The scene is laid in London, in 1691, and Mr. Pyefinch, who is, as he informs us, a native of York, in Yorkshire, fancies himself calculated to cut a figure in the world, and is exceedingly desirous of getting a place under Government. He cares not what it is—any thing, from a commander-in-chief to a beefeater, would suit him. He is, moreover, a suitor for the hand of a certain Jessie llmald (Miss J. Bennett), a pretty Scotch girl, whose lover, Sir W. Melrose (Mr. Holl) is obliged to reside abroad, as a suspected Jacobite. There is a certain Mistress May love (Miss Telbin), a favourite of William the Third, a pa troness of Pyefinch, and a friend of Melrose, who has returned to London secretly, in order to endeavour to save his property from the grasp of an old usurer. Pyefinch over-hears Mrs. Maylove call him William, jumps at the conclusion that he must be the King, treats him as such with most laughable entre marks of respect, feasts him, lends him money, even GOODWOOD, 1815.

The following is the official report of the proceedings be fore the Stewards of the Jockey Club . " The Stewards of the Jockey Club having attended at Messrs. Weatherby's office in Burlington -street, on Saturday, the 31st of May, and, by adjournment, on Monday, the 2d of June, to hear a charge brought by Mr. Gully, against J. F. Bloodsworth and William Stebbins, of having conspired to bet against Old England for the Derby, in connexion with Wil liam Day, and through information clandestinely derived from him, and subsequently to lame, or by other means to prevent the said horse running for that race, having heard the confession of W. Day, and the evidence of W. Barrett, jun., and of J. Day, sen. are satisfied that M essrs . Bl oo d sworth and Stebhings did conspire to bet against Old England ; that communication nas kept up by Stebbings Writing letters through Bloodsworth to William Day, which letters were sent under cover to William Barrett, jun., of Stockbridge, for several months. It appeared that William Day and William:l3arrett, jun., did, on different occasions, meet ntebbings at Bloodsworth's house in London, and at other places, to carry out th e i r pl ans . I t was also po sitively stated by William Day and NVilliam Barrett, jun., that Stebbings did at 13loodsworth's house recommend that the horse's foot should be bruised by striking it with a hard stone, or by tying a handkerchief round the leg, and striking the sinew with a stick, and if that was not sufficient, that he, Stebbings, could easily get a powder, which, being mixed with the corn, would stop him. They added that Bloodsworth was averse to the last part of this proposal, saying it was a lagging affair. Messrs. Bloodsworth and Stebbings denied the whole story of having desired William Day to maim the horse, but admitted that they had betted largely against Old England, in consequence of the information they had obtained from William Day, and Stebbings acknowledged that he had received full information from William Day for several years past as to the qualities and condition of horses in John Day's stables, and had betted largely for himself and for Wil liam Day in consequence of such information, " The Stewards therefore order— " That J. F. Bloodsworth, William Stebbings, and William Day, be warned off the course at Newmarket, and out of the Coffee-room-yard there ; and that William Day be not per mitted to ride in any race at Newmarket. " They also recommend the proprietors and stewards of all race-courses where the rules of the Jockey Club are in force to prevent them appearing on such courses. STRADI3ROKE Signed ROSSLYN (for the Marquis of Exeter) GEORGE ANSON." rives up Jessie Donald at his command, and then corig,rattl A principal: feature in this: undertaking is th; erection at tke Old, or Aust, Passage, of a fixed bridge across the estuary of the Severn, adapted as well for railway traffic as for ordinary carriage and pe destrian intercourse. By the construction of this bridge, and the in tended Ihie of railway its connexion with it. two most important objects will be attained; first, there will be established, by means of a junction at Hereford with the proposed lines north of that city, a direct, unbroken line of railway communication between Bristol and Liverpool, with a saving in distance of about forty-two miles over the present route; and, secondly, there will be opened a free com munication between the southern and western portions of England, on the ono hand, and Monmouthshire and South Wales ea the other. These important districts have hlthertO been practically severed, and only rendered accessible to each other by a most inconvenient ferry, dependent on tides and weather. The want of a fixed bridge over the Severn, at the point !Mended by this company, has long been severely felt, and it would be impossible, whether in reference to na tional or local interests, to over estimate the importance of a scheme designed to supply this want. It has not, however, been from a consideration of its impracticability that such a work has not loag since been accomplished. In the year 1825 Mr. Telford, the late ce lebrated engineer, was consulted upon the subject, and gave a most decided opinion in favour of it, particularly adverting (amongst other causes affording facility) to the great height of the banks at the Old Passage, to the fact of the bed of the river consisting wholly of solid rock. and to the circumstance that suitable materials for the work could be procured within a reasonable distance. The engineers of the present proposed work, as well as other en gineers of eminence, are equally confident of the thorough practica bility of the undertaking. Until recent (lines, and before the period had arrived when railway traffic and profits had reached their present astonishing extent, the expense of this bridge compared with the probable traffic returns, naturally retarded ha projection; but now, when works equally difficult and expensive, such as tunnels and viaducts, are readily con structed by railway companies for the mere traffic of their line, and sometimes only to avoid a comparatively trifling deviation, it will be at once admitted, that with a view merely to the formation of a direct lino between Bristol and Liverpool (without looking to col lateral or ultra-terminal advantages), the magnitude of the under taking is no longer to be regarded as an hnpediment to its com pletion. sates himself that the King and I have cat, and drank, and hobnobbed together, so that the place will most as suredly follow as a matter of course. The acting of Buck stone in the feasting scene was grand. Never has etiquette run mad been more superbly represented, and the self-satisfaction with which he talks about the King and I, is rich in the extreme. Superb, too, was the contempt with which he treated Burchell (Jas. Bland), the Minister's Secretary, who comes to pump him concerning Mistress Maylove, and his stare of astonishment when he discovers, which he does, by being arrested as a traitor, that his King is Sir William Melrose, and that he has actually lent money to redeem the very estate which