I told the prisoner that I did not believe he was a constable at all, when ho said " Look at my trousers and boots." I told him that notwithstanding that I did not believe ho was what he represented him self to be, and that I should go with him to Marylebone lane. Upon this ho said, " Don't do that," and was about to go away when I took him to Marlborough-mews station, but not without a refusal on his part to go. On the way to the station be said he had been in the police, but had been dismissed a month ago. Mr. Knox—Are there many people about that part of the park at that time of night ?

The work of art, which was palmed upon an admiring world by one M. Nicellet, and represents the death of St. Joseph, is now being exhibited at Berlin, where it has given occasion to another discovery more curious than its own. The Berlin critics, justly renowned for their learned scepticism, speedily recollected seeing an engraving of the would-b e s t rang er among the treasurestrel y of the Royal Mu seum. Th e co py i s not only entirely for nt devoid of any leg en d i n allusion to Raphael, b the more effectiv e ex posure of the hoax,, name of the well-known Maratta, who died about the earo the be ginning of the last century, and, although a painter rto o a f o c y m o - f siderable merit, has not been hitherto co_tnerpaun. the Coryphees of the art.—Letter fro m I f AN AMUSING MISTAKE. — A gnt l ema n of Doual was going out in his carriage to make some calls with his h a d left his visiting wife, when he discovered that il cards.

This was an action to recover £2, the value of a coal alleged to have been lost through tho negligence of one of defendant's waiters. Mr. John Layton, jun., appeared for the plaintiff, who is one of the committee of tho Westmoreland and Cumberland Wrestling Society; and Mr. Warton (instructed by Mr. G. 0. Nash) fbr defendant, proprietor of the well-known Hornsey-wood House. It appeared that on last Good Friday plaintiffs society hired the defendant's grounds for £25. Mr. Stones granted a room in the tavern for the use of the committee, and his waiters attended to it. Plaintiff alleged that he delivered his coat to one of these waiters about 12 o'clock, and he asked another waiter for it when he left. He never complained to either Mr. or Mrs. Stones until a month afterwards, and then they denied all knowledge of it. No one was allowed in the room but the waiters and members of the committee. His Honour would not trouble Mr. Warton to answer such a case. It was evident plaintiff had not himself taken reasonable care in inquiring after his coat ; and it would be stretching the law rather too far to make innkeepers liable under such circumstances. Therefore the verdict would be for the defendant, with costs. MARKETS-THIS DAY. COVENT GARDEN.

By Fredrika Bremer. Trans lated by Mary Howitt. 2 Vols. Hurst and Blackett. , Mies Breme r ' s wor k could scarcely have appeared aa more opportune moonlit. Recent eveuts in Greece have caused attention tube strongly directed towards that co un t ry , and i ts future career offers a wide field for speculation. That it will once more become great and flourishing there can he little doubt. The higher classes are still distinguished by intellectual activity; the lower orders are re maikahle for frugality and industry. The beauty of the country is not more striking than its fertility, and nothing but the development of its resources by a wise and liberal government is wanting. Still this will be a work of time. Rome wasnot built in a day; and Athens must not expect to reach even a faint approximation to her former splendour for many a year to come. Miss Bremer's visit to the country appears to have been made under extremely favourable circumstances. She was in troduced at Court, was amply provided with introductions, and the King placed his yacht at h.r service that she might conveniently visit the Greek Islands. Her first impression of Athens was that of surprise at the " richly verdant vineyards and olive groves" that surrounded it ; and with reference stcoentehrn sheeexhi sayslaratin : L , e , ffects of Greek climate and B the only on e w h om I heardu M t remr.aVrkonthFat-life in hs this t country is found to be easier than in any other on the face of the earth. The very exterior of the people, their easy and quick movements, their en terprising, vivacious, and gay temperament, seem to show this, as does also their propensity for levity. The pure air, the abu n d ant sunshine the lovely climate, and more than all th e rest, the richly -varied scenery of hill and valley, land and sea, which in a thoueand bays and creeks, islands and capes, play fully embrace each other, as it were, all contribute to the same cause. When heaven and earth are so beaming with light and beauty, man may be readily tempted to forget that life has a higher object than mere enjoyment. There is a lyrical tone in both nature and history here which resembles dithyram bic inspiration. The rocks rise up boldly from the valleys or on the coast, forming natural altars and pyramids. Upon these altars of nature the Greeks have erected their sacred edifices and temples to the heavenly powers which descended to the earth as protectors or givers of victory, to Zeus, Poserdon, Apollo, Pallas, Athena. The temples of Athens are the offspring of inspiration ; those of Rome are the product of imitation." One of the most interest