THE ROSABIOND.—A laughable occurrence took
place in Alexandria a short time before her Majesty's
steamer Rosamond left that port. His Excellency Said
Pacha, the Lord High Admiral of the Egyptian fleet, is
very fond of visiting the British ships of war, and paid
a visit to the Rosamond. Every possible attention was
shown to the distinguished sailor, and he was on the
point of leaving, when, as if struck by a sudden thought,
he begged of Captain Foote to allow him to observe his
gun practice—pointing at the same time to a rock near
the lighthouse, whose apex was to form the target. The
wish was no sooner breathed than granted—the gun was
loaded, raised, and fired; the apex flew into smithereens
—and the headless rock remains a proof of British cor-
rectness in gun practice. The ship was one mile and a
half distant from the object fired at, and although his
Excellency much admired the precision of our men's
fire, they modestly attributed the result to accident. His
Excellency was satisfied with the one shot—he would
not permit a second to be fired.

CONFIRMED HABIT.—A. gentleman of excellent
habits and very amiable disposition was so unfortunate
as to have a wife of a very different character; in short,
one that would get beastly drunk. Being in company of
a few intimates one evening, one of them remarked
to him that if she was his wife—since
all other things had failed—he would frighten her
in some way, so that she would quit her evil habit;
and proposed the following method:—that some time,
when dead drunk, she would be laid into a box shaped like
a coffin, and left in that situation until her fit should
be over, and consciousness restored. A few even-
ings ago, the dame being in a proper state, the plan was
put in execution, and after the box lid had been properly
secured, the party before alluded to watched, each
in turn, to witness the result. About daylight next
morning the watcher hearing a movement, laid
himself down beside the box, when her lady-
ship after bumping her head a few times, was
heard to say, " Bless me! why, where am I?" The
?"
outsider replied in a sepulchral tone, " Madam, you
are dead and in another world." A pause ensued, after
which the lady inquired, " Where are you ?" " Oh I I
you
can't have
you
been een d
downead
her
am dead too," said he. " Can you tell me how long I've
b
you been dead ?" "Four months." "Well, el ,
longer

INSTITUTION FOR THE ADULT DEAF AND DUMB,
RED LION-SQUARE, BLOOMSBURY A meeting of the
subscribers and friends of this institution was held on
Thursday, in the chapel of the institution 26, Red Lion-
square, Bloomsbury. From the report
of the secretary,
Mr. J. G. Simpson, it appeared that the deaf and dumb
inmates can be taught either the trade of shoemaking or
tailoring in a space of time averaging three years. The
pupils are received from the different schools where they
have been educated, and they aro once placed under the
direction of well-qualified hearing masters to learn some
thoroughly useful trade, by the exercise of which they
can eventually sustain themselves with decency And com
fort. It was observed that eighteen individuals were now
under instruction, while about thirty more were sustained
or assisted weekly from the funds of the charity. The
institution, it appears, could greatly extend its beneficial
operations, did the funds permit, and an earnest hope
was expressed by the meeting that the affluent would
award their co-operation in furtherance of so good a
work,
