was born April 24th, 1798, being the son of the eleventh
Lord, who died in 1844, by the Hon. Maria Eardley,

Frederick Twistleton, his uncle, who is a canon residen-

the notes are known, and their payment stopped.
CAPTURE OF A DANGEROUS LuNAtlc.—The town
of Brentford was on Wednesday night thrown into a
state of great excitement and alarm, in consequence of
a desperate attempt at murder made by a man of the
name of Barney Fitzpatrick, an Irishman, formerly a
soldier. He has been more than once an inmate of the
Middlesex County Pauper Lunatic Asylum,
~at lianwell,
but on each occasion, after remaining th.ro ‘oinc tamc,
was discharged as convalescent,. On Wednesday night
Fitzpatrick, while uutler the effects of liquor, rushed
into the streets of New Brentford in a very excited
state, and created a great disturbance. Sergeant Gib-
son, T 27, knowing his dangerous character, endea-
voured to appease him and persuade him to go home
quietly, but without avail. Mr. Millard, the landlord
of the Catherine Wheel public-house, who knew him
well, then went up to him for the same purpose the ser-
geant had tried in vain, when Fitzpatrick immediate!)
rushed upon him and assaulted him very severely, the
whole time threatening his life ; and there is no doubt
that he would have carried out his threats to the fullest
extent, had not Sergeant Gibson ably assisted Mr. Mil-
lard in defending himself, but it was not until the assist-
ance of five policemen had been obtained that Fitzpatrick
was overpowered and conveyed to the station- house.
Yesterday he was taken before Mr. G. Baillie, the chair-
man of the Brentford magistrates, and Sir Alexander
Spearman, Bart., at the residence of the former, Han-
well-grove, when evidence proving the above facts was
gone into, and the bench were at first disposed to commit
him for trial for the attempt at murder, but it was
eventually considered that the best course would be to
send him again to the Hanwell Lunatic Asylum, when
he was immediately taken by the police.
SALMON FISRING.—The Scottish rivers have seldom
commenced the salmon season with less success than on
the present occasion. The Ness still continues to re-
ward the fishermen charily. A fish now and again re-
wards the haul, but there is nothing like plenty. The
snowy chill of the waters probably keeps the fish from
running. In the Conan the take has been more success-
ful. Since the season opened, we learn that tho average
daily take has been from ten to twelve fish. On Saturday
week twenty-one were caught, and on Tuesday thirty-
six.—lnverness Courier.
BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, MARCH 31.—Tbe
broker's offices have presented but little assortment this

mer rates. The arrivals consist of two vessels from the
Mauritius, one from Havanna'', and one Irons Calcutta, the
