the larger amount, and with his brother paid it into the
Commercial Bank, Henrietta-street, Covent-garden.
A LIFE CAR.—Our New York correspondent says:—
Mr. Francis has recently produced a life car, which has
been very successful, and will probably change the cha-
racter of future shipwrecks. The machine consists of an
iron boat, with a top which can be fastened down, and
when close the car resembles a double boat, the concavi-
ties facing each other. In this the passengers on board
the wreck are placed, the cover being fastened down, and
they are hauled on shore by a line, without being wet, or
even chilled. The car cannot upset even in the surf. On
the 12th of January last, the ship Ayrshire was wrecked
on Squam Beach, in New Jersey, in a terrific snow storm.
By means of Mr. Francis's life car, the passengers and
crew, every soul of them, men, women, and children, were
saved alive, and not only saved, but brought ashore with-
out feeling the cold. The system is gradually being
adopted along our coasts. For three hundred miles
southerly below this port these life cars, with howitzers
for throwing lines, are regularly stationed, and in every
instance they have been perfectly successful.
A FOOTMAN IN LOVE.—At Marylebone Police. office,
on Monday week, Richard M'Allister, a man rather
shabbily dres.ed, was charged with having been near the
premises of Miss Bellew, Primrose Hill-road, for an un-
lawful phrpose. The man formerly lived in the house
as footman ; he declared that he was in love with his
mistress, and that she returned his passion ; the lady
heard this, and discharged him. He has since pestered
her, pretending at times that she owes him £2, and
talking about their mutual passion. Two years ago, he
was sent to prison, in default of finding sureties, for
threats and annoyance. He has since renewed his out-
rages, going to Miss Bellew's house, and alarming her by
his presence. The Magistrate was employed for a consi-
derable time in the investigation, endeavouring to disco-
ver if M'Allister had recently used actual threats of vio-
lence. Miss Bellew was examined, and was much excited,
so that the Magistrate had to beg her to be more calm.
The defendant declared to Mr. Broughton that Miss Bel-
IT had promised to marry him, and no one but him;

Bellew—" I'm surprised, sir, that you have only secured
this man for a month ; at the end of that time we shall be
shot !"
