USE OF THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.—The other
day a pheasant, which had perched upon the wires of the
Lincoln and Nottingham Railway, was killed by elec-
tricity. The railway people were conveying a message
along the line, which was doubtless the cause of its
death. The telegraph was employed the other day to
stop a clandestine marriage. A young lady and gentle-
man decamped together by rail from Nottingham to
hare the indissoluble knot tied at Lincoln ; but about
an hour after the loving pair had set off, the lady's
mamma, finding her daughter absent, went to the rail-
way station, and ascertained that she had left for Lia-
coin with her lover. The telegraph was instantly set to
work, and when the lady and gentleman arrived, a po-
liceman was in attendance to receive them, and the pair
were forthwith taken out of their carriage, placed in a
return train, and sent back to the mamma, who had un-
fortunately found her daughter " was out."—Lincolit
Mercury.

MONEY-RETURNING TELEGRAPH. Wednesday
morning a lady inadvertently left her purse, containing
301., on the counter at the Witham station of the Eastern
Counties Railway. It remained unobserved by the sta-
tion-clerk, until both the train and her ladyship left s
whereupon he instantly " telegraphed" the occurrence
to the authorities at the Chelmsford station, who, on
train's arrival, made inquiry of all the lady

day Mr. Mills held an inquest at the Earl of Cathcart,
Munster-street, Regent's Park, on the body of Mr.
George Goodall, aged 44, a mine and sharebroker, of
42, Clarence-gardens. Elizabeth, relict of deceased,
said that on Friday morning he appeared much de-
pressed in spirits, and asked her to go into the City to
transact some business for him. She went, and on re-
turning about seven in the evening, found that he had
gone out to a neighbouring tavern. She sent for hint,
and he came, evidently affected by liquor, which was
not an unusual occurrence. A short time afterwards he
went to bed, and was soon seized with what she thought
a fit. A medical man was promptly in attendance, and
treated deceased fur what he considered a naturally
sudden attack, but without success, as death almost in-
stantaneously ensued. Deceased had frequently alluded
to self-destruction, both in the presence of witness and
her daughter. lie was in the habit of taking opium?
and a short time since took four times his usual gnaw.
tity, which, though it did not destroy life, had pro.
duced the most prostrating effects. There appeared to
be nothing in his pecuniary affairs to affect his ratthd,
but it was proved that his father had been the inmate, of
a lunatic asylum. Dr. Jenner, who had opened the
body, found Prussic acid in the stomach, and said that
death was caused by that poison. Verdict " Tempo, rery
insanity."

Dr. Cabusse, one of the prisoners of Abd-el-Ki Kier,
has been created by tho King a Knight of the Legi on of
Honour, as a reward due to his devoted AtteLltiOA W his
ellow-prisoners.—Galignani.
