His companions, perceiving some ominous preparations in progress, wisely took their departure ; and Walton, having been repeat edly remonstrated with, and cautioned to no effect, was delivered into the hands of the proper officers to lie ini tiated in the mysteries of Odd Fellowship. Preparatory :0 the commencement of the ceremony he was blindfolded, mid then thrown down somewhat after the fashion of a China man about to receive the bastinado. In this position he was firmly held by four stout fellows, and a portion of his clothes being removed, the actual cautery (as a surgeon would say), as well as in the shape of a real red-hot poker, was applied three seve ral times with such effect that at any future period during his life he will be able to show sufficient proof of his havin g undergone this portion of the initiation formula.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, T BEG to offer myself again to your notice as a CANDI -1 DATE for the Office of SURGEON ACCOUCH EUR to your Charitp, vacant through the sudden and lamentable death of Dr. Malins. Having, for the last twelve years, directed my attention chiefly to the study of that branch of our profession, and part of that time under the superintendance of Mr. Batty, (one of the Surgeons to the Charity,) I trust I shall not be deemed unworthy of your support. With a grateful remembrance of past favours, I have the honour to remain, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, HENRY SOMERSET TAYLOR, M.R.C.S.L. 8, Stafford-street, 27th February, 1843. TO THE GOVERNORS AND SUBSCRIBERS TO THE LADIES' CHARITY. LADIRS AND GENTLKMEN. IRESPECTFULLY beg to offer myself as CANDIDATE for the vacant Office of HONORARY SURGEON to your excellent Charity. And have the honour to remain, Your obedient Servant, THOMAS HAYES. 7, Falkland-street, Feb. 28th, 1843. TO THE SUBSCRIBERS TO THL LIVERPOOL LADIES' CHARITY. R. DAVID CHALMERS, EVERTON. begs to offer I I himself as a CANDIDATE for the Office of SUR GEON, vacant by the sudden and lamented death of Dr. Matins. Mr. C. has had practical experience in this branch of his profession for the last twelve years. Enerton, February 28. A bundle of bank notes, to the amount of £1,900, which ago, took on the table of a gentlem an in Limerick, a few days took fire by accidental com munication with the candle, a nd d the owner being short sig hted, did not a pp rehend the dan ger until they were almost wholly consumed. A meeting of the London and Westminster Bank was held on Wednesday last. The profits for the year amounted to £54,843 18s. 11d., and out of this a dividend of six per cent. per annum had been paid for the half. year ending 30th Ju n e last, and a similar dividend was declared for the last half year. REPEAL OF THE UNION. —Tuesday last was signalised in the municipal annals of Dublin by the motion of Mr. Alder man O'Connell in favour of a repeal of the union. The learned alderman occupied four hours and a half in the re delivery of all the speeches he has ever spoken on the sub ject; and the best part of the day being thus worn out, little or nothing could be heard but the reply of Mr. Alderman Butt. On the rising of Mr. Guinness to address the house, it was then found too late to continue the discussion, and an adjournment to Wednesday was the consequence. On the latter day Alderman Guinness seconded the amendment of Alderman Butt, and the debate was proceeding when the Dublin evening papers of Wednesday went to press. In the course of Tuesday morning, and the preceding evening, seven men were taken into custody by the Glasgow police, on a very serious charge of grain stealing. Five of the prisoners were the responsible keepers of three extensive stores in Glasgow and suburbs, and the remaining two are a baker and a person in his employment. The length of time during which this system of theft has been going on is not known, but it is believed that the gross amount of which the factors have been robbed is very extensive. From the confi dential character of the men who have given way to dishonest practices, no suspicion was attached to them ; the more especially as they h a d it in their pow er to send away cart loads of wheat in the open day, which was ground into flour, and afterwards disposed of for their advantage.

THE NEW GOVERNOR OF VAN DIEMEN'S LAND.—At a meeting of the Warwickshire Conservative Association, con vened upon the retirement from the reps , sen-•itioD of the county of Sir Eardley Wilmot, Bart., who has acce,,ted the office of Governor of Van Diemen's Land, a vote of thanks to Sir Eardley was proposed by James Lloyd, Esq., and voted to him enthus iastically by uniform steady the msociation, for h S s upport of the conservative cause, and for tl e great services he has rendered the county during the ten years he h as represented it in parliament. The hon. harem t has for a longer period filled the important office of chain an f the Warsviclismre Quarter ::,essimis, wid in the discharge of its delicate judicial duties, as well as those which embrace the administration of the county funds, he has ever united the testimony o f all parties in approbation ins of histution conduct.