he and the old usurer were to share between them, was magni ficent. Of course, Melrose's innocence is proved, and he is married to Jessie, according to the prescribed practice in all such cases, and Master Pyefinch gets a promise of payment. The house, which was a bumper, was in a roar the whole time Buckstone was on the stage , and amidst the loudest ap plause he announced The hen! and I will appear every night. BRITISH AND FOREIGN INSTITUTE. RESOLUTIONS, founded on the REPORT and BALANCE SHEET real at the General Meeting of the Members of the BRITISH and FOREIGN INSTITUTE, on Saturday, the 31st of May, and carried unanimously. Right Hon. the EARL of DEVON, in the Chair. Proposed by JAMES SIMPSoN, Esq. ; Seconded by Captain MACONOCHIE, R.N. " 1. That the Report and Balance-sheet now read be adopted, and printed for general circulitton among the Members ; and that the suggestions and recommendations of the Committee, contained in the Report, be approved and carried into execution." Proposed by Lord JAMES STUART, M.P. ; seconded by Z. A. JESSELL, Esq. " 2. That the pesltlon attained by the Institute, at the dose of this, the second year of its existence only, is highly satisfactory, as show ing, that notwithstanding all the difficulties, opposition, and pre judices with which it has had to contend, its present income has been made to cover its actual expenditure: and that the value'of its as sets greatly exceeds its liabilities." POLICE IN TELLIGENCE. AIANSION-HOUSE. Yesterday a man, named William Laonard, was put to the bar charged with having caused an explosion of gas in a public-house in Petticoat-lane, on Saturday last, and injured Mrs. Reeing, the proprietor of it. At about twenty minutes past eight o'clock on Saturday night the prisoner and another man walked into the parlour of the house, accompanied by a female, and the landlady stated to them that she did not allow women to go beyond the bar. She knew the men, and entertained a very indifferent opinion of them. Soon after the party went away the landlady went into the parlour, and saw that the gas apparatus h a d been dragged away, and .he procured a cork to stop up the hole fi om which the gas was escaping. The moment she applied the cork the expicsion took place. The windows were blown out of the lower part of the house, the landlady was blown off the table On which she had been standing, and a man who was in the room with her was knocked down by the fall of the door, which was forced from its hinges by the violence of the shack. The landlady ran out in a dreadful condition, and with her cap on fire, and was conveyed to the ho3pital. The prisoner said that he certainly had been in the house on the night in question, but he had no idea whatever of anything but what was right. The prisoner was remanded till Monday next. QUEEN-SQUARE: A SHAMELESS WlFE.—Yesterday, Edward Quinten, a big powerful fellow, described as a sailing master of a small coasting vessel, and Mary Ann Ventris, a smartly-dressed and pretty looking female, about 28 years of age, were placed at the bar charged with felony. George Ventris, the husband of the female, a respectable looking little man, apparently sixty years of age, stepped into the witness-box and said —"I charge the prisonet with running away with my wife and property. I want to know whether he has a right to come down tfl state - mr. 150 ND aesirea nun to state tne circumstances of the ease. PropOsed.6y E. W. PENDARVES, Esq., M.P.; seconded by tho Rev. J AMES ST. AUBYN. " 3. That though the Annual SUbscriptions to the Institute were originally fixed at too low a scale for the varied advantages and plea sures which it ofiers to the Members, it is thought best to continue them for the present, without any change, the Council relying on the efforts of the Members generally (now that all doubt of success and stability is removed) to exert themselves in their respective circles, by correcting misapprehensions, and making the real merits and attractions of the Establishment more generally and more accu rately known, so that by constantly increasing numbers, the Income may be proportionately improved, without any addition to the"exist r ing rates, and the funds be thus made adequate to accomplish all the improvements contemplated and desired." Proposed by Sir GEORGE STAUNTON, 'Bart.; seconded by GEORGE WILBRA UAW', Esq. " 4. That one of the most effective modes of making extensively known the nature and character of the Literary Proceedings of the institute, will be to give the widest possible circulation to the First Volume of its transactions, in which these proceedings will be fully and faithfully recorded :—and that as this will be well calculated to convey accurate information into circles where much misapprehension may prevail, it is strongly recommended to the Members generally to promote its circulation accordingly." • The recent decision of the Admiralty against the proposed bridge at the Hock Crib, twelve miles hither up the estuary, leaves the Attst Passage the only practleable point ror a fixed bridge. ArrtMgements have been 'concluded with his _„ Grace the Duke of Beaufort, and the other proprietors of the Aust Ferry, whereby the purchase of that important interest hat been secured to this Com pany. The line, which be about forty-eight miles in length, will com mence at Bristol, and proceed to the Aunt Passage, there crossing the proposed bridge to I3eachley, it will run northward along tho valleys of the Wye and Monnow by Chepstow, Tintern Abbey, and Mon mouth to Hereford, which city will form the other t e r m i nus o f th o . . _ Proposed by WYNN ELLIS, Esq., if.P. ; seconded by Brig.-Gen. Sir HENRY PTIYN. " 5. That the four classes of members, as at present arrrarged, be in all future entries limited to two only ; namely, town members and country members ; the former to include all who reside or who have establislunents in London, or within seven miles of the General Post office, or who remain in town for more than two months at any one time, and make use of the Institute during any part of that period ; and the latter, to embrace all who live beyond that distance, who have no establishments in tiro metropolis, and who do not remain in town beyond the specified period." line. At Hereford the direct Chain of communication to Liverpool will be completed by the lines now projected between those places. It is obvious that this route will furnish to tho west and south-west of England the best and most direct means of communication not only with Liverpool and the north of England, but with Dublin and the north of Ireland. ETON COELEGE REGATTA. This annual festival attracted, as upon all former occasions, a g• eat number of distinguished families to Windsor and Eton yes terday. As soon as " absence" had been cilia' at the college, the whole of the school, now amounting to between 700 and SOO, dashed off to the Biocas, where the most admirable arrangements had been made, under the superintendence of Luttrell (ma.) the captain of the boats, for the accommodation of the numerous corn. patsy there assembled, and the prevention of accidents.

