The manner in which this is done is as follows :—A. party, provided with sharp-pointed - 1 ; , 7 a hole in the ground for each foot, and a por- These holes are about two feet deep, yard in width; the excavated earth is embanked around, the margin of the hole. This work being com pleted, they next collect an immense quantity of dry branches and trunks of trees, of which there is always a profusion scattered around, having been broken by the elephants in former years. These they pile above the to the heleht of eight or nine feet, and then set fire When these strong fires have burnt down, the whole of the wood is reduced to ashes, the holes surrounding earth are heated in a high degree. oelve men then stand round the pit, and rake out ,s with a pole about sixteen feet in length, having . at the end.

When the foot is supposed to be ready, it is taken out of the ground with pointed sticks, and is first well beaten, and then scraped with an assagai, whereby adhering particles of sand are got rid of. The outside is then paired off, and it is transfixed with a sharp stake, for facility of carriage. The feet thus cooked are excellent. as is also the t run k, w hi c h very muc h re sembles buffalo's tongue. The reason why such large fires are requisite, is owing to the mass of the flesh that must be baked. In raking the sand on the foot, the na tives are careful not to rake the red-hot embers in with it, which would burn and destroy the meat; whereas the sand and earth protects it, imparting an even and steady beat.—Cumming's Five years in the Interior of South Africa. 1 by his How long he le, and , but be was awoke by the ist, and found himself lying close beside our fat friend. morn 1 . but tl ras he asleep t pitched Hamet tile. of never thwarti attempt rs by his ehold - WOrds.

The door leads into the grand jury room, and a door at the other side of it communicates with the other court. His lord ship ordered the door to be opened. After much knock ing and time spent in lookini' for the key, one of the offs-. cers of the court went round to the grand jury room, and shortly returned and stated to his lordship that the county justices were sitting there, and had refused to open the door. His lordship then ordered the high sheriff of the town and county of Newcastle, the cases within their ju risdiction then being tried, to open the door, and, if ne cessary, that it must be broken open. At this moment a gentleman, whose name we were given to understand was Sir Charles Monck, followed by two or three other gentleman, came through the opened door on to the bench, and addressing his lordship said, " The jus tices of the peace charged with the county business were sitting in the erand jury room, and they could not have the door opened.

A. veterinary surgeon and other parties de clared that there was neither danger nor cruelty in the experiment, and it was accordingly allowed to take place. A little girl about eight years old, the daughter of a house-painter living in Glasgow, found a bottle of whiskey in a cupboard, on Sunday week, and drank so much of the spirits that she became insensible, and died in the course of the night. On Saturday, - as a train was returning between Birth waite and Kendal, a bull which had strayed from a field• adjoining the railway near Ings, was unavoidably run over by the train, and literally cut in two. The train happily, was not thrown off the rails. While some boys were throwing stones at the ducks swimming in a pond near Little Driffield, Yorkshire, on Monday week, one of them, named Burton, about nine years old, cast a pebble which struck another boy, named Train ; on the head. and killed him on the spot. EXTRAORDINARY PERFORMANCE.—A youth at Little Glenharn, confined to his bed now nearly eight years, and with the entire loss of the use of one arm, has, during the last four months, with the other hand, completed a correct model of the parish church upon a large scale, with the interior fixings of its beautiful altar piece, monuments, and admired modern transept; also desk and pulpit, font, gallery, and pews, with the moveable seats, all perfect in view through the door-ways and windows.

After an attack Mr. is generally confined t o hi s b ed for several days, and the animal then scarcely ever leaves his bed-side ;, in fact, it would be a di ffi cult wetter to eject him from the room. A correspondent of the Tablet is extremely anxious that the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, which are offized for sale, should be purchased for the Benedictines of Downside and Amplebrth Colleges, with a view to the restoration of the Abbey. The clerical and lay guardians of the Isle of Thanet have taken (from Michaelmas) ten acres of land : this, with the present two acres of garden, will make twelve acres to employ inmates of poor houses, young and old, upon out-door industry. During a thunderstorm on Monday week, a farmer, 80 years of age, named Evan Thomas, of Blaencwmpridd, Cardiganshire, who went out on horseback to see tor his cattle on the uplands of his farm, was killed by lightning, and his horse was at the same time struck dead.

