The tiirnvike gates in all Scotland yielded, accor-
ding to a Parliamentary Paper, on an average of 1833,
1831, and 1835, about 250,000/. a year, the amount being
one good index to the increase of trade, by remembering
that there was a period not very remote when there were
no such things as turnpike gates.
On Sunday night there was a severe frost, .and to-
day we have had a Jell of snow from the east. In conse-
quence of the almost constant rains, the instances are ex-
tremely rare where the farmers have been able to sow their
wheat ; their potato ground is, for the most part, still un-
ploughed. The early settir', in of winter will have the
effect of throwing farm work very far behind. The Lond.on
mail to-day (Monday) was three quarters of an hour be-
hind its usual time of arrival. The cause of this was a
great fall of snow OQ the north part. of the line of road.—

LORD PE.MBROKE, THE HUMORIST.—Of all the
Mede-awl.:l;ersiati laws established in his house, the most
peremptory was, that any servant who once got. drunk should
be instantly discharged—no pardon granted, no excuse lis-
tened to. Yet an old footman, who had lived with him many
years, would sometimes indulge in a pot of ale extraordi-
nary, trusting to the wilful blindness which he saw assumed
when convenient. One fatal day even this could not avail.
As my Lord crossed the ball, John appeared in full view—
not rather tipsy, or a little disguised, but dead deurik, and
unable to stand. Lord P. went up to him : " !Ay poor
fellow, what ails you—you seem dreadfully ill; let me feel
your pulse. God bless us, he is in a raging /elver ; get him
to bed directly, and send for the apothecary The apothe-
cary came—not to be consulted, for his I,ordsbip was phy-
sician-general in his own fatally ; but 'to obey orders—to
bleed the patient copiously, clap a hugr blister on his back,
and give him a powerful dose of phyr.,ie. After a few days
of this treatment, when the fellow emerged, weak and wan
as the severest illness could have left him, Hah, honest
John, eried his master, " I am truly glad to see thee alive ;
you have had a wonderful escape, though, and ought to be
thankful—very thankful indeed. Why man, if I hr.d not
passed by and spied the conditim you were in, you would
have been dead before now. But John, John (lift; ug up
bis finger) no more of these fevers !"—Lord Whanaclife's
Lady Mary Wortley,
