Air. 'Willis, in his interesting new work, " Inklings
of Adventure," gives one of the most vivid descriptions of the
Falls of Niagara that we ever remember to have read ; it is a
remarkable instance of the power that a skilful and graphic
writer possesses of conveying to the mind of his reader a scene
whichmight he supposed to be beyond the reach of the pen,
however successfully the pencil may have treated it. Mr.
Willis's style is singularly fresh and vigorous, and happily
adapted to the_subject he has chosen, namely, the unfrequented
scenes of his own young country, America.
ANOTHER VICTIM TO GAMBLING.—On Satur-
day last, a M. M--, residing in the Rue Transnonain, in
Paris, hung himself in his cravat, after losing 800 francs in a

The name of the Black Prince who has petitioned

jects may be allowed to purchase British merchandize in the
roadsteds of Cape Coast from Bristol and Liverpool merchants.
