It appears that the unfor tunate man has lately evinced signs of insanity, and was, in consequence, strictly watched. Yesterday morning he asked his wike for a hammer, and on her re fusing his request, he rushed into the street, having on only his shirt and trousmrs, calling out, " Police, mur der," and running up Crown-street, bolted into a huckster's shop, greatly alarming its inmates, who _ in stantly beat a retreat. After upsetting the contentsn9f the shop, he proceeded upstairs to the first floor, an . a gas d b before he could be stopped, threw up the window when picked and precipitated himself into the street, and up the poor fellow presented a Hospital, where was at once conveyed t) Charing cross shocking appearnce. He . he uow lies without the slightest lioPois ofjec-g e " P d par d ip d 2i 3 d t d I 11 - 13 - 9 - 10 5 6 2 2 36 3 8 id par 44 46 11 iP 4 124 62 —67 5 7 p 21 3 d 14 —l6 * • IP 2/ 21.1 I d r: 4 i d [0 ... 12 d i par i 7i 7i id par .. -- ••• i . - iP id par --- 9 1 10 5 6 d E - 7 3f 3 i d d d i i dl BANKS. 82 - 84 .. ••• id dis it idis 11 id 1P 48 - 50 4 d— par ii --- i . 74 - 8i rEOITS. 7I 5 0 ,5 10 1 I all 1 I all )5.

Blackwood.--A fair contributor, to whom Maga is already indebted for the graceful tale of "John Rintoul," and for the still more charming story of " Katie Stewart," has—we are delighted to per ceive —commenced a new fiction in the current number of Blackwood for December. It is impos sible not to detect the identity of the writer of these three sweet and natural delineations of do mestic life in Scotland- 4, Katie Stewart," and " John Rintoul," and now the new historiette upon which the author has adventured, called, by a ten der conceit, " The Quiet Heart." Everywhere in the chapters before us the hand of the now familiar '• • ' limner is traceable—traceable in a - ;Tyle--"Estin gt r u a i e s e h a e b d l e bywe repeat, p e s a u t a , v t i t h y r u g q h u o a u i n t n f er from s m , m ooff a ßni ti t o ele n rnksNi v d e ee r i y ityo Pantos tahnedskeatncil to C rtohfat that of f l , the fromi indignant g h n e a p n i t c picture t ari wincingtto if and delightf u l. It i s " fuffino• " Jenny Durward, from the very rain drops that "glittering in the sunshine, hung upon flowers and branches, and fell now and then in a gleam from the shaken hedge or garden fruit-trees" to the little bouquet of daffodils and wall-flowers on the side-table of the darkened parlour of the farmhouse, hanging their heads with languid melancholy ! Let us confess it at . once, the very mannerisms of this writer have for us the charm of fascination. After the intro ductory instalment of " The Quiet Heart," the principal attractions of the new number of Black wood are two papers of a purely artistic character, a clever essay upon " The National Gallery," and a masterly criticism entitled " Real and Ideal Beauty," in which latter the treatises of Mr. D. R. Hay receive their deserved meed of commenda tion. A third and concluding paper is given on " The Narcotics we indulge in"—the contributor in this instance being Professor James F. W. Johnston. " A few more Words on University Reform" brings that question also to a conclusion. Added to these we have a pleasant gossipping " Letter from the Boulevards," signed Vedette — a facetious tale of modern magic, suggestively headed " Rappin. , the Question"—and, winding up the last number of the year, a political paper on the everlasting subject of dispute befweon " Russia and Turkey," in which paper Blackwood ex presses a desire that if France and England be com pelled reluctantly to draw the sword, "It is to be hoped they will not sheath it until they have obtained solid guarantees that Europe shall not again have her tranquillity disturbed on flimsy pretexts, and for the gratification of a despot's ambition." A very different suggestion from that advanced in the Times of this morning, to the effect that the troops of the Czar shall merely be compelled to withdraw from the Principalities. Cordially and earnestly do we accede to the reasonableness of the retribution demanded by our Edinburgh contemporary. Fraser. Following rapidly in the wake of two or three recent serials in Fraser, " Emily Orford" is this month brought to a conclusion. Another fiction, however, is already announced as about to appear by instalments in the pages of Regina—January promising to bring forth, among other agreeable novelties, the first part of " Gene ral Bounce ; or, the Lady and the Locusts," by