Sir Lucelles %liras&ll is engaged (says the Athe-
;mu rn) iu writing, partly from his family papers, "A Life
of Caroline Matilda, Queen of Denmark." The subject is one
of romantic interest; and Sir Lascelles's grandfather is
likely to have known a groat deal about it.

Next year (observes the Atheneum) will be Shake-
pears's year ; and the Avehreological Institute have very
wisely chosen Warwick as the seat of their next Con-
grew. The Rev. Mr. Hartaboine has undertaken to
get up the story of Kenilworth Castle, and Prof. Willis
that of Coventry Cathedral. Stratford will, of course, be
one of the main excursions, and the recent repairs of the
parish church, the tomb of Shakspeare, will come under
the notice of a very critical and learned audience.

A new series of experiments (says the Army and
Navy Gazette) will be carried on on an extended scale at
Newhaven by the Ordnance Select Committee, for the pur-
pose of testing the fuses submitted by Colonel Boxer.
Superintendent of the Laboratory Department, together
with some other fusee which have been laid before them.
Until these trials are completed, and a better lase obtained,
the committee have recommended a return to the compo-
sition of the late Captain Mooreom, which has so long stood
the test of actual service without serious deterioration.

WILL OF THE LATE SIR GEORGE Lzwiff.—The
will of the Right Hoe. Sir George Commall Lewis,
Bart., D.C.L. M.P., P.C.. of Hariton Court, sear Rad-
nor' South Wales, and Kent House, Kstightsge, was
proved in London by his brother, the Rev. Sir Gilbert
Freakland Lewis, M.A., Canon of Worcester. rand dean,
And rector of Mothington-on-Wye, Herefordshire, the sole
executor. The personal property was sworn under 20,0001.
The testator has bequeathed to his wife, Lady Maria The-
resa Lewis, beyond her marriage settlement, all bia property
in British. foreign, and colonial securities, for her own
absolute use, also his town residence, Kent House, with the
furniture and other effects; but, as respects jewellery, Sir
George directs that the diamonds presented to her Isdyship
by the late baronet's father, the Right Hon. Sir T. F. Lewis,
Bart, shall, upon her ladyship's decease, become the pro-
party of his (the testator's( brother, the successor to the
title and estates, whom he Ina appointed residuary I..tee
of both his real and personal property. The will bears
date the 9th of December, 1801, and is attested by B.
Charles Stephenson, War-office, and F. J. Nicholl, Carey-
street—lllustrated News.

UNIVERSITY COLLEGE HOSPITAL—The friends
of University College Hospital will have:the satisfaction
of learning from an advertisement that the needs of the
institution are not lost sight of during the vacation. We
allude to the munificent donation of 3001. received yester-
day from an unknown Day.
EMIGRATION FROM SOUTH WALLY. —The en&
gratioo from all parts of South Wales, mom especially
from the coal and iron districts, continues, and, judging
from the large numbers that leave weekly, there is no
' prospect of a cessation at the movement. Paddlers, coition,
and others employed about the coal and iron works form
the majority of the emigrants. and by far the greater
number emigrate to the States. The extent of the emigre-
tion may be inferred from the tact that one ironwork is at
present short of 400 bands.
ALPINE CLIMBING. —A correspondent of the
Tinos ouggesta, in reference to this subject, that the chief
of the Society of Guides at Chamouniz should as• that
every wan is properly equipped before the ascent is at-
tempted. He adds —" They are very careless of them-
selves. I saw myself, last month, no less than five men
frost-bitten, one or two severely so. Lees of heeds or feet
is, in such case, loss of their means of livelihood. With
proper precaution this may be avoided. In the Arctic Sons,
under the judicious management of our officers, men re-
turned to their ships, alter 9J days absence (with the ther-
moweter seldom above zero), without • single instance of
front-hits. Surely Hoot Blanc is to be ascended without'
the suffering I have witnessed."
THE PRIZE FIGHT BETWEEN TRAVERS AND
DILLOS. —A statement has been published that Travois has
died from injuries received in his recent light with Dillon.
Bell's Lift of to-day contains no confirmation of this ; on
the contrary, it says that Travers, though he was obliged
to remain in the country for two or three days in conse-
quence of his injuries, returned to London yesterday. It
also says that the disputed stakes, namely, 4001., have been
awarded to Dillon.

EXTRAORDINARY DEPRAVITY. shocking cane
of juvenile depravity came before the magistrate (Mr. Rose),
at Fenton policipeourt, Longton, yesterday. Five youths
and boys—one 19, another 17, and three about 14
vein of age—named William Bryan, James Ridge,
William Heath, Frederick Lockett, and David Lockett,
were brought up under a warrant charged with criminally
amenities Mary Ann Hales, a girl of eleven, the daughter
of • baker living in Russell-street. Mr. Stevenson ap-
peared for the prosecution, and Mr. Adderley for the
defence. The evidence is totally unfit for publication.
On the application of Mr. Adderley, the prisoners were
remanded to Wednesday. —Binning/um Post.
