VAIIXETIES. Tun RETORT UNCOURTEOES.—At the last Houghton meet ing, a puppy, who pride ttiniAelf on his knowledge of coats and niuning horses, saw his old tutor, Dr. H—, approaching. " Ah, Doctor!" cried lie, "How d'yc do? What brings , you near a course, eh ? Do vou think, now, you can distin guish a horse from a donkey, ell?" "Sir," replied the offended classic, "I perceived you among all the horses."—Gentleman's Magazine of Fashion. When James, the seventh Earl of Derby, held for his sove reign, King Charles, the Isle of Man, Oliver Cromwell sent him a letter, offering him his own terms ii he would deliver him up the island: to which the Earl delivered the. following spirited answer:—" I received your letter with indignation, and with scorn I return you, this answer—that L cannot buti wonder whence you should gather any hopes from me, that I should (like you) prove treacherous to my sovereign; since you can not be insensible 'of my former actings in his late. Majesty's service; from which principles of loyalty I am no way departed. —I scorn your proffers; I disdain your favours; I abhor your treasons; and ant so for from deliveriug this island to your ad vantage, that I wilL keep it to the utmost of my power to your destruction.—Take this final answer, and. forbear any further solicitations; for. if you trouble me with any more messages on this occasion, I will burn the paper and hang the bearer.—This is the iinninfable resolution, aud shall be the. undoubted practice of him, who accounts it the chiekst glory. to be, ".

NAuscorza.—The Monthly Magazine contains a eurious.pa per on the art of discoVering the approach of vessels frOm laud when one hUndred leagues distant f The inventor of this ex traorcLinary facility is said to have been aM. Bottineau. From 17d8 to 1752, dttring *bleb he resided in the Isle of France, ',lie had announced, the arrival of 575_ vessels, many of their four daps before they Were visible from the shore. 'l'o this fart, in credible as. it may appear, a great number of naval and military officers are said to have borne testimony. M. Bottineati was trea.i,ed a's a Visitinary or an impostor in Prance, and died some years. ago without reaping any benefit from his discovery. The :11onthty has kublished several of his certificates, bearing the uaine.s.of well-known men of science, and other marks of their authenticity. The most startling part of the business is, that M. Bottineau preferred to make his observations with his naked eye rather titan with a telescope. Persons tried upon insufficient evidence and. acquitted, can never be tried again for the same offence, however strong the new and subsequent facts may be which may have been discovered. Not so with persons discharged by . magistrates for want of evi• deuce, who may be again and again apprehended till the facts are brought home to them. This state of the law renders it ex tremely desirable, especially in cases of great magnitude and in terest, that persons should not be committed on insufficient evi dence, which, of necessity, amounts to an absolute acquittal. NoVEL RECOMMEISDATION.—One day, when the late Lord Chancellor Thurlow was busily engaged, a poor curate applied to-him for a living which was then vacant. "Don't trouble me," said the Chancellor, turning from him with his frowning brow, "don't you see I am busy, and can't- listen to you?— What Duke or Lord recommended you ?" The poor curate lifted his head, and said, " He had no Lord to recommend him but ' the Lord of Hosts.' " " The Lord of Hosts," replied the Chancellor, " the Lord of Hosts ! I- believe I have had recom mendations from most Lords, but do not recollect one from him before; and so, do you hear, young man, you shall. have the living; and be careful to conduct yourself so as not to disgrace yolk!. recommendation." A ST R ANGE singular circumstance is. recorded as - having happened in the early part of this King , s reign, or in the, latter years .of his father's. Bome fishermen of Orford ca,uglit in their nets what the chroniclers Call a fish, but which they describe as "resembling' iii shape a wild or sai'pge man: he was naked, and in all hiS limbs and members resembling the right proportion of a man ; he had hairs also on the usual rarts of his body, albeit that the crown of his head was bald, his beard was long and rugged, and his breast hairy." The fishermen presented him to Sir Bartholomew de Glanville, who had then the keeping of Orford Castle. When meat was set before him be greedily devoured it; and he ate fish, whether rawor boiled, only pressing in his hands those that were raw, till he had squeezed out the moisture. "He Would get him to his couch at the setting of the sun, and rise again at the rising of the same.