ELECTIONEERING MOVEMENTS.—It appears that We
are to have an electioneering canvas from Capt. Sutherland of
Udale, who threatens to contest with Mr. Loch for the represents.
Lion of the northern burghs at the next election. We are in-
formed that Mr. Matheson, of Achany, is prepared to offer himself
for the representation of Ross-shire, and that he will be opposed
ty Mr. Mackenzie, of Scatwell, it being generally believed that, in
the event of a dissolution, Mr. Mackenzie of Applecross, the pre-
sent Member, will not again stand for that county.—John o'Groat
Journal.

FATAL ACCIDENT AT THE RECENT REVISW.—Wed -
nesday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at St. George's Hospital, on
the body of George Giles, aged 43, a linkman, of Edward's.place,
St. Marylebone. Joseph Wood, a chimney.sweeper, said that on
Monday last the deceased was in Hyde-park, with a couple of
chairs and a board, which he converted into a stage for the accom-
modation of persons wishing to witness the review. In order to
ascertain if the platform was sufficiently strong, he stood upon it,
and then gave a sudden jump, when the whole fell to pieces, and
one of the side spars of a chair penetrated the body of deceased to
the extent of nine or ten inches. The spar having been pulled out
of the deceased's body, he was removed to the above institution.
Mr. R. J. Spittan, one of the house-surgeons, said that deceased,
when admitted, was severely injured in the rectum and other parts
of the body, which was quite sufficient to cause death, which event
took place on Tuesday last. Verdict, " Accidental death."
...

SINGULAR DEATH FROM A LEECH.—Wednesdayl
a man named James Vials, aged twenty.five years, died in Guy's
Hospital, under the following singularpircumstances :—Last Wed-
nesday week the deceased, who was a groom to a gentleman re.
siding at Dulwich, was engaged in dressing a horse, when the animal
severely kicked him on the right arm. Medical assistance was pro.
cured, and leeches were ordered, four of which were applied to the
wound. In a short time three only of them could be seen, but it
was supposed that the fourth had fallen off, and had got away. The
deceased was the following day conveyed to the hospital. The
wound and arm soon began to swell in a most unaccountable
manner, when Mr. Forster, the house.surgeon, observed there was
a slight discharge of matter oozing from the orifice. He deemed it
prudent, in consequence, to open the arm, when, to his great surprise,
he found the missing leech inclosed in the flesh, and quite
dead. The leech must have crawled into the orifice of a
very small wound in the arm, and it could not be seen.' After
the leech had been extracted from the arm, deceased went on
very well for a week, when symptoms of inflammation of the
veins ensued, which terminated with death. It is the opinion
of the medical attendant that he has died from the effects of the
wound having been poisoned by the long presence of the leech
within it,
