Mackie, a respectable Quaker, dated t,reeitagli, near Loughal, Ireland, dated September llth, 1848. To PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. RESPECTEI) FRIEND-Tliv excellent Pills have effectually cured me of an asthma, which afflicted me tor three years to such an extent, that I was obliged to walk my room at night for air, afraid of being suffocated if I went to bed by cough and phlegm Besides taking the Pilts, I rubbed plenty of thy Oint- ment into my chest night and morning. (Signed) BENJAMIN MACKIE. Cure oj Typhus Fever, irlicit supposed to be at the Point, of Death. A respectable female in tie, neighbourhood of Longhal, was attacked with Typhus Fever, and lay tor five days witt out having tasted any description of food. She was given over by the surgeon, and preparations were made for her demise. Air. Benjamin Mackie, the Quaker, whose case is referred to above, heard of the circumstances and knowing the immense benefit that he himself had derived from Holloway's Pills, recommended an immediate trial, and eight were given to her and the same number was continued night and monlng for three days and in a very short time she was completely cured. N.B.-From advice just received, it appears that Col. Dear, who is with his Regiment in India, the 21st Fusileers, cured himself of a very bad attack of fever by these celebrated Pills. There is no doubt that any fever, however malignant, may be cured by taking night and morning, copious clses of this hne medicine. The pntient should be induced to drink plentifully of warm linseed tea or barley water. CURE OF DKfn-SY IX THE CHEST. Extract of a letter from J. S.

Sir —Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending me your Pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of sending you an order for the amount, and, at the same time, to add that vour Piils have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver and Stomach which all the most eminent of the faculty at home, an d at! over the Continent, had not been able to effect: nay, not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish to have another box and a pot of the ointment, in case any of my family should ever require either. Your most obliged and obedient servant, (Signed) ALDBOUOUGII. Cure of a Debilitated Constitution. Mr. Mate, a Storekeeper, of Gundagai, New South Wales, had been for some time in a most delicate state of health, his constitution was so debilitated that his death was shortly looked upon by himself and friends as certain; but as a forlorn hope, he was Induced to try Hollowav's Piils, which had an immediate and surprising effect upon his system, and the result was to restore him in a few weeks to perfect health and strength, to the surprise of all who knew him. He considered his case so ex- traordinary that lie, in gratitude, sent it for publication, to the "Sydney Morning Herald," in which paper it appeared on the '2nd January, 18-18. & few doses of the pills will quickly rally the energies ot both body and mind, when other medicines have failed.

Even when the throat appears to be completely exhausted, and the voice to be nearly gone, two or three (at most four, will, in the short space of half an hour or so, comp)ete)y restore its fiexibintv and power, and they do not act as a mere temporary exciting remedy, nor do they leave any lassitude after. Having felt the great value of the remedy, I feel it a duty to generally recommend it, as I am convinced that al I persons will find immense benefit from the general and persevering use of it.

I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE.
I MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. The Countess of Arundel and Surrey, wife of the eldest son of the Duke of Norfolk, was received into the Roman Catholic Church a few days ago. Lord Denrnan is, we regret to learn, suffering from a renewed attack of illness, which it is now feared will prevent him from carrying out his intention of pre- siding on the bench at the approaching assizes. His retirement has been again announced, and again con- tradicted. Viscount Bernard, M.P., Colonel Chatterton, M.P., and Mr. W. Fagan, M.P., had an interview with Lord J. Russell on Wednesday upon the subject of railway extension, and the improvement of the harbours and lighthouses of the western coast of Ireland. Mr. R. Stephenson, M.P., has presented 100 guineas to the Whitby Institute for the purchase of books. [This is the proper way to carry out effectually the recent excellent suggestion of the Lord Bishop of St. David's.-ED. W.] The artistic world will learn with deep regret that Godfrey Schadow, the celebrated founder of the Dussell- dorf School, and president of the Academy of Arts and Sciences at Berlin, died on the 2Sth ult., at the advanced age of 86. Among recently-announced deaths are those of the Countesses of Plymouth and Weinvss Sampson Scares, an old man, died lately in a garret of a public house in Marylebone in a most wretched condition, apparently starved to death. He had vege- tated in the garret for years, receiving 3s. 6d, a week from a servants' benevolent society yet he had no less than £1800 in the funds. The Old Oak of Ross was burned down on Wednes- day last by accident. It was supposed to have been 1,500 years old. Its circumference at the base was 15 yards. There are hardly more than 4,000,000 or 5,000,000 Jews in the whole world whereas Buddhism numbers 400,000,000 professors and Christianity, 230,000,000 to 250,00,000. There are four hundred estates now in the market to be sold under the Encumbered Estates Commission. Lord Campbell is a petitioner against one estate, which owes him about £10,000, Letters from Dublin state that great damage has been done by the storm, which, fur upwards of twelve hours blew with unabated violence only exceeded by the terrible storm of January, 1829. Miss Jane Tucker, the originator of the Governesses' Institution, died suddenly on Friday last, at her resi- dence, Queen-street, Brompton. The deceased was 70 years of age. A coroner's inquest was held on her remains on Tuesday last, and a verdict was returned of death from affection of the heart. On Wednesday evening two young, hearty-looking fellows, who gave their names Bigwood and Southcott, were received into the Keynshani union-house, as tramps, for a night's lodging. The next morning they applied to be discharged while the porter" as gone to get the key of the gate they took off their caps, and covering their hands with them, pushed their fists through 16 squares of glass They then coolly waited till the por- ter returned, when they acknowledged that they had done the mischief, and that their object was to get sent to gaol, to pass a month of the dead winter." They were taken before J. J. C Ireland, Esq., at Brislington, by whom they were committed to Shepton-Mallet house of correction for a month's hard labour each. The fellows said they came from Trowbridge. Mr. T. W. Whale, B.A., scholar of John's college, Cambridge, has been appointed vice-principal and ma- thematical master of Grosvenor-college, Bath and Mr. E. T. Stephenson, prizeman of Trinity-college, Dublin, assistant master. The vessel Shah Jehan, which has arrived in the West India Docks from Canton, has brought upwards of 14,000 packages of tea, being one of the largest indi- vidual importations of this important article of mer- chandise which has ever taken place. Two individuals are missing from Bath under circum- stances of a mysterious ciiaracter. One is Mr. James Vowles, a superannuated exciseman, aged (30 the other a young woman named Mary Ann Davis, servant with a clergyman residiug at Beau (ot t-b uildings east. The former left home on Thursday, and the latter on Tues day week. Davis had been ill for some-time under a love disappointment, but was recovering before she left her master's house. Oil Tuesday afternoon a fire broke out in the large range of premises belonging to Messrs. Smith and Sons, the wholesale furriers, No. 10, Watliug-street, City. The damage done was very trifling. The sawing mill at Castle-hill, erected by the Earl of Fortescue with the most improved machinery, has been accidentally burned down. The damage is esti- mated at £ 1,000. The contents of the poor-box in the Gloucester Cathe- dral have again been