SERIOUS ACCIDENT FROM ,DISSECTION.-Dr. W ills, of
Greenock, Ayrshire, while amputating a man's leg in an
advanced state of gangrene, unfortunately scratch, ed his
thumb, and thus inoculated himself with the animal pc iison,
which speedily caused his thumb to swell, and has pro-
duced such an effect on his system, that a large tui nour
has appeared, and serious apprehensions are felt for
h is life.

LADIES' BUSTLES.—A few evenings since, a very de-
cently-attired female, about thirty years of age, stop ped
at a hardware stall in one of our markets, where she was
engaged inspecting and pricing the various articles ex-
posed for sale. She, however, suddenly turned pale .and
uttered a slight exclamation. Several females imagit ied
that she had been taken ill ; one, however, nearer to I ier
stooped down and picked up the cause of illness, —Lter
bustle, which, in her exertions to reach the articles .on
the stall, had burst the ligatures which confined it, and it
fell down, and in its fall some of the stuffing was scat-
tered on the pavement. The unfortunate fair one snatched
her treasure and darted off at railway speed through a
narrow passage, but not till curiosity had ascertained the
nature of the ornament, and its contents, which proved to
have been a small bag, stuffed with several pcunds of
good farina. For what particular purpose such an ap-
pendage had been placed in such a situation, deponent I
sayeth not.-llalifax Guardian..