ANOTHER FATAL ACCIDENT AT BRISTOL.-01'1 Mon day, at the School of Industry for the Blind, at Bristol, a number of the arches of an arcade were in course of being pulled down, when one of them suddenly fell in and injured three men. One of them, John Burke, received a severe wound on the bead and internal injuries, and expired on the following morning. A whirlwind passed over the town of Sunderland, about noon, on Wednesday last, raising a pillar of dust about 60 feet high, which passed over Bridge-street, and for about ten minutes carts and carriages were completely at a stand, being enveloped in a cloud of darkness, which soon passed away without doing any particular damage, and was speedily followed by a shower of rain A girl named Catherine Casterton, aged 16, has been convicted at the Lincoln assizes, before Baron Platt, of administering poison to an aged bed-ridden woman, her object being, as stated by herself to a witness, to get a suit of mourning from the family upon► the death of the poor woman.

Out of thirty-three names on the list, thirteen have a direct pecuniary interest in newspapers published on Sunday or Saturday. EXTENSIVE FORGERIES.-A man of gentlemanly exte rior, named Hill, was on Monday, after considerable trouble, apprehended by the Birmingham police, charged with forgeries upon the Austrian bank to the extent of £15,000. The prisoner was taken at one of the most respectable hotels in the town, and had in his possession forged notes, printed in Birmingham, of the amount stated. A lad named Noble, a servant to a farmer at Glead thorpe. Notts, was sent to a chemist's shop at Worksop, on the 15th ult. to purchase a bottle of aquafortis and quicksilver, to be used as a remedy for a disea , e. in the feet of his master's sheep. He put the bottle in his trowsers' pocket, where it burst, and he was severely burned and subsequently salivated, so that he died of litwerintr till the 234 ult Tr REV. War. PAnsorts's CASE.—Last week we we the leading particulars of a charge of a serious nature ought against the Rev. Wm. Parsons, Roman Catholic Priest, of Sheffield, by a young woman, his servant, whom he is said to have seduced. Mr. Parsons denies the elle eation, and since then the case has been fully entered into, ecclesiastically, by Bishop Briggs and his episcopal council, at four different meetings. The result is a decla ration by the bishop that the charge is not substantiated. In the last number of the Dublin Review there appeared a lengthy article relative to Dr. Achilli, most seriously impugning the learned gentleman's moral character from what purport to be official documents, police reports, &c. It is said that legal proceedings having been threatened against the publishers, a distinguished divine of the Roman Catholic Church at once acknowledged the authorship, in order to afford the most ample opportunity for a legal in vestigation.

MANUFACTURE OF KELP IN THE HEBRIDES.—KeIp is being manufactured to a large extent in Uist. 1100 tons are to be made, and hundreds of the people, with their whole families, are now living in temporary huts on the sea shore avid creeks, and busy from morning to night. Indeed, many of the fires are kept blazing the whole night. It is a pleasant sight to see vast multitudes, who for years past have been altogether idle at this season of the year, busily engaged. It is true that the remunera tion may not be so ample as could have been wished ; but still the people are' meantime receiving supplies of good oatmeal, and there will, when the work is completed, be a balance of money to be paid them. Already many hun dred tons have been shipped from South Uist, and ship ments are now being made from North Uist of the best kelp ever manufactured on the island.—Glasuow Citizen SAD CATASTROP E.—ReCeD ly at the village of Purton Wilts, three children, named Matthews—one ten, another three years of age, and an infant—were allowed to Wei or carriage on the towing-path of the canal, with a small child's cart The eldest was seated in the vehicle, with and the other was endeavourini, the infant in its arms pull lu along, wnen Lue pule uu emy came out, and the carriage and two children were precipitated into the water. The other little creature ran to some haymakers in a neighbouring field for assistance, but could not make itself understood for crying, and, strange to say, failed to follow it back ; for, on returning alone, it is supposed to have sat down on the bank and cried itself to sleep, it being found in that state some time afterwards. The two children to whom the accident happened were discovered lying dead at the bottom of the canal, with the little cart floating over them. COOKING BY GAS.