duced him for a moment to quit his wife, who'
had shared in the difficult?e's and dangers of his
former travels, to whom he was in the highest de-
gree attach;,d, and who was fully deserving of
his esteem, affection, confidence, and admiration.
That wife, pleasing in person, amiable in dispo-
sition, gentle in manners, and really an ornament
to her sex, is not only involved in the hopeless
dejection arising from the loss of an excellent
husband, but in the disappointment and distress
resulting from the failure of an Exhibition that
well deserved the attention of the learned world,
and of mankind in general. Such a woman ought
to be the object of national protection, and we
sincerely hope that the learned, the wealthy, and
the benevolent, will interpose in her behalf, pro-
vide for her a comfortable competency, and keep
together a collection of such valuable reliques
of antiquity as ought to find a place among the
most curious repositories of the country.

DOVER, OCTOBER 13.—(Private Letter.)
The large four-masted timber ship Baron of Renfrew arrived
this morning off this Port, towed by two steam-vessels, and
having been provided with Pilots proceeded for the River. The
weather was fine and the wind favourable, which was the more
fortunate, as the ship is reported to be very leaky.

LeVrs from Port-au-Prince, dated August 30, announce
that the President Boyer had returned from the Cape to the
principal seat of Government. On his way to Port-au-Prince
he met, at some distance from that city, many individuals im-
plicated in the conspiracy, who, full of repentance, presented
themselves before him to implore his pardon, and to put their
lives in his hands. He directed them to continue their route to
Port-au-Prince. They did so ; that city has been assigned to
them as their prison.—(French Paper.)
The following is an extract from a letter dated
Caraccas, Aug. 27 :—" We are very busy here with the election
of President and Vice-President. The electors chosen by the
people to name are principally the Bolivar party. There is no
doubt that Bolivar and Santander will be re-elected. Captain
J. D. Cochrane, who was superintending the copper mine at
Avon, died, the 16th instant, at Valencia, a victim to intem-
perance."

It is said that the Brazilian frigate Piranga,
now lying at Portsmouth, is the private property
of Lord CochRANE, by whom it was originally
purchased for 1500 dollars, and fitted out by him
at Rio to go to Chili to claim some pay due from
the Republic, but receiving an offer from Greece,
he proceeded at once to England, levying on his
way contributions at Maranhatn and Bahia in
cotton, and giving bills upon the Brazilian Go-
vernmei►t, having been unable in any other way
to obtain what was due to him.

KINGSTON, ST. VINCENT'S, AUG. 20.—A most
severe shock of an earthquake, or rather two
distinct shocks, the second more violent than
the first, which it immediately followed, was ex-
perienced in town this morning about four
o'clock, and excited considerable alarm, but we
do not find that any damage has been done, al-
though most of the buildings were shaken with a
degree of violence exceeding that of any visita-
tion of the same kind for several years, and con-
tinued for a longer period.
This day a respectable looking man ordered
breakfast at a Tavern on the Surrey end of Wa-
terloo Bridge, and while it was preparing, threw
himself out of the window, and was killed on the
spot. A gold watch and 201. were found in his
pockets. He is said to have been a respectable
tradesman of Charing-cross, but under temporary
embarrassments.

DREADFUL DEATII.—On Wednesday evening
an ' inquisition was taken at the Queen Charlotte Tavern,
Church-street, Deptford, on the body of Mr. George Lewis, a
master lighterman, of Prince's-street, Lambeth, who met his
death by the following dreadful catastrophe :—Mr. Jas. West,
of Lewisham, stated, that on Monday afternoon last a bullock
was driven from Smithfield to the house of Mr. Gatty, a butcher
at Lewisham ; the animal seemed, when with the droVe, to be
perfectly harmless and quiet. It was separated from the others,
and placed in a yard fenced in belonging to Mr. Gatty, when
it became quite furious and unmanageable, owing to its being
placed by itself. After numerous attempts to free itself from
its place of confinement, it effected its escape over several gar-
den grounds, and gained the high road, and pursued its course
towards the metropolis, to the danger of the foot passengers_
two ladies, who were walking on the foot path, near New
Cross, were necessitated, to avoid the furious beast, to jump
into a ditch by the road side, by which stratagem they fortu-
nately escaped his notice. On its arrival at New Cross, the
bullock turned out of the road into the foot-path, and the de-
ceased, who was coming towards him, held up his arms, as if
to turn him back, when the beast ran at him, and struck him
on the breast with his pole, and just as he was falling, one of
his horns entered the left eye of the deceased, who fell to the
ground quite insensible, in which state he was carritd to the
work-house, and remained so till he died. The bullock con-
tinued his course for about 200 yards further, when it was turned
into a field amongst other beasts, by which means it was pre-
vented from doing any further mischief.—Mr. Hatfull, a sur-
geon, deposed that the deceased's left eye was out, the horn of
the beast having entered just above the eye-lid, and passed
through the orbit into the brain.—All the witnesses said that
there could be no blame attached to any one, and they con-
sidered the case purely accidental, The Jury returned a ver-
dict of " Accidental Death—Deotland five shillings on the bul-
lock."—The unfortunate deceased, who was nearly fifty years
of age, has left a family.
THE STOLEN CHILD.—In consequence of the
letter received by Weller (the unfortunate man who had his
child stolen from the arms of a girl in the Borough-road) from
Mr. Dodds, the landlord of the Woolpack Tavern, Chatham,
in which it stated that a woman had entered his house with an
infant, and which Mr. Dodds strongly suspected was the stolen
child, Weller, accompanied by an officer of the Union Hall
Police-Office, proceeded to Chatham ; but on their arrival, and
to the wretched father's inexpressible grief, it turned out not to
be the object of their search, and he returned home at a late
hour on Wednesday night to his broken-hearted wife, wlio was
anxiously awaiting his arrival ; but on her being informed of
her husband's ill success, she fainted away, and remains so
alarmingly ill, that it is supposed, if the child is not speedily
found, death will put an end to her sufferings.
GAME AT Cncss.—The match which has been
for some time pending between Leeds and Liver-
