AIR. SMITH O'BRIEN.—The following appears in
Saunders's Newsletter :—" M. William Smith O'Brien
has not yet returned to Europe, but his arrival may be
shortly expected at Brussels, where his amiable lady and
interesting family will join him. Mrs. Smith O'Brien
arrived on Friday in Dublin from Cayermoyle."
ILLNESS OF THE CHIEF BARON.—The Cork ;Assizes
were brought to a termination on Thursday in conse-
quence of the sudden illness of the
.Chief Baron Pigot,
who had been suffering from cold for some days pre-
viously. The Cork Reporter of Saturday says :—" From
inquiries made to-day at the Chief Baron's lodgings, we
are happy to understand that his lordship is better, and
that he was permitted by his medical adviser, Dr. Town-
send, to sit i❑ the drawing-room the earlier part of this
day. His lordship's indisposition has been caused by
severe cold, which he contracted while presiding in the
county court, and not from an attack of diarrhoea, as has
been generally believed. We trust in the earlier part
of next week his health will be sufficiently restored to
enable him to undertake the fatigue of a journey to
Dublin."

and it said that David fixed a sling for Goliah, and Go-
liah got slewed with it."—American Paper.

is expected to come off in the City-hall, Glasgow, on the
4th of October. —Glasgow Constitutional.
REPRESENTATION OP THE MONTROSE . BURGHS.—A

LYCEUM THEATRE.—Last evening Mr. H. Russell

presentations of his popular entertainments, called the
Progress of the Emigrant, in which he introduces several

NEWCASTLE-ON-TINE AND THE WAR.—A public
