WHY MONET IS HOARDED IN MALTA.—There
are two banks in Malta, writes a correspondent, both con.
fined to local operation, both under the same roof, both
conducted in the same manner, and both managed Ire.
quently by the same directors. Person' depositing money
receive no interest, and if they open a regular account
they have to pay 41. per annum for the accommodation.

This charge prevents many persons from making use of
the banks, sod induces them to hoard op their money in
their own houses, thereby offering a great temptation to
the evil-disposed.

THE ACCIDENT TO THE PHINCESB ALB:E.—The
postillion on the instant after the accident managed the
horses admirably, and et ooze cut them out free of the car-
riage. Mr. Joseph OfOVOll, 8.A., medical student at King's
College. London, oe a Christmas visit to Newport, happened
to be passing with his sister, and ran to the assistance of the
ladies. not knowing at ell who they were. He immediately
raised them front the graced, and carried the Prison'.
who for the moment was prostrate from the shock, across
the road to the gate of the residence of Mrs. Parker,
who happened to be absent from home, and the gate was las-
lased. Her royal highness had by that time recovered
Meetly to walk, leaning ea the arm of Mr. Groves, and accom-
panied by the Hon. Mrs. Bruce, to the next residence, Ilea.
Nose's, when they received every required attention, and
bee royal highness quickly resumed her wonted cheerful-
ems. ' God bless her!" exclaimed an Isle of Wight pea;

The Hoe. Mrs. Bruce bore the shock remarkably well. Mr.
Robert Jacobs. of Hawley, rode up very soon after the acci-
dent and rendered assistance in the way of ordering a carriage
et her Majesty's coscbbitilder's close by, Mr. Dashwood.
In the course of an hour after the accident the Princess
was well on her way to Osborne with the same postillion
and horses, one of which received a very slight injury.
We hear that Mr. Groves was graciously received by the
Prince of Hesse the same evening et Osborne, and heartily
thanked for the attention he had paid to her royal high-
nos. It appears that the accident occurred through thew
tempt of the postillion to pass in that narrow mad between
two carte—one of which was stationary at the approach
of the royal oarriage and the other moving slowly on the
other side of the ;cad, a little is advance, and sud-
denly the horse in the stationary cart turned in to-
wards the hedge and threw the beck of the cart some
Lairs further in the road, and instantly the royal carriage
dashed what it. The cart, in charge of a boy, who wee
not at fault, belonged to the farm at Staplers, io the occu-
pation of Messrs. Mew, of the Bugle Inn, Newport, bad the
shafts broken by the concussion The royal phaeton was a
plain, strong, old-fashioned vehicle for two, on low wheels,
and was said to have belonged to the late King George IV. ;
a broken spring was all the injury it appeared to have sus-
tained by the collision. The inhabitants were very happy
to hear next day, through the rev. the vicar of the parish
of Newport, that her royal highness was quite welL—

CeNoNs ON TRIAL.—Oa TUeaday and %del:4-
day lest ten clergymen, who had been selected front a con-
siderable number of applicants by the dean end chapter,
oo account of the excellence of their testimonials, were
called upon to undergo a trial in the cathedral, as re'
garde their special qualiikatioos, for the two vacant
minor renoories. They were required, in the presence
of the Dean. Archdeacon Homy, Chancellor Lear, the Sub.
dean, and other clerical and lay members of the cathedral.
to reed a chapter from Holy Scripture, which had been
&elected, to chant seemed parte of the service, including
portraits of the Litany according to Tallis, and to sing from
mote. The good reeding, and correct and pleasing chanting
and singing of mayoral of the candidates were much admired.
The Dees sod Chapter may have some difficulty in choosing
the two gentlemen in all respects beet fitted for their office,
but we have sot a doubt that those selected from such a
list will prove themselves most efficieet members of our
cathedral body. The election will take place on the pith of
Jeentry.—Salidoiry Journal.
EXTRAOEDINLET &OAPS PROM CumuNG, —On
Saturday last, at the Peebles Freemasons' dinner, John
Somerville, shoemaker, was observed to be choked by a piece
of meet lodging in his throat. It is supposed to have been
caused by his speaking while eating. lie was carried out
apparently dead, and medical aid was immediately pro-
cured, when Dr. Riddell promptly performed the operation
of tracheotomy. or opening the windpipe—keeping up &Ai-
finial respiration—by which the man • life was saved. The
piece of meat was afterwards extracted, and we understand
the man, though confined to bed, is doing natl.—Border
Advertiser.