To Bristol itself the value of the project eannot be over -estimated. It will secure to that ancient city the continuance of its long-enjoyed position, as the emporium of commerce in the west. It is proposed to connect the line with the forest of Dean, by which means the vast mineral resources of that district will be developed to an extent hitherto unattained.

The husband then entered into a detail, by which it appeared that on the 17th of May, during his temporary absence from home, the female prisoner decamped, taking with her a large quantity of wearing apparel. As the male prisoner had been seen in the neighbourhood at the time he suspected that she had gone off with him, and having come to London and given information to the police, his wife was found on board the pri soner's vessel, at Chelsea, on Tuesday evening, and the wear ing apparel in the cabin with her. Mr. BOND—The wearing apparel, I suppose, was such as she required for her own use ? The husband—Yes, sir, and a great deal of it too. -• Has he a right to take my wife away ? That's the charge I make against him. Mr. BOND discharged the wife, and called upon the man to enter into his own recognizances to appear again on Monday, to give the husband an opportunity of producing further evi dence if be could procure any against him. The husband—Can't you hold him to bail, to prevent his eloping with my wife again? Mr. BOND said he could not. Tho promoters have not been unmindful of the projected lino of the Bristol and South Wales Junction Company, from Bristol to the passage; and if satisfactory terms of arrangement can be made, whereby the formation of that portion of the line can, consistently with the interests of this undertaking, be left to that Company, a corresponding diminution of the capital will take place.

