ROYAL FREE HOSPITAL, GRAY'S -
Benjamin Bond Cabbell, Esq., M.P., has signified his inten-
tion of presiding at the forthcoming anniversary dinner. The
cause of humanity could not be better advocated, for at the
present moment all the wards are crowded, with the excep-
tion of the Grosvenor ward, capable of accommodating up.
wards of 100 patients, but with the present pressure upon the
funds of the hospital, the committee of management do not
feel justified in throwing it open.
THE SOUTH-WESTERN RAILWAY.— 011 Saturday,
last above forty houses were disposed of by auction, in com-
pliance with instructions from the Directors of the South-
Western Railway Company, for the extension of the railway
from the terminus at the Nine Elms to the intended Water-
loo-bridge station, to be erected in the York and Waterloo-
bridge-roads. The houses were situated between the
Westminster-bridge-road, and the York-road, and adjoin the
site of the intended terminus. There are but very few
houses remaining to be sold for this most desirable extension,
there having been about 400 sold, the materials of which
realised between 6,000 and 7,0001.
THE LATE GENERAL FAST.—It having been re-
presented to the Lords of the Treasury that the subordinate
or day-pay officers of the Customs Department would not be
entitled to receive payment for the day recently set apart for
the observance of a general fast by royal proclamation with-
out a special order being issued by them on the subject, their
Lordships have, at the recommendation of the Commis.
sioners, considerately granted permission for the parties men•
tioned to be paid their diurnal amount of salary on this, as
has been the case on former occasions of a similar nature.
Slit WALTER SCOTT.—The remains of this re-
spected individual are still on board the Wellesley, which ship
is hourly expected in the river. Of course no interment at
Dry burgh has as yet taken place.

THE CONVICTS' MITE FOR THE RELIEF OF IRE•
LAND.—Tho convicts of the Warrior bulk at Woolwich
having observed the boxes exhibited in various parts of the
dockyard for receiving donations for the relief of the dis-
tressedinhabitants of Ireland and Scotland, expressed a desire
that they might be permitted to contribute their mites for
the satna purposes, and their wisheshaving been made knovan
to the at.thorities, the permission was granted, on the ex-
press urderstanding that the donation must be perfectly
voluntary on the part of every convict. The sum collected
in pence and halfpence amounted to 175., which has been for.
warded io the proper quarter by Mr. Masterman, superin-
tendent of the convicts at Woolwich Dockyard, to be paid to
the secret iry of the society for the relief of the poor inhabi-
tants of the sister country.
