The " Arches Court" is an Ecclesiastical Court, and also
very ancient, having existed prior to the reign of Henry the
Second. The name is derived from " Curia de Arcubus,"
the court being held formerly in Bow Church. It is now
held in Doctors'-Commons. _ .

in a provincial Useful Knowledge Institution one of the
members reading "methinks" in Shakspeare, (Much Ado
about Nothing,) remarked to a companion, " this must be
wrong and ungrammatical." " Yes," said the other, "it is
evidently a misprint for I thinks."
LONGEVITY OF WOMEN. •According to recent statistical
investigations it has been ascertained that there died through-
out England and Wales, between Ist July, 1840, and :30th
June, 1841', 5247 females, aged 85 and upwards ; whereas, of
the same age, there died only 3,954 males, leaving a balance
in favour of the old ladies of 1283. Among the females who
died, 71 had passed the age of 100, but only 40 males.
NOSES.—The last number of the Vermont Asylum (Insane)
Journal, contains some numerous remarks on noses. The
mad writer says, " that the nose has been placed by Provi-
dence directly over the mouth, to pass judgment on the food
—a sort of sanitory sentinel—a kind of quarantine officer, to
prevent the entrance into port of all things that are unsafe,
or unfitting." Very true.—New York paper.

the Chief—" Oh, Misther —, I'm not objecting to your

A CAUTIOUS JUDGE.—The lute Chief Baron O'Grady,
father of the gallant officer (Lord Guillimore) aide-de-camp
`v, tried two most notorious fellows, at the Car-

tion—

o her Maj

tent of

the Court, as well as of the prisoners themselves, they were
found not guilty ! As they were being removed from the
bar, the judge, in that manner so peculiarly his own, address-
ing the gaoler, said, " Mr. Murphy, you would greatly ease
my mind, if yon keep those two respectable gentlemen until
seven or half-past seven o'clock; for I mean to set out for
Dublin at five, and I should like to have at least two hours'
start of them."

The following curious anecdote is recorded by Aubrey, in
his " Ostenta" or " Portents," printed in 1698 :—" Sir
Walter Long's widow, of Draycot, Wilts, did make a solemn
promise to him, on his deathbed, that she would not marry

after his decease ; but not long after, one Sir William Fox,
a very beautiful young gentleman, did win her love ; so that
notwithstanding her promise aforesaid, she married him at
South Wraxall, where the picture of Sir Walter Long hung
over the parlour door as it does now. As Sir William Fox
led his bride by the hand from the church, which is near to
the house, into the parlour, the string of the picture brake,
and picture fell on her shoulder, and cracked in the fall. It
was painted on wood, as the fashion was in those days.
This made her ladyship reflect on her promise, and drew
her eyes ?"

AERIAL _ RAVELLING.—The following passage will be
found in the " Mathematical and Philosophical Works of the
Right Rev. John Wilkins, late Lord Bishop of Chester,"
printed in London, by J. Nicholson, in 1708. Wilkins
flourished during the Commonwealth and reign of Charles
11., p. 132:—" I do seriously and upon good grounds affirm
it is possible to make a flying chariot, in which a man may
sit, and give such motion unto it as shall convey him through
the air. And this perhaps might be made large enough to
convey divers men at the same time, together with food for
their viaticum, and commodities for traffic. It is not the
biggest of anything in this kind that can hinder its motion,
' - motive faculty be answerable thereunto. We see a
onip swims as well as a small cork, and an eagle flies in
air as weli as a little gnat. I conceive it were no diffi-
cult thing (if a man had leisure) to show more particularly
the means of constructing it."—Allas.
seven I SATURDAY

