MISFORTUNES NEVER COME ALONE,--We see the
King of Hanover is announced, as well as the Emperor of
Russia, to visit England in the month of May. Perhaps it
is all fur the best that these two monarchs should make their
visits at the same time, as instances have been known of one
violent poison counteracting another.—Punch.
SUICIDE OF A RESPECTABLE FEMALE.—Yesterday
the vicinity of Turnham- green was the scene of some excite-
ment by the discovery that the landlady of the Crown Ta-
vern, opposite Gunnersbury-lane, in the above village, had
destroyed herself in the most determined manner. The de-
ceased (Mrs. Brown) had not been married to Mr. Brown
' more than six or seven weeks, and no cause can be assigned
for the committal of the rash act. About seven o'clock Mr.
Brown, who is the proprietor of a porcelain warehouse, near
the Minories, left the house at Turnham-green, for the pur-
pose of coming to town, the deceased accompanying him to
the door. They parted on the best terms, and she appeared
in her usual health and spirits. Shortly after his departure
the deceased went to her room, and staying longer than two
hours, some of the domestics went to see after her, and, on
going into the room, found her suspended to the bed-post.
Medical aid was procured, but life was extinct.
SUDDEN DEATHS.—Yesterday Mr. G. S; -Mull,
Deputy-Coroner for Middlesex, held no fewer than
three inquests, at the Whtatsheaf, High-street, Camden
Town, au tb bodiez of persons who tvad died.ju a•LutiA