REMARKABLE FACT.—In 1843 young man named
Reuben Brinkworth was, whilst at Bermuda, deprived of
both hearing and speech during a. thunder-storm. He
returned to England, the effect of this sad occurrence
remaining, and resided at Stroud, his native place. He
next went to Newport, Monmouthshire, where he lived
with Mr. Nash, basket-maker,, Market-street, who is
connected with the Mormonites. These persons induced
the young man to be baptized, and the ceremony accord-
ingly took place late on Friday night. He was taken to
the canal and baptized in the name of our Saviour ;41nd
immediately on coming up out of the water, he cried out,
" Thank the Lord, I can speak and hear again, as well as
any of you !" The fact was even so—he has quite reco-
vered ; and whether the reader looks upon the cure as the
immediate agency of Providence, or the result of electri-
city as the secondary cause (thunder-storms had prevailed
a day or two before), we have only done our duty in re-
cording the circumstance as it occurred.—Hereford Jrnl.
SWINDLING.—A rather ingenious piece of fraud was
perpetrated in the neighbourhood of Brechin a short time
ago. A watch and clock maker, in that town, had sold an
eight-day clock to a farmer in the Braes of Menmuir, and
sent it home with a man to put it up, and a discharged re-
ceipt-for the price. The farmer having been absent on the
occasion, the money was not obtained, and the receipt was
brought back. In a few days, the farmer called on the
watchmaker and remarked, en passant, that he hoped he
had got his cash all right. The watchmaker, surprised,
observed that he had got no cash, but that his receipt had
been returned by the man to whom he had entrusted it.
The farmer laid before him a receipt for the amount, an
exact copy of the original, but in a different hand. It
appears that, not being acquainted with the watchmaker's
caligraphy, he had given the money to a man who called
on him, and, presenting the receipt, stated that he bad
been sent for it; to whom he paid the cash. It is strongly
suspected that the watchmaker's servant had, after leaving
the farmer's house, forgathered with a kindred spirit, who
had copied the receipt, and, being made acquainted with
the circumstances, had called and got the money.—Edin-
burgh Paper.
ROMAN CATHOLIC ENDOWMENT.— On Wednesday
night a numerous meeting of persons opposed to the en-
dowment of the Roman Catholic Religion, and Religious
establishments generally, was held at the Finsbury Chapel.
Mr. E. Miall was called to the chair. The Rev. J. Gor-
don proposed the following resolution :—" That this meet-
ing, having the profoundest conviction of the evils result-
ing from legislating by the civil government in matters of
religion, rejoice in the evident tendency of public events
both in this country and the Continent to hasten the down-
fall of ecclesiastical establishments." The Rev. Dr. Massey
seconded the resolution." Mr. R. Taylor said there was a
large portion of the population who he feared possessed
very little of the religious sentiment. He thought that
for their sakes the entire abolition of those religious esta-
blishments which had been founded by the piety of their
ancestors, would be an evil. He could not believe it
wrong that the state should contribute to the support of
religion. So far he dissented from the resolution. The
resolution was then put and carried. The Rey. J. Burnet
moved a resolution pledging the meeting to oppose the
endowment of the Roman Catholic priesthood. The
Rev. Reid seconded the resolution, which was carried. A
vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meet-
ing separated.
MR. BUNN ON DRAMATIC ARTISTES. —Mr. Alfred
Bunn, manager of the Theatre Royal, Covent Garden, has
addressed a letter to the editor of the London Standard,
in reply to some remarks in that journal in reference to
his not introducing in his programme the names of soi-
disant professors of the " legitimate drama." He states
that though he is warranted in declining engagements with
such artistes, he had ever manifested a desire to introduce
them in his arrangements. He offered Miss Helen Faw-
cett £25 a week, but that lady demanded £l5 a night, or
£9O a week. He offered Mrs. Nisbett the same sum, but
she stated that she had recently received £6O, and would
not act in after pieces. He offered Mr. Anderson £2O per
week, but he wanted £lO per night, with certain other
considerations. With allusion to former actresses and
actors who were content with the offers he made, he con-
cluded by saying—" I am old-fashioned enough to think
that the histrionic talent we possess is by no means equal
to what we have lost ; that English performers neither
public are not tb be blamed nif'conhnifig their patronage
to first-rate instead of second-rate artistes, and that a
director cannot justly be condemned for refusing to give
the latter about three times the salaries, on an average,
