This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are 100 - e, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical, ke has fixed his charges at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastica tion.-52, Fleet-street. At Home from Ten till Five. ON THE CONCEALED CAUSE THAT PREYS ON THE HEALTH AND SHORTENS THE DURATION OF HUMAN.

" Sir,—Twelve years ago I became afflicted with Rheumatic G I procared the best advice possible, hut without deriving bzneflt ; and the doctors recommended me to go to the Stannord Infirmary, where I continued twelve weeks, and left it without obtaining any benefit, and all hope of relief haft tanished. " This hopeless state of things continued until a friend advised me to try flair's Pills. I then lost no time in sending to Mr. Mortlock, of Stamford, for a box, and by the time I had taken that quantity I got rid of one crutch. I then sent for another box, wine!' enabled me to throw away the other, and, thank God, I have never since had such an attack.

Vice-Admiral of the White, Nie . wlas Tomlinson, died at his residence, Middleton House, Sussex, in the 83d year of his age. The deceaeed was as gallant an officer as ever wore the British uniform, and had seen as much hard perso nal service as any one, although he had neither stars nor garters, grand cro-sea nor medals. He entered the service plain Nicholas Tomlinson, was midshipman of the Charon. and scaled the wells at the siege of St. Feinando de Omoa in 1779, and was subsequently at the capture of the French 64- gun ship, Comte de Artois. In the expedition to Virginia he commanded a gun-boat, and the Charon being burnt by red-hot shot at the defence of York Town, in 1781, he com manded an advanced battery on shore. Ile was made a Lieutenant in March, 1782, and WP -,enior of the Bristol, and was severely injured in attempting to rescue the crew of the Athol, Indiaman, blown up In Madras roads in that year, and was first Lieutenant of the Bristol also in the following year in Hughes's fiith action with the Suffrein. He after wards commanded the brig Pelter, and with the most con summate daring cut out a French armed lugger on the coas of France, lying within pistol-shot of a battery and troops,t - d in 1795 engaged a convoy at the mouth of the Creche, and assisted at th e d e struction of a French co-vette and cutter in th e M or bih an . He was promoted to the rank of commander on the 30th of November, 1795, not having been merely a few months a lieutenant, as the more fortunate and highly decorated flag-officers on the list, but after many year. hard and meritorious service, and in the rank of commander, in which he remained nearly six years, did something to merit his promotion; for, as commande b f bra the Sutlisante, he captured the French national 12-gun g Revanche, and two privateers, in 1796. In 1801 he se_rve a d s as a volunteer in Lord Nelson's fleet at Copenhage ,and, promoted in September of that year. He commanded the fire-ships at Walcheren ; but it appears h e had not _ a servedrear_ his full time as a captain, for he was one of the dotted flag - officers, and was only in the receipt of half-pay admiral. It is intereting to compare the career_toafeset.hAegal lant deceased with that of another flag-officer. v ral Tomlinson was a lieutenant eighteen months . i before Sir Edward Codrington entered the servi ce, and six mouths before the former by his hard fighting had obtained one step Sir Edward was a post captain. They both served under Nelson, and both had commands at Walcheren ; but the one dies plain Vice-Admiral Nicholas Tomlinson, and the other is Admiral of the Red Sir Edward Codrington, G.C.8., G.C.M.G., &c., loaded with honours, prize-money, office, and pension. By the death of Vice-Admiral Tomlinson, Rear-Admiral Samuel Butcher becomes Vice-Admiral of the Blue, and Robert Jackson, EA., becomes the senior Rear-Admiral. The number of flag-oftieers is now Ir,O, the number pre scribed by the Admiralty. The next death of a flag-officer will promote Captain Prescott tot l l B le ls i p nt a ( s )t I b t e e ,t a n r-A a d p m o i i r n a t l e . a Lieutenant George Raymond ( an additional Lieutenant of the Ocean, to command the Dover steam-packet, on the Dover station. This officer has seen a variety of hard service;. but is, notwithstanding, a Lieutenant still. He was m idsh t ip a m t a_n of_ the Edgar, and in Tremendous at g al a the nd cutting out the Danish gun-boats at in iNg e o . e r ir r g em a was slightly wounded ; he was destruction of a French frigate and corvette, off Baifleur, in 1812, and was supernumerary mate of the Shannon when she captured the Chesapeake, and . holds from th e i mmortal Broke an autog ra p h certifica.e of his gallant beating in this, the finest frigate action on record. He was subsequently of the Belle route, in the operations in the Gironde in 1814, and also of the Ro y al Oak, and commanded a g un- boat at the capture of the flotilla on Lac Borgia, and in all th e operations on the coast of America. He was gazetted in 1813, for his service s, but did not obtain his hard-earned promotion until 1815.