—Among the novelties produced at the grand agricultural meeting at Exeter was one which excited the curiosity of all. It was the cooking of the monster joint, weighing 5351 b. It wa3 placed in the centre of the Castle-yard, resting on a dripping-pan with bricks around, surrounded with 216 jets of gas, and co vered with sheet-iron. It took five hours to roast, and. consumed 700 feet of gas, of the value of 4s. sd. ; it - being , weighed after being cooked 4971 b. ; the dripping, 2311 b. ; the osmazome, 311 b., thus losing by evaporation only 1l lb. This apparatus was invented and fitted-up by Mr. Warriner, of London, who was prepared to have roasted all the dinner by the same means—that is, 400 chickens, 58 quarters of lamb, and 33 ribs of beef, at the cost of 12s. worth of gas.—Times. [This is not such a novelty as our contemporary imagines. In Mr. Feeney's cuisine all the multifarious operations of roasting, boiling, stew ing, broiling, frying, and braising, are performed by the aid of gas, the heat from tiny and bright jets of which supplies all the calorific agency required, not an ounce of coal, or any other description of fuel, ever being used in the establishment. As to barons of beef,. Feeney has, at various times, served up several of the most !ponderous proportions, and cooked to perfection, as all the gourmets of the Exchange can testify.] WESLEYAN tONFERENCE.. J —The one hundred and se venth annual assembly of the Wesleyan ministers was opened in the metropolis on Wednesday. The number present was about 600. The first business is always to ascertain what vacancies the yearly interval has caused in the legal senate of Methodism—the " One Hundred" ministers perpetuated by the " Deed Poll" of Mr. Wes ley. It was ascertained that there were seven such va cancies. These were supplied as follows :—James Gold ing, by seniority, in the place of Edward Batty, deceased; Charles Prest, by nomination, in the place of John Davis, superannuated ; Benjamin Hudson, by seniority, in the place of William France, superannuated ; Hugh Beech, by seniority, in the place of Richard Reece, deceased ; William Jackson, Ist, by seniority, in the place of Geo. H. Rowe, deceased : Samuel D. Waddy, by nomination, in the place of William Tranter, superannuated ; John Hobson, by seniority, in the place of Maximilian Wilson, superannuated. After the customary acknowledgements by those ministers who had been elected upon nomination, (Messrs. Prest and Waddy,) the " Hundred" being now completed, Conference proceeded to the election of its chief officers—the president and secretary. For the office of president the principal numbers_ were as follow : The Rev. Dr. Beecham, 216 ; Joseph Fowler, 143 ; Dr. Hannah, 14 ; John Lomas, 11. The election was con firmed by the unanimous vote of the Legal Hundred. Dr. Hannah was elected secretary.

NEW TRADE.—To the number of ingenious devices whereby some of the inhabitants of London obtain a livelihood another has just been added. Some specula tive individuals, taking advant age o f th e newly-invented e established a travelling • workshop, with which, after the manner of the tinkers and chairmakers, they move from house to house and clean knives at Id. per dozen. The scene of operation is constructed in the shape of an immense square chest, like the advertising vans, and in it are two or three of the knife-cleaning machines, with a man to work each; and, as is known by those who have seen knives cleaned by the process, the work is done in a very satisfactory manner. THE CREW OF A VESSEL IMPRISONING THEIR CAP TAIN.—The barque .Esther Francis, of Newport, Mon mouthshire, arrived at Falmouth, on Monday, from Ha vannah, under the charge of Mr. Dunipace, the mate. It appears that Mr. Michael, the master, was handcuffed the crew, on June 14. being six days after leaving Ha- vannah, and has thus been confined in his cabin ever since that date. An alleged charge is made that he attempted to poison some person or persons on board, by mixing what is described as " extract of lead" with some water in a jug, to which Mr. Shaw, a passenger, the mate, second mate, and a boy, had access. A magisterial in vestigation is to take place. Lacy, member for Bodmin, has presented a peti tion to the House of Commons from Mr. Rugg, a surgeon, praying the house to institute some stringent police regi4 lations for the sale of milk in London, for the sake of the health of the metropolis. He states that the results of several years' investigation, by microscopical examination _ . and chemical analysis, are, that in most instances the milk is systematically adulterated by the addition of from one third to one-half of water • and, in order to di sgu i se thi s dilution, fraudulent and deleterious admixtures are used, such as flour, starch, size, annatto, magnesia, chalk, trea cle, salt, brains of animals (reduced to an emulsion), and sugar of lead. CONFESSION OF BENNISON..