carried off by some thieves. Captain Alexander Eilice, R.N., who has filled the office of comptroller of steam machinery at Somerset House since December, 1846, and which office is now to be absorbed in that of Surveyor of the Navy, becomes the new Comptroller-General of the Coast Guard, in the room of Capt. Houston Stewart, C.B., appointed a Lord of the Admiralty. A number of American ship-captains and mates were in Parkinson's public-house, Roe-street, Dublin, last week, when they heard that a black man was in another room, sitting along with some friends belonging to Wombwell's menagerie. Several of them went into the room, said they would have no negroes there, and ejected the man with some -iolence. A general squabble then took place, and the landlord was wounded on the head. Stowfort, one of the Americans, was afterwards taken before Mr. Rushton, who in deciding upon the case, said the dis- turbance arose from the prejudice entertained in the United States against blacks. Because a man with a coloured skin was in an adjoining room he was to be ejected and maltreated, and riot created. Such conduct would not be tolerated in England. Fined E-5, or forty-two days' imprisonment. A trial of the strength of gutta percha tubing took place a few days ago at Stirling in the presence (,f the town council with a view to its applicability for ex- tinguishing fires, flushing drains, &c. The tubing, j which was one-and-a-half inch bore, was attached to the j water pipes and although the pressure of the water is perhaps the greatest in the kingdom (being about 4.50 feet), not the slightest effect could be perceived upon either the tubing or the joints, whilst the same pressure upon strong leather hose scattered the livets in all directions. The Morning Chronicle says of the reveahnents of its metropolitan correspondent It is as if a gaily painted curtain had been withdrawn, and all the horrors of Dante's Hell displayed where a mocking scene of joy- ousness had cheated the beholder. Famine instead of plenty, hideous vice where we looked for smiling in- nocence, in the place of progress,' the downward path of the human mind mapped out in broad blurred lines." The calling of names among Irish Repealers is some- times highly edifying. Mr. M'Gee in his Sn(oll, (January 19) calls Mr. John O'Connell "a sinking humbug. We find the following in the New York Mirror: — "Yull look like death oil a pale horse," said Jhn to it toper who was growing pale and emaciated. I don't know anything about that," said the toper, but I'm death on pale brandy, Mr. Horn." Mr. Henry Mavhew, the J\1etropo}¡tDn Conlllji;¡oJ;cr of the Moaning C'hroaiclc, had a second interview on Thursday with Sir George Grey, at the Home-office, to make certain proposals as to the awfui state of the low lodging-houses of London. •' The speech from the throne," says Punch, was telegraphed over 2000 miles of wire within an hour of its delivery. Though the speech was above the ave- rage in point of matter, it must be confessed that never was a royal speech so thoroughly wire-diawn before. In the Court of Exchequer on Friday, in the case of Ryder v. Mills, which has excited considerable attention in the manufacturing districts, the judges, after argu- ment, decided that the relay or shift systenl in factories is not punishable. The convictions against the mill owners have been, therefore, quashed. Tiie month's warning of the Railway Commissioners, to the Great Western Company to go on with the Ox- ford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway Line, having expired, a formal mandate li-is been served on the Company to the same end this will Luing the affair j to a crisis. The Daily News states By means and through the agency of the Ecclesiastical Commission there are now bishops receiving incomes never contemplated by the Church Temporalities Act. Dr. Maltby, Bishop of Durham, instead of the iSOOO a year fixed by that sta- tute, enjoys upwards of twice that amount. By its con- nivance there are deans enjoying quadruple the stipends fixed by that act as, for example, Dr. Waddington, the Dean of Durham, whose revenues are said to be not less than £6000 a year." In a letter to the Neir rod Tribune Mr. Bayard Taylor describes Californian electors Some went no further than to vote for those theyactually knew. One who took the opposite extreme justified himself in this wise When I left home,' said lie, I was determined to go it blind. I went it blind in coming to California, and I'm not going to stop now. I voted for the Con- stitution, and I've never seen the Constitution. I voted for al! the candidates, and I don't know one of them, I'm going it blind ail through, I am."

