It is no uncommon thing for a member of presby-
tery in Scotland to hold forth extempore for two hours ; and
in the middle a psalm is sung to give the preacher breath.
We extract the following account of some remark-
able hot-springs in the province of Bona, from a letter re-
cently received from that place :—" About half a league
up the Seybouse beyond the campmf Medjez-el-Ammar, is
a small plain entirely covered with white cones, looking like
an Arab encampment, with fumes of vapour issuing from
some of them, and resembling smoke. The water, which
exits a strong sulphureous odour, boils up from the soil,
and deposits round the orifice of its escape the saline and
earthly particles held by it in solution, until by the accumu-
lation of circular layers a cone is formed over the hole, and
the passage of the water obstructed. The spring then
pierces for itself an exit in some other spot, and thus the
plain has become covered with these conical heaps. The
principal source is very remarkable. The water comes out
of a high rock, and deposits over its surface layers of matter
of snowy whiteness. When the sun shines on this magni-
ficent cascade, it produces all the prismatic colours of the
rainbow. The thermometer, when immersed in the water,
rises to 36 degrees Reaumur or 113 degrees Fahrenheit ;
and this great heat, added to its strong impregnation of
sulphur, renders the water exceedingly efficacious in cuta-
neous and rheumatic complaints. The Arabs attribute
supernatural powers to these springs, as appears from their
name, Hanzniainin 'skhoutin, signifying The Cursed Baths.
Tha Romans had erected here a magnificent building, and
the remains of columns, arches, &c., attest the care and the
taste with which they endeavoured to avail themselves of the
natural advantages of the place."
The Cosmorama, possessing attractions which must
be seen to be appreciated, has been re-opened in Regent-
street with subjects of high picturesque and historic in-
terest. The views present some fine architectural as well
as landscape scenery, the effect of which is much admired.

Yesterday afternoon, while the wife and family of a
man named William Woodman, a rakemaker, residing in
Windsor-street, Uxbridge, were at dinner, they were
alarmed by a noise in one of the attics, and on one of the
sons going up stairs to ascertain the cause he was horror
stricken at seeing his father hanging from a beam in the
eieling. He instantly raised an alarm, when, assistance ar-
riving, the miserable man, who had evidently been drinking,
was cut down in an almost lifeless state. On his reviving
the instant be opened his eyes he called out, " Oh, bring
me half a pint of beer," which being procured for him he
soon recovered. No cause can be assigned for his attempt-
ing self-destruction.
The hay harvest in this part of the country, notwith-
standing the length and severity of last winter, has been
completed in a very satisfactory manner, and green crops of
every description were never known to be in a more luxu-
riant condition at this period of the year. The price of
potatoes is considerably lower than fast Nears, the crops
being uncommonly good—a circumstance of considerable
importance to the working classes ; in short there is every
promise of abundant crops, and their being secured in sea-
sonable time.—Halifax Express.