than were given to the former.
PROPOSED ALTERATION IN THE MODE OF KEEPING
TIME.—In a letter to the editor of the Nottingham
Journal, Mr. J. A. Novello, of Dean-street, Soho, Lon-
don, suggests—" That it would be very convenient to
number the hours of the day from one to twenty-four,
beginning at midnight, as the additional words 'morning,'
afternoon," evening,"a.m.," p.m.' at present essential
to specify the time, might be dispensed with, and we should
then have a distinct name for each hour of the day. Mr.
Novello considers that this is becoming more necessary to
the proper understanding of railway time-bills, especially
for the long lines. The proposed numbering would take
no extra room in any tables, as four figures are already
required for the hours and their fractions. No difficulty
would occur even with the clocks, which could easily have
the additional figures placed in an outer or inner circle on
the face." " In England," he adds, " I think this change
would find universal adoption, if two establishments were
to adopt it—l mean the post office and the railways. The
announcement—' The packet sails Sept. 16, at fourteen
o'clock,' would completely explain the time, instead of
saying two o'clock in the afternoon." " We," says the
editor of the Nottingham Journal," so thoroughly approve
of the above excellent suggestion, that we intend to act
upon it."
SALE OF A WIFE.—A young man of Edwinstowe,
named Freeman. having resolved to withdraw himself
from the Eden of wedlock, brought his wife to Mansfield
market, and offered her for sale. In the midst of the
corn-market, close to the town-hall, the fellow with his
unloved and unloving spouse took up his position to carry
his resolution into effect. There she stood, a comely
country-looking girl, of some 18 years or so, with her
waist engirdled by a new halter, bought expressly for the
occasion. The husband, attired in the habiliments of an
agricultural labourer, announced his intention, and
speedily disposed of his " angel love," halter included,
for the astounding sum of ls. 6d. The purchaser dis-
posed of the halter for 3d., and thus eventually obtained
the precious allotment for ls. 3d. After the sale, Free-
man demanded of the woman the wedding-ring he sup-
posed her to have on her finger. The wily woman,
having surmised that such a circumstance might probably
occur, had provided herself with a penny brass ring,
which she presented to him instead of the gold one, and
which the unblushing salesman, with much apparent com-
placency, deposited carefully in his pocket. Nature hav-
ing infused no large amount of bashfulness into their
composition, there was no diffidence displayed on either
side, nor were the parties in the least disconcerted by the
laughs and jeers of the crowd of idlers that witnessed the
novel spectacle.—Nottingham Review.
AFFECTING OCCURRENCE.—A working man at Mer-
thyr, named Longfellow, last week sent a letter to his
wife then staying at Newport, saying he was much dis-
tressed in mind, as he had had a dream for two or three
nights, in which he saw himself surrounded by some great
trouble, which was occasioned either by injury to her or
their only child, a very interesting boy of five years old.
He therefore begged her to come to Merthyr, that he
might be relieved of his foreboding; and he particularly
cautioned her to avoid all danger by the way. Anxious
to free her husband's mind from its distress, and to show
him that herself and his darling boy were well and happy,
she on Wednesday morning settled her affairs in Newport,
packed up her goods, and placed them all ready for her
departure ; but before she went, she bade her neighbours
good bye. While at the house of one, taking some re-
freshment, to which she went accompanied by her little
boy, she was talking of her journey, and did not perceive
the absence of the child for a few minutes. In the inte-
rim he had stolen out, and with his bread and cheese in
hand, was talking to a woman, saying he was going away
presently, for his mother had washed and dressed him for
the journey ; and then the little merry-hearted fellow ran
off, saying lie was " going to say good bye to Johnny," who
had been his playmate. Nothing more was heard or seen
of him alive. He was afterwards taken quite dead out of
the canal, into which, in his eager haste, he had fallen.
PERILOUS ADVENTURE.—A gentleman wished to have
in his possession a living specimen of the cough or Cor-
nish crow, a bird now becoming rare, and which always
builds in the precipitous sides of the cliffs. Two brothers
engaged to furnish him with young birds from the nest.
They accordingly provided themselves with a rope, and
proceeded to a place where they knew to be frequented by
these birds. One of them tied an end of the rope round
his waist, and his brother lowered him over the edge of
the cliff, holding the rope in his hand. When he had
arrived opposite the nests he found that they were built

