A CAT AND AN ADDER.—A shepherd in the
upper part of Annandale was engaged one forenoon last
spring, in casting pests not very far from his own house.
His cat, probably for the sake of society, had accompanied
him, and his attention was drawn to her unusual move
m 4 ms while he was busily engaged in providing a supply
of warmth agatnt4 the cold nights of winter. On pro-
ceedingio the spot he discovered that pussy was en•
gaged in minal conflict with a large adder which she
had probably attacked at first in mistake for all eel. The
adder leaped at thecat with great bounds, sometimes going
over it by several f.-et; and the other kept standing en
its hind legs, striking its enemy on the head with the
claw, of its fore :eet. After this encounter had lasted
tor some tint..., the shepto rd became apprehensive of his
c t mill& bite from the hug+ of it.o serpent
toe, which he, disabled by a stroke from his spade.
Pu•sy immediately rushed upon the unfortunate adder,
and fiiiinished it in a most savage manner. /)ni u,TICS

thirty vessels, chitfly laden with rye, have arrived iron,
