SUDDEN DEATH AT TIV. GREAT EASTERN RAIL-
WAY STATlON.—Yestqday iihout noon an awful instance of
t: e uncertainty of life occurred in the waiting-room of the
Great Eastern Railway stati, n, Shpreditch, to a lady named
Mary Killingback, aged 76 years, who resided in Essex
It appears that the deceased was waiting for a train, when
she was observed to fall upon the floor. &yore' of the pas-
sengers ran to her assistance and raised her, but she was
perfectly insensible. Dr. Gayten, of Brick-lane, and other
medical gentlemen were sent for, but on their arrival life
was found to be extinct. The body was subsequently con-
veyed to the workhouse of St. Leonard, Shoreditch, to await
an inquest. The deceased it is supposed died from disease
of the heart.

LEGAL TOPICS OF THE WEEK.—In the Course of
a tri,l at York, says the Law Times of to-
day, on a bill of excep ions being tenderer), Baron Martin
said, "he wished to state, for the information of the bar,
that he had recently occasion to consider the matter, and
he was of op nion that a bill of exceptions must be sealed
before judgment is s;gned. If necessary, he would order
the signing of the judgment to be postponed, in order to
allow time to have the bill of exceptions sealed." This is
an important change in the practice.
POOR RELIEF IN THE NORTH.—The monthly
returns published by the Poor Law Board, showing the
number of paupers relieved in the manufacturing districts
affected by the present distress, have been completed to the
end of February. The highest point of pauperism attained
was in the first week of December last. The number re-
lieved then reached 284,418 ; in the last week of February,
1863, it had fallen to 229,564. In the first week of Decem-
ber, 1861, it WAS but 71,573.
