the body of Henry Callow, aged seventeen years, who committed
suicide by hanging himself. It appeored by the evidence that de-
ceased resided with his parents ; he was of a reserved and sullen dis-
position, and was in the habit of attending executions. On Tuesday
evening he was found in the back kitchen of the house suspended be-
hind the door by a silk handkerchief; he was quite dead. He had
been reading to his sister an account of a man who had hung himself
in a police cell, and the father said he thought he had been trying a
similar experiment, not contemplating a fatal result. The jury, after
a lengthened deliberation, returned a verdict of Tempoary In-
sanity.
THE SINDE CONTINGENT.—The following is an ex-
tract from a letter dated Head-quarters, Camp near Tatta, Jan. 23:
" I 14 Kurrachee three days ago, at the same time with Sir Charles
Napier and his staff, on our route to Sukkur, where a force of about
12,000 men is assembling to take a share in the operations against the
Punjaub. I have no doubt we shall go to Moolton. Eight regiments
have been sent from Bombay, with a portion of artillery, to reinforce
Sir C. Napier. The following corps are now at Sukkur, or en route
from Lower Sinde to that station :
Two troops of Bengal Horse Artillery.
One troop of Bombay Horse Artillery,
Two companies of Bengal Foot Artillery.
Five companies of Bombay Foot Artillery.
6th and 7th Bengal Light Cavalry.
Sande Irregular Horse.
Her Majesty's 17th Foot.
Her Majesty's 86th Foot.
2d Bengal European Regiment.
4th, 15th, and 69th Bengal Native Infantry.
4th, 7th, 11th, 12th, 13th, and 18th RegimantS of
Bombay Native Infantry.
The Bundelcund Legion.
We shall be at Sukkur about the 4th of February, by which time
something will be decided as to the plan of operation in the Punjaub.
Sir Charles will not suffer himself to be taken by surprise. Moolton
was taken by storm by Runjeet Singh in 1818, who cut to pieces the
Affghan garrison of 3,000 men, with the exception of about 500, to
whom quarter was given. The booty on that occasion is said -to have -
amounted to 4,000,0001. sterling."
At Hammersmith Police court on Wednesday,l-four
grown up lads, casual paupers, were committed to prison for having
created a riot and disturbance at the workhouse. On their removal
from the bar they applied to have some food; but the workhoulc
officers having stated that food had already been given them, they
were told they could have no more till they got to the prison.
After their departure, the following effusion was found written by
one of them in pencil, on the wall of the cell in which they were
placed'—

" May the God above, send down his love.
With thorns as sharp as chisels,
Te cut the throats of all such rognes
As begrudge poor cagers wittels."
GOOD FORTUNE.—A man 'rimed Barber, a labourer
in the Portsmouth Dockyard, and formerly footman to the late Sir
Michael Seymour, was apprised a few days since that he is heir to
property amounting to half a million ! The man can scarcely believe
his good luck.
EARLY CLOSING MOVEMENT.—A public meeting of
the Metropolitan Drapers' Association took place on Thursday even-
ing at the Mechanics' Institution, Southampton-buildings, Holborn,
to Manse information respecting the injurious effects of the late-hour
system, and to take measures for its abolition. The theatre of the
establishment was crowded. Mr. Wyse, 31. P., took the chair. The
Chairman expressed his sympathy with them in carrying out what
he considered a most important object. A report was read and re-
ceived, and resolutions in accordance with the objects of the meeting
were adopted.
TRIAL or SPEED.—A letter from Calais states, that
the onyx and the Princess Alice, running between Dover
on the llth instant a trial of speed took place between the two
packets,
and that port. The Onyx creased the Straits in 1% ho whilst the
Princess Alice occupied one hour and 44 minutes, thusing beaten
by 14 minutes; this is equivalent to a superior speed of more than
two miles an hour. We ought to add, that if the Onyx had waited
at Dover for the tura of the tide, her passag ercial have been about
10 minutes shorter.
