Exchequer to acknowledge , the favour of your letter of

THE, EA.RIST SALMON PiSirlNG.—The anglers on the.
Earn have enjoyed good sport the last ten days. The
number of salmon caught has been large, and the fislrgerie,
rally are in the best condition. The river appears to be so '
well stocked ,with salmon, that, t• ismo.uncommob ocenr-
frence, within the last few days,' foilinglers to kill in a
'few hours six, fish eaeh.' All' the prOprietors in the
.neighbourhood have given permission to fish. This has
been• the means of putting a stop to poaching during.
the close season, a practice which 'prevailed to a .great
extent in this locality in formers years._:_scots,"„.
The Rev. William Wordsworth Talfourd has been
appointed to the living of Wineeby, 'Lincolnshire. The
appointee is the second son of .the departed poet and '
judge; the living is in the gift of the Lord Chancellor.
Need we say more ? • Lord Campbell has done a very
graceful act, and has paid a moiCkipropriate tribute-to I
the memory of his old friend And colleague. Nor can it I
bu regarded,as.a mere piece of favouritism ; for all who
lkirow how Mr: Talfourd has laboured in the metro-
politan'etires whiehTha.ve been entrusted to him since he .
entered the ministry will willingly testify that, in con-
ferring upon him ,this welcome promotion, the right
ma has been put into the right place.,

interesting point of this proceeding; just as Mr. Harri4onl
was squaring and leVellinethe stone, a' crack was heard,',..
and immediately .the ..platform, With: the whc.le of the

prevailed ; and it was soon ascertained that providentially"

REMARKABLE
.SHOOTING: WILLIAM TELL ECLIPSED.
7—Mr..lirederick Whitehead, of this city, who is engaged
in Storm's' shooting gallery, on -Fourth-street, bids fair
to eclipse the world-renowned hero and-patriot, William
Tell. The other evening, while in the gallery, We saw
him shoot an apple from the head of 'another ,gentleman,-:
who stood at the diStance of ten Paces. What makes
this feat a remarkable one.is the fact that it was per-
formed with a pistol and ball, and not with an air gun,
which is. usually employed in shooting'. galleries. -The
m sae gentlenian stood off ten paces and. held. a seven
spat diamond card.in his hand. Mr. Whitehead, with
a pistol and ball, shot five spots out of the card. Cork

A MAD DOG IN A BEDCHAMBER AT MIDNIGHT.—Mr.
Owen Hamilton was aroused by his dog going mad in
the room:occupied by himself, and family: 'Lighting a
candle as quickly .
,possible, he saw the 'clog coming
towards him as if to make battle. Not knowing in the
moment of excitement what to do; he jumped upon the
bed ; but seeing the danger of his wife and children, and
having no Weapon at hand to kill him with, he made an
effort, and succeeded in catching the back of his neck.
After a desperate struggle,' he overpowered the dog.
Then came the trouble to despatch him—being almost,
tvercome in the struggle. The gun was brought., but 'it
was unloaded; the axe, but both hands were required to
'bold the dog. Finally a rope was procured, and' the
wife tied him. He was then killed.
THE AUTHENTIC -HISTORY OF THE OnIGIN OF THE
WARM WATER'CUME.—The City 'of Frankfoi-t is a great
and handsome city. and in it do -dwell many worshipful
burghers, whose riches are many, and they eat and drink
much as is the custom with: citizens ; thus it fortunes
that they are often ill. No' marvel, therefore, that in
Frankfort abide many doctors, who gain much money.
0 tclglass, when that he came there, by his ready wit soon
perceived the, better part. to take, and hired hiniself
'to be a dodoes man, and soon it was meet that he
shOuld go with his master and visit the patients. The
good Owlglass would much have desired to know
something of the names on the bottles which stood in
the hense of his master; but that could he not do, and,.
thereforeof all that his master dill he could learn nothing,
but that when people were sick they should drink warm
water and be "bloOded. It fortuned in no long time
thereafter, that his master had on a sudden to take a
journey, on such wise that he had' no time to tell the
patients thereof: Then spake he unto Owlglass, Ayitvg.
"Go thou about the city unto the sick, and say unto
them that in no long time shall I return untolhem."
Yet' the. cunning' Master Owlglass followed not his
master's saying„but, put on • his head the wig of his
master, and on his shoulders he bare his mantle. Then,
with a graYe'and noble demeanour,
he departed unto
the houses of the sick patients who sent for him. When
that he arrived be sat gravely down with a serious
face, felt their pulses, and after much heavy thought,
be ordered' them always to be blooded and to drink warm
water. Thereafter be departed from them. 'l' her.,
marvellous to tell all his patients grew wonderfully welt
in no long time, and they paid him much money for his
pains: When that his master returned, the knavery of
0 wlglass was soon discoiered, and he was fain to depart.

