DEA TSI of A AU Inquest war held last,
weetatt Liverpool, upon the body of i dwat f, belonging
to a showman who had a caravan in that town. The
dwatf was fifty-one years of age, and under four feet in
height. It appeared in evidence, that the caravan con-
sisted of a Malacca man, who passed for a wild negro,
a remarkably fat boy, a white-headed girl, a dwarf
' woman, and the deceased, who met his death from
drunkenness, producing apoplexy, he having been plied
with rum by a Gentleman who visited the exhibition.
Tuesday, about twelve o'clock, a number of prisoners
under confinaneet in Leeds gaol. amused themselves
by heaping the straw is their cell upon the fire, which
ignited the soot in the chimney. The gaoler immedi-
ately proceeded to the spot, and ektinguislie4 the dames
at the bottom, while his son proceeded.to the roof; and
poured a bucket of water down the fine; after which
they thought ail was safe. About half-past seven in
the evening, however, a considerable sensation was,
excited, by an alarm being given that the ceiling at the
furtherend of the Court, over the prisoners day room,
wbieb is most difficult of access, was in a blaze. The
engines were on the spat, but could not be brought
into immediate exercise; and, with some difficulty, a
ladder was procured, by which meant several made
their way to the part from wbich the dames proceeded.
It was then discovered, thattbe rafters between the falser
and upper roof sierifast` Conennairip• and that the de.
souring element witriging furiously. Two enter-
- prieiag individuals, however, evidently -at their own
• otn, on account of the beat and density Oche *twos-
- plies*, made their way between the two roofs to the
i.e. and threw op some buckets of ante. The slates
at the top were then broken in, and by the praise-
worthy exertions efthose in attendance, thellames were
got under, though last until considerable damage• had
been done. .On esaininatiOn 'Whits Beth diecovered,
that a piece of limber, which totaled part of the flue
above described, sad communicated a nth the rafters in
the roof, was the cause of the accident.
One day, as his Majtity's ship Minden was running
down the coast of Malabar, in the East Indies, the gun-
. ner, who was fatuous for long words, or jawbreakers,
as Jack would call them, pointing at the termination of
a range of mountains, called the Ghauts, asked the
Master, if': I hat ere was the exterminatton of the Grua?"
Shortly afterwards one of the Mid. was repeating to
his me:smote*, in the gon-rooni, this specimen of old
Wadd's arthography, Who overhearing the story, and
the laugh that followed it, fegan to suspect that he had
been guilty et some blunder; so he thrust his'head out,
of bit cabin door with the following explanation ; " I
tell ye what it is. yogic Gentlemen ; this here's all a
eaggeratioa of Mr. to work upon your risabk
;facilities. I never raid no such thing; I said, Mr.
• M—t. says I, de the (Ants esterffeinato here ?" 'Upon
another occasion, when some of the Mid. were thing
of the Magnifying /rowers of different telescopes, the
gunner rems: ked, that he had once seen the thy lights
of Jupiter through a telescope of a huitarcd horse power!,