And they entertain a firm hope that the present absence of &J remuneration to him for these services of .the past year, will be amply compensated in future ones, by the in creased number of Friends which each Member will feel it his duty as far as practicable, to add to the Institute ; so as by this, the best and most unexceptionable of all means, to increase the stability and popularity of the Establishment, and thus promote and consolidate the interests of all who are concerned in its permanent welfare." Proposed by Lord BROUGHAM; seconded by Sir JOHN YARDS BULLER, Bart., M.P. _ . The police having intimated that the lady had contented to go back with her husband, the property was given up to tkc latter, and the parties then left the Court, but had scarcely been out five minutes, when' the wife returned, and asked the magistrate if she was compelled to go back with her husband ? Mr. BOND said she ought to be ashamed of herself. He was much surprised at her making such an inquiry. There were very few husbands who would have taken her back. The wife, who had played with her parasol during the pre vious examination, and had exhibited no symptom s of s h ame , admitted that her husband had always been a very kind man to her. The wife then retired, and whilst the husband was waiting for her outside at a public-house opposite, the woman threw her arms round her paramour's neck, and kissed him in the presence of several persons who were standing at the bar at the time, and then joined her much-injured husband.

ESCAPE OF A CONVICT.—On Monday morning four convicts were removed from the Lewes House of Correction in custody of two turnkeys, by way of the London and Brighton Railway. On arriving at the London.bridge terminus . three of them asked permission to retire for a few minutes, in order to which, one of them was unhandculTed from his companion and left in charge of one turnkey, while the other three were absent with the other turnkey. The convict thus left behind was named Biddle. He had, when a youth, enlisted in the 12th Lancers, from which he deserted, and on being afterwards captured and em. SOUTH LONDON SUBURBAN RAILWAY.

June 4, 1845. Yesterday, Charles Sweet, described as a carver and gilder, in the Waterloo-road, was charged before Mr. Cutting ham with exposing for sale in his shop books and prints of an obscene description. Mr. COTTING lIAM said the offence with which the defendant had been charged came clearly within the meaning of the 2d and 3d of Victoria, which gave magistrates the power of summarily dealing with such cases and inflicting penalties. He only re gretted that he could not punish the vendor of pictures and books of such an immoral and d;sgusting tendency under the Vagrant Act, by imprisonment. The magistrate then inflicted a flue of 0 youngE T.