Lord Shaftesbury has not yet resigned his office of Chairman of Committees of the House of Lords, to which an excellent salary and considerable patronage are attached. His lordship, however, has desired to be relieved from the duties of Deputy Speaker of the Lords, to which he had been appointed in conjunction with Lord Denman. A warrant under the sign manuel had accordingly been issued, appointing Lords Denman and CampbeII to preside in the House of Lords, as De- puty Speaker, in the absence of the Lord Chancellor.— j Observer. The Rev. Dr. Gilly having delivered an excellent lee- 1 ture on Cottage Life" at the Gateshead Machanics' In- stitute, was requested to publish it, and assented. On this the Kev. Dr. Davies, rector of Gates head. remarked that his friend, Dr. Giily, was more disinterested and self- denying than a certain bishop, who, being asked to print a sermon, said, No, no that sermon has served me many a good turn, and I intend that it shall serve me many more. The Hydra has arrived from the coast of Africa. She captured three slavers since she has been out, and liberated 350 slaves, whom she took off a wreck. She is ordered to Sheerness to be paid off. The captain and officers of her Majesty's ship Blos- som, hearing of an American whale-ship, the Tigpr, being embedded in the ice, and in great danger, went thirty miles out of their way to render assistance,aud cut her way for two miles into blue water. The London Court of Common Council have voted the sum of £;500 to the fund for carrying out 1r. Sidney Herbert's plan of female emigration. Mr. Justice Maule, while hearing a case in the Com- I mon Pleas Oil Tuesday week, in which a cunfession of fraud was made on each side, said-" There was once a case in Chancery in which two highwaymen having quarrelled about their booty and one of them filed a bill against the other to compel him to divide it fairly; but the court dismissed the bill and punished all con- cerned in it." In the Court of Exchequer, on Thursday last, in the case of Nottidge v. Ripley," Sir F. Pollock said that the court was clearly of opinion that the plaintiff was entitled to recover the sums received in her behalf by the defendant unless he could shew some answer. No one appearing on either side, the judgement of the court stands at present that the rule should be dis- charged. The Mechanics' Magazine gives the following recipe for a bottle ofeap port iviiie :-Spirits of wine, three oun- ces cider fourteen ounces sugar, one and a half ounce alum, two scruples tartaric acid, one scruple stronc- decotion of logwoodWour ounces." At a pin manufacti^pg establishment in Birmingham, 6,000 pins can be made every minute a ratio equal to 3,600,000 per diem, or one bmion, one hundred and twenty-three millions, two hundred thousand a-year. Mr. Hepworth Dixon, author of the volumes recently published, Life of Howard"and" Prisons of London," has been selected by his Royal Highness Prince Albert and the committee of the proposed industrial exhibition, to visit Lancashire, for the purpose of organising local j committees. We are authorised to state that the report on inter- ments will be presented in a few days by the General Board of Health and that the bill for the Prevention of Intramural Interments, prepared by them, will im- mediately follow.— Observer. Mr. Hatchell, the Irish Solicitor-General, has been returned without a contest for the borough of Windsor. A petition against the return of Mr. Best for Kidder- minster has been sent to Parliament. The Evening Mail states that Mr. Ffolliott, one of the members for the country of Sligo, is about to retire from the representation on the ground of ill-health. Sir R. G. Booth, Bart., of Lissadill, is named as the hon. member's successor. On Thursday the nomination of a representative for Colchester took place. The show of hands was in favour of the Liberal candidate, George Wingrove Cooke, E,;q A poll was then demanded on behalf of Lord John Manners. Intelligence was received on Saturday morn- iog by electric telegraph that his lordship had been returned by a majority of 233. The subscriptions for the widows and orphans of the men who perished in the Tyne life-boat now amount to nearly £4,000. A young man, named Bradshaw, at Blackburn, on Monday week, for a wager, drank a quart of rum. In- sensibility soon followed, and he died the following morning. So tame did hares become during the severe frost, in Li¡;colns]¡ir<?, that boys readily beat them down in thorn hedges with iong sticks, and took great numbers. Mrs. Fanny Kemble has refused to give readings in Lousville, alleging that she cannot read in a slave state, and will not receive for her labours money which is the price of human blood."—New England Washingtonian. At the desire of Baron de Rothschild, the architect of the Jewish Synagogue of Paris has gone to examine several fine buildings of that description in Italy, in order to seek a suitable model for the rebuilding of the consistorial temple. Dr. Stevelly, in an instructive paper on the hot-blast furnace, states that of the men employed at this work, especially at the puddling furnace, not one ever lived beyond the age of 28. The number of punishments for drunkenness in the navy during the three years 1846, 1S47, and 1848, was no less than 1,449, equal to about 34,000 lashes. The total number of punishments for all other offences was 1,514. The tune of Derry Down" is, according to Sir Wal- ter Scott, as old as the time of the Druids,it being chanted by the priests as a chorus to their songs when they went to gather misletoe in the woods. Genius will work its way through," as the poet remarked when he saw a hole in the elbow of his coat. No summer but has its winter he never reaped comfort in his adversity that sowed it not in his pros- perity.

