MIXED MARRIAGES

The; d Evening Mail has the following' remarks
upon tiiro-marriage in Rome, according to the rites of
the';'Romaii, ..Qathalicr Chuvh; of the ;Marquis and
Marchibness of 'Sligo. Dr. Cullen having. dbterttiined fo
carry 4urthe decrees of the Synod .of Thurres to the :very
letter, and efforts to procure a dispensation from the Court
of Rome proved abortive, and every obstacle to prevent
the marriage frnin tmtitfe .p.mte :Vas•thrown in the way
by. the- Church .authorities at home and abroad.:. The
lady, however, remained firm, and, eventually the
ceremony was solemnized, by a Protestant clergyman.
The. intoldrant decree being thus practically set at
nought, it doubtless struck Dr. Cullen and his abettors
that the' next itep.:on. the part of the.recnsant .would
be a total secession from mother church, and, as the
latter; has: an especial lofe - for her 'titled children,
it was-. cteMed . the, safer policy to, strike after a: faint:

DEATNESS.—Having been consulted by Mr. Gos.slett, a
gentleman holding a high situation in one of the public
offices- in Dublin, who had been deaf nearly forty
.years,
and pronounced incurable by several eminent aurists, I
did not consider myself justified in holding out to him
any hopes of recovery. Ho then put himself under the
care of Madame Gardner, by whose judicious treatment
he has been restored to his. hearing ; and as I have both
seen and examined him since his recovery, I should be
wanting in candour did I withhold this statement of the
fact.—J. W. Graites, late surgeon H.M.S.—Dublin, 20th

been receiving his pension in Ashton, on Wednesday,
.and, on going home, he met with the prisoner in King-
street, Dukinfield, and, after having had some drink,
the prisoner undertook to see the prosecutor home. Tie
accordingly went with him, and when he got to Newton
Wood, the prisoner knocked the prosecutor down, and
felt in several of his pockets, but did not find any money
in the
.first instance, the prosecutor having his money in
a secret pocket. He then went away, and the old man
called oat, whereupon the prisoner returned, and asked
what was to do, and ultimately, on finding out where
the prosecutor's money was, took it out of his breast
pocket, and ran away.. The old Juan had his head cut,
and was bleeding at the month when discovered. The
prisoner was committed to Chester for trial.

poor man residing' at a short distance from the seventh
lock on the Royal Canal, went, on Thursday .evening, to
• fetch some., water. Not returning, her brothers and
sisters became alarined - and, on going to the canal bank,
they saw the jug which the little girl had carried with
her floating bn the water. Information having been
conveyed to the station, police-eonstable 63 D, proceeded

engaged. in the search, the constable found the drag
resisted by some soft substance. After vigorous efforts,
he succeeded in bringing to the surface the body of
a man ; which, on being got,ashore, seemed by the dress,
&C., to be that of a gentleman, and to have been in the
water about three -weeks, decomposition having gone on
extensively. Around the neck of the body a red silk
handkerchiefwas knotted by one of its ends,.whilit to the
other end was. attached a- piece of brass, weighing 201 b.
This mass of metal was found to have belonged-to a force
pump. The body of the deceased appeared to be that of
a man about 27 years old, about five feet seven inches
in height, wearing short dark whiskers and dark hair.
The body was conveyed to St. George's Cemetery, Whit-
worth Read. The sum of ,ss. 9d. and a bunch of keys
were found in the pockets. The body of the little girl,
Mary Gartland, has since been taken out of the canal.
The Freeman's Journal reports at length the inquest on
the body of the' gentleman. The verdict was " Found
drowned." The body has been identified as that of Mr.

son of a wine merchant, Capel-
street, Dublin„ •
