AN Additional and Important Evidence of the Salu- L tary Effects of "ÐLA.tR.'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS, from Mr. Thomas Yates. 5, Albion Road, Stoke Newington Green, 6th February, 1847. Sir,—-With much pleasure I acquaint you with the benefit that I have derived by taking Blair's Pills. On my journey five weeks since, while at Chepstow, I had distressing symptoms of an attack of Gout in one foot, and with the utmost difficulty reached Bristol. By this time the disease had so much increased that I could not place my foot on the floor, the swelling being exten- sive and the pain excruciating. Having often heard of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, I immediately sent to Messrs. Ferris and Score, Chemists, Bristol, for a box, which when I had taken, the pain had wholly subsided. I continued the pills until I had taken two-aud-a. half boxes more, when to my gratification I was per- fectly restored to health, and able to resume my journey. I respectfully assure you that I shall recommend this valuable raecticine to the fullest extent in mv power, and never while travelling shall I in future be without it. During my illness my residence was at Mrs. Slocombe's, Greyhound Inn, 'Broad mead, Bristol, whose family, if requisite, will confirm the facts I have stated. I forward my case to you for publication, that the afflicted Ulay be assured of and obtain relief. I am, Sir, yours respectfully, THOMAS YATES, "Traveller to Messrs. Day and Martin, 97, High- Holborn, London." To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand, London. The efficacy of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills is now universally acknowledged, and for the class of dis- eases known as Gout, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, Tic Dolercux, and -,ill :illa!o,.zotis' tits, comment is unnecessary. The continued series of testimonials, of such indisputable authority as the above, renders this one of the most popular medicines of the present age. Sold by T. Prout, -229, Strand, London. Price Is.

HOWARD and THOMAS continue to supply the Losr. of Teeth without springs'or wires upon their new system of SELF-ADHESION, which has proeorei them such uni- versal approbation, and is re ommonded by numerous Phy"sicians and Surgeons as being the most inM-aous system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They adapt themselves over the most tender gums, or remaining stumps without causing the least I the painful operation of extracting quite unnecessary.

HHVIBW8 OF THE WORK. 1 Unquestionably this is a most extraordinary and skilful work and ought to he extensively circulated for it is quite evident that there are peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which arc totally unknown and concealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly reprobated and condemned. The Engravings that ac- company the work are clear and explanatory and being written by a duly qualified medical practitioner, will doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, as well as those of maturer asc, from the various evil conse- quences resulting from early indiscretions." —Marjnet. This work has the advantage over other treatises on the same subject, in being the production of a regularly educated and duly qualified member of the medical pro- fession who has had very .great experience in the treat- ment of a class of infirmities resulting from secret habits and excesses, which, for their treatment, the utmost I secrecy, confidence, and skill, is so essentially requisite." -Loudon Journal.

