AS a further proof of the efficacy of DR. BARKER'S celebrated GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS, atten tion to the following letter is respectfully requested : To DR. BARKER, EDINBURGH. Swinstead Vicarage, Lincolnshire, May 12th, 1836. " Dear Sir, —Having upon several occat,ions taken your Anti-Gout Pills, and having invariably derd great benefit from them, I think I owe it to you, and the to bear testi mony to their superior efficacy. I have been subject to attacks of Gout for ten years ; but since I began to use your Pills these havb been less frequent, and much less painful. From my own experience I am persuaded that your Pills will check the disease in its incipient state, or so far allay the acuteness of pain, that the suffering under this dreadful complaint is comparatively trifling. I was so unfortunate as to be without your Pills when I was last attacked, and suffered all the agony I had always endured before I became acquainted with your excellent remedy. I gave a box of your Pills to a young labouring man in this town, who had_ suffered severely from Rheumatism, and the rapidity of relief they gave him was truly astonishing.—l am, &c., HENRY DANIEL, Clerk. From the EDINBURGH OBSERVER NEWSPAPER. _ January 28, 1834. " We beg to refer our readers to Dr. Barkei . 's advertise ment, in which they will perceive that a cure for Gout and . Rheumatism, discovered and prepared by him; has proved wonderfully successful: We, from our own personal know ledge, can vouch for its efficacy, and we would recommend it to all persons labouring under these painful complaints." These Pills are prepared by Dr. Barker, Edinburgh, and sold in boxes at 2s. 9d. each, by all respectable Druggists and Patent Medicine Vendors in Liverpool, Chester, War rington, Manchester, Rochdale, Halifax, Leeds, York, Hull, Newcastle, Lancaster, Preston, Dublin, Belfast, &b., and Wholesale by all the Patent Medicine Houses in London, and by J. and R.

THE very rapid sale of this invaluable Medicine, since its recent introduction here, more than realises the most sanguine anticipations of its Proprietor. No better proof of the great virtues of the American Herb Pills could be given, than this ready appreciation on the part of the afflicted. — Never since Medicine became a science was there a happier discovery than that of the composition of this invaluable Remedy. .DR. W. EVANS having proved, by the ost thoroughly extended individual and collective experie e, that these Pills are firmly based on the immutable laws .f Nature, deems it an imperative duty to bring them b. fo the Public. The great principles on which th . . edicine is established, are to supersede the indiscriminate .se of the Lancet, and of those violent and dangerous minerals which have caused such great mortality, and to prevent the frequent recourse to the many deleterious purgatives compounded and put forth by ignorant pretenders. THE AMERICAN HERB PILLS, having stood the test of the most thoroughly extended experience, are confidently re commended as decidedly superior to any combination of Medicine ever offered to the Public. These Pills are a mild Aperient, perfectly safe, certain, and pleasant in their operation, and being wholly composed of HERBS that harmonise admirably with the human constitu tion, they are perfectly salutary under any circumstances. In all cases in which functional derangements of the Liver, the Stomach and Bowels are involved, and also in all Impu rities of the Blood, this Medicine possesses curative powers of surpassing efficacy ; Costiveness, Dyspepsia and Bilious Complaints, so frequently aggravated by other Medicines, are easily cured by a judicious administration of this. A. proper perseverance in the. use of these invaluable Pills will effectually relieve the distressed victims of Gout and Rheu matism, break up the tendency to a recurrence of the malady and establish the health of the patient. These Pills are also highly efficacious in all cases of Lowness of Spirits, Nervous Irritability and Weakness, Loss of Appetite, Flatulency, Heartburn, General Debility, Hysteria, Head-ache, Asthma, and Spasmodic Affections. One of the most dangerous epochs to Females is at the change of life ; they then require a remedy that will invigo rate and equalise the circulation, so that they may withstand the shock. That Medicine is Dr. Evans' American Herb Pills. Those who have the care and education of Females should never be without them. The HERBS of which they are composed exert a specific action upon the Heart a'nd arterial system, quickening and equalising the circulation through all the vessels, whether of the skin, the