NIGHT AT A BOARDING ITOUSE.—Todgers's
was in a great bustle that evening, partly owing to some ad-
ditional domestic preparations for the morrow, and partly to
the excitement always inseparable in that house from Satur-
day night, when every gentleman's linen arrived at a different
hour in its own little bundle, with his private account pinned
on the outside. There was also a great clinking of patters

down stairs, too, until midnight or so, on Saturdays; toge-
ther with a frequent gleaming of mysterious lights in the
area; much working at the pump; and a constant jangling
of the iron handle of the pail. Shrill altercations from time
to time arose between Mrs. Todgers and unknown females
in remote back kitchens ; and sounds were occasionally heard
indicative of small articles of ironmongery and hardware
being thrown at the boy. It was the custom of that youth
on Saturdays to roll up his shirt-sleeves to his shoulders,
and pervade all parts of the house in an aPron of coarse
green baize ; moreover, be was more strongly tempted on
Saturdays than on other days (it being a busy time) to make
excursive bolts into the neighbouring alleys when he answered
the door, and there to play at leapfrog and other sports with
vagrant lads, until pursued and brought back by the hair of
the head, or the lobe of his ear; so that he was quite a con-
spicuous feature among the peculiar incidents of the last day
in the week at Todgers's.—Martin Chuzzlewit.
RETREAT ON JELLALABAD.—SINGULAR RIVER.-It was
the general's original intention to halt at Begramee, close to
the Loghur river, and about five miles from Cabool (reite-
rated was the advice of our Affghan friends—alas, bow little
heeded—to push on at all risks through the Khoord Cabool
the first day) ; but the whole country being a swamp en-
crusted with ice, we went on about a mile further, and halted
at about four p.m. There were no tents save two or three
small palls that arrived. All scraped away the snow as best
they might, to make a place to lie down on. The evening
and night were intensely cold ; no food for man or beast pro-
curable, except a few handfuls of bhoosa, for which we paid
from five to ten rupees. Captain Johnson, in our great dis-
tress, kindly pitched a small pall over us, but it was dark and
we had few pegs; the wind blew in under; the sides, and I
felt myself gradually stiffening. I left the bedding, which
was occupied by Mrs. Sturt and her husband, and doubled
up my legs in a straw chair of Johnson's,. covering myself
with my poshteen. Mr. Mien and the ayah fully occupied
the remainder of the space. We only went in all six miles,
and had to abandon two H.A. guns on the road; we were
also much delayed by the bullocks that dragged the planks in
case the Loghur bridge should have been destroyed. We
had, however, positive information that it was all right, and
so it proved. Previous to leaving cantonments, as we must

abandon most of our property, Stud was anxious to save-z;
few of his most valuable hooks, and to try the experiment of
sending them to a friend in he city. Whilst he selected
these, I found, amongst the ones thrown- aside, Campbell's
poems, which opened at Hohenlinden, and, strange to day,
one verse actually haunted me day and night :
" Few, few shall part wher many meet,
The snow shall be their winding sheet;
And every turf beneath their feet
Shall be a soldier's sepulchre."
I am far from being a believer in presentiments, but this
verse is never absent from my thoughts. Heaven forbid that

STATE or CLONMEL GAOL.—We are sorry to learn that
there are 214 !prisoners in this gaol at this moment, 19 of
which number stand charged with murder.

The Lord Mayor of London stated last week in the House
of Commons that the expense of "Lord Mayor's day" is

Mr. George Macfarren, the music composer and editor of

on the 24th instant, at the age of 54.
The Sheffield Independent states, that it is more than pro-

DELICACIES OF THE SeAsoN.--In Covent Garden Market
strawberries are from ss. to Bs. per ounce • pine apples, 78.
to 9s. per lb. ; and new potatoes, 4d. to 6d. per lb.
Fresh eggs were actually sold in Otley, last market day, at

Notwithstanding the positive assertions to the contrary,
we are enabled to state that Prince Albert will attend the
funeral of the Duke of Susses, and that his royal highness
never had any other intention.--Observer.
REPRESENTATION OF SALISBURY.-Mr. Bouverie, of
Longford Castle, in tbe. liberalinterest, has addressed the
electors of Salisbury, offering himself for the vacancy caused
in the representation of the city by the retirement of Mr.
Brodie.

CURIOSITY.—There is at present to be seen in an apiary
at Thornthwaite, in Woodland, a thrush's nest, in a beehive,
containing four eggs. The bird and the bees are flying out
of and into the apiary daily, and seem not at all to disturb
each other.