—This unhappy man has, since his condemnation, been confined in the Calton Jail, where he has been very sedulously attended by his former pastor, the Rev. Mr. Hay, Wesleyan minister. He, soon after receiving his sentence, selected Mr. Hay as his spi ritual adviser, and the Rev. Gentleman has since passed the greater portion of each day with him. On Tuesday he emitted a full confession of his guilt, of both the crime of bigamy and of the murder of his second wife, stating that he bought the arsenic, and put a grain or two into the porridge of which the unfortunate woman partook on the Friday night, but afterwards felt a good deal consci ence-stricken for having done so. THE CLAIMANT TO THE DUKEDOM OF DEVONSHIRE. —We find that the alleged genealogy of the Souters is correct. Mrs. Richard Gordon, residing at Hensingharn, is descended, on the female sid e , f rom t h e L a dy M ary and James outer named above, and from her we learn 'the following additional particulars :—Lady Cavendish, giandmother to the present Souters, w as th e d aug ht er of Lord Cavendish, and in her minority married her father's gamekeeper, which so outraged her family that they cut her off. She had a daughter who married Mr. Souter, of the firm of Allison and Co., of this town. Mr. George Hudson, above-named, was captain of a steamer which sailed for some time between Whitehaven and Belfast. His mother was sister to the present Souters.—White haven Herald. THE CANTERBURY ASSOCIATION.--011 Tuesday, a public breakfast was given by the Canterbury Association to the colonists about to take their departure for the set tlement of the association in New Zealand. The enter tainment took place on board the Randolph, in the East India Docks, Blackwall, one of four fine ships chartered for the voyage. The names of the vessels are the Sir George Seymour, the Cressy, the Charlotte Jane and the Randolph : the day appointed for sailing is the 29th of August. From 200 to 300 ladies and g,ntlemen were assembled on the occasion, and the scene which the good ship presented was a most animated and cheering one. Lord Lyttleton filled the chafr. Several addresses were delivered in high praise of the colonial experiment, and the company separated. A son of Lord Wharncliffe is going out wuh the first settlers. CURIOUS PHENOMENON.—A gentleman from Suther land has made us acquainted with a singular phenomenon which was witnessed near Golspie. A severe thunder.. storm had visited the place, accompanied, as usual, by much rain. After the rain had dried up, a powder, re sembling flour of sulphur, was observed along the sides of the small runnels, and the same substance having set tled on the flowers, great numbers of bees were destroyed by sipping from them. One individual lost a complete hive. It is a pity that the substance was not examined. —lnverness Chronicle. DEATHSTRUCK ON HORSEBACK.—On Saturday, a me lancholy circumstance occurred in the family of the Rev. J. Swires, vicar of Manfield, near Darlington. His third daughter, Miss Emma Swires, was riding on horseback in company with her brother, and when near the village of Melsonby he observed his sister sitting unsteadily upon the saddle, and ultimately fall off the horse. As sistance was at hand, but she died almost immediately. It has been ascertained that death resulted from a fit of spasms of the heart. She was only seventeen years of age.—Sunderland Herald. - PLEASANT RAILWAY COMPANION.—A correspondent of the Times says, " Coming up from Guildford this morning by the South-western Railway, in a second class carriage, 11 was somewhat surprised to find in pos session of one of the seats a mad woman, (with two' at tendants, male and female,) who I was informed was being conducted to a mad-house. This woman was raving furiously almost the whole time, and the words she uttered were calculated to disgust any respectable person. There were several ladies in the carriage. I leave you to imagine their feelings." THE WALLS OF BERWICK.—The renowned border town of Berwick, so celebrated in the histories of England and Scotland, and so nixed up with the wars in which this country bore so large a part, as well as• with the Bor der forays of past ages, still retains its ancient fortifica tions—a fine specimen of that description of architecture, and an object of interest to visiters. Unfortunately the old walls belong to the Crown, and, will it he believed, the government officials are actually about to sell the venerable ramparts, as if they were some of the old use less stores in an arsenal. THE NEPAUL PRINCES.—The Nepaulese Ambassador leaves this country this week, and takes with him a young English girl, well known at the West End, of surpassing beauty, and of high spirit —a second Lola Montes, whom she must at least equal in courage to trust herself alone at. Kootmandoo, among the Nepaulese warriors and their wives. Her Majesty has been, it is said, much scanda lized, by the appearance of this young lady in the Ne paulese Ambassador's bor at the Opera, the said box being next the one occupied by Her Majesty herself. He also takes back with him an immense number of rifles, muskets, and fowling-pieces, of swords and bE yonets, a soda-water machine, an ice-making machine, and a set of dissolving views. • SEAWEED FOR Foop.