SUICIDE IN THE LONDON DOCKS. —Yesterday
morning, about five o'clock, police-constable 303 K, while
on duty in Old Gravel-lane, Ratcliffe-highway, had his at-
tention attracted by a splash in one of the London Docks,
and on his looking over the bridge he observed a female
struggling in the water. He forthwith gave an alarm, and
the drags were immediately procured, and in about twenty
minutes atter the body was got out and taken to the White
Lion public-bouse, where the usual means were adopted to
resuscitate the body, but without avail, life being quite
extinct.

Lou Or TWO BOATS AND THEIR CREWS.—During
a gale of wind on the 29th ult., two boats belonging to Yell.
in the Orkneys, while crossing Otter Sound, by some unac-
countable cause were swamped, and all on board, viz., four
men and a boy, perished.

VENTILATION OF THE COURTS OF LAW.---The
Courts of Exchequer and Common Pleas at Westmirster are
about to be ventilated by the steam jet. The arrangements
are settled, and preparations are making by the office of
Woods and Forests, under the direction of Mr. G. Gurney,
Fresh air is to be brought in at a high level above the courts
and the vitiated air withdrawn by a separate jet from each
court. In winter they are to be warmed, and in summer
cooled, by a peculiar application of this principle. The ar-
rangements to be carried out under the superintendence of
Mr. William Clark, late of King's College.

EXTRAORDINARY VISITATION OF FLIES.—On Mon-
day last, for two or three hours in the afternoon, Liskeard
and its neighbourhood were visited by a prodigious multi-
tude of flies—the atmosphere swarmed, and the ground was
strewed with them, in vast numbers. They appeared to be
ant flies; a few without wings. How far they extended has
not been correctly ascertained—it is eight miles to the east,
and about sixteen to the west. During their continuance,
the sky was beclouded till towards the evening, when the
sun shone out, and they nearly all disappeared.--Devorport