and secured his prize, which he stored away in his bosom.
Meanwhile, the rope had swung back to the perpendicular,
and was resting motionless. Without hesitation he called
to his brother above " Stand by the rope ! I'm going to
leap to it !" He aid so ; but the rope, as might have

adventure is said to have happened in the parish of Breage.

THE CHOLERA.—Two cases of cholera were admitted
into Bartholomew Hospital on Wednesday ;. one a la-
bourer, and the other his daughter, a girl of seven years.
The father died the same day : the daughter recovered.
Cholera has likewise been fatal in the vicinity of the Lon-
don Docks, and rt the east end of the metropolis.
THE CHOLERA.—Mr. Grainger, accompanied by Dr.
Ayre, proceeded to Haniburgh on Saturday. Dr.. Suther-
land remained in Hull throughout Saturday and Monday.
On the latter day he expressed his entire conviction that
there was not any cholera in the town. On Tuesday

morning he proceeded to Sunderland, but is expected
very shortly to return here and to follow his colleague,
Mr. Grainger, to Hamburgh.—Hull Packet.
_ _

THE CHOLERA AT WOOLWICH.—The cholera has made
its appearance here, and three fatal cases have occurred
on board the convict ship moored opposite the royal
arsenal, the whole of the sufferers being convicts. The
first ease took place on Friday, and the convict died after
about seven hours' illness. Of the cases on Saturday two
died—one after about seven hours' illness, and the other
in abeut. two hours after he had gone to the ship, having
been taken ill when at work in the royal :arsenal, Two

cases were reported as having occurred .on Sunday; but,
up to the afternoon, they had fortunately not proved fatal.
Tun CHOLERA.—A notification has been received from
Edinburgh, announcing the appearance there of malig-
nant cholera in five cases, three in one part of the city,
and two in another. Three of the cases had proved fatal
within, twenty-four hours. The College of Surgeons had
advised the formation of a local Board of Health. Dr.
Sutherland, who had been investigating two cases-of cho-
lera occurring at Sunderland on board a vessel from Ham-
burgh, had, on Thursday, been directed by the General
Board of Health to proceed to Edinburgh and, take steps
in aid of• the organization of a local Board of Health, and
measures of prevention or alleviation.—The Edinburgh
Post of Saturday says—" We have the satisfaction, how-
ever, of being enabled to state, on the authority, of medical
gentlemen who have professionally-attended some of these
cases, that there is not that great cause for alarm which
the statements given out at the Parochial Board yesterday
are likely to occasion. The cases which have occurred
partake more of the character of British than Asiatic
cholera, and the parties who have been seized are persons
whose habits of life have not been of the most temperate
description."

DISCORD AMONG THE WESLEYANS.—A. correspondent
of the Watchman attributes the " want of prosperity" of
the connexion mainly to the following cause. "There are
the says) a few brethren, who, during the last and the
preceding conference, have manifested such a spirit of
animosity against other brethren, and have seized every
opportunity so vigilantly of showing that spirit, that
attendance upon the conference, which Fused to hail with
such great satisfaction and pleasure, has become to me a
matter of great repugnance and regret. Whatever may
be my own determination as to the future, I know at least
one venerable minister, held in consideration by the whole.
conference, who has said that, if the-same spirit is to con-
tinue unchecked, he shall think it to be his duty to cease
to attend the conference."

THE SAMPHIRE GATHERERS.—.We consider the fol-
lowing fact worthy of record, in order to show how minute
and extended are the ramifications of the convulsions of
the continent. A poor man, who collects the sea side
herb called samphire, much used for pickling, called, as
he has done for some years past, on a tradesman to know
how much samphire he wouki require this year,— the
tradesman being in the habit of sending annually a large
quantity of it to a wholesale house in London. He accor-
dingly wrote to enquire what they should want, when the
answer returned was, that, from the disturbed state of the
continent, their business was so much interrupted, that
they should not require any this year. Thus, even the
poor samphire collector is intimately interested in the
restoration of order and preservation of peace.
DIABOLICAL OUTRAGE.—A girl of the name of Daven-
port, who had absented herself from her work in the cot-
ton-mill, called on Mr. M'Farlan, superintendent, at his
house in Ann-street, and in a very noisy manner asked
the wages due to her. He refused then to give them, and
she went away. Shortly after a little boy knocked at Mr.
M'Farlan's door, and said that a woman wished to speak
with him. Mr. M'Farlan, who suspected who wanted
him, did not choose to attend her calk, and was in the act
of shutting the door, when in an instant, the woman,
mother of the girl referred to, ran forward and threw a
cupful of vitriol in Mr. M'Farlan's face, burning him
severely. His wife, with her child in her arms, was stand-
ing immediately behind Mr. M•Farlan, and she and the
child, especially the latter, were also much burned about
the face. Mrs. Davenport was speedily apprehended.—
Greenock Advertiser.