parts situated internally, or the extremities : and as the secretions of the body are drawn from the blood, there is a consequent in crease of every secretion and a quickened action of the ab sorbent and exhalent or discharging vessels. Any morbid action that may have taken place is corrected, and all obstruc tions removed, the blood is purified, and the body resumes a healthful state. Perseverance in the use of these Pills will undoubtedly effect a cure in all cases that have been found discouragingly obstinate. The great number of persons afflicted with Dys;ftpsia, Liver or Bilious Complaints, are to be found among care worn speculators, stock-brokers, and ardent students ; or among those.whose nervous system has, by injudicious edu cation, been too greatly developed and rendered morbidly excitable. There can be no doubt that sedentary habits con cur with mental excitement in producing these complaints. Lowness of spirits is a certain state of mind, accompanied by indigestion, wherein the greatest evils are apprehended upon the slightest grounds, and the worst consequences imagined. Ancient medical writers supposed this disease to be confined to those particular regions of the abdomen, tech nicslly called hypochondria, which are situated on the right or left side of that cavity, whence comes the name hypochon driasis. The common corporeal symptoms are, flatulency inithe stomach or bowels, acrid eructations, costiveness, spasmodic pains, giddiness, dimness of sight, palpitations. and often an utter inability of fixing the attention upon any subject of importance, or engaging in any thing that demands vigour or courage. Also languidness—the mind becames irritable, thoughtful, desponding, melancholy, and dejected, accom panied with a total derangement of the nervous system. The mental feelings and peculiar train of ideas that haunt the imagination and overwhelm the judgment, exhibit an infinite diversity. The wisest and best of men are as open to this affliction as•the weakest. An habitual moderate use of the American Herb Pills, in conjunction with moderate exercise and relaxation, will ef fectually accomplish a cure. The virtues of these Pills. are peculiarly such that they may be taken without occasioning sickness, nausea, or any of those disagreeable sensations at tpnding the operation of other medicines.

LE DRAY, SURGEON-DENTIST, from the Firm of LE DRAY and CO., London. SCURVY in the GUMS EFFECTUALLY REMOVED, A,RTIFIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And filling Decayed Teeth with Mineral Marmoratum. MoNs. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect• fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and Inhabitants of Liver. pool avid its vicinity, that.they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 70, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of the breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums, there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility at the following Paris charges : A single Artificial Tooth A complete Set A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine ' gold plate An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first style, with fine gold sockets, usually charged 40 guineas Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.

DISASTERS AT SEA, IN 1838.—The subjoined we find in the Sailor's Magazine, and it gives a record which has been carefully kept, during the year 1838, of marine disasters, which have been published in various newspapers in the country, of which publication has been made in the Sailor's Magazine, from month to month. Those only have been selected which resulted in a total loss of the vessel. The greater part of the vessels were American, and a large pro tion of the disasters took place near the American coast. The total number of vessels wrecked in the year-427. _ _ Ships and barques .. .. 104 Sloops Brigs 146 Steam-boats Schooners Of those vessels there were lost towards the close of the las year, but reported in this, 44. • January 39 July February 3l August .. ..

Precise time unknown In addition to these known losses, there have been reported 27 vessels missing, concerning which there is very little doubt but they are lost with all on board. In the above-named vessels there were reported the loss of 753 lives. This does not, probably, include all the lives lost by these disasters, but only those mentioned with certainty. Many of the wrecks were fallen in with at sea, and the fate of the crews was wholly unknown. Undoubtedly the loss of life has been great, and many a crew has been wholly swallowed up, and no one spared to tell the melancholy tale.