THE AUSTRIAN INVASION OF ITALY.…
THE AUSTRIAN INVASION OF ITALY. [From the Times,] On the anniversary of the day on which the House of Austria was saved from ruin and vassalage by the con- duct of an Englishman on the field of Blenheim the troops of the aggrandized empire have deliberately in- vaded the dominions of the most unoffending potentate of Europe. Between the territory of the empire and the States of the Church the Po forms the clear and unquestionable boundary but the Austrians are enti-' tled, by treaty, to garrison the fortress of Ferrara, within the Papal frontier—a privilege which of course gives them considerable command, but no more legal power over the city beneath them than they possess at Voltena or Viterbo. It will be recolleeted that on the precise night which was to witness the explosion of the late audacious conspiracy at Rome some sympathetic springs of action detached a considerable force of Anstrians from the imperial frontiers towards Ferrara, who arrived with apparent expectations of continuing their march on a southern route. The disappointment of these hopes by the detection of the plot and the preparations of the Romans have not suggested either retreat or excuse. The tiger has not slunk back after missing his spring. On the llth of August an order was despatched from head-quarters at Milan to the governor .of the fortress, commanding him to march into Ferrara, and tooma" the grand guard* and the gates of the city, or, in other words, to take military possession of it. Two days afterwards this was ac- cordingly done, with every circumstance of bravado and menace. The Pontifical troops are still allowed to supply a guard of honour to the legatine Palace, though even on this post it was attempted to substitute Austrians. They are indulged, too, with the care of the prisons; but, with these exceptions, the city is taken as completely under the Austrian regime as Pavia or Lodi. Of course no reader is ignorant of the motives which are notoriously impelling Austria to what is perhaps but the beginning of her aggression. The liberal policy and avowed projects of Pope Pius IX. have alarmed the senile conversation of the Court of Vienna, and violence will now be tried in impeding measures which intrigues and protests have failed to avert. The exu- berant expressions of feelings ordinarily inseparable from the accomplishment of any popular reforms, or- if even such manifestations should be repressed by the prudence of a grateful people—the very reforms them- selves will furnteh occasions for feigned apprehensions and ostensible precautions. It will be alleged that from Bologna and Lugo, as recently from Cracow, formidable dangers are impending over the empire of Austria, and the laws of self-defence will be made to cover the most unprincipled of invasions. That the execution of such a scheme of policy should commence with so daring a defiance of the international rights as the occupation of Ferrara, and that the disclosure of the imperial complicity in the original outrage should only have led to more determined aggression, are iudications of tolerable certainty as to the boldness and inveteracy with which the design is likely to be carried through. It is not at all surprising that the interest in the resurrection of Italy, and the good deeds of Pope Pius, which was so conspicuously exhibited throughout this country even before the recent events, should have acquired additional extension and vigour from the malevolent aggressions to which so beneficent and defenceless a Sovereign has been exposed nor can anybody wonder at the impulses which have suggested that a more official and emphatic countenance should be given to a famous nation thus struggling for new life and liberty than may be inferred from demonstrations of popular sentiments or the organs of public opinion. It is impossible not to concur in the general conclusions, which considerations of such generosity have dictated, and equally impossible not to see that the intervention of Britain, which might elsewhere be confined to boot- less protests, might here be exercised with overpowering force, at little cost, and in a most righteous cause. The Tiber and the Po are as accessible as the Tagus and the Douro, and the English flag might carry comfort and counsel to reviving Italy along either coast of the Pen- iti'.iila. Nor should we be reluctant to grant that, in a conference between the empire of Great Britain and the States of the Church, the stronger power might waive a point without any ruinous compromise to its honour or its pride. But it was not unreasonably re- presented in a letter which we recently published, that the perpetuation of a formal, though harmless interdict against an amicable state, is but a poor indication of enlightenment, and a sorry step to reconciliation, and that the recognition, however complimentary, of a Sovereign's title, must necessarily preced e the reception of diplomatic or auxiliary missions from her Court. E\en if no desirable relations were in prospect, it would be but consistent with the wisdom and intelligence of that monarch who now fills the elective throne of Central Italy, to remove from the ordinances of his re,ili)l a .f l spite which was never vmy bc."rnin to the character, or beneficial to the interest of his kingdom. But, as affairs now stand, it can hardly be thought expedient to leave unrescinded ? absolute sentence of impotent wrath against a country which possesses greater power and a better wi!i t to promote the hopes (,f Italy than any other nation of Europe. It is not taking very arrogant ground, or intimating very hard conditions, to say that the initi- ative in such a matter should be taken by the Pope. t The present relations of the two Courts are a disgrace to the age but, though t.he benefits of a change would be undoubtedly reciprocal, yet it cannot be doubted on which side they would preponderate; and the eonvictioll of such a result might aid in suggesting a step which England, by her cordial expressions of good will and sympathy, has done so much to invite.

