pool, lest Saturday afternoon—a boisterous wind prevailing
at the time. The Daily Poet gives the following addition/
particulars :—The 800, which is eighteen months old, and -
called Torn Sayers,after the renowned pugilist, was strapped
in the barrow. Much curiosity was excited to see the
animal. Scores of glasses were raised, and when the head
of youag Tom was observed, with his eyes waneleringsibout,
as if anxious to know what was to become of him, the
chipping and cheering became very great. Having adjusted
the barrow, Blondin began to move apparently trampling
with the weight of his Iced. A gye was attached to the
barrow, and as it was let out by his assistant it by some
means or other got entangled after he had proceeded nue
thirty or forty feet. Blondiu halted, and the gye rope fa
to the ground. The heart became sick at looking at base.
People kept their breath, expecting every moment that
the gymnast, with " Tom Sayers " and the harrow, wadi
be precipitated into "the city of Pekin," or jet° thelake be-
low. Instantly Blondin's resolution was trikeo. He evidently
could not go on, and he began to move backward cautions*
and slowly. %1 oincu were terrified uif they WORD witness.
Mg an execution. A deep silence prevailed, which was
only broken when Blondin landed wifely on the platform.
Aiaiu the barrow was adjusted, and Blondin moved em
this time without a gye lope. Gradually he reached the
ceutre, and, after resting a short time, began to push his
load up th- iodine. The wind ,serned to impede him vary
much, aid it was really frightful to see the barrow roll husk
occasionally about a foot, as if lie who guided it had ant
sufficient strength to push it on another inch.

a small m.slollty aruungst that majority which had hitherto
in the House of Commons posed balls for the total

hewed that many churchmen were so much dissatisfied with
lie pr,sent law, that they had been glad to vote for total