CORN AND TYPES. THE AGRICULTURAL INTEREST V. THE LIBERAL PRESS. Whilst all eyes are turned upon the movers of agitation and the leaders of party, or are busily engaged in searching for the causes in which, supposed or real, the "agrarian" conspiracy, with its midnight tribunals of proscription and death ; whilst the blusterers that pace the platform, and the miscreants that should grace the gallows, are the objects of vigilant attention and scrutiny to the loyal and peaceable of all persuasions —it is much to be lamented that the chief fomentation, if not the originating cause of most of the evils which oppress the country, is overlooked—and that a vast portion, even of the well-disposed community, continue unconsciously to foster, to patronise, to pamper into Wantoness that Press, which preying on the credulity or passions of the vulgar, instructs and encourages the incendiary, demoralised, and revolutionary—which fills the country with crime—and desolates the" hearth of civilised and peaceable life. It is the self styled liberal press that leads the cry of disaffection—or echoes the voice of the incendiary ; that cheers on the idle, the drunken and dissolute of our rustic population, and (what class has has not its proportion of savages ?)—arms the cau tious and better instructed villain with the means of distri buting his moral poisons. Gentlemen—landlords, and landholders of Ireland—there are .many of you that, to your own hindrance, encourage journals of the description to which we have alluded. And what requital find you in their columns for the patronage which warms such vipers in your bosoms? Are not your selves and your industrious and contented farmers held up to general execration in such odious colours, that it ceases to be a wonder that the deluded and infatuated peasantry are at length tempted to believe it a virtue—not a crime—to ex terminate you all ? you may observe for instance, in one para graph of such journals a few harsh epithets bestowed on the murderer, and a few hypocritical phrases of condolence with the family of the victim : but mark where—in another and succeeding paragraph—under the treacherous mask of sym pathy with the poor—under the pretence of wishing to pro cure them land at a cheaper rate—you are all denounced : apologies are offered for the murderer, and you are told how wonderful it is that the peasantry should be so pacific as they are, considering the grinding exactions of griping, usurious, tyrannical, and heartless landlords—meaning you, gentlemen of Ireland, as a body—and it is held out as a pardonable, if not a meritorious, practice, to sink, burn, waste, and destroy you, also, farmers of Ireland, if, with your enterprise and industry you dare to offer a fair price for the land you wish to farm. But all this would not suffice to make either of you, as a class, renounce your best interests unless they could succeed in carrying down the produce of your land, far lower than— do the worst they can—they could cry down the landitself, and in raising an outcry against the corn-laws. Hence their uproar for cheap bread. But you, farmers, and labourers, are notsunk in such grovelling ignorance as they compliment you with. You will not be persuaded that bread is cheap at half price, when your produce and your wages are reduced to half price also ; nor, when you are altogether thrown out of land and employment, will you see the beauty of cheap bread and no money to buy it. Now it is very easy for these literary gentlemen to dip their oar into your waters and trouble the stream of your peaceable occupations. What would they think, however, were you, in return, to clap your finger into their pie and begin to meddle with its contents ? What would these sowers of predial discord, these inciters of agrarian conspiracy say— were any of you, members of the agricultual classes, to go amongst the " smutched artificers" of the printing-office, and to harangue the hard-working but contented operatives of a decaying•journal, telling them--that their hard-hearted and reckless employers were skinning them alive—preyingon their vitals—draining their sweat and blood, and, by low wages, starving their helpless babes, and famine-striken wives ? What would they say to this, trove ye ? And if you did so, who could blame you ? Would the printers gainsay your assertions ? Alas ! they, poor fellows ! recollect too well, that when they dared to think for themselves, the liberal press—the devoted slave of Mr. O'Connell—did', one and all, raise the war-whoop of illegal combination against them. Up, then, and be stirring, ye tillers of the land. Know your friends from your foes, and treat them accordingly. Ne sutor ultra crepidam. Let the printer stick to his types, and let him and his employers regulate their wages and their profit. But let them not meddle with your rents, or your profits, your wages or your profits. You do not go to the shops and factories of cities, and insist on naming the standard for their goods. Let them not cajole you to submit to their dictation. It is with pleasure we perceive that some of you, at least, agree with us in this opinion, and that you begin to impress your sentiments on the journals we allude to. The altered tone of one of them, and that the most ferocious, is satis factory proof that the pressure from without has been felt within.