MH. BAINES'S ADVICE GRATIS.—Mr. E. Baines, jun., having sent his circular upon education to the Me- thodist Quarterly Conference at Truro, that body have acknowledged the obligation in the following resolu- tion That in the judgment of this meeting Mr. J Baines's letter is an arrogant obtrusive meddling with the affairs of a Christian church of which he is not a member, and that such conduct would be justly deemed indecent and disorderly if he were an official one. And we think he says what is not true of the British Govern- tnelit that his advice to the Wesleyan quarterly meetings is neither needful nor acceptable—neither wise nor good; but that the regularly appointed com- mittees, in whom we have full confidence, and for whose labours we are thankful, are better able to direct the affairs confided to their care than any stranger can be, however highly he may think of himself." THE CAMDEN TOWN DUEL.-The judge who tried Lieutenant Munro, Mr. Justice Erie, in forwarding to the Secretary of State the recommendation to mercy on the part of the jury, also himself recommended a com- mutation of the sentence to twelve months imprisonment. Under the circumstances there is no doubt the recom- mendation will be attended to. It is, we believe, not unusual for the crown to interfere in mitigation of punishment under peculiar circumstances, or to grant a free pardon so that if a free pardon be not granted, it is not improbable that Lieutenant Munro may be dis- charged before the term of the sentence has expired. We have not the slightest doubt that the exercise of the prerogative of mercy vested in the crown would meet universal approbation. PROPOSED DINNER TO SIR R. PEEL AT NEWCAS- TLE.—On Thursday a communication was received from Sir Robert, to the effect that, owing to his numerous engagements, he was obliged to decline the invitation.— Newcastle Guardian. Loss OF HER MAJESTY'S STEAMER MASTIFF.—"We are in receipt of letters from the Orkney Isles announcing the probable loss of the Government steamer Mastiff, Commander Lieut. A. B. Beecher, off the island of Sandor, 12 miles from Kirk wall-bay. She has been for some time past engaged in the survey of the coast in the vicinity of the Orkneys. On the morning of Tuesday (the 24th), while lying at anchor off the island of Sandor, it came on a fearful gale. Every precaution was taken for the safety of the vessel, but during the height of the storm she was driven from her anchor and carried ashore, a violent sea beating over her for many hours afterwards. We are happy to state that the whole of the ship's crew and officers were saved. Very little chance remains of preserving the steamer, which is full of water and has sustained considerable injury. The Mastiff was an old vessel, having been launched at Bideford in the year 1813. She wUi nearly 200 tons burthen. ELECTION OF GOVERNOR OF THE BANK OF ENG- I.ANi).-Preci-,ely at four o'clock on Tuesday the ballot- ing for the new Governor ceased. The Court of Direc- tors being bound by their bye-laws to keep the ballot open until that time, although during the last hour only one person came forward to give his vote. The glasses having been sealed in the prsence of the directors, the scrutineers proceeded with them to an adjoining room, for the purpose of counting them, and after an absence of a few minutes returned into court, and stated that by the ballot James Morris, Esq., was elected by seven'v- eight votes to the office of Governoi during the remain- der of the year. Tle scrutineers appointed by the court were .,o -as Gribble, Esq., John Vines, Esq., and Robert Sulton, jun., Esq. Mr. Knight, tne secretary, then read the minutes of the proceedings, and the court adjourned. PROGRESS OF FREE TRADE OPINIONS IN PIUTSSIA. —It is currently reported that an Industrial Congress is about to meet at Berlin, composed of deputies distin- guished for their knowledge of commerce and manufac- tures, in order, in conjtim lion with other men of practical talent in those matters, to consider several important subjects connected therewith. The question of differential and protective duties, as well as the system of free trade, will occuov the especial attention of the Coiigress.-fleidelb.-rg Deutsche Z itung. How TO FILL BOXES AND PIT.-Wernyss, a famous theatrical manager in Philadelphia, has quitted the bu- siness, and opened instead a large store for the sale of patent medicines. A friend dryly remarked that he would no doubt be succos&U 8, both boxes and pit.—New York SSun. x
IMISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.…
