THE PROTECTOR UMBRELLA.—The novelty of this in-
vention is, that by unscrewing the handle the umbrella is
fastened so as to prevent its being used by any person but
the owner.

crop, be fit for use early in June, and of superior quality
to those sown in Spring, and would be found an excellent
substitute for the potato.
While the labourers were employed digging a reservoir
in connection with the railway station at Holyhead, they

police finding the garments next morning, smelled a mur-
der, until they found the naked man among the swine.
BlLBERRlES.—Bilberries have been more plentiful this
year than they were ever known to be. Upon the moors
of North Dean, Yorkshire, gangs of women and children
of sixty and 100 each have frequently been seen gathering
this wild fruit.

It is the intention of the Lords of the Treasury to place

sington estate of the Corporation of Doncaster.

EXTRAORDINARY PEDESTRIANISM.—OIIe of the most
extraordinary pedestrian performances ever attempted,
that of walking twenty miles in three hours, was accom-
plished on Thursday. on a measured mile near Hounslow,
by a young man named Westhall. A large number of
the aristocracy were present.
On Sunday last, a man who was driving an omnibus in
London, suddenly dropped dead while his horses were
proceeding at a rapid rate ; but luckily a passenger who
was on the box seized the reins, and thus probably pre-
vented a serious accident to the carriage and those whom
it was conveying.

Many of the metropolitan guardians of the poor are in-
clined to establish model lodging-houses, with a view to
improve the condition of the poor, and to diminish the
poor-rates ; and in the parish of St. Martin-in-the-Fields
application is about to be made to the ratepayers, for
power to commence the erection of one of these houses.
Muanza.—On Saturday week George Watson and
Thomas Reid, employed at the Birtley iron-works, had
some angry words, during which Watson raised a bar of
iron and struck Reid on the head, which laid his skull
open. He expired in a few minutes. Watson has been
committed for trial.

The Aberdeen Journal mentions that, a few days since,
a woman laden with a creel of peats, who was returning
home to the farm of Letterewe, accidentally fell, and the
weight of her burden kept her down, so that she was
strangled, and was found dead by some persons who
subsequently went in search of her.
At Cumberland Assizes, Joseph Todd, the man who
shot Mr. Jackson, a farmer, through the heart, at Pen-
rith, as detailed in our last, was acquitted, upon the
grounds that he was labouring under a fit of jealous
frenzy at the time, that the shot was intended for another,
and that the gun might have gone off accidentally.
Mr. Thorneycroft, the first mayor of the newly-incor-

buted to poor widows and other poor persons.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer stated on Monday
night, in the House of Commons, that the Earl of Shel-
burne (son of the Marquis of Lansdowne), having resigned
his appointment as a lord of the Treasury, the government
had determined, in compliance with the recommendation
of the committee on expenditure, that the vacancy should
not be filled up.
KNOWING BETTER THAN THE DOCTOR.--A poor Irish-
man called fur relief at St. Peter's Hospital, Bristol, a
few days ago. and complained of being ill ' • when the nurse
offered him some physic, but Pat said he di not want it.
The nurse declared that he did, for the doctor said so.
" Arra, whist," was the reply, " I know better than the
doctor ; 'tisn't physic I want at all, but sausages and lay."
Lieutenant Munro was on Tuesday liberated from New-
gate. Before his release an application was made to Mr.
Baron Alderson at chambers for a summons to be directed
to the Governor of Newgate, to show why he refused to
give up the prisoner to certain sheriffs' officers who hela
an execution against him, but the learned judge refused
the application, and the debt was subsequently settled.
THE LATE ANABAPTISM AT WINCHESTER. —The
Guardian states that the Rev. C. J. Proby, Rector of
St. Peter Colebrook, has been suspended from all clerical
functions in the Church of England. It appears that Mr.
Brand, the Baptist minister, who rebaptised him, is an
old and intimate friend of Mr. Proby both in India and
at home.