—Dublin Mail. WHAT WILL O'CONNELL DO? Mr. O'Connell, not to leave this query unsatisfied, has written to Mr. Ray, the Secretary of the Precursor Society, as follows : " It is quite manifest that we are condemned by tory and radical hostility to do without railrAds until an act passes in College-green for their creation. I presume the government plan will be abandoned as hopeless. " Indeed I pity the Irishman who supposes that there is any hope for his country save in the repeal ! My plan is this : " First—l will publish an appeal to the people of Ireland in a ' Hereditary Bondsmen' letter in the Pilot of Monday— I will show them what little reliance they can place in British statesmen. _ _ Secondly—l request an adjournment for a fortnight of the Precursor Society—that is, from Monday, the 11th, to Mon day, the 25th. On the latter day I will, please God, attend, and remain in Dublin, organising the popular party for a fortnight, as the Easter recess will, as usual, continue until after Low Sunday. .!` Thirdly—l will, in the first week after the recess, bring on the subject of an equalisation of the parliamentary fran chises between England and Ireland, and again divide the house upon that question. " Fourthly—l will try the same measure in substance, but different in form, so as to meet parliamentary usages, in the month of May. • " Fifthly—Being defeated in thdse attempts, I will then submit to the Precursor Society the necessity of either dis solving or making way for the National Association for the Repeal of the Union.'' And thus keep up the game which brings so much beautiful grist to my agitation mill. £15,000 a year is a mighty convenient thing, and the boys will pay it as long as they are well agitated. THE LORD LIEUTENANT AND THE ESTABLISHED CHURCH. (FROM , HANSARD'S PARLIAMENTARY REPORTS.) " Viscount Ebrington has ever considered that the exist ence of a Church Establishment in Ireland so disproportion ate to the wants of the community was a STAIN and a DISGRACE to the INSTITUTIONS of the COUNTRY, and he should have found great difficulty in bringing himself to sup port the measure, if he thought it would tend to prevent that reduction of the Church Establishment which at no VERY DISTANT PERIOD HE HOPED TO SEE ACCOMPLISHED. With respect to the principle of appropriation—if in the present state of things he saw any prospect of carrying that principle into operation —no consideration should induce him to acquiesce in a Bill which did not include it. But if the struggle against Tithes was still to go on, notwithstand ing the Bill—the burden would be on the shoulders of those who were much better able to bear it, AND WHO HE HOPED WOULD CARRY ON THE WAR WITH EFFECT. He should support this measure, therefore, not as the best he could wish to see carried into effect, but as the best which the pre sent state of parties held out a hope of obtaining." The best practical commentary we can offer upon the foregoing declaration, is the resolution unanimously adopted by the " popular party" at a meeting held subsequently to Lord Fortescue's appointment, at Blackrath, in the county of Kilkenny : " Resolved—That so indispensibly necessary to the peace and prosperity of Ireland do we consider the extinction of the Irish church establishment, that we pledge ourselves to each other and to our countrymen, that if parliament reject our prayer for the abatement of that national nuisance, we will commence and continue a strenuous system of consti tutional agitation, and never desist from it till we see our native country reinstated in her national independence, either by a repeal of the union, or by some fortunate event which shall, still more promptly and more decisively than even repeal itself, raise us from our present abject state of pro vincial degradation." What the more fortunate event" alluded to in the con cluding lines of the foregoing is; cannot be - matter of a moment's doubt. A successful insurrection is evidently in contemplation.—Dublin Evening Mail.

