ATLANTIC MAIL STEAMSHIP COMPANY.—The
Atlantic Royal Mail steamship Columbia arrived at Liver-
pool yesterday, for the purpose of having the floats of her
paddles repaired, and to make good other damage sustained
(during the last voyage from St. John's, Newfoundlane, to
Galway) by coming into contact with an iceberg.
The literary world (says the Post) has occasion
to regret the loss of a liberal and discriminating patroness
in the death of Miss Richardson Cuner. For more than
fifty years she was engaged in the formation of a library at
Eshton, which at her death numbered some 27,000 volumes
among them many rare editions of the Holy Scriptures,
Magna Charta, the Hopkinson i
M.S., &c., and said to be
by far the best private collection n the kingdom. The
catalogue, of which a few copies were printed for private
circulation, is a work of intrinsic value.
TIIE CENSUS IN MARYLEBoNE.--Yesterday at a
meeting of the directors and guardians of the poor of St.
Marylebone, held in the board-room of the workhouse, Mr.
Charles Beevor in the chair, Dr. Bachhoffner made an in-
teresting statement of the census returns as regards this
parish, which he had obtained from the official sources. He
asserted that the total population was 161,609. The male
population amounted to 70,121, and the female to 91,488,
showing an excess of females of upwards of 21,000. Pre-
vious to the year 1841 no statistical return could be pro-
perly depended upon, but at that time the total popu-
lation of the parish was 135,119. It would seem a very
curious fact that the increase of population from 1841 to
1851 was upwards of 22,500, whilst the increase from 1851
to 1861 was slightly under 4,000 only ; but Dr. Bach •
hoffner partly accounted for this singularity by remarking
that during the former ten years there was not such a fixed
population in Marylebone as in the latter period. Then it
would be recollected that a very great portion of that now
densely populated
fipopeulldas.ted part of the parish, St. John's Wood,
was
He was of opinion; from the immense
mass of statistics that the publication of the blue book could
not be reasonably expected for the next three years, al-
though a summary of the census would probably be issued
;eat month.
