Captain Campbell, of the 47th Regiment,
died on Monday, in consequence of serious injuries by a
fall from his horse, while bunting in the early part of the
day near Mullingar.—Athlone Paper.
At no time within the niPmory of the oldest
inhabitant have so many instances of sudden death, and
within so short a time, taken place here as the last ten or
twelve days have presented. Cholera (so called) which
snatched its victims from among the suburbs, at last
showed itself in the town, and several grievous cases have
attested its malignity. On Saturday night an industrious
sober person was seized, and Sunday saw him buried.
His disconsolate wife, grieving for her loss, amid a nume-
rous family, though in robust health, followed him the
same day! No remarkable cases have terminated fatally
towards the end of the week, and it is to be devoutfy
trusted that the violence has terminated. While this fearful
malady, however, has been doing its work, fever (typhus
and scarlet) has not spared age nor sex. As an instance.
we must not omit a most sorrowful visitation, which of
itself should be alarming. A child of Mr. D. Arnot, jun.,
smith, died about eight days ago ; and on Saturday and
Monday last his three remaining infants all fell before thy
malignant disease. The general sympathy for this unhappy
family, thus by one sudden stroke for ever dissolved, has
been intense, and the funeral of the three last excited a
gloomy interest. The burials of other children, who ha,,
also died of this trouble, seemed unheeded and common-
place, on Wednesday last.--Edinburgh Paper.

The LORD MAYOR—What ! separate her from
her husband ?

Kiimprsley—Oh, my Lord, her husband is in the
hospital.
'lnc LORD MAYOR—And so you'd console the
unfortunate man in the hospital by sending his wife
and child away from him ? What rapid marches
some of us make in humanity !—(A laugh.)
The Irishwoman—l don't want to go to Ireland,
my Lord. I know nobody there. I want to stay
with my husband.
The LORD MAYOR—To be sure you do, and yott
.hall stay with him. I never heard of a more cruel
proposition than that of separating these poor peo-
ple under such circumstances.
Kinnersley had a painful duty to perform, but he
was expected to go through with it. Nobody but
a parish officer had any idea of the gross impositions
practised.

leg could support his family without the assistance
of the parish. His Lordship then peremptorily or-
dered that the woman and her child should be re-
lieved until the husband recovered so far as to be
able to resume his labours.
Two sailors' wives. nampri. ...t ageTRS to
RlTRl;u.rpf_a.shir? in which their husbands were
monthly notes given to them at parting. The young
women said that their husbands went away from
them fully impressed that not the most distant ob-
jection would be made to the payment of the notes.
Upon applying, however, a plump refusal was given,
and they were advised then to represent the cir-
cumstances to the Chief Magistrate.
. _

The LORD MAYOR asked '‘vhen the husbands of
the complainants were expected home ? The young
women said that the ship had gone to New York,
and intended to go on a trading voyage, which
would probably detain them two or three years.
The LORD MAYOR having sent to the agents,
gentleman from their office attended, and his Lord-
ship requested to know why the wives of the sea-
men were treated as had been described.

The agent said that Mr. Hawkins, of Hull, who
was the owner of the ship, had instructed his agents
in London not to pay the monthly notes. They
were therefore obliged to refuse the young women,
because, if after having received such an order they
honoured the notes, they never would be reimbursed
by the owner.
The LORD MAYOR—This is most cruel treat-
ment. Able young men are induced by you to go
upon a long voyage, under the conviction that their
wives shall have support in their absence, and the
moment they get to sea you deny to their poor
wives what they had every right to expect.
The agent would at once write to the owner upon
the subject.
The LORD MAYOR—Very well. Let me know
the result.

BOW-STREET.
MASQUERADE FROLlCS.—Yesterday Messrs. John
Smith, William Johnstone, Michael Hanley, and
some other young gentlemen, of all ages and nations,
including a Frenchman, three Irishmen, and a
Scotchman, were placed at the bar before Sir F.
RoE, charged with "kicking up a row," at half-
past three yesterday morning, at the Lowther
Rooms, at which a masquerade was given the pre-

ceding night.
All the defendants, in a state approaching" happy
forgetfulness," went into the rooms named at the
above hour intending to frolic out the morning at
the masquerade; but some disagreement arising as
to the terms of admission, they (to use the language

of an eye-witness) " kicked up a shindy," the
Irishmen evidently imagining themselves at their
own dear Donnybrook. They were introduced to
some police cons►ables, who very properly provided
them with quarters for the remainder of the morn
ing ; and, gushed with the Tuscan grape and hardly
still quite sober, they were placed to answer for
their doings before the worthy Magistrate.
They did not deny the fact imputed, and, after a
gentle admonition, some were fitted for drunkenness,
and some discharged without mulct.

Mr. John Smirh wished to know if he was to
receive no compensation for the hours he had spent
in the watchhouse; but Sir FREDERICK telling him
he bad been treated " in the most legal manner,"
he did not persevere in this line of interrogatory,
but left the office with his companions.
