Colonel Stodare's entertainment seems to be the
positive attraction of the season. His seventh morning
performance on Saturday last,was again honoured with a
most brilliant audience—the little theatre at the Egyptian
Hall was crowded in every part.

THE WINNER OF THE DERBY.—The following is
the exact pedigree of the winner :—Gladiateur is by
Monarque out of Miss Gladiator ; Miss Gladiator was foaled
in France, and got by Gladiator out of Taffrail by Sheet
Anchor; Monarque was foaled in France, got by the Baron,
Sting, or the Emperor ; his dame, Poetess, foaled in France,
by Royal Oak (son of Catton, out of Ada by Whisker, out
of Anna Bella by Shuttle), her dam by Drone out of Con-
tessina. Gladiator, Taffrail, The Baron, Sting, The Em-
peror, Royal Oak, and Ada wore all exported to France
from this country.

A DELIGHTFUL SPECIMEN OF MIXED METAPHOR,
taken from the Washington Star:—" The apple of discord
is now fairly in our midst, and, if not nipped in the bud, it
will burst forth in a conflagration which will deluge the
sea of politics with an earthquake of heresies."
ONE OF THE ODDEST PRINTER'S ERRORS occurred
the other day in an official report on the French budget,
printed in the Modicum A supplement of no less than five
pages of errata has appeared, and one of them says, "at
the end of page 262, for amen,' read amendment.' "
ENVIABLE FAME.—Thackeray, when speaking
about fame, would frequently tell the following anecdote :
—" When at dinner in St. Louis one day, he heard one
waiter say to another, 'Do you know who that is ?' 'No,'
was the answer. ' That is the celebrated Mr. Thacker.'
What's ho done ?" Blessed if I know, was the reply."
THE SEVENTEENTH VOLUME OF THE NAPOLEON

victim. About half-past five o'clock Ralph Field Thomas,
an inspector of Thames police, and his boat's crew, found
the body of a woman floating on the river off the Wapping
entrance of the London Dock. The body was quiet naked
with the exception of an old pair of side-spring boots and
cotton stockings. The crown of the head was severed
apparently by a blow with au adze, and the wound extended
to the nostrils. The brains were absent. There was a gold
ring and keeper on the wedding finger. The body, though
not decomposed, appears to have been in the water about
11 days. The deceased appears between the age of 30 and
40, with long dark hair and complexion. Her height about
sft. 4in., and inclined to be stout. Inspector Thomas, an old
and valuable officer of tho Thames police,caused the body to
be removed to the dead-house in Wapping Churchyard,
and he is of opinion that the deceased has been foully
murdered, and after being stripped of her clothes, to pre-
vent identity, that her body was cast into the Thames
from some barge or vessel in the Poot A rigid inquiry
has been ordered by Mr. Evans, superintendent of the
Thames division of police ; and people who may have re-

The elections for the Folksthing of the Rigsraad.
of Vienna appear to have ended similarly to those at
Copenhagen. The result is that the different shades
of opinion count as many votes as before the late
dissolution.
