The minister replied—"you ought to have provided money before you had come here to be married." The poor man took his wife by the arm, and walked off, saying—"wa-wa-when ta-ta-trade mends, I'll pa-pa-pay you as sa-sa-soon as I can." DEATHS. Since our last:—Mr. Thos. SNOWDEN, of Blackwell, aged 56.—Mr. Isaac MILLER, of Burnthwaite, aged 62.—Mr. Peter GRAHAM, of St. Cuthbert's Lane, aged 44.—Mr. John MARTIN, of Lowther-street, aged 37.—Jane WALLER, of English-street, aged 33.

At Edinburgh, very suddenly, on Friday the 2nd inst. where he had arrived but a few hours previous for the recovery of his health, Thomas BROUGHAM, Esq. of Penrith, one of his Majesty's Justices of the Peace for the county of Cumberland. In the death of this most worthy individual, the town of Penrith, and indeed society in general, have lost a most valuable friend. Feeling alive to the distresses of his fellow-creatures, it was his constant study to render them alleviation; and many are the charitable institutions founded by his zealous exertions for the welfare of the community, which will remain honourable monuments of his enthusiastic philanthropy. Nor did his amiable qualities rest here, for few have discharged the duty of a Magistrate with greater credit to themselves or satisfaction to the public. Wholly divested of that indifference which marks the characters of too many in whom this great trust is reposed, it was ever his desire to pry into every circumstance attendant on cases under his cognizance in order to decide with perfect impartiality: and innumerable instances might be adduced of the good effects produced by his praise-worthy activity. In short, he was almost perfection in his nature—a sincere Christian—a disinterested friend—a dutiful husband—an affectionate father,—and his death has called forth the unfeigned lamentations of all in every class of society who had the pleasure of his acquaintance.—Peace to his beloved manes! may we all be as worthy the inheritance of a blessed hereafter!—From a Correspondent.
