Youth, perhaps, never feels more joyous than when it contemplates the half-yearly vacation, unless it be when looking forward during the holidays to new clothes. But how much would the delight be en hanced, if, instead of the ceremony of measuring by the family tailor, and hearing his recommendation or this, that, and the other fashion or cut, the parents would take them where they would see every pre vailing style adapted for all ages, and allow them to chose for them selves—not that they need be left altogether to select without advice, but their natural guardians would be infinitely better satisfied if they saw every description of appropriate dress mode up in the first style of elegance, instead of being obliged to take a suit when brought home, made according to the single idea of one man, for nine times out of ten, if it by a lucky chance happens to fit, it does not altoge ther please. Now it is desirable that every child at home for his holidays, and every parent should know, that Messrs. E. MOSES and SON, whose unrivalled Establishments in Aldgate and the Mi. nodes, and New Oxford-street (corner of Hart-street). are, from their splendour of decoration, exhibitions in themselves, have, in an ticipation of the Midsummer Holidays, provided one of the most ex tensive and elegant STOCKS of CLOTHING for YOUTH that was ever got together, combining the newest fashions and the most ele gant designs, the best material that can be made, and the most ex quisite workmanship. Besides this, hundreds of the best workmen in the trade are on the premises, ready to make to measure, if pre ferred, any quantity of garments to the patterns chosen, and nothing could be a greater treat to young people than a walk through the Monarch Mart. To the parents it must be interesting to know that they will be able to clothe two lads for the price usually charged by ordinary tailors for one. E.

STATISTICS OF PRlSONERS.—Yesterday a return ordered by the House of Lords was printed, from which it appears that the number of prisoners tried at the Spring Assizes in 1850 and 1851 in the counties of Hertford, Essex, Sussex, Kent, and Surrey, was in the first year 365, and in the second 383. Singularly enough, in the county of Kent the number was the same in each year, 172, being more than 1 double the number in either of the other counties. A special meeting of the shareholdets of this com pany was held yesterday at the London Tavern, to con sider the Bill before Parliament for making a deviation in the line of the Waterford and Limerick Railway, and to amend the Acts relating thereto. Major General M'Leod was in the chair. The Solicitor of the company read the marginal notes cf the Dm, and stated there was nothing in the measure at all relating to the Waterford and Kilkenny Company until they came to the 45th clause. That clause gave power to the Waterford and Limerick Company to use and run over a portion of the Waterford and Kilkenny Railway into Waterford; and there was a provision in the Bill, that in case the latter company should not complete the line before the 25th March, 1853, the Limerick Company were to be allowed to make the line. The piece of line referred to is three-quarters of a mile long, and extends from Dunkit to Waterford, and is to be constructed by the Waterford and Kilkenny Com pany. The Waterford and Limerick Company are to have the use of it by paying the former company 5 per cent. per annum on halt the cost of the line. In case the Waterford and Limerick Company should be com pelled to make it, then the Waterford and Kilkenny Company would have to pay the other company 5 per cent. per annum on half the cost of the line and of the stations for the use of them. The Railway Commissioners are to be referees in case of dispute. The Bill was sanctioned, and a vote of thanks closed the business of the meeting. LLYN VI - VALLEY. A special meeting of the shareholders of this company was held yesterday, at the offices, 449, West Strand, for the purpose of considering the draft of a Bill now before Parliament, and for confirming the forfeiture of certain shares. Sir B. Price was in the chair. The forfeiture of the shares (640 in number) having been confirmed, It was stated that it was proposed by the Bill to re duce the capital from 250,0001. to 125,0001., and to con solidate the whole of the shares into one description of stock, and to make no further calls on the proprietors; that for the purpose of settling the dispute with the South Wales Company, 6,3001. be subscribed to the un dertaking; the Llynvi Company should pay them 4,500/. in bonds, payable in five years, at 4 per cent.; the bor rowing powers of the company to be reduced from 66,0001. to 20,0001. The Bill was sanctioned, and a vote of thanks having been given to the Chairman, the meeting broke up. FRENCH RAILWAY TRAFFIC.