FORGED BANK NOTES IN GLASGOW.A D l''• genious fraud was detected in this city yesterday, The fraud consists in the conversion of the word five into twenty, thereby making a five pound note pass for a t wen t y poun d one. This has been practised on some of the notes of the Edinburgh and Glasgow Bank. The directors and managers of that Bank have already taken prompt steps for meeting and frustrating the fraud, and some parties, we learn, are in custody. The Government stamp on the back of the note is the best proof of its integrity. We rec ommen d a care f u l examination of it. We believe that the vitiation of the Go vernment stamp is a capital crime. .So any delinquents touching it are putting their necks . i mminent jeopardy.— Scotch ,lilforintra Gazette.

ADMIRALTY DROITS.—One of the vessels of Mr. Thomas Barker, of South Shields, was lately in the harbour of Holyhead, and was taken possession of as a droit of the Admiralty, on the ground that the captain and mate having been committed to prison on a charge of assault, the vessel (although the master had committed it to the charge of a third party) became a droit of the Admiralty. The owner's agen t remonstrated in vain, and could only get his property out of the custody of the representative of the crown on payment of t he sum of fifty shillings Mr. Barker very properly determined to p ut a sto p to such practices, and instructed his attorney to bring an action against the re ceiver for the recovery of the money illegally retained, and for damage by the trespass. The action was brought ac cordingly, and has b een withdrawn, on payment of the sum of ten pounds in discharge of damage and costs, and on re ' ceipt of the following letter of apology, dated " Holyhead, March 2, 1847 :—Sir--I am sorry that my misconstruction of 9 and 10 Victoria should have caused a difference be tween me and a gentleman whom I . have not the honour of !mowing, and whose property I considered I was protecting under most peculiar circumstances. —I am, sir, your most obedient servant, J.

GRAIN RIOTING IN ROSS-SHIRE. (From the Ross-. Jere Adua.f;ser.) Wo regret that the spirit of opposition te the in meei of grain in this county. lately manifested, hes wage our ast beet, continued. On Saturday hut, some carts containing a quantity of meal, intended fee being -hieped at Dingwall, to melee up a cargo far Leclibroom, were stepped, and the boatman who was to take the meal to the vessel was threatened with violence, if ne would not. desist. On Monde, a vessel arrived in the canui.to 'eke in a cargo of grain, which having 'weenie kienve to some men trenching near, they left tarrk and hied to the • -ssel, the master of which they ateeed. end warned him against taking the grain ..n beard On that day the magistrates, having reason to fear a breach •f tee Wine le ace, resolved to swear in special renetal.iles, and the inhabitants were summened eccordiegle; len few at tended, and another inening was called for se, en o'clock in the evening for the eines. puree.e. This ;i ‘e, gas ttendcd by a lerge number of e erse - e lit I‘i con trebles were sworn. Prevtist Ross and Belie itose ex plained to the meeting tf-e necessity of preservi al- the public peace, and the imprepriety of pre, entit g the shipment of grain. Mr. Celin Munro, who was s ailing the meal to Lechbroom, stated that he wanted no as sistance from censtehles or others to ship the meal, as he wished to avoid disturbance, and would not ship any tf the peo de were against it. S .veral persons objected '0 being made constables for the shipment of grain, ,hough they were desirous, et the same time, of pre serving the peace. They thought the grain should not tee shipped while there was a scercity of meal in the eountry. While this meeting was being held, a great crowd congregated in the street, opposite the Court rouse, who occasioned a good deal of noise; end when the meeting dispersed, crowds paraded the town in all directions, cheering and hooting. A mob of women and children was immediately formed. come of whom threw stenes, nod others proceeded to tr. Munro's house. and the house of Mr. M.Donald. Breignernwhere some pa: its of glass were broken. A bon fi -e w, s lighted close to the vessel, which had arrived in he morning, and a party was set to watch in case any terain should he shipped. The magistrates went through the town, and did every thing they could to preserve the peace, and the crowd gradually disappeared. The magistrates again met on Tuesday. to swear in constables, but few chose to come forward, and they were consequently unable to perfect their arrangements. About