An extraordinary occurrence created alarm in
Cork some evenings ago. An officer, late of the 13th Light
Infantry, rode through the streets in an inebriate state,
and into several shops, and at length he had to be dragged
off the animal by a number of policemen, who had to give
chase after him. He was fined by the magistrates 51. foe
his escapade.
A young English pickpocket, only 17 years old.
calling himself " John Johnson," and caught in the act of
practising his profession in the waiting room of the
Northern Railway Terminus at Paris, was sentenced on
Saturday by the police-court to 13 months' imprisonment.

NEL..AN AND COLLINGWOOP. —How beantifully
he (Ctllingwvoil) glided into Trafalgar, is the Itoy.d Sove-
reign, at the head of the les division. in advance of the
whole fleet, everybody knows. And he had taken care in
the morning to put on silk stockings, that if he wax hit
about the legs he might give the less trouble to the cur.
geon. There was, indeed. • delightful vein of homeliness
about "0:1 CL:blie." as, by a playful abbreviation of his
Christian nan.e, Cuthbert, the service used to call him.
But neither his simplicity nor his practiad command of
seamanship. 'lasso to its mechanical details ever the least
d minished the high veneration with which be was re-
garded. All that good old school, careful of their seamen,
who worshipped them, strict but just to subordinate
officers, exacted from the world a proper respect for their
condition and pretensions. In fact, their sensitiveness as
to their treatment sometimes disturbed the harmony of
squadrons in a very disagreeable way. When Nelson wag
detached to Egypt over the heads of senior officers, Sir
John Ord called Lord St. Vincent out, and was sent home
to England ; and about that time nearly all friendly in.
tercourse was interrupted in the Mediterranean tlect.
Nobody will wonder at all this who has even a glimmer of a
notion of what the weariness of the common run of the
old life was. There were blockades in which a ship never
dropped anchor from Christmas to Christmas. Colling-
swood was away from his beloved home for years before Me
death, having hardly tasted what to him was the sweetest
of life's pleasures, except by snatcl.es ; and he died at ~es.
in 11110, less gloriously, but scarcely less painfully, than
Nelson, and before his natural time—worn out by sheer
labour, and true to the last to England. There is some.
thing characteristic in the dying words of the two admi.
rals. " I have nut been • event sinner, 'lector," Nelson
said to the chaplain, with a mournful pathos : and then,
" Thank God,l have done my duty !" Collingwoodt
words were happier, as, we are inclined to think that, is
spite of its inferior 'splendour, his whole life had bees.
He had reviewed," he mid," his peal life, and his mind
was at rest ;" and though be spoke of his absent family,
and of the great contest in which he left his country en.
oged, it was with calm resignation. And so Cuthbert,
Lord Collingwood, breathed his last on salt water, as
Horatio, Lord Nelson, had ; and was laid beside him
under the vast dome of St. Paul's, beneath which they are
taking their well-earned rest,—

Where the flan tight Y heanl no Work
And the .Wren I ai ceased to blue.