"Lawson, printer of this jourtial, who has just been released from the consequences entailed upon him through a flagitious law of criminal libel, was on the point, very possi bly, of suffering under the visitation of another law, capable, with dexterous management, and a good Whig guidance, of being improved into a national curse, not unworthy of rival ship with the law of libel itself, namely, the " law of privi lege," as understood and inflicted by some of those to whom its administration has been of necessity intrusted. Mr. Lawson, we -say, was on the point of undergoing this second persecution, had not Lord Lyndhurst and other peers felt the cruelty of his position, and rescued him from it by a solemn and recorded Vote. To the parliamentary i;port of the Lords' proceedings we refer for an outline of the legal transaction, which, but for the beneficent interference of the house, might have ended in an oppression as grievous, and in a defeat of justice u iniquitous and odious, as ever disgraced the Star Chamber of old. An action for libel on the part of a Mr. Polack had been met by a plea of justification on that of Mr. Lawson. To make good this plea, satisfactory evidence was required to be given of the facts. The facts were contained in a body of testimony printed-and published by order of the House of Commons, being sold, as is notorious, by their printer, Mr. Hansard. But the tender of these documents, thus officially published, was objected to by the plaintiff in the cause, by reason that they were not authenticated by officers of that assembly before which the evidence had been delivered— viz., a committee of the other House of Parliament, from whose records they had, with full consent of their lordships, been transferred to those of the House- of Commons. , By Mr. Lawson a respectful petition was addressed to the House of Lords, explaining the difficulty in which he was placed through the operation of rules, which, partly com prehended under the law of evidence, partly under that oT libel, had refused him the benefit of papers published by the House of Comnions, and compelled him to throw himself on their lordships' justice for an authentication of the originals by their lordships' own officer. The committee of privilege to•which the petition was referred rejected the prayer of it, as being inconsistent with their privileges ! Lord Lyndhurst differed with the committee, and moved the house that the prayer of the petition be complied with. On his lordship's address to the house we sballnot pretend to make further commentary, than that it was full, striking, and impressive ; denying that any breach of privilege had been committed by Mr. Lawson, and abundantly demonstrating the enormous tyranny which would be exercised by withhold ing from the petitionery—qn. foe " " -4 ' l4 vilege," the only means of self-defence within his reach—the only channel through which the Court of Queen's Bench could arrive at a knowledge of the truth, and, therefore, through which the rights of the subject could be vindicated, or the interests of justice protected. A minute, and merely technical, reply was attempted in one quarter to this manly and masterly appeal of Lord Lyndhurst', which, however, does not at all astonish us, nor did it seem to produce conviction, as we learn, on many of those who heard it. But it was followed by Lord Brougham in a spirited and brilliant strain of lucid argument, mingled with contemptu ous and fearful sarcasm—proving, first, that if the law of pri vilege had been literally (though it was absurd to say it had been in substance) violated by Mr. Lawson in his publication of documents printed and sold by order of the House of Com mons, their lordships could no more, without enormous in consistency, visit such an act with punishment than they could the daily publication of their own speeches, from the mere sight of which in a newspaper he drew a ludicrous picture of the Lord Chancellor averting his eyes in a paroxysm of dra matic horror.' Secondly, that it was no breach of their Lord ships' privilege whatsoever, seeing that the papers published by Mr. Lawson had been documents first read at the table, then printed by order of the House of Commons, and there fore adopted by that house as their own, and to be described and treated as their property and proceedings —no longer those of the House of Lords ; therefore, that if any breach of privilege had had been committed, it was of the Commons' privileges—not those of their lordships' house, and not call ing for any of that extraordinary tenterness or soreness which had been betrayed by their committee. But thirdly, that it was no breach of the privileges of the Commons, because the act of unrestricted publication by whew was a sanction of this