The POPE and Cardinals have been recently
amusing themselves by manufacturing Saints.
The Giornale di Roma, of the 29th ult., publishes
two decrees of the Sacred Congregation of Rites in
Latin. In the first it is said that the venerable servant
of GOD, PETER CLILVER, of the Company of JESUS, de-
serves canonization ; the second states that the theolo-
gical and cardinal virtues of the venerable servant of
GoD, GERMANA COUSIN, of Toulouse, have been proved,
and that consequently the congregation may pass to the
discussion of her four miracles. The same journal con-
tains a notification from Cardinal Avrizar, President
of Rome and of the Special Locust-Commission, an-
nouncing that in consequence of the increasing in-
vasion of :the :Locust-tribe, deputies have been ap-
pointed to proceed to the districts of the Roman
province corresponding to the different gates of the
capital, and there superintend the destruction of the
locusts. In case of negligence on the part of a
landholder, the deputies may send men ex officio to
do the work of extirpation on his property and at his
expense.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—On Wednesday a foreign
lady arrived at Dover from Calais, by the Princess Mary
steamer, and went to Dover Castle Hotel. She afterwards,
in the evening, Walked to the Marine-parade, and engaged
a pleasure boat, with a man to row her about in the bay,
and, after having induced him to pull a considerable dis-
tance from the share, she threw herself into the sea. The
matt in charge of the boat fortunately caught hold of her in
the water, and succeeded in keeping her in his grasp until
he obtained assistance from the shore, when she was got
into the boat and landed in the bay. She was ascertained
to be a Belgian subject. We understand the lady is suffer-
ing from great dejection of spirits, in consequence of the
death of her husband some months since. —Kent Herald.
