SIR ROBERT PEEL.—Mr. Miall, in his " Parliamentary
Notes," thus remarks on the appearance of Sir Robert
Peel as an opponent of the Jewish Disabilities Bill :
Fashionably dressed—we might almost say rakishly—
handsome and well moustashed, with a good voice, a
self-possession, derived from the consciousness of his
father's fame, and an earnest elocution, he said many
things worth hearing—but •ne could not but feel how
odd it was that the religion of the country should be
committed to such an advocate.
DEATH FROM STARVATION. —On the morning of Fri-
day last, a poor woman, in the last stage of destitution,
nearly naked, and without shoes and stockings, was found
in the stable belonging to an unoccupied house on Fea-
therstone-common, near the railway station. She had
slept on some loose straw, and had nothing but a stone
for her pillow. She said her name was Tinker, and it
has since transpired that she has until recently been in
tolerable circumstances. The poor creature was almost
starved, and only lived about three hours after being
found. A coroner's inquest has since been held on view
of the body, and a verdict given in accordance with the
evidence.—Doncaster Gazette.
SKILFUL DRIVING BY A LADY.—Last week Miss
Needham, of Rotherham was driving on the Wickersley-
road, near the Broom toll bar, accompanied by a little
boy, four years old, when her horse took fright and gal-
loped to Rotherham at full speed, never stopping till he
reached the top of Bridge-gate. Throughout his mad
career, supposed to have been at the rate of thirty miles
an hour, Miss Needham maintained her self-possession,
and managed to guide him so as to avoid all the vehicles
and other obstructions of the road, furnishing a remark-
able instance of female courage and dexterity.—Sheffield
Independent. _

DEATH OF MR. H. STEBBING.—We regret to an-
nounce the death of Mr. Henry Stebbing, the celebrated
trainer, of Hanabledon, which took place on Sunday
last, 20th instant, only nine days after that of his wife.
Mr. Stebbing, who suffered, we believe, from disease of
the heart and liver, has left an only daughter, about ten
years of age. His loss will be severely felt by the gen-
tlemen for whom he trained, who have not yet, we un-
derstand, completed their arrangements for the future.
The deceased and his wife were much respected in the
neighbourhood of Hambledon, especially by the poor.
Mr. Stebbing, in addition to the training, kept a large
establishment, and was the proprietor of Flatcatcher,
and a great number of brood mares. By his death
the following nominations are void :---1853: Pickatree

Oaks ; Prince George, Gammon, Ptolemy, and colto by

Holloway's Pills.—An astounding cure by this miracu-
lous medicine after every other means had failed.—See
extract from his lordship's letter, dated " Villa Messina,
Leghorn, Feb. 21, 1845. To Professor Holloway. Sir—
I beg to acquaint you that your pills have effected a cure
of a disorder in my liver and stomach which all the most
eminent of the faculty at home and all over the continent
had not been able to effect—nay, not even the waters of
Carlsbad or Marienbad. (Signed) ALDBOROUGH."—