F RA R S IR I . —True 1 P - S7 l RE named John and Isaac llenster, were placed at the bar before Mr. Brough ton, charged with having wantonly assaulted an elderly man named Richard Howell, and thrown him into the Regent's Canal, whereby his life was placed in imminent danger. Sergeant Hammond, K 20, stated that while on duty at the Bromley station, near Bow, at two o'clock on the preceding afternoon, he received information that a man had been thrown into the Regent's Canal, and was then lying upon the bank in a dying state. He immediately proceeded in that direction, accompanied by the assistant of Mr. Baker, the divisional sur geon, and several officers, and on reaching Wi c k-l ane , l ea di ng to Old Ford, he met four men carrying the body of another who was perfectly insensible, and appeared to be dead. By direction of the surgeon he was taken to the nearest public-house, and restoratives having been administered, after a long interval ho partially recovered, and stated that while seated on the coping-stone of a bridge over a branch of the canal running to Twig Folly, he observed five or six men conducting them selves in a very disorderly manner, two of whom, on approach ing him, exclaimed, " Now we'll have a lark," and immediately seized him by the legs and pitched him over into the water. Being unable to swim he instantly sank, and could not tell by what means he was rescued from his perilous situa tion. The injured man was then conveyed to the station house upon a stretcher, and the prisoners having arrived soon arta. in custody, he immediately identified them as the most active of his assailants. The witness added-that the poor man had since suffered a relspse, and was now lying in the work house of the Stepney Union in such a precarious state that there was scarcely any hope of his recovery. A medical certificate was handed to the magistrate, which stated, in substance, that the man was suffering from extreme exhaustion, and that his life was in great danger. Police-constable K 222 stated that, from information he had received, he proceeded with other officers to the Three Colts et Old Ford, and found the prisoners, with five other men, play ing at quoits, six of whom were captured, but the seventh leaped a wall and escaped. On being identified by Howell as two of his assailants, the prisoners made no observation, and the other four not being recognised were at once liberated. In answer to the charge the prisoners admitted havirg been all the morning in the neighbourhood, but positively denied having taken any part in the outrage, and requested the magis trate to hear the evidence of the persons who were with them in confirmation cf their statement. Mr. Beetle lITON said that such evidence was wholly inad missible, as it would be his duty, if the unfortunate man died, to enrnmu the prisoners up -- )n the charge of wilful murder, and it was impossible at present to say to what extent the proposed witnesses might be implicated in the transaction. He should order the prisoners to be brought up again on Monday next, and the sergeant must ascertain whether Howell was in such a state as to require the immediate attendance of a magistrate to take his dying deposition, and communicate the result without loss of time. barked for Ireland to join the regiment, when the vessel was nearly two miles from shore, he jumped overboard and swam back. 13 months ago he was tried at Lewes, and sentenced to 12 months' hard labour, for obtaining goods under false pretences. The im prisonment had just expired, when he called on his mother, who was acting as monthly nurse to the lady of the Rev. Mr. Morgan, Of Piccomb, and carried off four of the Rev. Gentleman's spoons ; for this offence he was tried at the East Sussex quarter sessions a fortnight ago, and sentenced to seven years' transportation. During his stay in Lewes gaol, we understand that he has feigned illness, and in consequence of this, it appears, the turnkey might have been rather less careful of him than he would °anywise hare been. The turnkey himself states that he had turned his head but for a second, and that on again looking round the prisoner was gone. He had seized the opportunity of mixing with the crowd, and effected his eseape. The handcuffs were still on one of his wrists when he slipped off. Sir JohnYardeßuller, Bart., 111.P.Ittev.

Lord Morpeth took the chair shortly after six o'clock, and grace having been said by the Rev. Dr. Stebbing, the company commenced operations on the good things placed on the tables by Messrs. Bathe and Breach. The Noble Chairman was supported' on the right and left hands by Lord Robert Grosvenor anti Dr. Lushington. In addition to the tables occupied by the Christian visitors there was a table exclusively for gentlemen of the Hebrew station, at which were Sir Moses Montefiqn, Sir Isaac Goldsmith, and about forty more of the same belietl.'he dinner at this table was furnished by Mr. Liefman, the celebrated Hebrew cook of Goodman's- fields. Upon the removal of the cloth the " Non noble" was sung by Messrs. T. Cook, Chapman, Hobbs, and Hawkins, after which the usual loyal and appropriate toasts, the health of th; chairman, &c., were drunk with the accustomed honours. The subscriptions an nounced by the treasurer were unusually liberal, amounting in the aggregate to nearly 7001- It appears that the number of recipients of the benefits of the charity is every year between 15,000 and 16,000, of whom 1,100 arc in.paticnts and 350 women in child birth, who are attended at their own habitations. The funds of the hosrital are in a wholesome state; but, as they depend on the active benevolence of the public, and, as the public are generally benefited by the hospital, it is both charitable and politic for th e p ublic to be liberal in their contributions to the funds. N ALLEGED INPATICIDE.On Tuesday Mr. Bedford , held an inquest at the Red Lion, Princes-street, Westminster, on the body of a newly-born female child, which was found by a young man tamed Blackburn, on Salad:ly afternoon last, tied up in paper, and lying on the coping-stone on the western side of West minstcr-britlee. Dr. Wright, who had examined it, said it was a full-grown child, and he was of opinion that it was born alive, and had died from want of proper attention at the birth. Verdict, " Found dead."

