The Loan MA - ron said, that in consequence of the publicity which had been humanely given by the press to the robbery of the poor woman named Ann Preston, in a Hammersmith o!st nibus, he had received some contributions for her relief. Amongst the contributions he had received wa s the following "My Lord,—l took the liberty to enclose to your Lordship last Monday 51., with the signature 0. L.,' in consequence of the Mansion-house report ot the ease of Ann Preston, who had been robbed of her all in an omnibus, and of seeing that your Lordship had expressed your readiness to receive anything fur her towards the alleviation of her loss I hope you have re ceived my letter, and that your kind endeavours for her may succeed in making her some amends for her loss. I should think if she were to recollect herself she might call to mind whether she had mentioned to any person or persons her pos session of money, and her intention of proceeding by an omni bus to invest it, as those robberies are generally got up on in. formation and knowledge of the movements, &e., of those whoa it is intended to plunder. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, your obedient servant, " May 4th." " 0. L. The Loan illavoa observed that if the huniane writer of the letter had given his address, a letter of acknowledgment should have been sent to him the moment the money was re ceived. 5 i also fro' colquboto; Mr. EU ALL ADVETLTXSEMENTS OP A DISCUSTING CHATLACT.EH, on XMIYfORAL TENDENCY, AVE EXCLUDED rnom THE COLUMNS or "THE SUN."

GREAT SELLING OFF, by Mr. FOSTER, the ACCOUNTANT. MR. FOSTER has instructions to submit for SALE,in Lots, as prepared for Auction, 27,0001. worth of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the Stock adver tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET STREET and FARRINGDON-STREET, trading under the firm of HEBBLEWHJTE and CO., notice having been given that an auction is not permitted by the lease. Mr. Foster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods, begs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to realise more than half the original cost, tLe object being to clear the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must of necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli cited to make allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants, being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused to this method of selling goods over the counter. The following is about the reductions intended to be made.

Messrs' S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists, during a professional experience of thirty years, have had ample oppor tunities of verifying that the Organs of Sight and Hearing are sympathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that when the former becomes impe feet the sense of hearing becomes rapidly dull —this fact is admitted by sci entific authorities, and must be observable by mane thou. ands of individuals thus circumstanced—which is deserving the public's most serious attention. The Messrs. Solomons, with a view Se remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch of science, have succeeded in effecting for imperfect vial , n a most scientific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a preventive and cure for Deafness; they have in vented an Operative Voice Conductor, upon a very small construction, no'. perceptible ; it requires no holding, and the individual imme diately becomes one of the party in the general conversation. sy these important discoveries not only is defective vision brought to nature, but the sense of hearing is restored to its original acuteness ; those Lenses are so constructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such scientifie prin ciples, combined with the long extensive expe r ie nc e o f the MessrS.

On placing those lenses before imperfect vision, either by day or candlelight, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. The Messrs. Solomons have in their possession, without one exception, Spectacles and Ear Instruments of every kind which are offered to the public by other individuals, to point out the superiority of their improve. ments ever all others. The patronage of Nobility and Gentry, and recommendations of the principal.

