GOSSIP ABOUT ROYAL MARRIAGES ABROAD. —Several persons who have resided during the last winter at Vienna, assert that the conversation in the various salons of that capital turns a good deal on the approaching marriage of the Archduchess Maria Theresa Isabella, whose hand has been sought by several princes. There was at first some talk of the Hereditary PEnce of Bavaria, who went to Vienna, but unsuccessfully ; then of the Hereditary Prince of Russia, who met the young Princess at Toplitz, without making any impression on her heart; then of King Otho, of Greece, who seems inclined shortly to return to Germany. The Duke of Orleans has also been spoken of. Not only the Princess Theresa, but her father, Prince Charles, and the Emperor also, were opposed to the union with the Czarovitch, and they look upon the Greek kingdom as scarcely consolidated yet. Prince Charles is said to have observed that his daughter should not be sacrificed to polical objects, and that her choice should remain free. The Archduchess is between nineteen and tweenty years of age, very pretty, simple in her manners, and well brought up. Of all the Princes of the house of Austria Prince Charles is least a slave to etiquette, he even enters the hotels near Vienna accompanied by his daughter, and delights in conversation with the middling classes.—French Paper. The lambing-down of the Southdown flocks is now nearly over, and we are sorry to learn that the season has been attended with great losses. The clip of wool this year must consequently be very light.—Bath Herald. A man, in the employment of his Grace the Duke of Portland, has been missing ever since the day before Good Friday, and the most diligent search and inquiry have been NhVaadrs°nPo.

Among the many strange modes of suicide we have had to record, the following is not the least extraordinary. A man living at Marre, in the Alayenne: being jilted by a young woman who had promised him marriage, deliberately heated an oven, crept into it, and closed the door. Life was no doubt very quickly extinct, though he seems to have made one effort to save it, as his head was found turned towards the door._ French Paper. The boat Lady Chalmers, of Broadsea, left Fraserburgh, several weeks ago, deeply laden with cod fish and herrings, for the Frith of Forth. No accounts of her safety have reached home ; and from the state of the weather the day after she sailed, there is too much reason to fear that the crew, four in number, have perished.—Edinburgh Courant. Does Sir James Graham remember the declaration made by him at Hull in 1818, when elected Member for the town, that whenever he deserted the cause of the people ',may my right hand forget its cunning."—Hull Observer. Frederick Von Rautner, the eminent German Professor, whose " England in 1835" has occasioned so much controversy, is arrived in London, and we have heard already occupied on a new work.