SUMMARY PUNISHMENT.—An effectual means for pre-
venting depredations has been adopted in one of the Lon-
don parks. Any person who plucks a tree (I) or a flower
is made to draw the roller for a certain time, or to give
his name and appear before the magistrate. The former
is generally preferred ; but as it subjects the individual to
the laughter of all the lookers-on, it is not liked.
An application to the postmaster-general has been nu-
merously signed at Peterborough, requesting the trans-
mission of letters from Hull, Wakefield, Manchester,
Yarmouth, and other places (chiefly in the north) may be
so arranged that they be not first taken to London! which
makes it a two days' post, and causes much loss and in-
convenience.

DECAPITATION.—On Saturday last a melancholy and
fatal accident occurred at the steam saw-mill, Nairn. It
appears that the workmen were engaged in the immediate
vicinity of the saw, when one of them stooped down, for
the purpose, it is thought, of adjusting the log; but in
doing so his shoulders came in contact with the saw, which
instantly decapitated him—completely severing his head
from his body.—Elgin Courier.
A single woman, named Ann Wright, of Birch-row,
Radford, aged 29, a silk-winder, has committed suicide
under the following circumstances :—She fancied a Wes-
leyan minister preaching in Nottingham had fallen in love
with her, though he had never spoken to her. On being,
after considerable reasoning, convinced by her friends that
there was no foundation for such an idea, she retired to
her bedroom and cut her throat with her fathor's razor.

During a heavy storm of thunder and lightning, last
week, the dwelling-house of Mr. Sidford of Bishopstone,
was struck by the electric fluid, which forced two of the
grates out of their places, passed round one of the rooms,
melting the bell-wires, and proceeded up the chimney,
in which it exploded, wholly demolishing that portion of
the building. At Fovant, so heavy was the ruin, that the
water was three feet deep in the road.
On Friday a young man, named William Waldron, died
at Kensington, London, under the effects of cholera.
Mr. Wakley (coroner) said that the case was one of de-
cided cholera, and considering the dampness of the pre-
sent season, it would be advisable for persons to take a
great deal of spice,—for instance, a good deal of cayenne
pepper. He did not believe that cholera was contagious,
and he considered that if the stomach be well supplied
with wholesome food, it will not be susceptible to cholera.
SIR TATTON SY-RES.—At Guildford assizes, on Satur-
day, this celebrated race-borne was the subject of an ac-
tion. The plaintiff was Mr. Kennedy, a gentleman of
fortune, and the defendant was Mr. Clark, a gentleman
who had been long acquainted with the. turf. In 1847,
the plaintiff purchased the horse for £1,350, and in June,
in this year, the parties to the action met, and had some
talk about it, from which the defendant imagined that he
had bought the horse. He removed him from the plain-
tiff's stables, and entered him as his own horse at Hamp-
ton races. The plaintiff tried to get the horse back, but
failing in that, brought the present action for damages.
The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff—damages £B5O.
CA UTION.—A CLERICAL IMPOSTOR.—The Glasgow
Examiner, of Saturday, gives details of the mode in
which " a grave-looking man, who describes himself as a
preacher from Jamaica," has been duping the citizens of
Glasgow. "He appeared to have African blood in his
veins, was somewhere about forty years of age, and wore
a hat of the most approved Episcopalian form, and pre-
sented all the outward appearance of a minister of the
Gospel." He introduced himself to several gentlemen in
Glasgow, and other introductions followed. He preached,
prayed. and collected money, pretending it was for a
school in Jamaica; but it appears that the cash which he
obtained by day be spent amongst the most disreputable
characters in the evening, for which purpose he disguised
himself by putting on different attire.
DREADFUL COLLIERY EXPLOSION.—FOURTEEN LIVES
LOST.—On Tuesday morning last, a lamentable explosion
took place at Murton colliery, about nine miles from
Durham. The catastrophe occurred soon after noon, in
the " Polka" pit, and is ascribed to what is called a
" blower," or accumulation of foul air, which had been
ignited by some of the candles used by the workmen.
After the report of the explosion was heard upwards of
sixty men and boys who had been working in the same
district of the pit in which it took place, but further from
the mouth of the shaft, collected together, and endea-
voured to reach the mouth of the pit. They finally effec-
ted their escape. The explosion was of a violent nature.
The body of a boy named Haddock, who was employed
close to a man named Noble, (also killed,) was found 40
or 50 yards from the body of the latter. In all fourteen
lost their lives, four only by the explosion, and ten by the
effects of the after-damp. ThrEe horses were also killed.
The pit appeared to be perfectly safe just before, and was
well ventilated. The depth of the part where the explo-
sion took place is 220 fathoms, The pit was but slightly
damaged.