eight o'clock in the evening the streets became crowded, and small bodies of people loitered about, whistling and shouting, while a horn was blown by one evidently employed for the purpose of collecting the mob. Heating met. at, the eat end of the High•street, the mob proceeded to Mr. Stewart's granary, on the Greenhill, where there were abdilt sixty quarters of grain, consisting of wheat, oaes, and barley, in order to mix the same, that it might not be taken out of the country. Captain Csmeron, who resides in the neigh bourhood, addressed the mob on the folly of their con duct, and advised them to disperse. They, however, went on to the granary, and soon commenced to break open the doors. Au entrance having been effected by pulling the easter door of the burn asunder, the crowd rushed in, hut as the granary was on an nip r flat, en t. nee fr.en the barn, by means of a ladder. the inv ders were for a time prevented from getting at the grain. At this time Billies Rose and Mslver, and the Procurator Fiscal arrived, and Mr. Rose at great, length addressed the crowd, amounting to several hundreds, cautioning them against acts of violence, and assuring the m then meal would be provided. This would have had e goof; effect, hut some rather notorious brawler. here inflemed the rabble, and some female orators hee'ne added their mite, by no mesns inconsiderable, the impression of the Beillie's advice was not lone felt. The barn having been taken possession or by the Fiscal and officers, rte crowd was cleared out, anti the d tors ne led up. The maeistrates had no sooner gone away, than th( crowd renewed their attack on the barn, stud enrced themselves in in spite of all the exertions of the officers to prevent them. Haring got. possession of the premises. they proceeded to break open the door of the artillery eifich was soon effected, and the corn w s immediately mixed, and of course a very great deterioration oeca ,ioned. Having accomplished this disgraceful outrage, and maltreated the officers, the crowd went, in a highly excited state and making prodigious noise, to the vessel at the canal, to which we have already alluded, and having awakened the master and crew, acme went 011 hoard, and the rest towed the vessel to the bottem of the canal, where the tide having left her, the vessel grounded, and so they could not put her f to sea. The crowd then paraded the streetsaLOVerds Strathpeffer toll-bar, intendiveeit is said, to ditroy Mr. M.Donald', granary at 1315d - gend, but it being near four o'clock in the morning, and being aware that they well watched they, after quantities of cheering and hooting, retired. We think it right to state that these riotous and out rageous proceedings were perpetrated principally by females and boys, under the more cautious leadership of a few whose names are well known, and who will most likely meet the punishment of their offences. On Wednesday the magistrates had an early consulta tion, and they again summoned persons to be sworn as censtabiss, and at last succeeded. In the ever ing nearly too took the oath ; the town was divided into three dis tricts, and the constabulary went to their different sta tions, each of the magistrates beading a division. Pre vious to this, Provost Ress announced, that with the view of satisfying the people, the magistrates had ar ranged. that oatmeal and barleymeal should be provided at the prices of Is. 81. and Is. ed. per peck, till the county store was opened. Upon this a vote of thanks was given by acclamation to the Provost and magistrates, and Mr. done Munro having given an order for 20 bolls of oat meal and some barleymeal at prime cost, to the magis trutes, thanks were also tendered to him. There was a good deal of noise during the night, but nothing serious. Three persons were apprehended for disorderly conduct, and one of those implicated in breaking open the barn and granary, was also apprehended. On Thursday, two of the-e women were sentenced to short imprisonments, hut were rescued on their way to the prison, by some of the people trenching near it. The others were lodged in prison last night, one for three days, and the other for further examination. The men who rescued the women have been this day apprehended. We are gla to say that last night the town was as quiet as usual; and though the special constables were on duty, there was no occasion for their interference. About three o'clock this afternoon. 