Mr. Otway Cave, while riding with a friend, had a
bad fall from his horse in Pall-mall on Thursday last, and has
ever since been confined to his house. Though not seriously
hurt, he is prevented by his medical adviser attending to any
kind of business. This unfortunate accident deprives Parlia-
ment of his services at the present moment, to the regret of
all good reformers, who know his eagerness to take a part in
the all-absorbing question of Church Reform. He will, it is
hoped, be able to attend the division, if it should be delayed
until Friday night.

HONESTY AND POVERTY,--A poor fellow, who
had only arrived from Liverpool a day or two since, found
in the streets a paper, which proved to be a cheque for 401.,
on a banker in Cornhill ; but wishing, from the impulse of an
honest heart, to restore it to the right owner, he made in-
quiries, by which the cheque got into the hands of the gen-
tleman who bad lost it, and the poor man was presented with
five sovereigns for his trouble; with which lie declared himself
hotter satisfied than he could have been had he got the cheque
cashed, and appropriated the whole to his own use. This
proves, at least, that honour and poverty are not totally un-
acquainted with each other.
