-In, JOHN ~FRAzunirc—The brig Renovation, of
Shields, commanded by Captain Edward Coward, who is said
to have seen Sir John Franklin's two ships on an iceberg
near Newfoundland in the spring of 1851, arrived at Ply-
mouth on the sth of January last from Port Daniel, in
Canada, and discharged a cargo of 312 loads of timber, 200
deals, and 10 fathoms of lathwood, on the North Wharf,
Sutton harbour, to Messrs. Bayly and Fox, timber mer-
chants. The Renovation left Plymouth on the 17th of the
same month for North Shields. During bis stay at Ply-
mouth Captain Coward was in daily intercourE3 with Mr.
William Mennie, druggist, Mr. Kibbey, ship chandler, Mr.
Gambill, szilmaker, to neither of whom, nor to the mer-
chants' clerks, or Custom-house officers, did he make men-
tion of Sir John Franklin's ships. Captain Coward is repre-
sented as a man of strict probity and integrity.

U. S. FACSTUE.—A. gentleman, speaking of Cin-
cinnati, says its most appropriate name is Ham-burgh of
America. " Yes," replied another, " I think it will be the
Neat-ropolis of the United States." The son of Quintius
Fabius Maximus advised his father to seize on a post, saying,
‘• It will only cost a few men." Fabius answered drily, "Will
you be one of the few ?" The Boston Post says that two
kinds of eggs are used in making the beverage called "I,9i°
and Jerry," namely, hen'f,, eggs and nutm-eggs.
