of importers of petroleum oil

sorbed by tho wood. These resolutions will bo
forwarded to New York, Boston and 1 Philadel
phia.
Many great grain firms in Liverpool have

weeds. She opened the Holbom Viaduct and
Blackfrior’s Bridge across tho Thames, with

much of her former popularity by persevering
in her secluded life, far from the capital of the
Empire,
Tho 0th of November, Lord-mayor's day, was

The whole scientific and educated world takes
the deepest interest in Dr. Livingstone’s impor
tant discoveries in Africa, He seems to have
discovered the sources of the Nile at last, and

The discussion onDr. Eberty’s bill, providing
that political misdemeanors and offences of the
press bo henceforth included in the ooeapetency
of juries, was resumed, and the bill finally car
ried. In the following discussion of the budget
for 1870, Camphansen, the new Minister of Fi
nances, told the House that he was not yet able
to furnish the Chamber with a complete and
formal statement of the financial position of the
country. He added that he would endeavor,
while strictly respecting tho claims of public cred
itors, to procure greater facilities to the State for
the extinction of national indebtedness. He was
of the opinion that with an estimated budget
certainly showing a deficit of 5,400,000 thsSers,
bat at the same time providing the means of
extinguishing 8,C66,000 thalers of old debts,
Prussia might be envied by most European
States. Long cheers followed the speech of the
Minister.
In consequence of tho many dangerous, end
too often fatal accidents, to which females es
pecially on the stage, are exposed by the infl£-
mability of their dresses, tho committee for
Trade and Industry have made known a prepa
ration, which, when properly applied, renders
muslins and all such light materials quite incom
bustible. This valuable preservative is the
body known as tnngstate of soda; bnt a mixture
