A singular and revolting circumstance came to light
on Friday se'nnight. An aged female named Bradley, in
possession of a small far►u at Preston, in the parish of Elm-
stone, died upwards of three months ago, and the property,
agreeably to the husband's will, was to be equally divided
amongst three daughters and their successors. The son
of the deceased had, during the lifetime of his parents, re-
ceived his portion—and was, consequently, excluded from all
participation in the freehold property.. He, however, enter-
ained the erroneous opinion that he could keep possession in
his mother's name as long as she remained " above ground ;"
and for 102 days he kept the corpse in a coffin in the room in
which his parent died. Friday se'nnight Mr. Westfield,
Sheriff's officer, took possession of the house, and discovered
that the corpse had been removed the preceding evening. He,
however, with the assistance of Mr. J. Beal, constable of
Wingham, after a minute search, found it in a wheat-field
concealed amongst the corn. It was immediately removed to
the parish church, and on the foll Owing day was decently in-
terred.-.-Kent Paper.

The Bonzbay Gazete contains a proclamation by
the Viceroy of Goa. The editor states that the Viceroy is
nearly connected by blood with both the contending princes,
and he now spontaneously proclaims his adhesion to the cause
of Donna Maria, and of the constitutional charter of the mo-
narchy. On the occasion of the publication of the proclama-
tion, the troops at Goa, amounting to 5,000, burnt Don Miguel
in effigy, and they have supported the change with the greatest
enthusiasm. A brig of war has sailed from Goa with a small
force under Captain de Gama, who has received orders to as-
sume the Government of Demaun, the Governor of that settle-
ment being still in the interest of Don Miguel. He will, no
doubt, be compelled to surrender.—lndia Gazette.

In excavating for the reservoir of the water-works
on Cromwell's Fort, the workmen found this week the skele-
ton of a man and horse alongside each other. The human
skeleton, it would appear, was in complete armour when
buried there, from the mouldering fragments that were still
around it. The breast and lower part of the body was covered
with armour, somewhat resembling the ancient thorax, and a
plain silver ring found on one of the joints of the finger, with
the following letters rudely engravers—" NOT. VAL V.
BVT. VERT V." which probably means " not value but
virtue," and which we take to be the wearer's motto, in the old
English style.—Limerick Star.

TRuTll.—Truth alone may not constitute a good
man, but it is the most important ingredient in a great cha-
racter ; it exalts and extends its own qualities, it gives c"fi-
deuce to those who serve under him, security to those who
employ him; and, in the world at large, it inspires a solid and
permanent admiration, which maintains, and at last surpasses
and outlives, the enthusiasm excited by temporary success.,
