EJECTMENT.—A Bill is before Parliament for facilitating the recovery of possessions of tenements. By this Bill it is proposed that where a tenant or occupier of premises, the rent of which does not exceed 201. per annum, holds over the landlord may go before a Magistrate, who shall issue his warrant, directing the constable to assist in retakirg possession. If the landlord has not lawful right to possess:on, an action will lie ; but where he has lawfui title .3 pc ese=sion, no irregula.ity will make him a trespasser. The landlord, on getting possession, may remove the goods of the tenant, to whom notice of the place of removal must be then given. Where premises' are held at a higher rate than twenty pounds a-year, the landlord, on bringing an action of ejectment, may apply to a Judge for security for damage and costs. A most desperate attempt to commit an atrocious murder was made at the Bear inn, Wantage, on the night of Monday last. It appears that the servants retired to bed about eleven o'clock, and about a quarter past two one of the men, of the name of Poole, who slept in a room over the stable in the yard, left his bed, came through the yard, and went up to the bed-voom of the ostler, named Lamball ; the latter was asleep, when he was suddenly awoke, and found Poole in the act of stabbing him in the throat. Lamball immediately grappled with him, and succeeded in wrenching the weapon (a large carving knife) out of Poole's hand. Poole then shut the door of the room, ran down stairs, and made his escape. Lamball was able to leave his bed and go into the passage. The female servants were alarmed by his cries for assistance. Medical aid was immediately procured, when it was found he had received a slight wound in the throat, and a very severe and dangerous one in the pit of the stomach. He is now lying in a precarious state. No tidings have yet been heard of Poole. The cause of the act is supposed to be jealousy, as it seems that Poole had formed an attachment for one of the female servants, which was not encouraged on her part, and he imagined that Lamball was preferred before him.—Reading Mercury. Mr. Edward Fisher Langshawe is the new Master of the Ceremonies at Vauxhall Gardens, and by his urbanity of manners, bit's fair to become as great a favourite with the visitors of the " Royal property" as the late illustrious Simpson, He has, we hear, undertaken the office gratuitously, and is the same Gentleman who was in treaty for the lesseeship of Covent Garden Theatre last season.  FEMALE DaulDs.—Sunday evening the interment of a member of this venerable order took place at the Parish Church, Bolton. The ladies comprising this body seem to have caught the mania, and imitated in good style the different orders that wear insignia upon such occasions. They were all dressed in black gowns and sashes, each carrying a piece of evergreen. The four pall-bearers were attired in black silk gowns ; but the ne plus ultra has yet to be announced—one of the females carried a -scroll, and, to our astonishment, read at the grave side a funeral oration As might be supposed, the streets were crowded to witness so singular a scene.—Bolton Free Press.
