IA Coroner's Inquest was on Saturday held at
Brighton, on the body of the infant daughter of
Mir. HARRINGTON; the Lieutenant who has the
command of the signal station there, and, after the
most minute investigation of circumstances, a
verdict was returned of -"lceidental Death. The
facts are these :—The child, about four' years of
age, was on a visit at 2.„Neli, Steyne, in the care
of her female attendant, On Wednesdayse'nnight,
and was there, by the said attendant, put carefully
to bed, and not left until asleep, between S and 9
o'clock in the evening. Soon after 10 O'clock, the
infant %vas'picked up on the pavement, On the ex-
terior of the house, with its skull fractured, and
in the agonies of death ; front which time it sur-
vived about one hour. The deceased, it is now
supposed, on awaking, and finding herself in a
strange bed, had gOt out and wandered to the win-
dow, near which stood a chair and a table, and,.
in endeavouring to raise Lerself upon one or both
of these, had accidentally fallen against one of the
panes, through which she - passed, and produced
the fatal 'catastrophe described.
The River Tyne, which for so long a period has
been frozen both above and below the bridge,
gave way on Sunday to the genial thaw, which
commenced on. Friday ; and no damage has been
sustained-by the shipping in the river that we hear
of, notwithstanding the hinnense thickness of the
ice. It will be a memorable circumstance in the
local history of the country. That so large .arid
rapid a river should have been frozen to the
thickness of 20 inches ; and our Antiquarian So 7
ciety here have recorded the event on vellum, as
zOdocament for historians to refer to. The gam-
bols' exhibited last week, in every form on the ice,
would require a volume to describe them ; suffice
.it to say, that the young and the old; the gay and •
the voluptuous,' partook of every amusement and
gratification that their agility or their appetites
could supply them with.
The great quantify of snow which has fallen in
Dublin, appears by every account to have been
equalled in- England and, Wales, and for the most.
part throughoutlreland. ,Butin.takiag A South- -
etn direction, it is curious to remark, that it ex-
tended oily as far as Cork, in which city, we un-
derstand, it appears to have-closed its career with
-considerable severity ; while at Kinsale, only 12 •
mile§ farther South, there has been no snow ,
whatever,