REPEAL OF THE ADVERTISEMENT DITTY.—An in- fluential deputation had an interview with the Cliaiicello- of the Excbequer upon this subject on Thursday. They were favourably recened. THE EGYPTIAN CHALLENGE.—We understand that the stewards of the Jockey Club have declined the match proposed bv his Highness the Pasha of Egypt. LrcKY CHANGE.—A poor weaver, named Strickland, TPsid1n," in Caroline-street, Kendal, by the death of Miss Burns, of Cringlenine, has found himself the for- 1 tunate possessor of £11,00:). THE FINANCIAL RurotiMEits.—On Tuesday morn- in week, Mr, George Thompson and Sir Joshua 'H almsley were nearly burnt alive at the Craven Arms Hotel, Coventry. Mr. Thompson had been reading in bed, when he unwittingly fell asleep. Both honourable j members, we are happy to state, escaped without injury. The damage occasioned to the premises is ahnostflOO. \ei:y STRANGE, ett VE:;Y TRITF,.—The electric j teles'aph is now one of the really sovereign powers by which the world is governed and, though civilisation, with a thousand other blessings, may be said to be a d- vanced I,v the potent engine, it must be admitted that wherever Use electric telegraph holds its sway, it rules with rous of iron. — I'u/tch.

THE NAVIGATION LAWS.—At a sale in Newcastle, two vessels, the property of the late John Hunter, \iz., the Eleven, of 263 tons, and the Tom Bowling, of 302 tons, brought £:?,700. The former was eight years in st-rvice, and the latter twenty. The first cost of these \essels respectively were £ 1,500 and £1,700. CHEAT SHIPS.—A gentleman in Liverpool has in- vented a new plan for building ships. The ribs and interior parts are to be iron, while the planking and exterior are to be of wood. A first-class vessel has been laid down in the dock-yard upon this plan, and it is es- timated that she will only cost £ 10 per ton. THE ItoYAL BABY-JUMPER.—We have heard a great deal about baby-jumpers lately but the most astonish- ing of all baby-jumpers is her Majesty's eldest son, who ,t his birth jumped into the Principality of Wales, the Duchies of Cornwall and Rothsay, the Earlsdom of Chester, Carrick, and Dublin, the Barony of Ren- frew, and the Great Stewardship of Scotland.— Pasqnin. GOVERNMENT Repairs or T!IE Welsh CASTLES. —The Commissioners of her Majesty's Woods nd Fo- rests set aside the sum of £ 3,000 for the purpose of re- pairing the fine old Castle of Carnarvon, the property of the Crown. This sum was judiciously expended under the directions of Anthony Salvin, Esq., architect to the board, and the result has been that the dilapidated por- tions of this magnificent structure have been secun cl in a most effectual manner, whilst the original character of the architecture has been retained. It is now st.-ted that the Commissioners of Woods and Forests are favour- i;icliii(,,l to uiil,,iiiL-e t'lie of at Conway, likewise the of the Crown, s s(?o,i as c:rcuaistanceswH] permit. !:et!tbu?r bridge ,;f ,j,e Chester and Holyhead Railway is thrown over the R'ner Conway close to the Castle, wVeh forms a most striking and pleasing object from every point of The DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SIR IIOB.-i-.T Wu'tvh E AND Sir Roi-eht PEEL.—One bought his partV i;nd tl.c o'icr sola it.— Pa:quin.