* He would not, or could not, utter any speech; although', to try him, they hung him up by the heels, and miser ably tormentedhim." ilia althr usage must have been exceed ingly 'kind, and he must have been of a forgiving temper not to resent this cruelty ; for it seems that be was welt reconciled to living ashore. One day they took him to the haven, and; en closing a part of it with,thcir strong, nets, to prevent, as they thought, his escape; they let him take the water for his diver sion. He presently div_ed under the, nets, rose beyond them, sported about as if mocking at his keepers, and then, of his own accord, returned- to them . , and:remained their guest about two months longer; then, being weary or a land life, he took an -opportunity of stealing-to- sea. Strange as-this story . is, and in credible.as it will be deemed by most readers, it is inserted here, because there is complete evidence that a similar circum stance occurred in the latter part of the seventeenth century, on the coast of Spain, with this remarkable difference, that the man who had there chosen an aquatic life was recognised, and the history of his disappearance known at the place where he was supposed to have eeendrowned in bathing : he was carried back to his mother's h o us e , remained there nine years, and then took up again to the water.—Lardner's CgClopedia. MELaLE. SANDIE GORDON AND WEE SANDIE GORDON-- In the days of the Stuarts, the chief of the name of Gordon, a good soldier and a steady Catho.ic, resided chiefly abroad, lacy niz his Scottish lands to the , care of two stewards of his own c:au, distinguishedamong the peasantry by .the names of Mei kie-SandiOGOrdon and Wee Sandie Gordon. It happened that one Ramsay rented a small farm on the Gordon estate; and, though the land . was stony, and rank with broom and thistles, it was his own birth-place, and, that. of- his ancestors ; so he Nyjsbed,the lease. renewed. The two stewards hadotber views; thtioly refused to renew the lease, and the old farmer was about. to emigrate, when his Grace of Gordon came, unexpectedly from abroad: He asked for.aud,obtained an audience.

The following complaint of a Country Farmer about the Penay Maga- rine, is addressed to its Editor : I am sorry to complain, Sir, But daily though I try, it livelihood to gain, Sir, The poorer still am I ; My wife and I were well to do, No happier pair was seen ; Alas t we owe Our ruin to The Penny Magazine. Our son was very dutiful. And minded all we said ; Our daughter work'd as beautiful As any lady's maid : 13ut, ah! they both are useless now, (Whate'er they may have been) And leave the needle and the plough For the Penny Magazine. I thought that my good dame and I, Amidst our weekly labours, Knew how to add and multiply As well as all our neighbours. " The newest fashion," Robin cries, " Here father, may be seen ;" And then he pops before my eyes The Penn!, Magazine. I flew into a passion, Which indeed I could not help ; " Don't talk to me of fashion," Said I, " you saucy whelp, To say you're wiser than yuur dad, If that is what you mean ; I'm sorry that you ever had The Penny Magazine." My chickens, ducks, and dairy, No longer pay my rent; The mornings of oar Mary So sadly are misspent ; Instead of poultry feeding, Or milking on the green, She's in the cow-house reading The Penny Magazine. I found our Tom and Robin in the field below the mill, ➢lounted on Ball and Dobbin, While the plough was standing stlll : " What are ye doing, Robin, Tom 1" Cried I ; " what is't you mean 7" They answer'd—" Getting' laming from The Penny Magazine." The tailor, the exciseman, The barber, and the Clown,. each wants to be a wiseman, The same as " folks in town ;" The potboy, ostler, boots as well; Nay, those who come to glean, All seem to take delight to Spell The Penny Magazine. bly house is gone to ruin, My land into decay, And this is all your doing, For thus the people say : " Learning is better than house and lard, And labour makes us lean ;" Perhaps you thought so when you plann'd The Penny Magazine. rot , poor folks, who their daily bread By daily labour earn, To use their hands, and nbt their head, 'Tis better fir to learn ; Six days to work—a happy lot — When Sunday comes between, The Bible letus read—and not The Penny Magazine. TWELVE RULES OF CONDUCT FOR A TURKISH WIFE. The following twelve rules of the conduct for a Turkish wife towards her husband are taken from an amusing novel, called "The Atusselman:"— Ist.—Obey . your husband, for he is your lawful master; he paid your price, and made you presents, therefore he is your sultan; his right aria is your protection, and the edge of his sword, it needs be, your punishment. 