t it is strange that no pub-
licity has been given to the affair by the authorities of
the Admiralty :—"Near Bellmullet, Aug. 15, 1853.
You will have heard, no doubt, that a poor woman
picked up a bottle close to this place, containing a letter
from Sir John Franklin, dated May last, stating that he
is prevented by the natives from leaving an island he is
now on ; the officer of the Coast Guard forwarded it to
the Admiralty, and has just heard that the writing is
that of Sir John, so there is yet a chance of his being
saved."—Liverpool Mail.
CAPTAIN J. R. SCOTT.—We understand that the good
fortune of Captain J. R. Scott, late of the 4th Dragoon
Guards, to which we have before adverted, continued in
a remarkable degree during meeting last week at Good-
wood, Captain Scott having won 13,0001. upon Adine
on the Goodwood Stakes, 3,000/. upon Marsyas on the
North and South of England Produce, and 3,0001. on
Cobnut in another sweepstakes.—United Service Gazette.
ANOTHER ROYAL RESIDENCE.—We understand that
his Royal Highness Prince Albert is negotiating for the
purchase or rental of a magnificent building, the pro-
perty of Mr. Child, the banker. It is situated on an
eminence between St. John's-wood and Highgate, sur-
rounded with luxuriant woodland, meadow, pasture, and
arable land, and commands extensive views of the beau-
tiful scenery in and around the metropolis. It is in-
tended, we believe, as an occasional residence or "nur-
sery" for the Royal children.
