ArmARKAIII.E CircebibTAsce.—The Canada, which
arrived on the Bth inst. from New York, sailed on the 16th
Nuv. and it is a remarkable circumstance that this is the
third successive year the Canada has arrived at this port on
the Bth Dec. having sailed from New York at the tame
period in each year.—Liverpool Adm., list r.
A few days since, the workmen employed at Colonel
Cunningham's house, Newton, about two miles west
from Perth, turned up, in digging, several skeletons. One
of them was deposited in what seemed to have been a rude.
stone coffin, aithin which was found a coin, very mush de-
cayed, of Tiberius.
The Bury amtte says:—" lvcilnesday, some workmen
engaged in cimiing a vault in our churchyird, were sur-
prised Ly the squeaking of an animal which dropped floin
the roof of the dormitory and which, on inspection, proved
to be a bat—it appeared lifeless when laid hold of, but on
ing brought to the open air gradually recovered. This
eireunistance is singtearly remarkable, from the fact of
the vault having remained unopened fur the space of ten
yintrs and upwards, and no crevice or aperture being dis-
coverable in its thick ribbed walls, the creature harin,g. in
all probability, existed in this etinfined and tainted region
during the whole of that period."
WILL-1 RAINED Hons.—The market-place at St. Al-
bans was completely crowded last market-day in conse-
quence of an eccentric old farmer, who resides a few miles
off, entering it in a small car drawn by bur hngs, at a brisk
trot, amidst the acclamation of the people, which pace they
kept up a feW • times round the area of thn market-place;
and then were driven to the %Vail Pick-yard. and after
being unharnessed, were regaled with a trough full cf
beans and wash. A gentleman orient oil'ered SOL for the
coquilles it stood, and was indignantly refused. In about
two hours they Were re-liarneesed, the farmer again
monnted•the• car, and proceeded homeward, amidst the
plaudit* °Valet; multitude, for his ingenuity in having in
*ix month' thug. tr/tined so uncommon an aiiiinal for
drawing. .
