A

__ inquest was held on Friday, in St. George's
Hospital, on the body of a man named Biggs, whose death was
occasioned by severe scalds, received from falling into a mash-
tub full of boiling liquid, in a brewery in Lisson-Grove, where
he bad been at work. He had needlessly got upon the top of
the tub to turn a cock. Deceased was a steady man, and was
perfectly sober at the time of the occurrence. Verdict—" Ac-
cidental death, with a deodend of is."

On Friday afternoon, about two o'clock, as the
Banbury and Buckinghamshire waggon was passing along
Holborn, heavily laden, when near Chancery-lane, the axletree
snapped in two, and caused it to turn over with a violent
crash. Fortunately no injury was done to the passengers, who
most narrowly escaped being crushed to death. The passage
down Chancery-lane was blocked up nearly an hour.
NAzARETII.—Every scene of our Saviour's life at
Nazareth is marked by chapels and churches; there is a well,
however, named after the Virgin, to the east of the city, which
we gazed at with extreme interest; it still supplies Nazareth
with water, and thither, without a doubt, came the Virgin Mo-
ther and her Saviour Son, day after day, to draw water, as
we saw the daughters of Nazareth coming while we stopped
our horses to drink of it.—Lord Lindsay's Letters on Egypt.
