Lord Ellenborough's " wild elephant" letter will
again be the subject of Parliamentary discussion. Mr.
J. Stewart has given notice that on the 4th of March he
will move for copies of all correspondence between his
Majesty's Commissioners for the Affairs of India, or
either of them, and any of the Authorities at Bombay,
respecting the interference of the Bombay Government
,with certain proceedings of the Supreme Court of Judi-
cature at the Presidency in the months of August and
September, 1828, or at any subsequent period.
M. Chatelain, responsible editor of the Courr►er Fran -
foie, was brought up, on Thursday last, before the Tri-
bunal of Correctional Police at Paris, to receive judg-
ment for a libel against M. Mangin, in his official capacity
as Prefect of Police, contained in an article entitled
" Philantropie de M. Mangin." He was sentenced to
15 days' imprisonment, and a fine of 500 francs.
A very simple and ingenious method of preventing
drowning at sea has just been brought to light. It consists
of a loose calico waistcoat, made double throughout, sown
close, or rather bound, at the edges, and furnished at one
part with a tube and plug; if air be blown into the waist-
coat n hen dry, it of course passes through the calico,
and nothing happens; but if the waistcoat be first
wetted, and air then blown in, it retains the air under
considerable pressure, and renders the body of the wearer
buoyant for a considerable time.
So vivid were the flames issuing from the English
Opera House and its neighbourhood, yesterday morning,
that the reflection, as far off as Kensington, illumined the
street and the windows like the rays of a bright morning
sun ; and the smell of the fire was as strong as if it were
raging at the Palace, instead of being so distant as the
Strand. The light was much stronger, and more ex-
panded, than that of the Argyll Rooms, as seen from the
same spot, though the latter fire was a mile nearer.
The Duke of St. Alban's house at Highgate was bar-
glariously entered on the night of Sunday last. The
thieves effected an entrance by breaking open the door to
the conservatory ; several other doors were likewise
forced, until they reached the drawing-room, from which
was taken a valuable time-piece, and other property to the
amount of 1301. The new police have lately taken charge
of that district, but so few are they in number, and so in-
competent in many respects to perform the duty, that
complaints have been made to the Commissioners of Po-
lice upon the subject. The answers returned have been
that no alteration in the system should be adopted. The
inhabitants of Highgate have, therefore, re-appointed the
established watch, for their security and protection, and
funds for defraying the expenses have been raised by Yu-
!votary subscription.
