WILLIAM BRASS. " BENJAMIN BROWN; f What is thus printed and circulated speaks the min"e the city upon the subject, and, if we are not mistaken? 't" .; day is not far distant when a strict inquiry will be ulstl°L tutcd into the management, not only of the affair, but other matters connected with it, which we shall take sue' pains to make public. To those gentlemen who supported the illornig vet tscr upon the occasion alluded to, we hereby return Or, cordial acknowledgments. They have our warmest thanks; and with regard to our opponents, we again repeat to c and every one of them, that before six months have pass' over their heads—  " Flebit, et insignis tota Cantatibur urbe."  Sir Robert Peel and family left Paris on Friday last' for London. Lord Lyndhurst's departure was fixed for Thursday next. A few days ago, Mr. Inett, of Barmby Moor, sent the following extraordinary present to his sister, at Melton Mowbray :—A turnip grown upon his own f:trtn (hollowed, out), containing half a dozen pigeons, two braces of part' ridges, and a hare.—Doncaster Gazctle. For more than forty years the well-known Hiss Whitehead has been long recognized in the Metropolis 95,!' very eccentric character. This lady died suddenly last wee' The notoriety of this unfortunate individual emanated from a cause which has excited the sympathy and compassion °I the feeling-hearted part of the community. At an earlY period of life a beloved brother, who held a highly respell' sible situation in the Bank of England, transgressed the lilwfr of his country by committing forgery : and, notwithstanding the most strenuous exertions in his behalf, by personees in high power at that time, the unhappy man suffered the es' trenie penalty of the law at Newgate. His connexions, vvil(' moved in the first class of society, were plunged into tbie most poignant affliction, as may be easily imagined, an after the lamentable event, left the Metropolis, with the exception of the sister whose sudden dissolution has .iult occurred. Since the fatal day of her unfortunate brother?. ignominious exit from the world, she had been in the habit • of visiting the Bank almost daily, and loitering about the immediate neighbourhood. Her melancholy story beil4 well known, she attracted the attention of many of the (ner" chants and bankers on 'Change, and, as her means were reduced to comparative poverty after her brother's death, thcf.. kindly administered to her necessities. She became marked person about town, owing to the singularity of bed appearance since the event which broke her peace of ni,n. ind and happiness for ever. She was accustomed to be habde in very deep old fashioned mourning. She was never in --a instance known to deviate from tis style of dress; and her heart was so completely stricken that, when young interesting, she rejected all advances to change her on Sat tion in life. Her habits were remarkably secluded, ond s seldom or never entered into social society or conversatioins At the time of her death she lodged in Mason-street, °,„ Kent-road, and it was known that, whilst there, sho quently performed the melancholy office of visiting her grog, ther's grave in Greenwich church-yard.

Laferey Francis Amyett Newman, of the Prnc•off Charlotte, was taken ill in the morning, but refused takol _e any medicine. Subsequently the symptoms resembled those of incipient cholera, and Assistant-Surgeon Livesq gum him the remedies usually applied in such. cases ; but of r, evening he was found in a dying state, and shortly i!tred wards expired. It appeared, from the evidence prod, cote before the Coroner on Monday, that in consequence 0; the CIO' suspicion on the part of Mr. Livesay that the cause o etdbeil unfortunate officer's violent death might have proaocrse_pie, from poison, the body was opened, and a quantity of weighing about one drachm, was found in the stomaeb• __d his desk some letters were found written by the deceased in one of which (addressed to his brother) he confesses he he had taken arsenic ; and in another it is stated that°oo could withstand the temptation of happiness in all_ this world no longer, and that therefore he hastened to free. world of a person no longer of any use to society or t?cnt:`_L self.
