THE INQUEST' ON TILE BODY.

Saturdiy forenoon, at eleven o'clock, Frederick J. Manning, Esq.,
the Coroner for the precincts and .verge of her Majesty's Palaces, ar-
rived at Hampton Court, and immediaiately issued his. precept for the
summoning of a jury at the Icia;'s Arms Inn.

The Jury, after hearing evidence, returned a verdict of " Wilful
Murder" against John Rickey.

In these times, when the march of intellect has
progressed to such an extent that, in imitation of the French, every one
must have his newspaper or his magazine, the annourseinent of a new
and cheap periodical is likely to create a considerable sensation ; espe
cially when we observe that " Sherwood's Monthly Miscellany," to
which we allude, is to contain as much Letter press for Eighteen pence
as the old.e.itablished magazines at Half-a-Crown. This is a pout de.
Dileratuni ; and if we add to the attraction Two Steel Engravings by
Alfred Crowquill, the facetious rival of George Cruikshank, together
with the assistance of the most eminent literary characters of the day,
we may venture to prophecy that " Sherwood's Monthly Miscellany" will
experience that success which the spirited publishers and conductors of
the work so eminently deserve. We understand that the First Number
will b‘., published on the thirty-first of July.

CI 11CASSIA.—At a time like the present,, when the
subject of the aggressions of Russia is daily becoming more and more a
topic of the greatest importance to all parties, the appearance of Mr.
Spencer's new Travels in the Western Caucasus, being the completion
of his work on " Circassia," cannot but be looked on with the greatest
interest. In these volumes the author has laid open to the world the
ambitious plans of Russia, her unjust invasion of the Circassians, and
various other facts connected with the welfare of this bravo people. The
present work supplies several omissions in the former volumes necessary
to illustrate the character of the war, together with the manners and
customs of the inhabitants of the Western Caucasus. It also contains
an account of Mr. Spencer's tour homeward through some of the most
interesting countries on the Black Sea to Constantinople, and from
thence through Bulgaria, Moldavia, Gallicia, Silesia, &c.

MR. ROEBUCK.—We see in the Glasgow Chro-
nicle the report of a speech made on Monday evening, at the New Sr.
cession Church, by this Gentleman, at a meeting composed of a Com-
mittee of his supporters. In referuree to his journeying to Glasgow, he
said that in addition to the announcements contained in the newspapers
of a vacancy in the representation of Glasgow, he had it from the highest
authority that a vacancy would occur--of this strange affair something
strange would be known hereafter. We do not design to give an outline