ing of Miss Bremer's excursions from Athens was that to Arcadia. " Towards evening," she says, "the mountains opened, and we drove down into an extensive gloriously-verdant plain, surrounded in the distance by hills, on the lower terraces of which lay picturesque villages or towns. It is the plain of Tegea and Tripolitza. We are now in Arcadia. The evening sun beams in beauty over the country, the hills shine in purple splendour. We bound lightly along over the wide champaign, amongst large vineyards and cultivated land, planted with maize, tobacco, and potatoes. Bushes of blossoming oleanders indicate here and there the course of a rivulet. On the delightfully level road we frequently meet country people, mostly young women and men, with handsome counte nances, gay and chetrful expression, all indicative of health, cleanliness, and prosperity. The com plexion of the girls is like milk and cherries. We are evidently in Arcadia. We could not pos sibly have imagined Arcadian shepherd and shep herdesses to be handsomer." But Arcadia is not wholly of this pleasant type. Much of the mountain scenery is gloomy and rugged, the river Styx rises there, and in the loftier districts the winter is severe, and snow and hail of frequent oc currence. Leaving Arcadia, the author then visited Sparta, M) come, and Corinth, and her next excur sion was to the Greek Islands; when she touched at CEgina, Syra, Naxos, and the holy island of Delos. The latter is now a deserted heap of ruins. The author says, " We devoted the whole morning and forenoon to rambling on the island. It was an interesting but a sorrowful excursion over the ruins and debris of its former Magrilficence, You can scarcely take a step without treading on pieces of broken clay vessels, often bearing upon them the traces of fine painting, or on fragments of marble. In three or four places several broken fluted columns are still standing, with their beautiful pedestals and their ornamental capitals lying on the ground. These remains are partly of bine gray and partly of white marble." At Naxos, the island of Ariadne, the author made some stay, and was delighted with its beauty though dissatiSfied with its isolation, though indeed this characterises all the rernott r parts of Greece. It wants railroads and steamers, for at present communication seems uncertain in the extreme. Other excursions were made by the author to Thessaly, Delphi, and Thebes, concerning all which she has much to say. that is novel and in teresting. Her remarks too upon the Greek cha racter are extremely pertinent, for although sympathising warmly with the aspirations of the people she is not blind to their def€cts. The work is full of most vivid and picturesque descriptions of Greek life and scenery. It has been very agreeably translated by Mary Hewitt, and it cannot fail to delight all into whose hands it may fall. Mistress and Maid. By. the Author of "John Halifax, Gentleman," &c. 2 vols. Hurst and Blackett. .. If our "Domestic Institution" differs, in some respects materially, from that of America, it in others possesses a degree of similarity. Servants are regarded by many of their employers as if they scarcely belonged to the same race. They are looked upon and treated as in every sense inferior, 'and, as an inevitable consequence, there is antagonism between the two instead of sym pathy. To draw attention t 3 this state of things, and to point out the advantages of mutual help between mistress and maid, is the motive of this tale, which is unpretending in form, deals for the most part with everyday incidents, but is by no means devoid of pathos. Elizabeth Hand, as the maid is called, and who, the author intimates, is drawn from life, is an awkward country girl of about fifteen, who makes her debut as servant to the three Misses Leaf. These are reduced gen tlewomen, who are forced to eke out a scanty income by keeping a. children's school in a country town, and who, up to the advent of Elizabeth, had been forced to do their work themselves. Upon the eldest, Johanna, had fallen the chief of the domestic drudgery ; the second, Selina, is an invalid and fine lady, and the youngest, Hilary, is handsome, accomplished, and attended principally to the pupils. Finding that Elizabeth, though clumsy, was willing, Johanna and Hilary took her under their especial charge, bore her fail ings with fortitude, developed her good qualities by counsel and sympathy, and had the satisfaction of finding her turn out a very paragon of servants. For the sisters Leaf are far from being exempt from trials. Impoverished by the extravagance of their father they are now worried by the reoklessness of an only nephew, who having been supported by the generosity of a rich godfather, Mr. Ascott, winds up by forging a cheque and disappearing ; and as they have moved to London with the view of bettering their condition, and fail to obtain em ployment, they are soon in a state little short of destitution. Fortunately, however, Hilary meets with a good Samaritan in the shape of a Scotch woman, Miss Balquiddar, who e mploys her as superintendent of a business. Selina mar ries the wealthy Mr. Ascott, who had been for ma n y y ear s devoted t o her charms, and Elizabeth g oes with her to reside in Russell-square. Here s h e has h e r own peculiar i troubles. Her lover, Toni Cli ffs , is false to her, and her mistress, Selina, then devotes herself, her care.

