In the vicinity of Ulverston there resides an elderly
and eccentric bachelor, who keeps no fewer than about '7O cats,
which he feeds and attends with great regularity. In this har-
monious society, instead of that of a wife and children, his hap-
piness seems to consist ; and their delightful caterwauling, which
by others would be deemed rather unmusical, is by him esteemed
as a "concord of sweet sounds."--Curlisie Journal.

EDINBURGH, Feb. 7.---Last night at the Duin-
biedikes, a vast sensation was produced by a report that a wo-
man had hanged her husband. The woman, who is addicted to
drinking, had taken the opportunity .of her husband being asleep,
to put a noose round his neck, and suspend him from a hook in
in the ceiling of the room. His daughter-in-law came to the
place, and rescued him from the fate which was intended for him.
The man is a lath-splitter, of excellent character ; his age is 68,
and that of his wife 66. They have had a family of nine chil-
dren. The wretched woman is in custody.

Yates, the comic actor, could not, after all, -with-
stand the pressing solicitations of Lord Granville, to give his
Reminiscences in Paris, en Tuesday evening, to one of the most
distinguished audiences, in point of rank, that ever were assem-
bled in that gay capital. Nearly all the Ambassadors, several
Members of the Chambers of Peers and Deputies, besides most of
the respectable English residents, were present, and unequivo-

ob-
taining of passports was a difficulty too great to
spies in Austria reported that it would be very difficult to abide
the Police, as the young Prince read no public Journals, received
no letters, and was surrounded only by German servants. The
scheme, therefore, was abandoned last summer, when the vigi-
lance of the Austrian Government increased, as the Prince's sen-
timents on the affairs of his native country had been ascertained.
The Emperor of Austria, indeed, acts in the interests of his bro-
ther, Don Pedro, being well aware, that from the influence the
Queen Dowager has over the mind of Miguel, as well as his im-
petuosity of temper, nothing short of a civil war would be the re-
sult 'of his escape to Portugal. A plan was laid to send him over
to Brazil, and a vessel of war has for this purpose been ordered to
Leghorn, to take him on board; but even if it arrives, Miguel
will not be trusted on the sea, as by promises and seduction he
might easily gain over the crew and officers, and land in Portugal.
The privacy with which he has been kept seems to have given a
stimulus to his mind ; and-he -looks, although he does not utter,
what he would do, if he could only extricate himself. I am'con-
fident ha will never be trusted on the high seas, unless in a British
man* of war, and against this there is an objection. * Till he is
more matured and better schooled, I am therefore very confident
he will not see the sight of salt water, or be allowed to eat fresh
grapes on the banks of the Douro. His name, however, in Por-
tugal,-has not been such a talisman as was expected, and another
plan has been concerted. The scheme henceforward will _be to
root out the Constitution, without interfering with the rights of
Don Pedro. _Morning Paper. •
SHOCKING SUICIDE.—Just before ten o'clock on
Saturday evening, the following melancholy occurrence took
place at the Smithfield Coffee-house, in Smithfield Bars. Mr.
Pickman, the respectable proprietor, having been from home
for the previous two or three hours, enjoying the company of
a friend, entered into some dispute with an old acquaintance

declared he would as soon stab himself as be argued out of his
on their correctness. Mr. Pickman at. length became
senses, and at the same instant plunged the knife into his side,
and fell to the ground. ' Several of his horror-stricken family
were witnesses of this dreadful catastrophe, and he was removed
to his chamber weltering in his'blood, and surgical assistance pro-
cured, but without avail, as-he died within an hour after the rash
occurrence took place. The knife had penetrated nearly three
inches, and inflicted a severe wound in the liver. The body
awaits the result of a Coroner's inquest.