2nd.—Love your husband if you possibly can, and if you cannot, do not hate him; for it is your duty to cherish and make much of him. 3rd.—lie mindful ever of the respect you owe him, for he is your lord; salaam him in the morning with a respectful-greet ing, and, When you present his first pipe to him, kiss his hand, and bend.. your knee, and sit not in his presence till he has twice desired you to be seated. 4th.— When you quarrel with the other wom e n, d o it-b e hi n d his back, and if they rival you in his favour, let him not see your jealousy, that he may not hate you, for jealous wives are always hateu;, and if he smile on the slaves while you are rub bing.his feet, still do it gently, and let him not see that you are weary of pleasing him. sth.—When you dance before him, move not your limbs too much, like the Almes, whose voluptuous movements you have no occasion to imitate, but dance like a modest wife and not like a wanton. Gth.—Remember your face was made for your husband, therefore let no human being but him behold it; for it is only the Christian women who have no shame, who show their fea tures, and.are inconsistent enough to conceal their necks, and expose their bare visages. 7th.—Neither, like these unfortunate women, be seen in the street with strangers; do you, who are a Moslem woman, and know what is monesty, when you are addressed by au ,impudent passenger, never lift your veil but to spit on tue•wretch who mistakes you for the wife of a Frani. Bth.-1.1 your husband be old, it is needless to plague him; pray to the Apostle to endow you with patience; and, though you are entitled to more recreation than other women, do not irequeut the bath too much before the good old man has made his will. 9th.--If a foolish Effendi throw, a sunbul in your path you must not stoop to pick it up, nor tell your slave to do so, that would be unworthy_of a virtuous wife; but slaves will pick up flowers, and Jews will deliver impertinent messages, and bath women will convey insolent love letters of cloves and charcoal and a woman of discretion ought never to be accused of re ceiving any, present or communication of the sort. ' 10th.—Make your breast the sole depository of your own secrets, and if it be possible, make it that of your husband's also; the more you know of his secrets, the more.you possess; the less he knows of yours, the smaller is the risk of your con fidence being abused. your husband beat you, and your lungs be healthy, rend the air with your screams out, and cry murder and rapine from the street windows.; a nd if all fail to collect the rabble and shame your lord, shout the zanganoar, till the guard and firmer. fill the - house, cud retu se t o go t i ll th ey - are paid for their trouble. 12th,—If •he threaten to drown you, make a friend of the Cadi's Wife, and if she cannot assist you, nobody can: if he threaten the sack twice, it is time to think of a divorce—a separate maintenance is a great calamity ? the allowance is always small, but some women think it pleasanter to be di vorced thandrowned ; it is a matter of taste, my child; in which it is difficult to advise. NAPOLEON'S ARSlS.—Napoleou, by his. will, made at St. Helena, left to his son his arms, which he thus described " My arias-namely, my sword, the same which I wore at Austerlitz ; the sabre of Sobiesky, my poniard, my cutlass, &c." Messrs. Bertrand, Marchand, and other companions of Napoleon's exile were appointed depositories, and were to trans mit the objects deposited in their hands to the son of Napoleon, on his attaining the age of 16. When,yeinig Napoleon became of age, he was lahouringunder a mortal disease, and died be fore he could receive his., father's legacy. The objects are still in the hands of the depositaries, who have thought proper to take counsel's opinion as to what they are to do in order to he le ga ll y di sengage d • f rom responsibility . M. Patorny, an Advocate of the Royal Court of . Paris, has drawn up an opinion, in which h e p roposes t h e f o ll ow i ng three questions D o th e arias of Napoleon belong to Maria Louisa, that is to say, the . Austrian? Do they beiong. to the tattier's 'family at Rothe? De they belong to the French . nation ? "—The opinion of Messrs. Odilon Barrot, Paillet, and Philip Dupin irs con formity with that of M. Patorny, is that we arms of Napoleon are natio.ual property, arol.that the Suite has a right to claim: them . to be deposited in,a public establishment. STAGE COACHES. A few years after the substitution of the vehicular for the equestrian mode of transporting travellers from the principal provincial