HER MAJESTY'S HEALTH.—Her Majesty is progres-
sing so favourably, that Dr. Holland is expected to
leave for town to-morrow, and that there will be no
more bulletins published afterwards.

GALLERY OF ILLUSTRATION.—TheCountess de Neuilly,
accompanied by the Duchess of Orleans, the Count de
Paris, the Duke de Panthievre, the Duke de Chatres,
the Princess Francoire, the Countess d'Hautpoul, the
Countess Mollien, and attended by General Dumont,
M. Reynier, and M. l'Abbe de Gueille, honoured the
Diorama of the Ocean Mail, at the Gallery of Illustra-
tration, 14, Regent-street, yesterday, with their pre-
sence.

SIR C. BARRT.—The current rumour that Sir Charles
Barry met with a serious accident on Wednesday last is
without !Duch foundation. Sir Charles was thrown out
of a chaise, but, with the exception of a few slight
bruises, he has sustained no injury, and there is every
reason to believe that in a very few days he will have
entirely recovered from the effects of the accident.
THE NEW CRYSTAL PALACE.—This gigantic under-
taking is now so far advanced that it may be distinctly
seen among the hills and trees of Surrey, from the high-
est parts of Piccadilly, between Grafton and Berkeley-
streets, on a clear day, and presents a very noble and
commanding appearance, which will be increased as the
immense building more nearly approaches completion.
ACTS OF PARLIAMENT.—Forty public acts have been
passed during the present session, which began in No-
vember, and at Christmas adjourned to February.
About 100 more public acts are likely to be passed be-
fore the prorogation, towards the latter end of August.
FREE TRADE HALL IN MANCHESTER.—We understand
that 10,0001. was subscribed at a private meeting on
Tuesday last, towards rebuilding the Free Trade Hall.
It would appear that the Free Traders are not going to
forsake the assembling of themselves together.
THE CAB CASE AT BOW•STREET.—The friends of the
cabman, Phillip, who was committed to prison by Mr.
Henry, at Bow-street, in consequence of not being able
to deposit ss. to have the disputed distance measured,
have subscribed together to pay the 40s. penalty, and
the poor man has, in consequence, been liberated.
INCREASE OF PAUPERISM IN MARYLEBONE.—Yester-
day at the weekly meeting of the board of guardians of
Marylebone, Mr. Jacob Bell in the chair, Mr. Messer,
the relieving officer, in answer to a question from a
member of the board, as to how he accounted for an in•
crease of 742 persons on the parish books as compared
with the corresponding period last year, replied that he
was not ashamed of inquiry. His belief was that the
great cause of the increase of pauperism was, that people
lived too long in Marylebone.
ELOPEMENT.—A great deal of excitement prevailed in
Plymouth last week, in consequence of a report that a
Captain of the 35th Regiment had eloped with the wife
of a worthy baronet who has a seat near Ashburton,
and who had been staying at Plymouth for several
months before the sad event occurred. The officer
alluded to is the son of another officer, who is one of
the representatives of a neighbouring town ; and the
young man who has thus broken the peace of one family,
is said to have recently had a faux pas with the wife of
another gentleman resident in Plymouth, which led to
the breaking up of that family, and the wife being sent
home to her relations. In the case of the baronet's
wife, we bear that is likely to lead to a divorce. Yet
the officer to whom we allude is still received in

"society," he having very quickly, in both cases, re-
turned here from the scene of his amours, leaving the
ladieS to get through their difficulties in the best way
they could.—Kynurizth, Journal.
FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE DEAN-LANE COLLIERY,
BEDMINSTE R.—BRISTOL, JULY 22.—A shocking acci-
dent, by which one man was killed on the spot and
another severely hurt, occurred on Thursday afternoon
at the Dean-lane colliery, worked by the old company
at Bedminster. The accident occurred at about three
o'clock. On Thursday the work 'went on as usual until
about three o'clock in the afternoon, loads of coal vary-
ing from a ton to 25 cwt. being safely drawn up. At
this time the signal was given for a draft of men to be
h ruled up to the surface. The engine being set in mo-
tion the bucket rose steadily for about 20 fathoms, when
it suddenly broke, and with- its living burthen fell to the
bottom. 'William Tiley, one of the men in the bucket,
was killed upon the spot ; and the other. Joseph Mar-
shall, was found at the bottom of the pit in a hopeless
state with his back broken, besides having receiued
other injuries,
