M AC A DAMIZING.—The whole of the Quadrant
to Piccadilly was yesterday enclosed, preparatory to taking up
the granite pavement lately laid down, and illacAdamizing the
street. A narrow way for carriages is still left on one side, but
owing to neglect in not attaching lanthoms to the railing, se-
veral accidents to horses and carriages occurred last night.
This was particularly the case opposite to the County Fire
Office, where the rails were broken down in two places by
horses tumbling over them.
EcortmENT.—Some time since a son of Apollo
disappeared from his quarters at Brightem, and was accom-
panied by Miss M-, a young lady of considerable ex-
pectations and great personal beauty and accomplishments.
rue elopement was not discovered for some thee, owing to
an impression made by certain documents left in " my lady's
chamber," that she had set off on a visit to a distant friend.
At the lapse of two or three days, however, a letter was
received at Brighton, bearing the Gretna Green post-mark,
from which it appeared that the " distant friend" was no
other than the good-natured blacksmith, whose kind of-
fices have been lauded by every Miss and Master from
John o'Groat's House to the Land's End. The knot was
Indissolubly tied, and the lady's family, in remembrance of that
hitter proverb_" what can't be cured must be endured," wrote
a letter of forgiveness, and the happy couple, on returning to
Brighton, received an establishment suitable to the lady's pre-
vious rank in life. It is but justice to add, that no man in the
musical profession was more deserving of so rich a prize ;
the best proof of which is, that he has won the entire esteem of
his new relatives, and the utmost unanimity has succeeded to
forced civilities since his character has unfolded itself to their
more anxious inspection.
We hear that u lovely actress, who has been
twice within an inch of being united to a wealthy commoner, is
at this time still spot from being so.

in
the neighbourhood of Bethnal-green , was seized
with a fit whilst at dinner
and
dropped from his
chair to all appearance dead. The wife and
children, who were naturally terrified
den a visitation, *
ran in every direction for sur-
gical assistance ; in less than ten minutes there
were three medical men in the house, who ex-
atnined the invalid, and found him labouring
under a violent paralytic affection. After trying
the ordinary means for restoring suspended ani-
mation, the poor man at length exhibited signs
of consciousness, but the power of speech was
altogether destroyed, neither has he since that
been able to articulate a single word. In other
respects he has suffered little or no ill conse-
quences from the effects of so sudden an attack.
Yesterday a complaint was made before the
gentlemen of the Watch Committee of the Eel-
born division, against Patrick Carmody, a watch-
man of that district, by an inhabitant of his beat,
for an unprovoked assault on a preceding night.
Two other watchmen, who were present on the
night in question, and in attendance as witnesses
for the defendant, ultimately refused to corrobo-
rate his defence, which was, that the complainant
was in liquor and abusive. The gentlemen of
the board *conceiving the watchman to have
grossly deviated from his duty, ordered him to be
discharged from his trust.
