SHOOTING A GRADUATE AT OXFORD.—Yesterday
Mr. Joseph Caudwell, of North Hinskey House, Oxford,
was brought up before the Vice-Chancellor of the Univer-
sity, charged with having fired a loaded carbine at Alexan-
der Hugh Ross, B.A , of Christchurch College, with intent
to injure him. It IA as stated on a former occasion that late
on Wednesday night, or early on Thursday morning last,
the wounded collegian, with a party of undergraduates,
took a stroll down St. Aldates, and when opposite the resi-
dence of Mr. Caudwell the freak came into their heads of
dislodging some of the small pieces of ordnance which
adorned the exterior. The gate was speedily opened, and the
work of disarrangement was about being commenced, when
the noise of the proceedings alarmed Mr. Caudwell, who
opened the window and fir= d a yeomanry carbine, which is
said to have been charged with No. 4 shot, at the party of
Yesterday much evidence was gone into, and Mr
Ross s
described as considerably improving. It was
intruders.Ns
stated that about an hour after the event some of the
collegians went to the house with a view of speaking to
Mr. Caudwell as to his conduct, and, being enraged, brake
one of the windows, when Mr. Caudwell again fired the piece,
which fortunately did not take effect. At the close of two
or three hours' inquiry the Vice-Chancellor adjourned the case
until Friday. The accused considers that the harm and in-
jury threatened him justified him in using the gun.
THE NUMBER OF DECIDED DRUNKARDS IN
ENGLAND.—Mr. Neison, at the Statistical Society, lately
gave an estimate of the number of drunkards in England
and Wales; from which it appeared that the number of
males was 53,583, and females 11,223, making a total of
64,806, which gives one drunkard to every 74 of the male
population, one to every 434 of the female, and one in 146 of
both sexes.

LUNATIC ASYLUM AT COLNEY HATCH.—The cere-
mony of opening the additional Middlesex Lunatic Asylum
at Colney Hatch, and consecrating the burial-ground of that
establishment, took place on Tuesday. At one o'clock P.M.
a large number of the Middlesex magistrates and their
friends assembled in the burial-ground of the Colney Hatch
Asylum, and the ceremony of consecration having been per-
formed by the Right Rev. the Bishop of London, the assem-
bled visitors proceeded to inspect the new building, which
has been constructed for the reception of 12,000 patients,
and which is consequently the largest establishment of the
hind in Europe. After inspecting the building the visitors
sat down to a cold collation, when the chair was taken by
Mr. B. Rotch; the company separa ed shortly after five.
DIVIDEND DAY AT THE BANK OF ENGLAND, &C.
—Notice was issued yesterday at the Bank that the July
dividends will be paid to the public on Wednesday next, the
9th inst., in the Rotunda. The transfer-books for the fol-
lowing annuities will be opened on the undermentioned
dates:—Consolidated Three per Cents., on Thursday, the
17th inst. ; Three per Cent. Annuities (1726), ditto; New
Five per Cent Annuities, ditto; Annuities for Terms off

PARISI:I OF ST. OLAVF, SOUTHWARK —Yesterday
the children of the St. Olave's Girls' Charity School, in
Southwark, bad the gratification, ]trough the liberality of
Mr. Ex-Sheriff Pilcher, who is one of the oldest parishioners,
to enjoy a visit to the Exhibition of the Arts and Industry
of all Nations. The children, 50 in number, were conveyed
to the Exhibition in two vans, accompanied by Mr Pilcher,
jun., and the members of the school committee and parish
officers, and their visit to this great national spectacle will
doubtless make a lasting impression on the minds of those
poor girls.
