reach their destination on Saler*, the 22d.—.One
hundred and fifty men of the Lurgan Infantry, form-

have beard of taking place among the Yeomanry.—
The men were in high spirits at receiving the order."
The Balbriggan Corps of Yeomanry, ender the com-
mand of Captain 0. A. Hamilton, have volunteered to
serve wherever they may be required.
On Saturday last, the Tipperary Yeomanry Infantry,
under the command of Captain Joe. Evans, volunteered

Lord Byron, in the notes to his new Tragedy, 41 The
Two Foscari," just published, pays a high compliment
to Lady Morgan. whose " Italy" he styles a fearless
and excellent work. His Lordship also acknowledges a
curious coincidence between Lady Morgan and himself,
in their both having called Venice" Rome of the Ocean,"
though their works at the time were unknown to each
other.
EDINBURGH, Dec. IS.—On Friday night Madame
Catalani's first Concert, in the Assembly Rooms,
George-street, was crowded with a fashionable audi-
tory. We regret to learn that Madame Catalani is at
present indisposed.
A little before 12 last night, an alarm of fire was
raised at the head of the Pleasance, and a great blaze
of light appeared at the wiadows of a house there
situate. The engines were immediately brought to
the spot, and in less than half an hour the fire was
extinguished; so that very little mischief could have
been occasioned.
On Saturday afternoon, betwixt 5 and 6 o'clock, an
old woman in James-street, was burnt so dreadfully by
her clothes having accidently caught fire, that she
only survived about 5 minutes after the accident. It
is supposed she had been asleep when the fire had come
in contact with her clothes.
Yesterday week a stout young man, a painter, work-
ing at the College, fell from a height of two stories on
the Bag-stones, and alighted on his feet, which were
consequently much bruised and sprained, particularly
the heels and armlet He was carried home, and thoneh
enable to point a foot to the ground. he was perfectly
cured in three days, by the simple application of com-
pression and percussion.
The scatioldiag was yesterday so far removed from
the top of St. Paul's Cathedral, as to leave an unin-
terrupted view of the ball and cross, which now appear
reinstated in all their pristine beauty ; the gilding is
very splendid, and displays with great effect the
grandee' of the original design. particularly the
light and elegant truss supporters, so much and justly
admired ; it also tends, by ►he consequent strong
shadow, to make the numerous ornaments and leaves
perceptible, although so far removed from the eye.
which in the former could with difficulty be discerned;
