TO PARENTS AND GUARDIANS.
THE attention of all those Persons who feel an
interest in the Well-doing, of the Rising Generation is re-
quested to " TEGG'S PRESENT FOIL AN APPRENTICE," a
work well calculated to form his Character and promote his Success
in Life, and therefore a really valuable Present for Youth. The code
of morals and practical suggestions which it inculcates are the bona
fide lessons of Sixty Years' Experience ; and the Author is not only
prompted by his own deep-felt interest in this important object, but
is urged by the desire of a highly distinguished member of the Society
for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, to republish this work at the
low price of 4s. 6,1.
Orders may be given to any Bookseller, or to the Publisher, Thomas
Tegg, 73, Cheapside, London.

SINGULAR DEATH.

On Monday evening last Mr. Sewell, a gentleman
of independent property, residing at 20, Holles-street,
Dalston, visited Sadler's Wells Theatre, and entered
the wine-room attached to the theatre, where he drunk
freely of wine, and conducted himself in rather an
extraordinary manner. Eventually he left tha wine-
room, and proceeded to the ground at the back part
of the establishment, where he saw a cab waiting for
a fare. He called for the cabman, but receiving no
answer, he got upon the box and drove off to the
Clown public-house, in St. John-street-road, and
made inquiries for the driver of the vehicle, but lic•
could not be found anywhere, on which Mr. Sewell
again got on the box and drove back again to the
back of the theatre at a furious rate. On his arrival
at a short distance from the stage door, the
wheel of the cab came in contact with a
post, and he was precipitated from his seat, and
the cab was overturned and dashed to pieces.
The alarm excited considerable sensation, and a crowd
immediately came to his assistance, when he was sup-
' ported into the wine-room ; but he seemed to be, or
affected not to be, much hurt by the accident, and
remained there for some short time. The driver of
the cab at length made his appearance, and insisted
on giving Mr. Sewell into custody for causing da-
mage to his cab, and he was taken to Bagnigge-wells

STATE OF TRADE.
(From the Manchester Guardian of yesterday.)
The intelligence of the complete closing of the Elbe
by ice, which reached this town on Saturday, has put
a sudden stop to purchasers of yarn for Germany
and the accounts from India not beingconsidered favour
able, the yarn market has become exceedingly dull
though, as yet, without any material change in prices.
The market for manufactured goods is also inactive, for
which the season may sufficiently account. Yesterday
there were some rather extensive inquiries for 40-inch
shirting* at lower rates ; but, we believe, not much busi-
ness done.

ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, DEC. 9
The Flannel market has been, very similar to the two
preceding ones, and something like an average quantity
of business has been transacted at previous prices. There
has been much more inquiry after wool today ; and
some kinds, such as nails and long wool, have realised a
small advance in price.

ROBBERIES OF PLATE AT THE DUKE OF RICHMOND'S,
&c.—Tuesday Benjamin Ewen, a respectably-dressed
man, about fifty years of age, described on the police-
sheet as a servant, living at No. 6, Yeoman's-row,
Brompton, was brought up before Mr. T. Paynter, at
the Hammersmith Police-court, for final examination and
committed for trial, on a charge of having stolen a
massive silver teapot, the property of the Duke of Rich-
mond. Mr. Paynter said he could not accept bail in this
case. The prisoner was then charged with having stolen
a dozen of silver table forks from the residence of R. H.
Cox, Esq., of No. 8, Grosvenor-place and Hillingdon
llouse, near Uxbridge. The prisoner was eventually
fully committed for trial on this charge also.
DEATH OF LADY -ELIZABETH PARSONS.—We re-
gret to announce the death of this lady, which took
place on Monday morning, at 6, Adelaide-crescent,

lowing clay her infant died. She was then after at-
tacked with fever, from which she never recovered.
Lady Elizabeth was the eldest daughter of the late Earl
of Norbury, and was married to the lion. Laurence
Parsons, son of the Earl of Rosse, on the 7th of May,
1836, and has left four children.
The Duke of Cambridge visited her Royal High-
ness the Duchess of Gloucester, at Gloucester House.