CATALOGUE, with ENGRAVINGS (Gratis), POSTAGE FREE.—The celebrity of the rich and silvery appearance and extreme durability of the material made ex elusively by ourselves, has induced many attempts to foist upon the public the notoriously deleterious German Silver under the guises of " Albata Plate," " Berlin Silver," &c. g m , Against which we especially warn them. Aided by an eminent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material so that acids do not afiect it ; it is now so well known and appreciated that it is universally superseding silver in all its uses. The genuine metal, which is more durable than silver, can only be had at our warehouses. It is the same through out, and can be engraved and made in all the various articles that are in silver, from which it can only be told by reference to the stamp. Fiddle Threaded King's Pattern.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. YO USE OF LORDS. Ma t , 6. The House sat to-day to hear appeals. The Peers present were the Lord Chancellor, Lord Brougham, Lord Cottenham, and Lord Campbell. CHARTER V. SIR J. TREVELVAN. Sir T. WILDE resumed his reply to-day in this ease, and not haring concluded at four o'clock, the further consideration of the case was postponed to Monday. VICE-CHANCELLORS' COURT, May 6. His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of ENGLAND was occupied the whole morning with short causes'and unopposed petitions. (Before Vice-Chancellor WIGRA3I.) JOHNSON V. JOHNSON. In this cause, which was heard a few days since, his Honour made the following order :—" It appearing_ that a lease might be settled if the estate was sold, the Conrt orders that the estate be sold, without prejudice to the absent parties, if any." After disposing of several motions, totally devoid of interest, Counsel not being ready to proceed with the causes which were set down for hearing, the Court rose at half-past ten. COURT OF Q UEENS BENCH, May 6. The Middlesex Grand Jury came into Court this morning, having found one true bill. There being no other business be fore them, they were thanked for their services by Mr. Justice, Patteson and discharged. TUE QUEEN V. THY: LONDON AND CREFINIVICU AAZI.WAY COMPANY. In this case a rule had been obtained calling upon the London and Greenwich Railway Company to show cause why a mandamus should not issue, calling upon them to purchase the whole of the property of the Messrs. Slee, connected with their vinegar manufactory, on the west side of Church. street, Bermondsey. The property consisted of a brewery and vinegar manufactory, the dwelling-house, occupied by Mr. N. Slee, the resident partner, with a garden attached to it, ar d file small cottages occupied by different tenants. It appeared that the extension line of the railway passed within fifty feet of the house, and a part of the garden occupied by Mr. Noah Slee. By the 47th section of the Greenwich Railway Act it was enacted that inasmuch as premises might be deteriorated in value by the railroad passing near it, any per son having premises within fifty feet of the railroad should have the power of compelling the Company to purchase such property so situated, within fifty feet of the railroad; and by the 46th section, it was enacted " That if flee Company re quired to purchase any portion of certain property mentioned in a schedule annexed to the Act, the persons holding such land should not be required to sell such portiun unless the Company purchased the whole." The SOLICITOR-GENERAL, on behalf of the Company, showed cause against the rule, and contended that the Com pany were not compellable to purchase the whole property under the provisions of the 46th section. The Company were not desirous to take any part of it. But as the Messrs. Slee had called upon them to purchase all that portion within 50 feet of the railway, they were not bound to take more. The Company had made an offer without prejudice to take the whole of the dwelling-house and of the garden attached, but they refused to take the manufactory. And he contended that the Company were justified in their refusal, inasmuch as the case did not come within the provisions of the 46th section, because the Company were not desirous of purchasing any por tion of the property at all. He therefore submitted that the rule must be discharged. Mr. THESIGER and Mr. LISLE in support of the rule argued that the Greenwich Railway Company when they obtained their Act entered into a contract with the public, who were proprietors of land near which the railway was to pass, and that they must be bound by that contract. Now it as a portion of that agreement that they should take the pro perty within fifty feet of the railway, if the proprietors were desit ous of compelling them to do so. It passed within fifty feet of one po.tion of these premises, and these premises constituting one manufactory were an entir e ty, an d cou ld not b e severed any more than a house could be divided in two ; and, therefore, it was submitted that the mandamus must go. Lord DENMAN, in givin g judgment, sa id th a t it was t h e opinion of the Court that the 47th section did not apply to this ease, and that all that the Company could be compelled to do, was to purchase such portion of the premises as were within fifty feet of the line of Railway, under the provisions of the 46th section. That the Company were willing to do, and it did not seem to him that the words of the Act were large enough to compel the Company to do more. The Company had offered to purchase the premises withia fifty feet of the THEILIIEIMER