On Saturday night a number of persons were u &ambled at a wake is the top room of a house in Coleman-street. The floor gave way, and the hones fell, and 18 persons were killed on the spat. In the coarse of yesterday (Sunday), three other bodies were discovered, nuking a total of 21 killed. It is flared that many more will have been injured. The forged deed for 2,0001., on which the money has bees paid, has been Cowered in this city, and the forger, who is not minted, is a man who held a high position in society. Although the deed came over here from London the forgery was committed in Dublin, and the instrument bears an Irish stamp. Liquifies are in progress, as it is feared other for geries to a large amount have been oommitted. How ever, these frauds had no connexion with the late Mr. Etadleir. His Excellency the Earl of Carlisle, accompanied by the Duchess of Sutherland, the Marquis and Marchioness of Stafford, the Earl and Countess Grosvenor, and Lord Ronald Levee= Gower, paid a visit on Saturday to the Doke of Leinater at Carton, and returned to Dublin Castle in the afternoon; and this morning his Excellency, with his disting uished guests, will leave town by special train en the Drogheda Railway, and visit the beautiful seat of the Marquis of Conyngham at Slane Castle, and of Mr. Lambert of Beaupork, and the charming scenery of the Boyne, in the former locality. The viceregal party will return to Dublin in the afternoon. Mr. John McKenna, son of the late Mr. Thomu McKenna, assistant andersecretary at the Castle, has been inducted into his aloe in the department of the Chief Secretary. The only information to be obtained about the Tipperary Bank is of a negative kind, nothing about its affairs being likely to transpire until some public ing on the subject take place in open court. r° salio assured that It wu only an attack of bronchitis that induced Muter Murphy to have the examination of Mr. James Sadleir conducted at his (the Master's) private house, but that much valuable information was obtained rom Mr. Sadleir on the occasion. In the meantime there is nothing to in. duos a hope of more favourable results in the wind log up of this unfortunate concern. The consecration of the Right Rev. Dr. Walsh as Roman Catholic Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin, and of the Right Rev. Dr. Moran, as Roman Catholic Bishop of Grahamstown, Cape of Good Hops, took place yesterday at Carlow, Archbishop Cullen per. forming the ceremony, assisted by six other Roman catholic prelates. A CURIOUS SPECULATION. The Dublin Nation contain. a curious article, in which the writer declares his deliberate conviction that there exist runes of a solid reliable character for believing that Mr. Jobe Sadie& hes not committed suicide, hut has simply been playing the trick so well known, both ie history and romance,of a pretended death and a supposititionsoorpas. The following may be cited as the ground+ on which the writer bases his scepticism as to Ji ha Badleir's suicide : 1. While the dates of the letters written by Mr. Satoh , to his friends show that he meditated suicide a full week before he is supposed to have 'Meted it, he was it:lying all that week to get in mosey frem every source, and did re ceive large sums--sems on the day of his death—not a faes thirg of which has been traced cr accounted for. At the very blink of the grave, it is urged, when money ought natarally to cease to be valuable in his eyes, he was as intent as sun on acquiring it. 2. In Paris and Fonblanque's "Medical Jurisprudence" it Is laid down as a gerund rule that the more sudden the death the longer is cadaverous sante, from taking place. And it is farther stated as to causes of sudden death, " If a holy is such coats be cold and stiff, we may be certain that more than twelve hours have elapsed since the fatal event." The evidence at the inquest showed that in soy case Mr. &dick could not have reached Hampstead before 12 o'clock, at the earliest, and might not have reached it before half wit one at the latest ; and suppesing him to have really committed suicide, that event would have taken place at the earliest at half-put 12 o'clock, and at the latest at, say 2 o'clock. At • quarter before nine in the morning Poles man 8 323 found the body at Hampeteed, "quite cold and stiff." Mr. Nichol!, surgeon, gave similar evidence. 3 Doubtful Identifiestion of D ceased.