GLASGOW.  We regret to state that the child whom we formerly , mentioned as having been ridden over on Saturday latt by , a gentleman's carriage in Cowcaddens, died on Tuesday of the injuries he had received. Suicide through Intoxication.—During the passage of the Dumbarton Castle steam-boat, which left Dumbarton on Monday at six o'clock rat., a young man, apparently about 24 or 26 years of age, and dressed in a moleskin jacket and trousers, like a mechanic or boiler-maker just left his work, was observed to be much the worse of drink. After dancing, and trying to jump Jim Crow and the Polka, in the steerage and on deck, be went behind the paddle-box, and, after a few gestures, deliberately jumped overboard. He had previously been all fun and good nature during the passage, and the boat was near White Inch when he threw himself lute the water. Captain Wilson immediately backed the vessel, lowered the small boat where the bonnet was floating, and did all he could to save him, tut to no effect, as he never came to the surface. There was no one on board knew anything of him except one person, and it did not seem he knew much, or if he did, he did not tell it, only that he wrought in a foundry in Greenock. SOIREE AND Pnesesranou.—On Tuesday evening, sth inst., the pupils attending the Garnet-hill Seminary, Riding School Buildings, Cambridge Street, held their second soiree in honour of their respected teacher. The chair was ably occupied by Dr. Forman, To wnhead. After a service of most excellent tea, several of the pupils attending the more advanced classes delivered various extracts in a manner calculated to reflect the highest credit on themselves and their teacher. After the first service of fruit, Master Robert Andrews, son of the late Dr. J. Andrews, in name of himself and fellow-students, presented Mr. M'Lachlan with an elegant rosewood writing-desk, having silver mounted appendages, bearing the following inscription Presented to Mr. H. G. M'Lachlan, by his pupils, as a mark of their gratitude and esteem, May 5, 1846." The present was received sith much feeling by the master, who replied in a nevl mid cli tate spvcA. The whole evening was spent with the utmost harmony,  vari Abenie..l) ............ 151,..tee1.we :VW I:lei.Ceatet I) • WWI Gianni J kki..tut asni Cheer On.
