  Her steamer the "St. Sunniva" leaves for Shetland at 9, so I fear you will have to give her breakfast in good time on Thursday.

The imaum had behaved still more liberally, to an extent not known; but he had also appointed Captain Cogan to be his agent in England, for which situation the captain was said to have refused that of Police Magistrate of Madras.
