Dr. RALEIGH, the eminent Independent divine, of Kensington Chapel, died on Monday at the age of 63. __________ In the death of Detective-Sergeant HAYTON, London loses one of its most celebrated police officers. He was engaged in all the important cases in which the Bank of England has been concerned during the past 30 years. In discharge of his duty this officer has been to almost all prts of the habitable globe in pursuit of criminals. In a letter to the local Conservative agent at Alcester, South Warwickshire, the Marquis of Hertford writes: “We find ourselves obliged to quit Ragley for a time, not because of the disappointment attendant on the defeat of Lord YARMOUTH, great as it is, but because my income - reduced as it has been by the sad agricultural losses of so many of my tenants, the number of farms consequently thrown upon my hands, the building and rebuilding of Park Hall after the disastrous fire, and last, not least, but this unexpected contest - does not enable me to live there as hitherto without running into debt and embarrassing the estate. I think it wiser therefore, to reduce my household expenditure in time, while continuing such improvements as I hope may still benefit the property and enable me to employ nearly as much labour hitherto.” _______________ The Empress Eugenie and suite arrived at Capetown on Friday by the steamer German; all well. The Empress appeared to be greatly improved in health and spirits, though depressed at the actual time of her arrival. Throughout the passage from England she proved a good sailor, and was not absent from any of the meals. Passengers on board speak in warm terms of her Majesty’s urbanity, and particularly of her kindness towards children. She sailed for Natal on Tuesday. _____________ The death is announced of Colonel TEWART, of Glanton Hall, Northumberland. He saw service in India and China. _____________ Dr. KENEALY, lately M. P. for Stoke, and the well known advocate of the Tichborne Claimant, died on Friday in London. He was ill before his recent election contest, but he persisted in fighting it through himself, and he actually conducted the canvass and attended meetings on crutches. Since then his sufferings have been very great. _________________ Mr. R. LEE, sheriff of Perthshire, has been promoted to a judgeship in the Court of Session. He is a son of the late Rev. Principal LEE. _______________ A sad incident in connection with a wedding occurred at Bury St. Edmonds on Thursday. A Miss.

P., banker, of Macclesfield, and was born in 1810. ______________ On Friday, the Marquess of Queensberry was not re-elected as representative peer of Scotland. He said he was not ignorant of the reason - for the press had denounced his declaration with respect to the religion of the country. He held that if he were rejected on account of that, he would be rejected from the same spirit as that which lighted the martyr fires at Smithfield, and which had led to the death of BRUNO. The Marquess of Lowthian, in reply, said that it was presumptuous on the part of Lord Queensberry to say that his rejection would be on account of the abuse of the press. It would be because the noble lord had denied Christ, and even the existence of God. ___________________ The death is announced, at the age of 73 years, of Mr. John Robert KENYON, ______________ One Saturday in February Bishop MOORHOUSE walked from Toongabbie to Walhalla ______________ The Cologne Gazette says that a woman at Ochhup has has just been confined _____________ Poor Lord HASTINGS appeared with a very melancholy black eye on his wedding ______________ Mr. Edward CLARKE, late M.
