On Wednesday Alderman Salomons sent a fellow named Thoroughgpod to prison for three months with hard labour , for having beaten his wife , and torn alarge quantity of lair from her heaS , so ari to teav & thep ©<» yotrngrcroature lalf bald . " I have n <* wisi ^ ' she said , ¦ ' » to hart him ; God knows ; and I will , say that there is not » better husband when it is what 1 call right ; with him , but that is now only from Sunday till Monday' morning ; " Alderman Salomons : What do : mean by what you call right with him ?

At all'Hours of the night , as well as * day , did they ¦ povti into the house , and as "the only entrance was through the room in which she and her children Blopt , the intrusion was quite intolerable , and , on account of her' endeavour to
remedy the evil , her lodger showed the greatest readiness to swear that she had already half murdered hiiri , proceeding 1 so far as to summOnfl her' to appear at Guildhall on Monday . When there ; matters took another turn . The Lord Mayor at onco sent down one of the Maneion-houeo officers to clear the poor woman ' s housoof the multitude , but the Complainant outran the constable ; and , having given notice to those who filled his apartment , -they rapidly disappeared from the pro noises , which fibon presented a vary differonfc appoaranoe , and the poor woman sat down with her family to a comfbrtablo dinner , provided at the expenflO oftho 'benevolent chief magistrate .

A Go-A-Head American, A Mr. Wise, Propos...
A go-a-head American , a Mr . Wise , proposes to take advantage of an air-current from west to east , and establish a line of balloons between the United States and Europe . The difficulties of the project are met -with a boldness which nothing turns back . Indeed one little difficulty is , that the balloon-train cannot turn back . The aerial locomotives cannot , of course , return by the same route—but Mr . Wise thinks nothing of an obstacle like this—they can go forward , and return to their starting-point by running clean round the world ! The arrangements are so far advanced , that Mr . Wise has even settled the fares , "He undertakes , " says the Builder , " to circumaeronaut the globe for 3000 dollars eaoh trip . " The Atheneeum wonders tbat some enterprising American has not effected the passage of the Atlantic by relays of sea-serpents .
As the wife . and daughter of Mr . Bunting , a master-plumber of Norwich , were sitting in their apartment a few days ago , the floor suddenly opened , and they fell into a pit twenty , seven , feet deep . A man , who was lowered with a rope to their aid , found Mrs . Bunting in a state of insensibility , buried in mud . She was drawn up safe , but , in attempting to extricate the daughter , the man himself sunk in mud to the depth of five feet . Another man was therefore lowered , who rescued the daughter and the first man " also , in a state of insensibility . The cause of the occurrence is enveloped in mystery , except that it has long been inown that there are in the neighbourhood extensive covered caverns and pits of u nknown origin and purpose , and it is supposed that the earth at the top of one of these had given way under the apartment , and hence the accident .
Three men were killed on the premises of a chemist in Norwich on Friday , by an explosion of naphtha , which , contrary to express order , one of tho unfortunate deceased was pouring from a large vessel into a smaller one by the light of a candle . The sailor whose lucky fortune in becoming the sudden possessor of property amounting to ( iOfiQQl . kns been noted in the papers , is a Scotchman niuned Thomas Black , and has lately been doing duty as a petty officer on board her Majesty ' s ship Leander ,. lying in Plymouth Sound . It appears that he is connected with a highly respectable family in Perthshire , was well educated , und intended by his pnrents
for one of the learned professions . Seventeen years ago , however , he ran from homel and entered the naval sorvieo , doing duty as a common sailor , and , having acquired sonio reputation as a mariner , he was advanced to tho rank of a petty officer . This was his position when , about nine months ago , an advertisement appeared in tho Times , informing Thomas Bluck , if he were still alive , that by communicating with certain parties therein unmed ho would hem- of something very considerably to his advantage . Thomas Black , however , did not read the Times , and for months remained in ignorance of the " something , " which hit * next of kin were beginning to be afraid they would bo obliged to appropriate
to their own use and benefit . Luckily for Black , however , he one day entered into conversation witli a footman , whom ho met accidentally at the Cove of Cork , and who had heard from another servant some particulars touching tho lost heir to the Perthshire estates . The result was , that Black inude his ftxistettco known in the proper quarter , and ullor tho lap . se of a few months his claims wero reoogtfised , and ho succeeded in obtaining his discharge from naval servitude , on tho arrival of the Lennder at tho port of 1 'lymonth from Now York , which took place a few ( lays ago . Tho lucky sailor and his friend , Lioutenunt Barnard . H . N ., are now in Scotland , adjusting tho preliminaries .
