In consequence of Lord Arundel's recent vote on the Reform Bill, upwards of thirty of the Salisbury troop of Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry Cavalry, of which his Lordship is captain, have sent in their resigna- tion.

DUBLIN ELECTION COMMITTEE.—This Committee closed its labours on Wednesday, with a resolution that the sitting members were duly elected, and that the petition was not frivolous or vexatious. This re- suit was foreseen from the commencement.—Globe. [How could it be otherwise, looking to the composition of the Committee ? By what ac- cident did it happen that every member of time Committee was a back- and-bone Anti-Reformer ? We suspect, from the frequent recurrence of such coincidences, that the Grenville Act requires as much amendment as the House that passed it. This is the second instance in regard to Dublin, within a few weeks, that the judgment of the Committee was known to every man in the kingdom the instant it was constituted.] NEW MEMBERS.—On Monday night, Sir John Bung and Mr. Henry Wynne took their seats, the former as member for Poole, the latter for the borough of Flint ; they are both Reformers.

[Will they dig them ?1

Cuoi.zaa.—Accounts from Alexandria to the end of August, state that at Cairo the deaths amounted every day to 500, and that in Alexandria 77 persons had already fallen victims to the disease. The Pacha had taken refuge on board of one of his frigates, and was cruizing off the port of Alexandria.

The Birmingham Journal says there is a strong reason to apprehend that a case of Indian cholera had appeared in that town within the pre- sent week, which had terminated fatally. We understand that three cases of cholera had appeared at Hamburg on Saturday last. At one time the fact of the disease having appeared at Hamburg would have excited a great deal of alarm ; but, from the superior excitement of the Bill, even Cholera has lost its terrors. The truth is, the disease evidently becomes mitigated in places where the people are well fed, and where their habits are cleanly ; and such will be Seen to be the case should it reach England. AMERICAN DUEL.--The Americans certainly manage affairs of ho- nour better than we do; they go to them in earnest. Our duels are mere make-believes; the parties shoot to please their friends, not them- selves ; they choose a respectable distance, and take care not to hit ; and if by any unlucky chance they do, there is such a lamentation ! Now, when a Yankee has made up his mind to an honourable murder, he is as zealous for the murder as the honour, and takes proper means that neither shall escape him. Take the following among many as a specimen of the way in which Transatlantic gentlemen go to work. "St. Louis, August 29.—On Friday, Major Biddle and Spencer Pettis, accompanied by their friends, passed over to Bloody Island about four in the afternoon, for the purpose of fighting a duel. All preliminaries having been previously arranged, they took their position back to back, at the distance five feet : and at the word, wheeled, or rather turned their bodies without moving their feet much, if any --they both fired as nearly at the same instant as could be, and were both mortally wounded, the ball passing entirely through the body of Mr. Pettis, just above the waistband, and Major Biddle receiving aball nearly in the same place. Mr. Pettis died on Saturday, about three o'clock in the afternoon, and Major Biddle died on Monday, about five." When will Battersea Fields or Wormwood Scrubbs turn out such a brace of heroes as Bloody Island ?
