PENRITH HERALD and East Cumberland and Westmorland News. =================================================== THE YACHT, GOSHAWK, with MR. FERMOR HESKETH and party on board, arrived at Algiers on the 2nd of January from Gilbralter. THE ACADEMY understands, from private sources, that the Sultan of Zanzibar has by no means relinquished his intention of visiting England in the spring or summer. His Highness has, it believes, sent home an order for a steamer of considerable size, that is to cost some £40,000. THE KING OF BAVARIA has had a fall from his horse. In descending a slope, wishing to put on his paletot, he had taken the reins in his mouth, when the animal took fright, and stooping suddenly, jerked the rider over its head. Fortunately the ground was sandy, so that the King escaped with only a slight scratch on the right cheek. MR. HENRY GLASSORD BELL, sheriff of Lanarkshire, died last week. He was fond of literary pursuits. A volume of his occasional productions was published by MACMILLAN, under the title of "Romances and Ballads." His literary fame will rest, however, on his poem "Mary Queen of Scots," written in his early years. RIVALS IN BUSINESS. Having manufactured and exposed for sale a certain mysterious adjunct of feminine dress, called a "Dolly Varden improver," MR. CHARLES MONTAUGE, managing director of Caoutchoue and Kamptulicon Company, found himself defendant in a police case, the charge being one of fraudulent imitation. It was clearly shown that the prosecutors, MESSRS. BATTOCK, had claimed as a novelty an invention which has been in use for twenty years. This being considered by the magistrate, MR. INGHAM, to end the case, he dismissed the summons, ordering the complainants to pay five guineas to the defendant, for costs. ALARMING FIRE AT DUNDEE. - An alarming and extensive conflagration occurred in Dundee, whereby a warehouse belonging to MESSRS. A. and D. EDWARDS, containing thousands of bales of jute, the property of JOHN SHARP, was totally destroyed. The damage will be £12,000, covered by insurance in the Queen, Northern, and Westminster offices. The cause of the disaster is not ascertained. Two men had been employed loading jute from the warehouse and, observing flames at the farther end of it, gave the alarm; but before the brigade arrived, the flames had obtained such a mastery that they were only extinguished when the property had been totally destroyed. SINGULAR CAPTURE OF A SPLENDID GOLDEN EAGLE. - The "Inverness Advertiser" says that as two men were engaged recently in repairing a house at Craiguanach, Lochaber, they observed a golden eagle on the ground, devouring what proved to be a rabbit. One of the men cautiously approached the bird, which was too intent in swallowing the carcase of the rabbit to notice his movements, and threw down a bundle of brackens with which he was thatching the cottage on its back. A severe struggle ensued, but the two men, assisted by MR. MACDONALD, gamekeeper, managed to secure their prize, which proved to be a fine specimen, measuring seven feet from tip to tip, a size which is seldom equalled in the golden eagle.