thereafter

book upon the virtue of warm water and blood-letting.....

ceived in the hope. that it will induee'the-two nations to,

i.eneounter any very bitter, factious hostility. The
second reading may fairly be accepted by all, for nearly
all agree in the principle of further reform in the repre-
sentation of the people in Parliament. After the asser-
tion of the principle, the committee will be deferred till`
after-Easter, and the,further items of the-budget, as the
L' most pressing business, will be proceeded Witb.—

COWHIDII4G 'AFFAIR.—A JUSTICE OF THE PEACE
COWHIDED.—On Saturday' last.. (says 'the Baltimore
Exchaagejiinian by the name of H. R. Pollock, hail-
ing from Washington,
went to
justice
office of Mr. Samuel
Loader, attorney at law, late of the peace, and,
drawing a paper from his pocket, desired the attorney
to sign it. -Pollock charged Lawder with having said
, .
something derogatory to the character of a certain lady,
and the article to be signed was to the effect that Lawder
_recanted everything that be had uttered. The request
of Pollock was declined by Lawder, whereupon the
farmer pulled. from under his coat a 'cowhide, and corn-'
L menced an attack upon the latter by. cutting him, over
the head. Lawder, however, turned out to bp the best
man: . He knocked his assailant down, and, getting hold
of the cowhide, gave him a pretty severe thrashing.
Pollock was arrested, and held to bail to answer the
assault, by Justice At'Kinley.
TheArnericans. have been well trained in the bragging
art, both by the,'English 'and French: They are as
aristocratic as the nobility of the one, and as republican
as the socialists of the other. They assert that all men are-
'free and equal. This is an abstract proposition; but, like
all general rules, it has exceptions. It means all wbite
men. Their Minister refused to sit beside the "Nigger"
Ambassador from Hayti at the Lord Mayor's table—be did
not recognise hi in as a hrotherl He said it was an insult to a
country which corisideredblacks as inferior beings, and held
them as slaves, and referred to Buxton, Wilberforce.
and Shaftestuiry, as authorities, as all three were stated
to have declined Matrimonial alliances for their daughters
with African princes. They boast that they are white
(an exultation no European understands) - that they are
-tree, which none but themselves comprehend ; and that
they are descended-from a nation. which they insult and
affect-to: despise. • Similarity of name with them ineatis
consatiguinity.;they boast that they are descended from
the 'best families in Great Britain, and have "good
blood.' They can, therefore, afford to ape humility
and talk of equality, because being on a level with the
English 'nobility- the can condescend to admit others to
their society- without_the risk of derogation from their own
1 importance. "'The English have-whipped all the world, 1
'and they have whipped the English." Thejr_supe-
riority is unquestionable: They.hare-the Trirgest rivers,.
,the highest bills, the widest prairies, the richest soil,
the fastest horses, the prettiest gals, the best nvOlvers,
cutest lawyers, peowerfullest preachers, and smartest
generals, that are to be found on the face of the airth ;
also clippers that beat all natur, steamers that streak it
off like iled lightning, and men that are half horse and
I half alligator, with a touch of the devil, and a cross of
1 the airthquake.—Sam Slick.
