TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlB,—Narvaez is an astute mixture of audacity
and hypocrisy, and utterly reckless of moral principle
and honour, save as pride and self-love may cause
him to wish to seem moral and honourable in the
world's eye ; he is all this, and worse, and well de-
serves your just condemnation, but it was Isturitz,
the ambassador, together with Mon, who were
Christina's Ministers, and aided her and the late
Louis Philippe in plotting the marriages; Narvaez
was ambassador at Paris at that moment, and, Sir,
Isturitz and Mon were the Ministers who created the
infamous Home Three per Cent. debt, in fraud of the
anterior foreign creditors. I think the English ducal
mansion in Park-lane, where this Isturitz is feted
and feasted, might consider, while paying her so much
honour, what is the amount of loss and ruin he bas
inflicted on their English and Scotch country women
and men.—l am, Sir, &c., _ _

A DAILY READER.

[Our correspondent will find, on turning to our
leading article of yesterday, that Narvaez is there
spoken of (not as a Minister but) as an " accomplice"
at the time of the Spanish marriages.—ED. Sun.]

ALLEGED MURDER or A lIUSBAN D.-A woman,
named Jane Brown, was yesterday brought before Mr. Jar-
dine, at the Southwark Police-court, charged with baying
murdered her 'husband. It appeared that, about six weeks
since, in the course of a violent altercation, she struck her
husband a blow or the forehead with a poker, from the effects
of which be died on Thursday. She was remanded.
CHARGE or AiUItDER.—A shoemaker, named
Thomas Johnson, was yesterday fully committed from the
Cierkenwell Police court, by Mr. Tyrwhitt, for the wilful
murder of his wife. The prisoner, it appeared, had, whilst
in a state of mad drunkenness, knocked down his wife, and
cut her head with a shoemaker's knife, dividing the temperal
artery.,

ROYAL ACADEMY.—The gentlemen whose names
are subjoined were admitted on January 11 as students in
architecture. The subject for competition was a college
theatre and lecture-rooms - J. Rowley, J. T. Irvine, F.. New-
son, J. James, C. Boyker, and C. Threukston.
APOTHECARIES' HALL.—The following gentlemen
passed their examination in the science and practice of medi-
cine, and received certificates to practise, on Thursday
last:—George Bacon, Sweeting, Dorsetshire; Jobn Crom-
well Blackford, Bromsgrove; Alfred Kitching, Hull; Ed-
ward George Wake, Huhl.
Ma. AGLIO, TII E ARTIST.—Some time since, when
completed,describin gthweenelr mentionedOu Olympic Theatre,that
r
. A Wo3i•oe.hily strweheto,mthteie nijus
de-
corations were executed, had suffered paralysis. From that
time to this he has not rec ivered ; his right side is wholly
useless, and he is unable to make those efforts on which his
subsistence depends. We found him the other clay h,bo-
riously striving to complete the third of a series of pictures
which he Las, painfully, executed with the left hand ! We
sincerely wish that these few lines may lead some who are
able to interest themselves in his behalf, and secure him a
retreat for the rest of his days.—Budder.
PHILLIPS'S PAT r.is T FIRE ANNIHILATOR.— Yester-
day a public demonstration of the efficacy of this invention
took place at the Gas Works, Vauxhall. A preliminary lec-
ture having been delivered by Mr. Phillips, he proceeded to
set fire to a model of a ship, then to a model of a house, and
lastly to a building, or house, made exclusively of wood, in
the interior of which were deposited shavings, covered with
pitch and tar, wood covered with turpentine, &c. To
describe the succes of these experiments would only be to
repeat that which we have on former occasions attempted
to do—namely, to declare the perfect success of each expe-
riment.

TEE CAPE MAILS.—PLY➢IOUTH, THUS DAY.—In
consequence of the severe weather which has prevailed
du, ing the week, the steamer Propontis, which was to have
sailed yesterday, is still in the harbour. The wind is blowing
very heavily from the south-west, and it is impossible for her
to leave till the weather moderates.

THE WEATHER.—The weather continues very mild
d dry for the season. Prospects of ice for the curlers begin
to get fainter as the days lengthen, but we hope that before
the season passes the roar of the stones will be heard. We
have seldom experienced so mild a winter, so tar as it has
gone. No snow, except a single shower, has as yet fallen.—
Inverness Courier.
THE BREVET.—We believe we may announce with
some certainty that a brevet will be issued on the 9th of
November next, the birthday of his Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales.—United Service Gazette.
ATTACK OH Mn. LEFFLER.—Testerday George
Stingle, a cabman, and Hannah Collins, a woman of the
town, were remanded from the Lambeth Police-court, charged
with having attacked Mr. Leffler, the vocalist, in the Ken-
nington-road on the preceding evening, and attempted to
rob him. Mr. Leffler closed with the male prisoner, threw
him, and on a constable coming up, gave both prisoners into
custody.
A DOUBLE BURGLARY.—A man named Frederick
Smith, was yesterday committed by Mr. Norton, charged
with having perpetrated two burglaries on the same night.
lie first broke into the house of Mr. Charles Francis, a prin-
ter, from which he stole several articles ; and then broke open
the house of Mr. John Walton, Britannia-terrace, Hatcham-
park, and was captured while endeavouring to effect his
escape.

QUESTIONS FOR DEBATING CLUBS.—CaII a man

while asleep in the day-time have the night-mare?
Charcoal, placed around rose-bushes and other
flowers, has the effect of adding greatly to the richness of
the flower.

RECEIPT FOR SOFT POMATUM..—Beat half a pound
of unsalted fresh lard in common water, then soak and beat
in two rose waters ; drain, and beat it with two spoonfuls of
brandy ; let it drain from this, and add burgamot or any
other essence that is liked.

PICKED UP AT SEA.—CALAIS, JAN. 16.—Her
Majesty's mail-packet Vivid, Smithett, en her passage from
Dover last night, has saved, after great exertions and in
spite of a heavy sea, a French lad—Louis Perrier, of St.
Louis, island of Oleron—who, since last Sunday, was ex-
posed in a small boat to the waves, without food or covering.
Ile was the only survivor of the crew of the French schooner
Josephine, Borihaud, of Bordeaux, from St. Valery for La
Rochelle, which, having sprung a leak, foundered at sea.
Captain Smithett ordered that the greatest care should be
taken of this young man, who is going on better than could
b expected from his previous state of exhaustion.--Shipping
Gazette.

INGNA.VE AND WEST HORNDON.—We are in-
formed that the Rev. Robert Abe,rcrornby Johnstone, rector
of Ingrave, having received notice from the bishop of the
diocese of his lordship's intention to issue a commission of
inquiry into the scandal and evil report arisieg out of the
recent proceedings before the magistrates at Brentwood, has
presented a petition to the bishop, praying that he may be
allowed to withdraw from the charge of the parishes of Ingrave
and \Vest Horndon. We understand that the bishop has
appointed a curate to reside in the rectoryhouse.-47aelmerrd
