THE LATEST ".CLAIMANT.".

One or two reprint; have gained currency to the effect I
that Lord Fitzgibbon, who "WI supposed to have been
killed in the Balaklave Charge, had returned to England,
ho not having been shot dead, bet taken prisoner, and,
for an insult to a Russian officer, sent to Siberia. It has
also been soil that sines his return he hail paid a visit to
the Hounslow Barracks, were his regiment, the Bth
Hussar*, is stationed, and that el.nel Musai mien and
Qicirtermaster•Sergeant-Major Hefferon (formerly Lord
Fitzgibbon's servant) had identified him. This week
inquiries have been mode as to the truth of the statement
relating to the visit to the barracks, and the reply was that
no person representing himself as heir to the title of Lord
Clock bad been there. Moreover. Qoartermaster-Sergeant-
Major Hefferon and late Trunipet•Major Grey, who were
in the Union, of the Bth Hessars when Lord Fitzsilibon
took the place of Lord f7ardigan'n Aide-de Camp (Captain
Lockwood), and led the troop down to the evermemorable
charge, say they were Hose to him when, not I.MR after the
commencement of the charge, they saw him struck in the
chest almost at the same moment by two bullets and
they distinctly recollect his losing hold of his sword
(which was prevented from falling to the ground by a
Amp which secured it to his arm), eiolently clasping his
arms to his breast and crying out, Olt, my God, my God,
I'm shot I" With what they believe to have been his
dying breath, he exhorted his men not to linger, saying to
them, "Go on." Thus every one believed him to have
died the death of an hero. Ho was shot directly after the
death of captain Nolan. He hail £25 in rash, which was
part of £5O served out on the morning of the charge for
the C Troop. It may be added that when the soldiers
came back, Trumpet-Major Gray and several others
nearehed for the body, but it was never found. If Lord
Fitzgibbon is ready in this country, as alleged, the officers
and Men of the Bth Hussars who knew hint wish to know
why he has been so backward in calling upon them. They
would be glad to see him, and he must know he was
beloved by all of them. The officers who would readily
recognise him and receive him with open arms are—
General de Salim. Colon el Mussenden, and Lieutenant
Harrison late of the Bth Hussars). For the information

