ATTEMPT TO FATHER AN ILLEGITIMATE CHILD
oN A CLERGYMAN.—Mr. Wing the priipiietor of the
Surrey and Sussex Hotel, Great Surrey-street,
Blackfriars-road, attended to answer the complain,
of the pat%sh-officers of Byfleet, Surrey, for re-
fusing to maintain his illegitimate child.
Toe mother of the child, on being sworn, stated
that the defendant was the father, and that, up to
•he period of his marriage to the widow Blizird,
he assisted in the maintenance of the child, but had
since abandoned it, and she was therefore compelled
to have recourse to the parish.
The defendant, who was accompanied by his wife
(who appeared to be some years his senior), di,-
pnted the point of his being the father, and sun;
that a clergyman in the neighbourhood of Dorking
had been acquainted with the mother, and that
she had, some time since, written to him to inform
him of the fact.
The mo her of the child said, that the defendant
persuaded her to father it on the clergyman, a—
though he knew at the time that it was his own
offspring.
The MAGISTRATES said that they were convinced
the mother of the child had not perjured herself,
and accordingly adjudged the defendant to be the fa-
ther, and made an order upon him to pay ss. a-
,%eek for its support.
The defendant, as well as his wife, seemed to be
very much disconcerted at the issue of the exa-
mination.

HIGH-EARED RACE OF MEN.--M. Du-
REAL DE LAMALLE has mole out the strongest evidence
in proof of the existence of a distinct variety of the human
face, characterized by the positiim of their ,:ars. No,
"nIY) as they are represented in the Memnonium,
anti
other Egyptian statues and coins, were the old Egypto_
Caucasians retnatkable for their high ears, bat in more
t6an forty mummies which were unrolled and examined
by AI. de LAMALLE, at Turin, the auricular foramen,
which. drawing a horizontal line, is placed in us on a
1-vel with the inferior part of the nose, was in these ex-
amples found to he on a level with the middle of the eye.
The elevation, as measured, amounted to a to 1 inch and
half. The facial angle was at the sane time found equal
to that ot Europeans, but toe tempura region much !nor•
depressed than in our vane y. Nor does It appear that
the high eared race is extinct: there ate instances of i
am tog the people of Upper E.typ, at this day; and in-
deed there is in Paris at present a to wher of Arabic, a
Gyr of Upper Egyp-, w.to is piies,ed of this cuntottua
lion in a m ist decided degree.—Medical Gazette.

Coax.—The capabilities of Ireland appear cooslirt;"
cuous in the large arrivals of wheat into this I° f
since Tuesday. We have also to note a fair auPPIY
flour and oatmeal, but a moderate quantity only of lie,
and other grain thence, and very little of any aril joi
coastways. Since Tuesday the earn trade in all 01
brancLes has been dull, with a tendency to decline, o 0
today several parcels of Irish new wheats were force a 4,
at very low prices; towards the close of the market, rtb,
ever, there was rather more firmness on the part 01 of
holders at a reduction of 2d. to 3:1. per 701 b. fr°l3o4
rates of Tuesday. Flour and oatmeal were 6d. per :tr
cheaper, and difficult of sale. Prime Engiish malt c°bat
nued in moderate request, and maintained late prices
and
all other kinds remained unnoticed. In barley, Data 01y