100 men of the 27th, under the co-em aid of Lieutenant-Colonel Goodman, errived here from Invereorden. Accemmodation has been previd , d for them in a large house belonging to Mr. Colin Stewart. They brought 13 prisoners trote Invergordon, amongst whom were eight females. Having said so much as to the vi, lent proceedings here, we have little room to notice what took place at ether Maces in the celerity. Shipping of grain coin menced at levergerrlon on Teesiley, under military pro teetion. On that day time Sheriffs met at Invrreordon, with whom were Sir James Macker , zie, Tulb.ch, Ord, General Munro of Teaninich. Mr. Fowler of Raldery, Ste. &c., and is large die aehment of the 27th having c one, a few ca-t 3 of grain as re shipped, and the carts on return were sat4sheil to pieces. On Wednesday the eldiers had to escort the carts from a distance, and the people hevine pressed on the soldiers at Invergordon, four oersons were woiinded, bet nit! severely. with the bayonet. A great deal of excitement natura:ly existed, but w e a-e glad to say, that yesteriley all was quiet, and that a great deal or grain wee shipped without the intetp , sition of the military, which was also continued to- day. The district from Aloes telt`oelis Poitn hay beet; noisy during the week, and a snood deal of violence displayed. Th - granaries at the Point.. Balcony, and Assynt. were broken into and the grain mixed. Tim Tialahy so dete riorated cannot be less than 300 quarters at Fowlis, where, we are informed, the corn ens also mixed with some refuse of coal and lime. We trust that we now see the end of thov, riotoui proceedings, which we believe were promp-ed by the fear of famine and the high prices of food. Supplies were promised, and depots were to be opened, tins these steps were staved off from time to time, till tit. , pc.l3le lost confidence and brooded over disapp entmQnt. How ever, this cannot excuse the breaking into granaries, and mixing of the grain therein. which ma'; e+ the mer cies of Providence nugatory, and so far narrows th,- sup ply of food. BEAUMONT INSTITUTION, BEAUMONT-SQUARE; MILE-END.—A concert, chiefly of vocal miric, boasting a most attractive programme, rendered still more attractive by the prestige of the several favourite aqistes, whose reales ap peared on the list, was given at this institution on 31(mdtly evening. The large and commodious hall was completely filled by a fashionable, and a tasteful audience. Some disap pointment was occasioned by the non-attendance of Mi=s Sarah Flower, who was announced in several of her molt effective pieces, but this was compensated for by judicious substitutions. Signor and Madame F. Lablach•, Miss Eliza Nelson, Miss Messent, Mr. J. Parry, and Mr. Better were the vocal, and Messrs. Cohen (pianaforte), and Abbott (violin), the instrumental performers. They were all rapturously ap plauded. and frequently encored. The concert was ably conducted by Mr. Maurice Davis, and went off with great eclat. COUTTS v. DuNN.—The defendant in this case was removed immediately after the trial in a coach to the Queen's Bench Prison, and was placed in the receiving ward, with an intimation that the Governor would only allow him to remain in that part of the prison for two dav, 3he defendant, how• ever, remained until fouro'clock onThursday afternoon, when Cadwell, the turnkey, entered andinformedthe defendant that the Governor's orders were for him to leave immediately. Mr. Dunn replied that he could not, as he had hitherto been unable to get any furniture. Besides, as Lord Denman had not ordered him to be placed in any particular part, he objected to be placed in that portion of the prison, which would amount to what might be termed solitary confinement. There was another ground why he wished to remain. He intended to issue a writ of error, and until the error was settled he was entitled to be hailed. The turnkey, however, said his orders were impera tive, and Mr. Dunn was at once removed to that part of the prison which is set apart for misdemeanors, which is three stories high, and separated from the other portions by a dead wall on one side, and a high iron railing on the other. The de fondant was conducted to what mar he te rme d t h e he hest. roam, No. 1, at the top of the staircase, where a fire w as b urn i ng and a chair was placed. The defendant, wanted to iiaow whether he was to be allowed a bed ' ~r was h e to sleep on the boards. Subsequently a bed an d a bedstead were sent In. with a message that he w ou ld he all owed this convenience or ten days. by which period he must find his own furniture. Mr. Dunn again protested against hei, g in a i m ,' ~ ,.Titer' eoofinement, and has since written to the S crt•t•in , I 3 on the subject, but at present no answer has been received b,) the defendant from Sir Q.

