LADY ANNE GRANARD.-The public will learn
with great delight that anew work is immediately forthcoming
by a writer—now, alas ! no more—from whom pen thousands
have derived the greatest interest and amusement, we mean,
the late 3liss Landon. " Lady Anne Granard, or, Keeping
up Appearances," is the name of the expected fiction, and,
from the title, it may be presumed to be a tale of modern life ;
a subject which the recently published " Correspondence and
Litaiary Remains" of the lamented author, shows to have been
more adapted for her versatile powers, than the, vein of h gh
romance which runs through all her other productions would
have led us to imagine. As the last work of so popular and
esteemed a writer as L. E. L. " Lady Anne. Granard' must be
looked for VI ith no slight degree of expectation and curiosity.
FALLACIES OF THE FACULTY.—We are not asto-
nished at the great popularity of this volume, agreeing, as we
do, with the IF estminster Review, "that it almost as enter-
taining as a novel." Such a clever at' ack upon received me-
dical opinion could not pass without rousing the mirth of one
class, and the bile of another ; and, to quote Tait, " it has
at la't been fairly praised and abused into fame." The new
doctrine that all diseases may be cured solely by attention to
temperature—in a word, with cold or hot water, and without
any doctor at all—is not very flattering to the apothecaries;
but if we may believe the Revue de Versailles, it is rapidly
making its way to the Continent—witness the following pas-
sage from that periodical II eat inutile de dire le bruit que
cause en France cette doctrine. Le Docteur Dickson fixe
d'autant plus d'attention jeune et plein d'energie ne re-
court nullement au periphrase Tour experimen ce qu'il pence.
Pour lui un chat est, un chat, et les medecins sonts des roués."
The " Fallacies of the Faculty" have just appeared in a
French dress at Paris, and Messrs. Simpkin and Ma-shall, the
London publishers of the work, will shortly be prepared to
suiSp'y the trade and the public with the foreign edition.
FOUR PERSONS DROWNED.---KIR KC UDDR
27,—A very melancholy accident occurred here to-day. Five
young men went, out to take a sail in a small boat, and were on
their return down the river, when a squall upset the boat, and
four of the men were drowned. Their names are—Stewart
Watsor, who has left a wife and two children • Hugh More-
land and Thomas M‘Keachie, single men. The bodies of the
above three have been got; the other, Hugh M'Adam, has not
yet been found. Too much praise cannot be given to the men
belonging to the port, for their exertions in trying to save the
unfortunate sufferers, and afterwards in endeavouring to find
the bodies.—Shipping Gazette.
CURIOUS ANTIQUARIAN DISCOVERY.—11l making
excavations at the Hotel de Ville, at Mons, recently, a leaden
coffin has been discovered, containing the body of a female,
well preserved, and the robes, in black silk, almost intact. '1 he
head, placed by the side of the body, showed that the individual
had been executed. It proves to be the body of the Countess
Inez de Mendoza, who was privately executed in the court of
the Hotel de Ville, on the 9th of June, 1618, as an accomplice
in the conspiracy of the Marquis de Henriqui.z. A ring on
one of the fingers bore the arms of the Mendoza family. The
coffin was transferred to the museum of the town.

In pursuance of these feelings, there are the greatest efforts
to turn Boz's presence to the best account, to make the most
of him, and wherewithal, to do him as much honour as possible.
Box, however, is but an incident in the general movement,
11,,z is but a man of to-day, and passes off the stage to-morrow.
The book publishers thus, are working their presses day and
nght to supply the demand for Pickwick, Oliver Twist, Bar.
naby Mudge. &c. The milline s are delighted amazingly that
something has got along to give the greatest animation to their
trade. The news-boys rejoice that there is a new tune for them
to pitch. An excitement is got up, and an excitement is a
treasure to them. The shopkeepers, too, have their harvest out
of 13oz, and more or less, all trades thrive. Thus, all cry " Boz,"
" Boz," " Boz" and " Boz " is made the greatest lion that ever
trod the street of New York.

The l3oz Ball to night, no doubt, will be one of the most
magnificent affairs ever got up in New York. There will be
full 2,500 persons present, if not 3,000.
THE COURSE OF JOHN QUINCY. ADAMS.—The Opposition
Members of the Ohio Legislature, that is to say, the late Van
Buren men, have passed resolutions in the Senate (ayes 19,
noes 17), and in the House (ayes 33, noes 29), pronouncing
Mr. Adams &serving the merited censure of his countrymen,
and the indignant disapprobation of the House. It was at a'
midnight session t efore these resolutions were got through, and
after hot and indignant resistance on the part of the Whigs.
Per contra, in Rochester, N. Y., the people, without distinc-
tion of party, have had a meeting approving his course ; and
in Brooklyn a simi'ar meeting is talked of.
WE THOUGHT IT WOULD COME TO THIS.—The Plymouth
Bock says :--" We have been favoured by a young lady with
the reading of a copy of a letter from ' Boz,' in reply to a re-
quest made by some three or four Plymouth ladies, for a lock
of Dickens's hair. He declines a compliance with that re-
quest, becauie it would afford a precedent, which if followed,
would shortly resultin total baldness. Boz couched his letter
in sery pretty terms, and his reply was a proper one."