—:There is nothing remarkable, as some of our contemporaries suppose, in the fact that sea-weed is purchased by starving wretches in Leeds and Manchester at three-pence per lb:, while good wheat meal is selling at half that amount. Starvation is a slow process as every one knows who is at all conversant with the annals of the poor. That squalid wretch that per fumes the air with the smoke of tobacco purchased at four shillings the pound, allays the pangs of hunger by process tar less expensive than the consumption of wheaten bread or butcher's meat ; but he would not sub mit to starve on the noxious weed it he could afford to satisfy his appetite, and renew his strength by recourse to nutritivediet of corn and fl,sh.--Netvcastle Journal. SENTENCE OF DEATH FOR MIIRDER.—At Newcastle assizes, on Wednesday, Patrick Forbes was found guilty on the charge of murdering his wife, Bridget Forbes. The judge passed sentence of death without hope of mercy. The prisoner, who appeared in a state of collapse during the trial, swooned away twice while receiving sentence ; and in the midst of the solemn scene, the dauzhler, who - 1 the lobby of the court, on hearing that her father ntenced to death, went into hysterics, and sent "0 father! father ! ' into the court. unable screams of The poor wretch seemed' overpowered, and t _ to raise his hands, desired the policeman to raise his ha to God for him, which they did in an at m to heaven for mercy IRMISEI BETWEEN A C ,titude of suppli- AND SWALLOV curious scene was witnessed the other day in a park at the outskirts of Montrose. A cat was observed attempting to defend herself against the assaults of a n u m b er o f swat- ate by striking with her claws the cat lay quietly down as if she were dead ; and the swallows, deceived by her appearance, desisted from their warfare and mounted into the air. Puss no sooner perceived this than, taking advantage of the opportunity, she bounded off to a place of refuge. Her assailants, having observed her move ments, made after her, but she had got into a place of , lielter before they could reach her. What could have been the cause of the quarrel is a question for naturalists decid —Montro, SENTENCE OF PENANCE.—In the Consistory Court of the diocese of Ripon, on Thursday week, an action for libel and slander was brought by Miss Catherine Mary Luis Fernandes, the second daughter of Mr. J. L. Fer nandes, of Sandal, near Wakefield, against Mr. Joseph Horner, the elder, of Wakefield, corn-miller, and a mem ber of the town council of that borough, for certain slan derous reports which had been circulated by the defendant, tending to prejudice the character and reputation of the plaintiff, and reflecting upon her virtue. The Chancellor, the Rev. John Headlam, decided that the defendant " ought to be duly anc canonically corrected and punish ed," and that he be compelled " to perform n saintary and Littante penance, according to his demerit, for his excess foresaid." The act of penance enjoined is accordingly be performed by the defendant, in the pariah church of Vakefield, on the 25th of August, immediately after the PURSUIT OF CRWICET UNDER DIFFICULTIES.—At a cricket match played at Kendal, on Saturday last, one of the most remarkable features was the playing of Walker, a youth without hands, having been unfortunately de. prived of those useful members by an accident at the paper-mill. He can do anything in the game except bowl he bats very tolerably, catches a ball upon his chest, with the assistance of his arms, and throws up a ball with re markable precision by means of his foot. A WISE MAN (?) ASPIRING TO THE PAPACY.—Dr. Wiseman (the Roman Catholic Bishop, a pamphlet of whose was sedulously distributed among the Anglo- Catholics of St. Martin's-hall) has been made a cardinal, whereby hangs a bile. It is said that our ambitious country man aims at filling the chair of St. Pettr itself, and that, when he is seated in it, the celibacy of the Romish clergy is to be abolished, thereby removing the chief stumbling block in the road to Rome of so many priests of the Church of England and in Scotland.—Manchester Exa miner. A BUFFALO MINT rN . Lcstroow.—Moriday morning, about nine o clock, two young buffaloes were being driven from the terminus of the Great Western Railway, at Pad dington ; when in the Edgware-road some sweeps shaking a soot bag alarmed them, and they started at a terrific pace in the direction of Lisson-grove. Their career was so rapid that several persons, unable to get out of the way, were knocked down and seriously injured, and a Mrs. Le Blanc, of Alpha Cottages - , had her ribs fractured, and sustained other injuries. All efforts to stop them were fruitless; they dashed th roug h R egent ' s P ar k i nto Prim rose Hill Park with increased impetuosity, leaping fences with the greatest ease. The beasts were not secured bet fore seven persons had been seriously injured. TRAtig-SHIPMENT OF GOODS' WITHour EXAMINA TION.