towns to London, an honourable M.P. of that day was of opinion that the country was on the verge of total ruin from this innovation on ancient usages. To prove this, he printed what is in our day called " The Substance of a Speech," which he delivered in Parlia ment and sent forth to the world .under the imposing title of " The grand Concern of England explained, in 1673," presenting a curious specimen of legislative reasoning with a view to the preservation of partial interests instead of promoting the general good. We subjoin an extract from this speech, which was most likely lauded as con taining " unanswerable arguments" and as being " une qualled in the perspecuity and variety of its details." " Formerly every man that had occasion to travel many joni nies yearly, or to ride up and down, kept horses for hinisuif and servants, and seldom rid without one or two then; but now, since every man can have a passage into every place he is to travel unto, or unto some place within a few miles of it, they have left keeping horses, and travel without servants ; and York, Chester, and Exeter stage coaches, each of them with forty horses a piece, carry eighteen passengers a week from London to either of these places, and, in like manner, as mane• in return from these to London, which come, in the whole, to 1872 in the year. Now, take it for granted, that all that are carried from London to these places are the same that are brought back, yet are there 936 passengers carried by 40 horses, whereas, were it.not for these coaches, at least 500 horses would be required to perform this work. "These coaches and caravans hinder the consumption of all sorts of provisions for man and beast, thereby bringing down the rents of lands. For instance, a coach with four horses car ries six passengers, a caravan with four or five horses carries twenty or twenty-five. These, when they come to their hin, club together for a dish or two of meat, and, having no servants with them„spend not above twelvepence or sixteenp . enee a piece •at a place, yet perhaps use four, five, or six pair of sheets. Horses they have none, but what draw them; and f o r th ose th e coachmen agree with the innkeeper aforehand to have their hay and oats at so hitv a rate that he loseth by them, and is forced to beat down the price of them in the market, yet must let the coachman have them for what he pleaseth, otherwise he carries his passengers to other inns; by which means the inn •holders get little or nothing, cannot" pay their rent, nor hold their inns, without great abatement. 'I wo-thirds of what they formerly paid is, in some places, abated. Upon such accounis as these, innhoiders, where these coaches do come, are undone; and if so, since most travellers travel in coaches, what must be come of all the rest of the inns on the road where these coaches stay not? Believe it, they are a considerable number, take all the grand roads in England, as York, Exeter, Chester, &c., there are about 500 inns on each road, and those coaches do not call at more than 15 or 16 of them ; then what must follow, but that the rest are undone, and their landlords lose their rents. " If the gentleman, the tradesman, the husbandman, the gra 'ziers, be not benefitted by this travelling, I am sure the 14,4 sort of travellers, to wit, the poor, they cannot he profited thereby ; for waggons, or the long coaches first invented, and still in use, wouhl be most for their interest to travel in, being far less expensive than the other, so that these running coaches are not most beneficial to every sort of travellers. Men do not travel in these coaches at less expense of money or time than on horseback; for on horseback they may travel faster, and, if they please, all things duly considered, with as little, if not less, charges. " For instance, from London to Exeter, Chester, or York, you pay forty shillings a piece in summer time, forty-tive shil lings in winter, for your passage, and as much from those places back to London ; besides, in the journey, they change coach men four times ; and the re a re f ew p assengers but give twelve pence to each coachman at the end of his stage, which comes to eight shillings in the journey backward and forward, and at least three shillings comes to each of the passengers share, to pay for coachmen's drink on the road; so that in summer time the passage backward and forward to any of these places costs four pounds eleven shillings, in the winter five pounds one shil ling, and this only : for eight days riding in the summer, and twelve in the winter. Then, when the passengers come to Lon don, they must have lodgings, which, perhaps, may cost them five or