De la Rue's Red Letter Diaries, It is hardly possible to praise adequately the Red Letter Diaries just published by the Messrs. De la Rue. In beauty of workmanship, compactness of arrangement, and general information, they will be found unrivalled, while the convenient form and different styles in which they are offered to the pub. lie will insure them the most extensive patronage. Those intended for the pocket are exceedingly beautiful ; those for the desk or library table are appropriate in size and form, while those for the card case are perfect little gems. The diaries of Messrs. Do la Rue are not merely mart little volumes, calculated to catch the eye ; they are, in fact, as useful as ornamental, and in every way fitted for the purposes for which they are intended. Mr. .Tones's One Hundred Lectures. Mr. Jones continues his self-imposed task of pub lishing one hundred lectures on the Ancient and Modern Dramatic Poets with the greatest success. To those who have had the pleasure of reading the numbers already published it is needless to say a word in recommendation ; but as doubtless there are many who have not experienced the same gratifica tion, wo most cordially recommend a perasal of the entertaining papers. They aro the writings of a gentleman who has the subject at heart, and fully understanding how to treat it in all its bearings. The lectures are well calculated to afford to a large circle of readers much information, and, on comple tion, they will be found extremely useful with refe rence to disputed points in connection with the Drama both ancient and modern. TVAII UPON THE _RAILLOAD. Colonel Barton, of the Federal army, reporting to headquarters at Hilton Head the result of an expedition to destroy part of the Charleston and Savannah railroad, states that he proceeded with 350 men up the Coosahatchie river, and disembark ing near the town of that name and taking a 12- pound howitzer with him, trade for the railway. " When about a mile from the village," he writes, " the whistle of a locomotive was heard. The con traband who was our guide said it was the dirt train, but a few moments proved that he had ' , 11 i,. informed me. As the train approached I directed a rapid and heavy fire upon it with grape and canister and musketry. This fire was very destructive. The train consisted of eight cars, six of which were plat forms crowded with men, and two cars C.lled with officers. There were also two light field pieces on board. Many were seen to fall at the first fire (among them the engineer), and 25 or 30 jumped from, the train, most of whom were maimed or killed. The rest with one exception, betaking themselves to the woods and swamps on the other side of the track. sword o e ar rcarriedand mc oa a sp w t a a y y n do rifles, d s t e a s t n r ad o n y od e f d es ohe secured re s a d b b o oe u nl t oe n 3 go o i is fin s g t c sand n r: d os the Whippy Swamp Guards.' We left a number of the enemy's dead and wounded on the track. I have since learnt from the Savannah papers that among the killed at this point was Major Harrison, of the 11th Georgia Regiment, which regiment, with the guards named above, were on the train. Immediately after the train had passed Captain Eaton, by my directions, set vigorously to work tearing up the railroad track, and continued this until the retreat was sounded." A force was approaching nearly double his number, and he be gan his retreat to his boats, and by destroying the bridges as soon as he had passed over them, suc ceeded in re-embarking with no other casualty than one lieutenant seriously wounded. WRECK OF THE NATAL MAIL STEAMER WALDENSIA IV. (From the Cape Argus.) This serious casualty occurred on the ninth of Monday last, October 13, and was occasioned, it is supposed, by the vessel being carried by the current out of her course and upon the Struys Point reef, where in twelve hours she broke up and became a total wreck. The passengers, crew, and mails, were landed safely, but everything else was list. The vessel left Algoa Bay on her return trip to Cape Town at one a.m. on Saturday, October 11. She encountered severe gales, and at noon on gunday put into St. Frances Bay for shelter. In the evening she proceeded on her voyage, but again experiencing strong head winds, on Sunday morning early put into Plettenberg's Bay, where she remained until the afternoon. The following day, Monday, the 13th, was fine, and tolerably good way was made, the ship going about seven knots an hour. In a letter to Captain Murison, of the firm of Deane and John son, the agent of the ship, Captain Joss, who had com-' mended her ever since she was launched, says :—" I passed Cape Infanta about half-past six last Monday night, about seven to eight miles off the land, and steering any usual course for L'Agulbas Point light. The night was very hazy, and about half-past nine I went off the deck, leaving the second mate in charge. I said to hint, ' Keep a good look-out for ships,' as it was dark, and a light south-cast with the square sails set. 1 did