A gentleman residing in Taunton has constructed an umbrella on a novel principle, the main feature of which is that it can be carried in the pocket with ease: he intends sending it to the great Exhibition of 1851. Among other visitors expected at the Great Exhibition was a German chorus, made up of many Liedertafel societies, rivalling in number the never to-be-forgotten Cologne gathering (an assemblage of more than 2000 voices) the intention of which was to give performances in London. The Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge are about making a grant of 3000/. to the Bishop of Tovonto, towards securing the endowment of a college, of a permanent character, in connection with the church in his diooese.