AN UNFORTUNATE NOBLEMAN.
We are not alluding to the person who has hitherto
been known under this name, for his fate is perfectly
indifferent to us. We have reason to be more seriously
concerned with one whose very name should make him
interesting to every Englishman, for his father was
foully slain in the exercise of the hidhest duty which
can fall to the lot of any subject—that of representing
the Queen in the far East. 'The late Lord Mayo, has,
however, more claims on our sympathies than the
mere fact that he was Viremy of India, for the short
term during which he held this all-important post was
characterised by many great measures of which be did
not live to see the g‘sid results. He was universally
beloved, respected, and regretted. These are sufficient
reasons why the fate of his son, the present Earl, can
be a matter of indifference to none who knew his
father, and to few of those who did not.
In our last week's issue we mentioned the painful
circumstance that Lord Mayo is at present confined in
the Inland of Jersey as a lunatic, and we publicly
asked a few of the questions which are continually
being naked privately in society and in the army, to
both of which Lord Mayo belonged. We inquired
why his lordship was confined to Jer-ey. and we
pointed out that his friends should, in order to put an
end to reports which do not stop sln,rt of imputing to
them the worst motives, make a clear statement of the
case. We have received a letter al the subject, whi
purp.o.ts to answer our questions, and to prove that
Lord Mayo is really insane. We are not permitted to
publish this letter, as the writer distinctly states that
it is for our private information only. We cannot
therefore do more than inform our readers that our
last week's article is fully justified by it. The English
law does not apply to Jersey; Lord Mayo is no longer
even in the public asylum of that island under the
protection of the Local Lunacy Committee, and no
reason whatever is given why Jersey should have been
preferred to Great Britain.
We understand that Lord Mayo was formerly con-
fined in the lunatic asylum at Gores called the Queens
Farm. This is a large stone building standing in a
garden, which consists of alternate patches of cabbages
and gravel. It is airy, clean, and commodious, and
ealmlated to receive a considerable number of patients.
We are informed that the head keeper of this asylum
was specially deputed to look after Lord Mayo, who
WM the most distinguished patient there.
But the following statements are added, which we
cannot believe to he true. We are told that Lord
Mayo was playing billiards with his keeper, when he
missed a stroke, and in a moment of irritation
flourished his cue about, and broke a small lamp Of
trifling value. That the keeper then rushed at him,
knocked him down, and soused his head in cold water
"to calm his lordship's nerves." That Lord Mayo has
a great objection to wearing patched boots, but that
there are secret reasons why he should not be indulged
with new one.; and that the local cobbler has there
fore been instructed to dirty the new soles which he
puts on his lordship's boots. That the head-keeper
tells strangers that Lord Mayo was very proud when
he came, but that he soon brought his patient's pride
down. That an under-keeper of inferior manners and
no education always accompanies Lord Mayo in his
walks and sleeps in his room. That his lordship's
valet, to whom he was much attached, was dismissed,
it is alleged for motives of economy ' • and that the
cook is now to be similarly dealt with. These servante
are replaced, we are told, by the above-mentioned
bead-keeper and his underling; and this statement Is
singularly confirmed by an advertisement which has
i appeared n the London papers to the effect that a
head male attendant is required for the Jersey
Lunatic Asylum, who must he able to read and write.
For Lord Mayo is now removed to a private home,
which has been hired by his friends. and is pl
under the care of a medkal man and of the two
attendants in question.
We fully believe that thew allegations are not true.
Our sole object in publishing them is in order that
Lord Mayos friends may know what horrible asser-
tions are being made, and may see the necessity of
contradicting them immediately and publicly. It Is
not our business to point out that if his lordship were
removed to England, and placed under the control of
H. M.'s Lunacy Commissioners, these reports would
immediately cease; we think we have shown PILO
enough why Lord Mayo's family should abandon the
reserve they have hitherto adopted, and clear the
atmosphere of all the unpleasant rumours which are
flying about, and of which we have only stated •
il
nal part. —Vanity Fair.

spring of next year. They had also rebuilt that portion of
the stable which was knocked down between the old
chimney and the cottage in which the four persons were
killed by it. fall. Shortly after 4 o'clock on Sunday after-
noon, when the hurricane was at its highest pitch. one of
the chains connecting the iron stays on the south side of
the arimner gave war, and the chimney fell over against
some scaffolding which was standing &mood it, and by
which its downward progress was arrested for a few
minutes only, when the weight and Toiletry. of the huni-
cane sent the chimney and scaffolding down across the
newly erected part of the stable, doing considerable damage
to the elates and roof thereof. After the completion of the
wooden chimney the factory was set going and all the
hands employed, but by this disaster the works or portions
thereof will again be stopped, and many of the hands
thrown out of work. Really a fatality seems to attend
the factory—three times within 20 years considerable
portions of the buildings haring been destroyed by fire,
in addition to the recent disasters.

"LAUGHTER IN CURT."

A correspondent of the Globe sends the following j
amusing extract of a trial from the Canthrilge Chronicle,
about 30 years ago. It is headed " A Facetious
Witness."—ln a trial at the Cambridgeshire Quarter

the bedroom of Mr. George Pointer, of the George and

mathematical instrument maker; weighing-machine,

not a conjuror, as well ?—Mr. Pointer: Oh! yes, that

Mr. Byles : What can you do?— Mr. Pointer: Well,
if you will allow me, and not consider I am insulting,
I will tell you.—Mr. Bytes: Oh ! certainly, go on.—
Mr. Pointer: Then, if you will take off your wig, and

will swallow you whole, and then you will be no more

laughter, in which the Court and the learned counsel
joined).—Mr. Bytes: You may stand down, sir."
