The Rev. Mr. MEYLER, of ttle Bedwin,
has been appointed Surrogate for granting marriage licence*:
in the peculiar jurisdiction of the dean of Sarum.—Dorset
Chronicle.

When CREBILLON was composing his tra-
gedy of Cataline, a friend called on him, and was surprised
to see four large ravens sitting at his elbow. " Walk
gently, my good friend," said the poet, " walk gently, or you
will put my conspirators to flight." In his last illness,
CREBILLON expressed great regret that he should not live
to finish his play which he had in hand, having gone
through two acts of it only. The only physician who at-
tended him, begged that he would bequeath him the two
acts. CREBILLON turned to him, and with a smile, re-
peated a line from one of the acts—" Say shall the assassin
be the dead man's heir."