Poarsuot - nr, JUNE 4.—Yesterday a Jury was impanneJled bF John William Cooper, Esq., Coroner for the borough of Ports.. mouth, at the Guildhall, for the purpose of inquiring into the death of James Alexander Seton; late of the 11th Hussars, alleged to have died from wounds received in a duel with Lieut. Hawkey of the Royal Marines, many erroneous accounts of which base been industriously circulated; no two et them agreeing In the causes which led to the unfortunate duel, nor in the parlieulars with respect to the subsequent conduct and condition of the parties. The jury was composed of the most respectable inhabitants of Portsea and Portsmouth, William Grant, Esq., banker, being forzman. Mr. Jenkins, of Gosport, and Dr. Allan, of Hasler, were then sworn as medical witnesses; but tefere proceeding to view the body, Mr. W. Minehin, of Portsea, solicitor, requested, on behalf of the widow and the executors of the deceased, to be allowed te attend and watch the proceedings, in order that the ends of justice might be answered. The CORONER made no objection, but said he must restrict hint to a certain extent : he could allow of no address to the jury. Mr. Field, of Gosport, solicitor, said ho had been instructed by the Wends of two gentlemen at present absent, and whose mimes were associated both by public reports and the public press with this transaction, to attend this inquest and watch the proceedings on their part, and he apprehended that there would be no objection to his attending with a view to protect the interests of those gen tlemen, which had been committed to his care. The CORONER said he should permit it with the seine restrictiOlk he had imposed on the other party. Mr. Joah Bates Wakefield said he was a connexion of the unfor tunate deceased, and he felt it to be his duty to attend this inquiry, in order to watch the proceedings on the part of the relatives and friends of the deceased. On landing at Portsmouth a summons had been put into his hands to appear here as a witness, and it had therefore become necessary for him to obtain the assistance of a professional friend (Mr. Minehin), to attend here with him ; and he would Vow that in attending there was no ill feeling whatever on the part of— The CORONER here stopped the speaker, and saki he could allow of no address of that kind. The jury then proceeded to view the body, accompanied by the coroner, the medical witnesses, and Mr. Wakefield, and re turned in aboet half an hour. Mr. Joah Bates Wakefield, of 7, Granby-street, Hampstead road, Middlesex, attorney, was the first witness sworn, and stated that he was brother-in-law of the deceased, James Alexander Seton. The body which the jury had viewed was the body of his relative, who resided at 4, Queen's.terrace, Southsea, and was formerly .f the 11th Dragoons, but was, previous t. his death, of no profes sion. Witness saw him last alive on the 23d of May; be was then at the Quebec Hotel, in this borough. He was lying in bed suffering from a wound, which was from the right hip to theoppo_ site groin, passing over the belly. Witness did not know bow that wound was inflicted. Witness was informed by the medical gentle. men present he was not out of danger. This was in the hearing of the deceased, in the same room. Witness was quite positive the deceased heard the &claret len of the medical men. The reason why that opinion was given was in conseeticnce of witness's wife and himself having seen - deceased ; and the reedltal man stated—" Your life is in my hands, and you must implicitly obey my directions, not to see any one without my consent." De ceased stated to witness," I understand the medical men will not be able to pronounce me out of danger until a certain day." Wit ness then said to deceased—" You have a very long sickness before we._ v'-.t k,*, Se_ -ere, •• Erst on Thursday, the 22.10 f May, and again frequently on Friday, the 23d. I know nothing of the affair of my own knowledge. Mr. Henry Hollingsworth, one of the proprietors of the King's Rooms, Southsea-beach, deposed that he resides at the King's Rooms, Soutbsea, and knew the deceased, James Alexander Seton. He was a subscriber to the King's Rooms, and a constant atten dant. Witness last saw deceased at the King's Rooms on the night of Monday fortnight (the 19th of May), at the usual seine which took place every Monday evening. Dancing was going .o on that evening. Nothing, to his knowledge, occurred ou the evening in question. Was not aware that any quarrel took place on that evening; on the contrary, Mr. Seton and Mr. Hawkey ap peared on very good 'terms. Mr. Hawkey and Mr. Seton were very friendly, and almost every day at the room, together. Mr. Hawkey had not been to the room since the evening of the 19th of Mar. To the best of his belief Mr. Seton left the rooms on that 'sight first. Mr. Hawkey left the sense evening about five minutes past twelve o'clock. Mr. Seton loft the rooms alone.

On hearing this, the convict followed his victim some yards with a knife in his hand, and seized a small crow-Isar, wish which he struck the overseer a severe blow en the back part or the head, which extensively fractured the skull, and pro, duced instant death. - The villain then rushed cut in an exzitedi state, saying to his fellow prisoners, " 1 have killed Mr. Walt er, b y God, and would serve any other fellow in the same mann er t h at would dare to scold and collar me like Walter did ;" at th e same time he held up a glazier's putty-knife covered with blood.

"Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere routine practitioner would never dream of finding them; traceable to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal springs of domestic misery, and premature mortality."—Wakeßeld Journal.
