Law, the private secretary of Lord John .resell, produced a letter dated the 23d ultimo, and ad ,ressed to his lordship. The terms of the letter were very violent and incoherent; but, although the writer com plained of having been treated with malice and cruelty, the nature of his real or fancied injury did not appear. The threat was contained in the following passage :—" I warn you, by the living God, that if you force me to pass the Rubicon, no trifling concession will appease my out raged feelings," &c. A police inspector stated that this letter was in the prisoner's writing, and added that when he was searched he laid a razor, which he took from his pocket, on the table, saying "There's a razor will cut Lord John Russell's throat." This statement was cor roborated, and the prisoner, who conducted himself with great violence and excitement during the hearing of the t•A• twelve months, and in default committed. COLLISION OF VESSELS.—In the new Steam Navigation Act, which came into force on Thursday, there are several provisions with respect to lights to be carried for guarding against the collision of vessels. The Admiralty is to make regulations as to the exhibition of lights by vessels, which regulations are to be made public, and all existing regula tions on the subject are to continue until revoked. A penalty, not exceeding £2O, is to he imposed for a non observance of the regulations. Rules are made by section 27 to prevent collisions, which are to be observed under a penalty of £2O. In case a collision occurs through a non observance of the rules, the owners are not to be entitled to compensation , except the circumstances justified a de parture from the rule. " And in case any damage to person or property be sustained in consequence of the non observance of any of the said rules, the same shall in all courts of justice be deemed, in the absence of proof to the contrary, to have been occasioned by the wilful default of the master or other person having the charge of such vessel, and such master or other person shall, unless it appears to the court before which the case is tried that the circum stances of the case were such as to justify a departure from the rule, be subject in all proceedings, whether civil or criminal, to the legal consequences of such default."

On the ground floor there was just ire a narrow road to the fire, and up stairs the deceased could only just have found room to get to the bed. The following is a list of the articles found in the house, most !ter of which have, it is stated, been stolen at different times : Tl tk —l4 tons of coals (although it is well ascertained he has only bought one ton for 20 years), a cart load of sticks, a Irot quantity of gate-posts, a pair of harrows, several plough shares, a cart-wheel, sundry posts and rails, a guide-post, )on a quantity of children's wearing apparel, a bushel and a easing half of partly-burned candles, 58 half-worn brooms, a number of spades and shovels, a quantity of linen, prin to children ; a large number of tops, s, which nearly filled a bushel measure ; ..y stones weight of staples, hasps, nails, crooks, &c. ; one sack full of cow-ties and halters, 18 farmers' whips, .on the 18 plough tmes, a large number of rakes and forks, &e.. ' The amount of £650 in sovereigns, spade guineas, toge ther with seven-shilling pieces, were found in different parts of the house ; and although this is not half the amount he was possessed of, yet he pinched himself so much of the necessaries of life, that it is thought his sud den end was brought about principally by his penurious ness.—Eastern Counties Herald. HUSSEY'S REAPING MACHINE.—The sensation pro duced by the introduction of the American reaping machines into this country appears to be fast extending throughout our agricultural districts. At the annual Smithfield prize cattle show. in London, the American in ventions were besieged by land-owners, tenant-farmers, and farm-labourers, each intent upon having a personal inspection of " brother Jonathan's" notions of machiner for cutting an acre and a half of corn per hour. Husse' reaper appears to be the favourite—the sting of of paintings, or, more properly, carvings character. painted and contained in a kind of frame, each having hinges inversely so as to close after the manner of a draught-board in the form of a book. On examination of this piece of mechanism it was found that each of these painted carvings formed a slide, which discovered another carving of an equally elaborate description, but of a grossly obscene character, the figures comprising these obscenities being carvings in ivory representing Chinese characters. It is believed that on no previous occasion has the skill of mechanical art been mere grossly per verted to an improper purpose. The articles were, it seems, in transitts for France, but the authorities have given directions for these obscene carvings to be imme diately and entirely destroyed.