—The first instance of the trans-shipment of foreign goods without examination from the vessel in which they had been imported to another for exportation in this port occurred on Wednesday, when Messrs. T. Thompson and Sons discharged several parcels of - German goods from the British Queen into a lighter, in which they were conveyed across the Humber Dock, under the care of a custom-house officer, and were then shipped. on board the William Darlev, for Bombay, without having been subjected to any examination. This does away with a great deal of tumbling about of packages and conse quent injury to goods; but Mr. Thompson still com plains that it is encumbered with too many forms which have to be gone through at the custom-house before the permission can he obtained to trans-ship the goods in this manner.—Hull Advertiser. A DETERMINED JUROR.—At the Stafford assizes,- on Friday night, at ten o'clock, Mr. Justice Williams declared ' he would proceed with another 'case, though the counsel begged hard for an adjournment on the plea of excessive fatigue. After a - long discussion, the judge directed the jury to be sworn and the case to be proceeded with. After the oath had been repeated to the jury, the crier said, " My lord, one of the jurymen refuses to take the oath." Justice Williams:_ " How is that ?" Juryman (produc ing from the depths of his fob an enormous watch; and extending it at arm's length towards his lord - ship :) " Whoy, my board, its noaw moare than ten o'clock, and I'Om now been sitting here and in t'other courts moare than thoirteen hours, and I wo'ant sit no moair this noight if r can help it." (Great laughter, in which the judge joined very good-humouredly.) The judge finding himself thus pressed on all sides adjourned the court. WALKING ONE THOUSAND MILES IN ONE THOUSAND Hovers.—On Monday last by eight o'clock, from 15,000 to 20.000 persons assembled at the pedestrian grounds. Sheffield, to witness Richard Manks walk the last mile of this extraordinary undertaking; which was accomplished in eight minutes and fifty-five seconds. On finishing, the assembled multitude rent the air with continued rounds of applause. At nine o'clock Menke, according to pre vious arrangement, walked a mile for his surgeon, who attended him from the commencement to the finish of his great undertaking, to pay off his bill. He also , alked a mile every two hours up to seven o'clock in the evening, making 1007 miles. The bedroom in which he took h's repose was 66 yards distance from the starting place, and to where he finished and back to bed again ; which makes the total distance walked by Manks, including the seven miles over the thousand, to be 1046i‘miles and 1360 yards. Messrs. Dixon and Sons, silversmiths, Sheffield, are making a handsome and massive silver cup, which is going to be presented to Manks. It is the gift f of the Ist Royal Dragoons, s►... ff THE HYDE PARK EXHIBITION.—T I B private hildren ; and chisement of copyhOld lands, said h Inderstood that for ever operations had been commenced for the a Hyde Park, and that it was intended to r from Hyde Park Corner to Kensington r granite, and also that a part of the road h. to be paved in a similar manner. That, however, minor matter, when compared with the power claime the Attorney-General to shut all the courts azainst Dlicitor who drew the park was suitors, and to decide judicially in all cases , between the crown and other parties. If such power were allowed, no petty state could be more absolute than the Sovereign of this realm.—The Lord Chancellor said if his noble and learned friend would bring on a regular motion, he would undertake to satisfy their lordships that the Attor ney-General possessed the power he had exercised. If private parties supposed they were damaged, they had a legal remedy, and if the public were injured, they might proceed by indictment.— The Marquis of Lansdowne explained that it was intended merely to pave the road in the park from the gate to the place where the building was to be erected, but no other part.—Lord Brougham said he was satisfied with this explanation. THREAT TO ASSASSINATE LORD JOHN William Jones, a mean-looking young man, v up at Marlhorough-street police -court. nn charged with having a letter in his pocket threatening the life of Lord John Russell. The prisoner meta policeman in Piccadilly, on Wednesday evening, and told him he had just picked up .a letter, without address, detailing a conspiracy to assassinate Lord J. Russell. From the confused manner of the prisoner, the policeman said he had better go to the station. The letter is directed to one Roundel], and signed Thom, Spencer, and Duckworth, giving him instructions to shoot Lord J. Russell with a silver silent gun, on Saturday evening next, at Chesham place, and that if Successful each of them would receive £125, and that their escape from England was-arranged. The inspector on duty at the station expressed his belief that the letter was written by the prisoner, and upon searching him he found a letter to the editor of The Times, referring to the death of Sir R. Peel. Several let ters were also found at the prisoner's lodgings, in similar handwriting to the one produced, and it was proved that the letters were in t in prisoner's n7and rambling d handwriting. efe The nce,was prrie round of the testa g it he wa about.