IPSWICH, JUNE 24. With a moderate supply of wheat at market this day, the trade was steady at last week's rates ; but little disposition, however, was evinced to buy, and the trade finished somewhat heavy.

Taylor and Bright's Circular states:—The ar rivals of grain since our last have been rather more liberal than for some time past, which, accompanied by warmer and more seasonable weather, has produced rather a pause in our market. At to-day's market our farmers brought a liberal quantity of wheat forward, for which an advance was asked, but former prices only obtainable. For foreign the demand has rather slackened, unless for the best fresh sorts; warehoused stocks are not so easy to move, and indeed are held somewhat above the market, which closes dull at last week's prices. The high prices asked for barley restrict business, or the moderate arrival would not suffice for the demand. Of oats there have been tolerable arrivals from abroad, and the market is doll at about Is per quarter decline. Beans and peas in fair demand at late rates.

Carter. the co roner, at the Marlborough Arms Tavern, Camberwell, con cerning the death of a female child, found murdered at the residence of Mr. Naile, a gentleman of fortune, residing at Dulwich. It appeared from the evidence that a female named Theresa Jane Flayer, was housemaid to Mr. Nails, and from appearances she was suspected of having given birth to a chile. Search was made, and the body was dis covered underneath her bedstead. Sergeant Godfrey, of the P division, was called, and on opening the parcel he found the body of a female child recently born. There was a piece of white ribbon tightly tied round the neck; the tongue was protruding from the mouth, and wee much swollen. The female Flayer was aftewards taken into custody to the workhouse, where she at present remains. Mr. Flower, surgeon, who had made a post mortem examination of the body, said he had no doubt the child had breathed some time, and its death was from strangulation, caused by a ligature round the neck. The jury unanimously returned a verdict of " Wilful Murder against Theresa Jane Flayer." METROPOLIS WATER SUPPLY.—Last evening a meeting of the inhabitants of the united parishes of S. An drew, Holborn, and St. George the Martyr, Queen-square, took place in the great hall of the workhouse, Grays' Inn lane, to consider the propriety of petitioning against the pro posed Government Bill for the supply of water to the metro polis. Mr. Tidmarsh was voted to the chair. It was resolved to petition against the passing of the proposed Bill, and it was further resolved that an association should be now es tablished to obain a better and purer supply of water ; and the having passed a vote of thanks to the chairman, s m e r u ti a n t g e t us We have received the Paris journals of yesterday. In the course of the discussion by the Assembly of the measure proposed by M. CHAPOT (which was read a first time) to ensure more effectually the authenticity of the signatures attached to petitions, M. EaSILE DK GIRARDIN declared that the practice of petitioning ought to be done away with altogether, as a monarchi cal practice not required under a republican Govern ment. He then proceeded to describe the manner in which petitions are got up for the revision of the Constitution in the following terms : "Petitions were every day presented to the Assembly in favour of the revision of the Constitution, but the following fact would show wh a t d egree o f credit ought to be attached to them. The National had that morning contained a letter from a c3rrespondent in the Basses Alpes, declaring that the Prefect had sent to the func tionaries under him au order, recommending them to get petitions signed in favour of the revision of the Constitution; that order had proceeded from the Minister of the Interior. When it was con sidered that a similar influence was exercised by the other Prefects, and when it was borne in mind that there were in France 500,000 official employes, he would ask was there not danger in petitioning, and ought not the right to be stippresscd. He held in his hand a circular from a sub-prefect, which insisted on the necessity of all citizens being prepared for the even tualities of 1852, and on the propriety of guarding against them by making every exertion en favour of the re-election of L. N. Bonaparte. All well-intentioned citizens ought to be prepared, it said, to rise sponta neously and simultaneously to put down any opposition to the claims of the President. Such a document, said M. E. de Girardin, was highly objectionable ; first, be cause it attributed to