FALKIRK.—A HEARTY COCK.—There is,
or was the other day, a small Bantam, belonging to a per-
son here, which exhibited propensities of quite a novel
nature for one of the gallinaceous tribe ; and as an orni-
thological curiosity, shows what singular habits even birds
may acquire. Whether it was accidentally at first we do
not know, but by some means a glass of whiskey had fallen
in its way; and instead of despising the prize—like its
brother in the fable with the precious stone—the little fel-
low made free with the liquor. Ever since his taste has
been improving, and like any other tippler, he BOOR be-
came a " seasoned cask." It frequently sits at its glass
upon a table, and empties it of undiluted spirits. On such
occasions, it is amusing to see the excitement of his game
spirit, and what metal he displays. With a clapping of
the wings and a loud crow, he would spur and peck at
one's hand ; and if his favourite dose was not repeated,
would cackle forth the " hen's march," and stagger out
to the yard, where he reigned "cock of the walk."—
Scotsman.

Tile following distressing and fatal accident
happened on Monday se'ennight, to HUNTER CAMBRIDGE,
son of Mr. JOHN CAMBRIDGE, of Hartlepool, boat-builder
and innkeeper. Having gone out alone in a small coble
fur the purpose of shooting sea fowl, he was observed,
when behind Hartlepool pier, to stand up and fire, and
immediately to fall backward on the stern part of the
coble, and the boat having heeled, be slipped into the
water, and it darting from him, he was carried by the eb •
hing tide farther into the sea. In this unfortunate pre•
dicament, the young man swam after the coble, but being
unable to reach it he turned towards the shore, and was
within forty yards of the projecting rocks, when, being
encumbered with his heavy shot belt, and probably be-
numbed with cold, he sank exhausted, and perished in sight
of his afflicted father and four or five other persons, who
were unable to render any assistance. His body was
found about six hours afterwards. HusiTEK CAMBRIDGE
was a fine young man, about 111 years of age.--Edin-
