About a fortnight since, as some men were engaged in
digging stones in a bog in the county of Waterford, they
discovered a kind of canoe, which, from its extraordi-
nary shape and rude workmanship, admits of little

oak tree, sufficiently large
.to bear up three persons,
being eight and a-half feet'. n length and two feet ten

woman in the neighbourhood of Hawarden, " while de-
livering a family lecture to one of her daughters, in a
paroxysm of passion, actually dislocated her lower face,
and her chin falling upon her liest, instantly paralyzed
all powers of further ejaculation !"—We hope this will
act as a warning to those Tory old women who are
addicted to incontinence of speech in Parliament. We
know of many who are so fond of using hard words, that'
we are surprised they have not already dislocated their
jaws, like the old lady of Hawarden.
