An Interesting anecdote of the Noble family of ETA,-
CORD has accidentally come to out knowledge, and
which, though perhaps the parties concerned would not
wish to be noticed, yet we think it would be unjust to
suppress. An aged and intim' woman, a pause of
Suthtslandshire. Joie Grey, whit has b en in L'.ndon
nearly 60 years. had her name enrolled last we. k as a
candidate for• the bounty of the Scottish Corp, ration,
in Fleet street. She had several.friends to advocate hei
just claims on the benevolence of that Society; but
they wire .not numerous enough on this occasion, and
she was outvoted. Earl Gowan, whose' knowledge of
such a person being in existence was derived alone Born
seeing her name in the printed list of candidates, per-
sonally attended at the &ots Hall, in order to render
her all his influence; but his Lordship was afterwards in-
formed by a disinterested friend•that the helpless übjtct
of his kind intentions was disappointed in her applies-
Lion. Instantly upon learning this, Earl Gowaa waited
upon his Noble Mother, with the account of Jaw
Grey's distresses, and her Ladyship readily expressed
her wish to make up the sum which success would have
insured. This was accordingly arranged in e way suit-
able to the case; and poor Jane Grey is provided with
sucn meads, petiodically, as will ample suffice to 'sup.
ply her moderate wants till a canvass. nest year at
the Hall will satisfy The Governors that a more de-
serving object of benevolence was, perhaps, never
brought under their notice. The astonishment and
gratitude of the'poor woman on receiving such' erne*,
petted and liberal assistance, well nigh overpowered
her feeble frame ; and that life which would have pro-
bably fatten under the accumulation of years of infir-
mity and distress, is now preserved