V. COLEATCH. The plaintiff in this case was a merchant at Hamburgh, the defendant an eminent warehouseman at Globe-yard, Lower Thames -street, and this action was brought by way of trover, to recover two casks of bristles, warehoused with the defendant for the plaintiff. The statements on both sides at the trial were very conflicting. The principal witness for the plaintiff was Miss Mary Anne Theilheimer, his sister, who swore that she entered the goods at the defendant's ware house, in her brother's name. For the defendant, on the contrary, his clerk, Mr. Day, swore positively that Miss T., on entering the goods, gave her name Blumenthal, at the same time re questing not to acknowledge to any one that the goods were her's. Ile accordingly sent for the goods, and had them brought from on board the Neptune - from Hamburgh. Shortly aftewards he received a notice from the owners of the Neptune to detain the goods for freight, and subsequently two attachments were served upon the defendant from persons alleging that they had alien on the property. AlissTheillteimer, however, aware positively that she never gave the name of Blumenthal, and that thf entry in the name which was produced could only have been made by the mistake of the clerk. The Jury found for the plaintiff, and a rule was obtained to set aside the verdict as contrary to evidence. The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE this day, in giving judgment, said this was one of the cases in which the Court found great difficulty in deciding, but in which they ought to abide by the general rule, unless there was something pecu liar to make it an exception. It was impossible nut to say that the motion for a new trial involved a charge of perjury against Miss Thielheimer, and therefore the rule ought not to be granted on that ground, unless the preponderance of evidence was clearly against her. It was not denied that there was strong evidence on both sides, and it was not denied that the incongruity was pointed out to the Jury, leaving it to them decide to which witness they would give credit. They, therefore, having everything before them, and having decided one way upon that evidence, why should the Court send down the case for a new trial contrary to the ge neral rule? He thought the case ought to remain where it. was. Mr. Justice COLTMAN was not satisfiedthata. charge of per jury was made out against Miss Thielheimer, and he thought there was no ground for impeaching the verdict. A good deal of doubt might exist about the case at the time of the trial, but it had been fully submitted to the Jury, and lie was not prepared to say that they did not come to the right conclusion. Mr. Justice EItSKINE said there was a direct contra diction between the plaintiff's witness and Mr. Day, and the Jury believed her in preference. If he (the Learned Judge) had been on the Jury, he. might, from the evidence, have come to an opposite conclusion but still he could not sa y that the Jury were wrong , an d that ; here should be a new trial. Mr. Justice CRESSWELL concurred with the other Judges, and the rule for a new trial was discharged. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, May 5. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. TILDESLEY. This was an information, filed by the Attorney •General, against the plaintiff, for the non-payment of duty upon a quantity of bricks. The case had been tried before Lord Abinger at the sittings after the last term, and a verdict was found for the plaintiff. The Attorney-General had since obtained a rule calling on the plaintiff to show cause why a new trial should not be granted, on the ground that the Learned Judge, in charging the Jury, had used certain words which remained for their consideration as part of the evidence. 111 r. LEF., •n the part of the plaintiff, now applied for a dis charge of the rule, on the ground that in informations filed by the Crown, the Court never granted new trials, after a verdict had been returned for the defendants. The COURT, after hearing the argtutients on both side, stated that they should consider their decision in the case. NAY c. CUMLEY V. COWEN. This was an action brought against the defendant Isaac Cowen for the payment of a bill of exchange for the sum of 101., drawn by him for two months. The defendant was a Jew, and a dealer in small wares, residing in Saffron-hill; and the plaintiff was the representative of a Loan Society, by whom the money bad been advanced. The case was tried before the Under-Sheriff, and a verdict was found for the plaintiff. It appeared that on the trial the clerk of the Loan Society, who had given out the money, stated at first that Lazarus Cowen, a brother of the defendant, who was in Court at the time, was the party to whom he had advanced it ; while another witness stated that the defendant was the party on whom he had served the writ. The fact was, it seemed that the two brothers, who were very small men, bore a must ex traordinary resemblance to each other, and their very appearance had created great amusement in Court. In order further to mystify their adversaries, they had exchanged clothes with each other; when, however, both were placed together, the clerk corrected the evidence as to identity lie had at first aiven, and it was clearly proved that the defendant was the party to whom the money was advanced, although attempts were made to show, first, that he could not write at all, and next that the acceptance to the Bill was not in his handwriting. On a former day, Mr. LEE obtained a rule calling upon the plaintiff to