SCAN-MAG.—A singular affair has lately happened near
Ashton. A young lady, an orphan, having a fortune of
£l,OOO when she came to age last month, was wooed in
vain by a young man of the village, and who a short time
since was thrown into despair by his fair mistress marry-
ing a Manchester bagman, who had been on a visit in the
village. The affair was kept secret, till some one inform-
ing the young lady's guardian of the fact, he proceeded to
administer personal correction to the young lady. She
resented the insult by quitting the house next day with the
intention of going to Bristol. On the road she met the
cavalier who had once wooed her. Her old partiality for
him returned. He proposed—she hesitated—and was lost.
Like riches, they " took unto themselves wings, and fled
away," carrying with them the £l,OOO, and the husband
doesn't know where to find either. We believe the alliance
the young lady so clandestinely contracted is displeasing
to her friends, and they will not, therefore, assist her liege
lord and master in endeavouring to discover her where-
- zi-trdLV 172-r!s iIL at LUASELLER:—A well-dressed young
man, with lavender-coloured gloves on his hands, has been
tramping the streets of this town for the last few days,
offering lucifer matches for sale, giving out that he is the
unfortunate lover who is condemned to sell a certain num-
ber of boxes before the hard-hearted father of his •‘ ladye
love" will allow him to marry her, of which we gave a
notice some weeks since ; and of which story this gen-
tleman" has been cunning enough to take advantage.
He is vastly too delicate to carry his own goods about,
only burdening himself with a box or two at a time, being
attended by a man with a number of boxes stuck round
his hat, and carrying a good supply in a carpet-bag .1 We
hope he may meet with the success he deserves, and that
the poor little children who try to get a living by selling
their boxes of matches, will not find their trade much
injured by the genteel match-men.—(Leicester Mercury.)
We find from the Derby Reporter that this man and his
" servant" were taken on Monday by the police before
the Derby magistrates, for obstructing the thoroughfares,
and were discharged on promising to leave the town.
THE FLoons.—The Valley of the Severn may now be
aptly style the Severn sea, being flooded to a consider-
able extent.
Owing to the continuous and heavy rain
which prevailed in the later part of last week, the river
continued to rise for several days afterwards, until over-
leaping its banks it has covered the meadows on either
side with an extraordinarily wide expanse of super-
abundant waters. The Valley of the Severn now pre-
sents a very curious appearance : the river forcing its
rapid and troubled course through a sheet of placid
waters, which becomes all the more remarkable, streaked
as it is by the partially submerged hedge-rows, and dotted
by trees. We are not aware that any material damage
has been done by the flood in this locality, and it is now
subsiding. On Monday, a young man, named Cooke,
was drowned near Maisemore-bridge, by falling into the
current while trying to get ashore with a cable from a
long-boat, which had broken adrift at the Upper Parting,
At Tewkesbury, the Warwickshire Avon, which unites
the Severn at Tewkesbury, rose much more rapidly, and
to a greater height than has been experienced for very
many years ; and if the waters of the Severn had run
down with equal force with those of the Avon, the flood
would indeed have been a most extraordinary one. The
whole of the medows in the neighbourhood of Tewkes-
bury were entirely covered with water to a considerable
depth; and three out of the four principal roads which
lead into the borough were rendered quite impassable ;
but no material loss, except the carrying away a quantity
of timber, and removing some fencing, occurred in the
immediate vicinity of the town. At Evesham, very many
have experienced great losses. Mr. Holtom, of Cleeve,
it is said, has had seventy sheep washed away, and Mr.
Hopkins, of Offenham, twenty ; the latter has also lost
a cart'colt.—Gloucester Chronicle.
WOMBWELL'S MENAGERIE.—Such a series of disasters
has seldom occurred on the transition of a collection of
beasts as happened between Seaton and Lyme Regis on
Sunday week. Soon after the carriages began to be re-
moved from Seaton the rain fell in torrents, literally
soaking them, and continued the whole of the way. On
coming up Bossell-hill, the van which contained the lions
and tigers fell over, and with great diffidulty was again
put in an upright position, to proceed on its journey. On
the arrival of the van containing the elephant by High
Cliffe House, where the road is very steep, the shaft of
the van touched the legs of one of the horses, which corn-
ri.enced plunging and kicking furiously, and frighteninc,
the other horses drawing the van, upon which the whole
of them set off at a gallop down the hill, nearly coming
into collision with the landau of R. B. Wrey, Esq., of
Wier Cliffe, in which was Mrs. Wrey; returning from
church. Her life was in imminent danger, as the van
threatened to crush her carriage to pieces ; the horses,
however, reached the bottom of the hill without further
damage, but immediately on entering the field of exhibi-
tion the wheel of this ponderous van gave way beneath
its weight, breaking into several pieces, and bringing the
carriage down on its axle-tree. " These disasters were of
a more serious nature than all which had happened to the
menagerie during the whole year previous," said one of the
company, and these, be it remembered, befel it on a Sun-
day. Its misfortunes, however, did not terminate here,
for on drawing the beasts from the town on Tuesday, the
van containing the zebra was turned over, and in order to
set it right again, it had to be disencumbered of its bur-
den, which, for a time, was allowed to be at large in the
field.—Exeter Post.

