AIOST useful and convenient Preparation
for joining broken China, Glass, Earthenware,
Cabinet Work, and Fancy Articles of every description,
with extreme strength and neatness. Price Is. each
Bottle. It is remai liable for the facility of using it, no
mixing or preparation being required.

Sale a quantity of exquisite Lavender Water, in Bottles,
2s. each and upwards); by Barclay and Sons, Farring-
don-street ; and to be had of almost all Chemists, Medi-
cine Venders, and Stationers throughout the Kingdom.
N.B. The Public are requested carefully to observe the
signature " E. Davy," on the wrapper of each Bottle.—

a larger profit on an article of inferior composition, and
for most purposes useless.

It has been incorrectly stated that the pre-
sent Earl of TIIANET resides on the Continent. His
Lordship, until the dissolution of his predecessor in the fa-
mily honours, was representative for Appleby, and gave his
last vote in the House of Commons for the third reading of
the Reform Bill, of which the Earl is a resolute supporter.
His Lordship is about 55 years of age, and unmarried;
and it is worth mentioning, that the Earldom has devolved
successively on three brothers, none of whom has had any
issue ; so that this ancient title will, on the death of the
present Earl, become extinct. We have heard that the
late Earl was a Nobleman of most eccentric habits, and
permitted his seat at Hothfield—where Fox, BURKE,
SIIERIDAIi, and other distinguished men, were wont to
visit Sacville, the ninth Earl—to fall into a state of decay.
SUICIDE IN A POLICE-OFFlCE.—Yesterday
an inquest was held at the Hat and Tun, Saffron-hill, on
the body of a young man named HARRISON. He was a man
of respectab!e appearance, and had frequently been held to
bail for indecent assaults. At Hatton- Garden, on Wed.
nesday, in default of putting in bail on a similar charge,
he was locked up in a cell at the back of the office. In an
hour afterwards the gaoler went in, and found him sus-
pended by a handkerchief from an iron bar affixed to the
ceiling, to prevent any person breaking through. He was
quite dead, and the surgeon said he must have been so at
least half an hour. There were no papers on him to lead
to a discovery of bis friends. Verdict—Temporary Insanity.
Within a dozen years, not less than 10,000
houses have been built in and about Stepney-fields. Some
years since a builder, remarkable tor wealth, parsimony,
and meanness of appearance, was erecting a great number
of small houses ; and being examined before a Committee
of the House of Commons in regard to a projected water
company, he was asked " how many houses he had in the
neighbourhood ?" He replied, "he did not know !"
" Have you three or four ?" " More !" " Have you
twelve ?" " More !" " Have you twenty ?" " More !"
"6 Have you fifty?" " I'll tell you truly," replied the
builder. " I knew exactly how many I had when I came
out this morning; but I can't tell within fifty how many
I shall have when I return."—The Original._
LAMBETH PARISH—ELECTION OFVESTRY
CLEaK.—Yesterday this contest was brought to a close.
The numbers were—For Mr. WATMORE, 1,921 ; for Mr.
GRADY', 239. Majority for Mr. WATMORE, 1,682. The
result was received with deafening applause. The unsuc-
cessful candidate was called to make a speech, but he was
not to be found. Mr. WATMORE said he would return
thanks in the public Papers.

SUDDEN DEATH.—Yesterday morning Mr.
JAMES MAY, a iespectable tradesman, is Great North-
street, Marylebone, while talking to a customer, suddenly
raised his hand to his forehead, and exclaiming, 6, Oh,
Goy ! what is this?" fell down dead. He has left a
wido v and seven children.

On Sabbath week a most disgraceful scene oc-
curred in the church of Fordoun. Immediately after the
commencement of divine service, two fellows, farm ser-
vants in the neighbourhood, entered the church quite
drunk, one of whom slept and soured during the whole
day, to the great annoy ance of those near him ; he also fell
.
in the stair while coining and made such a noise as at-
tracted every body's attention. Immediately after the con-
gregation was dismissed, he was arrested by a justice of
peace, who was in church, and carried before the kirk
session, by whom he was reprimanded, and sentenced to
sit in sackcloth next Lord's day before the congregation.—