In the remarks of one of the leading firms in the corn trade we find much that is calculated to reassure us upon the subject of an inadequate supply of food, and it appears from the statement of Messrs. &urge that " during the past month wheat his nearly eecovered the depression which had taken place at the letter end of January, and our quotations are within 3x per quarter of the highest point since harvest, with an improved demand on the part of our millers, hut with a liberal supply from the farmers up to the present time. The long continuance of the frost has, however, so delayed agricultural operations in the field, that they are now engeged in the preparation of the lend for spring seeine. and must be so for several weeks to come; we therefore anticipate a considerable falling off in their deliveries, probably until the end of next • eleeeereh so considerable a quantity having rard the last fortnight indicates more itiq have be , in tnreshed than there was sold during the ,rost. As there are sales making ror France from the east coast, and few arrivals of foreign; exeent from Ame- Flea. are cxre?ted to take ?) I .c before the opening of also to the probAility of our pre rotes e at ltast nearly maintained for sotto 'me to coule. Tie ugh the opinion we ventured to give i n our annual cryillar has been controverted in some quartersl—ii . that if the demand for the continent did rot Ctke ,•ff :he supplies which otherwi • would come to Eng'and, our present prices would bring forward a sufficient quantity to meet the wants of Great Britain, if shipping could be obtained to transp irt it: see n o ground tin to the present titre to alter this opinion, notwithstanding the reit advance in some of the forelen shipping ports; on the ci - intrary, this we believe will he found to bring for ward to these ports from the interior, esnecially to Odessa, an unexampled quantity as spring advances, and it is the tpinion of some well-informed parties that, even in Frence, there is yet a considerable stock of wheat held by the graneurs, which will be more freely sold as harvest approaches. The prices of wheat in some of the fereien ports are as follow :—Dantzic, 58s. to 655. ; Hatnburgb, 60s. to 655. ; Odessa, 445. to 595. It is too early to form an opinion of the prospects of the coming crop of wheat, but though rather baekward, we think the general appearance is by no means unfavourable for a productive season. while there is every reason to suppose that the breadth unusually : great. The stock of English barley now on hand is probably little more than will berequired for the purposes of seed; but the imports of foreign will, we expect, be much larger than at one time was antici pated, and we think the present prices will hardly be maintained. The high price of oats has so greatly les sened the consumption, that though the imports during the past month into Gloucester have been very trifling, and the supply from our farmers small, there have been quite sufficient brought to market to meet the demand, and as a liberal supply is expected from the Baltic into the eastern ports during the spring and summer, it is probable that those in Ireland which are not suited to mewling purposes will find the best market in Gloucester and other ports on our western coast." We take these extracts with the more satisfaction became there are so few parties in the corn trade not more interested in writing up prices than in seeking to moderate them, and because we have every hope that the experience of the writers has guided them to a sound conclusion. The facilities offered by the per mission to import food in foreign vessels have no doubt improved our prospects. been brong torn' he 11 t INDIA. THE KATHIES.—The Calcutta Christian Observer for January gives a notice of a singular race of people called the Kathies, who inhabit a part of Guzerat. These people are supposed by some to be the ancient Cithie, aho in the time of Alexander's In vasion occupied a portion of the Punjaub, near the confluence of the five rivers. Among the Kathies there are no distinctions of caste. Besides priests, they have an official class of persons called bards, who possess authority almost equal to that of the Druids. They become security for the payment of debts, the conduct of individuals who have misbehaved, and the appearance of persons in pending actions, either civil or criminal. On the same terms they conduct travellers and caravans through districts infested with robbers, or in a state of war. a troop of predatory horse appear, the bard ermmands them to retire, and, brandishing his dagger, takes a solem n oath that if they plunder the peisons under his prote c ti,. n, h e will stab himself to the heart, and bre,g upon their heads the guilt of shedding his blood. Such is the veneration in which he is held as a per ion of celestial origin, and such the horror at be the cause of his death, that the threat in &most every instance deters them from making the med •ated attack, and the party is allowed to pass on unmoe tested. The rAig on of thest. people consists of little else than ad , ration of the sun. They invoke this object their worship before commencing .pt great under teking, and if a plundering expedition be successful, a portion of the money stolen is consecrated to the service _ of religion. The only f unc ti ons o f the priests are to IdP celebrate marriages and funeral selemnities. They have but one sacred building —a temple—situated near Thuam, dedicated to the sun, and containing an image of that luminary. The size of the Kathies is above the average, often exceeding six feet. The women aro tall and often handsome ; generally speaking, modest, and faithful to their lords. The Kathies have no restrictions of any sort regarding food or drink." CONSUMPTION OF COAL IN FRANCE. Some statistics received connected with the consump tion of coal in France and the production of her col lieries will furnish a partial clue to the industrial progress of that