'THE WORLD OF FASHION.

The portraits of Miss Fanny Kemble, as she
appears in her different attitudes of Juliet and
Bf4vidern, do credit to the proprietors of this
Miscellany, which is further graced by a few
?losable articles. The " Bridal Dress" is a
•ecnarkably rich engraving, and sits well on the
7,raceful young creature that wears it.

THE POLAR:STAR.
The first and second volume of this Miscel-
any, which is a continuation, on an improved
a similar work entitled the Extractor,
ire now tying before us. From the very cursory
;lance we have yet bee❑ able to cast on them, they
ypear to be a well-selected collection of the
most interesting tales, anecdotes, criticisms,
essays on men, manners, and things, from the
lifferent periodicals that have appeared for the
last six months. We should add that the ma-
ority of these, where inconveniently long, have
)een abridged with great skill and taste.

Court Journal of to-morrow, being the
fret Number for 1830, will combine greater attractions
haul of those which have preceded it. Among the
kurnerons other papers will be one called " The Female
..Nttestrians of the year 1830," naming all the most dis-
inguisbed, characterising their style of dress, their mode
►4 riding, their horses, &e. ; but the article, which will,
perhaps. excite still greater interest, particularly among
lac Fesuale Nobility, is a Poem called " The Garland of
Bearay," which names and characterises nearly all the
mown women of the day who have peculiar personal at-
*Cow, to the number of about forty!

A white hare was coursed and killed in the

EXTRAORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCE.--A
NrSOU residing in Lower Seymour-street, Euston-square,
tad three children, the eldest a girl of twelve years old,
tow an idiot, and indulged in very extraordinary propel-
hiss. She delighted in inflicting pain on others, and was
matinaally pinching and scratching her little brother and
incr. She was sometimes permitted to walk on the flags
*fore the door, and she always ran at every person that
'used by to stretch and pinch them in the same manner ;
ad whenever she excited a complaint, she answered by a
cad hysterical laugh of pleasure. It was found, how-
'Tee, that if her hands were kept employed it was some
,estraint on this propensity ; and for this purpose they
'at them into a cord, which she pinched and
eratehed as if it were a thing that had feeling, and
oughed when she thought she inflicted pain on it. She
was left the other day in a room with no one but her
orotha, and sister. Her mother presently heard violent
aught-r, and the other children ran out saying that her
dna, z was on fire. Her mother, on entering the room,
head her sitting on the carpet all in a blaze, and laughing
Mry heartily. She had, it appeared, gone to the ire,
istO which she put the cord, and the blaze running along
t cormkunicated to her dress. Every assistance was ren-
flered to her, but she WAS so burnt that she died the next
ay 21 great agony.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—A Paris Paper of
Sunday contains the following relation :—" A young man,
iccompanied by A female, who appeared rather older than
himself, went to a low lodging-house, in the Rue de
Gsl'lue, and hired a room for the night. They installed
themselves in it directly, and hermetically stopped up all
'le tom. Yesterday evening, at ten o'clock, the master
of the house becoming suspicious, went to the Commissary
of Pan", *hr, immediately went back with him, accom-
panied by a surgeon. They knocked several times at the
door ; and no answer bring returned, a locksmith was sent
far in order to break it open. A most lamentable
tacle presented itself ; the two lovers were in bed, andspec
were in a dying condition, from the effects of charcoal,
which bad been placed in a large tureen by the side of the
WI The most prompt succour was rendered to the un-
fortrnate beings, and in half an hour they were happily
both restored to life. It appears that the young man was
induced to make this attempt at suicide by the advice of
his mistress, who finding that she had not a comfortable
home, determined upon putting an end to her sufferings.
Every necessary precaution had been taken to prevent the
failure of their plan ; they had both a large quantity of
charcoal, and before their attempt to suffocate themselves
they had made a will, which was found in their room,
signed by them both. They have been sent to the hospi-
tal of La Charite, and are now almost recovered. The
bong man appears glad that he has escaped from so im-
*Client a death ; but the woman, on the contrary, seems
to regret that she has been saved, and has even openly
declare,' her intention of relining herself from her do-
ale"is Rubles.