THREE CHILDREN AT A BIRTH.—A poor woman,
named Hapsorri, rOsiditig at 50, Little George-street,
Hampstead-road, Londstai, has been delivered of three
children c all are going on as well as can be expected.
A SMART REPROOF FOR A JURY.—During the Dur-
ham Assizes, a charge was preferred against a prisoner for
having assaulted a policeman at Winlaton, with intent to
do him grievous bodily harm. The jury returned a ver-
dict of guilty of a common assault. Mr. Justice Cress-
well, in sentencing the prisoner, said, " He had no doubt
the jury had returned such a verdict as they were bound
to return, in the exercise of such talents as God had
blessed them with !"

LIGHTING THE NEW HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.—OR
Thursday night experiments for the purpose of testing a
new system of gas burners, with which it is proposed to
light the interior of the new houses of Parliament, were
made in Trafalgar-square. A branch, containing eight
burners, for consuming common gas, was introduced into
the reflector at the south east corner of the square, and
which threw a most brilliant light, by which small print
could be read at forty paces.
BUTTER WELL PRESERVED.—Last week, while some
men were digging in a mossy ground on the farm of
Achilty, belonging to Mr. Ross of Kinnahaird, they dis-
covered, about three feet under ground, a cask, one-half
of which was quite sound, and found to contain a quantity
of butter. Some parties conjecture that it was hidden
during the rebellion of 1745, by some cautious person,
alarmed at the depredations then committed by the scat-
tered forces.—lnverness Courier.

AN OPEN GAOL.—A spectacle of rare occurrence in
these dangerous times was presented to the inhabitants of
Tretford on Saturday. The keeper of the Borough Gaol
suspended a white flag from the topmost window of the
prison-house, and, throwing open all the doors, afforded
an opportunity to those whose feelings might be too ten.
der to view the victims of vice and crime in the solitary
cell, to inspect the interior of the place without an inha-
bitant.

ENGLISH AND IRISH REAPERS.—III some parts of the
country a feeling of jealousy amounting to violence has
sprung up between these parties, and the Irish have been
driven away. At Hatfield, an Englishman, named Ed-
ward Swain, was ferociously killed by one of a party of
Irish, whilst sitting in a public-house with a number of
companions, but taking no part in a disturbance between
the native and strange reapers. At Doncaster the disputes
prevailed for a week.
EXTRAORDINARY CASE.—A few weeks ago, when the
4th Royal Irish Dragoon Guards were stationed at Not-
tingham Barracks, two of the privates quarrelled, and one
bit the other in the finger. The wound festered, and at
length the man's whole body became affected, the bones,
denuded of flesh, protruding through the skin. The suf-
ferer lingered until Monday, when be was relieved by
death. The case has excited great interest in a medical
point of view.
The Government have very wisely determined to take
early precautions to prevent the cholera from spreading to
our shores, in the event of any case occurring in ships
afloat. They have ordered the Benbow and Devonshire,
old line-of battle-ships, to be immediately prepared as
hospital-ships, to receive Cholera patients from merchant-
vessels ; and another ship, the Iphigenia, is also to be
fitted as a cholera hospital-ship, should necessity require
additional accommodation.