NUMEROUS DEATHS BY FIRE.—There were, a few even-
ings ago, no less than four bodies of children in the dead-
house belonging to the London Hospital, all of whom had
died in that institution from the effects of injuries received
by their clothes having accidentally caught fire.
GROSS FABRICATIONS.—The reports now current in the
newspapers of the suicide of a young lady named Moorhouse,
at Romford, of a Mr. Manders, of Woodford, in Essex. and
of Mr. Clifford, a merchant, at Roruford, turn out to be
hoaxes of the most infamous description.

It is rumoured that the Marquis of Salisbury or the Ear
of Zetland will be selected by the masonic body to succeed tc
the Grand Mastership, vacant by the death of his Roya:
Highness the Duke of Sussex. Prince Albert is also men.
tioned.

SAFETY OF THE CONCH.—By the arrival of the Pilot at
Table Bay from Port Natal, we learn that the Conch, store-
vessel, for whose safety there was much apprehension, had
arrived, after having been kept off by contrary winds and
currents about 90 days.

TIDE NEW FACTORY BlLL.—Petitions are now in course
of signature amongst the working classes in Huddersfield
and its vicinity, praying the legislature to pass the Factory
E
.Education Bill now before the house in its present form with
as little delay as possible.

THE QUEEN v. O'CONNOR AND OTHERS.—We under-
stand that the defendants in this case, found guilty at the
last assizes at Lancaster for the county of Lancaster, have
received notice to appear in the Court of Queen's Bench on
Thursday next, the 4th instant, to receive judgment.

An alarming fire took place at the warehouses of Messrs,
Kent and Co., smallware manufacturers, Church-street,
Manchester, by which the loss to Messrs. Kent is estimated
at £l,OOO. Damage was done to several of the adjoining
premises, to the extent of about £3OO. The whole is in-
sured.

A gentleman has written to the Times, complaining that
he was prevented from going into the pit of the Opera House
on Saturday night, because his trowsers were not of kersey-
mere. No objection was made to their colour or their cut ;
yet he was obliged to trudge up into the gallery, greatly
annoyed, yet much amused at the ludicrous sort of objection
that had been made to his dress.

BOROUGH OF AYLESBURY.—We understand that a Dr.
Sleigh, a perfect stranger; backed by the recommendation
and influence of Lord Stanhope, is about to offer himself a
candidate for Aylesbury, a vacancy being expected from the
long and alarming illness of Captain Hamilton, whose resig.
nation will soon be officially notified. Lord Nugent, it is
thought, will be put forward on the Liberal side.—Globe.
A FORTUNATE TOWNSHIP.—Monday last was the day
appointed for receiving the returns of.the various Overseers
in the Wakefield Petty Sessions district, of persons receiving
relief from their respective townships. On the list for
Sharlstone being presented,
.it appeared that there were no
names inserted of parties receiving relief from that township.
On enquiry being made it was ascertained that that township
was in the pleasant position of being without a pauper!
Whilst Major John O'Brien was in front of the troops,
when on review at Chatham, on Monday week, his horse,
which was a spirited animal, became alarmed, and bolted,
when the major, perceiving he had no control over the horse,
released his feet from the stirrups and fell, bruising his head
in a frightful manner. Assistance was immediately rendered,
and the major was conveyed off the ground and a stop put to
the review. He is now likely to recover.

THE QUEEN AND LORD MELBOURNE.--OR the morning
of her Majesty's continemant a special messenger arrived at
Brocket-hall, the seat of Viscount Melbourne, with a despatch
from his Royal Highness Prince Albert, announcing the
gratifying intelligence of her Majesty's safety. We have
much pleasure in announcing this amiable act of the Prince
in relieving the anxiety of one who is well known to be so
devoted in his loyal attachment to her Majesty.—Observer.

KENSINGTON PALACE.—It is generally understood that
her Majesty has been graciously pleased to signify to the
Duchess of Inverness that she may continue to occupy the
apartments in the Palace so long inhabited by his Royal
Highness the Duke of Sussex; but that, as the Duchess will
keep up a more limited establishment than the late Duke, it
is expected her Grace will select a suite in the wing for her
household, leaving the other rooms at the disposal of Govern-
ment.—Observer.