the author of " Digby Grand." Another protracted series of contributions, besides the chapters making up the history of " Emily Orford," is terminated satisfactorily enough in the number of Fraser for December—a " Finis of the Fins" intro ducing us to (among other marvels of the "vasty deep") the cod, the sole, the turbot, and the floun der. Several beauties scattered' through the " Har vest Home" of Frederick Tennyson, induce us to look with pleasureable curiosity to the volume of " Poems" from his hand, announced as on the eve of publication. Fraser contains, besides the fore going, two contributions in reference to " Turkey," together with a " History of the War of the Sici lian Vespers," a schoolboy chapter on " Greek and Roman Philology," and a really enthralling ac count of the progress made in that modern wonder of the world, the New Crystal Palace at Syden ham. Bentley's Miscellany.—The readers of " Bentley" will this month be disappointed to find instead of "Aspen Court," a paragraph stating that in con sequence of the late arrival of the manuscript it has been found necessary to supply its place. The author of " Christie Johnstone" contributes a dramatic tale entitled "Art," and there is a romantic tale called " Marguerite Devereux." "Random Recollections of Campaigns under the Duke of Wellington" are continued ; and there is another instalment of "An Incident of Australian Life Twenty Years ago." There is an instructive paper on " The Darien Ship Canal." The poetical con • tributions are numerous. There is a " Tyrolese Legend of Barbarossa." "A qui la faute ?" a lively song. " The Churchyard at Cambridge," by H. W. Longfellow, and a sketch in blank verse, entitled " Lord Byron at Venice." The Art Journal.—The first engraving in the Art Journal is one of Raphael's Madonnas, from the picture in the Berlin Museum. The others are of " The Dead Robin," and "The Negro." The first of these is graceful and touching, showing the sorrow of two little girls over their dead favourite; but, however interesting the African race may be in the pages of Mrs. Stowe, their portraits are not particularly charming. The articles on " The Irish Exhibition," " Art in Continental States," &c., are continued, with a variety of subjects of artistic interest. The National Miscellany. Vol. I. Published at the Office, Exeter-street.—This magazine, which is decidedly of a superior clam to the generality of cheap publications, has been bound in a handsome volume. Many of the articles will bear a re-perusal, which is certainly an unusual characteristic of serial literature. Many of the papers are written with undoubted ability on original subjects, and the re publication of them will be a source of gratification to the readers. " Layard's Discoveries," " The pre-Raphaelites," " The English Humourists," " Roman London," &c., are among the subjects. The public will find this magazine well worthy of encouragement and support. The Newcomes. No. 111. By W. M. Tilackeray. An admirable number altogether being a marked improvement upon its immediate prede cessor. It justifies in a great measure—as far as an additional instalment is concerned—our antici pations of success arising out of the promise of the introductory chapters. Colonel Thomas Newcome especially aids in the fulfilment of our predictions. We are proud of him as one specified by us from the first as our especial favourite. Already he has won upon our affections so far that our partiality threatens to become a sort of infatuation. We ac knowledge it, at once, and are rather satisfied with than ashamed of ourselves as critics in making the acknowledgment. We are beginning to regard Colonel Newcome with somewhat of that affectionate interest felt by us all before now in Honest George Warrington, or in simple, good-hearted Dobbin—the same kind of tender regard that we feel in everything relating to excellent Parson Adams, or to dear Tom Pinch—a mixture of senti ments arising out of a reverence for a goodness of incorrigible, selfish, or antithesis wo rlworldly . character, which, at the same time, is int e n se l y provocative somehow of a sense of the ridicul ous . Colonel Newcome indeed is already fixed in our memory as one of the happiest of the cr ea ti ons of fulTh e direct antipodes , minded old sinner, Major Pendennis l E very thi ng connected with Colonel Newcome b ecomes invested of Mr. that a c d k e e li r ag delightful, . t to our mind with the charm of that really loveable association.