the President a popularity which he did not enjoy, and next, because it contemplated a course altogether in opposition to the enactments of the Constitution, and the oath taken by the President him self. He called the attention of the Minister of the Interior to the documents which he had quoted, and in conclusion he must again repeat the opinion, that in a republic it would be better to suppress the practice of petitioning altogether." The Sub-Committee on the revision of the Consti tution, charged to examine all the petitions to the As sembly on that subject, is already far advanced in its work, and it is thought that it may be terminated by the end of the week. In the sitting of yesterday the Committee made known the result of the examination already completed of 50 departments, beginning with the Ain, and coming up to the Marne. In these 50 departments there are for the pure and simple revi sion 256,664 signatures, crosses, and adhesions legal ised and non-legalised; for the recision and the pro longation of the powers of the PEESIDENT 184,431 ; and for the prolongation alone 10,160. The total number of signatures legalised and non-legalised affixed to all the petitions received, for revision and prolongation, and for prolongation alone, amount to 894,427 ; the number of crosses is 28,247, and of ad hesions 32,981, making a grand total of 450,655 signatures, crosses, and adhesions affixed to the peti tions already received from the first 50 departments by alphabetical order. Considering the great exertions made to obtain signatures by the 500,000 employes who depend for their subsistence on the Government, the number of signatures falls far short of what we expected. The petitions for the revision of the Electoral Law, and the restoration of universal suffrage, are even more ; numerously signed. M. LAMARTINE, in the Pays, thus reasons on the question for revision. He says :—" The question for us is this—An agitated country if there be revision ; a dissatisfied country demanding satisfaction from a revolutionary opposition if there be no revision. We prefer an agitated to an irritated country, and there fore we advocate revision, if the Republic have for its judge universal suffrage." Count DE STURMER, who has resided for nearly a quarter of a century in quality of Austrian Internun eio at the Ottoman Porte, and whose name is con nected with all the great transactions which have taken place in the Levant during that period, has just arrived in Paris, from whence he is, it is said, about ; to proceed to London. he Committee on the Avignon Railway Bill held a long sitting on Monday. After a warm discussion, the Committee maintained its previous resolutions as to the propositions which had been presented by dif ferent companies. It also ratified its decision as to the provisional execution of the line from Paris to Lyons by the State. It afterwards decided, by a majority of 7 to 5, that the railway from Lyons to Avignon should be provisionally made at the expense of the State. The Committee on the Budget, altering its first decision relative to the subventions granted to the Italian Theatre and the Odeon, has determined on maintaining both. The illoniteur .Algirien of the 20th contains the following details of the movements of the expedi tionary column : " General Saint Arnaud left Djidjelli on the 15th, and on the 9th attacked the Beni-Aisia, and burnt their villages. After a warm engagement, in which they were vigorously pursued, with the great loss of some men, the Beni-Ahss wrote to demand the Aman. On the 10th, the column was bivouacked in the midst of the Beni•Maad, the strongest of the tribes to the west of Djidjelli. All the contingents of the Ouled-Nabet, Ouled-Ali, and the Beni-hle.rmi were assembled on this point, crowned the heights, and occupied the strongest positions. During the 10th and 11th, there was continued fighting, the posi tions were successively carried, and the village taken and burnt; the enemy were pursued in erery direction, and lost a great number of men. A brilliant affair was accomplished by two companies of the .16th Light In fantry. They carried by assault a position which was defended by the Kabyles, and considered by them as im pregnable. While climbing up the e n t renchments th e Kabyles kept hurling down large stones on their heads, but they continued the attack, amidst the applause of all the column. Some shells, which were well thrown, and fell amongst the enemy by the artillery caused a division in favour of the attacking party. The re sults of these combats has been the submission of the Beni-Moad and the Beni-Marmi. Oa the 12th