SINKING AND PLUNDERING A SHIP.—On Tuesday the
captain and mate of the ship Native. White and Younghus-
husband, were brought before the Lord Mayor, at the Man-
sion-house, London, for final examination, charged with
sinking and plundering that vessel at sea. Two very impor-
tant ,witnesses were called, whose evidence completely es-
tablished the charge against the prisoner& The crime in-
deed was confessed by the prisoners, and they were commit-
ted for trial at the central criminal court.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.—On the evening of Tuesday,
the 4th instant, being very dark, Hector Gillanders, shep-
herd to Hugh Innes Cameron, Esq., of Dingwall, on his
return from Maryborough, fell into a pool on the south side
of the river Conon, and was drowned. The body of the un-
fortunate man was not discovered until next morning, when
it was found within a short distance of his own house, and
his two dogs standing on the bank above. He has left a
widow and seven children to lament his loss.—lnverness
Paper.

CONSCIENCE MONEY.—A remarkable instance of this
kind has come to us from a most credible source. An indi-
vidual wrote a letter to the eexchequer-office, saying, that
although he had returned hisincome-tax correctly on his
ostensible business, yet that he was extensively engaged in
smuggling, and as his returns from that source were very
great, he had it on his conscience not to have made any
return of that, and he therefore enclosed as the amount of
three years' tax, fourteen thousand pounds ! Every effort
has been made to discover the conscientious contrabandist,
but hitherto without effect. This fact may be relied on.—
Arges.

DISGUSTING EXHIBITION.—The following extraordinary
notice has been pretty plentifully posted on the walls of the
town (Nottingham) during the past week :--John Gillabrand,
the celebrated rat-catcher, from Manchester, has been
matched for £25 a side, against Mrs. Smith, of London,
(the wife of Mr. James Smith, the noted rat-catcher) to
worry thirty rats within the time of Mrs. Smith worrying
fifteen, both of them to have their hands tied behind, on
Easter Monday, 1845, at Mr. Quinton's, Five-alley, sign of
the Grey Horse, Pierrepoint• street, New Sueinton." To
the cerdit of the authorities, we understand that this disgust-
ing exhibition was not suffered to take place.—Nottinyhant

TILE BEDFORDSHIRE MunnEnEus.—Sarali Dazeley,who,
on the 24th of March, was found guilty, by the Coroner's
jury, of the wilful murder of William Dazeley, her second
husband, at Wrestlingworth, Derbyshire, was brought up
again on Friday, charged with the murder of her first hus-
band and child, who had been exhumed in consequence of
Strong suspicion against the prisoner. In the case of her
first husband the jury found the following verdict :—" That
Simeon Mead died on the 4th of June, after an illness of six
days ; but that there was no evidence to show whether his
death was caused by natural causes or otherwise." The in-
quiry relative to the child terminated with the jury deliver-
ing a verdict as follows :—" That the deceased, Jonas Mead,
died from the effects of arsenic, administered to him with a
guilty knowledge by his mother, Sarah Dazeley."

TIIE FACTORIES BILL.--On Thursday evening a meeting
was held in Hope-street (Independent) chapel, Sir William
Lowthrop in the chair, for the purpose of opposing the go-
vernment measure for the regulation of factories. The
resolutions were moved and seconded by the various dissent-
ing preachers—Wesleyan, Indepehdent, Baptist, Unitarian,
&c. A Mr. Thompson, the " minister "of a Baptist chapel
in Salthouse-lane, declared, in the presence of the chairman
—a magistrate, be it remembered,—l, for one, I confess it,
will resist it (the government measure) EVEN UNTO BLOOD !"
On the proposition of the petition, Mr. West, a chartist,
moved an amended petition, and spoke in its favour, but
from that time the confusion that prevailed baffled all de-
scription; every species of noise and vociferation from the
two parties filled the chapel. The original petition was
declared carried, and after a regular row and three cheers
for the charter, the
" house of prayer was deserted.--
