GEORGE TRAILL, Esq. was returned, on

A letter from Vienna of the 25th of August,
states that M. DE MErrEaNicn is said seriously to intend
retiring from public affairs, and that the Archduke
CHARLES will take the supreme direction.
A German Paper, under the date of Vienna,
May 5, says " The title of Count, of ItstEs Count Von
LocxliAßT, the Emperor's Chamberlain, Major-General,
and Knight of the Order of Maria Theresa, becoming
extinct by the death of his son, without children, his
Imperial hiaaEsrr has been pleased to transfer the title
to his great nephew, Sir CHARLES MACDONALD LOCK.
HART, Baronet, of the Kingdom of Great Britain."
The PoLIGNAC family is originally Venetian;
the name is Pollastrone, which means larye capon. This
name, being somewhat rustic, was but rarely used. They
bought the Polignac estate, near Puy-en-Velly, and took
that name. They were not known in France before the
time of CATHERINE DE MEDICIL
BARONESS DE FEUCIIERES.—This lady, to
whom the Duke of BOURBON has bequeathed so much
property, is an Englishwoman, named DawEs, with whom
the Duke became acquainted in London, and who followed
him on his return to France. This lady has since mar-
ried, but still resided with the Prince, who (says the Afes.
sayer des Chansbres)
so generously recompensed the at-
tachment she had evinced towards him.—Aforning Paper.
Yesterday evening, about six o'clock, a female
curiously attired, was observed to walk several times up
and down Panton-street, Haymarket, talking loudly to
herself; at length, perceiving herself noticed, she ran in
the direction of Oxford-street, when, pulling a knife from
her reticule, the unfortunate lady plunged it twice in her
bosom, and was in the act of repeating it, when her arm
was seized hold of, and the knife taken from her. In this
dreadful situation she was conveyed to the nearest hospital.
There is no doubt of her insanity. By a document found
in her reticule she appears to be the widow of Captain
Slats, late of the 60th Foot.
A new species of corn from China has been
introduced into Ireland, a sort of skinless oats, the most
valuable produced in any country. It has many advan.
Cages over other grain—when thrashed from the sheaf, it
is exactly like oatmeal, lit for immediate use, and free
from any particle of rind or husk. The flavour is deli-
cious, and it contains much farinaceous matter. There
accrues, of course, a great saving of the oats, and expense
of kiln drying, grinding, and sifting, is avoided. The
average produce is 26 barrels of 14 stone, to the Irish acre.
It is remarkably hardy, and well adapted for this climate
--Limerick Chronicle.

Partridge shooting commenced on Wednes-
day ; but as a great portion of the corn in this county is
still outstanding, there will be but little sport for some time
to come. Several sportsmen, indeed, have agreed not to
commence operations until the first of October.— Carlisle

The Edinburgh Advertiser, when noticing
the manlier of eminent persons who had consulted Sr.
JOHN LONG, the London quack, says--" The whole case
opens up a scene of secret imbecility and superstition, as
connected with the better orders of English society, which
we could not before have supposed possible. After this,
associations for the diffusion of knowledge among the
workiag classes are a libel ; those bumble but enlightened
rnen ought to put them out of countenance by entering
into sixpenny subscriptions for the instruction of the great."
JOHN BUNYAN.—Coming once out of his
pulpit, some of his friends went to shake hands, and tell '
him what a sweet sermon lie had delivered. " Aye,"
said he, " you need not remind me of that; the devil
told me of it before I was out of the pulpit."—Southey's
Life of Bunon.

SINGULAR PETRIFACTION.--In the new
harbour at present forming by Mr. CAOELL, to the west-
ward of Coskenzie, a singular discovery was made some
days ugs. lu lifting the bed of rock, which is a sort
Of whitish sandstone, and rather soft, the workmen
were surprised at discovering the trunk of a tree in a
state of the most complete petrifaction. The tree
has apparently been of the fir species, and scenic to
have been cut shout two feet from the root. A solid
bed of sandstone, three Ad in depth, was abore it, As
great care will be taken in the future working of the
stone about it, the ramifications of the root will in
all probability be discovered in the same state. Small
roots have at. different times been discovered in a petrified
state, hut the alcove is the first trunk which has been seen.

Au instance of provincial candour enlivened
the ceremony of presenting to his MAJESTY on Thor/day
last at Paris. The head of ono of the deputations from
one of our small towns hail just terminated his
address to the King of the Far:Nen, when his MAJESTY,
with that affAili:y which so much distinguishes him, amid

pleasure of dining with us to-morrow ?" .6 Ah mon