General de St. Arnaud, marching on Ziama, met the contingents of the Ouled-Nabet and the Beni-Segoual, who appeared disposed to dispute his passage. Thoy were, however, vigorously attacked and put to flight. In the evening a deputation from these tribes came to the French camp to offer their submission, and on the following day the Beni-Bou-Jussef also made a similar offer. All the tribes of the western part of the circle of Djidjelli hav ing thus submitted, and the country having been or ganized, the General returned to Djidjelli on the 16th, and, on the morning of the 18th, was again to take the field against the Beni-Siar and the Beni-After, towards the east. In these several combats the less of the enemy was severe, whilst that of the French has been very trifling." At the commencement of business at the Bourse the speculators showed some hesitation in purchasing. Towards the,close, however, when it was known that the review in the Champ do Mars by the PRESIDENT had passed over favourably confidence was restored, and the Five per Cents., which opened at 92f. 00c. closed firmly at 93 f. 15 c.; the Three per Cents , closed at 56f.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 848 f. 7 5 c.; Rouen, WC; Havre, 2461. 25c.; Great Northern, 4831. 75c.; Avignon, 216 f. 25c.; Vierzon, 457 r. 50c.; Paris and Strasburg, 370 f.; Tours and Nantes, 272 f. 50c, BUSINESS 00NE IN FOREIGN RAILWAYS AT TBE LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE, JUNE 24.

They announce that all the members of the new Committee on the Bill for the regulation of the debt are of the Ministerial party. It was said that the Committee would present its report in a few days. The Opposition intended to bring forward a great many amendments, in order to delay the adoption of the measure. The 19th being the fete of the Corpus Christi, which was celebrated with much pomp, the Chambers did not assemble, and the Stock Exchange was closed. The discussion in the Chamber of De puties on the vote declaring confidence in Ministers was to come on the next day, and several sittings would, it was expected, be occupied in the discus sion. Queen CnRISTINA had entirely recovered from her late accident. PORTUGAL. It is rumoured that SALDAMIA intends modifying the Ministry in a Carlista sense. He has addressed a letter to the Minister of the Interior expressing his disapproval of the dismissal of Cartista employes by the civil governors of provinces, and the following circular on this subject has been issued by the Minister of the Interior : The Queen has been pleased to order— " That the civil governors, examining well the spirit of those eircularF, and the instructions and declarations which, in c , nformity therewith, have since been given to them, are not to proceed to the suspension of employes, nor to propose their dismissal, unless, by an impartial examination of facts and circumstances connected with them, they are convinced of the justice and necessity of such measures; for, however much it is certain that the general administration of the State ought to be free sad disembarrassed, without personal considerations, or of a secondary order, acting Els an obst ru ction to it, it is right at the same time that those suspensions or dis missals only should take place which justice and the public interest in reality demand. I ! That the civil governors must bo very explicit in GERMAN Y. The Augsburg Gazette states that the Germanic Diet has decided that, before undertaking the revision of the Customs for all Germany, special men shall be codsulted. The sub-Committee nominated by the federal Commission has resolved that the fleet shall be maintained. The decision was warmly supported by Austria. Among other propositions made by Prussia to the Diet is one requiring an examination into the validity of the federal resolution concerning the incorporation of Prussia and Posen into the Confederation. This proposition has caused some excitement, as it is feared that there is something in the background. The Government of Austria has prohibited through out the Austrian dominions the sale or publication of any account of the trial of Count de Bocarme for murder, lest such publication should bring the aris tocracy into contempt, and tend to the propagation of democratic ideas. RUSSIA. A furious hurricane, accompanied by torrents of rain, took place in the environs of Charkoff on the 13th of June. It came from the west, and covered 50 versts. It has occasioned fearful devastation; all the corn, the gardens, and the fields are destroyed, mills have been thrown down, bridges and sluices carried away. The fields