HARBOURS OF REFUGE ON TUE COAST.---It has
been suggested to Lloyd's, that if the Spatway, or passage
between the Buxey and Gunfleet Sands, was better known,
and such measures as are necessary fora that purpose taken,
such as the laying down buoys, Sic., nd a leading mark
through and into the River Cole, the shipping interest would
be greatly benefited, as, although that harbour iS but little
known by the seamen generally, it is capable of holding 500 sail.
The Gazette des Tribunaux publishes the following
account of a trial which took place a short time ago at
Christiania, in Norway :—" In the night of the 23d De-
cember last, a peasant named Sydfjord applied for
shelter, during a storm, ;toy. Moerstroem, the clergy-
man of the village of Tolile9.; This: was immediately
granted, and a bediooter :was 'assigned to the guest.
As soon as M. Moerstroem and his wife were sup-
posed to be asleep,,Sydfjard , entered their bedroom,
and inflicted on each a wound id' the, throat with a
knife. The dergyman•-died almost irrmiediately ; but
his wife, notwithstanding her .viottneV, withable to rise
and escape Icy' the windovfo, and fake, refuge in the
house Of a neghbour, whilst the murderer was in an
adjoininoC.Sorn, where lie killed. Al:ie.:adopted son of
M. Moerstfoeni. The magiitrate of :the village, on
being apprised of this calamity, proceeded with several
persons to the parsonage-house, where they.found the
murderer, who was ignorant of the escape of one of his
victims, tranquilly packing up all the portable property.
He was arrested but, notwithstanding the positive
evidence against him, persisted in declaring that he was
innocent, until ten days afterwards, when, being placed
in presence of Madame Moerstroem, who was then
dying, he burst into tears, and confessed his crime. He
was brought to trial, found guilty, and sentenced to be
beheaded, and the crime having been aggravated by a
violation of hospitality, it was ordered that after death
the body should be burned, and the ashes distributed by
the winds."
STORM IN EDlNBURGM.—Yesterday afternoon, a
large portion of the wall between the Queen's Park and the
Dumbiedikes was blown down by the high wind which pre-
