He is a man of great wealth, and in religion a Mahomme-
dan. The object of his visit to England is to see the
country. He was accompanied by four attendants—
handsome-looking men, with immense beards, all dressed
in the costume of Scinde. Major Bird, the agent of the
ex-King of Oude, left the Indus at Malta to proceed to
England via Marseilles. The major will regulate the
movements of his Majesty with regard to his visit to this
country.

EXTRAOhDINARY CASE OF HOUSEBREARING. —At the
Gloucestershire quarter-sessions, on Friday afternoon
last, Mr. Henry Gyde, a respectable tradesman of Pains-
wick, and highly connected, was tried on a charge of bnr-
glary under the following circumstances : A lady named
Griffin, living at Painswick, went to London in 1853,
leaving the house in charge of a servant. The prisoner,
who was an intimate friend, soon afterwards wrote to her
that he had taken charge of the house. In January last
he wrote to Miss Griffin that the house had been broken
into, and many articles stolen. A watch was set, and the
prisoner was seen to enter the house with a false key,
and, proceeding up stairs, took and carried away a mantle.
He was apprehended with the article in his possession.
Sentence, four months' imprisonment.
SINGULAR SUICIDE.—At the Maidstone Borough Quarter
Sessions, an elderly man, named George Usborne, carrier,
76, was, after a lengthened trial, convicted for receiving a
quantity of beans, the property of Mr. Chas. Peppercorn,
and sentenced to tour months' hard lubour. Osborne was
removed to the county prison, where during the night he
committed suicide by suffocating himself. The turnkey,
on opening his cell in the morning, found him lying upon
his face, dead. It was found that he had thrown his bed
upon the floor, had filled his nostrils with pieces of rags,
his mouth with his handkerchief, and had tied another
handkerchief over his mouth ; after which he must have
thrown himself down upon his face. It is supposed that
the disgrace of a conviction, after having foe so many
years borne a good character, was his reason for com-
mitting the rash deed.

AN OLD SCORE CLEARED UP.—Do you recollect how, a few
months since, we had tidings that the British Admiral and
the American Commodore at Rio Janeiro came near to an
exchange of shots, over the hull of a peaceful, harmless,
quiet merchant steamer, pursuing her way from this port
to San Francisco ? Do you remember how the steamer-
skipper swore that she was bona fide the property of
American owners, ani that she badn't an ounce of Russian
property on board—and how the brave Commodore
backed.up his countryman by protesting upon his word of
honour that the insinuation against the America (thus was
the steamer named) were totally unfounded—and finally,
how the Commodore prevailed, for naval officers don't like
to mistrust their brethren sailing under a different flag?
Whether all this has, or has not, slipped your memory, it
occur red in the month of February last, though the
denouement is but just announced. The shipping list of
San Francisco, for the 17th of May, registers the arrival
the " steamer America (Russian) from New York, &c.,
consigned to It. Kostrominoff I" Mr. Caleb Cusing is a
great enforcer of the Neutrality Laws, and can obtain
evidence more readily than prosecutors in general. We
recommend the whole case therefore to his attention, and
that of Mr. Dobbin, Secretary of the Navy. We shall,
however, perhaps hear that the transfer of the vessel from
