DENMARK.

A Royal decree has been published at Copen-
hagen, convoking the States of Holstein for the
sth of October next at Ilzeho. M. Schcol de
Pinneberg is appointed Royal Commissioner.
The Post Ampt Gazette of Frankfort, under date
of Holstein, 21st, says :—" A Royal decree has
appeared, 'which repeals a former one, ordering
that the Danish language alone could be used in
the discussions of the Provincial States. By this
new decree speakers may use German or Danish,
as they may think proper. The minutes of the
sittings, documents, and bills will be drawn up in
both languages."

OMNIBUS FARES.—The proprietors of these convey-
ances have long had it in contemplation to adopt some
other mode of payment than the present. One plan now
proposed is to have a box affixed outside the door, and
into which box every pL-cenger will be requested to pre-
pay his fare before getting into or upon the omnibus.
Another plan is to have tickets, to be purchased of the
conductor or at the offices of the proprietor (available
for any omnibus belonging to such prop-:etors), with di-
rcc'ions printed on each t:cket, so that the holder may
know ne distance he may iide. If the latter I:,.an be
adop:;ed, it is proposed to issue Jai'y, weekly, and
monthly Cckets ; and, accorcEng to the number pur-
chawd, to give the purchase? e'i extra number.
THE GLASGOW ORGAN.—Messrs. Gray and Davison,
the celebrated organ-builders, have just constructed a
noble instrument for the City Hall, Glasgow. It con-
trins 55 stops and upwards of 3,000 pipes, and is statedto be, by many de3rees, the /most complete organ yet
erected in- Scotland.

BURIALS IN LONDON.—Her Majesty, by various
orders in Council, has directed that burials shall cease
in a large number of the vaults and burial grounds of the
metropolis. In some cases the order is to take effect
on Monday next ' • and in others there is an extension
of time for the burials to be continued, but by this
time next year, all those places which are enumerated in
the orders will be closed. We have reason to expect
that in a short time, under further orders, buria!s in
towns will be utterly abolished. It must be very grat%
lying to Mr. C-. A. Walker, t'ie well-known sanitary
reformer, to find that his labours in this cause have been
successful so far ; but we hope that his views will be
thoroughly adopted so as to give t'ae country towns the
benefit of the reform.—Bedford Times.
SINGULAR OCCURRENCE.—Three days ago two women
were talking together in a street at Dijon,_ when one
of them suddenly felt a rather severe blow on the
shoulder. A. child 15 months old had fallen from a
first floor window, and in coming on the woman's
shoulder probably saved its life.
THE MURDER AND ATTEMPTED SUICIDE IN GOOD-
MAN'S-YARD.—On inquiry at the London Hospital yes-
terday, we ascertained that the wretched man Mobbs, is
in a fair way of recovery, and that hopes are entertained
whatever may be his future fate, that he will not become
a victim to his attempt on his own life. The gates of
the hospital were literally thronged during the whole of
yesterday by persons who were inquiring after the state
of the murderer ; but, of course no one was al-'owed to
see him, and the morbidly curious in such maters were
fain to be content with the answer that he was not
dead, but somewhat better. Although it is perfectly
correct, as stated in the brief account of the occurrence
which appeared in this journal yesterday, that the
drunken ferocity and brutal habits of the man had lat-
terly gained for him amongst his illiterate neighbours
the soubriquet of the " Whitechapel Haynau, ' those
who knew him in early days speak of him as an amiable
and agreeable man. The nature of his business as a
wine cooper, however, exposed him to an amount of
temptation against which he was not proof, and he be-
came an inveterate and confirmed drunkard. This habit,
once acquired, was fed by a consuming sense of jealousy
which he entertained of his wife ; and, if report speaks
truly, his suspicions were not altogether without founda-
tion. However this may be, there is no doubt that it
was in a moment of drunken jealousy that he perpetrated
the fiendish crime with which he now stands charged.
The unfortunate victim of his atrocity appears to have
been rather a good-looking woman ; but she is frightfully
bruised, and her face is disfigure by two monstrous
black eyes. The man is of rather small stature, and
appears to be about 40 years of age.
EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF A LOVER.--Three days
ago a girl 21 years of age was thrown out of the window
of a room on the third floor of a house at Rouen by her
lover, who accused her of being unfaithful to him. The
girl ell into the court, but miraculously escaped with
only a slight bruise in her side, which did not prevent
her immediately ascending the staircase to her room.
The man was arrested and sent to prison.
