The crim inality of the act was qualified by an ingenuous confession, that he did not know what it was when he fired at it; the bird was brought in to show us, and then given me . that I might show it to your godson, owls and monkeys being of all created things those of which he has acquired the greatest liking from his graphic studies.

Words worth and his wife were here, and as there was no sin in eating the owl, I ordered it to be dressed and brought in, in the place of game, that day at dinner. T. ..t was served up fellow it was, witiiout the head, and Wsquat-looking about the size of a large wild pigeon, but broader in pro protion to its length. The meat -was more like bad mut ton than anything else. Wordsworth was not valiant enough to taste it.

AN UNEQUAL MATCH.—The Plymouth (lazetie men tions that a shoemaker of that. place, nearly six feet high, and tittle more than twenty years .old, it tdrotit to be mat• ried to Miss Plinsaul, who is three feet high and fifty, years old. The maiden was long in the service of Lady Rolle, who gave her a substantial legacy, and the late Lord Rolle has left her a further annuity of £2OO a !veer. Mr. C. B. Baldwin, M. 1"., was on Tuesday stepping from a Gravesend steamer into a small boat off Purficet, when he missed his footing and fell into the water. The boatman incautiously threw one of the oars to him, and in consequence of the strong tide was unable to make much way with the other. Fortunately Mr. Baldwin is a good swimmer, and after being carried nearly half a mile succeeded in regaining the boat. Charles Surrage, a boatman at Oxford, in attempting to steer a party home at night in a house-boat from None ham, where they had been making a gala-day, fell over board in a state of intoxication, and was drowned. He was not missed till the boat struck the bank for want of a steerer, and the night being dark, no traces could be dis covered of him, and his body was not found till four days afterwards. Loss OF POUR PERSONS —A painful sensation has his week, in consequence of Sunderland tl the supposed loss of four persons who went to sea in a small boat, on Sunday evening week, on a pleasure trip, during a tremendous gale of wind. 'rhe party consisted of two men and two young women, and, whatever may have been their fate, nothing certain had been heard up to Friday. and little doubt can be entertained that they have not all perished. DANGEROUS PRACTICE.—On Tuesday two sisters named Chalker were swinging in one c these dangerous achines called highflyers, at Cunt Mr. Gott to have durinf kurnal who is retirin Tug BEER TRADE.—By an act of parliament We.- was passed last week, a duty of ls. 4d. per cwt. hag been imposed on sugar used in the brewing of beer, to costs= mence from the sth of July next. From the 10th - of Oc tober next, brewers are not to sell at any other place than their licensed brewing premises, or on premises licensed fur the express purpose. Brewers may take out a license for the sale of beer at any other place as well as their brewing premises. Taking orders for the sale of beer is not to he deemed selling beer at any other than their licensed houses. _ A REFRACTORY BOSJESMAN. — During the exhibition of these people at Totness on Tuesday last one of them slipped off the stage and into the caravan unobserved. In a moment dreadful shrieks were heard therefrom, at which the ladies were much alarmed. The exhibitor begged the company to remain, as there was nothing to fear. From his statement it appeared that the elder man had a few days before quarrelled with his wife, who remained in the caravan, and taking advantage of the keeper's absence, he had gone and beaten her severely. He was soon quieted, but would not again come before the audience. • NEW CUSTOMS AcT.—An act to amend the laws re lating to customs has just come into force. This act pro hibits the importation into the United Kingdom of any extracts, essences, or other concentration of coffee, chicory, tea, or tobacco, or any admixture of the same. Witnesses refusing to attend or to give evidence may be fined £5O. The export duty of 4s. per ton on coals is now repealed. All manufactured goods are to be deemed to be the produce of the country of which they are the manufacture. No abatement of duties shall be made on account of any damage received by any corn, grain, meal, or flour imported into the United Kingdom. SALMON Ftsurscs.—We have just had the Lammas floods, but they don't bring up salmon, for salmon there are few or none to bring. The season has been a most unproductive one to our tacksmen. From whatever cause, there seems to be a general decay of red fish in our wes tern Scottish rivers. The Glasgow Courier of Tuesday says :--" A few weeks will terminate the present salmon fishing season. On the Clyde—once famous for the ex tent and richness of its takes—it has been the most un successful upon record. Since the month of March, when the fishing begins, we believe there have not been 40 salmon killed between Glasgow and the mouth of the river." Such a fact as that is quite extraordinary.— Dumfries Herald. DREADFUL MURDER.—On Friday the inhabitants of Gloucester were alarmed to hear that a man had killed his wife between that city and Bristol. A man named Miller, accompanied by his wife and another person, was pro ceeding on the Bristol-road from Gloucester with a dog- cart containing their wares, they being travelling hawkers, when they quarrelled, and after a few angry words the man struck his wife a violent blow on the left breast, about the region of the heart. The woman was knocked into the ditch by the roadside, where she lay for a few moments, when, not rising, the other man became alarm ed, and with the assistance of the husband, pulled her out of the ditch, but life was found to be quite extinct. Miller was conveyed to the Glocester lack-up. NARROW ESCAPE.—On Wednesday, the carriage of Andrew Liddell, Esq. of Plean, was passing near to Grahamstown (where the operations are going on for carrying the Stirlingshire Midland Railway under the canal), when the horse started suddenly from the noise made by an engine erected by the roadside, and backed instantly, with all it contained, into the canal. There were in it at the time the lady of Mr. Liddell and the coachman both of whom were plu ;ed overheat The coachman, after securirg his own safety, made in for Mrs. Liddell, who had sunk the second time, and providentially caught hold of her, and brought her to the bank ; and she has now nearly recovered from the effects of the accident. The horse attached to the carriage was drowned.—Edinburgh Advertiser, STItANGE ACCIDENT.—A horse belonging to Mr. Samuel Taylor, butcher, of Ipswich, was sent out to grass in Mr. Fonnereau's park. On Sunday morning, a son of the owner went to see it, and, to his surprise, found the poor animal with its shoulder completely pierced through by a thick bough of a tree. The assistance of Mr. Long, the veterinary surgeon, was sought, but it was as much as two men could do to draw the stump out of the animal's body, when the injuries proved to be so great that the animal was at once despatc:ied. It is not known how his injury was occasioned, but it is supposed that the es had anncyed the mare, which was a valuable and '‘ , -spirited creature, and that she had so violently 1 upon the point of the hough as to pierce it com r gh her shoulder TALE OF N .

