Yesterday being what is generally termed a
Paper Day," the Court of King's' Bench was oc-
cupied in hearing law arguments, not interesting to
any others than the parties. His Lordship after-
wards proceeded to Guildhall, and sat a short time
at Nisi Pjus.

The following singular occurrence took place a
few days ago, at the Royal Navy Asylum, at
Greenwich :—A female child, five years of age, was
sent. anonymously to that Establishment, with an
intimation that .501. in Bank notes were sewed up
in the child's clothes, which were accordingly
found. The following account of the birth, pa-
rentage and education of the little foundling was
also given :—The father was described as a sea-
man on board a British man of war, and, however
unusual it appears, that his wife, from some cause
or other,. was permitted to go to sea with him.—
The Tar was killed in action, and the day after
his death his wife was delivered of *a female in-
fant under one of the guns, and almost immedi
ately expired. The child was taken .care of by th!
messmates of its deceased parents, and fed with
biscuit and water; all of them acting the part of
nurses; by turns, and carefully removing it from
hammock to hammock, when they were culled
upon duty. On the ship's arrival in the port, the
501. above-mentioned were colleded among the
ship's company, and the object of their bounty
transmitted to the Asylum. The child, which is
remarkably, healthy has been baptized Sally Trun-

nion.