I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. 1 On Thursday Prince Albert completed his 28th year. The trial of the Polish prisoners at Berlin is going on rapidly; some of the accused have been liberated. A rumour is current in Taunton, that Mr. Labou- chere, will be shortly elevated to the peerage, which would occasion a vacancy in one of the seats of that borotigh.-Bath Journal. The result of each race at the York Meeting, on the 20th inst., received by the electric telegraph, was posted outside the office of the Manchester Timet within a quarter of an hour after the race was run. On Tuesday, says the Newcastle Advertiser, we ob. served several stacks of old wheat in a farm yard near Wooler. The owner will probabljr have to submit to a loss of 50s. a quarter. Rear Admiral Phipps Hornby has been appointed to the command in the Pacific, to succeed Sir George Seymour, and will hoist his Sag in the Asia, 84 guns, at Sheerness. There is no nation more inclined to peace than the United States."—So says the Yew York Sun; Napoleon not unfrequently said the same of himself and France. The Newcastle-on-Tyne Chamber of Commerce has invited Sir R. Peel^t*« ■pufcdic dlnwr. _J John Thompson, who at the last Carlisle assizes was tried and found guilty of ptoisoning his wife, Mary, with whom he lived at Carlisle, last week underwent the ex- treme penalty of the law. The select vestry of Liverpool have resolved to discon- tinue the quarantine regulations, as far as the Irish are concerned; the improved health of the town having warranted them in so doing. Nobody, observes the Birmingham Journal, seems to have an idea what has become of Lord Brougham. He used to be everywhere at once, and now he is no- where. The gentry of Mayo have unanimously declined to seek for compensation for land taken for public works under the Labour Rate Act. The amount thus aban- doned is upwards of E20,000. Mr. Charles Russell, we understand, has offered to resign the Chairmanship of the Great Western Railway Company to Viscount BarriiiEtton, the Deputy-Chairman of the company. Whether Mr. Russell's offer will be accepted we are of course unable to say.—Ilerapath's Journal. A court martial was held at Portsmouth, on Wed- nesday, on John Connor, able seaman of the Agincourt, for striking Mr. Barnaby, midshipman. The prisoner was convicted, and sentenced to death !-but a commu- tation will take place. A correspondent, says the Edinburgh Chronicle, asks whether a note is at present lying enclosed at one of the banks in Glasgow, payable to any clairvoyant who can tell its number, and expresses his confidence that he could do so.—[We should suppose the clairvoyant could as easily tell whether the note was there or not.-E I). W.) A cricket match, the fast bowlers v. the slow bowlers, was played in London, last week, when the fast bowlers won with some wickets standing. On Sunday week, the Rev. Alexander Hoops, Rector of Glandera, Tipperary, blew out his brains with a pistol, about two hours after he had officiated in the church. Two boys aged eight and nine, quarrelled in the street in London, last week, and fought, encouraged by the by- standers, till one of them was killed. On dit, that the charming actress, Mrs. Nisbett., will be led for a third time to the hymeneal altar by a young Scotch baronet. The furniture of the late Mr. O'Connell, at Merrion- square, is advertised to be sold by auction in the course of next month. It is expected to realize a considerable amount above the intrinsic value, as remembrances of the departed agitator. The library is not mentioned.— Globe. A ruffian, named Robert Pilkington, a7ed 53, has been committed to Lancaster gaol, for beating his wife's brain* out with a poker, at Heaten, near Halliwal, in tha' county. The prisoner belongs to a most depraved family, two of whom have been executed for murder, one has been transported for manslaughter, and three others have been tried for ferocious acts of cruelty. The Infante Don Juan of Spain, younger brother to the Conde de Moutemolin, arrived on Thursday even- ing in London, and alighted at the Clarendon hotel. He left by an early train on Pridav morfting to meet the Conde de Montemolin at Combermere-abbey, Cheshire.—Globe. The number of votes for two rival candidates for town conncillorship at Bradford being equal, the parties de- cided the election by tossing up. Mr. Ramsden won the toss," and was declared duly elected."—Many Chancery and other suitors should take a hint from this precedent. The Bishop of Ely has written to the Church of Enq- land Journal, denying that he spent not less than eight months of last year away from his diocese."