BENEFICES IN PLURALITY.—By a bill in the House of Commons, which was printed on Friday, it is proposed that spiritual persons shall not hold benefices in plur- ality, unless they are actually contiguous to each other, and the population of the two shall not exceed 600. The act is not to affect benefices under E100, and not to ap- i ply to preferments to which persons are admitted. The j act is to apply to Ireland as well as to England. THE HALF-YEAR'S RAILWAY DIVIDENDS—It is stated pretty confidently by parties who profess to have access to good information that, in addition to a divi- dend at the rate of 4 per cent., the Great Weste:n could carry over £ 56,000: but as the auditors consider that 1:13,000 ought to go against dividend, which the di- rectors think should go to capital, tbe undisputed sum carried over will be 1:42,000. If this be ti ue, they should divide more. It is likewise as confidently stated that the London and North-Western will pay at the rate of 6 per cent., and carry a round sum over. A difference has been said to exist at the board about the dividend. Some contend that a less dividend should be paid and a larger balance carried over. Our opinion is, that they ought to divide up pretty closely to their net profits. They will gain more credit by that than by making a show on paper, which some may be more apt to believe to be fudge than reality. The Midland directors are understood to have settled the dividend at 25s. percent, for the half-year, carrying a balance of some £ 17,000 over to t:¡e l;ext ao.:count.-Ilcmpat/¿'s Railway Journal, lUlL DDIES AND THE LORD CHANCELLOR.—This singular case came on again for discussion on Wednes- day last, before the Lord Chancellor and the Master of the Rolls. It was an appeal, as our readers may re- member, from the Lord Chancellor's judgment in an in- junction granted against Mr. Dimes, on behalf of the Grand Junction Canal Company, on the ground that the Chancellor himself held an interest in the company. In consequence, Mr. Dimes violated the injunction and was committed for contempt. He then made an appli- cation to the Court of Queen's Bench for a writ of Ha- beas Corpus, which was refused upon the grounds—1st, that the Court would not sit as a Court of Review on the Court of Chancery and 2nd, that the committal was the act of the Vice, and not of the Lotd Chancellor, although his lordship's initials were appended to tfie warrant. The case nor cari- or. by "-ay of appeal. After argument, the Master of the Rolls saw no reason for advising the Lord Chancellor to alter his decision, and, without hearing the other side, he dismissed the case against Mr. Diutes. with costs. WRECK OF THE ONYX.—Her Majesty's steam- H er ?N la i ,,st y steam- packet, the Onyx, was wrecked at Ostend, in endea- vouring to make the harbour during the heavy gales of Wednesday last. The passengers and mails were safely landed, but small hopes were entertained for the re- covery of the vessel. The Onyx was commanded by Lieut. Raymond. She is an iron vessel, built about four years since, has machinery of 128-horse power, and cost about £ 12,500. DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION IN LAMBETH.—On Thursday morning, shortly before one o'clock, a fire broke out in tiie extensive timber yard belonging to Mr. George Myers, of the Ordnance Wharf, Belvidere- road. Before water could be procured the flames had attained so qreat an ascendancy that the atmosphere was illuminated for miles round. In less than half an hour frem the period of the outbreak the premises on the west side of Guildford-street, formerly occupied by Messrs. Grissell (now in the tenancy of Messrs Christo- pher Nikeis and Co., India-rubber manufacturers), became ignited, and all the efforts to stay the ravages of the flames proved futile. In a very short period the window frames at the back of the houses in the York- road, caught fire and before any effective means could be adopted to prevent it, the whole range, numbered 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, were one mass of flame. By the total destruction of Messrs Nikel's premises from 300 to 400 hands, principally females, varying from the ages of 12 to 24, will be thrown out of employment. Several valuable horses were burnt alive. Some of the property was insured in the London Fire-office. Fl RE.