circulation in print of the same documents by every subject of the realrh. Of Lord Holland—not the Lord Holland of better days— it is needless to add a syl l able to the benevolent maxim, " de mortuis nil nisi bonum." " 'Tis true—'tis pitiful." At all events, that the action brought against Mr. Lawson may now be tried upon its merits has been decided by their lordships,' who supported Lord Lyndhurst's, constitutional motion by a division of 31 against 18. PADDY'S STOB,Y ABOUT A FOX. (From Lovers' Legends and Stories of Ireland.) " Paddy," said the squire, " perhaps you would favour the gentlemen with that story you once told me about a fox ?" " Indeed and I will, plate your honour," said Paddy, though I know full well not one word iv it you believe, nor the gentlemen won't either, though you're axin' me for it ; but only want to laugh at me, and call me a big liar, whin my back's turned." " May be we wouldn't wait for your back being turned, Paddy, to honour you with that title." " Oh, indeed, I'm not say in' you wouldn't do it as soon forninst my face, your honour, as you often did before, and will again, and welkim -" " Well, Paddy, say no more about that, but let's have the story." " Sure I'm losin' no time, only telling the gintlemen be fore-hand that it's what they'll be calling it a lie, and indeed it is uncommon, sure enough ; but you see, gintlemen, you must remitnber that the fox is the cunnin'ist baste in the world, barrin' the wren." Here Paddy was questioned why he considered the wren as cunning a baste as the fqx. " Why, sir, bekase all birds builds their nest with one bole to it only, excep'n the wren ; but the wren builds two holes on the nest, so that it any inimy comes to disturb it upon one door, it can go out on the other ; but the fox is cute to that degree, that there's many a fool to him, and, by dad, the fox could buy and sell many a Christhian, as you'll see W and by, whin I tell you what happened to a wood-ranger that I knew wanst, and a dacent man he was. " Well, you see, he came-home one night, mighty tired,.* for he was out-wid a party in the domain, cock-shootin' that I Q day ; and when he got back to his lodge, he threw a few logs mu o'wood on the fire to make himself comfortable, and he took whatever little matther he had for his supper, and,' afther sT that, he felt himself so tired that he wint to bed. But you're' to undherstan' that, though he wint to bed, it was more for to to rest himself, like than to sleep, for it was early ;• and- so he, ;tit jist wint into bed, and there he diverted himself lookin' at,id the fire, that was blazin' as merry as a bonfire on the hearth. , :n Well, as he was lyin' that-a-way, jist thinkin' o' nothin • at all, what should come into the place but a fox ? But I ; , .: 1 must tell you, what I forgot to tell you before, that the,la ranger's house was on the bordhers o' the wood, and he had no one to live wid him but himself, barrin' the dogs that he had the care iv, that was his only companions, and he had a hole cut on the door, with a swingin board to it, that the dogs might go in or out, atcordin' as it plazed them ; and . by dad, the fox came in, as I tould you, through the hole in the door, as bould as a ram, and walked over to the fire, and sat down forninst it. Now, it was mighty provokin ' that all the dogs was out ; they wor rovin' about the woods, you see, lookin' for to ketch rabbits to ate, or some other mischief, and it so happened that there wasn't as much as one individual dog in the place ; and I'll go bail the fox knew that right well before he put his nose inside the ranger's lodge. Well, the ranger was in hopes that some o' the dogs id come home and catch the chap, and he was loath to stir hand or fat himself, afeared ov freigtenin away the fox; but he could hardly keep his temper at all at all, whin he seen the fox take the pipe aff o' the hob, where he lift it afore he went to bed, and puttin' the bowl o' the pipe into the fire to kindle it (it's as thrue as I'm here) he began to smoke forninst the fire as nath'ral as any other man you ever seen. Musha, bad luck to your impudence, you long-tailed blackguard!' says the ranger, and is it smokin' my pipe you are ? Oh thin, by this and by that, if I had my gun convay nient to me, it's fire and smoke of another sort, and what you wouldn't bargain for, I'd give you,' said he. So, with that, he watched until the fox wasn't mindin' him, but was busy shakin' the cinders out o' the pipe whin he was • done wid it, and so the ranger thought he was gom' to go im. mediately afther gettin' an air o' the fire and a shaugh o' the pipe ; and says he, Fails, my lad, I wont let you go so airy as all that, as cunnin' as you think yourself; and with that, he made a dart out o' bed, and ran