—The editor remarks that the Bishop does not state how many months he was absent, whether seven-and-a-half, or what. Last week. says the Brir/hton Guardian, a florist ex- hibited a placard in his window advising all ladies who ",(')oc desirous of possessing bouquets for Jenny Lind's concert, to order them a few days beforehand, a& the demand for that occasion would be exceedingly grea.t. Among the young gentlemen who have just gained honours at the London University is Soorjoo Coomar Chuckerbutty, who has distinguished himself in three different departments of medicine—Anatomy and Physi- oloy, Chemistry, Materia Medica, and Pharmaceutical Chemistry. Emerson, the eminent American writer, who intends to visit England, may be expected about November he will, it is understood, deliver lectures in some of out large towns. A correspondent of the Hereford Times states, that at the present day, Wesley's descendants are all church- men. The Duke of Newcastle and the clergy and gentry about Worksop have formed themselves into a society to suppress prize-fighting. The Daily News says of the East India Directors- Their routine machinery of administration is admirable, but it is so perfect in its way, that it makes machines even of those who work it. In the hope that Mr. Munro would have been acquit- ted at the Central Criminal Court, the officers of the Royal Horse Guards (Blue), in which he had served, subscribed a sufficient sum of money to purchase him a commission in that regiment. The Postmaster-General, the Marquis of Clanricarde, has allowed Bradley, the Lombard-street carrier, who was so maltreated by the ruffians who attempted to rob him of the Post Office bag in Wood-street, and defeated their plan by his resistance, to retire on his full pay. He is sixty-three years of age, and has been in the Post Office department nearly 10 years. The Coast Guard force is now undergoing a re-organi- zation, bv which it will be converted into a body that shall be available in time of need to defend our shores from foreign invasion. The men are to be especially exer- cised in gunnery. and 2,000 gunners are promised to be efficient by the iOth of October, 1848. The whole Coast Guard force numbers 6,000, 2,600 of whom are stationed from the mouth of the Thames to the Land's. -r-.tid. The men are to receive extra pay for their military services. The income of the Warden of Winchester College is about EI,400 a year; of the twelve fellows about L700 a vear eacli.-We will undertake, says the Hampshire i Independent, to find men every way qualified to educate boys as highly and soundly as are those at Winchester College for JE70 a year each. At the Cambridge assizes a poor man, named Bedwell, was sentenced to be imprisoned for six months, for re- fusing to pay a church-rate of sixteen shillings, in which he had been assessed. At the Liverpool assizes, on Thursday, John Thomas Williams, a youth about 19 years of age, was found guilty of the manslaughter of Thomas Kearns, the keeper of a i..>use of ill-fame. It appeared from some declara- tions of the deceased, made shortly before his death to the constables, that the prisoner had come to his house with one of the lodgers, that they had a quarrel and the girl struck him, and that he (the deceased) then inter- fered and put him out that a few minutes after the prisoner came to the door, and, on his opening it stabbed him without saying a word. The prisoner was sentenced to six months' imprisonment with hard labour. The commercial writer of t;?e L?-po? Albion makes the following suggestion :—" We would suggest that i the attention of the new parliament be directed to the establishment of a uniform standard for the sale of bread-stuffs of all sorts and that, while we regulate the weight of butter in our retail markets, we may as property and beneficially enforce an unvarying bushel, and do away with the present custom of every village market having its local measure. The advantages of 'he change do not require any explanation, they arc too manifest." A curious case, illustrative of the present state of the law of marriage, was recently tried criminally at Down- pairick, before Chief-Baron Pigott. In 1845 a man named Beadneil was married, in Tullylish church, to Ann Bright, who died the following spring. Some months after Beadnell married the mother of his de- ceased wife, the ceremony being performed by the Bam- bridge district registrar. A prosecution was instituted by 'he crown against Beadnell and his wife for perjury, in having sworn before the registrar that there was no just impediment to their being united. The judge said that the case rested on the question whether the accused had knowingly sworn to a falsehood. The jury could not agree to a verdict, and the parties were discharged on giving bail. A Nonconformist League has been formed at