THE HoN. Mns. MATHESON, wife of Mr. Matheson, M.P.,
of Ardross, left the house at Inverinate, where the family was
residing, early on Sunday morning se'nnight, to walk to
church, and saunter along the picturesque coast by the way.
She did not appear at church, and not returning to Inverinate,
search was made in the neighbourhood, but without effect.
Early next morning the body of the unfortunate lady was
found in the sea at the base of a rock, which, it is supposed,
she had climbed to enjoy the fine view which it affords.
WITHIN a recent period 600 children have been destroyed
by wolves in the Punjab ; nearly a thousand were some twenty
years ago slaughtered in the same way around Agra. The
ornaments of the infants are generally found in the dens
where their poor bodies are devoured, and those who make a
trade of getting possession of the plunder thus provided to
their hands have created an impression amongst the people
that the village in which a wolf is killed is sure to come to
ruin : and the ferocious brutes, when caught, are frequently
set free with bells around their necks.
JOHN SHERBURNE SHERBURNE, formerly John Sherburne
Tench, a young man who applied last week at the Insolvents'
Court to be discharged, came of age in 1852 with £15,000, and
now owed about £BOO. Large sums he had expended in dogs ;
and since January to his imprisonment he had got rid of about
£l,lOO. A Mr. Redmond held a bill for upwards of £lOO (which
the insolvent said he had given in blank) for wine supplied ;
and among the items of expenditure on the schedule was £7OO
to the Heralds' College on changing his name. The detaining
creditor was his tailor. Case adjourned.
