DAVEY, and Miss KATE MICHELL to Mr. WILLIAM CLEMOW, schoolmaster, of Blackwater, St. Agnes. The announcement of these marriages was received by us through the post, and had every appearance of authenticity. We have since made inquiries, by ourselves and our solicitor, respecting the manuscript, and have strong reason to believe that the individual last named in the above list was the writer of the communication. We can only say that none but a most unprincipled fellow would thus trifle with the feelings of respectable persons. It is a most disgraceful act, and we trust that after the searching investigation to which the matter will be submitted, we shall obtain sufficient evidence to deal with the author as he deserves.] DEATHS.
