SINGULAR ATTEMPT AT SUlClDE.—Thurs-
day, about tan o'clock, Mr. Sharp, one of the officers of
the Court of Requests in Osborne-street, Whitechapel,
after making a levy upon some goods at the house of a
tradesman near Cockhill, Ratcliff, was observed to run off
as fast as be possibly could, and kept at the top of his speed
until he reached Bell Wharf, from which be plunged into
the Thames. A sailor in a boat observing the occurrence
pushed to the spot, and fortunately caught hold of him as
he was about to sink a second time, and, with the assistance
of a police constable, removed him to the police station-
house. On recovering, he expressed much dissatisfaction
at being prevented carrying his object into effect, and be-
came so obstinate that it was found necessary to bind him
down upon a stretcher, and carry him on it to his house in
Isabella-place, Stepney. It is supposed the cause of the
rash act was some irregularity in the seizure, which would
render him liable to expensive legal proceedings.
DISCOVERY OF ANCIENT COINS.—On Sa-
turday, as some men were searching the river Thames for
coal, opposite the City Gas Company's works, Blackfriars,
after the tide had gone down, they discovered one or two
ancient coins, which attracted the attention of the coal-
porters in the neighbourhood, who have since, when the
tide would admit of it, been digging under the surface of
the shore, where, it seems, there was formerly a landing
place. They have found several gold and silver pieces of
the reign of Edward VI., and about 200 silver coins of the
reign of Queen Elizabeth, bearing date 1564 A large
parcel of pins, which are of gold, but of the same make as
the common pin, have also been discovered. The coins
are in very excellent preservation, and were found about
two feet below the surface of the soil. The pins, which
are very neatly manufactured, are probably of nearly the
same date as the coins with which they were found.

After the rapid popularity it has acquired, and
the uniform approval of the press, it is unnecessary to call
attention to the advertisement of " Mr. Wade's British
History." It now ranks among the most useful standard
works of the country, and is invaluable for reference on
questions of constitutional history, legislation, commerce,
currency, prices, statistics, internal improvement, and so-
cial changes. To professional and commercial mon, pub-
lic libraries, literary and scientific institutions; in short to
all who feel an interest in the rise, power, and development
of the British nation, it is indispensable.
BODY FOUND.—Yesterday morning, about nine
o'clock, as some watermen were cleaning their boats at the
bottom of the stairs, opposite Ginger's Hotel, Westrnin-
ster.bridge, they observed the body of a woman in the
water, close to the shore, where it had been apparently
left by the ebb tide. It was immediately brought on shore,
and conveyed to St. Margaret's Workhouse. It was the
body of a middle-aged female, who wore a coloured straw
bonnet, and a coloured cotton gown, with slippers and
white stockings. The body did not appear to have been
very long in the water•