Both the com hatadts were partially intoxicated, and deceased more so than the other. They had had no quarrel, but Watson, having challenged Walley to light, the proposal was im mediate!, accepted, in spite of the expostulations of the bystanders. They fought three rounds, at the end of which Walley became insensible, and was carried home. lie died the following day from compression of .the brain. It appeared that the deceased had been engaged in a fight with a brother of Thomas Watson, just before the fatal encounter took place. The jury returned a verdict of manslaughter against Thomas Watson, who was delivered into the custody of the police. The deceased man was 46 years old, and has left a widow and eight children. CROPS IN SCOTLAND.—We regret to announce that the gale of Saturday night, Sunday, and Monday has considerably damaged the crops iu tke neighbourhood of Edinburgh. A correspondent, writing to us from Dal keitb, says that " the wind has shaken out of the grain nearly a boll an acre. The stooks were blown down on Sunday and even tossed about the fields with the utmost violence. There can be no doubt that the damage is considerable." From other quarters in the neighbour hood we hear that many fields of oats are so injured and shaken as scarcely to be worth cutting down. Since our last the weather has been cold, accompanied by showers of rain, which must have materially retarded harvest operations. We have the best authority for stating, however, that with regard tooth e potato crop there has been as yet not the slightest a ppearance of disease. — Edinburgh Post. CHARGES OF FORGERY AGAINST A WAKEFIELD TRADESMAN.—On Tuesday last the chief constable of Wakefield apprehended William Ramsden, painter, of Kirkgate, on a charge of forgery. The accused was taken before the magistrate, at the court house, and the charge formally laid against him. It would seem from what little of the particulars of the case transpired that Ramsden is charged with forging, in the first instance, the acceptance of Joseph Wilby and Son, of Ossett, near 'Wakefield, for £9 15s. The forged acceptance was dated August 7th, in the present year, and purporting to be payable at Messrs. Denison and Co.'s, bankers, London. The second charge against Ramsden is for forging a guarantee, purporting to be signed by " John Hargreaves," directing Mr. B. Hirst, of Leeds, to deliver to him, Ramsden, £5 worth of goods. The case was adjourned, and Ramsden was removed in custody. ATTACK OF A HORSE.—On Thursday week, as a boy, named Alfred Reville, in the service of Mr. Wm. Parsons, solicitor, Sherwood Rise, was crossing the Nottingham race-course on his return home, he was suddenly attacked by a horse in the following singular manner :—The animal laid hold of him on the arm near the shoulder, and lifted him from the ground. The boy cried loudly for help, and the horse letting go his hold, he fell upon the course, and endeavoured to crawl away on his hands and knees. The horse, however, followed him, and tried to tread on him with its fore feet, but the boy instantly got up and had the presence of mind to seize the horse by the nose, and retain his hold until a friend came to the rescue and drove the animal away. The boy soon after fell again through weakness, and was with difficulty got home. The wound on the arm caused by the teeth of the horse, was found to be very serious, and without proper treatment, might have been injurious to the boy through life. He is, however, out of danger, and is rapidly re covering.—Nottingham Mercury. . . —At the STRANGE SCENE IN A WiLSII CITAPEI Caerphilly Baptist Chapel, on a recent Sabbath night, while the service was Troceeding, an excited person named Rees Thomas, who has a number of aliases, denly leaped out of one of the rising pews in the gallery, and dashing over two others, kicked away the capping of the backs, and flung himself down stairs, with uncovered head, outstretched arms, and the chapel at or became a scene of terrible confusior a panic seizing all who witnessed the extraordint of Thomas. The minister was silenced; the rns door was over-powering ; the roof was falling some ; the chapel was nn fire, shouted others ; while the cries of trampled children, the screams of females, and the struggles of the men, made the occasion one of the most distressing character.