Man- chester. A white swallow was seen flying about at Appleby, oa Monday last. Last week, a farmer, near Thirsk, sold for 8s. 3d. per bushel, a quantity of prime wheat, for which, five weeks before, he refused 14s. 6d. There are said to be 36 barristers and 4 attorneys re- turned to the new Parliament. It is said that the Unitarians contemplate establishing a University Hall" in London, in the neighbourhood of University College. Mr. Buxton caught in his net, near the Trent-bridge, on Wednesday night last, the enormous weight of sixty stones of eels. It is stated that three voters for the county of Limer- ick, when on their way to the poll, were thrown into a boghole and drowned. The Yorkshireman, in a report of Ripon races, men- tions that in 1722 Mrs. Aislabir, of Studley, gave, as a race prize, a tea-pot and canister, tE12 and in 1744, a piece of plate, value LIS, women to be riders. The committee of the Wesleyan day school in Gains- borough have just received the grant from Government, on behalf of the building of their school. They are expecting others for the master's salary and other ex- pences. As lowness of spirits proceeds ofteaer from the state of the stomach than that of the mind, it would be as < well for intending suicides to try an emetic before hav- ing recourse to arsenic or prussic add. Mr. C. B. Marriott, of Thundersley Rectory, has addressed a letter to the Yorkshireman, contending that clergymen of the establishment ought to be eligible to the House of Commons as dissenting mi- nisters are. A ruost lamentable event took place last week at Geneva. The Rev. Edward Auriol, rector of St, Dun- stan's in the West, Fleet-street, was on a tour through Switzerland, with his wife and son, a youth of about 17, of the most amiable disposition, their only child. They arrived at Geneva at the beginning of last week, and were planning an excursion on the lake. The morning after their arrival the youth, with his parents' consent, went out for a stroll before breakfast. Unaware of the peculiar dangers of the place, he got into a boat on the lake, was drawn into the current, hurried down the rapids of the Rhone, and totally lost. He was a youth of great promise, and obtained a scholarship and the theological prize at the Midsummer examination at King's College, London, in the present year.-Glrbe. An interesting case came before the Lord Chancellor of Ireland, on Tuesday. A person was brought up on an habeas corpus. The return set out his imprisonment by order of the seneschal of Mary's Abbey, which had jurisdiction in civil and criminal pleas, by patent of Charles the First. This raised some knotty points in constitutional law and the doctrine of kingly prerogative some two centuries past. The monastery to which the right is attached was dissolved in the reign of Henry the Eighth, and the chief question now is, whether Charles the First could resuscitate these jurisdictions, A good deal will depend on the wording of the Statute of Dissolutions. The prisoner was remanded until Fri- day, when the matter was again under discussion. We have to announce the demise of Sir John M'Crae, K C.H., who expired last week at Bruick, Inverness- shire. He served in Copenhagen and Walcheren under Sir John Moore and the Duke of Wellington, and sub- sequently acted as secretary to the Marquis of Hastings, when governor-general of India. An interesting return to the House of Commons has just been printed, of the number of persons employed on all the railways opened for traffic on the 1st of May, 1846, the total length of which was 330-51 miles, with 1040 stations, The total number of persons employed, of all classes, was 47,218, including 124 secretaries or treasurers, 86 engineers, 399 superintendents, 100 ac- countants, 100 draftsmen, 3432 clerks, 183 foremen, 2969 drivers and firemen, 11G3 conductors, 10,800 arti- ficers, 8576 porters, policemen, &c. 4148 plate-layers, 12,493 labourers, 407 gatekeepers, 151 waggoners, 49 breaksnien, 256 miscellaneous, 1041 switchmen. A re- turn is also given of the number of persons employed on lines in course of formation on the 1st of May, 1847, the length of which is stated as 6445 miles, employing in the whole, 256,509 persons, which, added to the 47,218 employed on lines opened, gives a gross number of 303,727 persons employed on railways on the 1st of May, 1847. It is stated, on good authority, that one of the London houses which failed last week made eighty thousand pounds at the commencement of the season by their successful dealings in Indian corn All this has been lost, and their capital besides, by an unfortunate mis- calculation of the fluctuation of the market and the state of the weather.

