little interest is excited on the occasion, notwith-

this populous district. The only Conservative candi-
date is Mr. Wilson. The following were the numbers

CHARITY.
Mr. Hardwick, on taking his seat at the Marl-
borough-street Police-court, yesterday, said it gave
him the highest gratification to announce the receipt
of a letter from the Russian Ambassador, Baron
Brunnow, inclosing the munificent donation of 50/.,
and couched in terms which did equal honour to the
head and heart of the representative of a great nation.
The letter was as follows :
" Ashburnham Muse, Dec. 21.

RATHER UNPLEASANT.—On Monday
last,when
the Inverary Castle, iron-steamer, was on her pas-
sage from Glasgow to Lochgilphead, it was discovered
by two of the crew, shortly after leaving
Dunoon,
that she was making water rapidly, and that it had
already reached the fore-cabin floor. ' On the alarm
being given, the Captain went immediately below, and
on coming upgave orders to run her ashore, but after-
wards told the pilot to proceed to Inland. On reach-
ing that place he found the pumps were keeping
the
water so far under, that he resolved on
rounding
Toward-point, and proceeding to Rothesay. The
passengers, who were naturally less courage°us, were,
of course, much alarmed, especially as the crew ap-
peared, by their manners and gestures, to be preparing
for the worst. Fortunately, the vessel reachedßoonthiet:
say in safety, and shortly afterwards proceeded
course to Lochgilphead; many of the passengers,
however, remaining behind.—Glasgow Citizen.
