A man named John Smith, who was formerly`' in
the employ of a horse slaughterer, of King's-cross, recently
expired in St. Bartholomew's Hospital in a frightful stats'
About six months ago he was in the act of skinning a I'l'lr'
which had died from the glanders, and in doing so he slightl
pricked his finger. In a short time afterwards his arm began
to swell, and he went into St. George's Hospital, but so?
came out, as he imagined, perfectly recovered. He afterwarocst
became twice an inmate of the first-named institutiowhich
about six weeks before his death the disease came on, t
terminated fatally. What adds to the melancholy case is, that
the woman who attended upon him in the capacity of nurse %
now in a dying state, she having caught the disease.
LUNATIC INQUIRY.—A jury has been sitting
f
in Dublin for several days past, to inquire into the state 9,
mind of the Hon. Mrs. Spread, relict of the late Major Sprean
of Merricn-square. The jury returned their verdict last Thur3,i
day, finding that the Hon. Mrs. Spread was of unsound min
since the year W 37. By this verdict property of a very con-
siderable amount, left under a will made since 1837,
,;
re-
verts back to the Wingfield family. A few years since
Hon. Miss Wingfield, Mrs. Spread's sister, was declared .4
lunatic. The ladies, we believe, are grand-aunts to the present
Lord Powerscourt.
,
EXPENSIVE DINNERS.—At the conclusion -of
a ease at the York Assizes, three of the Jurymen, named The-
mes Harrison, John Calverly, and John Baines, left the ho''
unobserved, " to get their dinners " anst having " departed the
Court without leave," they were fined Si. each.
T E WADEBRIDGE AIURDERERS.—AM°IY,
the very numerous on dits which are in circulation, is one, ,f
the the truth of which we cannot vouch, ,
but, from the character 9
the men, it seems to be not at all impossible. Before their trial
the prisoners were kept separate. On Monday, they they
placed in the same cell, and it is said that the moment theY
entered, they began to fight, and continued to do so till they
were separated by the gaolers.— IFest Briton.
IRISH TYPE FOUNDRY.—Another of the.,
many signs of the growing prosperity of Ireland is to be found
in the fact, that the increase of literature, periodical and other-
wise, has been so great within the last few years, that the
wants of the printer have been so urgent, that he cannot weut'
as heretofore, for the supplies of type from London or Edinburg"'
DARING BURGLARIES IN YORKSHIRE'":,
On Friday morning George Atkinson, Thomas Atkinson, n's

Hidings of Yorkshire,' as daring thieves, and are said to ha' r
