SUSSEX.

The Earl of Abergavenny has generously granted to the Overseers of Chailey, Sussex, about 40 acres of waste land for cultivation, and to give employment to such of the poor of that Parish as are destitute of other work.

Singular Fact.-The lovers of natural history may find amusement in the following article:-Mr. Gray, of Tower-street, Chichester, has at this time in his possession a hawk and a pigeon, both of which, for some months past, have been together in a small garden. From docimiliary treatment, their natural antipathies are quite obliterated, and the pigeon is completely master of his companion, which he never fails to evince, if at any time the latter encroach on his demesne.

WILTSHIRE.

That most useful undertaking, the North Wilts Canal, being completed, the Committee of Management proceeded on Friday the second instant, in their barge, to open the same for Navigation. During their progress, from its commencement at the Wilts and Berks Canal, near Swindon, to its termination in the Thames and Severn Canal, at Latton, near Cricklade, they inspected the various works, and were highly satisfied at the very able and substantial manner in which they had been constructed under the direction of Mr. Whitworth, the company's engineer. The fineness of the weather, added to the importance of the occasion, brought forth an immense concourse of spectators, who, by their repeated acclamations, seemed fully to appreciate the auspicious event. When we reflect on the great utility of competition in the supply of that article of prime necessity, fuel, we cannot too much applaud the spirited exertions of the projectors of this work, who have at length, succeeded against a strong and interested opposition, in establishing a regular and efficient communication, by which the abundant progress of the Glocestershire mines may be conveyed to some of their most natural Markets, the vales of Wilts and Berks, and the populous districts on the banks of the Thames, in exchange for the grain and commercial articles brought from the Metropolis along that river. We trust the final success in cutting this little canal is an earnest of that which will attend another important scheme, which, though it has for sometime been dormant, is by no means abandoned, and by which, if carried into effect, the two great cities of London and Bristol would no longer be dependent for the interchange of their commerce on the uncertain navigation of a river or the tedious and expensive conveyance on a turnpike road.

From all parts abroad we hear of markets being overstocked with English goods. Melancholy news from Leeds of the state of the woollen trade: the first Tuesday of the month is usually the great day of business there, and on which so many as 20,000 pieces have been sold---last Tuesday only seventy were disposed of! Numbers of workmen are idle, and the little masters equally distressed.

Clayton and Gorside, at the expense of 60,000 for the manufacture of flax, canvas, linen, &c. has been closed, and several hundreds of hands in consequence turned out of employment.
