waited on a physician in great trouble about her
daughter. ‘6 What ails her?" said the doctor.
' Alas, doctor! I cannot tell; but she has lost
her humour, her looks, her stomach; her strength
consumes every day, so us we fear ahe cermet
live." " Why do you not marry her?" "Alas,
doctor! that we would fain do, and have offered
her as good a match as she could ever expect ;
but she will not hear of marrying." "la fhero
no other, do you think, that she would be con-
tent to marry ?" " Ah, doctor ! that is it that
troubles us ; for these is a young gentleman t%
doubt not she loves that her father and l can
never consent to." 66 Why, look you, madatn"
replies the Doctor gravely, (being among all his
books in his closet,) 64 then the case is this :
your daughter would marry one man, and you
would have her marry another : in all my books
I find no remedy for such a disease as this !"
In the case lately decided in the Scotch Court
of Session, the trustees of the late Earl of FivE,
in consequence of the general depreciation of
agricultural produce, agreed that Gill, a tenant,
should have a certain deduction from the rent
in his tack ; but doubtful of their powers, he
suspended a threatened charge for the tack iu
his lease, and the Court supported the tenant, to
the extent of the deduction previously agroed
upon. This decision is of some moment to the
tenantry of Scotland.

DAILY
Extracts from the Morning Papers, Dec. 6.

[MORNING POST.]
French Papers to the 4th instant reached us
last night by express. They are almost entirely
filled with the details of the entry of the Duke
'd'Artgouloetne into Paris on the 2d, and the
speeches addressed to him on that occasion.—
Laudatory as these were, none of them come up
with the eloquence, or rather the extravagance
of the Quolldienne, which commences an article
on the subject in the following matutier He
is in the midst of us, the Soldier of the Tro-
cadero!--the warlike Pacificator of Spain !—the
Love of the Army !—the Pride of the Country.!
true Son of France ! "—We extract from
the Monitetir at more sober account of the pro-
e eedings of the day, which the Constitutionnel
informs us were sullied by a wanton and
barbarous murder, conurated publicly by a
soldier of the Royal Guard, Within sight of the
Castle of the Tuileries. An individual, eager to
behold the march of the " Hero of France"
through the gardens, had attempted to mount
the wall of the terrace which runs along the
river, when he was rudely thrown down by' the
sentinel at.the top. A respectable young man,
or rather a boy of seventeen or eighteen, gene-
rously took the part of the stranger, who had
fallen hack on the pavement, and remonstrated
with the sentry on his violence, which had ex-
cited general displeasure among the spectators.—
The soldier threatened to shoot him if he did not
immediately retire. The youth stayed, the mus-
ket was fired, and the ball streak him down dead
on the spot., His body, after remaining two hours
on the pavement, exposed to the view of the mul-
titude,' was at iengthtaken up by the Commis-
sary of Police of the Quarter of the Tuileries,
before whom several eye-witnesses had been to
make their depositions. The assassin was then
arrested by the Garden Guard, and the Duke of
Angouleme having been informed of the unfortu-
nate event, expressed the deepest regret at
its occurrence. The same Paper states,
that the Parish Priest who christened a child
for whom Mr. Manuel stood good-father, had
since uLceived an order from the Bishop
of Meaux, to retire from his Diocese.
