Tai STRANGE DIBAPPICARA3O3.—No trace of Mr.
Winstanley, the highlsberiff of Leisesteshire, ban yet
been discovered. It is feared that some fatal calamity
has befallen him. It is stated that on quitting his hotel
at ollrestone he left in his carpet bag £6O, which he
bad token with him to meet his travelling expenses.
This fact does not favour some of the early surmises
that he had left the eountry. Moreover, there appears
to be no cause whatever for seah a step, and several
engagements that be had made show that a few days
before his disappearance he could not be contemplating
such an event Mr. Winstaaley is the owner of estates
of great extent and value, the heir to which is the son
of his sister, who at present resides in Australia.

ELOPINENT EXTRAOHDINARY.—An elopement under
very peculiar circumstances took plies on Saturday at
Irthlingberough, a small village in Northamptonshire,
about a mile front the Higham Ferrers station of the
London and North-Western Railway. On the day
mentioned, • youth of prepossessing appearance, appa-
rently about fifteen years of age, attended by a boy
whose features were concealed by • slow:Med hat, rode
up to the Bull Inn end aaked to be provided with rooms
for himself and servant. Apartmenta were accordingly
shown him by the landlady, and accepted as suitable.
He next particularly requested that the homes might be
fed with raw beef, ache was about to undertake a long
journey, and then retired with his servant to their re-
spective rooms' having previously ordered breakfast at
eight o'clock, and requested to be called punctually an
hour earlier. At that time the next morning the Nit.-
maid went upstairs, but to her aatoniehment found both
rooms vacant, and on the young gentleman's dressing
table was the subjoined poetical effusion :—" Respected
Sir,
I long weed your daughter—my suit you denied ;
Love swells like the Solway, but ebbs like its tide;.
And now I am off with the bride of my heart,
. .

To be wedded this day, and never toart.
I love her sincerely, and rather would die
Than live but to lose her, forsake her, or fly.
Yours respectfully, ALBUM E. CLUITON."—Tbe occur-
rence became, of course, the subject of village gossip,
but no clue could be gained as to the whereabouts or
intentions of the young travellers, until about two
o'clock in the afternoon, when a carriage and pair were
driven up to the inn, containing a lady and gentleman,
both evidently labouring under great mental anxiety.
It was ascertained from the latter that the fugitives
had been traced to the village, having eloped from
place beyond Bedford, the residence of the father of the
supposed servant, but in reality • young lady not mueh
more than twelve years old, whom her youthful ad-
mirer had persuade/ to elope. The gentleman,
name is said to be Radcliffe, having baited his
horses, at once proceeded in quest of these very juvenile
lovers.

POLICZ AID COIIBTABIILAITT.—The Judicial Statistics
for England and Wsks,lB6l,on Wedneeday presented to
Portisment, show, as compared with the preeeding
year, an increase in the police and manstabulary force
of the eoulitry, and in their *este; a decrease in the
number of the criminal classes at large and known to
the police, audio the number of houses of bed character
which they fteenent ; an inconsiderable increase in the
number of the indictable offenoes reported by the
police with it larger increase in the number of appre-
hensions, and of the commitments which followed ;
and also an increase in the number of summary cow
tictions.

TICREAVREENTB or ,roz Amsaremr WAR. The
bereaventents of the war—so far as the single city of
New Chicano is ednoorned—have a dreadful exemplifica-
tion in the appalling fact, admitted by the Della, that
there are now no fewer than twenty-four hundred
orphan childrei in the luryhtins of that city.—Canades

A NOVEL COWPITITION FOR A NOVEL PHUR.—The

THE WELL AT CAWNPORZ.-011 Wednesday A very
interesting but melancholy addition—melancholy both
for its own terrible associations and from the fact of its
having been sent to the Exhibition by Lord Canning a
few days before his death—was placed in the English
architectural gallery. This is a beautifully executed
model of the monument which I. being erected by the
Government of India over the fatal well of Cawnporst
The monument is designed by Colonel Yale, of the
Bengal Engineers, and is being executed under the
superintendence of -It. Thornhill, of the Bengal
