tioned colour only for shirts, shifts, drawers, or pocket-
handkerchiefs.

may, however, wear stuffs of green or red.

will receive them below the first cost.

who shall lose no time in conforming to these orders. Those

Between five and six o'clock yesterday morning,
Mrs. Mary Andrews, the wife of a respectable tradesman, re-
siding at No. 24, Alfred-street, Bedford-square, expired at
the University College Hospital, from ,the effect of having
swallowed an ounce of laudanum, with the intention of com-
mitting suicide. The unfortunate deceased took the poison
on Thursday last at her own home, and on her situation be-
ing discovered shejwas removed to the hospital, where every
possible assistance was afforded her, but the poison had sunk
so deeply into the system, that nothing could obviate its
deadly effect. The deceased was 23 years of age. The
cause of her destroying herself is said to be jealousy.
TILE DEVIL'S LAWS.—An Exeter paper recom-
mends us to pray; to this there can be no objection; but
while we pray, we should never lose sight of what is necessary
to be done on our parts; that is, to use every moans in our
power to provide against the evils with which we are threat-
ened ; if we have a bad crop, we ought to be able to draw
supplies from wherever they can be found ! While we pray,
we should not forget to do ; or at least, while we pray for the
interposition of Providence to preserve the fruits of the earth,
we should at the same time pray that the Ruler of all, will
soften the hearts of those who refuse to let us have cheap
bread !!—Devonshire Chronicle.
In the course of a Coroner's Inquest held in this
neighbourhood a few days ago, a singular case of progressive
polygamy in the deceased's family came out. The deceased's
father married her mother a few months only before the de-
ceased was born, and left her soon afterwards, having at that
time another wife living. Soon after the deceased was born,
her aunt took her and brcught her up, so that she scarcely
ever saw her father or mother. Her father presently married
a third wife, whilst the two first were yet in existence ; and he
eventually took unto himself even a fourth :life in the lifetime
of the other three, by all of whom he had one or more child-
ren ; and yet the polygamist was never prosecuted for any of
Ctese offences.—Stockport Advertiser.