—lt is remarked on this head that ail standard authorities on medical juris prudence saucer in inculcating a spirit of maks—say, even of scepticism, as to the identificatioa of parlous fund dead. Dr. Guy, in ha "Medical Jurisprudence," says, " We must beware of a hasty decision, and remember that the apparent canoe of death is not always the real one. It is not enough to see the objects which ectually preseat themselves to the eye. We must look for such as are not obvious at the first glance." And further, " And the place in which the body Is found, the first 111111t1011 is not to conclude too hastily that the spot in which a body is disco. , yawed is that in which death actually took place." Dr. Beck (" Medical Jurisprodenes," page 402) says: " Va lue the means of identification consists in scars, tattooing, or other indelible marks, evidence should be taken with the utmost poseible caution by the Airy, for very soon after death such a total change of the features takes place that it is impossible for the nearest relatives to recog nise theni."John Sadleir's body was removed, says the ert.cle, to the Hampstead workhorse, without having been ex amined by any competent wrath. Its sworn identification before the jury was, extraordinary to relate, not by any of the relatives, though they wets in toorn, but by a person named Mays, who had been in Sedleir's emtloyment but eighteen months. The body was sot identifhd by him by marks or peculiarities cf structere. One passage in the evidence of Mr. Norris, the solicitor, showed moreover, of what extremely little value was Elwys's evidence in this particular; for, while the latter states', that "he hod not observed eay change In his muter during the last month or two," and that his master's " manner on Satnr.lay was the same as usual," the jury are, on the contrary, informed by Mr. Norris, that Mr. Sarileir "latterly spuarel haggard, and that "he noticed an extraordinary change in his appearance during the last week," and especially on Saturday, Be. As to the identification of the body, It may, in addition, be net undeserving of remark, that the repute in the public press speak of a change in the features of the deceased, and of his lacking older than be really wu. 4. In the work of Dr. Taylor, the toxicologist, which &Meth, it is stated, had been perusing on the day of his death, is a discussion of the question as to whether dark hair can be artificially changed to light, and his account of sundry washes of recent invention which effectually pro duce the result. Most important, it is remarked, in coo melon with this feet, is the evidence of Elwyn, who do • posed to the jury—. Mr. fladleif had previously ;hat even. leg 'eked him to clean two bottles, and place them on the sideboard, which he did. He (witness) did not know that it was poison that he had to get at Mr. Maitland's. He thought it wu some ingredient in a hair wash, which his master was going to mix in the two bottles which had been placed on the sideboard. A man who had just posted letters stating hie intention to commit suicide, who had sent out for poison, who was racked with the burden of frauds, forgeries, tottering banks, and railways, was engaged as a prelude to his extraordinary end le pnper:ng a Bair wash. 6. The place where the body was found. Why should Sacildr, intending to make away with himself by poises instantaneous in its effects, trudge nut to Hampstead-heath, to the middle of the eight, for the purpose, first patting into his pocket a piece of paper to tell his name? A very intelligible purpose le suggested by the following bead of inquiry, extracted from a long list of such from the second volume of "Paris and Ponblanque's Medical Juirpnt dimes" : . . . . . 7 * hether the spot in question be of a description to ex plain the sense of the deceased haying been found them, or bow fa its retired simatioa emit.. the supicion that the body had been Named fee coneeilment or some other Purr..."

THE Bnmsm OeEXAN LEOION.—It is under stood that this solenoid force. which has been raised by Baron Biatterbeim to meet the exigencies of the war, will be sent, now that peace has been included, to the Cape of Good Kopf.

The justice and libe rality of thus disposing of the Germane is unquestionable. Most of the °Hien have thrown up their oommtssions and their prospects of advancement in the Austrian, Prussian, Hanoverian, and Bavarian armies, for the purpose of eeiviog England, and, having got sway with great difficulty, they would never be received back again into their tomer sir vice, and se for the men, if they were disbanded, thou • elude of them would no t be allowed to retain to their homes; and if they attempted to go beck they would be persecuted, if sot imprisoned, It is a matter cf grod policy sho to provide for and keep the German Legion to our ser v.to, fir on any future emergency, cut orwest, they would be available ; and the fact of their having been so liberally dealt with will have the very ben effect throughout Ger• many, from which, should smother war arise, treble the numbtr of men might be easily recruited.—Herold.
