COROER'S COURT.

The Coroner held thefollow'ng inquest; yesterday :
Oa the body of a boy named Edward William;, aged 12,
who residel with his mother in'Uppor Man-stmet, and
whose body was found in the river on Tuesday. It,
appeared that on Sunday, the 23rd nit , the boy was misvtd,
and was not heard of since, until his body was found
floating in the river as stated. In c'nnexion with thi,
case, there was another inquest held on the body of Richd.
Roberts, 26 year; of age, who was also fond in river.
The deceased was described as an expert swimmer, aed on
the evening of the 23rd ult., he was p using near a place
called " Knott's Hole," near the Dirgle, when he and a
friend were ,alarmi.d by cries of distress. He proceeded
there and found that a boy had got into the bolo, and
there was a cap floating on the water. The deceased
jumped in, but sunk at once. He rose again and cried to
his comrade, 0, Dick," sank, and was not sem after until
the body was discovered. The cap proved to belong to
the boy Williams. The jury, in retuning a verdict of
accidental death, made a presentment to the Dock Corn-
mitte of the danger of the hole in question, in which there
were no loss that ;eight persons drowned during the last
year.

ANOTHER GENTLEMA.N ACCIDENTALLY SHOT DcAD.—
CASTLEBAR, AUGUST 28.—1 t becomes my painful duty, as
your correspon lent, to announce the sad tid ngs of the
death of Mr. Smith, of Drogheda, a fine young fellow, in
the full flush aed prime of manhood, only 22 year of age.
As he and hie friend, Mr. St.lUeorge Edwards, of the same
plac., were going over the Moors, grouse shooting, between
Glenhist and Newportpratt, on this unraing, one of their
dogs came to the set on the mountain of Guntnahelta.
Both gentlemen then hurried up to the spot where the dog
Will, each anxious to have a shot at the grouse. Mr.
Edwards' gun was on full cock. In his anxiety to arrive
first and take down his bird, his foot tripped in the
heaths-, he stunib'ed and fell, and the gun went (,fi,
lodging the contents of one or b )th barrels (I cannot say
whiob) in the spine of the back of his companion, poor
Mr. Sarith. Tne unhappy young gentleman expiry-d in
about twe:ltY tniciotes afterwards.—Correspondent of Mt

THE COURT, &c.

OSBORNE, Dec. 11.—The Queen and Prince Consort, the
Princess Royal sad Princess Alice, returned to Osborl„t
four o'clock yesterday, from Alverbanli.

The Earl of St. Germans, Lord Steward of the House_
held, had an audience of the Queen ',to present an address
from the House of Lords to her Majesty.

MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCESS ROI AL.—As the 25th of
January next is now definitively fixed for this interesting
event, great preparations are being made at St. James's
Palace, where the grand festivals in honour of the royal
naptials will take place. Workmen are busily employed
in the Banquetting Hall and the adjoining apartments.
The Chapel Royal was closed on Sunday last, that it may
be decorated for the celebration of the welding. It will
be prepared in the style which was followed when her
Majesty the Queen and Prince Consort were united. The
whole arrangements are under the superintendence of Sir
Benjamin Hall.

DRAMATIC CELEBRATION OF THE APPROACBING WED-
DING.—The marriage of the Princess Royal is to be cele-
brated at the Chapel Royal, St. James's, on the 25th of
January, and we understand that in honour of the occasion
the Queen has commanded three performances to take
place at her Majesty's Theatre. They are to consist of a
tragedy, a comedy, and an opera. The tragedy is to be
performed o❑ the 18th, " ltracbeth" has been selected, and
the production of it confided to Mr. Phelps. It is expected
that the cast will comprise all the dramatic strength which
can bo brought to bear en the occasion, and we hear
rumours that Miss Helen Faucit is likely to represent
Lady Macieth. The opera is to be Balfe's " Rose cf
Castilla," which is now being represented at the Lyceum.
We believe that the comedy has not been finally chosen,
but conclude that it will be one of Shakspcare's or Sher*.
clan's. As the metropolis will be full of foreigners, and
special representatives of every court will be here, we have
no doubt that the various managers to whom these per-
formances are entrusted will make every exertion to carry
them out with eclat.—Literary Gazette:
It is stated to be her Majesty's intention to visit Aln wiek
Castle when the works now in progress are more ad-
vanced.

TUE PRINCESS ALICP.—A telegraph from Paris an-
nounces that letters from the Hague, dated the 7th instant,
stc.te that Lieutenant-General Van Omphal has set out for
London on a mission, of which the object is to demand
officially for the Prince of Orange, the hand of the
Prilcass Alice, daughter of Queen Victoria.

THE FRENCH LANGUAGE.
(.. The principles of nature appear so simple, that many, consiclatti
them acknowledged facts, or undisputed truisms, do not deerktll7
worthy of notice. Thus has been rejected the fundamtntal,tl"
that th. ear alone causes that engue to move; for, had this 'Tea
dilly reflected upon, it mus!, one period or another,
to the discovery of the true method of teaching langaagee.
Dufief.
mONS. RAGONOT (of Paris), AuthaA of the
"Symbolic Anglo-French Vocabulary ;" and of the.
"Easiest and Shortest Method of Learning French." The unsucce*
r°. fulness of the prevailing mode of teaching foreign languages is P hot
verbial ; and what other results can b. looked for, when the teac'd
in general considers himself justified in disregarding the lavls,.bA
nature so far as to endeavour to impart sounds by the medium of ,t
eyes, and teach the science of a language before the pupil can lisp
simplest accents? With such a theory all human devices must ne.4,
sarily fail ; and hence the.numerous complaints of wasted tints
ineffectual endeavours, from those who have laboured in vain; i,
the general notion that a language can be acquired only in the CO
try where it is spoken ; hence the despair of many students of P`.
01
Fren,:h language of even understandlng the rapid conversation
natives of France.
All these deplorable consequences may be obviated by the na
system of teaching languages adopted by Mona. Ragonot.

To carry oxt the system in its perfection, it is desirable +hit
several members of a family should take lessons together, inn'"