over to the door, and got'' tr between it and the fox ; and, now,' says he, ' your bread's baked, my buck, and maybe my lord won't have a fine rutift out o' you, and the dogs at your brish every yard, you T0`..1 0 radin' thief, and the divil mind you,' says he, ' for your =l t , pudence ; for sure if you hadn't the impidence of a highway-1 wan's horse, it's not into my house, under my very nose, y o u daar for to come ;" and with that, he began to whistle for that dogs : and, the fox, that stood eyeing him, all the while hid was spakin', began to think it was time to be joggin' whin tri he heard the whistle, and says the fox to himself, Throth k .,,, indeed, you think yourself a mighty great ranger now,' say& he, and you think you're very cute ; but, upon my tail, anel that's a big oath, I'd be long sorry to let sich a malleti4 headed bog-throtter as yourself take a dirty advantage o' me,fi and I'll engage,' says the fox, I'll make you lave the doo; soon and suddent ;' • and, with that, he turned to where the ~ ranger's brogues was lying, hard by, beside the tire, awl," what would you think, but the fox tuk up one o' the briwls.' and wint over to the fire, and threw it into it. I think that'll make you start,' says the fox. r Not a bit,' says the ranger ; ` that won't do, my brick,' says he ; the brogue may burn to cindhers,' says he, but out o' this i won't stir;' and thin puttin' his fingers into his mouth, he gave a blast of a whistle you'd hear a mile off, and shouted for the dogs. So that wont do,' says the fox. Well, I must thry another offer,' says he ; and, with that, he tuk up the other brogue, and threw it into the fire too. ` There pow,' says he, you may keep the other company,' says he, and there's a pair o' you now, as the divil said to his knee-buckles.' Oh, you thievin' varmint !' says the ranger, 'you wont lave me a tack to my feet ; but no matther, says h e; your head'sworth more than a pair o' brogues to me, any d a y ; an d bmYini 3 emnogneerys in my pocket this was in his mouth u th r' e fingers again, and he was goin' to whistle, whin, w h a t wou ld yet i the Eiger says j o i e ' , B and, liss in Ns g it°thw n, Your think, but up sits the fox on his hunkers, and puts his twot fore paws into his mouth, makin' game o' the ranger. Well, the ranger, no wondher, though in a rage, as he Wakilr.goUldo he l p langhin' at the thought o' the fox mockin' him, and dad, he tuk such a fit o' laughin' that he couldn't whittle, and that was the cuteness o' the fox to gain time ; but `i+lien his first laugh was over, the ranger recovered himself and gev another whistle ; and so says the fox, By my sowl h!t says he, I think it wouldn't be good for my health to stay here much longer, and I mustn't be thriflin' with that Week guard ranger any more,' says he, and I must make Mu sinsible that it is time to let me go ; and though he haslet undherstan'in' to be sorry for his brogues, I'll go baill'l make him lave that, says he, before he'd say sparables ;' and with that, what do you think the fox clone ? Why, he took a lighted piece o' log out o' the blazing fire, and rah over wid it to the ranger's bed, and was gom' to throw It into the straw and burn him out of house and home ; so whin the ranger saw that, he gave a shout— ' Halo, hillo ! you murdherin' villin I' says he, `.you're worse nor Captain Rock! is it goin' tohurn me out youare, you red rogue of a Ribbonman !' and he made a dart betyfeen him and the bed, to save the housofrom being burned ; tut, my jew'l, that was all the fox wanted ; and as soon as the ranger quitted the hole in the door that he was standin' forninst, the fox let go the blazin' faggit, and made one jump through the door and escaped. But before he whit, the fox turned round and gave r the ranger the most contemptible look he ever got in hislife, and showed every tooth in his head with laughin' ;' and at last he put out his tongue at him, as much as to say, " You've missed me, like your mammy's blessin' l' and off wid him— like a flash o' lightnin' !" THE NEW ART OF PAINTING BY SOLAR LI GHT.--This dis covery will, doubtless, make a great revolution in the art of design, and in a multitude of cases will supersede old me thods, altogether inferior. The temporary interest of many may at first be affected, but whatever has the true charaeter of good cannot essentially do mischief. The inventienvbf printing soon gave employinent to many more than were em ployed as copyists. Even in our own time, the substitution of steel plates for , engraving instead of copper, although fifty times as many copies may be taken from them, has, by the substitution of good engravings for indifferent atm, so extended the demand, that more steel plates are now required than were formerly used of copper.—.
