AItIIVED. —Fnondear.

M. Munk, • member of the Jewish persuasion,
is said to be the person chosen by the French Minister of
Public Inattectio• to take the place of M. Boom as pro.
feuor of Hebrew, Syriac, and Chaldaic at the College de
France. The nomination of an Israelite is perhaps to show
that the objections to M. Ronan were not solely on amount
of hie private opinions.

It i; understood that an arrangement is in pro-
gress by which the Weiner of the British and American Ex-
change Bank will be transferred to the London and
Colonial Bank, which at present carrier on asthma in
Canada and the West Indies. By thin arrangement the
capital of the London and Colonial Bank will be increased
to 3,000,0001., of which 450,00 W. will be paid up.
SAD TZIMINATION TO • PLI•BI7RE PARTY.
On Monday Robert Brown, a pitman, belonging to Hart-
ley—the scene of the awful pit calamity two years ago—
who had been tiled for shooting previoialy, was brought
before the Tynemouth county magietraten upon • charge
of causing the death of Ralph Mow upon St. Mary's Isle,
on Saturday night. Without going into my evidence, the
prisoner was remanded for a week ; but from a statement
made by Mr. Woolley, deputy chief oonatable for North.
umberland, it appears that a pic-nic Party had bean held
%upon the pretty little ialet of St. Mary's, on Saturday.
fortunately, after the party broke up, • portion of the
company adjourned to a all public-house, which is kept
by a liahmman oo the Wand. Amongst the mummy were
Ralph Mow and his brother William Mow; about 8
o'clock in the evening, while the party were regaling them-
selves, the prima'', who had been shooting seagulls on
the cast, came into the room, carrying his gas. which was
lueded. He demanded threepence of William Mow to get
a pint of ale. Be refusal him, when he pointed his gun at
him from his knee, and threatened with loud oaths that he
would shoot him. Mow took hold of the barrel of the gun
to shove it from him, and his brother Ralph, the decreed,
ran to his brother's aid, to try to protect him from the
threatened violence of the prisoner. It is awatively stated
that Brown at once and with deliberation fired tim gnu at
Ralph, though not from the shoulder. Be that as it may,
the gun was discharged, and the contents passed through
the unfortunate man, Ralph Mow's, thigh, comic`` out at
the hip. Though medical mid was procured, the deaesasd
only lived until 1 o'clock on Sunday morning. Brown was
at once apprehended, and he is kept in custody at Tyne-
mouth.

HEALTH Or LONDON. —lt appears from the re-
turn issued by the Registrar-Geoeral that the deaths in
Loodon were 1,213 in the week that ended on the 4th inst.;
they row to 1,285 in the week that ended last Saturday.
In the last four weeks the mean temperature of the air
was successively 61.8 dugs., 52.0 delta., 50.4 dogs., and 59.6
dep., showing great fluctuation. The increase of deaths
last week was entirely amoopt persons of middle age (20-
.)0 years). the numbers in that period having be.. in the
two weeks 328 sad 388. The average number of deaths iu
the twenty-third week of ten years 1851-63 is, with a oor-
rection for Mamma populatsoo, 1,155. The excma is the
present return above the estimated number is therefore
very considerable, and amounts to 130 deaths. At the present
time the mast fatal complaint in she epidemic class is tamales,
to which 82 deaths are referred.
i Typhus was fatal in 51
oase whooping-cough in 50, scarlaturs n 47, diarrhea in
19, diphtheria is 11, small-pox in 5. Nearly half of the
deaths from measles occurred to children one year old and
less than two years. Five deaths from this disease were
recorded in the sab.district of Gray's-into-lane, 6 in Islington,
5 in South Hackney, 9in the district of Shoreditch, 7 in
Bethnals, 9 in St. Gcorge's-in-the-East (6 of which were
in the subdistrict of St. Mary), 8 in St. Luke. Mamie@
I prevails chiefly is the Fast dietricts. Typhus was returned
in 5 cases In the sub-district of Mile-end New Town. Last
week the births of 985 boys sad 938 girls, in all 1,923 chil-
dren, wore registered in London. In the ten corresponding
weeks of the years 1854-63 the average number (corrected)
was 1,887.
FAILURE OF THE NEWFOUNDLAND SELL FISHING.
—We are sorry to bear that the latest advice. from New.
foundlead state that the seal fishing them has bee.
almost a total failure this seams--only some 40,000 seal
having bear aseght by the fleet of 300 vowels. The
steamer Wolf, which left this pert some time ago for
the fishing on that coast, got jammed in the los all
the spring, and has had no more success than her neigh-
' bows. A letter from Greenspond, dated 23rd April.
says :—" Some sixteen vessels, we hear, are lost, among
which are the Breathes. White; Shannon. Ferrel; Avalon,
Cleary; Elizabeth, Courage ; and the Barvadoq, Barry,
baloegiog to J. sod W. Carter, of this plain. The crews
of the Shannon, Avalon, sod Elizabeth are now here, and
more are expected daily from Twillingate, so we fear we
shall soon be overrun with shipwrecked crews. 140 vessels
reported in Grew Bay—in fact, nearly all of the vessels out
of the country are along the coast from Twillingate to this,
and not one trip of seals smoeg the whole."—Dander Adm.
ti•er.

THE VALUE OF ♦ PAPER DOLLAR IN SPECIE.—
To uncertain the value of a paper dollar, at whatever rate of
premium gold is selling, multiply 100 by 100 and divide by
the value of a gold dollar. For example, if it require 1118
until in paper money to procure 100 cents in gold. what is
' 100 cents in paper money worth in gold' Multiply 100 by
100, and divide by 168, and the result will show that •
fraction more than 59i cents in gold is equivalent to one
dollar of paper money.—A stencils paper.

After loonies Osuaburg.strest our sculptor wee uo longer
sustained by that vivacity which had in • great measure
upheld him in his severest trials. In hie poor abode in
Charlotteatreet he surrounded himself with a meagre
salvage from the dispenion of his works. He main-
tained the •pprerance of occupation; there was
always a wet clay bust in the room, but his
sitters were few, sad they now paid iudifferectly. He
was much cocooned about his dog, which wee complained
of by the landlady, but he said with deep feeling that, after
• warm attachment on both sides for so many yearn, he
could not poison him. A fortnight before his death
he complained of tingling and twitching at his finger
ends, and some short time afterwards he fell suddenly
in the street. The same thing occurred a second time,
after which he was conveyed to Middlesex Hos-
pital, where be received every attention. He wee not
aware t►at death was so near at hand, although he felt he
bad sot keg to live. He was visited by his deaf and dumb
assistant, with whom be communicated freely by means of
the manual alphabet and signs. 13ehnes threw his head
back, and placed his fingers on his eyelids, as if closing
them. His companion nodded. The @Metro's next set was
to convey his wish that a cast of his features should betaken
after death, which he did by running his fingers round hie
face from the forehead to beneath the chin. His deaf and
dumb friend again nodded. He instantly understood
a sign, but the dying sculptor, for such in truth
then was his condition, was precise in hie in-
structions. Haying assured himself that GOOD perfectly
understood him, be wished to express " not yet," for his
own =pumice was that be bad some time to live l and this
be did, It is reported, by apply* his thumb to his me, so
making • aims that is street slang is celled " bang a

many years faithful to him, earned out his 'unmake's—
a out was taken, from which it is proposed to execute a
bust for press•tation to the Royal Portrait Gallery.—