are completely inundated ; several persons were killed. The hurricane lasted two hours and a half ; the damage is estimated at 21,000 roubles. ITALY. _ A letter from Rome, in the Corriere Mercantile of Genoa of the 20th, states that two French officers having on the 15th bought cigars in different parts of the town and lighted them, they suddenly exploded and wounded the smokers' faces ; one of them, it adds, has lost an eye by the explosion. The Osservatore Romano of the 16th confirms the main fact, but does not state whether the persons were French officers or not. In consequence of the following circumstance the political offenders confined in the Roman prisons Will no longer be allowed, as heretofore, to receive once a month the visits of their relatives. On Sunday, the Bth instant, the notary APPOLINI obtained, after eight months' entreaty, permission to see his son. The emotion of the poor father was such that at the moment he encircled his child in his arms, he was struck with apoplexy. Monsignore MARC EVANGE CISTI, the Chancellor of the Tribunal of the Consults, remarkable for the harshness of his temper, was pre sent at the scene, and opposed the sending for a sur geon to bleed the father, but insisted on his instant removal lest be should expire within the prison, and his daughters, who had accompanied him, procuring a coach, removed their parent in his then unconscious state. On Sunday, the 15th, M. EVANGELISTS, in leaving his house, received from an unknown hand a blow from a poignard at the bottom of the abdo men. The wound thus incurred was very serious, and appears to be a mortal one. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE RACES. -TUESDAY.

It is published in Saunders's News Letter, with the signature " Wm. C. Gray :"—" Since I wrote last I have seen Messrs. Mitchell and Martin ; they are living together at a place called Bothwell, about 40 miles from here. Mrs. Mitchell and children are soon expected, as none of the Irish exiles expect a speedy return to their country and home. Mr. Meagher was married to Miss Bennet on Satur day, the 22d inst. The Lieutenant-Governor's (Sir William Denison's) order, sending 111‘Manus, O'Dolierty, and O'Donohoe to Port Arthur for three months at hard labour, for going out of their district, was overruled by the judges in the Supreme Court on Friday, the 23d, where M'Manus appeared in his grey prison uniform, in which he had been working at Port Arthur since the let of January. After his acquittal, he had to walk from the Court-house to an hotel, amidst the public gaze, where he had many friends to meet him.

Adverting to the circumstances of the time in which we are calved to minister in this reformed branch of the Church of Christ, we deem it necessary to declare our firm and immoveable adherence to that great article of the faith—" One baptism for the remission of sins," affirming it as it is authoritatively set forth in the Nicene Creed, 11. CEcumenical Council, and as it is taught unequivocally by our own Church in its autho rised formularies, especially in the offices of baptism, and in the Catechism; and we are the rather induced to make this declaration, because we hope that many who are now divided from us may be brought to agree ment by thus knowing the real meaning and extent of the doctrine which we hold. 1. Acknowledging " one baptism for the remission of sins," we hold as of faith, that persons duly baptised are not only baptised once for all, but also are baptised with the one baptism of him who " baptiseth with the Holy Ghost," and who thus making us to be " born again of water and the spirit," delivered us thereby from the guilt and bondage of all sins original and actual. We hold, as implied in the aforesaid article of the Creed, all the graces ascribed to baptism in our Cate chism. For—" By one spirit we are all baptised into one body," even the body of Jesus Christ. We are all made to be "His body," members in particular of " His body," "members of Christ"---and being thus baptised into them, we are " baptised into his death" who " died for our sins." We are " dead with Him," "dead unto sin," "buried by baptism with Him, wherein also we are risen with Him, " quick ened together with Him," "set together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus." Believing that the Holy Ghost so given us in baptism by Jesus Christ, that we are in Him "created anew." We believe, also, that we are children of God in Him, and "if children, then heirs, — heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ," inheritors of the Kingdom of Heaven. 