not leave the deck to turn in, but I went down to read, and about ten p.m. I fell asleep, and about eleven p.m, the ship ran on the reef, going about seven knots. I jumped on deck and was for a minute quite taken aback, as I thought we were so far off the land. I tried to back astern, but found her so fast that she would not move, the bottom soon got holed, the water came iu and put the fires out." Knowing the place, Captain Joss sent the second officer to a boat to look for the landing-place, the direction of which he knew. Fortunately, the officer succeeded in finding it, and in the course of an hour returned to the ship,when the debarkation of the passengers, who, with the crew, num bered upwards of 120, commenced. There wet° 16 ladies on board, several of whom had young children with them, and they were first sent off in two boats under the charge of the first and second officers, and happily were all landed safely, but very wet, as they had to wade through the surf to the shore, and many of them only partially dressed. There they were left alone until joined by the freight of the next two boats, despatched under the care of the carpenter and the boatswain, which consisted of the old men and elders, some of whom after landing succeeded in lighting a fire. Then the younger men were sent off, and finally the crew. All the passengers were landed by daylight on Tuesday morn ing, notwithstanding the darkness and the fact that two of the boats were stove. At seven o'clock the fishermen who live on the opposite side of the bay went off in their whale boat, and in it Captain Joss took the mails ashore. The water was then gaining rapidly upon the ship, the sea was getting rough, every wave breaking right over the vessel, and nothing could be got out of her. At eleven o'clock the captain and chief officer again went off to the vessel, to see if any of the personal effects of the passengers could be saved, and they succeeded in getting a few things out of the saloon. But the sea was very rough, and they were able to remain on ioard the vessel only a very few minutes. The port side of the vessel had been stove in, and in ten minutes after they left the mainmast went over the side and the ship broke into two parts. There was a valuable cargo on board in addition to the personal effects of the passengers. The Christy Minstrels were amongst the passengers. They lost all their instruments and dresses ; and Joe Brown, the celebrated American dancer, lost his prize belt and a considerable sum in cash, which were below in his box. But perhaps the most seri ous loss of all, in the sense of being irreparable except at cost of considerable time and great labour, as well as ex pense, is that which bofel Captain Bailey, of the Royal Engineers. Ho had just completed the trigonometrical survey of the coast, and excepting a strip of the coast which he had previously given to Lieut. Skede all his plans, calculations, and memoranda have gone down with the wreck. All the inland data are said to be irrevocably lost. He had been engaged upon the work for four years.

The iniry itto the eireutts°taßnlc death of Eb enezer Tye, the polic eman els att e nd in g Nov. wo 2 was q u he es murdered at Halesworth, Suffolk, on Tuesday last, was closed l ast n i ght. A variety of circumstances tending to implicate the prisoner, John Ducker, were deposed to. Thus it was proved that mud and duckweed had been found on his clothes resembling that upon the deceased ; that he had been seen re moving blood from his waistcoat with a piece of flannel, &c., while it was shown that on Tuesday night the prisoner and the deceased had been talk ing loudly together, as if engaged in an alterca tion. When taken into custody the prisoner was suffering from a violent blow across the nose, and his eyes were much swollen, whilst on the top of his head his hair was matted and clotted with blood from a wound. Mr. F. Haward, surgeon, stated that when he was called to examine deceased's body the face presented a livid appearance; the stomach contained a small quantity of food, mud, and water ; and although there was a contusion on the forehead sufficient to have caused insensibility, Mr. Haward was of opinion that the death of the deceased resulted from asphyxia, occasioned by immersion'in water. The blows observable were quite sufficient to have caused insensibility, and would not have been occasionad by a fall into water. The prisoner stated that the injuries observed upon him had been sustained when he was chopping wood ; but Mr. Mtwara stated that this explanation was quite an inadmissible one, having regard to the appearances noticeable. The jury returned a verdict to the effect—" That the deceased came to his death by violence, and that he was wilfully murdered by John Ducker." The c oroner accordingly committed the prisoner for trial at the next Suffolk assizes on the ch.arge imputed to him. ivo 100 - p er g at .ver stay' L bjo Po tici o fLlr [OOP _TV 0 ,- , 6"o ra ;A ota t 33 at if 0 t og ,i 4 5/3' de° lll 0:aa o ,- _;„ 2s.
