EAST SURREY.

(Before Mr. BRETT.)
The case of the Rev. Mr. Rose, Minister of the parish
of St. Thomas, Southwark, came again under consideration
this day, when

Mr. BRETT decided that the claim was a good one.
Two other claims, presenting no novel feature, were de-
cided ; several adjourned cases from Clapham were then
disposed of, and the business of registration in this district
concluded.

The Barristers will sit at the Vestry-hall, Camberwell,
,o-morrow.

The following is the result of the revision of lists in this
district :

SUICIDES.—On Friday last a waiter at Ridley's
Hotel, Tullamore, while labouring under the effects of in-
toxication, cut his throat with a razor. Every possible sur-
gic 1 aid was tried to save the wretched man from the fatal
effects of his insane conduct, but in vain : he expired on
Sunday. A woman named Shaw, the wife of a respectable
carpenter, Tullamore, also attempted to put an end to her
existence, in the latter end of last week, by cutting her
throat with a razor. The wound, however, was not found
to be fatal, and the usual surgical operation being performed,
she was left in a fair way of recovery. This melancholy
affair was also the effect of intemperance.—Freeman's
Journal.

On Wednesday, the 20th ult., a fatal accident oc-
curred to Mr. Wheatley, the well-known book and picture.
auctioneer, of Piccadilly, London, who, accompanied by
his wife, had been visiting his relatives at the Reindeer Inn,
Louth. Having resolved to return to town by way of
Rasen, he procured a phaeton of Mr. Ashton, Walker-
gate, with a boy to drive it. On the road, Mr. Wheatley
had occasion to complain of the boy's furious driving, but
he, regardless of all remonstrances, still continued to slog
the horse, which commenced kicking, and galloped down
Willingham-hill with great speed. Whilst turning the angle
from the New-hill to the village, the phaeton was over-
. turned, and fell with a tremendous concussion upon Mr.
Wheatley, who was dreadfully bruised, and had his ribs
broken in several places. Mrs. Wheatley was also much
hurt, but the boy escaped with trifling injury. They were
carried to the Willingham-corner Inn, where every assist-
ance that professional skill could devise was rendered by
Mr. Cumpstone, of Market Rasen, who happened to be in
the village at the time. Mr. Wheatley, however, after
much suffering (mortification having ensued), expired the
following day. Mr. Wheatley had been particularly anxious
to have a chaise, but to oblige his wife, who was desirous
to see the neighbourhood she had not previously visited, he
consented to hire a phaeton, particularly requesting to have
a steady horse and a careful driver. He had intended to
have been in town the following day, having to dispose of a
nobleman's library. He has left a son and daughter by a
former wife, and two children by his present wife, to whom
lie had not been long married. Mrs. Wheatley is rapidly
recovering, although suffering great affliction at her sudden
and awful bereavement. Mr. Wheatley was educated at
the Blue Coat School, Lincoln.—Lincoln Gazette.

A correspondent of the New York Evening Post,
writing from Chicago, Illinois, describes very feelingly the
demand for young, handsome, and interesting helpmates in
these regions, where the " lords of the creation" are far
more numerous than samples of " womankind :"—" Inte-
resting women are in demand here—for such the market is
a sure one. I understand, when the steam-boats arrive from
Buffalo and Detroit, that nearly all business is suspended,
and crowds of desolate rich young bachelors flock to the
pier, and stand ready to catch the girls as they land. Whe-
ther they use lasso, an accomplishment which some of them
have acquired in catching ponies on the rocky mountain; or
whether they take them by the force of smiles, I am not in-
formed ; having just arrived I cannot speak from observa-
tion ; but I believe the result to be a pretty universal
surrender."

MACCLESFIELD.—There is a comparative suspen-
sion of the large purchases of yarns which have recently
been making for shipment, and the market is consequently
quiet ; nor indeed, is it expected that much will be done
either in goods or twist on continental account until after
the termination of the approaching German. fairs. There
are no symptoms of want of confidence, however, or of a
decided decline of prices. The home trade, we are glad to
say, is, and for some weeks has been brisk, both the London
and country houses having been buying extensively. The
present favourable weather for bringing the harvest to a
close, will, no doubt, have a tendency to keep this branch of
business in activity.—Afacelevield Paper.
A few days ago as a farmer's wife, residing betwixt
Easingwold and Thirsk, was searching in the pasture for
hens' nests, one of the cows attacked her, and struck one
of its horns under her chin, which penetrated through the
roof of her mouth, lacerating it in a most frightful man ner.
Her daughter, who witnessed the distresfang scene, se zed
a large stick, and happily succeeded in driving the furious
animal away, otherwise the unfortunate woman wc .uld Lave
been destroyed on the spot.
