It is proposed to erect a monument in Dublin to the memory of the late It chard Brinsley Sheridan, by the profits of a performance of two of his &von rite dramatic productions, at the theatre of that city. The monument of Shakspeare in Westminster Abbey was raised by the produce of a representation of Jo 'its, Ca ;fir, at Old Drury. Dreadful kiffects Gans;ng —A Captain in the Army, whose gallantry at IVaterloo gained the admiration of his brother Officers, having lost his all at a gimbling house on Thursday night, was found on Friday morning I,atizitz on rule of the ores in St. Lutes's Park. He MIS quite ileltb, and has left a most amiable wife and a huge young family to lament the fatal r !reds of has folly and imprudence. The dectaseil was at the Deasy ing.room m, Thtusday.—An inquest was held on rite body on Friday, when the evidence adduced, clearly the melancholy fact, that the deceased was itt the habit of s' • gambling houses, and had sunk into a state of great ilrj...ction on account of his Inise s; and it seemed probable that it was immediately after his departure front one of those ruinous receptacles of rascals and their dupes, that he committed suicide. \Ve select the following passage from the et idence, in the hope of its checking the propeasity to'gambling in minds where it has not yet risen is a habit:—The son of the gate keeper at St. James's saw several persons round the hotly at four o'clock in the morning; one of theta ; . a noted gambler, said, " Lo..k at his face: why, you hare forgot last night? don't you recollect hint now i" Witoess.had no doubt they were all gamblers. Verdict--lusanity. Chiltern I fundreds.—The acceptance of the office of Stewardship of this place vacates a seat in Par liament; but the notion that it is attended with profit is quite erroneous. Chiltern is a ridge of chalky hills,_ whiefterosses the county of Bucks, a little south of the centre, reaching from 'f ring, in Hertfordshire, to Henley, in the county of Oxford. This district belongs to the Crown, and for time immemorial has given rise to the nominal office of Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds. Of this offiee, as well as of the manor of East Hundred, in Berks, it is remarkable, that although frequently conferred upon Members of Parliament, it is not productive either of honour or emolument ; being grantet at the request of any Member of that House, merely to enable him to vacate his seat by the acoeptance of a nominal office under the Crown; and on this ac count it has frequently been granted to three or four different Members in a week. The famous edition of Boccacio, which, at the Duke of Roxburgh's sale, was bought by the pre sent Dolce of Marlborough for the enormous sum of 2,9.601. was on Friday purchased by Messrs.
