APPROPRIATE ANAGRAMS.—A correspondent has
sent us the following :—The words Cardinal Wiseman can be
rendered into--war, sin, and malice; and Cardinal N. Wise-
man into—can sin, war, lie, damn (of course in an ecclesias-
tical sense).

OMINOUS COINCIDENCE.—It seems not to have been
generally noticed that Dr. Wiseman's first Sunday in Eng-
land, inlais official capacity as Cardinal Archbishop of West-
minster, was the anniversary of the death of the bloody
Queen Mary, and of the accession of Elizabeth to the throne.
His departure from England, on the 20th of November, was
the anniversary of the burning of Richard Bayfield, in 1531,
because he had brought over and sold in England books, " to
the intent," to use his own words, " that the Gospel of Christ
might be set forward, and God the more glorified amongst
Christian people." Amongst the books, for selling which
Bayfield was burnt, was the New Testament in English.

DOVER.—The gales and high' tides during the
week have caused further inroads of the sea on the land and
walks at the lower end of Waterloo-crescent. It is really a
serious and expensive matter to have these beautiful
promenades swept away almost as soon as they are made.

hurgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member

This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
Artunately happens that the unhappy rictim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their invariable con-
aquences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap -dying to a qualified physi-
'an for relief. Shame and the dread so -requently, but erro-
leously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of
Id, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking 'or assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. LA 'WERT has taken the highest
nedical honours, az his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experi-
ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
iiseasen.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

It has been extensively reported that Captain Keith
Stewart would proceed to the New Zealand division
of the East India station, to relieve Captai❑ Erskine.
We believe, however, that the officer selected for this
service is Captain Sir J. Everard Home, Bart., C. 8.,
who commanded the North Star, 26, at New Zea-
land, during the hostilities with the natives. This
gallant officer, it is said, will commission the Calliope,
26, at Devonport, to proceed thither at once.

FRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
Price ls. I%d. per box.
This excellent Family Pill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for
correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, the common
symptoms of which are costiveness, flatulency, spasms, loss of appe-
tite, sick headache, giddiness, sense of fulness after meals, dizziness
of the eyes, drowsiness, and pains in the stomach and bowels,: indi-
gestion, producing a torpid state of the liver, and a consequent inac-
tivity of the bowels, causing a disorganisation of every function of
the frame, will, in this mast excellent preparation, by a little perse-
verance, be effectually removed. Two or three doses will convince
the afflicted of its salutary effects. The stomach will speedily regain
its strength ; a healthy action of the liver, bowels, and kidneys will
rapidly take place ; and instead of listlessness, heat, pain, and jaun-
diced appearance, strength, activity, and renewed health will be the
quick result of taking this medicine, according to the directions ac-
companying each box.
As a pleasant, safe,'easy apperient,. they unite the recommenda-
tion of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require
no restraint of diet or confinement during their use ; and for elderly
people they will be found to be the most comfortable medicine hi-
therto prepared.

SUDDEN DEATH ON BOARD A VESSEL.-011 Wed-
nesday morning much sensation was caused among the sea-
men in ordinary, by the information that during the night
Mr. Palmer, a boatswain, had suddenly died. It appears
that deceased, who had charge of the Lancaster frigate, in
harbour, lying off • Wilcove, took his watch on Tuesday
night apparently in good health, but his wife finding he did
not return to his berth at the time his watch terminated (one
o'clock), proceeded in search of her husband in company
with a atan, who soon discovered Mr. Palmer lying on the
quarter-deck quite dead. A signal was immediately made
to the fiag-ship in ordinary, but we understand it was nearly
two hours before any surgeon arrived. Mr. Palmer, who was
very highly respected, has left a wife and family to lament
their loss. Deceased was about fifty years of age.—Deeon-
port Weekly Journal.

THE RIOT AT BlRKENHEAD.—Birkenhead was
quiet as usual yesterday morning. The shops were opened,
and, with the exception of the presence of numerous soldiers
and policemen, there was little to tell of the violent scenes
of the previous day. The walls of the Town-hall are vio-
lently indented and broken by the bricks, 8:c. thrown
against them. The two policemen, Kelly and Gridley, who
were scarcely expected to live, passed a quiet night, and were
much better this morning.

CRIMINAL COURT—(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Continued from our Afternoon Edition.)
THE BURGLARY AT CHALK PARK.
Godwin, the police-constable of the S division, who
arrested the prisoner 'louse, who yesterday pleaded
guilty to a charge of burglary, and was transported for
life, appeared in court, and was warmly complimented
for the intrepidity and courage he had displayed in cap-
turing his prisoner.
Mr. Baron Au:minor told him that be had looked
through the depositions taken in the case, and certainly
it did seem to him that his conduct was worthy of the
highest praise. The prisoner, who appeared a desperate
young man, had made a violent attack on him, severely
stabbing him with a knife in the temple, and yet he had
succeeded, at great hazard to himself, in retaining pos-
session of his prisoner, and ultimately bringing him to
ustice. The Court therefore, having ascertained that
he bore an excellent character in the force, felt it to be
nothing more than an act of justice thus publicly to
compliment him. The country was much indebted to
him for what he had done, and to mark the sense of the
Court for his intrepidity he had directed a reward of 101.
to be paid to him.
POST-OFFICE ROBEERY.—John Edward Cunningham,
a young man, aged 30, described as a clerk, who was
yesterday convicted of stealing a Post-office letter con-
taining is., the property of the Postmaster-General, was
brought up this afternoon and sentenced to be trans-
ported. for ten years.