show cause why a new trial should not be had, on the around that the evidence in the case was contradictory. The COURT, however, after hearing Mr. Thomas, for the plaintiff, enter into the details of the trial, discharged the rule. BAIL COURT, Mail 5. Mr. BVLES moved for a rule, calling on an attorney of the Court to show cause why he should not be struck off the roll for misconduct. He was employed by his client to recover money from a person, and he told his client that he had received only a portion of the money, whereas he had received the whole amount, and had given a receipt for it. He also re ceived money from another person, and represented, at first, that he had received no part of it ; but he afterwards acknow ledged that he got a portion, and no more. It subsequently appeared that he received the whole. It was sworn, likewise, that he received, in a certain prosecution, the costs of certain witnesses from the country, which he afterwards charged against his client; and, furthermore, that he pretended to have issued a writ, which was not the fact. Mr. Byles said, that as the person was an attorney, he did not apprehend that he could be indicted ; but, in the first instance, they thought it better to call on him to show cause why he should not be struck off the roll.--Application granted. ...MAY 6. (Before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE.) CHALL AND BRAY. Mr. WATsoN appeared to show cause against the rule obtained in this case. This action was originally tried before the Sheriffs of Wakefield in Yorkshire, and a verdict was given for the plaintiff. It would appear that the plaintiff and another person had made an agreement to run their hurses for a wager of 25/. on each side on the public road at Hudders field, and the plaintiff having failed to run his horse on the day appointed, the money which he depo sited was considered to be forfeited. But the plaintiff having objected to the person who held the stakes, brought his action against the defendant, and obtained a verdict for 15/., the money which was declared to be forfeited. There were two objections raised; one that the agreement to run the horses having been signed by a person of the name of Eastwood, who was represented as the agent of Challand, the action was misconceived. But the main question was whether the race was one of a legal character or not. Mr. WATSON contended that a race to trot for four miles on a public turnpike road was illegal, and referred to the statutes of the 16th of Charles 11., and the 13th and 18th of George 11. on the subject. He also contended that it was a nuisance, and that the most serious consequences might result, it such races were to be sanctioned. Mr. BAINEs appeared to support the rule, and referred to the Act of the 3d and 4th of Victoria, chap. Li, which repealed the statute of 13th of George 11., as far as it related to the subject of horse-sating, and quoted the case of Evans v. Pratt, when it was decided that a race of four miles across the country was not illegal. His Loensitir took time to consider the question. COUR7' OF BANKRUPTCY, May 3. THOMAS ROBINSON'S BANKRUPTCY. -THE LATE TALLOW SP ECU L AT lON. This bankrupt, whose case has been several times before re ported, appeared before the Court on his adjourned final exa mination. His present debts and liabilities are stated at 50,0001. and his assets about 5,000/. Mr. Maynard said the assignees were not yet satisfied with the bankrupt's accou n t s , w h ic h showed various discrepancies to a large amount. Mr. Bodkin said, however irregular the conduct of the bank rupt had been in not keeping books, he was sure the assignees themselves were aware that it was not intended as a cover to fraud. He had a bona fide intention in all that he had done, though lie had lost nearly 40,000/. in the tallow speculation, and the accounts he now presented were the best he could furnish. The bankrupt having entered into a detailed explanation of the discrepancies complained of by the assignees in his ac counts, said that up w a r d s o f a m illi on of ills had passed through his hands in the year; the stamp duty alone was up wards of 14,0001., and every one of these bills was entered in his bill•book. He had given his creditors every opportunity of testing his integrity and of the total absence of fraud in his ac counts. He wished to pass his examination as an honest man, or not at all. After some further conversation, during which it was stated that the bankrupt had no materials with which to furnish a better acconnt, 111 r. Commissioner MERIVALE said it appeared to him that the bankrupt could not give a better account, and as the as signees were satisfied no fraud existed, much as he depre cated the system of carrying on business without books, the bankrupt having sworn he had given the best account he could render, he thought he would be justified in allowing him to pass. The bankrupt was accordingly passed. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT; May .5. IN RE FREDERICK BUCK. The insolvent in this case was described as formerly of Long Lodge, Blenheim Park, gentleman, and subsequently of Bow common, manufacturing chemist. In the year 1834 he was discharged under the Act with liabilities and debts amounting to upwards of 14,0001. His petition to be discharged was supported by Mr. Cooke, and opposed by Mr. Woodroffe, on behalf of Mr. Benjamin Andrews. In his examination he stated that he was induced to enter upon the business of manufacturing chemist in Bow, at the suggestion of a person named Badcock, who acted as Ins foreman, and managed his business generally. This person contracted with the Charter Gas Company for the supply of a quantity of vitriol, but the terms of the contract were such, that the insolvent found it was attended with a great losss, and he consequently determined to give it up, and cease business. He then sold out the property upon the premises, and having met with a serious accident, upon his recovery he found Badeeck in possession of the premises, carrying on business, and receiving goods as usual in his (the insolvent's) name. Among the debts contracted by Badcock was the one forming the subject of the present opposition, upon which the insolvent was sued, BOW-STREET. In consequence of the indisposition of Mr. Hall, who should have sat to-day, Mr. Jardine consented to preside. A stout looking woman, with a baby in her arms. well known to the police as a mendicant, and who might frequently be seen in the Strand with two or three small children, was charged with being drunk and disorderly. Police constable, F 139, stated he was on duty on Wednesday night about 12 o'clock, in Dungannon-street, when he found the prisoner in a helpless state of drunkenness. He could not as certain from her where she resided, and he, therefore, deter mined on taking her to the station-house. She immediately became very violent, and he required the assistance of two po licemen to take her to the station-house. Mr. JARDINE said he wished that every person in the Strand who gave her money knew the use she made of it. Prisoner set up a very pitiful story, and Mr. JARDINE at last consented to let her go this time ; but he told her that the police should keep their eyes upon her, and if she werefound in such a situation again, she should go to gaol for a month. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. INDECENT OUTRAGE ON FEMALES.—James 21PLaren, a middle-aged man, who said be was a gentleman's servant, was placed at the bar on the following charge : con• stable No. 74 of the C division, stated that about half-past o'clock on Wednesday evening, as he was proceeding on duty along Jermyn-street, St. James's, he saw the prisoner, who was excessively intoxicated, throw his arms round the neck of a lady who was passing by him and attempt to kiss her, but being baffled in doing so, by the lady's exertions, he seized her round the waist, and committed a most grossly indecent annuli. Wit.. ness directly ran forward to secure him, but, before he could get up to him he had assaulted three other ladies in a similar manner, the last with great violence. The police constable said that on taking the prisoner into custody, be struck him (witness) a severe blow on the face. Mr. HA anwics: said he should impose a fine of 405., and, in default the prisoner would be committed for 14 days. CLERK EN WELL. One of the Deputies of the Sheriff of Middlesex made the following application to the sitting Magistrate. He stated that one of his constables had been sent to act as keeper, by virtue of an execution, in Bellevue -terrace. He had been brutally assaulted, having received several dangerous wounds on the head. Under these circumstances, he applied for a warrant against the parties. Mr. GREEN WOOD said that where a question of title was in volved, he could riot decide. All he could do was to send the matter for trial. He would recommend him to apply for . an at tachment to the Court of Exchequer. The officer stated that lie did not know the names of the de linquents, but had obtained a warrant fram the Magistrates in Bow-street under similar circumstances. Mr. GREENWOOD said, all he could do was to grant a war rant against the proprietor of the house, which the officer re. ccived. • WORSHIP-STREET. Joseph Johns, a young man of fashionable exterior, was charged with having created a disturb ance i n S p i ta l -square. Police-constable II 49, stated that shortly after one yester day morning he noticed a crowd of persons in Spital-square, amongst whom was the defendant, who had thrown off his coat, preparatory to engaging in a fistie e n coun t er w i t h one of the bystanders. He d es i re d the parties to move on, and the defendant's ant ag o n i s t i mme di a t e l y did so, b ut the defendant refused, and he was compelled to take him to the station-house. In his defence, the prisoner said that he was returning home from the City of London Theatre, when he met three men, one of whom insulted a lady who was under his protection, and he was about to chastise his insolence, when the policeman came up, and although he heard the man abuse hint in a gross man ner, he allowed him to depart, and took him (defendant) into custody. The Mag istrate considered th a t th e p o li ceman h a d not ex ' ceeded his duty under the circumstance?, but as the prisoner had already suffered sufficiently he should discharge hint. Yesterday Aaron Jones a milkman, and Mr. Joseph Shad. bolt, the proprietor of the Mitre Tavern in Aldgate, were charged with drunkenness and furious driving. Mr. Charles Hill, a gentleman residing in the New Kent road stated, that on the preceding evening he was driving through Shoreditch With his brother in a pony chaise, when he perceived the defendants approaching him from the opposite direction in a chaise, which was driven by the defendant Jones at the rate of eighteen or twenty miles an hour. He endea voured to avoid them by drawing up close to the kerb, •but a collision took place, and his brother and himself were thrown out on the pavement. They were both stunned by the fall, and on recovering themselves they found that their