TliE QUARTER'S REVENUE.—The quarter's revenue
will be made up on Tuesday evening next, up to which
time all receipts will included. It is impossible, there-
fore, for us to give an exact statement to-day. We are
glad, however, to learn that the receipts of the present
quarter will bear a most favaurable comparison with the
corresponding quarter of last year. The total amount
will exceed the receipts of the October quarter of 1847 by
more than £500,000. The chief gain will be in the Ex-
cise, which would in itself have exhibited an improve-
ment in the full extent of what we have announced, had
it not been counteracted by a decrease of more than
£200,000, which is transferred in collection from the
Stamps and Taxes to the Excise. Independendent of
this sum, however, it is matter of sincere congratulation
to find that the Excise returns themselves, which show
the increased consumption of excisable articles, prove by
their increase that the people have resumed, with the
activity of the trade, and the renewal of employment, the
power of purchasing and of consuming those articles still
subject to Excise duties. The Customs, too, will exhibit
an increase, and thus give further proof of the revival of
our foreign trade, and the soundness of our commercial
code. From the Post-office, we regret to say that no
further addition of any consequence is to be expected, in

consequence of the increased expenses of that establish-
ment in providing further extensions to the public ac-
commodation. The property and income-tax exhibits
generally little variation, and cannot be expected to make
more than a very slight addition to the increase of our
resources. The Stamps and Taxes will exhibit a serious
decrease, owing to the reason we have stated above, of
the transference of the carriage duties from this depart-
raent to the Excise. Upon the whole, there is
much
reason for congratulation. The state of the public in-
come is sound, and the prospects of the country cheering.
We have obviously begun to retrace our steps upwards
from our late depression.—Observer.

THE WHITTLE DEAN WAT;Ii .COMPANY.-The in-,
habitants in many parts of this town have for some weeks
past been supplied with water from the reservoirs at
Whittle Dean, which is acknowledged to be greatly supe-
rior to that obtained from the Tyne and filtered at Els-
wick. The company are at present engaged in laying
down a ten feet main in Blackett-street, and in a short
time pipes of capacious bore will be extended to all parts
of the town. A most exaggerated statement, relating to
the bursting of a pipe near to Scotswood, was published
a few days ago, in one of the Liverpool papers, which, it
may be presumed, was intended to produce a local effect,
as water-works have been, projected there on a plan
similar to that of the Whittle Dean, but,. having the
reservoir at a much higher elevation. It is calculated
that if the reservoir can be filled once a year, it will sup-
ply the wants of the population, and if to this we add the
company's other resources it is clear that water is amply
provided for every purpose. In round numbers, say the
distance between us and North America is 190,000,000
inches of length; thus, it appears, that we possess a
resource, of pure element, amounting in gallons to only
one-sixth less than this number of inches. It would
take about five hundred and twenty such ships as the last
built in the Tyne by Messrs. Smith, of 1500 tons burthen
each., to transport this across the broad Atlantic. The
weight of this accumulation of water is 7Z5,629 tons, and
allow that the most powerful locomotives can draw 300
upon an average, it would take 2586 of those to draw this
quantity of water, the cost of which would be at least near
six.millions of pounds sterling.—Newcastle Journal.