The Russian Shores of the Black Sea in the Autumn of 1852. By Laurence Oliphant. Blackwood. Never was a book of travels published more opportunely. It will be welcomed with all eager ness, and the curiosity of the reader will be amply repaid by an acquisition of really valu able, and at the same time delightfully amus ing, information. Mr. Oliphant has already made himself favourably known to the lettered community by his intelligent and animated account of IN epaul and the Nepaulese. Mr. Murray, some time back, published his " Journey to Nepaul" just as the Messrs. Blackwood have now published his " Voyage down the Volga, and a Tour through the Country of the Don Cossacks :" namely, in the very nick of time—as far as the general interest is concerned. People were attracted to the former work by the apparition amongst us of the Or iental splendour of the jewelled costume, and gorgeous retinue of the Nepaulese Ambassador ! Precisely as nowadays, we doubt not, many will be piqued into a perusal of these lively and alluring pages (366) by the curiosity inspired by that still pending war on the " Shores of the Black Sea" here described—on the shores of that smaller medi-terranean of which Lord Byron said so preposterously in " Don Juan " " There's not a sea the traveller e'er pukes in Throws up such dangerous breakers as the Euxine According to the explanation given by Mr. 0' pliant of his original design—an explanation which will be found in his brief but sufficient " Preface "—our traveller merely designed at first to visit the rivers which run into the White Sea, for the purpose of Salmon Fishing. Fortunately this project was altered by " circumstances, " and our author turned his steps in the direction of the Black Sea. Whence—between the old and the new scheme of his peregrinations—this black-and white record of the incidents of his wander:rigs. He sets forth on his travels from St. Petersburg — clattering in a frail drosky over the exe crable pavements of that city to the railway terminus, and thence on to Moscow at the tail of a steam engine. Here is Mr. Laurence Oliphaut's lively sketch of travelling, and preparing to travel, on— A RUSSIAN RAILROAD. " For an hour did the destined occupants of the train sit patiently on the benches, every man with head unco vered—for even a skull-cap is an abomination to a Rus sian under a roof. Every one in military garb seemed to have the entree to the platform, while the doors were rigorously shut against us unhappy civilians. At a quarter before eleven, however, they are opened—a general rush follows, and we are hurried through a bar rier, the doors of which close behind us. Soon the whole barrier becomes thronged with people, waving their adieux as ardently as if we were booked for Aus tralia. A bell, a whistle, and a sort of dull attempt at a scream, are, as in inure civilised parts of the world, the signals for starting ; we leave the weeping eyes and waving pocket handkerchiefs behind us, and, in the course of ten minutes, find, to our satisfaction, that we have in creased our speed to 15 miles an hour. We have hardly done so ere we arrive at a station. Everybody rushes out and lights a cigarette. We are to stop here ten minutes, and the people during that time walk up and down the platform and smoke ; then we huddle into our old places, and have time to look about us. The carriages are large. Nobody seems to go in the first class. A second-class carriage accommodates about fifty people. They are built, as in Austria and America, with a passage in the centre, perambulated by a man in uniform, who occasionally asks people for their tickets. He seems to make the inquiry the first time to satisfy himself that you have got one, and afterwards merely an amusement, which he apparently enjoy s th e mor as he fancies you are going to sleep. The men are bearded and dirty, and relate stories in a loud tone of voice, for the benefit of the whole company, most of whom have evidently never been in a railway before. At every sta tion the same scene ensues. The unsmoked ends of the last station's cigars, having been carefully preserved, are lighted afresh, and vehemently smoked on the platform during five or ten mi nu t es , as t h e case may be." * Immediately on arrivin g at Moscow, ,. we find that our author and his fellow-travellers are " nearly torn to pieces by the drosky boys," or Isvoschiks, before they can make . _ their way t o th e h o t e l kept by Mr. Pickersoill. Somewhat different their wel come to the capital of Russia from that accorded. to Harry Lorrequer's hero, when he and his lug gage were tossed up for by the Dublin carm en ! Once arrived a t Moscow, Mr. Oliphant app ears to have made the b es t use o f hi s t i me d u ring his brief stay there ; and under iis guidance we also, as readers admitted into his confidence,are enabled to follow him into the Eastern-looking bazaar of the Ryiidi, where we almost catch the flavour (from his description) of the tea imbibed in the orthodox way on the of 1 . 032 0 n r il we pass, in his y lo u a s t s i i n au , drinking it, with a slice top as a substitute for niqk,l under the Stass company, with uncovered her. mer.