A BINCELT EXAMPLE.—" His Highness the Prince of Wied," says the Elberfelder Zeitung, has given orders that all the game in the county (Grafschaft) shall be destroyed, except what is in the enclosed park, and has intimated to his ministers at Neuwied, that the practice of exacting pecuniary compensation for inj ury done to game shall in future be discontinued." MONTE VIDEO AND BUENOS AYRKS.—By an official letter, dated Rio de Janeiro, June 25, we learn that on the 7th of the same month the plenipotentiaries of France and England entertained strong hopes of being able to arrange on a satisfactory basis the disputes be- tween the Oriental Republic of Uruguay and General Rosas. SHOCKING TRAGEDY.—A horrible realization of the story of Ginevra," in Rogers' Italy, and of the song of the Mistletoe Bough," occurred at Glasgow last week. Three young boys, two of them sons of Mr. J. Wilson, builder, Gallowgate, and the other the scm of his brother, were lost. As the rest of the family were down the water, the boys' absence occasioned at first no great uneasiness, it being supposed that the young- ?; supl)osed that the young- sters, the eldest of whom was about eleven years of age, had set off to join their mother and the rest of the family. At last, a carter who takes charge of a horse belonging to Mr. Wilson went to the stable for the purpose of procuring some provender for the animal. The provender is kept in a corn-cheat-a box six feet long and about three deep, with three separate compart- ments, and secured on the outside with an iron hasp, which fits into a staple in the side of the chest. On opening the lid the man was horror-stricken at finding the three young boys motionless at the bottom of the chest, each occupying one of the compartments. He immediately summoned assistance, and they were taken out but it was found that two of them—James Wilson aged eleven, and Charles Wilson, about a year younger, were quite dead, and had been so apparently for a con- siderable length of time. The youngest, a boy between seven and eight years, showed some signs of life, and by prompt medical attendance he gradually revived, so as to be able to state what had led to the melancholy catastrophe. The brothers and cousin had gone into the chest in search of beans, and while so engaged the lid, which, as has been already stated, is secured on the outside by an iron hasp fitting into a staple, closed on them. In falling, the hasp, as it most unfortunately happened, fixed into the staple, and all the united strength of the poor captives was insufficient to enable them to burst the bands of what too truly proved t eir tomb. On the side at which the younge&t boy %iad found the lid did not fit so close as the other parts, and from the limited supply of air which had been admitted through this crevice is to be attributed his preservation. They had endeavoured to support each other's courage as well as they could in their dismal dungeon and, before giving up hope, one of them broke a blade of a penknife in the attempt to make an incision through the side of the chest. After they had exhausted them- selves by unavailing shouts and cries which were not heard on earth, they all joined in prayer, This is the last circumstance which the surviving sufferer recollects, as he soou after became inensible. To account for no noise having been heard, or no one within call, it may 'be mentioned that the wood-yard in which the stable is situated is locked up early on the Saturday afternoon and it is not again entered till Monday morning. A FATAL BLOW.—A man named John Scott, known in Edinburgh as the last executioner of the law, has been killed by a blow from a man named Adie, a broker in the Cowgate. Adie, it appears, had been drinking for several days, and being in a very excited state, he encountered Scott at the bottom of the Fish-market- close, and struck him a severe blow on the heart. Scott fell insensible to the ground, and was carried into a* house adjoining the spot, where he breathed his lat in the course of a few minutes. Adie was. immediately LJliluYLinto etist -d,- —
