DEATH OF MR. BRODERICK.—We regret
to have the painful duty of recording the death of that
eminent and promising Counsel, Mr. Ilitontarcx, who
died yesterday morning, at the Saracen's Head Hotel in
this town. lie had long practised at the Old Bailey bar,
and was looked upon by the Bench as a man of consider-
acumen and good understanding. It was expected he
would shortly have been raised to the Bench. Ilia
appears to have been the suppressed gout, caused, it is said,
by taking too much of the medicine which is so generally
administered—" colchicum." He suffered, it is said, very
considerably, and for some days his life W.lti despaired
We hear he was related to our respectable banker, W. G.
!furrow, Esq., with whom be had been spending a few
days.—Newark Times.

REPEAL OF lIIE UNION.--Yesterday there
was a meeting of the Corporation of Shoemakers htld in
their Hall, Wellington-quay. Mr. I. B. HYT►tfL, who is
a member of the Guild, was in attendance, and gave
notice of a motion for the next day of meeting, for a pe-
tition praying thr the repeal of the Union.—Dublin
Morning Register.

We can now state from unquestionable au-
thority, that the laming promotions in the Church are
certain, and may be 'dually expected to appear in the
Gazette:-1)r. IlrrnEL, Bishop of Exeter, to the See of
Bangor, vacant by the death of Dr. MaJrtismit ; awl Dr.
PHILLPOTTS, Dean of Chester, to that of Exeter;retain-
ing the richaiving of Stanhope and his present valuable
Deanery. Of all those noble, honourable, and reverend
individuals who ratted upon a late memorable occasion,
we certainly think that 1)r. Priutrorra has brought his
aportacy to the best market.—Cumberlaml Packet.

The Lynchburg, Virginia paper, for the 19th
of August, gives a long account of the execution of a man
named Jones, and of his extraordinary conduct on the
scaffold, in the following words :—" About three o'clock
he signified to the Town Serjeant his readiness, for the
last act of the affecting tragedy. Ills hands and feet
were then, as is customary, tied together, the former be-
hind him, and the rope adjusted to the transverse beam of
the gallows, when, with a calmness and indifference,
equalled only by his firmness, he pulled off his shoes,
stripped oft his coat, partially unbuttoned his vest, and
unfastened the collar of his shirt, and then with an un-
shaken step mounted the scaffold !!" Now, of a verity,
these are very extraordinary performances for a man in
his situation, with his hands and feet tied; bot these
Americans are such a marvellously clever people ! We
once heard of a Kentucky man, whose amazing strength
was attended with very fatal consequences. He was cut-
ting
a slice of bread and butter, when the knife slipped,
and cut himself in half, and two men behind him !

A CONVERT TO THE NEW POLICE.—A
singular circumstance took place previous the lite Pan-
cras Meeting against the New Police, and at which the
Chairman lost his watch and money. It appears that
another gentleman had promised to attend as Chairman,
but a day or two before be was robbed by a man-servant
of 300/. He made an immediate Appeal to one of the ob-
noxious new Police, and this man, by his activity and
prompt measures, succeeded in obtaining restitution of the
whole of the lost treasure. Oae fact, they s. y, is worth
fifty arguments, and after this service he candidly confessed
he could not be so ungrateful as to appear at a meeting at
which the merits of such men were to be denied.

LAMENTABLE FANATICISM.—On Friday
se'nnight were brought into the County Lunatic Asylum,
at Bodmin, two brothers, the oldest 2l years of age, and
the youngest aged 20, sons of Mr. SAUNDERS, a respect.
able farmer of the pariah of Warleggan. A few night,'
previous to their confinement, the one awoke his bedfellow,
and greatly alarmed him, by saying that he had plucked
out his right eye, and cast it from him, and that he was
now prepared for Heaven ! The man with whom he
slept immediately called the father, and a light having
been procured, it was ascertained that such was the fact—
the eye was completely forced out of its socket, and was
found on the bed ! The next morning the other brother
was discovered with a hatchet, and was about to cut off his
right arm, stating that his left should not know what his
right did !

ST. DUNSTAN'S CHURCH*, FLEET-STREET.
—Nothing now remains of this venerable pile of architec-
ture besides the embattled wall fronting Fleet-street, with
its clock and well-known figures, and the square tower
in the passage leading to Clifford's Inn. The interior has
been completely gutted, and the wall leading to the burial-
ground rased to its foundation, so that the burial-ground
and the body of the church now form one common area.
The square tower in Clifl4(Pa-inn-passage, being in sub-
stantial repair, and standing sufficiently back from the
street, will be suffered to remain, and will form the tower
of the new church. The wall in Fleet-street, with the
clock, &c., is also to be left standing till the new church is
completed. The bodies buried in vaults under the tahurch
have been moved into large a vault which extends under
Fleet street, and which, as soon as it is ascertained that
no more bodies remain to be moved, will be blocked up.
In the course of searching the vaults, the body of a fe-
male was found in remarkable preservation ; the coffin
and shroud were completely decayed, but the body re-
mained perfect, even to the hair and teeth. The only
change it had undergone was that the skin had become
tough, like leather.

utH SHOPS.--Mr. THOMAS SPRING, a
publican, in the City-road, on being asked by the Beer
Trade Committee, last &ession, according to their recently-
printed Report, " Has there been any increase in the
number of public-houses which may be termed ' gin-
shops'?" replied, " I have been where I am twenty-six
years, and I believe that every one of the houses in our
parish which are, to use the Magistrates' own expressions,
'.}luring and glaring gin-shops,' have all been established
within the last fifteen or sixteen years. We have got a
gin-spinner in our parish that drives his carriage and
four in as great a style almost as his Majesty t'
The Committee added, " Is hen proprietor of a com-
mon gin•shop?" " Nothing else, (answered 111 r.
k4ruutu.) He has built a place which, I under-
stand, has cost him about ten thousand pounds." [Mr. S.
then mentioned the name.) There is DO sale of beer in
that house whatever ; and when it was opened therti Wn*
such a scene there as never took plane tieforl,: there were
