E, GLADSTONL " 11, Carlton-house-terrace, April 24," NAMES EivniNr- IN • "ON.P ----~ ..: We have recently, on ir am than one occasion, drawn attention to some striking . Ovoincidences—coincidences in names and trades, coincilences in averages, and so on ; the fact that the slim nnmber of thousands will, each week, for many weeks trgether, visit some public museum, or go night after night.Avith few to spare to some parti cular dramatic enterVaiument. Boxed up alone in a railway carriage a few nights ago, the observation, belonging to the same class of facts, occurred to us that a large proportion kof our most eminent men in their various paths bearia name ending in " on." Thus we iave : Bacon, our gre'stest philosopher ; Byron and Thomson, our greatest c 1( m.iptive poets ; Clarkson, Buxton, and Colston, some of our greatest philanthropists ; Gibbon, our most eminent historian : Clarendon, not far short; Gibson, one of onr best sculptors ; Hilton and Hay don, amongst our best historical painters; Incledon, our greatest ballad - singer ; Jameson, our greatest female 'writer on art ; Johnson and Addison, our most distinguished essayists ; Lytton, our greatest living novel writer ; Milton, our greatest epic poet ; Mur chisor.o our most distinguished geologist ; Newton, our grealaNg astronomer; Palmerston, the most English of stamen ; Stephenson, our greatest railway engineer; Tennyson, our greatest living poet ; Wellington, our greatest military commander (with Napoleon for adver sary) ; and Nelson, our greatest sea-captain. As amongst men of lesser rank, Ben Jonson, Chatter ton, Hutton, Wharton, Emerson, Simpson, John Britton, Alison, Paxton, Rawlinson, Bennington, Watson Gordon, Noel Paton, Hepworth Dixon, Mark Lemon, Gardener Wilkinson, James Fergusson, Donaldson, Sir Thomas Watson (our first physician), and many others will recur to the memory. Surely this is very remarkable, and, so far as we know, the observation has never keen made before. All these names speak of progress : they cry, " Excelsior!" Echo herself says, as each name is repeated, " On !" The circumstances that London may be given as the scene of their labours, and that these lines were penned in Brampton, may serve curiously to carry on the terminal coincidence, though they do not bear on the original obser vation.— Builder. The English Church Union report states that their " Case and ()pinion " has cost £4OO ; the St. Alhan's and East Teignmouth cases, £1,600 ; other cases, £2OO ; and various other matters, £10) ; total, £2,300 ; leaving a balance of ZOO ; but there was still owing £2,000 for the St. Alban's and East Teignmouth cases, exclusive of the costs of the appeal. liODELs IN MINIATURE. —His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, on visiting the agricultural show at Dublin, was much interested in some exquisitely-finished models of machinery made by artisans employed at the works of Messrs. Howard, Bedfo; d, and expressed his admiration of a beautiful miniature plough, weighing only two ounces, yet perfect in every part. Messrs. Howard offered, and his Royal Highness has since signified his pleasure in accepting, the gift. LAND TRANSFER AND REGISTRY OF DEEDS.-- The Qneen has been pleased to appoint the Right Hon. John Baron Romilly ; the Right Hon. Spencer Horatio Walpole ; Mr. George Markham Giffard, a vice-chancel lor; Mr. Edward Howes ; Mr. Arthur Flophouse, one of her Majesty's counsel ; Mr. Jacob Waley, Mr. Henry Thring, Mr. Edward Parker Wolstcnholme, barristers-at law; Mr. John Young, and Mr. William James Farrer, to be her Majesty's commissioners to inquire into the opera tion of the Land Transfer Act, and also into the present condition of the r:gistry of deeds for Middlesex. A 'THIEVES' PRAYER MEETING. —At the Glasgow Special Circuit Court, before Lard Jerviswoode, four men, named Harrison, Longford, Forsyth, and 'Rodgers, were charged with robbing a Sabbath-school teacher under somewhat peculiar circumstances. The teacher, it seems, while standing, at the door of the Wynd Free Church one evening in February last, was accosted by a young man, who asked him teaccornpany him to a horse in New Wynd, where there were a number of children whom he wished to have brought to a meeting then being; held in the church. The teacher consented, and on enter ing the house found there a woman, two children, and ono of the prisoners. Shortly afterwards the other prisoners appeared on the scene, one of them intimating that he - hail just been holding a . prayer meeting, and wished to hold another. Longford, one of the prisoners, then read the 2nd and 3rd chapters of St. John, after which another offered up a long prayer. The teacher after " worship" was over, when about to leave the house, was seized by Harrison, who told him he was in a bad house, and "would have to pay the consequences." The " conse quences" seemed to be so much money, which the teacher had not to give, and the prisoners then proceeded to rob him. He made a vain resistance, and was speedily relieved of his coat, vest, and watch, an operation which was rendered easier than it otherwise might have been by a man outside the door, propcs:ng to tie him and throw him over the window. The poor fellow was let oft without further molestation, and on giving information to the police the four prisoners were speedily apprehended. The jury found them guilty, and Lord Jerviswoode sentenced them each to five years' penal servitude. DEATH OF MISS COPLEY.—Death has at length carried off the last surviving child of John Singleton Cop ley, the well-known R.A. and historical painter, the venerable Miss Copley, sister of John Singleton Copley, Lord Lyndhurst, whom she has survived by little more than four years. Miss Copley, who has jutt died at the house of Lady Lyndhurst, in Eaton-square, was in her 95th year. Of Mr. Copley's three daughters, two grew up to woman hood ; of these two she was the younger ; and it may be of interest here to record the fact that her elder sister, Elizabeth, who married a Mr. Greene, died at Bos ton, Massachusetts, on the Ist of February, 1866, at the ripe age of 95. As Lord Lyndhurs t had completed painter 91st year when he died, the three children of I on who survived infancy attained , died in 1536, at upwards of e ,r 3, ita inl a g i j oin tl y , seem t on the woolsack. fir.

Her portrait as a little child,_playing with the future Lord Chancellor of England and her other bro. thers and sisters, will be remembered by all those who saw the celebrated family group painted by Copley,' which used to hang in the large drawing-room of Lord Lyndhurst's house in George-street, and formed one of the attractions at South Kensington during the Great Exhibition of 1862. - .