MELANCHOLY OCCURRENCE.—Thomas Hall, a youth
of nineteen, is in custody at Nottingham, charged with
having wounded, with intent to murder, his sweetheart,
Francis Green, by whom he had had a child, by discharg-
ing a pistol at her. The statement of the prisoner is, that
he purchased the pistol from a man in the street, and, not
knowing that it was loaded, cocked and snapped it at the
young woman, when it exploded, wounding her in the
neck. The unfortunate young woman now lies in the
hospital in a very dangerous state, the ball not having at
present been extracted.
EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE.—A few days since, a la-
bourer fell down a shaft of the tunnel at Retford, 130 feet
deep. Of course those who saw the accident naturally
concluded that the unfortunate man must have been
dashed to pieces, but, singular as it may seem, he fell into
the sump hole, in which was about six feet of water, and
did himself but little harm ! When he fell he was sense-
less, but was at once rescued from a " watery grave," by
two men, who were on the spot at the time. Since then,
the man has resumed his wonted employment, and seems
none the worse for his perilous descent.
A DINNER IN THE THAMES.—A young man named
Coombs, having provided himself with some patent ap-
paratus, on Friday, undertook to light a fire and cook and
eat a dinner in the Thames, the possibility of which
seemed a matter of doubt to many spectators. Having
moored a kind of floating teatray out in deep water, near
the Chain-pier, Chelsea, he plunged into the stream, pro- '
ceeded to light his fire and cook his dinner, which he not
only accomplished with great ease, but also ate it with
great gusto, to the astonishment of upwards of 3,000
persons. More than an hour had elapsed ere be had pre-
pared and taken his coffee, after which he floated to the
surface, amidst the plaudits of all assembled.
DIVORCE.—The divorce bill of Miss Field, or rather
Mrs. Brown, has been thrown out of the House of Lords.
Miss Field, who by the death of her father was possessed
of about £40,000 in money, and an income of £1,200 per
annum, and who will be mistress of twice as much at the
death of her brother, was, with the latter, under the care
of a Mr. Brown, she being seventeen years old and he
fifty-two. He persuaded her, by threats and otherwise,
to marry him, and he published false banns, for which of-
fence he is now undergoing imprisonment. The result of
the Lords' decision is, that the girl wall be handed over
to her husband the moment his term of imprisonment
expires, and he will become master of her and her pro-
perty.
EXECUTION.—At Chelmsford, on Monday, Mary May,
who was convicted at the last Essex Assizes of the murder
of her brother at Wix, by poisoning him with arsenic, for
the purpose of obtaining the allowance from a burial club
at Harwich, in which she had entered his name without
his knowledge, was executed in front of the county gaol.
After her condemnation the miserable woman, who was
38 years of age, formed the design of starving herself to
death, and for a time obstinately refused to take any food, '
but hunger at length subdued her, and since then she has
taken her meals regularly, and slept soundly, sullenly
denying her guilt, and treating her fate as a matter of
indifference. Strong suspicion was excited that the un-
happy woman poisoned several of her children.
AN ARTFUL ROBBERY.—On Saturday evening, about
eleven o'clock, a very artful robbery was committed in
the shop of Mr. David Habbershaw, grocer, Waterhouse-
lane. It appears that while Mr. and Mrs. Habbershaw
were in the shop attending to some of their customers, a
man rushed in crying out for protection, pursued by four
men, all of whom followed him into the shop and pre-
tended that they were quarelling with him. They all ap-
peared extremely violent, swearing that they would have
the man out of the shop. A scuffle ensued, and Mr. and
Mrs. Habbershaw interfered in behalf of the man who
was assailed. Ultimately, however, they all went into
the street, and, in a short time afterwards, Mrs. Habber-
shaw, to her extreme astonishment, found that her pocket
had been picked of her purse containing £3 and two half
sovereigns.—Hull Packet.
ONE OF THE GOVERNESS ADVERTISING GANG.—At
Marlborough-street on Wednesday, John Smith, as he
