PAY OF THE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD

OF HEALTH.

A great deal has of late been said by one of our daily
contemporaries, re-petting the pay that the gentlemen
comprising the Central Board of Health receive for their
labours, and in particular respecting the sum given to Dr.
Daun, who, the same Paper confidently asserts, is in the
receipt of 201. per day for his professional attend-
ance. Upon the highest authority, we give the
moat unqualified contradiction to this unfounded
statement. There are six professional gentlemen,
exclusive of the Chairman, comprising the Board of Health,
who d. vote the whole of their time to discover persons
afflicted with the cholera, for the purpose of administering
to their relief, and the whole of their salaries amounts on'y
to about 160/. per month. Each gentlem in has his assistant
or inspector, and then, auxiliaries are allowsd is. 61.
per day, and 10s. a week for their lodgiags. The Chair-
man gives his attendauce gratuitously, as also does another
gentleman connected with the Board. An estimate to the
above effect has been drawn up by order of the Lords of
the Privy Council, and will be laid before the House of
Commons in a day or two.

Vessels from Dover continue to be admitted with passen-

are subject to a quarantine of five days, and it was fully
believed this morning that no alteration would take place
in these arrangements.
" Boulogne.—On the 15th instant, it was determined
that vessels from London (the Thames to Margate inclu-
sive) should not be admitted. That vessels from Rams-
gate to Portsmouth, inclusive, be admitted, subject to a
quarantine of five days. These arrangements to be in

It is stated in the .illorntng Chronicle that
the general impression at the Westminster Medical Society
was, that there has existed a new disease, termed Asiatic
cholera, in London lor the last week or ten days• We
learn, on the contrary, front good authority, that the
members of the society are all but on initnous in th it be-
lief that the present epidemic has existed in England from
time immemorial.

Colonel FAUNCE, late of the 4th Regiment,
is appointed to the Bristol Recruiting District, vacant by
the death of Colonel BRIRETON.

Sir BALDWIN LEIGHTON, son of the late
Gallant General of that name, has just formed an alliance
with a daughter of T. PARKER, Esq. of Sweeney Hail, in
Shropshire. The ceremony took place at Oswestry.

The Earl of DEVON (Viscount Courtenav)
has been for some time staying at a magnificent chateau,
which his Lordship has purchased, between Paris and
Fontainebleau, and where the Noble Earl lives in the tit.
must splendour. The E►rldom of Devon, to which, it
will be recollected, his Lordship succeeded in sstahlist►ing
his claim soon after the accession of the present Ministry,
will descend, on his Lordship's death, to Mr. WILLIAM
COURTENAY, Assistant Clerk of the Parliament, whose
eldest son, Mr. REGINALD COUItTENAY, has recently
uni,e,l himself to Lady ELIZABETH FuRTESCUIC, youngest
daughter of Earl FORTESCUE, and sister of Lord ERRING-
TON. E►rl FORTESCUE has purchased some of the extal-
sive estates of Lord Dp.vos in the West of England ; but
the latter Noh:etnan still possesses Powilertiam Castle, and
other domains of great annual value, in the S,,tith of De-
vonshire.

Sir WILLIAM KNIGHTON, we are assured,
has no int- ntion of reswoing practice as an accourlaur,
as some chartering worn,n have thought fit t 4 give out.
.ir WILLIAM hold. two valuable patent offices, ha,
amassed an immense fortune, and has (according to the
gossip of the CONY NO HA3I clique) chelishe,l long and
ard-nt hopes of a coronet. Titre is no prospect, however,
of the Knight's immediate elevation to the Peerage ; 169
name, we believe, is not even among tl.e 170 candidates
who have given in tenders to E tri GREY. —Morning
