government, and Paez, after restoring order, had returned to

can state, on the best authority, that the cause of the separation
which has lately taken place between a celebrated literary

temper, neither party having any other cause of complaint.—

SCOTCH MEAT.—In the Taw material of divers
eatables, Dumfries-shire and Galloway have long ministered
to the multitudinous mouths of Lancashire and counties farther
south, including the great Babel itself. Steam conveyance,
in addition to many other marvels, is destined to become a
most efficient agent in counteracting gluts, and equalising
prices. At present the best bullocks, best calves, best sheep,
lambs, and porkers find their way to the south. But fashion
has its tides as well as the ocean, and highly as Scotch butcher-
meat is prized at present, the Cocknies, ere long, will be glad
to fall back on Lincolnshire roasts and Kentish wethers. The
steamers too, in the end, will do much more to mend than to
mar our markets.—Dumfries Courier.
A few days since the foundation of a watch-house
was laid down on the hill near Hastings, called Cuckoo Hill,
in doing which the proprietors thought proper to place some
silver, that is, one shilling, one sixpence, and a fourpenny
piece, together with some copper, under the first stone. Dur-
ing the night some industrious thief removed the work, and
walked off with the coins that had been deposited, in value not
quite two shillings.—Brighton Gazette.
Last week a couple presented themselves to be mar-

gown and walked away, leaving the parties to console them-
selves for their disappointment as best they could. --Kent Herald.
