The death of Viscount Gnillamore is announced.
The Queen is at Aldershott, and yesterday reviewed
the troops.
The colonelcy of the 10th Foot is vacant by the
death of Colonel Sir Thomas M'Alahon.

Lord Broughton has taken Tidwortb, the late Mr.
John Assheton Smith's seat in Hants, for a term of
years.
The Spaniard Manzans, who was convicted at the
recent Wilts assizes for murder, was executed yesterday
at Devizes,
It is rumoured that her Majesty, on the 20th of June,
will open the New Museum at Oxford, in the Parks, in
person, accompanied by the Chancellor, the Earl of Derby,
and many others of the most distinguished members of
the university, both resident and non-resident.
SENTENCE OF DEATH COMMUTED.--The Lord Lieu-
tenant has commuted the sentence of death passed at
the late Kerry assizes upon Morgan, for the murder of
his wife, to penal servitude for life. The state of the
couriers mind was the main ground for the merciful
interposition of his Excellency.
A ROYAL "PticasENA.DE."—The journals speak of
daily promenades taken by the King of Prussia ; but,
unfortunately, it is not his Majesty himself who can take
any exercise worth mentioning, as, baring almost lost
his intelligence, he is lifted into a carriage, and driven
slowly about the grounds, and that is all:
CANNON OF THE 16TH CENTURY.—The Spaniards
found at Tetuan the cannons taken from the Portuguese
by the Moors, ou the occasion of Don Sebastian's unfor-
tunate expedition in the sixteenth eentury. They have
all been sent to Portugal by the Spanish government,
and will no doubt find a place in the Lisbon Museum.
TRAINING OF CUCI7:4I3EIII3.—It is a pretty sight to
see a cucumber-house in full bearing when cultivated in
the vine fashion. The long fruits, hanging from every
foot of rafter, and the large bright amber flowers peer-
ing from beneath the broad, rough, green leaves, present
a peculiarly bright picture in the depth of winter, when
all is bare without. —The Garden that Paid the Rti,t,
CURIOUS PHENOMENON.---A curious ornithological
occurrence has been witnessed in the poultry-yard of Mr.
George Hooke, of Guildford. A cock pigeon has paired
with a duck, and sits upon the eggs laid, the duck mean-
while keepiiw,„ watch ty the side of her novel partner.
This extraordinary state of things has continued for
Qr74:l:-.lveC:l3oL'i LASUALTY.—The sue or a nne Young
woman, daughter of Mr. Ward, farmer, of East Ville,
has been sacrificed to the incautious depositing of arsenic
in an improper place. The deceased, who was about 22
years of age, went to a cupboard for some sulphur for
medicinal purposes, and took from the shelf what she
conceived to be that drug in a powdered state, and
swallowed it with some treacle. Medical assistance was
promptly procured, but was unfortunately too late ; she
gradually sank and died.
GANQ OF JUVENILE THIEVES.---The police autho-
rities in Paris have just tried a band of ten boys, aged
from eleven to sixteen, for committing numerous thefts
of articles exposed for sale at shop doora or in the
markets. The band had a captain, a lieutenant, sergeant,
and corporal; and every member of it bore a nickname,
such aS" Saucepan," " I;4olish," " Gray Cow," " My
Aunt," Turnip," od so on. One of the gang was
alleged to have committed as many as thirty-four thefts,
another twenty-eight, another twenty-four, and the
others from nineteen down to two.

PUTTING TOBAcCO INTQ ATEA-XETTLE.—Two young
fellows—John Palmer, a millwright at Mr. Bell's, and
Matthew Martin, in the employ of Mr. Nelson—went
into an inn, to get something to drink, or to see the
girls. They were in the kitchen, and it was about tea-
time. After putting the tea-kettle upon the fire, one of
the servant girls went up stairs to clean herself; and
during her absence the prisoner Palmer lifted up the lid
of the kettle, and dropped some twist tobacco into the
water. Ten persona had their tea made of this poisonous
and disgusting mixture ; and in consequence they were
all severely attacked with sickness and vomiting. The
case of the landlady was very serious—they thought she
watild have died. Happily the children got milk that
afternoon, otherwise this exceedingly foolish joke might
have had a fatal end,
The tenders for £2,660,000 of these debentures was
opened yesterday. The offers, about 400 in number,
were read seriatim, the majority being at prices between
106 aad 106 k. The sealed paper containing the mini-
mum was then opened, and the rate was announced to
be 105. The tenders above that figure amounted
to only £1,570,000, and those below to 4'116,000.
There remains consequently £1,080,000, or 40 per cent.
of the proposed total of £2,650,000 unallotted. The
transaction is not regarded by any means as a success.
The result will convince Colonial borrowers that it is
not expedient to trust to the tondon money market for
the means of launchin into unlimited expenditure.
The distArbance alluded to yesterday occurred en
board the Edgar, 90, screw, Captain Kato; flagship
of
Rear-Admiral I. E. Erskine, second in command of the
channel fleet. It is stated that the marines first dis-
played signs of insubordination relative to leave on the
Monday, which was renewed on the Tuesday, on which
day a portion of the ship's company joined, when there
_.
ensued the usual routine practised of late on such dis-
graceful occasions. Five of the ringleaders, com-
prising two marines, one marine artillery, and
.two
t seamen, were sent on board the Victory, where is
supposed they will be tried for their mutinous conduct,
Various rumours are in circulation as to the cause of
the disturbance and extent. The Sprightly

ordered to bank her fires; and the marines
b,er Majesty's ship Victory were to holdthemoselves in
readiness during last night to proceed in her on board
the Edgar, should their services be required
