Fsiday evening last, about seven o'clock, the inhabi-
tants of the village of Littleton Drew, Wiltshire, were
thrown into a dreadful state of commotion, by a mur-
der being committed in a house occupied by a man and
his family of the name of Browne, where it appeared
that he had lived for nine years, during which time be
had paid his landlord only 61. towards the rent, the
rent being 101. per annum. The landlord, after finding
it impossible to obtain payment from his tenant, wished
to get him out of his house, and said that if he,
Browne, would pay one year's rent, he would forgive
him the remainder of what was due; but Browne re•
fused to accede ; his landlord then offered to forgive
him the whole, if he would only quit the house; even
this liberal offer he rejected. The landlord then took
legal measures to eject him, and after proceedings were
instituted, the constAble of the parish was called to as•
sist the execution of the ejectment; the officer, knowing
what sort of a man he had to deal with, considered it
necessary to have assistance, arid took with him
two men, named Shears and Thomas, when they
entered the premises to take Browne and his
family out. Brown met them with a dagger, with,
which he stabbed Shears just below the hearr,from which
wound he died in less than half an hour. Thomas was

likes ise stabbed in three different parts of his body.—
Me.fical assistance was instantly brought to the suf-
ferers, but Shears died before its arrival, and but little
hopes are entertained of the recovery of Thomas.—
Browne is in custody waiting the Coroner's Inquest.—

of this Society was held at the Committee Rooms, in Sackville-
street. Sir Jests NCGatcoa, K.C. B. the President, in the Chair.
...A communication from Dr. Roxburgh and H. E. Coiehrooke,
Esq. on the Malatesta' Cetimputi, was read, and received with great
interest. —Mr. Feorr, the Society's Botanical Professor, next di-
rected the attention of the members and visitors to a number of
very rare and splendid plants, all of then: exotic, which lay on the
table. Amongst them were, the Acacia Nigricaos and the %am-
monia Africans, and several Chinese plants. Mr. Frost took oc-
casion to observe, that these plants were not to be esteemed merely
on account of their beautiful foliage and fragrance, but principally
for their healing and chemical properties, and their being a present
from one of his Majesty's Commissioners for the Navy (Dr. Bur-
nett). Mr. Frost stated the great importance that science would
derive. were the Medical Metre of the navy more particularly to
devote their attention to the study of Botany; touching as they did
at every part of the globe, they had opportunities of adding to be-
tanicqi science pc:sseued by no others. -dlr. Frost concluded by
complimenting the Society on the advancement it would undoubt-
edly receive from the exec bons of his Grace the Duke of Somerset,
who, since his becoming a member. had been a constant attendant
at their meetings.—Mr. friend, the Society's Envoy to Dr
was introduced to the President, on his arrival from that Island.—
Thanks being voted to ,Ir. Frost for his remarks, the meeting
broke up.—Amongst the members present, we noticed his Grace