Among the sailors of the Volga as well as among those of the Thames, however, there is this pre vailin g sign of theirpramion, that Tom lugold4by's remark would be applicable to either, it appears, where the Victim of the " Vulgar Little Boy goes on to say or sing of an old Salt at Margate— " And then he hitched his trousers up, as is I'm told their use ; It's very odd that sailor-men should wear those things s• loose !" While recounting the incidents of his voyage a l ong the current of the Volga, Mr. Oliphant enlivens his description with the following mention of A RUSSIAN BOAT ACCIDENT. " The weather continued lovely, and the scenery on the right bank was often beautiful. Where, however, the banks are low on both sides, the want of beauty i s generally compensated for by some highly interesting pericarte which is to be traversed, and the excitement becomes considerable as we approach the shallows with our long unwieldy train. Two men with long poles are engaged in melodiously sounding, and " piatt polovinai" (five and a half), " schiest" (six), are ominous words to the ears of the captain, who instantly seizes a red speak ing-trumpet nearly as long as himself, alternately waving it and speaking through it to the barges, on board of which everybody seems frantically engaged in doing some thing, which probably ends in the largest barge leaving the right channel, and suddenly grounding. - Upon this, a great bustle ensues on board the steamer, and the tow rope creaks and jams in every possible direction, always seeming bent upon doing somebody damage, in which it very nearly succeeded two or three times. The steamer goes half-speed, .stops, backs, stops again, and allows the pilot an opportunity of crossing himself vehemently. To all this bustle a Perfect lull succeeds. The barge that is not aground leaves her companion to her fate, and drops composedly down the stream. We wait for an hour to think about the position of matters in gene ral, and then turn our head, and anchor just above the barge in distress. The captain goes on board, while we contemplate her for another hcsur, without doing any thing in particular, during which time she becomes more firmly imbedded than ever. Then follow a series o f most complicated manoeuvres, the result of which is, that after eight or ten hours of continual tugging at all quarters, we get her off, and, picking up the other barge, proceed on our way to the next pericarte, where the same scene occurs, with variations. On one occa sion the tow-rope broke, and the end of it striking our cabin window on deck, stove it in bodily, the smashed glass flying in every direction. I had fortunate o ly j us t quitted my chair close to it ; but my friend, wh was a little further off, was slightly cut." It is worthy of particular observation that the author takes occasion to remark bluntly at page 61, " Nothing bears looking into in Russia, front a metropolis to a police officer ; in either case a slight not be dispelled by a acquaintance issufficient d impressions should gent observer who visi ta t n h n e j: co tt un ". member this observation e mi• • is made ,by an intelli gent recently as the autumn ntryehetel°rendflpiciteted of 1852 !

Signor Biletta is already known in this country as a young artiste of much promise, having acquired highly favourable notoriety by the composition, a mong other things, of an operetta called White Magic, which was given at the Haymarket Theatre during the season of 1853, with very unequivocal success. Additional interest, however, attaches to Signor Biletta's public career, from the fact that he owes his musical educati on to the great Rossini, an d is, accordin g to re port' the favourite pupil of this unrivalled genius of our time. The Opera of Parma is one of the principal theatres of Italy, and will, we are informed, he supported this winter by an assemblage of leading musical tal en t. Barren as the repertoire of our great opera houses has become of striking novelties, we can only hope that Signor Biletta's present effort may achieve a success which shall extend to this country.
