CRANMER. BY A MEMBER OF THE It 2 It;
VRGIIE CLUB.—This romance will, we suspect, not 011;
the first instance of a "Member of the Roxburghe
having excited a strong interest and curiosity in tbe
rary world. Whether the celebrated "Bibliomanisea
the writer of " Crantner" be one and the same individual'
is more than we are allowed to learn ; nor is the seas,
likely to transpire, as the novel consists, in a great cell
sure, of true, and not too tenderly drawn pictures of "r life," of our own day. The whole plan and style of the
work are of the most singular and original character.,l',7
it includes a variety of topics which are rarely tott.'..doe°
upon in works of this nature.
LUDLOW ELECTION.—Another Liberal ineill‘
ber has been elected in Ludlow. When the twelve th rFd-
presentaes of this county were all Tories, it was sat.%
that the late Lord Lieutenant jocularly called them "1-
" Twelve Apostles." Two of those apostles, howevcri
were crucified in Bishop's Castle by the Reform Act; °lli
two have been since crucified in Ludlow by the Libe'
opinions of the Electors in that spirited town. Tbia,llls(!'t
has been achieved, in consequence of the Reform Art; ,
cannot, therefore, be said, that that Act has entirely faded
in giving the power to honest electors of superseding a It
urinated candidate by one of their own choice, By t"-
strenuous exertions of the electors, the borough of Ludlow
has now resumed its honourable position as the consi,teet
supporter of Liberal Opinions. The Clives, of Styche'
were formerly Whigs; and Ludlow was well

FATAL ACCIDENT ON THE THAMES.-1911
Monday evening, about ten o'clock, as Messrs. Robing)°,
Junes, JiLb, Hart, and Davis, belonging to the firm of
Honeywell:and Black, were returning from the Whit°
House, Battersea, when about to pass through one of the
arches of Westminster-bridge the waterman (Hawkins),
findino• a great resistance from the tide, which was running
very high at the time, endeavoured to back the boat, when
it was dashed against a barge, and immediately upset, pre-
cipitating the whole party into the water. Several boats
put off to render them assistance, and after some time fear
of the unfortunate sufferers were picked up and taken int°,
the Swan tap, and Mr. M'Caun, surgeon to the Royal
Humane Society, was sent for, who quickly arrived, and
employed the most active measures for restoring animation,
which he succeeded in doing to all of them ; unfortunately,
Mr. Davis was drowned, and his body has not yet been found.
ARSON AND ROBBERY.-Information was re-
ceived by the police that some thieves bad broken into an
unoccupied house, No. 16, Princes-street, Rotberhitbe,
and stole nearly all the sashes and glass, and had after-
war
ds set fire to the house in several places, but will',
had fortunately smouldered away without doing nine.