calls himself, but whose real name is Whiting, son of a
deceased auctioneer of Bury St. Edmunds, was brought
up, charged with felony, and with having for a length of
time gone about representing himself to be Lord Alfred
Hervey, M. P. for Brighton. From communications
made to the magistrate, it appeared that the prisoner for
about three years has been carrying on a system of fraud
and immorality to an incredible extent. At one time he I
was riding about town in a carriage with footmen and
coachmen, assuming the names of more than one noble-
man. A lady mentioned to Mr. Hardwicke that the pri-
soner had passed himself off to her as Lord George Ben-
tinck, and that she believed his representations from see-
ing his stylish carriage and servants. One part of the
prisoner's system appears to have been to reply to adver-
tisements for governess's situations ; and numerous ap-
pointments with young females were found in his posses-
sion. The prisoner was fully committed on two charges
of felony.
A COMICAL FOREMAN.—At Radnor Assizes, in the
trial of Thomas Watkins, charged with stealing a pair of
hames, the property of Edward Bird, Mr. Allen replied
to the defence, by contending that if the prosecutor was
to be believed, he had never lent the harness to Powell,
and therefore the prisoner could not have borrowed them.
The foreman of the jury here arose and said, " It is im-
possible that he could have ploughed without them."—
Mr. Allen resumed, but it was evident that his observa-
tions were not attended to by the jury, for they were al-
ready busily engaged in consultation. In the midst of
the learned gentleman's address, the foreman again in-
terrupted him by saying, " There ! we have had enough
o'that ! we shanna find him guilty !" For a moment the
learned gentleman looked confounded—he, however, took
the hint, and in a few words concluded. His lordship
then summed up the evidence, and the jury, without a
moment's hesitation said, " We find a verdict that the
prisoner borrowed 'em."—The judge : Is the prisoner
guilty or not guilty ?—The foreman : Not guilty, my
lord. After the lapse of a few minutes, he again ad-
dressed
the court by saying, Have you done with us, my
lord ?—The judge : Yes, the jury are discharged, and the
county thank them for their services.—The foreman : Oh !
but I beg your pardon, your honour, a'nt there no pay ?
(Laughter.)—His lordship did not reply.—The foreman
(with indignation) : By God, it's a shabby consarn ! I'll
be d—d if I ever come here again.—The court then
rose, amid much laughter, the business being concluded.
PAYNE'S TIMBER-PRESERVING PROCESS.—A second
most successful experiment, to test the uninflammability
of wood prepared by Payne's process, took place a few
days since, at Westminster, in the presence of the Lord
Mayor ; the Speaker of the House of -Commons ; Lord
Dudley Stuart, M.P. ; Lord Ebrington, M.P. ; and many
scientific gentlemen. The experiment consisted in expo-
sing to the agency of flame two wooden cottages of similar
dimensions, the one Paynized, the other unprepared.
In the interior of each, and simultaneously, about 7 or
8 lbs. of dry shavings were ignited. The Paynized struc-
ture resisted this severe ordeal three several times, being
merely charred at the termination of the trial. That un-
prepared was consumed to the water's edge by the first
charge, during the time these ineffectual attempts were
being made to destroy the other. The mode here presen-
ted of preserving life and property from fire, is worthy of
' consideration. The cities of Liverpool, Manchester, and
other great centres of population, are much interested in
the subject. Apart from the accidents to which property
is always subjected from fire, we observe that in various
parts of the world, especially in the West Indian planta-
tions, where the towns and factories often consist 'entirely
of wood, incendiaries have lately succeeded in the wilful
destruction of valuable property. An additional reason
may therefore be urged in favour of a careful investigation
of the matter by the authorities, by the Fire Insurance
Companies, and by the public. The qualities of Paynized
timber to resist the destructive agencies of the dry rot,
of the white ant, and even of the augur worm. and its
• applicability to the general purposes of railway construc-
tion, are already well knawa,

