THE DIAAMATLANCE OF ME. DODD, THE SOLl-
crroz.—This morning information was received that the
body of lir. E. Dodd. the solicitor, of Bucklerabury, who
disappeared on the gird ult. in such • mysterious manner
from his villa at Wimbledon, and who, it was suspected,
had been robbed and made away with by some gipsies with
whom he was seen on Wimbledon-common, had been
found in the Thames at Hampton Court The deo;ssed'soost/y
watch and appendages, about 51. in money, and other valua-
bles, were found on his person, so that there is now no ma-
ma to believe that be had been subjected to foul treatment.
The supposition is that the unfortunate gentleman must
have missed his way y and have fallen into the river, which is
now very much &Wed. At the inquest an open verdict
was retnreed. _ _ _

THE VACANT 00/I,OIPEWIFI IP TOR MIDDLESEX. —The
freeholders of Middlesex will have no lack of candidates
from whom to select a successor to the late Mr. Wakley in
the corooership for Middlesex, a host of gentlemen having
already offered themselves. Mr. J. Alley Jones, a liberal
agent in electioneering contests; Mr. C. E. LOWill, who acts
in the same capacity for the conservatives, offer themselves.
Mr. Jones relies upon his professional connexion with the
county for many years past. while Mr. Lewis grounds his
claim upon 21 years of active and unceasing exertion in the
profession of tbe law. Dr. W. B. Musket, University
Medalist in Medicine, late resident physician at
Bt. Marylebone Infirmary, offers himself. Mr. Sleigh,
the banister, intimates he intention to become
a candidate in the event of a division of
the county taking place and a third coroner appointed.
Mr. F. Charley, the coroner for Buckinghamshire, says his
duties do not occupy him more than one day in the week,
and he is willing to undertake the duties of the Middlesex
coronership in addition to his present labours. Dr. Edwin
Lankeeter, in offering his services to the freeholders, states
that for the last 20 years he has bean engaged in cultivating
and teaching these breaches of science on a knowledge of
which the judicious performance of the duties of a coroner
depends ; and Mr. Thomas Wakley, a Fellow of the Royal
College of per, a sot of the late coroner, who at first
offered hinted as a candidate, has now withdrawn his
name, on the ground that the division of the western dis-
trict into two subdistricte would so much diminish the
duties and eatolumeata sa not to justify him in relinquishing
his profession.