Now, Lnpton's propeller, which we also noticed, is a continuous one; every revolution gives out the full power of the engine to the propulsion of the vessel, and although the blades pro ject but two feet, they are equally effective in power as a float at right angles with the vessel's side of six feet, from their peculiar angular position. As we before observed, their having been adopted in the Great Britain previous to her last lamentable voyage, is a proof of the principle being founded on scientific principles ; and we think it would be found worthy the attention of any party having connection with steam navigation to endeavour to get a trial in one boat, which could be - fitted at small cost, when it is probable a degree of speed and saving of fuel would be obtained which would astonish those who persist in thinking the paddle-wheel the ne plus ultra of steam navigation.—Mining Journal. —and that if n t on account a opp that the young gallant bad ly woed more favotired by the lac: had determined to elope closed to the father of that another youth was .ents, and that the lovers The secret was dis- ly hearing this wrote at one Macdonald, and the young y own Donad, we must eleven.

The complainant's husband and her me dical at tendi.nt, testified to the injuries she bad received.

The magistrates, after a most attentive hearing, said, that unless a settlement took place, they would commit defendant to prison ; but we understand the matter was afterwards compromised by the payment of a sum of money and all costs, the defend ant persisting in it that" Hetty Cooper were still a witch," and in this opinion, strange to say, she does not stand alone ! _ N.

TERRA-COTTA TABLETS FOR TOMBSTONES. --In turn ing over the leaves of a new work on pottery and porce lain, we are incidentally led into the reflection that the ancients almost anticipated and stole from us an idea, ex clusively, as we had thought, The Builder's — nam el Y , that terra-cotta—a sort of pottery, in fact—would be an an excellent, because a cheap durable, material for funereal in monuments or tombstones, for the poore r classes, if - scribed with the names and genealogical correlations ereof the dead before exposure to the patter!" fire. And h we must further strengthen the argument against the virgin novelty of our own suggestion by a brief allusion to a recent discovery of ancient customs, still more to the point than any, it may be to be gathered from known re cords, even when the volume alluded to was written.
