A man killed by a lion at Astley's Theatre — a Thrilling scene. On the 7th inst., all the lions at Astley's Royal Amphitheater, in London, and owned by Mr. Crockett, escaped from their den. The London Times says: Several men who were at work in the building were startled by the loud roaring of the lions, and in a few minutes they were horror-struck at beholding one of the lions struggling with a man named Jarvey, a yard-helper in the establishment. On the arrival of Mr. Crockett he rushed on the stage, where the lion was running about with the unfortunate man Jarvey in his mouth, to all appearance quite dead. Mr. Crockett instantly seized a stable fork and dealt the lion a heavy blow on the side of the head, which caused it to let the man go; but instead of running away, he turned round, and seemed inclined to spring upon his master. Another powerful blow, however, made the enraged animal turn and run away. Medical aid was immediately brought for poor Jarvey, but on th
Foreign News by the North Briton. The following is some further general news by the North Briton, from Liverpool on the 9th, which arrived at Portland Wednesday: The weather continued to be very severe in England, occasioning much distress, and fears of bread riots were entertained. Quite a panic prevailed in Liverpool on the 9th instant. It was rumored that in a portion of the city a mob had entered the bakers'shops, plundering them of their contents, owing to the advance in prices and the severity of the weather, causing a suspension of many kinds of labor. So great was the alarm that many of the shops closed their doors; but the fears of thepectacle of brothers warring on brothers. France.

On the next night the dwelling near the Shadwell Depot, belonging to Mr. E. J. Timberlake, the Stone house, was also destroyed by fire. --The dwelling-house of Dr. Wm. G.

dress of the South Carolinians — rejoicing in Georgia--Hon. Sherrard Clemens' speech, &c., &c. Seizure of Another Fort in North Carolina. It has already been stated that Governor Ellis, of North Carolina, had directed Forts Caswell and Johnson, which had been seized by citizens of that State, to be returned into the custody of the Federal Government.--This fact does not seem to have ended the seizures. A correspondent of the Petersburg Express, writing from Washington, N. C., on the 21st, says: The citizens of our town were much aroused yesterday morning on hearing of the seizure of Fort Neil, near our place. On Saturday night, a number of our enterprising young men left this place to seize Fort Neil, which they did, and hoisted the Palmetto flag over it. Fort Neil is a small, but strong little fort, lying on Pamlico river, between this place and Pamlico Sound. While I write great excitement exists in Washington. A Sunday at the batteries.

Meeting at the African Church. --An immense number of persons assembled at the African Church on Wednesday night, in response to the following notice: "The working men of Richmond will hold a meeting at the African Church, on Wednesday night, 23d inst., at half-past 7 o'clock, to take into consideration the alarming state of our beloved country, and, if thought advisable, to nominate candidates for the Convention. All branches of labor are invited to attend." The meeting was called to order by Mr. Thos. Jones, on whose motion Mr. Thos. H. Wynne was elected Chairman. On taking the chair, Mr. Wynne thanked the meeting for the unexpected honor. He had not been advised of the intentions of the assemblage, and knew nothing of its objects except from reading the notice in the newspapers. He, however, felt deeply interested in the movements of the industrial classes, and would discharge the duties of his present position with whatever ability he might possess. The necessi

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.Court day — Deaths, &c. Clarkesville, Mecklenburg co., Va., January 21st, 1861. To-day was Mecklenburg Court, day, and there was a large turn-out of the sovereigns. January seldom witnesses such an imposing assemblage. Very little business was transacted in Court. The condition of the county was the absorbing topic of conversation.-- But one sentiment pervaded the masses, and that was a sentiment of loyalty to the Constitution, but of firm, unyielding resistance to Republican tyranny. Several gentlemen addressed a tremendous meeting in the Court-House, taking decided ground in favor of putting Virginia immediately out of the Union.-- Among these were Tucker Carrington and Thos. F. Geode, who are the only candidates for the Convention in Mecklenburg. I forbear to express any opinion as to the merits of the rival candidates, inasmuch as the election, now so close at hand, will soon decide between them. Edward Townes, a wealthy

Goode and Tucker Carrington are the candidates, both secessionists. It is generally thought that Carrington will be elected. Yours, in haste, J. J. C.
