A shocking accident happened on Saturday at
Dover. A waggon, with baggage and some wo-
men, belonging to the ist Regiment of Royal Horse
Dragoons, quartered here, coming down Bozley
Banks Hill, near Lydden, the drag chain broke,.
.which occasioned the waggon to, be overrun and
upset. One poor woman was killed on the spot, an-
other had her leg broke, and several others; both
men and women, were much bruised. One poor
woman had three small children with her rn the
waggon, but happily both mother and children
escaped unhurt.
Early on Sunday morning last, Mrs. Lingharn,
whose husband keeps the Turnpike-gate at Lea-
therhead, in Surrey, in a fir of despondency took, so
violent a dose of arsenic as to cause her death. `S't;c:
had for some time past been much depressed by me-.
lancholy, and about three o'clock in the morning
she awoke her husband, and presenting him her
infant son, about four months old, exclaimed,
From a dead woman !" and soon after expired.
The Coroner's Inquest have since sat upon the
body, and gave in their verdia Lunacy.
Mr. Cross's new Pantoinime of the Enchanted
Harp, at the Royal Circus, rises rapidly in the
Public estimation, and `brings crowded audiences',
being got up with judginent and in a superior stile
of elegance. The Plot is also highly interesting,
and the exertions of the Performers in general are
truly conspicuous. In the. vocal department Mrs.
Roffey and Mrs. Herbert are truly "pleasing : also
Messrs.. Burrows, Helme, Betts, Broadhurst, &c.—_
Montgomery's Clown is replete With humour, and
Mrs: Wybrow's Columbine is charming. The
dancing by the Miss Adams's is 'eXceeding graceful
and pleasing. The Spee-tacle of Rinaldo Rinaldini
is also attradive; Mr. Palmer, in Rinaldo, appears
truly charaaeristic, arid,'Miss Adams, in Aurelia,
perforMs with ease' and 'expression. Master Saun-
ders, in the equestrian department, continues to be
the unrivalled hero of the day.
THE RAT'S NEST.-7A singular circumstance oc.
curred to Mr. Reid,' an eminent horse-dealer of
Dundee, within these few daits : He had carefully
deposited in a press a parcel of bank notes; to the
amount of 801. for a' payment he had to make.
When the demand came, he went for his notes,. but
not one of them was to be seen, though they
had been there shortly before, and no person having
been in the room except one man, suspicion naturally
fell' upon him, and of course gave him no small
uneasiness ; his protestations were of no avail;
but on a minute examination of the cloSet; the
corner .of a bank note was perceived sticking
through a small hole ; this led to a farther inves-
tigation, when the whole of the notes, perfe6ily
entire, were found neatly piled up in the shape of a
rat's nest, so that the 'property was safely reco-
vered, much to the satisfa6tion of all concerned,
except the unfortunate rat, who would now be un.
• . der the necessity of recurring to the itrww.

• Verdia for the Plaintiffs.—Damages the amount
of „the Bill, dethiaing the Money paid into Court,
and the dividents under the estate of Reydout;
which made the sum 2961.

Dr. SoLomort's Cordial Balm of Gilead is now
in the highest repute ; it is resorted to by the No-
bility and Gentry in the United Kingdom, in Ner-
vous and Consumptive Complaints, nor has its merit
been lessened by the hand of Time, the test of all
things; every day adds more encomiums to the
virtues of this exalted Medicine than can be pub-
lished, yet those cases which from time to time
have appeared in the public. rints are so convincing,
well attested, and , extraordinary in their nature,
that that person must be void of belief indeed, who
does not attach credit to them; if, however, there
should be any who are interested in the truth, they
undoubtedly have an opportunity of enquiring of
the patients,
,themselves, who have received the
Cures, or the persons who have witnessed them,
where no doubt they will receive full satisfa&ion
of the veracity of each statement.