-A most destructive fire occurred at the village of Ashwell, Herts, on Saturday night week, destroying property to the amount of from £ 25,000 to E30,000 consisting of houses, buildings, and produce of six of the largest farms in the parish, amounting to nearly 1,400 acres, of the estimated rental of 2,775, twenty-six. cottages of the yearly value of is;) 10s., two other houses partially burnt, three large malthouses in full work, filled with malt and stock barley, and the hand- some Independent chapel. This calamity, which has rendered thirty-two families houseless, and which has thrown sixty or seventy men and boys out of employ- ment, was the work of an incendiary. The property, with the exccption of two cottages, was insured, and the principal loss will fall upon the Phoenix. The Nor- ,ici,, tiie Suti, -.lie Farmers,' and other offices, will also be severe losers. The village was visited on Sunday and Monday by many thousand persons. FIRE IN A CHURCH AT MANCHESTER.—On Wed- nesday evening last, the church of All Saints, Oxford- road, Manchester, was partially destroyed by fire, the whole of the roof being burnt otf, and the valuable organ much injured. This event has placed the Rev. Dr. Burton-for more than 30 years the pastor of that place of worsiiip—in very painful circumstances. The eoi.hee was built by Dr. Burton himself in 1819 at a cost of £ 16,000 but his income from the church, in- cluding fees for funerals, &c., did not amount to more than 1:300 per annum, the residue, arising from a mortgage to Mr. George Walker, for some years a banker at Bur»leni, in Staffordshire, to the extent of £ 5,000, having been oequeathed to his grandchildren. A meeting of the congregation has already been heid t» consider the means for restoring the church, and effective measures for that purposewiH be adopted in the ensuing week. The cause of the fire has been discovered. A large scaffolding hole had been left in the flue, the sexton had been busily ernploj'{'d in con- suming the holly or evergreens with which the church had been decorated at Christmas; the burning embers had been carried with velocity up the flue, aud instead of finding their way out of the chimney in the roof, lodged m the scaffolding-hole, where thev set fire to the wall-plate, and thence the flames communicated to the roof. The total damage done to the building is estiniau d at £ .i,o00. The fire was at first discovered to be from the roof. All Saint's church had always been attended by a crowded congregation, chiefly of the middle classes. Dr. Burton has ever ranked among the evangelical party in the church, and was oiiginally in the Wesleyan Methodist Connexion. MURDER.—lltchard Takn, gamekeeper of the Rev. J. Dymoke, residing near Houghton, was shot on Satur- day morning last by some poachers whom he pursued. They in the first instance threatened to shoot him if he did not desist. Tasker, however, in defiance of their threats and the remonstrances of his companions, con- tinued the pursuit. When within twelve yards of the men one of them, having first cleared a hedge, turned round and deliberately shot him dead. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE AND INFANTICIDE. An unfortunate man named Edmund Hunt destroyed his own life and that of his iufaut child at Bath on Tuesday last. From the evidence it appeared that the deceased had a wife who was arrested on several occasions for shop-lifting. On going home on the evening ;u qUes_ tion.and on learning the misfortune w hich had again befallen Iiiru, lie drowned himself and his child in the river Avon. The wretched -nan was about thirty-seven years of age, and bore the highest character for sobriety and honesty, He was passionately attached to the in- fafit it) question. The jury return-d a verdict of Tem- porary nisai.ity. ER Sunday evening last a tro- liamea E izatieth Bradford, the wife of a joiner, as oeicci ed m an ""?"? to ?'?? her child, in the bopposite the quay, the child was rescued by a passer by, and it appearing that it was only carelessness upon her part, she was set at liberty. However, as it was ciscovered that two other of her children were mis- sing, the basin was dragged, and these bodies have been found. The ages of the children varied from eight to six. The wretched woman seems to be in a wild and fnmtic state. She and her husband have both been in distress. A coroner's iiiquest was held upon the hooies but the jury refused to give any other verdict than Found drowned." ILLEGAL LOTTERIES.—The Government instituted a prosecution against a Mr. E. J. Hill, for keeping an illegal lottery at Gloucester it was proved iik evidence that he uas the manager of a wheel of fortune, and that parties paying Is. had the chance of drawing a prize of 1 value ranging from 2d. to perhaps 5s. fir 10s. The I complaint was laid under the 42nd George III., c. 119, the defendant being there rendered liable to the penalty of £;i(,(), and also liable to punishment as a rogue and vagabond. Tbe defendant promised to discontinue the J lottery, and the case was tLerdorc dismisi-cd upon the payment of cost:"