six shillings a week, and that in fourteen days amounts to ten or twelve shillings, which makes the four pounds eleven shillings either five pound one shilling, or five pound three shil lings; or the five pound one shilling fire pound eleven shillings, or five pound thirteen shillings, besides the inconveniency of having meat from the cooks at double the price they might have it for in inns. " But if stage coaches were down, and men travelled again, as formerly, on horseback; then, when they came into their inns, they would pay nothing for lodgings ; and as there would be excellent horses bred and kept by gentlemen for their own use, so would there be by others that would keep them on purpose to let, which would, as formerly, be let at ten or twelve shillings a week, and in many places for six, eight or nine; but admitting the lowest price to be twelve,_ if a man comes from York, Exeter or Chester, to London, be five days coming, five days going, and stay twelve days in London to dispatch his business, (which is the most that country chapmen usually do stay,) all this would be 'but three weeks; so that his horse hire would come hut to £1 165.; his horse meat at 14d. per day, one with another, whiCh is the highest that can be reckoned upon, would come but to £1 55.; 111 all £ 3 Is.: so that there would be, a t least, forty or fifty shillings saved of what coach hire and lodg. ings will cost him. " From Northampton, men pay for passage in coach to Lon don 16s. and so much back ; from Bristol Zs.; from Bath 208. ; from Salisbury 20s. or 255. ; fr om R ea di ng 7 s . ; t h e lik e sums back ; and so in proportion for longer or shorter stages. Judge then, whether men may not hir e h orses c h eaper at ss. per day. I am sure they may for half the money, especially if coaches were put down, that men might receive encouragement. - • - " It is the case but of very few, that the suppressing of them would hurt; for if all stage coaches were to be suppressed, I dare say five to one of those that keep them would receive advantage thereby, as clearly will be evinced, if it be consi dered, that, when this business was before his Majesty in council, where it depends undetermined, none of the stagers opposed the being put down, exce pt E xe t er Salisbury, Dor chester, Bristol„Southampten, Dover, Norwich, Lincoln, York, Chester, Worcester, and Snrewsbury, who call themselves stage coachmen upon the grand roads of England; and there is not an owner of any of these coaches, but hath other ways to live, if he were prohibited driving them; for they are all of them either innholders, or coach or harness makers, following those trades, or carriers, or licensed coachmen in London; and may live as well as the hackney coachmen in London. The other stage coaches may all, or most of them, kept either by innholders first, who (one iu a town') did set up a coach, and so carried all the guests to his own house. Then a second set up another, and so a third and fourth in a town; which done, they run one against another, purposely to get the guests from ea c h others' . houses; whereby they not only destroy multitudes of horses, but are great losers themselves; s o th a t th emse l ves would be thankful to have them put down, and yet are forced to keep them up, till there shall be a general suppression, .be cause they shall otherwise lose their whole trades. ' Were this honest gentleman re-animated just long enough to take a run from London to Manchester, in 21 hours, by the mail, and pursue his journey• to Liverpool by the Railroad, what would he say now ? A Friar who' asks alms for God's sake, asks for two.—(Span ish.) A great city is a great solitude. God keep me from him whom I trust, from him whom I. trust not, I shall keep myself. Examine not the pedigree nor patrimony of a good,man.. Keep out of a hasty man's way for a while ant of a sullen man's all the days of your life. Change of weather finds discourse for fools. If you would know the worth of a ducat,.go and liorrow one. Great virtue 'seldom descends. Let nothing affright you.but sin. Do wellio whom you will ;—do any harm, and look to your self. He who - Marries a widow will have a dead man's head often ; thrown in his dish.—(Spanish.) twept when I was born, and every day shovrs why. Keep your money, niggard, live miserably, that ,your heir may squander it away. 1 A fog cannot be dispelled by a fan.—(Japanese.)—"An in stance this how popular sayings are derived from local objects, or from allusions to peculiar customs. The coast - of Japan is subject to fogs, and 'both sexes, from the age of five years, carry, • fans "—awl so, in like manner, of many whimsical sayings and 1-prOverbs.
