BURGLARY AND SUICIDE.—OXBRIDGE, MARCH 9.
—On the evening of Sunday, during church time, a light was
perceived in the parsonage house, the residence of the Rev.
George 13eadon, vicar of this town. The neighbours, with a
kind promptitude, came to the door and rang the bell, 8 c., and
in a snort time entered the house, both in front and back. Be-
fore any one was seen the report of a pistol was heard, near the
front door, and on reaching the spot a young man, well known to
all, was found lying dead, with a discharged pistol in his
right hand, a loaded one in his pocket, and a stick, with
• lead at both ends, by his side, and an iron instrument under the
front door. It aas concluded that, seeing escape to be impos-
sible, he had shot himself. Not an article in the house aas mining
or seemed displaced. No accomplice was discovered. An inquest
has h •en held on the body, and a verdict of " Self-destruction by
a t, istol," returned. On his person were found a brace of pistols,
one discharged and the other loaded, a life preserver, eleven
keys, a‘• jemmy," made on the best principle, one skeleton
key, anti picklocks of various descriptions, also the key of the
front door, which had been lost about five weeks before, and
by which, no doubt, the entrance was effected.— Keene's Bath

in Clonmel, a police constable, who was examined as a wit-
ness, after giving his testimony that the prosecutrix in the
case was not worthy of credit on her oath, added : " I know
nothing of her, but what I heard the neighbours say ; and
in my opinion, what women say of one another is not worthy
of belief."

HOUSE OF LORDS, March 15.
The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool-
sack at Five o'Clock. *),
The LORD CHANCELLOR, in moving that the
Report respecting Presbyterian Marriages in Ireland,
which he had laid on the table of the House last
night, be printed, said that, with reference to
that Report, he would just mention that he had
this morning received seine resolutions agreed to
by the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in
Ireland, and held in Belfast, which had been communi-
cated to him by the Moderator. Referring to the
case at Carrickfergus, one resolution was to the effect
that under the unhappy circumstances of this case they
(the Assembly) were anxious that Parliament should
abstain .from legislation on this subject until an
appeal had been made to the House of Lords, which
would determine what marriages were allowed by
law. Another resolution stated that since passing
the foregoing resolutions they had heard, with
great satisfaction that a
in committee of that Hutise had
been appointed to take into consideration the law re-
lating to marriages Ireland.
Lord BROUGHAM said that this was the Assembly
to which he had referred on several occasions in alluding
to the subject of Presbyterian marriages.
Several messages came up from the House of Com-
mons, bringing up the West India (Bishops) Bill, Mit-
ford's Divorce Bill, the London and Greenwich Railway
Act Amendment Bill, and other measures.

THE COANIt,LAWS;
The Earl of RADNOR presentedvetitions from Stock-
port, St. Alawe's' and other places, for a repeal of the
Corn-laws ; he abo stated his dislike of the Bill before
the other House.