chaise was turned completely over, and that the off-shaft and wheel were broken. The defendants attempted to make their escape, but they were given into custody. Jones was ordered to pay a tine of 405., the utmost ponalty for furious driving, and also the amount of the damage, or, in default, to be imprisoned for three weeks. The other defen dant was fined ss. for being drunk. Both fines were paid. ROYAL ARTILLERY. Lieutenant-General Lord Bloomfield, G.C.B. and G.C. H. having expressed his desire to obtain from Mr. Jeffrey, the in ventor of the new composition for caulking and strengthening ships—with which the experiments were made a few days ago in the Marshes—some details of the nature of the materials and the experiments which had been previously made before it was tried by the Ordnance Department—Nlr. Jeffrey attended on Thursday at the Observatory, near the Royal Militaryßepository. Woolwich, and at one o'clock Lieutenant-Generel Lord-Bloom field, Colonel Paterson, Colonel Lacy, Colonel Cleaveland, and Colonel J. E. Jones, Assistant-Adjutant-General; Lieutenant Colonel Dancey, C. 8., Lieutenant-Colonel Blaehley, Lieute nant-Colonel Jackson, Lieutenant-Colonel the Hon. W. Ar buthnot, Lieutenant-Colonel Chalmer, Major Sandilands, Major Vaughan, Major Hope, Major Anderson, and Brigade- Major Cuppage, Captain Bloomfield, Royal Horse Artillery ; Captain Bent, Captain Grant, and a great number of the officers of the Royal Artillery, assembled in the large room to hear the explanations relative to this important discovery. Mr. Jeffrey commenced his details by exhibiting pieces of copper covered wiah the composition, to show that it was equally applicable to the preservation of metals from the effects of salt-water as it was to wood, preventing, when mixed with certain materials, the adhesion of barnacles or other shell-fish, so injurious to wood er to copper when not properly prepared, or which may, from some unexplained cause, have lest its power of protection from the attacks of ma , ine insects and shell-fisb. A block was next exhibited, fixed together, composed of three pieces, having on one side of the centre-piece about three-quarters of an inch of the composition, and on the other side a similar thickness of the substance at present generally used for vessels in the naval and mercantile service. This block had been submitted to a pressure of twenty-two tons, to show the effect that would be produced in very cold climates. The new composition, under that pressure, retained its softness, but the present caulking materials became as brittle as rosin, and could be broken into powder by the slightest strain or sharp blow upon it, whi:s would have no effect on the new composition. The two pieces of teak formerly referred to as having been joined together and tested with a strain of twenty-one tons, by the hydraulic ma chine in the dockyard, were then exhibited, and it was aston ishing to witness the strong and sound iron bolts of I i-inch in diameter, which had broken without the least symptom of the material with which the pieces were joined yielding to asunder.t !te great A power noth applied Another block, f bj object r c o e f hts:pin t j e s ; : r koe i iwt n snh g getjhoth t hja h naet e edrs na idet together, so as to present angles . which would be sure a a l i t n h s o t ug th h e it j had n uVbeninthwrohwatnNevrehfroiremhimtshthlee show D o c kyar d, tiie quickness feet with h t . o d g re iv c e eiv g e r d ea n t o force against granite tiit braelgo: fall D to o ri t n h g e g th ro e u t n i time exhibite d 11 7 1 ag r.

At half-past three o'clock the whole of the Royal Horse Artillery assembled in review order, and continued exercising until five o'clock, several of his Lordship's friends being pre-- sent on the occasion. SINGULAR Occ URREN CE.—Wednesday infonnfitien was forwarded to Mr. Wakley, the Coroner for Middlesex, of the following extraordinary occurrence, with a view to ascer tain if he considered it was a case which called for the trxereise of his judicial functions. A few days since Mrs. E'rizabetb Rogers, the wife of a respectable bricklayer, residing in Vine yard, Kentish Town, was standing in her kitchen, when she felt something crawling down her arm under her dress. She undid her gown at the wrist, and immediately discovered that the cause of her annoyance was a black beetle, to which she had a dreadful aversion. She brushed it off on the instant, but was at the same moment seized with a shivering, and was observed to shake violently from head to foot. She continued so for some minutes and then fainted. Mr. Sands, a surgeon in the neighbourhood, was sent for and prescribed for her, but she never recovered, and her death is attributed to the fright she sustained at finding the black beetle upon her person- DINEns Our, BEWARE !—ln the Court of the Juge-de-Paix, last Monday, was heard rather a sing filar ease, in which plaintiff and defendant were both English. The plaintiff had stood godfather to the defendant's sister, and was on habits of intimacy with the whole family; the consequence herun a g n f d rie fruit nd s was he frequently dined, particularly on th e S unday, with the defendant. In return, he sent vegetables from his garden to the lady, and she and visited sometimestook tea there. The t gentleman bei t n h g e and and considered w ea lth y , n o t doubt a codoeil in his will might remunerate for dinners or little attentions. In the meantime, however, the lady could not wait for the will, and, by way of instal ment, borrowed 250 francs which were cheerfully lent.
