TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—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 toted
and feasted, might consider, while paying her so much
honour, what is the amount of loss and ruin he has
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.—En. Sun.]

ALLEGED AIUEDEU OF A HIISBAND.—A woman,
named Jane Brown, was yesterday brought before Mr. Jar-
dine, at the Southwark Police-court, charged with having
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 he died on Thur,day. She was remanded.

CHARGE OF MURDER.—A shoemaker, named
Thomas Johnson, was yesterday fully committed from the
Clerkenwell 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 tempera'
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, E. New-
son, J. James, C. Boyket, and C. Threakston.
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 ; John Crom-
well Blackford, Bromsgrove ; Alfred Kitching, Hull; Ed.
ward George Wake, Hull.
Ma. AGLIO, THE ARTIST.—Some time since, when
describing the new Olympic Theatre, Wych• street, then just
completed, we mentioned that Mr. Aglio. by whom the de-
corations were executed, had suffered paralysis. From that
time to this he has not recovered; his right side is wholly
useless, and he is unable to make those efforts on which his
subsistence depends. We found him the other day labo-
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.—Builder.
PHILLIPS'S PATENT 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
todo— namely, to declare the perfect success of each expe-
riment.

THE CAPE MAILS.—PLYMOUTH, THURSDAY.—Ita
consequence of the severe weather which has prevailed
Outing 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
at.d dry for the season. Prospects of ice tor 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 far as it bas
gone. No snow, except a single shower, has as yet fallen.—

QUESTIONS FOR DEBATING CLUBS.—Can a man
while asleep in the day-tine 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 an,
other essence that is liked.
