The Duchess of Kingston's trial was men-
tioned last night in Parliament. It reminds us
of an anecdote which we have heard from an old
gentleman who met her Grace on the Continent
soon after the trial. The conversation turned
on that event, and, amongst other things, the
gentleman remarked that his wife had paid five
guineas for a seat that day in-Westminster Hall.
Ah," said the Duchess, " I would have given
her mine for nothing.

We hear that it is in contemplation to erect
commodious Cavalry Barracks in the-fields right
and left of the entrance to Carlisle Castle—the
ditch to be filled up, and the passage to the
Castle to run through the Barrack-yard. It
would not be easy to find a more convenient
scite, or, militarily speaking, a better position.
The buildings would be completely under cover
of the guns of the Castle.—Carlisle Patriot.
Loll]) GREY.—AII our letters from England
concur in the marked dissatisfaction which the
late speech of this Noble Lord has caused to
every lover of Constitutional Liberty, and tli
delight which it has given the party to the con-
spirators. The same effect it has produced here.
He who was called but a few weeks since
radical" Jacobin, &c. &c. is now suddenly dis-
covered to be a high-minded, independent,
staunch old whig, a very 4' refreshing" old
Gentleman.—Dublin Patriot.

The Duke of Bedford has, we understand,
at length let the whole of his ground in the neighbourhood
of Tavistock-square, to Mr. Cubit, and other eminent
architects, on building leases, with an understanding that
the houses shall all'be of the first class. Three excellent
mansions, with extensive gardens and pleasure grounds,
are now built upon the site on which the late Mr. Perry's
delightful house formerly stood. They are surrounded by
nearly two acres of ground, entirely planted with shrubs
and flowers, originally laid eut by Mr. Perry, directed by
the good taste of Mr. Forsyth.
It having been discovered that the Right
Hon. George Canning was, in very early life, a student at
Lincoln's Inn, the Benchers of that Society have elected
him one of their number. This is, however, a rather ex-
pensive compliment to the Premier, as he cannot accept it
without paying up his annual dues to the Society, from the
time of his quitting Lincoln's Inn to the day of his being
elected a Bencher, the amount of which exceeds 250/.
We believe this is almost the only instance of a person
being elected, a Bencher of an Inn of Court without hav-
ing been first called to the bar.—Morning Paper.
A very curious discovery was made in the
Cathedral hare, yesterday, which has occasioned a great sen-
sation in the town. In carrying into effect certain altera-
tions and improvements at the eastern end of the church,
and in that part known as the Chapel of the Nine Altars,
an old oaken coffin was found, containing the remains of
some distinguished personage—believed to be no other than
the Patron Saint, St. Cuthbert, " whose restless body in
the three hundred and ninth yeare after his first burial!,
was, with all funeral pompe, enshrin'd" in " the White
Church," at Durham, in the year 995, 832 years ago !
The skeleton was found to be remarkably perfect, and en-
closed in the remains of robes, richly worked with gold, a
large and bright gold ring, having a crucifix, apparently
of silver, appended, was found lying
on the breast, and
below it the remains of a book ; a large comb was also
found in the coffin. The wood of. which the coffin was
composed was about three inches in thickness, and strongly
clamped with bars of iron. These are all the particulars
we have yet been able to collect, but we hope to obtain
further information before pur next; and should we suc-
ceed, we shall most certainly communicate the same to our
readers.—Durham "Ickertisei.