2. We hold accordingly that all infants presented either in church or privately, according to the book of Common Prayer, and baptised with water in the " name of the Father, and the San, and of the Holy Ghost," being spiritually engrafted and incorporated into His mystical body ; original sin being so far from an obstacle to the right reception of baptism, that as St. Augustine says, "Infants, because they are not as yet guilty of any actual sin, have the original sin that is in them remitted through the grace of Him who saveth by the washing of regenera tion. And as our own Church declares that the bap tised child, " being born in original sin, and in the wrath of God, is by the laver of regeneration in baptism received into the number of the children of God, and heirs of everlasting life, for our Lord Jesus Christ doth not deny His grace and mercy unto such infants, but most lovingly calls them unto him." And in accordance herewith, the 27th Article expressly says that the bap tism of young children is most agreeable with the insti tution of Christ. 3. Without presuming to define whether it may not please God to give a larger measure of grace in baptism to some infants, in answer to the more ear❑est prayer of those who bring them, we hold that if many shall affirm that the imparting of the afore said graces in the baptism of young children is hypothetical, depending either on the siLcerity of those who present them, or any other conditions (whew upon it follows, that in cases in which the said conditions do not take place, both the form of baptism itself, and the article " One Baptism for the Remission of Sins," must be understood not as true, but as false and unreal) ho doth greatly err, contradicting an article of the Creed, and also the commission and promise given to the Apos tles by Our Lord himself. 4. :Lastly wo hold, and would earnestly impress upon all Christians, that the foregoing statements, rightly understood, so far from disparaging the need of convez - sion and amendment, are a most powerful incentive to holiness of life, and especially to fervent prayer for renewed or continued grace, as long as the term in this life shall last. For baptism, being the ordinance and instrument of Christ, by which we are born again of the spirit, John iii, 3,5, it binds us to do that which it enables us to do, " to walk in the spirit, and not to fulfil the lusts of the flesh, for if we live after the flesh, we shall die; but if through the spirit wo do mortify the deeds of the body, we shall live. Bap tism makes our bodies to be temples of the Holy Ghost, which is in us, which we have of God, and if any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy—for the temple of God is holy, wherefore it follows that they who, having in baptism received the Holy Spirit to dwell in them, live not after the spirit, but after the flesh, do thereby draw on themselves greater damnation, unless by the grace of God they arise again and amend their lives.

A FACT FOR NATURALISTS.—On Monday, the 9th instant, as Mr. James Wilson was walking without his coat in the Debden-hall gardens, which he occupies, a swarm of bees came round him, and whilst he was standing still, he found his hat, by degrees, becoming intolerably heavy, till at last the weight was so great that he steadily knelt down, leaning his head and hat against a tree; when he found that the principal part of the swarm had completed their settlement, he very gently, but with some difficulty, took off his hat, then, giving it a gentle tap against the tree, he hived the whole without receiving the slightest sting, although his neck and face were completely covered with bees • his neck was so much so t hat his niece, with a small hand brush swept the remaining insects from him, when they also joined their companions in the hive. Mr. Wilson, who is in possession of several hives in the garden, s t a tes that it was the largest s warm of b ees he has had for some years; and the weight of them o n hi e head so excessive, that he would not have been able to stand under them longer. His niece, who described the Swarm while on her uncle, as assuming the shape of a Sugar loaf, escaped with only a slight sting on the arm, w h er . - one of the swarmers had dropped, and as she incautiously gave him a nip, he returned the com p liment. —Essex Herald, -" SUSPECTED MURDER NEAR NouvvicH, On Satur day last as a young man named Johnson th r ough a lane about a mile distant from Mrs. M com ar ti ne au's lane, a dog which ac IN o l r N w ' a i s ch , i) called b ea ting through an adjoining plantation,panied him, after returned with what seemed to be a piece of carrion, with which it ran off.

MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT AT whi ls M t ALDON WHILE I3azinNo.—On Saturday a fternoon, two young g en .. tlemen Norweg i an s, were bathing in the river , one of them, named Otter Hotter, got out of his depth and called for help. His companion, Mr. Erland Kjostende, immediately went to his assistance, when the sinking man instantly caught hold of him round the body, and he being but a moderate swim mer, both sank. It was some little time before any persons could reach the spot; on their arrival assistance was ren dered to Mr. Kjostende, and he was taken out of the water much exhausted, but was soon revived • and although e very exe rtion was used, the body of Mr. Hotter was not found for three•quarters of an hour. Every means Nkre then resorted to in endeavouring to restore animation, but wi • thout the slightest effect, and the body was removed to await a coro ner's inquest.

If corresponding weeks of the ten Atital44;lr, W`' e 1850 bo taken for comparison, i t w ill b e seen that tft4AtsrA, average number of deaths in these weeks was 859, and that the mortality of last week has produced an excess, above the average, equal to 109. But in an increasing population a greater number of deaths does not necessarily imply an increased rate of mortality. The population of London is now 2,363,144. It increased at the rate of 1'551 per cent. annually its the ten years 1831-1841; at 1.993 per cent. annually its the ten years 1841-1831; and 1.776 per cent. annually in the fifty y ears 1801-51. If th e l ast per centage (that of 50 years) be taken to represent the rate of increase during the current decennial period, and the average deaths of corresponding weeks be raised in the same proportion, this average will bcome 915, on which the 968 deaths of last week show an excess of 23. The present return, compared with that of the pre. ceding week, exhibits a continued decrease in deaths arising from disease of the respiratory organs, the num ber, which was in the former week 139, having fallen to 112. The two principal diseases in this class are bron chitis and pneumonia or i nflammation of the lungs, which were fatal respectively in 39 and 55 cases. The fatality of this class of diseases has now declined to near the corrected average; that of the avmotic or epidemic class is not above the average, and does not yet discover a tendency to increase with the advance of the season. The aggregate of deaths ascribed last week to epidemics is 205, and cut of this number 20 of young persons and 2of adults were caused by small-pox, 39 by measles, 19 by scar/Mina, 48 by hoopin,g-cough, 5 by croup, 2 by thrush, 35 by typhus, 7 by erysipslaa, one by noma, one by purpura, 16 by diarrhoea, and one by cholera.

HINTS TO SCOLDING WINES.—" And I dare say you have scolded your wife very often, Newman," said I once. Old Newman looked down, and his wife took up the reply. " Never to signify—and if he has I deserved it." " And I dare say, if the truth was told, you have scolded him quite as often." " Nay," said the old woman, with a beauty of kinduess which the world cannot excel, " how can a wife scold her good man who has been working for her and her little ones all the day ? It may be a man is peevish at times, for it is he who bears the crosses of the world; but who should make him forget them but his own wifo? And she had best for her own sake,--for nobody can scold much when the scolding is all on one fide."..* Bulwer. FATAL EFFECTS or LIGHTNING. —The neighbour hood of Yarmouth was visited on Saturday se'nnight by severe tempest, which inflicted considerable damage upon a marsh hill situated at Toft Monks, near the Seven -mile house, on the Beccles river. Four young men were eel-pick ing in the neighbourhood, two of whom resorted for shelter to the Seven-mile-house, while the other two took refuge in the mill. The former were standing with their backs to the fireplace when the explosion of the cloud took place. They were forced violently against each other, but received no in jury. On proceeding to the door, they beheld the mill-sails dashed to pieces, and on entering the mill they discovered the bodies of their companions apparently lifeless on the floor, their faces and the greater part of their bodies blackened by the sulphurous exhalation. One of them soon recovered, but his companion revived only for a short time, his last words being that "he felt he must shortly die." He was a fine powerful young man, by name Edmund Pettingill, about .25 or 26 years of age. He has left a young wife, to whom he has been united but five or six months. The mill, it ap pears, was the property of the family, and is said to be un insured.—Essex Herald. THE CHURCH IN ANGLESEY.