The shape in which this habit of super-addition most MENTS appeals to the senses and becomes most ludicrous, is the material of our armaments. We have a stock of guns, shot, shells. powder, hall-cartridges, rockets, anchors, the most lavish possible consumption for at least three years. Yet, besides deterioration by time, no man would venture to say how much of this vast magazine of de struction has not been superseded by improvements ; so that if we had to prepare for war in good earnest, we should probably have to add new material to our old. At present, if a man proposes an improvement in the musket, he is told he must adapt it to the existing 65 millions of ball cartridges ; and if he thinks he has found out a better cartridge or ball, he is told they must be large enough to fit the existing muskets. Had gun cotton, been found a safe and effective agent, it would have superseded some 170,000 barrels of gunpowder. The fire in the Tower saved us from the necessity of keeping a hundred thousand obsolete muskets ; but nothing is more likely than that our present store will be equally out of date by the time it is wanted. As for our navy, it is becoming almost too tragical an affair to be talked about. We have added three-decker to three-decker and steam-frigate to steam frigate, till all that can be said is that we possess the largest accumulation of rotten wood and rusty iron in the world. It has been our ambition not merely to do every thing as if we did that alone, but to do everything on a grand scale because we do other things on a grand scale. —Times. BALLOON ASCENT ON HORSEBACK.—VauxhaII Gardens were attended by a large concourse of people on Wednes day to witness Mr. Green make an ascent on horseback. A particularly small pony, not larger than an ordinary sized Newfoundland dog, and weighing no more than 2001 b., was introduced to view, and several men were soon employed in the operation of strapping him down to the slender framework, which had been fixed under the hoop of the balloon. This work was superintended by Mr. Green• himself, who evidently did not much relish the experiment in which he had embarked. The feet of the little animal were inserted into sockets cut expressly for the purpose, and fixed therein by leathern straps attached to his fetlocks. A handkerchief was then tied over his eyes, whilst his head was rendered motionless by a nape on either side, fastened to the cords which held the balloon. Whilst this process was going on the spectators took an opportunity of expressing their opinions upon the exhibi tion, and the general impression appeared to be, that the act, if not absolutely cruel, was supremely ridiculous. Everything being arranged, and the pony being, as was supposed, well secured, the " veteran' mounted his charger—a feat which he performed by bestriding the animal like a Colossus—and, placing his feet upon the bags of ballast on either side, the balloon rose and imme diately afterwards the pony gave a plunge, which rendered the position of the aeronaut more perilous than he had anticipated. Mr. Green, however, patted his back, and thus restored him to better humour; and in a few moments the man, pony, and balloon were lost to view. THE IMPORTANCE OF SANITARY REGULATIONS. — That a free supply of light and air is essential to human existence, all the experience of sanitary reformers proves. The agricultural labourer, having an abundant supply of light and air, will live longer, and enjoy better health than the metropolitan working man, now amply fed, but robbed of air and sun. The metropolitan out-door la bourer will live longer than the better fed and clothed tradesman who spends the greater part of his life in a close, dark dwelling. From an analysis of the 60,000 deaths from consumption, which annually take place in England and Wales, the conclusion has been arrived at, that tradesmen are nearly twice as liable to consumption as the gentry, ow i ng c hi e fly to the hot, close, ill-ventilated rksthe day ; that in-door labourers are m ore subject to consump tion wo th hps, in which a o nthosewh th of e former ollow pass their employments many ploy of hours ments out of doors, though exposed to all the inclemencies of the in -door worse food, clothing, and lodgi n g ; and that o f - weather, and earning labourers, those engaged in workshops are more subject l e ss wages, and having consequently to consumption preca u ti onar y do for health may measures will be illus trated by reference to t he small pox.

In Bavaria, as long ago as 1820, this disease was determi nated. Yet in England , through care for the liberty of the subject (?), during the three years ending 1840, the average annual deaths from small pox was TWELVE THOUSAND I—Ths Builder.