country during rather more than the last fifty years. It is stated that coal had been 42112. ployed in France before the fourteenth century, but it was not till the year 1787 that the consumption reached an important point. In that year the quantity of coal consumed was 4,053,919 metrical quintals, and the consumption went on steadily increasing till is 1815 it amounted to 11,121,942 metrical quintals. Considerable as this increase was in comparison with former periods, a much greater augmentation took place in the course of the next ten years, and then it appears that the quantity consumed had gra dually advanced to 19,943,853 metrical quintals. The next important stage that occurred was between that date and 1834, when we find that from 19,943,853 metrical quintails, the quantity had again augmented to 34.144,059 quintals, each year of the intervening period showing a further and progressive increase. From that time forward an increase has annually taken place in consumption, and the latest return for 1844 gives the amount for that year at 54,861,501. Of this quantity of coal consumed the pro produc.ion of the interior during 1843 was 37,827,395 metrical quintals; and the difference between consump tion and production was made up of importations from the collerios of Belgium, Great Britain, and the Rhenish provinces joining Prussia and Bavaria. During the year 1843 Belgium alone imported into France 11,157,949 metrical quintals, and the importation from Great Britan representßd 4.276:936. A PRACTICAL PCSEYITE.—We have received a statement of an occurrence which is said to have taken place recently Within a hundred miles of Totnes, which, if correct is very discreditable to the party chiefly coneerned. The child of a po ,, r woman hiving died, it was taken to the pariah church fu. interment. Previous, however, to the child being consigned to its final resting place, the parson alluded to, inquired of the mother if it bad been christened, to which she replied in the affirmative. "I ea pect it was by some Methodist," said his Reverence. The woman declared it was not, but that it was done by a regular church parson. The interment was then suffered to take place; but the clergyman's zeal for the non intrusion of dissenter's children in his churchyard and the spiritual good of souls did not stop here. After the corpse had been placed in the ground he told the woman to follow him into tha vestry, whey he detained her, we understand above half an hour, during which time he elicited from her that her offspring was not born in wedlock, and that he doubted its ever having been christened according to the rites of the Church of England. After giving her a severee lecture en this syppos breach of duty, he took her into the Church, and there actually read over to her the service for the Churchly of Women, when she was allowed to de part. Could no other tine be found for the exercise of relie:ious discipline than at such a distressing time as this? —Plymouth Journal. I T ANKLE MissIC)NARY. I went to se , Mr. or Dr. Williamson, who was here loth in the capacity or MlS si,mary and apothecary, and found with him -and-out we , tern Yankee, of the name of Ilugg;ns, an odd, lonps legged. sharp-faced, asparagus-looking every portion of his body being R 5 narrow as the head he bore on the t , p of it. This fellow being rather in the pious line, and profes si ig; to know something about farming, the missionary had brought him from Illinois to raise corn and vegetables , as well as to assist bim in his other labours: but he was such an original, that the missionary himself at , • 1 no ens ice of being noticed where he was. I never saw a Yankee that so com pletely came up to those quaint, drawling, vulgar, Jonathans, the Idea of which is now so general. He always called the Indians "critturs," had got all their intfriections and trmts, and used them instead of "Yes" and " No." He certainly knew more about the Indians than the missionary . did,- and was more co istantiv amongst them. Mr. Williamson was married, and had a motive for remaining at home, but Huggins, who was alone in the world, was in the habit of walking into the tabees without ceremony, and, sitting down, would take his psalm-b)ok and sing a few verses to the Indians, so that the women had got accustomed to him, and lather liked him. "Some folks is cou9iderable curious," he once said to me, " to find out wbar these ignorant critturs corned from. lam as sartin as , 'eith that they are the old Philistines of the Scrip what tures : they cant be the lost tribe of the J ews , bekase h a hehad underarch t is ta t k b e e n i ra young birds ( Indianber (beard.) girlgone?" t o w wife? asked t h r i a m n w e h r :i said he, "I alluw them her you ng painted Jizzabuls aint just up t o ff h e inarying."—Feath ers t on h aug h' s Canoe Voyage up ~ i l itß iIEngt,TB°O7.CATTLE BUTCIIERS."—On Saturday night last Mr. Brett, sub-inspector toit of police, Bandon, pro ceeded with apaarnty,offrponoili informationceasse whichl 1 -h i Russell-hill, he l , in ot.

Mr. Brett was sitting in a ditch hid by the furze, and the first fellow, on the three others enter ing the field, sat down immediately under where Mr. Brett was, and took out a large knife, which he commenced whetting on a stone which he carried with him. The other three followed the cows for the purpose of getting them ingether into a corner; the cow• ran, and the lads after them, when, unfortunately, cows and butchers tumbled over the police, who were lying in ambush, and this prevented the slaughter of the poor animals. The police arrested the three :nen, the fourth having taken to his heels. Knowing their :oan, they took no trouble in pursuing him, but in an hour after quietly took him out of hi= bed. They searched his house, andf)uud a gun, with a supply of powder and ball, al.?o some articles which were taken out of one of the k houses lately robbed in the neighbourhood, and which have been identified.—Cork Constitution. ~.