August 22, 1848.

At the Carlisle Assizes, on Thursday, J. Murray, aged
26, was found guilty of bigamy, having married Martha
Sanderson, his first wife, whom he had married only three
years previously, being still alive. The ease was remark-
able as showing the facilities afforded by the Scotch log,
for what is commonly called Scotch marriages, for deeeP'
tion. The first marriage was celebrated by he landlord
of a public-house, the second by a toll-beeper. The ee"
remony consisting only in their declaring themselves to be
man and wife in the presence of a third party. The pri-
soner was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment and
hard labour.
Loss OF THREE LIVES.-011 Monday, the Isleworth
regatta was held on the Thames. At a ball at the Water"
men's Arms were three young men, named Edward Bol-
ton, aged 22, William Smith, 19, William Pendry, 25,
four others named Mancey, Wicker, Baylis, and Bolton's
younger brother of the beforementioned Edward Bolton.
Between four and five o'clock these young men decided
upon having a row up the river before going to work, and
for that purpose unloosed a skiff that was made fast to a
barge moored off Ashby's cement works. They had pro'
ceeded up the river and neared the railway bridge, vibe°
William Smith stood up in the boat, and the others coo'
menced rocking the boat. This caused her to ship s
quantity of water; she swayed on one side, and instantl
turned bottom upwards, immersing the whole party in
feet of water, it then being the top of the tide. All thee
men could swim except Pendry and Wicker, who haa..'.l
wooden leg, and Smith was a noted swimmer. Several
boats with drags were soon on the spot. In the mean bens
Mancey, who had got to shore safe, seeing that
Wicker'
n'.
the one-legged man, must sink if not assisted, nobly swan
out and brought him to shore, as he also did the younger
Bolton. The three first mentioned young men were nu"
fortunately drowned.
PALEY'S NATURAL THEOLOGY.—A startling article'
under the signature of `•Verax," appears in the current
number of the Athenceum, charging Dr. Paley as a Pt
giarist, and that his celebrated treatise on " Natural
Theology," is nothing more than a copy of the writings o
a Dutchman, who flourished about one hundred yearsbefore our author. " Verax" says, and we think truly'
" that there is not probably one out of a thousand of Dr.
Paley's readers who does not believe the treatise on-`Na"
turn Theology' to have been entirely suggested by r_ and
carved out of the natural sources of Dr. P • 's mind
'
that he had collected all the materials, and arranged nr the
according to his own ideas of method, and that he was to
„
the fullest sense of the words an original thinker au'
illustrator ofthis department of human knowledge." In
supi,ort of the charge several parallel extracts from both
works are given. To show further the connexion betweea
" Chamberlayne's Christian Philosopher" and " Paley's
Natural Theology" the plan of both publications is give,°
in parallel columns. They are almost complete in their
identity, and prove how closely Paley has followed the
Dutch philosopher. There can be no doubt that the as'
parsions here cast upon the doctor's reputation will cause
much literary excitement.
EXTRAORDINARY CREDULITY.—A few weeks ago, I'
gang of gypsies took up their abode on Osmotherlei
Common (North Riding of Yorkshire) ; and George Leof'
a man near seventy-eight years of age, who resides on!
small farm belonging to R. Haynes, Esq., and which'
situated just in the locality where those insidious gentry
had " pitched their tents," has had the misfortune to he'
come the dupe of their base stratagems. It appears thl4
a female belonging to this party, taking advantage of do
old man's credulity, persuaded him that a " pot of gold,
containing £7OOO, was hid in one of his fields ; and to
order that he might become the possessor of this valuable
treasure, it was requisite for him to advance £4O. fluted
with joy at the idea of becoming a " gentleman" it'
declining days, the old man used every effort to get
amount collected together. Not being able to raise le°"-
than £l7 10s. he began to despair of success; but the
female, ever anxious to promote the welfare of her fellow;
creatures, and taking into consideration the poverty of
old man, finally agreed that by having the money delivere;
up to her, she would carry out the process. After th_
agreement to these arrangements, it was proposed that the
gypsy female and her dupe should meet in the field at eiti
hour wham the rest of mankind had retired to rest, a°
then the old man should take possession of his hidden°
treasure. Punctual to the appointed time, the old roLe.,''t
took his spade and pickaxe, and repaired to the field ;°"
as for his gypsy " friend," her harvest was finished. J',l
those " stray birds" which visit us in the pleasant nion,ina
of summer, and then take their departure for a te'of
genial clime, she had taken her flight with the Nvings„-a
the morning, leaving the old man to declare his loss, an
to mourn over his folly.
A LONDON SEWER.—A general meeting of he,,irnor;
jesty's justices and commissioners of sewers was
llow
Thursday, Lord Morpeth in the chair, when the la": of
ing startling fact came out. The clerk read the ropory
ent
the surveyor on an examination of the sewers in thc
dad
and Surrey district. It said When we had procee
to the man-hole, about 40 feet from the side
opposite No. 12, Friar-street, Blackfriar's-road„ the slut
lamp we were provided with went out; the air was s°'e
as to be incapable of supporting combustion. We wet.
deterred from again lighting it, as, had we made the ,t
tempt, an explosion must inevitably have occurred.
this point, myself, the superintendent of the flushera'r,,
