THE CORPORATION' PROPOSAL FOR THE NEW
SMITHFIELD Mannist.---,During the last few days our readers
have undoubtedly noticed a small building in a course of
erection at the extreme western point of Cheapside. That
small spot- is' intended to enclose the model of the newly
proposed market for live cattle, as suggested by the " Mar-
kets Improvements Committee" connected with the Corpora-
tion of the city of London. The site upon which the build-
ing stands has been let to the members of the " Central
Markets Association" by the "City Lands Committee," for
the above purpose. In the course of a few days the "ex-
hibition of the model" will be opened gratuitously to the
public, and information respecting the same will be fur-
nished daily to those of the public who may choose to view
it. Parties unacquainted with the corporate proposal will,
consequently, have an opportunity of judging for them-
selves as to the value of the proposal on the part of the
Corporation, and as to the comparative merits of any other
site for a central market," as suggested by Royal Corn-
mission.

ACCIDENT TO LORD SUERBORNE.—A serious acci-
dent to Lord Sherborne occurred on Tuesday, which, it is
said, will have the effect of confining his Lordship to his bed
for many weeks. His Lordship, it appears, was out riding
over his estates with a party of ladies and gentlemen, mem-
bers of his family, when coming to a gate fenced with thorns,
being at the time in advance of his party, he attempted to
open it. The horse's nose being by this effort brought into
contact with the thorns, he sprang suddenly backwards and
threw his rider over his head, the fall occasioning a fracture
and dislocation of the hip. Surgical aid was procured as
speedily as possible, but on examination the injury sustained
was found to be of a very serious character.— Cheltenham
Looker-on.

GENERAL LYING-IN HOSPITAL.—A general meet-
ing of the subscribers and patrons of this charity took place
yesterday, at the hospital, York-road, Lambeth, Mr. Somers
Cocks, M.P., in the chair. It appeared from the report that
the number of persons admitted to the hospital during the
past year had been 201 married woman and 134 single, be-
sides which 4:5 patients had been attended at their own re-
sidences. The total number of in-patients for the last five
years had amounted to 1,409, and 2,244 out-patients, making
a total of 3,653. The receipts for the past year had amounted
to 1,615/., and the disbursements to 1,340/., leaving a balance
of 275/. The total apparent income for the ensuing year
1851, would be about 1,5121. The report having been
adopted, and the officers for the ensuing year elected, a
vote of thanks was given to the chairman, and the meeting
separated.

AsSASSMATION OF MR. JAMES JOSEPH FRYER, OF
Yomt.--We have received information of the melancholy
death of this young gentleman, under the following very
painful circumstances :—He had gone out to California, and
on the 30th of October last he was cruelly murdered, at a
place called Humboldt, having fallen pierced with 14 wounds
by the Indians. His companion, Mr. Sproxton (son of the
incumbent of Trindon, Durham) with his own hands dug a
grave and buried him. He then headed a party in pursuit
of the assassins, and poor Fryer's murder was avenged by the
death of 18 of his murderers. Mr. J. J. Fryer was the eldest
sou of the late Dlr. Fryer, 9f this city, proctor... York Herald.
