A CABINET MINISTER'S PENSION being vacant,
we (WO are very glad to learn that it has been conferred
on Mr. Walpole, who has now served the required time.

CITY ANECDOTE.—Baitman, secretary to a limited

liability undertaking not cousidored too safe, hating a
handsomely furnished office, it was remarked of him that
his Room was better than his Company.—Piencla.
THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF TRADE.

—Mr. Cave had a narrow escape yesterday morning. As
he was riding in St. James's-park towards the Horse
Guards, his horse, a spirited young animal, suddenly
reared and fell back upon him, and in struggling to get
up struck him twice, cutting his hat completely through,
and bruising his face severely. The right hon. gentle-
man, though much shaken and likely to be confined to his
room for some days, is not materially injured.

CONSECRATION OF ENLARGED CHURCHYARDS.-
Lord Bedesdale's Bill recites that it is held that any addi-
tion made to a church which has been consecrated becomes
also consecrated, as forming part of that which is conse-
crated, and that it is expedient that no legal impediment
should exist to the same principle being applied to land
added to a churchyard. The bill accordingly proposes to
enact that whenever any land shall be united to a conse-
crated churchyard, so as to become part of it within one
external enclosure to be used for burial purposes, and the
Bishop shall, by a memorandum deposited in the register-
office of the diocese, declare such such land to have be-
come consecrated, the said land shall be held to have thereby
become consecrated, in like manner as if it had always been
part of such churchyard.

THE LAST FENIAN ARREST—Stephen Massett—
Jeems Pipes, of Pipesville.—This literary celebrity writes
to inform his friends that he has had a narrow escape of
being arrested as a Fenian ! The adventurous Yankee
says—" I was giving my lecture in the neighbourhood of
Chester, and being a stranger I was suspected of Fenian
propensities, and watched accordingly as I went home to
supper. The Mayor had me closely questioned, but I
settled the business at once by showing the title-deeds of
my property at Pipesville, and telling the alarmed autho-
rities that I knew " Nimmo." Alt right, was the reply—
no mistake about it—didn't I shout out " Drifting along."
I calculate this won't injure my prospects when 1 open
my show in London.

GALLANT BERAVIOUR. A writer in the Times
says : —ln the midst of so noble a display of good
English charitable feeling as this wthinter has witnessed, lam
encouraged to call the attention of public to a case which
1 think calls for especial commiseratieo not only on account
of the seriousinjuries sustained, but becausel: theyAwere the
result of an act of great and generous bray
porter named John Preece, aged 32, at the leyv'el crossing
Ilrombridge, in Shropshire, saw a child running across the
line as a train was near approaching, and he instantly
rushed to its rescue and saved its life. The child was not
injured, but the bravo man was knocked down by the train,
and sustained such injuries that it was necessary at once
to amputate his left arm at the shoulder, his right hand at
the wrist, and his right foot at the ankle, and in this
mutilated and helpless state he is now in the Salop Infir-
mary in progress of recovery. lie has a wife and two little
ohildren, and subscriptions aro earnestly solicited for the
purpose of collecting a sum which will place him and hiS
family in a way to obtain a living by setting them up in
some way in business when he leaves the hospital.
About £l3O has been subscribed in Shrewsbury and
the neighbourhood, and it is calculated that with a

little more than £3OO a small annuity might be pur-
chased for him. It would be difficult to point out a
case mere deserving, and I am sure you will allow me
to make this appeal to the good feelings of my country-
men and countrywomen. It would, indeed, be hard if
this humble man, who, out of sympathy, performed a
generous deed which was so disastrous to himself, were
allowed to feel the want of that succour which he supplied
to another at the risk of his own life.

" The Tuscan Episcopate," says the Giornale di
Roma, " sustained two heavy losses last month by
the death of the Bishops of Borga, San Sepolero,
and Montalcino ; being Mgr. Joseph Singlan,
nominated by the Pope to the former in a con-
sistory held in 1849, and Mgr. Paolo Bertolozzi,
appointed to the latter in 1850."

Marshal Wratislaw has just died in his palace o
La Josephstadt, at Vienna, aged 81. He was a
Knight of the Golden Fleece and Chancellor of the
Order of Maria Theresa.

The Piethnontese Gazette learns from Florence
that Count Landgrand Dumonceau has left that
city for Brussels, but is ready to return if the new
Cabinet accepts the Scialoja contract.
One of the gentlemen connected with the Paris
Observatory states that an eclipse of the sun, the
most beautiful of the present century, will take
place on the 6th of March next. The moon will
cover nearly eight-tenths of the diameter of the
sun. At Paris the eclipse will begin at Bh. 23m. in
the morning, and finish at 11h. 3m. The instant
of the greatest obscurity will be 9h. 40m. The
quantity
of light and solar heat which we shall re-
ceive at that time will be less than that which will
then be enjoyed by the inhabitants of the planet
Mars.