—On Tuesday a young couple, solicitous to bear the " sweet yoke of matri mony," presented themselves at the hymeneal altar of the parish church of Llandrygarn in Anglesey. To their great disappointment they found that the worthy and respected minister of the parish had been suddenly called from home, in consequence of the indisposition of a near relative. Un willing that the celebration of their nuptial rite should be postponed, and being fully conscious of the truth that " hope deferred maketh the heart sick," some of the friends of the happy pair suggested that the service of some other clergy man should be forthwith requested. This was done, and it so happened that the next resident clergyman was no other than the Archdeacon of Anglesey, who immediately con sented to do the needful for his reverend brother. Upon his arrival in church, to his utter dissatisfaction it was ascer tained that the mandate produced was a certificate from the superintendent-registrar of the district! So disgusted was this " venerable pillar of the Church" at the idea that he should be expected to obey the warrant of any laical autho rity that he actually refused to marry the parties, alleging no other reason for disobeying the Act of Parliament, which, some fifteen years ago the temporal head of the Church by law established sanctioned with her Royal assent. Should not these highly lireneficed dignitaries be taught to obey the law, and to conduct themselves in their sphere of office with propriety, or is it to be wondered at that a " Voice from Mona" should complain of utter indifference to the interest of the Church and its well wishers?—Carnarson Herald. DELIBERATE SUICIDE.—PLYMOUTH, TUESDAY.—• Yesterday morning at eleven o'clock, as the up express train, which leaves Plymouth at 10.20 A.M. was passing over the Battery incline of the S ou th Devon Railway, about a mile and a quarter this side of Totnes, it cut off the head of a man who appears to have deliberately put himself on the rail. The train was in_ charge of Marlow, the guard, and consisted of three carriages only, drawn by the Strom boli engine. At the point mentioned there is a consider able turn in the road, and a person like the deceased was on the approach of the train observed in an adjoining field running towards the line. When first seen on it he was only 30 yards off, stooping over the left hand rail, apparently putting something on the plates or picking up something from the road. The train was at full speed, and, the descent being severe, it was impossible for Dickenson, the driver, to stop it at the moment; he, however, sounded the whistle, but the man kept his position, and his head was instantaneously severed from his body. When the train returned it was found that the head had been flung 60 feet forward from the point of decapitation; the bedy was in a ditch about 40 feet in advance with a left arm and left leg broken. The mutilated remains were delivered to the brother of deceased, Mr. Bidlake, a gentleman farmer, who resides at Whitley farm, through which the railroad is constructed. Deceased was about fifty years of age, a bachelor, possessed of some property; he was subject to fits, and within the last ten days has been afflicted with a severe seizure. Just before the approach of the 6.50 up train in the morning a person resembling hi m was seen at the same spot apparently laying something on th e p l ates, but he suddenly absconded when detected by the p o li ceman on duty.

THE DANGER, OF MODELLING IN WAX:—Few especially, perhaps, of the many young ladies who nag the very pleasing art of modelling fruits, bic in wax, at all suspect the great danger in which flowers, ~ P ar e e ra n o o n w s, are placed from the poisonous nature of the Colouring matter matter of the wax which they handle so unsuspectingly . practising The white wax, for instance, contains white lead ; the green, copper; the yellow, chrome yellow; the orang e , chr ome 1 yellow and vermillion—strong poisons all ; while many other kinds of wax are equally poisonous, and, therefore ! danger ous.

Both himself and his medical adviser, after a long attention to his symptoms, are satisfied that the primary cause of his affliction is the extent to which the subtle poisons in the wax with which he has worked have been absorbed into his system through the pores of his hands, while the disease has been generally strengthened, and one part of it accounted for, by the occasional applica tion of his fingers to his lips while at work. Mr. Bally Bays that he has known several cases in which young ladies have been attacked with partial paralysis of the hands and arms, after having devoted some time to the practice of modelling; but at the time he had no suspicion of the cause. As all the requisite colours can be obtained from vegetable matter, and as the use of mineral colouring seems to lead to such deplorable results, the subject should be carefully investi gated by those working with coloured wax.—Manchester Examiner.
